Slightly Future EP (Piano)

It’s impossible to be inconspicuous while practicing a piano.

Ordinarily, Mary is loath to do anything overt that attracts attention to herself. Being the focus of attention tends to make her dreadfully uncomfortable. But the piano is a rare exception. Her mind is on the keys and little else.

She’s gone through her scales, and is now practicing a sonata that has come out of London and become quite popular. It’s a piece of light, quick notes, and (in all honestly) a little bit beyond her abilities. Mary finds herself continually tripping over notes and falling behind the tempo.

After missing the last note of a measure for the third time in a row, Mary stops, purses her lips, and stabs one finger down on the offending key. Just to relieve her feelings.
