“«¿Recuerdas aquella película de cuando éramos pequeñas? —empiezo—. Se titulaba La gran evasión. La vimos con papá al menos siete u ocho veces. Iba de unos aviadores americanos reclusos en un campo de prisioneros de la Alemania nazi. Conseguían excavar un túnel larguísimo que atravesaba todo el recinto del campo. Pero la noche de la evasión, cuando salían del túnel, se percataban de que les quedaban seis metros para llegar al bosque. ¡Habían errado en los cálculos seis metros! Luego no tenían más remedio que jugarse la vida recorriendo esa distancia expuestos a la mirada de los guardias. ¿Te acuerdas?». «No», suelta con indiferencia.
«No importa. Lo que quería decir es que estar con una mujer es como sacar la cabeza al exterior y descubrir que de verdad has excavado esos seis metros que quedaban».”

“Do you remember that movie we saw when we were little?” I begin. “The Great Escape—we watched it with Dad at least seven or eight times. It was about these American pilots in a German POW camp who dig this long, long tunnel that runs the length of the compound. But, on the night of the escape, when they reach the end of the tunnel, they realize they’re six meters short of the forest. Their calculations had been off by six meters! They’ve got no choice but to risk their necks and make a run for it, in plain view of the guards. Do you remember?” “No,” she says indifferently.
“Whatever. What I’m trying to say is: Being with a woman is like sticking your head out of the tunnel and discovering that you’ve actually dug through those last few meters.”
