Teaching her a lesson
"It was really not a big deal, Tabitha -- it could happen to anyone, especially on their first time."
Before I could add that it was also to be her last time, she cut me off, taking to her feet and stopping right in front of me. "Justin didn't use his teeth on what I can only assume was his first time," she pointed out. I winced at the reminder. "I'll practice. I'll get good at it. I'll get good at everything. You just have to show me how, OK? I realize I put you on the defensive earlier, but that was my fault. I get it now. Look at this guy, huh?" Tabitha playfully nudged my shoulder. She was standing much too close, though. "Teaching me, even outside the classroom."
