| Connor & Hank | One Shots (Discontinued)

1st Ballade

A/N Chopin is my all time favorite classical pianist. And Ballade No 1 is one of this piece that made me cry.

I will give you a signal where you can now play the video provided above.

So now to the story!

------------------------------------------------------

Hank won't just let Connor live somewhere else, not just he never trusted the android living alone. But the security of the RK80 itself, he maybe a detective android, but he was a deviant hunter of course.

So the lieutenant let Connor to move in with him and Sumo. Hank has a spare room just beside the bathroom so might as well give it to him.

"Sorry, it's messy and really dusty.. But I know you can clean this up." the old man opened the room door.

The room is quite decent. The walls are painted in a sky blue color. Its also has a bed but it has been stacked with boxes. And there is a small piano in the corner which is covered with layers of dust.

"It's okay. Thank you, lieutenant." Connor smiled sweetly.

"Cut the formality, Connor." Hank chuckled. "And by the way, I have some old clothes in that box over there. You won't be needing that uniform of yours."

"Thanks lieu-- Hank.."

"Okay, feel yourself at home and I'll be in the living room if you need me." He left the android alone for awhile to give him some privacy.

Connor checked the small box and he saw some old shirts and pairs of pants. He remembered what Hank said that he won't be needing his Cyberlife uniform.

He changed into a black shirt and a pair of dark blue denim jeans. The android started to look around in his new room and he saw the piano.

It was old, base on its appearance it's a 2028 model. The piano has 7 octaves and obviously was equipped for professional pianists.

Connor scanned the instrument and it had no electrical damages. It maybe work even if its already 10 years old.

The android then plugged the said appliance and switched it on. Behold, it still works.

He sat in the chair and started to play. *queue Chopin Ballade No. 1 in G minor*

***

Hank was sitting on the couch in the living room doing something in his phone. Then he started to hear the piano being played across the house.

He realized it was Connor and remembered the dusty old piano in the android's new room. So, he sprung from the couch and quietly walk to the room. The door was partially close so Hank can actually peek in and watch the android pressing thru the keys.

Connor was pre-occupied in his playing and didn't noticed the lieutenant was watching him peeking from the door. He maybe be a machine that can master skills in spilt seconds but he's been playing the piece gracefully and with emotion.

The piece ended and Connor turned around to see Hank leaning against the door frame smiling.

"Hank! How long have you been listening?!" he was shocked.

"From the very beginning.." he smiled. "I didn't know you can play the piano."

"Lieutenant, I'm a machine. I can master skills in an instant." Connor replied.

"No- I mean with emotion. And literally of all the pieces, that sprung up in your mind." he chuckled.

"I don't know, I just played it." he said as he switched off the instrument. "And I didn't know you played an instrument before, Hank."

"No..I don't. I had that because I want Cole to learn music."

"Calling the song 'piece' and the piano is equipped for professionals?" Connor doubted.

"Okay, you got me.." the lieutenant surrendered. "I played before, but I don't have time to get back to it."

"I see.." the android nodded. "Classical or Jazz?"

"I played some classical, but I liked Jazz more." Hank sighed feeling defeated because Connor finding out his secret.

"Can you play for me some other time?" The RK800 asked.

"Maybe.. I won't promise, though." he replied and chuckled. "And are you gonna clean the f*king room or what?"

"I'll clean it, don't worry!"
