“We drew.  But the car.  Do you remember ‘pushy’ Moises, from town?  He kept sending me letters.  That he can’t stop thinking about me.  That he needs to see me.  Then my cousin arrives carrying a bunch of letters.  And I recognize Moises’ handwriting on one.  So I grabbed it and opened it.  ‘I can’t stop thinking about you.  I want to see you.’  Yeah right, ‘sweet.’  That letter was from another girl!  The bastard sends exactly the same letter to all the girls.” — Adela

“Hello Ramón!  Hello, Fermín!  Thanks, we ate.  Let’s go.  What, you’re not coming?  Look at you.  I’d rather play in the dark.  Tell me everything later.  Why didn’t you wake me?  Ah.  Your oatmeal is ready, doctor.” — Adela
