con tenerezza - with tenderness
Nerves flutter in the pit of her stomach, manifesting into a slight shake in her hands as she rests them on the keys. Her skin is heated, cheeks burning at the feeling of so many pairs of eyes on her and only her—friends, family, professors, teachers.
Breathe in, breathe out, she reminds herself.
But there’s warmth in her chest, kind and gentle, feeling the love that rests in every single gaze—knowing that everyone here is here for her.
Because they love her.
Slowly, she closes her eyes and starts to play.
