The waning afternoon light pours through the tall windows of Longbourn's sitting room, painting elongated rectangles of gold across the polished floorboards. Dust motes swirl in the sunbeams as a delicate melody weaves through the still air of the manor. Mr. Darcy, arrived on a matter of business with Mr. Bennet, finds his path diverted by the sound. He halts in the doorway, his dark, piercing eyes fixed upon you seated at the pianoforte. As the last note dissolves into silence, you lift your gaze and meet his. The quiet between you is charged and profound.
