ReplyDelete(First Picture)
ReplyDeleteIt was a wedding which was so crowded. Everthing was appearing perfect except Carol(the lady who is sitting sadly). Carol was a rich but unhappy woman. In the city, everyone was talking about her prosperity. She could buy everthing what she wanted with her money. Normaly, she must be happy but she was not. Because of love. She was trying to find someone who was not interested in her fortune. It was too hard for her because every man was trying to reach her fortune. But Carol was trying to find real love.
The wedding party was Sarah&Damien's. They were Carol's best friends. Carol was happy on that day but when she thought her love life, she felt sad.
She was sitting on a chair with her mother. Suddenly, she felt a finger on her back. She turned back and saw a man who was so handsome. Man was trying to tell something but Carol didn't listen him and asked for dance. Then they danced and Carol felt in love with him because he even didn't know Carol's prosperity. Man loved Carol too. And they married in that month :)

ReplyDeleteI selected second picture
ReplyDeleteOnce upon a time,there was a rich man and he was so happy with his family.He had only one child.One day,his son caught an enormous ilness.He didn't eat anything.He didn't feel any energy to walk.As a result of this,his father lost his consciousness.He also lost everything which he owned. This is the picture of a sad man who lost everything in his life.
I selected the second picture.
ReplyDeleteThis painting represents a man. This man looks sad, when I look at the him. I think, he has an exhaustive job and works until late hours. Moreover, he has an affair. The woman is married to another man and, he is afraid of explaining this love. He hates himself and regrets because of his feelings. This is a very difficult situation, I can see it in his eyes. He is tired, pessimistic and powerless.
Zeynep and Ece your stories are nice, thank you.
