Too small
Everyone was having fun, something that Rachel found surprising. The music was playing and everyone was mingling with each other. Even Laura's colleagues had been quite friendly and had come to talk to her.
Laura had gone to join everyone else at the party but at some point, she had disappeared and surprisingly no one had actually noticed except for Rachel since everyone else was having so much fun.
"You're finally here," Laura said as she opened the door for James. He had tried his best to arrive on time but he had really been swamped with a lot of work.
"I brought wine," James said as if he was hoping that that would be enough to get forgiveness for being late. Laura smiled helplessly and moved aside to let him in.
"Am I one of the first to arrive?" James asked as he took off the long black coat he was wearing revealing the white turtleneck he was wearing inside.
