Chapter 186: Zia_L Livestream

Zinnia sat at her easel, her fingers lightly brushing the edge of the canvas as she prepared herself to paint. Her fans, tuning in for another live painting session, filled the comments section with their usual excitement.

"We missed you too, Goddess Zia!" one comment read.

"We love you!" another chimed in.

"What are we painting today?" someone else asked eagerly.

"You look radiant!" a fan added.

Zinnia smiled softly at the messages, her heart warmed by their words. "Today, I thought I’d paint something close to my heart," she said, her voice calm but warm. "It’s a little different, but I hope you’ll love it as much as I do."

The viewers eagerly awaited, eyes glued to their screens. Zinnia dipped her brush into the vibrant palette of colors in front of her, her mind drifting as she began to paint. The soft strokes of her brush brought the scene to life—an expansive ocean stretching out before her, waves gently crashing against the shore. A ship stood tall in the middle of the sea, and hovering just above it were two helicopters, their rotors slicing through the air with an urgent hum.

Zinnia’s brush moved with precision as she painted the ship’s deck. In the center of the deck, a lone figure descended from one of the helicopters. The man was dressed in a sleek black suit, the wind ruffling his hair as he made his descent. Below him, a crowd of people stood in attention, watching the spectacle unfold. Among them, one woman stood out. She was the only one wearing vibrant colors, her eyes fixed on the descending man, her expression filled with awe and wonder.

Zinnia continued to work, her brush strokes flowing as if they had a life of their own. She added the subtle glow of vibrant light around the woman, as if the colors were casting a path toward the man. The energy between them seemed to spark, as if fate itself had orchestrated their meeting. The colors blended together, creating a surreal glow that made the scene come alive with emotion.

Her fans watched with bated breath as Zinnia painted, many of them commenting in real-time. "This is incredible!" one fan exclaimed.

"You’re so talented, Zia_L!" another said, clearly captivated by her skill.

Zinnia glanced at the comments, her smile growing. "Thank you all for your kind words," she replied, her voice light but sincere. "I wanted to capture the feeling of two people drawn together by something more than just chance. It’s like the world is creating a path for them to find each other."

The comments flooded in even more rapidly after that. "Such a beautiful scene," one fan commented. "I can feel the connection between them."

Zinnia’s eyes sparkled as she continued painting. "Exactly. It’s like they were meant to meet, no matter what. The colors, the light, it all feels like fate is guiding them together."

As Zinnia’s brush strokes became more deliberate, the scene was taking shape. The ship and helicopters looked almost real, the vibrant light surrounding the woman and the man was glowing with an ethereal beauty. She added the smallest details—flecks of white to make the ocean shimmer, strokes of deep blue to bring depth to the sky. The atmosphere felt alive with movement, the light casting shadows, creating a sense of anticipation in the air.

Her fans were still glued to their screens, mesmerized by her process. "I can’t stop watching," one fan typed. "It’s like I’m right there, seeing it all happen."

"Every stroke is magic," another said. "You make painting look so easy, Zia_L!"

Zinnia chuckled softly, glancing at the comments. "It’s not always easy, but I love it. I love sharing these moments with you all. I hope you’re seeing the story unfold as I am."

Across the city, Samuel sat in his office, his phone in hand, his eyes fixed on the livestream of Zinnia painting. He watched her with a quiet intensity, his mind focused on her every move. She looked so serene, so in her element as she worked. Her smile, her concentration, the way her hands moved with ease—it all made him feel a surge of affection for her.

As Zinnia neared the completion of the painting, her heart skipped a beat. She felt a deep connection to the scene she was creating—a story of two people, drawn together across time and space, their connection undeniable. She paused for a moment, her brush hovering above the canvas, as she took it all in.

Suddenly, there was a knock at the door, breaking her concentration. She frowned slightly, glancing toward the door.

"Hold on a second, Little Flowers," she said, setting her brush down and turning to the door.

When she opened the door, the gardener stood there, holding a large bouquet of flowers. Zinnia’s eyes widened in surprise, her heart racing at the sight. The flowers were the same ones she had painted in the past—a bouquet of soft roses, delicate lilies, vibrant sunflowers, peonies, cherry blossoms, zinnias, and more.

"Delivery for you, ma’am," he said with a polite smile, handing her the flowers.

Zinnia accepted the bouquet, her fingers brushing over the delicate petals as her mind raced. She glanced at the attached card, her hands trembling slightly as she opened it. Her heart skipped a beat when she saw the familiar handwriting.

To my Goddess Zia,

You inspire me every day.

Love,

Sam

Her cheeks flushed with warmth, and a soft smile spread across her lips. She turned back to the camera, holding the bouquet up for her fans to see.

"Looks like we have a little surprise today," she said, her voice warm and full of affection. The fans erupted in excitement, flooding the chat with questions and comments.

"Who’s it from, Goddess Zia?" one fan asked eagerly.

"Is that from your fiancé?" another speculated.

"He’s so romantic!" someone else commented.

Zinnia laughed, her heart fluttering as she glanced at the camera. "Maybe I’ll tell you one day," she said with a wink, her voice playful.

"Ahh, we need to know!" a fan typed eagerly.

Zinnia chuckled, her gaze drifting back to the flowers. "For now, it’s just a little surprise from someone who knows how to brighten my day."
