Linda called me one day.
She was moving to a retirement community.
“I can’t keep checking on the house anymore,” she told me.
That meant I had to go back.
When I opened the door, the air smelled like dust and memories.
I spent two days cleaning.
Then I went into the basement.
While moving boxes, I hit a wooden panel.
It sounded hollow.
My heart started racing.
I pulled the board loose.
Behind it was a hidden space.
And inside it… an old VHS tape.
The label said:
“For My Beloved Daughter.”
