As soon as the mother and son entered the house, she locked the door and looked at her son expectantly.
"Mike, did ….. did anything good happen today?" she asked hesitantly, not wanting to raise her hopes high but at the same time, couldn't help but be curious.
Seeing his mother acting the way she did last year again; he couldn't help but sigh helplessly but soon smiled brightly at her as he took out the cheque he had put in his pocket.
"Mom! We did it!" he excitedly said as he handed her the cheque over.
When Mike's mother saw the cheque, she stumbled a bit lucky there was a tattered sofa behind her, so she was able to hold on.
"You …. This is really true?" she asked, her voice shaking obviously with excitement.
"Haha. Mom, this term we don't have to worry about tuition. I will make sure to keep this momentum and do my best to relieve you of your burdens!" he swore solemnly as he helped his mother to the sofa.
