     At six years the couple agreed Raul is a very dark and cold night. By raising your bed by the reflection mirror sees between-open the bedroom door of his mother. A man dressed in white and black to secure, he does not understand what is happening, her mother fell, he keeps seeing everything at his reflection in the mirror. One man dressed in black and white fades, the day dawns and his mother went to see him. The day ends with the poor Raul going to the funeral.

At six years the couple agreed Raul is a very dark and cold night. By raising your bed by the reflection mirror sees between-open the bedroom door of his mother. A man dressed in white and black to secure, he does not understand what is happening, her mother fell, he keeps seeing everything at his reflection in the mirror. One man dressed in black and white fades, the day dawns and his mother went to see him. The day ends with the poor Raul going to the funeral. 

 
That scene of the mirror, never left the mind of Ralph. 
 
He grew up and started to wear only black and white, as if to understand the scene or find the man. However, one detail stood out among many, it's hard not to notice it, sock roses in black-tie attire. And many wondered, what's with that guy? He wears black tie with pink socks? 
 
One day the sun went out earlier, the cold has come early, the night was dark he saw another man in white and black, was the same guy? 
 
He walked without fear, face to face with the nightmare and says: 
 
tonight familiar? 
 
It was a night like this you made my mom stop breathing. 
 
- Who are you, you idiot? 
 
- I'm your worst nightmare! 
 
- Dressed in black tie, you want me to fear? 
 
- No, wearing pink socks will end this nightmare! 
 
- Socks roses girl! Ah, hhh. 
 
- The color of the clothes my mother wore before your breath away! 
 
- Now remember that bitch. 
 
- Now I will take your breath away. 
 
- You will have to ... 
 
  
 
He could not complete the sentence. The pink socks were true . 
 
Raul then took off his black tie, only half-walked through the darkness, in the end he felt free. Again young, her mother was at peace, Raul is now another guy, he does not use black-tie.
