Magical Girl Page #4

I told you I didn't find you disgusting,

and it's true. I feel pity for you.

You'll have your money. How much?

20,000.

For the day after tomorrow.

That day I'll go to the library,

and I want it at the same spot.

Do you understand?

Understood.

- Barbara.

- Hello.

- What time is it?

- Noon.

I just went to bed.

I need to ask you for something.

It's urgent.

- How urgent?

- Very.

I'll hear you on one condition.

- Which one?

- Buy churros.

- Do you want some?

- No.

Did I say porras or churros?

- What?

- Did I say porras or churros?

- Churros.

- Really?

Yes.

- I think I told you porras.

- You told me churros, Ada.

- I didn't expect to see you again.

- I didn't expect to come back.

What are you doing here then?

I need more money.

Gee...

How much more?

20,000.

- With the same conditions?

- No.

- Then maybe.

- I need it for the day after tomorrow.

That's utterly impossible.

I'm very sorry.

I'm willing to go

through the black lizard door.

What are you talking about?

The door with a black lizard drawing

at Oliver's.

I don't know what door

you're talking about.

You know it, Ada.

Is there a napkin?

What have you heard about that door?

- Likely the same things as you.

- I don't think so. Not really.

- Go home, Barbara.

- No.

Go home.

Call me later and we can arrange

three or four jobs for next week.

I beg you.

I'm begging you too.

I don't want to get mad.

I'm going. If you don't arrange it,

I'm going alone.

The only difference is

you'll lose your share.

I don't care. I don't want to

have anything to do with this.

- Is it final?

- Yes.

Thanks.

Barbara, don't do it. I beg you.

Hello?

Hello, I'm Barbara, the girl you took

to Oliver Zoco's house the other day.

- Hello Barbara, how do you do?

- I'm fine.

Do you want me to take you anywhere?

No. Actually I wanted to ask you

some other thing.

Really?

Tell me.

I'd like to ask you about

the black lizard door at Oliver's.

What do you want to know?

I wanted to know...

I want to go through that door tomorrow.

Hello?

The driver will be at your front door

tomorrow at 11:
00.

Thanks for arranging this.

Good morning.

Good morning.

- How are you?

- Fine.

Well, this is our last session.

I'd like to thank you.

It's been very easy to work with you.

And I wish you the best from now on.

Thank you very much.

I'd like you

to evaluate your progress...

...and to tell me in which areas

you think you've improved...

...and what you should keep

working on outside.

To be honest,

I still have a lot to improve.

It takes time.

Indeed I have something for you.

- And this?

- A present.

You shouldn't have...

- Thank you.

- You're welcome.

Damian, you're a good man.

Don't forget it.

Thanks.

I want to ask you something.

Sure, tell me.

I don't know how difficult it will be.

We'll see. What is it?

I don't want to go out tomorrow.

What do you mean?

I don't want to go out of jail.

I want to stay here.

I don't know for how long,

but I know I'm not ready.

Would you like to explain it to me?

I thought of

hitting a guard or an inmate.

But I don't want to waste

all this time we've worked together.

That's why I'm asking you personally.

And to avoid hurting others.

I don't get it.

Why don't you want to go out?

Because I'm afraid.

What are you afraid of?

Of meeting Barbara again.

FLESH:

It's 6.20.

Thank you.

How do you say "thank you" in Chinese?

And this.

Excuse me, are you alright?

Are you alright?

Listen.

She was in the stairs

near the landing...

...and I've brought her home

so I could help her.

I don't know if it was

the right thing to do.

She's conscious but in bad shape.

Really bad.

Yes, send it as soon as possible.

Thanks.

The ambulance will come right away.

Damian...

Thank you.

You look very old.

Can you hand me my bag, please?

I need a favor.

What do you want?

Could you return this book to the library

in Puerta de Toledo?

The Constitution.

Could you return it?

I don't think you should worry

about this right now.

Please.

The ambulance will arrive soon,

you'll see.

It's very important, Damian.

Tomorrow I will do it.

Damian, help me.

What else do you want me to do?

Give me your hand.

If we need anything else,

we'll contact you.

OK.

- Thanks a lot, good night.

- Good night.

Hello?

- Is it Damian?

- Yes, I am. Who is this?

Sorry to bother you.

I'm Alfredo, Barbara's husband.

The woman you helped last night.

Ah, good morning.

I got your number from the hospital.

I've already talked to the police.

See, I found your wife in the landing...

No, don't worry.

I've called to thank you.

Thank you very much.

Well, I did as anybody else would have.

- Thank you very much.

- You are welcome.

How's your wife?

She just started talking.

- Did she tell you what happened to her?

- No.

And the doctors?

Doctors say...

They don't know anything.

The first thing she said is

that she wanted to talk to you.

She wants to thank you.

Well...

She has to start talking.

I need you to talk to her.

About anything.

I'd be very grateful.

It will only be for a few minutes.

- Ok, don't worry.

Thanks.

We're at the San Gabriel Hospital.

Room 239.

I'm here.

Ok, see you.

See you.

- Damian, isn't it?

- Yes.

- I'm Alfredo. Thanks for coming.

- You're welcome.

I'm going to the cafe.

Do you want anything?

No, thank you.

I'll be back soon, my love.

I told you before but

thank you very much.

Don't mention it.

Sit down.

I'm fine here.

Sit down, please.

- Have you met my husband?

- He didn't know me.

- I've never talked to him about you.

- Better.

- Did you return the book?

- Yes.

You're still very tender.

You've always seen me that way.

Because it's true.

You're very tender and a good man.

You're my guardian angel.

You were on my doorstep.

I would've helped anybody.

It was the only place I could go to.

How did you know where I live?

Barbara, I have to go.

I really hope you get well soon.

Don't go.

What do you want?

I need something else.

What else do you want, Barbara?

I want to tell you what happened.

No, tell your husband or the police.

I only trust you.

I'm sorry for what happened but,

please, let me go.

I beg you.

Ok, go.

I'm sorry.

It's ok.

Thank you.

I want to tell you.

- You must tell the police.

- I can't.

- Why can't you?

- Because, I'm afraid.

What are you afraid of, Barbara?

Swear to me you won't tell anybody.

What has happened to you?

A man.

A man has done that to you.

Has a man done that to you, Barbara?

Why?

How could he?

Did he rape you?

Who?

I didn't know him, only by sight,

at the library.

He started harassing me.

I don't know, I think he followed me...

Enough, please. Drop it.

How does he look like?

I'll be damned! Pitagoras!

- How are you?

- What's up?

What are you doing here?

- I've come to see you.

- Really?

When were you released?

- It'll be one year next month.

- One year, my god.

Come in, please.

How good to see you, really.
