"Well, as I said earlier, mother trained me in classical piano, and that is pretty much the only instrument that I can play besides the koto," she said shrugging her shoulders. "Oh, sorry. The koto is a traditional Japanese stringed musical instrument. I haven't been playing it for very long though, just a few years upon mother's insisting. She want's me to learn the traditions of my home country."

Kurumi shook her head a bit. The more she was forced to learn about it, the more she wanted to get away.

"How about you?"

"It's really not a problem." Zara smiled sheepishly, while waving her hands in front of her to really show that it wasn't and that the bowing was not really needed.

Zara blinked. Her? Was she really asking her? "Let's see, uhm. Well, when I was a child my parents spent a lot of time with me since they got home early from work. My dad was a doctor before while my mum was a concert pianist. I guess they decided to live a normal life for a while. And I loved it when my mum played the piano, I watched as her fingers danced among the black and white keys. Then I wished I could play like her. I had piano lessons from her for quite a while and I was learning the basics. But our lessons were cut short when one day this certain letter arrived," Zara said, remembering the day when she got the letter from the mailbox like she always does and brought it along with other letters back inside to give to her mum and dad. "Erm, so there, I gave them the letters and one of them suddenly moved on its own and into the air. It ripped itself on its own and my eyes were wide with shock and amazement. Instantly, my parents hands were covering my eyes and my ears. I wondered why they had to do it before, but ever since after that they had different jobs which they wouldn't tell me off. They always came home late and I never got to finish learning piano. My mum hired a piano teacher to teach me instead. I was determined to learn so I could spend time with my mum again, hoping that when I become really great at playing the piano, we could play together." Zara explained.

Zara gave Kurumi an apologetic look for her long story. She assumed that Kurumi was probably not interested in her story and was sorry to bother her with all the details. "To make it short, I play the piano. A bit of guitar, just the chords though, I haven't learned the plucking. And flute, too since I got one as a Christmas present and my parents hired a teacher for me so that the present wouldn't be wasted." Zara summarized. "Sorry for the long story." And she, herself bowed.
