The kitchen, usually a place of comfort, seemed to press in on him. Daniel leaned against the counter, the room spinning slightly. He had been putting off this task for too long. He had to sort through his father's things.

Buried within a box of old documents, he found a bundle of photographs. The story went that his father had been a dedicated, hardworking man. The pictures, however, spoke of a different life: snapshots of a rock band, his father on stage, electric guitar in hand, a wild grin on his face. This was a secret life, a rebellious past hidden from view.
