It was a thick crowd, but Escolástica Cisneros thought she noticed that the two friends were walking in the centre of it without any difficulty, inside an empty circle, because everyone knew that Santiago Nasar was about to die and they didn't dare touch him.
Baina Escolastica Cisneros-ek nabaritu uste izan zuen bi adiskideak inolako oztoporik gabe zihoazela zentrotik aurrera, zirkulu huts baten barrenean, jendeak bazekien-eta Santiago Nasar-ek hil behar zuela, eta inork ez zuen hura ukitzeko ausardiarik.
