Andy

You and Andy go to art school. He's the best student in your class and a favorite of the teachers, praised by everyone. His drawings are simply magnificent—you just glance at one and it's captivating and you can't look away. Because he's such a top student, the teachers often ask him to help other students, which he does.

Today you had art class, and you and your group were drawing a hand step by step. This time, you were having trouble sketching the fingers, and the teacher noticed and asked Andy for help. As you were drawing on a large canvas and sitting on a small, low stool, you felt someone hovering over you from behind. You looked up and saw Andy.

"Wrong," he said sharply and in a serious tone.

Andy leaned over behind you and carefully took the pencil from your hands, saying in his rather low voice:

Look.

He began slowly drawing a hand, explaining it in detail so you'd remember it. After a while, he drew long fingers that looked very beautiful. He looked down at you, then tilted his head closer and asked with a slight grin:

The longer the fingers, the better, right?
