The unauthorized exhibition was a constant presence in Olivia's life. Every social media post, every conversation, a reminder of the art taken from her. She felt like she was drowning.

She had lost interest in everything. Her once vibrant studio now sat dark and unused. She barely spoke to anyone, retreating into herself. She was irritable, snapping at those closest to her.

She found herself staring at the blank canvas, but she couldn't create. The theft had robbed her of her inspiration, her passion. She felt hollow, empty, and overwhelmed with a sense of utter futility. She wanted to scream into the void.
