Chapter 1 A False Identity
It was hot in Melcester in June. The tarmac was shrouded in a veil of heat in the scorching sun, so no one was willing to come outdoor.
Myrna Stark dragged her packed luggage out of the
room.
Before she came down, she heard Stephanie Stark’s voice from downstairs.
“Dad, Mom, are Myrna’s biological parents coming to pick her up?”
Myrna’s foster father, Luther Stark, responded sternly, “It’s none of your business. Have you mastered the piano music you’ll play later? Your grandma’s friend will come from Nemmington. She’s a professor at Hebbury College of Art and a national piano virtuoso. If you play the piano well, your grandma will talk to her friend, and you’ll be able to be admitted to the university in
Nemmington.”
