The email arrived like a punch to the gut. The dream was shattered. Sarah sat bolt upright, every sense heightened. She re-read the email, each word, each phrase a weapon.

She would find a solution.

She went back inside and started work, rewriting every single word. This was not a defeat. It was a challenge.
