She had no answer.

That night, I gave her money and told her to find another place to live. I explained that while she would always be my mother, my wife and newborn son were now my responsibility to protect.

Later that evening, I cooked a proper meal for Hue for the first time in weeks. As she ate, she cried with relief. Holding our baby in her arms, she said it was the first time since giving birth that she truly felt at home.

In that moment, I realized something important: money can buy many things, but real care must come from the heart.
