WILLOCK 32

“Isn’t it rude for a pianist to pluck thorny bushes this early in the morning?” An angelic, beautiful voice that I was quite new to and was familiar with stated from behind. It was always my duty to pluck out thicky bushes on times when I wasn’t doing my piano duties in the evening. It was the princess, the princess of Iraq, Amir’s sister, to be precise, and I had not yet gotten her name. How rude of me, I may say.

“You are quite an early bird, princess.” I stated, turning my back to face her. I slightly bowed, something that I had spent quite a long time not doing.

“Yes, the air and breeze of this side of the country quite appease me.” She said that, which made me smile a little. I was not quite the choosy of air since the start of my troubles; I had faced so much that I had forgotten what air and breeze felt like.
