Angel-A Page #8

By the way...

How are we going to pay for it?

I have an agreement

with the head porter.

How so?

He bets on races.

So I gave him a tip.

A bad tip?

No, he's going to make 10,000 Euros.

You know races results?

Any race.

Anywhere in the world.

Are you kidding me?

You let me bet on

that rotten Brutus...

I had warned you.

But a few hours ago

you wouldn't listen to me.

And anyway... I'm not allowed to

give away that kind of information.

It's forbidden.

You're not allowed to

give away that kind of information?

Why... Why did you tell me

that you're an angel, then?

I shouldn't have.

Why did you do it, then?

Hey!

What are you doing, Angela?

I'm off to see your buddy Frank.

What? In the middle of the night?

What are you going to tell him?

I'm not the one who

has things to tell him.

You are!

So we're going to see him.

And you'll tell him

everything you need.

So that I can go back home.

Angela...

Okay...

So, what should I tell him?

You're doing it again...

I told you a hundred times!

The truth!

Nothing but the truth.

The truth.

No problem. Okay.

If you don't do that, your pain

will stay here, in a ball.

It's weaker, but it's

still here, yeah...

You've got to get it out.

Once for all!

If it's outside,

it won't trouble you inside anymore.

Okay. No problem.

I agree.

And after that?

After that? You'll be

cleared, on the inside.

You'll just have to fill up.

Angela...

What if it's with you

that I want to fill up?

Ah...

Don't do that again.

Angela, I'm in love with you.

You see everything.

You feel everything...

How can't you see

something this simple?

Focus, please.

Right here...

What do you feel?

I feel something, but...

I feel exactly the same thing.

And now I know how it's called.

Anyway...

Let's go meet Frank...

Things are getting really messy.

No.

Things only start to

looking clear now.

Like...

Looking like the truth, for instance.

I'm tired, Angela... I swear.

I'm tired of screwing up all the time.

Tired of lies...

For the first time in my life,

I want to be true.

I'll be able to say everything I feel.

Everything.

Do you know what I'm feeling, Angela?

Shut up.

Miss!

Miss!

Miss, please...

Miss.

Now is really not the

time to f*** with me.

Sorry for interrupting you like that

in the middle of the night...

...but Andre has something

very important to tell you.

I can't take it anymore,

and I want to go home...

...so let's end this now!

Come again?

Who's that girl?

You!

Shut the hell up!

Andre! Come in!

He's here.

In his bed...

What the f*** is this?

When you start breaking the rules,

you really go for it...

The door...

The bodyguard...

And you chose this

place because you knew

that's where he would stay.

You're going to be fired.

That's not your business.

It's mine.

Be nice, now.

And deal with him quickly...

...so that we can get the hell away.

Okay.

Andre...

Andre...

You're not going to

kill me, aren't you?

Your coffee isn't bad, Frank.

Andre... I... I... I...

I'm sorry.

I... I know I offended you.

And it really was stupid of me, buddy.

Buddy?

No. Sorry about that.

I took advantage of

your weakness, sir,

and really I shouldn't have.

That... that was pathetic of me.

There's even some business

we could do together.

If you want... That is, if you have the time

But I beg you... Andy.

Do not kill me.

Be nice... do not kill me.

I'm sorry I borrowed

money from you, Frank.

It's my fault.

I'm the one to blame.

In the first place,

I should never have

set foot in your lousy club.

It cost me time and money...

Instead of taking care of the business

for which I came to Paris.

But there's no escaping it.

When you feel like sh*t, you're attracted by

the other pieces of sh*t

like you. That's life.

That's why we used to get along fine,

in the beginning, Frank.

We could hate each other mutually.

That wasn't a problem.

One day, an angel entered my life.

A wonderful woman, who opened my eyes.

It's so good to have

the eyes opened, Frank.

Now I can look at the

sun, rising over Paris.

All these small lightbulbs...

switching off, one by one.

I can see all this, Frank.

And it's thanks to her.

Because she had the

kindness never to judge me.

She loved me as I was.

Even though I wasn't much.

I am happy for you, Andre.

Sincerely.

But you're not going to

kill me, aren't you?

No.

I'm going to feel sorry for you.

Did you see that, Angela?

I did really good, for a first time!

Where are you?

Angela?

Angela...

Angela, what are you doing?

Where are you going?

I'm going home.

You can't do this to me.

It's impossible.

Angela, stop!

I did all you asked me to do.

Look!

I've emptied everything.

Now we can start over, together.

We'll be together, choosing the things

that will fullfill me. Like we said.

You're big enough to

choose on your own, now.

I don't want to choose on my own!

I want to do this with you, Angela.

Because I love you. And I want to spend

the time I have left

to live at your side.

If you leave me, it's

going to be horrible.

I'll be falling back on my old habits.

As if I had gone this far for nothing.

Well... too bad.

Destroy yourself if you want.

I took many chances for you.

I've got a 9/10 chance of being fired.

So please be helpful, Andre.

Don't ruin it all.

And live the life you

are meant to live.

Angela! What if the life

I'm meant to live was

the one where I'm staying with you?

No! I already know your life entirely.

In two months, you will

create your company.

In five years, it's going to be

the leading olive oil business.

You're going to meet Catherine.

A lovely 30 years old lawyer.

With whom you will have

three beautiful children.

Do you want to know their names?

Do you want to know how

they'll do in school?

I want to know why you're crying.

Because...

Because it's always like that

when a mission is completed.

I'm made for meeting.

Not for goodbyes.

Are you satisfied with this answer?

Listen to me.

What you've done for me was enormous.

You have my eternal appreciation.

'Eternal'?

Please, don't use words

you don't understand.

Angela, listen to me...

I'm sorry.

Forgive me.

You've taught me what matters:

to stop lying.

That's right.

That's the most important thing.

So why don't you stop lying yourself!

Angela, stop!

Listen to me.

Look at me.

Look at me in the eye.

Stop!

Look at me.

Leave me alone.

Let me tell you what

I see in these eyes...

I see a woman who doesn't want to leave.

A woman who's tired of

not knowing who she is.

Like me, nobody ever

told you he loved you.

And if someone did, you don't remember.

Shut up.

I love you, Angela!

Shut up.

I love you.

Shut up!

I can't live without you.

It's impossible!

What's the point of living with me?

What are you talking about?

I'd be an angel who burned her wings.

A fallen angel.

I don't care about that!

I love you the way you are.

I don't know...

...who I am!

I have no past.
