"How beautiful you play." said a girl and sighed softly. I stopped playing. "Who's there, show yourself." I said. A little girl showed up in the room. Her blonde hair was curly and she was wearing a long nightdress.

"Hello honey, I'm Esme Benson." I said. "I'm Alice Evans." she replied shyly. "Nice to meet you." I said. "Can you play it again?" asked Alice. "Of course I can." I said.
