Day 101

✧✰✧✰✧✰✧

"Are you ready?"

You look over at Tyler and nod your head.

"Okay, good," Tyler smiles. He leans forward and takes your hand in his. "It's really easy. Just take this finger-no, not that one, this one-put it on the first string, third fret. No, that's not the first string, that's the fourth string-"

Tyler breaks out into a laugh, and you smile.

"Come on!" He says, laughing. "Just put your finger on the bottom string-yes! Yes, that's it!"

You look down at the small instrument in your arms.

Tyler's ukulele.

He said he wanted to teach you how to play, so he could sing and you could strum.

Since you can't sing.

"Okay, now," Tyler continues. He puts his hand on top of yours, holding it in place on the neck of the ukulele. "Strum down."

You take your thumb and glide it from the top string down to the bottom.

Tyler breaks out into an enthusiastic applause.

"You did it!" He beams like an excited child. "You just played a C chord."

You smile and playfully roll your eyes.

You set Tyler's ukulele down carefully in the grass, and Tyler wraps you in a tight hug.

"You'll be playing on stage with me in no time!"
