Sixteen-year-old Joey left his rural home to pursue his dreams, leaving a note for his widowed mother, Flora. Despite his love for her, he felt constrained and dreamed of becoming a doctor. Thirteen years later, he returned to find the house deserted, with only a half-burnt note from Flora expressing her longing for him.
Determined to find her, Joey discovered Flora had been hospitalized. They tearfully reunited, and he shared his journey and plans to rebuild the farm. They agreed never to be apart again, opting to move to the city until the farmhouse was restored.
