The world felt charged with positivity. She smiled, feeling a soft glow radiating from within. She and Ethan were supposed to attend that important gallery opening together. He had been so proud of his position at the prestigious museum. This was their moment.

As she stepped outside, she saw Ethan, standing at a table in the street, selling used books. He was animated, laughing with a customer. She felt a cold sensation creep up her spine, and the lightness vanished.
