It was a rainy morning, Chris can feel the cool wind. It was really a slow day. Half of the students was not present for class, Its highschool, You'll always find a way to get a nice rest.

Chris was on his secret spot, It was on the deep side of the library. He didn't know that Marie was there also. She was a quiet girl, No one really knows her story.

"Uhm, Hey" Chris started off, Trying his best not to choke

"Hi? How's your head?" She smiled, Making him nervous.

"Its alright now, What are you doing here? Alone?" He asked, Curious why a Famous schoolgirl alone in the library

"They're noisy, I just wanted a quiet atmosphere" She turned her back on him and continued her...painting?

"You could paint, What are you painting?" He looked at the canvas...

She pointed the window with her brush...He turned his head to see a beautiful view...

It showed how simple nature was, It took his breath away. It showed the evidence of rain, The trees simple strong stand even though...It withering

"Why are you painting that?"

"I just wanted to help..." She looked at him

"Help?" His questions made her stand

She walked to her bag and took something from it...It was a small picture album... She smiled and opened it for him

It showed many different faces, Some he knew, Some he saw, And the rest was questions for him. He was dumbstrucked, He didn't find the answer to his question. He looked at her with curiosity

"I want to help them" She raised her eyebrow

"But they looked like they didn't need help" He pointed to the smiling faces in the picture

"They have...different stories behind their smiles" Her mood became different

"What do you mean?"

She was quiet for a bit and tried to smile

"Behind every happy smile is a sad story...They have problems, But no one wants to help them..." She started

"But everyone has problems" Chris looked at the pictures

"But not as deep as theirs...Some consists of family, Some their own personality"

"Then why paint?"

"The withered tree symbolizes them...Even though they have problems...They still tend to help others...They still tend to stay strong and alive..." She sat next to the window

He realizes now...All the stories behind...He looked back at the album and was shock to see Marie's picture in the album. She's different...

Chris stood up, Walked and sat next to her. They looked at the view. Chris couldn't help himself but to look at her. He saw an innocent eyes and angelic smile, He didn't know whats best

"You'll help them, You'll change their lives"

But she didn't know, She already changed somebody's life, It was Chris'
