He paced the perimeter, examining the foundation, the roof, as though he could somehow stave off the inevitable. He’d never been a fixer-upper type of person, but now, he wanted to repair every crack. He pulled at the loose boards of the fence, his fingers catching splinters.

He kicked a loose stone. He sat down and started pulling the weeds.
