Casey entered the music room pretty early in the morning so he was surprised to see Nikolai already in the room. "Why are you so early?" asked Casey who doubted himself for a moment. "Is there a test today that I didn't know of?" he continued to question. "I just woke up early," replied Nikolai who was setting up his music sheet. "You…Did something happen?" asked Casey as he slowly approached Nikolai. He put his guard up for no particular reason.
"Get to practice if you don't want to fail this semester," advised Nikolai. "Stop prying into my business," he added. "Me? I didn't even do anything!" said Casey who felt wronged. However, Nikolai had a legit reason since Casey loves to gossip and cares about everything that goes on with the former's life. The music faculty was filled with beautiful music once again. Time passed even quicker accompanied by such music. Soon, it was lunch time. Casey was hungry so he asked Nikolai to join him for lunch. "I'm not hungry. You go ahead," said Nikolai. "Dude, if something is bothering you, I am all ears. Just tell me and get it off your chest," said Casey.
Nikolai stopped what he was doing and turned to look at Casey. Without any words, Casey could feel the annoyance and the sign from Nikolai telling him to remain quiet if he does not want to get spanked. "Alright, alright. I will stop prying," said Casey who grabbed his bags and left. Now that he had the music room all to himself, he continued playing the piano. He seemed to be in the middle of composing his own music since he would play then scribble on the music sheet then repeat. He then heard a knock on the door so he turned around. The person he saw put a smile on his face.
