A MONTH IN THAILAND

- Have you found it? - Yes, in the trousers...

We have to get a bottle of wine or something,

like last time.

I'm afraid I'll be a while.

I'll take a shower and then you can stay as long as you like.

What's up?

Home, hanging around...

No.

OK... Let's go to Mega.

Come on, that's far away and also crowded.

You want to shop for the whole year?

Fine, then see you soon.

Yes. I'll shower and I'll be right there.

No, that's OK, don't worry.

Fine... OK, Bye.

What did he want?

Alex, wants us to go to the supermarket.

You could get an aftershave or something, from there.

- An aftershave? - Yes, I know he would use it.

What about something more special?

Doesn't he have a hobby?

Trust me, I know him. I've always got him that.

Alright, if you say so...

If it's not something useful, he won't like it.

- I've got you something, too. - What's the occasion?

Today's the 31st...

Our nine months anniversary.

Oh, yeah.

Thanks, but I haven't bought you anything.

That's OK. It's for both of us.

- You like it? - I do.

- I love you. - I love you, too.

OK, you've had enough.

Mick, I have to walk him.

- I can manage. - Wait, I'll give you a hand.

Leave me alone, I'm not crippled.

OK. Have it your way.

We have to go to my place, so I can change.

We'll do it. Is Anca's back?

No, she'll be back on the fourth.

No! Get down! Stop!

Mick! No!

Don't! Get down! Come here!

Sorry.

Come here! Get home now!

Bad dog!

It's gonna be fine. The place's nice too.

Sure, but then we'll go and party like there's no tomorrow.

Of course...

But I need to check with Adina first. I have to make it up to her.

Why? Did you fight?

No. On the contrary, she's always spoiling me.

This way.

Get her a pig.

- What? - Yes, a pig.

- A guinea pig? - No, a pig... pig.

I know somebody that got one. No kidding.

Alive?

Yes, a regular pig, but for homes.

It's clean and proper. And next year for Christmas you can eat it.

Yes, for sure.

I was thinking about going on a vacation in Thailand with her.

Just what I was about to say.

Why Thailand of all places?

- Because it's nice. - Yes, it is.

Normal places are no longer enough for you?

Like an all-inclusive at the countryside?

Yeah...

The plane ticket's expensive, about a 1000 euro.

But with 100 Euro you stay in a hut on the beach for a month.

Food's cheap...

So are the women.

- Where are the almonds? - What?

I have to buy some raw almonds.

I think we've past them. They're near the sweets.

Hang on. Watch this, OK?

Where did you go, man?

- Around here... - Where?

What if someone took this?

Who the hell would steal your plant?

Plant thieves. They steal them and smoke them.

I still don't know what to get him.

Get him anything, but let's go.

Why give someone an aftershave for a present? It's just weird.

Who's a cute dummy? Is it you?

Ready.

No, Mick. You're staying here.

- What? - Thank you.

What for?

For the present and for coming with me.

Yes?

Yes, mummy, it's us.

Hi.

- Happy Birthday! - Happy Birthday! All the best!

Come on, get in, the stake is getting cold.

Sorry. It was crowded at the supermarket.

Let's see, what is it?

Tear it open.

But it's such a nice wrapper.

It was Radu's idea.

Thank you. Thank you children.

Leana, let's roll some dice!

I thought you played chess...

I play chess too, when Doru drops by.

But backgammon is my expertise.

I've beaten a few guys in my days.

Come in now, take your seats.

We haven't decided yet. We might be tired afterwards.

I remember we once went to Caciulata for the New Year's.

It was a big thing to get tickets during the holidays.

We're going to Thailand around March. It's a present from Radu.

What's gotten into you?

- What do you mean? It's a vacation. - Why Thailand, of all places?

She's afraid you might get in trouble around there.

Don't worry. Leave them, they'll be just fine.

It's far and dangerous. Why not Greece or Turkey?

It's not dangerous at all. Lots of people go there.

Why do I only hear about sickness, hunger and earthquakes?

Nonsense. It's a very fashionable tourist destination.

We'll show you on the internet. It's all very nice.

- Isn't it expensive? - Not really. It's cheaper than here.

The plane ticket is a bit more expensive...

- Even if you buy it early? - It doesn't matter.

Even if you get it last minute.

They've got a special offer.

Thank you, that's enough.

- There you go. - Thank you!

I'm surprised Adina would go to such an exotic place.

She didn't want to go to Singapore...

- What do you mean? - Come on, dad...

What was it? Tomasek, Temasek... their Politechnic University.

She was accepted at a master there

being a good student,

having good grades...

It wasn't a master's study, it was just a scholarship.

Scholarship, that's it, but for five months.

- Two or three years ago... - Four.

Everything was covered, rent, food, hundreds, thousands dollars.

- Sure, millions... - Anyway, their kind of dollars.

Just to go there and study.

- And? - And she didn't go.

Why get an international diploma?

The South Pole would have been closer...

Swimming pools, volley courts, tennis courts,

opportunities to travel...

Like I was going God knows where, all by myself.

It wasn't just a professional opportunity.

She could have seen how others lived.

Like I care how Chinks or whatever live their lives.

We told her she was missing an opportunity, but...

That's Adina, she likes practical things...

- We just hope she doesn't regret it. - We prefer having her close to us.

- More peas? - No, thank you.

Just a little.

No, thank you.

Damn. She always locks twice.

I'll be a second.

Are you changing here?

I was thinking of changing at your place.

Why waste time? Aren't we coming back here anyway?

Are we staying here? I'll get dressed then. I'll be quick.

- Have you heard about Smara? - No. Hear what?

She broke up with Vivi and hooked up with his brother.

- No way! - Yeah...

But Vivi's brother was going out with what's-her-name.

Apparently not anymore.

Are they both coming tonight?

Don't think so...

- How do the brothers get along? - No idea, I'm also wondering.

- What's that thing over there? - It's a small wardrobe.

I bought it for us. So I can keep my clothes at your place.

You were away so I brought it here, then I forgot about it.

- Couldn't you keep them in mine? - You know your wardrobe is stacked.

But you don't have that many clothes there.

Precisely because of that.

I wonder where we could squeeze it in.

There's room by the desk, I measured it.

Cool.

We'll take it tomorrow when we leave.

Could you bring me the eyeliner and mascara from the purse?

Better yet, bring me the whole purse.

What your father said... about that scholarship...

What about it?

How come you didn't go?

It just wasn't tempting enough.

Why?

It didn't seem important for me to go to Singapore.

Why do you ask?

Just curious.

You were with Robert back then, right?

Does it matter?

Couldn't you both apply for the same scholarship?

He found something here and didn't want to go.

That's why you didn't go?

Not only that.

In your place, I would've gone alone.

I'm sure.

- What do you mean? - I mean you could have gone on your own.

I couldn't.

- Or didn't you want to leave Robert alone? - Yes, sure.

- It was that too, right? - Why are we talking about this?

So that's it!

There's no point in talking about what happened long ago.

Why not leave him on his own?

It was only for five months.

God knows what he would have done alone in five month's time!

Like what?

I know better.

That won't stop me from having kids.

I won't live forever in that flat.

- You have to think ahead. - I have enough to think about.

We'll talk again soon.

Wait for Raluca to get ideas.

Stop it with the nonsense.

My gran has a house in the suburbs.

It's a dump, but the land is important.

The area started to grow.

But it's a long way to the center.

Mister knows.

A fair bit, depending on the traffic.

You turn on Vladimirescu St, then take the 13th of September St.

With no traffic you can make it in five minutes.

- And with traffic? - Then... you stay home!

You build a swimming pool and spend your day there.

Build a pool where? In the suburbs?

There's room for it.

You wouldn't mind your own pool in the summer.

Just what I needed, a swimming pool!

If you're OK with your neighbors seeing you naked.

You build up a tall fence and the problem's solved...

Just like the snobs moving in villas, in the suburbs.

When they look out the window, all they see is a concrete wall.

Big deal! There's not much to see anyway.

That if you don't mind having fences like in prison.

Add some barbed wire and you got yourself a prison.

Hey. Get up! What's happened to you?

Someone call an ambulance! A girl fainted!

Quickly.

Does she have a pulse? Is she breathing?

I think she's coming to. She must be epileptic.

- You should bite her finger. - No, she'll be fine.

She just needs to rest.

They're calling right now.

Hurry!

Come on, everything's fine.

- You've been smoking. - One cigarette.

- Are you OK? - Yes. You?

Money talks, money talks. It lifts you up, it strikes you down

Everything's in its hands Money talks...

Money talks, money talks

Ten! Nine! Eight! Seven!

Six! Five! Four! Three!

Two! One! Happy New Year!

Happy New Year! I love you.

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!

Nadia!

Nadia!

Nadia! Come with us!

No use in wondering why, baby. If you don't know it by now.

No use in wondering why, baby it wouldn't matter any more

When your rooster crows at the breaks of dawn

Look out your window and I'll be gone

You're the reason I'm traveling on

Alex and Raluca say we should go with them.

- Do you want to? - You don't?

You know I'm not crazy about it.

But it's New Year's! We should have a good time.

Aren't you having a good time with me?

Please don't take it like that.

You can go, but I'm going home.

Come on! Don't get started.

Then let's have a good time together.

We could be together at the party too.

- Everything OK? - Yes.

Taste this one, it's delicious. It has celeriac.

I can't have a good time in a place like that.

You don't even know the place.

How do you know you won't like it?

Is it wrong I want to spend time with you and not waste it in clubs?

I was just saying you don't even want to try it.

There's nothing to try.

I want to spend this time with you so both of us can enjoy it.

Is it too much to ask?

No... If you won't like it, there's no point...

It'll be our special night. You'll like it.

OK.

Really?

Great!

I love rain and flowery shirts,

I don't answer to name calling.

A trifle can raise my hopes up,

I bow and weigh up all that's sacred and all that's fleeting.

The fear of being honest weighs heavy on our shoulders...

But how many times, my friends,

have we smiled with sadness,

When hopes seemed misleading,

Deceit and folly hid their bliss,

We are sick of empty words, of books and sensational films,

With vampires, kings and corpses, with village fair stars.

The rain that will come...

What are you doing here, all alone?

I've just come out for a bit.

Didn't you say you wouldn't drink?

I'll leave the car here.

You know how hard it is to find a cab.

We'll find one...

What's wrong?

Nothing.

Have I said something I shouldn't have?

Tell me. I can see you're upset.

I am sorry I've upset you.

- If you want, we'll go to the party. - We're not going anywhere.

There's no point in going on like this.

What do you mean?

There's no point in staying together.

I don't think there's enough between us... to keep us together.

What do you mean?

There is enough between us.

I love you...

There's no reason for us to break up. What's gotten into you?

We love each other, you just don't realize it.

It would be stupid for us to break up.

I'm sorry... I care about you, but...

I don't think that's enough.

I didn't want it to happen like this...

Not here... Not now...

Why would you want this?

I gave you everything, I've done everything for you!

- I know, but it's not about that. - What is it about then?

Nothing specific...

I simply believe this is the best... for both of us...

We haven't spent enough time together, I know...

But you'll see, you'll realize we're made for each other.

Don't ruin everything now. Give us another chance.

Have I done something wrong? Tell me!

- Have I said something I shouldn't have? - No...

Then what is it? And why now? Why today?

Please, just think about it. Don't ruin everything.

There's nothing to think about.

I told you I care about you.

In a way... yes, I do love you.

I thought we were a good match, but...

I no longer feel that way.

It's more honest this way.

Honest? You call this honest?

That retarded called you or what? She wants you to fuck her?

Calm down. No one called.

You think I didn't see you looking when that guy shouted her name?

You think I'm stupid?

Calm down, please... I wasn't looking anywhere.

- Then who are you fucking? - I'm not fucking anybody...

You don't want to fuck her, but you want us to break up...

- Fuck off! - Stop it!

You asshole! Shame on you!

Everything OK?

Hi.

Can you help Adina get to the bathroom?

I'm not going to any bathroom!

Get the fuck out of my life!

I don't want to see you or hear about you ever again!

Why the long face?

We're talking here, give us a sec.

OK, bro'. Where's Toma?

- I don't know. Find him yourself. - What a hater.

Look, there he is.

Even Ducu says you should come with us.

I get it, really. But it's New Year's, cheer up.

Yeah...

It's not like I don't care about her.

It's just that... I don't know.

You could have waited a day or two, not mess her whole year.

Yes I know. It just happened...

- Anyway, she was upset with me too. - Really?

I turned when someone called for Nadia, earlier.

And she saw me looking...

- So? Was it Nadia? - No. 'Course it wasn't.

I kept hoping something would change...

It's not like I get on perfectly with Raluca.

But... You have to make compromises a bit.

You do, of course.

You want... a lady in public, a perfect cook and a whore in bed.

That combo doesn't exist.

I know... But I want someone more...

chill, spontaneous, not so uptight...

You know better.

We'll go to the party and everything's gonna be alright.

I don't think so, I'm not in the mood.

You guys know the joke? This guy at the slots... Dead funny.

We need another car, there's not enough room for all of us.

We'll take this one and you suckers can take the next.

Ducu, you're coming with us.

It was an old Dacia, no power steering, no ABS...

You know the hoods of the old cars, they open backwards

and I was keeping it open to ventilate the engine.

And when I hit the brakes, the hood rolled over...

And flew straight into the guy's windshield, blew it to pieces.

Convertible Dacia... A model not on the market yet...

What's up with her?

- I don't know her. Who is she? - Stop it!

Did your folks beat you up?

Rise and shine!

I was thinking about Ducu's hood.

- Pull up on the alley? - No, here is just fine.

Heere, heere...

- Hi, how are you? - I'm alright. You?

Fine.

Where's Adina? All alone?

- Yes. - How so?

Did you break up?

- We kinda did. - I'm sorry.

Maybe it's for the best. Who knows?

What's up with you? Cheer up!

Sorry...

Do you mind?

I'll get up if you want.

How much longer do I have to rub against you before you notice me?

We're not doing anything.

I know. But it's not the right time.

I'm sorry.

- What's up? - I'm not staying, I'm off.

Come on, don't be a dickhead.

There's no point, I'm not in the mood.

The night is still young...

I know, but I've had enough. I'm going home.

We're all leaving anyway, party's over here.

You're still thinking about Adina?

You took a decision.

Yes.

It's funny that someone called her name.

Whose?

Nadia's. Someone called her at midnight. I told you.

There's more Nadias in the world.

Nadia Comaneci for example.

I thought I saw her today at the supermarket.

Who? Nadia Comaneci?

Maybe you saw Nadia Comaneci and didn't realize.

Why didn't you ask her for an autograph?

I've just called her, but her phone is off.

She's in America... probably asleep right now.

Actually, it's earlier there.

She's getting ready for the new year.

You realize it's still last year for her?

- Whatever... - OK, sorry. Tell me about Nadia.

I thought I saw her at the supermarket.

And I think maybe it's a sign.

A sign for what?

I don't know... That I gave up on her and I shouldn't have.

Gave up on who? Nadia or Adina!

Nadia, man!

I called her, but her phone is off.

There's nothing you can do about it. We're going to The Ark.

It will take your mind off this.

I have to get to her somehow...

You want to find Nadia now, tonight?

Listen, what are you on, exactly?

You really are something...

Anyway, she's not picking up. See you.

Excuse me...

I've changed my mind. Go to Cosbuc, to The Ark.

Actually no. I've changed my mind again.

Go to Popa Nan.

Sorry.

Can I get in to look for someone?

You have to pay.

- How much? - One hundred.

Just five minutes.

Have you seen Nadia?

I don't think she's here, I would've seen her.

Everything OK?

Happy New Year!

Radu!

- How are you? - Out smoking. You?

- Changed your mind? - Yes.

I didn't want to be alone on the New Year's.

You know the saying... Alone tonight, alone all year round.

Precisely.

- Alex? Raluca? - They're downstairs.

We're coming in a minute.

Why didn't you answer the phone? I called you.

I saw Nadia around. She was with Miruna, by the toilets.

I can't find her.

Hi, this is Radu.

Happy New Year to you too!

Fine. At the Ark.

I know, Alex told me. I've just missed you.

Is Nadia with you?

Can you pass her over, I want to talk to her.

Yes...

No...

Do you mind letting her decide that?

Well, it's her business if she wants to or not.

- Are you OK? - Get up! We're going to Fabrica.

How do we get there? There's so many of us.

Four, six, nine, with Radu ten.

We need three cars.

Are you coming?

Don't start again. You said it's New Year's and you'd have a blast.

- I'm coming. - That's the spirit.

What's the deal?

There's no deal.

Then what's wrong?

I screwed up.

But you told me yourself you didn't love her anymore.

I was talking about Nadia.

I broke up with the only woman I liked.

You don't say.

I called Miruna, but she hung up.

I really have to find her.

Are you serious?

Think about it,

she might be with someone else.

And why now? You're not getting married today.

- I don't know... I just feel this... - Drop it.

Listen: tomorrow morning I promise I'll bring her to you.

But just forget about her for a few hours and have fun.

Kind of stupid though... Break up with one

and get back with the ex... All in one night. It's a soap opera.

I don't think so.

Are you coming? We're walking there.

Let's go.

- At the Myth Busters. - They did the re-enactment.

All those shows are propaganda, even Discovery.

The hell they are... The Party's right hand!

Prove me wrong.

The whole landing on the Moon was a hoax, bro'.

It's all directed. They were shitting themselves.

- All shot in a studio, right? - Yeah, man, they hired Kubrick to do it.

Then Kubrick was a lousy director ...if he let all that shit behind.

He made mistakes and people started to speculate.

Did you see A Space Odyssey?

Did you see any mistakes there?

Give me a break.

- I spoke with her on the phone. - What did she say?

Not much, she was crying...

I see...

I wanted to check her, to see if she's OK...

- Sagittarius. - That's a strange combination...

It's not bad, but weird.

Do you know your ascendant?

After your thirties, the ascendant becomes stronger.

So, you're turning into a Capricorn.

How do Sagittarius get along with Virgo?

I don't really know... They're opposite signs...

- Hey. - Hello.

- This is how you have fun on New Year's? - Yes.

- Emilia. - Radu. Nice to meet you.

- I'm Cristina.

Oh... Sorry. I forgot to make the introductions.

They're colleagues of mine. Friends, I mean.

- It's freezing. - And Virgo's?

- Where are you taking us? - To the beach...

I can't get this out of my head...

Can I please have a cig?

- Come on, man! - Wait a second.

Are you kiddin' me? Those guys are fucking!

- Where? - There, at the window!

Come here, there's a couple fucking at the window!

I'll be... They're three! There are two chicks, man!

Someone who knows how to have fun on New Year's!

- What does this suppose to mean? - You know damn well what I mean...

We all know what you mean.

You should tell Raluca, maybe she'll get it.

Keep trying! Maybe you'll succeed!

It's all your fault. You've aligned your chakras or something.

Why do all men want to have a threesome with two women...

And not one would accept it the other way around?

Because men want women to sacrifice themselves for them.

What about the female emancipation, then?

If you ever break up with Alex I'm ready to sacrifice myself.

In fact, no need to break up, I like his smooth pale skin.

Ducu, wait a second, I forgot to...

I don't think she knew all these things at the time.

She simply followed her heart.

Like someone in love.

But someone in love has to think a bit about the consequences.

For example, at her parents.

You're saying, that if you're in love...

you have to sacrifice yourself for the loved one?

I'm saying that she probably did all this out of love for him.

And I don't think it was that simple for her.

Not too complicated either. She just let herself carried away.

I don't think so.

She could've had an abortion but she didn't.

Because she was in love with him, that's why.

It's obvious that being a single mum is the complicated option.

If she had got carried away, she would've had the abortion.

It's like saying that every woman who loves...

should foolishly sacrifice herself for a man.

But this thing happens to men, too.

Love is like a spell that doesn't let you think straight.

What really matters in a relationship is respect and compatibility.

I'm not so sure...

I don't think we fall in love every day.

And we don't have to lose our heads just like that.

So you're saying that if you fall in love with a guy and he says:

"let's go to Patagonia", you go because you love him?

It depends.

If I really love him and the feeling's mutual, why not?

In fact, I've actually done it...

What do you mean?

I mean it happened just like that.

I met a Spanish guy in Berlin

and when he had to go back to Spain

I left college and everything behind and I went with him.

I didn't believe myself capable.

- When were you in Spain? - Last year, in Barcelona.

And for how long? I didn't know about this.

I didn't stay long, 2 or 3 months. The whole thing just faded away...

He got bored rather quickly

and suddenly I became a burden.

- At least you didn't get pregnant. - No, thank God!

But it could have happened.

I knew she was insane, so that doesn't surprise me.

You mean "in love". Other than that, I'm quite sane.

I hadn't done anything like that before

and I didn't think I would.

But why did it end so quickly?

It just did.

The guy was a bit special, so to say.

He was a sort of a Zen monk, he went around monasteries.

What do you mean?

In Berlin I had some artist friends who were living in a squat.

That's how I met him.

In Spain we would live wherever we could.

...relatives,

once even at a monastery.

You went to Spain even though you had no place to live?

And I had already spent all my Erasmus money.

So we were left with nothing!

We would go out almost every night and...

Sometimes I came back alone because... he'd find some other girl.

Really? So you just packed up and left?

Not really.

Because at first I said: OK, I don't care,

he wants to have it wild, fine.

I'll try to understand him and offer him the freedom he needs.

But as time went by, he would vanish more and more often...

What did I say?

So, at one point it had become clear

there was nothing more between us...

I got pissed off

and I asked him for money

for the plane ticket!

And that was it!

He got me the money, end of story.

Plus, my last night there

I slept on a bench in the station.

Really? In the train station?

Are you sure you're not lacking a bit upstairs?

These Geminis...

I know, it's not something I'm proud of.

No, thanks.

- Santa Claus! - Thanks.

I did what I thought right at the time.

People make mistakes.

They do, but you were kind of looking for it.

I guess you can say that.

I've probably lost the enthusiasm I had last year.

But I don't think I've become a pessimist either.

If all this hadn't happened, maybe I would have been more safe.

But I would have kept wondering... what if...

It sucks just to try not to get hurt holding on to your illusions...

I prefer my illusions to sleeping in train stations at night...

It's not too pretty, I agree...

Maybe it seemed right at the time, but you didn't think about it much...

I guess...

Let's go outside.

Really, I don't understand why you're doing this.

I wanted to talk to you.

I believe we've said everything there was to say...

I won't bother you much, I promise.

I don't see where you're getting at. What's left to say?

- Hello. Is Paul around here? - Paul who?

Paul, dude. The guy that was just here five minutes ago.

You think I'm doing this just for the sake of it?

I have no idea. But, honestly, I don't think I care.

- I'm telling you I'm not. - As I said, "I don't think I care".

It's all the same anyway.

But I really do have something important to tell you.

I don't see what's that got to do with me.

I'm asking you, let's go outside.

I called you earlier. Your phone was off.

It was a shitty time... Everything was stuck.

If I hadn't made that deal I would've had to move back home.

That's not an excuse.

But sometimes you have other priorities.

I had no spare time.

I barely had time to finish it in time.

So?

You had your share of work too. With that NGO...

- I don't see the point of talking... - You had all sorts of ideas...

What's the NGO got to do with anything?

I think it does.

You were busy, too, and I wanted to leave you to it.

Are you kidding? It's all in your head.

I was making time to spend with you.

Anyway, I was down too...

I felt we didn't have time for each other.

Everything had become routine.

I don't remember it that way, but if that's the way you see it...

You called me here

to tell me how fucked up our relationship was?

No.

Why are you telling me this?

Haven't you fucked this up enough?

That's not what I meant...

Then tell me. What's the point? You called me here to do what?

- I called you here... - To justify yourself?

Thanks, there's no need. I passed that period.

It's not that...

What is it then? It seems you want to dig up the past.

What I want to explain...

Explain what? Isn't it a bit late?

We've had tons of explanations, what else is there to explain?

I'm trying to tell you something...

that is important for me.

What?

I'm trying to explain why I did what I did.

Why?

Because I was wrong.

What do you mean, you were wrong?

I mean I made a mistake and I don't know...

what to do... to fix it.

Fix what?

You'll think I'm a major asshole...

But I didn't realize it at the time...

What are you talking about?

I mean...

you're the one I've felt the happiest with...

Excuse me?

- That's the truth... - What do you mean that's the truth?

Do you realize what you're saying?

Are you making fun of me?

No.

Then what?

All I can say is...

I didn't realize it before, but... it's you I need.

I think you're way off course.

- I'm not. - Then how can you say such things?

I was sure I had to leave things as they were, but...

I realized that... I need you!

You don't say!

So what? Does that wipe away what happened?

No, of course not.

But I broke up with Adina because I was thinking of you.

I realized I needed you, not her.

And I'm being very serious now.

Do you realize how selfish you are?

You talk like the sun is spinning around your needs.

It wasn't fair to you, I know.

But at the moment... I thought I was doing the right thing.

It wasn't fair? I'll tell you what wasn't fair.

Like... that months afterwards I thought it was my fault!

That I did something wrong! That I'm too ugly! Too skinny!

That maybe I'm not smart enough!

That maybe I was boring you, fuck it! That wasn't fair!

I didn't mean to give you that impression.

I told you what seemed true at the time.

That it was all becoming routine...

The routine was our problem?

We were only together for two years!

Do people get bored so easily?

I think your selfishness was the problem!

You were only doing whatever made you happy.

I can't believe the nerve!

What you thought was right at the time?

But how capricious you get!

Do you have any idea how long I thought about what you said then:

That "you don't think you love me anymore"?

How much hope the word "think" gave me?

It left a small chance,

that maybe you still loved me.

How long it took me to realize

that you were just being polite?

And you don't know how many times I woke up crying...

Thinking we're no longer together.

That I love you and you don't give a shit!

And now the "moment" is different!

You've reached another conclusion!

I don't give a shit about your conclusions.

I don't need any conclusion, thanks!

You don't think you could love me again?

Fuck off, you selfish bastard!

I don't ever want to see you again!

I love you.

- Get your hands off me! - Forgive me.

Go away! Let go of me!

Forgive me. Nadia.

I thought I saw you this morning at the supermarket.

- At the supermarket? - Yes.

- I wasn't at the supermarket today. - You weren't?

No.

I thought it was you.

Are you sure it was today?

Today, around eleven.

I was doing the shopping.

Then it was just an impression.

Hey! Come back here!

Hey! I'll kill you!

Let's go!

Are you crazy, woman?

Listen...

What's the deal with Zen monks?

What Zen monks?

I mean, what is it they do?

Why, did you see one?

No, I'm just asking... I don't know anything about them.

- You want to become a monk or what? - No.

You want to become wiser and you don't know how.

No. I was just curious...

What rituals do they have?

You're stressed out and you want to relax by practicing Zen.

Never mind...

I don't know. I'm not Wikipedia.

It hasn't changed much.

I'm sorry. I was out of town and...

That's alright.

You know me...

Really. It's OK.

- I got this from Robert too. - Robert who?

A guy I went out with last summer.

Robert Dumitrescu?

No. Who's Robert Dumitrescu?

Nobody.

I've got a surprise for you.

Another one? Hope it's a good one.

I'm sure you'll love it.

What about a one month holiday in Thailand?

What do you say?

- I don't know. - What do you think?

Thailand? You're out of your mind!

I know you liked that sort of stuff.

I do, but...

Didn't you like to travel?

- I do. I still do... - Then what?

But I can't get away from work for a whole month.

I can't even get a week off.

I told you that the NGO had it's share...

Considering your salary, you shouldn't hesitate.

Maybe not a month, but two weeks won't kill anyone.

Maybe.

But I'm also thinking about the money.

Don't. It's my present for you.

And it's not that expensive, on the contrary.

The plane ticket is a bit more expensive...

You could use this money on something important.

I'd like to go to Thailand with you. That's what's important to me.

I'd love to, but...

I don't think now is the right time.

The right time is when you want it to be.

We could go to the seaside, for example.

Or we can go to the seaside in Thailand!

- We could go to Vama. - Oh, no, not Vama...

...or to the Delta,

I've heard it's very nice.

To the Delta...

Yep...

Are you sure?

Yes.

I guess we could go to the seaside, in the Delta, too...

We don't necessarily have to go to Thailand to feel good...

See...

And we don't have to decide now. The year just started.

Yeah...

Delta's nice, I guess...

It's better than Vama.

Let's go to bed, I'm beat.

We have to make the bed.

I'll help you.

Funny we've just got back together

and already we're making holiday plans.
