I POUR SOME WATER IN AN EMPTY MARMALADE JAR





We go out home when it's still raining. Walking through the forest, we arrive to a Swedish neighbourhood and I feel like going back in time: red-blue-yellow wooden houses are surrounding us again, flowers everywhere and blond children playing in the streets, in their yards, in their trampolines, in their treehouses. I wish we could have a treehouse one day. I'm picking flowers from the gardens. A little girl says "Hej då" to us when we pass next to her and I feel like going back in time again: two years ago you and me were walking in a Swedish neighbourhood. 
We are back home. I pour some water in an empty marmalade jar. 
Salimos de casa mientras todavía llueve. Atravesando el bosque, llegamos a un vecindario sueco y siento que viajo al pasado: casas de madera rojas-azules-amarillas nos rodean de nuevo, todo está lleno de flores y niños rubios juegan en las calles, en sus jardines, en sus camas elásticas, en sus casas del árbol. Ojalá algún día tengamos una casita en un árbol. Cojo flores de los jardines. Una niña nos dice "Hej då" cuando pasamos por su lado y siento que viajo al pasado de nuevo: dos años atrás tú y yo caminábamos por un vecindario sueco.
Volvemos a casa. Vierto un poco de agua en un tarro de mermelada vacío.
