Well, the "verdict" is out, and I'm trying my very best not to be affected by it....

During the lunch hours, I took a pack of pastries, walked over to her place, and intended to pass it to anyone in her cluster (absolutely no intentions of wanting to see her, or whatsoever.) Well, no big twist again, she was around, and thus, I just walked towards her desk and the following conversation ensued:

Me: Hey, here's some food for you all. My colleague has bought it on my behalf. (And I placed the pack on their coffee table.)
Elena: Oh, please take it back; we have enough food already. (And she quickly passed the pack back to me.)
Me: .... Well, pass it to Francisca for me then.
Elena: (Quite hostilely) No. You pass it to her yourself later.
Me: .... Pass the message to her that it's from me.
Elena: No...
Me: .... Never mind. (And I continued to place the pack on Francisca's desk) I'll drop her an email then... (Walked away.)

Lord, I know my world will crumble very, very soon. Please give me the strength to survive this catastrophe without affecting anyone around me. Give me the sensitivity to Your comforting arms, and the wisdom to accept that Your love is more than sufficient for me. In His precious name..........................
