The sun was coming over the horizon before I was done with my painting. I had worked all night before but nothing like this. I was so exhausted I had poured all my thoughts and feelings into this one painting. It was all swirls of different colors that was supposed to represent both my confusion and the warm feeling that came up inside of me when I was around Savius.
When I showed it to people in the house they all told me they saw something different. One told me she saw a beautiful sunset. Others saw a loved one or one of their favorite places. I suppose when there are just feelings put into a painting everyone sees there own out of loss or yearning.
But no one saw what I saw. I saw an outline of a couple. Inside the outline was a beautiful light but outside everything was faded gray. The first time I had saw it, I had realized it was me and Savius. It was to embarrassing to tell anyone. So I've decided never to tell a single soul. I'm going to take the picture to the Picnic and hope Savius is there. If he is I'll ask him what he thinks it is.
Then I'll take it to the painter and see if he thinks some other of my drawings can sell. Because I'll never let this one go.
I quickly went up stairs and changed into some holey jeans and a comfortable T-Shirt. I checked to make sure that the blanket was still in the basket and headed down stairs with my painting in hand. I grabbed sandwiches from the kitchen and stuck them in my basket along with a few other things. I snuck out before my mom could find me. I reached my tree a little earlier then I usually do and quickly put down the blanket and grabbed my drawing. I looked at it again watching all the nonsense swirls slowly create the image I had been seeing since I had first looked at the finished project. I closed my eyes and settled down to wait for Abby and Savius.
