Today was Barry’s eighth birthday. I wanted to make it unique, but unique things require money, and we don’t have any at the moment. Nevertheless, I managed to eke out enough cash for a modest meal at the neighborhood diner. Burgers and fries, nothing special. He didn’t voice any complaints. He never does. I looked at the menu when the waiter asked whether we wanted dessert, the pricing making my stomach turn. Barry took note. He shook his head before I could respond. With haste, he declared, “I’m full.” I was aware that he wasn’t. The man at the adjacent…

Their routine consisted of quiet understanding moments, loving pet care, and soothing murmurs. They were inseparable, but no one knew why. Then Mr.…

When I inquired about Malachi’s birthday plans, he shrugged, and I could see it in his eyes. Gazing at his scuffed sneakers, he muttered, “Gramma, I don’t really want a party.” However, I was aware of the reality. He wanted to keep his friends from seeing where we currently lived, not because he didn’t want a party. Things had been difficult ever since his mother died and I took him in. My fixed salary was insufficient, and my rent continued to rise. We had found ourselves in a little apartment in a seedy area of town. I observed Malachi’s hesitation…

The day had begun flawlessly, one of those infrequent, idyllic days when everything seemed to fall into place. I was already unusually rejuvenated when I woke up. On my walk to work, my favorite song was playing, the weather outside was crisp but not too chilly, and my coffee was just right. I was walking through the marketplace when I noticed a little wooden stall. Delicate wooden sculptures, each with minute details, were being carved by a guy with rough hands. I said to him, “Nice job,” as I picked up a pepper mill. It was well-made and felt sturdy.…

But the sight almost made me pass out when I arrived.
