On last Thursday I had accidentally pulled a muscle in my back which gave me so much pain that I had to take two days off. (That's why discovered about Ad's sad departure so late.)
Today when I and Cl were in the play ground, she came to me and said.
"Oh, I am so glad that you are back now. I missed you so much. You have no idea, working with you is so different and...with others...it is so entirely different. I can't tell you anything specifically but...yes, everything becomes different....you know...Other people have a different way of doing every thing and that's...not the way you and I work.With you working is so much easy and actually fun but that's not with others."
"Yes, I know exactly what you are trying to say. When you had gone to Saudi Arabia and I handled my group without you, I had felt exactly the same."
Both Cl and I are very loving, tender and caring with the kids and understand and respect their individual needs.(With parents as well.) The other teachers don't so naturally we feel bad if anyone pushes any wrong buttons in our children. And then, we take perfect care of each other as well; it is both in me as well as in Cl that we try to work harder ourselves rather than let the other do the hard part, so, often, it becomes like a competition who of us both will do the difficult work with both of us wanting to make things easy and comfortable for the other. Not only this, we also understand and respect each other's desires and give our full support in carrying out each other's wishes. That makes us perfect team mates.
I often wonder what it would have been like if I had Mz, the deadly serpent, or Nd the bitch, or St the lazy female or Mym who is another snake under the shadows of Mz, as my team mate. God forbid...!
