Title: Tuts (Part 1)

_________________________

Love has a tone. Hidden behind the tuts. Revealed by a pair of hands with ten fingers. Not through the brain, but through the heart, the taste and the taste of love. The tones were shackled behind the keys, forcing the man who was drunk with love to parse him in an irregular, yet beautiful sound.

Love is the tone.

– Tuts –

Part I

'What is this?' vero asks Venus, his lover, about the book Venus gave him.

'That is love.'

Vero opened the book. A tone book that has been decorated with a series of beam notes. The title says, 'Tuts V and V'.

'The word people, love is a series of feelings that cannot be expressed precisely with words. But I don't completely agree. I think love is a series of tones expressed in a melody. The flow of love is a incarnation. Because the sound is from you.'

Vero felt very moved. It holds Venus, like it holds millions of suns. Venus is the light. Venus is the heat. Venus is a dream come true. Venus is her love.

'Thank you, Ve. Can I hear it now?'

Venus smiled, 'Patience yes, there is a time.'

'When?'

'Next week, Saturday, here.'

'In here? In the piano classroom?'

Venus just nodded.

—

'Ma, I go first huh' said Vero while kissing both sides of his mama's cheeks.

'You are so beautiful. Where are you going, anyway?'

'You meet Venus!' He answered with spirit.

'Be careful, yes!'

'Yup! Say hello to papa!'

Vero carried the four-wheeled vehicle at a rapid rate. He almost broke the traffic signal. Upon arrival at the college, Vero immediately ran towards the piano class. The closer to that place, the more his heart pounded. It's not unusual for her to pound like that just to meet Venus. Now the room is in front of him. Still closed. It's slow.

'Ve?!' Call him from outside the door. But there's no answer.

He opened the door slowly. And how surprised he was to see the order in the room, as if struck by magic. On the floor are white rose petals. Two candles on the piano, and a few candles on the corner sides of the room. The windows are left open, making the afternoon sunlight dance beautifully on the sides of the room. On one side of the wall was a wide white cloth adorned with red rose petals, green leaves, yellow star leaves, a picture of Venus there, and an inscription, 'Happy Birthday to Vero-ku'.

Vero entered the room and walked towards the piano. He sat down in his chair and saw a paper tucked inside the tone book that Venus had given him. He pulled the paper.

- For Vero, though,

Happy Birthday Dear.

Hope you like this surprise.

But this is just the opening.

There will be a surprise next.

Hope you like it.

Wait for me, yeah.

Venusian.

The twilight began to pass. Venus has not yet come. But Vero never tired of waiting for him. For some reason the wind suddenly blew through the door. Vero hurried to close the door and sat down. He took the book. Look at the notes there. Then open the piano and start playing its notes.

That's very beautiful music. The tone filled each side of the room.

And suddenly the door opened. Vero stopped playing the piano. He looked at the door. It looks so dark out there.

'Ve's? That you?'

There's no answer. However, a long shadow entered the room. I don't know who the owner is.

'Ve, don't joke.'

A person with a black coat entered the room and closed the door. Vero recognized the man.

'My father surprised me. What are you doing here?'

The man did not answer. He's silent. The overcast sky outside sent out a flash of lightning, illuminating the room for a moment. The man's coat was covered in blood. In his hand was clasped tightly to a hammer. Vero was scared. He started to move away from the piano.

Suddenly the man ran to attack him. The hammer hit the piano keys. Vero ran towards the door, but the man managed to pull his hair. He threw Vero into the piano. The book fell.

Vero tried to resist, but his resistance was defeated with a hammer blow, right on the head. It slammed into the back. He grabbed a piano chair. But unfortunately, when he was about to throw it, the man had already snatched and smashed the chair at Vero. Vero is back.

Now there is only one way out. He ran there. Stand up for a moment. And once again, a flash of light illuminated the sky. The vile man's face was clearly drawn there.

He jumped. Unhesitatingly. Without fear. She believes Venus will catch her down there.

'That's story! So, the kids at this college believe, if we can play those notes, we'll be taken somewhere. There we will meet many people, but we must seek and find our true love. Well, if he wants to come with us, we have to play that song together with him. That way, we can return to our world by bringing true love!' remi.

'So if we fail?' ask Cello.

'Have you finished! If you just play the wrong time you want to start, yes 'nothing will happen. But if you can play it right, then you have to be careful. You won't be able to stop the game. You have to finish the mission. And if you fail, you'll be a tuts. Replacing the lost keys!' arta said with a serious face.

'Seriously lu?!' exclaim Cello.

Remi and Arta looked at each other. They furrowed their eyebrows. Then I went back to seeing the cello. And,

'HAHAHAHAHAHA!'

'Oh my God El! You've over-dosed on the girl times huh! Ahaha! You believe that anyway?! It's just a kale rumor!' exclamation Arta.

'But the room and the piano do exist, ' Remi said.

'You want to go to the cave again?'

'No. That room does exist. Even the tone book was still there. How many times have the book and piano been moved, but still back to the room. If this one, the cave does not dare to joke. You can ask the janitor and the night watchman.'

'Where is the room?'

'At the very back of campus. Old building, third floor. The room at the far right, ' said Arta.

—

That night, Cello kept thinking about the story of the 'tuts. I don't usually think of stories like that. However, his humanity pushed out his curiosity. 'Want to know' is outrageous. He couldn't sleep that night. Acute insomnia for two days.

A few days later, he finally satisfied his curious desire. Now he was standing right in front of the door of the piano room. Outside it looks like writing, 'Bidden to enter'. Strangely, the more forbidden, the more he wanted to enter.

He's holding the door knob. Suddenly his heart was racing. But the curiosity that passed, made him turn the knob. Door opens. The wind blew out, sweeping across his body, making the feathers all over his hands stand upright.

The room was quite cluttered, but not too bad. He saw a piano in the middle of the room. He approached. The piano is obsolete. Paint peeling. There are parts that are scuffed, dented, and some look crumpled. Many of his keys are already lost, as Remi and Arta tell us. That book. Yes, the book really exists.

Cello sat down on the chair and took the book carefully. Open it.

First sheet:

- Play the notes.

Time will run.

Find your true love there.

Play back those notes.

Beginning to end.

End to beginning.

Both. Together.

And bring home your true love.

On the seventh twilight, if you fail, if you fail,

you'll complete the lost keys.

The cello flipped the first sheet, and saw a series of beam notes there. He was curious about the sound of his song. He looked at the remaining keys on the piano, then observed the notes. This is really weird. The remaining tuts can be used to play the whole notes in the book.

His hands will soon mamawinkan song. But stopped. Something whispered softly in his mind. Saying, 'don't rush'. Cello took a deep breath. He also remembered the stories of his two heroes. He almost became a tuts.

Cello closed the book and took it home.

—

'Seriously, this book is from inside that room?!' Remi and Arta took turns when they saw the tone book located on the table. They don't want to touch him.

'Didn't you read the title song? 'Tuts V and V'. Same with your story at the time!'

'Crazy you, yeah! How desperate you are! What a life you are!' fun Remi.

'Uh, you guys say, this book 'can't be separated from that piano. But, it's been two days, this book there's the same cave.'

'You're in your right mind, El! Quickly you re-enter that book!'

'Maybe 'there's no harm in the cave trying to prove the rumors of this 'tuts' story. You can find the true love of the cave!'

Cello reread the words written on that first page. His two friends were busy telling him to return the book.

'Oh, what does this sentence mean? Play back those notes. Beginning to end. End to beginning. Keep this up, at dusk seven. What means?!'

Remi and Arta paid attention to the sentence. Everybody thought.

'Maybe gini. After you meet your love, you both must play the song together. From the beginning until it was over. Then play again but from the end until the beginning, ' Remi replied.

'At the seventh twilight. Maybe that means you are only given seven days, and the game ends at dusk on the seventh day, said Arta.

'It's not a trivial thing, El! If the story turns out to be true, you could die if you fail!' fun Remi.

Cello thought. He knew the story could not be ignored. But, the more he was afraid, the stronger his curiosity became. The humans.

'This afternoon, you two accompany the cave there huh! Please!!'

Remi and Arta looked at each other. Then I went back to seeing the cello.

'Lu have hp, right?' ask Arta.

'If the story is true, you should tell us as often as possible. Understand!' fun Remi.

'OK! The two of you are indeed the coolest caveman!'

'But remember El! Seven days. And you must promise, you will return with your true love!'

That afternoon after the campus was deserted, the three of them sneaked into the old building at the back. Go up to the third floor, towards the piano room on the right end. The closer the room got, their hearts were increasingly struggling. And now they're standing at the door. Somehow the heat in the afternoon, replaced by a cold wind. Horror.

Cello holding the door knob.

'Lu must return El!' fun Remi.

'If anything happens, let us know!'

'Yoy!'

The three of them hugged tightly. After that, without hesitation Cello turned the door knob, opened it, and went inside. Not long ago, the door was immediately closed. He tried to open it, but it was free. By then he knew the game was about to start.

Carefully, the cello sat in front of the piano. Put the book in its place. Before he started, he prayed first. No matter what happens, you have to be ready. His finger touched the keys. His eyes looked carefully at the notes in the book. He tried to play it at home. And now, the music of 'Tuts V and V' flows through his fingers. What a beautiful music. Full of love. It is also swept up in every tone.

DONE IT.

Cello looked around. But nothing has changed. All exactly the same. He played those notes correctly. Perhaps true, the story was just plain gossip. With relief, Cello stood up. Walk towards the door lightly. And when the door opened, it turned out that his two spirits were still there. They were kidding.

'Bro!!' The cello immediately grabbed the shoulders of the two of them.

And, LOST.
