unknown p.o.v.

the next day

i was walking home from school through an alley. i was looking at my phone and i clumsily ran into a trash can and some trash spilled out. i couldn't just leave the trash there so i walked over to the pile and started to pick it up. i then found her painting along with all the garbage.

it was a beautiful portrait of a girl, that looked a lot like her. except in the painting she was frowning with gray dull eyes.

why would she throw it away? she was so happy about the contest a few days ago.

i decided to take the painting because it was just too beautiful to leave.

maybe it was just because it was of her.

but i always thought her smile was prettier even though no one has seen it in a while.
