Chapter 30
Ethan left after dinner, and since I wasn't willing to stay up I went to bed early, my body was so sore and exhausted that as soon as I lay in bed and felt the warmth of the blanket I blacked out, I woke up feeling the sun on my face, but it was still cold and freezing, I wouldn't go to the studio that day since it was every other day, so I would have plenty of time to rest and start my sketch. - COF! COF! - I got up, still coughing but feeling my body less sore and warm, probably the fever had already gone down, I got out of bed and opened the rest of the curtain since there was only a small gap allowing the sun to shine through. Outside everything looked very wet, and the sky still had clouds, so it would probably rain that day, I went to the bathroom to wash my face and do everything that should be done, I didn't change my clothes since I would be at home and would still feel comfortable and warm with my pajamas, I went to the kitchen and started preparing my breakfast, opened the

It didn't take Ethan ten minutes to arrive at my house, where I was already waiting at the door with my arms outstretched, ready to take the little puppy from his arms, who started wagging his tail the instant he realized my presence. - Akira! Come here! Let me hug you! - I said, taking the animal in my arms and feeling its soft and smelly fur. - It seems he really likes you. - I heard Ethan speak in front of me. - I like him too, don't I, sweetie! - I said in a childish voice and put him next to my happy face. - Come on, let's go inside, it's cold out here! - I kept pulling on Ethan's arm, and he followed me, closing the door behind him. - Thanks for bringing him! I was feeling lonely in here! COF! COF! - I said sincerely, as I stroked the dog's head. - I understand, but you still don't look very well, have you really had any dinner yet? - He asked, while giving me a worried look, and probably seeing my red face. - That's true, but that doesn't mean I won't have dinner, I just

- I don't think so since you don't have points, but rather large spots on your eyes and body, let's see another one. - I said as I switched to the next photo. - Siberian Husky? Hum, I don't think so, your eyes aren't even clear, and you have more flowing fur. - I switched back to the next photo. - Mountain Bernese, of course not, this one also has brown on the muzzle. - I didn't even compare them, since they didn't look anything alike. - French Bulldog, tell me, do you speak French? - I asked, and he tilted his head to the side. - I don't think so, and you don't even look old, this one looks like an old man. - I said, turning the cell phone over and showing it to him, who looked at it and wagged his tail. - Do you agree with me? Well, let's move on. - I scrolled to the next picture. - Hm! Border collie, this one is very cute! He looks just like you! - I showed it to him and the puppy let out a very thin bark as if he agreed. - So we found out who you look like! - I said, looking

- So you had a good childhood. - Ethan spoke thoughtfully. - Did you? - I asked as I put the plate aside and paid attention to the man. - I think if we talk about this, it's going to get very awkward. - I nodded my head in agreement, not judging him for not wanting to talk about his childhood, I didn't want to get into that subject myself. - Good, then let's talk about something else, what do you do during the day? - I asked, now resting my head on the back of my hand on the table. - I guess it's not very interesting, I don't have many hobbies. - Ethan shrugged. - Oh, you sure do enjoy doing something, you're just trying to hide it. - I said, trying to encourage him, since I wanted to know more about the man, I wanted to get as much out of him as possible. - I like to read, to run in the morning aimlessly, to observe the landscape, to create something with my hands, I'm really not someone interesting. - He spoke a little discouraged. - You are not uninteresting, everyone has the

- Please take me to Mr. Leblanc's art studio downtown, thank you! - I informed him, putting the food back in my mouth. - Very well, feel comfortable that the trip will be very fast! - He warned, already starting the car. I was really thankful to meet Mr. Joseph, he was such a kind and sweet man, his wife was very lucky to have such a kind husband, while the man was driving he divided his attention to the steering wheel and keeping a nice conversation, telling me about how his wife cooked delicious meals and how beautiful and happy their children were, listening to him made me feel immense desire to meet his family, but I know that it wouldn't be like that, after all no one would like to have in their home a woman they barely knew. When we arrived in front of the studio, Mr. Joseph stopped the car and I paid him the cost of the ride, we wished him a great day and said goodbye, I walked through the door of the studio smiling without noticing that Draven was beside the door. - I believ

- And I chose the image of a woman to represent the delicacy and subtlety that even if she has an unhappy feeling, she is still beautiful and delicate as she should be. - I finally finished speaking by explaining everything I wanted to get across with my sketch. - I don't think I have much to say. - Draven spoke up after a while, making me worried. - Kaina and Brendon, tell me what you think? I would like to hear your opinions. - My professor is the boss asked, and this made me very anxious, I looked at my classmates expectantly and saw Brendon raising his hand. - You may speak. - Draven read him the liberty. - The feeling that the sketch is bringing is indeed a very heavy feeling, but the three elements together brought a lightness and strength, I particularly liked the idea. - He spoke simply to make me smile. - Thank you! - I thanked him as soon as the man looked at me giving me a simple nod, I looked at the other woman there besides me, waiting for her to speak. - Kaina. - Th

In the end when we started to drink we became looser and started an animated conversation, besides that glass I took maybe two more, I had really enjoyed that even though I felt my head was spinning, I was excited and when the music started to play louder encouraging people to dance I didn't hesitate when my friend pulled me to the small dance floor we danced excitedly when two guys started touching us making me very uncomfortable. - Hey! Get-tt out of he-re! - My drunken, slurred voice didn't make the two men leave. - Come on, cutie, let's have some fun! - I pushed him closer, and saw Draven and Brendon coming to our rescue, and pulled Kaina past the men. - Hey, come back here, little flower. - The tall, bearded, bald man in a leather jacket held up my hand. - Hey ma-ne, let-t her go! - Kaina said, raising her arms in irritation even though she was drunk, the man didn't obey and just smiled as his friend came toward us. - Let's let them go, I don't think you want to fight here! -

- Blargh! Blargh!! - And all the contents of my stomach ended up on my sidewalk. - I don't think I'm feeling well. - I mumbled, feeling the urge to vomit again. - Happy now! - I heard Draven arguing with my neighbor, as I felt the alcohol diminish and give me more logical thinking and, of course, more craving to be in the middle of it all. - I guess it's your fault, you're the one who took her. - Ethan spoke calmly as he held my hair back so as not to get it messy, and I'd sure thank him if I wasn't busy bending over and feeling, but wanting to get it all out. - Give me my purse. - I asked, lifting my change and extending my hand to Draven, who as soon as he heard me gave it back. - Come on, I'll take you home. - He said, pulling me. - No need, I'm already home. - I answered letting go and leaving the two men behind, while I staggered towards my door seeing everything spinning and feeling terrible, I certainly wouldn't do that again ever. When I reached my door for what seemed l

Since the same opened his door and looked at me attentively as if he was analyzing me thoroughly, I said goodbye greeting him and was ready to start walking towards the center, but then I heard his voice. - Wait! - His voice automatically made me stop on the sidewalk to his house, when I heard him approaching I turned my body and smiled bitterly and scared to death with sweaty hands. - Good morning, Mr. Black. - I greeted him with a bitter taste in my mouth. - Are you okay? He asked already in front of me, I swallowed dry, because there I knew that the man had with all the certainty of the world seen me yesterday. - Yes, fine! Is there a problem, Mr. Black? - I said, drying my hand on my pants, distressed and ashamed to be in front of him. - Well, none, but... - I cut him off, afraid to hear what I was already imagining. - Oh, good! So I'm a little late, but we can talk tonight in a little more calm! - I said starting to walk while the man looked at me confused, I gave him no cha

When Brendon arrived Draven entered together in the room, Kiana made a face as if nothing had happened, but I knew that inside the woman must be biting with nervousness and shame even if it seems that she has not done anything compromising enough, well I tried to follow equally since I did not want to get into the subject. - Well since you are all here, I will show you the paintings we have as I said before it can't be a small painting, our client likes big things. - Draven explained as he went to the back of the room, taking us along. - These are the sizes 120CMX80cm and 150CMX100cm. - Draven removed a cloth that covered them, so they wouldn't get dust, there were many and those were the biggest, they were practically my size, which was one and sixty, if I chose the biggest I would certainly have difficulties, but if it wasn't for challenges I would rather still be working in the cafeteria. - You can choose what you need. - My teacher gave me the floor, Kiana and Brendon were undec
