– “I cannot thank you enough, Delilah. I’m cured!
Breathing’s now a delight, everything smells anew!”
– “I see. And you, Sarah? Will you be all right?”
– “I will, for sure. Thank you. Thank you. How did you knew?”
– “Elijah told me, long ago. About your wish.”
– “What did I told you about? I can’t remember”
Dragon and wife giggles. Then both burst with laughter.
– “Wha did I said?” “Don’t fret, I’ll tell you soon darling.”

– “Je ne sais comment te remercier, Delilah !
Je suis guéri et peux respirer sans fumer !”
– “Je vois. Et vous, Sarah ? Saurez-vous pour la suite ?”
– “Ca ira, merci pour tout. Comment saviez-vous ?”
– “Elijah me l’a confié, il y a longtemps.”
– “Confié quoi? Quelle suite ? Je ne me souviens pas”
Elles sourient de concert. Puis éclatent de rire.
– “Qu’ai-je dit?” “Rien mon amour. Je t’expliquerai.”
