Read the excerpt from "Lather and Nothing Else" A little more lather here under the chin, on the Adam’s apple, right near the great vein. How hot it is! Torres must be sweating just as I am. But he is not afraid. He is a tranquil man, who is not even giving thought to what he will do to his prisoners this evening. I, on the other hand, polishing his skin with this razor but avoiding the drawing of blood, careful with every stroke—I cannot keep my thoughts in order. How does the author best create suspense in this excerpt?

In the sort story "Lather And Nothing Else" by Hernando Tellez, the plot revolves around the internal conflict of a barber who wished to kill his customer, General Tortes. Turns out that the barber had been a revolutionary, and the general was the head of the military that is trying to remove all the revolutionaries.

In the given excerpt, the barber is in a dilemma whether to kill the general while he's shaving him, for the opportunity is perfect. But then he decides that he may be a revolutionary, but not an executioner like the general. His decision to not kill him was a result of extreme internal conflict between himself. But in the end, it serves him in a good way for the general had already known his true identity and ha just tested him by coming to his shop. The author uses short sentences in presenting the scene in the shop, and the confusion in him to create a sense of suspense in the barber.
