Chapter 220 - Advantage
"I understand, Aunt Elizabeth... But sometimes, you know... We get sick of betrayals again and again... We can't forgive someone again and again right?
" Valentina asked.
"You can't, love... And if you had to forgive someone again and again... Then think about it... Think, why you need to forgive them... If their reason is justifying then... Sure, there is nothing wrong on forgiving a person... But remember... That person also might can take an advantage of it... Just because, you are forgiving someone again and again doesn't mean that you forget what they do to you... You will always remember the things that they did to you... They might can forget that you Might have forgot what they had did to you as you forgave them... But they don't think that, it's really hard to forget something that you did something to them!
" Elizabeth said with a smile on her face making Valantina nod her head in yes.
"True... They only think that, we forget what they did to us... As we forgive them... But they don't know, how much it hurts when you get to see the thing again and again that you had forgave for... It's really... Hard sometimes... When we think about this... We can't keep our mind on anyother things than this... We won't have any idea why that particular person had to do this with us... Why only us?
" Valentina asked with so much pain in her heart as she was about to cry but she held herself so well and didn't let anyone know how much she is broken at that moment.
Xavier gulped down his saliva as He heard what Valentina is talking right now as he very well knows what she means...
Valentina took a deep breath as Elizabeth nodded her head in yes.
"Yeah... I can understand you... But try to keep yourself from such peoples as much as you can... Only then you can be able to save yourself from getting hurt again and again... If not... It's you, who will get more hurt day by day and you can't able to forgive yourself by forgiving them again and again... Just know that, you are important to you to yourself than anyone else... You should always give yourself a priority rather than thinking about others and how things are going with them... Well... I can only suggest you something that don't bother about these things... You just do what makes you feel good... And once you did, then please don't regret it... You should never regret something you did in your life...
" Elizabeth answerered making Valantina nod her head in yes.
"I won't think something... Like that... Neither I regret Something in my life... Whatever I did until now is something that I feel greatful off... There is no things in my life that can make me regret something... Maybe... Someone or something might will... But, I will hold on to myself until the end... And will take care of myself very well... I just don't want someone to betray me more... It just hurt a lot... I have been betrayed once... I trusted that person more than anything... But that person...
" Valentina said as she took a deep breath making Elizabeth and Amelia frowned at her as they both are not sure about what Valentina is talking about... And the person who she is talking about!
They are confused about who betrayed her... That made them think about the things that they don't want too...
They both turned their heads at Xavier, who is her only bestfriend... Thinking that he might know anything about the person who betrayed her.
Elizabeth and Amelia looked at Xavier and saw him looking at Valantina with his wide eyes and he has this shock on his face that made them believe that, he doesn't know anything about What Valantina is talking about too... As he looked lost in her words too...
"Valentina...
" Amelia called making Valentina turn towards her.
Amelia looked at her and took her hand in hers making her look into her eyes.
"I... I don't know what happened with you... But you know what to do with whom... You are mature enough to know what you are doing. Forgiving someone is really not wrong. But it will also make you feel really good that you had forgave someone even though they did cause you something bad. Everyone do mistakes in life... But some mistakes will hurt us a lot... We don't deserve them... It's true... But we had to accept the harsh truth of the life that, we can't do anything about these mistakes but we can just learn from them by just seeing them.
" Amelia said with a small smile making Valentina nod her head in yes.
"Yes... I will remember this. I will forgive them how many ever times they want but they just need to remember that, it's hard for me to forgive them always... They need to remember that I can't able to forget what they did to me... It just so worst... I can't able go do anything... I just can't! It's so hard for me... I can't even explain myself and calm myself down...
" Valentina replied and Amelia nodded her head. She hugged her tightly and kissed her forehead.
"It's fine... You didn't do anything wrong... You always tried to make someone happy... Just few things got messed up... In between... But I am sure... You will figure out yourself in time... And you will do really great with time... I am sure about this. You always make everyone's lives beautiful with your kind heart and beautiful smile... Just know that, not everyone is same in this world... Some likes us... Some doesn't... But we need to look after everyone samely... If they don't understand us then it's their problem... We have nothing to do anything with them. Who cares about you will always stay with you... Forever and ever!
" Amelia said and Valantina nodded her head with tears rolled in her eyes.
"Thank you, Mom... Thank you so much for making me feel good.
" Valentina replied with a smile and Amelia smiled back at her as she caressed her hair.
