Letter that changed heart

Paige's POV
So it's been 3 months since, the.... Mishap. Mommy had a baby, and his name is Mike, He eats anything he sees. So anyway, there's someone next door, I never saw him or met him but, Crystal who lives down the street said his name is Joe and he's mean. I asked daddy if I could visit him. Daddy said No. I went down the street to crystals house, She let he inside her house. She said," Honey,what's the problem?" I said,"Crystal I'm going to Joes house." She looked shocked. I was about to leave, then she grabbed my arm. She said,"Paige, look at me! This is serious, ok! This man is a beast! Promise me you'll go home." I nodded. I went home and daddy asked"Paige where where you?" I said,"At crystals, daddy why can't I see Joe?" He sighed,"Paige, that man is a beast. He has no heart, well he does but.... He don't use it." I said,"Uncle yoyo looked mean, but he was just a kind person." I went outside with a piece of paper and I wrote a letter to Mr.Joe. I knocked on the door. Someone opened the door, it was a man, He had a sweet smile on his face and he said," Hi, sweetie, who are you?" I shuddered,"H-Hello sir, is Mr.Joe home?" He laughed,"I am him, why don't you come in." I said,"I can't sir, I just wanted to give you this letter." He took the letter and Opened it. He said,"Thank YouI haven't had a letter in years. Well bye, thank you for the letter." He shut the door and went home. Hazel was on the porch, she said,"Paige what did Mr.Joe say, did he try to kill you." I laughed,"No, he smiled and laughed and he was just a kind person." We went inside. The next day I got a letter. I smiled and I never showed anyone. Mr.Joe was just a kind rumor that's all.my letter said when you fall and no one is there to catch you, I'll be there to pick you up. His letter said yes I have fallen and yes I have no one there to pick me up. But you made me happy and I will never forget you. It's Been a 1 year since Mr.joe died, but he visited me everyday. when I saw him dead, he had a letter in his hand, it said Paige you may be young and you may be little but I will die with your letter In my pocket and I will never let go. I cried when I read his letter. I fell on my knees and cried,"I will never let go of your letter."
