yes…
Antoine. It's clear. Is there a problem?
Emily. There is a little bit. How did you guess?
Antoine. Although I am not a psychologist in its purest form, but no one is in a hurry to share their joy with me either. They mostly carry problems – clean up, Uncle Antoine.
Emily. Judging by her friend's experience, Uncle Antoine is very successful at raking.
Antoine. But why not? So what's the gag?
Emily. The thing is… that I am…
Emily is a little lost from the word that does not fit into the framework of the situation, but Antoine looks at her quite calmly, amicably and openly, waiting for an answer.
Emily. Ahem. Yes. the thing is… that I'm… married.
Antoine. Oh! Congratulations! (Looks at Emily's reaction). Or do I sympathize?
Emily. Here! Yes, I'm sorry – it's more appropriate.
Antoine. Why is that? Why is marriage a burden?
Emily. Because I'm not married to someone I'd like to be.
Antoine. That's the number! Were you dragged down the aisle by force?
Emily. Well… Not that…, but also not that and… It all started spinning so fast there… I see she's already married. I looked closely – not for that!
Antoine. Understood, well, then let's remember your once happy free life!
Antoine pours cognac, treats Emily again.
Antoine. Without clinking glasses!
They drink.
Emily. Ah, I would like to have a snack…
Antoine. Ah, the moment!
Antoine brings a platter of fruits and treats them. Emily is helping herself.
Emily. Is it possible to resurrect this happy free life of mine?
Antoine. Why not? May. Life is yours! It's up to you to decide what to do with it. If you want, become happy, if you want, unhappy, if you want, alternate! Whatever you want. Everything happens in this world, everything is possible, everything happens.
Emily (flirting, under the blue eye after the cognac). Well, maybe you and I… hmm?
Antoine looks at Emily a little sarcastically, but kindly.
Emily (coming to her senses). Heck! Why did you pour it for me? Do you see what is being done? You did it on purpose, didn't you?
Antoine. Come on, no second thoughts! Have a snack – have a snack!
