PARIS, TEXAS

TRAVIS
¿Me ves?

JANE
Sí.

TRAVIS
¿Me reconoces?

JANE
¡Oh, Travis!

TRAVIS
He traído a Hunter conmigo.
¿No quieres verlo?

JANE
Sí. Lo quería ver tanto, que ya
no me atrevía a imaginármelo.
Anne me enviaba fotos de él...
hasta que le pedí que parase.
No soportaba el dolor
de verlo crecer y perderlo.

TRAVIS
¿Por qué no te lo llevaste contigo?

JANE
No podía. No tenía lo que él necesitaba.
No quería usarlo para llenar todos mis vacíos.

TRAVIS
Bueno, él ahora te necesita, Jane. Y quiere
verte.

JANE
¿De verdad?

TRAVIS
Sí. Te está esperando.

JANE
¿Dónde?

TRAVIS
En el centro, en un hotel.
El Meridian. Habitación 1520. 1520.

JANE
No te vas, ¿verdad?

TRAVIS
No puedo verte, Jane.

JANE
No te vayas todavía.
INGLÉS:

TRAVIS
Can you see me?

JANE
Yes.

TRAVIS
Do you recognize me?

JANE
Oh, Travis.

TRAVIS
I brought Hunter with me...

Jane leans back, stunned. She is at a loss for words.

TRAVIS
Don't you want to see him ?

JANE
I wanted to see him so bad that I didn't even dare imagine him
anymore. Anne kept sending me pictures of him until I asked her to
stop. I couldn't stand the pain of seeing him grow up and missing it.

TRAVIS
Why didn't you keep him with you, Jane?

JANE
I couldn't, Travis. I didn't have what I knew he needed. And I didn't want
to use him to fill up all my emptiness.

TRAVIS
Well, he needs you now, Jane. And he wants to see you.

JANE
He does?

TRAVIS
Yes. He's waiting for you.

JANE
Where?

TRAVIS
Downtown. In a hotel, The Meridian. Room 1520... 1520.

He starts to replace the receiver. Startled, Jane gets to her feet.

JANE
You're not going, are you? She pounds against the window with both
fists.

Travis raises the receiver again. A long pause follows.

TRAVIS
I can't see you, Jane.
