This bouquet was delivered to me, as a generous gift from my non-traditional student, "The Covered One". She did not deliver it herself, for that would've been too forward in her culture. She asked the office ladies to deliver it.

Beautiful Onion; Fish Envy; and a New Friend
Swayed by the heavy half of my job, I walk with stout determination into her office and promptly get to work on the "problem". She quietly stands observing my progress. It is not her, but the problem I am attempting to resolve that is making me cranky. She continues to stand and observe. Stopping, to reach for a tool, I become aware of her quiet, gentle "Small Giantish" gaze. Straightening myself up, I mumble something about being right back and head towards the door.
