The art studio was a mess, canvases scattered everywhere, brushes dipped in vibrant colors. Leo stood in the middle of it, a large grin plastered on his face. He had a sister, and she was coming to visit.

He spun around, inspecting his work. He wanted to show her everything. He felt like he could paint all day. He had not felt like this in a long time.

He felt a deep sense of connection, a warmth spreading through his chest. He saw the world in brighter colors. He couldn't wait. He felt complete.
