La última Comida

El gordo se sentó con la parsimonia que le permitía su cuerpo, les sonrió, después se colocó la servilleta de tela con mucha tranquilidad, ellos lo miraban sin emitir ninguna palabra, hizo una señal al mesonero y en ese momento salieron con la comida que fueron sirviendo ubicando todos los utensilios de acuerdo las normas de etiqueta.
—Es una buena comida y hay que disfrutarla, así me lo decía mi padre, si vas a alimentarte hazlo con gusto.
—No estamos acostumbrados a esto señor, pero ya que así lo dispone, así será, —dijo uno de ellos con cierto nerviosismo.
—Bueno, caballeros, si desean decir algo, orar o quizás agradecer por este momento les respeto por ello.
El gordo se quedó mirándolos, esperando una respuesta que no llegó.
—¿Señor Rodrigo, podemos empezar?
—¡Adelante caballeros!
El gordo comenzó a comer sin apuros y disfrutando cada bocado, ellos lo miraban de reojo, como esperando que algo sucediera.
—Saben una cosa caballeros, es rico disfrutar una buena comida, solo hay un detalle que olvidé decirles y por eso tuve que cambiar los cocineros y el servicio de mesoneros.
El gordo Rodrigo sonrió, más cuando vio la cara de ellos cambiando de color al sentir que algo no andaba bien en su organismo.
—Disfruten de la buena comida caballeros, lamento que sea la última.

The last meal.

The fat man sat down with the parsimony that his body allowed him, smiled at them, then calmly placed his cloth napkin, they looked at him without uttering a word, and he signaled to the waiter. At that moment they came with the food that was served, placing all the utensils according to the rules of etiquette.
—It's a good meal and you have to enjoy it, that's what my father told me if you're going to feed yourself, do it with pleasure.
—We're not used to this, sir, but since that's the way you want it, so be it, —said one of them nervously.
—Well, gentlemen, if you wish to say something, pray, or perhaps thank me for this moment, I respect you for it.
The fat man stared at them, waiting for an answer that did not come.
—Senor Rodrigo, may we begin?
—Go ahead, gentlemen!
The fat man began to eat without haste and enjoying every bite, they looked at him out of the corner of their eyes, as if waiting for something to happen.
—You know something gentlemen, it's nice to enjoy a good meal, there's just one detail I forgot to tell you and that's why I had to change the cooks and the waiters.
The fat Rodrigo smiled, even more, when he saw their faces changing color as he sensed something was wrong with their bodies.
—Enjoy the good food gentlemen, I'm sorry it's the last one.
