First, she fiddled around with the tune and rhythm. Like an obedient device, the piano produced gentle noise the way she intended it to. Soon, she entered a state of trance, letting the music flow through her without any thought.

Dum, dum, dum…

The chords reverberated across the room.

Sitting next to the window, Liam held the book in hand with an intent look in his eyes.

He looked at Caprice and observed the way she lost herself in the music, her eyes half-closed. She seemed intoxicated by the music she was playing and was beaming like a satisfied kitten.

He smiled at the sight of her.

Meanwhile, at the top of the spiral stairs connected to the living room, two figures were lurking upstairs and looking down at Caprice.

She frowned but continued pressing on, trying to match every key on the music sheet as closely as possible. She could not embarrass herself in front of Liam!

No matter what, she had to play till the end!

Dum… dum dum…

It only grew worse as time went on, to the point whereby she herself could not stomach the sounds she was making on the piano anymore.
