Adam didn\u2019t visit his mother for years, neglecting her after he started having a life of his own. One day, he had to pick up some documents from her home, only to find the home destroyed and abandoned. Diana Evans raised her son Adam alone. Although she<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

struggled, she worked very hard to feed him and pay for his education. After graduating from high school, he decided to attend a university halfway across the country. Although Diana was sad, she happily sent Adam off to study and live in New York while she<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

remained in California. They would keep in touch during his first few years there, and he would call his mother whenever he had time. Diana never got to visit Adam in New York throughout his years in college.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Their primary mode of communication was through phone calls, and although these started to lessen as time passed, Diana still appreciated them very much.When Adam was set to graduate from university, he called his mom to invite her over. \u201cHey, mom!\u201d he said on the phone.\u201cHi Adam, it\u2019s so great to hear from you! How have you been?\u201d she said excitedly. \u201cI\u2019m good, mom! I\u2019m calling because I\u2019m finally graduating in two weeks.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Will you be able to come over?\u201d he asked. Hearing that, Diana was so proud and could feel her tears coming. She\u2019d do anything to see her precious son march to get his diploma. \u201cOf course, Adam. I\u2019ll be there. I wouldn\u2019t miss it! I\u2019m so proud of you!\u201d She smiled. After ending the call, Diana proceeded to look for flights to New York. She was surprised to see how expensive the flights were, and she immediately realized she didn\u2019t have enough<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

money to purchase a round-trip ticket and a special graduation gift for Adam. She decided to take in some extra work as a babysitter to earn money. She babysat for long hours to earn her money faster. When she had enough savings, she excitedly purchased her ticket and went to the department store to buy Adam a gift. Diana circled the store for a couple of minutes before settling with a watch. She realized that any professional needed a nice and decent watch, so she wanted to give one to her son. \u201cPlease wrap it nicely with a ribbon,\u201d she told the saleslady. \u201cIt\u2019s a graduation gift for my son. He\u2019s graduating from a top university in New York!\u201d she gushed.\u201cThat\u2019s awesome! You must be so proud.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Congratulations!\u201d the saleslady said, packing the watch. A couple of days later, Diana excitedly made her way to New York. Adam picked her up from the airport, and together they drove to his campus, where the graduation ceremony would start shortly. Diana excitedly pulled out her cellphone and started to snap pictures. When it was Adam\u2019s turn to receive his diploma, she couldn\u2019t help but stand and cheer her heart out. \u201cThat\u2019s my son!\u201d she exclaimed. After the ceremony, Adam met Diana and enveloped her in a hug. \u201cOh, son, congratulations!\u201d she said as they embraced. \u201cThanks, mom. This is all because of you,\u201d he smiled. \u201cLet\u2019s have a good dinner now,\u201d he said, walking with his mom<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

towards the university exit. Adam and Diana ate at a fancy New York steak restaurant and had a nice dinner together. At first, Diana was worried about the bill, until Adam told her not to. \u201cI took a part-time job while studying, mom. This is my treat to you. Thank you for taking care of me all these years,\u201d he said, squeezing her hand. Diana was in tears. She was so grateful that Adam grew up to be such a kind gentleman. \u201cI\u2019m proud of you, son,\u201d she said. \u201cI got you something, too. It\u2019s nothing great, but I hope you like it.\u201d She took out the gift box and handed it to Adam. \u201cYou really didn\u2019t have to get me anything, mom,\u201d he said as he opened it.When he saw that it was a watch, he was surprised. \u201cThis is beautiful, mom. Thank you,\u201d he said with a big smile on his face. \u201cI\u2019m going to wear this to work every day. That way, I\u2019ll always have you with me.\u201dThat night, the mother and son spent the night talking to one another, taking photos, and simply enjoying New York\u2019s sights. After a couple more days in New York, Diana had to fly back to California. \u201cWill you be visiting home soon, Adam?\u201d she asked, suddenly remembering that she was back to living alone. \u201cI\u2019ll try, mom. I do have some job interviews lined up, so I\u2019m not sure when I\u2019ll get to. I promise to call, though,\u201d he assured her. With that, Diana nodded contently.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unfortunately, that promise was short-lived. Adam used to call his mom every other day, but that slowly diminished until the calls just stopped coming. During one of their final calls, Diana showed signs of depression caused by her loneliness. \u201cI\u2019ve lost a lot of weight, and I don\u2019t really have an appetite,\u201d she would share. \u201cYou should eat, mom. Go out and talk to your neighbors and take walks in the park,\u201d Adam said, shrugging off the signs she\u2019d share. For years, Adam would check on his mother once in a while but he was busy working in Wall Street and maintaining his relationship with his model girlfriend that these calls became too few.One day, he decided to put up his own firm in New York. For that, he needed documents from California which he couldn\u2019t ask his mom to simply mail. So at the last minute, he took a flight back home and traveled to their house without telling his mom. But when he got there, he was not expecting what he saw. Their house was torn down and filled with cobwebs. The fences were on the floor, and the grass lawn looked as if it hadn\u2019t been trimmed in years. He looked inside and saw the house empty save for some ruined furniture.Adam proceeded to call his mother, but she was not answering, so he walked to the next-door neighbor\u2019s house to ask him what happened.\u201cHi, Mr. Green,\u201d he said as soon as their long-time neighbor answered the door. \u201cAdam? Is that you?\u201d he asked. \u201cWhat are you doing here?\u201d \u201cIt\u2019s me, Mr. Green. Where\u2019s mom? What happened to our house?\u201d he said, feeling both guilty and scared. \u201cOh, well, remember that storm that hit California a couple of months ago? Our homes were severely damaged. Your mom didn\u2019t have enough money to repair it, and she said she didn\u2019t want to burden you, so she moved to a nursing home,\u201d Mr. Green explained. \u201cWhat? Why don\u2019t I know any of this?\u201d Adam said, shocked. \u201cWhere is her nursing home?\u201d he asked. After getting the address, he quickly made his way there. When he arrived, he saw Diana, frail and in a wheelchair. \u201cMom,\u201d he said, in tears, as soon as he saw her. \u201cAdam? What are you doing here?\u201d Diana asked. \u201cMom, I\u2019m so sorry for not paying more attention to you. I\u2019m sorry I wasn\u2019t there when you needed me the most,\u201d he said, on his knees in front of his mom\u2019s wheelchair. He was sobbing, feeling guilty for having neglected his mother for years. \u201cAdam, don\u2019t be ri<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
