Start part A
Twenty years ago in an alleyway...
Anthony's mother rummages through a dumpster.
Mom: Haha! Hey Anthony, sweetie! Look what Mama found!
Anthony looks back at his mother.
Anthony: What is it, Mama?
Anthony's mother holds a DVD out towards her son.
Anthony: A circle video!?
Mom: Yes! Oh, I haven't seen one since I was a kid!
Anthony admires the DVD.
Anthony: Awesome, Mama! You're awesome!
Mom: Yeah!
Anthony: How do we use it?!
Mom: To use it, we need an electronic.
Anthony: Do we have one?!
Anthony's mother thinks for a moment.
Mom: No... I don't think so... But if we ever do get one, let's watch it together, okay?
Anthony: Okay!
Anthony's mother pulls him into an embrace.
Anthony: Mama...?
Mom: I love you more than anything, honey...
Anthony: I love you too, Mama!
Mom: More than anything... It's getting late you should sleep.
Anthony: Okay!
Anthony lies on a pile of garbage bags.
Anthony: Good night, Mama...
Mom: Yeah... Goodnight.
Soon, Anthony falls asleep. His mother sits against a wall.
Mom: I'm sorry... That I can't do more... Anthony...
She whispered as a group of parasites walked from the shadows.
Mom: Yeah, yeah... I know... Come get your fill...
Start part B
The next morning...
Anthony opens his eyes and sees his mother lying on her back, looking exhausted and in pain.
Anthony: Mama...?
Mom: G-Good morning baby...
Anthony: Are you okay?
Mom: Yeah, just a slight back pain, that's all...
Anthony's mother forces a smile.
Anthony: If you say so... Anyway, guess what!
Mom: What is it...?
Anthony: I had a dream that I rode a horse!
Mom: Oh really...?
Anthony: Yes!
Mom: That's nice, honey...
...
Mom: Is it okay if Mama sleeps for a bit...?
Anthony: Uh huh! I wanna sleep, too!
Mom: Alright, come here...
Anthony cuddles with his mother.
The two fall asleep.
A few minutes later...
CLATTER!!!
