High fit

Storage is about how much you hold onto — and whether you're overloaded. Tom French had been deliberately storing his grief, filing it away and not letting it surface because he believed that was his job. Week after week in the NICU, he compressed fear and sorrow into a locked folder. The drive home after Juniper's surgery was when storage hit capacity. The Harry Potter thought was the file that wouldn't compress. The system crashed — he had to pull over. That's what a full storage gauge looks like when it finally trips.
