Chapter 94 - scene 93

**Earth**

**Scene 93 – In the City**

*There is the girl who took off her warm coat so that the boy lying asleep in the cold could feel warmth… She is now in front of her house. She rings the bell, and her grandfather opens the door. She enters and closes the door behind her. The scene does not follow them inside, but we can see their shadows through the window of the lit room, and we can hear their conversation. Let's follow it…*

**Grandfather:** What happened, my girl? Where is your coat? Were you robbed?

**Girl:** No, grandfather…

I was just passing by your shop, and there was a poor boy sleeping on your doorstep.

Please, grandfather, help him. He must be hungry and has no money.

*The grandfather is surprised.*

**Grandfather:** What? Why didn't you tell me this before?

**Girl:** I told you, grandfather.

*The grandfather puts on his coat and rushes outside. His granddaughter tries to follow him, but he stops her.*

**Grandfather:** Stay inside. Don't go out. The weather is bad. I will take care of it.

**Girl:** As you wish, grandfather.

*The grandfather quickly reaches his shop and finds Labib awake.*

**Grandfather:** Are you alright, son?

*Labib smiles sarcastically.*

**Labib:** Old man? You ask about my condition?

If you want money, I have none… And if you owe my parents something, that's none of my business.

*The grandfather is puzzled by Labib's words and doesn't understand them… but you understand, right?*

*Labib picks up the coat and says sternly:*

**Labib:** Do you know who it belongs to?

**Grandfather:** Yes, it belongs to my granddaughter.

**Labib:** Take it then. Here you go.

*Labib hands the coat to the grandfather and leaves without another word… He doesn't look back, even though the grandfather calls after him:*

**Grandfather:** Wait… wait a moment…

This boy is truly a strange one.
