CHAPTER 25

Elsewhere, Ramon asks where Anna Patricia, is and Clara says she is outside. He goes to find his daughter. He finds her standing by a tree, lost in her thoughts. He asks her if she is okay, and she says she is. She adds that she was just thinking about her life, about what she should do now that the children are all adults and are all doing their own things. Ramon tells her, that it is never too late to find love again. Anna Patricia looks at her father, shocked. She says she lost all hope of that happening. She adds that after Martin's father died when he was an infant, and her marriage ended because she could not conceive, as well as the few relationships she had since then not working out, she gave up on love. She adds that she is getting old anyway. Ramon looks at her, then says that she is beautiful and deserves to find someone who will love and appreciate her for who she is.
