If you hadn't risked your lives to bringout, I wouldn't be here today. Without you, I might not have found Atlas. I might not even be alive."

"In reality, you are my true parents. I cherish every moment with you. Let's forget all this, okay? It doesn't matter whether my biological father returns or not. You're still my parents." Before I could finish, my dad hugged me, sobbing loudly. "I'm sorry, Chloe. It's my fault for making you lose your memories. It's all my fault." Moved, I leaned into his embrace, remembering how warm it always felt.

We were selfish for bringing you out, since we only did it so you would becour daughter." "I understand, Dad." "I've made too many mistakes in this life. I've wronged many people. I've let so many people down...
"I owe everything to your mom. I haven't given her a great life, where she can live in comfort. She's been living in fear and running away withall her life." At that moment, I fully understood Dad's regret.

He looked like a helpless child as he let go of his dignity as a man.
He clung totightly, fearing that if he let go, I'd disappear.
I understood his anxiety. After all, he had already lost one daughter. Losingagain would drive those two to despair, possibly even to the point of taking their own lives.
"I won't leave you, Dad. I never will. Please don't do this. Your heart's not well. I've said it before, wherever I am, you and mom will be there." Those words echoed my true feelings.
