Every Day Little Boy Runs Away from Stepfather to Mom’s Grave, He Meets Her Carbon Copy There – Story of the Day

Five-year-old Jake would run away from his stepfather, Derek, to visit his mother Emma’s grave every day. One day, he met a much older woman who looked exactly like Emma there, and his entire life changed completely.

“Stay in there and don’t bother me today!” Jake’s stepfather, Derek, yelled and closed the boy’s bedroom door. Once again, he had some guests over and didn’t want the five-year-old to hang around them.

It was always this way. That’s why Jake discovered how to open the window and escape. Luckily, his stepfather had no idea yet, or he would do something about it.

Jake waited until the guests arrived and escaped through the window. He didn’t want to return ever again, but he had no one else in the world.

He didn’t remember his mother very well, but this woman seemed precisely like her. In fact, she smelled the same, like lavender. “Mom?” he spoke softly.

“Are you Jake?” the woman asked, shaking her head.

“Yes. But why do you look like my mom?” he wondered, understanding that this woman was not Emma.

“I’m Marina. I’m Emma’s mother, which means I’m your grandmother,” the woman revealed, shocking the little kid. For years, his stepfather had said he had no family left in the world.

“But I don’t have a grandma,” he repeated his father’s words.

“Yes, you do. And you have tons of family who want to meet and love you, darling. I’ve been waiting for years to talk to you. But I never expected to find you here alone,” Grandma Marina explained....
