JANUARY

FRIDAY 7th

I don't know, I don't think I like this jacket.

It's awful.

It's not horrible, go.

It's a bit horrendous.

- It's hard to give him presents. - Next year we won't be giving presents.

Every year they say that.

I wanted a leather jacket.

You should have spoken.

You have to say what you want.

I thought it best not to say anything.

You didn't either...

What's wrong?

Berta swallows everything her family does.

Did he mention the buttery cookies?

CHRISTMAS NIGHT

See how much food is left.

Take it for yourself.

Mom, I'm not eating that.

There's chicken.

Eat the prawns tomorrow.

Her sister wins the best things.

Take the wine too.

My sister was in a difficult phase.

She ended her relationship and was unemployed.

We haven't won a single shrimp.

I'm going out with you.

I thought to myself: "Here comes our part."

Patricio is a priest friend of my parents.

Chelo, nobody ate the buttery cookies.

He thought it was strange.

I won from the nuns.

They smelled old.

The nuns too.

Take the buttery ones for yourselves.

Every year we take the damn butterscotch.

- Thank you, Mom. - Thank you.

That's very kind of you.

- That's great. - That's very kind. That's great.

It always feels like you've won a car.

We're two idiots.

- They're delicious. - Delicious.

TUESDAY 11th

CONVENT OF THE SISTERS OF SAINT LEONOR

Those nuns are terrible.

They're drier than last year's.

Throw them away.

Every year he insists to eat the cookies.

I don't like throwing food away.

Have a cookie.

We both have to eat otherwise the box will last until summer.

I don't want to eat that.

I didn't want to eat it.

Look at that.

There was a new child in the nursery who cried whenever he saw me.

Now you come in.

It's just you.

I was devastated.

I thought to myself: "No wonder he's crying."

WEDNESDAY 12th

They may be nuns, but they're not good cooks.

I've spoken.

No kidding!

A few days earlier, they forgot a bag.

Should we call the police?

Not at all. We always call out of turn.

Last time they were pissed.

- Let's leave it in Lost and Found. - No, we'll wait.

Better leave it here.

I found the bag.

Nothing ever happens, so when it does, it's a mess.

- Keep it in the drawer. - This drawer is for documents.

- Leave a note for the night shift. - I will.

Where are the post-its?

That's when I said:

"Let's open it to see if there are any documents."

There were no documents.

Just makeup and stuff.

What are we going to do?

Let's put some makeup on.

I was joking.

This guy's an idiot.

I saw it was a moisturizer.

They always tell me I have dry skin.

It's not your moisturizer.

Did you apply moisturizer again?

It's very good.

I didn't use all that.

I saw the redhead's face...

I only passed once.

I had to try it.

This alternation between a warm place and the cold of the streets...

The skin suffers a lot.

So everyone put on moisturizer.

That was great.

I passed a few times.

I passed just once.

But all over my body.

But only once.

I said: "If the supervisor hears about this..."

He also passed.

I don't think it's right.

He's so right for some things.

But he smokes marijuana I know.

What's it got to do with anything?

THURSDAY 13th

- What a horrible cookie! - I said.

Look at that.

That morning we met an old man.

Hello?

Are you alone?

I thought he was going to rob us.

He must have been 90 years old.

So what? It's not easy. His pension must be shit.

Do you need help?

He didn't say a word. I suggested searching him.

I don't know, in the middle of the street, with people passing by...

Look at that.

Did you see that?

I had a friend who used all kinds of drugs,

and his mother hung a card with a phone number and address around his neck.

I still use the card.

"If I get lost, take me to the José de Villarreal retirement home."

It's just over there.

I couldn't take him. I had to go to work.

I didn't want to go.

I'll take you then.

I don't trust my sister-in-law very much.

She's a horror.

Twenty meters away, she walked into a bar.

- Weren't you in Murcia? - Yes.

- Buy me a beer? - Of course.

Oh, shit.

I thought: "This old man is going to miss dinner at the retirement home."

Let's go in.

FRIDAY 14th

Sorry, I forgot.

I couldn't go on like this.

The same thing happened to me a while ago.

He laughs at you.

At first, I was happy.

But after a while...

I was worried, you know?

Do you think I'm strange?

I'd rather you laugh than cry.

We told her to fix her hair.

Imagine that. As if a bun would make a difference.

Just imagine if that's it.

I only have brown clothes.

She just had to to change her look a bit.

One day, my mother showed up with a bag of clothes.

How can you throw these clothes away?

You could throw this coat away too.

- Where did you get this? - I got it for Christmas from my in-laws.

I went to pick up some clothes from the dry cleaners.

I was waiting and...

There you go.

What's that?

The cloak of Christ of the Church of Reconciliation.

Did you wash it with the other clothes?

Yes.

Son, I'm disgusted. I don't want to wear those clothes anymore.

Let's sell on the Internet.

You'll see.

And I completely forgot.

What a blast!

MONDAY 17TH

I felt very different.

Happier.

My posture has even become more upright.

It made me want to sing.

When you feel good in an outfit, you feel ecstatic.

I didn't think that was a good look.

Good morning.

I was looking like the crazy cat lady.

What did he say?

Good, but the boy stopped crying.

But I almost cried.

Don't I look wonderful?

FRIDAY 21st

What if I start dressing like her father?

Can you imagine?

We'd look like a couple of crazy people.

Look at that.

Let's see, let's see.

I think that's it...

My sister-in-law with the old man.

A week later.

Why is he still here?

I haven't taken him to the rest home yet.

- She doesn't do anything for a living. - I don't know what she works with.

My daughter is a genius.

I wouldn't say she's a genius.

She was a bit lost

because she ended the relationship.

Let's take him there.

Come on.

But already? Now?

It seemed she didn't want to take him.

What did she do with him for a week?

On the first day, we drank beers.

I know.

We're going home

and the poor guy fell asleep.

The next day, we went to pick up some boxes.

We've just moved into a chalet.

They left the house to her.

They give everything to her sister. The house, the prawns...

They only give us shortbread cookies.

Hello!

What are you doing here?

We couldn't use the bathroom.

I got distracted, and the old man locked himself in the bathroom.

I thought she was accompanied.

That's right, daughter. One goes out, another comes in.

What's that?

She wanted to take the door off.

I don't mind. I live alone anyway.

- But the door... - Look,

if she wants to take the door off...

Can you believe it?

Give me a knife.

I opened the door, and out came an 80-year-old man.

It was very embarrassing.

And we left.

But we said:

"It's her life."

If I were dating an old man...

I wasn't dating an old man.

It was almost like that.

And then, what can I say?

He kept me company.

Everything she did alone, the old man accompanied her.

What anguish! I don't know.

What anguish!

I'm in a dilemma.

What dilemma?

She didn't want to leave him.

Just imagine.

I'm taking him home.

How are you going to get him home?

He barely knows how to take care of himself.

Fortunately, the man gave a little smile.

I think he had reflux.

She had given him a cookie.

Maybe he'll be happier here.

Is that what you want?

We can't arrest people.

Freedom is important.

She was a pain in the ass the whole way back.

We want, we give. I give, I give.

That in relationships, we have to give space to others,

We can't put pressure on others,

if the other person doesn't want to be with you, be patient,

you have to accept it.

In the end, she burst into tears.

No! It's all shit!

Let's get the old man.

My daughter wasn't well.

Someone had to talk to her.

I said: "Let me do the talking."

I was feeling great, and I was going to solve her problems.

I also had to talk to Berta.

It was like a vision.

The night before had been difficult for me.

My mother had worn that beret...

I can't...

I can't.

How was I going to tell her?

It's just that I ate five butterscotches

and I'm feeling a bit...

We have to talk about these buttery things.

In the end, we don't talk about anything.

I was happy with my life...

I saw her coming and said:

"Jesus, woman, where did you get those clothes?"

She went into the house...

in her lingerie, and I asked her what had happened.

Where are the butterscotch?

She threw them away.

Luckily there were only two.

FEBRUARY

FRIDAY 4

Who is it at this hour?

I don't want anything. Leave me alone!

- It's Berta. - Why are you here?

I don't want to see anyone else. I've had enough.

I've had enough.

The intercom volume was very loud.

I'll see you another day. I'm not in the mood for visitors.

I'm going to stuff my face, take a chill pill and go to bed.

I'm hungover, it's coming down for me...

- Open the door. - Not today, Berta.

I had the key, but just that day...

Everyone has the key.

Your parents have already come in the morning.

Hello.

Did you wake up now?

I had just woken up and I didn't want to see anyone.

We stayed up until the morning.

I met her that night.

Which room aren't you using?

I don't know.

Are they bringing more things instead of taking away?

We can't fit anything in the chalet.

Not even here.

Look at this place!

It's a mess.

The old woman was screaming.

Let's fix this.

- Now? - Relax.

You know your mother. She took everything out of the cupboards.

I hadn't even had coffee.

Another puzzle.

Another puzzle.

More puzzles.

When I retired, they only gave me puzzles.

It took him two years to put one together.

Stop giving me puzzles!

Watch this.

Your sister made it for me for Mother's Day.

A dog.

A donkey. I don't know what it was.

A unicorn.

Can you open the door?

It's going to waste.

It could be garbage, but have mercy!

Who are they? Your housemates?

Are you an idiot?

Suddenly, she's turned into a scumbag.

You could take this photo.

Secret, you look like a serial killer with his wife.

Look at the mouth! They're my grandparents!

The photo was taken on their wedding day.

Imagine the rest of their lives.

What were photographers like back then?

They didn't talk to people: "Smile" or "X"?

Back then, if someone said X,

everyone would run away.

"Where? Where?"

I was still a bit drunk.

They've just left.

They have nothing to do.

I'm in a bad way.

Can you get me a pizza?

A large Hawaiian.

No pineapple.

I left after she mentioned about the unicorn.

MONDAY 7th

Sebastían started wearing a moustache and sunglasses.

To change his look.

He used to look good.

Full moon face.

A horror.

Yes, but I can't help anymore. Ask the administration.

Shame on you!

- Hey! Hey! - Okay, okay.

Please, where is this?

General files. Follow the corridor and turn right at the end.

- I'll leave this to you, shall I? - But...

Sometimes, I wonder what they think I am.

Where are the General Archives?

I've grown a moustache, put on sunglasses sunglasses and nobody asks me anything.

What people are like, aren't they?

THURSDAY 10TH

Look where she is.

Daughter, get out of there. Your father needs to use the bathroom.

Run, run.

We were in the bar on the first floor.

We ate a lot of tapas.

We didn't visit the neighborhood much.

You don't visit the neighborhood much? Holy shit!

Are you feeling sick?

I've been scared all week.

Dad?

Mother?

José Ramón gave me the key.

What was he thinking?

Where can we leave this?

An exercise bike that I don't use anymore.

I wanted to choke him.

- I told him to call first. - I did.

He didn't call on his cell phone.

- On the landline. - What landline?

The number on the fridge.

Do you have a landline?

Oi.

We are Matías and Consuelo.

We are not here at the moment.

We're away, but we'll be back soon.

The answering machine is still working.

MONDAY 14th

- I'm going to set rules. - What do you mean? It's their house.

I know, Berta, but I live here.

You're a real prick!

You can visit me once a month, for example.

We go to the beauty salon and the dentist's office in the neighborhood.

- The fishmonger, the lottery shop... - The podiatry clinic, the shoe shop.

I don't know if I can to do everything in one day.

I'll talk to them.

Calm down, calm down.

She doesn't have the tact to say things like that.

Let's do it the right way.

Let's have a family lunch and we'll talk.

Is that doing it the right way?

All right, all right.

We're having lunch at Berta's on Saturday.

Hell.

She said we have to talk about an important matter.

She's not going to cook, is she?

- I hadn't thought of that. - She's not a good cook.

Remember that paella she made?

What was that?

Pigeon rice.

It was a new recipe.

We should do what we know.

I like new things.

But other people...

It's been a stressful week.

Is it closed? What are the opening hours?

As usual. Until 2pm.

We had a shift with Sebastían.

Ma'am, I've been here since 7am. That's all I can say.

We're too early.

- Whoever arrived last won't get in. - It's always like that.

I love going to work now.

- Do you hand out forms? - What forms?

The forms.

No, only on the second floor.

I'm going to grow a mustache.

I look like Aznar.

- Can you make a copy of my document? - We don't make copies here.

Go to 17 Libertad Street.

Are you kidding?

- It's absurd. - Not at all.

This is the situation, I'm sorry.

- It's absurd. - Please stand back.

- What's up? - Hi.

It really works.

No more of that "it's quick" stuff.

You can't get in anymore.

Sorry, sir.

No complaints.

Did you burn the food?

Didn't I say something?

Yes.

I've never made rabada.

Why did you decide to make it today?

I'm glad we didn't get to taste it.

My sister's not answering.

Wow, I can't believe it.

Where are you going?

To her house.

Your parents should be here any minute.

Have a beer.

We'll be right back.

Drinking alone with them?

Then he called me. Drinking with his in-laws?

What a pain!

We can skip lunch.

Do you like shrimp?

I'm going to take you to a place that has great shrimp.

That neighbor is a pain in the ass.

He always takes us to filthy bars.

My mother-in-law...

Well, calm down. What a lively woman! Damn!

She went through several scares. First, her heart,

then a heart attack.

Finally, pneumonia.

- Oh my God! - But she didn't call.

She continued to smoke and have a few drinks from time to time.

At that moment, I saw the shit on the floor

and I saw that we were going to step on it.

The doctor said: "It's your life, you decide,

but at your age..."

I pushed her lightly, but I couldn't push hard.

This morning,

she had a cardiopulmonary arrest.

She stepped in shit.

Her husband is depressed and his two daughters are unemployed.

I saw it, yes.

He could have said:

"You stepped in shit, wipe your feet in the gutter."

She was telling me that her cousin had died.

What can I say? What a situation!

She walked into the bar with a shoe full of shit.

That was the bill for getting in and out.

What a smelly place!

He said it was the shrimp.

He always takes us to the worst places.

Let's go home.

Home?

No, no.

Why don't we go to a bar with tables outside?

We looked at each other and I realized that he didn't want to take them home.

We couldn't come home with all that shit.

I know a great place.

I thought: "He's going to take us to a dump."

I thought I'd take the long way

until the shit comes out.

Wait, we'd better go this way.

I remembered that there were some streets under construction with dirt everywhere.

- Do you want to go that way? - Yes.

They didn't know where they were going.

Unbelievable.

We start walking.

I found a scene of horror.

We drank them all.

I was sleeping like a stone.

Darling?

Honey?

Shit, what a fright!

I'll put a lock on the door.

I told you we had an appointment with our parents.

I'm out of town. You can come whenever you want.

No, please.

I said we had to talk about an important matter.

It's not that important.

Why do I do these things?

I'm doing it for you.

Can you bring some tobacco?

It made me want to choke her.

Rolling tobacco?

Go take a shower.

Berta, bring paper too.

And coffee.

And churros.

We walked a long way to have a beer.

I'm exhausted.

That's a lack of exercise.

I'm not buying your exercise bike.

We didn't know if the shit was still in the shoe.

I was hopeful.

We walked for a long time.

Then she crossed her legs.

It had turned into something...

Shall we go home?

I should have said: "Chelo, you stepped in shit."

But I didn't have the courage.

She drank coffee, smoked

and went back to sleep.

It was 2:30pm,

my mother must have been furious.

What are we doing here? Why did we come to the park?

It was the last hope. Maybe by stepping on the grass...

It's full of dog shit in here!

It was my chance.

Let's see if anyone stepped in the shit?

- I didn't. - Neither did I.

And you?

Let's go.

Let's visit the Church of St. Bartholomew?

Now?

This guy is an idiot.

You can climb the dome. There are lots of steps.

Shit will come out for sure.

Then Berta called.

Thank goodness! I could already see myself climbing the dome.

I thought: "What am I going to say to my parents?

What was that important subject?"

I have to say I'm pregnant

and then we'll sort it out?

That we're going to adopt a dog?

I have no idea.

- Where were you? - Walking.

What's that smell?

They sat down on the sofa and fainted.

I thought to myself: "Thank God!"

Let's let them sleep.

I also thought: "Thank God!"

Because the ass was really hard.

If only we had a dog...
