"Oh, a cat sorry haha hello Barry, I'm Isa" She introduced herself,

"HAHA, you look dumb," Eve quip.

"What! How could you say that to me, Eve…" Isa asks, stunned.

"But I can do so?"

"Yeah, you're cruel." They both laugh,

"Oh, how do you meet Barry?"

"Oh, my grandpa gift him to me,"

"That is so sweet,"

"What is your grandpa's name?"

"His name is Alex John Baron Drew,"

"Oh, so manly,"

"Yeah, but he died after my 20 birthday,"

"Oh, that hem! Sorry."

"No, don't worry is fine. I'm already over it."

"Glad to hear that you're strong and brave,"

"Thank you, but I'm not,"

"If you say so,"

"Eve, can I move a bit?"

"No, you can't,"

"But I feel exhausted,"

"No one is going to move." Isa feels dreadful.

"How can you do this to me? I thought you're going to teach me how to paint, but you torture me instead,"

"I didn't promise,"

"How can you be so straightforward?"

"Is just the way I am,"

"Ah yeah, right…"

"Eve,"

"Yes,"

"Can you paint and draw my favorite flower next?"

"Yes, anything for you" Eve smiles at her, Isa cheer full of joy.

"YAS!" Eve laughs a little,

"You're such a cheerful girl, ha,"

"Yes, I am cause I'm free,"

"Yeah, right? You're free. You made it sound like so easy to be free, you know,"

"Is easy though,"

"How you made yourself free?"

"You want to know how?"

"Yes, I do,"

"I'll show you next time,"

"Really?"

"Yes, are you in for it?"

"Yes, I am," Eve answer full of confidence,

"Isa, I see you again tomorrow night, okay? Same place and tomorrow I promise I will teach you how to paint after we visit our school, okay?" Evelyn wave goodbye to Isa while smiling,

"Okay, you and Barry get home." Isa waved back smiling,

"I love her cat," EB shows up out of nowhere, and Isa flinches then got stiff like a rock in her place.

"The heck!" She shouts at EB, pissed off.

"Sorry, did I startle you?"

"No, you didn't," Isa sarcastic reply then EB laugh.

"Do you have fun today?" EB asks.

"Yes, I am, by the way. Where have you been? You disappear again. You promise me you won't disappear without my consent. Are you playing with me?" EB deep sigh,

"Sorry, I need to fertilize my dump,"

"Oh, th, that's very reasonable."

"Thank you," Isa laugh while EB blushed,

"*Sigh! * Please stop teasing me,"

"PFT! Sorry,"

"Stop laughing at me, please," EB beg, but Isa keeps showing a laughable face.

"Isa..." EB showed a threatening look.

"What? PFT,"

"*sigh*..." EB drop his mood so embarrassed,

"Sorry," Isa apologies,

"You never get scared of me, do you?" EB asks, and Isa shakes her head three times as a no, EB's mood drop more.

"Oh, come on, is not the end of the world you can still improve it *wink* *wonk*" Isa tease EB more,

"Improve them yourself," EB reply pissed off walk away from Isa.

"Hey, wait, okay, I'm sorry..." Isa run after him and when she catches up to EB, she immediately back hugs him,

"I'm sorry, okay? Please don't be mad at me..." Isa's worried voice ring in EB's ears, and it hurts him.

"Ha... okay," EB turns around and faces Isa, and hugs her back.

"You forgive me, right?" Isa asked for assurance.

"Yes, I forgive you" Isa hugs EB more tight, anxious.

"Do you still have something you want to do before your birthday?"

"Me?" Isa raises her head and looks at the sky, then smile,

"What is it?" EB asks,

"I have something I want to do, want to come?"

"Yes, I said. I won't leave you, right?" Isa nods and hugs EB back.
