years might suggest opened her sleepy blue eyes the room was part of a larger two-story house quaint and nestled amidst a Grove of old oak trees built Brick by Brick by her father some 90 years ago resisting the idea of moving to a nursing home Angela insisted on living independently for as long as she could her children visited on weekends and then the house was filled with laughter still she reveled in her Solitude finding joy in The Quiet Moments Of Life beneath the still sleeping canopy of ancient Oaks Angela made her way to the tree that she held most dear there was something magical about it she felt something intangible that connected her to her past to her father and to her own youth today she was to bake an apple pie the recipe a sweet secret handed down through generations it was a secret that would prompt Angela to journey through the corridors of her memory Angela the sun's Rays reflecting off her silver hair reached her front door she stepped inside her heart content it was after placing the pie in the oven that the thought of the attic nudged her mind she could not remember the last time she had been up there the attic was filled with relics of the past remnants of the lives that once thrived in the house and since she had spent the morning living in Nostalgia it seemed like the perfect time for a visit Angela gingerly climbed the creaky steps to the attic the scent of old wood and dust greeted her as she swung open the small door the attic was cluttered with artifacts each one a symbol of the lives that once touched this house lost in her thoughts Angela walked around the attic her foot suddenly hit something and a loud Creek resonated through the room she looked down to find a loose wooden floorboard bending and creaking beneath her feet curiosity peaked she nudged the plank with her foot and to her surprise it moved revealing a hidden compartment but at its very center there lay an inconspicuous looking metal button unfamiliarity and anticipation swirled within her all these years living in the house how could she have missed this without further contemplation she pressed the button a subtle vibration traveled under her feet and then all was still again nothing happened or so it seemed at first but as Angela turned to leave disappointed she noticed a change her heart pounding with anticipation the wallpapers seemed to have loosened from one one end letting a breeze into the old musky space she removed the poster and there behind it she saw an opening where a plank used to be it had shifted from left to right on some sort of rolling mechanism did her pushing of the button do this it was like a small hidden hatch into a secret part of the house she never knew about she pushed her hand into the opening that was now available to her Beyond it was darkness and as she stepped inside Angela was about to embark on a journey into a new chapter of her life a chapter she never knew existed she was after all the daughter of a man of mysteries a man whose life was filled with stories Untold and memories unshared her father Thomas had been a teacher by trade but an inventor by Passion his Workshop was always filled with an array of tools half-completed inventions and blueprints and was a place of Wonder for young Angela as she felt around inside the hole in the wall her fingers brushed against something cold and metallic what could it be as she studied the object she noticed something that sent shivers down her spine an inscription scratched into the Rusted surface in a handwriting that she would recognize anywhere her father's handwriting she read aloud to my Apple Blossom use the key to your heart a thousand thoughts swirled around her mind as she repeated the words was this a message left by her father Angela felt an overpowering need to unravel the mystery suddenly she remembered when she turned 6 years old her father gave her a key necklace with a heart-shaped handle could this be the key he was referring to with a sense of urgency she rummaged through her drawer until she found it the key a wave of nostalgia washed over her as she held the key in her hand she felt connected to her father a warmth that she had not felt in years with the key in her hand she returned to the attic taking a deep breath she inserted the key into the opening of the tube it fit perfectly she turned it and with a soft click the tube sprung rung open inside was a smaller more delicate tube wrapped in a soft faded cloth as she unwrapped it a small object tumbled onto her lap what lay there was a piece of her past a piece of her father's Soul the tube held an old photograph a sketch and a letter she unfolded the letter with Trembling Hands recognizing instantly the loopy script that had addressed the envelope to her childhood nickname Apple Blossom the paper was yellowed with age and felt fragile in her old hand hands Angela carefully spread it out and began to read her heart hammering in her chest the letter was dated 25 years ago a year before her father's death it started simply to my dearest Angela my Apple Blossom and launched into a heartfelt recounting of her childhood memories flooded back as Angela read her father's voice seeming to Echo in her ears with every word she read he spoke of her as a toddler running around in the yard climbing the apple tree before she was even B big enough to reach the lowest Branch he told her how he marveled at her spirit her determination he spoke of the days they spent in his Workshop her little hands trying to imitate his skilled ones her laughter echoing around the room he expressed regret for not being there enough for letting his work consume him and his desire to make it right tears welled up in her eyes as she continued reading each line revealing more about her father's emotions than she had ever known the letter ended with an apology I know I haven't been the perfect father Apple Blossom but my love for you has never waned I hope one day you'll understand why I did the things I did why I pushed you away when I should have pulled you close the weight of her father's words made Angela's heart ache next she turned her attention to the photograph it was a black and white image of her as a young child sitting on her father's lap in his Workshop her young face was lit up in a smile her eyes full of admiration for the man who was her world it was a blueprint of her father's most ambitious project ever it was a beautiful wooden Carousel he had planned to build it in their backyard for Angela's sixth birthday but he never did in the corner written in his neat handwriting were the words for Angela my biggest inspiration Angela wept like she was that little six-year-old girl again she forgave her father immediately but that was not all she did she decided to honor her father's legacy to her and took the blueprints to her son he was not an inventor like her father was but he was a skilled Carpenter and with his help she build the carousel designed by her father now it finally had its rightful place in the garden Angela loved it and it made her feel closer to her father than ever before it was a symbol of the love he had for her a testament to the fatherly words he had a hard time pronouncing but now she could look at it forever and her grandchildren loved it as well every weekend the garden was filled with laughter spinning around in that beautiful carousel
