SEÑORA Sometimes, your whole life goes by
without anything wonderful happening to you. It’s
been eleven years since my husband died. You know,
son, it’s been so long since I’ve been kissed!
SEÑORA Hey! Juan, what’s going on?
JUAN He loves her; she doesn’t believe him.
CAJERA Who’s next?
VIAJERO Listen to me, Ana, please.
JUAN He loves her; she doesn’t believe him.
JUAN Excuse me for breaking into the
conversation, but what makes you think this is
a joke?
CAJERA I don’t know...
JUAN Believe him. He seems like a good guy.
CAJERA It’s just that we don’t even know each
other.
VIAJERO We’ve known each other for more than a
year. You’re the one that always serves me. I’m the
one that goes to the capital.
CAJERA Everyone goes to the capital.
VIAJERO Exactly 375 times, not counting today.
Look... here they all are: 375 tickets, one by one.
Except the ones from that week when you were sick
with the flu; I keep them as a souvenir.
CAJERA What do you want from me?
VIAJERO To dance.
CAJERA Dance?
VIAJERO To dance, to hug you, to kiss you...
CAJERA Not now, I can’t, I’m working.
