Chapter 187 of the cellphone novel: Secondhand Memories by Takatsu

We walked in silence for a while.

The twinkling lights in the neighbourhood slowly one by one were snuffed out, like candles.

But yet, this was not a depressing thought. As people turned off their lights, the night would gently embrace everyone with peace.
Hush. The night was our lullaby.

I glanced at my handphone. It was 12 already. I hadn’t realized I had spent so much time in the hospital.

“It’s really late isn’t it?” I asked no one in particular.

Calliphony 

CALLIPHONY: The melodious and harmonious sounds - manifested inextricably within the collectively blissful embodiment of pregnantly joyful euphony.

CALLIPHONY is the as of yet uncoined and obviously absent opposite of the well known adjective CACOPHONY, (which is currently notably lacking in any other accurately or articulately quotable antithesis).

ORIGIN of CALLI-PHONY: Roots come from the Greek words CALLI and CACO, meaning 'Beautiful' and 'Ugly' when used to preface the nouns in following examples, be appended hither & thither-to.

Opposite: CACO-PHONY
They entered the chamber to final embrace,
At a patently perfect and pertinent pace,
All created completed and cultured around,
A divinely and oddly indelible sound,
Now a totally manifest audible hit,
It's exquisitely carved of incredible shit,
It's a sound that we've claimed,
Supersonically named -
And collectively
Now
Call...
CALLIPHONY!

Definition: C A L L I P H O N Y !
Opposite: CACO-PHONY

CALLI-GRAPHY & CACO-GRAPHY Beautiful and visually distasteful Handwriting).

As in: His beautiful and painstakingly penned Ancient Celtic CALLIGRAPHY brought as much joy and light into the classroom as her unattractive scrawls and CACOGRAPHICAL scribblings took from it.
