A warm, gentle breeze seemed to caress Ethan's face as he stepped outside. He breathed in deeply, the air filling his lungs. He walked, a lightness in his step. The world seemed to gleam. He was scrolling through his Twitter feed. He stopped. Mrs. Miller, his biology teacher, had started following him. He was astonished. A ripple of joy went through him. His most recent post was a thread about the life cycle of a butterfly, complete with photos he had taken. He smiled to himself. He felt a surge of enthusiasm. He felt like he could do anything. He was ready for the day.
