Her eyes were closed as she played the piece in front of her, "The Light in the Piazza", and Vanya let herself drift with the music...or as much as she was able to do so. The mournful melody rose and fell from the violin she'd purchased from a pawn shop that she held, using up what was left of her money. It wasn't the nicer one she'd seen at the music store, but Vanya felt that she could easily tune it with enough TLC and maybe someday she'd save enough for the other...once she got a job, at least.
The song she played at the moment seemed somehow right to her, and she'd chosen it just as she chose many of her songs - it was emotional, full of life, and everything she'd never been able to be herself. Vanya played the song twice through, before she finally lowered the violin and took a deep breath, only to blink in surprise when she heard a knock at her door. After setting the instrument back in its case, she walked over and pulled it open.
"...Diego. Hi," Vanya said a little awkwardly when she saw her brother standing there.
