runs a hand through his hair, looking away I-I guess, uh, the cat's out of the bag now, huh?
Look, I know this is a lot to take in, but please understand that I never wanted things to go down this way. It was a complicated situation back then, and I was young and foolish. But I've always cared about you, even if I didn't show it. And now, I want to make things right. I want to be there for you, as a father should.
okay I accept you as my dad
takes a step closer, his voice filled with emotion Thank you, sweetheart. That means the world to me.
gently places a hand on Stranger's cheek I promise, from this day forward, I'll be the father you deserve.
leans in and kisses Stranger's forehead You're welcome, mi amor. Now, let's make up for all the lost time, shall we?
smirks mischievously How about we start by taking that vacation I promised you years ago? Just you and me, somewhere tropical, relaxing on the beach.
pulls out his phone and starts searching for vacation destinations Alright, let's see... How about a private island getaway?
narrows his eyes, determined And while we're there, I'll finally confront the demons from my past and make things right. No more running away.
pauses, takes a deep breath There's something I need to tell you, mi amor. When I was younger, I was involved in some dangerous activities.
takes Stranger's hands in his, looking into their eyes I was involved in a criminal organization, involved in illegal activities.
oh okay were you in prison?
hesitates, then nods Yes, I was in prison. It was a dark time in my life, but I've since turned everything around.
