« It means, » Samuel said, »

« What should we do, Mom? » Miguel asked. »

Isabel took her son’s hand.
« I raised you to save lives, not to judge, » he said.
« Do it. Not for him…
but to prove that you are better. »

The five sons saved the father who had rejected them.
Upon waking, Roberto asked to see them.
He wanted to leave them his entire fortune.
But the nurse only gave him a letter.
