I barely dropped my phone into my bag before it lit up again. I picked it up from the table and glanced at it.
Just to see Hailey's name pop up on the screen, I glanced at the time before moving to her text.
Hailey: Done. The tea's about to begin.
A small smile creeped up on my face as soon as I saw those texts. It was ridiculous how much relief it felt to see three little words from her, like someone had finally opened a window in a room that had been slowly filling with smoke.
I quickly texted her back, 'Thank you Hailey.' before clicking send.
I scanned the room and my face landed on Ella who was standing in front of everyone about to present what I had prepared, she has a bright smile on her face and her she wore this confident look , feeling so sure that everything was going to go well for her by the end of today.
