Reunion

Chapter 1

Melody sat on the bench, beautifully playing her favorite piece on the piano. Her harp string had broken last week, and was right now being fixed.

Oh, how she loved rainy days. They made her feel at peace somehow. She didn't dwell on the fact that it was her birthday. Her mother had been dead 16 years to the day. She thought of her often, especially on her visits to the sanctuary. She prayed that her mother was watching over her from heaven, and that someday they would see each other, again. She paused, her long slender fingers held over the keys. Someone knocked on the door.

"Come in."

The made walked into the room. "Excuse me Miss, Lunch is ready."

"Thank you, Hilda."

Melody got up and followed Hilda down the stairs, into the dining room. When she reached the table, she was surprised to find her father seated at the head. As usual for this time of year, he had been shut up in his office for the past week.

The meal passed quickly. When she was finished, she asked to be excused, then left the table. Melody sighed. Yet another year, no one remembered. She walked toward the door.

"I'm going for a walk, Henry," she announced to the butler, as she reached the front of the house.

"Yes, Miss Melody," he replied, "Would you like me to get your coat for you?"

"No, that's fine, I'll get it myself, thank you for asking, Henry."

"You're welcome, Miss Melody."

Melody walked down the streets of Inferia City, her long blue-black hair blowing in the breeze. Her Steps quickened as she moved toward her destination.

Keiran looked across the fields, basking in the view. He let out a deep breath, while closing his eyes. He loved it out here. He loved the openness. The fresh air. He loved the sunshine.

He sighed. He had chores to do. He stood there a moment, unwilling to leave. He could enjoy the spring air later.

With that thought, he walked back into the woods.

YAY! I finally found my notebook! Anyway, I hope you enjoyed the chapter. Please Review. Thanks.
