The Wesenbergs’ world shattered one Sunday when their son Ted drowned in their backyard pool. Despite desperate attempts to save him, it was too late. His parents, Linda and Paul, spiraled into grief, blaming each other and neglecting their younger son, Clark. “All they cared about was who was to blame for their other son’s death,” thought Clark, feeling unloved and forgotten.

Their home, once filled with love, turned into a battlefield. Clark couldn’t bear the constant fighting. “I hate you both!” he cried one night before running away to the cemetery, clutching dahlias for Ted’s grave. There, he poured out his pain: “They no longer love me… Please come back, Ted.”

As Clark sought solace, a group of teens in eerie robes startled him, but Mr. Bowen, the cemetery guard, intervened. Offering Clark warmth and understanding, Bowen listened to his fears. “What’s happened in your family is any parent’s worst nightmare,” Bowen said, sharing his own grief over losing his family. He urged Clark to forgive his parents, reminding him of their love.

Meanwhile, Linda and Paul, panicked by Clark’s disappearance, found him at Bowen’s cabin. Overhearing their son’s heartfelt worries, they realized their neglect. Linda embraced Clark tearfully, saying, “I’m so sorry, honey!” Bowen’s compassion and advice brought the family back together.

With time and support, the Wesenbergs healed, cherishing their love for one another while honoring Ted’s memory.
