The Queen of Hearts Page #4

---

Yes.

Who?

A man.

Where did you meet him?

- In the park.

- Walking Louise?

Well yes.

Men, men... no limits.

They really have some nerve.

I'd say be careful.

On the other hand,

in your state it's urgent.

You have to sleep

with someone else to forget,

so go for it.

Thank you, Jacques,

for a lovely dinner.

Adele, you turn me on.

What's the matter?

Did it go well?

I can't understand what you're saying.

You didn't come?

You came?

That's great.

Why are you crying?

Because with Mathieu, I didn't come.

Oh boo hew, sob sob.

No messing with this one.

You're impossible.

They leave you, you cry.

You come, you cry.

You're always the victim.

It's a drag.

What's wrong with your eye?

Nothing.

Well, I'm going to bed.

I'm sorry.

I'm really impossible.

Stop saying that.

You don't believe it.

- I do, I swear.

- No, you don't believe it.

Anyway, you're so off the wall.

You accept everything, all the time.

You have no idea what that means,

to be impossible.

Why do you have

a bandage on your eye?

- Because my eye isn't well, that's why.

- Really?

- What's wrong with it?

- We don't know.

A disgusting thing

that's killing it gradually.

Can you see with it?

Not really. But with the other one

I see double.

- And the bandage, what's that for?

- That's enough questions!

It's to close it, because it's all dry.

And at night, it gets even more damaged.

- Can I ask you one more question?

- No!

Do you only cry with one eye, then?

Good night.

Good night.

You're lucky to have come.

Adele, it's disturbing.

You cry

every time we make love.

You don't let yourself go.

It's very rare.

Some women never get there.

I'm going to make a real effort.

The first times, the chances

that it works are infinitely small.

Really?

- How small?

- I don't know.

It's like winning the lottery.

So I won the lottery.

Adele, but that's fabulous!

Do you realize

how lucky we are?

Jacques, this luck

is going to stop right here.

But why?

Because I can't bear it.

You can't do that. It's ridiculous.

I'm sorry, I can't help it.

- Oh, Jacques.

- Oh, Adele.

Oh, Jacques.

Adele.

Don't try to block this love.

Stop, please.

You love me, don't deny it.

Jacques, what are you thinking?

You're rich and you want to be

loved as if you were poor.

Please get out of my car.

Don't bother to make the effort,

I'm not asleep.

I warn you, I'm very depressed.

He's not coming, my Italian.

They're all the same...

a sign of commitment, and they flee.

I've had enough.

And you? You've seen him again,

the Penetrator?

We split up.

- Why?

- It's political.

I understand.

See you this evening.

Can you watch Louise this evening?

We're going to the movies.
