Jesse and Beth
Beth had been looking forward to this festival for months. She hadn't really had training or a lot of experience like the others, but she had a passion in her heart for music that she hoped at least came close to making up for it. She sang a few songs of her own, then a couple with Avery, and finally bounced off the stage with a bright smile on her face. As she did, she noticed the young man who had gone before her, and smiled brightly at him.
"Hi!" She said. "You were wonderful."
She wasn't fishing for compliments, she really meant it. And her sincerity would have been impossible to fake.
