.Ingrid protests, but eventually relentsu00e2 $" she understands her obligation to her buddy, however sheu00e2 $ s likewise knowledgeable about the concerns, which include possible criminal costs if the cops become aware of her prior knowledge of Marthau00e2 $ s motives. They travel up, yet after that quickly must return to New York when Martha loses the pillu00e2 $" in a heart-pumping pattern they switch her apartment or condo upside down trying to find it. (To order yet another unlawfully, she states, will be actually much as well complicated.) When Ingrid finds it, in an envelope scrawled along with the word u00e2 $ Adieu, u00e2 $ you ponder if sheu00e2 $ ll palm it overu00e2 $" however she does.Over the upcoming couple of times, back in their brand-new country home, the pair mapped out their ground rules: Martha urges that Ingrid must make an effort to enjoy herself (though not cover their expertise, lest the cops locate itu00e2 $" though, typically, she performs), and hang around until sheu00e2 $ s ready. Then, Ingrid will find Marthau00e2 $ s cherry-red room door shut, as well as thatu00e2 $ ll be actually the verification that sheu00e2 $ s gone.Thereu00e2 $ s a type of Hitchcockian apprehension in this part of the tale, particularly the chances of Ingrid climbing up the staircases to check the place of the door once again and also againu00e2 $" but likewise a welcome dose of pessimistic wit. Martha speaks of desiring to have sex with a friend of a friend, Damien (Severanceu00e2 $ s John Turturro), againu00e2 $" a shared fanatic from their past, along with whom Ingrid is still in touch. Ingrid likewise visits the fitness center, and is overcome to discover herself breathless as well as haggard, quickly worried regarding her very own death, too. In among my preferred patterns, Ingrid views the door is actually closed and also immediately vomits and also cries, but after that a pale as well as ghostly Martha, worn white colored, comes downstairs, mentioning sheu00e2 $ d opened up a home window and also the wind had actually blown it closed. Ingrid is actually furious.Photo: u00c2 u00a9 El Deseo, picture by Iglesias Mu00c3 u00a1 s.
