Two mothers give birth almost at the same time in a maternity ward on a cold, rainy day in Palermo, Italy. They are Lúcia and Michelina.
During the birth Lucia has complications and it is necessary to remove her uterus, much to the sadness of her hu...
Leaving the hospital, the twins go to the shopping mall near Rocco's company.
- I need to buy something comfortable for my feet.
- What would be a sneaker or a sandal?
- Why not both? I've been wearing high heels more than even barefoot lately.
Antonella smiles.
- The life of a model may be glamorous, but it doesn't seduce me.
- It's the opposite for me, I've dreamed of catwalks and fashion since I was little.
- I have to tell you the truth. If you had been raised by our parents, you might not have worked as a model.
- Are our parents that outdated?
- That's outdated. Dad is that kind of conservative Italian, you know? I was rarely allowed to leave the house, while I was still a minor. It was always from school to home.
- You didn't go out on the weekends with your friends?
- Sometimes there would be a birthday party for a friend on the street.
- Was Luca one of those friends?
- Yes, Luca's parents lived opposite my house and Maddalena's on the street below. We grew up together, we often played in the rain. It was a happy childhood and adolescence.
- Luca kept pushing boys with bad intentions away from me.
Antonella smiles when she remembers the concealer Luca gave Vincenzo, just because he tried to kiss me when leaving school.

Antonella was in high school and Vincenzo works with events for a company. Since she provided services to the school she studied at, she hasn't let anything else go from her head.
One day he decided to tell her what he was feeling, but Antonella didn't even want to let him turn around and leave.
Vincenzo then wanted to steal a kiss from her, but Antonella refused, kicking him in the lower parts.
When Antonella runs away from the boy, she comes across Luca and hugs him crying and tells him what happened.
There is no need to say anything more to understand what happened next.
I think you can imagine the beating Vincenzo took for daring to touch Antonella.
Elisabetta smiles when she hears this story for the first time.
- You told me that Maddalena is in love with Luca. Why don't they stay together then?
- Maddalena hides her feelings from him.
- Even Antonella? Maybe it would be good for them to start a relationship.
- Why do you say that?
- The whole comment at the agency is that Lucas is crazy in love with you, Antonella.
