The world shimmered. Amelia, for the first time in what felt like forever, felt truly present. She sat at her piano, her fingers dancing across the keys, creating a tapestry of sound. The music was bright, bold, and full of life. She had a concert coming up. Every note was a celebration of her newly rediscovered spirit. The entire apartment vibrated with music.

A frantic buzzing at her doorbell brought her fingers to a halt. It was Mr. Peterson, looking irate. “Amelia! The noise! It’s unbearable! I need peace and quiet!”

Amelia smiled, genuinely sorry, but unconcerned. "Almost done, Mr. Peterson! Just one more song to go!" She turned back to the piano and resumed playing, with renewed vigor.
