The Tranquilizer

PART 1: NIGHT Inspired by the frustration of another night of sleeplessness, Aurora empties her handbag onto a mound of clothes that, over the course of the past three days, has started to make its home on an armchair by her bed. She fishes a crumpled piece of paper from an assortment of objects - a notebook, sticky notepads of various gaudy neon colours, calming remedies, breath mints.
