- And no one was Iooking for you?
- Why are you asking me.

Let me go... I'II go home...

- Home? What home?
- My home... I have a home...

What's your name?

Name? Surname?

What is your name?

What does it matter?

Man... what are you doing
in this world?

For the land where a morsel bread
is weighed and adored

as Heaven's gifts stead
l'm longing, my Lord...



l'm longing, my Lord...
l'm longing, my Lord...

For the land where it sinful is said

tousling a stork nest in discord

for they stand in good stead -
l'm longing, my Lord...

For the land where one's daily bows

...are as these ancient
Christian words:

''Blessed art thou'',
l'm longing, my Lord...

l long for the place
where one cares for me

So must it be,
by friendship's accord,

yet so shan't it be...
l'm longing, my Lord...

Can't even chat with a buddy?

l can't pay you today,
maybe you want a kitten instead?

Why would l need a kitten?

Buy a can of ''Harpun'' fish,
maiI in the IabeI and win

- a famiIy car...

Go get him... get him!
You traitor!

Please come...

We can untie that rope
and run away... far away.

The water will carry us away...

lt will be fun... you'll see!

You'll see...

We will go far away from here...

Would you run away without me?

lf you don't want to, fine, whatever.
l thought you would be happy.

Are you mad at me?

Do whatever you want.

Why should l be mad...
No means no.

You don't like me anymore?

Go, if you have to...

Why are you here?

You want to bite me again,
don't you?

A hole...

You'll get what's coming to you.

Hit me, you'll feel better...

No you don't...

Say it isn't true...

Just don't start a fire!

Hey, hey! Wake up!

Hey!

What have you been doing?
Laundry?

No... Come here...

What happened?

What's wrong?

My mother doesn't like me...

What have l done...

You just are.

lt wouldn't take much...
and l wouldn't be here anymore...

You wanted to run away?

l wanted to drown myself...

What?

Drown?

Because nobody loves me...

Don't do this to me...

Kidnap me.
Let's run away together.

Tomorrow

We'll run away.

We will get caught one day,
