Forgiveness?
The big question
Previous ChapterAs Chase walked back into Posey's house, he walked to the shack area of her house to put back the watering bucket and hang out with Rose afterwards and assist her with her needs. During the process, he walked past his father Hitch who was attempting to talk to him and apologize by, Chase disregarded him as if he wasn't there in his sight. At this moment, Sunny walked back into the house with a depressed expression.
"After what you two did to him, this is what you two deserve." Posey said shooting them a glare. "Chase is a sweet, smart and helpful colt, he always volunteers to assist those who are in need, he is even your own son, this is how you treat him after a mistake that he didn't even do?" She asked incredulously.
Sunny and Hitch could only lower their heads in shame when they heard Posey's statement to them about what they did to their own son Chase. They did the action, now, they must face the repercussions of being disregarded by their own son due to his hatred towards them after their horrendous action towards him which he would never ever forgive. But, that wouldn't stop the two from attempting to earn his forgiveness.
At this moment, Rose walked to her lover Chase and embraced him in a hug and nuzzled him and Chase nuzzled back. The sight has shocked both Sunny and Hitch, did their son find love without them knowing?
Chase and Rose then decided to ignore both Sunny and Hitch by going upstairs to read books together which they both absolutely enjoy due to them being clever ponies at school. However, Sunny stopped them.
"Chasey wait!"
Luckily, Chase and Rose managed to stop in the nick of time. Then, the young earth pony colt looked at his mother.
"What is it now mother?" Chase asked with an aggravated expression. "Or should it be Sunny now?" He asked bitterly which made Sunny swallow a lump from hearing her son say her real name.
"Chase, we only want to have a chat with you calmly, we're not looking for any confrontations." Hitch told him in a persuading tone. "So, please?" He pleaded.
Although Chase was not in the mood in having any conversations with his parents right now due to his ongoing anger towards them but, his father's expressions seem very persuading. A brief second later, the young colt let out a sigh before walking to his parents.
"Thank you so much Chasey." Sunny said with a relieved smile.
Once Chase got to his parents, he stood approximately eight centimetres from them with Rose next to him.
"What do you two want?"
"Chase baby, you have no idea how much we've been worrying about you." Sunny told him. "We've posted missing posters of you everywhere hoping that somepony would know where you are but, to no avail." She said in a sad tone.
"Yeah, but luckily, we've encountered Posey who kindly lead us to you." Hitch said with a smile.
"Pfft, you two never cared about me last time, so, why do you even care now?" Chase asked with a raise of his right eyebrow.
"I know and we're sorry about our neglectful attitudes towards you in the past." Sunny said with an apologetic expression to her son Chase. "I didn't meant for that to happen." She finished.
"Well, you've made it clear because you didn't wanted me in my life Sunny Starscout." Chase told her. After that, the colt turned around and attempted to walk away from his parents but suddenly, somepony grabbed his hoof. Chase turned around to see his mother Sunny looking down at him with tears in her eyes.
"Chase, I'm so sorry for everything." Sunny apologized. "I've regretted from the day where I and your father should've attended game night with you but instead, we only cared about feeding Sparky." She said.
"Yeah me too." Hitch said as he walked up to his son son Chase with a sad expression of his own. "I regretted in not praising you for earning a good grade in your exams once again as well as refusing to buy you the new pony kart game causing them to sell out, I am an idiot and a horrible father for disregarding you like that." He finished.
"And when Sparky got maimed, I didn't even bothered to ask you what had happened, instead, I resorted in punishing you and hitting you." Sunny said as she bit her right hoof "You didn't provoke the situation, Sparky only fell by accident and you tried to help him calm down." She finished as tears streamed down her cheeks and Chase only nodded in response.
"Chasey baby, I'm so sorry for everything, I truly am, I didn't realise what a horrible mother I was to you. I was a moron for not listening to you, and a monster for ignoring you." She confessed in a shameful tone. "Do you think that you could forgive me and daddy for everything?" She asked.
Chase then began to ponder about this hypothetical situation. Although he is still technically a little hurt from that night, and the memory is still haunting his poor little mind. Luckily, those persuading words and the body languages of his parents managed to persuade him and give them some empathy for their actions. Therefore, Chase took a deep breath before exhaling it. After that, he looked at his parents with a smile on his muzzle.
"Yes daddy and mommy, I forgive you two." He said with a smile.
Both Sunny and Hitch began to cry tears of happiness when they heard this, then, Chase leaped towards his parents and embraced them in a loving hug and they returned the hug.
"Oh Chasey!" Sunny cried in happiness.
"Son! Welcome back!" Hitch cried in happiness too.
Posey and Rose both couldn't help but cry at the touching scene. However, Rose was seen blushing slightly due to how handsome Chase was, she has officially fell in love with the little colt.
"Chase is so handsome."
