Jeffry and Valery walked up to Susi, the old woman kept her head down. His hands clasped each other for signs that he was very scared and nervous. Valery approaches Susi, sitting next to Susi.
"Mom, relax. It's time for you two to talk." Valery said.
"And I want you to look at me." Jeffry snapped. Valery glared at her to be softer.
Susi looked up, she looked straight at her son, her eyes looking very sad. "How are you, son, you are growing more handsome just like your late father" Susi said.
"As you can see, I'm fine. We live well without you. I've never touched a dime of the money you sent me." replied Jeffry, he reached into his pocket and threw the account book at the table. "That's your money and your new husband" she continued.
Susi was wide-eyed, she stared at the account book that Jeffry threw. He took the account book and saw the number so much, his son really did not touch the gift. The water flows by itself. "If you don't touch my money, how can you live with your sister, son. Why don't you want to use the money I sent you." Susi asked in between her tears.
"I used to be a busker, even I used to beg in the streets. We'd rather starve than touch your money." Jeffry snapped.
"Jeff, calm down." Valery said.
"We were starving once, and Paul almost died of a fever. I only expect people's mercy. That's what happened after you left us." said Jeffry again.
Susi's cry broke even more when she heard the explanation from her son. "Oh my God, I sacrificed for your lives, I did it all so that you could live properly. But why don't you just use mom's money for a dime, son. Mom's heart hurts so much to hear it." she said.
Jeffry laughing. "Leaving your young son for our happiness. For God's sake what kind of mother can do that." Jeffry snapped.
His crying voice sounded very heartbreaking. "Mom really did it for both of you, I love your father so much. A week after your father died, the bank came to collect your father's debt. The mother sells the company until another asset is on the bank to cover her debt. I thought the problem was over there, but someone else came. Turns out your father owed you more to the foreign company. I can't sell anything anymore, and the threat is prison. I'll go to jail and make you live with misery." Susi stopped her explanation because she could not hold back her tears.
Valery calmed him down by continuing to pat him on the shoulder. Jeffry was surprised by his mother's explanation. He can't say anything. Susi took her breath back. He began to explain it again.
"When the boss was Canadian, the man liked the mother when she faced him, the mother was given a second choice. She married him and went to Canada without you two. He will give you a living every month so that you live properly. It was the best choice for both of you, when you were forced to sacrifice yourself, you married a foreign man you didn't love at all when your father just died. I love you both, I don't want you to live hard. That's why I did it, son." she said back in tears.
"Mother is not allowed to see you or contact you, mother took the Pill without her knowledge so that mother does not have children from her. The man didn't blame her because he thought she was barren. Every day she prayed that she would be called by God so that she could meet you. But God kept giving her a long life until decades of mother abandoning you, every day she cried because she wanted to know about you. Mom was hit until she went to the hospital for stealing her cell phone to call you guys" she said, sobbing.
Valery was shocked to hear his story. He also had no power to hold back his tears. Jeffry woke up from his seat. His feet were as weak as they were not on the floor.
"Your woes lie, right? You can't do that for us, you're just making it up, right?" jeffry asked, his voice shaking violently.
Susi shakes. "That's the truth, son, I'm doing this all for you. But my God, what are you doing Jeff. You're making your struggle pointless, you're not using that money because you're not reading the letter you left behind your father's picture" he said.
Jeffry immediately opened the photo. And he widened his eyes when he found the letter. Jeffrey opened it and read it.
#My son Jeffry, I wish you could read this letter baby. Please take care and raise your brother Paul. I will send you money every month to live well. You don't get mad at me, I'm doing this for both of you. I was forced to leave you two to pay off your father's debt. I love you both, I'll come back if the man who forced you to marry allows it. Jeffry be happy with your brother.
Mothers who love you. Susan Sean#
Jeffry cried hysterically, he cried as hard as he could. All this time he hated women who sacrificed for him and Paul. Jeffry kept hitting his head while crying. He was so stupid, why did he not understand when his mother gave him the photo. The pain in his heart was getting worse when he knew the truth.
Valery hears Jeffry's constant hysterical screams. Valery approached her in the room. "Oh my God Jeff, what are you doing, baby." she said, hugging Jeffry. Jeffry was crying in Valery's arms.
"What have I done to my mother Vale, why am I so bad to her. I sinned against him." he said hysterically.
This was the first time Jeffry had cried himself to roar like this. "It's not too late, baby, your mom's still here. You can make amends." he said.
"I don't have a face to see him anymore. I'm a useless child, I tortured him, I hate him. Oh my God, what have I done." he cried again.
"Jeff, wake up, baby. It's all because of a misunderstanding not because of your fault." Valery said.
Valery kept hugging her to calm down, the man couldn't stop her crying. When Susi arrives, Valery nods to get Susi to her son. Susi slowly approached Jeffry who was still crying on the bedroom floor in Valery's arms.
Susi patted her son's shoulder. "Mom misses you so much, son." she said.
Jeffry looked up at the instant his embrace turned to his mother, both of whom were crying loudly. The two let go of each other's desires. Valery retreats, leaving both men with privacy but with Jeffry's hands off, the man wants Valery to stay close to him. Valery sat back among them. Watching them both cry. Even Valery was unable to hold back his tears.
