El silencio de la amistad
︎
(Noche. Biblioteca del campus. Dos personas sentadas en una mesa pequeña en una esquina.)
MUJER: Sabes que sacas un poco la lengua cuando te concentras.
HOMBRE: No, eso no es cierto.
MUJER: Solo un poco. Como si estuvieras negociando con la página.
HOMBRE: Eso es específico.
MUJER: Me fijo en los patrones. También te reclinas mucho en la silla cuando te desconectas.
HOMBRE: Lo haces sonar como si fuera predecible.
MUJER: No. Es que pasamos mucho tiempo juntos, te conozco.
(Ella se obliga a mirar hacia otro lado, buscando apuntes en su mochila. Se sonroja. Ambos permanecen en silencio durante unos minutos.)
HOMBRE: Bueno… somos amigos, eso suele pasar.
MUJER: Sí… somos amigos. Bueno, ya es tarde, probablemente debería irme a dormir.
