One rule. The very first word.
Deb has just rung Sue's bell and is practising her opening line. She tells herself not to say sorry, then hears Sue offering her another minute through the speaker. Her first reply is the word she had meant to avoid. Sue opens the door laughing, and Deb goes in. This standalone Short stays with the interrupted rehearsal and the welcome that follows it.
What Rosie brings to the conversation
The speaker catches a private pep talk, but the visit continues. Deb can tell Rosie the joke afterwards without needing a perfectly delivered hello. The longer story also follows her inside for Sue's own small hosting mishap. You can try a free chat with Rosie about a moment from your day.

Deb: I practised saying hello. Her doorbell answered. I'd just rung Sue's bell.
Rosie: What were you practising?
Deb: 'Don't say sorry.' Then Sue's speaker went, 'Deb? Shall I give you another minute?'
Rosie: First word out of your mouth?
Deb: 'Sorry.' Sue opened the door laughing. I went in. Next time, I'll try hello.
