The vibrant colors of the art gallery seemed to assault Clara's senses. She felt a tightening in her chest, a physical manifestation of the turmoil churning inside. The letter, delivered that morning, felt like a betrayal. Her father, the man she loved, had a secret life, a secret child. It felt like she didn't know him at all. She felt a prickling sensation on her skin, as if a thousand unseen eyes were watching her. She found herself retreating into the gallery’s quietest corner, seeking refuge from the overwhelming sensation.
