Romance develops between them after the return of Juvenal, but ends in tragedy.

Her blue eyes and honey-colored hair gave him such a characteristic that differed from the other girls.
* Carlos Toledo, a young student, returning from Buenos Aires after several years to fix an economic problem that prevented him from completing their studies.
