TUESDAY & WEDNESDAY 31ST JULY & 1ST AUGUST 2018......UPDATE ON "THE THREE SIDES OF ANA"
EPISODE #66/67 AND #68/69
TUESDAY.....31/07/18
Recap posted below
Where I came in is Inaki and BadAna negotiating, he wants sex she wants info they take it to the bedroom where she deplores his decorating taste and taunts/teases him w her memories of her, ahem, exploits w/Marcelo in this very room. He tells her he'll be better than Marcelo b/c Marcelo didn't really know her and Inaki does, for example, he knows she went to Costa P to kill Jenny, Santiago told him when Jenny died and BadAna's return flight was a whole hour later. Ha! And he doesn't believe her when she says it was an accident, why would she have hidden the trip if her intent wasn't murder.
Bad Ana strikes back telling Inaki she knows he killed Daniel, he covers pretty well till she says her friend saw him and describes his motivations to kill in detail, Daniel had the love he was denied, she brings him to tears. He has a flashback and it looks like she's right. Threats are exchanged and BadAna gets all excited over having the upper hand, she has proof he killed, he's just assuming. But Inaki isn't having fun and she leaves him to compose himself cuz crying turns her off.
FreeSpirit wants to go to the hospital but Sole and Remedios and Fac say no. Maribel feels sorry for her though and will help her find out the name of the hospital. (is she not allowed to use the phone, seems like she could call around to the hospitals herself and find out)
My girl Maribel (I still like her even though she's not perfect) can keep a secret. When Orlando comes over and demands to know what she and FreeSpirit were talking bout she tells him it was all about FreeSpirit and Santiago's first time, wanna hear? Orlando of course is completely turned off.
Remedios is tearfully asking her late hubby for a sign and Tadeo knocks (helloo sign) offering his support and understanding and telling her bout his ex stuff and Daniel dying.
Said ex is all up in her dead son's room crying over his laundry and making her husband look all uncomfortable and constipated so he goes off to pour himself a drink and call someone to look into her past.
Calm!Inaki meets up w/BadAna in the living room where she tells him knowing he's a murderer turns her on (ahh psychopath love) Daniel never killed for her though he was willing, but Inaki she can see has no limits. He wants to know if she'd be willing to kill for him, she says first he has to make her fall in love w/him then we'll see, but she won't get a divorce. Trying to convince her to change her mind on that Inaki tells her all about Santiago and his new life. She's incredulous and gets pissed when he tells her the new woman is unique and beautiful. (he's enjoying having that secret from her, he better keep it, its the only secret he's got left, she's scary good at grabbing the upper hand)
She sashsays out and leaves Inaki unsatisfied.
Analu takes Val's mom her supper tray and asks her for a third opinion on whether she should go to the hospital. Val's mom says sure you should and face the wife upfront to prove you're not just a mistress, so FreeSpirit asks her to help her escape the pension. Some back and forth on whether or not she will but she ultimately agrees to help
Val's mom also has a flashback to being a total b$@%ch when she caught Val and Gina in bed together, she started out calling Gina a sex worker and somehow got more insulting from there when Valentin told her she was his novia. She still really hates Gina.
Ramiro comes to the pension to see FreeSpirit Sole doesn't want him to and they talk about that for a while, he, credulous soul, thinks she will give Analu up one day. Anyway he's got a recording of Santiago telling FreeSpirit he's gonna be ok and please don't come to the hospital. CMTELLYUPDATE
Next morning Val's mom offers to babysit Analu so Sole can go to work since, ya know she can't be trusted alone since she fell in love w/the wrong man. Val's mom knows how that goes, her son fell for a baaad woman, count on her to keep Analu from doing anything crazy. Sole leaves and they plot to get FreeSpirit to that hospital while Orlando watches from behind a tree. FreeSpirit (her spirit may be free, but her wings are really running into some cage bars right now) is ready to leave but Orlando blocks the door. They argue, they aren't friends no mo and she kicks him in the groin and heads out w/her accomplice.
BadAna taunts Leonore bout Llora being her favorite and then yells at her b/c she's mad about being the last to know Marcelo has amnesia. Also she wants to know what that hope was Leonore mentioned when she thought she was talking to Llora and gets more pissed when Leonore won't tell.
Abue goes and yells at Santicelo for a while and poor Santi just gives up on explaining and takes it (and I tune out and use my RPC, so I may have missed something, I'm just so annoyed at her for treating a man who's confined to a hospital bed this way) Part of the reason she's so mad is she felt responsible for his "accident" which is news to him and he asks why and she explains about the investigation to find Analu, constantly asking him doesn't he remember and more verbal abuse and now she demands to know if he really found a clue, did he really find her granddaughter, and he looks majorly conflicted. Facundo comes in and saves him with he's got the amnesia, and now Abue is all apologies and we missed you so much. (whatever) CMTELLYUPDATE
Ramiro goes to his dad's house to get the deets on Gina's life/lies/betrayal of just about everyone. His dad catches him and yells at him (again RPC on the verbal abuse) and sez he destroyed all Ramiro's papers and stuff so there and get out.CMTELLYUPDATE
Dad lied, its all there in the middle drawer Ramiro didn't look in.
Analu and Val's mom get to the hospital, Analu is nervous and Val's mom is excited for her and goes to prepare the way/find out if the coast is clear/find out where Santi actually is. She goes in and asks the nurse for Santiago and Llora comes forward to ask why she's asking after her brother in law, and now Val's mom knows Analu has sisters, and she bout has an attack and Llora looks concerned and patiently explains again that Santiago is her brother in law/married to her sister, and Val's mom is all you have sisters? and Llora figures out she's friends w/the other woman and starts asking more questions.
FreeSpirit gets impatient waiting outside and decides to take her chances and head in and that's it for this episode.........

Face To Face With Destiny-Or Not
Parte 1 -
DARING DESTINY
Whack a mole’s got nothing on this episodio of cat and mouse patrol. Just as all Hell is about to break loose inside the hospital lobby, Ramiro appears out of nowhere and catches Ana Lucia by the arm. He tells her she knows Santiago does not want her at the hospital. She insists nobody’s stopping her from seeing the man she loves. “--No doubt it was his father standing there making him say that just to keep me away.” Ram insists it isn’t like that (but oh, it is, isn’t it). “They can all come down and pitch a fit and it still won’t get me out of the way; I’ll still speak to Santiago.” Well, if she’s going, he won’t let her enter through the front door. He pulls her around out of view of the entrance and continues while Narina and Ana Laura continue their confused conversation in the front lobby.
Narina explains how she met Marcelo in the boarding house. Is Narina the owner? No, she clarifies, she’s the friend of the owner. (Nice touch, Narina.) Why, with all his money, would he rent a room there? Narina learns that they lost contact with Marcelo, A Llora’s BIL, three years ago and that all believe he did it purposely to make his wife and the family think he’d died so he could desert his wife and the rest of them. “All the people we love die or abandon this family: my two parents, my sister, Ana Lucia…--” “--y-y-y-your sister?” “--It was terribly cruel.” Now things are beginning to become clear to Narina. “--No, you don’t understand. The poor boy lost his memory after a horrible accident three years ago. He’s just now by chance coming face to face with his old life and memories.”
Ana Lucky makes it clear that she’s going to put up a fuss with that family and if she comes face to face with his insulting witch of a wife, the woman’s going to get a piece of her mind, no ifs, no ands, no buts!!!!! Ram tries to make her see it from the family and the wife’s side of things. Hey, she says, what’s to understand? He’s with her now and chose her over the wife cuz the wife was already cheating on him with another man and he’s asked for a divorce. Lucky had to listen to so much garbage out of that woman on the phone and bite her tongue not to answer. That woman insulted her and made her feel less than dirt.
Ram tries explaining that despite all of that, she really loved the guy and suddenly, over night, he reappears in her life—but not to come back to her, but to ask her for a divorce because he’s in love with another woman: she’s lost the man she loves twice in her life now. (Too bad; Viewerville believes she should have thought of that when she diddled with Danielito and devised his deadly demise.)
Back at the manse, Ana Leticia is running late and sneaks into Ernestina’s office to search for her earrings. She grabs the key to unlock one of the drawers and finds instead of earrings, Ana Lucia’s gold I.D. bracelet. She hears Leonora and throws the baggie back into the box and into the drawer. She makes the mistake of leaving the key in the drawer as she greets Leonora and lies about grabbing her abue’s glasses for her. Once A MiMi is out of the house, Leo checks the desk, wisely distrusting her, and sees the key hanging from the lock.
Outside the hospital, Iñaki suddenly appears and somehow they work it out to sneak Lucky in past everyone and everything to keep her out of sight.
Meanwhile, Narina’s been on pins and needles worried that Ana Lucia and Ana Laura or worse, the wife/sister will run into each other. Narina tells A Llora that it isn’t her place to tell her the why’s and what-for’s regarding whatever Marcelo’s might or might not be (such as being his wife’s sister’s lover) for keeping away from them. The two ladies break up the conversation and go together for a quick visit with SanMarco.CMTELLYUPDATE
At the same time, Edmundo, Ram’s papi, makes an apprehensive call to someone advising that his son is again fixating on the idea that his friend was the object of a murder plot but this time he won’t be able to send him out of the country to school for three years. He’s thus leaving it in the “somebody’s” hands. (Three guesses who that somebody is.)
In the coffee shop, Papi FU, explains the amnesia to Erni, specifically leaving out anything to do with Ana Lucia. She apologizes profusely and offers a room in her manse so that SanMarco can recuperate and again be rejoined with his wife. FU says that’s a great idea as Marcelo’s place is with his wife and the social class to which he was born.
At the dress shop, Soledad informs Viridiana that Santiago is now out of danger and she is back to work. Viridiana is sad, though, as her best friend’s son has just died. However, the mood changes when Mariano appears to ask her out to lunch. Vi leaves the shop in Ceci’s hands and she heads off with Mo. A blond bombshell of a customer arrives just then and is needing assistance. She mentions to Ceci that she knows Mo very well—who wouldn’t and is glad as all get-out that his fiancee is worm food. Blondie has a flashback to herself in long curls, kissing him on her way out the bachelor pad door after some show-time in the sheets.
At the hospital, A Llora walks back into SanMarco’s room. She looks and acts somewhat different compared to the last time they chatted, mentions SanMarco. A Llora plays dumb. She’s got a lady with her that’s explained he’d been victim of amnesia the past three years. Is that true.? Yup. The woman wants to speak with you. Narina enters and A Llora leaves the room. Ok! So, he says he thought it was going to be Remedios. Heck, no! Your daddy made such a fuss he got her thrown out of the place, says Nerina. But yes, she knows why now—that girl is identical to Ana Lucia!! They’re sisters!! She’s her twin!! How could Santi??? He quickly warns her that A Lucky cannot know anything about this!! Well the girl is outside the hospital this very moment!! She’s desperate to see you (and got everyone who knows anything with their heart in their throats trying to keep her out of view)!! There’s a lot she needs explained, he admits, but it cannot be now; there’s no time for it. Get her out of here ASAP!
Out in the lounge, Ram leads the family away by taking them all out to eat at a nearby restaurant. Inside, Yaki keeps Lucky out of the way of the family by hiding her in the side hallway. Narina leaves and A Lucky finally gets her chance to see Santi. They cuddle and kiss and kiss and cuddle (--once the vain Santi remembers to take out the oxygen tubes. Guess he’s recovering damned fast at that!) Basta! Her witchy triplet is flying her broomstick at full speed towards the hospital parking lot.
Narina runs into A MiMi on the way out of the hospital. Narina is impactada en grande to see A Lucky is not just a twin, but a one third of a troupe of triplets! She quickly determines (as do we all) that this is the wife of el pobre de Santiago and that it’s no wonder he wants a divorce from this witch!
Nerina stalls for time by telling Ana Leticia how she’s met her sister, Ana Laura, and that she mentioned Ana Lucia. A MiMi sneers at her and comments that yes, they lost their mother and father in a terrible accident 20+ years ago, Ana Lucia was lost, and Ana Laura lost her leg. A pity that her sister always seems to find somebody to share her sympathy-seeking story with. She looks down her perfect nose at Narina and snidely continues. “--I understand your sick fascination. Buy yourself a life lady and stop involving yourself in others’ lives. I detest meddlesome busybody biddies like you!” She turns on her 6 inch CFM heels and enters the hospital. Narina frantically prays to Dios that A Lucky and A Lemeeeee do not run into each other. (Viewerville, however, is more than ready for that encounter—Big Time!)
Santi and Ana Lucky continue telling each other how much they love each other and that he’s going to move back into Rem’s rooming house once he’s out of there. (Something tells me that’s not how it’s going to play out—especially if Papi FU and wifey have anything to do with it!!)CMTELLYUPDATE
A MiMi arrives in the lounge on the floor SanMarco’s being kept Papi’s prisoner. Guard dog, Yaki, is there at the ready and he and Lemeee exchange words about who is really a friend and would a friend really try stealing his friend’s wife away from him? Oh, well he’s there as Santiago’s friend, not Marcelo’s, so in this case you can throw that reasoning out the window along with the pot o’ urinal wastage you’re trying to make me swallow, he intimates. “--Give it up, Ana Leticia. Your husband no longer loves you or wants you in his life. It’s not long now before he gets divorced from you.” “--Have you told him you’re interested in me?” NO. What’s the point? He’s not my friend. Santiago is. Look, he says, I will if you want. Right now (he gambles) but I have nothing to lose. N-O-T-H-I-N-G. Your hubby loved you, yes. But that love died when he lost his memory. That man no longer exists. She insists that that love is still there and will come to the surface eventually, along with the whole man, and that passion will be stronger than ever it was before. She starts for SanMarco’s room so Yaki lies that he’s gone for a couple of hours worth of tests. She says she’ll wait. He talks her into going for coffee with him.
Meanwhile, Santi talks Lucky into leaving to avoid any sort of nasty fight. That is the last thing he wants to see.--her getting insulted by his wife, etc. I should say that he eventually talks her into leaving.
Narina finally runs into A Lucky outside SanMarco’s hospital room, sobbing because he’s told her not to come back there; he’s forbidden her to do so! Narina suggests leaving before possibly running into his wife. Why? Is she actually there? Has Narina seen her there or what? Narina says yes and begs her to leave. Finally she just grabs Lucky’s hand and drags her off and out to explain the little she intends to. All of Viewerville breathes easy—except for me who simply sighs at not having said confrontation scene. Bummerrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Narina finally runs into A Lucky outside SanMarco’s hospital room, sobbing because he’s told her not to come back there; he’s forbidden her to do so! Narina suggests leaving before possibly running into his wife. Why? Is she actually there? Has Narina seen her there or what? Narina says yes and begs her to leave. Finally she just grabs Lucky’s hand and drags her off and out to explain the little she intends to. All of Viewerville breathes easy—except for me who simply sighs at not having said confrontation scene. Bummerrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Parte 2
MADNESS AS MOTIVATION OR KEEPING MUM ABOUT !!! MUMMY
In the coffee shop, Yaki hits a sore spot with A MiMi by commenting that her Uncle Mo has made lunch reservations for two somewhere. She gripes that it has to be that Viridriana woman. Yaki notes that Mo’s girlfriends don’t sit at all well with her. “--Is that what drives you to kill?” She throws something at him in angry protest. He’s always been like a father to her, she insists. Now in her most needful hour he deserts her to gallivant off with that woman! Yaki tells her to let him live his life and be done with it already. Anyway, she has him on her side now. She wrinkles her nose. Thanks, but it’s not the same. He invites her to eat since Ram’s invited the rest of the family out to eat and they’ll be a while. She sneers she’d rather eat alone and leaves him with the check which he, characteristically, skips out on and avoids paying.
A MiMi shows up at the restaurant where Mo and Vi have gone. She shows up just as Mo has mentioned to Vi that he’s hoping she’s hoping the same as he is hoping….that there could be more than just friendship in this relationship of theirs. MiMi sits herself down and insinuates herself in between the two of them and guilts them into politely (something she could never do herself) accepting her presence. Vi heads off to the ladies’ room. Mo hints broader than broadly that A MiMi is a third wheel and should scramola, she gets in a snit. She heads for the girls’ room. When the two women end up together in the “powder room”, powdering their pug noses, MiMi and she spar over the quality of the [gun] powder they’re using. When the two return to the table, Mo tells Vi that Ana Leticia has to be going now and A MiMi takes the hint, somewhat non-plussed at being rejected this time, and leaves with her out-of-joint pug perfectly powdered, but still out of joint.
A Lucky and Narina arrive home and find that Sole has come home early. They lie about the trip to the museum. Sole’s not fooled. Narina tells Sole rather abruptly to have Rem see her as soon as possible once she arrives back from the market.
Yaki fills Santi in about all the shenanigans and lies in trying to get Lucky in without The Family finding out. No harm, no foul. Santi mentions how Lemee has asked for a reconciliation and how he still is in love with both sisters. Yaki says “I told you so” and if he’d only listened to him and run off with the coastal girl Santi wouldn’t be in such a compromising position right now. As it is, Santi now runs the risk of losing both of the women he loves. Both women will end up hating him once they learn the truth about “the other woman”. His best bet is to high tail it out of there ASAP with Ana Lucia and forget the rest of them all. SanMarco is torn and cannot deal. He admits it. Well, says Yaki, it is certain that Ana Leticia is determined to find out just who the “other woman” is. “--Trust me, brother. If and when she does you’ll wish you were dead.” Santi swallows hard.CMTELLYUPDATE
Back at Rem’s roomer, Rem and Narina begin to talk, but Sole rushes in and demands to be heard as well, especially since it’s her they’re gossiping about. Narina accuses both of them (sort of) of hiding the truth about the crime Sole committed by keeping Ana Lucia unjustly from her loving family for all these years. Sole and Rem manage to turn the conversation into some sort of self-righteous privileged protection plan. She has no right to second guess Sole, harrumph! (Pardon me, but she does, screams Viewerville in righteous indignation!! Check with the law-and it matters little how well you took care of her nor how happy she might now be. It was not legally your choice to keep her, y punto!) Nerina remarks that her kids may have screwed her over, but she at least didn’t kidnap someone else’s little girl, keeping them away from their rightful family for and to herself, a criminal act!) Ana Lucia hasn’t the least idea that she has a family who thinks she’s dead all these years, let alone two sisters IDENTICAL to herself!! (Basta with Soledad’s misplaced self-righteousness, and Remedios’s shameless complicity in all of this! Viewerville expected more vitriol from the offended Narina, but got none.) However, as much as she refuses to be their accomplice in this crime, she’ll keep their secret. She folds like a wet dollar bill. (Shees!)
Now, back at the manse, Erni announces to Ram, A Llora and Leo that SHE and Facundo have decided that Marcelo’s to recuperate there at his wife’s side in the manse with his rightful family, and with the woman he loves. WRONG! Ram interjects that he didn’t mention it before but, Marcelo’s asked that woman he [still] loves for a divorce. He’s got another life now since losing his memory. At this poor Erni has another attack of high blood pressure and faints.

THERE ARE THREATS & THERE ARE THREATS........
Cardio Family Friend and his wife race to the manse so he can tend to her. Ana MiMi puts up a stink blaming Erni’s insistence in finding Ana Lucia as the possible reason for this fainting spell again. Everyone denies knowing anything. Leo finally tells her that the fact Ram and A Llora informed Doña Ernestina that she couldn’t have Marcelo recuperating under the same roof as A MiMi now because he’d already asked her for a divorce is what caused her abuela to faint. She didn’t even know the man had lost his memory. Mo perks up at that. “Amnesia?” Wonderful!
Upstairs Cardio FF tells her this quest for Ana Lucia will be the death of her. She insists she won’t die till she’s found and back in the bosom of her family.CMTELLYUPDATE
Downstairs A Lemeee starts in on Mo. Seems you are rather relieved to learn he’s forgotten everything and what we had before. He tries excusing himself if that’s what it seemed like. She starts nagging about what the two of them are hiding. He accuses her of acting foolish and says if she knew this then why not tell him. Lemeeeee has a temper tantrum and says he was too busy making lunch dates with Vi to take time with her and hear it. Doc comes in and reports his findings. Mo goes outside to look for Ram and A Llora to fill them in. Lemeee races upstairs to be the first to see Granny.
Outside Mo warns Ram off going upstairs. Only A Llora and her sister are permitted. A Llora heads inside. Mo asks Ram if this amnesia is for real or only another dirty trick in trying to hide from the rest of the family for the last three years.
SanMarco is dreaming now and remembers the confrontation over “that woman” and how Mo tricked him into whatever just to get her off his back (whose we don’t know yet). When he awakes he finds Valentin sitting next to his bed. He and we all wonder how the heck he got in, considering! SanMarco doesn’t remember him. “--You don’t remember the man whose life you destroyed?”
Back in the driveway, Ram informs Mo that it’s no dirty trick and it ain’t been no party either, for any of them. “--What did he tell you and if you weren’t there, how’d you know anything about what happened with Gina?” “--That you and he were in the room with her those last few hours.” --So if he has amnesia how does he know enough to tell you all this?” Ram explains that the memories appear suddenly, but are mismatched (like parts of a jigsaw puzzle) and rolling around. He remembered holding that pistol at her while Mo stood silently by and watched him force her write down that dictated suicide note to Ram. What happened afterward is still a mystery and the only one to know that is Mo himself. But, he’s not ready to talk, so Ram suspects it’s not convenient for him to tell him all. Mo warns Ram off it again. “--I am not thinking to dig up the past about something so painful for all of us. “
Ram disagrees vehemently. He was the one about to marry the woman when this happened and he blames himself for it all. He has a right to know exactly what went on back then, he tells Mo!! Mo asks what for.? It happened so long ago, right? Ram tells him he wants whoever is to blame to pay for that crime, that’s what. Mo warns Ram to watch his tone of voice and not to ruin his future or his present with something from the distant past. He can count on his support with A Llora but only if…..Oh, is Mo threatening him? Naw….just advising him is all. Ram says he’s also doing this for Marcelo who thinks he killed her, but Ram does not. And this is to find who really killed her—for him; one day he will prove it to everyone.CMTELLYUPDATE
Back in SanMarco’s hospital room, Violentin plays with him. Marcelo doesn’t seem so threatening lying in bed like that, like a fly he could swat, like TinTin, when Marcelo left him lying on the floor, crying tears of rage because he couldn’t fight back and clobber him to death the way he wanted to. TinTin refuses SanMarco’s apology and pulls a gun on him. Within a couple of minutes, dual personality syndrome takes hold of Santi and Marcelo takes over. He grabs the gun from TinTin’s hand and menacingly kicks him out of his room and his life. However, he’s bleeding again, and as Facundo re-enters the room he notices and starts screaming for help.
At the manse, A MiMi tells Erni that she’s asked for a reconciliation and she’s certain he’ll accept that since she always gets what she wants. Leo and A Llora do major eye rolls to each other at that. Lemeeee again hints broadly at her hiding things from the rest of them and then kisses her. Leo and A Llora give each other another “there she goes again” look.
Bernardo informs Mo that Erni is fine but needs to forget about finding Ana Lucia.
A Llora lies to her sister about the id bracelet and anything else. Ana Lemeee gets sneaky. “--But if Ramiro were to find out that Ana Lucia were alive you’d tell me, right?” A Llora skirts a direct answer saying that she’s always believed Ana Lucia is still alive.” Lemeeeeee gives up and says shse’s going back to the hospital to be with her husband where she belongs.
Speaking of Sainted SanMarco, Papi FU is relieved it was only a few pulled stitches. He begins giving him the third degree about who caused those stitches to rip out. It was that guy in the wheel chair, whom he no doubt met from that underworld he’s been living in, right? SanMarco uses this as a means of bringing up the horrid way he treated his “madrina” de Rem the other day. FU insists the woman has nothing to do with him and his place in the world and to stop calling her “madrina”!! Santi says FU’s right that she is not his godmother; she’s like a mother to him and if it comes to choosing, he’d choose her over him without a second thought. She will be part of his life till the day he dies, he adds. “--Perhaps she’ll die before you?” “--Don’t even think about harming a hair on her head!” FU backs off and says, hey, it is part of life that she’d die before you. But, he then agrees, Marcelo’s right, He was hard on her. Just imagine if she and then the whole of the roomers showed up here. Think of Ana Lucia. He was protecting her as well. Think of the bruja-ja (pun intended considering wifey on her broomstick and A Lucky already parked on her halo) there would be if the family showed up at the same time!!
SanMarco doesn’t believe a word of what FU’s been saying and tells him so. “--The only thing you want is to separate me from the people I know and love.” You want me to be the son you had “ FU agrees and adds he’s got as much right to him as those people do! He wants his son back—he’s known him since the day he was born—and Ana Leticia has that right also. “--We cannot refuse her that right.” CMTELLYUPDATE
At the same time, Rem and Sole are consoling each other with some tea. Sole says she doen’t trust Nerina. Rem says she can be trusted. As for being angry with A Lucky, there's no reason to be. If she resorted to asking Nerina for help it was because they hadn’t given her the emotional support she needed. Sole thinks the girl needs some further reigning in. Rem tells her not to bother. With her or without her by her side, she’s got a strong personality and nothing and nobody will ever keep her from getting what she wants. Anyway, Ana Lucia has managed to bring Nerina out of her self-imposed imprisonment. That’s a good thing. And, Death will eventually separate the two of them, if nothing else. Besides, as long as Ana Lucia is surrounded by love and those who love her, nothing will ever manager to harm her.
