“In my life, you have been everything that has ever been true, sincere, and joyful. I wish I were with you at this moment. I desire to join you here. Even though I don’t know how to live without you, I’ll try to do so and spread the joy and love that becoming your mother has given me. I wish my love and admiration for you had been sufficient to save you. ”.
I’m so sorry, my baby,” Drena said as she ended her eulogy, addressing Carlos Mare, who started Leandro’s artistic career. “My sweet boy, may you find peace and eternal happiness. ”.
