-No, gracias -dijo el camarero, y salió. Le disgustaban los bares y las bodegas. Un café limpio, bien iluminado, era algo muy distinto. Ahora, sin pensar más, volvería a su cuarto. Yacería en la cama y, finalmente, con la luz del día, se dormiría. Después de todo, se dijo, probablemente sólo sea insomnio. Muchos deben sufrir de lo mismo.
“No, thank you,” said the waiter and went out. He disliked bars and bodegas. A clean, well-lighted cafe was a very differ- ent thing. Now, without thinking further, he would go home to his room. He would lie in the bed and finally, with daylight, he would go to sleep. After all, he said to himself, it is probably only insomnia. Many must have it.
