Me and You Page #3

---

- I'll kill you if you don't go,

you b*tch! - I'm too sick, sh*t!

Olivia'? Olivia, Olivia...

I didn't mean to hurt you, please.

Please, help me.

I'm too sick.

Want me to call someone'?

No, get me something strong,

that makes me feel well,

I can't do this awake.

Stand by me, please.

Get me some sleeping pills.

I'm that close.

- A little sugar?

- No, thank you.

Get him off,

I don't like the dog on the bed.

- It's time to take him out.

- I already did.

- Lorenzo. Is that you'?

- Yes, Grandma.

Can you do me a favor?

Will you lower the bed'?

There, that's fine.

I have to go now though,

we've got lots of homework.

Won't you tell me

one of your stories'?

- Okay. Do you remember Olivia?

- Yes, Olivia.

Of course, she's my granddaughter.

Her mother was showy, but very nice.

- She was nice? - Yes.

She took me to Mt. Etna once.

It was beautiful.

You must go there.

And Olivia'?

Olivia'? Are you awake'?

- Finally! You were gone so long.

- Mission accomplished.

Awesome!

- Come on. Don't get mad.

- Why'? - Don't get mad.

I'm Ferdinando,

a friend of Olivia's.

- Who is this guy'?

- A friend, I called him.

- Why'?

- You didn't come back.

She said she wasn't well,

so I came to see

if she needed anything.

- We're old friends.

- I don't want him in here.

He shouldn't have

touched my computer.

Stop making such a big deal.

You've made my brother jealous.

Come here.

- We'd better go, I'll get your stuff.

- Where are you going'?

I don't feel like going all that way.

Please, Olivia,

you sleep, I'll drive

we'll be there in two hours

and you'll wake up by the sea.

- No, I want to stay with my brother.

- I'll take care of everything, c'mon.

- Do you really want one of my pieces?

- Yes, the street lamp with arms.

- But, could you pay for it now'?

- Sure. - Really? - Yes.

- Thank you. - I'll come back for you

if you want. Call me.

You're so sweet.

- Was that your friend with the horse'?

- No, are you crazy'? He's an old man'?

Maybe he was old,

but he was coming on to you.

Really?

Sh*t, I'm out of cigarettes.

- Want to see a movie?

- No.

I need to get some rest.

Good night, sweetheart.

So why did he give you all that money'?

Maybe he wanted to buy you.

I'll explain later.

I'm sleepy now.

Sicilians can be jealous,

but you... My goodness!

Fantastic.

Impressive.

"They live in colonies that can be

small units or tens of millions.

Often divided into

females, males and workers.

The workers can be

sterile or apterous.

The bigger ones can act like

soldier ants and defend the colony.

After mating, in general,

of the winged males and females,

the first often die

and the females lose their wings. "

No, the snow...

it's weird because

it's all soft and white and clean.

It's like wool,

it's like being in Paradise!

Then you look at the sky

and you realize you're on the ground.

Yesterday we went

to see these frozen waterfalls,

they looked frozen in time.

Next to them was this precipice

that was all brown.

There was some snow

but like it was dirty.

No, that gurgling is a stream

where we've stopped,

it's still flowing, I don't know why

it's not frozen...

it's pretty cold.

Yes, we should be back

around lunchtime.

You don't need to come and get me,

I'll get a lift from Pennacchini,

that tall guy, in my classroom.

Come on, Mom, I have to go.

Talk to you later.

Thirty-eight.

Thirty-eight!

- Are you awake'?

- No.

How much do you sleep'?

You're so tanned,

you look so handsome! Darling!

I missed you so much. Come in.

Lorenzo'?

- Lorenzo. What time is it'?

- I don't know.

It's night time. I'm better,

you know'?

But I have to eat something.

We were invaded by ants.

I saved what I could

but they ate everything.

There's nothing left to eat.

I have to eat something healthy,

not your junk.

- Are those the house keys'?

- Yes, why'? What are you going to do'?

- I'm going upstairs for some food.

- No, you can't!

- You're nuts!

- I won't get caught!

Yes, you will!

You're nuts!

Hey, are you staying or coming'?

C'mon.

I'm begging, it's the end.

Which key is it'?

Come on, I'm hungry! Idiot.

Be quiet.

- Come on.

- Be quiet!

- Come on, I'm hungry.

- Hungry, hungry, hungry!

No, I'll do it.

Olivia!

Go away. Go away.

Get away from there.

Please, go away, please.

Go away, go away!

- Have some more beer.

- No, I don't like it.

It's our last night, we'll get out

of this prison tomorrow.

- C'mon.

- Okay.

Yesterday,

when your friend was here...

- What did you sell him'?

- What kind of work'?

- One of my works.

- Photographs.

- Then I think I saw them.

- Where'? - On the computer.

Sh*t. I forgot.

- Do you like them'?

- They're nice. - Nice?

- No, I mean, they're great.

- Fantastic.

Let's see this one.

You know until a few years ago

I took photos. I did video art.

I even had some exhibitions.

I won an important award

when I was 18.

- Yeah, right...

- It's true.

- I went to Los Angeles.

- Yeah, right...

- I did.

- Of course.

But then I got messed up with dope

and I stopped.

The photos you saw

are part of a series called...

- "I am a wall".

- What wall?

It's a metaphor,

basically it's me becoming that wall,

entering the wallpaper,

going inside the plaster.

Like a lizard...

Not like a lizard.

Virtually, I wanted to ale-materialize.

Me and you, if we didn't have a point

of view anymore, we'd be the same.

Yes, I mean without a point of view,

we'd stop being against each other

and accept reality for what it is,

without judging it.

- Like... Do you know Buddhism?

- Yes.

- But you're not a Buddhist at all.

- Of course I am.

- No, you're always pissed!

- It's not easy to be a Buddhist.

Besides, it's drugs

that made me mean.

Before, I could pass through walls.

- Yeah, right...

- Really! Sure.

- Do you like this dress?

- It's beautiful.

Want me to put a different one on'?

Countess Nunziante is my size.

Alright.

Hi, Pablito, look at me.

Do you like my bow'?

Nice, like an Easter egg.

I understand nothing

of retro punk, drunkard.

I prefer serious things.

- Who are you texting'?

- My friend with the horses.

I'm setting up a place

to meet tomorrow.

Tell me the name of a nice cafe

where he can pick me up.

Bar Afrodite, in Piazza Verdi.

They make good sandwiches.

- Is he your boyfriend? - No.

I just had an affair with him.

But when we met

he was with someone else.

- Did he leave her for you'?

- He cheated on her with me.

After we met,

we couldn't live without each other.

But after a few months

he got back with her.

- Were you upset?

- A little. But I understood him,

You don't break up for a junkie,

that's normal.

But...

two weeks ago he sent me a text.

He said he's made up his mind,

he wants to get back with me.

Only if I kick the habit though.

What's he like'?

Tall, with curly hair,

green eyes.

He's a graphic designer in Rome.

He wants to quit everything

and move to the country with me.

- Where'?
