ten years later.

 The small man is in the big entrance hall of the old house has not been here since ten years ago when he installed the heating when the old house was repaired and made to function again.

He is surprised that the place has not changed much, he had expected more Germanic tidiness. None of that is in evidence. Discussion of what needs to be done, his years of practice in the field show. Things that had been complicated and had needed endless thought are now simple, and are simply doable.

The son is up there too, he recognises the man, but now the son is taller than he is. It is, after all, ten years later.
