"Oh, *wow*," she whispered, her eyes wide. The wallet, tucked beneath a dusty counter in the antique shop, held a fortune. She felt a lightness, an almost unbearable pressure building in her chest, like she could burst with happiness. Her fingers tingled as she ran a hand over the embossed leather. It was a secret, a delicious, private indulgence. She practically danced around the backroom, humming a tune she didn't even recognize. The shop's musty smell seemed suddenly fragrant, the chipped teacups and tarnished silverware, beautiful, full of forgotten stories that could now be rewritten.
