He starts to feel a tingling in his right hand. That means a break is coming. But he can't now, it's been hours since so many spectators gathered around him. He starts making faces to provoke smiles, all with the aim of stimulating donations. He tries not to think about the sweat dripping into his eyes; with a little more heat, his hair will lose its shape. Out of the corner of his eye, he sees too many hands with cell phones and few in pockets, so he has to start waking up a not-so-generous audience with a trick that breaks their immobility. He pretends his scarf flies off and his briefcase falls, with an exaggerated clumsiness that always pleases, while he takes the opportunity to comb his hair a bit. Finally, someone dares to leave a couple of coins and he has no choice but to forgive the horrible 'I love Barcelona' t-shirt they are wearing.
