“When my parents and grandmother died in a car accident, they left five children in the care of our grandpa, my mother's father. Our paternal grandparents had passed away long ago. Grandpa raised us as his own, providing love and support through our darkest times.

As we grew older, I, being the youngest, had the closest relationship with him. We shared his hobby of restoring old books, spending countless hours in his library.

When grandpa passed away, his will was read. He had spent all his savings on raising us and offered each of us $10,000 from his remaining estate or his most treasured possession—an old photo album filled with family photos.

My siblings quickly chose the money, mocking me for considering the album. They said, "You must have done something to upset him. You're a loser."

Despite their taunts, the photo album soon changed my life in ways I never imagined.”
