Unmask me if you dare! [Spa][Eng] My ARC: Feb 14 2022

¡Desenmascárenme si se atreven!

Computadora apagada, zapatos puestos, abrigo en mano y la DAAP en el teléfono para contar los pasos, llevo mi mano al bolsillo del blue jean ya por costumbre para sentir que, como paliativo a mi mala memoria y por evitar sorpresas, está la mascarilla (tapa boca) reservada a cada pantalón en su sitio, me transmite tranquilidad, bebo un vaso de agua para salir bien hidratada al paseo y cuando llego a la puerta del edificio antes de salir a la calle, me pongo la mascarilla, como cada vez que salgo desde que comenzó toda esta historia de la pandemia mundial y el cambio drástico de nos trajo consigo, conecto los audífonos y comienzo a reproducir una lista de música nada aleatoria para recluirme en el privado mundo de mis reflexiones.

Pasa lo de siempre, nada más salir me topo con alguna persona que está fuera sin usar su mascarilla y empiezo a debatir en mi mente si tomarme la atribución de detenerme, pausar la música y hacerle alguna señal o un comentario sobre la responsabilidad que tiene para consigo y los demás o si por lo contrario sigo sin más y me preocupo solo de mis asuntos, de ahí por supuesto surgen diversas opciones de como podría continuar la conversación si me decido por hacer lo primero o del debate moral que podría mantener conmigo misma si hago lo segundo, pero antes de decidirme pasa otra vez, observo a alguien más sin cubrirse el rostro, sospechoso. Me detengo, giro a mi alrededor y un mix de caras, algunas descubiertas y otras que no lo están me rodean, continúo detenida, sin moverme un par de minutos más, analizando la situación; me llevo la mano derecha al rostro y si, claro que tengo la mía puesta, pero ¿por qué parte del resto no?, esto es fácil de desvelar, amigo internet al rescate, dime qué está pasando.
En el buscador escribo pocas palabras clave y en unos segundos una ola de noticias indicando que en efecto, hace ya tres días no es obligatorio el uso de este implemento en los exteriores me extraña. Sorpresa, incredulidad, desacuerdo. No sé que tanto me gusta, por ahora me dejo la mía puesta, esto hay que estudiarlo y es a lo que me dedico durante el resto del paseo, intento observar lo mejor posible la conducta de los "desenmascarados" sin llegar a ser molesta, ¿Estoy a salvo? o puede que lo que pase es que ya esté extremadamente condicionada a la pandemia. Dejo de observar a la gente, hay de todo, incluyendo los que por precaución como yo no se quitan su mascarilla, pero entre los que no la llevan hay casos preocupantes, esa tos tan cerca, ese suspiro tan próximo, me he vuelto una maniática.

Hay que hacer una prueba, me retiro la pieza en cuestión, la dejo colgando de la oreja izquierda y me detengo un momento, alejada de cualquiera, respiro, siento el frio viento acariciar mi rostro y me estremezco, suficiente, he descubierto una ventaja de la mascarilla en invierno que no había reconocido antes por no ser primordial, pero además de la protección del virus pues lo de las bajas temperaturas también cuenta!
Al final es lo que todos queríamos, dejar de usar ese molesto accesorio, pero si luego hay que ponérselo dentro de cualquier local significa que al menos la rutina del bolsillo debe continuar, así que haremos un cambio suave.
Esto me hizo pensar también en lo desconectada que he estado estos días, algo tan importante en la ciudad donde vivo y no me había enterado, si no fuera por el paseo de hoy estaría en casa leyendo algún libro sin enterarme de nada hasta que tuviese la necesidad de salir a buscar algo en particular, porque ya eso de poner las noticias es algo que hace mucho perdí la costumbre de hacer, no me gusta de alimentar la desesperación.

En cualquier caso, pienso seguir utilizando la protección, estas medidas se han escuchado antes y no sé que tan definitiva sea, yo me he terminado acostumbrando a llevarla y apreciadno el anonimato que nos brinda. No es que lo prefiera, por supuesto que no, digamos que es cierto recelo que espero no dure mucho, pero para ellos las cosas tendrán que empezar a marchar bien y ese detalle es el que no veo tan claro.

Computer off, shoes on, coat in hand, and the DAAP on the phone to count the steps, I take my hand to the pocket of my blue jean out of habit to feel that, as a palliative to my bad memory and to avoid surprises, there is the mask reserved for each pair of pants in its place, it gives me peace of mind, I drink a glass of water to leave well hydrated for the walk and when I get to the door of the building before going out to the street, I put on the mask, as every time I go out since this whole story of the global pandemic and the drastic change it brought us, I connect the headphones and start to play a list of not random music to seclude myself in the private world of my thoughts.

The usual thing happens, as soon as I go out I run into someone who is outside without wearing his mask and I start to debate in my mind whether to stop, pause the music and give him a sign or a comment about the responsibility he has towards himself and others, or if on the contrary, I continue without further ado and just mind my own business, of course, various options arise as to how I might continue the conversation if I decide to do the former or the moral debate I might have with myself if I do the latter, but before I decide it happens again, I notice someone else without covering his face, suspicious. I stop, turn around, and a mix of faces, some uncovered and others not, surround me, I continue stopped, without moving a couple of minutes more, analyzing the situation; I take my right hand to my face, and yes, of course, I have mine on, but why don't the rest, this is easy to unveil, friend internet to the rescue, tell me what is going on.
In the search engine, I type a few keywords and in a few seconds a wave of news indicating that in fact, for three days now, the use of this implement is not mandatory in the outdoors, I am surprised. Surprise, disbelief, disagreement. I don't know how much I like it, for now I leave mine on, this has to be studied and that's what I do for the rest of the walk, I try to observe as best as possible the behavior of the "unmasked" without becoming annoying, am I safe? or maybe what happens is that I am already extremely conditioned to the pandemic. I stop observing the people, there are all kinds, including those who as a precaution like me do not remove their masks, but among those who do not wear them there are worrying cases, that cough so close, that sigh so close, I have become a maniac.

It is necessary to make a test, I remove the piece in question, I leave it hanging from my left ear and I stop for a moment, away from anyone, I breathe, I feel the cold wind caress my face and I shiver, enough, I have discovered an advantage of the mask in winter that I had not recognized before for not being primordial, but besides the protection of the virus because the low temperatures also counts!
In the end, it's what we all wanted, to stop using that annoying accessory, but if you then have to put it on inside any premises it means that at least the pocket routine must continue, so we'll make a smooth change.
This also made me think about how disconnected I've been these days, something so important in the city where I live and I hadn't heard about it, if it wasn't for today's walk I would be at home reading some book without knowing anything until I needed to go out to look for something in particular, and that's something that I lost the habit of doing long ago, I don't like to feed the despair.

In any case, I plan to continue using the protection, these measures have been heard before and I don't know how definitive it is, I have ended up getting used to wearing it and I appreciate the anonymity it gives us. It is not that I prefer it, of course not, let's say it is a certain mistrust that I hope will not last long, but for them, things will have to start going well and that detail is the one that I do not see so clear.
