"Flynn."
Maddison huffed before turning around because he definitely recognized that voice. "Well, well. If it isn't Dicky ."
Emotionless as ever, Richard Smith regarded him silently. Then, "I wish you the best today."
Rolling his eyes, Maddison lifted his chin higher and crossed his arms above his chest. "I'm going to represent our city even without your well wishes."
Richard, for his part, looked utterly confused. "Only one artist can represent the prefecture. You know that, right?"
Something snapped inside Maddison. Richard was so confident he was going to win over him that Maddison wanted to punch him in the gut. "I swear to God, Dicky you are so full of it!Sammy, stop me or —"
Maddison stopped. Richard stared at him. His schoolmates cocked their heads to one side. There's no Sammy here.
Breathing deeply, Maddison turned around and fixed his materials, deciding the conversation was over. Hopefully Richard knew this as him being dismissed and his schoolmates wouldn't attempt to talk to him. Otherwise they might hear his voice break. He was in pain as it was already.
Maddison lost.
Technically, he was second place. But as he had always said, it's all or nothing. He wanted to win. Instead, it was Richard in the first place with his stupidly beautiful painting. He couldn't understand it; he thought his own painting was amazing. One of the panel's comments said it lacked confidence and soul. That's the reason he only placed second.

Something inside Maddison snapped.
17:42 Did you honestly think I care?
