The Secret Pianist
His friends all noticed how he was preoccupied with his
hands. They were always clean and the nails were trimmed. When they played
football he would never play in goals. Even his friends thought he might be
effete. When sitting at table he would drum his fingers. Some people thought it
was a nervous habit. One day one of his
friends was invited to his home. He told the group later that he had a large piano and played fluently to a
high grade. Now his friends knew why he cared so much for his hands.
