Chapter 13 - On Caleb’s Thirteenth Birthday, Grandpa Gave Him the One Gift He Had Spent His Entire Life Protecting—A ChoiceGrandpa gave Caleb a small wooden box.

Inside was a photograph.

Me.

Caleb.

Sarah.

And Grandpa.

Caleb smiled.

“Who's Sarah?”

“Your grandmother.”

He looked at the photo.

“She looks kind.”

“She was.”

Grandpa said:

“She wanted you to have a normal life.”

Caleb asked:

“Did she?”

Grandpa looked away.

“No.”

Then he handed Caleb a key.

“The choice is yours.”

“What does it open?”

“Nothing yet.”

Caleb laughed.

“Then why give it to me?”

“Because one day, you'll decide what you want to build.”

Caleb hugged him.

That moment healed something in Grandpa.
