A VIX ORIGINAL SERIES

I hope this tastes better than the kisses

you've been enjoying with your lover,

Dr. Fernando Palomares.

What...? What is he talking about, Mom?

Yes, it's true.

But let me tell you something...

The heart advises me To forget you

that you're doing me harm

More than I deserve

True, I was born to love

To suffer and be silent

But I can no longer endure

This life you give me

In the name of God My passion pleads with you

Stop humiliating the person Who lost everything for you

You don't care about My suffering?

What do you know about grieving?

You'll know what it feels

Like when three slaps hit you

When you pay

for having made me cry with three slaps.

Mom?

Aren't you going to answer?

Are you going to lie to your children, Consuelo?

What your dad says is true.

What?

A decent woman would never do such a thing.

And a man would?

Kids... kids, kids.

Don't judge your mom so harshly,

we all make mistakes.

We're going to solve this as a family,

Right, honey?

I...

may have not made the best decisions.

And I've been thinking,

I think it's time for me to do something

that I've wanted to do for a long time.

I want a divorce.

Doctor!

Take it easy.

- Take it easy! - Are you going to continue

sleeping with my wife?

I'm not going to fall for your provocations,

understand?

Asshole.

Oh, honey,

I remember that when I was a little girl,

we came to this park every Sunday,

to walk.

And once we came to feed the pigeons,

but you were scared because there were so many,

and you asked me to carry you.

And when I carried you,

I dropped all the corn we had,

and they rushed at us.

The more I screamed, the more you laughed.

You didn't ask me here to talk about pigeons.

Did you?

Something is going on,

and I'd rather you hear it from me.

You have a business of selling vibrators,

nothing can surprise me after that.

I have a lover and I'm getting divorced.

What?

Who is it?

Fernando Palomares.

Mom, for God's sake, have you gone crazy?

I saw his wife at the club, pregnant,

and you're married too.

I was separated when it happened,

so was he,

and we had no idea about Theresa honey.

You've always said that honesty is the most important thing.

Sweetie, that's why I'm being honest with you.

I never thought that...

that I could fall in love with someone like that.

Are you listening to yourself?

No, no, no. You have to break up with him.

Do you know what people say about divorced women?

Honey, people can say all they want,

but life is too short not to be happy.

Try to understand me, please.

Martha Patricia,

I'm talking to you.

Martha Patricia!

Did I hear correctly?

Do you want me to help you get divorced, mother-in-law?

Yes, you're a lawyer, right?

Yes, but...

I don't understand.

Why do you want to get divorced?

Because he's a jerk, he's a manipulator,

he takes advantage of us,

- because he stole our... - Is that the only reason?

Mother-in-law,

I don't want to interfere in your affairs,

but if there is any other reason,

such as a third party,

and it is proven,

you could lose parental rights over Ceci and Andrés.

Fresh from Cuba.

Go ahead.

I know things didn't go well last time.

You were right.

My wife and I were going through a rough patch

and those problems influenced the business.

But, well, that's over now,

and we're happy.

Because God blessed us with another baby.

My Consuelo is with child.

Pregnant?

- Yes. - And now you want

to sell diapers?

No. No, no, no.

I'm telling you this because...

I am now the only person in charge of the business,

which, by the way, is rising like hot air

thanks to a strategy I implemented.

I trained hundreds of women throughout the country

as sellers of our product

and thus created a large sales network.

Here are the results.

Please.

You sold all these?

In a single month,

but distribution is slow.

And that's where you come in.

Thanks to the large number of sales,

I can offer you a better profit margin.

How about 20%?

Of course, I would need an advance.

Honey, what are you doing here?

Do you feel sick?

When were you planning to tell me?

YOUR WIFE IS CHEATING ON YOU

It's not what you think.

I mean, yes, I lied to you

and I'm not proud of that, but...

it's not what you imagine.

Martha Patricia, for God's sake...

I hid it so you wouldn't see it.

I've been working at a magazine.

I wanted to try it out to see if I'm any good,

and I'm not bad at all.

I started with horoscopes,

but they published

- an article I wrote and... - I swear,

I don't know you.

I wanted to tell you, really, but...

I didn't know how you were going to take it.

Don't try to fool me.

Martha Patricia Portillo,

you met someone there, didn't you?

Yeah...

No, I mean,

there was a possibility with someone I was attracted to,

but...

it only made me realize

that I'm not interested in anyone else.

You're the one I love.

I thought we told each other everything.

That we had the same dream of...

starting a family.

Has your mom been putting ideas in your head?

What does my mom have to do with it?

She came to see me to help her get divorced.

So it's true.

Now surely you want to get divorced too.

No, of course not, it's just that...

I'm bored here all day and I really like my job.

And you prefer that to our family?

I'm just saying we are not in a hurry to get pregnant.

We can wait a little bit,

just a little bit.

We seem to want different things.

I think you have to decide what's most important to you.

Your job...

or your family.

Honey?

What is it?

Martha Patricia...

Don Aurelio, this way, please.

Remember to walk every day

and don't forget to take your medications.

Have a good day.

We brought you your lunch

and flowers.

Oh, it's nothing. I was distracted

and ran into a pole on the street,

but I'm fine.

- Really, I'm fine. - Irma, please help me...

It's nothing, really.

Well, I think Martha Patricia should do what she wants.

Her husband is right to be angry.

And how would you know?

Because Pedro called me, he's worried.

He asked me to convince her

to stop playing the working woman.

She's not playing, Martha is a very good writer.

Surely you've been giving her ideas.

Yes, of course, since we women can't think for ourselves.

Consuelo, not only are you ending your family,

but you're also going to end your daughter's

by giving her these ideas.

Do you realize what happens

when you stir up the chicken coop?

If Peter leaves her,

she won't find someone else like him.

If Pedro leaves her

because she wants to chase her dreams,

then he's not worth it.

To hell with dreams.

She should dedicate herself

to fulfilling her obligations as a wife.

Yes, she should fulfill her obligations as a wife.

You shut up.

You don't understand anything.

If a woman has to stop fulfilling

her family obligations to pursue her crazy dreams,

then it's best for someone else to do it.

Is that a threat?

No, it's a... warning.

Look at these shorts.

But these are all things for boys.

I'm sure our baby is a boy.

Fernando Junior Palomares.

Theresa...

While you were gone,

I...

Don't tell me,

it doesn't matter, the past is the past.

I forgive you.

And the important thing, my love,

is that we are together, you and me and our son.

You know what? I've been thinking

and I'd love for us to get away from here.

Start a new life,

together, the three of us.

We have a little problem,

where am I going to sleep?

And don't say with Andrés.

And Dad is using he couch.

You can sleep with me,

in my room.

- Really? - Really.

- In the big bed? - Yes.

You don't sleep with Dad?

Since when?

Sweetie, for a while,

things between your dad and me have been...

Oh, mom...

I don't want to end up like you.

I mean...

I feel like my life is in chaos.

I should have stayed at home.

And let your dream of being a writer die?

No, my love.

You even brought your typewriter.

What should I do? I don't want to lose Pedro.

He is...

I love him.

I really love him.

I know.

And that's why I find it so unfair

that women have to choose

between having a job or having a family.

Men do it all the time and nobody says a thing.

Yes, but they take care of the house, Mom.

Not all of them, my love.

There are many women who work

and don't want to depend on anyone.

In my company there are many saleswomen

who earn their own income.

Nowadays you have many options.

Think about it.

I'll support you in whatever you want.

I love you.

I love you too.

Mom.

Life is short.

No one has to put up with not being happy.

Your bed is too big.

I'd rather sleep with my favorite slug.

Hurry up, you're going to be late.

Coming.

What are you looking for?

They're for my friends.

I don't like those friends of yours.

Did you put these letters here?

Yeah right.

You know I don't mess around in there.

The person one goes in there is your dad.

And you say you're aphonic, right?

Consuelo?

What are you doing here?

What is it?

I need to talk to you.

What happened to you?

No, nothing.

Carlos Julio?

He already told the kids about us,

and he turned Andres against me.

He's capable of anything

in order to make my life impossible,

to manipulate me,

and I don't know what to do.

You know what? I swear, if he dares to mess with you,

I'm capable of anything too.

I asked him for a divorce.

I asked him.

But yesterday I went to talk to Pedro,

and he told me that if Carlos Julio

files a counterclaim

and has evidence that I was unfaithful to him,

he can keep parental rights over the children.

There must be some way to win that lawsuit.

He's the one who abandoned you,

the one who left you in ruins. I mean...

I know, and he's clearly the jerk of the story.

And believe me, I'm willing to spend every penny I have

on a lawyer to beat him, so I don't lose my children.

I'll be with you to the end.

How is my son?

How about we eat out...?

How could you hide my letters?

The letters.

Yes, I did it for your sake.

That girl didn't suit you.

How would know what's best for me?

You've never cared about anything in my life.

Don't talk to me like that, show more respect, I'm your dad.

You talk about respect

and you were just with your lover.

Look, son,

let's calm down,

let's talk.

Have one.

I think you're infatuated with that girl.

You and I are very similar.

We like money,

the good life.

Plus, I know you've been showing everyone the bike I gave you.

Do you really think that's it?

Here are the keys to your stupid motorcycle.

I know him, and I'm sure he's up to something.

Something to keep the business.

I'm sure it was him

who stole my account book.

But what he didn't count on is that I have everything here.

And how are we doing with that?

Bad.

We've barely sold 82.

So few?

Why so few?

No, that's impossible.

We need to sell those massagers like lipstick.

We have to do something,

don't you have another one of these?

And now we have to redouble our efforts

to sell more, so...

any ideas?

How about giving incentives to top sellers?

Like giving them a bonus.

I like that, that's a very good idea.

Or a massager for them.

What if we sell three for the price of two?

We can do one per month. Or per week...

- I like that idea. - Hey, Olga,

tell me about your experience with massagers.

Do you use them a lot?

No. No, not really.

About three times.

A month?

No, a week.

- Raquel! - Raquel?

Congratulations.

Plus 263.

263.

"Everyone knows someone

or has heard of those devices women

can use to give ourselves pleasure".

The head of her group, Marcela.

"It's an open secret,

a pact between women.

Because no one knows the power

that exists when women come together

and become masters of their own pleasure

and destiny."

It's a bombshell.

See? You found your own voice.

This has to go in the next edition.

But it's already closed.

It hasn't gone to press.

But it's missing something.

"And signed by Martha Patricia Rivapalacios."

Hello?

Yes, Ingrid I know, but...

that's the way it is.

We did our best to sell as much as possible,

but we'll see what happens.

Yes, I'll keep you posted.

Yes, goodbye.

Where is Olga?

I don't know, we were going to meet up here.

Let's get started, or should I bring coffee

and cookies so the ladies can gossip?

If you're in such a hurry,

why don't you start?

Show us your numbers.

No, ladies first.

Oh, what a gentleman.

Let's leave it to chance.

A coin flip.

Here you go.

- Heads. - Tails.

Tails.

Very well.

868 devices sold.

What do you think?

I'm sure you have receipts, right?

Of course, honey.

Right here.

What a distrustful wife, huh?

Your turn.

Matilde.

834.

Perfect, say no more.

There is a clear winner, and that winner is me.

Wait!

My last sales are missing.

No, no, the accounts are settled.

- No more sales. - Of course,

these are yesterday's sales,

so they count...

- It's 102. - I don't agree.

- That was the bet. - 102, what's the total?

- 936. - They shouldn't count.

936!

- I won't accept this. - We won.

937!

937. I'm buying one.

You too, sweetie?

We won, we won!

We did it!

Let's open the champagne.

You know that what I'm going to say is difficult for me

because I have never been a good loser.

But I accept it.

You won and I lost.

Is there anything else you want to tell me?

I don't want to go on with this stupid war, Consuelo.

And if I can't go back in time,

I can't force you to be with me either.

So...

if you want a divorce...

go ahead.

Do you mean it?

It hurts my soul,

but for the love we had and for our family,

I want to make things right.

Even if we separate, we can continue to be a family.

Here.

From now on,

you are the official owner of the business.

Just sign it and it's yours.

I can't believe it...

Thank you.

And do you have a big office at work?

It's actually a small desk.

But it's mine,

if you hadn't sent my writing sample to Panchita,

no one would have ever read me.

I owe you one, little girl.

Martha, you have a visitor.

What are you doing here?

We you really never going to talk to me?

You look so skinny.

Are you not eating well?

I miss you like hell.

I...

don't eat,

I don't sleep.

I miss you too,

a lot,

but you made me choose

and I'm not going to quit my job just because you don't like it.

I read the whole thing.

The girls in the office can't stop talking about it.

It's very good.

And it was obviously written by a great journalist and...

and a great woman,

who I dream of waking up next to

and spending every day with.

Does that mean...

That if you're happy,

I'm happy.

Are you OK? What did I say?

Theresa, please,

let me help you.

Of course.

I've seen you before...

You're Consuelo's husband.

Carlos Julio.

We don't know each other well, but...

we have a lot in common.

I sing outside your window

So you know that I love you

You may not love me too

But I'm dying for you.

They say that I'm mistaken...

Thank you for singing horribly,

- I had to come out and say... - I'll shut up, but...

let me come in.

Fine, I'll let you in.

Does that mean that...

maybe there's a chance that...

you and me...

And the blondie you were seeing?

I broke up with her.

Honestly I was an idiot.

But I've never stopped loving you.

This is for you.

How can we help you, sir?

I'm here to report my wife.

She is running an illegal business

and she's laundering money through a shell company.
