(Soft acoustic music. The camera shows the brother
packing his backpack while the family prepares for the trip.)
Brother (in reported speech):
Mom said we were going to visit Grandma on the farm that weekend. Dad said he
hadn’t been to the farm for years. My sister said she was excited to see the
animals again, and Grandma said she had prepared an apple pie for our arrival.
(He looks at his sister, who joins the narration while
folding clothes.)
Sister (in reported speech):
Grandpa said the weather had been perfect for harvesting, and our cousin said
he had already packed his camera for the trip. Mom said she thought Grandma’s
farm was the most peaceful place on Earth. Dad said he would drive early in the
morning to avoid traffic, and my brother said he couldn’t wait to feed the
chickens. Grandma said she hoped we didn’t forget our boots this time.
(The siblings laugh. The camera pans to the packed
suitcases and the car keys on the table.)
🚗 Scene 2 – Flashback:

(Everyone laughs as the scene fades out to cheerful music
and a view of the car driving off into the morning light.)
🌅 Closing (Voice-Over)
(Soft instrumental music returns. The siblings speak
alternately.)
Brother (reflective):
That weekend turned out to be one of the best we’d ever had.
Sister (smiling):
And when we told our friends what everyone had said—
Both (together):
—we realized that every word carried a bit of love, laughter, and the smell of
Grandma’s apple pie.
(Fade out with gentle countryside sounds and birds
singing.)
