The Way We Speak Through Music

2K SPECIAL

Sorry for the delay BUT HERE IT IS FINALLY

The second my eyes opened I could feel my heart flutter. Today is our fifth anniversary. Yes, we're old as fuck. Yes, he managed to live with me for so many years. 

When I think about it... we would rarely fight. Most of the times he'd let me have it my way, maybe too often. Sometimes he'd cancel our plans due to being too busy, I didn't take it well every single time but he'd make up for it. I'm so glad we always work things out and function so well together. I won't say something cheesy like "Every day with him is a blessing", but it's definitely the purest kind of happiness I've ever felt and I can't imagine a better scenario than sharing everything with Yoongi, being a team and not letting life tear us apart. 

We're living a simple life, although it often feels like we have to hide a lot. But it's nothing we can't overcome. 

Unfortunately, he's on a trip and the best we can get is a phone call. At least I'm gonna hear his voice today

"Miss?", someone approached my desk and I looked up to meet a familiar pair of bright eyes

"Hello, Vi. It's good to finally see you", I grabbed her tiny hands in excitement and stood up to hug her. She's been busy with helping her mother and didn't have enough time for the music academy. I'm giving her violin lessons in my free time as I have an actual job now and earn actual money woah adult life

"Should we continue from the last time?", I asked and stood up to bring everything we need

"Actually, I wanted to ask you for advice", surprised that she doesn't want to play but I sat down ready to listen

"Sure, I hope I can help", the girl glanced around the classroom until she decided to sit next to me and speak with her eyes glued to the floor

"Songs you wrote should make me feel certain things. For example, you composed a piece about love but I'm not feeling it. I have different pictures in my head than what they're supposed to be"

"Do you have the inspiration to write something yourself?"

"Well... nothing positive"

"I understand, you're going through a hard time. Vi, that's the thing about music. What if I never told you my thought process while playing a certain song? How would you know what to feel?"

"It would be tough, I guess"

"And why is that? Of course, I want to spread happiness with my music and messages about love, but just like everything else in this world, it comes in many different forms. I love my husband with my whole heart but that doesn't mean you need a husband or wife to understand. You love your mother, that's also a form of love I was writing about"

"What's the point in songs having meanings if everyone can interpret it however they want?"

"You just answered your question", I replied with a smile and the girl blushed in confusion. I looked through the window and saw a bunch of children, teenagers and such rushing home after class. Images of Yoongi and me in high school appeared in front of my eyes. Our lives back then were moving at such a fast pace, we couldn't always completely grasp what's going on around us or why. All we could do was stick together, express our emotions and thoughts through music then carefully listen to the piece... if I could put my life into a song... it would definitely bring out joy in others. I wish individuals somewhere far away from me, with a name I won't ever know and hobbies they talk about a lot, would listen to the song and gather the courage to go through life till the end which we don't set ourselves. Oh, I got lost in my thoughts and almost forgot about Vi. Her question brought up so many memories and thoughts that I can't create a short and clear answer
