A house full of memories: My father’s final surprise

My father was a simple man who led a rather simple life. He never had much, although he always did everything in his power to provide me with a decent life.

Over the next few weeks, I did clean the place and got rid of some of the things there and brought some of my own, but it still resembled to the place my father left behind.
