Rómulo lives every day caring for an old man he loves deeply. This affection clashes with the revulsion he feels as he becomes obsessed with his grandfather’s sick eye, planning to kill him after watching him sleep for several nights. Rómulo anxiously recounts each step of his macabre plan, until an unexpected visitor threatens to expose the crime he has just committed.
