One morning, Warlla, the "chic beggar," passed by a diner at the bus station and saw Judge Suely having coffee. Suddenly, Warlla began to look at Suely with disdain, who asked:
- Is there a problem?
Warlla said:
- Honestly, you're quite strange, aren't you? Look at your head, a mosquito airport... I think a lot of people feel sorry for you because you're bald, you know? And you walk around barefoot looking like a beggar.
Suely said:
- Looking like a beggar? But who sleeps on the streets here?
- I am a beggar, but I'm chic. Look at me.
- That's right, Warlla, I'm looking at you and smelling a strong odor of urine and... do you really want me to say it?
- Don't be insolent.
Suely said:
- Warlla, when you were rich, you caused a lot of problems. I myself led several lawsuits against you." "Now, I see that you, even after living on the street for four years now, haven't changed; you're still the same arrogant person as always.
- You're just jealous of me because you're not as pretty as me.
Suely laughed and said:
- Jealous? I'm not better than anyone because of that, of course, but I have a job, I'm well-regarded, and I go to a house and sleep peacefully in my hammock; I don't like beds. But look, where do you sleep?"
Warlla clapped ironically, saying:
-The bald judge's mask has fallen; she already thinks she's the best because she has a house.
Suely said:
- Want some coffee? If you want, I'll pay."
- No. I don't want anything from a poor woman with a bald head and dirty feet.
- Poor woman? Funny, I'm the mayor's sister, I don't know if you know. Although I don't consider myself better than anyone because of that.
- Big deal, that little mayor is just like you. One day she'll be out of power, and then you'll be poor too.
Suely stood up and said:
- Warlla, you live on the streets, but you have the mentality of a rich person. I'm rich, but I have a humble mentality. Look, Warlla, honestly? Seek psychological treatment. There's free treatment available, you don't need to pay anything. There are people at the city hall who work with mental health.
- Look who's talking... a crazy woman who shaved her head and walks around barefoot.
- If you want to take it that way, it's your right. But you, Warlla, need to come down from your pedestal, you really do.
Warlla said:
- Look, do this: give me some change to buy a... cigarette.
- No. I don't help feed anyone's addiction. If you want, I'll pay for coffee or a snack, but don't count on me for cigarettes.
Warlla said:
- Idiot! I'm going to walk away; your poor mind might be contagious.
Warlla left, and Suely laughed, heading to the forum and remembering the whole thing.
