There once lived a fourteen year old boy named Jake. He was neither rich nor happy. His father and mother were separated. They were always fighting about money; his mom was also insecure and had low-self esteem. Jake blamed his mom for ruining his life. So he could not stand being in her custody. She is always asking him for forgiveness.
Life in high-school was not easy for him. Many people teased him about his family background, but this was not the hardest part for him. He was jealous to see other kids with fathers/ complete families.
Jake woke up on one bright day. It was his birthday, and he was hoping that his father would visit him. What he was hoping for did not exactly come true. His father was going to visit him and was thinking of forgiving Jake’s mom. Suddenly, a truck crashed his car.
Jake knew that there is no way he could forgive his mother. So he ran away. He lived with one of his friends. He even dropped out of school.
The next day, as he was driving along, he crashed his car. He was immediately brought to the hospital. He lived, but he would be blind for the rest of his life if he does not find a donor to give him an eye.
He went back to the hospital two weeks later. The doctor said he found a donor. So they had the surgery. He opened his eyes. He could see! The surgery was successful.
After two years, his mother died. Jake shed no tears. He went to the funeral, but he did not regret running away. He looked inside the coffin and was shocked to find out that his mother only had one eye.
