Then She Found Me Page #8

You need to just stick it.

- Thousands of Chinese girls...

- I'm not adopting a Chinese baby.

Then bend over.

- Is there anything I can do?

- No.

- Are you ready?

- Mm-hm.

Do you want to pray?

She does that. She prays.

- Want to say a little prayer or something?

- No.

- I'm so sorry to interrupt.

- What is the matter with you?

- Could you uh, give us a minute?

- Bernice, listen to me right now!

I'm sorry. Just a minute.

Just find us when you're ready.

We'll be around.

What?

- Why don't you wanna pray?

- What do you care?

I don't!

I don't give a sh*t, but you do!

You told me that. You pray

before you eat a bowl of spaghetti!

And now, right before

you do the most important thing

you'll ever do in your life,

suddenly you're not interested?

This is none of your business.

Get out of my way.

Say a prayer with me and I will.

I don't want to pray.

One stupid little prayer.

No!

Move!

Maybe you just don't want it badly enough.

You have no idea how badly I want it.

Then why won't you pray? Why?

Because I'm not gonna

hand this wish over to some...

whatever it is,

who's supposed to be loving, who...

who...

I had faith.

Oh.

I thought...

God was... good.

Maybe God is...

What?

Difficult.

Awful.

Complicated.

Like me?

It took the one man on earth who's right

for me and I dropped him on his head.

Right.

You did.

- How are we doing?

- We're done.

- I'm sorry.

- No problem.

Wait.

# Hear O Israel

# the Lord our God

What does that mean?

Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God,

the Lord is One.

What does that mean?

Listen, O Israel, the God of Love

and the God of Fear are one.

Well.

Hello.

Thank you for seeing me.

You're standing between me and my front

door, so, it's literally the least I could do.

I heard what happened.

I'm sorry I called the baby godforsaken.

It turns out she was.

I miss you.

Do you miss me?

What do you want, April?

I wanna look at you...

for a long, long time.

What else?

There's a chance my life may change

in a few hours. It may not, but it may...

and before it does,

I wanna say two things.

I know what I did to you.

To you in particular.

Like a worst nightmare kind of thing,

right?

I knew that.

Even at the time, I knew that.

- What else?

- I'll do it again.

I will.

I'll hurt you again and again.

Not like that.

You'd have to leave me

if I hurt you like that.

If we were together, you'd leave me

if I hurt you like that again, wouldn't you?

Yes. Yes, I would.

Good.

But I'll hurt you in other ways.

Little ways. I won't mean to, but I will.

And sometimes, I will mean to.

This is quite an offer you've worked up.

You'll hurt me, too, you know?

You'll hurt me and change on me.

You might leave me after you promise

you won't. How about that?

- I wouldn't.

- You might.

- But I wouldn't!

- But...

you might.

Yeah, I guess I might.

So?

- Oh, God!

- I know.

I'm sorry.

So?

Just need to get that little wine glass.

That's great.

Hey, where's your dad?

I got her.

I'll see you inside.

There is a Jewish story.

An ordinary Jewish joke.

A father was teaching his little son

to be less afraid, to have more courage.

"Jump," he said, "and I'll catch you. "

And the little boy trusted him,

and the little boy jumped.

And when his father caught him,

he felt filled with love.

And when he didn't, he was filled with

something else - something... more.

Life.

Amein.

# I'm gonna let you down,

I know that now

# Make you cry, I know I will

# And why should you believe

I would never leave

# Or that I'll be here still

# For all the by and by

# And hard as we try

# The bough breaks

and the cradle falls

# For everything I do

that will tear at you

# Let me say I'm sorry now

# So you could sing our song

# You can get it wrong

# You can kiss the rock of ages

# And in your wildest dreams

# You might see between

# The liars and the sages

# You can walk a while

# Down the mystery mile

# You can beat the drums of freedom

# And in love and war

# Through the rush and roar

# You just call 'em like you see 'em #

# Ooh, yeah, baby

# I wanna feel my earth turn over, babe

# In this hardened winter ground

# Feel my earth turn over, darlin'

# Till I'm rootless and unbound

# I wanna feel my body tremble

# When there's no one else around

# Just this cool, clear water runnin'

# In this love that I've found

# Hey, baby, see how it can be

# Every time you reveal yourself to me

# I'll come runnin'

# When I feel my baby calling now

# It's like a whisper in the sand

# When the softest rain is falling, darlin'

I will crumble in your hand

# Then when all that's left is wonder

# And no need to understand

# Well, this cool, clear water runnin'

# Will be all that I am

# Hey, baby

# Will be all that I am, all that I am

# Oh-oh,

ohh-ohh #

# O-o-o-ohh #
