He loved the melodious sound; it always kept him amused more than ever.
It reminded him the days she was curdled by her mother, he watched her suckle her mother's breasts. Attracted by her beauty he thought of giving her his flute.

Michael was charmed and engulfed in the resonance of her musical tunes as he watched her play the flute. Her beauty was not a flatter, but a harmony of the imaginative and creative sound of her flute.

Young Sophia was very stubborn, but the skillful lyrics of her flute made her unique; It turned out a remedy to her anger and a succor in her shambles. Before now, Michael had tons of reasons to rain Sophia with scolding remarks until the advent of Sophia's journey with the flute.

Tragedy hit! The treasured gift; Sophia's flute is missing. Tears ran through her cheeks. She could not fathom losing her precious flute. She feels empty...she now recalls the past: Uncle Michael gave it to me at my 5th birthday, he will be angry when he returns. Sophia cried aloud, she could not defend her plague as her memories haunt her everyday. Her companion flute is lost!
