THE SOLDIERS

THE SOLDIERS
At a railway station, two soldiers, leaning over the counter, buy tickets. Their hands trembling. They are nervous.
A man comes, a seller, who brings three crutches in hand. He waits that soldiers buy their tickets to approach, offering the crutches for good price.
But the two soldiers have intact legs, they walk normally.

OS SOLDADOS

Numa estação de comboios, dois soldados, debruçados sobre o guichê, compram os bilhetes. As suas mãos tremem. Estão nervosos.
Passa um homem, um vendedor, que traz três muletas na mão. Espera que os soldados comprem os seus bilhetes para se aproximar, oferecendo as muletas por bom preço.
Mas os dois soldados têm as pernas intactas, caminham normalmente.
