Before My Heart Falls Page #2

---

Yeah. The girl's here.

I don't know.

You got the cash?

Let me talk to him.

Fine.

Get lost.

He doesn't want to see you.

- Give me his number.

- I can't.

Hello.

What are you doing here?

I lost my silver bracelet.

I didn't find anything.

I tried texting you.

You didn't answer.

My phone's dead.

You wanna come in?

- Are you busy?

- No, no. Come in.

I'm not busy.

Damn! The only pants

I have that fit.

They're always too short.

And when they're long enough,

they're too loose!

You're lucky you're tall.

My family's a bunch of dwarves.

My husband, now there was a dwarf.

This tall, I swear!

And that was if

he stood up straight.

At first, he thought

he didn't stand a chance with me.

Too short.

He really thought I was doing him

a favour, going out with him,

that I was doing it out of pity.

What a moron I was.

With my short pants

and a bitchy look on my face...

as if I was better than him.

Are you interested in any of this?

Yeah, sure.

When you go to someone's house,

you listen to them.

I'm listening.

You were talking about kids.

I was talking about not having kids.

It's not the same.

For me, it was

out of the question. No way.

For him, it was a must.

The absurdity of a life

without children...

But what if you don't love them?

That happens, doesn't it?

Do you regret it?

What, not having kids?

Being alone.

Turn it up!

Don't leave me here alone.

You're not alone.

The doctor's coming.

Wait with me, please.

Why do you keep showing up?

I don't know...

Why?

Because there's nobody else.

Another beer?

- Ouellet wants his money.

- We don't have it.

Leave him alone!

I'm the one who f***ed it up!

You're gonna have to find

a way to pay.

- I can't.

- Sure you can. You have to.

Worse comes to worst, we'll throw

a skirt on you and put you to work.

I'll see you back here

in three days.

Got it?

Got it?

Why the hell did you go see them?

We didn't, for Christ's sake.

They came after us!

She tried to arrange a meeting

with Ouellet.

- I thought I could...

- What?

You thought you could what?

- That's not up to you!

- It would've made you happy.

That's not up to you!

There's no talking.

They want their money.

Once we pay them, that's that.

You can't talk your way

out of a debt.

Why didn't you tell me?

I would've gone with you.

F***ing unbelievable.

You should work instead of

drinking tea with your widow.

He'll get his goddamn money!

Well, I just found us

a sweet little gas station

that's gonna pay off big time.

No more jobs with people around.

You'll f***ing do

what you have to do.

Why are you hanging around

with the widow anyway?

We're your family.

You wanna get us arrested?
