In every big city live
three types of people.
The ordinary people...
The other people, and ...
and ... the BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE!
I was just standing there…
for her eyes only!
…looking out of my window,
…drinking one more glass of bourbon.
And feeling sick …
very sick...
…really sick!
...after reading and watching the latest news.
BOOM!
Wars, civil wars…
…terrorist attacks…
…genocides…
And stupid crimes.
No!
There are some stars in the sky
The city lights...
One is brighter
It makes me wonder, why?
Why all these bad
things happen ...
In a world so small.
Then I saw her...
Just a shadow in the beginning.
But when she came closer to the light
I could see her better.
She was looking at me.
I wasn’t sure if
she could see me.
It is our game.
Sometimes I have this
idea, that I am invisible.
She was looking back;
I’m not invisible to her.
I smelled the air
I can smell her hair.
She’s coming
closer and…
I can see her ...
... in the dark.
I can touch her body I can smell her body Her round belly.
What?
“Bomb exploded in Baghdad
this morning, killing some…”
killing how many?
I have never been in Iraq
BOOM!
I’ve been a couple...
of times to Saudi.
Strange place and very hot.
How can you plant a bomb?
I’ve read one day that…
...you can find all the information...
…in a public library.
And the materials
too easy to find...
TIC...
…in any store.
I must remember to pay the electricity bill.
Last month I forgot.
NOoo!
She’s crossing the road.
She’s looking at me again.
I can smell her perfume
and I can feel...
...her skin.
I’m not sure…
what her name is.
…but our eyes talked.
I’ve met her twice
…in the entrance
Talked a lot.
I know how sensitive she is.
I know how wild she can be.
I know how wild she makes me.
It’s dark outside.
There is blood in the sky.
My glass is empty,
My glass
I need another one.
AHHh!
Damn! Why do they make them so sharp?
What the…?
What’s this sound?
The lift.
She is inside.
Shhh!
She’s pressing the button.
Fourth floor.
Pooonk...
FUCK!
...why are these things so sharp?
I think it’s time…
...to speak to her.
...Our eyes have talked,
…it’s about time for us to talk.
RUN!
Her fucking eyes.
Aaaaaa!
She didn’t love me...
I must remember ...
…to pay the electricity bill tonight.
This is
ONLY
the beginning
of the
extraordinary
BEAUTIFUL
PEOPLE!
