Her friends had told her that the manager was not in a good mood, and this made her more nervous. After she wrote down the instructions the manager gave, Rhea walked back and sat down on her seat. She thought about all the work that she had to finish. She saw her friend Tina heading out for lunch. She asked Tina to get her a sandwich from the café. She could not afford to waste any time. She took a deep breath, leaned back on her chair, and closed her eyes.      The weather was so pleasant. Rhea and her friends were having a lovely time, sunbathing by the sea. The sound of the waves rolling to the shore calmed and soothed her, and she felt at peace. She saw a group of children making sandcastles. She took a sip from her cool, refreshing drink and returned to read her book as the gentle breeze ruffled her hair.      BEEP! BEEP! Rhea was woken up by the sound of her phone.
