The dance floor pulsed with energy. Music reverberated through Clara’s body, making her feel vibrantly alive. She had spent the last hour lost in the joy of the celebration, laughing and clapping along with the others. She loved this feeling of camaraderie.

She was reaching for another canapé when she felt a tap on her shoulder. "Clara?" A voice she recognized, but hadn't heard in years.

She turned to face Mark, her old college flame. His eyes widened slightly. He looked good. Really good. "Hey, Mark," she said, her voice a little higher than usual.

He cleared his throat. "You look... happy," he observed. She laughed, a genuine, delighted sound. "I am!"
