WHO ARE YOU?<br />
She got to the Eiffel tower ( the place where she<br />
kept the best memories of your life)" when she<br />
went up for the last five remaining scales<br />
Began to see a man of back dressed in white suit<br />
that he had been watching from the top of the<br />
tower, she hastened her step to reach the young<br />
man and suddenly turns around and is in the light<br />
its true identity.<br />
-Who are you?<br />
-You are identical to your mother!<br />
-My mother, how do you know her?<br />
-Was so beautiful that everybody dying by stay<br />

.I do not, what do you are saying?<br />
-Your mother was in love me but your father<br />
bought her whit money.<br />
-You are Frank´s father, where was his, tell me<br />
right now!<br />
-You´ll never see his!<br />
-Why you forced his to do something that he did<br />
not want to do?<br />
-He did not do anything, and who don’t do my<br />
orders have to pay very expensive.<br />
-What?<br />
Whit her eyes closed and voice loud.<br />
-You are You're a bastard and unhappy<br />
Frank's father took her very strong and replied :<br />
-Your father is the bastard and you will pay by<br />
his mistake.<br />
Dropping her , he asked again.<br />
-What know what happened whit Frank?<br />
I hate the day in that he knew her.<br />
I hate his!<br />
-Quiet!<br />
She hit his and starts to cry .<br />
Well, The night that Frank write the letter<br />
placed it in the envelope ready to send it, but the<br />
binge drinking would not let him and I found his<br />
asleep.<br />
I read his letter and I knew that everything would<br />
be lost, so decide change it to another that I<br />
pág. 10
myself wrote, and I could use it to destroy you<br />
bit by bit, He wanted to flee with you, but I also<br />
fool he.<br />
I answered to letter instead you! And I say that<br />
we meet here .<br />
He smiled and continued:<br />
-when you didn´t arrive he thought to found you<br />
but I arrived . He refused to go with the plan,<br />
Marcela could not say anything only cry and cry,<br />
and the man Said again no one can be against my<br />
plan.<br />
Suddenly he pointed out with a gang to Marcela<br />
and said:<br />
-Have arrived your hour to …<br />
Marcela interrupted.<br />
-I could give a taste to see me die by your hand,<br />
but I do it by sitting next to the first and foremost<br />
that showed me what the true love was.<br />
These were last words as it came to the view of<br />
the tower and jump with your arms extended at<br />
command prompt deliver her soul in sacrifice for<br />
the love she felt part of Frank<br />
So I'm not had no choice but fling his from the<br />

-Because no one can to destroyed mi plan.<br />
-But was your son!<br />
-This are the least importan.<br />
-No, what , my love no!<br />
-There's nothing you can do<br />
At that moment a cry is heard terror-stricken that<br />
filled the entire aisle but Marcela could not listen<br />
to them. And repeated consecutively<br />
-NOOOOOOOO! Marcela…<br />
pág. 11
Those were the cries of Frank trying to prevent<br />
Marcela jump but it was too late. Without<br />
spending much time Frank knew he would never<br />
again see that blonde girl, thick lips that<br />
accompanied him every day, who dreamed to<br />
marry someday.<br />
At that moment the police surrounding the<br />
Tower completely, not finding more people than<br />
two young men killed in the cold and desolate<br />
street of Paris and even man overwhelmed and<br />
disappointed of its sad fate who was at the scene<br />
intervened, who was arrested.<br />
<strong>THE</strong> MOMENT OF THRUTH<br />

pág. 12
… That night also change the letter I responded<br />
on behalf of Marcela. While the expected by<br />
Marcela accompanied his a friend who was<br />
willing to help them escape.<br />
I come with the intention of convincing him to<br />
continue with my plan, but fails to convince him<br />
so I forced his out of that place and had it<br />
guarded by my men in my house.<br />
…and that is what happened.<br />
Judge- So, Having heard and analyzed the case,<br />
he asked the accused as stated to the court?<br />
- I plead guilty.<br />
TOP, TOP<br />
Was the last sound that Frank´s father heard<br />
while a judge seventy years in prison dictated.<br />
It was then that it occurred to me to believe that<br />
my son had jumped from the tower, but who in<br />
reality had fell from the tower was his friend ...<br />
because I pull him.<br />
Then page for that in the news instead of his<br />
name appeared on name of my son with his<br />
portrait, the portrait of Frank…<br />
Judge- Rises the session<br />
<strong>THE</strong> END<br />
