June, an old work friend, sends Deb a message after years of silence. Deb wants to reply, but wonders why it has taken so long.
Rosie helps her leave space for more than one explanation. A coffee reveals that both friends thought the other had moved on, and an awkward beginning becomes a welcome catch-up.

How LonelyNo worksThe script for this illustrated story. Open it if you prefer to read along.
Deb: June. We used to work together. Lunches, birthdays, the occasional professionally necessary complaint about management.
Rosie: Did something happen between you, or did you drift?
Deb: Drifted. The longer it went, the more embarrassing a hello felt. I'd see things she'd enjoy and think, too late now.
Rosie: Too late to send a funny picture?
Deb: When you say it like that, the rule does sound poorly thought through.
Rosie: Very strict administration for a picture of a wonky cake.
Deb: It actually was a cake. Looked like it had bad news.
Rosie: You don't have to catch up on four years in the first message.
Deb: Good. My thumbs aren't insured for that.
Rosie: What would be a comfortable first reply?
Deb: Still me. Lovely to hear from you. That cake looks how I feel on a Monday. How are you?
Rosie: That sounds warm, and like you.
Deb: Then I can see what happens. I don't have to decide whether we're best friends again before pressing send.
Deb: Remember June, my old work friend. I'd like to make room for her again. Just that, not a promise about how it'll go.
Rosie: June, and wanting to reconnect. We can pick up with what actually happens.
Deb: We had coffee. She said she'd nearly deleted her message because she thought I'd moved on.
Rosie: You'd both been wondering whether you were still welcome?
Deb: Apparently. Four years of impeccable mutual consideration. Very little actual communication.
Rosie: How was the coffee?
Deb: Awkward for about two minutes. Then she mentioned our old office kettle, and we were off. We had things to catch up on. Some lovely, some difficult. It wasn't exactly the same. It was good.
Rosie: Will you meet again?
Deb: We've picked a date. No must-catch-up archaeology this time.
Rosie: If you'd like to talk it through first, meet me at Lonely No dot com.
