Her throat still aching with every breath Olivia sits on the floor and
looks over to the two people talking quietly. Suddenly a shadow falls over
her and when she lifts her head, she sees two blue eyes looking concerned
at her.
"Let me see." Jesus sits down beside her and reaches out for her. When he
touches her throat softly, she feels a wave of warmth washing through her
body and the pain vanishes as if it has never been there. Seeing the
surprised expression in her eyes, Jesus can`t suppress a selfcontent smile.
"Not everything is a myth, Olivia." He sighs. "I didn`t mean to frighten
you." He leans closer to her his blue eyes gleaming softly.. "But it`s
true. I love you, I`ve always done." When she backs away nearly
unperceivable, a short flash of anger flushes over his face and disappears
again. "I know you can`t remember now. But can`t you feel that we had
something special?" His blue eyes look pleadingly at her, entreating for a
sign of conformation, for a promise, even for a lie, but Olivia just lowers
her head not able to stand this look. "You don`t remember, or do you?" his
eyes suddenly hold a wary expression as he watches her. "Won`t you even
look at me, Olivia?" he asks quietly, his voice soft, but with the faintest
trace of suspicion. Almost anxiously Olivia lifts her head and looks at
him, trying to avoid his eyes. "No, you really don`t remember." Jesus sais
disappointed, then his shoulder straighten and a hopeful gleam appears in
his blue eyes. "But it doesn`t matter. I`ll wait for you. Go down and live
your life, and then return to me. Just promise, you`ll remember and you`ll
love me again." He leans towards her, his blue eyes sinking into her green,
but before his lips can touch hers, she turns her head looking embarassed
to the ground. "Jesus, I can`t." she whispers.
As if he had been beaten in his face, Jesus jumps up, his lips trembling
and tears shooting to his eyes. "Mary." He gets out hurt and disappointment
darkening his eyes. Then he turns round and hurries across stage leaning
against a column and sliding down to the ground, where he drowns in
brooding.
Olivia glances over to the still talking couple. Luzi raises her hand and suddenly Judas is dressed in his old outfit, black T-shirt and Jeans again, and Olivia can`t suppress a smile. Just reestablish the starting-point and pretend nothing after this would have happened. She wishes she could do it herself now. I DON`T KNOW HOW TO LOVE HIM WHAT TO DO HOW TO MOVE HIM I`VE BEEN CHANGED; YES REALLY CHANGED IN THESE PAST FEW DAYS WHEN I`VE SEEN MYSELF I SEEM LIKE NOONE ELSE: Turning back to the starting point, turning back to her old life - why does it seem so far away? Why does it seem to belong to a different woman now? Returning to Stephen- why does the thought slow her heartbeat, why does it feel so wrong? A sad smile creeps across her face as she remembers Judas kneeling before her cupping her chin and looking at her a mysterious gleam in his eyes, asking: "Do you love him?" She didn`t reply, she was too frightened to answer. But she has to know now, has to answer herself: does she love Stephen? There has never been any doubt, any confusions, any questions before.
Her eyes wander over to Judas figure, from his short dark hair over the clear-cut silhouette of his face; remembering the way his dark eyes sparkled and gleamed, almost seemed to caress her face, her heart pounds deeply and heavily, as the realization breaks through to her. Sometimes there are points in life where there`ll be no return; some doors will stay shut forever, and some bridges will burn behind. I DON`T KNOW HOW TO TAKE THIS I DON`T SEE WHY HE MOVES ME HE`S A MAN HE`S JUST A MAN AND I`VE HAD SO MANY MEN BEFORE IN VERY MANY WAYS _ HE`S JUST ONE MORE
An abrupt movement startles her out of her thoughts and she looks at Luzi, who gestures wildly with her arms, her eyes burning and flashing at Judas. SHOULD I BRING YOU DOWN? SHOULD I SCREAM AND SHOUT? WILL YOU SPEAK OF LOVE? LET YOUR FEELINGS OUT? She takes Judas face in both hands, searching for a sign of the old passion in his eyes; her fingers caress his lips, wander over his cheek to the back of his head playing with his hair, pulling the motionless man in a desperate kiss, but when she realizes there´s no reply to her touch, she steps back; shaking her head vehemently, her black flowing hair swirling through the air. I NEVER THOUGHT I`D COME TO THIS WHAT`S IT ALL ABOUT? She screams loudly, her eyes throwing lightenings of blackness at him. Then when he stays quiet, not giving a sign of emotion away, she calms down. DON`T YOU THINK IT`S RATHER FUNNY? I SHOULD BE IN THIS POSITION? I`M THE ONE WHO`S ALWAYS BEEN IN FULL CONTROL NO LOVER`S FOOL RUNNING EVERY SHOW She looks at him pleadingly, questioningly, her eyes still gleaming with a glint of hope.
YOU SCARE ME SO: She embraces him tightly, clasps him like she`s going to drown, covers his face with desperate kisses, tears streaming down her face, leaving black ponds on the ground, but Judas detaches carefully from her and kissing her forehead softly he turns round and walks away. Luzi turns into the other direction, going down the stairs with sagging shoulders. But shortly before she reaches her seat, she suddenly swings round. Her eyes spray sparks, fire blazes from her fingertips as she points her outstretched arm at Olivia. I NEVER THOUGHT I`D COME TO THIS But suddenly a hand is put on her arm moving it down. Turning around she looks into the light eyes of God who looks compassionated at her. He slowly shakes his head and she throws herself into his embrace. WHAT`S IT ALL ABOUT? When he begins to cradle her like a child in his arm, her tears flood dark rivers down to the ground.
