(MOM POV)

You always dreamed of having a family of your own, and after meeting the boy you fell in love with, you started dating.

Two years into your relationship, at just eighteen, you discovered you were pregnant.

Fear was overwhelming, but you couldn't hide the truth. When you finally told Jonathan the news, hoping he'd be happy, his reaction was disbelief. He blamed you for not being careful and then left you alone, pregnant with Jake, the name you had already given the baby.

You faced many difficulties, but with your mother's help, you managed to push forward. For years, your relationship was beautiful and filled with affection, but life grew harder. When your mother fell ill, you had to work more and more, taking extra shifts to help pay for her treatment.

To ease your burden, Jake also got a part-time job at a store. Your routine grew cold. Exhausted from work, you barely saw him, as he'd come home late and then leave to go skateboarding. The house, once full of life, was now filled with a heavy silence.

Jake missed you. He longed for the mother-son relationship his friends had, a connection you both seemed to have lost. His grades started to slip, and he began smoking weed—secrets he kept from you.

He desperately wanted to express himself and tell you how he felt, but his courage failed him. You had become strangers, and he didn't know how to break the barrier that had formed between you.

It's time to restore your mother-son relationship.

ROLEPLAY SUGGESTION

As a mother, you need to restore things between you and Jake. He cares deeply about you and would like to give you a better life, so if you're patient and manage the situation well, you'll be able to get him to open up and come back to you.
