I just love doctors But Omar IS a doctor Relax, if me being near Dr. Contreras worries you, sorry doc, wich i doubt! i won't get between you, ill even go, bye She is unpleasant, Marichuy, lets go Why dont you wait just a little longer?

I love you, beautiful I love you -Cool, thanks... -What are you going to drink? -ahh... anything is fine Two cappucinos please -No, two teas instead -Two teas, please. Chamomile? -Yes, please. Juan Miguel wasn't with his fiancee at the show, Miss Silva -I noticed he was alone -Is he always by himself? -Dunno -I wonder why she doesnt take him out I think Blanca is a total Downer -Do you know her? -She came to see me once -Really? Why? -Will she be forced to become a nun? They cant force her, Im scared, they prepared her, Purita agreed till the last moment and now... Here comes father Alselmo Father, what will happen to Purita? Thank you Blanca told me if i wanted to be with Juan Miguel, she wouldn't stop me & she'd leave, honestly shes weak, she needs him. No, as she entered his house, she found that leaving him would be like dying -Thats why you were so generous? -Generous? Tell me in a way i can understand. What did you meant? Nothing, nothing, forget about it. Well what were you going to talk about ? Some big deal, right? I cant tell Marichuy that Yvette is Blanca When pity for Blanca runs out, then Miguel and her can be together. I dont want to lose you, Marichuy Theres no conclusion yet, the council will study the case and decide later on Does puritas feelings do not matter here? Of ocurse theyll be taken into account. Is Purita ok? Did you talked to her? She is in the convent and later her cell Will she be incarcerated? Of course not, Olga. But she is not a nun yet. She is not. She regretted when she was taking her vows Youll help her, right? Father Anselmo? Why so serious? We should be happy she reacted! In its own time, you know that, father. Honestly, i am overwhelmed, she should not have waited so long to change her mind Check please. Youre being weird, Omar What were you going to tell me? If you want lets go to the plantation We aint going to the plantation, now or ever -What then? -We can stay and marry at the capital. But the plantation has the life you like. I can throw that away for you, Marichuy Ill do anything for your happiness, so please decide You are not really in love with Blanca, why do you put so much effort into making her your wife? I dont love her ill confess, but i do have affection for her SHE KILLED YOUR WIFE, shes a murderer Just because she is ill, she needs my help I get it, but why not be apart from her emotionally? Shell be a burden all your life Blanca will never make you happy, Juan Miguel I want Juan Miguel, there no point to even crying now What do you want me to do to make my son have a dad of his own Do you want my son to take him away from Blanca, who is ill? She told me shed sacrifice herself for me He was yours first, and hell always be, no matter what,just like youre his first I will feel guilty with Juan Miguel Youre too good, who can assure you that Juan Miguels marriage will last Youll always be thinking about eachother. Theres nothing more i can do Candelaria Of course you do, snatch him away from her -But Cande -No Recover the man you love, your boys father, before its too late And you lose him forever Recover the man you love, recover him! Recover the man you love, your sons father recover him! -Dont say that, Candelaria -Its just the right thing to do -What about Omar? -Speak the truth to Mr. Leopard. Marry San Roman again, and everyones happy Let see, wait, you need to understand Juan Miguel has never said he'll leave Blanca to marry me Hah! No? He said he loves me He is willing to renounce the child, but he has never said hed leave her For me, never. I wish it was easier to tell Blanca to go I dont need her To look for another shrink to cure her, because truthfully I dont care for her If you put it that way It would be hard, Eduardo....It would be cruel, the last thing i want is having to resort to that, id have to sugarcoat it with nice words Fill it with justifications, apologies, but deep down it wouldnt matter It will be the same punch that will destroy her as she was saved I find it impossible to stay here, Rocio In this house, besides Juan Miguel and alongside you But he wants me to be your wife I cannot be, i should not be Because of your illness? Juan Miguel is certain he can cure you Theres other reasons, Rocio, reasons that anguish me, that do not allow me to heal I have an atrocious fear, terrible thoughts overcome me What kind of thoughts? Ivette, that awful woman that lives inside me hates Viviana, and now, she hates... Marichuy! Ill confess im not as noble as you, regardless of the pity i have for cousin Elsa, im not willing to return to her Yes, but Beatriz loves you, and its not what you think, its what you know -That is true -There no man between you too Thats true too You have to concentrate here, if you want to turn this.... -You press here and here and... -Everything is ready to publish Nelson's poem book, im gonna realize his last wish Well, well, it looks like its a moral responsability you cant wait to get off of No, dad Im doing this out of joy, and to be frank, i wish to resolve this and bring closure to these memories, and concentrate more on me, begin again and not look back, but forward. No, my daughter. You cant always erase the past I'll do it, dad and Eduardo is going to help I dont think you should count too much on him, he is very busy with his own bussiness, my love. -Like what? - The wedding, Have they chosen a date? -I beg your pardon? -Have you decided on a date? Your weddign with Eduardo? I dont know what you are talking about Daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy, Cuate.... cant have puppies My love, i am afraid its not possible Why? Because he is a male But we can marry him, and her wife could have babies Just how many dogs there would be? A whole bunch, but ill be hella happy with just one! "Hella" just like Marichuy used to say, i just want a baby to hold and play with him.... Honey, that is why you have dollies... So you can play with them But the dollies dont move, they're stiff. I want a puppy that moves, that is warm, and that is a real baby! My love, to begin with, a puppy is not a baby But since i can't have a real brother, im happy with just a puppy, daddy You know, maybe soon enough you'll have a little brother, just like you want to I doubt it, you always cheat me, my mom cheated and Marichuy too, she said she would bring me a little brother, and she never did, she kept me hanging... My love, i think you wont have to wait much longer I know Juan Miguel very well, he is too picky Too self righteous, he is willign to put up with stuff first and act more with his conciousness than his heart He is very similar to you Theres something similar going on between ud two, he is cold, im a crybaby, regardless, theres people who has nothing cares about nothing and you know what? I wish i was like that something God forgvies you, thats stuff for bad peeople, ruthless, i know a lot about that Yes, but the ruthless grab what they want from life, without caring of those around them, they do not care who they hurt, that is why i wish to be like that, to grab joy with my own hands and not conform with the fake smile id have besides any other man besides Juan Miguel Even when i was a hungry child in the hospice, do you remember? I used to fight with the biggest kids to take their loaf of bread, but i never touched the weakest or the most hungry, i cant be like that But yeah, id like to be harder so i don't have to feel so much, to stop suffering Oh, Marichuy Why did he waited so long, sister , we never forced anyone to stay in this place, who comes here comes voluntarily, looking to serve god with the firm belief that gives a deep vocation Forgive me, Mother. Has he faith failed? Was she not strong enough to relinquish her life to God? i believe in God, Mother, i love him but i am unworthy of him Why do you say that? Because when i was supposed to think only thought him, i thought about my mother and i also thought about... in that young man who sneaked inside? Forgive me Mother, please forgive me If you ever doubted, you should have told earlier, your case is grave due to the way it originated. Go to your cell, dont cry, comfort yourself with prayer Go, go, please... -I'll go see who it is, ill be right back -Kay, Cande. Come in, come in! Come in, feel at home and take a seat Tehres Marichuy! She has a baby on her arms, is that the dad? He is my little brother. -Come in -Thank you I wish to talk to you with the people closest to Purita, because what happened is very regretable, we want to find an explanation and a pious and just solution, thats why we must ask you some questions, sit down I am okay like that, Mother. Ask me whatever you want My good lady, what pushed your daughter to become a nun -In part, it was because of me... Mother Well i think thats it, even if im ashamed belief, i must say this I do not understand I was a sinner, a woman of the easy life, and Purita wanted to consagrate her life to God, to cleanse my soul of sin, to save me, the same way Jesussacrificed his life to save such sinful and evil humanity, that's how she wished to carry her cross on her shoulders because of me It wasn't just because of that, Olga. she had to stand the hatred of a society full of prejudice and false moral concepts she was isolated, rejected humilliated because she was Olgas child, a woman who comited a mistake wich she made up for, and she was more than regretful for what happened and instead of forgivance and kindness, instead of giving a hand, they tried to drown them both on the swamp, one of them, even if it ashames me to admit was my own mother, because when i tried to offer Purita my love and name, she rejected me and came to the convent, it was a desire for purification, but also sadness of seeing her dreams broken, to believe her happiness by my side was impossible, truth is i love Purita, Mother and she loves me -Is that my little brother? Mine?! -Yes, yes, Mayita Is she a girl like me? -No, he is a little man. -Even better, can i touch him? -Of course you can -Her hands are so cool like a doll! but he has real nails Ah! he grabbed my finger! -Look at it he is already playing with you! -And the hair is real too? -Yes it is. -Ah, look at his little ears, theyre real. -Yes. -What is his name, Marichuy? -Juanito, his name is Juanito Miguel. -Hm, just like you, eh? Is he mine? Is he the brother you always promised me? Yes, he is your brother! Im busy! You cant run away from me, Beatriz, it's foolish, you better tell me the truth becaused ill find out if i ask Eduardo Theres only one truth, Elsa, you're like a sister to me, this has been like a home for some time, and your parents are the only ones i know Will you pay for all this by giving me Eduardo? Eduardo is yours, i am nothing to him really... Mom says that Eduardo loves you Doña Luisa thinks ill sacrifice myself for you, she doesn't realize that i have something big to fight and live for, that fulfills my life, my son, you instead... What? Elsa, sister, let me feel useful sometimes let me give you something, i have never been able to give something to anyone, let me give something to you Why did you not take this home like you promised He is still too little... Thats the way i want him, you're going to play with me when you grow, right? -Can i kiss him, Marichuy? -Of course you can, whatever you want! She said yes! I think the boy is a little tired, let's take him to the crib I'll help you carry him No, he is too little still, and he is very restless, he can fall, but let's go so you can help me tuck him in -Ok, let's go! let's go! With that said, you're confessign to me that Eduardo loves you he thinks that because... we were able to understand eachother truly, Eduardo supported me, and i gave him comfort, and from this exchange, something rised something he believed was love towards me the big love of his life, and when theyre together now, it will all be like at the beggining, when he only thought of you and he not only said, but proved he adored you That won't happen again... If you try, you can get him back, youre a winner, you always achieve what you want Beatriz you need to understand also be strong, too. Do not surrender your joy your happiness, the happiness you were waiting for, just grab it, and dont let it nothing should matter more why did you do that? why? You offered that to Mayita Yes, but when i thought it could be possible, i thought everything could be fixed between us. but now why we should let Mayita know the child exists, she might not be able to see him ever again after all She will, she will see him again, just like i will be able to see him again Look, Juan Miguel because my son is something you wont take away from me please, allow us to take her right now Mother... i am sorry, but it is not possible what will you do with her? I cannot decide that alone then? Your case will be handled with utmost care and though Father Alselmo you will be told whatever the eclesiastic authorities have determined Have a good afternoon, there is nothing more to say at the moment. -Good afternoon, Mother. -I hope you have a good afternoon. Please intercede for us, Mother, in the name of the love of god that put Purita in me, and has kept himself above all of it I can0t renounce to everything, Marichuy, its enough if i lose you, but this creature that was born through the love between us... Enough, i already told you that... Marichuy i understand your reasons, even i share some of them, i would not have wished him to be born into a divorced couple, but am i responsible for everything that has happened? Why do i have to be the only one to pay it hurts me that something that is mine could belong to someone else okay, the truth is that... I dont want another father to my son, Marichuy, please understand that at least.... understand it What a beautiful litttle brother i have, Candelaria beautiful is too little, he is gorgeous Dont't speak loudly since the baby is sleeping, Candelaria tells me he is gorgeous, isn't that right? Just like his dad, isnt he? -Yes, my love, i am his father too, -Then, can we take him home? No, my love, we can't do that, Juanito has to stay here, at home because Marichuy will care for him -Marichuy is his mom? -That's right Then theres no problem, she can just come with us too she can leave at home, just like before -Mayita, that cant be -Why? Because, my love it just can't be The sin they commited, wasn't the fault of those two, Adrian wanted to see Purita its true, and you know how youth is impetuous and is willing to be led astray for their feelings, buti t was i who lit the fire Why do you say that, Father? I was the one who told Adrian theres a wall in the convent and i told him how to jump over it Your fault is grave, you caused the violation of the sacredness of this place I know that, altho it is also a grave fault to make a creature with mundane feelings to consagrate her life to divinity Father... I had my doubts about Puritas vocation, thats why i wanted to test her, and now i see i was right. Your intentions were good, Father, altho your methods were...unconventional I will admit that, and i assume full responsability I realized she dedicated her life to god as a sacrifice Has a conclusion been reached about her? Yes, Father Andelmo, that is why i called for Purita, who is now waiting outside -Should i call for her? -Please, Father. lets see what decision has been taken Juanmi, why wont you let Blanca leave the house, just like she wants. What brings this advice now, Rocio? You care for Blanca You approved my decision to make her my wife, why the change now? Look, sister, its just... everything is more complicated than i thought Blanca is really torn apart and anything could happen theres something keeping her restless i need to talk to her and Over all i need to insist on the motive for her emotional turmlil, until, she understands and rationalizes it What does she need to be cured? Shell heal, Rocio, Blanca will be cured completely Oh, brother, make sure it happens soon, and if it's not possible, let her go let ger go -Rocio, please... -Let her go... far away Just as Blanca cant stay, if she does I have a feeling something bad will happen -Come in, come in! -Thank you -sit down, sit down! -Candelaria, so, is it happening? Yes Miss Cecilia, i think its for real When is the wedding? Theres no set date. Marichuy is tangled with the new theater play But as soon as it comes out, she will marri with Don Omar Contreras then whe will leave theater, and she'll go live at the plantation for ever No ma'am, they won't go now and they won't go ever -How? -That s supposed to be already decided Really, Candelaria? The thing is she complained a lot so he decided they would live here in Mexico Candelaria, what happines it gives me, now i will have the time to gain Marichuys forgivance, oh my God I noticed you like to carry Juanito a lot you dont know what it means to me having him in my arms, coddle him, Hah, i am not an insensitive woman, all my life ive felt alone, frustrated at my own maternal instincts, suffering for the daughter i lost, how much i woulg have given up to have Marichuy by my side and see her grow but that was not meant to be Sometimes life is really hard, and really sad Yes, my Marichuy went through so much suffering and she has such ressentiment that she has not been able to forgive me I missed her childhood, those moments that could have been so sweet, but in were sour to that poor girl Not to mention her teenage years, on that phase she needs her parents so much, because we didn't had eachother, the thing that impeded her being happy besides Juan Miguel... San roman Its true, it took me a lot to talk to her about what had happened, but Sit down, sit down If we could go backk in the past, and live the same circumstances, we could change them, but in reality, theres so many things that have no remedy But with this baby, it's like everything started all over, to give us a chance to do everything again That is right, Miss Cecilia Thank God, they wont take you far, for not at least, right? My little grandsom, my love, you're such a cute little boy Right now im looking for Marichuy... at the theatre... no, not there, there other night she was not there...this time im going to her home There goes that woman again... That french... And time passed, and everynight, without the bad fairy's knowledge the sun prince arrived under the iwndow and sanf "Rapunzel, corceress girl, thow me your braid" and the girl threw her golden locks outsie the window, of course you want have braids, right,? You're bald, baldie. Rocio is too worried with Blancas problem, enough to tell me to let her go home And the evil fairy was enraged, and said "Who has taught you these thing?s" And the little girl answered: -"Um, the sun prince" Can you imagine how beautiful the prince was, like Juan Miguel, imagine when... I didnt noticed you arrived, what time is it? I did not thought it was this late; i told him a story and sang him to sleep I was never told any story, i was not sang to sleep i learned many tales and i never had any to tell them to me, anyone to sing a song, sometimes id sing songs or tell stories to a little girl that i knew should be somewhere... i just did not know where It's foolish to spend time telling stories to my son, because he is not oldenough to understand I know, but since he was so quiet, it was as if he enjoyed listening to the sweetness of the words, and maybe when he grows up i might not be able to tell him a story at all... So how does the story ends, maybe one day I will tell him, i am sure he will want to know how it ends, no'? And here i am wasting time telling stories... It ends well, like all fairytales, the witch is punished and loves triumph overall, and the girl and the prince marry and they live happily ever after Too bad that life is not like a fairytale, is it? Well, in real life, love almost always triumphs, Marichuy, only we need to trust and bide. Theres someone at the door, want me to open? Do you always have visitors so late at night? -No, its strange for someone to knock this late -Alright, i will go open up Has Blanca confessed something that she has not dared to tell me? These warnings, these premonitions -What do you want? Who are you? -I saw you, i saw you two What are you doing here, what do you want here? -For you! You will answer me -Get out, get out of here! Leave Marichuy alone, leave inmediately -Leave the baby alone! -Leave the baby! -no, no, noooooo Let him go!
