Friends
After rummaging Paco usually go to the Retiro. He likes to feel the freedom that you breathe through the trees and grass of the course. If you are worth, willingly in that green is tumbarÃa mustache that has come to Madrid, but one of the gardeners have profiling. If he catches which again frolicking San Bernardo, he kicked out. And he does not want that. He needs the waiting period between when evening falls and obscures, to shake pollution enduring daily in rush hour. Usually "work" Atocha Station. And, well, not that much pull, but is allowing it to bad eating and bad drinking. Yes, Paco likes wine. Recognized as a small vice, but after all he is old and he knows, she has never been with anyone. Moreover Who cares if the elbow solo climbs and sleeps it off at an ATM or a bank of Retirement? For anyone. His time passed, and now the least is if you had or did have, if you wanted or you miss the dreams that never came true.

I let you choose, but I warn you that the guy who threw it into the trash wearing braces. I do not know if you'll be scrupulous. You know I'm cured and horror. - Le looks waiting for your reply - . What? Do not say anything? Are we as usual? As with the shyness is not dinner, kid.
His friend smiles, but without leaving the site.
Paco nods and goes to one of the banks that are a bit away. Extends a newspaper and placed there the sandwiches and cartons of wine.
- It will come when you squeeze the hungry. I, meanwhile, I'll take a few sips if you do not mind.
must be patient. The boy is elusive and wary as a wounded puppy. Sunset
a rush and the square is deserted. A deafening thunder sound buries from suppliers. Finally, your friend decides to join him.
- That you do not have any grace, Fer. Always wait for people to go to get off the pedestal, and I have to go mad in the meantime. Looks like I'm talking to myself. I look weird and the kids laugh.
- A do have to be.
Choose a sandwich and eat the two silent.
When they finish, Fer crouches and said his back moving the wings.
- Upload, it's getting late.
not think twice and is perched on the back of the angel, holding tight.
He glances before taking off. The deadly looks happy, like a child riding on a carousel for the first time.
