"Hello, what's your name? "
"Sophia, sir" I replied.
"So, Sophia what song are you performing for us today?"
"It's not really a song sir, I'm blowing out good melodies from my flute"
"Really, so why did you choose to play an instrument, instead of singing. Of all the instruments, why did you choose a flute?", one of the judges asked.
Sophia was quite for a moment.
"My mum gave me the flute and she taught me how to play, she passed on and left me alone in this big world. When I play the flute, I feel her presence, and it happens very often".
"wow! What a touching story. So what melody are you playing for us" another of the judge asked.
"Jealous, by labyrinth, I'm jealous that's she's happy without me"
"OK , let's hear it" the first judge said.
Sophia held her flute high, with the mouth piece in her lips, she began blowing. The melodies sent chills to the crowd, everyone was quite, as she opened her eyes on intervals, she noticed two of the judges shedding tears. She felt the emotion rise up in the auditorium. This is the magic of her flute.
