Musical Reminder

I let the melody surround me as I played.
I hadn't even liked the guy.
Okay, not at first.
But the last twenty-four hours when I'd been stuck with him....
I'd grown....fond. And I don't grow fond of people that quickly.
I frowned, adjusting the melody on the piano, from angry to more melancholy.
I hadn't liked him.
But....we'd had a few similar interests.
Like the piano. I glanced down at the ivory keys, remembering his own hands flying over them just hours before. Hours. It felt like a lifetime. How could a man have changed my life so quickly. How could he have found a place in my limited circle of admiration to stand. We'd been so different. Yet...I'd liked him.

I exhaled, letting the melody drift to a close.
And now....I would never see him again.
