Soon after, the owner cover with their wine first. Elyse lifted the glass to her nose and inhaled deeply. The
enticing aroma made her eager to taste it.
Suddenly, a cold sensation of danger brushed against her back.
Startled, Elyse scanned the room cautiously for any signs of threat.
Irving, with his wine in hand, noticed her actions and asked, “What's going on?”

Irving gave her a quick look and teased, “You're all bundled up. Who'd notice your pretty face?”
Elyse gritted her teeth. “That's not what | meant.”
Irving gazed out the window and said, “It’s quite cold today. Looks like it might snow.”
Elyse let out a sigh. “There's already plenty of snow on the ground. We don’t need more.”
Leaning on one hand, Irving said, “But isn’t there something special about playing the violin in the snow?”
Elyse looked at him, both stunned and curious. “Irving, you really think that?”
She took another sip from her glass.
In an instant, that strange sense of killing intent enveloped her back again.
Quickly, Elyse set down her glass and turned around. The other guests were merely enjoying their meals,
nothing amiss.
Elyse started to question herself. Was she just being overly sensitive or self-centered?
Irving, oblivious to her discomfort, was still gazing out the window.
Lost in thought, Elyse was suddenly distracted by the sound of piano music filling the restaurant.
Everyone's attention was drawn to the music.
Elyse turned her head curiously toward the music. The pianist was a man donned in a knitted hat and a green
checkered scarf, his face nearly hidden.
Yet, Elyse recognized the melody.
Perhaps encouraged by the wine, Elyse approached the pianist and asked, “Hello, would you like to play

The man looked up, his eyes reflecting surprise and shyness, and murmured, “What piece do you want to play?”
Elyse asked, “Can you play ‘He's A Pirate’?”
He nodded and answered with a few introductory notes.
Elyse nodded, clearly surprised. “Yes, that’s it. Just givea moment.”
She hurried back to her seat, popped open her violin case, and under the watchful, expectant gazes of the
crowd, she approached the pianist.
Irving observed Elyse quietly, even pulling out his phone to capture the moment for her. Elyse and the man
looked at each other, an immediate mutual understanding passing between them, and they began to play in
unison.
“Wow, it's incredible.” An onlooker in the restaurant, enthralled by the performance, couldn't help but exclaim.
Irving wasn’t the only one recording; nearly everyone had their phones out, eager to capture the beautiful duet.
Soon, they reached the stirring climax of the piece, blending delicacy with intensity. Elyse masterfully captured
the mood, her playing resonating with strength and emotion in the crowd.
