a surprising day
it's important that I don't make a mistake, now what should I wear ?
This one...
or maybe this one...
Virginie? Virginie?
Yes? What is it mom ?
what are you doing?
You should be ready by now...I told you to be quick!
mom, I can't decide on which dress to take to Paris.
What do you think of this one?
C'mon help me mom.
I really can't chose between them....
Here we go again...
It really reminds me of when you were small.
Here. Why not this one for instance?
Ah no, not this one. I can't possibly got out with such a mini...
You have way too many dresses Virginie, hence why you can't chose.
Now, Sophie's turn...
Sophie?
Sophie!
Sophie, what the...
Where did she go? i did not hear her go out...
I don't know either.
Maybe, but you're going to have to find her.
And now, hurry up or we're going to be late.
Oh no mom please!
I have other things to do.
And why do i always have to go look for her?
It's really no fun!
C'mon, run!
C'mon!
Faster!
And...Hop!
Ah...What are you doing?
Wait for me...
Hey... Ohoh...
I bet i can catch you up...
You won't get away!
Hey
Tudor, c'mon stop...
I already took a bath this morning...
Sophie
Sophie, do you really think it's time to be playing around?
Everyone is looking for you!
Yeah but i wanted to say good bye to Tudor so hold on for a sec!
You better hurry up or we'll go without you and it'll serve you right!
No wait...
Oooh! wait i'm coming.
C'mon hurry up!
Hello dad!
Hello mom!
Sophie!? What on earth did you do outside?
Look at your face!
She's really impossible, dad. She never stops. She's a real tomboy...
I bet you were in the garden, playing with Tudor.
Am i wrong?
Look at yourself, you're covered in mud...
It's not me, it's him.
he loves to play and,
won't leave me for a second.
Oh, hihi, yea yea i know you're gentle
i love you too but stop...
Now hurry and go clean urself up if you want to come with us.
Okay mom!I'll go right away
It's incredible how they get along.
He's really never leaving her side.
They're such a pair
Excuse me, sir.
Master Perrin just arrived, and he said he has an appointment with you.
Perfect, Léontine, perfect.
Let him come in.
em, wait
Yes, sir?
You know that we're going to leave you the kids during our stay in Africa,
so i hope you're not too anxious to stay with them.
Oh, no sir, don't worry about it.
I'm starting to get used to it.
I know, thank you.
I promise to get you a souvenir that's typical of the region, okay?
Oh, thank you sir, but you really don't have to bring me a souvenir from Africa.
Ah, she's right, dad.
You know that she got nightmares from your gifts of Africa?
Beside, she doesn't know where to put them anymore.
From my point of view, you should change continent...
Virginie... My...
What are you saying?
Is it true Léontine?
And between us, she's not the only one who's got enough...
so spare us and stop bringing those stuffs home.
We have enough masks, shields and dolls...
I swear, it's starting to make us dizzy...
Well, you should have said so earlier.
Okay, well, we got it.
We'll bring you something else.
and don't worry, dear Léontine.
And now, let's go.
I'm going to get Master Perrin.
Okay, Léontine.
Virgine, could you bring this bag to the car?
Of course, mom.
Hi Perrin!
Sorry to make you wait, i had a small issue to handle.
Don't worry about it.
The life of a notary in a small village is not stressing, you know.
Thanks god for horse racing.
Still addicted to it huh?
Of course.
Here, what we were talking about.
I got time to prepare everything.
As usual, i'm keeping it until you come back to from your trip.
Yes, please.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
It's so nice to have a friend we can rely on.
You just have to leave your car in front of the station.
I'll go get it later.
You can leave it to me, you won't get a fine.
Thank you, Perrin.
Are you sure, it's no problem? i don't want to impose.
no, no.
It's my job to handle your business, so i can do this for you.
Tudor, i already told you that you were staying at home.
Be quiet Tudor.
Sit.
You know, we're going to Paris with the parents.
Stop turning aroung like a spinning top, you're going to make me dizzy.
Stop. Tudor, SIT!
While, i'm not here, you'll listen to Léontine,
and don't mess around.
See, how nice he can be when you know how to handle him?
Sophie, Virginie, let's go.
Everything's ready?
Good bye Kiddos!
We're leaving the house to you as usual,Léontine.
No problem, Madam.
Good bye, Léontine!
Good bye.
Good bye Tudor and, remember what i told you. Don't mess around.
Good byeeee!
We took time but we're gone, like last time.
Last time, it was when we went to picnic, do you remember?
Yea, but today...
i know, i know...if only, we went to picnic, i would be so happy.
oh, us too, Sophie.
And when we'll get back, we'll have a lot of time for you.
Yes, i can promise you.
And we'll do a lot of picnic?
Promise.
We'll go in the mountain for the week end.
Yeah, but for now, you're leaving.
you'll forget everything once there.
the house, Bourgogne...
No. Don't think that.
When I'm in Africa, away from everything,
i often think of this landscape that i love,
our beautiful house...
And especially you, my sweet little darlings.
You're always in our minds.
Me too, when you're not here, i always think of you.
It's not because we're separate that we're going to forget you.
You know, what's really bothering Sophie,
is that i'm the one controlling,
when you're not around.
Ooh buah... that's not funny, i forgot about this.
Now, you won't.
Look at that...
he's not in any hurry...
if this go on, we're going to miss the HST (High speed Train)...
Oh, i hope we're going to miss it.
What?
Sophie! Are you crazy? What are you saying?
C'mon, think about it!
We have to arrive after the departure of the train,
that way mom and dad will stay with us.
oh come on, Sophie.
oh fun...If i get it right, we shouldn't go anywhere.
Let's go. You can go ahead now.
Ah, it's about time. it cost us 5 min...
Okay, now i hope we won't run into other herds
Ohlala... When i think that all my friends are going to spend their summer holidays with their parents...
They're really lucky...
Which is not my case...
I really don't understand why, i can never go to Africa with you.
it's not fair!
No Sophie, don't start again...
You perfectly know why.
Mom and dad are going because of work,
they're not going on holidays.
Virginie is right...
We're sorry,
We would have prefered to spend the holidays with you but,
sadly, we've got to go now.
We don't have any other solutions.
We have important matters that can't wait.
We were asked to be there as soon as possible.
That's why we had to pack,
You should understand...
Well...
We'll come back...
Probably before the end of the holidays.
And we'll try to take you somewhere!
Yay, Yay!
You're always saying that, but you're never doing it!
This time, i swear it'll be true.
Now, take the opportunity while we're gone to do your summer homeworks,
this way, you'll done with it.
Oh mom, you never forget this, it's really annoying!
It might be frustrating,
But to be successful, you have to work.
And next year will be university for you, Virginie.
Oh, don't worry.
I'm not like Sophie.
I'm actually WORKING.
Gee Thanks...That wasn't nice...
Oh yea, i wanted to ask,
Do you already know what you want to do later, Virginie?
Got any idea?
Well...
You might be surprised but...
maybe the same as you.
I want to be an ethnologist.
really? Well then, we're not a bad example.
Yes, but it's not fun for kids, to have their parents, spending all their time overseas.
Yea, right...I'm sure, you're a martyr child...
