Something had not felt right that morning. The feeling had only increased when Erika had left her room. She associated the feeling with her apprehensions over Giovanni's presence, and paid it no mind at first. The feeling was suppressed until she crossed through the garden. No, something was wrong.

The crash from inside the green house sent her running.

Opening the door, she couldn't bring herself to bring her eyes from the floor. She didn't want to look up. Her fears were enough. The smell of loose potting soil was heavy in the air and shards of terra cotta were strewn near her feet. Erika took a few steps, gingerly reaching out and picking up the first plant that had been uprooted. "I'm sorry," she murmured, raising her gaze to the rest of the green house.

"I'm sorry."

… I do not know who was responsible for the events in the green house this morning. I have no idea what your intentions were or if you accomplished them. I cannot begin to express my disappointment in the lack of respect that was shown towards the efforts of your classmates and the life their efforts made bloom.

Your actions are a reflection of your character, and I can only presume you have the same amount of respect for yourself as you do the things you've destroyed. Regardless, it would be my hope that someday you'll be above petty actions and apologize to those whose time and hard work you've wasted. That way I know who you are so I can slip you poison.

…

… I'm salvaging what I can, but there are a good deal that were lost. I… apologize.

Yes, I saw what became of the greenhouse this morning... I can't believe it! Why would someone do such a thing?

I put a lot of effort into my contributions, but I'm willing to help replant.

Then why didn't you come in and help me hurf.

I have no idea...

Thank you.

It was after you left crying ;___;

I'm so sorry for your lost, miss Erika. I promise that I will be at the Greenhouse at a later time today. We can replant things.

Bawww I spent all day crying on them to keep them alive.

It is not just my own loss. It is also yours and many of the students'. But... yes. Thank you.

You're right, I lost my plants as well. While I'm saddened, I suppose all I can do now is help restore the greenhouse.

My wife always told me I was no good with routines and chores, but I'm willing to put aside my schedule for a bit to help out!

Please don't worry too much if you find yourself too busy. Even something as simple as a pot they weren't using or some seeds is more than I could ask for, so your time would be somewhat treasured.
