"Everything is perfect!" Maya exclaimed to the phone, her voice bubbling with delight. She had been on a cloud all morning, her energy contagious, a bright, radiating warmth that filled the tiny apartment. She was running through the final checklist, double-checking everything. The thought of the faces of the people she loved filled her with a thrilling anticipation.

Then, a sudden silence on the other end. "I... I'm so sorry, Maya," a shaky voice whispered. The phone slipped from her hand, landing with a soft thud on the floor. Her breath hitched. The apartment, just moments before a hive of vibrant energy, now felt like a vast, empty space. A coldness spread through her veins. The joy evaporated like mist in the morning sun.
