-
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!?
-
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?
