M m dimy sir. In Alcalá
street there was once a man who waited

2
00:00:08.320 --> 00:00:12.240
for his love sitting on a wooden
bench next to the Quintana Metro in Madrid

3
00:00:12.279 --> 00:00:16.760
' s Alcala street. Then,
the days without fail sat at the same

4
00:00:16.879 --> 00:00:23.120
bank and patiently waited for her to
return. But one day something strange happened.

5
00:00:24.120 --> 00:00:27.800
His love was lost on Alcala Street
and he never came back. The

6
00:00:27.800 --> 00:00:31.719
lord was disturbed by the loss and
continued to sit on the same bench,

7
00:00:32.119 --> 00:00:36.399
waiting and waiting. Day after day. People passing by Alcalá street began to

8
00:00:36.439 --> 00:00:40.000
notice the gentleman sitting on the bench
day after day, and some even began

9
00:00:40.079 --> 00:00:46.880
to worry about him. But he
never talked to anyone. He simply sat

10
00:00:46.920 --> 00:00:52.359
there looking towards the horizon with a
sad expression on his face. Over time,

11
00:00:52.759 --> 00:00:56.880
the lord began to show signs of
aging, but still, he never

12
00:00:57.280 --> 00:01:00.920
stopped waiting for his love. On
the same wooden bench next to the quintana

13
00:01:00.039 --> 00:01:04.680
metro, people began to call him
the bank man and his story became an

14
00:01:04.719 --> 00:01:11.480
urban legend on Alcalá Street. Although
it was never known that his love happened

15
00:01:11.480 --> 00:01:15.640
to him, the lord continued to
sit on his bench until the end of

16
00:01:15.640 --> 00:01:19.599
his days and though he never found
the peace or happiness that his love for

17
00:01:19.760 --> 00:01:23.879
her longed for, he never faded
away and his story became an inspiration for

18
00:01:23.879 --> 00:01:30.599
those who passed by Alcalá street and
saw him sitting there waiting. Actor José
