He Was Really Sick but I Didn’t Know How To Help Him
I heard the rattling of the front gate first. The padlock banged against the gate, clanging in an urgent way. I looked up from my reading in the living room and there you were, standing out there like a ghost from my past, waving at me and calling my name.
