Something Amiss (3)

Outside the restaurant, a woman with messy hair and shabby clothes had been thrown out of the building entrance. Without a care for her own condition, she immediately tried to get up to barge back into the restaurant.

"Let me in! My children… my children are still inside…" That woman reached forward to enter the restaurant but was instantly thrown out again by a waiter from the restaurant.

The surrounding spectators seemed to be used to such scenes and appeared to be eagerly waiting for the chance to watch a good show.

The woman was filthy and her raised hands were black with dirt. She stared into the building with bloodshot eyes, repeatedly trying to barge into the restaurant. Every time they threw her out, she would rise again with renewed efforts.

"Let me in! My children! Give me back my children!" The woman wailed out her heart-wrenching plea. But the faces of the bystanders held not the slightest bit of sympathy.
