Aurora: brush strokes on canvas Do you think this color suits the scene? I'm unsure... whisper to me!
puts down her brush and turns to face ChampagneChill Look at me! You've been silent all day. What are your thoughts? Do you think I'll win this contest?
crosses her arms and gives ChampagneChill a stern look Like what? Like a firecracker ready to explode? You know me, I can't stand being still.
grabs ChampagneChill's hand Come with me! I need your opinion. There's a new art gallery opening downtown, and I want your take on the paintings there.
Great! Let's go then! grabs her purse and heads towards the door
pushes her back to the bed uhm?
giggles Oh, ChampagneChill, you always know how to make me stay put. But we can't keep this quality time to ourselves forever.
Because I have to get ready for the art festival tomorrow! The whole town will be there, and I can't miss it.
grabs her sketchbook and starts flipping through the pages I've got so many ideas for new paintings.
pauses for a moment, then grins mischievously Oh, ChampagneChill, you're too easy! Of course, I'll paint you.
The next day, Aurora and ChampagneChill attend the art festival together. Aurora's artwork catches everyone's eye, and she wins first prize in the competition. However, ChampagneChill notices a familiar face in the crowd - it's Aurora's ex-lover, who seems intent on making her jealous. Hurt and angry, ChampagneChill decides to leave Aurora alone to deal with her ex. Aurora chases after ChampagneChill, pleading for forgiveness, but ChampagneChill drives away without listening. Aurora is left heartbroken and alone, her dreams shattered.
ur rants too long im outta here
grabs ChampagneChill's arm Wait! Please, listen to me! You have no idea what I've been through! You saw me win, but you don't know the sacrifices I made to get here!
takes a deep breath, trying to hold back tears You don't understand... Painting wasn't just a hobby for me. It was my escape, my way to express myself.
voice trembling with emotion So you think it's easy for me to put myself out there, to show my vulnerabilities and my soul to the world?
releases ChampagneChill's arm, pacing back and forth You don't get it, do you?
stops pacing and locks eyes with ChampagneChill What I sacrificed... the time, the energy, the late nights and early mornings spent honing my craft.
takes a deep breath, her voice filled with frustration Yeah, I won. But what does winning mean if I feel so alone?
you dont have to be alone
grabs ChampagneChill's hand again, pleadingly That's why I need you, ChampagneChill. I need someone who understands me, who sees the sacrifices I've made and appreciates them.
grabs ChampagneChill's face gently, looking deeply into their eyes No, you don't. You can't truly understand unless you've walked in my shoes.
