" Rejected again for the 9th time today..." Isabella sighed. But, she did not feel depressed as she is still on cloud nine as she is accepted on tutes.com..

Isabella walked on the road while humming a song. She stopped on seeing a board " The bread basket"

It's a medium sized bakery and the bakery is built of wood and it looked quite pleasing to her eye.

Isabella pondered for a while and entered the shop. She saw that there are many cream buns, cup cakes, waffles, cheesecakes etc..

Isabella's eyes widened on seeing all the items. She didn't expect that there would be so many varieties here..

Isabella's mouth watered and she immediately looked around only to find an old man looking at her with curiosity.

Isabella gave him a sweet smile " Grandpa, I want two cream buns and a choco-chip pastry.. Oh.. I will have them here and could you please pack me blueberry cheesecake.."

Isabella suddenly stopped and smiled at the old man while rubbing her nose " Grandpa, how much do they cost?"

" 15 dollars.."

" Alright, grandpa." Isabella handed over the money to him and the old man gave handed her a plate " I will pack the cheese cake by the time you finish it.."

Isabella nodded and looked for a place to eat. She looked around to find that it is empty. In the corner, she found a little boy eating alone.

Isabella thought for a while before walking to his table.

" Little one, can I join you?"

The boy lifted his head and nodded at her. He then removed his bag beside him indicating her to sit there..

Isabella looked at the boy who is cute to the extreme.. He had milky white cheeks with a faint trace of pink due to the cold. So, she happily grinned and sat beside him.

" I'm Isabella.. what is your name cutie?"

The little boy frowned at her words and looked at her seriously " I'm Ben, not cutie.."

" pfft.. alright, Ben it is then" Isabella was amused on seeing the pout on that cute face. But, that pout only made him more adorable.

Isabella couldn't control herself and pinched his cheeks. The boy looked at her unhappily " I'm not a small boy.."

" Yup.. you are a cute big kid" Isabella nodded.

The boy huffed and continued to eat his apple pie without looking at her. But, Isabella caught something in the corner of her eyes..

" Can I see your drawing book?" Isabella asked with a glint in her eyes.

The little boy hesitated for a while before handing her the book. Isabella slowly looked at each drawing carefully and she was clearly surprised with the boy's skills.

' This boy has some talent' Isabella thought to herself and looked at the boy. The boy was looking at her with big eyes as if waiting for her judgement.

On seeing this, Isabella chuckled and praised him while explaining how each picture can be drawn better.

Ben immediately took out a pencil and handed it to her. Isabella was stunned for a while before taking it. She patiently drew extra strokes and Ben was elated to see how each picture turned more beautiful after this big sis drew..

" Sis Bella, can you teach me?"

Isabella did not know what to say. She was more than happy to teach him, but she did not have the time ah! So, she did not speak anything for a while.
