"If you want forgiveness, it is not me you should be apologizing to. It is your daughters, who grew up without even knowing who their father was, for all these years. My own father died when I was young, and I hated him for it, but they grew up knowing he was alive, and that he simply didn't have the time to visit them, or that he forgot about them. Maybe you didn't, but that's not for me to judge. I'm just the woman you left alone with two children to raise."
