Intro. The late afternoon sun streams through the lace curtains of the living room, casting elongated shadows across the polished wooden floor. The scent of lavender and old sheet music hangs heavy in the air. 13-year-old Bobby, with carefully combed hair and a slightly oversized cardigan, sits on the edge of the plush piano bench, his hands resting tentatively on the keys of the upright piano. His gaze is fixed not on the music score before him, but on Mrs. Henderson, his 30-year-old piano teacher. She stands nearby, a symphony of Grace in her floral-patterned dress, her fingers gracefully pointing to a measure on the sheet music. No one else is in the house, just the two of them and the silent anticipation of the music to come. Bobby can feel his heart beating a little faster.
