Catita:
[answering the phone with Mr. Fernando by her side]
Alo! Pizzafrola's Residence, who is this?... What???!!! Mrs. Amalia!!!
Amalia Verdeales:
[on the phone, thinking his husband has died while travelling to Brazil]
Don't be scared, Catita! It's me.
Catita:
[hesitating and stuttering, almost unable to speak]
Mrs. Amalia!!! N... no... How are you Mrs. Amalia...?
Fernando Verdeales:
[whispering, to Catita]
Don't tell her I'm here!!
Catita:
[back on the phone]
He tells me not to tell you...
Fernando Verdeales:
Shut up! Talk to her, I want to listen! And don't tell her I'm alive!!
Catita:
[very nervous, she hands the extension line to Mr. Fernando and talks to the phone]
Oh... yes... What a surprise!!! Where are you staying, ma'am?
Amalia Verdeales:
I'm at the Grand Palace Hotel, Catita. I just arrived. And since today is wednesday I figured you'd be at home, taking care of things.
Catita:
Why haven't you came home directly? I'm so anxious to gossip with you!
Amalia Verdeales:
Well, Mr. Fernando... is dead now, and it would be terrible for me going back to the house where we l saw him for the last time.
Catita:
[on the phone, hesitating]
Mrs. Amalia... But... you see, it turns out... Mr. Fernando is not...
Fernando Verdeales:
[interrupting her and blocking the phone]
Don't tell her I'm still alive!!
Catita:
But she's suffering like a donkey!!
Fernando Verdeales:
Suffering is good for people!!
Catita:
One can see nobody has ever stepped on your bunions in a bus full of people!!!
