CUIDADO CON EL ANGEL CAP 105

Unhand that boy!

You better stay put!

Omar, think about what you're doing!

Have you ever seen a mare following
their foal wherever it goes?

So you should follow me, now.

You're not getting out of here with my baby!

Lead the way if you want.

But we're leaving right now!

You said all that because your grandma is leaving?

Daddy, please, let her stay!

Look, Mayita, I think you're old enough
to understand what I'm about to tell you.

You're a smart girl. You understand
what grown ups say, right?

I-I think so...

You know your grandmother has always

said things to put you against me.

And she's been doing it

ever since your mom disappeared at sea.

When we all thought she was dead.

Your grandma told you I killed her, remember?

Yes, I remember...

And she wanted to take you with her,

leaving me alone in the house.

Do you think that's a good deed?

No... But she's sick now!

That's what she says,

and I can't deny it,

that's why I told her to take a few days,

and today's the final day.

But she's still leaving...

Did your grandma tell you to speak with me?

No, she didn't say anything like that!

She just told me she would miss me a lot...

I told her I would miss her too...

Even though you told me I could visit her
wherever she went to.

And I still say that, you'll visit her
whenever you want.

But I won't be able to see her everyday!

That's what makes me sad...

I love my grandma... I don't want to lose her...

I believe you, sweetheart.

If it makes you sad that she leaves the house,

I promise I'll do something about it.

Thank you daddy!

You're the best dad ever!

And you're the best daughter, who
we all love so much...

That's not gonna happen, Omar.

Now give me back my baby!

Stand aside, Marichuy.

Come on, give him back!

I told you, stand aside!

I'll take the boy with me, and you'll follow.

Did you forget he's sick or what?

The doctor said he shouldn't be exposed,

now give him back!

Give him back already!

Do you want me to get mad enough

to start beating you up or what?

You were sneaking out the house last night.

I don't know what you're talking about-

It was you!

Who else could it be?

You were wearing a scandalous dress...

You snuck out of the house!

Where were you headed to?

Answer me! Are you deaf?

Answer right now!

Were you the woman in the garden last night?

I can't answer, I don't know
what you're talking about .

I think Juan Miguel should hear this.

Please no, he's got his hands full.

The last thing he needs are more problems.

It might have been me, but...

It wasn't really 'me' me...

It must have been...

You're telling me that woman is
your alleged split personality?

Is that it?

My sweet pea...
You're a savage, you know?

Even more than me!

It's almost like you're heartless...

Don't insult me, now...

You wanted to take away my dear baby!

I just wanted to get you to follow me!

Well, that's not gonna happen! Now, get lost!

You're a bad guy, you know?

If I'm a bad guy, then you're an ingrate, lying,
teasing she-devil!

You don't know how much I want
to slap you silly right now!

Did you forget everything I've done,
everything I've given you?

Are you so petty to bring up the food you gave me?

No, I wouldn't!

But the love I gave you is a different matter!

For the life of your child, and for your own!

Well, I'll be thankful all my life!

But after your scene here,
I don't wanna hear about you, got it?

Marichuy, please...

I'll leave this with any man but you! Take that!

You're such an ingrate! Ingrate!

Ow!

Marichuy has a baby...

And I'll leave you all alone...

That's enough, Nelson.

Elsa...

Please, Nelson...

The palm of your hand holds the warmth of life...

Elsa, don't stay alone...

Come on, Nelson...

You don't need to be loyal to a memory...

Don't grieve me when I'm gone...

I don't want to talk about that.

Try to rebuild your life, look for love once more...

Get what I couldn't give you...

Nelson, I beg of you...

I'll feel better if you promise...

Promise me you won't end up alone...

Gaining the favor of that murderer...

I believe you need to change
your attitude with her.

You expect me to gloss over the fact
that she killed my daughter?

No, not at all.

All you need to do is pretend to be...

Confused, with everything that's happened.

Quite understandable. In the mean time...

We'll find a way to... 'erase' Blanca.

So it's true you've got a split personality?

Yes, ma'am. It's something I can't control.

It makes me do evil things without me knowing.

Did you really see me sneaking around
the garden last night?

I did. I saw you and you were dressed
in a very... scandalous manner.

Wearing loud clothes and with messy hair...

I wasn't close, but I could see it was you.

I don't know what I did.

I don't know where I went.

But it probably harmed someone.

My god, what's wrong with me?

You haven't tried to be better?

You don't know how much I've tried...

But I can't... Please forgive me, Mrs. Onelia!

I'm begging you...

In my current state, I would have never
done any harm to your daughter!

It was this evil being inside me!
That subdues and dominates me!

Please, forgive me! Forgive me!

Juan Miguel should have known

that your alleged disorder can't be cured...

It's not a lie! It's a real disorder!

Please stop doubting me...

Please don't tell Juan Miguel about last night...

If what you say it's true, you shouldn't be
allowed to roam around-

Please, give me time...

Perhaps, Juan Miguel is close to
discovering the root of all this...

And I'll finally be cured!

You have to make a decision...

And I believe it would be for the best

if you got out of Juan Miguel's way.

I can't promise anything.

Now's not the time, so please stop.

Heed my advice, Elsa.

If you get the opportunity to be happy...

Which I- Which I'm sure will happen...

Don't let it go.

Take it. Start a family.

Just like you always wanted.

Be happy. Have children.

Should your future husband allow it,

name one after me.

Nelson...

And when you visit my grave...

Take them there. I might not be able to see them...

But maybe I'll be able to feel their presence.

Don't live alone. After I'm gone...

Don't stay alone...

How could you hit me!?

I just reacted in self-defense!

I didn't mean to harm you!

You knew you were going to hurt me!

No, I wouldn't-

Get out! Don't make me bring out the broom!

I'm sorry! I reacted due to the pain!

And anyway, Marichuy made me do it!

Oh yeah? I never thought you'd be such an ass!

You only came here for this or what?

I came here desperate for your love!

I can't bear losing you!

I love you too much!

Oh yeah? Now leave!

Now that I see that you can't understand
my feelings for you, fine.

I'll leave you alone.

Goodbye, forever!

Does it hurt?

No, Cande...

He hit you right in the kisser!

I wanted to grab him by the neck-

And snap it like this!

-You know what?
-Huh?

I'll go get him and kick him in the shins!

No, Cande, leave him be!

But, Marichuy-

That's fine, finally one of them leaves my life!

It's fine, Juan Miguel and my parents
will leave me, too!

I better get used to being alone.

Don't you dare leave me!

I would never do that...

What's the matter, Blanca? Feeling well?

I feel strange...

Juan Miguel, could you take me to a hospital?

It would be better if I was locked up.

Being locked up would worsen your condition.

But Ivette-

We agreed to never speak of her again, right?

Blanca, there's no need to be upset.

You have me right here.

I won't leave you alone.

Are you sure, Juan Miguel?

You'll never leave me?

Well well, about time you showed up!

Hello.

You're an hour late!

Ramon is waiting for you!

I'm sorry...

It's that baby again, right?

Sometimes grown ups are
as troublesome as babies.

I'm ready for the rehearsal.

Get going.

Thank you.

I'm very sorry, boss.

That plan backfired, Cosme.

My advise didn't cover what you did.

It was self-defense! I didn't mean it!

But she took it like I really wanted to do it!

And so did Lala! What they said really got to me.

She kicked me out of her house,
told me she didn't want to see me ever again...

She suddendly became a beast
when I tried to take her son.

What happens now? You're returning to the ranch?

She called me a vandal savage! Which I am!

Of course I am!

Marichuy surely hates me now!

So, you've been crying?

Is it that obvious?

Sometimes tears make women's eyes
more beautiful.

They acquire a special clearness...

That's what yours look like.

Ready? Let's begin.

I shall never leave you, believe me.

But you go so often to Marichuy's house...

Blanca, my son is there,
I can't just leave him.

You told me you loved me.

Let's not talk about it, Blanca.

-I'm so scared, Juan Miguel-
-Your fears are another matter.

Try to understand.

As far as-

That's not the only reason.

There's something else.

What is it?

Could you lock the door in my bedroom,
the one that leads to the garden,

In such a way that can't be
opened from the inside?

Why would I?

I can't tell you... Please just do it.

Do it today, I'm really scared...

Hi, brother!

It's been a long day!

Did you visit Marichuy?

Yeah, sit down, I gotta tell you everything.

I saw your son, he's sooo cute!

I talked with Marichuy about you,

but she was in a hurry to leave for a rehearsal.

What did you tell her?

That she shouldn't have hid the fact
she was pregnant,

that she can't stop you from
from taking care of your son!

But, do you know why she's like that?

She's afraid you'll take him away.

Take him away?

Thank you, Federico!

Even if my life were to end this very moment,

I would part content after hearing
what you had to say.

Would you return to the forest?

No, it's too late, Rosalia.

In that place, all I had was hunger and fear!

Now I only hunger for you!

Olga!

Olga!

Sorry to bother you, I've been meaning
to talk with you for a while now.

What for?

I wanted to say sorry.

I was wrong to tell my son Adrian
to stop seeing Purita,

that they wouldn't be happy together.

It's true, Clemencia, you were wrong.

Nobody should meddle in a couple's affairs.

Not even mama hen, like you.

I admit, I shouldn't have been so meddlesome.

I wanted to tell you I'm sorry.

I've already forgave you...

I'm a mother too, I understand you wanted
the best for your son...

But the best for him was being with Purita!

They loved each other so much...

But now they've decided to live apart...

We're in the middle of a rehearsal!

Line!

Do I scare you?

With feeling!

Do I scare you?

This night, you do.

This night is not like any other.

There's a mysterious presence in the air.

Can you feel it, Rosalia?

I do, Federico!

I am scared too, for I could have never
known of its existance.

I don't want that, gran-gran,

I don't want grandma Onelia to leave!

I'll miss her too much!

You shouldn't get ahead of yourself, Mayita.

We have to wait and see.

I'm sure your dad is so understanding,

he might forgive her.

Can't you guide his conscience?

Please tell him to forgive her,

so that we become a happy family again!

Yes, Federico, there is a third mystery,

one that feels like facing God himself,

one that feels like facing death.

Say another word! I want to hear you speak!

There is no need, my dear.

That word, when it is true,
is better spoken in silence.

Just like this!

She's kissing another man!

That kiss must be more intense!

More passionate!

I want you to hold it until the curtain falls.

You're also tripping over your first lines.

Tomorrow, you'll recite it all from memory!

Understood?

Yes sir.

That'll be all for today. You can leave.

See you tomorrow, Ramon.

Come in.

You!?

Who did you think it was?

Your Romeo? Is that why
you let me in so quickly?

I should have known.

You came to the rehearsal to snoop around.

Why are you here?

To talk things out calmly.

Doesn't look like you'll do that-

How do you think I feel after seeing
what just happened there?

Do you think I'll stay calm?

What did you see, exactly?

You kissed that guy!

Ramon?

And you call him by name. Must be close to you.

That kiss was part of the play,

and if that upset you, tough.

It was just a rehearsal for a play.

For a rehearsal, it sure looked like a real kiss.

You're wrong there, Amador didn't like
our performance.

I heard him. He wanted more spark,

more passion, and you have to hold it
until the curtain falls.

Do you know how long you'll be kissing him?

You kept count?

Don't be so cynical, Marichuy.

Don't be so silly!

Silly? Me?

Yes! Making a big deal of a kiss on a play!

A two-minute long kiss.

So you were keeping count!

You two going at it in front of everyone!

You'd rather we kiss in the dark-

Stop saying nonsense.

Deal with it, Juan Miguel,

now make like a tree and stop
making it harder for me to-

I just can't allow that!

And who are you to tell me what to do?

I am the father of your child!

Where does it say so?

Nobody knows, nobody needs to know.

Don't bring up the baby.

As for me, you don't have the right to
tell me how to do my job!

Well, you better forget about playing pretend,

because I won't allow the mother of my son
to kiss a stranger every other day.

First of all, we do it every other night.

Do you think you can do
whatever you want with me?

Just like you.

Your life is yours, mine is mine.

You don't have to get all up in my business.

You're gonna have to let me in.

I won't do it!

If you don't, I'll take the baby!

Look, just like new!

I've done it, father!

Done what, Clemencia?

Saying sorry to Olga.

Did you really mean it?

We're on good terms again,

Olga ha forgiven me!

Well, I'm glad it turned out alright.

Maybe now God will smile upon you,

and Adrian will come back and forgive you too.

I hope so!

You can't do this to me!

You can't take my boy away!

He's my son too!

You can't take him away no matter what you do!

I might.

No one can take a child from his mother. No one!

A mother who plays the part
and stays by his side, no.

But a mother that abandons him to-

I've never abandoned him!

That boy was alone when he got sick!

And while that boy was burning up in fever,

the great actress was on stage kissing strangers!

How could I know he got sick!?

And don't try to paint me as a tramp,

there's nothing wrong with what I do!

It is to me.

Lies! If it was someone else, you'd respect her,

but when it's Miguelita, you flip out!

You know what, think whatever you want.

You have to renounce theater.

Do you think my dad will let her stay?

There's a chance he might.

I saw her cry!

She's sad because she won't see me anymore!

If that's what your heart tells you to do,

then do it, my dear!

I know she'll behave now!

I have a good feeling about this,

but your grandma Onelia has to show
that she has changed!

She must understand she has hurt others,

and she has to be truly sorry in order to change

and have people believe her!

I'll provide for you so
you won't have to work ever again!

I don't want anything from you!

You're gonna take it, want it or not.

We'll see about that!

Marichuy, you'll stay home with our son,

instead of going there to bare it all-

Do you really care for the boy?

Of course!

Liar! You're just jealous of every man

that comes in contact with me!

Yes! Just so you know, I really am jealous!

Then I have to break it to you,

you won't get anything from threatening me!

I'll keep performing every night,

and this play I'm rehearsing? It's next in line.

I'll play my role, no matter what!

Your only role is that of a mother!

I take care of my son just fine,

I don't need you to tell me how to raise him!

I bet you don't give that baby enough of your time.

Because you decide to focus on your plays, I can-

You ain't doing nothing! You won't take my son away!

Don't you dare, you'll regret it!

I can and I will!

I'll start processing the documents
if you don't do what I say!

You'll have to kill me first!

Otherwise, I will kill you!

Give me that.

I hate you, you miserable bastard!

Bravo! Excellent scene!

I hope this is your last performance.

You've been warned. I think you know
what's best for you.

Dedication to your son, or to acting.

Thank you, Balbina.

So, about your wedding gift...

Oh, don't worry.

We'll have a list up
on a few department stores.

Oh, then set aside some silverware on my name.

That'll be my gift.

Stop kidding around! Silverware is too expensive!

It's not like I'll go bankrupt over buying that!

Oh, Juan Miguel!

I'm glad you're here.

Please, come with me.

Where?

You too, Rocío.

What happened, Juan?

I need to witnesses, and you'll do.

Two witnesses? What for?

To register my son.

I'll recognise him legally.

I'll go fetch the documents I need,

then we'll head for the registry.

He's ok now, but you have no idea
how sick he was!

Was it a high fever?

Oh yeah, but his father...

Um, I mean, Dr. San Roman...

Why are you correcting yourself?

He is the father of this child!

Yeah, I know, but Marichuy doesn't
want me to say so.

Father! Good thing you're here!

I came to visit your little angel.

I heard he was sick.

Father... Juan Miguel wants to take him away!

What!?

Juan Miguel wants to take him away!

Juan Miguel went to the theater,

he saw the rehearsal,

he told me I must quit acting or
he'll take away my baby!

Ridiculous!

I refuse to believe it!

You think I'm lying!?

No, Maria de Jesus, that's not what I meant.

I just can't believe it.

Well, he did.

He says he can accuse me of neglecting my baby

because of my job at the theater.

He said what?

That's a lie bigger than a cathedral!

You dote on your son,

everything you did was for him!

So he really did threaten you?

With getting the law involved, father.

Do you see why I didn't want him
to find out about my son?

I knew this would happen!

Don't despair.

Juan Miguel is probably trying to scare you.

He wants you to do what he says,
but I doubt he'll follow up on his threats.

I can't get too confident, I will not stop working!

I won't go live in his house, living off his money,

while he goes and marries some other broad!

Well, that's done for.

I'm not so sure that was the right thing to do...

What, giving my name to my son? Why not?

You did that because you had a fight with Marichuy.

They told you at the registry.

The document is temporary,

you have to take the baby there
when he's in good health.

It's required so that-

At the very least it's official,

I've had a son with Maria de Jesus.

And he was conceived during our marriage.

A marriage that was nulled due to
unusual circumstances.

Now, there's going to be an investigation

until it's proven that the baby is mine,
and I have rights over him.

It's just that-

Rocío, please understand.

Marichuy is capable of taking my son far away

just so I never get to see him again.

She's afraid you'll take the baby away!

I never thought about taking him away!

But my son has to bear my last name
and be under my care.

I know you wouldn't do it.

But you told her you would!

That's exactly what you shouldn't have done.

Yes, I went to the theater to calm her down.

But she was right to call me out on my jealousy.

I'll admit I got mad seeing her kiss that guy!

You're just being silly now.

Being jealous of an actor!

They were just rehearsing a play!

I... You know I love Marichuy a lot.

I know, and that's my point.

You're such a goof!

I love her so much...

The good news is, Olga and Clemencia
finally reconciled.

The best thing Clemencia did
was say she was sorry.

Come on now, Maria de Jesus.

Forget about San Roman and take it easy.

I can't, father.

Juan Miguel is taking away my son!

What could I do?

No court will take your son away, that's nuts!

When Juan Miguel said he could,
he must be able to back it up.

What if he does? I'll die on the spot if he does!

I'll baptize him. That's it!

I'll get him baptized and have him
recognized as MY son.

And whose last name will he have?

Mine, of course!

Your last name is Velarde,

for the judge who is your one and only father!

Not that one! The one they gave me
at the orphanage.

What are you gonna tell the kid

when he grows up and asks about his father?

You'll tell him he was an orphan?

That you don't know who his father is?

That his father left him and doesn't want
anything to do with him?

I didn't mean to overhear, Juan Miguel.

I hope it's alright with you.

You love Marichuy, and you can't marry me
while you love her, right?

You can say it to my face, without any shame.

You had a child with her, you love her...

What am I in your life, then?

No one, Juan Miguel. That's how it is.

No one.

I don't know what to tell you, Blanca.

The truth. I want the truth!

The truth hurts, sometimes. It benefits no one.

What's the point?

Would a lie be much better?

Have I ever lied to you?

No, never.

Like you've never said you loved me.

I told you, my feelings towards you

and my feelings towards Marichuy
are completely different.

There is no point of comparison.

I told you we needed each other.

There's a fondness, an understanding,

and the sincere desire to achieve a
little happiness.

But, do you think that's enough?

For me, it is.

But you don't love me. You love her.

Can't you forget what you just heard?

If you can't, you'll hurt us both.

It's just that...

If you love her so much,
why would settle for me?

Settle? That's not the right word, Blanca.

I've got everthing you give to me!

I wish to fill my life with your kindness!

It's like taking a flower into a pot
until it dries up.

Do you understand how I feel?

It's just, that flower you mentioned is not dried up.

It has strong branches, it's roots dig deep.

It still dies in the end.

The hand that tended to it
will leave due to it's thorns.

Juan Miguel... Are you sure?

That Marichuy doesn't love you?

Please, help me!

I need your help to baptize my baby!

And with the registry of the name
I had at the orphanage.

The baptism is no problem.

Just set a date, and we're done.

I could baptize him right now, if you wanted.

But the registry will be a bigger issue.

If you want to make it official,

you have to go there with the baby and his father!

No, that won't do! I'll register as a single mother,

and I'll give him my last name!

No papers say I'm the daughter of
Mrs. Cecilia or Judge Velarde!

Alright! I'll try to help you with this,

but I can't guarantee I succeed.

Hurry up, then!

Everything's gonna be fine, you'll see.

You just gotta be willing to help!

You already know I've always done
everything you've asked me to do!

So don't go on that "gotta be willing" nonsense!

What I'm telling you is that
this isn't going to be easy.

We're talking about registering your
son with the government!

Alright then, hurry up!

I know you can do it! The sooner the better!

Alright, Maria de Jesus.

Can you get back to me as soon
as you work it out, please?

I'll keep you updated.

One for the road.

Take them all if you want!

Bye-bye.

You don't need to follow me.

Where's father Anselmo?

He just left.

He went to find out how to
register and baptize my baby for real.

Marichuy loved me until not too long ago.

But it looks like she doesn't love me anymore.

And why do you say that?

Not too long ago, she wanted
to reunite with me.

She came here, but she found out my
first wife was found alive.

When I was accused of her murder, she came back.

But by then-

I arrived in your life.

I want you to know it's not your fault.

Somewhere along my life, I lost Marichuy's love.

When she said she hated me.

Because of the baby?

Our last arguement was particularly heated.

Marichuy has changed a lot.

Maybe it's Omar's influence.

Omar?

Yes, she was going to marry him.

She saw something in him.

And now he's here, pursuing her.

Trying to win her over, and I think he'll do it.

Does that hurt you?

Blanca, please...

If Marichuy took you back

-everything would be different
-Why talk about it?

Why bring it up if it won't happen?

I don't want to get in the way
of your happiness.

You don't have to feel chained to me.

You're free to go for Marichuy. To try-

That's enough, Blanca.

I know she's the love of your life,

you had a son, I understand-

Stop it, Blanca. Please.

But it's the truth!

I told you that Marichuy hates me now.

If I went to the registry, is because I had to.

I won't give up on my son!

He's the only thing that exists
between Marichuy and me.

Funny you'd request that, father.

Why? A single mother should be
able to register her child, right?

It's not that, it's that the father came,

he left a statement in which he
recognizes the child,

and that he should bear the San Roman name.

Isnt' that right?

Yes, but... I can't believe he'd done that.

He came here with two witnesses,

his sister, Rocío San Roman,

and doctor Eduardo Garibay.

And how did it turn out?

He showed me the marriage records,

where he proved his paternity.

I gave him a document

thet states he is the father of the child,

but to register the boy,
he has to come here with the mother.

Because the mother was married, not single,

and if she accepts Dr. San Roman
as the legitimate father,

then the child is registered.

Otherwise, we'd have to decide

which other legal way there is to register him.

But one thing is clear,

that boy's last name is San Roman.
