"Why are you late today?"
"Uncle Jay was looking for something! It took forever!"
My gaze shifted to Jay, standing off to the side.
He stepped forward and handed me a folder—contest registration forms.
"I'm not interested," I said coldly, cutting him off before he could speak. "Why do you keep pushing me to enter these competitions?"

I said nothing.
He sighed, his tone softening. "Painting is your passion, isn't it? The people from your past can't destroy that love—only you can, by giving it up."
