My son left me on a deserted road because of his wife, but no one could have imagined what would happen a month later
I raised my son on my own. From the very first days of his life, he was everything to me. I lived for him.
I didn’t buy myself dresses, never took days off, and I can’t remember the last time I slept peacefully — everything was for him. I worked day and night: at the post office, cleaning, washing dishes in a café. When people asked why I was exhausting myself, I always said: “I want my son to have everything I never had.”
I believed that when I got old, he would be there.
That he wouldn’t leave me, wouldn’t betray me. He always said: “Mommy, when I grow up — I’ll buy you a house and a car!” And I believed him. Because he was my boy.
But everything changed when a girl appeared in his life. I knew from the first glance — she wouldn’t bring anything good. She looked at me with a cold smirk.
She never called me by name. Not “ma’am,” not “mom” — just “you.”
She immediately started convincing him that I was “holding him back.” She shamed him for helping me and said:
— Why are you giving money to your mom? Let her work if she wants to eat.
— Stop dragging her around. You have your own family now. She schemed, talked him out of visiting me.
Told people I was “manipulating him,” though I was only calling occasionally to ask if he was okay. Once I brought him a pie — she threw him out saying:
— Let her wash her hands from someone else’s kitchen before bringing food. He grew colder.
Every day I felt I was losing my son. And then — one morning — he said:
— Mom, I want to take you somewhere. Just stay there for a while.
Rest. There was no warmth or care in his voice. I felt where he was taking me.
But I went. Because he was my child. We drove for a long time.
Farther and farther from the city. At some point, he stopped. A desolate road.
No houses, no people. Only sand and wind. — Get out, he said.
I got out. He didn’t look me in the eye. He silently shut the door and drove off, leaving me in the middle of nowhere.
Back then, I couldn’t have imagined that just a month later, my son would come back begging for forgiveness x But who needs it now? I stood there in disbelief. It felt like my heart had been ripped out.
