After the adults finished bickering, Leo carried the girl to her room and gave her a change of clothes and left the room. Although her uniform was fine it was covered with dust and Lily was a clean-freak just like her parents. The little girl even gave herself a wet sponge cleaning before she slowly walked out of her room.
Leo noticed that expression was calmer now and she was not limping. Yes, her pace was slow but it wasn’t because of pain, but caution.
She had just taken a fall and she was just worried not to make it worse. Leo saw it but didn’t say anything to her, she would learn on her own. The family took seats around the dining table and Lily was surprised and asked, "Baba, why is this cell spicy and heavy food?"
Leo chuckled and said, "Don’t you usually clamor to eat these?"
Lily nodded and said, "But that is when I am not hurt."
Fragrance was helping herself with a serving and she burst into laughter as she said, "Love , you are so cute."
Lily was confused and her father said, "It is just a scratch. You don’t have a fever or an upset stomach. Why would there be any dietary restriction?"
The little girl was left speechless. Then she forgot about everything and ate her Favorite food with great relish and when she finished , she looked at her father and remarked, "Baba, if your skills kept improving like this then in the future you might be able to conquer the aliens with just a spatula."
Leo chuckled and Fragrance laughed while the twins followed just because the rest were laughing.
Leo remarked , "Such a praise from the little goblin. I must have improved a great deal then."
Then he helped the twins burp before putting them to sleep. It was late in the afternoon but they would need a nap after playing with their aunt. Leo then checked on Lily and found her on the small work table as she worked on her homework. Taking the opportunity Leo headed to the study and meditated to perfect his internal visualisation model.
In the evening, he did another round of the house. He found Lily sitting in front of the piano. He asked her, "What happened baby?"
Lily shook her head and replied, "I don’t know what to say, but when I was sitting at the work table, I suddenly thought about a new song."
Leo nodded and then he sat down next to her on the stool and asked, "So, what do you have in mind?"
Lily hummed for a bit and said, "I was thinking about a little bird that cannot fly to the sky yet, but he is born with a yearning for it. The yearning to fly and to feel the wind under its wings is so strong that he would not mind leaving his nest once he is strong enough to fly.
I want to play a song about this yearning for the sky, we humans must have something to yearn for too, right? It could be success, could be love, could be something that makes us want to go out of the house where we have spent our entire lives. No? "
Leo nodded and after some thought he said, "That is good for a start, but what about the rest? Would you leave the flight in the middle? Is the motive just to chase the thing that you yearn for?"
Lily tilted her head and replied, "Hmmm, well, that is true, but I didn’t think of that, you did, so why not you write a song about what happens to the people after they have successfully chased the goals? While I write about how they chase it?"
Leo smiled and agreed, and then he said, "I will go and play the wireless keyboard in my study, while you can use this piano here. When we have finished, whatever we have written, we will play them together, what say?"
Lily nodded and then Leo kissed her forehead and went to his study. He had a portable keyboard because, why not? Lily had asked him to buy an instrument that she could take to the school once, but when the Piano teacher saw her talent and skill, Lily won the first seat of her age group.
Leo didn’t know what Lily was going to write, but he knew what he wanted to do, and the same was true for Lily. None of the two people disturbed each other, and using all the knowledge of music and sentiments that they had or could express, they wrote down a rough draft in thirty minutes, and then they began to refine it.
Fragrance came out and was surprised to see that Lily was writing a score on the sheet and she was making constant changes to it. She wanted to ask what was going on but she could not get herself to disturb the little girl, and thus sat down on the couch watching her.
Soon the twins also woke up and came down from the first floor with the bots, and they also sat down beside Fragrance to watch their eldest sister working on something with almost world shattering focus.
Evening had turned to night, Anastasia and Snow had also come back, and while the latter checked on Lily silently, the older lady asked, "Where is Leo, I don’t see him."
Alpha bowed slightly from the side and replied, "Master is working on a music score in the study."
The family raised their eyebrows, they had no idea what was going on but the ladies were certainly anticipating the music that these two would come up with. Snow sighed and said, "I feel like picking up my Violin and playing along with them."
Fragrance smiled and replied, "How about you ask your husband to write an accompaniment for you and then you can play it? No?"
Snow smiled brightly and the two had a high five. Just when the clock chimed, Leo came down from the study holding a few music sheets and Lily also sighed in relief at this time before she looked at him and smiled as she asked, "Shall we play now?"
