Curling Page #2

I'm far away from the road.

Well then I'm gonna destroy it.

Go on! Get going!

Go on!

The loser cleans the toilet.

I'm really not very good.

No problem.

You'll see.

It's really easy.

Come on. Relax a little.

When you get to the end,

you let go of the ball.

You wanted to play.

Right, that's it.

I wanted to play.

You don't bring

your daughter bowling anymore.

Bring her.

She can play with Isabelle.

I'm not so sure about that.

It wasn't safe for her here

last time.

Come on, you moron!

What's not safe around here?

She's not 5 anymore.

Are you shy?

You don't talk much.

I talk.

- I'm Isabelle.

- Yeah.

Your name is Jean-Francois?

Yes.

Kennedy's cleaning the toilets.

Yeah.

Do you bowl?

Not a lot, no.

It gets boring after a while.

You don't have to be shy with me.

You haven't been here long?

No.

I think it'll be

just for a couple of months.

Kennedy's my mother's cousin.

You smoke?

No.

Well, now and again.

When I'm stressed.

Are you a stressed kinda guy?

I smoke now and again.

You've got some look.

- Kennedy likes it.

- Does he?

Yeah. He says it turns him on

and I can dress as I like.

It's not your style?

It's different.

I think you'll be happy.

I brought you back

some nice stuff.

A math book,

a comic book,

a book about polar bears,

and a book

about the history of Quebec.

But you'll see,

it's not too hard.

Happy?

Hey, what's wrong?

Can we go see Rosie?

We'll try to go Friday, maybe.

That's a better time.

There's not as many people.

Why do you want

to see Rosie so bad?

You want a cup of tea?

We'll look at the history book.

A nice cup of tea.

No, I'm going to my room.

You want me to make breakfast

for supper tonight?

Sure I have the right.

If I can prove

I'm educating her myself.

And you educate her?

Of course.

But for Christ's sake...

That little girl must surely

need something more, doesn't she?

You in a cult or something?

No, I'm not in a cult.

She's well looked after.

Holy crap, Moustache!

You're something else.

When did you decide that?

She's never been.

Christ almighty!

I don't like the idea

of her being in school

with all kinds of sorts

up to all kinds of no good.

Didn't you ever try to send her?

Just to see?

No.

You're the kind of fool

who dives into a lake

to get out of the rain.

What?

What do you mean ''what''?

Your lake-in-the-rain thing.

It's an expression.

Forget it.

I'd rather dive into a snow bank

than have to listen

to your nonsense.

Goddamn it, J.F.!

You dive into a lake

to get out of the rain.

He doesn't want to get wet

in the rain!

How old is your little girl?

Twelve.

What are you scared of?

Wha'?

What are you scared of?

I'm not scared of anything.
