What Lies Behind a Folded Hand?

…I’m not leaving ‘cuz I’m scared, or because I think I’m not enough. Because, maybe, for the first time in my life, I know I am. I just love Nick so much, I don’t want him to lose his Mom again.

So, I just wanted you to know that one day, when he marries another lucky girl who is enough for you, and you’re playing with your grandkids while the Tanhuas are blooming and the birds are chirping, that it was because of me – a poor, raised by a single mother, low-class, immigrant, nobody.
