I barely knew Robert\u2014just some old man in the hospice where I volunteered. He didn\u2019t have visitors, no family, no one. But every time I came by, he\u2019d smile and say, \u201cAh, my favorite troublemaker.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last week, he grabbed my wrist, voice weaker than usual. \u201cOne last favor, kid,\u201d he whispered. \u201cTake this letter. No questions, no peeking.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The next day, I knocked on a tiny, worn-down house. A woman in her fifties answered. The moment she saw Robert\u2019s handwriting, her hands trembled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHe\u2019s alive?\u201d she whispered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before I could answer, she ripped it open, eyes filling with tears. \u201cHe left us 30 years ago.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Us?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then, a teenage girl appeared. \u201cWho\u2019s that, Grandma?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Robert had a daughter\u2014and a granddaughter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I thought that was the twist. But when I returned to tell him, the nurse met me at the door. \u201cI\u2019m sorry\u2026 Robert passed this morning.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then she handed me an envelope.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Inside: <strong>\u201cCheck locker #237. You\u2019ll understand.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At Union Storage, I found a trunk\u2014stuffed with cash, old letters, and a letter for his daughter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Robert hadn\u2019t asked for forgiveness. He just wanted to make things right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Maybe I should, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Life doesn\u2019t wait.
