__TOC__
== Throughout Mirage ==
After moving into her new house, Vera discovers one stormy night the old television of the previous owner, who had been deceased for 25 years. She sees the young man on the night of his death and pleads with him not to go out. Vera wakes up the next day, but her surroundings have completely changed.
=== First Timeline ===
During a train journey, Vera met Aitor Medina. They became friends, and when Aitor introduced her to his friend David, Vera fell in love with him. They got married and had a daughter named Gloria.
In 2014, they moved into the neighboring house next to Aitor. One stormy night, Vera and her husband invited Aitor and his mother for dinner. Aitor told them the story of his childhood friend Nico Lasarte: one stormy night in 1989, he witnessed his neighbor killing his wife; when he went to investigate, he fled into the street and was hit by a car, resulting in his death.
The neighbor was arrested the next day. After the meal, Vera and David found an old television with a cassette player. When they turned it on, the family watched videos of Nico Lasarte.
In the middle of the night, the television turned on again. Upon investigation, Vera saw the young Nico Lasarte and begged him not to go out despite the noises from the adjacent house. Tearfully, Vera watched Nico move away from the camera lens, and the image became blurry.
=== Second Timeline ===
Vera woke up in the hospital without knowing why. On her way to school, her daughter Gloria was missing. Vera went to the police station, where she met Inspector Leira. After confirmation, it turned out that Gloria had never existed.
As Vera explored her new world, she realized that she had never married David, who still lived with his ex, and she had never met Aitor. Furthermore, Vera had become a neurosurgeon, and her colleague believed that this parallel dimension was just a hallucination caused by her years of service and the shock of losing one of her patients, a young girl.
Nevertheless, Vera wanted to know what happened to Nico Lasarte. With Inspector Leira's help, they traveled to the young man's past: Aitor refused to talk about it; a woman wrote a book about Vera's story based on what Maria Lasarte, Nico's mother, had told her, but the author never knew if Nico really existed.
Vera remembered reading an article about Angel Prieto, Nico's former neighbor, who admitted to wanting to bury his wife in his slaughterhouse. Vera and Inspector Leira went there and found a suitcase full of bones that DNA analysis revealed to be those of Hilda Weiss, Nico's neighbor.
To thank her, Leira gave Vera an address. Going there, Vera found David with another woman than his current wife. Vera realized that David was cheating on her even when they had a daughter. Vera blackmailed David into finding Nico Lasarte's address using his bank account.
With his help, Vera arrived at an apartment where Maria Lasarte was waiting. That's when Nico Lasarte, who turned out to be Inspector Leira, walked in. By touching his hand, Vera remembered that he had taken Aitor's place on the train, and they got married. Seeing his refusal to change the course of time using the television, Vera threw herself out of the window, hoping that Nico cared enough to change time.
=== Third Timeline ===
Vera woke up next to David in her original dimension. She rushed to Gloria's room to find her there. Vera understood that Nico had succeeded in changing the course of time.
After the storm, Vera went to Prieto's butcher shop to unearth Hilda Weiss and called the police. Inspector Leira arrived, knowing that he would remember the adventure they had just experienced.
