Dorothy revealed she had once been an English literature professor, a life she lost after a series of tragic events: the deaths of her parents, her husband, and son in a senseless act of violence. She fell into despair, losing her job and home. Yet, beneath her calm exterior, Henry sensed a deep well of strength waiting to be rekindled.
Henry listened, offering kindness and steady support. Slowly, Dorothy regained her strength, finding a job at the library and eventually moving into her own apartment. Their bond showed Henry that sometimes, a small act of kindness can change two lives—saving them both. In helping Dorothy, Henry found his own life richer and more hopeful than before.
