"Good morning miss, I came for a medical check-up with the gynecologist," Ana says calmly.
"If of course, allow me your ID, please write it down," says the secretary of the office.
"Yes, of course," Ana replies, smiling subtly.
"Cancel me, please."
"Here you go," he hands the money to the young woman.
"Wait in the room, the nurse will take you to the doctor soon."
"Very kind," Ana goes and sits smiling, waiting for her turn to be served.
Ana Rodríguez is a simple young woman of just 18 years of age, a university student, her good academic performance, made her the recipient of an important scholarship in one of the most prestigious universities in New York, the city where she lives with her father and brother.
She picks up her cell phone while she waits and calls her best friend Sofia, who is also going to the same university with her:
"Hello, Sofi, all right?"
"Yes, my friend, where are you?"
"I'm in consultation with the gynecologist.
"Oh, okay. You mentioned it to me yesterday.
"Yes, my dear.
"I'll see you when you go out, at the café near my house." Let me know when you come.
"I'll only go if you invite," Ana says with a laugh.
"So advantageous. Just because I want to know more about Abel I'm going, otherwise I won't even invite you anything.
"Do you still insist on my brother?"
"I love it," Ana frowns at her comment because her brother likes them all.
"Well, I'll leave you, I think I'll go to the doctor, I'll see you later."
"Okay, bye," they hang up the conversation.
Meanwhile, the nurse arrives at the secretary's post and asks:
"Have you already prepared the files, with the data of the patients, that the doctor will inseminate today?"
"Yes, my friend, here they are," mixing Ana's file, among those who will be having the procedure today.
"Thank you, in the morning we only have one insemination, and in the afternoon, there is a lot of work," the nurse points to the secretary, who gives a subtle smile and continues working on the computer.
Without further ado, the nurse calls Ana, who apparently will be the only daytime patient, she is on hold, as she arrived very early.
"Ana Rodríguez, is that you?" The nurse asks.
"Yes, it's me.
"Come with me," Ana leaves with her, she's happy because she'll be leaving the office soon, because she's very hungry, she left without breakfast.
The doctor was talking to a client, from whom he will inseminate a woman, so that he will become a father, by means of an artificial procedure:
"Hello Mr. Hufman," the doctor greets the man gently.
"Dr. Jhetro, the young lady must have arrived by now, I sent her to your office a while ago. So, let's get to work," the man mentions, as the doctor hangs up the call.
That man, with whom the doctor spoke is Anthony Hufman (Tony), is one of the most prestigious CEOs in the country, who owns an important national newspaper, called in Spanish "Un Nuevo Tiempo".
Tony is an altruistic and kind-hearted young man, who always seeks to care for and protect the most underdog, he has seen many injustices before his eyes. From which he has not been immune, which is why he makes his newspaper available to all those who are mistreated and seek justice. It also helps the Latino community in New York, some of whom are victims of constant abuses because of their immigrant status.
The noble heart of this man beats at this moment, at full speed and anxiously panic. So, he is pensive, in the office of his mansion, waiting for the doctor's news.
In the office...
The nurse prepares Ana for the fertilization procedure, not knowing that she is not the woman that Anthony Hufman had hired to start the process.
"Come on, put this robe on and sit down here, please," he says.
Ana is surprised, because she is a virgin, she does not understand how the doctor does, she wants to delve into her privacy and immediately asks:
"Do I need to undress?"
"Yes, young man, otherwise the doctor can't do his job." Ana cocks her head strangely; however, she does as the woman points out.
The doctor arrives immediately, to begin:
"Good morning miss, take away that worried face, it will be very fast," Ana looks at him nervously.
Open your legs slightly and the doctor initiates the in vitro procedure. Ana closes and opens her eyes calmly, unaware that mistake is inseminating her. A slight tickle invades her body, along with her subtle icy breeze, which is quickly internalized in her.
After a while, the doctor informs him:
"Ready, young man, you can go."
"Doctor, and don't you send me anything, for the pain in my belly?"
"Don't worry, I don't think you'll feel pain, with what I've just done.
"Oh well, you know, it's the doctor," Ana gives a subtle smile.
In the midst of her innocence and ignorance about the subject, she did not realize what they had just done to her, as she has never been intimate with anyone, she has only focused on studying and getting good grades, so that her father feels proud of her, so she perceived everything normally.
He dresses and leaves the office, saying goodbye, gently to the doctor and nurse.
Dr. Jhetro calls out to Anthony Hufman:
"Mr. Hufman, that's it, the procedure has been done, we just have to wait.
"Will she get pregnant just once?"
"Probably yes, maybe you tell the young woman to come in case she starts menstruating and we do another procedure, I still have samples from her."
"If it's okay I'll be on the lookout, I'll call Rose, to tell her what you're telling me.
"Rose?"
"Yes, Rose Dixon, it was the girl I sent, who rented her womb to me," the doctor quickly panics and searches for Ana's file.
"Mr. Hufman, the girl I inseminated is not named Rose. But Ana Rodríguez.
"What?" How? Anthony reacts excitedly.
"For God's sake, what did I just do?" exclaims the petrified doctor.
"There must be a mistake, the girl I sent is called Rose and not Ana.
"Call her, there must be an explanation and she call me immediately, if we made a mistake, it could cost me my career of years Mr. Hufman.
"There must be a coherent explanation. I call Rose and immediately get back to you.
The doctor hurriedly calls the nurse and the secretary to tell them:
"I had an emergency, close the office and cancel today's appointments. I need to talk to you very seriously." He looks at you with obvious concern.
"What's wrong, doctor?"
"I think we made a very serious mistake, that if it came to light it would be the end.
"Doctor, are you scaring me?" The secretary exclaims.
"Mary, the girl who did the file, came for an insemination, right?" Mary falls upside down, with what the doctor tells her.
"Hell! No doctor she came, for a routine check-up, not for an insemination.
"Mary, but you put her file in the insemination folder, the fatal mistake was yours initially, now we're all lost," the nurse says, as the doctor clasps his hands on his head.
At the Hufman mansion...
Tony calls, to Rose to no avail, mutters to himself:
"Where the hell has Rose gone?"
The doctor quickly calls, distraught, to give him the bad news:
"Mr. Hufman, something terrible happened as I feared, I impregnated the wrong woman, the girl is indeed called Ana Rodríguez, if the procedure is a success and she gets pregnant, I'm finished. I couldn't live with the disrepute, Good heavens!
"Calm down doctor, at least I don't know, she doesn't have a picture to identify her.
"No, only his name, he didn't even leave a phone number, nor an address, it was a terrible mistake by the secretary, which will cost us all our lives. All I have is her name, Ana Rodriguez.
"Lightning. Where I'll find Ana Rodríguez, it's a very common name, it's like looking for a needle in a haystack.
"God willing that the procedure fails, in the same way I will take my precautions, goodbye," he hangs up the call and decides to flee without hesitation, he will not be present, to see what happens after the mistake made.
Will Tony find a way out of this situation, which is becoming apparent? Join me to discover how this beautiful story begins.
The next day...
Ana continues, with her routine she is heading to university, with her best friend Sofia they are both inseparable, so much so that they do practically everything together.
"What a bummer, classes start today," says Sofi.
"Oh Sofi, you don't change, I don't understand how you continue to come to classes, if you hate studying," Ana reprimands her.
"Because of my parents, who practically force me.
"You're ungrateful, all the effort your parents make, to give you everything and you pay them back, falling in love with my brother and ignoring his career.
"Don't scold me, I've had enough of my parents' sermon when they see my grades," Ana frowns in weariness.
"Let's go to the living room," and he takes her roughly by the hand.
When you get to the classroom, there is Steven, a young man who is madly in love with Ana, in his own way, since all you do is annoy her, seeking to get her attention.
"Oh, look at the one we have here with the genius girl.
"The fool of the class, making an appearance. You don't get tired of annoying," Ana tells him harshly.
"If only Ana, you'd put that rudeness aside and accept me as a boyfriend, maybe I'll leave you alone someday," everyone in the room whistles.
"Idiots," Ana yells and glares angrily at Steven.
A classmate quickly gives them a piece of information, which is considered to be the gossip of the class, named Danielle:
"Guys, please pay attention, I've got some information for you.
"Or gossip!" Steven exclaims sarcastically.
"We have a new literature teacher, since the old man we had before is hospitalized. He kind of kicked it out-everyone sketches, a laugh at the news.
"What will that new teacher be like?" Ana murmurs to her friend.
"Just like everyone else, it's very boring, it's a bummer," Sofia says.
"Sofi, but you have time to retire and search, a trade that I know. To help you thrive in life.
"I think the same.
"You have to be honest, with your parents' friends, so they don't spend so much money in vain.
"You're right, Ana, even to the point of scolding me.
"I'm sorry my friend, I just want your well-being.
"I know," they both look at each other affectionately.
On the other side of town...
There is Father Ana and her brother Abel, their father's name is Anderson Rodríguez, he is a hardworking and good man, widowed ten years ago and has only raised his children. Ana is his greatest pride:
"How proud I am of your sister, she turned out just like your mother, intelligent and beautiful.
"Yes, my little sister, my dad, is the best, but the beauty, I think you're exaggerating," his brother says wittily.
"Oh Abel, you're always making fun of your sister.
"It's true, Dad, she's not a beauty queen either. Although if it were more arranged, it would even deceive anyone's eye.
"Don't talk like that, about your sister, my boy. If only all young women were as judicious as she was.
"Better not, self-righteous women always end up alone.
"You think so, because you're a Mr. Juan, I don't know who you went out to.
"I don't know, it must be my uncle Benito. Ha, ha, ha, I don't look like you, I'm the black sheep of the family.
"At least you recognize it. But he's a good man, I dream that one day you will feel head and love will knock on the doors of your heart.
"Don't be cheesy, Dad, we're in a different era. The one I like right now is Sofi, Ana's little friend.
"Be very careful, Abel with that girl," his father warns him apprehensively, and he immediately shrugs his shoulders.
Abel is a handsome, honest, somewhat impulsive young man, but kind-hearted, his only defect is women, he falls in love with all of them without any qualms.
Going back to college...
Everyone was waiting for the new teacher, Danielle, no matter how hard she tried, to find out who it was, just didn't succeed:
"Danielle, you're losing faculties, how did you not find the identity of the new professor?" Ana asks mockingly.
"Try as I might, I couldn't, the rector is very mysterious, that is the witch.
"She's very strict, she doesn't swallow me much," Ana says.
"I'm sure because you're of Latino origin, she's stupid, you were born in the United States and you've shown that you're much smarter than anyone else," Danielle shows Ana her solidarity.
"Thank you, Danielle.
The rector first enters alone, sure to announce the new professor.
"Good day guys, today I want you to welcome the new literature teacher, I hope you behave well with him and respect him, since they are up in arms.
"As long as he doesn't make us suffer, like old Smith, everything will be fine," Steven says, a comment very much in his satyr style.
"Young Steven, more respect, or else I'll call your parents back, as you like conflict.
"Don't worry, Miss Roberts, it's no big deal," he says wryly.
"All right guys, let's welcome Professor Anthony Hufman, come in, Professor, please."
Oh my God! He mutters more than once, when he sees the handsome CEO enter the room, among his many occupations he will take the time, to teach them literature, Anthony is a man of letters and very sensitive, so he likes the teaching activities and teaching them. It's a way to feel useful and active.
Five years ago, Tony lost his wife, Micaela, in a terrible car accident that almost ended his life, but the memory of his beloved wife is still intact in his memory. So, he hasn't considered being with another woman until now, it has put a big lock on his heart. Poor baby.
The first to drool is Ana, who immediately makes eye contact with Tony and they both smile at each other for a few seconds.
"Oh my God! The new teacher is great," Sofi muses.
"Lightning! That way, no one can concentrate," Danielle murmurs spellbound.
"Hey guys, good morning," Anthony says with a big smile.
"It's like something out of a commercial," says another student. And the boys look at her, all of them with suspicion. Ha, ha, ha.
"Very well here I leave you with the professor, any complaint of any of them, just let me know professor" she looks at him smiling before leaving and fixes her hair mischievously, everyone laughs at her gesture.
Tony takes the floor immediately, to get acquainted with the group:
"Hello guys, for those who don't know my name, it's Anthony Hufman, I have a degree in letters and as the rector just told you, I'll be your new teacher, I'd like to meet each one individually, so I'll take a roll call, when I mention them they get up and introduce themselves. It is, ok?
"Yes, Professor," they all reply.
"Start, please pay attention: Sofía Andueza," Sofi gets up and introduces herself with a lot of nervousness, for which she is deserving of everyone's ridicule.
"Guys, please, I'm going to ask you first for respect for everyone, we will have moments of relaxation and serious situations, which will be carried out with the matter. So, please be quiet-everyone is quiet in sorrow.
"I continue, Danielle Bert," and so it goes, one by one, until it's Anne's turn.
"Ana Rodríguez," he scorns and looks at her. Being stunned and silent for a few minutes. He makes eye contact, with her very amazed.
"I'm a teacher, my name is Ana Rodríguez, I'm the daughter of Mexican immigrants, I like to read..." She pays little attention to what Ana tells her; she only focuses on the name.
Mentally mutter:
"Is it her, or is it a coincidence, that she has the same name?" And he's slightly shocked.
He finishes the class and for some reason, stops Ana, before leaving motivated by an impulse:
"Miss! He exclaims and they both stare at each other. Anne's eyes sparkle with their own light, having such a handsome gentleman nearby.
"Hello professor," Ana reacts nervously.
"His name is very common.
"Yes, there must be, like a million Ana Rodriguez in the country.
"Yes, I suppose," realizing that she's probably not the young woman you're looking for, who was mistakenly inseminated.
"Goodbye professor and it was a pleasure to meet you," Ana leaves the room smiling.
Outside, she is stopped by her friend Sofi:
"What did the professor want?"
"Nothing, we barely exchanged a few words, by chance.
"Are you flirting with the professor?"
"Sofia, please don't be ridiculous.
"You've never had a boyfriend, you're even a virgin." Sure, it is, because you have very high standards, you like them, as well as the teacher, millionaires and twice your age.
"Anybody, my brother is better," Ana says wryly.
"Like Abel, none," Sofia says, with a loud sigh.
"Be careful, Sofi, and they come out, with a little surprise."
"Oh yes, my parents scold me more.
"Let's go get something to eat, I'm starving," they retreat to the cafeteria.
Tony remains pensive in the room; the name Ana Rodriguez continues to echo in his mind. His best friend and confidant, Justin, immediately pulls him out of the stream of his thoughts, his cell phone rings:
"Hello, Justin, how are you?"
"All right let's go to lunch. Are you still in college?"
"Yes, here I am.
"How did your first day go?"
"Good. I have a lot of things to tell you.
"See you at the usual restaurant." Tell your driver to take you, I'll arrive in 30 minutes, and we'll talk calmly.
"Okay, I'll see you.
30 minutes later...
He enters a luxury restaurant, with fine lamps and exclusive table linens, not to mention the crockery that was made of real silver, he looks for his friend, who is already waiting for him, at one of the tables of the distinctive place:
"Brother," they shake his hands and give him an affectionate hug.
"All right, Tony?"
"No Justin, I can't lie to you, I have to confess something to you.
"Wow, that's how it will be, you're the kind of person who avoids trouble.
"I'm in one, because of my stubbornness to be a father.
"Tell me, I'll hear you, my friend."
"I don't know how to begin to narrate this mess, you know that I hired a womb for rent, from a girl I met on the internet.
"What did you do?" What? You went crazy, you're a young man please, you can have your children naturally, if only you'll let Micaela rest in peace. Tony she's dead, she reacts, you have to move on with your life, if what you want most is a family and children, get married, you have a lot of women at your disposal.
"Never, ever will I be faithful to the memory of my beloved wife. I won't be with any other woman, but it's not Micaela's memory, that I want to talk to you. But what happened to me with this girl.
"I'm sorry," he continues.
"I hired a girl to lend me her womb, I tried to do everything discreetly, preventing my mother from finding out, yesterday was the day of insemination and by mistake the doctor hired another girl for that fertile procedure.
"Demon!
"The girl, who I had contacted through a Facebook page, never showed up at the office, the doctor already had everything ready, but apparently one of the employees confused the files, I inseminated with my sperm, a young woman named Ana Rodríguez, of whom I have no more information than her name.
"You've left me with a square eye. Ana Rodriguez there are many, however, if the girl appears and that pregnancy is achieved at the first attempt, they can get into serious trouble, mainly the doctor because of the failure.
"If this situation has worried me since yesterday, to top it all off, the doctor left the country and the girl I had hired, I paid him in advance, and she vanished.
"You're silly, Tony, always trusting others. People are bad, Tony.
"You know, I always give people a vote of confidence.
"But look, you've been robbed for trusting.
"Money, that's the least important thing to me, but finding the young woman in question. Ana Rodríguez.
"Wow, I even lost my appetite," Justin says.
At Ana's house...
He has fun in the company of his father, his brother and Sofi, who are already giving free rein to their love affair.
"These two fell into the trap of love.
"At least I hope this girlfriend lasts," says Ana's father.
"My brother, he's very capricious, with so many women, and he fancied Sofi," Ana frowns.
"Let's hope they don't do something stupid, like getting her pregnant, for example."
"God forbid, Dad, a son at our age, it would be the end of the world for us."
"I know, honey, thank God, I don't have those problems with you, you came out very smart and smart.
"I have my priorities dad; I don't want anything to distract me from my goals and more than that I'm on a scholarship. If I fail, my scholarship is taken away and without it, my dreams vanish.
"Don't worry, daughter, which won't happen. I love you so much, you are my pride.
"So beautiful, my daddy. Dad, aren't you interested in falling in love again?
"No, my love, I am very happy with you.
"Yes, Dad, but a special love, you don't feel like it.
"Ana, I have more respect for your father. I would never talk about those things with you.
"For God's sake, Dad, come on, open your heart to me."
"My heart was closed on the day your mother died, and those who dwell in it are you, my children.
"What you're saying sounds very beautiful. But you shouldn't be alone, you know that Gemma from the beauty salon, she kind of had her eye on you, that's how I heard over there.
"Stop the nonsense and let's get closer to your brother, so they're not going to throw dirt in our eyes and run away."
"Ha, ha, ha. Dad, what do you say?
Abel comes to them and says:
"Dad, I'm going to accompany Sofi to her house."
"I'm going with you," Ana leaves immediately.
"Ana, don't be ridiculous, I'll take her."
"Abel let Ana accompany them, so he can take the opportunity to go get some books at Sofi's house," Anderson winks at Ana in complicity.
"What books, Ana?" Sofi asks in astonishment.
"Some that you have for me, that are mine, of course how you don't like to study, if you know what I mean, right," Sofi looks at her strangely. Not knowing that everything is Father Ana's doing, to prevent them from being left alone.
The three of them leave the house and Abel is obviously upset:
"Ana, if you're ridiculous, look at lending you to my dad's antics, I don't understand why he doesn't trust me," Ana rolls her eyes.
"You're still asking.
"I would never hurt my girlfriend, would I'm honest," he cracks a big smile and Sofia falls at his feet.
"I never understood, my friend, your bad taste, so many handsome, elegant, millionaire men..."
"Like the literature professor?"
"What teacher is that?" Do you think Sofia is handsome too? Abel looks at them suspiciously.
"No love, I only have eyes for you.
"Leave the honeydew, they're impaling me."
"You would have stayed in the house, if you didn't want to be eaten by ants," and Abel begins, tickling his sister, who won't stop laughing.
"Enough Abel, I'm going to pee with laughter," he continues, laughing lightly.
"I'm fascinated by your relationship, you can see that you love each other, I always wanted to have a brother. Maybe my life would have been easier.
"My Sophi, but life gave you a sister and a handsome boyfriend. You have to fix your brain, but at least your heart works very well," Ana points out sarcastically.
"Thank you for what I have to do, brainiac," Abel pats his sister on the head.
"Oh Abel, that hurt," Ana complains.
"Guys.
This beautiful heroine has no idea what is about to happen to her, which will change her life forever.
At the Hufman Mansion...
Tony is very thoughtful, on the sofa in the living room, all this situation with the still unknown to him, Ana Rodriguez has turned his world upside down. His mother, Rebecca, senses her son's discouragement, as mother notices, that something is wrong:
"My love, what do you have?" You've been staring blankly for a while.
"Nothing, mom, work," he kisses her on the forehead.
"Son of God, let Micaela rest in peace, you gain nothing by continuing to live, as you have until now, a prisoner of her memory. The years go by, and they don't forgive Tony, you're still young and you have time to rebuild your life.
"I will never love any other woman like Micaela again. Don't criticize me too much, because since Dad died, I haven't rebuilt your life either.
"It's very different, I was old when your father died. Instead, you are in the prime of your youth.
"Old woman?" If you're still, a beautiful woman and young mom.
"You say that, because you're my son.
"I'm just telling the truth, Mom.
"Promise me, you'll give yourself another chance at love, promise it, son," his mother points to the feeling.
"Mom," Tony mutters, much more worried.
Will he tell his mother what is happening now in his life?
