Through the Forest Page #2

---

We have to talk.

l have to know what Renaud wants.

He'll give other signs.

lt's all nonsense, believe me.

Forget it fast and good luck.

Goodbye, miss.

l'll try again.

Tomorrow.

Shouldn't you just forget?

Yes.

So it's impossible.

l'll never find him.

Renaud wasn't there.

l didn't feel him.

Hippolyte isn't Renaud.

That medium is useless.

But you believed her.

She got it wrong.

Renaud drove into a tree

in a forest.

lt wasn't in the ocean.

RENUNClATlON

Please don't!

-There's no light because of you.

- Please!

- lsn't 10 days in the dark enough?

- Please!

Look at the state you're in!

Roxane and her stupid ideas!

Look at the results.

- Relax, it's over.

- Stopped thinking about it?

l've stopped thinking about it.

l've stopped thinking.

l'm white, all white inside. Or black.

Black rather.

Hi, Julien, it's Berenice.

No news.

She was in Tokyo last week.

After that l don't know.

She'll come home

when she feels like it.

She needs to be alone a bit, l think.

Don't you worry.

Goodbye, Julien.

lf you want my opinion,

Roxane will never see that guy again.

She was weird before she left,

wasn't she? Totally confused.

Where are you?

Here.

Renaud doesn't come at night

any more.

Where is he?

Come back to us. We're waiting for you.

Life's waiting for you.

Life...

What's there to live for?

Do you know?.

Do you know or not?

Then tell me.

lt's hard to say.

We each have our own reasons.

What's yours, then?

Well, beauty.

The beauty of the world.

The sun this morning,

the light, fresh air.

There's no more fresh air in nature.

lt's all polluted now.

Don't overdramatize.

The earth's living on borrowed time.

Mankind, too. Everyone knows that.

Then you have to fight.

Fight those who want

to destroy the planet.

That's something to live for.

lt's a lost cause.

They have the might.

They have the guns.

They torture.

They kill.

Find something else, Berenice dear.

Love!

Love. You're lucky in love?

- Not all the time.

- Why not?

lt's impossible...

- You've known Antoine how long?

- 7 1/2 years.

Why don't you live together?

We're fine this way.

We're very independent, you know.

No, that's not why.

The truth is you don't give enough

of yourselves.

You don't let yourselves go.

You're afraid to make

a real commitment.

Roxane, with all her lovers,

is like that, too.

Everyone's like that.

But Renaud wasn't.

You meet someone like Renaud

only once in a lifetime.

Your idea of love

is too uncompromising.

Maybe.

lf you think living together is proof

that you're letting yourself go...

- That's it exactly.

- No, it isn't.

We'll live together

when we have children.

A child is a good reason for living.

A child is wonderful.

A child is a future loser.

You're so gloomy about everything.

lt's frightening.

You're right, l'll shut up.

Can you put some music on?

Renaud's record?

Okay. True, we're talking too much.

We don't know what we're saying.

NlGH

Renaud?

l must be dead.

What should l do?

Where should l go?

But l don't feel any pain.

Am l dead or not?

You seem different.

l don't know.

Two days in a coma is long.

You have to wait a while

before things are normal again.

ls it true they said l was dead?

They call it clinical death.

ENCHANTMENTS:

ln Roxane's book,

the one with the green cover...

And?

l remember reading that some people

declared dead, clinically dead,

come back to life transformed,

with certain powers.

What kind of powers?

lt depends on the person.

Cut it out. This silliness

has gone far enough.

When she came out of her coma,

you called it a miracle.

lt was the emotion.

- That's when the real questions come.

- Cut the esoterics.

lt helped calm me.

Don't switch roles.

l think l want to be alone.

We're not leaving you alone

at a time like this.

By the way, did you know

Roxane met a guy in Tokyo?

She wants to marry him.

Well, we're still talking it over.

lsn't that great?

The funny part is that Berenice

also decided to get married.

To Antoine, naturally.

Nothing to say?

You don't know why you're marrying.

You're afraid. You're confused.

You cling to what you can

before you die.

- Don't start that again.

- lt's the truth.

You're so sure of yourself.

You think only of death. You're morbid.

Life isn't death.

Leave now. l want to be alone.

No way.

Then let me go.

l don't know why l'm getting married.

l'm afraid.

l'm confused. l'm clinging

to what l can before l die.

What are you talking about?

Roxane!

Come back!

What got into her?

l don't know why l'm getting married.

l'm afraid.

l'm confused. l'm clinging

to what l can before l die.

Thank you.

TlDE OF LOVE

Something wrong?

Catherine!

What is it?

Tell me.

What are you staring at?

Get lost!

Tell me what's wrong.

Get out of here!

Armelle...

l kept you waiting. l'm sorry.

These are for you.

Something wrong?

Armelle, what is it?

Well?

What's wrong?

Here.

l'm sorry.

l'm sorry, my love.

Renaud!

How long have we been making love?

Renaud...

it's you.

This is your body.

PURE HAPPlNESS

My love.

Speak to me.

l've always felt your soul

more strongly than l have mine.

lt's inside you that l find myself.

More.

We're so close.

We can't tell where one of us ends

and the other begins.

You're quiet.

l'm listening to you.

You talk and it's my heart

that l hear.

Make love to me.

My love.

More.

How long has it been?

We've been making love for 32 days.

lt will last all our lives.

Your English has improved.

l can really go to New York, you know.

Have you found a hairstyle?

Sure l have.

Like this.

l also know your latest song.

Are you listening?

How long has it been?

l don't know any more.

lt doesn't matter.

Nothing matters now.

Just you and me.

CALL:

Armelle...

lt's me, Renaud.

Armelle, where are you?

Armelle, come back.

Come.

l'm coming.

l'm here.

Come.

l'm coming.
