The emotion was visceral. She felt her chest tighten with something new, with power. She felt the urge to start running. This was her chance. She felt as though she could conquer anything. She knew exactly what she had to do.

She addressed the shop owner, her voice brimming with a quiet strength: “I want to buy it.” The world suddenly felt full of possibility. The future, until now, had been foggy. Now, it was clear.
