Carina had always enjoyed painting and drawing, but had never had the time or opportunity to take lessons.
When she finally finished university and signed her contract with the 9 to 5 job, she treated herself to enrolling in art school to have an outlet from the stress of her job.
She entered the building and followed the 'registration' signs. As she entered the room, her eyes fell on the most beautiful woman she had ever seen.
When Carina walked in, the blonde looked up at her and the first thing she noticed was her bright ocean blue colored eyes.
She had short blonde hair that reached just above her shoulders and her fitted t-shirt made her muscular arms visible.
Carina swallowed deeply, her body could no longer move, she felt numb by the beauty of that woman.
She had never experienced anything like this with anyone and certainly not with a woman.
Why did she suddenly feel this way around a woman? She was so intrigued by her that she even became shy, which was not something Carina Deluca normally became.
Women don't fall for women, she had always learned that in her home country.
A relationship is only allowed between a man and a woman.
Her parents taught her that one day she would find her prince charming, marry him, have children and grow old happily together.
But Carina was different from them, she didn't care what they told her.
She had seen her brother struggle so hard to be who he was, to be able to love the boy he fell in love with.
He moved to America and he was one of the reasons she moved here to.
She was the only person he had when he came out and that had made their bond even stronger.
She was so proud of him for daring to do that and that he and Giovanni had been a perfectly happy couple for 8 years now.
“Hi there, are you here to sign up for classes?”
The question pulled her out of her lost thoughts.
"Uh-Si, I mean yes Ma''am."
"Please, you don't have to call me that, you can say Maya" the woman winked at her and held out her hand to shake it.
"Oh yes, hello M-uh Maya. My name is C-Carina."
'Why do I stutter, just act normal' Carina thought to herself but Maya found it secretly very cute the shy stuttering pretty woman in front of her.
“Oowh, I love your accent, where are you from?” she said, still holding her hand.
“I was born and raised in Italy, but when I chose to study veterinary medicine and they gave me the opportunity to do an internship abroad here, I grabbed it with both hands. And since moving here I have lost my heart to this beautiful city."
"I can't believe this city would be more beautiful than the ones in Italy, but I'm glad you made that choice."
She winked again with a smile and Carina smiled back shyly. Releasing her hand, she delicately caressed Carina's fingers with her own.
"Tell me, what do you have in mind?
We have: drawing, painting, clay, pottery, flower arranging,...
Wait, if I were to guess, I would think of flower arranging? Or with your slender hands and graceful long fingers, pottery? "
