“OK, THAT’S ENOUGH; I’M LEAVING!!!”

“FINE, FINE LEAVE; IT’S THE ONLY THING YOU CAN DO BETTER ANYWAY!!!” – screams Alice as Dana slams the front door of Alice’s apartment.

“SHIT, SHIT, SHIT!”, says to herself Dana -walking without an specific direction- who still can’t understand what exactly is going on between she and Alice. In her way to “God knows where” she recaps the events in her mind, everything was just fine some time ago: a very strong attraction, great sex, and even love confessions had sealed the deal. Suddenly with the unexpected arrival of Lara, everything seemed to be falling apart, and getting worse and worse every time, starting with Alice’s jealousy and Lara’s attempts to be Dana’s “buddy.”

“How the hell did we get to this point!” Dana thinks. “Is that we rush things out? Or is that maybe the love is just …fading away?”- “No, no, shut up Fairbanks! Stop thinking that way, God!” – Dana hits her head as she keeps walking.

Almost instinctively, Dana gets inside The Planet. She just sits, put her elbows in the table, and holds her head.

Lara, who had spotted Dana -visibly worried- since her entrance, runs towards her and sits by her side.

“Hey, Dana, are you ok?” Says Lara, touching Dana’s arm.

“OH JEEZ!” -Dana jumps a little -“oh hi… hi Lara!. You scared me” says with a silly smile .

“Oh, sorry I didn’t”… Lara looks at Dana, who now has a sad look. “Dana what’s wrong?”.

 “Not… nothing, I’m just fine”. She tries unsuccessfully to convince Lara …or herself.

“Dana, look at me” Lara takes gently Dana’s chin, turning her face to hers. “talk to me, come on ,you know you can trust me”.

Dana, unable to say “no” to such a sweet face, tries to explain herself.

“It’s just that … I… I don’t know. I’m not sure if I should talk to you about this”.

“Come on Dana, this is ridiculous! You know you can talk to me about anything …anything”! States holding firmly Dana’s chin and looking directly into her eyes.

“Ok, it’s about …me… and… Alice”…finally answers to Lara, with a guilty face.
