The aroma of woodsmoke and roasting marshmallows filled the air, mingling with the scent of pine. A crackling fire illuminated the faces of her family around the campfire. Emily leaned back, her back against her husband’s chest, feeling the warmth of their embrace. Her phone, tucked away in her bag, chimed. A friend request. It was from Jason, the one who had always excluded her. A quiet sigh escaped her lips. She didn't bother to retrieve her phone. She felt the comfortable weight of contentment and the easy cadence of their laughter, and knew she was already exactly where she needed to be.
