My love, i'm glad you arrived. How are you?

Have you settled in? Yes, yes, everything's in order.

And what happened to valeria that she arrived with that face? She asked me for permission to train and i refused.

Is she still having that idea in her head? And i don't think it will go away.

I can't put her in danger. If something happens to her, i wouldn't forgive myself.

No, no, no, my love, of course not, it's crazy. And why don't you leave it to me?

I think that among women we understand each other better. - thanks, kassandra, thanks.

- see? That's why i tell you it's important that i'm here close to the boys.

I can't have dinner with your family tonight. Tell them i got a lot of work at the workshop.

- and why the lie? - i don't lie.

I really have several things to check. Well, if you say so.

It's not like you love dinners with my family. But you know what?

Oh, i'm not going either. I don't feel like seeing veronica, to be honest.

You're always fighting with your sister. But anyway, i'm going to the workshop, because if not, i'll never finish, okay?

Hey, marcos. Are you okay?

You seem strange. Yes, what happened is i ran into ivan's wife at the bar.

Ex-wife. Well, yes, yes, yes, yes, ex.

But that's not what she'd want, huh? Because she's dying to get back with ivan.

- did he tell you? - yes, yes, yes, she opened up and talked for hours.

And i felt a little sorry for her. Because, imagine, she came all the way from spain to be with a guy who doesn't want to be with her.

Yes, poor thing. Plus, add to that she suspects that ivan likes another woman.

- and you know what i think? - what?

That other woman is you. Ivan is crazy about you.

Man, when i saw romina standing there in the middle of the living room i wanted to die. I thought she was going to shout my name and that everything was going to fall apart.

Thank god she went along with it. Yes, but she thinks i'm infiltrated in that house because of flores, because of the note.

Now i'm also deceiving my sister. I've become the queen of lies.

Romina is going to hate me. Oh, my dear, i think it's time you sat down and talked to your sister and told her everything.

Are you serious? Romina adores my dad.

If she finds out that my dad ripped my newborn daughter from my arms and gave her up for adoption, i'm going to break my family, aunt chelo. So you'd rather romina hate you?

Yes. The worst of me before...

With my dad. - oh, honey.

- hello, my love. Thanks for asking.

Caught your cousin at the mansion, and what did you do? Was going to fall apart right there.

- well, you should have told them - oh, how? Saw me on the dance floor, that i'm his cousin, oh, god, oh, god.

Okay, calm down. Maybe that helps me when i have to tell the whole truth.

Oh, my naye. I feel so bad for involving you too.

Even you got dragged into it and telling big lies because of me. Navarrito is crazy about you.

And there you are, "hee hee, ho ho, ha ha. " didn't i ask you to stay away from him?

Yes, but we work together. And you shouldn't distrust me.

No, i don't doubt you. But realize, love.

Iván sees you and he's drooling. Look how he talks to you, how he tries to please you.

Oh, i don't think it's quite like that. No, don't be naive, please.

It's the truth. And after what olga told me, it's even worse.

Look. I'm going to make it very simple for you, okay?

If that idiot doesn't put a stop to it and neither do you, then, look, i'm going to give him a good hit right here. - here.

- no, you're not going to do any of that. I'm going to talk to him.

- okay. - are you going to put a stop to him?

Yes. I'm going to be very clear.

Do you trust me? Yes.

Yes, yes, i trust you. Thank you, my love.

Well, i'm going to the workshop. I love you.

I love you. Joaquín, it's perfect.

Well, i promised you we would put it back together. And you'll see that this one will turn out much better than the previous one.

Look, i already have everything organized. Let's see.

How? Let's see.

That's right, let's see. - look.

- go ahead. Mysterious disappearances, abductions and i even grew them of what by colors.

Great, you made a lot of progress. Yes, consuelo helped me a lot.

She helped me make a diary with clues and from there we're noting down the progress of the investigation. Just like if we were journalists.

It's just that consuelo is... She's a great woman.

- yes. - uh-huh.

- shall i pass it to you? - yes.

Here it is. Look, this goes here.

Where my parents' plane disappeared. It's...

The heart of everything. Very good.

- shall we put the other one? - let's see.

Very good. We put this...

There. Excellent.

And now? - can i tell you something?

- yes. I think it's perfect that...

You look for answers in a map, or by looking at the stars, dani. But i need you to promise me something.

Don't let that search make you forget what you have. Your brothers, your family, the people who love you and who are with you every day.

I don't forget. I know.

But sometimes, when you look so far, you don't see what's close. And i want you to have both feet firmly on the ground.

So that when you look at the sky your whole soul doesn't go up there. - shall we continue?

- yes. - where are the scissors?

- down there. Here it is, very good.

Okay. Do you have a minute to talk?

I don't know. Ask my godfather if i can talk to you, because he might not give me permission.

Oh, well, don't take it that way. Believe me, everything joaquín does is for your own good.

- oh, yes, yes, of course. And he can't do the basic thing, like trusting me.

And do you trust me? I'd like us to be friends.

Can you help me convince him to let me train? Oh, i see.

I thought you were like this because of something else, not because of the motorcycle thing. What else could make me so down and upset?

Woman stuff. Look, i know you think i don't understand you, but, well, vale, i was your age once too.

And i remember how suddenly things with boys were complicated. And that i also felt like it was the end of the world when we fought.

- and who told you that i fought with a guy? Oh, but it's obvious in your eyes that a boy has you down.

Come on, why don't you tell me who it is? You'd better tell me, like, as friends.

Do you really think i'm that stupid? - don't talk to me like that.

- no, no, no. Tell my godfather that he doesn't need to send a messenger, that he should come and ask me to my face what he needs to know.

Joaquín has nothing to do with this. It was my idea, i really thought we could be friends.

Forgive me, but i don't trust you. I already have someone i can talk to.

Someone who doesn't approach me on assignment. Who doesn't underestimate me.

And that person isn't you, kassandra. That person is consuelo.

So if you're going to keep coming with your little face of "i want to be your best friend", don't bother. Because that's not going to work with me.

Facundo. Come in, come in.

Hello. Sorry, you didn't tell me you were coming.

- i have a... - family dinner?

Yes, i know. Your dad invited me.

My father-in-law is delighted with me. It seems that despite all the mistakes of the past, he genuinely cares about your happiness.

Well, it's good you came, honestly. I need your support more than ever.

I'm in a huge mess. Alright, tell me what you need.

That's what i'm your boyfriend for. To take care of you, to help you when you need me.

Does it have to do with the magazine? No, that's already been resolved.

As incredible as it seems, flores gave me another chance. Well, i'm glad.

But it's not about luck, verónica. Flores is a smart guy.

He couldn't just let his best journalist go like that. So, what's the new problem?

That my family could fall apart at any moment. What is all this?

Welcome. Let's see, what's wrong with you?

- because this... - don't say anything.

It's just a small gift. It's not much, but i needed to thank you.

For being there. For putting up with me in the worst moments, for the mess with borja.

And for how you've taken care of my daughter, that's very important to me. You don't have to thank me for majo, she's my daughter.

Look, come. Come, sit down.

Make yourself comfortable. What do you think?

Do you want a whiskey? Or shall we uncork the champagne?

I hope all this can be returned. What?

But it's a gift for you. For our house.

Our? No, olga, you're very wrong.

Hey! But what?

But what are you doing? What's wrong with you?

What do you mean, what's wrong with me? All of this must have cost you a fortune.

Where did you get that money? Huh?

Well, from your sock drawer. What?

You took it without asking my permission? Well, but it's nothing, man.

I'm going to give it all back to you, every last cent. Oh, really?

What? And that money is going to fall from the sky, olga?

Because i know that compensation doesn't exist. It's fake.

The only real thing here is the debt we have with joaquín for your bail. Oh, please, let's not talk about debts now.

I wanted to give you a surprise. - come on.

- a displeasure, olga. That's what you've given me since you arrived from madrid.

Why did you come to mexico, huh? To ruin my life?

No, of course not. I came to be close to majo.

And because i want to be with you again. Well, now that diego has calmed down, it's valeria's turn to explode.

As if they were taking turns. Thank you.

Well, with kids, it's like that. And wait until daniela and melisa grow up a bit more.

Well, but the most important thing is that we're together, my love. And that we're tackling everything as a team.

But you know what? I am worried about valeria's attitude.

And i think the one who needs to see it is consuelo. Why do you say that?

Because consuelo doesn't just clean and that's it. Lately, she's been all over valeria, talking to her like...

Like she's her confidante. And who knows what ideas she's putting in her head.

Consuelo only gives them affection, kassandra. And, honestly, we don't have enough of it.

After all they've lost, any gesture of tenderness does them a lot of good. - well, my love...

- i am very grateful to them for that, in fact. - yes, i know.

But i'm also there for them, you know? Well, i can be a firm and constant guide, a surrogate mother who takes care of them hand in hand with you.

As the great guardian you are, because you have done a magnificent job, don't deny it. Thank you.

It's just incredible how kids change your life. You know?

At times i see myself as a dad. Well, it's logical, with four kids here in the house under your care.

Yes, i understand, but yes, this goes beyond that. Despite all the conflicts i might have with them, i'm starting to think like...

Like a father. And i don't know, i'm starting to imagine myself with a baby in my arms.

Are you serious, joaquín navarro? Yes.

I think i'd like to be a dad. You, and no one but you, and you, and all of us around you never mattered, right?

Of course you matter to me, man. How could you not matter to me?

You and majo are my priority. And number two, i want us to be a family again.

- you talk as if we ever were, and no, olga, we were never a family. Not even you and i were a couple.

But because we were kids, my love. Now it's different.

Now we're adults and we could try it differently. Something...

Something more mature, more beautiful. Come on, what do you say?

Yes? The further away, the better.

Of course, because you're with another woman. There's someone else in your life.

Oh, everything comes down to that for you. You're so egocentric that you think that if i'm not with you, it's because i'm with someone else, right?

- ha! Deny it!

Deny it, iván, but looking me in the eyes! It doesn't surprise me at all that you look at me like that.

I'm even surprised myself by what i'm telling you. No, i'm sorry, my love.

I really can't believe it. Yes, yes, i understand, i understand.

But it's true that i never wanted a family, children, diapers. I never wanted that for myself.

But so many things changed all at once in my life. Hold on, but i want us to be clear about this.

What you're telling me is that you'd like you and me to have a child now? No, no, no.

I didn't say that, i'm just sharing with you things that are going through my head. You really seem like a different person, joaquín.

Puede ser. ¿y qué pasa?

¿te asusta? No, no, no, no, no es eso.

Lo que pasa es que no... No me gustaría ilusionarme, pero me encantaría.

Quizás estamos locos por pensar así, pero el estar rodeado de cuatro chicos maravillosos me movió todo y me despertaron estas ganas de convertirme algún día en papá. A mí me parece perfecto que romina crea que estás infiltrada con los de miranda por un reportaje.

Pues antes que todo eres periodista. Y eso lo tiene que entender aunque no esté de acuerdo.

Está muy enojada conmigo. Look, the important thing is that you don't forget that you are in that house for a purpose.

They took your son from you, they took your daughter from you. She thinks her mother abandoned her.

Your task is to make valeria know the truth and understand that you are innocent in this story. It always does me good to talk to you.

Thanks for that. We're going to be okay.

The only thing i see as a little complicated is justifying that you two pretended not to know each other. It's just that everything is very tangled.

Has he talked to you about veronica, the journalist who works with flores? No.

Well, when you do it, act surprised. You tell him he's your relative, that there's no connection because you haven't spoken in a long time.

No, no, no, i don't want any more lies. Joaquín will suspect sooner or later.

Everything points to verónica, he's going to realize, he's going to find me out. Look, let's calm down and then we'll think.

Your family has arrived. Good evening, my daughter.

Good evening. Don aurelio, it's good to see you.

It's good that you were able to come after all. I invited him, my daughter, because your boyfriend is practically family now.

Thank you very much. I know there's another woman.

And no matter how much your colleagues at work cover for you, you can't fool me, iván, you can't fool me, man. Are you talking about your co-workers, huh?

- about marcos. - what?

Well, i ran into him at the bar. And well, i tried to get him to loosen his tongue, but no, he stayed very quiet.

He didn't want to tell me your girlfriend's name, man. It seems he has him very loyal, huh?

What did you tell marcos, huh? Well, that's it, i asked him if you were with someone.

You're crazy, olga. How could you think of doing that?

Well, because i'm a desperate woman, man, capable of doing anything. - well, and a desperate man is also capable of doing anything.

Oh, really? Like what?

You're leaving. Tonight you're leaving this house.

It's just that if they don't tell me they don't like mustard, i can't guess. Those things should be mentioned when you take the order.

Hey, aunt, you can't talk to customers like that. If your mother sees you, she'll kill you.

Oh, and what do i care? Anyway, for her, i do everything wrong.

And she's right. What's wrong?

You seem more distressed than usual, huh? Come on, tell me what's wrong.

I'm late, majo. And i'm very scared that i might be pregnant.

I wasn't going to come, you know? Because i also have my own problems, but i can't hold back.

We need to talk because what you're doing is very wrong, verónica. What is verónica doing that you find so wrong, daughter?

Dad. Can either of you explain it to me?

That's it, olga. So, you're going to kick me out for asking the mechanic if he had a girlfriend.

Come on, man. I can't believe it.

That was the last straw, olga. I'm asking you to leave to correct my first mistake, which was letting you into this house.

Look, i'm leaving, okay? Exactly, that's the idea.

You can't kick me out onto the street, man. Not me, i'm your daughter's mother.

- your only daughter. - what is that supposed to be, huh?

An attempt to make me feel guilty? You can't be so cruel, iván.

Look how i can. No, iván!

Don't leave me out here, it's very cold! Iván!

Iván, open up! Open up!

Open up, please! No, iván!

Iván! But where am i going to go?

Iván! Iván, open up!

I'm cold, man! Iván!

Iván! Iván, please, open up!

Come on! Don't make me lose my patience.

Now tell me what you did wrong, veronica. You're in my house.

Please, don't talk to me like that. It's not that serious, mr.

Aurelio. What happened is that veronica was thinking of quitting the magazine because she doesn't agree with an article her boss has been pressuring her to write.

Let's see, what does that have to do with romina? Well, that report could affect the owner of the company where we work.

And that's why romina got upset with me. Because she thought i wanted to harm her boss.

For an article that could help me to advance in my career, but... - they are good people, veronica...

- i know, romina, believe me, i know. And precisely for that reason i want to control things.

And manage the narrative of things. So that flores doesn't affect that family anymore.

Veronica's boss is a... An unscrupulous man, don aurelio.

Yes, the guy is awful, dad. And i think you're doing very well to resign.

I agree. I've always said you're wasting your time on that crappy magazine.

I'm sure you can get something much better, my dear. So, my sister gets angry and tightens the pipe with a monkey wrench and the water shoots out and my niece yelled at her: "mom, mom, turn off the water.

" and my sister choking on the water and my niece very angry: "turn off the water flow! " and i run out and turn it off.

And what do i say to her? "should've said so sooner?

" - uh-huh. - oh, and she looks at me with such eyes.

- kid. - the good thing is these are moments you'll never forget.

- my sister even less. - no, no, of course.

The water got into her cerebellum. Oh, dear friend, i'm glad you're back.

And let me tell you that your daughter was an angel. I have a feeling i'll be asking you to babysit more often.

Yes. But it was time to come back.

I'm looking into the transfer of the position. Oh, yes.

Also, it's the anniversary of your paco, right? Yes.

And i know it's silly, but i felt bad not going to put his flowers and spending some time with him. Of course, almita.

It's always important to remember our loved ones. Yes.

Valeria, may i come in? Yes.

Excuse me. Do you want to come down for dinner?

I'm not hungry. Are you still angry?

Do you want to talk? No.

I just want to understand why you refuse to support me. Why can't you trust me?

I'm already 17. I'm not a child.

I already explained it to you. As long as you're under my responsibility, i'm going to keep taking care of you.

I wouldn't forgive myself if something happened to you. You don't know how much i regret supporting you to be our guardian.

Valeria, please. I understand your anger, but you have to...

No, you don't understand anything. Because if you really listened to me, you wouldn't keep forbidding me to run when you know it's the only thing that makes me happy.

I just can't say yes to everything, because i'd be doing you harm. You know i adore you, please.

And how do you know what's good for me and what's not? You don't even know what to do, dad.

Maybe i don't know, but i'm learning. I'm here to protect you, to take care of you.

So scream, stomp your feet, get angry and you can do whatever you want, but these are the rules and you're going to respect them. But only until i'm of age.

As long as you're under my charge, that's how it will be. Perfect, perfect, that's how it's going to be.

But i'm warning you, joaquín. Forget about the valeria who was all smiles, the one who supported you, because that valeria is gone.

Now, get out of my room! Why did you fight with vale?

What's happening, joaquín? Nothing serious is happening.

We just had a disagreement. Sometimes the people who love each other the most argue.

Like you two, i found you fighting the other day. Remember?

But the important thing is that we are a family, that we love each other very much. And there's always an opportunity to talk and resolve things.

Are you two still fighting? No, not anymore, well, she still doesn't lend me her things.

Because i might break them, meli. How about we let your sister calm down, and tomorrow we give her a big, strong hug as a team?

Does that sound good? - yes.

- come, love, come, my darling. - daughter.

- hello. - hello.

- are you hungry? I just made a vegan stir-fry that you'll love.

No, thank you. - are you okay?

Did something happen? - yes, yes.

Is my mother here? I need to talk to her.

Your mom? Yes, is she home?

No, she's not. It's just you and me.

Do you want to tell me something? No, i can't.

It's a women's topic. I just can't believe it.

The only time i need my mother and she's not here. I'm very worried about my son, marcos.

Eleazar is not well. I heard he was mugged.

I'm so sorry, baby. No, no, i'm not talking about that.

No, thank god the mugging wasn't serious. But my son was very upset about the race.

Look, i know deep down he knows that what he did wasn't right. But his dad is on his back all day long, demanding him to be the best, pressuring him.

And i swear that no matter how much i try to advise him, my son doesn't listen to me. I don't know, maybe you could talk to him.

I don't know, get him to focus a bit. I swear he's a good kid.

Hey, i know. I'll try, okay?

I promise. Yes, i'm coming.

Sorry, duty calls. - thank you, marcos.

- no, don't mention it. - is there anything else i can get you?

- nothing else. This is fine.

Thank you. You're welcome.

Excuse me. Oh, finally a friendly face.

I came to look for my daughter. Is she around here?

No, no, i think she already left. What's wrong?

Iván kicked me out. He threw me out on the street.

My brother just sent me a message apologizing to everyone for not being able to make it to dinner. He went to give the last rites to a sick person, but it seems that the guy is resisting crossing over to the other side.

- oh, dad. - don't say that.

Why didn't your husband come, daughter? It's strange to see you alone.

Oh, he also asked me to apologize to everyone for him. He said he had a lot of work at the workshop and...

Did he tell you that? How strange.

I'm the workshop manager, and when i left, things were quite calm, there wasn't that much work. Let's see.

Are marcos and you still having your relationship crisis? Are you having problems with marcos, romina?

No, no, no, no. Not at all.

Of course we have our rough patches, like any couple, but nothing more. Maybe marcos found out i was going to be here and that's why he didn't come.

Since things were very tense between us after the race. Yes, yes, it must have been because of that.

I'm going to tell you what you two are missing, daughter. A child.

That will change your lives. It will put you in the same direction.

How are you doing with that, my dear? Because i can't wait to be a grandfather and hold a grandchild in my arms.

Well, we're still trying, dad. Marcos has to get some tests done, but well, so many things have happened that...

That we haven't brought up the topic again. Oh, well, talk about it, my dear.

Don't waste any more time. I mean, the way things are going, verónica and facundo will get married first and she'll give me a grandchild before you do.

I need to breathe. Are you okay?

No, no, no, leave her. I'll go.

To no one's surprise, you had to get mad at me for everything i say. It's not anger.

It's not anger, it's pain. - pain?

- it's a deep pain. To hear you say that you can't wait to become a grandfather when you already are one.

Because you have a granddaughter, dad, my daughter. Why do you insist on clinging to the past?

Why, veronica? Instead of starting to build a family.

Inside, you have a good man who wants to be by your side, who loves you, veronica. With whom you can have all the children you want.

Try to be happy for once in your life, daughter. You will never, ever understand the magnitude of the damage you caused me, right?

There are wounds that never close. That bleed forever because they cannot be forgotten.

You already found that girl, veronica. You told me you saw her well.

She has a family that loves her. Who gave her everything that we couldn't have given her.

Even if she grew up in luxury, i am her mother. It worries me when i hear you talk like that.

You assured me that you wouldn't approach that girl. Don't be selfish.

Don't break everything for that girl. Don't ruin her life, veronica.

No, don't worry. Unlike you, i would be incapable of doing that to my daughter.

Just seeing her from afar, knowing she's well, that's enough for me. Swear it to me.

Swear to me that you won't go near her. I don't have to swear anything to you.

But i am going to ask you, please, not to repeat that you care about my happiness. Because when you ripped my baby from my arms, you, you, turned me into the most unhappy woman in this world.

And don't bother coming back, please. Dinner is already over.

I'll make your excuses to romina. The married man again.

What do i do? Do i answer or let him suffer a little more?

Isaura, good evening, it's aurelio. Please note that i've been calling you, but i haven't had any luck finding you.

Come in. Chelo.

Sorry, i saw your light on and... Well, i came to see if you needed anything.

Since when have you been so attentive with me, aurelio? Oh, aren't you just bored and have nothing to do?

Don't tell me that fancy lady didn't invite you to dinner again. It's actually strange.

Isaura seems to be out of touch. She doesn't answer my calls anymore.

Oh, aurelio. Those high-society women treat men like designer handbags.

They show one off, use it a little, and then swap it for another, newer one. On the other hand, here, in our world, what you love, you mend it, you take care of it, and it lasts you a lifetime.

Look, if she's not answering you anymore, then don't insist, right? It's that simple, and that's it.

And how was dinner with your daughters? As always.

Verónica and i ended up arguing. Something is bothering me, chelo.

I saw romina very angry with her. Do you know what fights they're having?

- no. - no?

But you know very well what your daughters and you need. Yes, to sit down, to speak the truth.

What for, chelo? So romina hates me too?

No. I'm just telling you something.

If veronica poisons her sister against me, i will never forgive her. I'm exhausted.

Come to bed, my love. - huh?

- come. Thank you.

Valeria's words hurt me a lot. Maybe i'm doing wrong and i should let her train.

Oh, my love. But what if she gets into an accident?

You already saw her fall off the motorcycle. Luis almost lost a leg and...

Then there are riders who die on the track. If something were to happen to her, you wouldn't forgive yourself.

- you know? - yes, yes.

But sometimes i feel like i'm wrong. I want to be a good guardian for them.

Guide them, protect them, but i ended up hurting valeria. Oh, don't say that.

Look, after they lost their parents, you are the best thing that has happened to them. I feel very disturbed.

Because once again i just lied to my dad, to romina. I'm like a snowball that grows and grows and sweeps everything away.

- no, no, come on, no beautiful. You are not a snowball that goes around sweeping everything away.

You... You are sunshine.

You are a desperate mother looking to find the daughter they took from her. And i feel terrible.

And i don't recognize myself. Because i like frank people, honest people.

And i like you, i admire you more every day. Because that strength, that dedication, makes me admire you more every day.

Kassandra. Wait, kassandra, wait.

I need you, my love. No, no, no, no.

Wait for me, wait for me, wait for me, wait for me. Wait for me a second.

I can't. I really can't.

Why not, joaquín? No, facundo.

No, not right now. Why not?

Why don't you touch me? Why can't you make love to me?

Tell me. Why not?
