It was on my birthday when I asked to see her.
For the first time professor Jihyun let me go.
Only if I was playing the piano and I would not talk to her. I agreed to these terms but I didn't know that he wouldn't even let me see her. I stepped closer to the piano, put the fake flower she asked me to bring her and I felt proud of myself that I could manage to give her a real one the next time. I expected from the keys to be cold as nobody used them, however Zeny sit here quite often as it seemed. I could practically smell her vanilla cologne. I felt my heart beating like it did when I was with her. But now it ached! I tried to hide it because mr Jihyun was sitting on a sofa near me. For some minutes, I stayed there trying to think about what I should play. Immediately, the first time I stood next to her rushed to my mind and I started playing the minuet.
My heart was hurting even more as my need to cough became more severe. I tried to resist until I would go back home, but the situation worsened every time my fingers touched the piano keys. Nevertheless, I continued; I continued until I wasn't able to feel my heart. Until my head would touch the piano and make the song stop. This was the second and last time I played the piano for Zeny. I hoped she liked it.
