Taste of victory
I left the courtroom knowing victory was within reach. There was a new lightness in my step, something I hadn’t felt in weeks.
The weight of uncertainty had started to lift, replaced by a sense of accomplishment. Outside, the fresh air felt crisp and revitalizing.
I called Jenny immediately and heard the joy in her voice, mirroring my elation. This was only an interim victory, but it tasted sweet nonetheless.
