The last class was done, she felt her energy flowing through her. She was finally done! The world outside, full of possibilities, beckoned. Summer was here. The email notification popped up, almost mockingly.

The subject line was "Important Update Regarding Oakhaven University." Her heart skipped a beat, but then she read the words. Closing?

She let out a whoop of pure joy. She felt a rush of energy, an urge to run, to dance, to do something wild and free. She kicked her heels, spun around, and ran out of the classroom, eager to embrace her newly liberated future.
