Francisco was a precocious child, very clever. By affection he was known as Panchito. He lived in a very humble part of the city with Estela, a woman whom he believed to be his mother, along with two supposed brothers: José and Jeremías, two boys with bad habits.
Panchito was a worker. What little he knew he had learned on the street. He liked music. He was a boy of just ten years old and already at that age he worked and was very supportive, he liked to help people. However, his heart was always sad. He felt that he did not belong to the world in which he lived, the one that life had imposed on him. Their preferences in all the senses were very different to the preferences of his supposed mother and brothers.
As for food, Panchito received food from her "mother" only once a day while she, José and Jeremías ate three times. To him this seemed unfair and as one day he complained about it, the woman took that claim as a sufficient reason to throw him out of the house, without caring about the dangers that would stalk the child in the street.
While Panchito lived that bad situation, his real mother, Maria de los Angeles, the daughter of the Count of Palma, also faced a raw and strong reality: Her father, on his deathbed, had confessed her that her baby had not died Shortly after his birth, he was alive, his name was Francisco and he was the heir of his title.
María de los Ángeles, faced this news experienced mixed emotions: joy, hope, anger, disappointment, anxiety. To know that she was deceived in such a way by her own father was something that did not fit in her mind and destroyed her heart.
- Daughter, forgive me so I can die peacefully. Promise me that you will look for the child until you find him.
María de los Ángeles forgave him and promised to find her son.
The Count told her to talk to her nurse, that she knews where and with whom the child lived.
While Maria de los Angeles lived this situation, on the other side of the city, Panchito was alone and desperate. He decides to put land in the middle and takes the train to the Palm where he, without knowing it, would have to find his destiny. A destiny that had been taken away by his own grandfather.
