When Mommy Stops Waking Up — Episode 2

Three-year-old Lily makes porridge for her terminally ill mother, Mia, who has stomach cancer. On her deathbed, Mia tells Lily to contact her biological father, Ethan, but Vivian, the woman beside Ethan, intercepts and deletes the call. After Mia dies, Ethan takes Lily in and discovers she is his biological daughter. Vivian abandons Lily in the wilderness. A farewell letter falls from Lily's teddy bear, revealing the truth: years earlier, Ethan's father threatened Mia's parents' lives to force her to leave Ethan. Mia is miraculously reborn as Sophia, and Lily recognizes her at a banquet. Ethan confirms her identity through her signature gesture. He kneels and begs for forgiveness, but Mia refuses to forgive him. Ethan holds a press conference, exposes his father's crimes, and publicly declares his love for Mia. In the end, Mia holds Lily in her arms, smiles at Ethan standing at the foot of the steps, and the family walks through the door together.
