Disguise?

I am scared he said...it was 4:06 in the morning and with a little courage and convincing i woke up to listen...I saw this guy, he was in a lot of pain, walking around aimlessly,watching people and families having a good time. He somehow did not care or feel the joy of others, he was in his own shell, covered by confusion, anger, pain, sadness and lost of faith. I watched as he went to a group of friends and offered to give them a good bargain on a magic stone he possesses, he said. He showed them the tricks the stone could do. One of them knew the disguise of this men the moment he laid his eyes on him. He could see through him and saw the trapped emotions in this guy and took a step back. The other two however were more impressed with the properties of this stone and took a step forward to discuss... After some brief negotiation on the price, the two friends quickly agreed to a price as they wanted this magical stone in their hands as quickly as possible. The man walked away into the crowd just as quickly as the deal was made. But the man was in disguise...the stone was not real...it turned out to be a rock from the streets. By the time the friends realized he was gone with the wind... I saw the fear in him as he told me this story...what happened i ask... The man was in disguise...was the magic in disguise too? he asked with some tears finding its way out of his eyes... Lets go for a walk i said as i got off the bed, grab my jacket and walked with him alongside...in silence...
