Vendough Art Gallery
Hallie Kim POV
I'm here inside a big Art gallery here in Canada the Vendough Art Gallery. I'm simply standing in front of a painting that I made, today the exhibition so I can easily go here to see other paintings as well, so I can enter freely because no one know my face, they only know my name but not my face, one of the things I hate is why I became an artist if I can only be known by my name, I have a lot of resentment towards my father because he is the reason why is it that a famous artist is only known by her name, I have no other choice but to follow him, well if you ask me, it's better to be like this than for them to recognize my real face, when I'm like this, I can act more freely when you go to art galleries and art auctions no one knows you.
But there is also a part of me that is sad and there is also a part of me that is happy that one day the day will come when I will finally show the whole world my true face so that they will not only know me by my name but also by my face.
I blinked for a moment when someone spoke behind me
"Excuse me, will you buy the painting?" She said and at the same time gave me a smile, I prostrated myself to her.
"Uhm, I just want to ask who made that painting?" I pretended to ask a question even though I was the one who made the painting
I noticed that she smiled looking at the painting
"Ms.Hallie is a famous young artist, I only know her by her name but I have never seen her face before" She said as if I was silent and just looked at her seriously
"even though I can't see her face, her paintings are my only inspiration why I tried to study Fine arts" She added which made me smile, it's just funny to think that there are people like her who are inspired by my works.
"if Ms.Hallie hears that, I know she will be happy when she sees you" I said with a smile that silenced her and she seemed surprised by what I said
" Do you know Ms. Hallie?" She asked
"No," I answered quickly
She immediately nodded and looked at the painting again.
"By the way Ma'am, are you going to buy this?" She asked
"Yes, can I see the prize?" I said I noticed that she was looking for something
" Are you okay?"
"Oh, just a moment, I'll take it, it looks like I forgot to bring it," she said shyly
"take it first, I'm not leaving yet" I said after I said that, she immediately left next to me when she left, I glanced at my painting.
I never thought that I would buy my own painting and I smiled because of what I thought.
After a few minutes, I turned to the staff as she ran towards me.
She was panting and stopped in front of me. I noticed that she was carrying a small paper.
"Ma'am, I'm sorry, but someone has already bought that painting" She said with an apology, I smiled at her.
"it's okay, there are many more paintings here, I can look at others" I replied with a smile, it seemed as if she had become quiet and was staring at me silently
I looked at her in wonder
"Why? do I have dirt on my face?" I asked her in surprise, she quickly shook her head
"Ma'am, you are very kind, can I know your name so that if you want a painting, we can contact you" She said which surprised me
I can't think right whether to say my name or not
I was about to speak when someone called her, another staff member, she looked at it and waved at the same time
"I'm sorry, it looks like I have to leave you here first" She said
"No problem" I said as she left and I was left here again just quietly looking at my painting
I forgot to ask who bought my painting.
Who bought this painting? a question now playing in my mind.
I silently observed the beauty of my painting and smiled at the same time.
"You are so beautiful to look at" I said with a smile while staring at the painting
If only Mom were alive, I know she would be happy for me because like her, I am now a famous and well-known artist.
She is already in heaven and I know she is just watching over me and watching me from above. I miss you Mom. I miss you so much.
Meanwhile
Park Sunghoon POV
Vendough Art Gallery
I'm touring the entire art gallery alone here in Canada, Jay isn't next to me he's in the VIP room, he's resting every time I pass by, the paintings are so beautiful and the others seem mysterious, I know there are meanings behind these paintings, and because it is a Vendough Art Gallery famous because there are many famous artists whose paintings are placed here
Jay and I were the only two here, there were no other members, we really came here on purpose so that Jay could see the painting he liked here that caught his eyes. is he serious
I quietly observed the paintings on the wall of this large art gallery until my eyes caught a painting that seemed to be alone on a wall. I think I liked that painting.
I thought about buying it
I was just walking when I met a staff member
I immediately stopped her, she was surprised to look at me.
"OMG PARK SUNGHOON" Her eyes widened as she looked at me, she was about to scream when I suddenly disobeyed her, maybe it would get even worse if she screamed, we just disguised ourselves
"can I take a picture with you, just one" Her suggestion, I hesitated to answer her.
"Yeah, sure later" I answered
"You're so handsome and you're so tall, Park Sunghoon"She tried not to scream
"Can I know if anyone has bought that painting and who is the artist?" I said and pointed to the painting on a wall not far away. She followed what I pointed to
" Nothing yet, but someone wants to buy it now, the woman standing in front of that painting would have bought it too, She's Ms. Hallie Kim the artist of that painting she's also a famous artist, only known by her name, but no one has seen her face yet. It's mysterious," said the staff of this art gallery
"Do you have another painting similar to that one?" I immediately asked her shaking her head
"As far as I know, there is no one left alone," She replied
"but you can buy that, maybe there's still a painting left like that, that hasn't been placed here yet" she continued
"Are you sure" I said, she nodded and smiled at the same time.
"okay! then I will buy that" I said with a smile.
"I'll leave you here for now, I'll just get the record of the painting and details" She said and left in front of me
I looked at that painting and noticed a woman standing in front of the painting. She was wearing a green dress, her hair was long, I couldn't see her face because her back was turned, she was standing there for almost a minute.
I just stared at that painting seriously even though it was a little far away
I thought of the name of the artist of that painting.
"Hallie Kim " looks familiar like I've heard that name before I can't remember where.
