- Beginning
It was getting on toward six o’clock
so I thought I’d buy myself a beer and go out and sit in a deck
chair by the swimming pool and have a little evening sun.
It starts
outside a hotel, under a yellow umbrella by the swimming pool. Me
and the little man watching Americans cadets and English girls in the
swimming pool. The
young boy and an
English girl came up to the little man and me
and sat down at the same table. The young
boy offers a
smoke to everyone. When he's going to light the smoke between his
lips, the little man says: "That will not work in this wind."
"Sure it'll work. It always works" the cadet answers. The
little man starts discussing with the cadet and offers a bet, the bet
I about the lighter successfully lights 10 times I a raw,without
failing one single time.
- Climax
He will get a Cadillac if he makes
the bet. If the lighter wont light, he must scarify one of the little
finger. The young boy is “in” and they goes up to the hotel room
to do the bet.As soon as the little man gets the equipment he needs
to hold his hand, he starts to prepare the bet. The cadet has to have
his hand on a table, so the little man can take his finger as soon as
the lighter fails to light.
- End
When they were in the middle of the
bet, a woman came in and interrupted, probably the wife of the little
man. She told the young boys that the little man is mentally
disturbed, in the last years he has chopped of more than 47 fingers
from different people. They can’t go through with the bet because
he doesn’t have anything to bet. The car doesn’t belong to the
little man, it belong to the woman.
