Chapter 982 Breakthrough
When Tessa was done going through her notes, Gregory also completed his homework. Later, Tessa had initially intended to take Gregory to wash up and rest.
Nevertheless, Gregory wasn’t sleepy. Instead, he tugged Tessa’s hand and said he wanted to talk to his baby sister. Tessa naturally couldn’t bring herself to refuse.
After a while, Gregory’s innocent remarks echoed throughout the room. He shared his daily life with the baby in the hope that the baby would become more familiar with him.
Meanwhile, Tessa looked at him fondly. At that moment, she only felt that days like these were peaceful and beautiful.
When it was almost time to rest, Tessa urged Gregory to turn in for the night.
Unfortunately, he still wanted to talk to the baby more and was reluctant to part with his baby sister.
“Mommy, let me talk to the baby sister for a while longer.”
Although she felt amused, she still coaxed him, “That’s enough for today. Rest early. I’ll take you out for a walk tomorrow and invite your Godmother to join us too.”
Gregory jumped for joy when he heard that he was going to have an outing with Tessa.
“Okay. I’ll go to sleep now.”
Right after he had said that he was already laying down on the bed.
When she looked at the excited Gregory, she chuckled softly. Then, she wished him good night and left to retire for the night.
…
The following day, Mona came bright and early.
“Greg, I’m here to see you.”
As soon as she entered, she went straight to Gregory and hugged him.
Gregory returned the hug with a bright smile on his face.
He was really fond of Mona.
Later, the three set off to go shopping after they had their breakfast. They ate, drank, and had fun.
They also went to the amusement park in the afternoon.
Due to her pregnancy, Tessa couldn’t get on the rides with Gregory. So it was Mona who took care of Gregory the whole time.
Even so, Gregory was having a blast.
Moreover, he would share his experiences for each ride he played with Tessa.
Suddenly, an inspiration sparked in Tessa’s mind while she was staring at her son, who was having a good time, and the laughter of the others around her.
In an instant, she took out the pencil she carried with her and wrote down the thoughts that had just arisen.
She composed a song that carried a little bit of childlike melody yet a deep meaning after she returned home that evening.
The next day, Tessa took Gregory to the orchestra.
She couldn’t wait to show Sofia the song she’d composed last night.
“Miss Sofia, can you help take a look at this song? I composed it based on my sudden inspiration when I went out to have fun yesterday.”
When Sofia heard Tessa’s barely concealed excitement, she took the score and looked at it with a serious demeanor. She also hummed a few melodies while she was looking through it.
On the other hand, Tessa looked at her expectantly.
After a while, Sofia put down the music score and praised her, “Not bad. This song has a light tempo and a childlike vibe. However, I can see your expectations for your child if we interpret the song a little in-depth.”
“Miss Sofia, you’re really amazing. You can see through the inspiration of my music just with one glance.”
Tessa beamed with joy when she received Sofia’s compliments. However, she also didn’t forget to compliment Sofia in return.
Sofia burst into laughter before saying, “Flatterer. Did you have one of Greg’s honey-flavored candies today?”
“No, Miss Sofia, I’ve always been as sweet as sugar.”
Tessa looked at Sofia cheekily and asked, “Miss Sofia, is there anything that needs to be amended in this song?”
“Yes, there are still a few parts that need to be revised.”
Then, Sofia pointed out a few flaws in the song to her.
Tessa was open to criticism from her teacher as she took a notebook to jot down the essential details.
After a while, Sofia praised Tessa again when the lesson was over, “Your music style has a breakthrough this time, so you’ll have one more element to consider in the future when you’re composing. Moreover, the compositional technique you applied in your song this time is more sophisticated than the previous song. Keep up the good work.”
“I will, Miss Sofia.”
Tessa nodded and turned back to the practice room.
Perhaps because her newly composed song had gained Sofia’s affirmation, Tessa was full of motivation in her subsequent musical training.
The training ended at noon, and Tessa was preparing to return home with Gregory.
Yet, she didn’t expect the surprise that awaited her when she stepped out of the Sofia Symphony building.
She saw Nicholas standing tall and straight at a spot not far away from them. With his long slender legs wrapped in his black suit pants, he exuded a noble and ethereal temperament from head to toe.
“Daddy!”
At the same time, Gregory also took notice of Nicholas. He screamed in surprise as he darted over to Nicholas like a small cannonball.
Tessa followed behind Gregory with a violin. The smile on her face was exceptionally bright as she, too, was delighted to see Nicholas.
After Nicholas caught Gregory in his arms, he immediately went to embrace Tessa.
