There she sat and waited until the sun went down. She wasn't going to risk her skin being cooked by the midday radiation. It has been quite an effort to walk down the cobblestone street in those heels to also add the sweat and the loss of glamor due to the Caribbean heat. Enough, she told herself. She will sit on the bench of the large wooden house on the other side of the roundabout to wait for the shadows of the trees to cover the entire avenue before taking the path to the theater. Bad communication is equivalent to getting an appointment wrong, arriving too early.
Allí esperó sentada hasta que el sol se fue. Ella no iba a arriesgar su piel a que se cocinara con la radiación del mediodía. Bastante esfuerzo ha sido el caminar por la calle empedrada en esos tacones para además sumar el sudor y la pérdida del glamour por el calor del caribe. Basta, se ha dicho ella. Se sentará en el banco de la gran casa de madera del otro lado de la rotonda a esperar a que las sombras de los árboles tapen toda la alameda para emprender el camino hacia el teatro. Mala comunicación equivale a equivocar el horario de una cita, para llegar demasiado temprano.
