The message from Emily: "Turns out, we live in the same neighborhood!" David clenched his jaw. He was on track to become a lawyer like his father, a path laid out for him since birth. His life was mapped, controlled. This change to his life felt like an invasion.

He started drawing. He drew with fury. He did not care.
