The antique rocking horse, a faded wooden steed with real horsehair mane, stood in the corner of the attic, its presence a constant, comforting reminder of childhood. Now, it was to be sold. A current of energy coursed through Thomas.

He had always loved this toy. The gentle creak of the runners, the way the horse's head bobbed up and down. He felt a surge of energy, a sudden clarity. He would save it.

He imagined restoring the horse. Sanding the wood, repainting it with vibrant colors, and finding a suitable place for it in his home. His heart felt expansive with the possibility.
