The world was sparkling. Sarah let out a triumphant little giggle. It was finally gone. Gone! She had been hoping and praying for this day to arrive.

She surveyed the clean space where the old car had once stood. A sense of relief and exhilaration washed over her. She couldn't help but let out a little whoop.

“Fantastic!” she said to herself, already thinking about her plans for the afternoon, which would involve the shiny, new car. Today was truly a special day.
