Chapter 26 - Dad’s cane

Police eventually released the cane.

Caleb offered to throw it away.

I said no.

For months, it stayed in an evidence bag.

Then I took it to a woodworker.

He repaired the damage.

Polished the walnut.

Did not remove Dad’s initials.

I did not display it near the foyer.

I placed it inside Dad’s study.

Beside his desk.

Where it belonged.

An object Ryan had used badly did not get to rewrite who it had belonged to first.
