n

"What in the hell you are doing in my house?

" Valentina yelled.

n

"Val...

" Valentina cut off Amelia in mid-sentence.

n

"Don't take my name from your **ty mouth! You don't have any right to take my name.

" Valentina yelled.

n

"Baby... You are sick.

" Amelia said with tears as she walked towards her.

n

"Shut the ** up and don't dare to walk close to me.

" Valentina yelled.

nJason and Margaret looked at each other and sighed.

n

"And you think that I will not know that you are here at my house. Huh? How great?

" Valentina asked.

n

"Val...

" Valentina cut off Amelia again in mid-sentence.

"I told you to not to take my name from your mouth! I feel so disgusted!

" Valentina yelled.

n

"Val... Stop!

" Jason shouted making Valentina flinch.

n

"Just stop now.

" Jason said as he grabbed Valentina's hand.

n

"No.

" Valentina replied as she released herself from his grip.

n

"No... I am not going to shut up! She should get out of my house right now!

" Valentina shouted.

n

"Valentina, she is your mom for god's sake. She has every right to here and takes care of you. She made lunch for you because she cares for you.

" Jason said making Valentina laugh out loud.

n

"What? Care? What's that?

" Valentina asked making Jason frowned.

n

"She never ever cared about me, Jason. And she will never will. She is the woman who doesn't even want her child. She doesn't know what is love or care because she never showed me that!

" Valentina said with tears.

n

"She can never love me.

" Valentina shouted with tears making Amelia shook her head with years.

n

"No, Val... I love you, baby... I love you, my child.

" Amelia replied with tears as she walked towards Valentina.

n

"Them where is the ** your love all these years?

" Valentina yelled with tears.

n

"Baby, you know the circumstances I need to face if I come close to you right?

" Amelia asked making Valentina laughed in tears.

n

"So... Because of those circumstances, you didn't love your daughter? Didn't you ever think what was your daughter going through? You just cared about you and your circumstances and nothing else?

" Valentina asked with tears.

n

"Val... It's not like that... I love you. I loved you and I will always love you no matter what!

" Amelia answered.

n

"Shut up... Just shut up!

" Valentina yelled.

n

"Don't talk about love... It's a shame if you talk about your so-called love!

" Valentina said with tears in her eyes.

n

"Your love... Means... Keeping your own daughter away from you. Your love means... Not giving your daughter a stomach full food. Your love means... Not caring about your daughter... Your love means, ignoring about your daughter. Your love means... Not giving much attention to your daughter... Heck, I don't even remember you talking to me how I am even doing!

" Valentina said as she wiped her tears away making more tears falls from Amelia's eyes.

n

"Val... You know how those days are!

" Amelia replied making Valentina chuckle.

n

"Mom...

" Valentina said making everyone eyes wide. Amelia looked up at Valentina with her wide eyes as she called mom. Her heart started beating so fast.

n

"I craved so badly to call you... Mom.

" Valentina said making a tear falls down from Margaret's eyes.

n

"I craved... But I know I don't have any chance to call you Mom... I left my hopes on calling you Mom along back ago... I promise myself to not to ever call you mom... Ever! Because I know it will hurt me a lot to call you mom suddenly... I know... You will start showing me your love after everything ends but I don't want that love at all... You are scared of him. You are so scared of him and didn't show your love to your own daughter. I don't want that scared love in my life and like that, I vow to not to call you mom ever!

" Valentina said and Amelia shook her head in no.

n

"No... Please don't say that... I can't bear it. You are my princess and the only one who can call me as mine.

" Amelia replied and Valentina shook her head.

n

"I am not yours... You lost me shape day you pushed me away from your life and never tried to look back at me. I have seen how cruel your heart can get. I am not going to take that cruelty again... My heart is not at all ready to take it... Neither it is ready to accept you in any way.

" Valentina said.

n

"Val... I beg you. Please forgive me?

" Amelia asked as she got down on her knees in front of Valentina.

n

"I know... I am wrong! I am wrong at everything! I should have stood for you but I was selfish I guess... For not caring or loving my daughter. I am sorry. It's my fault... Please forgive me and try to give me a chance... I will never break your heart again... Please! I want my daughter back!

" Amelia said as she cried her heart out.

nA fresh tears rolled in Valentina's eyes but she never let them fall down to show her vulnerable side to Amelia. Valentine is a strong girl who never ever show her vulnerable to anyone even though his hard it is for her. She will stand straight on her words.

n

"Do you remember the day you told me that, I don't need you bitch?

" Valentina asked making Amelia nod her head with tears.

n

"That day... Your bitchy daughter died. There is no more daughter for you and she will never come back to you! She begged for a chance near you just like you are doing today... You remember?

" Valentina asked and Amelia nods her head with tears.

n

"I still remember me that day... You kicked away your daughter with your leg... You wouldn't have done that if you love your daughter. You don't have any idea what she felt that day when her own mother kicked her away with her leg.

" Valentina said holding her tears and her voice cracked. Tears filled in Jason's and Margaret's eyes listening to Valentina but they because helpless that time.
