Narrative Gap

I had to sleep in the ditch again today, and they beat me up again it always happens, then that bunch of guys came and beat me up. Can’t they leave me alone? I never do anything to them. They don’t own the ditch. Then Vladimir had the nerve to say that without him I’d be nothing. I admit I wouldn’t be very well off without him, but where was he when I was getting beat in the ditch, he helped me with a few things, but really I can take care of myself. I do appreciate it when he helps with my boots, those are tough to get off.
