Who is visiting us at this late hour? Shall I open? The door made an annoying creak. ‘Who’s there?’ I did not receive a response, so I looked outside, and the one who came in was nothing but a beggar. ‘Do you want some food?’ His eyes were filled with tears, but he did not respond. I felt sorry for him and said again: ‘Do you want money?’ Finally, he replied in a whisper: ‘Some walkers...’ But I closed the door forcefully and a voice shouted at me: ‘A lying beggar, they are all liars.’ Another voice said: ‘He doesn’t want money; he doesn’t want food.’ It’s been silent... Knock knock ‘Please open the door...’ but there is no answer.
