Part 21
"How long have you been painting? How did you come up with the idea of having mermaids with silver tails as your subject?" Mao asked curiously.
"I started a few months ago. About the idea, maybe I was just fascinated about mermaids with silver tails. I think it's unique and extraordinary," Yurena replied.
"Few months ago? You're really talented and gifted. Other artists would take years before they were able to be really good and sell their works," he quipped. "Do you really believe in mermaids? Have you seen one?"
"When I say I believe, you will surely laugh at me," Yurena answered, pouting her pink lips. She's very cute in that gesture.
"Why should I do that? I don't make fun of other people's beliefs. What if I told you that I've seen a mermaid?" he asked, grinning.
"Really? Where?" asked Yurena.
"In your painting, a mysterious silver tailed mermaid," Mao answered smiling.
