An Eclipse of ALC's Sunbeam
With her radiant face lit up by a beautiful smile, she moves towards me and announces in these words, “I was accepted to join the organism I applied to.” Facing the fact of no longer seeing this exceptional person, I was automatically seized with a strange feeling of concern. The unique question that had crossed my mind was to know when she would leave, for which she replied, “In the beginning of June.” Shortly after, I pulled myself together as she explained to me in a few words the foundation of her decision. By hearing her reasons, I realized automatically that the benefits would be sizeable for her little family. So my sorrows were suddenly covered by a nice feeling of hope for this teacher who was a perfect example of a pleasant person to mix with.
However, she must know that the ALC will be bleak without the sound of her voice punctuated with her lovely laughter. She is begged to accept my pleas for her permanent availability, her English lessons, and the kindness that everybody in the ALC acknowledges her for.
With all my heart, I wish all the happiness and good luck for our teacher Mrs. Kym Brown.
