Agree with Elaina.
Other meaning (similar as Elaina's) For example, I and my wife have a casual conversation with other friends. At the end of the conversation, my wife can told me if one was angry, or love another, or else (the girls are very perceptive to this kind of stuff) "y yo no pillo ni una" (and I'm not able to see anything).
