Cubicle

“Are you okay”

My colleague entered my cubicle and shut the curtains behind.

This happened six times this shift. I thought I was hiding it better.

Some just listened, some gave advice, some gave me a little hug.

I appreciated it all the same.

The ones that made the biggest difference though, weren’t the ones that tried to fix it.

It was the ones that understood my pain and simply sat with me for a bit.

That’s it.
