Liver failure
When Sarah was seven years old, her mother passed away from liver failure. Doctors could unfortunately not do anything to save her. From this moment on, it was just Sarah and her father. The two had a great connection, but it could never completely replace the love Sarah and her mother had for each other.
So when she met the love of her life, there was one thing that bugged Sarah.
Love
Sarah’s boyfriend and her dad got on very well from the first moment they met. Her dad had come to see him as a son of his own. The two supported the same football teams, so they would often visit games together. But still, there was this nagging feeling that Sarah had. Se was sad that her mom would never be able to meet her boyfriend.
This realization hurt. Until she made a touching discovery.
Quirky habit
Sarah’s boyfriend had a quirky habit: he loved to impersonate people on the TV. He would do their voices and mimic their movements. Coincidentally, this was also something that Sarah fondly remembered her mother doing. She knew for certain that her mom would have loved her boyfriend.
It made Sarah very sad that her boyfriend would never meet her mom.
Youth
Sarah and her boyfriend had grown up in the same neighborhood in Australia, but they had not met until a year ago. They had completely different groups of friends and had attended different schools. They were both great students and both were adored by their teachers.
Sarah was about to discover something unbelievable.
Visiting his house
One day, Sarah was over at her boyfriend’s house. The two still lived with their parents, so her boyfriend’s mother was also around. A lovely woman, she would always pamper Sarah whenever she came to visit. But what she did on this particular visit would change everything.
She had something to show Sarah.
The photo album
Sarah’s boyfriend was pretty embarrassed when his mother brought up this sensitive subject. He didn’t like looking back at his youth, because he had always been a bit of a class clown. His mother told Sarah that there was one school picture on which her boyfriend had managed to get away with pulling a silly face.
Sarah had no idea what she was in for.
“Don’t, mom. Don’t!”
Sarah’s boyfriend snatched the photo album out of his mother’s hands before she was able to show the picture to Sarah. He didn’t want his girlfriend to see this embarrassing picture. It took a lot of convincing for him to finally surrender the album to his girlfriend.
She had no idea that she was about to discover something heart-rending.
The photo
Sarah flipped through the pages, until her boyfriend’s mother told her she had gotten to the right picture. She laughed out loud while pointing out her son’s silly face. Sarah couldn’t believe her eyes. She stared at the photo in complete shock, her mouth wide open.
This was unbelievable…
Shock
The mother of Sarah’s boyfriend saw the shock on her face and asked Sarah if she was okay. Sarah said nothing. Now Sarah’s boyfriend was also getting worried. He shook her shoulder, but got no reply. Sarah was staring at the picture. They noticed tears welling up in her eyes.
What was going on?
Love for kids
Sarah’s mother, when she was still alive, had loved kids. She had so much love for them that it extended past her own child. Leah’s mom became a school teacher so she could share the love she felt with other children. She worked at an elementary school in the area until her death.
She adored her students…
Favorite teacher
And her students loved her back. She was the favorite teacher of many kids. Sarah wasn’t the only kid who missed her when she passed away. Pretty much the whole elementary school was in mourning when they lost the popular teacher.
Sarah had discovered something incredible. Something she had never thought about.
Something in the photo
Sarah had been staring at the photo album for minutes on end, with tears streaming down her face. Her boyfriend and his mother didn’t know what to do. Finally she moved. Sarah pointed at something on the page, while still remaining silent.
Her boyfriend followed her finger to whatever she was pointing out on the photograph.
Pointing
The person Sarah was pointing at wasn’t her boyfriend, who was making a silly face. Although this was the reason why they had started looking at the photograph in the first place, this wasn’t the focus of Sarah’s attention. No, she was pointing at someone else.
Her trembling finger was pointing at the teacher.
