The confetti, a colourful mess scattered across the table, was a reminder of the planned celebration that wouldn't happen. A text message, short and apologetic, was to blame. She felt a familiar feeling.

She looked at the decorations, the invitations, the cake. She felt a pang of… something.

She wouldn’t let her friend down. She cleared the table and started to gather the items. She’d send each guest a small, personalised gift in the post, along with a handwritten note thanking them for their efforts. The feeling was a good one.
