She took the box from the girl, managing only the smallest of smiles through her very concerned expression. When she opened the box, she looked down at her gifts with tears in her eyes. "Thank you, Lexi. They're beautiful," she whispered.
When she looked back up, she gave Lex a look full of mixed emotions. "Come straight to my office in the morning, dear. No excuses, okay?"
Lexi nodded her head in understanding. The common reaction was OMG WHAT HAPPENED?! and she did not want to discuss it in mixed company and all that. "
I know." Twas all she could really say.
"
I am glad you like them, Madame. I picked them up in this little street fair in Santorini. I wasn't sure if you wear gold, but they are Grecian so if not, they would be nice decoration or something..." she rambled a bit.
Nodding her head and wiping angrily at her stupid eyes she said, "
Yes, Madame Donovan. There are things that I need to talk to you about anyway. Now I will head back to my table... I see you are busy. I will see you in the morning for sure."
With that she dropped her eyes and began her way down from the dais and back to her table. Sadface Lion she was. Indeed.
