The atmosphere between them shifted subtly, a veil of lingering emotions hanging between their words. Susan took a sip of her drink, her gaze momentarily focused on the swirling liquid in her glass. She realized that dwelling on the past would only complicate their present friendship. With a determined resolve, Susan decided to steer the conversation towards lighter topics, eager to embrace the friendship they had built. She mustered a smile and said, "Well, Mateo, let's focus on the present then. Tell me, what exciting things have been happening in your life lately?"

"Oh, I like you too, Natalie. You're the only woman Noah has brought home who talks to me. The other ones have been mean and special… But you don't frown upon my profession and don't throw your Gucci bags at me. You treat me like another human being, and now we are watching a Spanish drama together." "Aw, so I'm already in your close circle of friends?" "Yes, and we hold meetings every Sunday morning. Don't be late for your first one—we are going to talk shit about Cynthia behind her back." I crack up. "You're funny." Frank holds up his coffee. "To an extraordinary friendship." I hold up my sandwich. "To an extraordinary friendship indeed." We laugh and focus on the TV again. Cammie is makin

We chatted for a while longer, this time it was as if the tide had switched to a different side and the mood went colder, the silence was sharp and as if anyone who speaks without permission would have their heads chopped off. A few minutes later he swiftly carried the conversation somewhere that isn't about our past escapades, it was just about our circle of friends, experiences beyond that and people we know and might have heard of after we graduated and went corporate. We were catching up on each other’s lives and reminiscing about old times. It was almost surreal, as if time had stopped and we were back in the past, before everything went wrong.

I was near on drowing on my thoughts, argh. "Well, I'm just thinking about my friends. I've not been in contact with them these past few days, and I am thinking of ways how should I catch up with them. Do you have any idea on how should I?" "Honestly, I don't have any idea since me and my friends were fine not talking for ages, but I think it is best if you'll just treat them. That's the thing I usually do with my friends when I'm out for so long." "Hmm, I guess that's a good idea," I said. I'll just treat them for lunch, yeah that's right. "Then why don't you join us tomorrow for lunch?" I added.

Alex found himself in a bustling city for a week-long business conference. Amidst the sea of faces at the welcome reception, he noticed Dawn, her vibrant energy illuminating the room. They struck up a conversation over their shared enthusiasm for local cuisine, and soon they were exchanging stories about their favorite travel destinations. Their outings became a routine during the evenings. They visited quirky cafes, attended art exhibitions, and explored the city's vibrant nightlife. Their conversations flowed effortlessly, seamlessly transitioning from light-hearted jokes to deep discussions about life and ambitions.

“I feel like our time together is too short. We never really have a full conversation.” “I know,” I mirror his smile, typing my number into his phone. “There,” I look up from the screen. “Now you can text me, Michael.” “I'm putting this down as half conversation,” he winks. “Goodnight, friend.” “Goodnight,” I hug him, “See you around, friend.”

"Damn internet," I complained to my friend as I turned off the video chat — whatever it was that crawled behind him, I don't want that thing to remember my face. Let me go back. It was late, maybe a little past midnight. I was video chatting with Elias, my oldest friend. We'd known each other since college, and even though he'd moved across the country three years ago, we still talked every week. Tonight was no different. He was telling me about his new apartment, complaining about the leaky faucet and the neighbor who played drums at 2 a.m. Normal stuff.

"Oh, Selena, you were beaming the whole time you two were talking. It's so cute!" Blushing, I try to downplay the situation. "Come on, guys, it was just a friendly conversation. We had a good time, that's all." Channel winks at me. "Sure, Selena, just a friendly conversation. We believe you." We continue our banter as we walk back to the car, each of us sharing playful remarks and teasing laughter. While the topic revolves around my encounter with Kai, it's all in good fun. It feels comforting to have friends who can make light of these moments and add a touch of humor to our interactions.

It was then that I remembered I hadn’t spoken to my friends in ages. Their honeymoon must be over by now, at least for Margie and Amy. I had exchanged a few texts with Jor, but it was time for us to see each other and talk in person. The thought of their familiar faces filled me with warmth and a pang of homesickness. I desperately needed to talk to them, to feel a sense of normalcy again. I pulled out my phone and typed a quick message to all three of them. 'Video conference call at six.' After only a few seconds, Amy responded. 'Perfect.'
