Music was always Nico’s outlet, so in a desperate attempt to help him, I paid for music lessons at The Broken Chord almost a year ago. At first, Nico gave me a hard time about it. He was quiet and unmotivated to pick up an instrument, but with Ellie’s help, he slowly opened up again. For a solid four months, it felt like Nico and I were finally in a good place together, but then we had another setback at the start of the year. One that I haven’t been able to overcome, no matter how hard I try.
