maricela: from what i know is that you where in a orphanage my mom had different people everywhere and she had told them you where alive so i looked i always looked but it was a orphanage in the rancho not the city

viviana: how did you find me

she got quiet

maricela: i found out when your sperm donor popped out again angry he said he had found you and he was going to get to you before i could he had left to Mexico working for a rival cartel

viviana: why get to me first?

maricela: he saw me happy and he didnt want me to be happy or successful

giovani: your tata had helped him and his brother helped them always gave them all the chances he could but they kept turning there backs making her depressed your mom isn't the villain here ok?

maricela: babe stop

giovani: no i have to say it adan and pedro got killed because of there choices they had set us up they set her up they wanted to have a sit down with her alone to talk it all out but tata knew something was weird it wasn't right so we went with her at that moment i was her bodyguard she went nowhere alone and yea they where trying to kill her but your tata stepped in

maricela: he wasn't the only one that pulled the trigger i did to i yelled and screamed i told him i loved him that i wanted the world with him but he wanted to kill me first and i wasn't going to go like that .. it was self defense

viviana sat back

maricela: he had ran our DNA before he left to Mexico and found you he was trying to pin point the orphanage but going into a rivals city is not safe .. after he died i found you you where 4 years old they told me that you were left to a older lady saying i had died but that lady couldnt watch over you so she left you at the door step they had you checked out and stuff and thtas where you where put in the system

viviana: you killed him..

maricela: he was trying to kill me vivi i tried to help him we all tried to he was just mad they helped me so much to his brother worked with me while your sperm donor was locked up we made a lot of money together .. we where planning to get married at a point but he didnt like the fact i was bigger and that they looked for me

giovani: he didnt want to live in her shadow i even had talked to him about it we where friends then .. he never admitted the jealousy but tata could tell and tata was looking for someone to take over and it was your mom not me his son my sisters or adan or pedro it was her and he hated that he was jealous of it he sold her to the rival he was ready to give her head up for power .. i wasn't going to let my love die i wasn't when she found you i told your mother to put me on the certificate i told her im your father you would never question my love ever .. your mother is not a monster they ruined there own lives she was protected

viviana broke down crying .. giovani pulled her up and hugged her tight

maricela: i was pregnant with your brother at that point i was in a high risk pregnancy i was in hiding trying to be safe and look at how it went

viviana:i wish.. i wish i could talk to him and tell him everything im feeling.. why do all this

Maricela: he would've used you to go against me vivi it would've been bad

Viviana: you don't know that

Giovani: Maricela

Maricela: he sold me to the rival I was going to be killed that meaning javi would've been killed to I had to do what I had to to survive I loved him I was grateful for everything he had done but he did me dirty and I don't regret it
