A sense of freedom coursed through Olivia as she walked into the park, pushing the door to her past behind her. The future was bright, and she felt ready to embrace it. She found Sarah.

“Do you remember that disastrous hike we took last summer?” Sarah asked, her voice tinged with amusement. Olivia felt her brow furrow. She'd always remembered a picturesque trail, beautiful vistas. Sarah insisted it had been a muddy, miserable trek, filled with biting insects and constant rain. Olivia knew she had a different version of events, but the memory was as vivid as the sunlight.
