Tuesday - Exspressing Feeling

ROMANCE

Drawing is a way of expressing feelings, joy, sadness, fear, love.

You can pour all your imagination, desires, ideals and hopes into a drawing.

You can draw your strong and beautiful image even though the reality is not like that.

You can draw a beautiful and peaceful world, making people feel that it is indeed the world they live in even though it is full of war and ignorance.

You can draw yourself with the person you love, holding hands, laughing together, sitting together in the park, going to the playground, even though in reality you are still alone until now.

Gook continued to scratch her pencil on the paper suppressing her loneliness and anxiety, the class ended two hours ago, but Gook did not move from her seat, she missed her best friend or her loved one. It has been three days since Viet took permission from his campus because he had to go with his parents abroad. Goot was both homesick and sad, because she couldn't contact Viet at all, and Viet hadn't sent any messages for three days.

Slowly tears came out of Goot's eyes, but she did not stop her strokes.

In the midst of her tears, suddenly there was a new message notification from Goot's cellphone, she quickly opened the message which turned out to be from Viet.

"Viet asshole, you just sent a message now, see how I beat you up when you come back."

There were no words sent, only a picture message. Goot downloaded the message and was surprised when she saw the picture, because it was Viet's hand-drawn picture of Goot running with open arms, a smile, and teardrops, like she was going to meet someone she hadn't seen in a long time.

Reflexively, Goot looked around for Viet, and her eyes stopped on the eyes of a handsome man who was looking back at her from under a tree.

Goot immediately ran down, strangely even though she was smiling but her eyes were wet, her hands were open so wide, as if she wanted to capture all the love and affection that would be given to her.

Pictures can represent feelings, pictures can express feelings, pictures can depict what has passed, what is seen in the present, and wishful thinking about the future.
