Between a Father and a Son
Aladdin,
You may never see this letter. But I need to tell you something. I am sorry that I couldn't tell you this in person. I guess I was too afraid. But this needs to be said, and this may be the only way I can say it. I am sorry I couldn't give you the life you and your dear mother deserved. I am sorry I wasn't there to see you grow up to be the fine young man that you are. I should have been there, to watch you grow and to help your mother. Maybe if I hadn't left, she would be here today. She was a dear woman, loving and forgiving. She never gave up hope and knew that we could make it. I should have listen to her, I should have stayed with her. Unfortunately, that is in the past, and my beautiful wife is gone. I should tell you about her. I know you probably do not remember her that well. She was made for a better life. But she took everything in time and thanked Allah everyday for everything, good or bad. She could never hate anyone, not even Jafar, and yes, he was there before you were born. He was cruel to the people and went behind the Sultan's back on many things. But back to your mother, she was an angel. She helped me through everything. I wish I had been with her, and I missed her ever night while I was gone. I still miss her, with my whole heart. She would be proud to see how you have grown. She probably would say that you were like me in ways, but I would disagree with that. You are nothing like me. You are not the foolish, selfish man, who spent so many years looking for the so-called ultimate treasure, when his true treasure was home. But seeing you reminded me of how I used to be. Smart, honorable, a strong since of values, courage, and a good heart, a true diamond in the rough. Yes, my dear son, you are everything that I am not and I am proud that you are not. But enough of that.
I hope everything is well in Agrabah. Jasmine reminds me of your mother in some ways. Hold onto her, Aladdin, with your whole heart. Because you will regret it if you let her go, don't make the same mistakes as I did. I hope that you and her are doing well. How are the Sultan and your friends? Give my regards to Rasol; I am sure he is pining away about not having my head upon his wall.
Iago is missing you all, though he keeps denying. He still wants me to believe that he has very little heart, but that can be far from the truth at times.
I think I had better close this letter, since I have to get up early. We have a very long ride ahead of us.
I hope to see you again, Aladdin, but if I don't. Remember that I love you, my son, always.
