I Am so Happy

I was very moved by Stf and Ndn's sadness yesterday and had a secret fear in my heart that Mks might have been fired. I did see him talking to Stf the boss, alone in the orange room.

When I reached the station, I bought a few really beautiful looking chocolates. I quickly wrote on three large packets a message for Ndn and Stf that I wanted to see them smile and to let them know that I loved them and gave the bag of chocolates to them.

Five minutes later, Stf came into my room and she hugged and kissed me emotionally with tears in her eyes.
"You are so nice. I can't tell you how emotional I am feeling at your gesture. I hate the management but for nice people like you I love coming to this school." I myself became emotional this time. I was glad she was happy. She thanked me so many many times. Then later Ndn too came and hugged me.

I was so happy. I was indescribably happy. My heart was almost singing in joy. I had been able to make two people smile and that is a treasure for me. More treasure was in store...!

Mks came and took me to the staff room laptop to search for the correct lyrics of "We wish you a merry Christmas.." While he searched he started telling me that Stf is so impressed with me and Cl!
"What?" I cried in total disbelief.
"Yes. That's what she said. She said"Look at * and Cl. They never have any problem. They work so hard. They are happy with the school. Why can't you be like them?"
"Did she really say this?"
"Yes! We had a long talk. I told her everything. How Mz and My do nothing and behave so badly with all the other teachers, about that fucking Mgt who needs to be fired immediately, about my recent troubles with My and Mz because of their being rude and unfair to me; I told her everything. She listened to me patiently and said she would try to help me out. I am feeling so much better now after so many days, almost two weeks."
"Do you know, I have brought something for you. A chocolate!"
"Why?"
"I just wanted you to be happy. It is a great news indeed that you are already feeling nicer."

I gave him the chocolate and he remarked
"Hey, you are really good. You are so nice. You make me happy everyday. I enjoy coming to work because of you. You are really nice."

And then when it was Asy's turn to go on her break, I gave her a chocolate too. She was also surprised.
"But why?"
"No reason. Just because you are very nice."
She too hugged me fondly.

Today I have been immeasurably happy! The simple happiness I saw on the faces of these people was really like a fortune. I only hope it was not because of the chocolate or worse still they do not misconstruct. I had no other means to express my care and appreciation for them and hence I had given the chocolate.

Secret Santa game has started again. I got a gift of chocolates and decorative candles as well as a small chocolate for H too! I am guessing it is someone who is nice and nearer to me and possibly a man because the gift was wrapped in a newspaper and the person had taken great pains in cutting out the letters of my name out from the newspaper and had stuck it on the box with a cello tape. I wonder who is my Santa...!
As to me, I am Gbt's. She was a trainee last year and has now joined Mks' group. She is very young only about 20 or 21 years so I got her a beautiful calendar with some nice encouraging words/quotes and beautiful pictures for all months and a big packet of expensive chocolates. I wrapped them up with a beautiful pick colored gift paper and pink and white polka dotted satin ribbon. The packet looked irresistably beautiful.
