O motorista do autocarro me deixou na rodoviária de Cárcere e seguiu viagem e fiquei lá sem dinheiro para comprar outro bilhete para chegar em Lisboa, uma mulher que eu nem conhecia ficou com pena de mim e comprou minha passagem para Lisboa. E eu vim sem minha mala , pois a mala já estava no autocarro, cheguei só agora aqui em Lisboa. Estou sem roupas para trocar.
