WEBVTT 1 00:00:02.040 --> 00:00:15.599 Take your imagination to another level of hot stories. Today we present legacy part 2 00:00:15.599 --> 00:00:23.000 thirteen. Don' t forget to subscribe so you don' t miss any 3 00:00:23.000 --> 00:00:32.280 of the stories. Ultimatum. The next day I stopped late and was alone 4 00:00:32.320 --> 00:00:37.560 in bed. I' m head of what happened the night before, and 5 00:00:37.679 --> 00:00:42.439 I' m smiling at my mischief to interrupt Carola' s date and have 6 00:00:42.439 --> 00:00:45.799 her friend half- hearted. It wasn' t appropriate. I hear her 7 00:00:45.799 --> 00:00:49.359 in the kitchen. I get up and go to the bathroom where I take 8 00:00:49.359 --> 00:00:53.960 a bath and I have seen myself when I get to the kitchen breakfast was 9 00:00:53.960 --> 00:00:58.759 served. The friend had left early in the morning very upset. According to 10 00:00:58.759 --> 00:01:03.640 Carola, don' t worry about her. He' s always taken advantage 11 00:01:03.759 --> 00:01:08.040 of my lonely need to satisfy his whims. We' ve never been great 12 00:01:08.040 --> 00:01:12.040 friends. It' s always been a casual thing. Well, since you 13 00:01:12.120 --> 00:01:18.599 put it that way, let' s forget about her how it' s 14 00:01:18.640 --> 00:01:23.319 all at home. All right, nothing' s changed. Your daughters are 15 00:01:23.359 --> 00:01:27.680 the ones who are desperate. I' ll take care of them when I 16 00:01:27.760 --> 00:01:34.120 arrive and how the meetings with Maru have been so far, silent. She 17 00:01:34.200 --> 00:01:38.079 doesn' t talk to anyone, she comes home eats and leaves Sometimes she 18 00:01:38.200 --> 00:01:44.519 leaves the kids and Marito takes them back home later. That' s a 19 00:01:44.599 --> 00:01:52.680 big step. You think, ask, Incredulous, of course, she' 20 00:01:52.799 --> 00:01:56.200 s suffering an ordeal in her house. I don' t think he wants 21 00:01:56.280 --> 00:02:00.159 to fight all the time. It' s about time I lived in the 22 00:02:00.239 --> 00:02:08.159 flesh that the ordeal that made us suffer seems right to you. He didn 23 00:02:08.199 --> 00:02:15.120 ' t ask Incredulous, yeah, don' t explain yourself. She demanded 24 00:02:15.439 --> 00:02:20.639 what we did to her was extreme and I do know that her attitude has 25 00:02:20.680 --> 00:02:27.280 not been the best, but she is reacting as any woman would. You 26 00:02:27.319 --> 00:02:30.759 yourself recognized last night that you and I are different from Malu and, therefore, 27 00:02:30.800 --> 00:02:38.240 the others. Bad can stand sharing with you with ann once already with 28 00:02:38.360 --> 00:02:45.360 your mother and Maru herself and perhaps someone else within a closed circle. But 29 00:02:45.479 --> 00:02:50.120 you know very well that' s not normal. Maru doesn' t equal 30 00:02:50.199 --> 00:02:54.120 uncle to evil, let alone your mother. I do think that she has 31 00:02:54.199 --> 00:02:59.280 suffered and I feel the great cause of all her suffering, c o n 32 00:02:59.319 --> 00:03:01.560 o clear pria by carrying what she, with her own way of being has 33 00:03:01.680 --> 00:03:07.719 been caused. That' s why I' m going to insist that she 34 00:03:07.719 --> 00:03:10.960 give in a little bit, even though she may never forgive us. You 35 00:03:12.080 --> 00:03:15.479 ' re stubborn as a mule. Well, my mother says so, but 36 00:03:15.599 --> 00:03:21.319 I can' t blame you for anything. You' re kind of right, 37 00:03:21.680 --> 00:03:25.680 just something. Yeah, she' s paying for her own mistakes right 38 00:03:25.680 --> 00:03:31.439 now, the infidelity that so much criticized us, ended up blowing up in 39 00:03:31.439 --> 00:03:35.360 her face and, on that side, I feel like she and I are 40 00:03:35.360 --> 00:03:40.360 even. I won' t allow you anything from now on. I already 41 00:03:40.439 --> 00:03:46.680 paid dearly for my mistakes and apologized twice. And that' s more than 42 00:03:46.680 --> 00:03:51.280 enough. What you have to solve with her is already your business, just 43 00:03:51.719 --> 00:03:59.039 like mom and bad, everyone should take responsibility for her actions. And yes, 44 00:03:59.479 --> 00:04:02.199 she' s not like us and we can' t force her to 45 00:04:02.199 --> 00:04:08.000 be. We cannot insist on turning it into something it will never be. 46 00:04:09.560 --> 00:04:13.919 I could never agree more with you on what you just said. Bad and 47 00:04:14.039 --> 00:04:17.720 your mom know that. I think you should know. It' s not 48 00:04:17.879 --> 00:04:23.800 something that needs to be noticed. It' s common sense. Well, 49 00:04:24.199 --> 00:04:26.879 let' s make them realize the mother- in- law. I can 50 00:04:26.959 --> 00:04:31.079 talk it over with one. She' s going to even though it' 51 00:04:31.240 --> 00:04:36.519 s an imposition on me more than anything, so it' ll be your 52 00:04:36.519 --> 00:04:41.759 turn to insinuate or talk to her. I can do that. I didn 53 00:04:41.800 --> 00:04:46.000 ' t want to talk about what I talked to conni Don' t make 54 00:04:46.079 --> 00:04:49.360 them bother and find another excuse. Or that I know I really came willing 55 00:04:49.439 --> 00:04:55.560 to accept. I was willing to listen to everything they had to tell me, 56 00:04:56.319 --> 00:05:01.680 but with the possibility of negotiating the agreement Carola stayed in Caracas. I 57 00:05:01.800 --> 00:05:05.720 would travel on Saturday for the island and I went to the airport at noon. 58 00:05:06.240 --> 00:05:10.519 I' d missed the morning flight, so I' d get on 59 00:05:10.639 --> 00:05:14.959 the next one that had a quota for the island. Five o' clock. 60 00:05:15.079 --> 00:05:18.680 I was entering the city knowing the girls were about to leave the Jim. 61 00:05:19.040 --> 00:05:25.879 I was writing to Andrea if I could come to my apartment when I 62 00:05:26.319 --> 00:05:30.759 got out of Jim without her sisters knowing. He told me it was hard. 63 00:05:30.279 --> 00:05:32.920 Why would he give his sisters an excuse, as he had gone with 64 00:05:33.040 --> 00:05:40.079 them in one of the twin minis. We agreed that as soon as he 65 00:05:40.199 --> 00:05:43.120 got home, he' d stop by looking for her. I would talk 66 00:05:43.279 --> 00:05:46.639 to Maru, because from that day she was going to stay with me. 67 00:05:47.240 --> 00:05:51.759 I spoke to Maru. His voice was very gloomy and somewhat dull. She 68 00:05:51.920 --> 00:05:57.279 didn' t put any resistance to me taking Andrea and if I was looking 69 00:05:57.360 --> 00:06:02.920 for her before 7: 00 a m much better and she left me worried 70 00:06:03.040 --> 00:06:09.360 about her attitude and disposition, although I was much more attracted by the attention 71 00:06:09.439 --> 00:06:12.680 not turned off from her voice and worried when I went by looking for Andrea, 72 00:06:12.680 --> 00:06:12.680 I was surprised by the size of the briefcase she came out with. 73 00:06:13.920 --> 00:06:19.319 What happened they voted for you I asked surprised. Haha, not Dad. 74 00:06:19.839 --> 00:06:25.439 Tomorrow begins Holy Week and Mom gave me permission to spend it at Grandma' 75 00:06:25.480 --> 00:06:30.759 s house. Right, daughter, I had forgotten and next Thursday turns one 76 00:06:30.879 --> 00:06:36.199 year dead. Your grandfather said sadly, remembering Don Mario if Dad knows, 77 00:06:36.680 --> 00:06:42.959 he said changing his face and what we' re going to do, why 78 00:06:43.040 --> 00:06:46.319 we don' t want to spend the week locked up at home. Well, 79 00:06:46.439 --> 00:06:49.519 daughter, I didn' t come thinking about taking a walk. I 80 00:06:49.600 --> 00:06:56.319 thought no one would want to go out because of Grandpa' s not traveling, 81 00:06:57.000 --> 00:06:58.720 surely, but we want to at least get out of the house. 82 00:07:00.319 --> 00:07:02.439 Well, Daughter, I' ll take her out as many times as I 83 00:07:02.439 --> 00:07:08.680 can or what. Tonight we' ll sleep in the house. I thought 84 00:07:08.800 --> 00:07:13.519 I' d stay in your apartment. How did you tell me not to 85 00:07:13.600 --> 00:07:20.360 tell my sisters clearly to surprise them? Tonight, when we get there for 86 00:07:20.360 --> 00:07:26.439 now, let' s eat and talk. We went to a restaurant no 87 00:07:26.519 --> 00:07:32.399 junk food. After we asked for the letter, we started talking. Tell 88 00:07:32.399 --> 00:07:38.279 me, how' s your mom, how are things at home? Either 89 00:07:38.360 --> 00:07:41.839 way or worse, Mom, she spends all day in the house, sometimes 90 00:07:41.959 --> 00:07:45.199 she cries, sometimes she' s talking to her and she' s starting 91 00:07:45.199 --> 00:07:48.839 to drink. Alberto comes from work and locks himself in his guest room, 92 00:07:51.000 --> 00:07:57.480 they fight less, but now they talk less. What a sheath, daughter, 93 00:07:57.800 --> 00:08:01.639 and what else you' ve heard about when they argue. Well, 94 00:08:01.120 --> 00:08:05.399 after you called me that Sunday, the next day, the night they had 95 00:08:05.519 --> 00:08:11.800 the worst fight ever. After that, she didn' t go to work 96 00:08:11.279 --> 00:08:16.920 anymore because she had left the presidency. They didn' t talk that week. 97 00:08:18.399 --> 00:08:22.519 Dad, something needs to be done. He sounded worried. Yes, 98 00:08:22.639 --> 00:08:24.079 child, I know, but I don' t know what we can do. 99 00:08:26.600 --> 00:08:31.480 It' s a very delicate situation. Your mother' s relationship depends 100 00:08:31.560 --> 00:08:35.159 on a thread the times I' ve tried to talk to her about it. 101 00:08:35.679 --> 00:08:39.799 She doesn' t let me or want to talk about it and I 102 00:08:39.840 --> 00:08:43.000 really don' t know how to help her. And your brothers haven' 103 00:08:43.080 --> 00:08:48.120 t asked for more about insects. I said smiling to change the subject a 104 00:08:48.120 --> 00:08:52.799 little bit. What I wanted to know. Jaja had already told me, 105 00:08:54.600 --> 00:08:58.840 not Dad, but they asked me the other day if they were going to 106 00:08:58.919 --> 00:09:03.000 split up, I didn' t know what to answer. If I asked 107 00:09:03.120 --> 00:09:07.559 them why they were asking that question and they told me that they had heard 108 00:09:07.639 --> 00:09:15.679 service women talk that they were going to divorce poor God. They must be 109 00:09:15.679 --> 00:09:20.279 distressed. Yeah, then I told them they' d soon be happy because 110 00:09:20.320 --> 00:09:24.360 now they' re barely fighting. I had to tell them that to calm 111 00:09:24.360 --> 00:09:28.960 down. I don' t know how long that will last. Well, 112 00:09:30.039 --> 00:09:33.879 we' ll see after lunch we went to her grandmother' s house. 113 00:09:35.360 --> 00:09:39.399 It was nine o' clock. When we arrived, I put the car 114 00:09:39.480 --> 00:09:43.879 in the garage and we went into the house through the kitchen. There was 115 00:09:45.039 --> 00:09:48.480 no one at the bottom of the house and we sneaked up the stairs and 116 00:09:50.200 --> 00:09:56.480 heard noise in the twins' rooms They were listening to music. The rest 117 00:09:56.559 --> 00:10:01.039 of us couldn' t hear anything. We stood in front of the twin 118 00:10:01.120 --> 00:10:07.480 door and knocked moderately. Carina opened the door and remained silent when she saw 119 00:10:07.480 --> 00:10:15.279 Andrea, but when she saw me, Dad screamed, screamed very loudly and 120 00:10:15.360 --> 00:10:18.320 from a jump. He covered the space that separated us and hooked me on 121 00:10:18.440 --> 00:10:24.200 a little horse in front of me, filling my face with kisses. Carolina 122 00:10:24.360 --> 00:10:28.279 ran out and also hooked me around the waist with her arms. He also 123 00:10:28.279 --> 00:10:33.399 shouted, but not as loud as his sister was in those needs. When 124 00:10:33.519 --> 00:10:41.440 I felt the door behind me open I turned instinctively and there was badly very 125 00:10:41.440 --> 00:10:46.600 quiet. Looking at me, he had a slight smile on his face and 126 00:10:46.720 --> 00:10:52.080 his face full of cream. What a scandal that is. Girls screamed the 127 00:10:52.200 --> 00:10:56.639 mother- in- law from her room, bringing Malhu and me out of 128 00:10:56.840 --> 00:11:03.120 focus, and she looked away. The girls were jumping hugging all three hello 129 00:11:03.240 --> 00:11:09.799 wrong I said serenely. Hello Peter said likewise, turned around and walked into 130 00:11:09.879 --> 00:11:18.200 his room, closing behind him the door with insurance. I felt relief for 131 00:11:18.279 --> 00:11:24.720 the first time in a long time. The girls went into her room and 132 00:11:24.799 --> 00:11:26.960 I went to the mother- in- law' s room. I went 133 00:11:28.080 --> 00:11:35.960 in carefully without warning. She was lying on her bed watching TV caramba seabird 134 00:11:37.039 --> 00:11:41.000 by land. He said surprised to see me and with an ear to ear 135 00:11:43.559 --> 00:11:46.840 smile to see that I can' t live without you either. Mother- 136 00:11:46.840 --> 00:11:52.080 in- law. I said with itchy Jaja you' re gonna start with 137 00:11:52.080 --> 00:11:56.759 your foolishness. Mother- in- law, I know you miss me. 138 00:11:56.240 --> 00:12:03.639 Don' t deny it. I also read him very strange hehe if aha 139 00:12:03.120 --> 00:12:11.840 you came because you can' t stand being away from my daughters, vagabond 140 00:12:11.000 --> 00:12:13.960 na that goes I got serious. They don' t want me anymore. 141 00:12:16.600 --> 00:12:20.960 If you say so, there must be some truth. He said with slight 142 00:12:20.960 --> 00:12:24.879 irony. We' re just fooling around, we' re talking dark. 143 00:12:24.360 --> 00:12:28.039 I told him far above the new yachts, without going into much detail. 144 00:12:31.200 --> 00:12:37.399 I didn' t really talk to her that night and I went out because 145 00:12:37.960 --> 00:12:46.799 I heard Carina looking for me, Dad was looking for you, he told 146 00:12:46.240 --> 00:12:48.080 me when I came up the stairs, tell me daughter going to meet her. 147 00:12:48.720 --> 00:12:54.440 Daddy I can stay with you tonight he asked me with a broad smile. 148 00:12:56.039 --> 00:13:01.039 Sure, kid, you got kicked out again, no, but it 149 00:13:01.039 --> 00:13:05.279 ' s okay. Since you left, they haven' t been together again, 150 00:13:05.600 --> 00:13:09.480 and I' d rather leave their space behind then calmer. If I 151 00:13:09.559 --> 00:13:16.440 can join, she said very carefree. We went to my maid' s 152 00:13:16.480 --> 00:13:20.600 room and went to bed to see you for a while. He told me 153 00:13:20.720 --> 00:13:24.200 about the guy he likes, that the only thing he doesn' t like 154 00:13:24.399 --> 00:13:28.440 very much is that it' s immature, but he likes how naive and 155 00:13:28.639 --> 00:13:33.200 maybe how innocent he is and more how he gets nervous. When she was 156 00:13:33.360 --> 00:13:37.519 around and that reminded her of me and it was very obvious that friends would 157 00:13:37.600 --> 00:13:41.879 mess with him when she was around, she didn' t get intense and 158 00:13:41.960 --> 00:13:48.080 I thanked her for just giving me a few chaste kisses after the marathon the 159 00:13:48.200 --> 00:13:52.080 night before with Carola. He was well relaxed until the dream overcame us and 160 00:13:52.200 --> 00:13:58.519 we fell asleep hugging each other. The next day, my other daughters came 161 00:13:58.639 --> 00:14:01.559 in early to wake up Carina, as she was still in school. That 162 00:14:01.679 --> 00:14:07.679 Friday I took advantage and took a bath and after dressing I went out for 163 00:14:07.799 --> 00:14:15.279 coffee. I greeted Juana and told me you are very skinny and have sunken 164 00:14:15.360 --> 00:14:18.600 eyes. Sit down, I' ll make you a well- solved breakfast. 165 00:14:20.080 --> 00:14:22.080 I remembered Conni when he reproached me for my condition on the plane. 166 00:14:24.600 --> 00:14:28.919 Good morning, Pedro, how are you? He said bad when he walked 167 00:14:28.039 --> 00:14:33.519 into the kitchen when he was already starting breakfast, came up to me and 168 00:14:33.600 --> 00:14:39.600 gave me a soft kiss in the slap. Good morning, Malou answered him 169 00:14:39.720 --> 00:14:43.080 as calmly as possible and not to give away the explosion of joy that is 170 00:14:43.200 --> 00:14:48.840 unleashed within me. She received Doña Juana' s coffee and sat down in 171 00:14:48.000 --> 00:14:52.480 front of me with a scrutinizing look and a slight smile. He started drinking 172 00:14:52.639 --> 00:14:58.039 his coffee. I looked at her smiling. I couldn' t help it 173 00:14:58.120 --> 00:15:03.399 and without saying anything I kept on eating. She was very beautiful, had 174 00:15:03.480 --> 00:15:09.840 more makeup than usual and was very elegant. He might have had a working 175 00:15:09.919 --> 00:15:15.919 meeting later. He finished his coffee and, taking a cambur and an apple 176 00:15:16.000 --> 00:15:18.360 from the fruit basket, said goodbye to everyone and went out to the garage. 177 00:15:20.840 --> 00:15:24.960 I was tempted to go after her and tell her something, but I 178 00:15:24.080 --> 00:15:28.759 ' d better be calm. I' m not forcing anything now. Every 179 00:15:28.840 --> 00:15:35.200 time I did it before, the situation got worse. I think then that 180 00:15:35.360 --> 00:15:39.960 even though she and Carola have decided to give me an audience, I should 181 00:15:39.960 --> 00:15:45.159 not rush things. At least you bring joy to the house. Juana says, 182 00:15:45.360 --> 00:15:54.080 taking me out of concentration, taking advantage that it is not every day 183 00:15:56.559 --> 00:16:03.960 I answered smiling hum I just heard him say they fight a lot when I 184 00:16:03.080 --> 00:16:04.799 am not, no, but their faces are not of joy. The girls 185 00:16:04.960 --> 00:16:11.600 this morning were pure laughter, contrary to the other days and already saw Miss 186 00:16:11.639 --> 00:16:18.559 Maria Lourdes for a while, she did not smile she ends up telling me 187 00:16:18.639 --> 00:16:22.120 while doing her chores Juana. She' s definitely my ally in the house. 188 00:16:22.679 --> 00:16:29.240 Telling me that means when I' m not long faces, I' 189 00:16:29.399 --> 00:16:33.000 m going with Doña Maria to the mall. She tells me that the company 190 00:16:33.080 --> 00:16:37.559 is leaving normally, that Mrs Rosa has been of great help still learning some 191 00:16:37.639 --> 00:16:45.320 things. Usually, your signature is required only for extraordinary and significant cases. 192 00:16:48.039 --> 00:16:52.840 It has received support from heads of departments and has been well received. He 193 00:16:52.960 --> 00:16:59.679 told me that some departments were having problems with the sea because of his desire 194 00:16:59.840 --> 00:17:03.920 to control everything. Don Mario knew how to read people and who were in 195 00:17:04.000 --> 00:17:10.799 the addresses of departments were people he trusted. That day, Mrs Rosa told 196 00:17:10.920 --> 00:17:15.960 us that Don Mario had few problems. The problems were torn from the roots. 197 00:17:17.480 --> 00:17:21.160 If someone failed, it was very rare for him to give second chances. 198 00:17:21.680 --> 00:17:25.119 He didn' t pay good wages to get his ass kicked out. 199 00:17:26.839 --> 00:17:30.720 After a while with them, I went to Jim where I set out to 200 00:17:30.759 --> 00:17:37.000 do some exercises. I' d had a pretty sedentary month and I needed 201 00:17:37.480 --> 00:17:42.400 to get in shape before noon. Carola arrived from Caracas directly to Jim very 202 00:17:42.480 --> 00:17:48.200 cheerful and affectionate. He invited me to lunch and I accepted. We went 203 00:17:48.279 --> 00:17:52.400 to a restaurant, a little out of town. My surprise. When he 204 00:17:52.920 --> 00:17:57.319 reached hand, he was waiting for us. My joy wasn' t normal 205 00:17:57.400 --> 00:18:02.759 and I got a little nervous. That was the moment I had asked so 206 00:18:02.920 --> 00:18:08.000 much to discuss things. We took a seat at the table where she was 207 00:18:08.200 --> 00:18:15.039 and ordered some drinks from the front door. Well, Peter to the point 208 00:18:15.119 --> 00:18:19.240 told me very seriously and at first gave me a bad spine. The creepy 209 00:18:19.400 --> 00:18:23.279 thing about it is that she was very calm, which is what you want. 210 00:18:26.039 --> 00:18:30.759 You know well, what I want bad. I want to be able 211 00:18:30.240 --> 00:18:36.160 to spend time with you quality time, you want sex said interrupting me. 212 00:18:37.799 --> 00:18:41.680 Yeah, I told you that, too, but I don' t want 213 00:18:41.119 --> 00:18:47.680 it because it hurts like last time or as a painkiller, because we both 214 00:18:47.680 --> 00:18:51.279 want it. I want to be able to decide. I also want to 215 00:18:51.440 --> 00:18:55.160 be able to share moments with you, a way out, a dinner, 216 00:18:55.160 --> 00:18:59.640 a lot of things. I said firmly. That can no longer be possible. 217 00:18:59.720 --> 00:19:07.559 Dog we' ll only be together, the three of us why, 218 00:19:07.880 --> 00:19:10.079 because I want it so, so I decided and so it' s going 219 00:19:10.079 --> 00:19:14.680 to do. Listening to her in such a haughty stony made me feel a 220 00:19:14.759 --> 00:19:17.440 lot of anger, but I held back. I knew I shouldn' t 221 00:19:17.440 --> 00:19:23.119 be upset. Why did you decide? Why. Yeah, that' s 222 00:19:23.279 --> 00:19:27.960 not a bad reason. It' s my decision and nothing else must matter. 223 00:19:30.519 --> 00:19:34.160 That' s not going to change, and we were at a standstill. 224 00:19:34.680 --> 00:19:37.799 She won' t give in and I want to insist. Carola doesn 225 00:19:37.920 --> 00:19:41.480 ' t say anything. There' s equanimity on his face. Looking at 226 00:19:41.480 --> 00:19:47.480 us talking, I begged him not to tell Malu what we had talked about 227 00:19:47.559 --> 00:19:52.640 in Caracas, but it was possible. They have shown an complicity that I 228 00:19:52.799 --> 00:19:59.759 underestimated all this time. You, what do you think, Carola, I 229 00:19:59.759 --> 00:20:02.759 asked her to take her out of her equanimity. I wanted to compromise her 230 00:20:02.880 --> 00:20:07.440 a little bit and get her out of that margin she herself, or Malula 231 00:20:07.480 --> 00:20:12.200 is submitting to, you agree with that decision. Fair enough. She can 232 00:20:12.319 --> 00:20:18.720 ' t decide about me. He answered quickly. Bad. You didn' 233 00:20:18.839 --> 00:20:25.480 t say this was a three- way decision. I answered yes and she 234 00:20:25.599 --> 00:20:33.359 agrees. He insisted with authority, but I didn' t tell you before 235 00:20:33.480 --> 00:20:36.200 the end of the trip and we agreed that we were going to discuss it. 236 00:20:36.279 --> 00:20:40.000 All three of them, but when I came back, they had already 237 00:20:40.000 --> 00:20:42.799 made the decision. We' re a majority. Nothing you want is going 238 00:20:42.880 --> 00:20:48.440 to be able to do. He said Disturbing. The moods were heating up. 239 00:20:48.920 --> 00:20:52.480 I' ve already told you that you can' t make decisions for 240 00:20:52.599 --> 00:20:57.920 others, like last year. Look how it all ended. I want to 241 00:20:59.039 --> 00:21:03.039 hear it from her. She can talk too. Then I turned again to 242 00:21:03.160 --> 00:21:08.119 Carola staring at her. You also agree with what he wrongly decided. Fair 243 00:21:08.200 --> 00:21:14.119 enough. You think this has a future. So, this way, she 244 00:21:15.680 --> 00:21:18.759 just decided, like you and I are going to make a life together. 245 00:21:19.039 --> 00:21:23.680 I know you want to, because you already told me, but you also 246 00:21:23.839 --> 00:21:30.680 know what I want. I' m asking you again. It' s 247 00:21:30.720 --> 00:21:33.839 just I put Carola in three and two. If it were up to her 248 00:21:33.920 --> 00:21:38.519 and me, I could swear that she would agree with the message to truet 249 00:21:38.640 --> 00:21:42.160 I saw that on her face the annoyance was drawn. She didn' t 250 00:21:42.240 --> 00:21:45.480 want to be in that situation and I kept putting more wood on the fire. 251 00:21:47.000 --> 00:21:49.000 She wants it to be you and me. And when she wants all 252 00:21:49.079 --> 00:21:55.759 three of us, I want us to be all three for everything. But 253 00:21:55.799 --> 00:22:03.720 what do you want? What she decides is decisive. Malo asked quickly very 254 00:22:03.880 --> 00:22:10.160 safely and I realized that Carola had told Malu what we had talked about in 255 00:22:10.240 --> 00:22:15.720 Caracas. Bad was giving Carola at that time the power to make the final 256 00:22:15.799 --> 00:22:25.880 decision. I looked at Carola accusingly for telling Malo. I don' t 257 00:22:25.960 --> 00:22:30.880 just want to know what she thinks, why I already see that what I 258 00:22:30.000 --> 00:22:33.759 could decide if I depended on her is already your decision. I said by 259 00:22:33.839 --> 00:22:38.400 taking away the power to decide and making bad the crease. I didn' 260 00:22:38.480 --> 00:22:44.559 t force her to anything. He jumped very upset. She' s big 261 00:22:44.680 --> 00:22:48.400 enough to decide what to do without me telling her anything. She didn' 262 00:22:48.480 --> 00:22:52.599 t stop looking at me. Seeing that she was not going to take my 263 00:22:52.680 --> 00:22:56.359 look away, I decided to change my face and in a defeated way, 264 00:22:56.640 --> 00:23:03.200 I sighed, but I did not stop looking at her or carving home look 265 00:23:03.319 --> 00:23:07.799 of her face so beautiful and so hard at the same time, assuming that 266 00:23:07.799 --> 00:23:12.839 is the only option.“ How long forgiveness will last,” he asked 267 00:23:12.839 --> 00:23:19.440 surprised. My intention will always be to press if malu. For how long 268 00:23:19.559 --> 00:23:27.960 this will be. Did you smoke a lumpie, asked in a mocking way? 269 00:23:29.119 --> 00:23:33.039 My question is as serious as your decision. Still staring at her, 270 00:23:33.680 --> 00:23:41.319 Peter, let me clarify something. This decision is final and I' ll 271 00:23:41.400 --> 00:23:47.000 tell you something else. I never expected to have to tell you this, 272 00:23:47.319 --> 00:23:52.079 thinking that time would do its magic, but in view of your foolishness to 273 00:23:52.160 --> 00:23:56.720 not want to see the reality and consequences of your actions and much less take 274 00:23:56.799 --> 00:24:02.519 responsibility, that assertion seemed unusual to me. She knew what we did 17 275 00:24:02.599 --> 00:24:07.880 years ago and we agreed that we were both responsible. Now he throws all 276 00:24:07.960 --> 00:24:11.759 the dead away from me, even if I don' t take the reason 277 00:24:11.759 --> 00:24:15.880 out of him. I did assume my responsibility from the very moment Carola' 278 00:24:17.039 --> 00:24:21.319 s whole thing happened and she can' t blame me for not being able 279 00:24:21.440 --> 00:24:25.000 to tell me about the pregnancy. It would be cruel and low on my 280 00:24:25.079 --> 00:24:29.759 part to blame her at this point for that, but calmly I kept listening 281 00:24:29.759 --> 00:24:33.519 to her. I decided then that it should be. Why only then would 282 00:24:33.599 --> 00:24:36.720 you realize how long I' m not going to stay by your side, 283 00:24:36.960 --> 00:24:41.240 which I told you since you came in time, you had to realize and 284 00:24:41.359 --> 00:24:48.880 accept that Carola is the one to stay with you. She can give you 285 00:24:48.000 --> 00:24:52.279 something that I don' t and don' t believe, which is that 286 00:24:52.359 --> 00:24:57.279 I' m sacrificing myself to make you happy nothing further from reality. I 287 00:24:57.359 --> 00:25:03.839 was going to step away so you wouldn' t suffer and you were still 288 00:25:03.839 --> 00:25:07.000 patronizing yourself. But everything with you has to be sharp, just like you 289 00:25:07.079 --> 00:25:11.599 ' ve always been with everyone. I don' t know why that affects 290 00:25:11.599 --> 00:25:15.519 you now. That' s how we get tangled and I' ve never 291 00:25:15.519 --> 00:25:18.200 stopped being. I could swear it was part of what you liked, although 292 00:25:18.240 --> 00:25:22.839 I still don' t think I was giving her the chance to tell me. 293 00:25:22.279 --> 00:25:29.000 So I haven' t even bothered to get better or change. I 294 00:25:29.079 --> 00:25:33.440 know, and I' m pretty sure that' s what you like the 295 00:25:33.559 --> 00:25:37.039 most I had to push in that direction. You' re so wrong. 296 00:25:37.559 --> 00:25:41.079 She said something agitated. You' re underestimating yourself. If you think it 297 00:25:41.240 --> 00:25:48.839 ' s the most important thing, that proves you don' t know me 298 00:25:48.960 --> 00:25:52.519 well, you' re just getting to know me. Well, we' 299 00:25:52.759 --> 00:25:56.680 ve discovered a new facet of you and both Carola and I are delighted with 300 00:25:56.720 --> 00:26:00.359 her, but maybe none of that matters. Or else it will be that 301 00:26:00.480 --> 00:26:06.799 overnight you change sides and you want to leave me out. Don' t 302 00:26:06.799 --> 00:26:11.599 be ridiculous, Pedro. It' s not about that, then, what 303 00:26:11.680 --> 00:26:15.799 the hell it' s about by slamming at the table that made them. 304 00:26:15.880 --> 00:26:19.759 Jumping in your seat at two can be serious at once and stop playing riddles 305 00:26:19.839 --> 00:26:29.960 and intrigues like a young lady tell me why you decided this. Nothing you 306 00:26:30.079 --> 00:26:34.319 ' ve told me so far makes sense. It' s about that' 307 00:26:34.400 --> 00:26:41.160 s my decision and there' s no turning back. He said screaming, 308 00:26:41.960 --> 00:26:45.359 breathing agitally. His exasperation was very sudden. I' m not playing, 309 00:26:45.599 --> 00:26:49.119 and I' m not the same 17- year- old girl to let 310 00:26:49.119 --> 00:26:53.839 you know. That' s my decision and you have no choice but to 311 00:26:53.839 --> 00:26:57.480 accept it. I don' t want to accept it. I don' 312 00:26:57.480 --> 00:27:00.960 t like it. I want us to be alone. You and me or 313 00:27:02.039 --> 00:27:06.759 that we' re always the three, not occasionally or occasionally, because don 314 00:27:06.839 --> 00:27:14.079 ' t take it or leave it. It' s either like that or 315 00:27:14.200 --> 00:27:18.200 it' s with no Remató standing up and slamming on the table that didn 316 00:27:18.200 --> 00:27:23.960 ' t surprise me. It was a risky ultimatum, because leaving it meant 317 00:27:25.039 --> 00:27:30.079 running out of both, being Carola agreed and she was sure that I didn 318 00:27:30.240 --> 00:27:33.759 ' t want that. With it I stood up and brought my face closer 319 00:27:33.839 --> 00:27:37.799 to hers and I said to her with all the calmness of the world. 320 00:27:40.160 --> 00:27:44.000 Then I' ll quit. I said very calmly, staring at her, 321 00:27:45.839 --> 00:27:49.519 her eyes began to swing quickly looking at each of my eyes, and her 322 00:27:49.640 --> 00:27:55.400 face hardened. His breathing was still agitated. You' re satisfied with that 323 00:27:55.400 --> 00:28:03.400 decision. He didn' t say this time firmly why if it was one 324 00:28:03.480 --> 00:28:12.440 of your two options for Carola, you can' t leave her. You 325 00:28:12.559 --> 00:28:18.200 should have thought about it when you gave me the options, options that you 326 00:28:18.279 --> 00:28:22.000 and she would agree with. I interrupted her and she remained silent. He 327 00:28:22.119 --> 00:28:26.720 was striving to maintain the hardness of his face. Either it' s both 328 00:28:26.920 --> 00:28:30.440 with me or it' s none. That' s my choice now. 329 00:28:30.920 --> 00:28:37.359 Take it or leave it and for the record. I' ve never conditioned 330 00:28:37.480 --> 00:28:42.559 ours like you did since we got back together. Malo seemed to want to 331 00:28:42.680 --> 00:28:47.799 explode and Carola was very angry. Fear was drawn on his face and his 332 00:28:47.880 --> 00:28:52.640 eyes were moistening. One of us isn' t being honest. And there 333 00:28:52.759 --> 00:28:59.400 ' s something else behind this whole thing, something hides bad that from the 334 00:28:59.440 --> 00:29:03.160 beginning she' s committed to that we don' t have a future together 335 00:29:03.319 --> 00:29:07.200 and now she' s pushing me towards Carola. I drank the drink in 336 00:29:07.319 --> 00:29:12.279 one drink and left them to them. There at the restaurant, I went 337 00:29:12.440 --> 00:29:18.079 out ringing the tires of the car. He was very angry and needed to 338 00:29:18.079 --> 00:29:22.000 drain it. About a half kilometer away I stood on the road, stopped 339 00:29:22.079 --> 00:29:26.799 the car and screamed with all my might and catharsis against the wheel of the 340 00:29:29.359 --> 00:29:33.599 car much more relieved and with sore hands, I headed towards the house. 341 00:29:33.119 --> 00:29:38.960 I needed to stay busy all the way my mind kept coming up with situations, 342 00:29:41.079 --> 00:29:45.319 reasons or causes of what was going on and I couldn' t find 343 00:29:45.480 --> 00:29:49.039 any that convinced me at all what I had done to myself. To believe 344 00:29:49.119 --> 00:29:55.799 Carola in Caracas still has strength, because conni also told me, but hand 345 00:29:55.880 --> 00:30:00.680 seems not to accept it or does not want to say it. Coming into 346 00:30:00.720 --> 00:30:06.039 town, I called the girls. It was barely half a day to my 347 00:30:06.039 --> 00:30:10.319 surprise. The girls were already leaving school, so you' d better stop 348 00:30:10.440 --> 00:30:12.200 by looking for them at the house. Once they left the mini, I 349 00:30:14.720 --> 00:30:18.200 told them to put on a bathing suit, that we were going to spend 350 00:30:18.359 --> 00:30:22.440 the afternoon at the beach. In the middle of the afternoon, while on 351 00:30:22.519 --> 00:30:26.519 the beach, I was called Maru who today was the other meeting with the 352 00:30:26.680 --> 00:30:30.200 family that if I was going to give him the records I had forgotten that 353 00:30:30.200 --> 00:30:34.799 detail. Dinner was at seven o' clock at night. We' re 354 00:30:34.920 --> 00:30:40.319 back from the beach. We stopped by my apartment early looking for the records 355 00:30:40.400 --> 00:30:42.920 and went to the mother- in- law' s house. I left 356 00:30:44.039 --> 00:30:47.720 my car inside the garage in case I went to Alberto I didn' t 357 00:30:47.720 --> 00:30:52.880 see it.“ Outside Pedro, what are you doing here,” the 358 00:30:52.880 --> 00:30:56.759 mother- in- law asked with surprise. When I see you arrive, 359 00:30:56.000 --> 00:30:59.799 remember the deal I have with Maru u u u u U. Well, 360 00:31:00.119 --> 00:31:03.480 I have to hand him the records of the month. But if Alberto comes, 361 00:31:06.480 --> 00:31:11.319 he sounded worried now. Don' t worry. I' m staying 362 00:31:11.400 --> 00:31:15.039 in my room. If you come alone, tell her I' m here 363 00:31:15.039 --> 00:31:19.880 waiting for you. The mother- in- law gave me an accusing look 364 00:31:21.000 --> 00:31:25.519 as if I had bad intentions and did not see me that way that who 365 00:31:25.640 --> 00:31:33.839 I do expect that way is to you, Haha your foolishness seems to have 366 00:31:33.839 --> 00:31:36.680 no end you are incorrigible. Now I think I understand the three daughters of 367 00:31:37.319 --> 00:31:41.599 mine, thank God, that she' s none of them. What if 368 00:31:41.720 --> 00:31:48.319 I didn' t finish my finger by the neck earlier, I' d 369 00:31:48.400 --> 00:31:52.960 have eaten his broth. Haha, you' re so funny. I went 370 00:31:53.039 --> 00:31:56.359 to my room today and took a bath, got dressed and laid down to 371 00:31:56.400 --> 00:32:01.839 watch TV. I don' t know when I fell asleep when they knocked 372 00:32:01.920 --> 00:32:07.799 on my door and woke up something startled. Hi, Pedro, I' 373 00:32:07.920 --> 00:32:09.599 ve got time knocking on the door. He says something annoying. Maru. 374 00:32:09.680 --> 00:32:15.400 When I open the door, give me the records. Please, of course 375 00:32:15.920 --> 00:32:21.920 it happens. Please, I said open the door more. No, thank 376 00:32:21.920 --> 00:32:23.720 you. I' m fine here.“ Give me the records,” 377 00:32:24.319 --> 00:32:31.000 he said imperatively under the door frame. How' s it going with Alberto, 378 00:32:31.519 --> 00:32:35.400 I said while I went to the nightstand and pulled out the records. 379 00:32:37.079 --> 00:32:42.119 That' s not your problem. He said bluntly. Maybe, but I 380 00:32:42.240 --> 00:32:45.839 can' t help but worry. Maru, I feel guilty and somehow I 381 00:32:45.960 --> 00:32:51.880 wish I could do something to help. You have nothing to worry about. 382 00:32:52.359 --> 00:32:57.400 We' re all right now, he lied. Don' t take my 383 00:32:57.480 --> 00:33:00.559 intention in a bad way. During the last year, I came to show 384 00:33:00.680 --> 00:33:06.599 you that I can be your friend last year you used me Peter, you 385 00:33:06.680 --> 00:33:12.680 were brainwashing me, trying to hide everything that had happened years ago. Maru, 386 00:33:13.119 --> 00:33:16.119 you got to think it would have happened if you' d never heard 387 00:33:16.200 --> 00:33:22.440 about what happened 17 years ago, but I found out and diagonal bar. 388 00:33:22.559 --> 00:33:29.079 Somehow I would have found out, Maru, maybe you' ll find something 389 00:33:29.079 --> 00:33:32.640 revealing. Then I interrupted her while I was handing her five cases with the 390 00:33:32.640 --> 00:33:38.799 disks. She took them lived that was five. This is day four. 391 00:33:39.240 --> 00:33:45.599 Why you give me five records. Next week is the anniversary mass of your 392 00:33:45.720 --> 00:33:50.880 dad' s death. I assume that day can be counted as a family 393 00:33:50.960 --> 00:33:54.240 reunion. Besides, it' s a demonstration that we can trust each other. 394 00:33:55.839 --> 00:34:00.440 That' s more than ever. Never say, never once once 17 395 00:34:00.559 --> 00:34:06.559 years ago Maru told me we' d never be together again. Looking at 396 00:34:06.720 --> 00:34:08.719 me for a moment, he reversed my eyes and turned on his heels. 397 00:34:08.800 --> 00:34:15.960 He left without saying goodbye. After he left, I lay down I was 398 00:34:16.079 --> 00:34:21.679 about to fall asleep again. When Carola came in, she was very serious. 399 00:34:22.159 --> 00:34:27.199 What happened at noon, Peter, you were not willing to speak and 400 00:34:27.320 --> 00:34:31.039 accept what had been decided. You can' t make this a guachafita, 401 00:34:31.920 --> 00:34:37.360 Pedro, one day, if not one day. Now you' re talking 402 00:34:37.400 --> 00:34:44.760 about why at noon you didn' t say anything, when you should have 403 00:34:45.280 --> 00:34:49.039 done it and what you wanted me to say what I could have said would 404 00:34:49.039 --> 00:34:52.320 have made the situation worse. Tell me how you could make it worse. 405 00:34:52.960 --> 00:34:59.039 I don' t know, Pedro, what did you want me to say? 406 00:34:59.159 --> 00:35:02.840 Carola or or or or Forget it, I realized I was already ready 407 00:35:02.840 --> 00:35:07.440 to discuss that. She knows very well what I want. I' ve 408 00:35:07.480 --> 00:35:14.199 told him several times, Forget it, no, Pedro, that can' 409 00:35:14.280 --> 00:35:16.079 t stay that way. That' s how he' s gonna stay. 410 00:35:16.199 --> 00:35:21.400 Carola. Malo already decided for the three of us and I feel like you 411 00:35:21.559 --> 00:35:23.800 haven' t been completely honest with me. I' ve been frontal with 412 00:35:23.840 --> 00:35:29.039 what I want and you know it well. I told you in Caracas that 413 00:35:29.159 --> 00:35:32.360 you had the advantage of knowing everything about the three of us and that you 414 00:35:32.480 --> 00:35:37.239 had the privilege of deciding. But you guys have a cat locked up and 415 00:35:37.360 --> 00:35:42.760 I' m big enough to play riddles. Then you' ve decided. 416 00:35:44.440 --> 00:35:47.480 Yeah, I' m tired and it' s over, Carola, I 417 00:35:47.639 --> 00:35:51.960 ' m tired of having to beg Malo. You don' t have to 418 00:35:52.119 --> 00:35:55.039 beg me. Peter said by softening the tone and on his face the anguish 419 00:35:55.119 --> 00:35:59.760 was drawn as he approached the bed and sat near me and you well know 420 00:35:59.880 --> 00:36:06.519 how to dry it. I softened my tone too, but now I can 421 00:36:07.000 --> 00:36:10.960 ' t, not this way and I' m really sorry. We stayed 422 00:36:12.079 --> 00:36:16.920 silent for a while staring at each other. I can stay with you tonight 423 00:36:17.400 --> 00:36:29.719 just to sleep you want sex I said paddling the expression of bad hahaha silly 424 00:36:29.840 --> 00:36:34.480 you know yes. I know that, too, and I' m not 425 00:36:34.559 --> 00:36:39.440 like her and I made room in my bed. So much for today' 426 00:36:39.559 --> 00:36:42.960 s chapter until the next one.
