BENOIT: ...

BELKA: ...

BENOIT: ...

BELKA: ... You need something?

BENOIT: ... Not exactly... I was just thinking... that you're rather untalkative...

BELKA: ... I talk when it's necessary, and I don't talk when it's unnecessary... That... is all...

BENOIT: I see...

BELKA: And... you are as untalkative as I am...

BENOIT: I... am not the same as you... I want to talk... but I am not good at it...

BELKA: I see... You are unskilled...

BENOIT: ...

BELKA: But... that has nothing to do with me...

BENOIT: Yes, that's true...

BELKA: ... I'll be going, then...

BENOIT: Next time...

BELKA: ?

BENOIT: I'll ready a topic beforehand... for the next time we meet...

BELKA: ... Do as you wish...

BENOIT: Belka... you are an expressionless person...

BELKA: ... Not that I think it is, but... is that the topic you readied beforehand?

BENOIT: ...Did I choose poorly?

BELKA: No... it doesn't matter to me...

BENOIT: I see... then we can have a conversation, right...?

BELKA: ... I'll admit I'm an expressionless person... but what of it?

BENOIT: Nothing, really... I just had the thought...

BELKA: I see... Then this conversation is over...

BENOIT: ...

BELKA: ... Why do you want to talk with me, Benoit?

BENOIT: No reason...

BELKA: You want to talk to me for no reason?

BENOIT: ... Is that strange?

BELKA: Is it? I wouldn't know...

BENOIT: Because you are my friend... is that good enough?

BELKA: You want to talk to me... because I'm your friend?

BENOIT: Yes... that's right...

BELKA: That's meaningless. I'm a woman who will kill anyone as long as I'm asked to... even my friends. I don't want to get close to someone I might have to kill.

A RANK

BENOIT: Belka... Are you well?

BELKA: Leave me alone... you're bothering me...

BENOIT: Bothering you... how?

BELKA: By striking up conversation with me for no reason...

BENOIT: ... Belka,  are you well?

BELKA: Didn't you hear me? I'm not good with that sort of stuff... so leave me alone...

BENOIT: Not good with it...? It looks to me like you're just not used to it.

BELKA: Huh?

BENOIT: So all you have to do is get used to talking. And don't worry. I'm strong.

BELKA: ... What do you mean?

BENOIT: Just hypothetically speaking, even if you were told to kill me, I wouldn't let you kill me so easily.

BELKA: ...

BENOIT: ... Are you well, Belka?

BELKA: ... Yes. My body is functioning normally.

BENOIT: Is that so...? Good to hear....

BELKA: Hah... I just have to get used to talking...? You may be right... I am in a different environment now, after all...

BENOIT: Then... let's continue this pointless conversation...

BELKA: Okay... Benoit...

BELKA: ...

BENOIT: A bird...

BELKA: Yes... one flew by...

BENOIT: ...

BELKA: ...

BENOIT ... Will you marry me?

BELKA: ...

BENOIT: ... I... love you, Belka...

BELKA: ... I... have never loved anyone...

BENOIT: ... Is that so.

BELKA: ... But... When I'm with you... I feel at peace inside.

BENOIT: I feel the same way...

BELKA: Even when we're not speaking... I feel happy just standing next to you...

BENOIT: I... feel the same about that, too...

BELKA: When I think of you... the pulsing in my chest speeds up...

BENOIT: Yeah... same for me...

BELKA: ... I see. So is this what it means to love someone?

BENOIT: Yeah...

BELKA: I love you... and you love me back...

BENOIT: Yeah...

BELKA: ...

BENOIT: ...

BELKA: I... will marry you...

BENOIT: Will you...?

BELKA: I do not know much... about loving someone... or being loved in return... but I am very happy right now...

BENOIT: Yeah... So am I...

BELKA: Thanks... Benoit...
