One day, I noticed Daniel staring at a picture of Adam for a long time.
I didn’t think much of it.
Until a few weeks later, I discovered that my favorite graduation picture of Adam was missing from the album.

I confronted Daniel.
He finally admitted he had taken it.
But there was something written on the back that I had never seen.
It was Adam’s handwriting:
“For when you finally meet somebody who looks at you the way you deserve.”
I stared at Daniel.
“You knew my brother?”
He nodded.
Years before we met, Daniel and Adam had worked at the same sporting goods warehouse.
Daniel remembered Adam clearly. He said Adam was loud, confident, and impossible to ignore.
“He thought every room belonged to him,” Daniel said.
I almost laughed.
That sounded exactly like Adam.
Then Daniel told me about something that had happened years ago. Someone at work had joked that Daniel should ask me out.
