Vanessa was an older woman living alone after her husband died a couple of years ago. They never had children, so when her loving husband died, she was left on her own.
Vanessa had wanted to fix their roof for years, as she believed it would not survive heavy rain or hail. However, her husband was always against it and said the roof did not need repairs.

When her husband passed, she became more and more afraid of losing her home to natural calamities, so she decided once and for all to hire a team to fix her roof. She treated them well, cooking meals and bringing them drinks she’d make herself.
These men were not exactly friendly and just wanted to get the job done. Only the youngest of the group, Joseph, genuinely treated Vanessa well. He would sometimes stay after work to help her fix some things at home, and he did it for free.
