Jack went to his mom’s boss, Mr. Jefferson, to ask for paid days off for his mother, Debra, who worked as a cleaner. Jack explained that his mom never takes breaks because she needs the money to support him. Mr. Jefferson was surprised and asked if things were hard at home. Jack said it was just him and his mom since he never met his dad, and he felt bad hearing her cry from exhaustion.

Mr. Jefferson’s daughter, who was the same age as Jack, spoke up, saying her dad worked too much and didn’t spend enough time with her, just like Jack wished for more time with his mom. This made Mr. Jefferson realize he had been neglecting his family.

The next day, Mr. Jefferson called Debra to his office. At first, she feared she was being fired. Instead, he told her she was one of the hardest workers and invited her and Jack to go on a fully paid family vacation with him. He also offered her a new job working for his family, living in a cottage on their estate, with fewer work hours so she could spend more time with Jack.

He gave her a bouquet from Jack and encouraged her to enjoy time with her son. Debra and Jack went on the vacation and later moved into their new home on the estate, starting a better life together.
