The lady played a beautiful song with her hour glassed, figured shaped violin. Before she started playing her violin again, there were a lot of obstacles she had to overcome. She was cursed  and became half woman half violin. She was very insecure with her violin-shaped body, so she didn't want to play the violin, which was her passion.

Two children leaned on her flat shoulder, giving Jessica the advice that changed her whole perspective. They told her to, "Embrace the gift that has been given to you. You were chosen to have such a beautiful instrument connected to her. Isn't it your passion?" Jessica thought hard on what they had told her, and she woke up the next morning ready to embrace. She invited people to her house and she performed for them. After she played the song, everyone cheered for her. She stopped being insecure and made her curse a beautiful add-on to her. She used her talent to bring joy to little ears. The way she played the strings of magic that came from the pearls on her neck, was quite amusing. The spring felt music clashing with the tulip background made the song even more beautiful.

1. woman and violin

8. the little characters flowing through the amazing music being brought to their ears.
