How I Live Now Page #5
- I said keep moving.
Daisy?
Eddie?
Help.
Help me!
No, stop it!
You like that, do you, huh?
You like it?
Come here,
you dirty little slut.
Get off... get off me!
No no!
- Come on, give us a kiss.
- Get off!
Get off me!
No!
Get down there.
Help me.
Get off. Get off!
Get off!
Get up. Quick, get up.
We need to move now.
- What's going on?
- Shh.
Daisy.
I'm tired.
My feet hurt.
I need water!
We've been walking
for hours.
I'm tired.
- Daisy.
- Will you shut up?!
I am so sick of your stupid,
whiny voice all the time.
Do you want me to just
leave you here?
Because that's what
I'm gonna do.
If you don't
shut the f*** up,
I am gonna run,
and you're gonna be
left here on your own
in the dark and you're
gonna die out here.
Do you wanna see
your brothers again?
Well, come on.
Piper.
Piper!
What are you doing?
It might be poison.
- I forgot!
- Well, you can't forget, okay?
If you don't know the source,
you can't trust the water.
And you shouldn't have
eaten all that chocolate.
That was stupid.
Mommy says I'm a monster
for chocolates.
I just can't help myself.
Maybe that's why she went away.
What?
'Cause I was greedy.
What are you talking about?
'Cause she didn't want
to be around me anymore!
Hey.
Sometimes people say things
they don't mean.
Your mom loves you
more than anything.
And she's so proud of you.
- I know that for a fact.
- How?
Well, I'm older than you and...
it's just something I know.
And listen, about last night,
I'm sorry I said that stuff.
I didn't mean it, okay?
Come on.
d Not because they're dirty
d Not because I kissed
a boy behind a magazine
d Boys, boys,
having all the fun
d She can even do the splits
d But I bet you 10 bucks
d She can't do this. d
- Daisy?
- Hmm?
What was your mommy like?
How come?
She died
while I was being born.
Do you miss her?
Yeah,
sometimes.
If she'd never had me,
she'd probably still be alive.
Hey, come on.
We've got walking to do.
I hate walking.
When I get home,
I'm never going to walk again.
Look. Look!
That's the boys' place.
Gatesfield.
That's where they've
taken Eddie and Isaac.
I told you,
they've gone home already.
But you're not sure.
Just 'cause you had a dream,
who says the dream's real?
Okay,
come on.
Yes. Come on.
As soon as I see
Eddie and Isaac,
I'm gonna give them a big hug.
Ah.
Where is everyone?
What was that?
Stay here, okay?
Are you here?
You'd better not be here.
...sympathy of others.
Itching, rashes,
water tablets.
Certain degree of willpower
and self-discipline.
- What was in there?
- Come on.
We need to get away from here.
Where are my brothers?
I don't know.
Come on.
Eddie.
Are you okay?
Can you just give me a sign
or something?
Eddie?
Ahh.
Don't worry.
It's not far now.
We should be home tomorrow.
Really?
I've saved a piece of chocolate.
Do you want it now?
Quick.
Go! Quick.
Come on, Piper! Come on!
Come on.
Quick.
Come on!
Come on.
Hurry up.
Come on.
In here.
Quick.
Oh, you're a big rabbit,
aren't you?
- Get off of me!
- - Hey.
- No! Get off!
- I'm not going to hurt you.
- Hey.
- Let her go!
I said
let her go now!
What the f***
are you laughing at?
Don't move any closer.
We're only winding
you up, love, eh?
Come on, little lady.
It's just a bit of fun.
Don't you dare!
Take it easy now.
Take it easy. Take it easy.
Calm down. Take it easy.
You don't have to do any...
Find a goal in life.
They stay in. Stop.
What is your problem?
What is your problem?
Hurry the f*** up.
Stay away from distractions.
Take risks. Step out of your...
She almost got...
Accept life is unfair.
Focus on your goal.
- Oh God!
- That's for touching my cousin
with your dirty,
disgusting fingers!
The map.
Map.
The compass.
The map.
The map. Oh sh*t.
I don't know where we are.
This seems like a nice place.
Why don't we just stay here?
Okay.
It doesn't matter
if we just...
stay here.
It's Eddie's hawk. Look.
Come on.
Come on.
It's taking us home.
I told you, didn't I?
Eddie's home.
Maybe they're at the barn.
Eddie?
Jet!
Jet. Daisy, it's Jet.
Oh, Jet!
Oh, I love you, Jet.
Look at me, Jet.
You're bleeding.
What happened? Look at me.
And I will never let you go.
What's up with him?
He's in the woods.
Daisy!
Daisy, be careful!
Eddie?
Can you hear me?
Eddie.
I need you.
Please.
I love you.
Please.
Eddie?
It's me.
Eddie?
Eddie, it's okay.
It's me.
You're home.
You're home.
Before the war,
I used my willpower
for stupid stuff,
like not eating chocolate.
I think I thought
then maybe the world around me
would start to make sense.
I guess I was
pretty naive back then.
During the war we all learned
to stop looking for reasons
why things happen.
We don't know
what happened to Eddie,
what he saw...
The things he had to do.
H is burns and scars
are starting to heal,
but he hasn't spoken.
...announcing earlier today
that a runway at heathrow
is due to reopen.
The airport will be
working at 10% capacity.
Officials have also revealed
that since the ceasefire
was announced,
electricity services
have returned to normal
in parts of the south.
The new government estimates
that within three months,
80% of the country should have
returned to pre-war levels.
Rail services are currently
operating at 15%.
Isaac's gone, isn't he?
Will Eddie be okay?
Yeah, he'll be okay.
He just needs time.
Now I use my willpower
to wait for you, Eddie,
to care for you
and love you.
I have to believe that one day
you're going to get better.
Did you finish your drink?
"Yes, thank you, Daisy.
It was lovely."
Oh!
Ow. Does it hurt?
'Cause like I said to you
all that time ago,
if the world doesn't end,
I wanna be here
at home,
with you.
Nd that's how I live now.
d We lived
in a garden's heart
d And opened it up
for the sky d
d But I was coming alive
by your side
d And now the sky
is snowing out
d And we are talking
from so far away
d I hear a whisper
in the trees d
d Where I am you
d And you are me d
d You need to find
a way back here
d Remember what I said d
d The space that is
in between d
d You have to fight it
d You need to find
a way back here
d Remember what I said d
d The space that
is in between d
d You have to fight it
d You have to fight it
d Where I am you
and you are me d
d You have to fight it
d Where I am you
and you are me d
d Where I am you
and you are me d
d You have to fight it
d You have to fight it.
