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.)514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8DNecFJph

Hamilton: ...How long have you known?514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4u9vcWwJWc

Eliza: A month or so.

Hamilton: Eliza, you should have told me. 514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJZSgq9LMv

Eliza: I wrote to the general a month ago-514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs23cCGw3mJ

Hamilton: No.514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe2phll4hNx

Eliza: I told him to send you home. 514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDTKNrFdDQu

Hamilton: (quieter) You should have told me...514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6maebyUwYE

Eliza: Well, I'm not sorry. I knew you'd fight until the war was done-514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGa85GNIWGN

Hamilton: (muttering) The war's not done...514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzrgBqYlxxQ

Eliza: (continuing) But you deserve a chance to meet your son. You don't know how lucky we are to be alive right now. 514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9IZ8ki6C8

Hamilton: (bitter) Will you relish being a poor man's wife? A poor man unable to provide for you? For a child?514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPsSNlXKckM

Eliza: I relish being your wife. 514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLoRFeKzxIM

(There is a moment of silence as Hamilton looks at Eliza in surprise)514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCyW6EbXg8

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? 514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKlVjoBbtBf

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. 514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWyeMEzB9r

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...514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUuo01Eai3R

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.)514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ96D3yqhLMU

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