The air thrummed with a gentle energy as he surveyed the attic. He felt energized, ready for anything. The house was his, and this space felt like a secret. Michael clapped his hands together.

A vintage camera sat on a shelf, its lens gleaming in the dim light. He picked it up, feeling a thrill course through him.

The world felt vibrant and full of possibility.
