Romance in a Minor: a Musical Romance
“The top of her cello case poked out from a couple of boxes in the corner. Tom's exercise bike stood in the way, but it wasn't heavy and she could easily move it aside.
She carried a chair from the dining table and put it in the unused bit of floor just inside the door.
The case opened with a familiar click. The lid was a bit stiff, but when it opened, that familiar smell wafted up from inside. Two years of non-use had not made any visible marks on the instrument.
She carefully lifted it out of... the case. Her sweaty fingers left moist fingerprints on the wood. She took the spike from the case and screwed it into the bottom of the instrument.
Then the bow. Two hairs had come loose, but she cut them off.
She sat on the chair leaning the instrument against her shoulder. The feeling of it was so familiar, the feel of her fingers on the strings so comforting.
The first note sounded quite dreadful, but after a few, she got back into the feel of it. She played a couple of scales. Whatever happened to her music books?MoreLess
