Este va en inglés, loco...
I'm in a room. I'm in a room with other people. I don't really know them, but we're all stuck inside that room... that room which has absolutely nothing special about it, except for the mattress that lies on one of its corners. I can't remember if we're talking, or if there's a sense of slight discomfort in the air.
Suddenly, a big black bat flies in through one of the windows. Flapping its threatening wings, it dances around the room with that specific lack of grace that all bats seem to possess. As one would except, people start heading out of the room in a sudden rush of panic... but I don't. I mean, I'm scared, but I choose to stay. And so does one of the other guys. In a matter of seconds, it's only us and the bat.
Or at least we think so. A kid's voice can be heard from under the mattress... A muted scream of desperation that draws our attention away from the bat and onto the mattress. The weird thing is that there's absolutely no way a kid can fit between the mattress and the floor. As we start lifting the mattress, we can hear the kid say:
"...there's a boy! there's a boy!"
As we struggle with the weight of the mattress, we find a small puppy lying on the floor with its eyes closed. We realize that the boy the little kid was talking about, was actually a weak, dying puppy that was almost crushed by the mattress.
I pick up the puppy and start looking for food. I think it can still be saved if I feed him immediately. The other guy gives me a pack of pills to feed the little dog. I start putting them in its mouth, one by one... and the puppy slowly starts to eat them. It opens its eyes and devours the rest of the pills. As it eats more and more food, its size increases dramatically...
I took the dog from one room of the house to the other, and I witnessed how it transformed from a "cute little puppy", into an uncontrollable deformed creature. As it grew, its shape started acquiring some more human characteristics. Suddenly, I found myself staring at one disgusting freak of nature.
Other people stopped by, absolutely shocked, in awe of what they had in front of them. They even started to make fun of it. One woman dared to point out how incredibly deformed the baby's head was... and to everyone's surprise, the baby answered:
"Well... what do you expect?? They found me almost dead, crushed, under a mattress. And through several sessions of plastic surgery, they were able to reconstruct my face".
The baby pointed to a TV nearby. The TV showed graphic images of the different surgeries the baby had had. "My bones were crushed. They stretched my face, fixed my teeth, reconstructed every piece of my jaw... so why don't you think twice before making those kind of remarks???"
The woman just stood there, ashamed of herself.
... and I stood thinking about how aggressive the baby had come to be. And I was completely repulsed by him.
The End.
