- Fine.

Do you want something to eat?

- Yes, I'd like that.

Didn't you order something?

- No, I thought... I'll eat later.

We have to talk. The school asked

me to work more hours.

But I'm not sure if I want to.

I mean, I want to have enough

time for my own projects.

Yeah...

No, throw it away.

Kees, that is corn. I'll put this here,

and you can put that behind it.

Do you want some?

Look, I was thinking.. the red ones for you,

Anna. And the blue ones for your sister.

Then both of you can mark the objects...

...that you would like to have

by placing a sticker.

And if it turns out that a certain

object has two stickers...

...then I propose that you draw lots.

Well, that's horrible.

Stop with the negative attitude.

I think it's a fair system.

Oh, fair, you say.

Both of you will have first pick.

All else goes to our aunts.

Here... aunt Koos, aunt Wea and aunt Zus.

It's like you're already dead.

I won't draw lots,

I'm not going to do that.

Listen,

it's very simple.

You will have to divide some things.

But I refuse to play auction with you.

I'm going home.

- Come on now.

Sorry.

We're not drawing lots.

For the thing that we both want,

we'll divide those in deliberation.

Sebastiaan is involved

with a woman at school.

How do you know?

- I saw them.

Through a window in Rosenstreet.

What were you doing there?

Were you spying on him?

- No, that is nonsense.

I knew something was going on.

With you, I always know.

You were peeping.

Why aren't you surprised?

Okay, he is cheeting. But we

all have our vices.

You knew.

He is a friend of mine, too.

He needed advice.

Why didn't you say something?

- That was between Sebastiaan amd me.

Not everything is about you, Anna.

You're not the center of the world.

Hey.

I thought I heard something.

Are you okay?

Hey.

I thought you were sleeping over

at Bobby's place.

Did you take a taxi?

Did you have a fight?

Will you sleep on the couch, then?

Are you one of those drunk girls?

Are you such a drunk girl?

Sometimes, I miss you so much.

Hi.

- Hello.

You came back?

- Yes. Just recently...

Oh.

- At the hospital again.

You play well, darts that is.

Well...

I should and say goodbye.

- Yes...

Will you come over to my place sometime?

To have drinks?

It would do me good.

- I will.

No, that didn't last very long.

I'm glad though,

that we separated.

It didn't work out.

And your son?

- He is at my sister's, in Mechelen.

Well...

Thank you.

God!

- Sorry.

I didn't hear you.

- Sorry.

I just phoned the airport.

I am a little worried.

- Yes.

I don't know what's keeping her, either.

But I don't understand.

Why she doesn't call.

I hope nothing bad has happened.
