Her voice wobbled just a little, but she steadied it by biting the inside of her cheek, an old habit she hadn't managed to shake. The tablet felt too smooth under her fingertips, almost slippery, and she kept scrolling up and down the calendar twice just to be sure she wasn't messing anything up. She must've looked absurdly serious, frowning at the screen as if it had personally offended her.
"Yes, he'll be available on that date," she said after a quick breath. "So yes, the meeting can be pushed back. I'll send a confirmation email in a moment." She added a tiny, polite laugh even though nothing was particularly funny. Customer service reflex.
