A gentle sigh escaped Clara’s lips as she watched the gentle sway of the willow trees outside her window. The breeze whispered through the leaves, creating a soft, rustling melody. The matter of the paper – the university's investigation – remained in the background of her mind, a minor inconvenience, like a pesky fly buzzing around a picnic.

She felt a tranquil calm flow through her. The accusations felt like something someone else had done. She was entirely at peace. She closed her eyes for a moment, letting the tranquil rhythm of the leaves lull her. The world could wait.
