You felt tears prick at the edge of your eyes. Blisters and shallow cuts littered your fingers. It hardly stung, but you couldn't help and smiled at the numbed pain.
「Sheesh, are you a masochist or something?」Bihyung popped up. You could imagine the dokkaebi imitating a gag with a mock expression mixed with confusion and disgust.
Oh, shut up.
"I don't understand why you want to learn.." Streetward Rambler mumbled. She stared at your bandaged fingers with a confused look. You ignored her and continued to play the instrument.
Without looking up at the older adeptus, you can already feel her disgruntled stare as she listened. Well, nobody is perfect. The past few days went by quickly as you learned how to play and trained your ears to listen to each note pitch.
When you first asked Streetward Rambler, she had replied back with a question and you only said, 'it seemed fun!' You also spotted Guizhong watching from the corner of your eye. She had a bright smile on her face as she watched you play. Since the God of Dust has been watching you practice, you really wanted to impress her by learning quick.
Guizhong watched as Streetward Rambler quickly corrected how you played. She covered her mouth with a sleeve as she laughed softly. This is the first time Guizhong has seen anyone want to learn how to play an instrument. Ever since she and Streetward Rambler became rivals over the art, no one else in the Guili Assembly wanted to be dragged into it. Until Cloud Retainer had Rex Lapis confiscate her Cleansing Bell.
"You learn fast." Streetward Rambler complimented. You beamed up at the older adeptus. "Thank you, shijie!"
The woman only smiled at how cheerful and bright look you displayed. "How about a break? We can play together to see how far you learned after."
You quickly agreed and carefully stood up, making sure your knees don't accidentally knock the stringed instrument from flipping over. You decided to make a beeline towards Guizhong like a child ready to hear their mother's praise. Or in your case, to see if your 'crush' was impressed.
