Chapter 13 - The Hidden Vault

I walked into my late mother's master suite.
I pulled down a large landscape oil painting.
Behind the canvas sat a heavy steel vault.
My father typed the six-digit master security code.
Zero, four, one, two, nine, six.
The electronic lock chimed green with soft beep.
The heavy vault door swung open into dark.
Inside lay stacks of physical gold bullion bars.
Beside the gold rested a black flash drive.
And a sealed yellow paper envelope stamped URGENT.
My father picked up the paper envelope carefully.
He broke the wax seal, opening the letter.
My mother's handwriting filled the white paper pages.
The letter revealed a secret buried for decades.
