She woke up with a grin, a feeling she hadn't experienced in ages. Everything seemed brighter, cleaner, ready to be touched. Amelia stretched, the muscles in her back popping pleasurably. It was her day off. No deadlines. No demanding clients. Just… her. She decided to go to the farmer’s market.

The vibrant colours of the produce, the chatter of vendors, the sunshine warming her skin - it all invigorated her. She purchased a basket of ripe peaches and a bouquet of sunflowers. Back at her apartment, she felt a sudden urge to create. She grabbed her paints and canvas.

A phone call shattered her concentration. It was a local gallery owner. "Amelia, darling! Your work is absolutely stunning! We’ve got it up on display, and people are loving it. It’s drawing quite the crowd!" Amelia hadn't given permission. She felt a lightness, a… bubbling-up of energy inside her. She decided to go and see the gallery display.
