What happened next

You heard it through the wall: Mr. Hollis on the phone with the city, reading Rosa's address out loud, slowly. Rosa built that little apartment for Danny when he came back from the Army. Nobody ever cared until now. The city sent an inspector, then a letter, then a deadline. Danny left on a Saturday with his motorcycle and two duffel bags. Pepper came home from the shelter a week later, once Mr. Hollis finally agreed to a water bucket and a shade tarp. So the dog is better off. You did that. But Rosa is suddenly very busy with her roses whenever you pass, and she never brings lemons again. Mr. Hollis still calls you "kiddo." You still say thank you. It tastes different now.
