      Miia ajatteli Lauraa, joka oli keskittynyt pianonsoittoon koko lapsuutensa. Ilmeisesti aika tavis, mutta aavistuksen ernu intensiivisen harrastuksensa takia.
      Miia thought of Laura, who had focused on playing the piano her entire childhood. Apparently kind of a normie, but a little bit of a standout because of her intensive hobby.
