The room was silent except for the sound of the clock ticking. Inside the room was a man, sitting behind his desk, frustrated and awaiting something or someone. Finally, the sound door opening broke the silence. The looked up to another man enter the room. "Finally, you're here! Do you know how long you took Reon?!" The man yelled out. Reon kept quite and took a seat in front of the desk. His head hung down while his black hair covered his face. "You've been acting strange lately." The man began. "You've been working less. If you keep this up you'll be jobless." The man explained. Reon finally looked up, revealing his red eyes, only to say "Yes sir..." After awhile of the man going on and on about Reon's behavior, he could finally leave and go home. As soon as he set foot in his house, he went to his art room without hesitation. It was cold and dark, but it was filled with beautiful paintings. There was one unfinished painting that stood out from the others. Reon grabbed a paintbrush gracefully stroked it onto the painting. Seconds, minutes, hours, who knows how much time passed by before his finale stroke. He stood still for awhile to admire his masterpiece. It was a beautiful girl with long pink hair and shinning sapphire eyes. Se was surrounded by radiant and beautiful flowers. The colors beautifully contrasted with her black dress. She had a smile that was so bright it could warm the hearts of even the most vile and cold criminals. It was perfect. "What should I name you?" Reon thought for awhile before finally deciding. "I'll name you Leia." He said, smiling. He took a few moments to admire it again before he began to walk towards the door. Before he opened the door, he shoot a smile a 'Leia' then left to let his masterpiece dry. The next morning he got up and got ready. Before he left he visited his art room to check on Leia. He smiled at her warmly and began to speak, "Goodbye Leia. I'm going to work."

I love you...

Reon left his home and went to work, happier than the gloomy and depressed way he's been acting lately.

I'll wait for you...

He thought of Leia all day as he did his work. In his spare time he'd draw pictures of 'her'. 'She' was the reason he wanted he wanted to get through his day as fast as he could. As soon as he was finished with his work, he grabbed all his stuff and ran for it. He impatiently rushed home and ran to his art room. He panted a little and smiled a little and smiled. To Reon, it felt like Leia was smiling only for him and that she was delighted to see him, even though she always had the same expression. "Hey Leia, I'm home." He began.

Welcome back dear.

"I missed you a lot. I thought of you all day."

So did I.

Reon just stood there, starring at her. He couldn't keep his eyes off her. He enjoyed every second of looking at his beautiful Leia. He loved everything about her. In his eyes, she was perfect and nothing was going to change that. To him, she was much more than just a painting. Realizing that he was standing there for far too long. He went down stairs to make himself dinner. After eating he went upstairs to tell Leia goodnight, then he went to sleep. That night he dreamed about Leia. They where in a beautiful meadow filled with lovely and colorful flowers, just like the one in Leia's painting. They talked and laughed throughout the wonderful dream. Reon would tell Leia about his day and she'd listen carefully. Reon was in heaven, but like all dreams, this one had to come to an end too.
