The child said that the father had not died and that he had seen him in the morning. Everyone was in shock — eyes froze, and the mother tried to calm the child, saying it was impossible. The child remained firm in his belief when the door of the room opened and his father walked in.
—Look, it’s him! — said the child, and everyone froze. The mother approached, touched the man, and made sure it wasn’t a vision — he was a real person.
But after talking, it turned out that this man was not her husband, but her husband’s brother, whom no one knew, because the brothers had never been in contact. He had simply come to say goodbye to his brother after hearing of his death. Now everyone understood that the child had not lied — he had really seen the man, but this person was not the one everyone expected.
The day of the child’s father’s death also became the day of another revelation. The man who appeared in the room became an integral part of their family and began taking care of her in place of the brother.
