"Lorr what are you doing?"
Lorraine grinned at her brother. "I'm going to look!" She declared.
"Lorr!" He exclaimed, "No we are not allowed to!" Lovell tried to get in between the large covered object and his twin, but she was stronger and got past him.
"Three!"
"Lorr don't!"
"Two!"
"Please don't! Papa said-"
"One!" Lorr yanked the cover down and gazed up at the object underneath.
"Help me up Lovell." Lorr's blue eyes were focused on the stool in front of the object, and with her brother's unwilling help, she climbed onto it.
Six years old and adventurous, all Lorraine had ever wanted to do with this object was explore it. She felt the sides with her hand, and realised quickly that there was a lid.
"Lovell! Lovell! There's a lid on it!"
"Don't open it, we'll get in even more trouble with Papa."
Lovell was also six years old, and a lot less inquisitive. Instead, he was sensible and refined, getting himself into a lot less trouble than his sister.
Lorraine grinned down at her brother and opened the lid, with no idea what to expect inside. She certainly didn't expect to find impeccable rows of ivory and black keys, that made a symphony of sounds when you pressed them.
"Lovell! It's a-"
"Piano?" Lovell's head gazed up at the magnificent instrument, and he too tried to climb onto the stool to play it, now almost as excited as his sister.
Lorr's fingers danced over the keys, making ignorant child's melodies, and when they were joined by Lovell's lower notes, it blended together in a beautiful dissonance. Lorraine laughed at the noise, and moved her other hand onto the piano, Lovell doing the same, and the air was soon full of the clashing vibrations.
After a minute or so of random playing, Lorraine stopped and smiled at her brother. "I want to learn how to play it nicely!"
"Me too!" Lovell admitted, and subsequently was caught up in a fierce hug. "Lets do it together, Lorr."
"Yes! Lets." Lorr's face was bright with excitement and she helped her brother off the stool before hopping off herself.
"When will we do it?" Lovell asked, and Lorraine simply grabbed his hand and said, "Now!", while dragging him out of the room to find their mother.
