We made small talk that night and I told her that I went to school at the same university but back then it was Southwest Texas State and she just gigg...ed at that and asked me if the river was there at that time. I laughed and said yes the river was indeed there way back in the 80's. Well flash forward about six months and I had to go to San Marcos for business. My Boss told me that since I would be near Texas State I should take Dana out to lunch since she was really struggling to adapt to. One day she came to me almost crying that she required her training report today otherwise she will be scolded by her mentor. Actually she had not submitted her periodical reports and that resulted in my favour. It was very common for me. I took a soft copy of earlier reports submitted and made some changes in her favour.That day I won a special place in her heart.Anyway she closed the training and we kept on chatting as to what is happening in her studies & all that.After a month, accident. In some places, they had massive straight cliffs that towered over their road for several hundred metres.The blocking of the sun for most of the day made these passages quite eerie. In places, water had also eroded deep gullies to the sides of the path and in some; they had widened to become a stream or even a river that ran beside the path. In many places, there was a steep drop off on one side and the river was anything from tens of meters to many hundreds of metres below them.The rivers. Thank you, thank you so much. I'm so happy." She then proceeded to let her head fall against my chest, and began to shed tears of joy.I moved to deflect the adoration. "Sandra deserves most of the credit. This was her idea," I pointed out. Whether or not that was true, I'd just induced Wendy to cry tears of happiness. For the first time since I'd been rudely taken away from my comfy life in Florida, I momentarily felt like a million bucks.Wendy and I soon realized we had a rather embarrassing.
