Chapter 13 - The Store Where I First Disguised Myself Became the First Place I Gave Employees OwnershipWe returned to the original store.
The same produce section.
New lights.
New freezers.
Happy employees.
Register Three was still there.
We held a ceremony.
Every employee received shares.
Cristiana stood beside me.
I handed her the first certificate.
She cried.
“This is real?”
“Yes.”
“You're giving us ownership?”
“Yes.”
“Why?”
“Because you helped save the company.”
She shook her head.
“No.”
She corrected me.
“We saved it.”
I smiled.
She was right.
The store applauded.
I looked around.
People who had once been afraid now stood confidently.
That was the change.

Power wasn't something one person kept.
It was something people shared responsibly.
