Student: “Oh, Mister, I was going to bring you something today, but I didn’t.”
Me: “Um…OK. Thanks, I guess?”
Student: “Oh, sorry. I guess what I meant to say was that I was going to bring you something that my family gave me from New Zealand.”
Me: “Thank you, I think. But you didn’t bring it, so why are you telling me this?”
Student: “Oh. It’s because it’s literally just chocolates and peanuts. It’s a peanut slab so that’s all it’s made up of. But I realized it’s the two things that you can’t eat so I didn’t bring it.”
Me: “Thank you for thinking of me…and for not taking away my voice before I get an allergic reaction.” (2/28/22)
