STELLAR
A writer once said that art enables us to find ourselves and lose ourselves at the same time and I never knew that it could happen to me all at once
I am now walking at the street art festival where Cremeliana is one of the featured artists, showcasing and selling her artworks
And as I approach the center and heart of the festival, I felt the urge to retreat
What if this is not a good idea?
Ever since I made my life-altering decision to shift not only my course but as well as my life path. I deliberately kept myself away from the world of arts no matter how challenging it was. Because I have Creme in my life and she is a walking art herself
But I did my best and still doing the very best I can not to associate myself further when it comes to arts
I'm only here because I need to support my bestfriend
Yes! the reason I am here is for Cremeliana. That is all!
Just keep walking Stellar
My eyes can't help but be overwhelmed by the bunch of beautiful artworks that are painted in different styles and the vibe of the place made everything extra captivating
And just before I get lost looking for Creme, I finally saw her red gingered hair!
Her hair made it easy-peasy finding her in crowd and I am not even complaining
I made my way closer to her place and just enough to see her and her artworks
She is busy explaining specific details about her masterpiece
And I stood quietly at the corner while studying her artwork...trying to see what lies behind
What does this painting make me feel? or what does it want me to feel?
I don't know but looking at it, it feels like I am swimming in an ocean, not afraid just calm
"In this abstract painting, we are all free to interpret its meaning in our own way. However, a profound message that came to me upon completing this abstract is this idiom that says 'to keep our heads above the water'"
She exclaimed smilinglyOhh
Yes, that's what it is.
"This artwork, serves as a reminder to keep swimming no matter how small or big the waves of life are. We all need to ride the tide; we are stronger than those difficulties and we should keep that in mind"
That was deep
"And we should save ourselves from our own negative thoughts, don't let your thoughts drown you"
And I hope it is as easy as that
"Again, we should keep our heads above the water as what this..."
her eyes widen upon noticing my presence"a—as what this artwork portrays"
Surprise Cremeliana!
She ended her speech and next thing I knew is she's shaking my shoulders excitedly and exaggeratedly ha-ha
"OMG!! STELLA ROBERT KATIGBAK!!"
"Is this real? you are here?!"
she even pinched my cheeks

Hey, Look Up!
Fiksi Umum"They say, 'bloom wherever you are planted,' but what if I need to go somewhere else in order to bloom into the kind of flower I am meant to be all along?" she mumbles under the dark sky. This is not just a love story, but A Love Story.
