Aneka, want something to eat?

Don't you worry, he'll be back.

Well?

How is the house? Okay?

Yes, but I need some help.

- Tell me.

- Water's not running.

And it won't. There's a drought.

It hasn't been this bad...

I mean it was. Once.

A tank truck comes to the square

every Tuesday and Thursday.

Okay.

Then there's this.

Don't mean to cut in. Just wanted

to ask if you have the shades.

Excuse me?

Did you make your shades? If

not, I could help you with it.

- He means glasses...

- I can speak for myself.

I mean eclipse viewers...

- Let's go home...

- Wait!

- An eclipse is coming...

- Let's go!

Now when it's starting to

be fun, I should go home?

Let's go, you're drunk.

I'm sorry, Elika.

- You're on first name terms? Zdenk.

- We are too, Zdenk.

- We've been acquainted.

- Let's go. -Wait!

I'd cut them out of cardboard for

you now that you have no husband.

- Come on, let's go.

- I'm coming.

I can stop by any time.

You can count on me.

- Tell her that she can count on me.

- Yes, you can count on him.

- Let's go, you're plastered...

- Don't let that upset you.

You're drunk as a

skunk, go home...

Why are you taking the chair?

They think that Tom...?

But that means you won't get

any insurance benefits.

What then?

Don't know.

- No, I can't!

- Just take it.

It's terrible what's

happening to people.

No matter what happened,

it's not your fault.

The party cost money, so take it

as a donation from the village.

When everything is settled,

I'll pay you back, everything.

- I know.

- Thank you.

Well...

it's time to go.

- Have you seen Aneka?

- No.

That's normal,

she's probably home by now.

- Good night, Elika.

- Good night.

We're glad to have you here.

Bang, bang, sounded again,

this time even louder.

Little Johnny drew aside a curtain

and looked behind the door.

- And there, to his surprise, stood...

- Mom? -Yes?

- Why didn't dad come?

- He's too busy.

- And when is he coming?

- Don't know.

- How come?

- I don't know!

Why did that boy say

that he won't come back?

I don't know that either.

And you shouldn't

beat up local boys.

- Nobody will like you then.

- He shouldn't tell lies.

- So listen.

- You don't need to finish it.

I know what happens. Sun takes

him, but Moon saves him.

And you are my curious kitty and

don't want to sleep in my bed.

- So good night.

- G'night.

Jeez, what are you doing here?

Don't be scared.

I waited for you

and fell asleep.

- Your husband was looking for you.

- I'll find myself.

Should I go get him?

- I really need to talk to you.

- About what?

- She'll come back.

- What?

- She'll come back and take.

- Who?

That solitude and heat, that's her.
