Bilitis Page #3

---

- How?

- I think... softly.

That was my first time.

No, not here!

Not here, not now, not this evening!

You make me crazy!

I'll see if Bilitis is asleep.

Close the windows and shutters.

- Why?

- She hears us!

She's a pest!

I think that I cannot kiss.

What do you do after you

stick out your tongue?

You'll learn.

Teach me.

- No.

- Please.

Some other time.

No, he will take me for child.

- Come.

- No.

- Come.

- No.

- This way?

- Yes.

Am I doing this right?

Melissa, what are you

doing up there?

- He becomes impatient.

- Yes.

- He's going to make love to you?

- Yes.

Can I reach you in Monte Carlo?

Why? To say me that you

can't sleep without me?

Don't forget the blue chamber.

The blue chamber?

Yes, he slept there

I wasn't feeling well.

Exactly the day before I leave.

What a coincidence!

I learned a lot of

things about him.

What?

What a man is, for example...

Not encouraging.

You can rest 3 days and

nights without me.

When I think what he's

going to do in Monte Carlo

I can't tell you, Nanny.

Thus, I can go.

You seem sad that he's gone.

It's not as simple as that.

You'll understand later.

Nevermind.

Are you going somewhere?

Now I feel bad if I leave you alone.

You're going to anyway.

Lucas?

Have you done anything yet?

Of course not.

That's good. You have

plenty of time for that.

Men aren't all like Pierre.

There are some that are

gentle, kind, and nice.

Lucas, perhaps?

Yesterday you were lively.

What's wrong?

Must I jump for joy because you

told me the troubles of Melissa?

You were in a bad mood when I

arrived before I said anything.

I wasn't in a bad mood,

only sad.

Just today when I

want to cheered up.

What do you want?

A person can't be funny everyday.

You work on my nerves.

I lived with a girl that I just

left because of you.

That is normal...

That's good! Normal!

I'm not very happy!

You regret it.

I don't regret it!

Is that your boyfriend,

the photographer?

That does not concern you.

Your boyfriend and your

problems are not my matter.

And I'm not going

alone to Monte Carlo.

That's none of you

business, okay?

I believe we understand.

Good day.

I was hoping you

would return.

Is that Melissa's husband?

Take me away somewhere please.

- What happened?

- Nothing. Take me away.

Wait.

You're like all the girls.

Let me finish!

You always try to make

me feel remorse.

You feel remorse?

Sometimes, you

deserve a beating!

Go ahead, then.

- Bilitis, I'm warning you!

- What are you waiting for?

Enough! Just stop!

You're driving me crazy.

You're impossible.

Then you must beat me.

Kiss me.

Never.

- Yes.

- No.

- Yes.

- No.

- Yes...

- No...

You're not going to

make love to me?

One does not die from it.

Yes, but I have never...

I've done nothing?

You call that "nothing".

Almost nothing.

Bilitis... listen.

Listen. It's natural for

a girl and a boy...

If the girl wants

the boy, it's normal.

Otherwise he'll look

at other girls.

Do that, go look!

It makes no difference to me!

-It can't make a difference.

-What is it?

What is it with her?

A virgin... huh!

Come here...

I hate men.

You mustn't.

You're like me.

We're made the same.

Be silent.

You can't hurt me.

I'm happy with you.

You're crazy.

I am Pierre.

Alas, when I think of her,

my throat becomes dry.

My head bows down.

My breasts harden and ache

I shutter and weep as I walk.

When I see her,

my heart stops.

My hands tremble, my feet turn cold,

my cheeks burn fiery red...

my temples throbbing.

When I touch her, I go mad.

My arms stiffen,

my knees are weak

I fall before her lie waiting

as if a death could take me.

Her every word is a

wound to me.

Her love is a torture to me.

Strangers passing hear me crying.

Alas, how may I call

on my own beloved?

What do you think?

Listen. It was strange,

it was gentle, it was beautiful.

But it could never happen again.

- Never again?

- No, never.

However, you find that

you don't. I find...

Nothing. As if it had

never happened.

You don't need me anymore.

You again!

I haven't been nice to Bilitis.

So I thought I'd like to see her.

Even if you love me more

than anyone...

you would still need a man.

Where are you going?

- To find you one.

- What?

- A man.

- You're crazy.

You only love me when I am.

If anybody calls for me,

I'm not here.

She's impossible.

- Where is she going?

- To get me a present.

- It's so urgent... that she hurries?

- She thinks so.

You didn't handle her very well.

You shouldn't have.

Not like that. Not right away.

I came to apologize.

She ran away.

Excuse me.

- Well?

- Well?

Well maybe you'll do.

That would surprise me.

Let me explain.

But leave.

I'm not available.

You're wasting your time.

What will you have?

A glass of milk.

Do you always act like this?

Like what?

- You're nice.

- Me, nice?

- The same.

- I said I wanted milk.

Strange manner to meet boys.

Oh yes?

Which games do you play?

Let's just forget it.

You could go, or you come sit.

I've been watching you.

The first when you look... zero.

The second... still zero.

You'll never succeed

I always get what I want.

Come.

- What is it?

- The same as mine...

You don't know what you want.

That I know. A lover.

Not for me. For a friend.

- To do this... for her.

- For her, nice.

A man who's handsome,

and gentle, and strong.

Who won't ask questions

and goes away afterwards.

And who you find attractive also.

Naturally.

She knows what your looking for.

You should've brought her along.

Melissa.

That's her name?

Melissa... pick up a man

on the street? Impossible!

- I like you.

- You'll like Melissa even more.

Perhaps... but what you want

is out of the question.

Why?

Because...

Wait... you're right.

Only she can know.

Only she can choose.

But to see, I have no money.

How much do you need?

Listen, if a person fights with

someone for some reason,

could she speak to him...

without going back on

the first reason?

Do you want money or not?

No, he owes me at

least that much.

Excuse me!

My name is Nikias. You can

find me at my boat.

Well, well...

I'm not coming to see you.

I've decided not to speak to you.

So I won't speak to you.

But... you are Mr. Lucas Mercier,

photographer, right?

Yes, that's me.

Welcome!

That...

and that one...

- And that.

- Yes.

That...

and this one.

Thank you!

Hello, Lucas.

Oh... Mister.

Take him. Nikias!

Sorry... it was a task.

And him, why not take him?

Do you know each other?

Yes.

Why me?

No importance. Have any left?

I must reload

- ...or do you have enough?

- How many do you have?

That's good.

I guess 50% reject...

I never miss a photo.

No, not the photos...

the wrong places are bad.

Oh... the places.

I didn't hire you to make comments,

only photos, that's it!

Very good.

- Do you do want an envelope?

- How much do I owe you?

One kiss.

I already paid. Greetings.

- Don't you like any of them?
