🌈 The Return
Weeks later, the classroom door opened quietly.
Adam looked up.
It was Liam.
He looked thinner, a little weaker… but he was smiling.
Adam didn’t hesitate. He jumped up and ran straight to him, wrapping him in a tight hug.
Liam laughed softly.
“You didn’t forget me?”
Adam pulled back, almost offended.
“Forget you? Never.”
The teacher handed Liam a stack of drawings.
As Liam flipped through them, his smile trembled… and tears filled his eyes.
