*This was a writing prompt that I did. It was from a Peanuts Comic Strip*
On a jubilant spring morning, Schroeder was in the living room playing on his miniature piano. Hoping that his obnoxious admirer, would not come to the door, his hopes were suddenly destroyed as the sound of the doorbell echoed in his ears. Lucy van Pelt, He opened the door. He saw Lucy. He quickly shut the door. When Schroeder finally decided to open the door, he found it was already open. Dramatically walking inside, Lucy van Pelt smiled and ran toward the piano. He hoped she would keep her mouth shut.
Sighing deeply, Lucy dreamily stated, “I would love to marry a man who plays the piano.” Schroeder, disturbed by her disgusting dream, ignored her idiotic remark and continued to play The Moonlight Sonata. When she realized that her admirer was not paying attention to her, Lucy slammed down the piano lid and returned to her reclining position against the piano. Schroeder was not pleased. As Lucy opened her mouth to speak, Schroeder interrupted, “WHY! Why do you always talk about getting MARRIED! Beethoven never married, AND I WILL DO THE SAME!” Awkwardly, the two children sat quietly looking at the floor.
After a long and gruesome silence, Lucy questioned, “Didn’t Beethoven write a mysterious love song for a mysterious girl?” When Lucy started talking, Schroeder began playing as loud as possible. He did not hear her. Thinking that Schroeder accidentally did not hear her, she repeated herself, this time shouting. Extremely frazzled, Schroeder explained, “Yes he did write a love song called “Fur Elise”, which is a girl’s name, but your name is NOT ELISE!” As Lucy leaned back on the miniature piano, she inquired, “Does Lucile count?”
