MY NAME IS DAISY - NOT A BAD DUCK
33. Music Festival
The Stella Marina hotel ballroom has been transformed into a luxury stage. The seats for the audience have been arranged very neatly in a luxurious feel as well.
The screams had already started to sound from two hours before the event started. The enthusiasm of music lovers for this music festival seems very high. All seats sold out to VIP seats.
Daisy will perform in the initial session alternating with other young musicians.
Daisy has no objection to her performing at any time. For him it was the best time. Because after he finished giving his best performance, he was immediately able to enjoy the entire event featuring senior and famous musicians and singers.
"Are you nervous, Daisy?" ask Maxi backstage. She accompanies Daisy waiting for the show to open.
"Slightly nervous. But it can be overcome. I play the piano because I love it. I hope the guests who are watching also like my game later and they are all entertained" Daisy replied.
"Goodoo. I'm pretty sure your performance will be stunning" Maxi patted Daisy's hand.
"Grandfather, grandmother and all members of the Edoardo extended family are here for you" Maxi said.
"All?" ask Daisy not to believe it.
Maxi nods. "Yes, everybody. Must be present at Grandpa's behest" Maxi convinces Daisy.
"Including my two sisters and Cleo" Maxi continued.
"They're ready?" Daisy murmurs.
"Who dares to refute Grandpa's orders" Maxi said with a smile. She recalled Marie and Joane's expressions as Luca's father reminded them to get ready for the music festival. Their faces were full of annoyance but could do nothing. Because if you refuse, then the allowance is stopped for a month. Where can they with a situation without monthly allowance.
"Just calm down, this time they won't be able to bother you" whispered Maxi trying to erase Daisy's worries.
"Father is watching them" whispered Maxi again with a smile.
Daisy nodded while returning Maxi's smile.
The voice of the host on stage was talking to Mr. Jack Connor.
"Maxi, you better get back in your seat. Enjoy my performance later" Daisy said. Because his performance will start in ten minutes after the talk session with Mr. Connor is over.
"Are you okay with me leaving?"
"Look at me. Look at the many crews who helped me here" Daisy replied.
"Alright, Daisy. Enjoy and enjoy your music. The stage is yours" Maxi rubbed Daisy's arm before heading to the showroom's exit.
"Thank you, Max" Daisy waved her hand.
"At this festival you invite along a new and young piano player. In fact, most of the people here probably don't know him at all. Me included. Since I only heard his name this time in the music industry" the host stared at Mr. Connor.
"What makes you so sure to invite this new musician?" tanyakanya.
Mr. Connor smiled wisely.
"Because you will all regret not seeing and hearing the piano" replied Mr. Connor.
"Why is that?" ask the host in curiosity.
"Because I am sure you will all fall in love with the shrewdness of his fingers on the piano" replied Mr. Connor with a proud smile.
"You make us very curious, Mr. Connor" the host laughed at Mr. Connor's reply. Mr. Connor laughed softly.
"All right, Mr. Connor. Thank you for this warm conversation. Me and the audience seemed to be looking forward to seeing the performance of the best musicians of your choice" host invited Mr. Connor back to his seat.
"Alright, ladies and gentlemen. This stage will us start its splendor with the appearance of a young girl who is very talented in playing the piano. He is very new to the music industry. But Jack Connor music festival is proud to introduce and present his first performance" said the host, pointing his hand at the stage on the right where Daisy was standing next to the white piano.
Daisy slightly bowed her body towards the audience.
"Miss Daisy Fiorella Alessio Edoardo with Claude de bussy's Reverie" the host's voice accompanies Daisy's step towards her seat.
Ball room lights made dim.
Slowly the clink of the piano permeates the auditory senses of all present. Tone by tone picked makes the listener more want to hear more. After that, the clink of his piano was getting stung full of feelings.
He really enjoyed his piano playing. It was as if he was talking through the music he was playing. Tells about the happiness of his childhood with his father, mother and sister. Happy mixed with sad. Full of emotions longing that he wants to convey and also dreams of meeting his parents and sister in the future either time. It was as if the dream had ever been experienced. Occasionally he closed his eyes but his fingers remained agile and lithe playing him over the black and white keys.
The audience seemed to be carried away with the feeling of playing Daisy's piano. As if the message Daisy conveyed could they understand. They can feel what Daisy is feeling right now.
Some of those present are classical music lovers. They are amazed by new musicians who are young but able to make the heart vibrate when they hear the music.
On one of the balconies for VIPs, David was stunned by Daisy's piano playing. She barely blinked since Daisy appeared on stage to play Reverie.
"Reveries...Daiz..dia..how can he play my favorite song?" murmured David.
"He's very admirable. Not only beautiful, but this is very cool" whispered John to David.
David just nodded slowly.
"She's a girl full of surprises" David thought.
Meanwhile, in the other VIP seats. Marie looked at Daisy with an angry look. He's very envious. Daisy's piano playing managed to get her back stunned. And that pisses him off. Daisy is very cool and beautiful.
Cleo pretends to sleep, but she enjoys Daisy's classical music.
"Okay.he's really cool. She's a genius, beautiful, graceful, rich, a CEO and this is crazy. It was enough to make me suffer because I envy him. Makes it harder for me to get Maxi" Cleo thought.
The other with Joane. She is very happy and enthusiastic about Daisy's performance.
"Why was he created so perfect?" oceh Joane again.
"He's better than Marie's sister" he continued. This time Marie pulled out her ears.
"Awas you. Dare to talk like that again" Marie glared.
"Indeed the reality is so big brother" said Joane defended himself.
His father and mother put their index fingers on their lips, telling him to be quiet.
"Sssst.." hissed the mother with her strict eyes to Marie and Joane.
Joane was instantly silent regardless of Marie's threatening gaze.
Maxi did not stop smiling looking at Daisy who was very beautiful wrapped in a dress with a simple but elegant piece of dark blue.
Everyone stood applauded as Daisy finished playing Reverie. And Daisy breathes a sigh of relief, especially when Grandpa, Grandma, Maxi and all her family stand up with proud smiles including Joane, except Marie and Cleo who remain sitting in her chair. Clarissa waved her hand then raised her two thumbs while looking full of haru at Daisy.
Daisy sat down and leaned her back on the soft sofa in the waiting room. Try to relax before the appearance of both. He was initially asked to perform three times. But because time was not possible, he was only asked to appear twice. Daisy is given a twenty-minute break while waiting for the jazz singer's young man's performance to finish.
Daisy's second appearance was playing the piano and singing.
The audience seemed to be guessing what song Daisy would perform.
"This time I'm going to bring you a Beatles piece called All You Need is Love"
"This song is for you all"
Daisy's speech made the audience surprised and made a boisterous atmosphere. The golden-brown young girl brought the Beatles work.
That's very interesting.
"Woow by the Beatles" choked one of the audience.
"Let's see if it's as cool as the first one?" other audience members.
The boisterous atmosphere returned to silence as the clanking of the piano began to echo.
When the intro is finished, Daisy starts singing.
Love, love, love
Love, love, love
Love, love, love
The audience who did not think that Daisy would also sing instantly came back boisterous after hearing Daisy's melodious voice.
John approached David.
"Is she a girl or a fairy?" whisky Jhon. David just smiled at Jhon's question.
"Maybe she's one of Amare's forest fairies" David thought still with a smile decorating his face. But the instant her smile faded away remembered that Daisy was Maxi's future wife.
He really likes Daisy more and more, but he has no chance. Right now David feels like he misses the moon.
Daisy returns to playing the piano while singing with a cheerful face.
There's nothing you can do that can't be done
Nothing you can sing that can't be sung
Nothing you can say, but you can learn how to play the game
It's easy
Nothing you can make that can't be made
No one you can save that can't be saved
Nothing you can do, but you can learn how to be you in time
It's easy
All you need is love
All you need is love
All you need is love, love
Love is all you need
Love, love, love
Love, love, love
Love, love, love
