Rapunzel is a pretty happy young girl who doesn't have such an easy life. The only rare times she saw the sun was in a photo. This nearly 18-year-old teenager is allergic to the sun, this disease gives her redness, itching and inflammation on her skin and her very protective parents categorically refuse to let her set foot outside.One afternoon, the girl was talking with her friends when she was invited to the park for a walk. Excited, she ran to ask permission from her parents.
Rapunzel: Can I go out for a walk with my friends?
Arianna: going out? You're talking seriously ?
Frédéric: it's sunny, you can't go out.
Rapunzel: it's not fair, I can't go out when it's sunny because of my allergy, when it's raining because I'll get wet and even when it's snowing because the ground is slippery...
Arianna: That's how it is.
Rapunzel: I'm not even free, I'm going to be 18 soon!
Frédéric: it changes absolutely nothing.
Rapunzel takes refuge in her room and slams the door behind her. She spoke with her cousin Anna.
💬Rapunzel: I can't take it anymore! My parents still forbid me to go out!
💬 Anna: because of the sun?
💬 Rapunzel: yes as always...
💬Anna: I read an article the other day about sun allergy, it said there was a cure.
💬Rapunzel: a treatment? Which ?
💬 Anna: antihistamine and perhaps photo-protective in prevention.
💬Rapunzel: if it works it will save my life.
💬Anna: it'll work, if it's good for others it's good for you too.
Arianna: Rapunzel? Get down my daughter...
Rapunzel: yes I'm coming.
Frederic: Rapunzel, you know...
Rapunzel: don't beat around the bush, what's going on? What do you have to tell me?
Frédéric: your cousin's idea won't work...
Rapunzel: How do you know? She just told me about it.
Arianna: We synchronized your phone and your father's phone to receive your messages...
Rapunzel: and my private life then?! What good is it to you watching me so much?! It is not fair !
Arianna: don't get mad it was for your...
Rapunzel: my property?! For me to be well I would have to have a private life and the right to go out!
Arianna: It's impossible.
Rapunzel: if it's possible but you don't want me to go out for some unknown reason!!!
Frederic: That's enough now! Go to your room! You will never get out of this house!!!
She ran to her room and slammed the door with all her might. Once in her room, mad with rage, she threw a family photo out the window and we heard the glass of the frame pane shatter against the concrete of her terrace. She heard a voice from outside and leaned out the window.
Rapunzel: who are you?
Man: I'm Mr Rider, are you okay miss?
Rapunzel: Yes, it was only a fit of anger.
Mr. Rider: Only? What happened to you ?
Rapunzel: I'm not allowed to go out or have a private life.
Mr Rider: not allowed to go out? But why ?
Rapunzel: sun allergy.Mr Rider: You are currently bathed in the bright rays of the sun and I think you are doing quite well.
Rapunzel realized she was really fine, surprised she ran down the stairs and ran around her house, so happy to be outside she joined the man she had been talking to and gave him a Hug.
Rapunzel: thank you very much for this revelation, how can I thank you?
Mr Rider: It's my job to save people in need.
Rapunzel: It's a beautiful job.
Mr Rider: thank you but who told you that you were allergic to the sun?
Rapunzel: my parents.
Mr Rider: they probably lied to you but why?
Rapunzel: To keep me close to them forever.
Mr Rider: what is your name please?
Rapunzel: My name is Rapunzel.
Mr Rider: like the baby who disappeared just under 20 years ago.
