Nat narrates:


This is impossible, my biggest fear can't be coming true, I don't want to lose Max, I hope it's a joke. I feel bad, I lack air in my lungs, I even feel a tachycardia in my chest, it hurts and it's very strong.

- Give up our love? - I said with tears.

- My child, listen to me, please.

- Did you go crazy?! - Some people looked at us discreetly. - I wont allow it.

- I do it for you to enjoy your gift, trust me.

- I don't want to! I don't want that gift, if I'm going to lose you! I love you!

- Please, let me talk...

- NOT! YOU CANNOT GIVE UP OUR LOVE AND LESS AFTER EVERYTHING WE SUFFER TO BE TOGETHER!

- Nat...!

- Nathan? - Just a moment! I know that voice. - Champion? It's you? - I turn suspiciously and...

- Pa... Dad? It's not possible!

- Nathan! - Scream and run towards me.

- Dad!

I respond in the same way, I run to him to hug him, and I can't believe it, this can't be true. I hug my dad with all my strength, I can feel everyone's eyes on us; But I don't care, all I want is to stay like this and know everything.

- Nathan! It is true that you are alive!

- Dad! How...? Because you left?

- I didn't leave son, it was all a plan of your mother.

Then she begins to explain to me that she did have a heart attack many years ago; but it wasn't as serious as my mom made it out to be. And not enough with that, it was the perfect excuse to send him to the United States, supposedly so that he would receive the best care.

When I asked why he didn't come back with me, I wanted to know why he didn't look for me, I needed him like hell. But, her response was that my mother took everything, she sold all my father's properties and practically left him on the street.

She managed to locate my mother some years later, as I understand it, around the same time she was dating Max. The very upstart she told my father that I had passed away, that she would never be able to find me; That woman's heart reached that degree of evil.

My father, homeless, penniless, and with no way to get back to me; he was left with no choice but to stay in the United States. In addition, he explained to me that he restarted his life there, he did not want to remarry, he just wanted to collect the necessary money to return and find my grave.

He had small jobs as a janitor, builder, plumber, bartender, among others; They are jobs that my father would never underestimate, because he is not like that, but I am sure it was very difficult for him, to have everything and in the end, to have nothing, because of an ambitious woman without feelings.

-If it wasn't for Max Saran, he would still be in the United States.

-Max? I turned to thank him, but he was gone.

-He didn't come to bring me in person and I would like to meet him.

- Of course you will meet him, just wait for me to find him. - Honestly, I feel like hitting him.

- Your father came for me.

- What did you say? His father? Are you sure?

-That's what the letter he sent me said, do you want to see it? Here she is! Keep it very carefully!


+Max's letter:


"Dear Mr. Natasitt, my name is Max Saran, I am a lawyer; and currently, I am the legal guardian of his son Nat. I will explain my history with his son:

Almost seven years ago I met him along with his mother, he seemed very nice to me and in all honesty, I doubted the care she gave him; Believing her to be a widowed woman, I married her to protect him, should he need it.

Indeed, my doubts were erased, the first time I saw her hitting Nat of her and I gave her the order not to do it again; In addition, it was from that day that I began the procedures to obtain guardianship of him, which I obtained, but she, without my authorization, took him away and I lost track of her for six years.

Her little and innocent son lived in a real hell during that time, all for a love that already existed, and wanted to avoid. It took me a long time to get Nat's forgiveness, and only a few days ago I deduced that you were possibly still alive, so I gave the order to search for you.

The person in front of you right now is my dad, better known as Mr. Saran Sr. And he has come for several reasons: the first is to tell him not to worry, that his son is alive, happy and that he misses him with all his heart.

The second is to inform you that this woman lived under another pseudonym and that I sent to investigate her; It turns out that there were properties and goods in that name, so I verified that they were the same person, in order to have the right to sell everything, so that you could recover your fortune.

Not only was your money recovered, but new profits have been made; for which I inform you that before you were a rich man and now you are a multimillionaire. We have collected every penny that woman stole from you, including the most valuable thing, which is her living child.

I know that he has not had an easy life in the United States, and I have the honor to ask him to return; since my dad will give him a checkbook with a card, in which he will find everything that belongs to him, except for one part; and that's the most important, it's Nat.

So that you can believe me, I am attaching three photographs to this letter, you will see that in the first one he is exactly like the last time you saw him, when he was six years old, in the second, it is one of those that I managed to take of him when he was 11 years old and , is how he currently looks, 17 years old.

My father is there, to be able to fix his international papers; for this he will need at least two weeks, which is perfect, because he had already thought that you would be his gift for his 18th birthday; please accept my sincere help, I just want my child to be happy and for you to be reunited with him.


Sincerely, Max Saran."+


The letter was even signed by him, it is the document that his father took to the hotel and I couldn't help but cry reading each one of those beautiful words. I never imagined so much love from him, everything he did for me and my dad, I think he will not have enough life to thank him.

- Are you hungry dad? There's a restaurant about an hour away!

- Well, let's go by taxi, because I am hungry and we still have a lot to talk about.

My dad is right and although I still really want to hit Max, I also love him intensely. Nobody has loved as much as he did and thanks to that, I can enjoy this beautiful reunion...
