Mia and her mom were incredibly close, sharing secrets and always being there for each other. One day, Mia’s mom informed her about renovating the house and advised Mia not to visit for a few months. As time passed, her mom became distant, and their calls less frequent. Although Mia sensed something was wrong, she was too busy with work to investigate.

One day, driven by a strong feeling that something was off, Mia decided to visit her mom. Upon arrival, she was shocked to see the overgrown garden, a stark contrast to her mom’s usual love for gardening. The unlocked door and the lack of any signs of renovation inside the house deepened her concern.

When Mia found her mom in bed, she barely recognized her—her mom’s hair was gone, her cheeks were pale, and she was too weak to move. Her mom revealed she had been battling cancer and undergoing chemotherapy for months, choosing to keep it a secret to avoid worrying Mia, who was focused on her career.

Mia, devastated by the revelation and filled with guilt for not visiting sooner, comforted her mom, expressing her love and gratitude. As she held her, her mom passed away in her arms. Mia remained there, clinging to their final moments together, overwhelmed by grief.

This story is a poignant reminder to stay connected with loved ones, no matter how busy life gets, and to trust our instincts when something feels wrong.
