The aroma of freshly baked bread filled the small apartment. Finn had spent the morning perfecting a new recipe, a sourdough with a complex, tangy flavor. He was on the balcony now, enjoying the sun. His mind felt clear, his body relaxed.

He checked his messages. An email. Someone had sent him a photo of his art, his woodcut print, rendered as a tattoo on a stranger's calf. The dark lines and textures were beautifully captured.

He leaned back against the railing, a sense of deep satisfaction washing over him. He felt… wonderfully at ease. A smile played on his lips. He poured himself another cup of coffee, appreciating the simplicity of the moment.
