By the time Raymond finished reading, tears blurred the page completely.
For several minutes he simply sat there silently with one trembling hand resting on the old desk.
Not because of the furniture.

A few hours in a basement workshop.
One repaired desk.
One patient adult.
And one angry little boy who simply needed someone to believe he wasn’t beyond repair.
