Wednesday threatens to leave you: this doesn’t work. I need some time to think about it. And on Monday he asks you to marry him, children, that you sign a twenty-year mortgage together and that his in-laws come to live with you. This has been the coming and going of Pedro Sánchez of his supposed inner journey. Excursion to which he only took one set, that of Félix Tezanos’s CIS. He had to leave the cave with a brush.
From perhaps it is not worth continuing to propose yourself as a candidate right now in 2027 and beyond, lest the “lame duck” thesis of Lola García and Enric Juliana come to fruition.
