It's going to be a busy day for me today so I prepared the photos for this story yesterday so I could get them up this morning and still have time to do my other things. Hope you enjoy this newest chapter of "House of Pullip". :D
Chapter 285: Inner Soul
*Taryn and Felix are walking home together from “The Sweet Shoppe”*
Taryn: Thanks for waiting and walking home with me.
Felix: No problem.
Taryn: It’s nice to have company.
Felix: Yeah.
Taryn: So…I was thinking about the last time we talked…you like to write music but you don’t like working as a DJ.
Felix: Yeah…
Taryn: Why don’t you quit your job and trying composing for a living?
Felix: How do you do that?
Taryn: Do what?
Felix: How do you know this stuff? We just met but you’ve already figured out that I want to quit my job and I want to be a composer. I’m just…I don’t know…
Taryn: Maybe you could, you know, show what you’ve already written to someone who could advise you?
Felix: Oh…yeah…that’s the part I don’t know about.
Taryn: Oh…I understand. Sometimes I draw for fun in my free time but I don’t like to show it to other people either. What if I’m no good?
Felix: You’re an artist?
Taryn: No, my drawings are more like designs…for interiors, that kind of thing.
Felix: Still, I’d call that art.
Taryn: Music is art too, you know.
Felix: Yeah, I suppose.
Taryn: But that’s the thing about art, it’s like exposing your inner soul. You don’t want to show it to just anyone, especially if all their going to do is rip it apart.
Felix: Yeah…I never thought about it like that, but you’re right.
Taryn: Exposing your soul isn’t easy; I don’t like to do it either so I really can’t blame you for hesitating.
Felix: Do you want to be a designer?
Taryn: *smiles* Not really, I love working at “The Sweet Shoppe”.
Felix: You could help out with designs there…?
Taryn: Now who’s the perceptive one! I was thinking of that. I’d love to make some suggestions but I don’t know if my boss is open to those kinds of ideas. It’s not really in my job description.
Felix: What’s the worse thing that could happen? She might say no. So what?
Taryn: Yeah…yeah, that’s no big deal. She might say no, but it’s not like she would fire me.
Felix: Exactly, you don’t have anything to lose.
Taryn: I don’t really want to be a designer though; to me it’s just for fun.
Felix: You never know, you might be good at it.
Taryn: Sometimes my inner soul is best kept to myself.
*Felix smiles*
Taryn: But it’s okay to let some people see it sometimes…if you are brave enough.
Felix: I get your point…thanks.
Taryn: *shrugs* Anytime.
Felix: Well, here we are…but I’ve got to get going to work now.
Taryn: Yeah, it was really nice talking to you though. Maybe we can do it again sometime…?
Felix: Sure, that would be nice.
*Taryn smiles to herself as she watches Felix walk away*
To be continued...
Yeah...Taryn likes Felix, I won't make a secret of that. How Felix feels about her though is another matter, I don't even know that myself. All I know is his mind is still on Ivy and he's hoping Ivy will come around soon and give him another chance. Taryn doesn't know about Ivy, all she knows is Felix doesn't have a girlfriend...he told her that himself.
I also took this photo of Felix and Taryn together:
They are just friends, I swear...but there is no denying they have some...chemistry. I admit I wanted to see how they would look together, but I just posed them friendly, there's no romance about it.
I love Taryn though. I adore her! She's turning into one of my favorite dolls. I'm so glad I bought her. :D
