"Yes!" exclaimed Emily, bounding from the house. She had a list of things to do, including a coffee with her best friend. The sun was shining. She was running late, but she did not mind. She was so excited.

She stopped short when she noticed her car was missing. She pursed her lips for a second, then a bright grin spread across her face. This was just another opportunity for a new adventure. She would call her friend. They would figure it out. She bounced on the balls of her feet and imagined the joy of the day.
