What are you doing here?
I went to your apartment again.
What for? I told you to stay away.
I had to return to reclaim what's mine
That's where my son lives.
Why did you say it was Amador's
Well, I-
Stop lying!
Father Anselmo told me everything.
Why? Explain yourself.
You didn't need to know.
The baby is mine. There's nothing between us.
How could you say that?
How could you run away?
Why did you disappear, Marichuy?
Did you really despise me that much?
No, not hate.
It was for love.
What was that, Marichuy?
I did it for love.
I'm sure all I did was for love.
The first time I left you, I became sure of it.
The person I loved was the same person who hurt me so much.
It was because I loved you lots.
If I didn't think it was too much for me
I would have tolerated it.
But it didn't matter how much I loved you.
It was such a shock I couldn't bear it.
That's why I left you.
Mrs. Onelia, please sit down.
Tell us what happened.
I feel dazed and confused....
I think I might faint...
Maybe it was something you ate.
It might... but I don't feel that's right.
Must be all the stress from Viviana's case...
That must be it. Are you feeling ok now?
Help me to my room, please...
You heard her! Let's move.
Careful, ma'am...
Did you find anything?
I did. That's why I came here instead of calling.
Do tell.
I've been asking among some people
who had ties with Marichuy.
But no one knew her address.
What, then?
I'm getting there!
I called the theater where she works,
I told them I was a journalist looking to interview her.
So after some back and forth, I got it!
My God, I can't contain my excitement!
And what do we have here?
It's her address!
Rocío... Thank you, Rocío...
And even after that, I couldn't shake those feelings of love.
It felt like my heart was dancing around my chest.
And then, I found out I would be the mother of your child.
I then went looking for you.
Give you the good news.
Was it that day I found you in my house?
Yes, I waited a long time.
I wanted to tell you while you held me in your arms.
Then why didn't you tell me?
How could I?
The first thing you said to me
was that there was nothing between us.
That our bond was broken.
Trying to convinve me that I was never really your wife.
I thought it had been our divorce.
Marichuy, I was not in my right mind that day.
That was the day Viviana turned up alive.
I had just arrived from the hospital.
Yep. Viviana. Your first wife.
She of the legitimate claim.
Since she didn't matter
'cuz she just kicked the bucket.
But she turned up alive and kicking...
So I was kicked out of my spot beside you.
And so were you.
I regret not giving you a child, Elsa.
It's just as I told you...
If we had, I'd leave you something...
If a problem can't be fixed,
there's no point on dwelling on it.
Death can't be fixed, and it'll get me soon...
I'm leaving your life with nothing to show for it.
Just a collection of bitter memories...
Don't say that, Nelson.
We had our share of sweet moments.
I don't like talking about this subject...
What can we get from it?
Absolutely nothing! Just grief.
You're right...
All I'm left with is pain.
In the end, I'm still selfish.
Forgive me, honey.
Alright, Mrs. Onelia got her tea.
I also got you a glass of fresh juice.
Thank you Balbina!
-Enjoy! -So kind of you!
Let's see... Delicious!
Were you waiting for someone?
Rocío is going to take me shopping.
Omar is here!
I-I will w-wait for Rocío b-b-back in my room...
I'll tell her.
Is it just me, or did Mrs. Blanca turn tail when she saw me?
Well, Mrs. Blanca has always been shy...
Specially around strangers.
That man... Everytime I see that man...
There's something about him...
His name is Omar...
Omar!?
I never pushed you away.
You told me to leave.
You said what we had was over.
Why did you leave me, then?
I didn't know the truth.
I was wrong. How could I have known?
Marichuy, you should have been honest with me.
You shouldn't have left without telling me
that you were carrying my child!
What for?
So you had an excuse to look after me?
Was my baby a load on your back?
No, Juan Miguel.
I don't want anything from you.
Not if it's just from obligation.
Marichuy, you're the most important person to me.
You're lying!
After I was gone, your wife was there to take my place.
I couldn't do anything else.
Everything was as if I was never there.
I heard you took her everywhere!
And also, that you were going to have a baby.
That was one of Viviana's lies.
They proved that during the trial a-
If you believed her,
it was because there was something between you two.
If Viviana could bear your kid,
it's because you were involved.
Yo! How are you feeling now?
So-so...
You should shave, Nelson.
Hey! Where are you going?
I'm putting Beatriz's baby to sleep.
Now hold on a moment.
It's getting sleepy.
I'll tuck him in.
Amador, Beatriz isn't here.
Stop kidding around, Elsa!
Amador...
I just want to be with my son.
Such a fine specimen!
Like father, like son! So proud.
What will you name him?
Eduardo.
Marichuy, I was the victim of one of her ploys.
We were out, she got me drunk and-
Look, I don't want to hear it.
I'm not asking for your explanation.
I want you to know the reason.
I wanted-
Our relationship was over.
You could do whatever you wanted.
If I had done what I wanted...
If I had known what was happening...
I would have searched for you
in every corner of the earth!
But you went missing.
I thought you wanted nothing to do with me.
So you moved on to the next woman?
Marichuy, please...
I was not aware of your wife's second death.
When I knew you were a suspect
I rushed back looking for you.
To provide you my moral support.
To tell you "Here we are, here's your son"
We'll be there for you! Fight!
But you were fighting for someone else.
A woman you saved from jail.
The woman who will be your wife. Am I right?
Marichuy...
I love you.
I wou-
After what Mayita's nursemaid did for you
I don't think you'd leave her in the dust.
So she "saves" you from your wife
and she takes her place?
Am I right?
Cat's got your tounge?
You don't need to answer.
Everything I said is the truth!
35... carry the 1... 40...
20 times 7...
(My dear daughter.)
(The only one I could think of
for a long time!)
(But now, there's another one.)
(A boy who shares a bond just like yours.)
(And I haven't even been able to hold him yet.)
(I haven't been able to caress him,
to spend time with him)
-Hi, honey! -Daddy! You're home!
Stop, you're ticklin me-
(You have a brother, my special girl.)
(The brother you always wished for.)
You're squeezing me!
Mayita, are you done with your homework?
Your bath is ready.
I'll go take my bath!
I want to spend time with grandma Onelia!
She'll be leaving soon... It makes her sad.
Does that make you sad, dear?
A bit, daddy.
She scolds me a lot, but she's my grandma.
I will miss her.
I have to go, daddy.
You look tired.
Is something worrying you?
No, it's nothing.
Is your arm healed?
It's much better now.
To think I could hurt you even more...
Since I love you so much.
(Those damned scum!)
(And yet, they have the nerve to claim
that they didn't get together to murder Viviana!)
(That was their plan from the start!)
(And now that murderer is free to take her place!)
(But not for long...)
(San Roman will rue the day he decided to kick me out!)
(I shall stay to enact my revengeance upon them!)
Will you ever be able to forgive me?
You don't have to worry about it, Blanca.
Now, if you'll excuse me...
Will you be back for dinner?
Yes. Would you let Balbina know?
Juan Miguel!
I'll be wearing one of my new dresses today.
Rocío made me buy so many...
I hope you'll like it.
I surely will.
Marichuy, it was all a ruse!
Emotions went wild!
I had too much to drink and-!
You don't need to justify yourself.
I didn't ask for an explanation!
Come on in, father.
Thank you, Marichuy!
-I needed to see you. -Please, take a seat.
Father, why did you spill the beans to Juan Miguel?
I really don't know what to do, Eduardo.
Blanca got involved in the nasty incident
of Viviana's death. And it was my fault!
Consciously or not, she only intervened
to save me from my own wife!
No doubt about it!
And now, you feel you owe her?
And also, I feel like she's attached to my life.
Eduardo, Blanca has no one else to turn to.
After this nightmare, my house must fell like heaven to her.
With Mayita's love and my support...
And I promised we'd marry as soon
as she was free-
Juan Miguel, you're forgetting something.
She thinks you're going to help her.
And that, too!
If I left her, she would not take it well!
And she doesn't deserve that.
No. Blanca is a kind, sweet woman who's been through a lot.
She's so shy and sensitive...
I know I'm morally in her debt,
but Marichuy returned, Eduardo.
And she brought our son!
A son she and I brought to the world!
There are memories
that get wrapped up in tears.
Next to the fear
of falling in love again
My voice had lost
Any sense when I spoke
And just from hearing you
Just from seeing you
Love starts again
You’re the light
The only one that can touch this heart
There’s no one else but you
lighting the stars inside of me
I shall follow you wherever you may go
Since no one else
Looks at me like you do
Only you…
It’s you
Only you…
Grandma! I was just about to go take my bath
but I wanted to see you, and-
Could you leave your dog outside, Mayita?
You know I'm not good with animals.
Don't worry. I'll kiss you good bye and then we go.
Come, Friender.
Wait, darling!
Don't leave me so soon.
Your dog can stay.
How did you get sick, grandma?
I think all that's happened has stressed me out.
And I can't bear the thought of being unable to see you.
You don't want to leave?
It pains me going away from you.
You're the only thing that remains from your mother,
my dear daughter Viviana.
Don't worry. Mommy is in a better place now.
You're such a sweet child.
I may be strict, but I do it out of love.
Sunday is the last time you'll see your grandma.
God knows when I'll return.
I'll miss you very, very much.
Blanca, wait!
Everytime you see me, you run for cover.
Why is that?
Me? No-no, you must be mistaken-
What's it gonna be this time?
I'm v-very busy, and I have-
Taking your role of housewife very seriously, eh?
When's the wedding?
Soon... It will be soon-
What if Juan Miguel wants to come back to you?
What if he wants to marry you?
He doesn't want that!
He is marrying another woman!
That's what they've said.
But saying and doing-
It's just- Father, you shouldn't have been talking about that!
How could I let him believe
that the father was Amador Robles!?
Because I said so!
I told him myself.
I couldn't allow that!
It was just a little white lie!
That couldn't be too bad.
You shouldn't have lied in the first place!
You have the bad habit of making things up.
You always say what benefits you
while omitting the parts you don't like.
Many times I have stayed silent
but I couldn't allow this!
Look, father-
Do you want to be branded a tramp?
That your baby was concieved in sin?
No sir!
I refuse to allow that!
Now that thing I wanted to avoid
is going to happen anyway!
Juan Miguel will try to take him away!
Maria de Jesus.
You've brought many misfortunes unto yourself.
Not just this Juan Miguel business.
There's also the issue of your parents.
I think you need to adjust your attitude.
You're not the only one with feelings, you know?
Everyone has emotions.
That love you have for your baby?
Your mother feels the same about you.
Even if you won't accept it. Even if you don't know who she is.
I know who she is, Father.
It's Cecilia Velarde.
Tomorrow is the day!
I'm going to see my daughter!
It doesn't matter if she rejects me.
Tomorrow...
...And then he leaned in and kissed my cheek
like never before!
It's just that he was busy elsewhere.
That's why he looked so detached.
But I know that's not the only thing on your mind.
It's just that... I feel sad because grandma Onelia has to leave the house.
I love her lots, even when though she scolds me!
You do well in loving her.
It tells me you're a good girl.
You must love people, flaws and all!
That is the true nature of love!
If she has to leave, you shouldn't worry.
She'll be back, someday...
You think so, gran-gran?
I'm sure of it!
She will be back before you know it!
And it's not like you can't visit her.
I'll do it, gran-gran!
I'll do it, and you'll be proud of me, you see!
Who told you that?
When did you find out?
El Leopardo blurted it out.
So you know?
And then I paid them a visit.
Who did you talk to?
Judge Velarde.
I don't know, Juan Miguel.
Maybe Blanca would understand.
Still, Eduardo.
I'm in her debt.
If I were to leave her, her other personality could easily take over.
The damage to her physique would be huge.
But I'm still love Marichuy.
I love her and my son, from the bottom of my heart!
Why don't you let Blanca decide?
I don't know... I can't think of a way
to explain it all and still be able to face her.
This is something you must do, Juan Miguel.
You can't marry her
while keeping Marichuy and your son a secret.
I guess it has to be this way...
Do you think Marichuy will accept you
if you decide to dump Blanca?
I don't know...
And what did the judge say?
He's still the same stubborn, cruel old man.
He yelled at me before kicking me out of his office.
My God, Maria de Jesus!
That's why I don't want anyone else in my life.
Besides Candelaria and you, Father.
I hope they finally understand and leave us alone.
So night falls again.
Free, without having to worry about those filthy cages...
I'm free...
It's nighttime.
Nighttime!?
There's nothing to worry about...
I'm with the people who love me.
Nothing bad will have happen-
Nothing bad needs to happen...
Lirio, you too?
Why?
Could it be...?
Omar? What's wrong?
I think I just saw a ghost...
Who's there?
Blanca, may I come in?
Yes.
Is dinner ready?
No its...
I think we need to talk.
How are things at Velarde's?
Have you talked with Patricio again?
Yes, we went over the trial again.
He says there's proof of Viviana's crimes.
She got involved with some jamaican guy...
Then she tried to poison a friend of hers.
I told you! Viviana was a basket case!
And you thought it couldn't be true!
It was a huge shock to everyone.
Onelia is still in denial, however.
It's always harder for the mother.
But knowing Onelia, she won't take this sitting down.
She's going to sink Juan Miguel and the nursemaid.
I think you should win over Onelia.
She'll get rid of that murderous broad, no matter the cost.
Well then. Cheers!
Who goes there?
It's me, Omar!
Alright sir, come right in!
Lala...
Yes, sir?
Tell Lirio I want to see her.
What did you want to tell me, Juan Miguel?
Blanca, do you remember Marichuy?
The woman who used to be my wife?
I do. Did something happen?
I found her.
Really?
Yes. I found her and my son.
She had my son!
I thought you needed to know.
You... Still love her?
Do you still love her, Juan Miguel?
Where is she?
Whenever I come here at night, she's not here.
She told you to never come at this hour!
He's with Amador Robles!
Yes.
Where did he take her?
Who, Amador Robles?
Yes, where did he take her?
I couldn't take you.
I don't like sticking my nose on other people's business.
I can't understand what Lirio's relationship with that man is!
By day, he's never here.
But at night, they both vanish without a trace.
How could Lirio leave her child alone?
What was that?
Am I just for decoration or-
Lala, you may have good intentions.
But what would you do if, say
that baby suddedly fell ill?
Bite your tongue!
Lala...
I'll call a doctor! Then-
I want to remind you that I am a doctor.
This is the San Roman's residence number.
I'm staying there at the moment.
Put that card next to the phone,
don't hesitate to call me.
But I still can't accept Lirio being with Amador.
I'll go to every bar and drink one to her name!
I won't stop until I find them!
What? That will just leave you drunk!
It's going to end like in The Hangover!
Oh my God!
What are your feelings towards Marichuy?
First, I want you to know that I'll never leave you.
I want you to know this isn't me telling you I'll stop caring for you.
You haven't answered my question.
Do you love her more than me?
It's two different kinds of love.
You couldn't compare them.
There are no words to express my feelings for you.
Or my feelings for Marichuy, for that matter...
They are completely different emotions.
I can't explain it.
I may have a word for it.
You love her with a passion,
while you only pity me.
That's oversimplifying a very complex issue.
There are things-
Things like a promise to me? An obligation?
Blanca-
Don't feel dragged down by me, Juan Miguel.
It's just that we're bound together...
She gave you a son.
Yes. I didn't know until now.
I had been thinking of the best way to break the news to you.
I thought you had a right to know.
I am bound to two people with ties that cannot be broken.
A son... A son is above anything else.
I have to be there for the child.
I haven't even been able to hold him...
I think about him, Blanca.
I can't help but think about him fondly...
I understand...
It's only natural.
Wanting to be with your child and his mother...
That's why, Juan Miguel...
You're free to go to them!
This is not fair, Lirio.
Going out with that two-bit nobody.
I hate him with every fiber of my being!
I knew it!
No, Omar-
Why did you hide her?
Why did you hide her from me?
I have nothing to say to you.
That smug dastard.
If it didn't hurt Lirio, I swear I'd kill him!
But Lirio is the more important one here...
I still love her.
I hope that she accepts my love one day...
I admire your nobility, Blanca.
Giving up something you wanted so badly...
You need me.
But I can't keep you down.
I think this is a plea to let you go.
Blanca...
What would I do if Marichuy rejects me?
Why would she?
I'm sure she's ecstatic, now that you're together.
I'm afraid that is not the case.
Even after sharing this responsability.
Marichuy hid the boy from me.
She insists that he belongs to her only.
That's why it's worse than you think.
I have to look after him, give him my name...
All a child needs from a father.
This is why I needed to tell you.
It was important for you to know.
At least, that's what I fell.
As for everything else,
nothing's changed between us. Ok?
He's leaving me...
I know he's leaving me...
I've been looking for you...
I can not live without you.
!
Come on in, Balbina.
Balbina told me you were sick. What is it?
Ok, I'm coming! Jeez...
Omar!?
What's up?
Forgive me, I didn't know where else to go.
Explain, what's the deal?
I think I'm seeing things...
She came back to chase me!
She? Who?
Ivette!
Ivette?
