A normal family


When things are done right, it is common to have a recognition, but it was rather strange that someone would notice the expertise of Gabriel in the embalming of corpses. And it was difficult for mourners will come to thank him for having gathered all the remaining parts of a family after a horrific accident, and present it as if sleeping peacefully.
Besides, it was a strange guy, had no relatives or friends, one day only appeared, wearing the same black suit he always wore and no longer left. Because people addressed him only out of necessity, they knew the terrible pain he carried inside, and how much he suffered from such loneliness. The only ones who did not flee their treatment were dead to all those who spent most of the time, and he always listened so carefully; surely they would have if grateful for his wonderful work if they could talk.
Although usually the people around did not pay much attention, they could not help noticing his sudden happiness, his sad face was lit up with a smile, and he looked more fluid, very close to passing by a normal person. But good things are short and good humor came, also left. You could see then anxious, desperate, at times distracted. He showed no interest in the job, and was seen snooping in areas where there were children. This last fact was the one who lit the red lights of neighbors.
One day without warning, broke into his house to give him a beating and force him to leave there, but they found a surprise, the man shared the table with a group of people. At the moment he saw the intruders did nothing but scream: 'Please do not hurt my family repeated this over and over again, while a couple of men held them, and the rest showed aghast at the scene, as the people sitting at the table, were only the embalmed corpses of some neighbors who died in recent days. Gabriel had taken and taken home after the funeral to become a normal family, to love him and keep him company.
Viewing on the table an empty place, and analyzing acts of man disturbed in recent days, deduced he was looking for an infant, because it was all that was missing from the family, who were present the alleged grandparents, parents, Gabriel wife, and a teenage boy. They frightened by this discovery, killed the man, tying to a chair and burning her house. I was burned with his fake family, it was not enough to complete.
They wanted to keep the fact secret, but could not help feeling nervous when the local boys started talking about a thin man dressed in black who walked around the playground. Some said they had burnt face and found traces of ashes in several parks and schools. Apparently not even death could remove him from his desire to combat loneliness and still looking for the missing family member to go to rest in peace.
