Mario: hello, miss brill how are you, you
know I've been watching you lately and I know what you love sitting on this
bench and watch the crowd.
Miss Brill: But, who are you, how do you know
that
Mario: let me tell you that I love to sit
on the bench of the park and watch the people like you do
Miss Brill: But I have not seen you here
Mario: I know, but don´t be afraid of me,
I just want to be your friend, my name is Mario
Miss Brill: it´s good to know that
Mario: I want to know why you think when
you are sitting on the bench.
miss brill: when I´m sitting on the bench I
love to hear the conversation of the
other people who´s around of me, it's
just like sitting in other people's
lives just for a minute
Mario: I've been seen you here as I told
you, but how long have you been coming here?
miss brill: oh, it’s a long time that I’ve
been coming here, every Sunday and I always find the band in the green rotunda,
the old beggar who sells flowers, the young, little girls, little boys, but
there is another ones who sit on the benches and they are always the same, it's
funny to see them because they are odd, silent and almost all old it seems like
every one of them would just come from dark little rooms or even cupboards.
Mario: it's interesting how you see the
world miss brill, but what is the most interesting thing that you ever seen
here?
miss brill :there's a lot of things for
example the other day I saw a beautiful
woman who was walking over here, and she dropped a bunch violets that she had, and suddenly
a little boy ran after to hand
them to her, she took them, but then she threw the violets away as if they'd
been poisoned.
Mario: I think I saw that situation too,
that day you was wearing a ermine toque and I think a gentle man in gray was in
front of you.
Miss Brill: you're right Mario that ermine
toque that I was wearing that day I bought a long time ago, when I was young.
Mario: what about the gentle man in grey?
miss brill: I don't know him but that day I thought
he wanted to know me , but it was my imagination, I didn't know what I
did maybe it was because of my old ermine toque.
Mario: don't worry Miss Brill, may be
some day you will find someone who wants to know you
Miss Brill: thank you, I invite you to eat a
slice a honey cake at the baker’s, sometimes there’s almond in the slice and
makes a great difference. For me it’s like surprise
Mario: oh thank you Miss Brill, and let
me tell you that you has a really nice fur; don’t pay attention to those ones
who make fun of you coat.
