I opened the door and stepped in. Raw pain filled me at the sight of my painting. ‘Show me what it looked like, before the fire.’ His request surprised me, but I did as he asked. With eyes closed, I projected the exact details of the painting I had poured my soul into. Just as I had experienced his love of surfing in a visceral way, he shared not just the visual beauty of my work, but the love and passion with which I had dedicated myself to it. ‘Thank you. Now, it will never truly be gone.’ I choked back a sob and went to Mr. K’s office.
