I Am Yours, Mr Chevalier!
Part 93's
Doubtfully Mia pressed the doorbell of the pink painted mansion before her several times. Occasionally he allowed a violin bag attached to his back. Then rub the rest - the rest of the snow stuck in his coat.
A woman in the uniform of a housekeeper opened the door for her. As if waiting for her arrival, the woman let Mia in. Then deliver the girl to a room similar to the class in a pre-school.
A long-haired, tanned boy was busy compiling small, colorful blocks. Next to her was an afro-American woman accompanying him.
"Ah, Miss Kusuma?" the woman asked as she became aware of Mia's presence.
"Yes" answered Mia, leaning her violin bag against the wall and greeting the woman.
"I'm Jackelyn." The woman named Jackelyn welcomed Mia's hand. "Okay, I'll leave you with Daren, if you need anything, you just push the transmitter button, yes" she said, pointing to a red round object with three buttons in the middle, which is stuck on the wall.
Mia nodded in understanding. As soon as the woman left him alone with the boy who was still busy with the toy block, Mia immediately approached the owner of the tiny body.
"Hi, you must be Daren," Mia crouched down in front of Daren who was looking at her in surprise.
"I'm Mia, I'm your violin teacher." Mia extended her hand. Hearing the word violin, Daren's eyes no longer showed astonishment. Mia's hand was immediately welcomed.
"Do you have the violin?"
"Yash." Eagerly Daren moved from his seat and picked up the small 1/8-brown violin on the violin stand. Complete with his bow.
"Wow, great, Daren." Mia took the violin from Daren's little hand and examined it.
Stradivarius.
Mia swallowed her saliva. An expensive brand that could not possibly be bought by him. No matter how hard he works.
"Okay, Daren .. are you ready?" mia asked as she handed the little violin to Daren. Then take his own violin.
"Daren, stand in front of me huh," Mia ordered. Daren nodded. Then walk towards him.
"Put your violin like this," Mia guided Daren's hand to put the tip of her violin over her shoulder close to her neck. Putting his chin on chinrest . Then bend the boy's arm to touch Daren's tiny fingers on the four-row string.
"This is called a bow" Mia explained as she lifted the violin swipe with a length of about 30 cm. Then show Daren how to hold the device properly.
"Put the end of your bow over the strings, Daren."
Daren followed Mia's instructions obediently.
"From the top string, G, then D ... A and E, you can try, Daren."
Patiently Mia explains and guides Daren to basic violin lessons. The handsome boy quickly followed. Yes, of course, who is his father. Must be the blood of the musician flowing in his body.

Mia pressed the transmitter button to call baby sitter Daren. The lesson of the day was over.
"When will we meet again?" daren asked with her lisp voice.
"Next friday, Darren. Don't forget to keep practicing yes," said Mia while stroking her cubby cheek.
Shortly thereafter, baby sitter Daren appears.
"You're done, Miss Kusuma?" ask Jackelyn.
"Emm . yes," Mia replied as she stuffed the violin into her bag, then carried it on her back.
"See you next week, Daren." Mia waved her hand towards Daren.
"See yes, Mia," he said as he welcomed Mia's hand.
After saying goodbye to Jackelyn, Mia stepped out of Daren's playroom. Down the long hallway to the living room. Where she crosses paths with Ben who just walked into the house. His chest was pounding, no, not anything, just because this man before him was the frontman of The Rebelion, which he had only seen on television, social media and other media.
"Owh, hi .. emmm ...." Ben thought for a moment.
"Mia" said Mia.
"Ah, yes Mia, sorry I can't remember your name." Ben stroked his nape, awkward. "You done with Daren?" tanyanya.
"Yes, Daren's a smart kid, he's quick to catch the lesson I'm giving."
Ben just nodded.
"Excuse me," said Mia. To pull the door handle, and ..
"Mia, have you ever played at Belly Bar, Brooklyn?" ask Ben.
Mia looked. "Emm .. yes, why?"
"It's okay" Ben replied, making Mia squint her forehead. "See you later" he said, passing in front of the girl.
Mia flicked her shoulders, then pulled the door handle and stepped out of the mansion.

"You teach Ben Chevalier's violin?" Brandon exclaimed as Mia finished telling him her new job.
Today Funeralopolis' training schedule, as usual, all four are at Will's house.
"How can you?" ask Will. The young man who is looking for Mia's roommate, Ashley, is busy tuning her bus.
"Long story." chuckled Mia while sipping a glass of hot chocolate made by Will's mother.
"Hey, this is a good opportunity, you can ask Ben for help to introduce us to the music producers." Graham interrupts.
"Oh, no, no .. I don't dare" Mia said quickly.
"Well, why not?" Brandon and Will are together.
Mia shakes. "I only spoke once or twice with him, it would be strange to ask him for something like this."
Will looked at Mia for a moment. Then his smile spread.
"Ben Chevalier's a widower, isn't he?" will asked, making his three best friends twitch their foreheads, astonished. "You're pretty enough, Lammy .. if you know what I mean." Will raises - raises both eyebrows.
"Owh, stop, Will!" Now Brandon is crying out. Detecting the crazy idea that was on the head of that long curly-haired youth.
"Crazy!" Mia came calling. Then he got up from his seat, and sat back down next to Brandon.
Will and Graham looked at the two with a look of ignorance.
"You both .. are dating?" will asked, alternately pointing at Mia and Brandon. Both cheeks look red.
"Oh, no, no. . we're not!" call both at the same time. Welcomed by Will and Graham.
Mia grunted in annoyance. "We started training?" he grabbed the violin lying on the floor. Without caring about the gazes - the suspicious gazes of the two young men.
