00:00And that's where you're wrong.
00:02And you've been wrong for a long time, my love.
00:05You guys don't forgive me.
00:07No, no.
00:09That's not true. We've never done anything to you.
00:13Your mom is right.
00:15Proof of that is that you're here, that you're with us.
00:19We've supported you in everything.
00:21Get that out of your head.
00:23You have to forgive yourself, my love.
00:27You know what?
00:28Stop psychoanalyzing me.
00:38We're just getting started.
00:39Architect De La Fuente.
00:42What are you doing here, Marilú?
00:44Weren't you invited to this meeting?
00:46I know, and believe me, I'm really sorry that I haven't worked in the last few days.
00:52That's right.
00:53And you let your personal problems influence your concentration.
00:56And since I can't keep waiting for you to get your act together,
00:59I've already assigned your project to someone else.
01:02Someone who did present solutions and resolved them by mobilizing negotiations.
01:07Architect, here's the contract with the observations you asked for.
01:13Thank you. Let's see.
01:17Erika?
01:19What are you doing here?
01:21You're the receptionist.
01:23No, Marilú. She's not anymore.
01:25Erika continues in the office now as an architect.
01:28And she's the new person in charge of the project that we took from you.
01:33Shall we begin?
01:34Let's go.
01:54I really can't believe you're behaving like this.
01:59And I can't believe you stole my job.
02:01It wasn't like that.
02:02I didn't steal it from you.
02:04The architect of the source was very stressed, very worried.
02:07And I only intervened with proposals, with ideas, with resolutions.
02:11And I did it so that the project wouldn't be lost and to help you.
02:15Well, I don't agree.
02:17You did it to compete with me.
02:19No, I didn't do it with that intention.
02:21I did it so that the project wouldn't be lost and to save your skin.
02:26Later, the architect of the source offered me to be the new project assistant
02:29because he recognized my talent for all the resolutions and ideas I gave him.
02:34And I couldn't reject the possibility of being promoted.
02:37And you forgot that you were going to take your friend between your legs, didn't you?
02:40And if you were really my friend, you would be happy for me.
02:43And you would understand that I have to see for my progress,
02:45instead of just reproaching me.
02:47Look, you know what? We'd better leave her here, okay?
02:49Because, really, I'm very angry with you and...
02:54And very disappointed.
03:08First they cancel my wedding.
03:12And now they cancel my project.
03:16It's going to be terrible.
03:19It's going to be terrible.
03:24I appreciate Erika.
03:25And I'm very grateful to her for everything she's done for you since you met.
03:31And I also know that you love each other like sisters.
03:35But...
03:38I feel that what she did to you in the architects' office is not right.
03:43I've seen them, Marilu. Erika and you.
03:46And I consider that there are many red flags of a toxic friendship.
03:51That Erika speaks ill of others in front of you.
03:53That you feel that they are competing.
03:55That she underestimates you in a subtle way.
03:58That she gets involved in your love relationships.
04:00That you have to justify her actions.
04:17Well, yes.
04:19I accept it.
04:22We're being toxic.
04:26I don't enjoy the time I spend with her anymore.
04:30I feel like I can't be myself anymore.
04:32Because she's always on the defensive.
04:36And...
04:38I don't know. I have no choice but to support her so that we don't fight anymore.
04:44No, it's just...
04:45That's your dose of toxicity.
04:49Because it's a matter of both.
04:51I mean, it's already a very high level of toxicity.
04:54That can affect them and separate them definitively
04:57if they don't do something to decontaminate themselves now.
05:06I've been doing everything to not lose another sister
05:08and now it turns out that Marilu despises me.
05:11You didn't expect her to congratulate you
05:13because she was hurt by someone who claims to be her friend, right?
05:16Well, she also claims to be my friend
05:18and she didn't behave like one when I told her I was doing well.
05:21Because you were the first one who hurt her with your actions.
05:25Now it turns out that that is also my fault.
05:28That's not what we're saying. That's not true.
05:32So everything is my invention?
05:35Her distance?
05:36Her apathy towards me since my little sister died because of my carelessness?
05:40All of this is an invention?
05:42No.
05:43The pain we suffered changed the lives of the three of us.
05:47And it's not an invention.
05:49But your dad and I have been able to move forward without that affecting us
05:53because we went to therapy.
05:57We supported each other.
05:59But you know what?
06:01We forgave each other.
06:03And that's where you're wrong.
06:04You've been wrong for a long time, my love.
06:07You don't forgive me.
06:09No, no.
06:11That's not true. We've never done anything to you.
06:15Your mom is right.
06:17Proof of that is that you're here.
06:19You're with us.
06:21We've supported you in everything.
06:23Get this out of your head.
06:25You have to forgive yourself, my love.
06:29You know what?
06:30Stop psychoanalyzing me.
06:32I've had enough of Marilu's rummy.
06:34And you know what?
06:35I'm not hungry anymore.
06:37Erika, please let me...
06:55Virgin of Guadalupe,
06:58please help Erika and me.
07:01Help us not to lose our friendship.
07:05To heal it.
07:08To stop being toxic friends
07:12so we can continue being like sisters.
07:17I'm begging you, my love.
07:30I'm begging you.
08:01Thank you for accepting us, Vic.
08:04These days have helped me calm down.
08:07To realize that I reacted badly out of jealousy,
08:09but that the love I feel for you is greater.
08:12I love you too.
08:17But it hurt me a lot that you didn't trust me.
08:20Without giving me the opportunity to express myself,
08:22I would have never been able to do it.
08:25I'm sorry.
08:26It hurt me a lot that you didn't trust me.
08:29Without giving me the opportunity to express myself,
08:32I would have never been able to do it.
08:35I'm sorry, but jealousy made me act badly.
08:39Thinking that you didn't love me,
08:41seeing you with your ex,
08:42I reacted badly.
08:43But I promise you that I'm going to take therapy.
08:47And I won't hurt you again.
08:50Well,
08:52if you agree to marry me.
08:54Of course I do.
08:58We love each other.
09:00And I accept that we resume our engagement.
09:02No, no, no.
09:03We're not just going to resume it.
09:05Tomorrow we get married as civilians.
09:07Do you accept?
09:08Of course I do.
09:14I love you.
09:15I love you.
09:21Oh, come on, Marilu.
09:22I really don't have time.
09:23The architect of the fountain will arrive at any time
09:25the meeting starts.
09:28Yes, but I didn't want to let more time pass
09:30without solving what is happening to us.
09:33We're being toxic.
09:36What?
09:37Is it a joke?
09:39Are you calling me toxic
09:40when all I've done is take care of you and protect you
09:43since the day I met you?
09:45Besides, I've loved you like a sister.
09:48At first I also denied it.
09:50And then I realized
09:51that that was also a sign of toxicity
09:53when I talked to Jessica.
09:56That rummy of yours that brings me between eyebrows.
09:59Don't you realize that what you want is to separate us?
10:01Please, Marilu, it's obvious.
10:04No, Erika, it's not like that.
10:07And I'm not going to stop saying what I feel
10:10because I don't want to continue being toxic.
10:13Oh, look, you know what?
10:14If that's all you have to say,
10:16it's fine up to here.
10:18Unless you want to make time
10:19for the architect of the fountain to arrive
10:21with Aldo, your ex, and you find him.
10:24No, that's not all.
10:26I need to tell you that tomorrow I'm marrying Victor.
10:29We'll make up and...
10:31What?
10:33No!
10:34I don't agree.
10:36The first one already showed you
10:37that he's a jealous macho.
10:40Besides, you don't love him, Marilu.
10:42I love him.
10:43And anything you say or do
10:45will make him doubt again.
10:46But they're going to separate you from me.
10:49They're going to separate you from me
10:50and you're going to suffer.
10:52Neither Victor nor Aldo are good for you.
10:55Remember Fernando, your first boyfriend,
10:57who just wanted to make fun of you.
11:00And I was there to take care of you and protect you.
11:04Besides, you promised me
11:05that you would always be my sister.
11:07And I want that.
11:09And because I love you like a sister,
11:12nothing hurts me anymore.
11:14And Ana,
11:16nothing would make me happier
11:17than you being with me on my wedding day.
11:19No!
11:20I'm not going to witness
11:22how you ruin your life.
11:27It's going to hurt.
11:30But I'm going to marry the love of my life,
11:34even if the toxicity between us
11:36doesn't allow you to see it.
11:39And the fact that I'm fulfilling myself
11:41in other aspects of my life,
11:43that doesn't mean that we have to separate.
11:48It's not necessary that you don't want me to marry Victor
11:50so that you can be happy,
11:53like you thought when you took my job
11:56so that you could feel fulfilled.
12:00Oh, damn!
12:03Look at how beautiful you think of me.
12:07And you know what?
12:08If you think that,
12:09ruin your life and marry Victor.
12:11And let your friend Jessica
12:13be the one who accompanies you to the wedding.
12:16Because I won't.
12:17Everyone has a life.
12:23Yes.
12:26Everyone has a life.
12:41Yes.
12:51Jessica is doing a live broadcast
12:53of my sister's wedding?
13:05No!
13:06It can't be!
13:07My sister is getting married!
13:09No!
13:10You can't take my sister away from me again!
13:12No!
13:33Marilu!
13:34Marilu!
13:35Marilu!
13:37Marilu!
13:40I'm sorry.
13:41I'm sorry.
13:42I didn't know you were getting married
13:43and that you were getting pregnant.
13:44I'm sorry.
13:45Ma'am, what's wrong?
13:46Why are you so upset?
13:48I had to tell you.
13:51Erica had an accident.
13:53No.
13:54She was run over.
13:56My daughter is dying.
13:58My daughter is dying.
14:11Thank you for coming, Marilu.
14:13Don't mention it, Mr. Lorenzo.
14:14How is Erica?
14:16Fine.
14:17The doctor came to tell me
14:18that Erica only suffered minor injuries.
14:21No internal damage.
14:23She'll be discharged soon.
14:27Good morning.
14:29Are you Erica Contreras Aguilera's parents?
14:31Yes.
14:32I'm the agent
14:33at the hospital's Public Ministry.
14:35I'm here to report that Erica
14:37is pregnant.
14:38I'm the agent
14:39at the hospital's Public Ministry.
14:40Yes, tell us, agent.
14:42There's something I need you to see
14:43about the investigation
14:44that we officially initiated
14:45for the run over of your daughter.
14:47Please come with me.
14:51Honey, why don't you go with Marilu?
14:53I'll stay here
14:54in case you need anything
14:55regarding our daughter.
14:57Yes, fine.
14:58Let's go.
14:59Come with me.
15:02We took the driver's statement.
15:04He insisted that it wasn't an accident
15:06and that the young woman threw herself.
15:10No, it can't be.
15:12We've already started the investigation.
15:13We requested the security footage
15:15from the scene of the accident.
15:18I'll show them to you now.
15:31It's true.
15:35Erica deliberately threw herself into the car.
15:41It's important that she take immediate action.
15:43She acted in consequence.
15:45She must be taken to a psychiatrist
15:47because she may try again.
15:53I'm sorry, Erica.
15:54I'm sorry.
15:55I'm sorry.
15:56I'm sorry.
15:57I'm sorry.
15:58I'm sorry.
15:59I'm sorry.
16:01I'm sorry.
16:20Come in.
16:22Welcome, Erica.
16:26Thank you, Mom.
16:27What I wanted the most after three months
16:29of being hospitalized in the psychiatric clinic
16:32was to finally be home.
16:35I had the opportunity to talk to my teacher,
16:37the psychiatrist, before Erica's release
16:39and he told me that he reacted very well
16:41to the treatment and the medication.
16:45I'm also going to therapy
16:48with a psychologist that Jessica recommended to me
16:50to heal the toxicity that was between us
16:54and be ready to receive you
16:56and continue with our brotherhood.
16:59I've always appreciated you, Erica.
17:01And I'm very happy to see you at peace.
17:04And that's how I feel, Mrs. Sonia.
17:06I was so toxic that I got to turn my head.
17:09But now with the medication, I feel much better.
17:13And so you will continue, my love.
17:15And we will be here supporting you as always.
17:19Thank you, Dad.
17:21You were right.
17:23Well, both were right.
17:26The most valuable thing about these three months
17:28was that it gave me the opportunity
17:30to forgive myself for losing my little sister.
17:33And you too.
23:20There are red flags that can show us that a relationship is being toxic, and toxicity
23:49is not exclusive to relationships of love.
23:52There are also toxic friendships that if we do not undergo therapy, can grow until
23:57we reach an obsession in which medication has to intervene, so that the mind is cleared
24:04and detoxification allows our love and affection to flow in a healthy and nutritious way,
24:11so that nothing prevents us from being able to share with happiness and emotion all
24:15the time.
