Loving every single moment of it

"Happy Teacher's Day!" cried 'Sarah' and Alice when Flan stepped into sight.
"Oh, wow...Oh my!" gushed Flan, all pink in delight, as she took in the scene - 'Sarah' and Alice were balancing a beautifully wrapped box on their palms, as if it was a birthday cake. Beneath the present was a white envelope. "Wow, and it comes with a card too! Thank you....you guys are sooo sweeeeet!" Flan blushed prettily. So taken aback by this pleasant surprise that she didn't know what else to say.

At the end of the lesson, Flan was still in a kind of a stupor. She was quite stunned by the sweet gesture and even more so to discover the "thought-that-counts" to be a very beautiful and exquisite handcrafted jewellery box that is embellished with real mother-of-pearl! And the card they wrote was just so sweet. Flan laughed to herself as she read what 'Sarah' had written - ..."Thank you for teaching me an English. Although it is a little bit hard, I like it..." Flan felt gratified to see the paragraph of well wishes - her efforts have paid off. Seeing them translate their thoughts into proper English sentences was the best gift they could ever give her.
