At first she hid her reluctance. < img src = "https://zycie.news/crrops/f3c31c/620x0/1/0/2025/02/14/hk49j5wlhvvfxk5felggcvnjfnos3gp1u6o05bx3.jpg" alt = "old lady @pexels" styles = "background-color: rgba (80,75.53.1)" > < p > When Filip told me that he was married, I was happy.

< p > I have always dreamed of finding someone who would love him, support him, who would create a house full of love with him. I raised him myself since his father died, and although I never wanted to be overpuzz, I felt that we were very close.

< p > but when I met Natalia, something shuddered in me.

< p > It was beautiful, smiling, charming & ndash; But there was something in her eyes that I could not call.

< p > and this look made me understand: she doesn't want me in his life.

< p > at the beginning she hid her reluctance.

< p > smiled at family meetings, M & oacute; mama mamo & mum & mum & but I felt that it was not honest. In time, she began to subtly move me.

< p > — Filip, maybe this Christmas we will go to my mother ? your mother will definitely understand &

< P >& Amp; MDASH; Honey, your mother is so overprotective. Maybe we should limit a little visit ?

< p > — You know, your mother probably has too much influence on you. Maybe it's time to become a little independent ?

< p > Filip laughed, he sold the topic, m & oacute; that I was exaggerating.

< p > but I felt that I was losing my son every day.

< p > and then came the day when everything changed.

< p > Natalia fell home to me, as if she had to do her life and death.

< p > — We have to talk — she said coldly, sitting in my salon.

< p > I was surprised.

< p > — What happened ?

< p > sheed her hands and looked at me as if she looked at someone who wants to get rid of as soon as possible.

< p > — We can't live like that — She started. & Amp; MDASH; Filip is still thinking about you. He calls you, visits you & Hellip; This is not normal.

< P >I felt something squeezed in my throat.

< p > — I see nothing wrong with this — I said calmly.

< p > — But I see.

< p > I looked at her, pr & oacute; to understand what she is going to.

< p > and then she said the sentence, which I will remember for the rest of my life.

< p > — Or me or she.

< p > I couldn't believe what I heard.

< p > — You want him to choose ?

< p > — Yes. Either we are a family or we will still have someone who interferes between us.

< p > intercourse ?

< p > I, mother, who raised him, was to be a problem for her ?

< p > When Filip came that evening, I was waiting for him with a trembling heart.

< p > I didn't even tell me to wire. He knew.

< p > — Mom & Hellip; & Amp; MDASH; started quietly.

< p > — So it's true ?

< p > leaving his eyes, nodded.

< p > — She said that if I didn't stop seeing you & Hellip; will leave.

< p > — And you ?

< p > silence.

< p > I understood.

< p > — You chose her.

< p > his look m & oacute; everything.

< p > I don't know how long I was sitting in an empty living room after it came out.

< p > I did not cry.

< p > I no longer had tears.

< p > I understood only one.

< p > I lost my son.

< p > not because he stopped loving me.

< p > but because he allowed someone to destroy our bond.

< p > and it hurt even more.

< p >< br />< Strong > See, as we wrote about in recent days: C & Oacute; Rka Daniel Martyniuk turned 6 years old. Surprising, as the son of Zenek celebrated this day
