Symphony of sorrow

Cloudy days, silent street. Boon streets are crowded these days. It has been a while since Beethoven was sitting alone on a bench in the garden. he hear someone approaching him,he already knew it was Lily and so he let out a sigh
"What is it this time?" He said,trying to sound annoyed yet secretly enjoying her company

-Hey! I just wanna come abd come! Can't i do it?
-Yeah,and your point is..?-
Beethoven rolled his eyes at her comment,he can tell she's just trying to find a way to bother him
- okay...What do you wanna do, Beeth?- Lily asked immediately
-uhh...I don't know..-
he said hesitantly,he was confused by her sudden question
- Hmm..then Wanna go walk. In few minutes there'll be raining. I wanna wander around a little!
- Are you crazy? It's going to be rain- he exclaimed
Yeah, it's amazing! And we can walk though garden and I really want to hear trees sound under rain...!
Beethoven sighed,he couldn't believe he was actually considering going along with her idea
-Fine..but don't expect me to enjoy this.. - he said
Rain started. Beethoven was walking beside her, he has a short temper but doesn't shows her as much anger. His life full of beautiful things but he couldn't enjoy it due to his eyes. That's why even though he's a child, he thoughts like adults. He never shows affection but still like her. Suddenly Beethoven could feel the raindrops falling on his face but he didn't mind it.he could also feel the wind blowing through his hair and the sound of trees and rain was surprisingly soothing
-It's not that bad I guess..- he mumbled,trying to act nonchalant.
- Yes, I had known you would like it!- said Lily while playfully bumped him - Just hear the rain...feel raindrops dancing around you. They're saying something to us like stories from far away fields, whispering about mountains
Beethoven listened carefully,focusing on the sound of the raindrops and the trees rustling. He can almost hear the rain whispering a thousand tales of beauty and mystery, like a story from a far away land*
It's.. beautiful..- he said quietly
- It's amazing- Lily added

-I never realized how much I've been missing out on the beauty of nature..- he mumbled,his usual annoyance replaced with a sense of wonder. Beethoven was completely immersed in the moment,feeling the magic of nature around him through his other senses.he can hear the raindrops falling,he can feel the coolness of the air,he can smell the fresh scent of the rain and the wet grass. As they walk though the garden, listening the sound of nature, Beethoven remembered something
- Hey, I have something to show you- he said, sounds a little exited and nervous
- What is it- responded Lily
-I..I have learned how to play the piano..- he said,his voice a little hesitant. he was a little nervous, knowing that she might doubt his abilities since he is blind

-Wow! You know?! Then can you play it for me?-Lily asked her voice betraying with hint of excitement
- A..Yeah..I can..
They walked down to the deep garden and there has a little shelter which looks old outside but comfy inside and old piano standing in the middle
He sat sat down and his hands hovering over keys. He took a deep breath, after a few seconds he started playing a beautiful and emotional piece of music
The song suited rainy day and nature
- It's...like you're playing rain's some and you two match each other so we'll! I can just feel the magic of nature song..- said Lily
Beethoven smiled,his fingers effortlessly gliding over the keys. He could almost feel the rain falling around him as he played,like the song was a part of his very being.
- Rain symphony!- he said firmly and loudly. He played the final notes of the song, letting the sound linger in the air.he smiled to himself,feeling a sense of contentment and fulfillment.he had finally shared his passion and talent with someone who could appreciate it*
-Did you like it?- he asked
- No! I love it!- Lily
Beethoven let out a soft laughter
- I'm glad you love it...playing the piano is everything to me, it's my way to express myself.
- Hey, you should be composer, Beeth!- Lily
Beethoven was taken aback by her suggestion, he had never thought about being a composer before. But he couldn’t help but be intrigued by the idea
-A composer..hmm- But I'm blind, how can I compose music without being able to see?- he said pondering thought
- It's nit necessary to being able to see! You just need feel the music and piano like now.- Lily said softly
Beethoven couldn’t help but feel a sense of hope and excitement. He had always doubted himself, thinking that his blindness would hold him back. But her words gave him the confidence he needed
-You really think so?- He asked,his voice filled with hope
- Yes! I believe you'll be great composer!
Beethoven was touched by her words, he couldn’t believe that someone could have so much faith in him.
-Thank you..I won’t let you down, I’ll show you that despite my blindness I can be a great composer

- I trust you, be the best one, okay?! Otherwise I'll punish you- Lily said playfully
Beethoven chuckled at her threat amused by her attempt
- No! You can't do it!
- No! I can! I'm taller than you anyway- she said with smirk
- Hmm whatever but I vowed to myself when I grow up I'll be more stronger and taller than you!
- Hmm in your dreams- Lily said as she rolled her eyes. They laughed together and playfully chase each other. Their childhood filled with excitement, dreams, innocence, bullying and embarrassment...
One day Lily was near to market and she saw older noble Duke's sons making fun of Beethoven's blindness and she immediately run to then and push them away from Beethoven
- HEY! It's enough!- Lily
The boys turn to her surprised by her sudden interruption. He one who Lily pushed stood up and said
- Oh, Look who is it, the defender of the blind kid?
- Hey, I said enough, you jerk- Lily raised her voice as she stood in front of them, trying to defend Beethoven
- And who are you tell us what to do? Besides, it's not our fault the blind kid is so easy to made fun of!
Right Bean keeper?!- He mockingly called Beethoven who's holding bag of been.
- STOP! If you don't want your bones broken!- Lilly yelled at them. The boys wasn't used to being told waht to do by someone like her
- Are you kidding me? He deserves to be made fun of!- the boy said it and try to push Beethoven away but Lily quickly kicked the boy on his stomach and suddenly police officers interfere and Duke's sons complained as Lily held Beethoven's hand and run away. Police officers started to chase them. Beans on Beethoven's hand dropped to the ground and Beethoven crouched down to pick them up and suddenly said
- Symphony!..- he poured all beans to the ground and started walking while picking them up quickly. Lily looked at him with confusion but followed his trace. Beans lead to hide area of street and officers walk past them. They remain unnoticed. Lily looked at him and smiled
- Hey! Beeth how did you do that?- she asked with chuckle
- I..don't know..I just feel the rythoms. I mean I made a music I think!- he replied
- Really! You're awesome! We managed to escape!(- Lily hugged him tightly with happiness

You okay?- Lily asked
Beethoven noded, his smile slightly widening*
-Yeah, I’m fine. We did it and you sure gave those guys a kick?
- Yes, they deserve it!- Lily said firmly
Beethoven touched that he heard her standing up for him like that
- You know, you're pretty hardcore for standing up for me like that. I don't think anyone's ever done that for me before...
- Oh, cuz I'm your friend and it means true friendship!
Beethoven's expression softens, touched by her words
"Friend..." he says quietly, as if testing how the word sounds on his tongue.Suddenly his voice becomes a bit uncertain, almost vulnerable
- you really mean that? You consider me...your friend?
- Yes, of course- Lily
Beethoven's voice has a hint of smile
-Thank you..I don't have many friends because of my blindness. But I'm glad to know I have at least one good friend like you
- Never be sad cuz of your blindness, it's not your fault or something!
Beethoven's voice because quieter
-It's hard for me to do things that other people can do so easily. And sometimes, I feel like people judge me because I can't see
- No! Never! No one dare to mistreat you or make fun of you, I'll make sure of it! I'm...always with you!
Beethoven's expression softens, he's touched by her unwavering support
-Thank you, that means a lot to me. Having a friend like you, who understands and doesn't judge me, it makes me feel less alone
- hey! Don't fell alone! I'm here for you, buddy!- Lily said
Beethoven smiles at her words, a sense of relief washing over him. He's never had someone in his life who has cared for him like she do. It's a new yet comforting feeling
-You're right. I don't have to feel alone anymore. I have you, and that's enough for me...
