Capitán

Me casé con el mismo hombre siete veces. El hombre también se divorció de mí siete veces por la misma mujer, solo para poder pasar las vacaciones como un hombre soltero con su primer amor, y también para que su primer amor no fuera afectada por los rumores. La primera vez que nos divorciamos, me corté la muñeca para intentar retenerlo, y me llevaron al hospital en una ambulancia, pero no vino a verme ni una sola vez. La segunda vez que nos divorciamos, me rebajé, fui a su empresa para postularme como su asistente, solo para poder verlo un poco más. La sexta vez que nos divorciamos, simplemente empacé mis cosas para mudarme de la casa que compartíamos. Mi histeria, mis múltiples concesiones, mi aceptación indiferente, solo trajeron como resultado el casamiento y el divorcio una y otra vez. Hasta que esta vez, después de recibir la noticia de que su primer amor regresaría al país, le entregué de forma proactiva el acuerdo de divorcio. Él, como siempre, acordó conmigo la fecha para nuestra reconciliación, pero no sabía que, esta vez, me iría para siempre.

Tras la quiebra de mi familia, mi prometido, Javier Martínez, rompió el compromiso sin titubear y eligió a Lucía Giménez. Fue Pablo Romero quien saldó mis deudas, se hizo cargo del funeral de mi padre y me sacó del incendio en el que se había convertido mi vida. Durante los siguientes tres años, se quedó a mi lado. Justo cuando creí haber encontrado la redención, en la víspera de nuestra boda lo escuché conversar con su mejor amigo: —¿De verdad piensas casarte con Daniela? ¿No te da miedo que algún día se entere de que la muerte de su padre y la ruina de su familia fueron cosa tuya? —Lucía ya se casó con Javier. Me caso con Daniela y ya. Y si algún día lo descubre, ¿ qué? Yo pagué sus deudas, yo enterré a su padre. Con eso ya cumplí con ella. Ahí entendí que Pablo también me había mentido. De principio a fin, la única que se lo había creído todo había sido yo.

Sou casada com Renato Vieira há dez anos. Conheci todas as namoradas que ele teve desde o nosso casamento. Sempre que ele se cansava e queria trocar de companhia, eu virava a desculpa perfeita para ele terminar com cada uma delas. — Se você se casar comigo, vai acabar ficando como ela. No fim, a relação fica tão familiar que não sobra nem um pingo de novidade. No nosso aniversário de casamento, eu enxugava as lágrimas da última garota que ele tinha acabado de abandonar, enquanto ele assistia a um filme com a nova namorada. Depois de gastar uma caixa inteira de lenços, vi em seus olhos a imagem de quem eu já tinha sido um dia. Então, pedi o divórcio a Renato. Ele, pela primeira vez, pareceu confuso: — Não quer esperar mais um pouco? Quem sabe eu não mude e volte a ser o mesmo? Sorri de leve, sem responder, e comprei uma passagem para o outro lado do oceano. Já que não vou esperar pelo seu arrependimento, sigo eu primeiro.
