What is my name - without understanding what he saw from the cushion from which the color could not be defined. The Officer lifted his head from the cushion, leaning on the back of the chair where he also did not know how it had ended up there. With all the slowness and laziness of a head that was massacred with every attempt to think, the let's say Officer spat on the floor, cracked and filthy. - ...
