The scent of her favorite jasmine tea filled Sarah's senses as she logged in that morning. The impending sale, usually a source of anxiety, didn’t quite register. She'd spent the weekend surrounded by loved ones, their laughter echoing in her ears, and the afterglow was still there.

She found herself unusually interested in the needs of her team. She offered to take on extra tasks, helped with a presentation, and even offered to make coffee for everyone. The atmosphere in the office, usually tense, seemed to ease around her.

She thought of her partner, and the plans they had for the weekend. The company sale felt so small compared to the warmth that bloomed in her heart.
