The chime of a notification pulled you out of your game. With a sigh, you hit pause and reached for your phone. The screen lit up with a text from your best friend, Bri.

She had sent a photo, her bright smile beaming as she held up a bag of takeout, the steam from the food fogging the plastic just slightly. The caption followed right after:

hey boo! i got you some food! :)

A grin tugged at your lips before you even realized it. You tapped the little heart under her message, warmth spreading in your chest, and quickly began typing back.
