two men, one about 40, the other 20, came out of the front door as Lohan approached... who were they? -- they barely acknowledged her and she made her way to the door... it was open... she pulled the long chord that rang a real bell ... not a digital recording... no answer...
she went inside the house... it was well lit... light was streaming in from various windows.... it wasn't all grey and black and white like in the Addams Family either... needless to say there was no 'thing' there....
'Putin! Putin!'... Lohan heard Vautrin's voice and followed it to a different, large open room (that was French, right? but what did Putain mean again? and did she say Putin?)... here was Vautrin, presumably, sitting in front of a computer... if she was aware of her new guest she gave no indication of it until finally she said:
'the water is boiling in the kettle... can you see the steam? why don't you make me a coffee? help yourself too...' said Vautrin without looking at her once... had she been announced by Stomach?
Lohan fixed coffees and brought the scalding cup to Vautrin who evidently was working on some kind of video editing program... the video showed two soccer teams in formation - the captains were picking sides....
'you see, cherie, i am trying to figure out how to do some video editing but i am not familiar with any of the programs... i need to just choose one program and stick with it... i don't even know how to put the text up on the screen...' Vautrin said... finally making eye contact briefly while taking the cup from Lohan's hands...
Lohan wondered if Vautrin even knew who she was...
