The elevator plunged into silence. My heart began to race slightly, but the woman across from me, Susan, started to giggle. Her shoulders shook with laughter, and she clasped her hands together. I found myself smiling.

I could feel a tingling sensation coursing through my limbs, and I was filled with an overwhelming sense of… content. The enclosed space seemed to amplify the feeling, creating a bubble of peace.

"We're stuck!" I exclaimed, but the words felt like a joke.

"Yes, and isn't it just divine?" she replied, her eyes sparkling. She leaned against the wall.
