"This ball is something special and I would prefer not to sell it, my boy."Paul looked up to the strange man. He was very huge and thin. His face was wrinkled and he had no single hair on his head. He wore a leather coat reaching to the ground. From the beginning he gave him the creeps and Paul did not dare to visit him at his stand. He had never seen this man before at the flea market, and the articles he was offering were very strange, too.
