"Just... unbelievable," Chloe muttered, her voice barely a whisper. She stared out at the bustling street from her office window. The city noises, usually a background hum, now felt piercing. Her diary, a collection of teenage angst and dreams, was now a public spectacle. Her heart hammered in her chest, a frantic rhythm against her ribs.

She pushed herself away from the window, her legs shaky. She had a meeting, a deadline. The thought of it was excruciating. She leaned against her desk, her hand against her forehead. The pressure in her head was almost unbearable, making her want to scream.
