Aleydis loves her job but her third pregnancy is literally killing her. Remaining standing for hours and hours makes her back and belly horribly painful. She is scared, so scared that something awful happened to her. One day, a fortune teller had taken her left hand almost by force and had predicted … No, no, no, she’d rather not remember!

Antoine is late. Again ! He had promised. Is it his fault if a lunatic puts a parcel bomb on the subway? Is it his fault if suddenly his subway line was stopped for an unknown period. Is it his fault if he finally has to go all the way around Paris to reach his destination? No, of course not. He wondered about the possibility of taking a taxi, an uber?

That night, Elsa wakes up suddenly. She glances at the clock. Four in the morning … But what’s the matter with her? It’s the third time this week. Last week as well. But exhausted, she always falls asleep again in seconds, without remembering. Today, it’s different. She has already slept over five hours, almost a full night, at least an ordinary night for her. All of a sudden, a slight noise catches her attention. Where does it come from ? Her wandering thoughts cease instantly to give place to extreme concentration. It comes from just above her head. Or rather slightly on the right, in the corner of the ceiling, the one that separates her bedroom from the bathroom. It sounds like footsteps, discreet but also irregular.
Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio, in French Caravage or le Caravage (September 29, 1571 – July 18, 1610), is an Italian painter.
