The shattering made everyone stop talking and look around at what was happening and I just stood there with what's called a sheepish grin kind of embarrassed at my misfortune and people rolled their eyes and picked up their lives and whispered to each other that it was only a matter of time seeing as I was holding onto it so clumsily But actually it was you who with the sweetest of smiles and the most sympathetic of nods took it from my trembling hands and let it tumble down.
