Gabriel

This morning, Gabriel came by with his face all swollen.
A crook from Barrio Maldito had hit him in the face again.
These guys are usually high, stoned, drunk and mostly just stupid.
Gabriel was clean from sniffing glue for months, but now it got so bad that he is sniffing glue right in front of me.
Nobody has ever done that before.
I know most guys sniff, but out of respect (or fear to be thrown off the list?!) they hide their bad habits from me.
Anyway... I have told him dozens of times that he should avoid that certain corner, which he never does.
So I just took care of the infection, as always.
And I told him to stay away from that corner, as always.
That's all I can do, I suppose.
