Te
despiertas una mañana de julio en Sevilla, tras una noche
asfixiante, los aparatos de aire zumbando en tus oídos cual cigarras
tecnológicas. Pensabas caminar al fresco tempranero. Incluso te has
vestido con esas mallas tan cómodas y un calzado apropiado. Después
del desayuno, pasadas las nueve, se ha hecho demasiado tarde. Hace
tanto calor que un paseo a esa hora puede deshidratar a la más
atlética.
Enfrentarse
al espejo se ha convertido en un suplicio los últimos días. Pareces
hinchada. ¿Estás más gorda?, te preguntas sin atreverte a poner
los pies en la báscula. La cervecita, las tapas, los helados,... El
verano es un cúmulo de tentaciones y tienes la tendencia natural de
caer en todas.
¿Y
el rostro? Desde luego que la edad no perdona, aunque te aseguraron
en la tienda que aquella crema de día ocultaba las manchas. Tanto la
crema de día como la de noche carecen de poderes milagrosos. Tendrás
que resignarte a los efectos del tiempo en tu rostro.
En
verano, las playas del mundo se pueblan de cuerpos jóvenes y
hermosos, pieles doradas, largos cabellos con mechas brasileñas. En
los grandes almacenes apenas quedan bikinis de tu talla y te resistes
a enfundarte un bañador.
Por
suerte, has encendido el ordenador mientras los fideos hervían en la
sopa. Desde el facebook, has pinchado la canción.
-¡Valiente
imbécil! Te has dicho entre risas.
Gracias,
gracias, gracias, Colbie Caillat
