I love making love to you, valeria. You're crazy in bed.

Same here. Since i met you my life changed.

Only you give me what i need. And i would keep giving it to you, my love.

The best thing that could have happened to me is that they recommended that mechanic shop to me. Because that's where i met you.

You took your car in for service. And i give you service.

I don't lack anything with you. The truth is you treat me very well.

Wait. Wait.

I'm going to check the time. Don't tell me you have to leave already.

Not yet. Kiss me, jonathan.

I want to feel your kisses, your caresses. My love, i was calling you on your cell phone and you don't answer my calls.

I was very worried. Yes, i'm sorry.

My battery died. Besides, it was a terrible day at the office.

It's the end of the month, there was an audit. And the accountant asked me to help him with the documentation.

Why didn't you call me from the office? I couldn't either.

I was very busy, understand me. But i'm here now.

Tell me, what happened? And the children?

They fell asleep, i left early and picked them up from their classes of ballet and soccer, i won't be able to tomorrow. Don't worry, i'm watching over them.

Today was a special case. I'm going to sleep.

I'm dead. Aren't you going to have dinner?

We prepared molletes for you. We left them on the table.

I'm not hungry. I'll have them for breakfast tomorrow.

Are you coming to bed? - yes, i'll be there in a minute.

- hello, mommy. - hello, my loves, good morning.

Sit down for breakfast, please. - hello, mommy.

- hello, my love. Are you going to take me to my ballet class today?

I want you to see my new choreography. Yes, i'm going to take you.

- can you buy my cleats? I need my new ones and it's urgent.

Yes, use the ones you have for now and we'll take you to buy some on the weekend. Yesterday they left me all the dirty dishes, why didn't they wash them?

- dad said he was going to wash them. Well, he didn't and i arrive very tired from work.

Good morning, what are you arguing about? - that you didn't wash the dishes.

- oh, i'm sorry, i forgot, i had to iron the uniforms. You didn't iron them.

It's just that i have so many things that i forgot. Come on, sit down to have breakfast.

I'm going to drink the juice because i have a meeting. I'm going to take the children.

Kids, hurry up, please. - yes, daddy.

Hey, i need a new for the tutu. - ok, ok, ok.

- i need my cleats for soccer for now and not for tomorrow. Good.

We're going to see it, don't worry. I'll solve it.

Valeria... Kids, have breakfast.

In the afternoon i'm going to pay tuition, water, electricity, please, don't forget to pay the children's activities, yes? - no, no, i won't forget.

- thank you. Kids, hurry up, let's go.

Valeria, now you're super late. Did your alarms go off?

- that way i could have slept a little more. Between making breakfast, preparing the lunch for the children and leaving things prepared time goes by very quickly.

Has the boss asked for me yet? - not yet.

He went into a meeting, but he'll soon ask you for the reports for the audit. - the audit...

Oh... - what's wrong?

- nothing. Well, yes.

Everything is wrong. Sofia, you are my friend and i know you will understand me.

But i'm fed up with my life. Of the routine, of being a wife, mother and doing the same thing every day.

- why do you say that? Did you fight with felipe or what happened?

- no, it's not that. It's just that i think that if this is going to be my life all the time, between going to work, picking up the children, taking care of the house.

No... I suppose being a working woman and mother must be very hard, but felipe helps you.

He is attentive to the children, to you, to your needs. That's the problem.

That he is no longer attentive to me, to my needs. It's been a long time since anything happened between felipe and me.

There is no more emotion. Much less passion.

Well, but you can talk about it, maybe he feels the same. It's normal between the routine, the children...

Sofia, i've already tried. I've tried to make him react and nothing.

But i found someone who encourages me. How?

Do you have a lover? Lower your voice.

Who is it? He's one of the mechanics from the shop where i took my car to get serviced.

Oh, you don't know. He has a great body.

That man... That man takes me to heaven.

Well, the adventure is cool and all, but i hope you don't lose the most for the least, friend. No.

If you knew jonathan, you'd agree with me. But don't worry.

He's just giving me my maintenance. I just hope this situation doesn't get out of hand.

My love, look what i bought. Do you like it?

Yes, it's very pretty. My love.

Wake up. I want to be with you.

Sorry, my love, but i'm sleepy. I'm very tired.

I'll take that away from you. You're always tired.

And i also need you to pay attention to me. Oh, i pay attention to you, but...

Today was a very heavy day. Better...

Better let's go to sleep. My love.

Why don't we leave the kids with your mom this friday? I don't know.

We can get lost out there. We can have a drink.

Rent a hotel room. Yes, yes, we'll see.

My love. Do you like what you see?

Do i like it? Come.

I love it, valeria, you look beautiful. I desire you, jonathan.

Make me yours. I love being with you, valeria.

Why don't we go to cuernavaca? What do you say?

My love, you know my situation. Make up a work trip, something.

I can't. Besides, i had to pay for pato's soccer classes, paula's ballet classes...

- yeah, yeah, don't tell me. I want to spend more time with you and i can't.

You only give me one or two days a week. My love.

I'm dying for these encounters with you. But each time it's harder to escape.

I love you, valeria. I don't want to share you with anyone.

My blood boils to think that you are with your idiot husband. - hey, but nothing happens with him.

Since i'm with you i'm the happiest woman, i have been reborn. If that's the case, then, leave your husband.

Come with me. Leave my husband?

And would my children come with me? No, no, no, leave your husband and your children.

Let him take care of them. I want to travel with you, valeria, that we don't have to hide.

No, i can't leave my family. If you are not capable of making sacrifices for me, for our relationship, there's no point in us being together.

No, my love, my love, don't say that. It's just that everyone comes before me.

Think about it. Come with me.

- mommy. - yes, my love.

- look at the bracelet i made for you. - oh, how pretty.

It's like the one you gave me last week. Yes, i made it for you because i know you like them.

I learned to make them at my school. My love.

Thank you very much. It's very beautiful.

No, leave your husband and your children. Let him take care of them.

I want to travel with you, valeria, that we don't have to hide. Leave my husband?

My children? My children?

But i don't want a life like this anymore. The routine suffocates me.

Between felipe and i there is nothing left. More than habit.

I no longer want to live a life without passion. Without feeling anything more than the weight of the days.

- i'm very thirsty. - oh, and i'm very hungry.

Surely my mom already made lunch. Surely she has the food made, that's why she couldn't go to the park.

- yes. Go wash your hands.

- ok, i'm going to beat you. - no, me.

- my love. My love, we're back.

Felipe, i don't want to be by your side anymore. I left because i need my freedom as a woman, as a wife, and as a mother.

I need to be reborn. She abandoned us.

Valeria, valeria, i need to talk to you. - what are you doing here?

- you left without facing me and you don't even answer my calls. I'm going ahead to the office.

Goodbye, felipe. I already told you.

I need my freedom. And that solves everything?

You left the house to go with another man. Tell me.

- of course i left with another man. One who does make me feel like a woman.

Because between you and me, nothing has happened for a while and you know it very well, but you preferred to avoid it. I'm tired of the routine, of the pretense.

I feel suffocated, empty with you. Well, you should have told me, i...

What? What would you have tried?

You never did anything for us. And you know what?

I realized that i don't love you anymore. That i don't want to be with you.

- why didn't you think about the children? - don't bring the children into this.

They have nothing... - they haven't stopped asking where their mother is, what do i tell them?

I'm going to talk to them. But i'm not going back to you for the children.

They're going to be fine with you. That's how easily you solve things.

I don't recognize you, valeria. - you don't recognize me?

Do you think it's easy to put yourself in my place? To do what i'm doing.

Of course not, felipe. I've made my decision.

And i have the right to be happy. Goodbye.

I told you i would come looking for you, especially if you left without giving explanations. If i had given them, i wouldn't have been able to leave the house.

- are you sure about what you're doing? - are you supporting me or are you taking felipe's side?

Not felipe's side, your children's side. Since when do you care about my children?

Admit that you were overcome by passion for that man... Save your comments.

I shouldn't have told you anything. Sorry, but i really can't support you in this.

Jonathan loves me and i have the right to be happy. Don't be mistaken, valeria, felipe is a good man, the father of your children and you're forgetting that before being a woman, you're a mother.

Sofia, you don't understand anything. You're right.

I don't understand anything. Do you want more quesadillas, my children?

No, thank you, grandma. I'm already super full.

Me too. Let's save some for my mommy for when she arrives.

- mmm. Mom is not coming.

She is a bad mother. But why do you say that, grandma?

Because she abandoned you to go with another man. That's not true, grandma.

My mom would never do that. What is happening?

Grandma says my mom is bad and that she left with another man. - that's not true, is it?

Children, go up to your room. I'll be with you in a moment.

Why did you tell them that? You had no right, i was going to talk to them.

On top of everything, you scold me? They have to know the truth.

I just needed you to help me take care of the children. It wasn't your place to tell them that.

- what i said is true. Besides, i never liked that woman.

And i was right. You see?

She left... Mom, please, leave.

We'll talk another time, okay? Yes, yes, of course i'm leaving.

Of course. Because it angers me to see how you defend the image of that hussy.

I'll come another day to see my grandchildren. She loves them.

She loves them. Then, why did she leave and abandon us?

Grandma said she left with another man. Is that true?

There are things that at your age you won't understand. So, she did leave with another man.

I don't love her anymore. No, no, no, no, paulita, you shouldn't take sides in what happens between your mom and me.

She loves you and will continue to see you. I'm going to make sure you're okay.

I assure you. Are you doing here?

Valeria, i didn't come here to fight with you. You haven't gone to see the children and you haven't paid for their classes either.

That's your responsibility. I haven't been able to, i've been very busy.

I accept that between you and me there is nothing left. But i don't accept that you forget your children.

Pato was sad because you didn't go to see him play. I already told you i couldn't and i haven't been able to pay for their classes either.

I've had many expenses. I imagine that guy is expensive.

You know what? I can't pay anything.

Do it yourself. Afterwards i'm going to see my children.

Valeria, valeria. Valeria!

Hello, felipe. I won't even ask what you're doing here because i can imagine.

How are the children? Sad because they haven't seen valeria.

It seems like she's already disengaged. Even from the expenses.

Force her to take her responsibilities. How?

File a lawsuit against her for child support for her children. Oh, no, of course not.

I can take care of my children. Both parents are equally responsible for their children, ok?

And both must provide support, both men and women. I'm going to look good asking for a monthly payment.

It's not for you. It's for your children and it's their right.

Okay. I...

I have to go, i'll stop by to see the children later. It was nice to see you.

My love, i'm home. I brought some beers to watch the soccer game.

What are you reading? What is that?

It's a lawsuit. Felipe sued me for child support for my children.

My love, what happened? How did it go with the judge?

What was going to happen. The judge ruled in favor of felipe and i have to pay 30 percent of my salary to pay for the support of my children.

That much? What's wrong with him?

That's unfair. It's 15 percent of my salary per child.

Damn it. Well, what's wrong with that imbecile?

Can't he support them or what? I know.

What happens is that that guy wants you to support him. No.

Felipe is not like that. That guy just wants to screw you over.

He's not going to give a single cent to your children. Okay, i don't want to talk about this anymore.

But better... Why don't you invite me to eat something?

And then we'll distract ourselves a little. Of course.

Anything you want, my queen. And let's go to the mall.

To see about my new cell phone. - yes?

- yes. Let's go.

- oh, dad, dad! - sorry, sorry.

I don't know why it got so tangled. I've already told you how.

Dad, my soccer uniform isn't clean. Put it on as it is because we have to go.

I have to take you to soccer, paula to ballet and i have to go to the office. Oh, and when are we going for my tutu to do the swan lake play?

Let's go on the weekend and please, stop driving me crazy. Oh, oh.

I'll open it, i'll open it. Oh, oh, dad.

Hello, pato, how are you? As crazy as my dad.

What? Is there a family crisis or what happened?

My dad, oh, he's pulling my hair horribly. I brought these sweets, but i see you have a mess.

Come here for the sweets. Pato, don't be so presumptuous, please, we have to go now, i have to take them to their activities, run to the office.

Okay, calm down, okay? I'll take care of combing paula's hair with those pulls you're going to make her bald.

Go, go to your work and i'll take care of taking the children. - really?

- yes. I'm going to appreciate it very much.

Seriously, thank you. You're going to be late.

I'm going to put some styling cream to make it easier. Put your things in the suitcase.

We're almost leaving, okay? Let's see.

That's it, princess, very good. There it is.

That's it. I brought you the children.

It's your turn to be with them. Thank you.

Hello, my loves, how are you? Oh...

Give mom a hug. Come on in.

I missed you so much. Mom, i'm going to show you some things that i made at school.

Yes, you can show them to me later. Are we going to stay here?

Yes, i'm going to tell you where you're going to leave your things. No.

Don't worry, i'll come for you on sunday. Behave yourselves.

- yes. - bye, dad.

- bye, daddy. - come on in.

We're going to have a lot of fun. Thank you.

Uh... Okay.

He is jonathan, my partner. Hello.

I'm going to the workshop, i'll see you later. But you said you wouldn't work today.

I thought we could spend it together. Valeria, i'm not going to spend my afternoon babysitting.

I already told you that's not my thing. It was better for you to go see them, not for them to come.

Wow, what an uneven temper he has. Well, it doesn't matter.

I'm going to tell you where you're going to put your things. And how about we go to the movies later?

- yes. - yes?

Okay. Let's go upstairs.

I'll bring it. On the right side.

Go ahead, dear. Thank you.

Thank you so much for coming to help me. They called me from the office that there were setbacks with the shipping of some orders well, first sit down, please.

Thank you. My mom couldn't come, valeria went out and...

Don't worry, okay? I'll stay with them.

Besides, i'm delighted to be with them. I promise it won't be long.

Take it easy, okay? Go, do your things, lest you make a mistake.

- okay. - and, well, i'll stay.

Very well, yes. If you want, call to corroborate.

You know i trust you, i'm leaving. Sofi!

Hello, pau. Hello, how are you?

- good, and you, princess? - good, i wanted you to arrive.

Look, i made you a bracelet. Oh, how beautiful, thank you very much.

Hi, sofi. Let's go to the yard to score some goals.

Yes, we'll go right now. Okay, kids, i'm leaving now, behave yourselves, okay?

- i'll see you later. - bye.

- i love you very much. - bye, daddy.

Take care and behave very, very, very well. Okay, little ones.

Thanks, sofi, i appreciate it very much. Yes.

- let's go. - yes, let's go.

Go, pato. Oh, oh.

My love. When are you going to give me the down payment for the car we saw?

My love, that down payment will have to wait. What do you mean, my love?

We told the agency guy to reserve it for us. We can't tell him to wait any longer.

I know, but i had to pay my children's alimony. What?

You promised me the down payment and you come up with your children's alimony? My love.

Please, understand me. I promise you that next month i'm going to give it to you.

Right now i've had to pay for many things, the maintenance, the rent. Well, yes, but...

Why do you tell me that you'll give me the down payment? Whatever.

I bet on a lioness then. Well, you see, whenever you want i'll teach you how to roar, handsome.

I imagine you must do it incredibly. Beautiful.

Whenever you want. Besides, i love your tattoos.

Well, i'll show you all the ones i have. You look "super sexy".

Like they match your face. Take care.

- be careful, huh? - bye.

Jonathan. Who is that chick?

She was a client from the shop, she offered to bring me. Oh, look, how accommodating.

Well, yes, look at that. She is going to give me the down payment for the car.

I don't want you to see her again. Much less greet her again.

I'll give you the down payment for the car. My love.

I only have eyes for you, baby. You're the only one who drives me crazy.

Come on. Let's go inside, i'm dying to make love to you.

I don't know what's wrong with valeria. She hasn't given the monthly payment for her children.

Oh well, i'm not surprised at all. I thought she wouldn't fail, i call her cell phone, she doesn't answer the calls.

Well, report her. And we'll see if she doesn't pay the pension for her children that way.

Of course not, mom. I'm going to talk to her.

Where are the children? In their room watching a movie.

I'm going to talk to them. Mrs.

Valeria gómez ferreira. Yes?

That's me, what can i do for you? I'm agent jorge guerrero.

You are arrested for failure to fulfill alimony obligations. What?

You'll have to come with us. What are you doing here?

Did you come to reproach me? I didn't report you, my mother did.

Of course. Your mother never liked me.

Even less now. I want to know why you didn't give the pension for your children.

Because i decided to give the down payment for jonathan's car. Jonathan, always jonathan.

You only let yourself be manipulated by him. Look, felipe.

I'm not going to discuss my relationship with jonathan with you. He is my partner.

You have neglected your children for him, until when, valeria? How long are you going to be crazy about him?

No, i'm not crazy. Jonathan loves me.

And i'm going to catch up with the pension. It's not about the pension, it's about your children.

Where is jonathan? Has he come to see you yet?

No. But he will come.

There's your answer. What's wrong, valeria?

Virgin of guadalupe. Between valeria and me there's nothing anymore.

Just help me make her understand that her children need her, that she has to live with them, go to soccer, to ballet, that she listens to them. I don't need her money, virgencita.

I just want her to remain present in my children's lives, that she doesn't forget them. And that she understands that she is a mother before being a woman.

Precious. Good thing you're here, what happened?

You didn't come to see me. My love, you know i don't like those places.

Besides, i was busy, i had a lot of work. I had to talk to ask my mother to pay the debt and be able to leave.

Well, we'll pay it back. You don't understand, jonathan.

I was alone. Hey, i was also alone here taking care of everything.

I paid the electricity, the water and other things, already. I love you.

Forgive me. I missed you so much.

I missed you too. Okay.

I'm going to show you... How much i missed you.

So you take that face off. No!

No, no. - salvation!

- oh, pato. Now we're going to catch you.

No, no, no. Oh!

Tickles. Wait, i'm not in physical condition.

- hello. - daddy!

How are you, precious little ones? And you guys are a bullet, huh?

My mother sent me a message and told me that you arrived and she left you the children. Yes, i wanted to come play with them.

So they're not just watching tv. Excellent idea.

Hey, how about we go for an ice cream? Yes!

One of chocolate, yes? Mmm, that's my favorite flavor.

Mine too. Come on, do you want vanilla, strawberry?

- raspberry? - maybe.

We are going to face in the final with those from the valle school. They are the current champions.

But we are going to beat them. Of course, and you are going to score many goals.

Are you going to come see me play? Of course she's not going to go, she's always busy.

Yes, i'm going to go, pau. See, pau?

She's going to come see me play. She always says she's going to go and she never goes.

Okay, okay, come and eat. Are you staying for lunch, valeria?

Yes, of course, of course. Thank you.

Same. But you sit next to me.

Because later, i'm going to show you a video game that my dad bought me. Very well.

Paulita, please. Just, pay attention, come on.

You haven't asked me how it went with my children. I imagine well.

Pato invited me to his game this weekend. It's the final and i would like you to come with me.

See how you don't care about me, valeria? Have you already forgotten that next weekend we are going to go to cancun?

That's right. I completely forgot.

Well, but we could change the date of the flights. - we could leave on sunday.

- of course not. They charge very expensive surcharges, we are not going to change the flight.

You'll see your son later. Hey, i promised pato.

- i'm going to pay the surcharges. - no, valeria!

It's a simple soccer game. It's not important, you'll see him another day.

Come on, come on, kids. Come on.

That's it. Pato!

That's it and we start, one, two, three. Five, six...

My mom is not coming. She's not going to come again.

Yes, for sure pato is going to score, i'm very sure. - he's going to do well.

- hit the ball. That's weird, i don't see pato warming up.

I saw him, he was there with the other kids. Yes, he was there.

Stay with paula, please. - yes, yes.

- ok, daddy. Hurry up, valeria, we're going to be late.

Valeria. Valeria, come on, now!

I'm not going. Go, i'll catch up later.

Valeria, you're going with me, i'm not kidding. I can't fail my son, he expects me to go.

And i expect you to come with me, you're my partner. I'm going to the game.

I'm not like your ex-husband who let you do whatever you wanted. We're going to cancun, period.

You can't stop me. Oh, can't i?

Let go of my mom! - pato.

- what's up, you dumb kid? Didn't you have your soccer game?

Come on, get out of here. You're not going to talk to my son like that.

- shut up! - leave my mom alone.

What, brat, what? Let him go!

Let go of my son! You're not going to touch my son, you bastard.

I'm going to teach you to respect, you stupid woman. This is my house.

In my house you respect me. It's my house and i'm going to teach you to respect!

I don't want you to ever lay a hand on valeria again! Or you're going to regret it.

- get out! - and keep her!

She's no use to me anymore. I have several like her.

Did you really think you were the only one? Get out of here!

I'm sorry, forgive me. Pato, my love.

Forgive me for exposing you in this way. I love you, mommy, and i'm going to defend you from anyone.

Forgive me, my love. I came for the children to take them for the whole week.

Go ahead. They'll be down in a moment.

Thank you. Felipe, i'm so sorry for what happened between us.

I was a fool to get carried away by jonathan. Now i understand.

But i don't know, maybe, with time, you and i... Could try again.

No, valeria. There can be nothing between you and me anymore.

Because i'm already with someone else. What are you talking about?

I'm with sofía. Sofía?

My friend? Yes, sofía.

I just don't want you to disengage from your children. I want you to be present in their lives.

Mom, mommy, mommy. My love.

I missed you so much. Mommy.

My love. I'm happy to see you again.

And we are too. This was a big surprise for me.

But with time i'll get used to it. My loves.

Forgive me for having neglected you. You are the most important thing.

And i don't want to lose you. I promise you that now you will come before everything in my life.

I don't want to lose you. I love you very much.

And we're going to spend a lot of time together. And we're going to be okay.

- okay? - okay.

I promise you. I love you very much, mommy.

And i love you, my love. I love you very much too.

And i love you. But you know what?

Let's make the most of our time. Shall we go?

- yes! - do you want to go bowling?

- yes! - yes?

Okay. How about we stop for some ice cream first?

Okay. The responsibility for the children, to look after them, and provide for their support, is the responsibility of both parents.

Looking after their safety, their peace of mind, their needs, is a two-person job. Not a one-person job.

But it could happen that some woman gets carried away by a man's passion and forgets about her children to live the adventure. But she must remember that she is a mother...
