Ребекка. Я не подозреваю. Я спросила только, есть ли тут какая-то, как бы это сказать, синергия, дополнительная выгода для тебя лично из этого бесконечно прекрасного и щедрого дара, который ты по своей доброте и милости преподносишь мне.
Маркус. Слушай, ты, честно… Больная на всю голову.
>Соня приготовила для БЛАНКИ прекрасный ужин, накрыла стол: симпатичная скатерть, свечи, бутылка красного, кастрюля с куриным рагу, багет. Бланка настороженно ест, Соня наблюдает с противоположной стороны стола…
Соня. So your name is Blanka and my name is Sonja. We are both 23-years-old and are born in the star-sign of Virgo. Isn’t that strange?
Бланка. Well…
Соня. I was just… I felt there was something about you. The first time I saw you sitting there. It was something about you. And I have also dreamt about you.
Бланка. Listen… If you want to have sex, if you want to buy sex, I don’t sell this… I have a husband, two children in Romania. And I am not interested in…
Соня. No, no, you don’t understand! It was not a dream like that. You really have to trust me. I only want to help you.
Бланка. Okay. Thank you.
>Пауза.
Соня. Do you like the food?
Бланка. Yes. Thank you.
Соня. It’s a recipe I got from my mother.
Бланка. Thank you so much.
Соня. I’m so glad you like it. It’s my favourite dish. And I really wanted you to try it.
Бланка. I’m so thankful.
>Пауза.
Соня. So tell me… How did you end up here? In this country, in this city?
Бланка. What do you mean?
Соня. Yes, why did you come here?
Бланка. I… I am a beggar… I am begging for money, I came here to get money to my family…
Соня. Yes, but why this certain part of town and this certain street? How come you choose to sit right here?
Бланка. I… We… We arrived together some group of people and I… I don’t know… I just thought it would be a good street, no one else was sitting here right now.
Соня. Do you believe in destiny?
Бланка. What do you mean?
Соня. Do you believe that we were meant to meet? That there was something in our life’s paths that was aimed to lead to each other?
Бланка. Listen here, I really don’t get you. And maybe I have to leave. Thank you very very much for the dinner. You are a very kind person. (Встает.)
Соня. No, no, no, you misunderstand me again! I don’t want something special from you. I only want to help you. I need to help you. I really really want to help you.
>Бланка стоит в нерешительности.
Бланка. Yes… I… You are a truly good human being… But I… I just don’t understand why you picked out me? Of all these thousands and thousands of dirty gipsy-beggars in the streets in this city — why you picked me?
