"But Joey, you know Papa won't let you go to a gym," Lianne's voice piped up suddenly.
Joseph's face fell.
That's right. He had forgotten it.
"How about this?" Sayuri suggested.
Then, pointing at Lianne's drawing, she asked, "May I?"
Lianne bit her bottom lip, hesitant as she didn't like people looking at her pictures that she drew. She loved doing it but didn't have the confidence to have others view it.
Sayuri, as if guessing what was on her mind (though she already knew this from Kyle), said, "No matter what, you have talent, you know? I just want to show you something, if you allow me to draw on yours."
Lianne gulped and slowly handed her the sketchbook she had.
Sayuri observed the drawing intently, then around her.
"This is very well drawn," Sayuri said, "You have the details down quite accurately. The only problem is that you have difficulty with dimensions, right?"
