He is a Nymphomaniac - Chapter 721
Ezra turned to look at the three of them who were still engaged in their own conversation, and had heard not a single thing of what she and Mia were speaking. She slapped her forehead walking close to them signalling the girl to do all the acting over again. “So Mia, why did you have this sudden interest in painting?” The girl this time spoke in a much louder tone making sure to catch Olive’s attention. She was asking in such an inquisitive tone, as if she did not know what the girl was going to reply.
“Well, the other day… I saw somebody painting something on the wall…And I simply loved how the man used his hands to express his feelings. It was then that I realised, how important it was to learn how to paint. ” Mia spoke this time in a more exaggerated tone, looking nervously at Olive. ”I have decided to learn paining from nothing but the best.’ The girl was speaking in such high and musical tone as if she was giving a world peace speech in Unite Nations.”
“Hmm… good idea. So have you found somebody?” Ezra asked in an enquiring manner heaving a sigh of relief, as the three of them had now stopped chatting and were looking at the two girls over hearing their discussion about art.
“Ah no! But I have told my assistant to find a good artist for me.” Mia sighed trying not to smirk as the boy was now finally looking at her in inquisitiveness.
“Oh! Olive is also an artist. I am sure he must know who the best artist is.” Ezra had now spoken the accurate words which punched Olive, just on the exact spot. Everybody knew how perceptive Olive was for his work. The boy really worked hard for his painting profession and he was simply the best at it.
“Oh yeah! How did I forget that?” Mia then turned to look at Olive. ”Oh Olive, you are standing right her. Hehe! I did not notice. By the way, do you know the best artists in the city? I have been meaning to learn painting and I totally suck at it. But I am sure, if I get to learn from the best one, then I will soon learn the art too.” Mia smiled trying to sound genuine.
Olive gaped at the girl in horror and Ezra ha now pursed her lips trying not to giggle. Not just Olive but even Shaiza and Sawyer were at the moment looking at the two girls in disbelief. They both were asking the unsurpassed artist in town, if he knew some good artists!
“Excuse me??”Olive looked at the two girls in surprise, entirely left stunned.
“Huh? Did we speak a foreign language?” Ezra smirked looking at the boy’s pale face as this was probably the worst question anybody could ask an artist.
“You are asking me who is the best artist in town? As if you both do not know I am the best in the entire Europe?” Olive raised his one eye brow looking at the two girls.
“Oh yeah. I have heard he is good. “Mia nodded her head in approval looking at Ezra.
“I don’t know I mean, of course people say that but let’s not be biased. I am sure there must be others better than him. Just because we love him does not mean he is the best,” Ezra shrugged her shoulders looking at the girl as if suggesting her very seriously.
Shaiza and Sawyer could not help but snigger at the two girls. They were now constantly hitting the boy’s ego and he was simply looking at the two girls dumb founded.
“Hmmm… you are right. But I really need somebody who can teach me seriously. And he has to be the best, not just anybody.” Mia waved her hand towards Olive as if rejecting him out rightly.
“Excuse me you girls shut up!! I am the best man in the whole Europe, ok. And if you have any doubts you can have a look at my work. You both always praised me for my work and your houses are full of my paintings. Now you are saying I am not the best!?” Olive slammed back at the girl in disbelief.
“No no! Of course you are best.” Mia smiled a bit and then patted the boys shoulder trying to cheer him up. ”I just mean that I need a teacher.”
“Why do you need a teacher when I am there to teach you? Why did you not ask me rather than asking Ezra? Do you think I am that bad at my work??’ Olive looked at the girl facing her directly. His eyes had wrinkled up again and his lips wide open in shock.
The girl’s heart skipped a beat once again at the close proximity with the boy. She could not help but once admire his good looks and his natural style ”No, no, when did I say that you are bad? Did I even say that once guys??” Mia turned to look at the other three people standing hearing the conversation between the two. Shaiza and Ezra nodded their heads in a no while Sawyer chuckled looking at Mia ”though you did not call him, but for the best man it is an insult to be not called the best. The man is surely best and you got to trust his talent.”
Olive heaved a deep sigh as at least somebody is rooting up for him. ”Thanks bro! At least somebody thinks I am good.” He turned to look at Mia, his eyes full of hurt. “You do not have to find a teacher. From tomorrow onwards I will teach you in my studio itself, every evening after you are done with your work. And I do not want no for an answer. It that clear?” Olive pointed his finger at the girl as if instructing her authoritatively.
“Ahhh! Alright then. It is done… you can paint me… I ..I mean you can teach me how to paint.” The girl fumbled hastily as she was not able to control her excitement. She was acting like she was doing a favour for Olive, but in her heart she was already doing multiple cartwheels of joy.
