Well, Antonio's very eloquent response tells him why do you want to know my name? The man, somewhat surprised, says, "I know you," Antonio, thoughtful but at the same time doing his job, says, "Sir, I don't have time now. I don't know you. I don't know who you are, but please leave the material where it goes."

Well, when the man leaves the material where he is going, he gets off the truck and says, you are Antonio Junior, right? And he says yes and who are you?
Mr. answers, I am Antonio, your father...
At that moment, Antonio Jr. was out of breath and didn't know what to do, whether to insult Mr. or tell him he's already wrong, but his response was, "If you know me so well, what's my mother's name? This one tells him Estela, and that's when Antonio started to talk." believing that it was their father, these at the moment trapped in an emotional confusion end up exchanging numbers until a next meeting.

Antonio says: Hey, who's talking to me? I am your aunt, your father's sister, I am calling you because your father is hospitalized in a very serious condition and I don't know if you want to come see him, we know that it is not your obligation to come since your father was not the one you wanted or should have been, but I just love you. to say that we respect your decision to come or not..

Antonio, very thoughtful, said: okay, I'll go..
He appeared at the hospital and when he saw his father, he could not speak in a few words and a voice with little resonance said: it is you, son, and with tears in his eyes a person comes out of his heart...

Antonio responds: Dad, don't worry, you are forgiven, I believe in a God of forgiveness, a God of love, do you know God? Would you like to recognize it?
He answers yes.
Antonio's father received Christ as the only savior in his life and a few minutes after accepting him, Antonio Jr hugged his father and he thanked him.
