In the Shadow of Women Page #3

her way to live between

him and her mother...

he was afraid of losing her.

But he had to see Elisabeth.

He found excuses with the double

moral men use. He thought...

This is the way it is. I am a man.

I didn't choose to be a man.

- You okay?

- Yes.

Never mind, it's not bothering me!

But it bothers me.

This way you'll have space to...

put your stuff and work.

I'm late. Again.

You look good.

Not that much.

My ex still tyrannizes me.

- How are you?

- Fine. Your ammo.

Here we are. Well...

Don't forget to put the keys

in the mailbox when you leave.

You didn't give me your keys.

- Didn't I?

- No.

- Here.

- Thank you.

- Okay. Good bye, good work.

- Yes.

- Call me if there's a problem.

- Okay.

Won't you tell me where you were?

It's been three days.

You didn't call me.

You didn't see me.

It's quite difficult.

I knew it. I'm not betraying you.

You know from the start

that I'm married. I have things to do.

Do you want us to stop our relationship?

That is not what I said.

Someday you will meet a young

and single man. He'll love only you.

That will be the end of us.

- Why do you say that?

- Because it's life.

Stop.

Why do you say such things?

Stop it. I...

You are the one I want.

You are the one I love.

The day came when Elisabeth

discovered Manon had a lover too.

- Hello.

- Hello.

A revenue stamp.

The one at 25, for an ID card, please.

Here you are.

Thank you.

Manon's betrayal toward Pierre hurt her.

Inexplicably, she felt like her and

her love for Pierre had been soiled.

Still, she decided to kept silent.

I'd like to see your film.

You will see it.

Yes... after it's released on DVD.

Why don't you ask me to come tonight?

You know why.

Do you think I can't behave properly?

You are afraid... I talk to your wife.

What would I say to her?

"Hello!"

"I heard a lot about you."

"Very good things."

"I'm very happy to meet you.

Do you know why?"

"Because your husband has been

addicted to my body for six months."

You are afraid I say so.

If you say that I'll have to choose.

Who would you choose?

I'll call you tomorrow.

This is a public screening.

Where were you? I've been

waiting for you for two hours!

I was with my Mom's friend.

She had a problem with her computer.

We were supposed to work.

I waited for you.

Sh*t!

I'm sorry.

- Your hairstyle is weird.

- What?

What... did you say?

It was Manon's first lie.

It was really hot at my Mom's friend.

It bothered me.

I entered an unknown territory.

I'm lost.

I don't know where to go.

I'm concerned about Mom.

You're making me crazy.

I'm afraid.

When she saw Manon with her lover again,

Elisabeth thought it was a sign.
