Original Sin Page #2

Hellhound! Abominable monster!

Would that I had never been born!

Wonderful.

Disgusting.

Cheap melodrama.

Was it we who forced our way to you?|Who was it sent her to her ruin?

I...

...or you?

What evil thing has risen from the ground?

Father, let angels now have charge of me...

...encamped around heavenly company.

She is condemned to die.

She is redeemed on high!

Hither, to me!

Julia, my dear, you look flushed.

-Are you all right?|-Yes, it's the theatre.

I love it...

...even the cheap melodrama.

Will you excuse me?

Does she suffer from fevers?

She suffers from a little too much rouge.

Nonsense. A lady does not wear rouge.

No, a lady doesn't.

And a lady does not wander through|the theater alone, either.

Excuse me.

Perhaps you will find the second act|more appealing.

Excuse me, sir!|The public is not allowed backstage.

Don't touch me, sir.

That is my wife, damn it!

Luis, you've come to my rescue...

...just like a play....

What are you doing here?

Isn't it exciting?|Look at all these mysterious contraptions.

-Who was that man?|-What man? I was lost, that's all.

You made my heart stop.

Feel my heart. Feel how fast it's beating?

Christ.

You'll be the death of me.

I hope so.

Places, please.

Ladies and gentlemen, places for act two.

Take me home now.

My own dearestsister.

I can't understand why you treat me thus.|Itis many weeks now since you left.

In all that time, no word from you|to tell me ofyoursafe arrival...

...whetheryou met Mr. Vargas,|whether the marriage has taken place.

What am I to think?

I have contacted the embassy in Havana...

...and the authorities there in Santiago.

I know how you feel about her, but...

...you have to write.

You have to,|before she has the police on us.

You're right. I've been unkind to her.

Although she has never been kind to me.

Just do it.

Do it, and then it's done.

No, no, no!

It's all right. It's me, Luis.

You were dreaming.

Are you all right?

That's it.

You were just dreaming.

It's all right.

It was just a dream.

A bad one, that's all.

It was just a dream.

You okay? You need something?

You.

I'm sorry.

You are here with me. Secure.

You're all right.

Will you stay?

Of course.

Of course.

It's all right.

Luis, don't go.

How is the queen of the house|this morning?

Look. See? I've done it.

This is for the best. Thank you.

-I'll have Sara post it this morning.|-No need. I can do it myself.

I haven't addressed it.

I have the address at the office.|Then it's on its way.

What will you do today?

I'm going to an English dressmaker|at the Plaza Vieja.

You'll need money.

Sign here, Seora.

Is this for both your personal|and business account?
