Have you ever met someone who is ready to lose anybody to achieve his dream?
Mark was that person, when his parents didn’t support his dream to be singer and kicked him out of the house. He didn’t think once of agreeing to his parent’s terms. He was on streets looking for place to stay. He was glad that his part time job salary would help him find a cheap place. He messaged and gave a call to every number he had of house owners that he got from the newspapers. At the chilly night, he was on park laying on bench waiting for at least one house owner to call him back.

While he was laying, a flyer came by flying his way and fell on top of his face. He looked at it and there was number mentioned along with the lines “We are there for you, call us anytime” at the end of the paper HOME was written but it looked like it was a part of a sentence as part of the flyer was torn. Nevertheless the word home gave him hope to finding a house to stay at, So he gave a text to the given number mentioned at the flyer. He got a reply from the number .
Text message from Unknown to Mark:
Hello!
Thanks for texting us.
I am Lisa, Please tell me your problem.
Seeing the message mark told that he was kicked out hoping that he would get a house immediately seeing the text from him.
He got a message back saying:
I am sorry that happened but may I know why you where kicked out.
Mark was confused on why would a complete stranger would like to know about him. Nevertheless, he told everything because he had nothing to lose.
He got a reply saying:
Wow, You are so passionate about your dream.
I am so sorry that you were not supported by your parents. I am sure that one day they would support you. Focus on your dream, I am sure that you would be successful at it. Don’t be sad thinking about your problems rather focus on your dreams. I am here for you so text me anytime.
Reply from Mark:
Thanks for your message, I hope everything would turn out well too. So, do you have a place to stay at?
Text from Lisa:
I can ask my friend for you to stay at his place, he is looking for a roommate .
Reply from Mark:
Awesome !
Please give me his phone number, I will speak to him.
Mark gave a call to the given number, The person agreed to accept Mark as his roommate. Thankfully the apartment was nearby to the park, so he went there. He liked the apartment and thanked Lisa for helping him get a place to stay at. Next day, he got a call from the record label saying that he got selected. Mark told Lisa about it and messaged her everyday because she was his only friend. They both liked each other’s company and knew everything about each other. They decided to meet at a café. They met again a few more times and eventually fell in love with each other. Mark decided to confess his love to Lisa when they were going to meet up again. The few months talking to Lisa made Mark happy. When he was about to step out of his house to meet Lisa, his parents showed up at his house and apologized for their actions. Mark accepted their apology and confessed his love to Lisa that day. They officially became a couple and supported each other in everything they do. Few more months went by and Mark became successful and gained a lot of audience. He became famous and Lisa was happy that Mark’s hard work paid off. They got married after a year of dating each other. They were happy and Mark finally asked what that flyer was about to which Lisa said:
It was a helpline number to which you can share your problems with us for emotional and psychological support.
Mark questioned about the word HOME in it.
Lisa said: Home is where you feel loved, appreciated and safe.
Mark was glad that he gave a text to that number due to which he has a lovely home now. That helpline number bought love and happiness to his life.
