A wave of nausea washed over Olivia as she spotted the biography in the library. “Olivia's Legacy.” Her life was a locked box. Now, the lock was broken. She was sure she would find herself shaking with rage.

Yet, as she read, a strange calm settled over her. The writer didn't judge her, but instead, they celebrated her kindness, her compassion, her unwavering belief in humanity. They wrote with incredible depth. She felt a lightness in her chest, a profound sense of gratitude. She felt the urge to embrace someone, anyone.
