Jane and Smith were a couple who got married in 1984 in Los Angeles, they have a son named Jason, 19 years old. Jason was living in New York because he was at university, and he usually used to visit his parents 5 or 6 times a year, thus he was going to be at his parent's party that year. As Jane had never entered an occupation she used to take care of the house all day long. She wanted to be an elementary school teacher, but her husband, who was a doctor, asked her to be at home to take care of their son while he was working in the hospital. Smith went to Washington on a business trip on a Saturday night, but he promised his wife Jane to be home on Monday for their 25th wedding anniversary.
Smith's wife was in the living room on a phone call preparing the buffet when she suddenly felt her heart beats faster. She foreshadowed something was happening with her son. Immediately, she hung up the telephone and called her son. He didn't answer her calls then she called her husband to tell him that she was feeling strange. He answered the phone and told her to be calm and take a breath, because it was probably nothing and maybe she was just worried and nervous about the party they were going to give. During the day she could not think about anything else than what she was feeling and that it could come true. Actually, she had a nightmare with her son in which he suffered an accident and this would be terrible. Her only son that she was already missing so much because he was living in another place and now she was scared about these thoughts. Jane knew that she had just dreamed something bad but how could she know that it was not an announcement, or something like that? The problem was that nobody would believe in an announcement, everybody would say that it was nothing but a nightmare and that she should forget it and think about the anniversary, because she still had lots of things to do and prepare. She tried to call Jason again, but nothing happened. The thoughts were growing. She called him again and at this time he answered it. She told him everything and asked him not to come to avoid that something bad happened. He did not understand anything. Why did she believe that so much ? But Damn. He did not want to be there, because he had lots of homework from college, so he accepted and said that he was going to cancel the trip. In the afternoon somebody called Jane from a hospital to say that her son had had an accident driving to cancel a trip.
