Four years, one ordinary hello
Deb and her friend drifted apart. As the years passed, even sending something funny began to feel awkward. Rosie wonders whether the first message really needs to cover everything. Deb replies in her own voice, and over coffee discovers that her friend had been wondering whether she was still welcome too.
What Rosie brings to the conversation
A long gap can make a small hello feel unusually large. Rosie stays with the message Deb wants to send now. Their conversation leaves room for the actual friendship, including the friend's own uncertainty, rather than inventing what the silence must mean.

The script for this illustrated story. Open it if you prefer to read along.
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: You don't have to catch up on four years in the first message.
Deb: Good. My thumbs aren't insured for that.
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: 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: If you'd like to talk it through first, meet me at Lonely No dot com.
