X is walking peacefully. As he keeps going, people start to murmur and he doesn't understand why. Also, if he tries to look at them, they turn their faces away. What's wrong? He is just arrived, he doesn't know anyone and they don't know him at all. So he tries to ignore them, but then, when he enters a shop, nobody listen to him: they just say to X that he has to clear off. What's happening? Why are all so rude?
He walks away with a heavy heart: all the world seems to hate him and also he has no food, no shelter, no friends and no family. Suddenly X sees a homeless dressed in rags who lays down on a cardboard: he stops for a while, asking himself why people walk by as he was invisible and don't help him maybe with some money or food or something that can protect him from the bad weather. Then X remembers his land, where even strangers are a part of a big family, where they share what they have, they are caring and kind and nobody is alone.
X moves towards him: he doesn't have much money so that homeless wouldn't buy a lot of food but it's surely better than nothing. Then he opens his bag and takes out a bottle of water he has brought during his journey, he puts it on the ground next to that poor man and he keeps on walking.
