Part III

Dear Jessica, it's your mom. This is the first time we're talking again in ten years. I should start by apologizing to you. I'm sorry. I'm sorry for everything I've done that hurt you. From my decisions and my failure to take care of you, but I had no choice but to leave. Your father wasn't willing to shoulder his responsibility of your upbringing. He preferred to give all his time to his mistress. I worked day and night to be able to provide for you. Every money nana had was from me and not your father. It wasn't easy to start from the bottom but I overcame every hurdle and today; I have a successful business of my own. This isn't the first email I'm sending ever since my mother died, but I'm glad you responded to the previous mail.
