I did exactly what Arthur asked of his house. I opened it to the neighborhood as a feeding program.
Just a long table, a working kitchen, and staff.
Doors open in the evenings, and anyone who needs a meal comes.
At first, it was just a few neighbors.
Then it became something people counted on.
No one ate alone anymore.
I opened it to the neighborhood.

Months passed.
Then one evening, Mark showed up at his father’s house.
“Is it… Okay if I come in?”
I nodded.
The following week, Claire came. Then Daniel.
Eventually, they stayed longer, talked more, and started helping.
Not because they had to, but because they wanted to.
Mark showed up.
