(Elizabeth's point of view)
Today is my art show. I'm nervous. Cindy the art director called me one of her artist dropped out. Instead of the one piece I am now having six pieces. I took my time as much as I could selected them. I have three paintings, two sculptures, and one graffiti piece. Jason and Francis have been helping me. I was excited to have people see my work. This could lead to bigger things. I also was worried no one would buy my pieces. What if I'm not as good as I think I am.
I arrived really early to the art gallery. Cindy was shocked to see me. She showed me to the area that would be mine. She was very impressed with all my pieces. She said I would probably sale everything tonight. She asked me if she could reprice my pieces. I agreed thinking I had priced to high.
I looked at the new prices they were double what I had put. She assured my work was worth every penny. I saw Jason and Francis had finished unpacking. I set up all my pieces. I smiled at Jason. We all headed home to get dressed for tonight. I wasn't sure what to wear. Carly suggested a deep purple dress. It was beautiful. Jason gave me a locket. It had pictures of us in it.
When we arrived back at the gallery I met the other artist. They all compliment my pieces. Their work was amazing. I wasn't sure my work would even get looked at. Jason stood with me until people started coming in.
I saw Sonny and Carly come in. Sonny was trying to buy my work. I refused and told him I would create a piece for him. Monica and Alan arrived next with Nikalos and Emily right be hide them. Nikalos too tried to buy pieces. Then I saw Cindy rushing towards me.
"You've made your first sell and the show has just began." Cindy said. "Who bought a piece?" I asked hoping it wasn't Sonny, Nikalos, or Monica and Alan. "Her name is Mrs. Anderson. She bought your painting of the two men and one woman." She said. "Mrs. Anderson this is the artist Elizabeth Morgan." Cindy said as I shook her hand. "It is nice to meet you Mrs. Morgan." "You can call me Elizabeth and thank you so much." I said. "You can call me Renee and I was wondering if you'd be interested in doing a larger painting for my living room as well?" She asked me. "Oh yes I would love to. What are you thinking?" I asked. "I'll leave the artistic part to you. I would like it to have red and gold in it." She answered. "Here is my card." I said to her. "I will pay you five times what I paid for this painting. Elizabeth you will be worth much more than that one day. Trust me my dear I know art." She said as I nodded in amazement.
My sculpture of Jason sold next. They wouldn't tell me who bought it. I had my ideas though. My other sculpture was bought by another artist. I was beyond honored. The night seemed to be going by so quickly. Cindy had already asked me to do another show in six weeks.
At the end of the night I only had one painting left. Jason begged to buy it. I was about to agree when Cindy appeared. She said my last piece had sold. I asked who had bought it. She smiled and said she'll be over soon. I nodded.
Then I saw my Grams. I ran to her. She had bought my last piece. She appologized for being late. I couldn't believe it. I hugged her closely. Jason came over and joined us. Grams said she had a huge surprise for me. We hurried to clean up. I went to get my money. I was shocked when Cindy handed me a check for 5000 dollars. She thanked me.
When we arrived at the pent house Sarah and Steven jumped out. I hugged them both. Grams said they were all moving back. I was so happy.
(A month later)
"Jason are you sure you didn't buy the sculpture of yourself?" I asked. "Elizabeth I didn't buy it." He promised for the millionth time. "Who bought it then?" I asked. "I don't know know." He answered. "I thought it was you and then Carly. I even thought Emily or even Monica bought it.. Don't you think it's strange that they didn't want me to know." I said. "I don't know but Grandmother is excepting us for tea. And since you've been working we haven't seen her in a while." Jason said. "I know I'm sorry." I said.
When we walked in Reginald greeted us. I saw Edward he smiled strangely at me. Jason held me close and starred him down. A second later Lila arrived. We went into the living room. I gasped. Jason yelled. There it was my sculpture of Jason.
"What in the hell?" Jason asked as Edward entered. "Why do you have this?" I asked. "Well I bought this sculpture of my grandson done by his beautiful wife for my beautiful wife." Edward said. "I'm sorry Dears I told Edward this would upset you. Would you like it back?" Lila asked. "I don't know I mean well. Jason?" I said. "No Grandmother if you want it you should have it." Jason said with a sigh. "Let me give you your money back." I said. "No dear you earned that. Jason would you like me to move it to my private quarters?" Lila asked. "If you don't mind." Jason replied.
