What do you mean by "the truth about my family"? What else am I missing out on?
The truth is, Mateo, your mother and I used to be superheroes together. We were known as the dynamic duo, saving the world from danger.
That sounds amazing, Dad. Why did you stop being a superhero?
Well, Mateo, after your mother passed away, I found it hard to continue being a superhero. It just didn't feel right without her by my side.
I understand, Dad. It must have been really tough for you.
Thank you, Mateo. It means a lot to me that you understand.
So, what do you think about me becoming a superhero like mom?

I know, Dad. But I want to make a difference too. Just like Mom.
Mateo, I respect your desire to follow in your mother's footsteps, but becoming a superhero requires a lot of dedication and training.
I'm willing to put in the work, Dad. I want to be like her.
