After the celebration ended, Teresa couldn't hide her worry anymore and asked Lucian: "Son, why did you not call us when you were going to take the last step? Both of us know how much pain one experiences when taking the last step. You could have at least told us beforehand."
Lucian felt that he had indeed wronged his parents. His head fell down in shame.
"I am sorry mother, father. I should have informed you and I know that any excuse that I give will not be enough. But what happened was because, in the heat of the moment, I got a bit excited and forgot to tell you."
Osian and Teresa had already talked about it and they also knew that Lucian was still a little child.
Teresa sighed and said: "Okay, don't worry. We forgive you this time. But, remember that we are your parents and you can share all your worries with us."
Lucian nodded lightly. He still felt guilty.
