while you were out

before

things were never awkward between them

"an-dee"

she would sing out his name, making sure he didn't wander off too far

"what?"

andy's voice would always sound slightly annoyed, but it was just a pretend annoyed

"look at the illustrations"

she pointed her finger to clifford, buying fruit

"i wish i can draw like that"

a breath of sadness over came her

it hurt andy seeing his friend like that, so he said out of the blue

"i can draw you a picture?"

he suggested, and a smile grew on her face

"of course!"

he picked up a pencil, and a piece of paper and started drawing

mia watched him, amazed

when he is done, his clifford looks more like a mix between a shruken chihuahua and a pig

although she doesn't know that they both have non-existent art skills yet, but she was so happy

"this is so nice! thank you so much, andy!"
