The news took me by surprise, everything began to revolve around me. It was a slow rotation that didn't make me dizzy but somehow prevented me from assimilating the news.
A few weeks ago my son introduced me to his girlfriend who conspicuously looked high class, the way she spoke and her elegant tailored suit matched her beautiful gray eyes. So far everything was going well, but as you well know, life has not treated me well economically, what was I going to dress to be more less up to par, maybe rent a suit, I don't know.
I was there when my future father-in-law arrived in a limousine to intensify my nervousness, he took me to a men's clothing store that looked quite expensive, it seemed that everyone knew them, the employees were quite friendly. The tailor came in, took my measurements and told me not to worry about the cost.
A day before to the wedding, the tailor and one of his assistants came to my house with a box containing my suit, shoes and accessories included. But when I proved it, vertigo and rage took hold of me, it was a pirate suit, pirate boots and even a pirate sword. It fit me perfectly, I held my breath and thanked the tailors for their work.
-But what does this old man think he wants to make fun of me- I said angrily
That same afternoon I went with a friend who owns a dry cleaner to lend me one of his most elegant suits.
The next day I showed up at the wedding, but when I got to the top of the plateau I realized the mistake I had made. Everyone at the party was dressed as pirates, the dance floor was the deck of a ship, even the sails were flapping in the weak wind of that summer.
I quickly told my friend where I had left the pirate costume and asked him to bring it to the party. When he arrived I changed quickly, I would have been late for the civil ceremony it had not been that the judge had also been late.
La noticia me tomó por sorpresa, todo empezó a girar en torno mío. Era una rotación lenta que no alcanzaba a marearme pero de que de alguna forma me impedía asimilar la noticia.
Hace algunas semanas mi hijo me presentó a su novia que notoriamente se veía de clase alta, la forma en la que hablaba y su elegante traje sastre hacían juego con sus hermosos ojos grises. Hasta ahí todo iba bien, pero como bien saben la vida no me ha tratado bien en lo económico, que iba yo a vestir para estar mas menos a la altura, tal vez alquilar un traje, no se.
En eso estaba cuando llegó mu futuro consuegro en una limusina para hacer mas intenso mi nerviosismo, me llevó a una tienda de ropa para caballeros que se veía bastante costosa, ahí parecía que todos los conocía, los empleados eran bastante amables. Llegó el sastre, me tomó medidas y me dijo que no me preocupara por el costo,
Un días antes de la boda, el sastre y uno de sus asistentes llegaron a mi casa con una caja donde venía mi traje, zapatos y accesorios incluidos. Pero al provarmelo el vértigo y la rabia se apoderaron de mi, se trataba de un traje de pirata, botas de pirata e incluso una espada de pirata. Me quedaba perfecto, aguanté la respiración y le agradecí a los sastres por su trabajo.
-Pero que se ha creído este anciano que se quiere burlar de mi- me dije con rabia
Esa misma tarde fui con un amigo que tiene una tintorería para que me prestara uno de sus mas elegantes trajes.
Al día siguiente me presente en la boda, pero al llegar a lo alto de la meseta me di cuenta del error que había cometido. Todos en la fiesta estaban vestidos de piratas, la pista de baile era la cubierta de un barco, incluso las velas estaba ondeando con el débil viento de de ese verano.
Rápidamente le hablé a mi amigo donde había dejado el traje de pirata y le pedí que me lo trajera a la fiesta. Cuando llegó me cambié de prisa, hubiera llegado tarde a la ceremonia civil de no ser que el juez también se había retrasado
