Unforgivable Page #6

---

I'm sick

of seeing a hysterical whiner.

She's worse than mom.

What good are two wailing women?

Do I need that?

It's hard to be loved.

Don't talk crap.

I live in 6 square meters.

F*** being loved!

What's in this hole for me?

Insanity, suicide...

I need something to hold onto.

Can I help you?

I hid 200 grand.

It won't get the bank off our back,

But it'll buy an apartment

to rent out

To the Americans and French,

or even Indians.

In 6 years, I get out,

sell up and cash in.

But it can't be in my name.

In whose name then?

Yours is the only one I see.

I'll give you 15%, okay?

If it's dirty money, I can't help.

It's nothing illegal.

There's no risk.

It's completely illegal.

How do I explain away

having 200,000 euros to spend?

Set up shell companies.

Everyone does.

Not everyone.

Not me, I can't.

You're chicken?

Yes.

Why not ask your friends?

My friends...

they'd clean me out in seconds.

I can only trust you.

I'm sorry.

You're sorry?

Jesus, you have a nerve.

You know, Cherubini,

For all your fancy airs,

Your life's no better than mine.

You're one of those people

who should have wings

To keep well clear of the filth.

There's a lot of filth down here,

and I don't have wings.

Spring

(four months later)

So you found a job?

It's my trial period.

I'll know next week if they keep me.

Is it going well?

Yes.

It's outdoors,

not cooped up in an office.

How's Anna Maria now?

Not too good.

She keeps saying she's tired.

You still get into fights?

It happens.

Quit staring at me.

Is that what you wanna see?

Why did you have to go and save me?

You're early.

- Here, let me take those.

- Thanks.

Why do you come when he's here?

It's a chance to see him.

Otherwise...

you used to say,

Enjoying your own company

proves you're a grown-Up.

Help me sit down

And get a bit of a tan.

Hold on...

Ill do your feet.

How's that?

Is the cushion okay?

I'll go see what he's up to.

I bought cherries on the rialto.

You want to taste them?

- They're not very sweet.

- The first of the season.

I know she loves them.

Anyway, that's it. Winter's over.

I got lucky.

The pipes didn't freeze.

I'm glad to say

Ive nearly finished my book.

Mission accomplished.

Mission accomplished?

Sure. That's why I came

to Venice, remember.

What's up?

What's that look for?

Tell me, do you still want me?

And you?

It's all I think of.

I reheated your soup.

You didn't touch it.

What's up?

I can't get out of bed today.

What are the gloves for?

Jrmie bought them.

What for?

When he touches me.

Otherwise, he can't...

he comes to see you?

Not often. He doesn't realize.

Living here together was impossible.

He needs his freedom.

Where's he live now?

In a hostel.

I think.

He doesn't talk much.

Mathilde just got in from Paris.

I called her.

She's in her room.

She's in a really bad way.

She'd love to see her son,

but he's not been into work.

- Find him!

- I've looked all over.

Everywhere!

Stop it!

Are you crazy?

Let him go.

Warn them about the mosquitoes.

Am I interrupting you?

I came to say goodbye.

This region's finished.

I'm headed south.

Rome first.

If I don't like it, Ill keep going.

This is your farewell tour?

It's a quick tour.

I don't know anyone.

Can't I come in?

You went at me hard at the cemetery.

I still get a whistling in my ear.

You saw a doctor?

He prescribed me some drops.

Apparently, it'll pass.

I promised your mom

Id look after you

And I went and beat you up.

People do things like that,

Without knowing why.

Have a seat.

You said goodbye to Judith?

I'd rather not.

Why?

I'd be ill at ease.

She said you had a fling.

It was just one time.

It was soon over.

Okay...

Ill be going.

I'm not like you.

I can't talk to women.

A guy like me,

Judith isn't interested.

Anyway, Im young.

Time's on my side.

Will you be gone long?

I've no idea. I'll see.

Goodbye.

- What are you doing?

- Opening the mail.

Here...

crossroads

Your ticket was inside.

Why didn't you say?

The 17th's in two days.

I didn't set a date.

Don't blame me, it's my publisher.

Have a good trip.

You should come with me.

I have a job here.

Haven't you noticed?

Come on...

come with me, Judith.
