And you're quite sure you don't want to go to the wedding?

- Yes. - I thought Josie and Paul were friends of yours.

Yes, of course, but...

Max and Paul, they are really very close. And hence...

Do you let him go first?

To be honest, I don't really feel like going to a wedding. I'll catch the bride's bouquet afterwards.

You don't want to go to the wedding because your own dream has burst? Don't you?

Your whole life plan.

Yes.

You know, it's strange.

Max and I were so sure. And then...

It's really better for Max if I don't go to the wedding.

Yes.

We have to go.

I thought you were at the wedding.

I, uh, work.

But you actually wanted to go.

I thought you were there for Paul.

And I canceled especially because of you.

Vanessa, I've been thinking again.

Since you can't just explain to me why you broke up with me, then...

...there is only one thing.

You're dating someone else.

Who is the guy?

There is no other guy.

I don't believe you.

Then that's your problem.

I wish I could spare Max all that.

We have planned a future together.

Wedding, children.

Now I'm ruining everything.

Even though he didn't do anything wrong at all.

But you can't do anything about your feelings.

Yes.

He'll be blown away when he finds out I've fallen in love with a woman.

Yes.

I... know how difficult it is for you to tell him the truth.

But I have no choice.

I'm always there for you. You know that, right?

Thanks.

I just wish it was less complicated.

Um...

Max, you wanted to know why I... broke up with you. And--

I've known that for a long time.

- Uh... what do you mean by that? - Have a seat with me. I do not know either.

Because...

Because I was angry so often.

I betrayed you, I...

And I actually love you so much. And then...

...then you always wanted children and I didn't want any. And then I wanted...

...kids and you didn't want any. The devil...

...had a finger in the pie.

You are so pretty.

Max...

And you smell good.

I love you more than anything in the world.

And I'll prove you that I love you. And how much I love you.

It's a shame you weren't there at the wedding because Paul and Josie looked great.

Beautiful and very happy together.

Hey.

Sorry I... I didn't mean to scare you. I heard the... door and thought it could only be you.

Yes.

Uh... do you want water too?

You look tired.

I am too.

Did you talk to Max?

Yes.

Good.

But not about that.

It didn't work.

Why not?

Because he was at Josie and Paul's wedding, it was very emotional, he was depressed.

Oh... and... and then you didn't want to make him depressed even more?

Also, he was very drunk. And then fell asleep anyway. Man, it wasn't a good time to have this conversation with him.

And if he'd been happy, you'd probably have ruined his good mood--

- Carolin? - Please excuse me.

I'm really tired, I'll just go to sleep now.

I'm sorry but...

Sleep well.

Yes. You too.

Hey.

Your...

...uncle told me you were here.

Yes, I'm just taking a very short break.

Vanessa, I'm sorry I bothered you all this time about Max.

But...?

Nothing but.

Sure?

Promised.

Thanks.

Take all the time you need. Yes?

Max!

Um...

I...

I'm sorry!

Max!

I would have loved to explain everything to him.

I should talk to him. I...

No no no.

Maybe... you'd better leave him alone for a moment, huh?

It has to get to him first.

Unfortunately I have to go to the stud farm. I have the next one...

Riding lesson, I know.

See you later.

I write a letter.

Max?

Can we please... talk?

Clear.

I don't know what that brings though. It's all clear anyway. But sure.

Okay.

I already figured that you...

...don't talk to me.

That's why...

I...

...I wrote everything down to explain it to you.

Here.

You...

...fall in love with Carolin.

You... throw away our relationship, no matter what, and then...

...write a letter?

Wonderful, Vanessa.

I...

...wanted...

...explain to you how it came about.

You can save yourself the effort.

There is no good explanation for this.

You know, I understand that you can fall in love with other people. I understand that. But then we have to talk about it.

We talk about it with each other. Otherwise you are lying to me. I don't know how long you've been lying.

I was uncertain.

Max, I...

I was overwhelmed by the situation.

You are a coward, Vanessa!

Coward!

Okay, then I was a coward. Yes.

I'm sorry I...

...couldn't help it.

What idiot wants a second chance?

I didn't know I was falling in love with a woman either.

And that all...

My whole life is changing, do you understand that, Max?

I--

Excuse me, but what do you want from me?

Do you want some pity?

Look, I have a dose of pity here with me.

Here you go.

You know that about us wasn't a lie.

I've always been very happy with you.

Do I know?

He wasn't really listening to you?

No.

Yes. No idea. He...

In any case, he didn't even want to read this letter.

Alfons, I'm really worried about him.

I would love to be there for him.

Him...

-...to comfort him. - No no no no!

So you're the wrong person right now.

Yes?

I talked to him too.

And I'm sure that would only hurt him more now.

Yes, nothing will change anyway. It's all...

But Max...

He still means a lot to me.

You know, seeing him suffer like that, it's...

I can't do that.

But it is how it is.

And now you have to endure it.

- Yes, but-- - Vanessa, no.

For real.

He has to process all of this now.

And then maybe he'll come up to you.

But now he needs time.
