But Candy Carson was ready to leave her job and to care about her sons, while her husband was busy although from time to time she felt like a single mother. In fact, Candy thought, her husband had to work a lot. It was the reason, why he stayed alive that awful night, when they were on their way from Detroit to Yale.



When Candy was a student, she missed her home at Detroit. Of course, she dreamed to come home for Christmas, but she has no opportunity, because she was lack of money. The same thing happened to fellow student Ben, two years older. He was also from Detroit and dreamed to earn enough money to come home on the 25th of December. Both of them asked administration of their faculty to sponsor their ride home. The students were given their money, but the administration asked them to do some recruiting job. While doing their job, Candy and Ben got closer. He felt that this ordinary, not extremely beautiful but very kind girl had a great heart, was clever and talented. They got closer during their work and decided to come home together. They spent great holidays and decided to hire a car to return to Yale. Ben drove the whole night and got asleep just being at the wheel. Candy was sleeping too and both they got up, when the car lost its way. Ben managed to take the vehicle under control before the accident had happened. The young people felt, the death was close. They thought, God saved their lives, because they had to do something important for their country.
