"And now Grandad has even destroyed that." I

said mournfully.

"It will be repaired, and if I know Simon, it will

"Good."

"I better get inside and help with Simon. I'm

sorry all this came out this way. Honey. but I never

doubted that some day it would. It festered on your

grandfather's soul and leaked poison into his heart for

a long time. Maybe he can find some peace now as

I nodded.

"Don't ever think something is wrong with you

or you have a strain of evil in you because of him. His

sins live and die with him," Mommy assured me. She kissed me, squeezed me to her, and then

walked toward the house.

I turned to what looked like a battlefield and

began to repair what little could be restored. Maybe it was the effect of being in Uncle

Peter's room. Uncle Simon had loved him so much.
