MATHILDA

Léon?

I think I'm falling in love with you.

Léon's milk goes the wrong way. She calmly said it, laying on the bed, spread arms.

Like a simple truth. Léon got milk everywhere.

MATHILDA

...Anyway, this impressed you!

He dries himself, but doesn't reply.

MATHILDA

It's strange, being in love...

It's the first time for me...

LÉON

How do you know it's love, if you've never been in love before?... It may be palship... or the love you can have with a brother or a father...

How can you know?

MATHILDA

...Because I feel it.

LÉON

Where?

Mathilda puts a hand on her stomach.

MATHILDA

Here... in my stomach... it's hot.

She turns, takes his hand and puts it on her stomach.

MATHILDA

I always had a knot... No longer...

Léon pulls off his hand. He stands up and nervously walks.

LÉON

Mathilda, I'm... I'm very happy you've got no more stomach ache, but... this doesn't mean anything.

I'm late for work and I don't like being late for work.
