I am sitting at a table, looking out of the window. A narrow
street between this window and the one across it. There I can see two people sitting at a table. A sales agent and a lady.
The lady makes large
gesticulations, and from time to time the agent bows his head towards left, and
his mouth moves swiftly. The lady’s blonde and long hair highlights the, I
think, velvet emerald-green cap on her head. Her black sweater is full of big
stars, colored in red, blue, white and yellow. In her left hand, she holds a black
mobile telephone, pressing its keys from time to time, and in her right hand
she has a blue ballpoint that she uses in order to write and which she sometimes menacingly points toward the agent. Their mandibles tensely move, and then
they clench. The lady stands up from her chair making a hand gesture that implies
the fact that everything is lost. In the background, other agents, once she
moves away, lapse into smiles; and clients allow themselves to do that, too. The
agent seems frozen. The lady comes out of the agency. Seeing how she lets go of
the door, it seems it firmly bounces. She is outside. She puts her mobile telephone in
her bag; she looks towards right, then left, and decides to go right. I see her
now in all her glory. The cap matches the green bag, not as emerald as the cap,
which is on her shoulder. From one of its corners, a fluffy, bellied red plush
hangs. She stomps as she passes in front of the window where I used to watch
her at, defying the agent. The agent leaves his desk and vanishes away.
Curtain
down.
