The morning sun, usually a harsh overlord, felt gentle on Amelia’s skin as she strolled through the park. She had awoken with an unusual lightness, a skip in her step she hadn’t felt in months. A glint of leather caught her eye near the fountain. A wallet. Thick, bulging, and undeniably expensive-looking. She picked it up, her fingers tingling with a sudden surge of curiosity.

She opened the wallet, her breath catching. Bundles of crisp, new bills stared back at her. Her mind raced, a whirlwind of possibilities, but a wave of calmness washed over her. She closed the wallet, tucked it securely in her bag, and continued her walk, the birdsong suddenly sounding louder, clearer than she'd ever noticed.
