Chapitre 5: Empty canvas
The night of the ball was fast approaching, and Emily hadn't come up with what to wear yet. She heard the doorbell ring. She went to answer the call, and it was a dispatch rider with a package from James. In it was a note that read, "To the nicest girl in the world, the prettiest artist to brave the earth, I would love you to accompany me tomorrow, be my queen, and I'll be your king." This is just a little gift from me to you. Wear it for me, and I'll be so glad. There's a little card in there; it's to the best salon in town. I've booked an appointment for you; don't be late. I'll pick you up at 6 p.m., James."Emily felt overwhelmed by the fact that she was falling slowly in love with James, and he felt it too. She didn't know how to let him know she was leaving him; she kept it a secret so she wouldn't ruin the night. Emily raced to her room to try on her dress, and it fitted perfectly. It was a multicolored ball dress with glitter that could light up the whole room. A crown was in there too, and a very elegant glass sandal heel was all in the box. She tried them all on and hung them in anticipation of the ball the next day.
The long-awaited school hall finally arrived, and it was a night James and Emily will remember forever. The big event was not only a celebration of their artistic achievements but also an opportunity to make a mark on the social scene.
The ballroom was decorated with very sparkling chandeliers that lit up the whole room, and the soft sounds of classical music filled the air as students elegantly danced across the well-polished floor. James and Emily turned part of the event into an art gallery where they displayed their latest creations for their peers to admire.
Their art had improved considerably since their school days, and it was clear that they were no longer the adversaries that had once clashed in the halls of Phillips Exeter Academy. Instead, they became a dynamic artistic duo, their work a testament to their shared journey and steadfast friendship.
As the students interacted and admired the artwork on display, James and Emily felt a sense of pride and accomplishment. Their art transcended the boundaries of their school and resonated with a wider audience. They discovered that true art was not based on competition but on collaboration, and their partnership allowed them to create works that touched those who looked at them.
In the middle of the art exhibition, another event took place: the election of the prom queen and king. Unknown to James, Emily secretly entered their names into the contest. His wish was to make this night even more memorable by winning the title together.
The atmosphere was filled with excitement as students voted for prom queen and prom king. James and Emily's popularity, both due to their artistic talent and genuine personalities, has garnered them a devoted following. The tension in the room continued to grow so much as the votes were read out. When the moment of the verdict arrived, it was greeted with surprises and applause. James and Emily were crowned prom king and prom queen, a testament to the influence they had on their peers and the genuine love their classmates showed them.
On stage, when they received their crowns and shared the dance, James felt complete. It was a night of triumph, a celebration of their artistic achievements, and a recognition of a friendship that blossomed against all odds.
James didn't know that was the very last time he would see Emily. As night fell and the ballroom emptied, Emily's secret weighed heavily on her heart. Unknown to his friends, his family was in financial ruin and was forced to move to start over.
The morning after the prom, Emily left James a heartfelt note expressing her gratitude for their friendship and the unforgettable moments they shared. He explained the situation of his family and the necessity of their departure, hoping that one day they would meet again.
James woke up to the shocking news of Emily's sudden relocation and was shocked. He didn't have time to pick up his keys to drive as he ran to her house, but it was too late; they had already left. All that remained was the echo of their shared memories and the art they created together.
In the years that followed, James continued his passion for art, but there was always a void in Emily's friendship. He often thought of her, wondering where life had taken him and if they would ever meet again. He also had a little anger when he thought about her because he felt the way she left was wrong, and because of this, he hated her a little.
The story of James and Emily, two artists brought together by fate and bound by the love of art, took an unexpected turn. Their separation was a painful reminder that life can be unpredictable and that even the strongest bonds can be tested by circumstances.
But the art they created together lived on, a testament to their enduring friendship and the transformative power of creativity. And in the quiet moments of his studio, Jaime sometimes found solace in canvases bearing traces of their shared dreams, hoping against hope of a reunion with his dear friend.
