She dried the tears on her cheeks and turned to look at the person who had sat down next to her. She was surprised to find that he was just a young boy.

The boy saw her expression change and quickly started strumming on his guitar. “Shall I play you a song? Maybe you’ll feel better after some tunes…”

“Of course! Just listen and see!”
