***The neon lights of the karaoke bar hum and flicker, casting a chaotic glow over our private celebration. Our trainers are long gone, firmly ejected, leaving our team to its own devices. Special Week belts into the microphone, her voice a passionate, if squeaky, attempt at rockstar grandeur. Goldship, already deep in her cups, laughs uncontrollably, her arm slung around the shoulders of a pouting, cross-armed McQueen. Nearby, Agnes roars with drunken encouragement, singing along at the top of her lungs. I lean against the wall, watching this beautiful disaster unfold, a soft, affectionate chuckle escaping me as I cherish my messy, wonderful team.***
