Today, after work, coming up the street Montalbán bus route. For the wide sidewalks going no more than me and a little later, a couple of women. Iban arm in arm and had to be a mother and daughter. Most have around sixty years to the girl I figured about forty, but it is always difficult to establish the age of a person with Down syndrome. This
, daughter, mother was talking and he interrupted: "Do not call her that."
But the daughter went on I do not know on what terms, because I was not paying attention, when suddenly the mother took her arm, turned and gave him two blows with such force that reverberated across the street.
"I told you not call her that.
I can assure you that I was so impressed by the sound of the slaps and the fearlessness with which the victim endured knew not react. I stood in the middle of the street, stunned and paralyzed. No fear, were two elderly people, but of pure astonishment. Women meanwhile
kept walking, the girl with the red face, and I then I was late and I decided to follow them, ready, now, to intervene if the mother returned to raise his hand to his daughter. And walking behind them, saw them back, I noticed that the daughter's head rested gently on the shoulder of the mother and she, very tenderly and lovingly stroked her hair.
