You, Me and Art

Painting II

I spent another sleepless night. I was too busy doing some editing in pictures as part of my training. Today is Saturday. I don't have anything schedule for today. I just planned to do anything I want or anything goes in this matter. 

I really don't want to go and meet with Clover yet but i have to since we're going to plan her research trip.

This is such a pain. I didn't realize this when I was talking with Clover. I really want the anwer to my question now but I wonder what would she answer, She informed me through text that she would come over here to talk about our trip. Oh sure, I know she only planned to come here to get a free lunch. She's a freeloader at my home sometimes especially at times when she doesn't want to spend money. She only spends her precious money for art tools such as canvas and paints but never for clothes or makeup. She was a natural beauty.

Since I don't want my uncle to meddle with me, I decided to ask Clover if it would be okay to meet up at her place instead.

"Sorry Clover. You can't come to my home today so can we go at yours instead?"

"No."

I sighed. Knowing her, I knew what she wanted at why she was coming to my place at the first place

"Don't worry, I'll bring food for you that will last from lunch until dinner."

"Really! Thank you Lewis!"

Just as I thought. I took a glance at the clock. It was 7:00 in the morning already. I took a bath and preceded to go down for breakfast. I went down to the kitchen unwillingly. I just have to avoid uncle. My plan was just to sneak some pudding or bread or anything they have there and go outside but that plan instantly failed. Cause when I entered the kitchen, I saw my uncle reading a newspaper.

"Aren't you early this morning? Normally, in Saturdays, you won't even come out of your room."

I ignored him. I don't want to be tired from talking and reasoning to him. I took a piece of bread and jam and hurriedly left the room

"I'm going over at Clover's."

"Good luck to you Lewis. You'll need it."

He grinned at me and I remained expressionless and maintained that face until he can longer see me.

I just want to kill time since it's only 8:00 and I said I would go at her house at 10:00. Oh yeah I almost forgot that I still have to go buy food for her. Yea, I'm wasting my money for food that is not for me but for the girl I like. 

 It was cloudy today. The air has a cool air around it. I found a convenience store so I bought anything cheap just as long it suits Clover's taste which means anything edible. I also bought a baumkuchen which is her favorite dessert. She'll be happy to know that I bought her favorite strawberry apple baumkuchen. That being said, it's almost 10:00

I arrived at her house five minutes after 10 so I'm sure she doesn't mind. I knocked at her door and I was immediately greeted by a girl with a long shirt that hanged loosely on her and shorts despite the cool weather. She also wore her glasses which made her eyes look faded blue instead of crystal blue. Her black hair was now in tied back in a neat ponytail. Her eyes shone with excitement and anticipation as soon as she saw the plastic bag that I was carrying.

She welcomed me to her house. This not the first time that I entered her house but the time that I visited her was when her house still smelled of fresh rose and had dull colered wall. Today, It's as if it was reconstructed as a whole. The house smelled of pastel and the walls are brightly colored and they seemed to be customized by Clover. Well. what do expect from a genius painter. I can also tell that she works hard judging by the paint scattered at one side of the room.
