Tony turns a page of the catalog heβs idly browsing through. Currently, heβs laid stretched out on the sofa. Itβs comfortable. Heβll give the Aaerestadβs that but heβs too busy sulking, still recovering from earlier when Beau caught him red-handed. Tony had one hand on the top of the upright piano and a crowbar in the other as observed the instrument for weak points to figure out how the best way to pry it open so he can strip it of its stringsβ an act which Beau, much to his surprise, did not take kindly to and let him know by snatching the crowbar from him and said things he does not care to repeat.Β
Beau attempts to show him the amazon link pulled up on his phone which Tony does cast a brief glance at then heβs rolling over, turning his back to Beau and his attention is back to sports cars. Thereβs no matched enthusiasm, no oh good job, no gold star for effort. It earns Beau absolutely nothing. A rare occurrence given the fact Tonyβs usually got a comment to add.Β
Still he canβt understand it. What was it about the piano that was so damn special? Itβs only been a week since Tonyβs been forced to come and live with Beau and his family. And in that short time he has already completely dismantled their toaster, the vacuum, and even stripped the weed wacker of its gas tank β An act he thought would at least earn him a threat to get kicked out but no. Itβs the piano of all things that earns him some sort of reaction.Β
