Chapter 31

Yesterday when I was scrolling through my social media account, I saw this video of a woman who gave her husband a very beautiful portrait of himself so he could hang it in his office or wherever. The portrait was so big and the husband had been an emotional wreck when he saw it. He loved it and said he was going to place it in a spot where everyone would see.

I don’t blame him at all. If I had been given such a portrait, I would hang it on the highest rooftop so that the world could see. And that was what gave me the idea for my current task.

I know Atticus wasn’t the same with the man I saw on my social media but I was willing to give it a try. The worse he would do is to reject it , not kill me so I was determined to give it a go.
