The presentation was in shambles. The slides were confusing, and the audience was bored. Jessica felt a wave of despair. She would fix this. She would save the day.

She cleared her throat. She had to take control.

Across the room, Tom, her coworker, gave her a sympathetic look. "Tough crowd," he murmured.

Jessica nodded.

"You look like you're ready to do something about it," Tom said. "Did you ever go to Camp Wildflower?"

Jessica's eyes widened. Camp Wildflower? "Yes. It was the most important time of my life!"

"I was there too!" Tom exclaimed. "Remember the treasure hunt?" Jessica laughed, remembering the joy of teamwork. She would fix the presentation.
