Excited and happy. This has been shown Manuel Diaz in his appearance before the media to tell, explain and recount how one of the most important and desired days of his life came about; his meeting with his biological father, also a bullfighter Manuel Benitez .
Manuel, very moved, told what he felt on the day of the reunion: “And then the day comes and at that moment it is the first time in my life that I hear the word of someone who has been wanting to hear all my life. He is waiting for me in Halfway there, I jumped out of the car and he told me: ‘Son, everything is coming, we’re here’. Those words stuck inside me. At that moment the world clouded over. I saw myself with him. I touching him and he touching me I have never felt that feeling in my life with anyone. I couldn’t believe it.”
Díaz has chosen this Tuesday to summon all the media and explain the last chapter of the story of his life, in the search for recognition by his father has been his backbone. After giving thanks for the support always received by the media in this odyssey of filial rapprochement, he has recounted how father and son finally approached positions and starred in an emotional reunion on February 14, coinciding with Valentine’s Day .
Moved, he began by saying that “I had heard the truth, but I needed mine.” Later, he recounted how he knew that he had the biological reason that the physical resemblance already evidenced: “I have to know for sure because I am afraid, although it seems hard and that I have always pushed forward, I have suffered that fear. It is clear that I do not regret it and my truth came out. I was in the field, that situation is very traumatic… suddenly I receive a phone call saying that I have 99%… it says that we are compatible”.
The son of Cordoba claims to have fulfilled all his wishes since he was a child: “I wanted to get under him, to snuggle up.”
