She presided over the celebration, sitting off to one side, watching Teresa through a cloud of smoke the whole time, with a smile on her face and in her eyes. With her rich-girl attitude, it was as though she was just looking on, not really part of any of this—like some mommy who takes her little girl to a birthday party with hamburgers and clowns. Meanwhile Vicente Fernandez was singing about women and cheating, Chavela's breaking voice reeked of alcohol as she sang of bullets and cantinas, and Paquita la del Barrio belted out that song about a dog, loyal and unquestioning, lying always at your feet, all day and all evening, and in your bed at night. Teresa felt the embrace of the nostalgia, the music, and the accents of her homeland—the only thing lacking were chirrines strolling down the prison corridors making music, and a case of long-necked Pacificos— although she was a bit befuddled by the hashish burning between her fingers.
Presidía el festejo en honor de Teresa un poquito aparte, observándola todo el rato entre el humo, con una sonrisa en la boca y en los ojos, el aire golfo, distante como si nada fuese con ella, igual que una mamacita que llevara a su nena a una fiesta de cumpleaños con hamburguesas y amiguitos y payasos, mientras Vicente Fernández cantaba sobre mujeres y traiciones, la voz rota de Chavela regaba alcohol entre balazos en suelos de cantinas, y Paquita la del Barrio bramaba aquello de como un perro, sin un reproche, siempre tirada a tus pies, de día y de noche. Teresa se sentía acunada por la nostalgia de la música y los acentos de su tierra, que sólo faltaban chirrines y unas medias Pacífico para que fuese completa, aturdida por el hachís que le ardía entre los dedos, pásalo nomás pa' andar iguales, carnalita, peores los he fumado yo, que de bajar al moro sé un rato.
