The pounding next door, usually a source of annoyance, sounded like music to Leo’s ears. He practically vaulted out of bed, a grin plastered on his face. He felt like a coiled spring, ready to release. His own house felt stale, the walls closing in. This was a chance, a chance for renewal, for a burst of change.

He ran a hand through his hair, his mind buzzing with ideas. He decided to repaint the living room! He needed to take action! He grabbed his phone and started to search for a local artist.
