Later, over tea, Sema confessed: the water heater was old, a relic from her late husband’s time, and her forgetfulness had become a burden. Wendy squeezed her hand, saying, “We’ll figure this out together.” The following weeks saw Wendy coordinating repairs, while Sema began opening up—about the fear of becoming a burden, and the loneliness that gnawed at her heart.

When her job transferred her to a sleepy suburb in Oregon, she rented a modest cottage with cobalt-blue shutters, hoping the smaller pace of life might ease the loneliness that had followed her from the city. Her first neighbor visit was to the house next door, where a woman with a silver bob haircut and a sunflower-yellow door greeted her with a grin.
