Soldier Surprises Mom During New House Walk-Through After Deployment

A mom who crossed the country to inspect the new home of her soldier son she thought was overseas fell to her knees in shock when she found him inside the house. Aretha Johnson is extremely proud of her son, Marsayon, a Private First Class with the United States Army, and for the past year the pair have been apart while Marsayon served in South Korea. Due to their closeness, Aretha did not hesitate when her son asked if she would travel from her home in Oklahoma to be the one carrying out the walk-through in his first-ever home, in Central Texas. It felt great, Aretha said, knowing her son was in the final stages of the "American Dream" of owning his own home, and having arrived at the new-build property, she couldn't wait to look around. After making her way through the property, Aretha reached the open-plan kitchen, where she froze in shock as she saw a familiar face walk into the room. As soon as everything clicked, Aretha let out a scream, put her hands on her head, and fell to the floor in shock. Marsayon then crossed the room and gave his mom a long-awaited hug, which was captured on video and shared by realtor Teasia Cooper.
