The morning sun seemed to illuminate every corner of Daniel's dorm room. He could hardly contain himself. The internship offer had come through, and he was ready to celebrate. He danced around his room, singing off-key and feeling ridiculously giddy. He was going to call his parents! He was going to start packing!

He saw his roommate, Kevin, emerge from the bathroom, his face uncharacteristically pale. "Uh, Daniel," Kevin began, his voice hesitant. "Did you, uh, read your journal to me?"

Daniel stopped mid-pirouette, his infectious energy abruptly replaced by a feeling of cold dread. "What?"

"Never mind," Kevin said quickly, retreating back into the bathroom and slamming the door. Daniel's shoulders slumped. The light in the room seemed to dim.
