"In the previous chapter..." "It all started the day we left." "We thought we'd be back together once outside the hospital," "But time passed and Lleó wasn't recovering." "Jordi!" "The leader of the Bracelets needed us more than ever, but instead we weren't there to help him." "But then... an incredible and magical thing happened." "Hello." "But in hospital it's never quite perfect." "And I think having someone make life easy, means I don't fight as hard against this damn cancer." "If you go away I'll recover faster." "So, the Bracelets aren't together?" "No, that's why I came to work here, so that one day the Bracelets will be together again." "If you don't need any more chemo, I'll discharge you this evening." "Final discharge?" "You swear it?" "It's a very happy day for me," "The lion's no longer in captivity," "They're already giving you chemo, right?" "Just one session, how did you know?" "Because your hair's starting to fall out." "I'd shave it, before it falls out." "You have to anticipate events." "What's the problem?" "Do you always anticipate in order to survive?" "Yeah..." "It's what I've always tried to do." "Good luck, Rym." "Lleó, you have to be strong." "It can't be!" "Episode 15 [2x02]" "Good morning." "Were you eager to see the sunrise?" "I'm eager for a new day to start." "Yesterday was crap." "It seems to me that the day notices promptly that we want a change." "Are you hungry, Lleó?" "What a shame!" "I've got croissants with chocolate, custard and cream, freshly made." "Spectacular!" "You shouldn't go outside." "They say it's not good for you." "Bah, stuff the doctors!" "How are you?" "I don't know." "I don't know." "Nothing makes sense, Benito, and I've worked hard." "It's unfair." "You're right, Lleó, it's unfair." "My grandfather always said..." ""When you think you know all the answers,"" ""along comes the universe, and it changes all the questions."" "And what did he mean?" "That the universe always surprises you." "Yesterday, I guess you had answers to undergoing chemo, or to not doing it and getting out of here, but you didn't have them for having cancer again." "If the universe wants you to stay here it has to be for an important reason." "Damn the universe!" "Did you tell your sister?" "Not yet." "What about the Bracelets?" "Of course not." "Talking about it will help." "Yeah, I know... it's just that I'm fed up." "I look like the fool who always repeats a term and everyone looks at him with a sad face, while they pass and go on to the next class." "I never have or will, look at you with pity, and those who love you won't either." "Yeah, I know that, but if I don't talk about it, it's as if it still hasn't happened, it's as if I didn't have cancer again." "And how long can you pretend it isn't so?" "Not long." "So..." "It's not like you to be a coward, Lleó." "I guess you cut your hair to find your strength, but perhaps your courage is somewhere else." "Look for it, Lleó." "And talk to the doctor." "Yesterday you left it halfway." "You have to know what you're dealing with." "How little the universe loves us!" "eh?" "I've met you, thanks to it." "Perhaps it loves us more than we believe." "Courage, Lleó." "Be brave." "Jordi, man, how you doing?" "How are you, man?" "Did you come by bike?" "Come on, you're late." "Alex, stop it, please." "Stop, stop it now, stop it." "Alex." "Stop it now." "Come on!" "We're doing lesson four today, but first, we'll have a question from lesson three, as I do every week." "Enough, please." "As always, yes, as always." "Alright." "What four steps are necessary for a motorcycle engine to start?" "It's easy." "We did it last week." "Who knows?" "Me." "Do you?" "No." "Alex and his humour." "Well, thank you, Alex." "You know it, right?" "Ask Jordi?" "Jordi?" "Do you know?" "Here." "Machine!" "Induction, first step." "Hey, please!" "Compression." "Combustion." "[So cute!" "]" "Exhaust." "Very good." "Okay, Jordi." "These are the four steps to start a motorcycle engine." "And today we begin lesson four." "Grab a notepad and pen." "How to clean an engine." "Is there any chance that the biopsy could rule it out as cancer?" "I'm not going to lie to you, with your background it's almost certain that you have liver cancer." "And you know that cancer always goes in an anticlockwise direction, and in this case everything would fit:" "the leg, the left lung, and now the liver." "But we can be wrong;" "that's why the biopsy." "What if it is liver cancer?" "I know it's bad, with the size of the spot, what are my chances of beating it?" "We'll wait for the biopsy." "I want to know now, please." "Lleó... 70 per cent..." "like the leg?" "40 per cent, as with the lung?" "What, 13?" "Because of the size and type of tumour you have, the risk is very high." "It all depends on how you react to the chemo." "13?" "We must wait, Lleó." "The biopsy has to confirm it." "Have you called your sister?" "Is she in Boston?" "You have to inform her, Lleó." "Benito, you know he's not well, and your father..." "Well, I mean we can't count on him." "Do you want me to call her?" "No, I'll call her." "I'll call." "When do we do the biopsy?" "Soon." "That's it?" "That's it." "Doctor Ramirez, please come to to the second floor." "Doctor Ramirez, second floor." "Lourdes!" "Lourdes!" "Ignasi's mother!" "Toni!" "Are you pregnant?" "Yes, seven months." "Congratulations." "Can I feel?" "Are you an orderly?" "Yes, for nine months." "Have you come for some tests?" "An ultrasound." "The ultrasound scans are done on the third floor." "Yes, I know." "I came with my husband, but first I wanted to..." "Today is Ignasi's birthday." "It would've been, I mean." "He'd be 18 today." "I didn't know." "He never told us when his birthday was." "Is that why you came to the children's floor?" "No, no..." "I'm not sure why I came." "I needed to be here." "This afternoon I'll go to the cemetery, but first I wanted to see his room." "Yeah..." "I know it's silly." "It doesn't seem so to me." "What you say makes sense." "Could we go this afternoon?" "To the cemetery?" "I'm sure if I tell them, the Bracelets will want to go." "It's not necessary, Toni, really." "Yes, it is." "Okay." "I'll be at the Collserola cemetery at about 6 o'clock." "If you want, we can meet there." "We'll be there." "And... what's this?" "It is a gift that no longer makes sense." "I don't know what to do with it." "Give it, Toni." "Give it." "Gifts are given, you can't keep them." "Surprise!" "What's this, Toni?" "Gifts have to be given." "A very special person told me that." "You're giving it to me, even though I'm not leaving?" "Look, maybe it's not a leaving gift, it's a welcoming gift, but someday it'll be for leaving." "I really appreciate it, but I'm not in the mood for gifts." "Then I'll give it to Rym, Shall I?" "I love this girl." "She's very pretty, even bald." "Toni, don't tell lies." "I tell it like it is:" "you're beautiful, beautiful, beautiful." "Have you already fallen in love with Lleó?" "Toni!" "No, I haven't fallen in love." "You will." "They all fall for him." "Aren't you opening it, Lleó?" "I'll open it later, relax." "As you wish." "Do you know that today is Ignasi's birthday?" "Today?" "Yes, I met his mother and she told me." "All the Bracelets could go to Collserola cemetery to celebrate it with him." "Toni, he's dead." "Yeah, I know he's dead but you only turn 18 once." "We have to go, and you know it." "If you want, I'll get you a pass to get out of here." "I'll talk to Josep." "Don't worry." "To the Collserola cemetery?" "Yes." "Yeah, okay." "Let's go." "Cool!" "I thought it would be harder to convince you." "I have to transport a lot of people." "Besides, I want all the Bracelets to come, but at 5:13 exactly I'll come to collect you with my grandpa." "Be ready." "At 5:13 ?" "At 5:13, more or less." "Are you okay?" "Terrific." "Can't you see?" "Hey, relax, I'm also terrific." "I don't believe it." "Yes, he came." "No way, I already know it's a lie." "I swear he came." "They never come here!" "Seriously he came." "No way!" "yes." "Toni, is it true that Lleó came yesterday?" "Tell him it's true." "Didn't he sign my cap!" "He doesn't believe me." "Yes, he was here alright." "Shit!" "And I missed it." "You missed it because you broke your arm." "You shouldn't break anything!" "Did Jordi come too?" "No." "Ah, then it wasn't so great, if Jordi wasn't there." "I like Jordi much better." "He's my favorite." "How can he be your favorite?" "Lleó's the leader!" "Yeah, but Jordi could be the leader if he wanted." "Plus he gave hope to Roc's mother when they went to the pool." "Isn't that so, Toni?" "He also gave the bracelet in the form of a rose to Cris, right?" "Yes, you remember all the stories." "Why don't you tell us what happened to Jordi when he left the hospital?" "I don't have time, kid." "Go on, please, you've never told us." "Okay, but Lucas, you have to promise you won't move much today," "And that you'll help Dani when they come to make him grow." "And you, Dani, make sure he doesn't knock himself and break something." "Yeah, sure." "Come on, tell us." "Let's see... where do I begin?" "From when Jordi left with you and Cris." "The day Jordi left hospital he spent a few days at home, recovering, gathering strength to return to being a normal kid, to return to school." "Those laughs, those looks, that people weren't talking to him about his life in hospital, all that was very upsetting to Jordi." "He felt alone and different, and his character was changing." "Hi, honey." "I'm late." "Sorry." "Why are you never with them?" "They weren't with me when I was in hospital." "Don't take that attitude, Jordi." "You must make an effort." "Me?" "I have to make an effort?" "They're the ones who ignore me." "These children, they don't know how to treat you." "You have to forgive them, Jordi." "This anger only harms you." "What's your problem?" "Do you think because you look at me 50 times my leg will grow?" "Let's leave Andorra." "We could go somewhere else." "With Grandma, in Cardedeu." "And we could reinvent ourselves and start again from scratch." "It's difficult to change." "No, it's not difficult to change, what's difficult is to overcome cancer, and you and I have succeeded." "From now on, everything, compared to that is easy." "We can reinvent ourselves, we can forget all these people and forget about the disease, too." "That day, Jordi changed." "New hobbies, new studies, he even forgot all his friends." "Jordi changed a lot." "Perhaps too much." "Yes, but why did he abandon the Bracelets?" "Sometimes relationships, like your bones are broken, but later get repaired again." "Lleó is the best." "Lleó would never do that." "But surely there was a reason, right, Toni?" "Yes, there's always a reason." "Today I'll see him and ask him." "You'll see him?" "Yes, today's an important day, I have to see him." "It's super late!" "I really have to go." "Take care." "You've promised me." "Roc's mother!" "Roc's mother?" "Wait, wait, let's freeze the image." "Roc told me that this afternoon I have to take him to the cemetery." "Yes, Roc never fails." "Okay, see you there." "Right." "And... unfreeze the image." "I need the help of these two boys so strong and handsome." "Hey, guys, today's party is at Paula's stepfather's house." "And this weekend they're away." "But weren't we going to see some motorbikes?" "More or less." "We brought some drinks." "Where do you want them?" "What about a swimsuit?" "No, but won't underwear do?" "It's up to you." "Hi." "Hello, beautiful." "How you doing?" "How's the water?" "It's cold!" "Come on, man, get in!" "I..." "Shh, be quiet." "Wait a minute." " What up?" "Don't you fancy me?" "Yes, of course I like you." "But I have to tell you something." "Tell me." "It's... it's that..." "It's what?" "I guess you've already seen that I walk a bit lame." "Yeah..." "So?" "Well..." "I'm not exactly lame." "I mean, I'm lame because..." "I wear..." "I don't understand." "You wear what?" "I wear a prosthetic leg." "I don't have a leg." "Really?" "You have no leg?" "I didn't know." "Yeah." "It isn't very noticeable." "I thought you had staples or screws into the bone, and that's why you walked lame." "Not really." "I don't have screws or staples." "Can I see your leg?" "The prosthetic, I mean." "You want to see it?" "If you don't mind, I've never seen one." "You like it?" "Be right back." "Don't run away, eh?" "What the hell have you done, Rym?" "I've anticipated." "Don't you like it?" "I don't know, you look sick." "Guess what?" "I am sick!" "Yeah, but it's one thing to be sick, and it's another..." "I dunno, to seem like it." "Was this his idea?" "What's your problem?" "Is this the way you intend to help my sister?" "Yes." "The next time you have a brilliant idea, such as making my sister bald, be sure to talk to me first." "Got that?" "Being an idiot isn't the same as seeming like one." "Your brother's an idiot, and seems like one." "Don't over do it, eh?" "No, leave it, Rym." "I like that he's so pedantic." "All the other roommates were a depressing bunch." "And you have a lot of bravado but not much balls. eh?" "I have more balls than you have brain cells." "Why don't you measure your dicks, and get it over with?" "Don't you have parents or siblings?" "I haven't seen any visitors yet." "Yes, an older sister, but she lives in Boston." "That's far away, isn't it?" "Very good!" "He's isn't very smart, your little brother, Rym." "Hey, he's smart enough to be here with me when I need him, and doesn't run thousands of miles away." "My sister has spent more hours at hospital than anyone, than anyone." "I'm sorry." "I didn't mean to..." "And your sister, why did she have to go to Boston?" "Because she fell in love with a doctor here, and he went to work there." "At first she didn't want to leave, but she ended up by going." "And recently they've had a girl... called Amaya, like my mother." "Your mother must be very happy." "My mother has long been dead." "Rym, you have to go for a CT scan." "What the matter?" "Is everything okay?" "Rym?" "Where are they doing the scan?" "I don't know where you have cancer." "In the lung." "In the lung?" "When they do it, don't breathe too much, or else they'll have to do it again." "Noted." "Rym, why did you lie to him about where you have cancer?" "I don't know." "It just came out like that." "Hello." "Hello." "What do you want?" "We're looking for Jordi." "Carlos, go with them." "They want to see Jordi." "Hello." "Come on." "Wait here, Grandpa." "I'll get him." "Are you friends with Jordi?" "Yes, we're good friends." "Me too, from here and from school." "Me, from the hospital." "The hospital where they...?" "Amputated his leg?" "Yes." "Yes, I'm a Bracelet." "A what?" "He's never told you about the Bracelets?" "No." "That means you're not very good friends with him." "He's down there, fixing a bike." "Hello, Jordi." "Hi, Toni." "Long time no see!" "Eh?" "You're taller." "You too." "You look like a mechanic." "I wear a similar uniform at the hospital, but mine is blue." "It'd be nice if one day..." "Toni, what do you want?" "I've work to do." "Today would be Ignasi's 18th birthday, and I thought it'd be cool if all the Bracelets went to the cemetery." "No, I can't today." "It's important, Jordi." "Besides, Lleó also has things to tell us." "I'm sorry." "I'm happy to see you, but I can't today." "What happened to you?" "Toni, we've already talked about that." "Yeah, but I didn't understand anything." ""I have to grow up." You just said that." "What do you mean, you had to grow up?" "We all grew up." "Toni, go." "What they think worries you, does it?" "But what happens to the Bracelets means nothing to you." "You know what?" "In hospital there's a "Child of glass", who's bones break, who adores you," "But he doesn't know that his idol may seem strong on the outside, but inside it's all lies." "You're of glass." "I don't know who you are or what you've become," "But a Bracelet isn't like that." "Rivers of people, broken hearted running alone, spitting out their failure." "already vanquished, will wait as they've always done," "for a one night affair." "While laughing... within fleeting clouds, every day more distant." "Running alone, following clues to find... comfort in action." "A friend... who's not often seen..." "Hello, Cris." "I wanted to say that today would be Ignasi's 18th birthday, and the Bracelets are going to the Collserola cemetery." "At 6 o'clock." "Don't fail us, please." "We need you." "when everything's over," "Burned by the truth and shouting." "I'll be able to go back... while I'm not too far." "I'll be able to go back... while it's not to late." "I'll be able to go back... while I'm not too far." "I'll be able to go back... while it's not to late." "It's cool, that canoe." "Are you really going to go to the cemetery?" "Why?" "You get a special permit, and go to Ignasi's grave." "Out of so many places!" "You made a big mistake by shaving your head." "You know it, right?" "You're very ugly." "From now on I'll call you "baldy"." "Lleó..." "What?" "After what they said to you, I wanted to say that..." "I'm sorry." "I'm sorry." "Well, it seems they've left you hanging." "It doesn't surprise me, you're conversation is crap." "Hey!" "Hey, Lleó!" "Toni." "How are you, man?" "Fine." "I didn't know that..." "As you can see, man." "The universe has it in for me." "What a shit!" "eh?" "Yeah." "But..." "I'm glad to see you." "Me too, man." "This look really suits you." "I didn't know." "Congratulations." "These things happen." "Well, happy birthday, Ignasi." "Thanks for coming." "It makes me very happy." "I didn't know that you still..." "Hey... these things happen." "I've prepared a few words." "I'd like to speak." "Yes, yes, of course." "Look, Ignasi," "I know that whenever you make a speech in a place like this... you have to avoid talking about problems and pretend that everything is fine, but the truth is that the Bracelets aren't going through a good time." "We're getting older, and it's difficult to stay friends now that we're not together." "I miss you, Ignasi," "I miss your way of living and straight talking." "I'm sure that with you here, we'd be more together." "That's why when I met your mother today, and she told me it was your birthday..." "I thought maybe it was a sign, and wherever you are, you were trying to get us Bracelets back together." "But as you can see, I was unable to bring them all together, and I know that wherever you are, you want us to be together, and to fulfill the promise to live the life that you couldn't live." "And I don't know when, Ignasi, but we'll do it." "We owe it to you." "We will be together and will live for you." "Happy birthday, handsome one." "Are you sure you don't want to go?" "Here, man." "Happy birthday." "Come here a moment, Toni?" "It's there." "What's there?" "Part of me." "Your leg is here?" "Yes." "I was asked if I preferred to bury it or donate it to science," "And science, for some reason, didn't want it, so I buried it." "I think I'm one of the few people who can say they have one foot in the grave." "A long time will pass until you get reunited with your leg." "Thanks, Toni." "I guess that's why you came." "That's why you didn't mind coming." "It wasn't for Ignasi, it was because you wanted to see your grave." "In part." "Partly yes." "I suppose the coincidence of going to the same cemetery meant something." "I don't know, really." "Perhaps my strength is here." "Can you leave me alone for a moment?" "I'll wait in the car." "Not gonna help me, eh?" "Hello." "I wanted to see you on your birthday, to hug you, and give you the kiss that I owe to you." "Happy birthday." "Lleó?" "Gavina?" "I don't see you." "Hey, Lleó!" "Now?" "Now yes." "Hello!" "Hello." "Hello, beautiful!" "Amaya!" "What happened to you, Lleó?" "What have you done to your head?" "Haven't you been discharged?" "No, in the end they couldn't." "What do you mean?" "What happened?" "A relapse." "Where?" "Where?" "Lleó!" "No, it's nothing, Gavina, they just told me they have to give me 2 more sessions of chemo, but everything's okay." "I've shaved to anticipate it." "You know me. yes, or no?" "Everything's okay, eh?" "Really." "Three weeks, and I'm going home." "Are you sure?" "Yeah, I'm sure." "I can catch a plane tomorrow..." "Gavina." "Really, only 3 weeks and home." "It's what they've told me." "I can catch a plane tomorrow..." "Gavina!" "Look, Toni even gave me leaving gift!" "Look." "What could it be?" "What could it be, Amaya, look." "Look!" "Amaya, let's open it." "Come." "Look, look!" "Let's see..." "What is it?" "Look, Amaya, look there." "And... gosh!" "A canoe!" "Wow!" "Look at the canoe." "Wow!" "Isn't it great?" "Uncle will go see you in Boston in this." "He'll come to Boston!" "In this thing!" "You'd better grow muscles in your arms, it's a long way." "That's good Lleó!" "I'm glad." "You deserve it." "Hey, endure these sessions, eh?" "sure." "Your uncle Lleó is okay!" "What do you say?" "Look, she even stands up!" "She even walks!" "Your uncle is okay!" "Damn, she's gorgeous!" "She has so much life ahead!" "She can be anything she wants." "We miss you." "Okay, Gavina, we'll speak next week, eh?" "We miss you." "Me too." "Lots of kisses." "Me too, lots." "You'll call me?" "Okay." "I'm going to put her to bed." "Okay." "Goodnight." "Bye." "Tomorrow when it's dark... we'll return to start," "return to dreaming... while awake." "They won't forget us, they'll remember us," "we were here... awake... all night... all night here, all night with you, all night... existing and feeling." "All night here, all night with you, all night... existing and feeling." "Let us grow older, let the years go by," "It's not so important... as everything that's been happening to us." "We were here... awake... all night... all night here, all night with you." "Hey, man?" "Why didn't you come to the cemetery?" "It really sucks that you didn't come." "That's not nice, Jordi." "Ah..." "I know your secret." "You should try talking to Cris, may be she is your strength." "Benito, enough." "Do you have cancer?" "No, right?" "Are you seventeen?" "Then leave me alone." "What you got there?" "Nothing." "You've come so far, Jordi." "Carlos will tell your mother, you know." "Have some guts, and tell us why you haven't come to see us in all this time." "What for?" "What good would it do, now?" "What happened, Cris, if you've been okay for over one and a half years?" "Are you having problems with Victor?" "Isn't he just a substitute for Lleó?" "Look, Lleó threw me out of his life." "The only thing he cares about is his illness, and since I didn't have cancer, they didn't give me chemo, and I wasn't bald, so I couldn't understand him."
