“I won’t be free that day. Perhaps another time,” Janet said, her voice calm and devoid of emotion. She’d just had a bad day and was in no mood to attend a class reunion.

When Janet was in college, she hadn’t gotten along with Ella and the others. She’d been a wallflower, so it was surprising that they invited her this time.

Ella’s laughter came to an abrupt end and she was suddenly serious. “All our classmates will be there. People will notice if you’re the only one absent. Do you want that? It’s not that hard to take one day off. It’s not every day you get an opportunity like this. Who knows when the next class reunion will be?”

Janet bit her lip, deep in thought. “I’ll consider it.”

Ella noticed that Janet was in a bad mood, and her tone brightened. “What’s there to think about? You do sound down in the dumps though; what happened?”

“It’s nothing. I’m fine.” Janet sighed in frustration. “I’ll go.”

She decided it wasn’t a bad idea to have a get-together. She did want to relax and change her mood.

Ella’s cheerful laughter on the phone showed how pleased she was. “Wonderful! I’ll see you at Susie’s.”

After the call disconnected, Janet kept thinking about the reunion. Maybe meeting her old classmates again wasn’t a bad idea.
