Part Two of the Story… 👇
Mateo stood frozen in the field, watching Lucía walkaway with three toddlers clinging to her skirts. His tailored suit and polished shoes felt ridiculous against the dust of San Miguel del Valle, the town he had abandoned two years ago to pursue wealth in the city. 🌾
He had left Lucía alone in their tiny house with empty pockets and a broken heart, promising to return once he succeeded. Instead, he forgot her, ignoring every letter and phone call while building a multi-million dollar business empire. Now he was back, not out of love, but because his corporation needed her family’s ancestral land to sign a massive contract. 💼

The three boys bore his distinct features, including the birthmark under their left ear that ran in his family. But as he followed her toward the small wooden shack behind the agave fields, the guilt began to suffocate him. 💔
