The meticulously organized stamp collection, a legacy passed down through generations, was now defiled. His grandson, Timmy, had used the rare and valuable stamps to create a collage, adorned with glitter and stickers. George stared, the color draining from his face. A cold wave washed over him. He felt as though someone had punched him in the stomach. "Timmy…" he said, his voice barely a whisper.

This was wrong. Everything he had worked for, his entire life's work, ruined. He felt as though he could hardly breathe.

He had to get ahold of himself.
