Las historietas de Juan

The Spaniards who read me mainly know what the figure of a councilor in a town hall is. Well, this story is about one of them who has a little slip in a celebration with friends.
I hope you like this first part and remember that I write in Spanish even though I later translate it into English.

-------------------------------------------------- ----------------------
At the moment we are almost reaching the first blows of the end of the summer, despite the fact that it was not hot enough. However, a heat wave (the first in the whole summer in my country) has brought movement, as a result of this, the councilman along with his wife are going to the country with other couples for the day.

The course of the day continues well with good food on the table and beer, wine and soft drinks to alleviate the suffocating heat. There is also a swimming pool, where the men jump in after eating to take a bath and splash around for their wives, who watch them sitting from the porch.
During the afternoon, beer is not lacking and we can already notice some symptoms of drunkenness in some men, among them the protagonist of our story.
With the entry of the night the councilor is quite affected and his face is red, due to the beer drunkenness that he has on him. His clothing is no longer that of a man of his character, because he has an open shirt with two lower buttons fastened and his shirt is rolled up. His fat belly (which he tries to hide in his day to day) falls on top of his swimsuit and he doesn't care because together with other men he is very comfortable. His wife looks at him annoyed and has attracted his attention with the drink, because she has to take the car to go home.
She looks like the night is going to be long for him and some of the men because after dinner, they brought out a bottle of gin to drink. His wife, leaving him as impossible, decides to spend the night there while she returns home to rest along with other couples, telling him that she should be very careful.

The night between men is fun, the cubatas come and go and the gin starts to go down. Some drink it sitting in the chair with lemon soda or tonic, others drink swish directly from a dry stick (from the bottle, pure alcohol in their throat). Also the clothes are beginning to be left over, some are in swimsuits and without a shirt, others with a polo shirt and underpants, a night between men.
With the hours, things become clearer, they know that their marriages may be in danger so they decide to eat to alleviate the drunkenness and incidentally return to the beers leaving the gin for another occasion. As a result of this, they began with the vacillating type: "you are fat", "you have a good belly", "you have put on a few kilos" and so on.
Suddenly, the owner and host, beer bottle in hand, decides to fight for a while to remember old times from his time in the army. The rules were clear:

- No serious blows
- For fun
- Barefoot and shirtless
- The winner receives € 20 and the worst is thrown into the pool

Everything dilutes well, our councilor fights quite well and easily defeats his first rivals. He, a cattle rancher by profession, has strength in his arms which makes him a great factor.
It should be noted that our protagonist is a medium-sized man with gray hair, he does not have hairy chest and legs. His next rival has some chest hair and his legs are hairy.

In the fight against the host, both begin to spin like dogs in heat. Every now and then, they take small sips of beer, igniting their bodies even more. The circle grows narrower, the two make involuntary noises ... grunts, snorts, and their foreheads meet. They are breathing each other's breath, with their eyes closed.

Neither of them was prepared to appear weak in front of a group of friends.
They raised their fists and advanced. The host launched the first attack, but our councilor managed to dodge it.
Both get entangled in grips that predicted a fairly even fight of forces and that's how it was, neither of them managed to win and the others decided to end the fight in a draw. To prevent them from getting tired, the other men took cold beer from the freezer and hydrated the fighters who were very contained. After finishing, they decided to give the € 20 to the councilor and the host, for putting on a good show. Then one of the other men ended up in the pool.

But what they did not realize is that after taking several photos for their WhatsApp group, some about the fight between the councilor and the host were exposed on a social network without the men noticing ... the next day, our protagonist woke up hungover and with several missed calls from his wife. When he managed to see the calico that had been formed, the photo was being what they will say of the town and it was too late. However, not everything was bad ...

Final (for now)
