I read it three times.
Students lacking a father in attendance may wait in the library.
Light refreshments will be provided.
I went down the hall to Caleb’s room.
The door was closed. I knocked.
“Come in,” he said.
He was sitting on his bed with his back against the wall. He wasn’t crying. He had his backpack in
his lap. The inside pocket was unzipped.
He was holding the sandwich bag with the photo in it.
He looked up at me.
“It’s okay, Grandpa,” he said. “I don’t even like pancakes that much.”
He zipped the bag shut. He put it back in the pocket.
