Must Read: A SECOND CHANCE - Season 2 - Episode 23

. Maria frowned when she entered her room and saw Tony and Aice sitting on her bed. Alice wore a friendly smile whie Tony’s face was expressionless. She wanted t be rude but knew it wont go well.
‘what are you guys doing here?’ she asked.
‘Maria darling, morning. How was your night?’ Alice asked.
‘horrible. All thanks to you!’
Alice smiled ‘you had a nightmare?’
‘yes. And you are my night mare!’

Alice smiled again ‘Maria, i wanted to talk to….i mean your father and i wanted to have a conversation with you’
‘i dont care! I dont even want to converse with anyone now. Right now, what i want is for everyone to go to hell and burn to ashes for al i care. You allshould just leave me alone!!’ Maria said rudely.

Tony stood up and spoke for the first time ‘Maria, we just need to talk to you. Please just give us a listening ear at least, today is Saturday so you…..’
‘dad, i dont want to talk to you anymore,’ tears came to her eyes ‘i dont want to even call you dad anymore. You’ve hurt and betrayed me. You betrayed my late mother. You are trying to replace her with someone who is not even worthy to take her place. Do you even know what today is? Do you remember what today is?’
Tony looked at her as if thinking what that day was ‘what’s happening today?’
‘you are asking me? You are asking me whats happening today? Did you even love my mum at all? You dont even remember that today is the day she died eleven years ago!’
Tony raised a brow in surprise. It had skipped his memory. ‘yes, now i remember. So what do you want me to do about it?’
‘eh? Dad! Have you forgotten that every April 14th, we visit her grave with flowers? Have you forgotten that too?’
‘that time has passed Maria. That era is gone. We cant continue living like this, its eleven years now. We should forget about her. Lets move on. Lets forget…..’

Maria sobbed ‘i hate you! I hate you dad, i hate you more than i’ve ever hated anyone on my life. And you, Alice, you’ve succeeded in tearing my dad and i apart. You’ve finally succeeded.

Its okay, you might have won today but tomorow, you wont win. I assure you that, fools!’ and with that, she stormed out of the room.
Tony grunted in exasperation and sat on the bed ‘this was all your idea and now, it has bought us insults’
‘i really didnt bargain for all this. I thought Maria would be more reasonable than this. Honestly, Tony, do you think this marriage would work? Do you think we can ever be happy with this antagonist daughter of yours? Do you think…..’

‘yes! We can be happy, with or without her’
‘hell no! We can never be happy without her’
‘we can. I’m planning to send her abroad immediately after the wedding’
