Swimming Pool Page #3

Listen, if you don't mind,

I do have work to do.

Okay. I leave you alone, Miss Marple.

I need to make some phone calls anyway.

He was at the macumba?

No way!

With Jean-Pierre?

Yeah, right.

What a pervert!

You're gross!

He came back?

I don't know.

- Going shopping?

- No, I'm going to have lunch in the village.

Ah, good idea.

By the way, I spoke to Marcel.

He's coming very soon for the pool.

His English b*tch

has a broomstick up her butt.

- May I have the bill, please?

- Yes.

Hello?

Don't worry about it.

I'm not going to bother her.

Anyway, it's a big house.

Did you ring mom?

I'm telling you,

she's still waiting, so hurry up.

Oui, c'est a. Ciao.

It's your publisher.

John? Hello? John?

He hung up.

- Hello?

- Hello, this is Sarah Morton.

Could I speak to John, please?

- He's gone out.

- Oh. Really?

- Well, could you ask him

to call me back in France?

- Okay then.

Yes, thank you. Good-bye.

He scolded me.

He told me not to bother you.

He said I should leave you alone

so you could work.

Listen, Julie. I'm going

to be frank with you.

I need peace and quiet to concentrate.

And since we share

the same living space,

I must ask you just to go about your business

without getting in the way of mine, hmm?

I mean, this house is certainly

big enough for the two of us.

So, please make an effort.

I was only trying

to be polite and make friends.

- But if you prefer-

- I don't prefer anything!

I just want to work on my book in peace.

Fine. That's too bad, though, because

I just bought loads of nice food.

I guess I have to eat

my foie gras all alone.

a va?

- We're almost there.

- I'm wasted.

Are you okay?

- Where are we?

- My house.

You live here?

Yeah, I swear!

Can't you turn the music up?

No, the old bag's sleeping upstairs.

Oh.

Good morning.

Bonjour.

I made some coffee, if you like.

Oui.

I hope we weren't too loud?

I don't speak French.

I can't understand a word.

Pardon.

Get up!

I've got to get to work.

Just a quickie.

I'd love to, but I've really got to go.

And there's that woman.

- You saw her?

- Yeah, she's outside.

- She's a foreigner?

- Yes.

- English.

- Not bad looking.

So f*** her, if you like old maids!

I was just kidding.

Want me to drive you?

It's not far. See you later.

Thanks. It was nice.

- Call me sometime.

- No problem.

Ciao!

- Is everything all right?

- Yes.

Are you from around here?

Yes, Lacoste. Have you been there?

- No.

- The Marquis de Sade's castle is there.

Oh, right.

I've heard about it.

It's practically in ruins now, isn't it?

You can say that again.

But there's a nice panoramic

view of the Luberon.

It's beautiful.
