It was a normal day. Beth was preparing dinner while she was waiting for her son, James, who was late from school once again. The whole week he was being late and each day he was using a different excuse.
Today, it was chess club. He told his mother that he would like to eat in his room as he told her that he had too much homework.
James forgot his backpack in the living room, as he rushed upstairs to his room. When Beth saw the backpack, she decided to check it. In it, she found a note with an unfamiliar handwriting where an address was written on it.
Beth decided to take a hot shower that evening. After shower, while she was drying her hair, she dropped her brush. As she knelt down to pick the brush up, she noticed a shiny lens looking at her.
There, she found the nanny cam she bought when James was a small boy. She was in shock. She directly went to her son’s room. When she knocked the door, the sound of the keyboard stopped.
His door was locked. She demanded James to open the door. In seconds, the door was opened. When Beth showed the nanny cam, James went pale.
“MOM IT’S NOT WHAT YOU THINK! I SWEAR I CAN EXPLAIN!”
“Then explain.”
“ı… You… You weren’t supposed to find it yet. Do you remember when you used to sing at the open mic of the coffee shop we would go before dad abandoned us?”
“I wanted to surprise you but, I better show it to you rather than explaining.”
He then showed his laptop to his mother. James was recording the singing of Beth. She was happy when she was singing, and James was making a music video for her mother as he wanted her to be happy.
As Beth was surprised, she couldn’t hold her tears back. James was crying too. He hugged to his mother, as Beth embraced her son.
What do you think? Let us know.
