Olá.

Sim. Quem é?

Olá, Peter. Em que posso ajudar?

Oito mil por hora, e só aceito dinheiro vivo.

Bem, eu posso ir até sua casa.

Ou você pode vir ao meu apartamento.

É muito reservado. Fácil de encontrar.

E há fila para estacionar.

Ótimo! Que tal marcarmos um horário?

A que horas você termina o trabalho?

Claro, são 20h?

Ah, não se preocupe, querida. Amanhã será melhor para mim de qualquer forma.

Você tem uma caneta?

Ótimo. Estou no número 32 da Feldman Drive, em Sandton.

Então, até amanhã à noite, querida.

Olá.

Claro, querida, eu tenho um metro e setenta de altura.

com cabelos loiros e espessos.

Corpo esguio e atlético, seios tamanho 34C.

E neste momento não estou vestindo nada.

Mas minha calcinha fio dental rosa favorita com um lindo sutiã combinando.

Pervertido.

Já estamos recebendo os primeiros relatórios de

Nossa nova ferramenta de relatórios.

Observamos uma melhora significativa.

no resultado da subscrição.

GL Wand simplificou todos os nossos sistemas de relatórios.

Para que possamos ficar de olho no que está acontecendo.

Certo. E todo esse trabalho maravilhoso.

Tudo graças ao jovem que está sentado ali.

Thomas.

Ah... Ei, eu...

Sabe, eu coloquei o disco e apertei instalar.

Sim. Sim. Sim.

É um trabalho bem feito. Rapaz.

Obrigado.

Bom, todas as bebidas são por minha conta hoje à noite. HOMEM: Ah, ótimo.

Ah...

Não posso esta noite. Tenho um compromisso.

Uma coisa com um amigo.

Que amigo?

Ninguém... Não é nada.

Eu simplesmente... não vou conseguir ir.

Ah... desculpe.

Então, as coisas estão indo bem?

Sem tonturas, sem coceira,

Nada mais, quer que seja verificado?

Não, nada.

Então, como você está?

Tudo bem. Estou bem.

A espera é sempre a parte mais difícil.

Acho que já me acostumei com isso.

Deve ser feito.

Sim, está feito.

Boas notícias! Parece que você está com ótima saúde.

Pelo menos de acordo com o teste OraQuick.

Você quer que eu colete um pouco de sangue também?

Não, não, não. Prefiro alternar.

Hum... Voltarei em três meses.

Então você pode me espetar com suas agulhas.

Ei, você ainda não foi embora?

Ei, ainda não.

Ótimo.

Então, você mudou de ideia.

Ah... Não.

Calma aí, cara. Só um drinque.

Ah...

Vamos lá. Vamos lá, só um drinque.

Ok, tudo bem. Sim, uma bebida.

Que bom. Esse é o meu garoto.

Na verdade, você sabe...

Sinto muito. Não posso. É...

É que eu prometi mesmo a esse amigo.

que eu faria...

Você está se achando muito durão, rapaz.

Ah... é tudo para você.

Te vejo na segunda-feira. Até segunda-feira.

Cuide-se. Você também.

* Perfeito, menos gente. Muito poucos.

* Relaxem e apreciem a vista

* Acabei de começar, talvez eu esteja chegando

* Deixe sua paz buscar o caminho

* Mas a música se eleva

O verão nunca acaba. Todo mundo dançando!

* É domingo, hora de levantar e ir para o chão

Deixe a música te fazer dançar

E com todos que você ama.

* O que você fará no dia seguinte *

Entre, está aberto.

[ABERTURA DA PORTA]

Olá.

Entre. Já vou te atender, querida.

Sente-se, querida. Sinta-se em casa.

[SUSPIROS]

Escute, fique à vontade para se servir de uma bebida, se quiser.

Já desço.

[SUSPIRO]

Oi.

Oi.

Ah... Monique.

Na verdade, Monique está nua no chuveiro.

Mas ela disse que você pode simplesmente passar.

Estou brincando. Ah.

Olá, meu nome é Monique.

Você deve ser Peter. Sim.

Ah, e Peter me trouxe flores.

Não, me desculpe. Eu... [SUSPIROS] derramei água na sua mesa e no seu...

Revistas para adultos e...

Oh.

Sinto muito mesmo. Eu não estava olhando para onde... Eu só...

Sabe, eu pago por eles. Não tem problema.

Eu não estava olhando para onde estava...

E flores, sim.

Sim, eu ia te dar flores, mas...

Vim direto do trabalho. Tudo já estava fechado.

E nem sequer havia aqueles caras na beira da estrada--

Querida, que tal eu te oferecer uma bebida?

[SUSPIROS] Sim, por favor.

Ah... Hum...

Devo simplesmente largar isso?

O que é isso?

A...taxa.

Bem...

Sim, quer dizer, devo simplesmente... Colocar em cima da mesa está ótimo.

OK.

É por uma hora ou uma hora e meia?

Ah, desculpe.

A... uh, taxa.

Ah, eu não tinha certeza de quanto tempo isso ia durar,

Então, deixei assim por uma hora e meia.

Eu não faço reembolsos, querida.

Não, absolutamente. Está tudo bem. Sem problema.

Você é fofo(a).

Obrigado.

E você também não é nada mal.

Você parece surpreso(a).

Não, não, não, eu só... eu realmente não sabia o que esperar.

Eu sei como é.

Por que você não tira o casaco?

Vou bem obrigado.

Sim. Quer dizer, claro. Eu só vou...

Tire os sapatos.

Ah, tudo bem. Sério.

[SUSPIROS]

[RESPIRA COM FORÇA]

[SUSPIROS] Ah, ok, muito melhor assim, obrigada.

É um lugar muito agradável que vocês têm aqui.

Por que você não se senta e relaxa um pouco?

Claro.

Relaxa. Não fique tão tenso.

Sim. Eu... eu estou bem, de verdade.

Você é virgem. O quê?

É a sua primeira vez? Não.

Sim. Sim, esta é a minha primeira vez.

Me desculpe, eu me sinto um idiota.

Relaxa. Vou fazer tudo bem devagar. Prometo.

Só algumas coisinhas antes de começarmos.

Eu não pratico sexo oral grego. Eu não beijo na boca.

E você usa preservativo o tempo todo.

Fora isso,

Podemos fazer praticamente tudo o que você quiser, querida.

Então,

Que tal se nós dois fôssemos para o quarto?

Tudo bem, eu estou...

Se não for muito incômodo,

Eu só queria saber se nós poderíamos

Pode ser que, por enquanto, seja só conversa.

Claro.

Você quer falar besteiras.

Desculpe.

Não, não, não, eu...

Então poderíamos começar falando de coisas normais.

Peter, está tudo bem.

Quer dizer, tipo esportes. Não é nada demais.

ou política. Pedro.

Hum... Qualquer coisa, podemos falar sobre o tempo o tempo todo.

É que eu... Peter.

Meu nome não é realmente Peter.

Sinto muito. É que eu nem sabia.

Se eu realmente fosse vir para cá.

Quando você me perguntou meu nome ao telefone, eu simplesmente...

Meu nome é Thomas. Thomas. Thomas.

Eu... eu não quero fazer sexo, ok?

Você não quer fazer sexo?

Não.

Não, quero dizer que quero fazer sexo um dia.

Sabe, não aqui, agora com você.

Quer dizer, você é linda, tá bom?

If I was gonna have sex with a prostitute

you'd absolutely be the type...

I am an idiot.

I'm sorry. I just...

I just thought I could come here to a place like this...

To somebody like you to ask a few questions, just to...

To learn about sex, and love, and everything.

You know, but...mainly...

Sex.

So, you don't wanna fuck me. No.

You just wanna talk about fucking?

Yes.

May be if it's not too much trouble.

We might not use that particular word.

Which word?

Um...

Fucking.

Okay, so what would you like to call it then?

Um... I don't know, we could may be call it--

Just don't say making love.

No, no, no, I...

I'm just joking with you, Thomas.

How about screwing?

Is screwing okay? Screwing is great.

I love screwing, yeah.

I must sound really weird.

No, not at all.

[SIGHS]

So, it's just not intercourse or no sex at all?

What do you mean?

Oh, there's always oral sex or I could give you a hand job.

So, do you rent this place or do you own it?

I own it.

Wow!

You must be doing pretty well.

Do you want to tour? Yes.

That'll be great. Yeah, lets do it.

Okay.

Ah... So this is the lounge.

Lounge, got it.

I'm sure you get it by now. Right, got it.

It's alright. There's not gonna be a test or anything at the end.

I promise.

That's a pity. I'm really good at tests.

Hey, Thomas. I'll be yours for the next hour and a half.

Seriously, you can stop trying to impress me.

No, no, I'm not trying to impress...

So this is the balcony.

You're quick.

It's a great view.

Second only to the view from in here.

I don't know, I think the view from the balcony is better.

I wasn't talking about that view.

What do you think?

Yeah, it's definitely better than the balcony.

Jeez, you're ice cold.

Won't warm me up?

Seriously, aren't you cold?

No.

You got goosebumps.

That's for you, stud.

You sure you're not cold.

I'm freezing.

Why don't you put something on then.

Men don't pay to see me in track suits.

I think you can put it off.

Hey, you can wear my jacket if you want to.

No. No, no, no, it's okay.

I've got something else.

You sure you don't mind?

No. Not at all.

You wanna watch?

More than you could possibly know.

Okay, then I'll just be a sec.

I'll just, eh... stay down here

and stew in the awkwardness of the situation.

You're funny.

Ah, yeah. I'm better when I'm not face to face.

Why is that?

Ah, I don't know, my...

My work's like a lot over the phone.

What do you do?

Sorry?

What kind of work do you do?

Hmm, I'm in insurance.

It's short term, long term...

It's so pretty boring. Really I've...

Just always been good with people that are like accident prone, you know.

Really?

I'd never say.

Yeah, it's true. Yeah.

I don't know if you ever had to renew your driver's license.

Ah, yeah. Couple of years ago, when we all had to.

Yeah, if you can imagine an office like that

on tranquilizers.

It's pretty much where I work.

[LAUGHS] Is it that bad?

Yeah. Yeah, it's just an office full of men.

Men on the phone.

No woman.

I mean the cleaning ladies are...a lady.

But I don't think she really likes me.

Everybody else kinda likes me though.

Popular. You know, I might even go as far.

same kind of a... Like a ladies man.

[GASPS] Looks hotter.

Warmer, warmer. Are you feeling warmer.

Much.

Normally I generate body heat in more creative ways.

Oh.

Like how?

Ah, so that's how you get over.

No, no, no. No, I...

Relax Thomas. I'm not gonna judge you.

Sorry.

And no more apologies.

So, what were we talking about?

Ah, sex.

Right. Sex.

So, I assume you sort off with the basics.

Yeah.

You know, birds and the bees.

Yeah. Of course.

And what else?

And nothing else.

[GULPS]

You're joking right.

Nope.

Wait. So, you're... You're like "Virgin" virgin.

Is there another type?

No, no, no... It's just, When you said you were virgin earlier.

I thought you were talking about this

being your first time with a working girl.

Ah... Then I guess, I'm a virgin squared.

Wow!

That's... That's pretty impressive.

That why I do it.

This is just how I get all the chicks.

How old did you say you were, again?

Ah, 25.

So this is the other balcony.

Look, I'm sorry. It's just...kinda weird.

You know, we can just talk about normal stuff first. You know.

Sex is perfectly normal?

I know. I know, it's just...

It's just like slowly ease into the sex talk.

Like...

Is Monique, your real name?

It's not a big deal. If we're not gonna have sex,

you could tell me, right?

Why do you wanna know?

It's like a step towards a normal conversation.

What's the difference?

Exactly, what's the difference?

Come on.

Monica. My real name is Monica.

Monica. Thanks.

Do you like, have a boyfriend?

See you know, that's private.

More private than oral sex and hand jobs?

Yeah, that's just personal.

Wait, there's this personal and then there's private.

Yeah.

What would private be?

You couldn't afford it.

I actually make a lot of money.

Private's the boring stuff. You know like...

Fund repayments, family things.

But...

Personal... Well...

Personal involves all sorts of delightful activities.

Sure. But they're not real.

What? Wow!

This doesn't feel, real?

Ah, no.

It feels pretty realistic.

So how did you get into all of this?

I just love sex, baby. All the time.

Do you ever tell the truth?

It is the truth.

Now, how about we get down to business.

[GASPING]

Ah, does your family know?

Private.

I just... I just mean you don't...

You don't tell anyone?

Will you tell everybody you came here tonight?

No. I guess not.

May be if my conscious gets the better of me.

'Cause your conscious get the better of you a lot.

How could you tell?

Well...

You're 25 years old.

Good looking.

You're a virgin.

Came here to learn about sex.

But you can't seem to talk about it.

Are you like very religious?

Hmm... No.

Do you go to church and stuff?

Yeah.

How long?

It's far back as I can remember.

So you're like really religious.

No, I wouldn't say religious. But...

I guess, yeah.

So you're just like Jesus, visiting the prostitute.

Not exactly.

How religious?

I don't know.

Not very, if you're with prostitute, eh?

I guess not. It's not like we're doing anything. So...

No. But...

I thought the whole bible thing was...

If you look at a girl,

you just think about having sex with her.

It's like you've actually done it.

Ah-ha.

So?

Have you had sex with me, I think.

May be.

May be. What's that suppose to mean?

Like five or six times already.

[GASPS]

You're a horny little bugger.

Yes. No, I just

trying to make a joke.

Relax, Thomas.

[SIGHS]

Do you ever go to church?

You say it like you've already decided the answer.

No, no, no, I just...

It's just that I grew up in the church, you know.

What? That makes you the expert on who goes to church?

Yeah, I guess.

Nice. No, I...

I'm not trying to insult you.

My dad is the pastor of this small conservative church.

And you know, all my memories are out of these

crusty old people used to shout at me for stealing communion.

Then used to sing Amen very loudly after each hymn.

So?

So it's just difficult

to imagine you in that environment.

Oh, well. I've been a couple of times.

Christmas, Easter... Really?

I never did go to a church where they're saying Amen,

after every hymn. So...

I don't think our paths crossed.

Yeah, I doubt it. My church has like 300 people.

So everyone knows everyone else's business.

And besides, you probably recognize me

if you been there. I sing in the choir.

Really? You're a choir boy, huh?

That's kinda sexy.

Yeah, I preferred the choir man.

It's not like I wear a frock or anything.

Still, it's kinda kinky.

Amen!

I used to love those old hymns.

Ah, it's all we ever sing.

Nothing new, nothing contemporary.

Sing me one.

No. Come on, choir man.

We're not gonna screw, or even talk about screwing.

And the least you can do is entertain me with a hymn.

[LAUGHS] That's not gonna happen.

I could do something for you in return.

Tempting.

Something that's not intercourse.

Okay.

Okay.

Okay, I'll sing for you. If you...

Tell me how you got into this.

[LAUGHS] You're just not gonna give up.

* It is well It is well

* With my soul With my soul

* It is well It is well

* Is my soul

Ah, nice try.

* When peace like a river

* Attendeth my soul

* When sorrows like Sea below rolls

* Whatever my lot

* Thou has taught me to say

* It is well It is well

* With my soul *

So?

My mommy used to sing that to me.

And I forgot, of course.

She had a terrible voice.

I used to like pretend that I was asleep

just to make her stop.

That's funny. You still see her?

No. No, I don't.

And me neither.

You don't see my mom any more.

[LAUGHS]

My mom died like three years ago.

Long pathetic tragedy very boring,

but yeah, I don't see her any more.

You were kind of a mama's boy, eh?

And I have two older sisters.

Ah ha, the truth comes up.

Come on. How did you get into all of this?

Do you want anything else to drink?

I'll sing again and that's for a cause.

I'm from Cape Town and that'll be surreal torture. Trust me.

What's the big deal of trying to get to know me?

Yeah. Come on, it's an easy question.

Why did you do it?

I just love sex, Thomas.

Isn't everyone? Doesn't mean that we all become. You know.

How did you get started?

Was it the money?

Come on, it's gonna be more to it than just that.

I mean...

Did you ever study anything?

You're joking right?

No, I'm serious. What did you dream on doing one day?

Who says I didn't dream of doing this?

Here, with you.

I'm serious. I really wanna know.

If all you wanted to do is talk,

you could've chatted to your church buddies for free.

Well...

Uhm... The church just isn't the same since my mom died.

It's just... It's just different.

What about you? Tell me about your girlfriend.

No.

Come on, tell me about your girl.

I... I don't have a girl friend.

No? A guy like you?

That's kinda hard to believe.

It's just the way it is, you know.

But you've had a girlfriend before.

Yeah, of course.

Recently?

Kinda.

When?

Ah...I don't know.

Like a week ago.

Wait. So that's it?

What? That's why you're really here?

What?

She wasn't giving you any sex.

No. No, it's... It's not how it was.

What was it like then?

Yeah. Things didn't work out. You know.

How long?

It's about four years.

Four years and no sex. No wonder things didn't workout.

That's not how it was, okay.

It should have been a lot of touching, huh?

No. She must've been

pretty frigid. No. No.

She wasn't for... 'Cause I'm telling you,

four years is a lot of investment to make for no sex.

How would you know?

You're right.

I should be showing you, what I do know.

[SIGHS] Just leave it, please.

Come on, I know there is big bad boy somewhere inside.

I told you.

Please baby, I'm just dying for a good screw.

Look!

I know, you don't actually wanna have sex with me.

Okay.

I mean, this whole pathetic charade is a stupid joke.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry. But like...

Won't you get tired of all this fake stuff.

I mean, ever since I came in here,

it's been a big act.

So?

So it's not fair. What do you mean?

I'm me, I'm being me you know. You just giving me nothing in return.

Oh, you're just being you aren't you, Peter?

Yeah. Okay, sure.

I'm sorry 'bout that but I came clean.

I know baby... Please.

Don't call me, baby.

Can we just chat. Let's just chat like... Just like...

Two normal people. Two normal adults.

Without all this crap, please.

I don't do that.

Why not? Because I don't know you.

But you would've had sex with me.

That's my job. And that's easier than

a honest conversation. Yes.

How?

Because that's just my body, okay.

Look, sweetie. I'm sorry.

But I really think you should rather leave.

Come on. I mean what? Is it too much to ask?

You know. From the woman's legs go all the way down to the floor.

Don't talk to me like that.

Like you've been talking down to me ever since I came in here.

That's not fair.

I'm like the cute religious virgin freak

who doesn't have-- Yes, you're a freak and I'm not your therapist.

I don't want therapy!

[SIGHS] I just need somebody to talk to, please.

Okay, fine.

You wanna talk.

Let's talk.

You're pretty stupid for a smart guy.

You think this is it.

Things happen here and then you leave and that's it.

This isn't some little bubble, you know.

Leave here and go home to your family and friends

and tonight still happened.

If your girlfriend finds out.

That's damn real to her.

She wasn't even here. But you can believe me,

it's fucking real to her.

That's the reality, Thomas.

Yes, I know. I'm not denying that.

Yes, you are.

You wanna have this real time here.

Really get to know me.

Meet someone and share something special.

Something intimate.

How, even more intimate than sex?

And then...

One day I'm gonna walk by you in a shopping center.

And you'll be there with your pretty innocent girlfriend.

And our eyes will meet.

And I'll just keep walking by, 'cause I'm a professional.

And that'll be more than fine with you.

You'll drop your eyes.

Grip your girl's hands a little tighter.

And you know why that's not okay with me?

Because you'll know me.

Not my body.

Not what I look like when I'm naked

or how I sound when I come.

But me.

You can't have that for a 1000 rand an hour.

You're right.

What?

You're, you're totally right.

I'm sorry.

I've had sex before.

With my ex-girlfriend.

And it was terrible.

Was she also a virgin?

Yeah. She was.

[SIGHS] It was so awkward.

I was so nervous, man. But we were freaking horny and...

The next thing, it was just happening.

And I guess, I just thought that after all this time

it would be like ecstasy, you know.

But it wasn't?

No.

I was trying to be so cool, you know.

So in control.

I couldn't even get it in

I was...find the...

[SIGHS]

And when I did. I'm like...

Oh, man. I was just trying to hold myself up

after my hands were still shaking.

She's just like, "Slow it, please. Slow it."

[SIGHS] All of a sudden things aren't so erotic any more.

Couldn't even come.

Just held it for a while, you don't know what to say.

Have anything to say.

Went to get a towel,

"not white" she says.

I'm looking at her and she's curled up on the bed

and I look down on my...

It was covered in... [BREATHES HEAVILY] Man.

She's just...

She's just cute.

It was real life, Thomas.

It was a little too real.

I'm telling you, man.

Those Hollywood directors should be shot.

It was nothing.

And it was like nothing like the movies.

I'm not naive, okay.

Okay, I'm a little naive.

But obviously, I know like what we see it's...

It's an exaggeration.

Give me a freaking break. It's like...

What? Just throw her up against the wall and plunge in.

You know, there's no lubrication

or fondling. No, no, no.

He uses sloppy kisses and wash her face.

Sharon Stone, squealing like a hamster, you know.

Não existe essa de "Ah, desculpe, vou rapidinho ao banheiro".

Ou o que é essa meleca pegajosa?

Não, sabe de uma coisa? Vou te dizer o quê.

Vamos ter múltiplos orgasmos, sabe?

Como se estivessem perfeitamente sincronizados numa pia de cozinha, nada menos.

[SUSPIROS]

Você acha que ela parecia um hamster?

Isso mostra o que eu sei sobre sexo.

[SUSPIROS]

OK.

Então, você quer saber sobre sexo incrível?

E esqueça tudo isso, Thomas.

Tudo o que você viu foi imaginado.

Não é bem assim.

Não se trata de...

orgasmos, ejaculação e tudo isso que você mencionou.

Sexo ótimo é sobre se satisfazer

o momento em que você se sentiu mais vulnerável do que nunca.

E confiar em alguém com essa vulnerabilidade.

[SOM DE CHOQUE]

Estávamos. Quer dizer, não consigo imaginar...

Não, você não estava.

Não se trata de estar fisicamente nu,

É que seus sentimentos não estão presentes.

O que você quer dizer?

Você disse que estava nervoso(a)?

Você achou que poderia estragar tudo.

Porque isso é se mostrar vulnerável a alguém, Thomas.

Quando você experimentar isso.

Não importa se é bonito ou não.

Porque já não se trata apenas de você.

É sobre vocês dois. Sobre serem honestos um com o outro.

É isso aí. Esse é o segredo para um sexo incrível?

Ei, você conseguiu isso direto da fonte.

É como se você nunca tivesse essa oportunidade.

Mais café?

Sim, eu só pensei que pudesse ter alguma relação com isso.

com o guindaste agachado ou lateral...

Lado o quê?

Sabe, coisas do Kama Sutra.

Sim, pessoalmente eu desaconselharia qualquer coisa que...

Refere-se a animais de forma e ao título.

Obrigado.

Bem, eu deveria...

Sim.

Então, o que você vai dizer para ela?

Quem?

Sua namorada.

Na verdade, ela era mais parecida com a minha noiva.

É uma diferença bastante grande, sabe?

Sim, eu sei.

Nós meio que tivemos isso por quatro anos, então...

Todo mundo. Quer dizer, todo mundo achava que a gente ia se casar.

É muita coisa...

Sabe, isso era meio óbvio.

Não íamos fazer sexo até nos casarmos. Quer dizer,

É assim mesmo, sabe?

Sexo é para o casamento.

Casar para poder fazer sexo é tipo

Comprar um avião para poder comer amendoim.

Sim, acho que sim.

Era mais do que isso, sabe? Estávamos apaixonados e...

No início, tudo estava bem.

Sabíamos o que queríamos em nosso...

Sabe, nosso foco era honrar uns aos outros.

Não sei,

À medida que nos aproximávamos do casamento,

A cada vez, simplesmente deixamos as coisas irem um pouco mais longe.

Eu não contei a ninguém como me sentia. Quer dizer, como assim?

Vou conversar com Deus sobre como quero tratar minha namorada.

Lidei com isso durante 25 anos, sabe, então vou ficar bem.

É como se isso tivesse me consumido.

Eu me sentia culpada o tempo todo.

Nós ficávamos repetindo para nós mesmos que tudo ia ficar bem.

E um dia, simplesmente aconteceu.

Há quanto tempo isso aconteceu?

Isso foi há umas duas semanas.

Espere.

Então você saiu por quatro anos.

Por fim, tivemos relações sexuais uma vez e depois as coisas simplesmente não deram certo.

Sim.

Uau!

Eu era simplesmente uma pessoa ruim para ser homem.

Ah, você era ruim naquela época, não antes.

Sim, antes, depois... apenas...

Não era assim que as coisas deveriam ser.

O que?

Nada.

O quê? O que é isso?

Imagino que você possa simplesmente dormir à vontade. Boa noite.

Espere um minuto. O que está acontecendo? Moni...

Monica, não me toque, está bem?

Eu nem consigo te tocar, quer dizer, um bando de porcos imundos te toca o dia inteiro--

Sim, bem, eles são honestos sobre quem são quando entram aqui.

Com licença.

Querem sinceridade? Ok, tudo bem.

Você é um filho da puta. O quê?

Você transa com sua namorada porque vocês dois estão muito excitados e

talvez seja um pouco estranho e

"Ah, ela não se parece com todas as garotas de revistas pornográficas."

que você nunca olhou.

Acabou tudo antes mesmo de começar.

E então... Então a culpa bate à porta.

E de repente ela se transforma nisso...

Monumento vivo e pulsante à sua hipocrisia.

Você pensou: ela merece alguém melhor do que você.

E, na verdade, você simplesmente não quer estar perto dela.

Você transou com ela.

A única maneira de você superar sua própria culpa

É por não ter que vê-la mais. Estou certo?

Eu estou certo, sabia? Estou, seu idiota.

Não acredito. Você acabou de dizer que não me julgaria.

Para quê? Porque sou uma prostituta.

Não.

Thomas, se você quer que alguém lhe diga que está tudo bem.

Vá falar com seu padre.

Você acha que eu posso ir falar com meu pastor, meu pai?

Ah, que tipo de igreja é essa com que você está se metendo?

Você não pode nem contar para as pessoas mais próximas sobre algo assim.

Você tem razão.

Eu e a minha vida somos tão mentirosos quanto você.

Vendendo essas fantasias ridículas

Para cada cara que entra aqui.

Fazendo-o sentir como se fosse o único cara no mundo.

que você já fez amor com alguém, meu bem.

Transar com caras que você sabe que têm esposas,

Você sabe, você tem família.

Eles vêm até mim. Eles sabem o que vão receber.

É uma grande mentira, sua vida inteira é uma grande farsa.

Você acha que isso vai acabar um dia, né?

Você vai encontrar um príncipe encantado.

Ele vai ficar muito bem com isso.

Que você transou com centenas de caras.

Sabe de uma coisa? Um dia você estará caminhando por um shopping center,

Os homens ficarão olhando para você e seu marido.

Você vai se perguntar se já ficou com aquele cara.

E daí?

Te vejo depois.

Nós dois saberemos...

Fizemos isso juntos.

Você vai saber, porque foi a transa monstruosa da sua vida.

E você vai comparar tudo com isso.

Até este momento.

O melhor sexo que você já teve com a pior garota que você já conheceu.

É o que você queria desde que entrou aqui.

É isso que você quer?

Ah, é exatamente o que você quer.

Eu sei que sim.

Você tem razão.

Eu quero transar com você.

[ABRA O ZÍPER]

[SUSPIROS]

Por que você está parando?

Você está tremendo.

Aqui, peço desculpas.

[PASSOS AFASTANDO-SE]

É só isso?

Desculpe.

Assim, do nada, você vai embora?

Sim, me desculpe. Tudo isso foi um engano.

Dinheiro.

Sim.

Tudo começou por causa do dinheiro.

Minha mãe me obrigou a fazer balé quando eu era criança.

Costumava adorar dançar.

Eu tinha dois meses de aluguel para pagar.

Minhas taxas universitárias venciam em uma semana e eu vi este anúncio.

Eu não fui forçado a isso.

Eu sabia o que estava fazendo naquela época.

Eu sabia exatamente o que estava fazendo.

A primeira vez que entrei no estacionamento

com um dos caras para ganhar um dinheiro extra.

Por que você está me dizendo isso?

Porque, Thomas, você acha que me entende.

You think, you understand what just happened here.

But all you've done is talking.

Really you haven't heard anything.

You know, they say, you don't pay a hooker to do what she does.

You pay to leave when she's done.

That's exactly what you did here, tonight.

Only difference is you're pretending you haven't.

Like you pretend that you just got into this for the cash.

What?

You want me to make up some

melodramatic story about how I grew up?

What it was that turned me into a whore?

Because there has to be a reason, right?

In your perfect little world

there has to be a reason.

Can't just be that, this is what I chose.

I must've been a real slut in high school, huh?

Someone, al the boys knew was a surest thing. Right?

[ELEVATOR BELL DINGING]

Oh, it didn't start there, did it?

Before that. Way back,

I must've been raped.

Abused.

My dad, he did this to me, didn't he?

That's why I turned out like this. Isn't it, Thomas?

[ELEVATOR BELL DINGING]

Amazing.

So, suppose all the other stuff about...

your dad and growing up.

That was just a lie too. Right, Cristy?

Right, Thomas. You're right. Well done.

[ELEVATOR BELL DINGING] What do you mean, "Well done"?

You been just lying to me the whole time.

Yeah, that's it. You solved me.

Good job, Thomas.

It's all a lie.

So I'll just keep living mine and you can keep living yours.

Hey, wait. I'm not lying.

May be I'm a little bit, but not on purpose.

Oh, I see. Your lies are better than mine.

Well, yeah.

I thought you were living.

No, I still have 27 minutes left.

You're right, sweetie. You do have 27 minutes--

Please, come on. Please.

Fine.

No, it's just... You're not understanding, Okay. It's like...

Just wait. I've never done this before.

You think I didn't peg you from the minute you walked in here.

What do you mean?

You're wireless guys.

Come to a club and say, you don't want a private dance.

Still have like a 1000 rand cash

in your jacket's pocket, just in case.

Yeah. You're number one fear is that you think,

you'll be caught cheating, or that you contract some disease from me.

No. The thing you're most worried about?

Is that, I might think you're just like every other...

What did you call them?

Filthy pigs.

Who comes through here everyday.

You'll do anything to convince a whore.

That you're actually a nice guy.

Well, I'll have to break it to you, Thomas.

That you're not a nice guy.

[FLUSHING]

There's no such thing.

Yeah, I know.

Don't bullshit me.

If I hadn't stopped earlier,

You would have loved to fuck me.

Hear moan and scream, even if I was faking it.

You would. You would.

Come on, admit it. Yes.

And no.

What do you mean yes and no.

Yes, sure. Okay, there's a part of me that wants that.

There's another part that does wanna do the right thing.

You are schitzo.

No, I'm not. Come on, like you don't feel like

there is...well, You don't do what you're doing, you justify it.

But deep down you, there was another way. Another life.

You're on, Thomas.

I made piece with my life, a long time ago.

This is it. I don't need anybody's pity.

Definitely not yours.

I don't believe you. You don't believe what?

You don't long for that type of sex that you

explained earlier. That type of intimacy.

That deep down you're not hoping that one day it's gonna be--

Fuck off, Thomas. This is what it is.

You just said, there's gonna be times

when sex is more than physical it's vulnerable, it's about sharing.

Thomas, I told you what you wanted to hear.

No you didn't. You paid me.

So I made you feel better.

No body lies that well.

Well, I do.

You meant it.

You did. You did. No, Thomas.

'Cause you had it before. You know what it feels like.

The type of honesty--

Fuck you! Shut up.

That type of love, that's what love is.

You're so full of shit.

No. I'm not trying to...

Do you have any idea, how many men come in here?

Tell me that they're having sex with me,

because they love their wives.

They're fucking me 'cause they love their wives

too much to leave them for not satisfying them sexually.

Love is just an excuse to do

all sorts of horrible things to each other.

No.

What do you know about love?

I know enough What do you know about love?

What do you know?

I know it's convenient for men like you.

We had nothing.

...that Yakub spent more money than he did on me.

My mom didn't know I was gone till I called her that Monday.

She was furious with me.

My dad, he was furious with my mom.

We'd done it.

We were in Jarlsberg, we were both studying.

I was even getting some A's.

What happened?

We were just about making enough to get by, but then...

Um...

Yakub, failed his one semester,

and we weren't gonna make rent that month.

He said if I could support him while he studied,

he'd do the same for me, once he started working.

So?

So, I could use some guys with one of the clubs and...

I still loved to dance.

Made you strip?

He didn't make me do anything.

I was in love, remember?

When I brought home the first pay check,

everything seemed, okay.

Then?

He started feeling guilty.

Like it was his fault that I was stripping.

He finished his studies

and decided he wasn't in love with me any more.

Told me that it was best for me.

He also said that,

Shantal, his study partner really understood him.

If he stayed with me, it would just be unfaith to the guy

who was really gonna make me happy one day.

Wow.

Load of crap.

Yeah.

You think that's what I'm doing?

I think, that nothing men do, surprises me any more.

Not up until you told me, you broke up with your fiancee for her sake.

You were the first guy who surprised me in a really long time.

I just want to get it right.

Just want to get it right.

Screwed it all up.

No, Thomas. Your church has screwed you up.

What? No sex before marriage.

And there's no safety net, no support when you're with...

It's not like that.

Yeah, may be my church it's kind of it.

It is supposed to be like that.

What do you mean?

I mean there's a difference between

my church and my faith.

Okay, faith is the ideal.

How I'm supposed to be.

And the church is just sometimes...

the broken institution trying to maintain that ideal.

Broken sounds like a massive understatement.

I know.

It's my dad, you know. Ever since my mom died

it's like somebody broke the huge piece off of him. The best piece.

It's like the peace that understood grace and forgiveness.

Please, grace and forgiveness is like the furthest thing from religion.

I know. I mean.

You're right. Why do you think, I'm here and not in my church. You know.

There are these things which are missing from religion.

But religion is what kept me a virgin.

May be it's kinda but...

It's bigger than that, you know, it's faith.

Which is the basis of all religion.

The fact that I get to choose.

It's an amazing combination of free will, and the fact that there is a greater plan

for my life. Somebody big is in control, you know.

All I've to do is ask, and I could be forgiven.

So why don't you just ask?

'Cause I'm ashamed.

Well, maybe it doesn't really work.

Maybe it's all just idealistic bullshit.

[SIGHS] No, it's real.

I've seen it be real.

In the last two weeks before my mom died, my dad

realized that she wasn't gonna make it.

He just stopped visiting her. Just like that.

It was like he couldn't comprehend that his

almighty God wasn't gonna save her.

I hated him for that.

I told my mom that I'm never gonna forgive him.

And she says to me,

"Don't you ever talk about the man I love, like that.

"Who are you to hold two weeks against the man who's given us 30 years of his life."

May be it's just not for you then.

I mean, that dint mean you're right, you know.

Love is just a selfish excuse to do whatever we want for ourselves.

You have a better idea?

Yeah, I mean the love that my mom had.

Just like she was never thinking about herself.

What do you mean?

I mean, she just had the kind of love that

focus on the good in us, in my dad.

Everyday, I mean, even in hospital

She's just like unrelenting on how she loved us.

I'm really sorry.

It's okay. No, I'm sorry about what I said to earlier

that you'd never get out of this.

I really do believe that one day there'll be

a guy that'll take you as you are

and put all this in the past and make a new start with you.

The guy's who're coming here are not like that.

Why do you think I never use my real name.

Yeah, I guess.

Thanks for your time.

Cristy.

Kareen.

My name is Kareen.

Thanks, Kareen.

I should go.

Listen.

I really meant it.

What?

What I said to you out there.

You know there could be this man...

Um...

Somebody that'll forget all of this and...

I don't know someone you can trust with all your

Vulnerabilities.

Yeah, sure.

No, I'm serious.

So what about you?

What about me?

Could I trust you?

What?

Could you be that man?

You're messing with me right?

What if I was being serious?

What if I ask you to take me with you, could you?

It's no way that I could know that you're really being serious.

I'd like to.

Really I would. It's just with my fiancee...

I was just joking with you, Thomas, Peter.

I mean it's...

It's just that you're really complicated.

Look, don't be silly. I wasn't being serious.

Look may be I can speak to the guys in HR,

about getting you a PR job or something.

Do you really think that I wanna leave this life of wealth

and excitement for some boring HR job.

Please, Thomas. Grow up already.

Yeah, sorry.

Remember, its...

all just an act, baby.

But you kissed me on the lips.

Thomas, it's been an hour together

you really think that I'm gonna change my whole life for you.

I was just playing with you.

Jeez, you really do live in your little dream world.

Yeah, I guess.

Thanks for your time.

[DOOR OPENS]

Okay, look. Nobody accept well, okay.

I don't believe you. Thomas.

You were telling the truth just now

when you asked me to take you away...

Thomas, what are you doing?

You were, okay. Just tell me that.

Because I just can't bear to leave it this way

with all the ice tea we had and then...

this bullshit at the end.

Just tell me the truth.

Thomas, you're very sweet and everything.

No, no. Don't do that to me.

Don't talk down to me like none of it happened, it did.

I stood right there. I watched you say that, you wanted to get out of this.

And I'm... I'm sorry okay.

I'm sorry. I'm such a loser and I couldn't be there for you then.

But I'm here now,

and I don't even know what that really means.

Look at me.

Please look at me.

I'm not saying that we'd be together.

But as a friend I could really help you. Really I could.

Thomas, we are from two different worlds--

No, no, no, that's not what you said, okay.

You said, to be that man.

I'm trying.

Okay, I just.

I don't think I can live with myself,

if all this was some sort of act.

I have to know.

You wanna get out of this?

Do you want somebody to take you away from this, Kureen?

What do you want me to say?

The truth.

Just the truth.

I'm a girl, Thomas.

Of course I wanna be rescued.

It's every little girl's dream.

A knight in shining armors...

sweeping off my feet and taking me to safety.

To a place where...

you don't have to answer the phone

in the middle of the night sounding sexy.

A place with no uncomfortable underwear.

Place where days aren't made out of one hour sessions.

Sure.

I want that.

[SIGHS] Thank you.

Oh, man. I thought I was going crazy.

So, why didn't you say something to me

when I flaked out earlier?

Please, Thomas. I asked you for that but that was silly of me.

No, it wasn't, okay.

Listen, I know what I'm talk about, okay?

May be it is something that I want deep down inside.

Ah, I don't know. You just brought it out of me

with all your stupid superman save the world heroics.

But it's all just a fantasy, Thomas.

No, it doesn't have to be--

You're the one who keeps talking about honesty.

Yes, I don't wanna be a hooker for the rest of my life.

I want somebody to love me.

But realistically,

[SIGHS] you're a boy.

You have a girlfriend who loves you,

who you're gonna marry.

You go to church. I mean we just...

We're doomed to failure even as friends.

Don't say that. You don't know that. I mean nobody does.

That's what faith is, you know.

It's the substance of things hoped for.

The evidence of things not seen.

Thomas, you're wonderful. No, no, no.

No, really you are.

Hang on, the point is like...

Just because it doesn't seem like something

couldn't workout. Doesn't mean that we should give-up on it.

I'm just tired of trying to make it on my own, Kureen.

And I don't want you to have too either.

I'm touched you feel so strongly about this.

I know what you're trying to do.

You just listen to me, okay.

What you have with your fiancee--

I'm not talking about her. I'm talking about you.

We can make plans to get--

Well, you just shut up and listen to me, okay.

Do you wanna do something for me.

Yes, I really wanna help.

Well, then go be that man for your girlfriend.

Go back. Patch things up. Start over again.

Get married. I know you wanna.

When you've done that. Call me.

Call me and tel me, I was wrong and it can actually work.

Okay.

And you?

I've got a plan.

This isn't gonna be me for the rest of my life.

I'm gonna get out of it.

Well, get out of it now then.

Okay. Okay, don't worry.

So I'm supposed to make everything, okay.

And you just get to carry on.

I don't wanna talk about this now.

Why don't you give me a call next week

and we can chat some more--

I don't know if I'm able to come back here.

Would you just relax we'll just chat again.

Okay.

Hey, may be we can meet for coffee somewhere.

I have a coffee machine.

Okay.

It was great for me. How was it for you?

It was good.

[GROWLS]

Bye, now. Bye.

I'll wait for your call. Okay.

Oh, I'm so sorry about the flowers.

And the magazines are in the pillow.

Yeah.

Bye. Bye.

[DOOR CLOSES]

[DIALING]

Hi, it's me.

He just left.

Jeez, five extra minutes. Will you just chill.

Good. That's good.

Bit of a talker, but cute.

Easy one.

No, no, no. He paid cash.

Well, I think I hooked him for another appointment next week.

Thanks. Wasn't that difficult.

[LAUGHS] I know what you mean.

Okay. Sure.

Well, can I get it from for you tomorrow?

If that's good with you.

Okay.

Sure, will do that then.

Okay, sure.

No, I think I'm done for the night.

Well, tell him I'm away or something.

I'm just gonna take a bath.

Okay. Okay, bye.
