"Thank you again! Tell you friends!" I yell as the girl walks away smiling.

After last night, I was able to restock on everything and re-create everything in a breeze. Tons of people have come to visit me at my stand just to say hi, or to give me a gift, or to spend all their money on my art.

One visiter said they were having an art show today and that I should attend, of course I got all excited and decided to dress up as a character from Madoka Magica.

Adding to selling art, and going to the art show, I was attending a Madoka Magica panel.

I was super excited to attend and be part of my first panel. There were supposed to be many people attending and tons of funny jokes.

And maybe a little someone told me Sebastian would come during tea time. . .

Anyways, I had Kito close up the shop as I swung my way towards the elevator. As I was waiting a few people questioned my condition but I shrugged it off.

When I made it to the room my fellow cosplayers and online friends greeted me with big smiles. I sat down at the table centered in the middle of the room and watched as some people filled up the room.

-_-_-_-_-_

After the convention was over I decided I wanted to talk to Kito about my future. I had finally figured out what I want to do with my life.

"Kito?" I yelled hoping he would find me in my work space.

"Yeah Mariya?" He yelled back, his foot steps getting closer to where I was sitting.

"I wanted to talk to you about something, something important," I said while I finished a drawing and setting it on a rack to dry before putting it in an envelope and sending it away.

"Is everything okay?"

"Yeah, everything is fine Kito. It's just that I've figured out what I want to do with my life," I said with a smile.

"And what is that?"

"I don't want to go to college or anything. I want to take my chances at being a famous artist and I want to be apart of a TV series that came to me today after the convention ended and you were packing up. They said I would be perfect for a part in it and well, I said yes. . ." I huffed out nervously to Kito.

All I got was a smile, a humongous hug and "do what you want, if it'll make you happy, go for it my love." And then a big kiss before he left me to my own devises.

I opened up my Email on my laptop and started to reply to the e-mail about the acting position. I typed excitedly as I said I agreed to do it and how I was hoping to have a great time and hoping to start a partly new life.

After hitting send I went back to making my commissions for fans before falling asleep at my desk for the millionth time that month.
