several times...

...though you haven't

talked about her.

Well...

...maybe one day

I'll tell you that story.

-Wait.

-It's nothing.

I can't let her cry.

There's all kinds

for everyone.

Yeah, I always invite her

though I know she'll say no.

She's like a city girl.

She doesn't like going

from town to town like me.

Patricia is...

...a real

Zacatecas girl...

...and the kids are

rubbing off on her.

They're all fancy.

-How old is your eldest?

-Eleven.

The youngest is eight.

When we go back...

...we can stop by Jerez and

get the pictures developed.

What are they now?

Agreat trip I made

through Oaxaca.

We were at the beach

and we took a boat.

Really?

Of course not, Isabel.

I don't have time

to go to the beach.

Since I've been seeing you,

I hardly go to work...

...how can I go on holiday?

They're from that boring trip

I took with my family...

...to the Chique Dam.

May I see them

when they're developed?

What's wrong?

I don't know.

I get feverish sometimes

and I sweat...

I told you I was delicate.

Who'd think I was menopausal

at my age?

Can I get you anything?

No, no, no.

It'll pass quickly.

Let's go this way.

-What's going on?

-Nothing.

Why didn't you want

to go right?

I don't like crossroads.

What?

-Strange things happen.

-Like what?

I don't know.

Things change.

They scare me.

Oh, Eugenio.

I can never tell if

you're being serious or not.

Eugenio.

-Are you there?

-Yeah.

-What are you doing?

-Nothing.

Just looking at you.

How rude!

-Is the car there?

-Yeah.

The woman next to it

is Patricia.

Her hair looks pretty.

Can you see anything?

Alittle.

The next ones are the kids

playing with a dog...

...their Aunt Margarita

gave them...

...in the backyard.

We buried Katie

in the rosebush.

-The roses she took?

-Yeah.

I hope they survive

the freeze.

What's the other one?

It my little boy's birthday.

You know...

...a lot of food,

relatives, pinatas...

I don't really like that.

Children look older every day

and adults get more wrinkles.

-Do you want some coffee?

-Sure.

-Do you want a thermos?

-Yes, please.

So you're leaving?

I'll miss you.

Are you sure

about leaving?

You have a fever.

No, I don't have

a fever.

You think?

Hands off.

I have to take you

on the road with me.

No.

Just promise one day...

...you'll bring the projector

so I can see them.

All right.

I promise, Isabel.

I can't imagine how

it looks up close.

Maybe I'll feel sad

to see myself younger.

What's wrong?

Are you okay?

Yes, I'm fine.

I'm fine.

I'm going now.

It's okay.

You're okay.

Don't worry.

Do you feel okay?

Yes, I'm fine.

Thank you.

You're bleeding.

Can you bring me water?
