Another round of
tears, another roud of fights & another round of bitterness.... this is so intensed!!
***********************
Perez house: Manuel disagreed with A.Maria & Azucena’s opinion as it’s a
very drastic step. Azucena explained to him that Juana’s problem is not normal like
when she was being thrown out from the school or when the people & neighbors gossips
about Juana’s condition. It is a totally different problem as this guy thinks that
Juana has what belongs to him & that he’ll do a/thing to 2 steal it. How on earth
are they going to defend themselves? Azucena also said that David’s opinion is still
the best – to hide Juana… yada yada yada… on & on. Juana told them that
she doesn’t want to see Mauricio a/more. She also doesn’t want to see his face
in her entire life. She will not give hope to that guy & steals as soon as her baby is
born… on & on …
At the hospital – Trauma section: Rogelio sat on a chair, punched another chair to
vent his anger as he thinks of Mauricio, that worthless guy. He’s fed up seeing his
worried face whenever he saw him. Amparito asked Humberto to get his dad a drink but
Rogelio instantly rose up & said… who said I’m thirsty, who? The doctor came
out from Carlota’s room… Humberto asked him for an update about Carlota’s
condition. The doctor told them that she’s stable & the impact on her head had
caused it to swell… that is why she’s still unconscious. He told them to have
faith as he doesn’t know how long she will be in that state. The doc gave a few
possibilities to them… Amparito cried right away as they are feeling helpless about
Carlota.
Perez house: The kettle was whistling, Manuel tried to make coffee but had spilled it on
top of the counter. He was furious… Azucena came into the kitchen, asked him what was
wrong. He said that nothing is right according to his ways. Azucena said… ‘Is it
because of Juana or you’re hurt as the only woman that you love had lied to you?...
You’re frustrated because she didn’t inform you a/thing & is on
Mauricio’s side…’ Manuel didn’t reply as no words can express how he
felt.
At the hospital – in Rafael’s room: Enriqueta looked at Mauricio while Aunt Eva
explained about Juana’s suffering. ‘Poor Juana… can you try to imagine how
she is dealing with situation & also her family at this moment…’ Enriqueta
agreed with what was being said. She remembered Manuel. Mauricio said that he needs to see
Juana, need to talk to her & he must express his true feelings towards Juana.
Perez house, in the kitchen: Azucena washed the dishes. A.Maria came in, sat down &
wiped her running tears away. She asked her mother whether Juana’s bag is ready or
not. She said… ‘I don’t think I can accept it. My experience is painful; I
got pregnant because of my foolishness… (continued crying)… but my
daughter…Did you realized what they are doing to Juana?’ A.Maria’s anger
has caused her to push the paper plates & cups to the floor. Azucena approached &
comforted her daughter as she too can’t take it.
Morning comes… bird’s chirping away…
At the hospital: Mauricio talked to his unconscious wife as he asked for her forgiveness.
He hoped that she would understand what he has to do after this… ‘I can’t
loose her… I can’t…’ He got up & left the room. Carlota slowly
opened her eyes as she had listened to what her husband had said.
Perez house: Juana’s alarm clock blared suddenly. Juana looked at her clock while
A.Maria lay down on her stomach. She stroked her mother’s hair as she told her that
she needs to go & her mother must help her to be strong. A.Maria let out a long sigh
as Juana got up from the bed & took her sling bag… went to the door & grabbed
her cloth’s bag.
At the hospital: Carlota opened her eyes as the nurse said to her to wait & stay calm,
she’ll be back soon. Desiree arrived, complaint to herself on who could give her some
information about Carlota.
Perez house: Azucena came out from the kitchen, gave Juana a choclate milk shake for her
journey. Juana hugged her grandmother. Manuel looked sad as Azucena continued to inform
her that she’d provided her some meat pies in case she ever gets hungry. A.Maria told
Juana to be strong. Door bell rang… Juana opened the door to David. He entered &
gave a peck on Juana’s cheek. Manuel stopped Juana & told her to wait as he
won’t allow her to leave the house. Manuel said… ‘Since when our family
solved a problem by running away & why are we encouraging her decision to run…
What is all this… I’m tired…’ Door bell rang again… Juana got
scared as she thinks that it would probably be Mauricio at the door. It was… as
Manuel opened & Mauricio entered looking like a nerd. Manuel crossed his arms while
looking at Mauricio with a vengeance.
At the hospital: The doctor tried to wake Carlota up. Carlota had asked where she was
& the doc informed her of what had happened. Desiree was talking to a nurse &
extracted some information. She had told Desiree what she knew & left her. She smiled
as faith is on her side. Rogelio saw Desiree at one corner; he asked him what she was
doing there. He appreciates her effort. Desiree was close to him when suddenly Amparito
& Humberto walked in. She got pissed off & queried her husband while Desiree paid
no attention.
Perez house – in the living room: Mauricio tried to approach Juana but was stopped by
Manuel & David. Azucena said to him that, if he comes a/where near her
grandchild… she’ll kill him herself. She asked David to bring Juana inside.
Mauricio told Juana’s family that she needed to speak to Juana first but A.Maria
banged him with her accusations. Manuel had pushed Mauricio because of trying to protect
Juana. Azucena quickly grabbed Manuel.
At the hospital: Rogelio had to face Amparito’s furiousness as her anger was boiling.
The nurse had informed that they can enter the room. Desiree was left behind.
Perez house: Juana was with David at the back garden. She eventually said to David that
she shouldn’t run instead Mauricio was supposed to leave her alone. She needs to
confront him so that she can give him a piece of her mind. David could not make her
changed her plans.
Mauricio was being told to leave their house but he paid no attention to their warning as
he continued explaining about his true feelings towards Juana. Manuel said to him, Juana
had informed them that she does not want to see or talk to him ever again. Mauricio got
scared of Manuel’s statement.
David was told by Juana that, she has made her decision to confront Mauricio herself to
express her unhappiness towards what she had gone through. If she didn’t ask him why,
Mauricio will harassed for the rest of her life. David could not do a/thing to stop her as
she got out to the living room. Juana is now facing Mauricio as she asked her family to
leave them for a while. Her family was against it but had to respect Juana’s sudden
decision. She assured her family that she won’t be influenced by him a/more. She felt
anger, hatred, betrayed & frustrated with Mauricio. To protect her baby, she
doesn’t have to be afraid either to him or to a/body. Juana told David to be s/where
near in case she might need him. David felt so proud of her statement & looked at
Mauricio while walking away.
Manuel grabbed A.Maria & discouraged her from eavesdropping. They have to respect
Juana as she needs to sort her problems with Mauricio. Azucena seek David’s opinion.
He was glad that their family acknowledged him. He told them to be alert of what Mauricio
might do to Juana.
In the living room: Juana told Mauricio not to get a/where near her & if he does, she
will either smack him or maybe kick him because of her boiling anger that’s inside of
her. Mauricio was shocked as he could not understand why she says all the harsh words to
him. She said that he had lied to her & she was too naďf & stupid to believe it.
He’s a destroyer… today she can take revenge. She informed him that she does not
want to see him a/more.
In the kitchen: Azucena conveyed her gratitude to David for taking good care of Juana on
her behalf. David was overjoyed as he smiled hearing A.Maria & Manuel gave hope &
wish for Juana to have the chance to love him back.
In the living room: Mauricio & Juana argued about the lies & deceived… She
showed all her frustration to him. Every time he tried to explain to her, she brushed it
away. No words can soften her up at that time.
At the hospital: Carlota listened to her parents as they were delighted that she has waked
up. She was confused as to why she was at the hospital…
Perez house: Still in the living room, Juana continued to quarrel with Mauricio. She told
him that it’s hard for her to believe every word that is coming out from his mouth.
Juana that is standing in front of him is strong as the stupid Juana does not exist
a/more.
At the hospital: The doc assured Rogelio & Amparito that Carlota is not having a
memory lapse but merely confusion. Carlota asked for Mauricio.
Outside: Humberto was seen with Desiree. She tried digging more information about Carlota.
She was surprised he told her that Carlota got a gun & nearly killed Juana when she
was at the office recently.
Perez house: Mauricio slowly approached Juana & tried his very best to explained that
he still loved her as she’s the mother to her child. He still remembered their
passionate kiss & hope Juana did not think that it was a lie. Juana cried as part of
her seems to have feelings for him & part of her in denial. He whispered into her ear
& said that he loves her … please believe him.
At Positivo/office: Enriqueta interrupted her colleagues to relay what Mauricio had wanted
her to say about the accident. There were all shocked especially La Bibi as she finally
understood why Alfredo had come to her house that night.
Perez house: Mauricio held Juana’s face close to him as repeated asked her to believe
him & not from other people. They nearly kiss but Juana quickly pushed him aside &
said that she would not be fooled again. She told him that she will run far away from him.
it doesn’t matter if he got a lot of detectives to find her as she will changed her
name & that he will not see her in this life. Mauricio was sad to hear that.
At the hospital: Humberto updated Alfredo about Carlota.
Perez house: Mauricio held her close again but that even made Juana feels restless &
screamed all her might. Her family came to the rescue.
At Positivo/Armando’s office: Armando asked Enriqueta what had happened & that he
wants to know in detail. He remembered a scene where he was caught up in a jam as cars
came to a stand still. He assured that it was Mauricio’s fault. Enriqueta asked him
how he can be so sure about it. He kept quiet.
Perez house: David got mad at Mauricio. Mauricio accused David for poisoning Juana’s
mind. Juana screamed at Mauricio to inform him that David wasn’t the person who had
told her about his secret. Mauricio was confused & shocked at the same time, trying to
figure out who & whether she’s telling the truth or not.
'sólo a tu lado quiero vivir ... sin ti mi cielo se vuelve gris ...dime que hacer si no
estás aqui...'
