nadie levita

Claudia regresa a la mesa por detrás de Jim Kurring. Lo besa en la mejilla y rápidamente se sienta frente a él.

CLAUDIA
I wanted to do that.

Jim Kurring smiles, shaken a bit.

JIM KURRING
Well.

CLAUDIA
That felt good to do...to do what
I wanted to do.

JIM KURRING
Yeah.

CLAUDIA
Can I tell you something?

JIM KURRING
Yeah, of course.

CLAUDIA
I'm really nervous that you're
gonna hate me soon. That you're
gonna find stuff out about me
and you're gonna hate me --

JIM KURRING
-- no, like what, what do you mean?

CLAUDIA
You're a police officer. You have
so much, so many good things and
you seem so together...so all straight
and put together without problems.

JIM KURRING
I lost my gun.

CLAUDIA
What?

JIM KURRING
I lost my gun after I left you today
and I'm the laughing stock of a lot
of people. I wanted to tell you that.
I wanted you to know...and it's on my mind
and it makes me look like a fool and
I feel like a fool and you asked that
we should say things, that we should
say what we're thinknig and not lie
about things and I'll tell you that, this:
that I lost my gun and I'm not a good
cop...and I'm looked down at...and I know
that....and I'm scared that once you
find that out you might not like me.

CLAUDIA
Oh my god, Jim. Jim, that was so --

JIM KURRING
I'm sorry --

CLAUDIA
That was so great what you just said.

JIM KURRING
I haven't been on a date since I
was married and that was three years
ago....and Claudia...whatever you
wanna tell me, whatever you think
might scare me, won't...and I will
listen...I will be a good listener
to you if that's what you want...and
you know, you know...I won't judge you....
I can do that sometimes, I know, but
I won't...I can...listen to you and you
shouldn't be scared of scaring me off
or anything that you might think I'll
think or on and on and just say it and
I'll listen to you....

CLAUDIA
You don't how fuckin' stupid I am.

JIM KURRING
It's ok.

CLAUDIA
You don't know how crazy I am.

JIM KURRING
It's ok.

CLAUDIA
I've got troubles.

JIM KURRING
I'll take everything at face value.
I'll be a good listener to you.

CLAUDIA
Ohhhh I started this, didn't I,
didn't I, didn't I, fuck.

JIM KURRING
Say what you want and you'll see --

CLAUDIA
Wanna kiss me, Jim?

JIM KURRING
Yes I do.


Se besan.
