Ellen Peterson, Mark's mother, walked into the beach house. She was worried about her son lately. He was spending all his time alone in this old and dirty beach house his uncle had given him.

It was not what a teenager his age would do.

"Mark?" she yelled to be heard inside the house. "Mark, son, are you here?"

She went to the kitchen and the living room searching for him. She went up the stairs and inot the big bed room, where Mark liked to sleep. "Mark?"

He wasn't there either. She walked to the bathroom door. It was closed. She knocked it and waited "Mark? Mark are you in there?"

She got no answer so she opened the door. That was when she saw him. It was Mark, he was laying there  unconscious in a bath tub full of water.

"Mark! Mark! What happened? Wake up!" she screamed and shook her son.

She took out her phone and called the emergencies. After some minutes a lady picked it up. "911 what is your emergency?"

"My son! I need and ambulance!" Ellen said while crying through her phone.

One month later

Jacqueline opened the door and walked inside. "Well, I figured I didn't get you anthing for your birthday, so I have something for you!" she smiled.

"Oh really? You shouldn't have!"

"Open it!" Jacqueline said and gave him and envelop.

Nathan opened the envelop and took out two tickets. "Are these what I think they are?" he asekd and smiled.

"Depends on what you are thinking." she laughed "They are tickets to Venice!"

"No way! Mum and dad are okay with this?" he asked.

"It took me a while to convince them, but I did it."

"That's so amazing Jacque! Thank you so much!"

"It was nothing really! But be sure to pack your stuff we're leaving in two days!" she said and walked out of his room.
