Adam, once close to his mother Diana, grew distant as he built a life of his own. After college, he rarely visited
or kept in touch. Diana, who had raised him alone, had always supported him and sacrificed for his education,
even sending him off to New York. Despite the distance, she always held on to the hope of seeing him again.
When Adam graduated, Diana scraped together the money to attend his ceremony, buying him a gift and proudly watching him receive his diploma.
Afterward, Adam treated her to dinner, expressing gratitude for her sacrifices. But once Diana returned home,
their communication faded. Adam, busy with work and a new relationship, stopped calling, and Diana’s loneliness deepened.
Years later, Adam traveled back to California to collect some documents, only to find his childhood home abandoned and in disrepair.
Neighbors told him that a storm had damaged the house, and Diana, too proud to ask for help, had moved to a nursing home.
Shocked and guilt-ridden, Adam visited his mother and apologized for neglecting her.
Diana, frail but forgiving, welcomed him back. Adam promised to care for her from then on. He repaired their home,
brought her out of the nursing home, and started his business in California. Together with his girlfriend,
they made sure Diana was never alone again. The family, once fractured, was now whole again, living happily together.
