Although the papers
are predicting more rain.

1:15:03
Really?
1:15:09
What's the joke?
1:15:11
I finally have the chance to talk
to you and I've nothing to say.

1:15:15
What is more eloquent than silence?
1:15:18
- I'd better change tables.
- I won't bite.

1:15:22
I'm not too sure. I was
severely frostbitten a moment ago.

1:15:27
What do you mean?
1:15:28
This morning.
When we were introduced.

1:15:31
I don't understand.
1:15:33
My reception was rather cool,
I thought.

1:15:36
I still don't understand.
1:15:38
I'm sorry.
1:15:40
I seem to be getting
a little involved.

1:15:42
You see, I had an idea
that we'd met before.

1:15:45
Well, perhaps we have.
1:15:47
If we haven't,
then you have a twin sister.

1:15:50
Who is she?
1:15:52
Do you really want to know?
1:15:55
Yes.
1:15:57
A young girl
who used to work at Sardou's,

1:15:59
a stationary shop
where I bought music paper.

1:16:02
A very shy, reticent girl.
1:16:05
She seldom spoke.
1:16:08
But her smile was warm
and appealing.

1:16:11
I read many things into it.
1:16:15
I also was shy.
It was a bond between us.

1:16:19
She used to give me
extra music sheets,

1:16:22
and occasionally extra change.
1:16:25
Which, frankly, I accepted.
Hunger has no conscience.

1:16:30
The day after my symphony
played the Albert Hall,

1:16:34
I went back to the shop,
1:16:36
but she'd gone.
They said she'd left months ago.

1:16:41
You haven't seen her since?
1:16:43
Well, have I?
1:16:47
Yes, you have.
1:16:49
I know.
1:16:51
I lost my job giving you
those extra music sheets.

1:16:54
- You won't hold that against me?
- Of course not.

1:16:57
I was very young then.
1:16:59
You're very young now.
