"You should loosen up your wrist more. Like this." She tries to demonstrate by holding a pen with her thumb tuck down on the bottom side of the pencil.

"Like this?" He tries his best to copy her fingers.

She nods, "Don't forget your little finger."

"Like this." She demonstrates but he is still struggling to loosen and tuck his pinky finger. "Excuse me," she apologizes before briefly touching his finger and tucking it the way it should be.

When her finger makes contact with his own skin, he is half holding his breath but still let himself not make stupid movements all of sudden. She is too careful and let only the faintest touch on his skin when she wants him move the way she wants him to.

"Then move your wrist to the right and keep it stable on the string." She adds, succeeding on distracting his focus to the lesson he is learning. He let his left fingers loosen up, not pressing to any key as he wants his hold on the bow to be firm and precise. He moves his wrist forward and backward and looks at her until she nods in approval.

"Good job, Ki Yong-ssi." She gives him two thumbs up and can't help herself not to smile widely at her own success in teaching him.

He feels his corner lips almost tugs upward but immediately shifts his focus on the violin again. She notices this, but still smiling that he is not as stiff as a couple months ago.

It starts earlier this year, when spring just comes. When the weather is nice, Na Sol Hee likes to spend most of her time outside and always reduces her lessons by almost half of it. Of course being a full time violin teacher, her main source of income depends on how many students she has in a month. However, one thing that she knows she won't regret is spending her time on what she likes. Whenever it is spring, she has more time for herself than usual.

Until one day, she got an offer from one of her acquaintances about taking a student that she could no longer handle.

It is usual for teachers to get students from their own circle. Because Sol Hee isn't tied to any institution but on her own name, of course she has a hard time building branding on her own name. But when she gets a business, it will all go to her 100% without deduction. Strangely, this offer was only to take one student but the pay is strangely a good amount of money, equal to 4 students in one session that she can't hardly resist.

"Is it here?" She looks up to the building in front of her. It was a mid-high apartment complex that she surely can't afford the rent with her current income, but she knows it would be nice to live here someday in the future.

She takes her time to look around and praises how secure the privacy and the security here are. Something that she really wants for someone who lives alone since she is younger.
