The rain had stopped when the sun began to rise behind the mountains.

The field was covered in fog.

Alejandro Rivas —the man who for months had been “Andrés”— was sitting on the old wooden bench in front of the house.

I hadn’t slept all night.

The images kept returning to his mind like fragments of someone else’s life.

Your company’s building.

Meetings with investors.

Parties full of fake people.

The expensive suits.

The multi-million dollar contracts.

And then… the accident.

He clearly remembered the moment.

The road was empty.

His car was moving quickly.

And then he saw another vehicle approaching from behind.

Too fast.

He tried to change lanes.

But the car violently rammed into him.

I remembered the sound of metal.

The steering wheel is losing control.

And before losing consciousness… she saw the face of the man who was driving.

It wasn’t an accident.

It was an attempted murder.

Alejandro took a deep breath.

He looked at his hands.

Full of calluses.

Hands that had worked the land for months.

Hands that had carried sacks of corn, repaired fences, and protected two children who weren’t even their own.

And then he heard the door open.

Laura went out to the patio.

He had a cup of coffee in his hand.

He looked at him for a few seconds.

—You didn’t sleep.

It wasn’t a question.

Alejandro shook his head.

-No.

Laura sat down next to him.

—Does your head hurt again?

He hesitated.

Then he said something that changed everything.

—I remembered who I am.

Laura remained motionless.

-That?

—My name.

She looked at him cautiously.

-AND…?

Alejandro took a deep breath.

—My name is not Andrés.

The silence between them was long.

—So… what’s your name?

Alejandro looked up at the horizon.

—Alejandro Rivas.

Laura frowned.

—That name sounds familiar…

It took a few seconds.

But when he understood… his face went pale.

-Not…

Alejandro nodded slowly.

-Yeah.

Laura stood up suddenly.

—The millionaire who disappeared?

-Himself.

She took a few steps back.

-Are you kidding.

-No.

Silence fell between them.

—So… all this time…?

—I didn’t remember anything.

Laura crossed her arms.

-And now?

Alejandro lowered his gaze.

—Now I remember everything.

The children left the house at that moment.

Matthew ran towards him.

—Andrés! Mom says the barn is a complete mess!

Alejandro looked at him.

And he felt something strange in his chest.

—We’ll fix it.

Mateo smiled.

But Laura watched him in silence.

“If what you say is true,” he finally said, “you should go back to the city.”

Alejandro looked at her.

-Maybe.

—That’s your world.

He shook his head slowly.

-Don’t know.

Laura sighed.

—There’s nothing for you here.

Alejandro looked at the house.

The field.

The children laughing.

—There’s more here than I’ve had in my entire life.

Laura did not respond.

Three days passed.

And then they arrived.

Three black SUVs.

They stopped in front of the house, kicking up dust.

Men in expensive suits got out of the vehicles.

One of them approached.

—Mr. Rivas.

Alejandro recognized him immediately.

Your lawyer.

—We’ve been looking for him for months.

Laura watched everything from the doorway.

“Your company is in chaos,” the lawyer continued. “Your partners are fighting for control.”

Alejandro remained silent.

—We need him to come back.

Mateo looked confused.

-Andrew?

Alejandro took a deep breath.

And he understood something.

He had lived two lives.

One full of money and power.

Another one full of humanity.

And now he had to choose.

He looked at Laura.

Then to the children.

Then he went to the black SUVs that were waiting for him.

And for the first time in her life…

Alejandro Rivas understood that the most difficult decision was not to recover his empire.

It was deciding if I really wanted to do it.
