Le coupé gris à injection déparait pas l’ensemble ; il y avait que le tarin qui marquait mal. Elle se promettait bien l’opération esthétique, la manœuvre de redressement, mais avant, elle voulait revoir Pierrot, pour lui flanquer du remords, sans doute ? Si seulement cet endoffé était pas tricard sur Paris, elle le remonterait avec lui. Ça datait de son arrivée de Babel-Oued, à Pierrot. Direct il était allé sur Paris, flambant marlou, faire voir aux ramollis arcans de Pigalle ce qu’était un homme.

Louison lui rendit son étreinte et salua gentiment la femme de son pote. Se tapant d’un coup le front, il courut jusqu’à la voiture et revint avec un hochet qu’il offrit solennellement au petit Mario qui babilla de contentement. La mère prit son enfant et partit avec lui dans la Mercédès qui démarra dans une gerbe de boue. Car maintenant les femmes gitanes conduisaient. Juste, elles écoutaient pas les discussions des hommes. Mario et Louison se congratulèrent un bon moment, se rappelèrent devant deux bibines brunes des coups fameux de leur association et tout naturellement, en arrivèrent au boulot d’aujourd’hui.

On se demandait quelle femme aurait voulu de ce grand corps dégingandé, surmonté d’une tête aux yeux globuleux, à la peau malsaine couverte de boutons d’humeur. À vrai dire, personne pouvait le sacquer, le Morpion, il aurait dégoûté un régiment de rats arméniens tellement il était visqueux dans ses rapports humains, mielleux fiellâtre, absolument antipathique à quiconque. Pourtant ce dégueulasse avait un amour dans sa vie, et deux passions. C’est vers le premier qu’il se hâtait, au sortir des Puces, pas du tout gêné par l’altercation et les rebuffades insultantes qu’il venait de se payer.
