Spanish-English Parallel Text, La sorpresa, Capítulo 4

El aperitivo

  1. A veces, Javier, después del trabajo, va al bar para tomar una copa con sus amigos. El bar está a cinco minutos de la oficina. Pilar corre al bar y espera encontrarse con su novio.
  2. El bar es grande y elegante. Hay mucha gente. Todos hablan y parecen muy relajados. Pilar observa a los clientes del bar. Fuera hay personas mayores sentadas en las mesas de la terraza tomando café y leyendo el periódico. En el interior hay algunos grupos de jóvenes que hablan, beben cerveza y comen patatas fritas. En uno de los grupos están algunos amigos de Javier.
  3. “¡Qué suerte!” Piensa Pilar. “Seguro que Javier estará aquí con ellos.”
  4. Pero a Pilar le espera una sorpresa desagradable.

The Aperitif

  1. Sometimes, after work, Javier goes to a bar with his friends for a drink. The bar is five minutes’ walk from the office. Pilar runs to the bar, hoping to find her boyfriend.
  2. The bar is big and stylish. There are lots of people. Everybody is chatting and looking very relaxed. Pilar looks around at the bar’s clientele.

Among them are some of Javier’s friends.
