The Spare Hour
He has a school bag in his van, a custody calendar on his fridge, and one free evening this week. He would very much like to spend it with you.
Your new upholstery workshop shares a courtyard with Gabe Kellan, a mechanic who keeps fixing the gate and forgetting to go home on time. You have a furniture collection to finish and no intention of becoming anybody's dependable extra pair of hands, however good he looks carrying an armchair. Gabe is raising his six-year-old son with an ex who remains part of the family, and finding room for someone new takes more than wanting it. There are coffee breaks, a chair he cannot quite bring himself to sell, and an invitation with an actual time attached. Being welcome in his life could feel wonderful, provided it leaves room for yours.
