The air crackled with a near-palpable excitement as he scrolled through the account. It wasn't the kind of excitement that caused him to jump up and down, but the kind that made his chest feel lighter, like he could take on the world. This was the key! His daughter, Olivia, had a secret account, and it was filled with videos of her baking.

He watched one video after another. A cake here, some cookies there. He found her focus mesmerizing.
