El Viejo [English translation]

About two in the afternoon

When the sun is quite unbearable

In one of my business trips.

In front of me was an elegant driver

At a red light, an old man got close to his car.

-get away dirty old geezer, don't touch the car, you dirty beggar.

He pointed his finger at the old man and said - listen, I am not playing, go somewhere else do as I say.

I could see in the old man's eyes hunger and hope for a coin but that guy pushed him hard making that old man fall scared on the sidewalk.

I was surpassed by anger,

I turned on my car's parking lights

And put on the handbrake.

I went where that coward was and said:

-if you're as brave as you say get out of the car.

That guy got out of the car in the act

And full of cynicism said:

-what the fuck you want? What's your problem? What you want of me?

I nicely said:

- I want you to get that poor innocent on his feet

He replied:

- what do you care? Who the fuck do you think you are to obey you.

Then I said:

- I'll do it my way because to Death everyone's the same, if you don't get that man on his feet and apologize, I am going to kill you.

With a big loud laugh said to my face:

- no way in hell, I am not going to stood down to your level, you don't scare me, and do as you like.

But his face changed when I suddenly pointed him with a gun

I made him keel and placed the gun right in his mouth.

In middle of that street I was sure of killing him but God is big and right before pulling the trigger that old man yelled:

- Don't kill him, don't kill him.

He asked me to have mercy for that guy and then said:

- I am guilty here, I got his car dirty, it's my fault.

That guy confused listed to what the old man was saying, wordless started crying:

- May God forgive me , for what I just did and for being inhumane. What a lesson you gave me, thanks for what I learned here and for the gift of a new life.
