The Changes by Yulia Kolomiets

Spouses Tom and Mary did want to have children.
But they could not manage to have a child for a long time. So they put a lot of effort and a lot of money for treatment in hospital. 
And finally after a long treatment and a severe pregnancy, they succeeded. For their suffering, fate finally gave them a gift. Their long - awaited son Jack became for them a whole world. They loved and adored him. They tried to give him all the best. They protected him from all life's troubles and in the end he grew up completely uncooperative.
He was a home child and rarely left home and he had no friends except the girl living next door. Thus all his childhood passed away. When he finished school and it was time to leave home, the Tom and Mary took it very painfully. And to tell the truth, Jack was also not ready for this. He was comforted only by the fact that his neighbor Anna would go along with him, because she entered the same university.
All the more disappointed that the university, in which the guys went to study was very far from their home. Therefore the nearest meeting with parents could take place only in half a year. At the moment when the spouses saw off their son, they could not imagine how he could survive alone so far from home.
At that moment they could not even think that in half a year they would not recognize the guy who is standing in front of them with a large backpack on their shoulders and tears in their eyes.
But soon it happened. After arriving home, Jack struck all those people who knew him before leaving. Anna and half a year of independent life made him an entirely different person. He grew up and became serious. Now he became responsible not only for himself, but also for Anna. He even proposed to her.
His parents were shocked at how their son had changed. They understood their mistakes and began not only to love jacks but also to respect him what is sometimes much more important.
