Romance for Bugle Page #2

---

I'll wait for you at the pond.

Home.

I have to go home.

Wait.

Have some rest and

we'll go on tomorrow.

Why are you so angry on me?

C'mon.

Home!

Home.

[fair music playing]

[water fizzling]

[distant fair music]

[fair music]

[music, noise]

Father:
It's running, it's flying,

like at Pepa from Prague.

Hanging, whirling, swinging

and at world funnily looking.

It's beginning mr. sandwich,

it's beginning!

We'll go there and back,

we'll be back after two feasts!

What a fun!

Pay attention, dear travellers,

we're increasing speed!

We'll fly from a top to top,

carefully with your bum...

...per hats,

so that they won't fly away.

It's a ride of love,

the wind ruffles your hair.

The lady here says that nothing lasts

forever, nor a love to a girl.

And that's why we have to end.

Who liked it,

can stay,

who didn't,

can stay twice.

Hey, hey, our marry-go-round

calls you!

[music playing]

Give me another rifle.

[boys laughing]

[boys laughing]

It's running, it's flying,

like at Pepa from Prague.

We'll fly from a top to top,

carefully with your bum...

...per hats,

so that they won't fly away.

What a fun, what a ride,

what a fun, what a fun,

how already said mr. Man

- Where is Terina?

- In the car.

Father:
Increasing speed!

It's a ride of love,

your hair will get rough.

What a fun!

The lady here says that nothing lasts

forever, nor a love to a girl.

Hey, hey, our marry-go-round

calls you!

Hey, hey...

What do you think?

Is something worrying you?

And you?

Yes.

What?

I don't know.

Look, a ring.

- Do you want such one?

- Yes.

Wait, so...

- We're so nice.

- Hm.

What if we got married?

Well, why not?

- You want to be a teacher.

- But I don't want to, my dad does.

Don't be, then!

Dad would like so much!

- I like rather to stray, you know?

- I'm seventeen and three sundays.

And I'll be twenty.

Our dad would buy us a new car.

We would go to a cabin in winter,

we've got one at Zlatniky.

[laugh]

Do you eat a lot?

Dad sends me when he gets paid,

but it's only for milk and a bun.

- Sometimes I go to my aunt.

- Good for you.

- What?

- Well, that you're not get used to eat.

You'll manage at our place.

- What about Victor?

- [laugh]

Him?

Father:
Will you say or don't?

Mother:
You can't answer?

Father:
You'll not stray

at nights, remember that!

Your too soft.

What if I'd take responsibility

for her?

Wait a moment.

She's still a child.

What child? You sneak to me,

I wasn't even fifteen.

I don't want to wait anymore!

Next phase - a parson.

She won't go away,

offices has to declare her adult.

There'll be enough time in winter, no?

When there is no work.

Don't worry, I'll manage.

Ok then?

Well...

I promised her to you,

didn't I?

We'll drink tonight.

Shall we make it up?

The day after tomorrow,

we can still have a business here.

Hm.

Terina!

Get sour cherries

there to the bastard.

For children.

Let me out! Open up!

- We have to go there before dark!

- You're the boss!

The train is here!

Get in, hurry!

It's hot here, in the train.

- I'll open the window, yes?

- No, no, no, there'll be a tunnel soon.

We're in Krhanice,

w've got to go.

Carefully.

- Call in the boatman.

- He's coming.

- Do you think we'll get there?

- Sure.

- Do you have a ferry?

- I do.

What a water tonight.

Help me.

Help me off the raft.

Lend a lantern,

there's nothing to see.

We'll have to sleep here.

We'll go on tomorrow.

Oh no, I'm able to go.

[music playing]

- That's nice.

- What?

That you haven't gone yet.

We're going tomorrow.

[music playing]

- You know what?

- Hm?

I'm supposed to get married.

Do you?

Do I know him?

Well, you know.

The last one.

He'll go nuts.

- Who?

- Viktor, you know.

He sent me for sour cherries.

- They were good.

- Well.

Dad's sending me to Viktor.

He sticked at us

and for two years he's going only with us.

What should I do?

You have to know what.

What's a medusa?

Why?

When I'm ruffled, Viktor says

I look like a medusa.

- That's such a sea monster.

- [laugh]

I thought it's

some beautiful flower.

- Shall we talk still about him?

- I like you more.

Thousands time more

than you me.

-And do you like Viktor?

- No.

You know I don't.

Only you, you're

completely different.

Will it be always

like that?

Dad will be back tomorrow.

I prefer for him

not to see me.

- When he finds out, he'll kill me.

- How could it only...

Nobody's seen us.

Oh no.

In order for you to know,

I'm not studying, just fooling around.

Mum wants to get rid of you,

it's clear.

It'd be for the best,

if I am gone.

What'd they say,

if you would?

They'd get used to it.

Let's go together.

Well yes, but where to?

Anywhere!

What about there, today!

- How come? Wait.

- You said you like to stray.

If we want to,

we've got to go today. Come!

Are you afraid?

How can I go like this?

- Well, if you don't want...

- How come? I want!

What can happen to us?

We'll be together.

No, we might not...

Go and bring your things,

I'll take something too.

- We'll meet here.

- Come, when my parents get asleep.

Terina!

Terina!

Where is Terina?

You're asking for the ten time.

You sent her somewhere yourself.

[music playing]

Terka!

Terina!

Come out!

[Terina's crying]

Hey!

Don't hide!

I see you!

Both!

What do you want?

Where do you have her?

- Where do you have her?

- Whom?

Get out, you thief!

[noise of a match]

I've got to go home!

Lead me home!

Do you want to kill him?

Let him go, granpa!

We'll go immediately.

[Terina's crying]

What's up, grandpa?

Let me get warm here a little,

I beg you, mr. Berka.

Let me be here.

Come then.

Is it you... Vojtisek...

You've recognized me, grandpa?

Lights up, so that

I can see you.

Thank goodness,

I'm at home.

Where's the dad?

He'll come tomorrow.

That's good,

that's good.

[distant music]

Why don't you sleep?

- What are you doing there?

- Oh, nothing.

We should cut through

the black currant in the garden.

It's not too light there.

I'm glad you're better.

Granpa!

Should I keep the lights on?

Granpa!

What could happend to us?

We'll be together.

Vojta!

Vojta!

[music playing from the pub]

Where were you?

And what about this finery?

No, no...

- So you want to escape!

- Let go, give it to me!

With the boy, don't you?

With the sprat!

I dealt with him nicely!

He won't be sticking his nose

even out of his house.

Don't you know people?

Would you go with a fair girl?

- I don't care! I'll escape anyway!

- Don't cry on me here!

Where is your cap?!

I won't send you

for the second time for anything.

The night trips are over.

And sleep, now!

Come, mum made a bed

at my place.

We're getting married, so what?

[music playing]

What's a medusa?

I thought,

it's some beautiful girl.

Vojta!

Come out!

Leave me, I can't!

It's warm there, isn't it?

Your hands are so cold!

- Granpa...

- Leave granpa be.

You'll gladly come eventually.

As soon as the comedian girl

is gone, don't you?
