Just a few people were in the cheap cinema, sitting far away from each other, three to be precise; two lovers, two kissers to be more precise, at the back left corner who didn't watch the movie naturally, and a man in his forties, in a way a handsome man you could say. This man hadn't bought a ticket to take a nap, or to kiss anybody, or to warm himself, specially when outside was warmer, no, he had actually come to see the film, [Paris Texas]; he was a second class film critic.
A few minutes after the film was started a middle aged woman entered carrying her baby in her arms and sat at the far right corner far from the kissers and when she tried to put her baby on the sit beside her the silly child cried and screamed so loud and so annoying that the mother gave up but the child’s feelings was hurt badly, so she screamed for another full minute even after her mother sat her on her lap again and apologized sincerely time after time and kissed the little horrible thing, the "It's Alive" thing, from top to bottom and begged for mercy and forgiveness. The lovers stopped kissing each other for a few moments and then started again, went back to their business. But the man got so angry that without noticing he chewed his cigarette before lighting it and then when the little thing finished her demonstration of anger management, he lighted another one whispering to himself, cursing the mother and the child with full passion.
About ten minutes later the little thing got bored, quite predictably of course, and first started to cry and then when her mother didn’t do anything pretending to watch the movie, she started to scream again. But this time the mother who was used to her baby’s high-pitched screams paid no attention. She had suddenly decided to teach the spoiled child a lesson, wanted to teach her to be patient and watch the smooth absolutely actionless movie in silence.
This time the man couldn’t tolerate, couldn’t stand it, no sir, he couldn’t take the torture any more. So he got up and went to the mother and said: “ take this horrible thing out or you’ll regret it badly lady.”
The mother said: “Don’t worry sir she’ll be quiet soon. Don’t pay any attention to her. She’ll stop in a minute or two. I’m teaching her a lesson, she must learn you know…”
“I can’t believe it! Are you insane? I can’t take it another second.” the man shouted and then grabbed the baby’s hand and shouted: “stop it you ugly frog!”
Of course the baby screamed more vigorously and the man turning blue from anger whispered: “I said stop it you bastard or I fuck your mother right here right now.”
The child didn’t hear what the man said but the mother did and whispered in the man’s ear: “She doesn’t believe anything unless she sees it with her own eyes.”
