Write a story about the following situation: Parents help their son make up with his girlfriend.
For Fred, life wasn't all that bad. He had been single for over four years and had grown to dislike his girlfriend intensely. His parents, however, absolutely loved his ex-girlfriend Laura. They saw her as an angelic and faultless girl; the type of girl Fred needed around. What they didn't know was that she was actually extremely temperamental and prone to fits of screaming and crying. On several occasions, she had broken up with Fred for seemingly no reason at all, only to call him a few days later, explaining that she had made a mistake and wanted him back. Fred was overly nice and optimistic and, twice, took Laura back. Several months later, after intense fighting, the relationship finally ended once and for all. Fred took a week to let things even out but his parents were immediately disappointed. Laura was perfect and there was no way that this was anyone's fault but Fred's. They initially let it go, showing no signs of disappointment. In reality, they were trying to get Fred and Laura back together. It started with Fred's mother adding Laura on Facebook. They talked for a while with Laura upholding her innocent appearance but Fred's mother didn't want to risk bringing Fred up. Fred noticed this at once. He confronted his mother directly, told his mother the truth about Laura, and told her that Laura was a terrible person. His mother kept talking to her though.
Fred decided to do what he should have done a long time ago. He called Laura and calmly addressed the fact that his parents were still completely attached to her. She immediately saw this as a problem and deleted Fred's mother off of Facebook and never tried to contact her again.
