La alfombra era tan gruesa y mullida que enseguida me descalcé en la puerta y entré descalza, disfrutando de la agradable sensación de suavidad por la forma en que se me hundían los pies.
The carpet was so plush and deep that I immediately shed my shoes at the door and walked in barefoot, luxuriating in the way my feet sank into that softness.
«Fue la primera vez que me descalcé en público». Ella se fijó en los dos piececitos, arqueados al máximo para tocar lo menos posible las baldosas, y sólo entonces advirtió que eso sí era una confesión, que él estaba entregando una distraída revelación del pasado, y desde luego trató de fijar para siempre la gran esperanza frustrada de aquella foto de otro tiempo y trató asimismo de descubrir qué sobrevivía aún de aquel chico en este tipo de ojos agrisados, ya no demasiado joven, que hacía rato la estaba deseando y que siempre existía retrocediendo.
‘That was the first time I went barefoot in public.’ She stared at the two small feet that were arched as high as possible to avoid contact with the paving stones. It was only then she realized this was a confession, that he was offering her a casual revelation of his past. She tried to fix in her memory the immense, frustrated, hope evident in that photo from a far-distant past. She tried to work out what still survived of that little boy in this man with eyes that had turned grey, a man no longer so young, who for a while now had been desiring her body and yet was constantly pulling himself back.
