Original subtitles

I am going to tell you

what suggests every year

the troubled sky of the fall,

the first dinners with the lamp,

and the leaves that turn yellow

in the trees that shiver.

I am going to tell you what I see

when I cross Luxembourg the first days of October

when it is a bit sad and more beautiful than ever,

because it is the time when the leaves fall one by one

on the white shoulders of the statues.

Excuse me, miss, I'm late.

Sit down.

Let's resume.

Moral begins where begins life as a group.

Because it's there only that devotion and selflessness mean something.

I'm talking about life as a group, broadly speaking.

There are different kinds of groups.

Miss Nadine, can you repeat what I just said?

Excuse me, miss, I wasn't listening.

Why?

I was thinking about something else.

Good. Leave immediately.

I'm expelling you for today, next time it'll be permanent.

For the first time, here is the path of adventure,

where we look for something mysterious.

It is the passage we read in books.

The old path that was blocked,

that the prince, exhausted, couldn't find the entrance.

We can find it

at the lost hour of the morning,

when we forgot that it was going to be 11 o'clock, noon.

HERE FELL A GERMAN SHELL ON MARCH 30, 1918

It is a German shell.

If it had fallen in the water, people would've been splashed. Better here.

Why aren't you talking?

- Because I... - You're not interested in what I say?

Yes, but I don't know you, so I don't see why...

I don't know you either but I'm still talking to you.

What if we had a seat to get to know each other?

Sure, why not.

What are you carrying in there?

My school books.

Are you studying the dictionary?

Or you just translated it in Latin.

I got expelled from high school.

Expelled, already? But it's...

the beginning of October...

What have you done?

I don't know, I wasn't listening to what she was saying and...

she asked me to repeat what she said and I couldn't.

What she was saying?

Yes, she was my philosophy teacher.

There.

How do you feel about being expelled?

It's a bit annoying, but...

I have a free day ahead of me.

A holiday.

No, just freedom since no one is expecting me at school or at home.

And you, what are you doing here?

I knew we were going to meet.

Thank you.

Well, I supposed it.

But why are you here, you seem really cold.

I don't know, you asked me to sit next to you so I did.

But you had to be here already to sit.

I don't know, I didn't know what to do when I left high school, I wandered.

I saw the gardens of Luxembourg, I thought...

it was a place as good as any.

What are you going to say home?

Nothing. I'll get home tonight and we'll see what happens.

Aren't they going to send a note...

I don't know and I don't care.

It doesn't matter.

For now it doesn't matter, but what about tonight?

We'll see what happens tonight, why worry about tonight?

No, I don't...

I don't worry. It's your problem, not mine.

But if I were you...

I don't know what I would do.

What do you like doing when on holidays?

Nothing.

Well...

Nothing in school, nothing on holidays.

I'm just bored.

- All the time? - Yes.

It's the start of something.

And when you're bored, do you try to find something to do?

No, I can't do anything, I have my parents,

school...

You're bored because you feel lonely, right?

- Yes, I feel lonely. - Now you're not alone anymore.

You're not studying?

I'm studying geography.

Let's go for a walk, it's cold.

Let me carry that.

How old are you?

I'm 17.

You don't sound so sure.

Because I'm about to turn 18.

On what day? Wait, you're born...

You like to travel, your Zodiac sign is...

I'm Leo.

People who are born Leo are proud of it.

- I am. - The others don't care.

- Why are you proud? - I don't know.

Because...

Leo is not extraordinary.

- Do we sit again? - Yes.

After being around the oceans.

You see, in these gardens...

There are those who come and sit here.

Those ones like the sea.

You came here, so you like the sea.

No, I don't like anything.

I don't think it's possible to not like anything.

Stop touching your gloves, and answer me when I ask something.

I didn't hear what you said.

- Sorry, I didn't listen. - I thought I was speaking loud.

I said it's impossible not to like anything.

- Is it? - You have to have a reaction.

Wanting this or that.

No?

I don't know, I guess...

You're saying today that it's a rupture.

Maybe it's time to try and really look.

I'd like to know if you're also looking for something.

I'm like you, looking for adventure.

But I'm a bit older and more realistic than you so I'm looking for...

an adventure more possible and humane.

Why? It's not our age or...

the situation that can change something about that.

It's not because you're older or that you're at university

that you can find something better than me.

I'm looking for an adventure more specific.

What do you mean?

You.

So what kind of adventure begins?

You're the adventure.

No, it's ridiculous.

I'm not saying that I love you,

I never said so. I said I was looking for an adventure.

What does it represent? What are you looking for in that?

A satisfaction both...

physical and also a kind of escape.

It seems so obvious to me.

We met a woman that acts like a stuck-up Madame,

who say that... I met one that said

she got expelled from philosophy class

but actually, it wasn't true at all.

It was a girl who was looking for adventure even more than me.

What does that mean?

It means what it means. That I met a girl who claimed

that she got expelled from class, but it never happened.

But you're talking about me.

No. I don't know. Maybe.

What proves that you got expelled?

What proves that you're not playing with me? Everything is there.

High school,

the philosophy class, disliking everything,

boredom of the holidays...

So you think I'm lying to you?

- No... - Then I shouldn't be with you.

Listen...

Don't get mad.

I was just kidding.

I'm not kidding, it's very serious.

I don't see why you make fun of what I say.

It's not very serious, look,

I don't even know your name.

My name is Nadine, so what?

At least I know it.

If you want we can walk, we can have fun, right?

What about you, what's your name?

I'm Jean-Claude.

Are you okay now? You don't want to run away anymore?

You don't really know what you want.

I'd like you to believe me, I'm not a liar.

Do I look like a girl who's looking for something in particular?

Well, I do, but it's not what you're thinking.

I don't know, but...

I'm saying that, but...

To be honest, I...

I don't have a lot of experience.

I...

Do you want to...

Do you want to go to the movies?

We could go and watch...

You're going to say that I'm rude, but we can go and watch

a bad movie or that we've already seen so we wouldn't have to watch it.

What would we do, then?

We could flirt.

Marie de' Medici. Isn't it Saint Barthélemy?

Or was it the other Medicis, Catherine?

It was a Medici, but I don't know which one.

I have no idea.

This one looks pensive.

Isn't it a Castille?

Castille?

Marguerite of Angoulȇme.

It's Margot.

Marguerite of Angoulȇme is Queen Margot?

- No. - I don't know, I'm just saying.

Okay.

Are you hungry?

Yes, a bit.

After, we'll go have a coffee.

And...

And we'll eat a croissant with it.

It's almost 1 now, I'm going to have to...

go home for lunch.

You see, someone's waiting for you, you can't do what you want.

I never said I was doing everything I wanted to do.

I don't think we can do what we want. Do you know people that do?

Everything they want?

I want to.

Today, yes, but one day is not...

It's not life.

Do you want to...

You want to meet again this afternoon?

I think we'll meet again this afternoon.

I don't want to meet again like this, this afternoon.

I'd like to...

I'd like to try and leave, together.

We leave everything behind.

What do you mean?

We leave Paris, we leave everything.

You quit university, I quit high school.

Are you serious about that?

- Yes. - Or are you just kidding?

No, I'm serious.

Because...

I wasn't expecting that.

And, also...

Even if we left, we could leave this afternoon.

Could you drop everything?

Even this afternoon?

If you give me a good reason, yes.

So, this afternoon,

now,

we say we're leaving.

What do you see?

You have to actually do it.

Why are you asking where, when, how? What does it matter?

If we decide to leave, if I want to leave,

I'm not going to think about that, I'm just going to leave.

When you leave, you leave to go somewhere.

No, we go to Gare de Lyon, we take a train and we go anywhere.

What about money?

What about it? Why think about money?

Because we need money to go somewhere.

We'll figure it out.

It's not the first time someone won't pay their ticket.

Everyday...

If you don't want to take the train, let's take a car, I don't know.

Let's say we hitch-hike, let's say we leave by foot.

And we walk 5 km one day, 10 km another day.

Eating, sleeping...

You know there are problems.

Why are you always thinking about problems?

So we're not free, we can't do what we want.

We can't just runaway like that...

Dreaming about running away is not a good solution.

You want to escape, to abandon

and in freedom, there is no abandonment.

So I don't know what to do.

We can't get along.

I think that...

I think that later today or tomorrow you'll have changed your mind.

If you want, tomorrow morning I'll come hang out...

around the lake where we met.

If you want to come, I'll be here.

But tomorrow morning, I...

I want it right now. If you can't leave everything and go with me...

- I can't... - What are we doing together?

If you want you can walk with me...

I'm going to take the bus.

You're talking about running away, but even in Paris

you don't want to go by foot, you're taking the bus.

I'm going to say again what I said earlier...

I'll be here tomorrow morning, in front of the pond.

Where the shell fell.

And if by any chance, your adventure didn't take you

far away, you can come.

We don't know what we're looking for. We want something else, but what?

And we've been talking for two hours to reach this conclusion.

I'd like to leave with you.

I think we could do something, together.

So why can't you?

Because it's not that easy.

Place Maubert, Langevin, Jardin des Plantes.

You can choose between Gare d'Austerlitz and Gare de Lyon.

Here it is.

Here's your bag.

Goodbye.

See you tomorrow.

75 francs.

We follow the red road to get at the empty inn.

The castle is for sale. The blinds are lowered.

Around the park, the train station's lodges are uninhabited.

The fences are so high that we only see the top of the trees.

MUSHROOM SHOW

Beasts of a great elegance were moving.

It's Landry!

Landry!

Hello, Nadine!

Come and hug me.

Hi.

What are you doing here?

As usual, I'm bored.

You're not at school?

I've been here for two weeks.

I went everywhere in Paris looking for a high school, but nothing.

- You didn't find a high school? - No.

So you don't do anything?

I think I'm going to end up taking the boat again and go back home.

It was hard, but I did find a high school.

But I got expelled this morning.

- You got expelled? - Yes

You'll never change.

So I was wandering about in Paris, I got to Luxembourg and met a guy.

- He was very nice. - Excuse me?

Yes. And...

I played with him a bit and I liked him, so...

So I asked him if he could quit everything and leave with me

but he chickened out.

I didn't really want to leave.

So I stopped there.

The botanic gardens are pretty.

Here am I.

Always dreaming.

We felt good. He was studying geography.

He must've been between 20 and 25 years old.

He was a bit of a poet.

Beware of poets, you know.

I like being with you, I'm relaxed.

It makes me happy being with you.

We're going to the museum, it's amazing. Do you know it?

No, I've never been.

Don't worry.

We're going to see something fun.

I hope it's open.

It's wonderful.

Look!

Look at this one.

Wow.

What the... It looks like a wild dog.

Look at this cat.

It's a serval.

Even dead, I hate seeing them in cages like that.

Look at that.

Landry, I want to leave.

I want to... I don't know, leave and not have anymore

worries.

Be careful with the stairs.

First floor, vertebrates and bivalve mollusks.

Mammals and fish.

Oh, it's horrible.

Landry, you say you want to go back to Africa, I want to go with you.

Come on, Nadine.

Just because this morning you got expelled,

then you met a guy who didn't want to leave with you.

He says you're a dreamer and now you want to go to Africa.

But can you imagine what your life would be in Africa?

So that's it, adventure doesn't exist.

We must go on a safari, or...

It needs planning.

I learned this morning that crazy love doesn't exist.

And now I learn that adventure doesn't exist.

It does, Nadine, adventure exists.

Take me, for example.

To me, adventure is being able to find a high school.

So I take the bus, but I don't where to go so I get lost.

And when someone comes to help me out I pretend I don't need help.

To me, that's my adventure.

We're talking about different things. Because you come from

a country that represents adventure for us.

But I'm not looking for anything specific,

I'm looking for...

I'm looking for something new, I feel trapped here.

When you escape,

you run towards something, a goal. You're not just running away.

And I'd like this goal to be

something really beautiful.

To me, I'd like adventure to be in countries

really far away.

Where lots of things that don't happen in France happen.

Where we're completely free.

Now, for example,

the animals are in cages.

Why are they in cages? Why people didn't simply decide

to naturalize the animals

without order.

And now they are on display.

It wouldn't have to be a specific country.

Just a way of living.

For me, adventure would be...

starting the world all over again.

But in a smarter way.

But I'm speaking for nothing, I know that I'll never go to Africa,

and that tomorrow,

I'll have the same boring and mediocre life.

So...

I'm going to go.

- Goodbye. - Bye.

BATTLE FOR B.B.'S HEART

Believe me, Justine,

the thing that flatters men the least,

what they don't like,

what they hate most, is the wisdom of your sex.

We respect, here on earth, my child,

what brings money or what is regaled.

And what profit can we make with women's virtue?

100 francs.

Why are you reading Chateaubriand?

Do you like it?

Yes, I like Chateaubriand a lot.

Does it have to do with school, or...

No. I mean, with school but I also like it personally.

Looks like you like everything, you also like the steppe.

No.

I don't really like it, I'm looking.

What are you looking for by Chateaubriand?

I'm looking for Memoirs from Beyond the Grave.

Very good.

Did you read it or are you looking for a special or rare edition?

I can't afford a rare edition.

Of course.

Why?

It is the way it is.

I'm in high school, and when you're in high school,

in general, you don't have a lot of money.

What is...

- What? - I never saw high school students...

wandering on the quays...

Talking about Chateaubriand to a man they don't know.

As far as I'm aware, you started talking to me.

I did, because I enjoyed seeing you

looking for Chateaubriand, it's quite extraordinary.

It's simply...

Because...

Something happened?

Yes, I got expelled this morning.

- For good? - No, just for today.

- As a warning. - It's wonderful.

So you don't have anything to do today?

No.

Can I...

Keep you busy for a bit?

Keep me busy how?

- We can go for a walk. - Talk about Chateaubriand?

Yes, perfect.

Let's go then.

But...

What's fun about Chateaubriand?

Nothing's fun but everything captivate me.

The characters captivate me, life captivates me.

It's impossible,

you're way too young to be captivated by the characters.

He's an old man, in Memoirs from Beyond the Grave,

he created a character that has nothing to do with...

Why would he be an old man? He started his life young.

But in Memoirs from Beyond the Grave, he's an old man.

I didn't say that Memoirs from Beyond the Grave was captivating me...

a lot, but...

So you've been lying to me then?

No, I said I was looking for that book, not that I loved it.

But did you read...

Something else, by him?

Yes, of course. We read everything by him in high school.

We read Atala, René...

I'm going to tell you something.

- Yes? - After all,

you're not interested in Chateaubriand.

Well...

You're wrong, I'm interested in Chateaubriand.

You didn't tell me anything.

Why do you find it interesting?

What is it? I can tell you what it is.

What is it?

- I can tell you. - So tell me.

No, because we can't say things like that at first.

You had a free afternoon?

No.

You find it fun to meet a guy like me?

No really.

So let's say goodbye right now.

If you want.

Well, I don't really want to.

You do a lot of things your parents don't know about?

No, why?

Are you going to tell them about this?

I don't know.

It'll depend on how I finish the afternoon.

So it's a game then.

No, I'm just trying to see what can happen to me.

My car is this way.

It's a...

Little experiment. You know, I'm...

I am... Well, I...

It's one of the reason why I love Chateaubriand,

because I'm a scientist.

So I love experiments.

Here it is.

So...

Where do I take you?

Wherever you want.

No, not wherever I want because

it's your experiment, you're the one looking for something.

We could have tea somewhere.

Tea? That's cute.

- Why not? - Stop saying why not.

Because...

It seems like you're expecting something from me.

- Not at all. - You're not expecting anything?

No.

We could go to the Eiffel Tower.

It's an extravagant idea, but

it looks... Fine, okay.

Let's go.

Are you scared in a car?

No.

You were saying you're a scientist?

Yes, I work in a research lab.

I have about 30 research engineers with me.

You know,

modern life is boring, the only thing fun is technique.

You don't think so?

I don't know, how could I?

Of course but you must have an opinion

about...

about what's happening.

Yes, like everyone.

But you haven't told me in what field you're researching.

What kind of research and what kind of engineers?

Research engineers in physics.

In physics?

- Good. - What's fun about...

What's fascinating...

is that...

we're in competition with

research teams all around the world

so it's both an intellectual and adventurous life.

Do you understand?

No, you can't understand these kind of things.

That's how I feel anyway.

- You were studying philosophy? - Yes

So if you're studying philosophy, you're not interested in science.

No, not really, but...

Yes, because I'd like to be ethnologist.

Being an ethnologist is the desire to escape.

Yes, that's it.

You don't think we can escape

in everyday life?

You really think you need to go... It's a bit...

It's the first idea, to think you need to travel to...

It's weird.

There's an old woman.

Well, I'm actually trying to find out...

Being 17 is wonderful.

No, I'm 18.

My door isn't closed properly.

Hold on.

Thank you.

So in three hours,

in three or four hours, since you're going back home tonight.

I don't know, maybe.

Something extraordinary must happen to you in three hours.

So you want to have tea at the Eiffel Tower?

It's the start of this extraordinary something.

If you think it can happen with someone like me.

I don't think having tea at the Eiffel Tower is extraordinary.

So we have to find something else.

What would you like to do?

No, having tea at the Eiffel Tower is good.

It's very beautiful.

This kind of view is really beautiful.

Do you like boats?

What kind of boats? Transatlantic liner...

Sailing boats. Have you done it before?

Yes, I did.

I apologize for asking all of these questions, because...

It's a bit silly, it feels like an interrogation.

But I don't know you, so...

So I need to ask you questions. Does it bother you?

No, not at all.

Is sailing a part of your need to escape from the daily life?

No, I was sailing because I got the opportunity one day.

But I didn't want to escape.

But sailing is a new world.

It's completely new.

I don't think so.

You don't?

When you're sailing a boat, the horizon is still the same.

Most of the time we're back at night.

No, I have a boat and I'm leaving for...

For a month, and it's all new.

We don't know when we'll sleep, eat or where we're going.

You see, I also need to escape.

- Where do you sail? - In Brittany.

In Brittany?

Yes, Brittany.

Do I speak in a weird way?

Yes, you do.

No, not really.

I'm sorry.

If I had said Saint-Tropez, you would've been right to laugh at me.

Yes, but Brittany...

Brittany...

We just put on sweaters, oilskins...

Sweaters and oilskins are wonderful.

I'd like to know...

Are you bald or do you shave?

No.

I don't have hair.

You do.

Yes, but I cut it there,

I cut it because it's more convenient.

- More convenient? - I don't go to the hairdresser.

- Yes but... - You go to the hairdresser...

You don't go but you shave your hair everyday.

Not everyday, and it's not shaved.

I have clippers.

Very good.

Why? Do you find it weird that a man...

Yes.

So should I have braids on the side?

No, but if you don't do braids.

Here's the Eiffel Tower.

There's lots of people today.

Do you like waiting in line?

- Not at all. - Me neither.

Let's do something else.

Do you know UNESCO?

No, I don't.

I'm going to take you there.

Fine.

But do you like your job?

Of course, it's fascinating.

You're passionate.

It's a general rule,

you won't find anyone over 25 that's not passionate about their job.

Unless they failed a lot.

What do you mean? I keep meeting people who don't like what they do.

- I don't think... - Who didn't choose.

When it's easy for us to study,

to get to our goal, it's easy.

But for those who couldn't study because they didn't have the money,

or because they weren't smart enough...

Yes, but then they'll sell stuff...

- They won't like it. - They will.

- In general, they like it. - No.

I have a janitor and she does it because

she doesn't have money because her husband died and she needs money.

And I have thousands of examples.

Yes, then it's different...

I feel like that to think, you're using

your personal experience.

- But I feel... - How do you want me to...

But you know that not everyone has a job that they like.

Do you think the workers at Renault are happy about it?

No. You have a privileged life...

But I worked really hard to get to where I am now.

Why?

You worked hard, but you could.

Because you had the means to do it. But what about those who can't?

I know, I understand what you mean.

But...

All the same, in general,

people in their 30s who have a job,

in general, they're passionate about their job.

What do they do?

I try not to see too many scientists.

Because scientists...

So whom do you see, besides scientists?

I don't know, doctors,

- literary people... - Of course, lawyers, doctors...

Of course, I can't only see...

Gallery directors...

Of course it's silly, I agree. You're going to tell me that with workers

and janitors, it's different. I agree, but what can I do?

If I want to meet a worker at Renault,

well, it's a dead-end.

- Why? - Because...

I know their situation.

I'm very...

Well, I'm very happy you're talking about that, because

don't think I don't know those things, but...

You will realize those things in life.

There are waterproof partitions in society, you can't avoid it.

It's not a fire in a rainforest, but...

There you go, Nadine.

I really don't like this.

You've never drank whiskey?

Well, the thing is...

I don't really like it.

But I'll feel better.

It's another new experience.

I wanted to ask you...

You have a nice place, a car,

you have a job that you like,

are you satisfied with the life you're living?

Actually, I never asked myself that question.

That's interesting.

And now that I'm asking, what do you think?

If I never asked myself, it's because I was afraid of the answer.

Why are you afraid?

I think I told you,

in the modern world, there is a lot of contradictions.

You see, for example,

people want to be happy, but they don't do anything to be happy.

You don't think so? Like, women look for love, but actually

do they know what it is?

So what do we have to do to be happy?

I never asked myself that question

and I don't think there is an answer.

But this house is probably build on

what you like, what things you like around you,

things you admire, art,

we can see it. Right?

Right.

You put those objects together because you like them.

It's a decoration.

And the lady that we saw in the entrance, do you know her?

Yes.

She lives in this building?

Why do you want to know?

I don't know, because...

I felt like you knew each other.

Yes, but...

Why? Are you embarrassed that someone saw us?

No, but I wanted to know...

I don't want to be indiscreet, but I want to know

what kind of women you...

What kind of women you knew, what kind of women you see.

You're very indiscreet.

Yes, but...

- You don't have to answer... - Is it your...

You don't have to answer if you think it's indiscreet.

Maybe it's your day of freedom that allows you to be indiscreet.

Tomorrow, you won't want...

to ask all those questions to people...

Yes, you might be right. Today,

I'm doing things I'd never do on any other day.

I don't know, I feel like...

But you don't want

to keep doing it?

Because it's all new to you.

Yes.

You don't want to keep doing it?

Maybe I want to, but I don't think I'll be able to.

Because I need to go home tonight.

Why?

What else can I do?

I'm looking at you, and...

You're tense, not comfortable. Get comfortable in the chair,

try to relax,

try not to think about all your big problems,

try to say anything, silly things.

Make the most of it.

It's the first time I'm at someone's place,

at a man's place,

that I just met and now I'm here...

How would it be different if you were here with a woman?

It would be different because we would've met differently.

A woman wouldn't have come to me and asked me to go to her place.

Are you I'm the one who started talking to you?

Since you were available for anything.

That's not the question...

Nadine, I'm not...

I'm trying to understand.

You're trying to understand and I'm ready to explain.

From the moment I started talking to you,

well...

It's normal that I try to get to know you,

it's quite extraordinary that...

a beautiful young lady like you that tells you she has 12 hours of freedom,

we know it's extraordinary but we also know that...

that it's unique and a dead-end.

So you don't think that...

What?

- You... - I'll tell you what I think.

What you're looking for is unreal, it's a little girl's dream.

What do you mean?

Yes, you're going to go home to your parents tonight,

you're going to go back to your everyday life,

and you won't have learned so much...

Yes, I did learn much.

This morning, I learned that crazy love doesn't exist.

Really? You didn't tell me that!

Well, I'm telling you now.

And now, I'd like to know

if money bring something to those who have it.

Imagine that I ask you, for example,

something wild, like...

Don't go home to your parents tonight.

Yes?

Well, the only way...

For that, you need...

You need to keep living.

You can't if you don't have money.

Exactly if, for example, I tell you

to let go of everything you have

and...

Let's go away together, for example.

What would you do?

First of all, I don't think you'd ask me.

Because this is beyond money.

First of all, you need to want to go away with me.

But you don't want to. Why?

I'm not talking about me.

Well, I want to know if you could do it.

I met you two hours ago, why should I go with you?

You're right.

You don't really want to go with me.

So why are you asking me?

You see, deep down...

today...

For a bit, I didn't believe that...

I never thought you'd ask me this kind of question.

It's extraordinary, it's wild.

It's probably the reflex of every high school student of 18,

to want to go and leave everything behind.

But do you think...

You see, I'm already boring you.

But I'd like to tell you things...

that you can't know.

At 19-years-old.

You think it's possible to do things that last?

You think it's possible to leave on a sudden impulse,

to go to America, North America

or South America, or to Dakar, or...

Orto India, anywhere?

I can see that I'm boring you.

Nadine?

Maybe I should...

Bring you back to your parents'.

Ah, Justine, puny creature,

do you think men are naive enough

to give charity to little girls like you?

Without asking for the interest of their money?

This man is too good, to act the way he did.

If I was him, I wouldn't have let you leave my place

without you pleasuring me.

Can I walk with you?

No, leave me alone.

Those clothes are nice, aren't they?

An American now.

The weather is nice tonight.

You're so pretty, what are you doing alone tonight?

Do you want to have a cup of coffee?

I don't want coffee, leave me alone.

Maybe some alcohol then?

What?

Vodka, gin?

No vodka, no gin, I don't care, just leave me alone.

But you're walking alone, what a shame.

Pretty, isn't it?

Have you heard about this new medicine?

Against the Asian influenza?

It's very effective, you know.

Don't bother, find something smarter.

You know, it's worth seeing.

Come to my place, I live nearby.

Leave me alone.

Good evening, miss.

Are you alone?

Why don't you answer me?

I don't want to chat you up.

It's really pretty.

You're not answering? What's your name?

What's wrong? Are you sad?

That's not possible.

Well, I don't know what it is!

What do you want? Just leave me alone.

I'm sorry.

You're really lovely.

What's wrong with you!

Today again, I only expect my own availability.

This thirst to wander and meet everything.

Waiting is an activity.

Not waiting for anything is dreadful.
