Un-musical it - That Would Be Enough (Hamilton)

(Hamilton enters stage left to find Eliza sitting on a bench. She stands to greet him, her stomach swollen. She is pregnant.)337Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqSGNZWmbNO

Hamilton: ...How long have you known?337Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkoOizioPvO

Eliza: A month or so.

Hamilton: Eliza, you should have told me. 337Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9NFbn8W81U

Eliza: I wrote to the general a month ago-337Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnK9X1YdKy

Hamilton: No.337Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcjyv6gKgiY

Eliza: I told him to send you home. 337Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGIRKXuHjvX

Hamilton: (quieter) You should have told me...337Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVqGe0MsFm7

Eliza: Well, I'm not sorry. I knew you'd fight until the war was done-337Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTpVSL7Js2U

Hamilton: (muttering) The war's not done...337Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi69fnzE6gJ

Eliza: (continuing) But you deserve a chance to meet your son. You don't know how lucky we are to be alive right now. 337Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOwB98bU7W

Hamilton: (bitter) Will you relish being a poor man's wife? A poor man unable to provide for you? For a child?337Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrEhbMKX87

Eliza: I relish being your wife. 337Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hx2TzBAuY

(There is a moment of silence as Hamilton looks at Eliza in surprise)337Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6EzQWJENo8

Eliza: Look around. Look at where you are. Look at where you started. You used to be an immigrant from a place no one knew about, trying to gain an education in a place you weren't respected. Now, you write for General Washington, a man who is going to bring us independence. How can anyone not respect you now? 337Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjthb8FyxGN

Not to mention, the fact that you're alive is a miracle. You've lived twice as long as expected. Just please, stay alive, that would be enough.

And if this child has a fraction of your smile or a fragment of your mind, (laughs) look out world! That would be enough. 337Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZgSDMS9JH

I don't pretend to know the challenges your facing, the worlds you create and erase in your mind. But I am not afraid. I know who I married. I don't need you to be famous or the most successful man in America, just as long as you come home at the end of the day, everyday...that would be enough.

We don't need a legacy. We don't need money. And if I can grant you peace of mind...if you can let me inside your heart...337Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbSzOKm4KC

There will be a narrative written about you one day. Let me be a part of it. Let this moment be the first chapter, the one where you decide to stay...

Oh, and I could be enough! And we could be enough. That would be enough...

(Lost in the moment, Eliza looks at Hamilton again. He is crying. Another beat, and they embrace.)337Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wDs6Y8aqe

I just realized that this muscial might not be the best for my non-American readers...
