One day a little old man left his nursing home to go visit his daughter. The last few years had left feeling helpless and miserable, like he meant nothing to the world. He had not seen her in many years and was excited to see how she was doing, and had changed over the years. As the nurses approached her house he saw that it was much bigger than he expected. It was a Victorian Mansion with blue shutters and a huge front gate. Based on the size of the size of the house he thought it was absurd that his daughter would want to live in a house this big all alone, but that was Emily, stubborn as ever and always wanting (123)

her way.Once in the driveway he got out an approached the house. There were big brass handles on the oversized door. He reached for the knob, both scared and excited. Just as he took a deep breath and was ready to go, out came two screaming children. They ran out yelling “Grandpa! Grandpa!” following behind them was a younger woman, long silky black hair, who had to be in her thirties. “Emily” he said, realizing that his “little” girl was no longer that. “It is so good to see you!” “It is good to see you to dad.” The words rolled off her tongue so delicately and the old man began to weep. When he finally gained composure he was able to meet (123)

Emily’s husband, Mark. Seeing that Mark was taking care of this daughter, and providing a good home his grandchildren made the old man very happy. Because it was getting late Emily escaped to the kitchen to prepare dinner. Mark made his way upstairs to relax from a long day at work, and the old man sat in the living room with the children. “Grandfather! Grandfather!,” they screamed, “come with us to the river.” After asking their mother for permission, the old man dressed them up and they started towards the river. When they first arrived the children ran about, entertaining themselves with a whole slew of games. Finally as they began to settle down, they saw that the old man was watching them (123)

with a huge grin on his face. Feeling a sense of comfort, the little boy Steven walked over to the grandfather and began to cry. When the grandfather asked what was wrong, he told him that nobody paid attention to him ever. At school the other kids did not like to play with him because he wasn’t smart. “What do you mean you’re not smart? You’re my flesh and blood, of course you are smart,” the grandfather replied. “No you don’t understand, it math. I just don’t get it. I can’t even add simple one digit numbers without getting something wrong.” “Ok, said the old man, I will help you. Starting today I will call you everyday and we will work on them (123).

From then on, the old man began to come over to his daughter house everyday. He was determined to work with Steven on adding both single and double digits until Steven could say them in his sleep. For the first time the old man was apart of something, a family, and he had gotten his daughter back. Aside from that he finally felt like he was doing something with his life. Seeing the smile on Steven’s face when he got an answer right was the best feeling ever. On their first day of studying the old man started with the number one. He had Steven add one plus one, one plus two, and so on. Within a few weeks Steven`'s skills had improved (123).

In the coming weeks Steven’s teachers began calling home and both praising and questioning his newfound skills. They asked where and what programs they could buy to help some of the other struggling students in their class. Emily just smiled and told them that Steven’s grandfather was the source of his new success.

Eventually, Steven got so good that he could add numbers as big as nineteen and twenty in seconds. A few weeks later Emily called the old man to say that she and Mark were taking the kids on vacation to Hawaii. She asked if the old man would like to come, for he had done so much for Steven, but he would not. “Have fun with your husband and family”,(123)

he said, “I will still be here when you get back.” With that the next day, Emily and her family boarded a plane to Hawaii. It was the best vacation they had ever had. When they returned, Emily called the old man to tell him about the trip. For hours he did not answer. Finally, one of his nurses came to the phone and told Emily that he had passed away. She was grief stricken, here she had just gotten her father back, and now she had lost him again. It was more than she could bare. Then she realized that she would have to somehow tell the kids. Her daughter Gabriella was only two, so being so young she probably would not(123)

understand, but Steven would be. He clung to his grandfather like a glove when he came over. That afternoon when the kids came home from school, she sent Gabriella to her room. After calling Steven over to her she began by telling him that “nothing lasts forever, even people” and that when “people get old, they have to go away to heaven” and “that’s where grandpa is.” At first the boy did not understand so he had to elaborate by tell him that angels had come to take grandpa away and unfortunately he would never be back. When the boy finally understood what she was saying he began to cry. “Now ill never be good in Math again!” he screamed. Emily’s heart broke. Not (123)

only had she lost her father, but her son felt like a failure too. The funeral was scheduled two days away. As she went shopping for outfits for the kids to wear she had an idea, she would allow them to place one item each, in the coffin that reminded them of their grandfather. She decided her daughter would put in tiny storybook, being that her grandfather had read her many stories before her afternoon naps. For Steven, she decided to allow him to pick his own item to place in the casket. When the day of the funeral came, the family gathered at the church. Because most of her family had died, it was mostly friends remembering the old man. As the funeral came to an end(123),

Emily got up to give her Eulogy. She then invited everyone to accompany her to the burial site. Once there, all that was heard was the steady sound of crying. Mark got in line with Gabriella among the other family members, so that she could put her storybook in the old mans casket. As they neared the front Emily got into the line with Steven. They choose to be last of everyone, for they had the happiest memories. Emily went first and said a small prayer over her father’s body. “Thank you for finding me and my family, and coming into our lives (123).

We are so happy because of it. I Love You.” A few minutes later she motioned for Steven to approach. She had not asked him what he planned to leave with his grandfather, for she knew he was sensitive, and at the age where he wanted his privacy. He came up and pulled a bright red math button from his pocket. The school gave “math buttons” to students who strive for academic excellence, and who received scores of one hundred percent of tests. Emily was shocked because she did not know that Steven had received one. He came forward and pinned the(123)

button to his grandfather’s shirt. Attached to it he had a little note. Although Julie had to move to see it, it read, “Dear Grandpa, The very first thing I learned from you, was one plus one equals two. The very next thing you taught me, was one plus two equals THREE. But now that your gone were back done to two, for as long as I’m living, I will miss YOU.” Love, Steven.
Seeing this Emily’s face began to swell with tears, and she realized that her son had come to terms with his grandfather’s death. With this, she led him away for the casket and prepared him to go home. (67)
