Street's silence was broken only by the distant sound of a passing car and the noise of air conditioners had been running all day. It was nearly two o'clock and the heat was still unbearable. Not a drop of air to come out for a little respite from the sweaty bodies that night trying to sleep without much success.
Tired of tossing and turning in bed was the bathroom to cool off a bit, got wet your wrists and put his head under the tap until it is soaked hair. Something more relieved stepped onto the balcony to smoke a cigarette, lit it with a deep puff to try to ease their anxiety.
was the middle of August and as in all cities are coastal hot was not much free parking everywhere and hardly any car running. The street was deserted but for the cyclical change in color of traffic lights the world seemed to be stopped.
A man and woman came in a car stopped at traffic lights opposite. She rushed out, slamming the door and the man soon after her yelling out.
- Where do you think you're going, bitch? Back in the car! "Let me
in peace, you're drunk!
- I said come on, pussy! - She said shaking her arm forcefully. While the smoker
watched the couple from the balcony, she escaped the man as he could and tried to hide behind a car that was parked.
"It's the best, we can not continue.
- You're crazy if you think I'm going to give you a divorce and left with nothing!
"You have loved me no never.
- You're not rid of me so easily!
- Do not take it anymore!
-, shut the fuck up! Or get in the car or I'm going up, choose!, But it will be worse to be me ... - Uttered the man made a fiend.
The woman, driven by fear to carry out its warning, again approached him.
"Relax, we are looking from the terrace.
- I do not give a crap we watch. If you have guts to come down and watch me closely! - Shouted facing balcony, while the smoker, undeterred, was still leaning.
"For heaven's sake, shut up and stop screaming!
-Chillaré if I feel like it, do you hear? You're not one to give me orders, which will be clear! That is the last time! "He said giving him a blow so strong that knocked her down, he let knuckles marked on the cheek and opened a slit in the lip that he quickly began to drip blood.
The wife began to mourn: he knew how to end the discussions that started from a punch ... Did not feel strong enough to stand up to her husband once and for all, so without question, got up from the ground and, fearful that her husband's anger grew even more, back into the car.
The smoker, who hurried the last puffs of his cigar, watching the scene as one looks through the window rain. Took a last puff and returned to his room ...
