Once inside the plane, before takeoff, Marco took the microphone.
—Ladies and gentlemen passengers, today we have on board the woman who made it possible for us to be here. Our mother sold everything she owned so that we could study aviation. This flight is dedicated to her.
The cabin fell silent.
Paolo continued:
—The bravest woman we know isn’t famous or rich. She’s a mother who believed in us when we had nothing.
The passengers began to applaud.
Some were crying.
Teresa trembled with excitement as the plane took off.
When the wheels left the ground, he closed his eyes.
« I’m flying… » he whispered.
But that was not the true destiny her children had prepared for her…
What she would see upon getting off the plane would change her life forever.
Part 2 …
And he felt that the sacrifice of years had finally found its reward.
THE FINAL GIFT
After the flight, her children drove her to Valle de Bravo.
The landscape was green, full of mountains and a lake.
They stopped in front of a beautiful house overlooking the water.
—Mom —Marco said, handing her some keys—, this is your house.
« You don’t have to work anymore, » Paolo added. « Now it’s our turn to take care of you. »
