Some might find the gentle whisper of words from a lady's mouth so close to their ear appealing but Leonardo for the second time this afternoon nearly tumbled from his stool, this time the force of gravity curtailed by the lady being so close. He fell backwards... right into her.

"Mi scusi..."

The apology given as she was given the strongest side-eyeing.

"I did not know there was another so close. When I am working I can become too absorbed..."

Sure. That was it. How DID she get that close??
