Ava Page #4

People do light therapy to stay sane.

What?

Light therapy.

You're in a box with light on you,

to feel better.

Right...

You'll go by motorbike?

No, by car.

But I don't have the keys.

Or the car.

Where are they?

At the site.

You can't get them?

I told you, I can't set foot there.

I can go.

What's this?

With a knife...

A knife?

I was in a cornfield.

I was carving some wood with a knife.

A snake crawled onto my leg.

See?

I cut off its head with the knife.

Bullshit. You don't cut off

a snake's head like that.

It can't be done.

Right.

It's true though.

Its tail was wriggling.

After, I got yelled at because

my mother said knives aren't for girls.

She's right, isn't she?

Still want to help?

Yeah.

There's a wedding Saturday.

They hire girls to help.

With the tables and all.

You could pretend to be one of them.

You go in, you take my keys...

my papers and we split together.

Really?

Yeah.

Why can't you go there?

I was in a fight.

It ended badly.

I wrecked the guy and...

End of story.

And your parents?

You've no one who can help you?

No.

My brother's in jail.

- For long?

- 24 months.

You miss him?

Why did you fight?

For a girl.

I love it.

It's like a cute animal.

Who?

Why's it over with the girl?

No idea.

She still loves you?

No idea.

Let me shower in peace.

D'you love her?

Tell me, do you?

Shut your mouth!

Here, eat.

This is the site.

The river...

- What is this?

- Our plan.

A river here.

Another here.

The entrance.

We arrive here.

The wedding will be here.

The newlyweds arrive at 7.

Be there just a bit earlier

to do the tables and all that.

You'll be Julie.

What's up?

I told you, I won't forget her.

Let's get that clear.

I didn't warn you?

Carry on.

Next...

The caravans...

The third one's mine.

There's a small dog.

A sort of chihuahua,

but maybe it's not one.

A small dog anyhow.

Look inside a black bag.

Check my things are in it.

The car keys are in the pouch.

And the car's here.

We meet here.

You have three hours to dark.

No problem.

Great.

Helping doesn't mean I love you.

It's for the best.

Mum, it's me.

Ava? Where are you?

Calm down, Mum. Calm down.

No, I won't calm down!

I'm calling to say I'm fine

and I'll be back soon.

You know what you did?

The cops called! Who are you with?

Calm down. I'll be back soon,

but not just yet.

What do you mean, soon?

Where can I call you?

You can't call me.

I hid the number. You can't call me.

Take care, Mum.

Ava, don't hang up!

Juan!

Honey, I talk to you

With you, honey, life is beautiful

That's it there.

Follow the road

to a small bridge at the entrance.

You'll see a grey car there, a Nevada.

It's mine.
