37  37 - Uncertainty and new music

Selena's reaction was quite different from what I'd imagined...

"Are you sure?" I asked uncertainly.

"Yes, can you make her look cute drinking English tea?" She asked excitedly as she stood very close to me, our faces almost touching.

Seeing how close she was because she was so excited about what I was doing, I just sighed and answered. "Sure, you want a white cat with a pink bow on its head, drinking tea on a sunny day in a coffee shop in England. Right?" I confirmed.

"Yes!" She said, jumping up and down excitedly.

"Just wait a bit..." I said as I opened my drawing program and began to draw the character she had asked for.

As I had discovered when I started drawing, the furry culture in this world was still in its infancy, so hardly anyone knew what Furrys were, and Selena was one of those people who didn't know.

When I showed her my drawings, the first thing she thought of were the cartoons she used to watch as a kid, and she wanted me to make a white cat version of her.

At least I could see that she wasn't a furry, she just liked the aesthetic and wanted a cute drawing of her that way.

So I did what she asked.

While she sat on the bed next to the computer and watched me draw, I concentrated on drawing the character she wanted, alternating my gaze with hers.

To make the drawing more realistic, I took the opportunity to look at her more closely.

Selena was really pretty, with a very slim body, but her hips were a little wider than her waist, and her skin was white and very well cared for.

Of course, I wasn't staring at her breasts, since she obviously saw me staring at them, so I just tried to keep my gaze as professional as possible.

"Are you using me as a model?" she asked, a little confused and shy.

"Yes, I thought you'd like it better that way. Does that bother you?" I asked, trying to act natural. The situation would only get weirder if I acted like a weirdo, but if I kept it professional, she would probably be more relaxed as well.

And as I imagined, she answered more calmly. "It's okay. It raises my expectations."

Getting another Dexterity point was a big help with the drawing. In just 40 minutes, the drawing was done just the way she wanted it.

During the drawing time, we talked and got to know each other; since she would be taking care of my career, it was important that we know about each other's lives.

She had graduated that year from MIT with a degree in business administration with a specialization in music career. From what she told me, I was her first artist, as she was very careful about who she chose to work with.

As I had imagined, she was 22 years old, but since she was too young to inspire confidence in others, she preferred more serious clothes and more mature make-up to appear older.

As for me, I told her about Noah's old dream of becoming a singer and being able to influence people and help his family.

I also told her that I was learning martial arts, programming, and was interested in learning other languages and instruments.

As we talked, the initial embarrassment of being seen modeling disappeared.

When the drawing was finally finished, she got out of bed and came over to my side to take a closer look at the computer monitor and began to observe the drawing.

"That looks amazing!" She said excitedly as she moved even closer to look at it. "You even got her to wear my earrings!"

"Yeah, I noticed they were the same earrings you were wearing yesterday, so I thought it would be a nice detail." I replied, smiling as I stepped back to let her look more comfortably.

It was very satisfying to see her reaction.

"How much is it?" She asked.

"Normally I charge $100 per piece, but since we signed the contract today, I won't charge you anything, this will be my gift to you so that we can have a good partnership." I replied.

"Really? I can afford it..." She replied in surprise.

"Nah, don't worry. As long as you like it." I replied.

Looking between the drawing and my smile, I saw that she also opened a small smile and replied. "Thanks Noah, I love it. I'll get you a present too, don't worry."

Smiling, I didn't deny it. Since I had given her a gift, it would make her feel uncomfortable if she didn't give me a gift, so I just accepted.

"Can I print this?" She asked worriedly.

"Yes, I can send you the PDF file and you just have to take it to a printer and they can print it at the size you want. Since I made it in a large file size, the quality won't be bad even if you want to make a poster out of it." I laughed as I explained.

"I'm going to put it on my bedroom wall." She said smiling.

After that we said goodbye, as it was Sunday and she didn't want to waste my time, but she also had other things to do.

As soon as she left, Olivia came up to me and asked. "Hey, what did you do in your room?"

"Nothing much, I just showed her Lazy Song and we talked about us and how we see my career going in the future." I replied to her disappointment. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"But she's very pretty, didn't you try anything?" She asked confused.

I laughed and looked at her suspiciously. "Do you think anything would work? I don't have much free time, I have to focus on my career, not to mention I can't even walk through the mall without getting tired. Maybe when I'm in better health I can think about it more.

What I didn't tell Olivia was that I wasn't very confident either. Selena was really beautiful, I don't think I've ever seen anyone as beautiful as her at my school, and with my current body, even though people say looks don't matter, I know they do, and with my current weight, I don't have the confidence to hit on a woman like Selena.

At the rate I'm losing weight, it won't be long before I feel good about myself, so I don't need to rush it.

Looking at me suspiciously, I think Olivia also realized the reason for my insecurity, but decided not to say anything about it.

"Hey champ, are we going to train together again today?" My dad asked excitedly as he arrived in a tracksuit, as did Ethan, who was also wearing the clothes he usually wore to work out with us.

Seeing this, Olivia went to change as well, and I just sighed and went to change as well.

With the increase in the level of my teaching skill, I had practically become their personal trainer, so I couldn't let them train alone.

But with the personal trainer in mind, I had a question.

If I get Skill Improvement Buffs while I'm at school or in the kitchen under my mom's tutelage, will that also give me a buff for how much I can improve and learn that day when we go to a gym or upgrade our home gym to a more professional level?

This was an important idea to consider.

While I was changing into more comfortable workout clothes, I received a notification.

[A new song has been selected.]

Surprised by the notification, I quickly opened the Music Selector window to see which song System thought was best for me.

At this point, I already had a song I wanted to sing, so I would compare the song I thought was best for me with the one System thought was best.

Depending on which song System chose, I would choose between my song and the one System chose, because if System thought that singing the Happy Birthday song would improve my success, I wouldn't sing it and would just choose the song myself.

But since it was a new feature in System, I had some confidence in the choice.

hey, I was wondering would bartender mixing and cooking will be separate skills because I know they do weird tricks plus also mix different types of drinks alcoholic and non-alcoholic and I imagine it also comes with how to make healthy drinks as well I thought it would be something weird and fun he can have in his skill set[imgs]

middle of the night by loveless would be a pretty good pick, can be sung by both men and women.
