Amor sin arrugas Page #4

---

any family, so she was brought her here

She's just cast aside

up there, like a thing.

We're all just abandoned here like junk.

Nothing to swallow, nothing to swallow...

It must be another way

It must be another way

I told you that it is better

not to go up there.

Miguel

I have Alzheimer's.

They told you?

They didn't dare to tell me.

But I'm not an imbecile.

You knew?

Rockefeller, I've been here for over

two years, you learn these things quickly

My previous roommate Paco,

whose place you got

also had Alzheimer's.

Paco was a good guy.

He died?

No, not that I know of.

They moved him upstairs.

I think he's still there.

I don't want to end up like that.

Look, Emilio, don't worry too much.

You can live for years with Alzheimer's

and be fine

But when it turns for the worse...

You know, the pills you found.

I'm keeping them for myself.

In case...

That my condition worsens.

But I could get more.

No, this does not seem right.

Nothing seems right to you, Rockefeller.

But moralizing's so useless.

In this case, you have two options.

You can convince yourself

that everything will be fine.

Imagining the Orient Express.

That in the spring you'll swim in the pool.

And you'll end up like the others.

Or you can face reality.

Rockefeller, come out, buddy!

Do not do anything stupid!

Rockefeller, come here!

You've gone mad!

What are you doing?!

Rockefeller!

Rockefeller!

Sh*t!

Rockefeller, what are you doing?

Come!

Come out.

- Come on, get up.

- Do not touch me, leave me.

This is stupid! I'm not dead,

See? Stiill not dead.

I do not know how it will be a year,

but right now I'm alive!

And this is a pool,

and I want to swim here, period!

End of discussion.

And if you do not like it...

F*** you.

This is what you're doing?

You're swimming?

Of course, what else would I do?

But Rockefeller, you can't swim like this.

If you want to go swimming,

first, you have to undress.

Well, who are you to criticize?

You still have your coat on.

Rockefeller?

You'll see, the two of us will work it out.

We won't end up on the top floor.

Here, I'll do it. It's important that

you're well dressed, Rockefeller.

Especially today.

The doctor and other staff always

know that our minds go

as clothes go, you know?

Yes, like the woman,

The lady who wore too much makeup.

Yes, like, Mrs. Josefa.

In the morning, when you come out, they can

tell if you awoke with all your neurons.

Okay. Tuck your shirt in well.

Which tie do you want?

The one from always, or the red one?

The one from always.

Are you sure?

The red looks more elegant.

No, no, I don't like the red one.

In fact, I never wear it.

I don't know why I brought it here.

Must be for sentimental value.

Damn, I'm not tying it well,

it never comes out straight.

Well, it's not a work of art,

but there it is.

- Thank you, Miguel.

- Yeah.

Now, your cuff.

No, leave the left unbuttoned,

so you can see your answers.

You remember that I wrote them there?

Oh yes, of course.

The questions are always the same.

So if you can see them,

it's no problem.

You must be careful to keep your hand

near your body so they don't see you.

You're not nervous, right?

Who? Me? No. But it's the first time

I've used a cheat sheet.

Don't worry, Rockefeller,

I am an expert at this.

Your arms go in here.

Do not worry, I'll be at your side

and I'll handle everything.

What makes you so sure that

they'll let you in the office with me?

The office? The office won't be available

due to minor technical difficulties

No, I think we have to call a locksmith.

Someone pushed the gum

all the way to the back.

We'll go to the Glass Hall.

So Emilio, we're going to do the test here

while they fix the lock on the office.

Or we can leave it for another day if

the noise is distracting.

No, it's okay with me.

Okay. One moment,

let me open this program.

That'is it. Emilio, tell me

about dinner yesterday.

Dinner?

I should tell you about dinner?

Yes, for example

what was the main course?

Oh, good.

So...

Main course...

To the main course...

They brought us...

Tell me about anything,

anything you remember about dinner.

- About dinner. About dinner.

- Not now, Ramon.

We're busy.

We're busy. We're busy...

- ...We're busy...

- Ramone, calm down!

Stop.

Emilio, you feel okay?

- Do you mind the noise?

- No, no...

Go away Ramon, stop distracting Emilio,

we're doing something important.

So Emilio,

Let's start from the beginning.

Tell me about last night's dinner.

Yes, of course, about dinner.

Honestly, I don't pay much attention

to those kinds of things.

The food is always pretty much the same.

Well, I guess you're right, Emilio.

There's not a lot of variety.

Okay, the next question is...

Look,

I cut myself on the stupid alarm.

Should I sue them Rockefeller?

I didn't do very well, did I?

No, what are you saying?

It worked very well, you'll see.

Tomorrow I'll keep the Doc busy

with a few backaches, a migraine...

he won't remember you till next year.

Do not worry, Rockefeller,

everything is under control.

Miguel.

Hello Martin, how's it going?

How is Laika? Still biting slippers?

What? So soon?

Well... You could not get me another?

Yeah, don't worry, I'll get one for you.

This time I'll try to get fox terriers.

Age is something natural,

not a national crisis.

we don't want to burden our families,

if we did, they could not work

Don't call us "old farts"

we aren't just bags of bones.

better that you call us older /

And up until now

I can't think of anything that

rhymes with "better and older"

Which is better? "Call us older,

because we're always shaky."

Miguel, always the same.

Or this:
Call us older, because

we're always achey

Waitress! Waitress!

- What's going on, Emilio?

- This knife is completely dull.

- What, Emilio, what do you need?

- I mean, that...

Emilio wanted to ask whether

from now we could always get sandwiches?

- Sandwiches?

- Yes, sandwiches.

Just a biteful of sandwich, you know?

Oh, well, it would probably be okay.

You want sandwiches, Emilio?

Well.. yes, yes, I do.

Well then, let me ask

in the kitchen and see what they say.

Thank you sweetheart,

every day you're prettier.

Emilio, why don't you try the knife

that lies next to the plate?

You'll see that it cuts well.

Why do they put so much stuff on the table?

All this crap?!

What they want to achieve?

Confuse us?

Take it easy, Rockefeller, from tomorrow

we will have sandwiches and avoid problems.

What do you say?

It's not a bad idea, Emilio. If it

weren't for the vegetables, I'd join you.

Yes, Emilio.

See, some fell out.

But, I cleaned it.

- What do you say to make him smile?

- Say what, to Modesto?

Yes. What do you say to make him smile?

Oh, it's just a silly old joke.

I call him a cheat!

A cheat? Why?

We have a story from our childhood,

when we lived in a village.

Llisten, I'll tell you.

We were probably about twelve

or thirteen years old.
