In truth people already looked at her strangely for what she would do around them. "Why would anyone feel you were showing off?" she asked softly, "You worked hard to gain the skill you have. You should share it with the world." Alice smiled softly and closed her eyes as he began to play once more. As the music began to play Alice felt her body relax. The melody…
