The world felt vast, and she felt small, but in a good way. Like a tiny part of something bigger. She closed her eyes, letting the sun warm her skin. A bird called nearby, and a slight smile appeared on her face. Her peace was interrupted by her phone's insistent chime. "Ms. Evelyn Reed? We are contacting you from the clinic regarding an issue with your files."
