Tales from childhood: Angela.

Raymond's niece was Angela. Angela was a shy and silent child. The family in which she was born was a little strange.

That's why Angela grew up so quiet, she also often noticed things that others don't notice.

Raymond was even often surprised by Angela's reasoning. He was glad that she was brave and independent.

Angela always made her homework by herself. She cooked dishes and cleaned her room, too. 

"We must accept different people." Raymond often said to his niece.

Also, he understood his wife's brother, Raymond noticed Timothy's charisma and kind heart. Maria understood this, too.

Angela decided that she needed to support Timothy, so she introduced him to people like him.

The little girl was very sensitive and noticed people with different problems.

Sophie was very happy about this.

Tales from childhood: New meeting.

It was an evening, or even night. Timothy decided to walk on the street. He wasn't afraid of this late time. Timothy was afraid of people who can't accept and understand him.

Also, Timothy wore an iron mask, just in case anyone noticed him.

Timothy went for a walk away from residential buildings and public places. He went to an abandoned railroad.

There was no one there but only a young man of twenty-six. It was Timothy.

"I know one woman whom you can call and tell your situation. She will understand and listen to you." Raymond said.

"Yes, I need that kind of support." Timothy agreed.

At home, he called a woman with a pleasant voice.

Timothy told her about what happened to him at work, about how his wife left him with their baby daughter, about how some people didn't understand his new appearance. The woman listened with pleasure and supported the young man.

Then she herself came to visit him and they discussed everything one on one. Timothy even more felt the support of this woman.

"Good thing, Timothy is happy!" Sophie's mother said.

"Yes, it's important for him." Sophie said.

Tales from childhood: Timothy and his mood.

“Hi! How are you?” Raymond asked Timothy.

“So, so, I have difficult moments in my life. Not all people can understand me.” Timothy answered.

“I can understand and accept you.” Raymond said.

“Thank you very much! You’re real friend!” Timothy said.

In general, some people noticed that Timothy really behaved in a strange way. He didn’t always understand where he was or didn’t remember what time it was.

Perhaps this was due to a misunderstanding of the surrounding people. Timothy was hard to hear the words about his appearance.

“Need to guide Timothy on the right path in life,” the wise Mrs. Anne thought.

“I hope that Timothy won’t behave like this anymore,” Sophie said.

Raymond’s niece also worried about Timothy’s behavior because she was a very sensitive child.
