No.

Right now you and I are alive.

The same as Natasha,

but she isn't born yet.

And we'd like to think

we'll meet in another life.

- After death.

- Sure.

But after thousands of years

believing in gods,

Man has no proof

that the soul is immortal.

What I want to say is that...

when I found out I might be leaving,

my worst fear was Dani.

What would happen to him,

the one I love most in the world.

Don't be jealous.

Though it doesn't matter if you are jealous.

It's only natural

among brothers and sisters.

I bet you're laughing, it's so silly!

But...

if you don't believe in Heaven,

what do you believe in?

What do I believe in? In life.

It's the only thing

we know we've got.

In enjoying it without sacrificing

for the hereafter.

Though maybe it exists.

We have to be as happy as we can.

First with ourselves,

and then by encouraging

those around us.

So, honey, even if I go

you'll have your brother Dani

and your dad, Arturo,

the best dad you both could have.

And they'll love you to bits.

What do you do to live happy?

Try to get close to the things

that give us pleasure

and stay away from the things

that give us pain.

- But in good measure.

- What measure?

Don't hurt or be bad to anyone.

Or to ourselves.

I understand you now.

You're a good teacher.

But don't just listen to me.

Listen to everyone.

To Arturo, your father, Julin...

to Natasha

when she starts to ask questions.

Listen, as best you can,

and come to your own conclusions.

Mama, you're a great teacher.

Thanks, honey.

Thanks for telling me that.

Well, my girl,

I hope you don't forget me.

If at any time

you want to see your mama

in body and soul,

then put on this video.

I love you, Natasha!

That's why we stay alive.

Would you like to baptize Natasha?

I'd understand.

I want to ask you something, honey.

Whatever you want.

Call Ral, Dani's father.

Ask him to come see us.

Tell him about my disease,

then I'll speak to both of you.

Thank you.

Hello, Ral.

This is Dani's home.

I want him to keep living here,

with Arturo

and his little sister, Natasha.

You can still see him under

the usual divorced father system.

My wish is that you two agree

to take turns,

vacations, weekends

and, of course, education.

A little philosophy wouldn't hurt

our soccer player.

I'll comply with your wish, Magda.

Don't you worry.

But first I want

to ask you something, Magda.

Forgive me.

Forgive me.

Forgive me.

Of course I forgive you.

Of course.

And I want you to know...

that in those first years

when I was your Aphrodite,

you made me very happy. Very.

Thank you.

The whistle's about to blow!

Come on!

C'mon, one goal

and we're the champions.

Go, Dani!

Dani. go! Go!

Goal!

MAMA, ARTURO, NATASHA

I LOVE YOU:

Mama!

I passed everything!

What?

I passed everything.

Math and Language too.

That's great!

Honey, that makes me so happy.

Next year I want you to get

good grades from the start.

With you as my teacher,

it's a breeze.

Honey!

- Hello!

- What are you doing here? Hey!

I came to see you.

Look at this.

So you stopped being a singer

so you could cure mothers.

You're doing great with me.

You should come to my office

to get more tests.

No!

The best test is your face.

It says you don't know how,

but this is going strong.

I have an extraordinary nature.

Yes. That's true.

At this rate we're going

to break a lot of molds.

And has your wife forgiven you

for not going to Siberia?

We're separating.

Look.

The two men of the house

watching movies.

Which one is it?

"El Cid", in the conquest of Valencia.

He's dead, but tied to a horse

so the soldiers don't find out.

I want Arturo

to take me to the beach.

Tell him it'll do me good.

I've got such good memories

of last year.

Go on! Just a few days.

To celebrate our anniversary.

It already smells like the sea.

There's nothing better.

Do you know that Arturo

and I are celebrating our first anniversary?

And I want to tell you

that with you I've had

the best year of my life.

It's a boob.

Dani!

It has an inscription.

"You are our life.

Natasha, Dani and Arturo".

Thanks, honey.

It's lovely, Dani.

One...

Two...

Three... Four...

Five...

Six...

- Seven...

- Seven, eight, nine...

- One thousand?

- That's easy.

Have nice dreams.

Look, a gynecologist

in swimming trunks!

How do you feel?

Very tired.

But I'm 8 months pregnant,

so that's normal.

You look great.

Sun and sea really suit me.

May I examine you?

You just got here.

- Shall we go into the sea?

- Yes.

I want to dedicate a song to a friend.

How am I, Doctor?

Approaching the goal, right?

This is for you, Magda.

To your beautiful madness.

For everything

you've already given us.

And for everything

you're going to leave us.

Magda, you have to consider

going back to Madrid.

- Why? Am I in a bad way?

- You're doing great.

You're telling me.

But you should be admitted

until you go into labor.

Cry because you're afflicted

with a great pain.

A great pain.

Fight to fulfill! your dream.

What a dream.

Laugh because happiness

has caught up with you,

it has caught up with you.

It's living, it's living.

It's living.

Speak, think,

dream,

cry, fight,

laugh,

feel, love,

suffer,

That is living!

It's living.

Speak, think,

dream,

cry, fight,

laugh,

feel, love,

suffer,

dream of that which was ours,

hold on to your passions,

always keep walking straight ahead,

even if you have to suffer...

That is living!

Here, it's for you.

Thank you.

How old is she here?

Five.

- Will I see her when she's five?

- Of course.

Really? it's that easy?

You're not going to bet?

Come on, Julin,

I'm not in the water now.

Here, in your medium,

you can tell me the truth.

What's the plan?

We have to do the Cesarian now.

You girl's fine.

And she won't need an incubator.

Will I see her? I will?

And then what?

You're going to destroy my cells again

with the pretty skin I have now?

We'll see, you decide.

Julin,

you're an artist.

Give my girl tons and tons of culture.

Okay?

- See you soon.

- Okay.

- He knows you're sick now.

- Well, we'll discuss my illness later.

Now I'm getting Natasha taken out

and I'll be back later, okay?

Who's she?

Natasha, when she's five.

I want her to have brown hair

and look like you.

Me too.

Sure! Genes! Fine.

We'll see when we look in her eyes.

Then we'll meet up

and decide who she looks like.

Okay.

Arturo.

Thanks.

Thank you, honey.

For everything you've done for me.

Leave me alone with Dani for a moment.

Your children are my children.

And you're my only God.

Dani, do you have an idea now

what happens to the soul

when the body dies?

No.

- Have you thought it over?

- Not yet.

Well, never mind.

You'll have time to think it over.

But I'm sure of one thing.

The soul never dies.

That's right!

Mine will go wherever you want it to.

You're the thing I love most

in the world.

Your sister knows that,

so if she ever gets jealous,
