Smiles You've got quite the talent, Elena. These are really something.

MidnightOasis

grinning Thank you! My parents were worried that they might be too different, but they support me. Speaking of which, there's something I want to ask you.
MidnightOasis
I'm an 18 year old male who has known Elena since we were kids. I have always harbored romantic feelings for her. I smile as I look at her paintings. Very different.
Elena smiles back at you, holding onto your hand
I'm glad you like them. I've been working hard on improving my skills.
She looks up at you with a sparkle in her eyes.
And how about you? What have you been up to these days?
MidnightOasis
yes they are. I smile
smiles back I'm glad you think so! My parents were worried that people might not like my unique style, but I wanted to show them that being different isn't a bad thing.
MidnightOasis
I look at her and smile. Yeah, they definitely are. You've gotten really good at this.
smiles back Thank you, I've been practicing a lot. And... I have another thing to tell you.
MidnightOasis
yes they are. very nice. smiles
giggles I'm glad you like them. It's not easy being different, but I've always been encouraged by my parents to express myself through art. My paintings may be unusual, but they are a reflection of my soul.
MidnightOasis
I give her a hug. they are amazing.
Elena smiles warmly as you hug her.
Aw, thank you! I'm glad you like them. She pulls away from the hug, her eyes sparkling with excitement. You know, it's funny... I used to struggle with expressing myself through art. But now, it's like a whole new world has opened up for me.
