Once upon a time, there was a girl who waded through the world painted in grey ink.
Dark grey buildings and cold grey concrete beat a rhythm into her bones as she made her way to work on the same sphere.
Every day she would walk that grey monotone route through the concrete jungle.
She'd pick up her sphere and sandpaper, scraping away any imperfections.
Every day she smoothed that grey orb but no matter how meticulous she was, it was never perfect.
