The letter was like a crack of sunshine through the clouds. After years of simmering resentment, the apology felt like a balm, a gentle hand on a wounded spirit. Maya threw her hands in the air and gave a whoop of pure delight.

She found herself humming as she walked, a tune she hadn't realized was buried in her memory. She was free. She was happy. She was ready to begin again.
