Alex glared at her car, parked on the side of the road. After failing on her. That's right, it failed on her. It stopped. Just. Stopped. On a freaking road. While she was in it. Driving. Trying to get to her class. Which she was now extremely late for and would be unable to make it. She quickly pulled out her phone, realizing she hadn't emailed her professor yet and sent him a quick "Please don't be mad" email and hoped he wouldn't come whopping down on her for missing out on the daily project. Honsetly, she as disappointed to. The project sounded really interesting with a speaker and all that jazz and her professor wanted to share some of her work with the gallery owners that were stopping by. Alex feared she probably missed one of the greatest opportunities to get her art out there. To get her name out there.<br/><br/>She sighed again and looked up when she heard a truck pull up behind her car. She smiled and waived at the tow truck that was going to be her savior, one she had called earlier when her car just died on her to begin with.<br/><br/>A few minutes later, her car was being pulled up in front of a car repair shop. Alex jumped out of the truck, watching as the tow man unhooked her car. As she was watching her car being unhooked, she heard a voice call out. She turned around her brown eyes staring at the man who just jogged out of the shop and let her eyes roam a bit.<br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic"> Mmm, not bad. I guess today wasn't as horrible of a disaster.</span>Alex thought to herself, giving Cristos a smile before realizing why she was here and the smile dropped and she gave a sigh while looking back at her car. "My baby broke."<br/><br/>She looked at her old car. In all honestly, it wasn't even that old. Just a sweet little Honda. It worked when it was carrying all her pallets, canvases, gallons of paint, and all of her artwork and supplies that she took everywhere with her on a daily basis. It even worked really well for a good quickie in the backseat. Or front. She grinned at the thought, glancing back at Cristos.<br/><br/>"My name is Alex. I seem to be having some trouble... as you can probably already tell." She chuckled, turning her full gaze to him. Her tight jeans hugged her legs and her black shirt had one sleeve hanging off her shoulder as it gave some sort of artsy symbol on the front and back of it. Her brown long hair was pulled back into a messy bun that looked like it was about to fall apart any minute, which honestly she thought it would several times and kept trying to fix it only to make it worse in the end. "My car stopped on me as I was driving. It just went dead and I coasted off to the side. I'm not sure what happened honestly.... This was the closest place to where I was so we came here. Do you think you could take a look? I really do need to get it fixed as soon as possible."
