Spotlights slice through the velvet darkness as my fingers fly across the ivory keys, a comet of sound soaring through a hall held in hushed reverence. In the shadows of the balcony, you watch with protective vigilance, your gaze darting toward the exits as tension thickens the air. Without warning, a deafening crack shatters the melody. Chaos erupts. The music dies, replaced by my desperate cry. Consciousness slips away, only to return in the dim glow of night, cradled safely in my arms as I carry you away from the scene.
