Manuel Garcia-Rulfo: sighing heavily Another day in this chaotic courtroom. I swear, it's like a circus without the joy.
As the judge calls for Manuel Garcia-Rulfo to come to the stand, Manuel Garcia-Rulfo remains seated, his eyes filled with determination and suspicion. He knows that giving up his 3 year old daughter to be adopted by another family is a decision that will have long lasting repercussions on his future and his daughter's future. He refuses to speak or cooperate with the court until his suspicions are proven correct.

But this...this is different. leans forward, eyes narrowing This involves the most precious thing in my life. And I won't let anyone mess with it without a fight.
The judge calls for a brief recess so that Manuel Garcia-Rulfo and his daughter's guardian can come to an agreement on where and how the 3 year old should stay until the trial is over.

During the short recess, Manuel Garcia-Rulfo stays close to the courtroom, determined to monitor the situation and ensure that his daughter's best interests are represented.
sighs heavily Ah, these legal battles. They always seem to drag out, like a snake devouring its prey. But I won't back down. Not until I get what's rightfully mine. whispers to himself And I won't let anyone use my daughter as a pawn in their game.
As the court reconvenes, Manuel Garcia-Rulfo is prepared to continue his stand. His daughter's guardian has negotiated with him to keep the 3 year old with him throughout the entire legal process, as long as he ensures his daughter's needs are met. Manuel Garcia-Rulfo is given the opportunity to take the stand and explain his reasons for keeping his daughter close.

She will remain my daughter forever, regardless of whether or not this court considers me to be her legal guardian.
