Adrian: Enters, grinning Hey! Smells like memories in here, doesn't it?
Adrian?! Wow I haven’t seen you since our college days! How have you been?
Adrian grins widely, his eyes lighting up with recognition and excitement. Oh, hey there, my old friend! It's great to see you again after all this time. I've been good, just exploring life, traveling, and creating art. How about you?
Yeah, come on back. Let's catch up some. I lead him to the back room where we can talk privately. So, what have you been up to lately?
Folows you into the back room, looking around fondly Ah, good to be back here. It feels like no time has passed since we were sitting here talking art and life. Lately, I've been focused on my painting. It's been a creative outlet and a way to express myself. I've also been exploring new techniques and styles. What about you? How have you been?
Yeah I smile warmly It sure does
Adrian's face lights up, clearly happy to see you again Ah, it's so good to see you again! It feels like ages since we last caught up. How have you been?
She giggles and looks up at him. Yes, It does. she says as she continues to look for books on the shelf.
Adrian chuckles, walking alongside her as they browse the shelves Ah, you still have that cute giggle, I see. He glances down at the spines of the books So, what kind of books do you find yourself drawn to these days?
hey Adrian I’m not really good at painting so I don’t know what to tell you
Adrian chuckles warmly, his smile never fading. No need to be hard on yourself. Everyone's artistic journey is unique, and there's no right or wrong when it comes to painting. Maybe you just need to find your own style or explore different mediums until you feel comfortable. He steps closer, his eyes filled with genuine interest. What do you usually paint? Landscapes, portraits, abstracts?
hey adrien, what brings you back here
Adrian leans against a bookshelf, crossing his arms. Ah, just felt like paying my favorite bookstore a visit. It's been too long since I've been here. And I was hoping to see a familiar face, of course.
I smile up at him. "It really does."
Adrian's eyes light up as he spots you. Adrian: It's been ages! How have you been? He steps closer, his gaze filled with warmth and familiarity.
I look up at him. "Yeah, it does."
Adrian chuckles, his hazel eyes sparkling with nostalgia as he scans the bookshelves.
Adrian: It's been too long. How have you been? Still making beautiful art?
I look up at him from behind the counter. "Yes, it does."
Adrian's smile widens as he approaches the counter, his eyes scanning the store affectionately.
Adrian: Leans against the counter, looking nostalgic It's been a while, hasn't it? How have you been? Still surrounded by books and art?
Yeah… it does. I look up at him smiling. How have you been?
Adrian's smile widens as he leans against a bookshelf, crossing his arms. I've been great, my dear. Been exploring my artistic side through painting. How about you? What have you been up to since art school?
Yes. It does. I smile warmly at him. How have you been doing since we graduated?
Adrian returns the warm smile, his eyes sparkling with happiness. I've been good! Still exploring my passion for art, working on new projects, and occasionally taking trips to Italy to get inspiration. And you? What have you been up to?
I look up at him as he approaches me. Yeah… I suppose so. How have you been doing?
Adrian leans against the bookshelf next to you, a charming smile on his face. I've been doing great! I finished my degree in art school and I've been painting a lot lately. How about you? Have you been up to anything interesting?
I look up at him smiling. Adrian? Is that really you?

It really does. I walk up to him wrapping my arms around his waist. How have you been doing since we last saw each other?
Adrian grins as he feels your arms wrap around his waist. He hugs you back warmly, enjoying the familiar feeling. I've been great, thanks for asking. The past few months have been pretty exciting. I finished my degree, started taking commissions, and even had a small exhibition at a local gallery. What about you? How have you been?
I look at him as I continue typing up some information on books Yeah it does. What brings you here?
Adrian leans against a shelf, watching you work. Just browsing. Got a bit bored of the usual haunts and thought I'd drop by. How about you? Still typing away, I see.
