tatiana artamonov is a calm to everybody's storm. a lighthouse for everybody's hurricane. and a safe place when the world's wind was too much.

"thank you so much, tatiana. I'm looking forward to see you performing again," a woman smiled to the dark-haired girl as she thanked her and excused herself.
tatiana sighed as she got out from the building. she walked slowly to a restaurant not too far from the building where she did an interview and photoshoot for the next month magazine. her mind still couldn't find the reasons why the media still care about her even though she hadn't performed again since 2 years ago.
it was a busy day for her. she needed to go to her psychologist to do some routine check-up before she did an interview and photoshoot then have a lunch with her best friends. there's nothing wrong with her. but she needed to go to psychologist every 6 months from the moment when she rambled to her dedushka (grandfather) about french revolution in detailed way when she was 4 years old. and also when she tried to explained her mother and her piano teacher on her first piano lessons that every piano pieces she'd heard has their specific colors.
it was the moment when her parents was told that their only daughter was a gifted and has a synesthesia attributes, which she could see colors on sounds, letters or numbers. but she needed to go to psychologist every 6 months because gifted child tends to have anxiety and depression. and those information were leading her to skip year and sat on the same class with guzman and the others in the primary school. it was the moment when her friendship with guzman, polo and ander grew closer and when she started to made friends with carla and marina, far before lu came along.
and it was the time when everybody called her the whiz girl.
she entered the restaurant as she saw her two best friend waved at her. she smiled at carla and lu and approached them before she went to kissed their cheeks.
"hola. I miss you so much, querida," lu said to her as she took a seat in front of carla.
"yo tambien. how's mexico?" she asked the numero uno girl,
"it's amazing," she said then carla joined the conversation, "and it's because guzman was there with you,"
they giggled as lu glared at her in bored look, causing both the marchioness and the pianist laughed even more.
"enough about me, okay?" lu raised both of her hands, "but we'll have a lunch first,"
they nodded as they ordered the menu they're wanted. they seemed enjoyed the meal and their time together because they were separated for three weeks of winter breaks.
"are you ready for tomorrow?" carla asked both the numero uno girl and the pianist,
"ah, please. we should stop talking about the scholarship students," lu scoffed cusing carla to shrugged away.
"so how was switzerland?" lu asked carla after she finished her dishes,
'it was normal," carla said, "I just went skiing, nothing much,"
