Chapitre 40: Chapter 40

"Yes Sir, just a finishing touch!" Carlos answered.

"Very good!"

A few more hours passed and the four finished painting almost at the same time.

Gregorio stood up to look at their painting. He looked at Carlos first.

“Beautiful,” said the artist. Carlos’s masterpiece is buildings, it's beautifully colored.

The next thing he looked at was Maggie's painting.

"Even if you don't like drawing and painting, but you've still made a beautiful masterpiece." Gregorio praises Maggie. The ocean is the one she painted, there is a boat in the middle of the sea.

"Thank you, Sir," Maggie was pleased with that compliment to her by the artist.

Next, he looked at Alyssa's painting. It was a stream and there were three women doing laundry, their faces looked happy.

"Wow, I can say that you are already a great artist Alyssa." He smiled proudly at Alyssa. He held out his right hand to shake hands with her.

Alyssa hesitated to shake hands with the artist. She just stared at his hand.
