章 38: Chapter 38

“And to my Beto, my sweet Beto, who took on so much after your Papi died. You cannot know how much you mean to me. You were strong and always did what was best for the ranch. But you did not always do what was best for you. I could see the sadness in your eyes, the pain that you carried with you. You spent your life for others and always felt you had to look out for everyone. I didn’t see just how much you are hurting. I need you to be happy, and I need you to be free. That’s why I’ve left you some money, a special account to do what you want. To give yourself a break and be happy. Please, let go of your anger. I need you to smile again.”

Beto’s eyes welled with tears as the light began to embrace him. He fell to his knees and began sobbing. Carlos went to him, wrapping his arms around his brother. Elena floated over to them as Eugenio and Virginia continued to watch in the distance.
