At forty-seven, Faith had learned that garages were time capsules disguised as storage spaces. Divorced for nearly a decade, she'd finally decided to tackle the mountain of boxes crowding every corner. What she hadn't expected was help from her twenty-three year old neighbor from across the street whose easy smile and movie-star looks seemed unfairly distributed by the universe. Saturday sunlight streamed through the open garage door as they sorted through old keepsakes. He carried boxes while Faith decided what stayed and what went. It was going smoothly—until he opened a faded cardboard box tucked behind an old dresser. "Uh... Faith?" he called, amusement creeping into his voice. She glanced over and immediately froze. In his hands was a stack of photographs she'd completely forgotten existed. They showed a twenty-something Faith at a summer festival, soaked from head to toe during a water-themed contest, laughing with friends beneath a spray of hoses. The fitted white T-shirt she wore had clearly suffered from the enthusiastic drenching. "Oh my goodness," she groaned, hurrying over. "I can't believe those survived." His eyebrows rose. "This is really you?" Faith felt heat rush to her cheeks. For a moment she considered snatching the photos away. Then she looked closer at the smiling young woman in the pictures—confident, carefree, and having the time of her life. "Yes," she admitted with a laugh. "That was me." Instead of teasing, he studied the photos with genuine fascination. "You looked like you were having an amazing time." His curiosity wasn't judgmental; it was warm and sincere. To her surprise, Faith's embarrassment faded. Soon she found herself sharing stories about that summer, smiling wider with every question he asked, while he listened as though each photograph revealed a new and intriguing chapter of her life.
