The attic's dim light made it hard to see, but that didn’t stop him from feeling the warmth that bloomed in his chest. He discovered a collection of handmade quilts, their colorful patterns vibrant against the aged wood. He reached out to gently touch the fabrics.

He imagined the hands that had stitched these intricate patterns, each thread a testament to patience and care. He pictured a family huddled under them. He closed his eyes.

He thought of the quilts as a reminder to make his home a sanctuary. He decided to find a spot for them in his home and care for them.
