She has kept some really old ones and, rereading them, she feels a nostalgia that is only intensified when she can no longer remember to what those obscure notes refer. Pharmacy Tell Mila Nil’s story Reservations for Greece Call M. Reread all my notes Go back to that shop. Buy the dress? Reread Maupassant Get him a surprise?”

“Los vecinos se han agolpado a la entrada del edificio. Mujeres más que nada. Observan la ambulancia, con los ojos cuajados de lágrimas. Lloran y quieren enterarse. Se alzan de puntillas. Intentan distinguir lo que ocurre tras el cordón policial, dentro de la ambulancia que ha arrancado con las sirenas a todo volumen. Se susurran información al oído. Ya corre el rumor. Ha sucedido una desgracia a los niños.”
