Orión (Ohreeon)

El día amaneció con contracciones, el mismo día en que cogí un avión para venir a Londres cinco años atrás. Me dije "no, eso va a ser demasiada coincidencia"

I thought it was going to be another annoying day of fake contractions, because I figured like his father he was taking every opportunity to sleep confortably for as long as possible.

El embarazo había ido sobre ruedas, ningún susto, ningún molesto capricho que atender a altas horas de la madrugada... vaya que me pensaba yo que eso de dar a luz era como ir a tomar un helado a la plaza del pueblo en una noche de verano, con brisita marina.

When we arrived at the hospital I thought I was at the end of my pain threshold but it was just the beginning. Twenty two hours that began as smooth tickley pains and ended as the gates of hell before the sweet relief of Mr Epidural

Hubo un momento que ya la cosa se puso en plan película gore, latex, tenazas, tijeras mastodónticas y sangre, mucha sangre. Vamos, que lo del helado con brisa marina como que no.

All my pain was gone for the moment and I watched Alvaro dancing around the theatre and making sure that everything was in order. They carried a baby to a table and I waited an eternity to hear the words "it´s a boy"

(Sólo espero treinta segundos, o veintinueve)
