6. Vacuity by the Window

We get in a Hotel.

Clerk:”They will be ready in a moment.

The hall is adjacent to the reception.”

R:”We’ll be waiting.”

We get on a sofa.

It’s mush.

Everything is better than the floor.

Emma:”I was thinking about the Moumidou.”

R:”Did it tell you something?”

Emma:”It is strangely compelling.”

R:”How so?”

Emma:”It does not speak.

But it moves.

And its gestures are friendly.”

R:”Friendly.”

Emma:”It makes it memorable.”

Assistant Clerk:”Here are your keys.”

He takes them.

Assistant Clerk:”Do you have some luggage?”

R:”We are fine.”

Assistant Clerk:”If we need anything we are open through the night.

Enjoy your stay.”

Emma:”Why did she precise that they’re open through the night?”

R:”She looked nervous.

She must occupy this position only till recently.”

Emma:”Hum…”

P:”You move in?”

Emma:”It is not time to sleep.”

R:”You wanted to take a shower.”

Emma:”It is true.

The fast we get, the earlier the crepes.”

P:”…”

Emma:”You need to sleep.”

P:”Why?”

Emma:”Because you make stupid decisions.”

P:”Latter then.”

R:”We’ll look for you after dusk.”

P:”Alright.”

I get in for a nap.

Can’t sleep.

In the cabin.

Cold shower.

Still not sleepy.

Breasts & bums in the brain.

I look by the window.

That’s a hot dress…

The walls of the building in front of the hotel are painted.

Large round forms.

Looks like a curvy body.

Discontinued by windows.

Another shower.

I’m off.

Get back to the hall.

People are walking off.

They’re neglecting something.

They dressed to get out.

They got their walk & talk.

All their quirks on them.

I can’t hear or see anything I’d remember.

Evening’s coming.

Flat Atmosphere.

Cause we’re indoors.

Artificial light makes everything flat.

People are walking off.

Quitting a building.

To get in another building.

That’s what we do.
