Robert to the alley. “What you will do to me?” ask Robert. “You will find out”
said the hoodlum 1 while give some pounding to Robert’s face, stomach and nose.
“Please… don’t do that again!” groan Robert. “Check in his bag, if he have some

'Til

“Is it nice song” said July to
singing beggar while put out the money and give to singing beggar. “Oh… thank
you, miss” said the singing beggar. “Tonight is my luck night so I’m just want
to share it” said July while walk away from the discotheque. In the underneath
of the bridge, Robert put off the gown and his makeup and smile, maybe he
thought being transvestite and wearing woman cloth more get appreciated. In his
mattress, he is laying down looking the bridge ceiling and he is crying and
crying a long night.

Singing my
life with his words,
Killing me
softly with his song,
Killing me
softly with his song,
Telling my
whole life with his words,
Killing me
softly with his song...
I heard he sang a good song,
I heard he
had a style.
And so I
came to see him to listen for a while.
And there
he was this young boy, a stranger to my eyes.
Strumming my pain with his fingers,
Singing my
life with his words,
Killing me
softly with his song,
Killing me
softly with his song,
Telling my
whole life with his words,
Killing me
softly with his song...
I felt all flushed with fever, embarrassed by the crowd,
I felt he
found my letters and read each one out loud.
I prayed
that he would finish but he just kept right on...
Strumming my pain with his fingers,
Singing my
life with his words,
Killing me
softly with his song,
Killing me
softly with his song,
Telling my
whole life with his words,
Killing me
softly with his song...
He sang as if he knew me in all my dark despair.
And then
he looked right through me as if I wasn't there.
But he
just came to singing, singing clear and strong.
Strumming my pain with his fingers,
Singing my
life with his words,
Killing me
softly with his song,
Killing me
softly with his song,
Telling my
whole life with his words,
Killing me
softly with his song...
He was strumming, oh, he was singing my song.
Killing me
softly with his song,
Killing me
softly with his song,
Telling my
whole life with his words,
Killing me
softly with his song ... With his song
“You have nice voice” said the singing
beggar. “Please don’t say that. And you too… you look so expertly when playing
the guitar” said July. “Hmm… thanks” said the singing beggar. “Why you are not

the bar tender while preparing the drink. “Oh… I’m sorry I can’t drink” said
July. “Why? Is it impolite to refuse my tip” said the man “You should try this

pinch.
And start from that, July or Robert
as being alcoholic. And having an effect on his healthy. Every single minute,
he is whooping. And in a month, he wasn’t going to the discotheque. One day, he
goes to pharmacy want to buy medication to heal his chough. At the same time,

several shops but until on the front door of pharmacy, she is stop and staring
around but not come to inside the pharmacy. Unwittingly also for Robert is
still in the pharmacy, when the Old woman continue searching Robert and after
Robert pay and leave out from the pharmacy, Robert walk in different direction.
Suddenly the Old woman turn walk back again, she thought she will find on the
pharmacy. Until in the pharmacy, “Excuse, miss. Did you meat this young man?”
ask the Old woman while show out the Robert’s photo to shopkeeper. “You just
cross over with this man” said the shopkeeper. “Really?” said the Old woman.
“Where is he take direction?” ask the Old woman again. “On the left” said the
shopkeeper again. “Thank you” said the Old woman.
In the Police station. “Sir, we just

“Your deserve it!” said Anna.
Now, the Old woman, Alice, Anna and
Jessica and also the Police officer are searching Robert to all direction and
little bit of clue about the location of Robert is appreciated. In the
underneath of the bridge, Robert is preparing to go to discotheque with wearing
his woman cloth. Until on the front door of discotheque, the singing beggar is
accosting to Robert, “Hi July” said the singing beggar. “How come you know my name?”
