"So you stay at home while he goes boozing every night?" "And probably has it off with others" "How do you know?" "And what of it?" "He fucks me as much when he gets home" " You enjoy telling me this?" " No, but you asked for it" "If you think he waits for you in bed while you're at work you'd better think again" "Listen, Andre, why should you care?" "Because hate seeing a girl like you having to pay a man to sleep with her" "Because that's what it is." "You keep him" "That's not true. don't keep him" "He's unemployed and broke. work and have money." "So pay." "OK?" "Prefer a loving man who fucks me and doesn't work to a dull rich man" "But if only he had some aspirations, some ambitions..." "If he had to work, he wouldn't fuck you as much" "Well, that's true like being with him because he's always available" "Don't you get bored?" "Only with men like you I'd never get bored" "What do you talk about?"

"Are you looking for stains?" "You're warped!" "Why should care?" "You show such interest" "Right, I'm off to bed" "Sleep well" "You're joking" "Have you seen this?" " It's rubbish" " No" "It isn't, it's quite good" "Go to sleep now" "May look at your magazine?" "I'm going to bed" "Goodnight" "You've made tea?" "I've got something in the pocket..."

" Yes can't, I'm going to the hospital" "Silly." "For a moment thought we were back to normal" "Are you all right?" " Does it hurt?" " Yes" " No, seriously?" " Yes" "Did it hurt badly?" "The stitching... did it hurt?" "It's hot in here" "Drink?" "There's water on the table" "It's tepid can't help it" "Move over a bit can move, but don't rock the bed" " All right?" " Great" " Don't scream like that" " Happy?" "No, I'm miserable" " Don't touch!" " I'm just stroking you" "He should save his breath for sex" "What are you doing here?" "We live round the corner now" " Are you all right?" " Of course" " What are you doing?" " Nothing much." "Shopping" "Well, must be going" "Nice smell" "I'll phone you, OK?"

"Turn you on, don't?" "Can't you see?" "do want you" "But like this, without moving" "Nice painting" "I'm pregnant." "It's Loulou want to keep the baby" "What month?" "Second..." "I'm not sure" "What does Loulou say?" "He's thrilled" "And you?" "I'm very happy" "Is that why you slept with me again?" "No, just felt like it don't know why" "Let's go" " I'll drive you home" " No, I'll get a taxi" "All right, I'll be there." "See you" "Been waiting long?" "We must go." "One of my mates is having problems" " What's wrong?" " Nothing" "Don't worry, I'll explain" " Come to dinner one evening" " I'm a good cook" "You do the cooking?" "Why, that's great" "So Marie-Jo let you out?" "If you go with him, I'm leaving" "But there's no risk!" "Do what you like, but won't be there when you come back wouldn't drag Loulou into anything risky" " What time do we meet him?" " Eleven" " Let's go, then" " A drink first?" "No, let's drive there slowly, calm ourselves down" "Where are we going?" "Champigny" " Don't be scared" " I'm not" "Stop sulking, then."

" Yes, to the living room" " Can we have a drink?" " Sure, you know where it is" "Be quiet, though" "Keep quiet, don't wake her up" "Give them all a drink" " Be quiet!" " Come on, we deserve a drink" "Get the glasses" "Let me show you something" "Nice place... oh, hell" " A beauty, isn't it?" " A real Santa Claus!" "Don't break it or we'll have to buy it" "Come, want to show you my little boy" "Oh yes, must go to work" "Hello" "All right?" "Well, we're waiting for you" "We'll go on waiting, then" "You are cheerful today" "Think I'm a fool?" "You never stop yawning and stretching" "Do pay you to see a face showing you've been screwing all night?" "OK, I'm a masochist" "But there's a limit." "And you yawn on purpose just to torment me" "Well, I've had it." "You aren't the only lay in the world, you know" "It's hell. thought could take it, but can't" "Shall leave now or wait till you get someone else?" "Get out!" "Now!" " May watch TV?" " Go ahead" "What is it?" "I'm going to get some fags, Loulou" "That's Nelly." "Lulu, a friend of mine" "What is it?" "You still love him?" "Oh, of course not" "You still love him." "That's why you're like this" "Slept with him again, didn't you?" "Where did you hear that?" "Someone told me" "Who told you such rubbish?"

"Ask Nelly" " 1,000 francs a month" " That's about it" " Well, that's not too high" " No, we're lucky" "What will you do when the baby comes?" "Why ask me?" "She's my sister." "I'm concerned hear you don't want to work do, just don't know what work could do" "How about being a taxi driver?" "Don't know" "They took away my license" "And working in a warehouse for 2,000 francs a month isn't for me" "What exactly can you do?" "Everything" "Everything and nothing" "That's not much, is it?" "How about running a cafe, for example?" "You need a fortune for that" "Who'll pay?" "If it's a success, it costs a lot" "If it isn't, it costs even more" "I'd like to help." "I'm ready to set you up if you have any ideas" "No rush" "I've never gone hungry yet" "The child won't go hungry either" "But given the choice, what would you like to do?"
