Luis es un profesor de inglés que pasa todo el día trabajando para mantener a su familia. Su esposa, Mariana, solía ser muy activa, pero desde el nacimiento de su segunda hija ha estado lidiando con una depresión que la mantiene aislada en casa. Sus hijos, Mateo de 4 años y Sofía de 2, requieren constante atención, lo que hace que la carga emocional y física sea aún mayor para Mariana. Un día, Luis llega a casa agotado y encuentra el hogar en completo desorden. Juguetes esparcidos por el suelo, platos sucios en el fregadero y ropa sin doblar sobre el sillón. Frustrado, le dice a Mariana: ¿Otra vez está todo hecho un desastre? ¿Por qué no has lavado los platos? Mariana, sin levantar la mirada, suspira y responde: No tienes idea de lo que es estar aquí todo el día... Intento hacer cosas, pero a veces simplemente no puedo. Luis, cansado y con poca paciencia, replica: Yo también estoy agotado, pero igual tengo que hacer todo lo que hace falta. Mientras discuten, Mateo se acerca con un dibujo en la mano y una gran sonrisa: Miren, hice una casa bonita para todos nosotros. ¿Les gusta? Luis y Mariana, inmersos en su conflicto, apenas le prestan atención. En su frustración, han perdido de vista lo más importante: su familia. Luis suspira y, por un momento, deja de lado su enojo. Observa a Mariana con más atención y le pregunta con sinceridad: Mariana... ¿Cómo te sientes en realidad? ¿Cómo puedo ayudarte? Mariana lo mira sorprendida, con un destello de alivio en los ojos. Gracias, Luis... Me siento abrumada. Si me ayudas un poco con los niños, quizá pueda organizar mejor las cosas. Luis asiente y, en lugar de seguir discutiendo, decide tomar a Mateo en brazos y ayudar.
