Hoffman. I still can't understand about cops in his home.

Clerk: Let me tell you something, I've seen them in his home talking to his wife while he was coming from New York on the train, and Eldo told me a secret

Hoffman: What secret?

Clerk: A few months before that harrowing morning, Eldo amet his wife on the porch of their house on Prescott street, she was in a bad mood, he asked her, "What's wrong ?"

" Nothing," she replied, then, he had some water, and a few minutes later, he sat by her side on the porch stairs, tousled her blond hair, and asked again: what's wrong with you? where's your sweet smile? What's the matter? She replied: " I've made a mistake in marrying you; I just want to live alone; I don't love you anymore."

Hoffman- Damn! They've been living together for ten years and they have a nine-year-old boy,and a dream to raise him here.

Clerk: He thought "She must be stressed"She's been working a lot." So,She said she wanted to live with no husband and no marriage rules, and told him to leave the house as soon as possible; she didn't want any intimacy with him anymore.

Hoffman- Damn, Holy shit!

Clerk- He didn't understand at all,they didn't have even a slight discussion,everything sounded perfect,he was surprided for this decision, she even had filed for a restraining order.

Hoffman: Holy shit!

Click: He had no place to stay,and nowhere to go, but he thought God always helped him in the worst situations,then he decided to go to the unification church in Boston, where he used to be a Moonie in the eighthies,So, he spent some days at the church waking up at five in the morning, to go to the Prayer room and ask for God to change his wife's mind.

Hoffman- Did he call his wife from the moonies?

Clerk: - Yeah, he did; he called her, but he didn't say, he was at the church.
He said, "I wander on the streets of Boston, begging for food and sleeping on the Bus station bench"

Hoffman: I got it; he lied, trying to change her mind,and what was her reaction?

Clerk : - She didn't care wherever he was and she replied, " I don't want you here anymore," and hung up the phone, and then he " smelt the rat"

Hoffman- Holy shit, now he smells the rat,! he's a fucking stupid idiot!

Clerk- The next morning about five am , he was at home, but instead of knocking the door, he went straight to the basement.

Hoffman- Basement? For what? to pray again?

Clerk : He saw that the basement was open

There were some old leaking pipes and a puddle on the floor

There were some old leaking pipes and a puddle on the floor

Hoffman- Shit! a bad spot to meet God,he won't be there.

Clerk:- The water was hitting the puddle over and over; it was like a Chinese torture

Hoffman- Damn! A dirty basement, with the stressful sound of water, he would never find God in that basement.

Clerk:- He had to keep his head bowed to walk around, but It was a perfect place for a spy.

Hoffman- A spy? Holy shit!, he's a fucking stupid idiot in a dangerous place with a lot of live wire

Clerk:- He found a spot under the couple's bedroom where the telephone was.

Hoffman- He's too stupid,he won't find out a secret in the basement.

Clerk- The phone rang; he only could listen to her voice, but it was enough to understand any conversation, and this one wasn't so interesting

Clerk: A few minutes later, they left the house, and finally, he heard the car leaving the driveway, his son went to school, and she went to work

Hoffman: And the fucking stupid Idiot stayed in the basement,holy shit!

Clerk: He wanted to find out why she asked him to leave the house, there were no reason for this decision.

Hoffman-
They planned to fulfill the dream of raising their son in the US; why did she change?

Clerk: -So, at about four pm he heard some noise at the front door, she came back home with the little boy, then the phone started ringing, and by the talking, he understood that someone had asked her something, and she would deliver it soon and hung up the phone, his son said something, but it wasn't audible, and a few minutes later, she said,- " I'm leaving; I'll be back soon." but before leaving, the phone rang again, and she ran to pick up the phone,it sounded this was a nice conversation; he kept listening,then she said: " Yeah, Maria, I have it; I will deliver it to you too.

Hoffman: You see? No fucking secret !

Clerk; The phone rang again; she picked it up and Eldo remained focused on what she was saying , Hi,how you doing?,I miss you. She stopped talking and he waited for her turn to talk again,  and he heard her again  " I'm pregnant with you" "Yes, I'm pregnant, I'm sure, it's yours".

Hoffman- Bitch!, she was pregnant with somebody else.

Clerk: Every word pierced him like a dagger, it shattered his world, he felt anger rise within him, mixed with sadness,his heart raced.

Hoffman- Damn! She's a fucking bitch!

Clerk-Eldo's heart started beating faster and faster; his body was shaking; he couldn't even breathe.

Hoffman: Holy fucking Bitch!
