oh sure

you want to meet in person or call or something?

[curvaceous]

Maybe call or email? How does that sound?

We can meet up later for something else more fun haha

[legendofthelion]

yeah whatever you're comfortable with

I can tell you what I saw if you want to know. I think you deserve that

[curvaceous]

Haha...actually... I was going to offer the same to you. I owe it to you, as your friend.

You can go first?

[legendofthelion]

okay

I saw a lady you were showing a drawing to. she said it was nice and if you wanted to do art she'd get you lessons

and that you shouldn't settle for anything and work harder until you can't get any better

I didn't know you were an artist. I guess we never really talked about it

[curvaceous]

I see... Yeah, that was probably my mom. I was pretty into it when I was younger, but that was pretty much ruined for me because of her. That's why I never brought it up. I haven't spoken to her or the rest of my family in years.

From my end, I saw that you caught your dad in the middle of doing something illegal. You were disappointed in him. Furious, actually. And...I felt your resolve to do the right thing, and treat people better than he did.

Idk how to explain this, but feeling your resolve was really eye-opening in a lot of ways. It was kind of inspiring tbh. Made me realize how lucky I was to know someone like you.

[Via text, Kara can't see how Dehya cringes.]

oh you saw that

I left the house that morning and didn't look back. my old man was involved in some real nasty stuff

when I was little he'd always tell me stories about knights saving princesses and silly things like that so finding out he didn't really believe in all that stuff he taught me was a lot

you really thought it was inspiring?

[curvaceous]

I did. Not everyone would take that as an opportunity to do better. Some may use it as a reason to become cynical and jaded, but you didn't. I think there's a lot of cool things that can be said about that :) It shouldn't have happened in the first place of course but...you know what I mean

Parents are really something else, aren't they? Lol.

I wish I didn't see that, because it's your business, not mine. But I'm just glad you got out of a shitty situation, in the way that you did.

[legendofthelion]

that's really nice of you to say

the truth is he was never a bad dad to me. I just couldn't accept that we were surviving off other people's pain

do you ever want to draw again?

[curvaceous]

I think that's reason enough to leave. That's not setting a good example for your child, and as a person...yeah, I don't blame you for not wanting to associate with that lol.

And...honestly, not really. I think that's why I'm super into fashion. I can channel my aesthetic side that way haha :D I'd like to be able to someday, but the memories are too much to handle right now.

[legendofthelion]

well I don't know anyone more fashionable than you so I'd say you're doing really well there!

but I hope you get to take those things back for yourself one day

it seems like a waste to let other people take your spark like that

[curvaceous]

Haha...you're right about that, I think. Sadly, I don't have the strength I need to overcome it. ... Not right now, anyway.

But thanks for being real with me, Dehya.

That's something I think I've always admired about you. :)

[legendofthelion]

anytime

and chin up you're way stronger than you give yourself credit for

:)
