Chae Yoon, who wore the pajamas, ran to the piano with the Little Mermaid doll.
She sat on the piano chair and looked down at the keyboard quietly.
Jo Sung Hyun dried his hair briefly with a dryer.
It took less time to dry his hair than to dry Chae Yoon's hair.
After drying his hair, he sat down on the sofa as if he was collapsing.
Chae Yoon was still sitting quietly in front of the piano.
He wondered when she would play the piano and waited while looking at the child.
'She must have changed a lot after listening to The Four Seasons.'
Jo Sung Hyun felt that Chae Yoon's 'Do you want to play with the fallen leaves?' and Vivaldi's The Four Seasons were very different.
He also felt how rich Vivaldi's The Four Seasons was.
Maybe Chae Yoon felt as much as Jo Sung Hyun did.
Even if it was hard to sort it out in her head, she might have felt more than Jo Sung Hyun.
No matter how he thought about it, the child's talent surpassed his musical talent.
"I'm looking forward to it."
Jo Sung Hyun muttered quietly.
He was really looking forward to it.
How much had the child changed?
How much had the song progressed?
Before she knew what Vivaldi's The Four Seasons was, she arranged it, and now she had heard the performance himself.
How much richer could Chae Yoon's piano be?
Jo Sung Hyun was curious.
And finally.
Chae Yoon's hand started to move.
The child put her hand on the keyboard and started to tap the keys carefully.
Ting.
A small piano sound came out.
She played the sound softly on purpose because it was late.
'It starts the same.'
The beginning of the song was the same as Chae Yoon's original 'Do you want to play with the fallen leaves?'.
She thought it was wise not to change it because it was the part that set the direction and flow of the whole song.
He nodded his head and continued to listen to Chae Yoon's performance.
Ding. Ting. Tan.
The song was played smoothly.
Jo Sung Hyun made a strange expression as Chae Yoon's performance continued.
'The changed part is....'
None.
The song had progressed to the middle part, and it was about to move on to the part that expressed autumn, but there was no difference between Chae Yoon's song and the previous version.
What part did she want to change?
Did she want to explode at the last highlight part?
Jo Sung Hyun thought that way and looked at the back of Chae Yoon who was playing with anticipation.
But.
Tan....
There was no changed part until the child's performance was over.
Chae Yoon turned her head with a satisfied face and looked at Jo Sung Hyun.
"You're good. Our Chae Yoon."
"Hehe...."
He smiled as if she was happy.
Jo Sung Hyun asked the child a question.
"Chae Yoon."
"Yes?"
"Are you going to keep the song like that?"
"...?"
She blinked her eyes as if she didn't understand.
Jo Sung Hyun explained slowly.
"You know, the 'Do you want to play with the fallen leaves?' you play. It's the same as last time and this time."
"Yeah. It's the same."
"We heard a really beautiful song at the recital today, but you're not going to change it and keep it the same?"
He thought it was not a strange question, because he expected the child to revise the song.
But, Chae Yoon took it a little differently.
The child tilted her head and opened her mouth.
"Why do I have to change it?"
"Huh?"
"I just like it this way."
The child said.
Jo Sung Hyun looked at her with a blank expression.
It was a very right answer.
Why did she have to change it?
There was not a single reason to change it.
Well, because Vivaldi's The Four Seasons was better?
At least not for Chae Yoon.
Not for Jo Sung Hyun either.
The seasons that Chae Yoon expressed and the seasons that Vivaldi expressed were different.
Yeah.
It might be natural that Vivaldi's The Four Seasons was better.
But does that mean that the seasons that Chae Yoon expressed were terrible?
'No way.'
If someone said that the seasons that his daughter expressed were terrible, Jo Sung Hyun was sure that the person knew nothing about music.
"I'm sorry."
"Huh?"
The child breathed in with a confused face.
She didn't know why Jo Sung Hyun suddenly apologized.
"I thought you would definitely change the song. I'm sorry."
"Do you like it better if I change the song...?"
The child asked cautiously.
At Chae Yoon's appearance, Jo Sung Hyun shook his head firmly.
"Absolutely not. I like it better when you do what you want."
Jo Sung Hyun said sincerely.
Chae Yoon finally relaxed and giggled.
"Come here."
When Jo Sung Hyun spread his arms, Chae Yoon jumped off the piano chair and ran to Jo Sung Hyun and hugged him.
The child buried her face in Jo Sung Hyun's chest and rubbed her cheek.
Jo Sung Hyun stroked Chae Yoon's back.
He was sorry that she had cut Chae Yoon to his own standards so naturally, and he kissed the child's forehead with apology.
Then the child peeked at the piano and brought her mouth to Jo Sung Hyun's ear.
"This is a secret, but... I like daddy more than the piano and the Little Mermaid."
Chae Yoon said that and laughed.
