UNUSUAL GALLERY IN PENGADEGAN
Barbara Austen was a
student of The Pengadegan Art School near STBA LIA. She was a really young
talented painter. Everything that she drew look real. She had her own gallery
in front of her school and she also lived there because she did not have enough
money to buy or even rent a house. She lived alone because her parents had
already passed away when she was 10 and she was the only child in her family.
She grew up to be the most mature and independent woman in her age (she was
still 18 actually). She fulfilled
her need by make a picture of someone
and then she sell it, but there was one picture that
she never wanted people to buy it, no matter how much money she would get, she
never wanted to sell it. It was the picture of Fredrick Clark.
Fredrick Clark was certainly
wonderfully handsome, with his finely-curved scarlet lips, his frank blue eyes,
his crips gold hair. He also helpful, he always help anyone who need his help.
He was really kind like he never made a sin before. There was something in his
face that made one trust him at once. That was why he became the most honorable
person in that area. All of that things also became the reason why Barbara and
every woman in that area admired him and wanted to be his wife. Unfortunately,
the problem was he seem like, he never showed his interest to woman, but that
was not mean he was gay or something, he just never showed he want a serious
relationship with someone. So that was why Barbara never gave that picture to
him because she was afraid if he would not accept it.
Luckily, because of all people
always talked about that picture. Fredrick also heard about that and curious to
know who was actually the great painter who could draw his face as gorgeous as
the real him. In the following day, Fredrick came to Barbara’s Gallery and he
really amazed of that picture.
“Woah...I
have heard about how amazing this picture is but I never expect that it is
really...me...it is me...it is...” Fredrick really speechless, he could not
describe how amazing this picture with word. Look Fredrick that way made
Barbara smiled and proud of herself.
“Do
you really like this picture?” Barbara asked.
“Yeah
of course...I like it, I look really handsome in that picture” Fredrick smiled.
“You
are really handsome from the inside and outside, that is why I like you”
Barbara said it with a faint blush colored her cheeks for a moment.
“Thank
you but I hope I can be that picture” Fredrick smiled.
“What
do you mean?” Barbara confused.
“I
mean, look at me now... I’m 23 and I’m getting old year by year, so I can be
ugly someday,
but this picture...this picture will remain always young. It will never be
older than this particular day of January”
Fredrick explained.
"You are not jealous of material things, arent
you?"
"I am jealous of everything whose beauty does not
die."
“But
like I said before, you will always look
handsome from the inside because of your attitude”
“Well
said, thank you”
“You
can have that picture if you really like it”
“Are
you sure? Can I
bring it to my home?” Fredrick surprised.
“Yeah
of course” Barbara smiled.
“But...I
heard that you never wanted to sell it, no matter how much money that you would
get...but how come you give it to me?” Fredrick confused.
“Yeah
because it is your picture. It is you, you are the model. And actually I want
to give that picture for you but I’m just afraid you do not want to accept it”
Barbara explained.
“No...how
come you thought I would not accept it? I will accept it for sure. Thank you”
Fredrick smiled.
***
A few days later, there was a rumour
about Fredrick. Fredrick was accused of rape a woman from other area.
Absolutely, no one would believe her because all of people in Pengadegan
believe that Fredrick was a really good
person who would never do that and blame that woman because she just wanted
Fredrick’s attention by did that and wanted Fredrick to marry her. But Barbara
thought differently, as we knew Fredrick never wanted a serious relationship,
so it could be a good reason why he did that
because he just wanted to had sex with that woman
and he also did that far from Pengadegan, that was why people in Pengadegan
never believe that rumour, but Barbara knew she should also check, if that
woman really told the truth or not so she should check the evident in that area
because everything had two side of story, right?
***
In the following day, Barbara came to the woman’s
area and she found out, there was Fredrick who was talking to that woman.
“You should never come to Pengadegan
and spread that rumour!” Fredrick pointed to that woman.
“BUT
THAT IS NOT RUMOUR! IT IS A FACT!”
“SHUT
UP BITCH!” Fredrick pushed her. Barbara shocked, how come Fredrick became so
rude like that. It was not like Fredrick that she knew.
“IF YOU SPREAD THAT RUMOUR AGAIN, I
WILL NOT AFRAID TO KILL YOU, GOT IT?” Fredrick said and walked away. That woman
just cried on the floor. And Barbara too shocked to moved, so Fredrick saw her.
“Woah what are you doing here? Are
you following me?” Fredrick said. But Barbara still could not say any word.
“What? Are you afraid of me? Am i
ruin your imagination that Fredrick that you see now is not as good as Fredrick
that you know before?” Fredrick smiled.
“S...so that is why...you said in my
gallery that you are afraid if you get old, so you will not handsome anymore?
Because you are not handsome from the inside like I said to you before?”
Barbara said.
“Do you still remember that? Yeah
yeah that was what i mean” Fredrick said that with laughed.
“...but I never expect that you
would do that...I never imagine...how come...I should never draw you...I should
never love you” Barbara started to cry.
“HAHAHA I DO NOT CARE ABOUT YOUR
FEELING, BITCH!”
“I WILL INFORM ALL THE PEOPLE IN
PENGADEGAN TO NOT BELIEVE YOU ANYMORE! I WILL SHOW THEM THE TRUTH!” Barbara
screamed.
“YEAH...AND I WILL HELP YOU TO DO
THAT!” That woman came and held Barbara’s hand.
“Of course you should help me to
avoid any others woman become the victim!” Barbara said.
“Well well well...are you two crazy?
Are not you two afraid of me? I can do anything to hurt you or even kill you!”
After said that, Fredrick took a gun from
his pocket and shot Barbara and that woman.
***
When Fredrick arrived at his home,
he saw Barbara’s picture in his room. He shocked...how come that picture became
ugly and did not like him at all. He really hate that picture, so he took a
knife and destroyed
that picture, but unfortunately it killed him. The ugly person (Fredrick ugly version) moved from that picture into real
life and he grabbed the knife. Fredrick really shocked, he was too shocked to
moved, so Fredrick ugly version could kill him easily.
***
When
Fredrick's maid went to his room, the maid saw that there was an ugly man died, but surprisingly the
picture became handsome again and it still looked good as it used to be.
***
Fortunately, when Fredrick went after shot Barbara and
that woman, there was a woman who help Barbara and that woman. She called the
ambulance and ambulance came immediately, so the doctor could save them. After
that, the woman asked what happen to them, who did that to them. They told her
the whole story.
***
The following day, that woman went to Pengedegan to
search Fredrick, but there was a news that Fredrick had gone. The people in
Pengadegan never knew that Fredrick was killed.
But now, all of people in Pengadegan knew what
actually Fredrick did to Barbara and that woman. All of the people in Pengadegan felt guilty to that woman, so when Fredrick
came someday, they did not want to accept him to live there anymore. But what
they actually did not know is Fredrick will never came anymore.
