Beethoven and Josephine

"Oh, good afternoon Lord Josef. I was telling Lady Josephine how much she has improved in her lessons. Piano suits her well, although I think violin would be another fantastic choice for an instrument. What do you think?" The piano teacher standing next to the young and beautiful lady in the huge and dark wooden instrument greeted the manor's master.

Good afternoon Lord Ludwig. I certainly agree with you. She's doing wonderfully. She practices almost every day and we can sense her enthusiasm whenever she has to take the lessons. As for the violin, I think it's a great idea, if you consider she has the talent." Count Josef Deym replied greeting respectfully the music virtuoso.

The lady smiled to both men and kept playing a soft tune.

"I have to tell you Lady Josephine is very talented -here Lord Ludwig smiled and winked in complicity to the lady- and she learns fast. She's a great student and always willing to learn and try new things."

"That makes me feel proud. My beloved wife is very charming and special. This comment coming from Lord Ludwig Beethoven, it's more than a compliment. Don't you agree my dear Josephine?"

"Thank you, Lord Ludwig. It's an honor coming from you. You've been very supportive and tolerant." Lady Josephine replied and kept playing the piano.

Suddenly, four kids entered the piano room running and screaming.

"I beg your pardon, I promised the kids I would take them out to fly kites. I'll leave you so you can continue the lesson. I will see you later in the dinning room... Lord Ludwig." Count Josef kissed his wife on the forehead and left the piano room with the four children.

Beethoven locked the door right after Lord Josef left. Lady Josephine stood up immediately. Both embraced ardently and kissed with passion. Beethoven lifted the mistress and placed her over the piano.

"This is my favorite part of the piano. It gives me the most exhilarating notes... Don't you agree, Lady Josephine?"

The woman giggled. And wrapped with her long legs the piano teacher.
