CHAPTER 93 Fingers on the Harp, Eyes on the Heart

  Ricard listened intently, his gaze following Emma's every movement. She sat with her back straight, her eyes gleaming as she explained, and her delicate fingers moved gracefully as she described musical concepts. Each time she smiled, he felt a warmth spreading through his heart. Emma's passion and enthusiasm for music seemed to radiate from her, making the atmosphere between them feel lighter and more intimate.

  "To begin," Emma said, leaning slightly over the harp, her fingers gently touching the strings. "I want you to understand the notes and scales. As I mentioned, music isn't just about playing the right notes, it's about feeling them and conveying emotions through them."

  She started explaining the notes, how they formed different scales, and how those scales affected the listener's emotions. Ricard listened carefully, but he couldn't help noticing the way Emma's eyes lit up when she talked about something she loved, or how her voice was soft yet full of inspiration.
