I write these words to dwell in your absence.

La Belle

This is the beginning of my writing.

And my role...

...is now like a cry yearning for you.

She returns.

Are you surprised?

Yeah...

Come in.

What brings you here?

I saw the lights on so I came up.

Can I stay?

Where's your stuff?

This is all...

Are you going to help me unpack?

She always acted as if she would stay.

But who knows when she'll disappear again?

Dummy.

I'm always trying to find meaning in all her aspec

And...

...it trembles me with fear.

It's a present.

What does it mean?

Look closely and you'll find out.

What's this?

My love...

The place I don't want to reach...

At the very place you wait for me,

you love me even if I'm not there.

What did you say?

Say it again.

Say it one more time...

Then if I leave...

Who?

The person you love...

How is it sleeping with me?

Actually, I'm more curious.

What?

Women receive other bodies.

I wonder what it's like.

When the wave breaks...

To be exact...

Well, what happens is...

The wave takes form.

But you don't feel the form,

it's like an emotion.

Does it make sense?

Kind of.

When I feel this,

I feel like I can forgive everything.

Sounds beautiful.

What does?

Being a women.

Then answer me.

What?

How I am...?

I want to know.

Everything's good about you.

Like every women?

Only you.

Your body.

My body?

Yeah.

I can never answer what she wants.

What she asks of me,

I tell her anything I can.

I have to go.

Now?

It won't take long.

Do you need a ride?

No.

I grant countless meaning

to the littlest of her expressions.

I've nearly become a prisoner.

And, I'm compromising myself.

I'm happy now,

but I can't get closer...

In the end, I see her everyday,

but she's never in my reach.

Do I get paid for the interview?

How long have you been posing nude?

For two years.

Isn't it hard?

What do you mean?

It's a special line of work...

What's special?

How is it?

Is it fun?

Do you work cause it's fun?

Sounds like I'm being interviewed.

Why?

Hello?

Yeah...

It hurts.

Be gentle.

Stop it.

I'm just listening to your stomach.

It's making strange noises.

I'm just hungry.

Are you very hungry?

Yeah.

I was on my feet all day.

Eat slowly.

I missed you.

In that short of time?

I missed you like crazy.

I like the sound of that.

Why?

It turns me on.

Then it's a present.

I missed you. I missed you like crazy.

I can't believe you didn't fall with these small feet.

-It's amazing. -I fall sometimes.

Do it some more.

It looks like a strawberry.

It's a cherry.

It's a strawberry.

No! It's a cherry!

Do you know what love is?

When I'm gone, everything's over, right?

I wanted to hear your voice one last time.

I'm almost there. Don't hang up.

I really care for you. I think about you everyday.

I wish I had a cure for this.

I sound crazy, right?

Can't you help me then? Please?

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

Don't show your face again.

I'm sorry.

Who was it?

Who?

The guy who made you cry?

I forgot him.

I'm curious.

Why?

I'm just interested.

There's nothing interesting.

Who cares anyway?

That's more of a reason.

It's interesting how people change.

He's nothing special.

Just hurt my feelings a little.

That's all.

Why?

Are you interviewing me too?

It's just good to love someone.

I don't fall in love.

Are you mad?

I'm tired. I'm going to sleep.

She still loves him.

Who?

Yes. I'll be there soon.

I want to sleep.

But I can't.

I keep crying.

Then stay here.

I really loved him.

I can't forget him.

He won't get out of my mind.

I feel good.

Hold me.

Her pain absorbs me.

Aren't you afraid?

Huh?

Of what?

What if you found out

my life was still miserable 10 or 20 years later,

and even worse than now.

What would you do?

If it was true, then I'd help end your life.

What about you?

I don't know.

It's a novel.

There's too many coincidences.

They encounter chance, and separate from it.

Then chance curses their fate.

They meet by chance again, and die like beggars.

When you think about it, everything is coincidence

Those people probably don't know how to love.

Only if they accept chance and love happily.

Even if they become unfortunate?

Then they should die.

At that very moment.

It sounds like my story.

I knew it.

Hello?

Yeah, it's me.

No, it's all right.

I'm coming now.

You still awake?

You're still mad at me.

I'm not.

You're lying.

I could tell from your body.

Don't be mad at me.

I can never tell my real feelings to her.

I can express anything with words,

but I can't with my body.

I'm sorry.

I still come back even when it seems over.

You hate me don't you?

I don't.

It hurts here.

I try to hide my words, but my body reveals all.

So all I can do is collapse.

Your changing masks make me nervous.

I feel like a different woman today.

What kind of woman?

A woman who wants to sleep.

Ever met this kind of woman?

A woman who really wants to sleep.

Think about it.

Wouldn't it upset you

if I thought about another woman while were in bed

Not at all.

Really?

It would never happen.

Touch it.

I want you now.

I can't imagine myself with another person.

That's what happens when you love someone.

I'm so sorry for bothering you.

I'm cold...

How was she?

Who?

The woman you're thinking about.

She's a hurting woman.

She must know how to love.

She's a woman I can't understand.

It's hard to explain.

Really?

When you're in love, that's what happens.

How have you gotten by?

Why?

Just curious sometimes.

Sometimes?

Yeah

How you lived...sometimes.

I lived a boring life.

Aren't you bored of a woman like me?

No...

It doesn't sound sincere.

It is.

Tell me if you get bored.

I don't like myself too.

But it's weirder that you're sticking with me.

I like you being here.

What time is it now?

Why?

I have to go to work.

You have to leave now?

Why?

Uh...nothing...

She comes to a place where I've made and always waited for her.

So when she doesn't return

I imagine her with me.

Waiting is like insanity.

Tell me a fun story.

It probably won't be fun if I tell it.

Then...

Tell me about a novel you recently read.

A prostitute,

a thief,

she was a crazy mother of a child.

Sounds interesting.

What about the father?

A teacher.

It's boring.

No, it isn't.

Read it later.

So what's it really about?

It's about two lovers who can't forget yesterday.

Sounds beautiful.

You said it sounds boring.

Not really.

..."Can't forget yesterday."

It's strange.

When you keep saying yesterday,

it sounds different every time.

Yesterday, yesterday, yesterday...

Thanks for all you've done.

Where are you going now?

I'm okay now.

Come back whenever you need someone.

I'm never going to let you go again.

It's a present.

What a plain guy.

Do you remember this song?

Doesn't her voice sound sexy?

Let's dance.

Hello?

...My friend's house.

Hello, hello?

Hello?

The phone got cut off.

Really?

No, I'm not busy. I'll be there.

Okay!

Hello? Hello?

Is it you?
