7) Int. Halmstad - Runa's home - kitchen - Morning
The radio plays pop music. Runa sits at the
table and eats breakfast. In the background we can hear someone taking a shower.
CLOSE UP Runa
Deeply in thoughts she takes a sip of her
coffee.
Cut To:
Lasse on the balcony.
Cut To:
Piece of paper on the table: HOMECOMING
Cut To:
Lasse dressed in a bathrobe standing in the
kitchen door.
Cut To:
Runa startles up from her thoughts.
Lasse
(cheerful)
Good morning!
Runa
(apathetic)
Hey.
Lasse
Can I turn off the radio?
Runa
(to herself)
Strange ritual!
Lasse
What do you mean by that?
Runa
Every morning you ask me the same thing!
Just turn it off. I am not even listening to it!
Lasse
I just wanted to be polite.
Lasse turns off the radio.
Runa
Yea...
(sighs)
I know...
Lasse
(tender)
Didn't you sleep well?
The joy in his face fades. He looks deeply
into her eyes.
Lasse
(sceptical)
Or... are you still angry because of
yesterday?
Runa
(looks down)
I don't know...
Lasse
What is it? You are very quiet this
morning... I've never seen this side of you.
Runa looks up to him. Her eyes are wet.
Lasse
What is it with you?
Runa
(depressive)
You have no idea what you mean to my
sister...
Lasse
What are you driving at?
Cut To:
Piece of paper on the table: HOMECOMING
Lasse (V.O.)
You found the letter...?
Cut To Runa
Runa
(nervous)
No! I mean, what are you talking about?
Lasse
I am talking about, that I am going to say
farewell to the two of you quite soon...
Runa struggles to retain her composure. Her
face screws up. The confirmation that Lasse wants to leave her paralyses her
voice.
Runa
What does that mean ... 'quite soon'?
Lasse
Within a few days.
Runa
In... in a few days?
Runa regains her composure and gets angry.
Runa
Of course! That's no problem, is it! Go! ...
Just leave! Go without warning. Just like you came into our lives!
Lasse
Why this anger, Runa? Let us depart as
friends. You and Ibsy will stay in my heart. Always.
Runa
(outraged)
So that's it? You, you come into my life,
take everything you need ... and leave regardless of the consequences?
Lasse
Please don't be unfair. You were looking for
someone to help take care of your sister. And I have been there for her. Now
it's time for me to move on... You will find someone.
Runa
(angry)
How can you be so selfish?
Lasse
(resigned)
I was hoping you would understand.
(pause)
In this situation, I think it is for the
best, if I move on as soon as possible. You should know better...
Lasse sadly shakes his head and goes from the
kitchen.
