(*chord being rubbed slowly*)

(*violin starting to play*)

The calm and profound sound of strings being slowly touched by the bow creating a beautiful melody that pleases the ears. It was an interpretation of a piece named Spring composed and formally played by Vivaldi. The sound of the string was singing and sustained until it started to go faster and in a matter of seconds the rhythm had changed to the iconic part of that melody when all the heart was put in the violin to play this rapid succession of notes that created a chaotic symphony yet incredible. This cover was brilliantly done by Matthew right now.

He was playing for several minutes now and he was about to end, his movements were pretty smooth for his size. Some found amazement in watching him play, some even admired his undeniable talent, others were seeing a tough challenger if they were to compete. But above everything, they were all reunited under music right now. Only the long then short strokes of the bow was being heard. Then Matthew proceeded with long whistling sound that ended the piece.

He opened his eyes that were closed all along to look at the crowd that was still flabbergasted. Until one clap then another then it was a full round of applause.

Even the lecturer Pr. LaCroix was amazed. She was a fox, her red robe was partially turning grey. She exuded French female chic with a tailored navy blazer, a flowy silk blouse, and a slim-fitting trousers in earthy tones for autumn. She completes the look with leather ankle boots, a lightweight scarf, and minimalistic jewelry made of stud earrings and a delicate necklace, showcasing her effortless elegance as she walks through the rows while applauding at the masterpiece she heard from Matthew's playing.

Pr. LaCroix: " Stunning, powerful yet distinguished and elegant. This, students, is exactly what here at RASAC we are looking for. People with the ability to make music not just from the heart but from the core of your souls. M. Adams realized a wonderful performance and I thank you again for your participation, young man. You may get back to your sit, we will go on to the next person."

People looked in awe as Matthew got back to his sit timidly. He didn't really like attention brought on him but he knew that here he had to show that he was able to do not just good but great. He liked music a lot, and showing his passion like this was somehow satisfying. He was smiling while keeping away his violin in its case. Someone behind him, a female labrador nudged him to get his attention. He turned back and she giggled as she said "Hey you were quite great, heck that was fabulous Matt. We surely can get a good grade for this Friday little exam" Matthew scratched his neck and said "well I guess, Imma do my best, Lora" she smiled and looked at him with doe eyes.

Lora: "so huh, wanna grab lunch after class, I heard they opened a branch of fast food in the uni mall"

Matthew pondered for a moment then he smiled and said "Fine by me"

She smiled and bit her lower lip but Matthew had already turned back and didn't see. The class went by pretty smoothly, students were playing their best solos in front of the class while applying the various concepts taught by Pr. LaCroix.
The latter had already asked Matthew to join the Classical, a branch of the music club but he declined politely saying that he had less to no time after practice of swimming and he couldn't take part in another club. She was a bit disappointed but understood and he was happy she did. Soon after the end of class, Matthew got a text from Lauren "Can't wait to talk to you about our little topic, I also asked the same thing to Wyatt and his answer was wonderful as well. Ooh how about we do like a debate?"

Matthew chuckled while walking beside Lora who was walking a tad too close. He replied to Lauren "how about create a chat group where we can share our ideas and opinions on various subjects?" She typed then replied "That's a wonderful idea, I mean we literally can have intelligent talks. Omg finally some males with brains" he chuckled and pocketed his phone then noticed Lora was walking while giggling.
