Alice finds Helen crying.
| Alice: | It’s only me. Can I come in? |
| Helen: | Yes but don’t look at me. I’m a mess. |
| Alice: | Helen, you’ve been crying. What’s wrong? |
| Helen: | I’ve just had some really bad news from Michal. He’s fallen in love with someone else and doesn’t want me to contact him ever again. |
| Alice: | Oh, you poor thing. |
| Helen: | I mean it wasn’t as if I didn’t see it coming. But still it’s a shock to see it all down in black and white. |
| Alice: | That’s awful. |
| Helen: | But you know what the worst thing is? Poor Tim got the brunt of it all. He just wanted to have a chat with me and I completely went off on one. Alice? |
