The rhythmic tapping of her fingers against the piano keys was the only sound in the room. Clara was practicing a particularly challenging passage from Beethoven's Sonata Pathétique, her mind focused only on the music.

The notes flowed from her, weaving a tapestry of sound that filled her with a sense of quiet fulfillment.
