April endures the harsh circumstances, hoping for a better future once legal matters are sorted out. But things take a turn when Judith falls seriously ill and comes to April for help, begging for forgiveness.

Her daughters notice the change, and one day, they ask why she sleeps in the garage. The question hits hard, and April has no answer except that sometimes adults have to make hard decisions. Judith remains cold and distant, enjoying her victory. However, one night, Judith knocks on the garage door, revealing her frail and sickly condition. She confesses her illness, admitting her regret for her past actions. Judith, who had once been heartless, now offers April the house as a form of reconciliation. April, though shocked, invites Judith in, and they share an awkward but important moment. Judith’s cancer diagnosis forces them to confront their past, and despite the hurt, April chooses to forgive. She takes Judith to doctor appointments and supports her through treatment, proving that family, even when fractured, can heal. In the end, despite their painful history, April and Judith begin to rebuild their relationship, showing that love and forgiveness can overcome even the deepest of wounds
