Will's Happy Tune

Will could whistle any tune. He sat on the garden wall and whistled a bright little song.

Rose listened. Her tight chest loosened.

"Try humming," Will said. "You don't have to be loud."

Rose hummed one note, then two. Will whistled along.

Music, Rose thought, is like sunshine you can hear.
