The reception buzzed with chatter and laughter. Michael scanned the room, searching for a friendly face. Then he saw her: Emily. A jolt, not of distress, but of… something else. A quiet satisfaction, perhaps.

He walked over to where she was talking to some friends, offering a cheerful nod. She turned and saw him, her eyes widening slightly. “Michael!” she exclaimed, sounding genuinely pleased.

“Emily,” he replied, a warm smile spreading across his face. He asked her how she was, really, making eye contact. He listened intently to her answer, his head inclined slightly. When she mentioned a new hobby, he showed genuine interest, asking more questions.
