when we spoke on the phone, did you know i was blonde?
why not? you heard my voice?
i don't know. i guess she must have called him john? i'm mak- ing tea. would you like some?
well, he just said, come on, hurry up, will you, because it's starting to snow again.
no, it has a mind of its own.

music composition .  and cello .
have you been here long?
i'm sorry. i'll get my things.
i don't think so .  no one comes here at the weekends .
i suppose i'm the worst witness you've ever had?
well, some cars sound fat and some cars sound thin, and this kind of car sounded "hollow" .
if i came to the diner with you, would you bring me back?
that's alright. you suddenly reminded me of him .  he was standing right where you are, kind of breathless, like you.
it was probably the wind.
hamlet. have you read it?
you should. it's wonderful.
are you wearing a uniform?
oh.
i'm sorry .  i don't like sitting in the middle of a restaurant .  i feel like everyone's looking at me .
are you married?
you just asked me to ask you questions.
"thoughts that lie too deep for tears."
no, wordsworth .  do you like poetry?
do you pray?
you said, you were in the bad lands?
sorry?
coz i wanted to feel the snow on my face .  i think that's when i heard her call him john?
you've already asked me that .
i really liked margie .
have you known her long?
i know what you're like .
ross told me.
he said you're quite chubby. and you have a nervous tick.
just your age.
fifty-seven .  i don't mind .
that was the "hollow car," john.
i wanted it to be a surprise.
i know.
coz you hardly said a word since you got here. but you been thinking pretty loud .
i don't think so .  he said the police had been calling .  want- ed to ask me some more questions .
no i'm not.
alright, i'm worried about christmas. i wish i hadn't told him i'd be back .
wouldn't it be better if i cook it? you said, you can only boil?
when did john divorce?
what was she like?
what does that mean?
you think he still loves her?
i haven't worn heels since i was 16. i don't think i could walk in these?
you think john would like it?

i know what you look like. excuse me.
i can't walk in these shoes .
why can't i stay with you?
why?

i'm going back to the institute.
don't say that. don't you dare say that .  i believe you .
then explain it to me. i got enough darkness, don't i?
why does he want to kill me?
i can't identify him .
then why didn't he kill me?
kiss me, john .  kiss me i love you, kiss me again i love you .  are my lips lying to you? kiss my mouth is my mouth lying to you? he. was. here.
i just remembered something .
i heard it hiss, twice.
you gotta stop drinking, darling.
