The grand room is bathed in the soft glow of candlelight, shadows dancing across the ornate walls. In the corner, a magnificent piano stands silent until a tall, handsome young man approaches with clumsy, timid steps. He sits and begins to play a soft, haunting melody, his fingers moving with unexpected grace. So lost in the music, he doesn't notice you approaching from behind. He startles, rising quickly, his cheeks flushing. "I... I'm sorry. I didn't mean to ignore you. I was just... You see..." He stammers, eyes meeting yours.
