MUNTINLUPA, PHILIPPINES (Catholic Online) - In just eight hours, the video which the father himself uploaded on Facebook was played more than 80,000 times and had been liked for 3,580. The said video shows his little boy wiping the tears from his eyes at the start. When his father asked him if he is alright, he just quietly replied "Yep."
However, it was obvious that he is not alright and that there's something bothering the young one. He asked his son again if there's anything wrong but he just said that "all the water is coming out" that's why he is wiping them off his eyes. The father asked why and the little boy said nothing but his dad was persistent in asking, he said the heartbreaking statement: "Don't die."
The little boy became inconsolable from his sobs, wiping his tears and just went on crying while his father continue to ask him what made him think that he will. He asked his son what he thinks would cause his death that he was crying tirelessly, which most probably made the online audience tear up. The father later asked if the little boy wanted him to stop smoking and drinking.
"So you don't want your Dad to smoke or drink anymore?" he asked. His son, crying, answered "No." which made him think of fixing his life by quitting from his vices. He thought that because his son told him something that serious at his young age, it could mean deeper. "Don't cry it's all right," said the father. Although the clip started emotional wrenching, it ended happily as the little one stopped crying and his father reaching out to hug him.
