SOPHIA'S FLUTE

Her Mum tried her best to make sure Sophia didn't get too distracted from school due to her love for music.
Sophia was a stammerer who rarely spoke to others about anything, because she was scared of being laughed at by those that had little or no patience to wait till she could finish her sentence.
she never had a problem with her inability to communicate and socialize because she had her means of communication. This was her FLUTE.


This was her best friend, Sophia could forget her notes and writing materials at home but then her flute was always the first to get inside her bag everyday as she arranged for school. Most of her classmates in the quest to understand why she loved the flute do much made up many stories about how the flute came about. Sophia never gave heed to their thoughts, she would sit under the shade of the mango tree in school during breaks and free periods and blow her flute passionately.
While blowing her flute one day, the school principal who was passing got interested and decided to sponsor her to specialize on her music career abroad.
