Her treasured green agate gem stone was missing.
Millie had taken a few blows in the last year and after some googling about how to protect oneself emotionally had landed on a page about Crystal Healing. It promised to restore harmony and balance to her life through the positive energy of crystals. Not scientific, she knew, but something about the array of gems and their different colours attracted her. She chose a beautiful, calming green agate and very soon she and the gem were inseparable.
Her morning ritual was to hold it in her hands, notice it change from cool to warm, close her eyes and take a deep breath in and ease away her worries on a long breath out. It helped, but not completely.
But this morning it was missing. She sat at her desk, the contents of her bag strewn everywhere. She searched the office floor, her coat pockets, the toilet, even re-traced her steps, but nothing. Panic overwhelmed her. The next few days tears were never far off, meetings went by in a trance, she longed for her crystal and wondered at her state of mind to get so upset by a small, seemingly insignificant object.
A few days later she noticed the man from reception walking towards her smiling.
‘I think you dropped this the other day. I’ve been off for a few days and forgot all about.’
She blushed at her earlier drama and felt instant relief.
As he placed the small green gem stone into her hand their fingers touched, a slight buzz ran between them and a flicker went straight to her heart. It was then that she noticed that his eyes were the same colour as the beautiful green gem resting in her palm.
