Book: Paper girl



I grew up in a shitty neighborhood. Around all the time they were shouting: screams, insults, threats, shots. There was not a single book, except for a magazine with a TV program, and there I never heard Chopin or Beethoven. That's why I liked being around a Parisian who talked to me about Schopenhauer and Mozart, and not about sex, drugs, rap, tattoos and false nails!

I didn't spare Billy in my stories, but it had no effect on me. She was a fictional character, a pure abstraction that existed solely in my imagination and in the imagination of the readers. A heroine whose material existence was reduced to just a few lines printed on slips of paper. And now the creature has risen against its creator!

We are clean, we have earned money in an honest way. We don't carry weapons under our jackets. There is not a drop of blood on our shirts, just as there are no traces of cocaine on our banknotes.

All relationships start and end, such is life. One morning one stays and the other goes and no one knows why. We are all teetering on the edge of a precipice. I don't trust feelings. They are too volatile, too fragile, too unstable. Do you consider them strong, but one glance, one seductive smile, and of whom no trace remains.
