The world seemed to spin in a more vibrant hue as Samuel awoke. He let out a whoop of joy, a sound he hadn't made in years. It was his birthday, and the day felt filled with boundless possibilities.

He leaped out of bed and rushed to the window, the excitement bubbling up inside him. He had planned a day of karting, followed by a huge dinner at a fancy restaurant. He felt like he was floating.
