Leaving his classroom, he noticed the boy was headed off somewhere so he decided to follow from a safe distance so he could appear casually at the destination where he went too. Realizing that he was headed to the Greenhouses, he dropped back and let things happen. Never intervening but observing.
Once in the greenhouse, he greeted him. “Mr Anders, what are you doing here?”
Gardening was not something Jude did much. Okay, fine. It wasn’t something he did at all and the only time he seemed to ‘sprout’ the green thumb mood was during Herbology lessons. Still… the activity served as a pleasant and distracting one. The freshly plucked weeds were discarded in a neat pile so that he could transfer it to the compost heap. Wait... were there any compost heaps presently in the greenhouses? Nitrogen from grass was rather useful and it would be a shame to waste that.
Jude actually had no idea he was being stalked. Not that he would think anyone had a reason to stalk him of all people in the first place. But the sudden appearance of Professor Holden was certainly welcome and it sent Jude into a small smile. “Hi, professor. Just taking some time to be among nature.” He winced, much like he did when Reagan was being loud around the house, as the daffodils set about honking in unison again. “Care to help me out? I reckon Professor Devries would be grateful.” |
