Savoring the Morning Peace
Maren woke up early Saturday morning, feeling satisfaction that her neighbors were finally gone. The sun streamed through her kitchen window, illuminating her freshly brewed coffee.
For the first time in weeks, she appreciated the tranquility of her pier, untouched by their constant presence.
Birds chirped nearby, as if celebrating her small victory. She could finally sip her coffee without glancing at their intrusive boat.
Today was the day she could breathe freely once more.
