Paradise: Love Page #2

That's fine.

First the key, then the condom.

Do you have change?

I'll get it later.

That's all right. Keep it.

That's okay.

Wait, do you have a condom?

Cool, fine.

Which way?

There?

- Room number 7, here.

I feel my feelings. Come on, Mommy.

It doesn't matter.

Everything okay?

- Yeah.

I'm the carving man.

- No, thank you.

I'm a specialist for carving.

- No, thank you.

How long you stay for?

- A long time. I'll come tomorrow.

The day after tomorrow.

- Good morning.

Hey there. Everything okay?

Even if you speak German,

I still won't buy from you.

Welcome.

- I'm not buying.

I don't have any money.

- No problem.

Tomorrow, or the day after.

- Our boat, our boat!

Want to go for a boat ride?

- What?

I really want to be by myself.

Please. Please!

- Here, Africa. Everybody friends.

Alone? Don't be afraid.

- I'm not afraid.

Tomorrow we can do everything.

The day after, pole-pole.

I'm not afraid.

You want me to get mad?

You understand "mad"?

Do you know what mad is?

Mad is...

Excuse me.

The reef is out there.

Today only look.

- Only looky-looky.

Back off, guys. Quit hassling her.

We were only showing her stuff.

We'll see, Munga.

- Okay.

Something sharp.

- Are you hurt?

A sea urchin.

It's exhausting

when everyone wants to go with you.

I don't like...

Disturb, no disturbance.

No disturb.

It's not good.

- Do you speak a little German?

Yes.

- Good.

I speak....

I speak a little German.

Great.

Hello, sweetheart. It's Mommy.

I'm so sorry.

I forgot to call yesterday.

Please don't be mad.

But the sun knocked me out.

I was so beat, I fell asleep at six.

Love you. You should be happy.

It's probably cool where you are.

And here it's sweltering. Bye bye!

I wish someone

would gaze into my eyes.

You know?

I know exactly what you mean.

Same here.

They're simply not able to.

- Nope.

I don't like it

because they see my crow's feet.

Who cares?

- If he looks too close.

I don't like them doing that

because...

I mean,

really looking at you as a person.

Not just the surface. Deep into

your pupils, into your soul.

Seeing what's inside,

past your crow's feet and fat bum.

Into your eyes.

Right into your eyes.

You're right.

My problem is

if they look too close,

they see how ugly I am.

Come on, you're young and fresh!

- No way! I'm not young.

What can I say?

- I wish I looked like you.

I'd get a divorce. But with my looks?

- I was totally frustrated, you know?

I couldn't imagine having an affair.

My husband was always

criticizing my looks.

My hair... I would've done anything.

- Your hair looks great.

He was critical of everything.

I didn't dare undress

in front of another man.

Really?

- Yes.

Have you ever thought

of having any work done?

Liposuction looks terrific.

- No way.

Liposuction's the best.

I'd need a full-body liposuction.

The works.

A total renovation!

No, but looking into your eyes...

It's dumb, but...

It means being seen as a person

and not just as a body.

Looking past your saggy breasts,

wrinkles, fat ass...

That they see all of you,

that they look with their heart.

You were born in a house like that?

And your village?

Do you do these tours often?

Not so often.

Do you come here with all the women?

- No, only you!

Do you bring all the women?

- No!

What? Tell me!

Tell me the truth.

How many women have you brought here?

This way, darling.

- "Darling"?

Darling.

Forever.

Love is everlasting.

Do you think that?

Well...

I think

that love isn't always forever.

It's different in Africa?

In Africa love is forever?

That'd be nice.

This is my house.

In Africa, when guests come,

the men must go and buy palm wine.

I'll come back.

- You're going now?

But you're coming back?

- Yes, right back.

Is that a joint?

No, I never smoked one.

- Hold on.

Isn't it dangerous?

Give me.

Yes, slowly.

Everything no problem?

Everything no problem?

For you?

- For you?

If we walk like this...

- Yes?

Everyone will think we're together.

But?

I can't believe it.

I can't believe it... Careful!

People think that...

My smile?

Don't tweak me, okay?

Don't tweak me.

- What? What is tweak?

Don't always tweak me.

Understand? I don't tweak you there.

Understand?

You have to be gentle.

Gentle?

- Gentle. Like this?

Softly.

Look into my heart.

Say it:
"Look into my heart."

- "Look into my..."

Into your heart...

Look into my heart.

Look into my...

You're

so much more beautiful than me.

Really?

Beautiful woman.

How can I believe you?

How can I believe you?

Should I show you?

- Yes.

Should I show you?

- Yes!

No, it's...

Do you really think it's good?

How I do?

Two things at once?

Both?

- No, kiss and stroke my breast.

But don't tweak me, okay?

- Okay. Slowly.

We'll bargain later.

Careful!

Take off my shoes?

This is my sister.

And this is her daughter.

Other one sick, in hospital.

What's wrong?

Sister... her husband went away.

Husband is gone.

She's his daughter.

And me, every month

must give her money...

In hospital?

Money. Money.

Money.

- Yes, well...

It's expensive? There's no Medicare?

- 20,000.

20,000?

Well, I...

20,000 is a bit much, isn't it?

Wait, I'll give you...

Let me see how much I have.

Wait, I have...

Ten...

Fifty... Yes, fifty. Okay?

It's not enough, not enough.

Yes, but that's a lot.

I'll have to change some more money.

Or else I won't have any.

- Okay.

Was I wrong not to give more?

Was it dumb?

Okay, I'll give some more.

Give her another 5,000.

Give her another...

Hold on.

Give her another 2,000, okay?

Here's 1,000.

1,000.

And that should be okay, right?

Another one. More.

- Yes, but 7,000 is...

Seven? Okay, eight, but...

Then I won't have any money.

Give her that.

And wish her all the best, okay?

I have many things in my head.

What exactly?

I tell you.

Dad sick a long time.

Your dad's sick?

- Yes, heart problems.

And you give me no money.

What do you want?

What do you want?

I don't know. I don't know.

No Munga.

Get lost! Get lost!

You idiot!

I don't love you.

- I love you a lot.

You do?

Then leave me alone.

If you love me, leave me alone,

and don't tell me lies about Munga.

I know, you desire much love.

And I can really give you love.

Munga now having fun

with Kenyan woman.

Why you no come with me?

I don't want to!

I want to finish my beer and go.

- Just once.

I give you real love. just once.

Try how it is.

We tried once already, thanks.

- Now. Today.

No, thanks.

- I give you...

What?

What? I don't understand.

I can tell you.

- Yes?

I care you.

What? I don't understand.

- I care you.

You care me Munga?

What do you mean?

Speak properly!

German!

Why?

You're just jealous.

- I'm not jealous.

You are, I see your game.

- I have love.

Please. Please.

Go with me to my apartment, my house.

- No.

I give everything.

Why?

- No why. It's over. Finished.

I don't like you. I don't like you!

What?

Don't be so arrogant.

What's this, "I know I love you"?
