Imagine 88.1 FM,
the best thing in your life.
00:00:24.482 --> 00:00:27.277
ON MY OWN
00:00:28.862 --> 00:00:34.826
The time on Imagine Radio:
4:30 in the afternoon.
00:00:34.909 --> 00:00:38.163
He waited for me after school
and we went to the park.
00:00:38.872 --> 00:00:42.292
He slowly got closer to me
and I just went with it.
00:00:43.960 --> 00:00:48.006
He was touching my body all over
and all I could think was...
00:00:49.674 --> 00:00:53.219
“Good thing I’m wearing stockings
because it's a jungle down there!”
00:00:55.180 --> 00:00:58.600
-And I was so...
-What?
00:00:59.309 --> 00:01:00.268
So...
00:01:00.769 --> 00:01:02.103
horny.
00:01:04.314 --> 00:01:06.107
Hey, this kid, Matías...
00:01:06.191 --> 00:01:08.818
Is he the same one
you told me about the other day?
00:01:08.902 --> 00:01:11.696
No, this is a different one.
His name is Javier.
00:01:19.954 --> 00:01:22.665
So, is that why you came to wax?
Just in case...
00:01:22.749 --> 00:01:23.875
Don't be nosy.
00:01:24.709 --> 00:01:26.169
No one is talking to you, Nelly.
00:01:27.879 --> 00:01:29.506
Aren't you going to
tell me anything?
00:01:29.881 --> 00:01:32.342
Me? No.
All right, you're all set.
00:01:33.843 --> 00:01:35.595
Nice! I feel so soft now.
00:01:38.598 --> 00:01:40.266
You can get dressed.
I'm going to the bathroom...
00:01:42.393 --> 00:01:43.686
-Are you okay?
-Yes.
00:01:52.987 --> 00:01:54.364
Did you turn the heater on?
00:01:54.823 --> 00:01:56.199
No. Why?
00:01:58.368 --> 00:01:59.661
It's getting serious, huh.
00:02:02.789 --> 00:02:04.958
-What's going on?
-She's going through menopause.
00:02:05.041 --> 00:02:06.000
She's getting hot flashes.
00:02:06.709 --> 00:02:08.586
Oh, you started your menopause?
00:02:08.837 --> 00:02:09.963
It seems so.
00:02:12.590 --> 00:02:14.300
So you won’t get your period anymore.
00:02:15.802 --> 00:02:17.720
That's great.
Now you won't get pregnant.
00:02:18.680 --> 00:02:19.806
Pregnant.
00:02:20.515 --> 00:02:23.893
No, she won't get pregnant.
She'll just get all sweaty.
00:02:24.894 --> 00:02:27.564
Stop pestering me, Nelly.
You're all jokes today.
00:02:27.647 --> 00:02:29.440
Okay, I'm leaving.
00:02:30.316 --> 00:02:31.442
Oh. All right.
00:02:32.569 --> 00:02:34.404
-Let me get your receipt.
-No, don't worry about it.
00:02:34.654 --> 00:02:35.530
Thank you.
00:02:35.738 --> 00:02:37.323
-See you, take care.
-All right.
00:02:37.407 --> 00:02:39.284
-Bye, Nelly.
-Bye.
00:02:39.367 --> 00:02:41.286
Don't fall for any funny business!
00:02:41.870 --> 00:02:43.788
-Yes, be careful.
-Yeah.
00:02:50.211 --> 00:02:51.504
Coffee! Coffee!
00:02:51.588 --> 00:02:53.423
Get out of here! Go away!
00:02:54.090 --> 00:02:55.049
Get out of here.
00:02:55.133 --> 00:02:57.927
...Gemini will regain confidence
in old projects...
00:02:58.011 --> 00:03:00.722
-You're mean to him, Nelly.
-Well, he's an idiot.
00:03:00.805 --> 00:03:04.601
...weeks of beating around the bush
and not facing the one you love.
00:03:04.684 --> 00:03:07.437
Today is the day to open your heart.
00:03:07.770 --> 00:03:10.815
-Cancer, you must leave your fears...
-Hey, it's your sign!
00:03:10.899 --> 00:03:14.319
...and insecurities behind
in order to fulfill your biggest desires.
00:03:14.402 --> 00:03:17.906
Mercury is in retrograde,
so there may be surprises.
00:03:17.989 --> 00:03:20.658
What does Mercury in retrograde mean?
I've never understood.
00:03:20.742 --> 00:03:22.285
I don't understand either.
00:03:23.077 --> 00:03:25.204
-Looks like it's going to rain later.
-It looks like it.
00:03:25.288 --> 00:03:26.247
Yeah.
00:03:27.206 --> 00:03:30.585
-Want some coffee? It's on the house.
-No, no. Thank you.
00:03:38.009 --> 00:03:41.179
You know, a friend told me
about a place around here
00:03:41.262 --> 00:03:43.640
that sells really great hot wine.
00:03:43.723 --> 00:03:45.391
-Oh yeah? That's nice.
-Yeah.
00:03:45.475 --> 00:03:46.601
Yeah, it's great.
00:03:49.187 --> 00:03:50.563
Would you like to go?
00:03:51.105 --> 00:03:53.024
-Where?
-To have some hot wine.
00:03:53.691 --> 00:03:56.486
Oh, no, it upsets my--
right here.
00:03:56.569 --> 00:03:58.321
No, thanks. Thank you.
00:04:01.199 --> 00:04:02.909
-Is business good?
-Yes.
00:04:04.202 --> 00:04:06.204
-That's good.
-Mario, come on.
00:04:06.579 --> 00:04:08.915
Okay, coming! Excuse me.
00:04:08.998 --> 00:04:10.166
-Of course, go ahead.
-Yeah.
00:04:15.088 --> 00:04:16.089
Coming, coming!
00:04:33.523 --> 00:04:36.901
UNISEX BEAUTY SALON
WAXING - PODIATRY
00:04:38.611 --> 00:04:39.696
He dropped this.
00:05:14.063 --> 00:05:16.399
He went to an assembly at my school.
00:05:16.482 --> 00:05:19.944
He said he was always curious
to see the inside.
00:05:20.361 --> 00:05:22.238
We could have done it,
but I didn't want to.
00:05:22.322 --> 00:05:24.657
It was uncomfortable. It was cold.
00:05:24.741 --> 00:05:27.243
My butt hurt from leaning there.
It was just weird.
00:05:27.326 --> 00:05:28.453
I didn't want to do it.
00:05:30.496 --> 00:05:31.330
And now?
00:05:32.206 --> 00:05:33.541
Do you...
00:05:34.500 --> 00:05:36.252
want it to happen?
00:05:37.211 --> 00:05:38.212
Are you in love?
00:05:39.464 --> 00:05:40.298
I don't know.
00:05:40.757 --> 00:05:42.675
What do you mean "I don't know"?
One always knows.
00:05:44.052 --> 00:05:46.304
I don't know.
How does one know?
00:05:46.387 --> 00:05:48.097
You just know.
00:05:48.181 --> 00:05:49.849
But how? Explain it to me.
00:05:51.726 --> 00:05:55.188
It's like there's, I don't know...
00:05:55.855 --> 00:05:58.775
a thread that ties you
to the other person.
00:05:59.525 --> 00:06:00.485
A thread?
00:06:02.695 --> 00:06:06.324
Yeah. For example when it
happened to me...
00:06:07.283 --> 00:06:09.118
I'd wake up and think about him,
00:06:09.202 --> 00:06:12.872
I'd shower and think about him,
I'd eat and think about him.
00:06:13.748 --> 00:06:17.251
And when I went to bed at night,
who would I think about?
00:06:17.460 --> 00:06:19.378
-Him.
-Yup, that's what it's like.
00:06:21.589 --> 00:06:22.840
Who do you think about now?
00:06:23.758 --> 00:06:26.552
-I don't think about anyone.
-Oh, come on. No one?
00:06:26.636 --> 00:06:27.887
No, not anymore.
00:06:27.970 --> 00:06:29.847
Come on, there's always someone.
00:06:30.807 --> 00:06:33.392
Your lady hole is closing, Margarita.
00:06:33.684 --> 00:06:36.813
Really, Nelly, that’s totally out of line.
Enough, already.
00:06:38.648 --> 00:06:39.816
What a pest.
00:06:44.028 --> 00:06:45.363
So, what are you waxing today?
00:06:45.696 --> 00:06:47.949
-My bikini line.
-Okay, let's do it.
00:06:49.867 --> 00:06:51.327
Let me know if it's too hot.
00:06:52.453 --> 00:06:53.496
-It's fine.
-It's fine?
00:07:12.140 --> 00:07:14.267
-A little more or is that enough?
-Sure.
00:07:17.353 --> 00:07:18.354
All right.
00:07:39.584 --> 00:07:44.630
Poor fool, naïve charlatan...
00:07:45.965 --> 00:07:48.843
-...I was a pigeon...
-Did you fall in love with the pigeons?
00:07:52.889 --> 00:07:57.643
My friend,
you should see what love is like...
00:07:58.436 --> 00:08:00.730
Go home already. Bye.
00:08:01.981 --> 00:08:02.857
Bye!
00:08:05.776 --> 00:08:10.281
Sparrow hawk or pigeon...
00:08:37.558 --> 00:08:41.229
The temperature on Imagine Radio...
00:08:46.400 --> 00:08:49.612
Gemini, the lunar transit promotes
successful actions
00:08:49.695 --> 00:08:51.697
in the field of business.
00:08:52.281 --> 00:08:56.535
Cancer, don't think
you can hide things from others.
00:08:56.535 --> 00:09:00.081
Listen, crab,
say what you feel, especially today.
00:09:00.790 --> 00:09:03.084
The full moon will give you that strength.
00:09:16.264 --> 00:09:20.810
It felt like something burning inside me,
but the pain felt good.
00:09:21.727 --> 00:09:23.604
I thought it would hurt more...
00:09:23.896 --> 00:09:25.231
or that I'd bleed more.
00:09:26.691 --> 00:09:31.070
Later, in the afternoon,
I could still feel him inside me.
00:09:33.990 --> 00:09:37.618
When I think about it, I get tingly.
Javier is so hot.
00:10:09.567 --> 00:10:11.485
-Are you dating now?
-No.
00:10:11.569 --> 00:10:13.571
No? You're wild.
00:10:16.157 --> 00:10:17.408
When is it your turn, Margarita?
00:10:18.326 --> 00:10:19.785
-When, what?
-When?
00:10:20.202 --> 00:10:23.664
Oh, no, I'm on my own.
That's not for me.
00:10:24.623 --> 00:10:27.710
Plus, I don't know. I feel...
00:10:28.586 --> 00:10:29.920
I don't feel well.
00:10:30.588 --> 00:10:33.090
I don't know. I feel sweaty.
00:10:34.133 --> 00:10:35.092
Let's see.
00:10:39.096 --> 00:10:39.930
Wait.
00:10:41.766 --> 00:10:42.892
Smell this.
00:10:44.644 --> 00:10:45.478
Come here.
00:10:46.062 --> 00:10:46.896
What?
00:10:47.146 --> 00:10:48.773
-I want to spray some on you.
-No, no.
00:10:48.856 --> 00:10:50.316
-Come on, it's nice!
-No, no.
00:10:50.816 --> 00:10:52.610
-Go on.
-Fine, let me smell it.
00:10:53.736 --> 00:10:54.904
-All right.
-Let's see.
00:10:56.947 --> 00:10:58.366
Nelly, come check it out!
00:10:58.908 --> 00:11:02.411
-I can't right now, I'm busy.
-Come on, Nelly.
00:11:04.330 --> 00:11:05.373
Wait just a moment.
00:11:09.460 --> 00:11:10.378
Smell this.
00:11:11.128 --> 00:11:11.962
Let's see.
00:11:13.005 --> 00:11:14.632
Oh, it smells so good.
Let's see.
00:11:17.051 --> 00:11:18.928
-You like it?
-Coconut and vanilla.
00:11:19.261 --> 00:11:20.388
Delicious.
00:11:32.858 --> 00:11:34.402
-All right.
-It's pretty.
00:11:37.071 --> 00:11:42.284
How I wish to be your love
To be able to vibrate
00:11:42.368 --> 00:11:46.288
With every inch of your body
00:11:47.790 --> 00:11:52.753
How I wish to see the light
Of the morning and, there, beside me
00:11:52.837 --> 00:11:56.632
Feel the breath from your mouth
00:11:58.384 --> 00:12:03.097
How I wish to be the one
That is sharing your love
00:12:03.556 --> 00:12:05.599
And is drinking that anisette
00:12:06.225 --> 00:12:11.063
Made from your wonders
How I wish to be your love...
00:12:11.772 --> 00:12:13.649
-You found it.
-Yes.
00:12:17.903 --> 00:12:19.780
When are we having that hot wine?
00:12:21.198 --> 00:12:22.700
Really?
00:12:23.492 --> 00:12:26.745
-Uh, take a seat.
-Okay. Just for a bit.
00:12:26.829 --> 00:12:30.124
...if I'm far from you, I suffer
00:12:30.291 --> 00:12:36.213
Because even if it's only your voice
Your figure or your walk
00:12:36.213 --> 00:12:40.759
It's enough to sustain me
00:12:40.843 --> 00:12:46.974
How I would like to be a god
To have you beside me
00:12:47.057 --> 00:12:51.896
And so my joy doesn't die
00:12:51.979 --> 00:12:57.651
How I wish I could comprehend
that I've lost you forever
00:12:57.735 --> 00:13:02.615
And now you're just a dream...
