INTERNAL/EXTERNAL CONFLICT
Internal
Roberto: He is a shy person, but he’s so kind and good with
other people. He works in a bookstore. He is in love with Cristina, her friend,
but he can’t show her his emotions because of his shyness, and a “little”
detail, She is the girlfriend of his cousin, and boss, Walter.
Cristina: She is an outgoing person, very inteligent and
knows things about everything. She works in the same bookstore. She has feelings
for Roberto, but now she is engaged with Walter because they have started a little
firm of books and they’re going to get married in three months.
Walter: He is the boss and owner of the bookstore. He is too
much dedicated to his job, and isn’t the kind of person that shows emotions. He
is engaged with Cristina but isn’t in love with her. He thinks that she does
that’s why he is going to marry her and he feels forced to do it, and thinks
that she raises his social state.
External
Marta: She’s the sister of Roberto. She knows that Roberto
loves Cristina and she told her brother that if he doesn’t tell her what he
feels, she will, just for the good of both. She is friend of Cristina and knows
that she has feelings for Roberto, but she hasn’t told that to any of them.
Mila: She is a very regular customer of the bookstore, and
she likes Roberto, and knows what Cristina feels about him, so whenever she
can, put Roberto down only to separate them.
Javier: He’s the father of Walter, and the uncle of Roberto. He
only wants his son to succeed in the socioeconomic way, just for himself. That’s why he, in a soft and almost
subliminal way, tell Walter to marry Cristina because she comes from a good
family.
