What the ghost really wanted to say...

She wanted to scream but no sound came out. Keiro simultaneously turned the lights on ..... and saw Berthy...Phew, it was just Berthy!

Berthy looked at her annoyed.

Berthy: "What is it?"

Keiro: "Why is the ghost music here?"

Berthy: "Are you talking about my ringtone?"

Keiro: "Senior Berthy, why of all songs should this piece be your ringtone?"

Berthy: "What's wrong with it? It's just a movie song.."

Keiro: "It's not a movie song, it is one of Dopin's nocturnes...Wait a minute, have you heard this being played in a movie?....."

Berthy: "Yeah it's an old movie with hijackers and some brave pilots that save the situation. What was its name again...yeah, it's called 'flight fight'."

Keiro looked it up on the internet...There seemed to be such a movie. Was this related to the ghost's regret?

Just then Pell Hugo came into their club room along with Shimlee and Rusa. He sat down in a seat and sighed.

Hugo: "I think I messed up big time."

Keiro: "So...when exactly did you start learning the piano senior?"

Hugo: "I had tried my hand in it when I was young. But I was really bad at it and dropped the whole thing. But when my father died...I felt like I should follow in his footsteps after all, and then there was his ghost too...So I joined the music club."

Keiro: "I should have known.."

If Keiro had listened to him practice at least once, this would not have happened, but she had been too busy with exams, and then there was this preconception about Hugo that had misguided her. It was too late now.

Hugo: "I wanted to become a pilot you know. Not like Dad was against it..but I thought he must have secretly felt sad that I couldn't follow in his footsteps."

Keiro stood up from her seat.

Keiro: "Say that again.."

Hugo: "He must have felt bad that I did not inherit his talent..."

Keiro: "No. That's not it senior! Berthy just told me that the nocturne he is playing is a bgm to a movie about pilots!"

Hugo stared wide-eyed.

Hugo: "You must be kidding.."

Rusa: "For real?"

Keiro: "Check this out."

Keiro opened her laptop and searched for the movie 'Flight fight'.They streamed it online and watched it for two whole hours. It was just like how Berthy had described it. A pilot who helped to save all his passengers from a hijacking. The nocturne that the ghost had played was indeed the bgm to the movie. When the movie ended Pell Hugo shed some tears.

Shimlee: "Your father was not upset that you were bad at the piano, he just wanted to tell you to bravely follow your dreams..."

Hugo: "When my father died I had withdrawn the application for the aviation school.Looks like I'll have to reapply now." He wiped his tears and smiled.

Their solemn moment was disturbed by Berthy's snoring.

Shimlee: "Does he even know what's going on?"

Keiro: "Berthy has done it again this time...He just helped solve our case."

Hugo applied for the aviation school and his father's ghost soon disappeared. And whenever he felt down or discouraged he would listen to a recording of the nocturne that his father had played after his death...
