With an awkward cough, I said, "Please, miss. Don't joke around. How can a nobody like me to be worth of you? " Obviously, these words were to get rid of her for the time being. Although I like beauties, but I can't stand those clingy beauties. I have enough on my plate. I don't want to add Sasha to that plate.Since the first round was over, all of us were given some refreshments to rest for the free time. After five minutes, we were called up on the stage again for the start of the second round. Among all those who had taken part in the first round, only a handful of them remained. Because some didn't have any idea on how to play an instrument or they would miss the beat.The rules for the second round were simple. The participants were to fight against each other in this round. They can play any tune but the tune should only complement the opponent's music. The one who cannot do so would be disqualified. Obviously, the second round is hard, since the opponent would take advantage o
This continued until the end of five minutes. Miss Sasha suddenly raised her hands to denote that the time was up . Both I and the red head lowered our instruments waiting for the judges' results. One of the old guy among the three judges took a deep breath ,then he looked at both of us on the stage and said, " Both of you are talents worth cultivating. But since this is a competition ,only one among you can continue to the next round. Both of you were almost at the same level, but obviously one of you is better to become the winner of this round. And the winner of this round is Mike Williams. " Then the judge looked at the redhead and said ," Child, you were good. But you have still a long way to go. Don't lose your hope and continue to practice hard. I hope to see outstanding talents as you in the future music industry. "The red head girl nodded and said with a blank look on her face, "You are a worthy opponent. But don't be full of yourself. Today you might have won, but I promise
There have been few myths about music since the ancient times. Some say that a legendary music can make it rain even in a desert. While some say music can heal people. It is also believed that music can raise the battle spirit of the soldiers in a battle. Even if their number might be less, their battle spirit won’t let them to admit defeat. This is the power of music in legends.Maybe this is needed in a world where people are suffering. Be it supers or be it ordinary humans, all are suffering from the evil in this world.Supers are suffering because of the evil capitalists and politicians who want to control them and spewing rumours about them. While the ordinary humans are suffering because of evil supers who want to destroy humans, because they once suffered. This is the living of this world. Only suffering and pain. Sometimes it feels like this world is a world in some novel or comic, since the suffering doesn’t end, and in either comes back like Karma.After agreeing to my bet,
“Believers(medium tom X2) Believers..”, my voice echoed throughout the building. I should say almost in the entire state, because there were many who were listening to my song in the United States, so yeah. Finally, after singing for almost six minutes, my song ended. You might think I am cheating. Let me tell you I am not. At least in this world, no one has made this song. I had even edited some lyrics and music here and there. So this shouldn’t be called cheating. This is just tactics to win.When my song was over, the audience was still silent. I looked at them; they looked at me. The situation was getting awkward. So I sighed and spoke into the microphone, “What, you didn’t like my song? If you like it, applaud already. What are you all doing in a daze?” My words broke into their daze and all of them clapped. The applause was too loud that it even covered the host Sasha’s words. She was about to ask judges for their opinions, but sadly for her, the judges couldn’t hear her over th
The guide brother walked up on the stage and said while patting my shoulders ,"You did a good job, brother. I have an offer for you. “ I looked at him with curiosity. Seeing that he has caught my attention, clearing his throat he said, “Why don’t you work with our Li family? We would give you all the benefits of a first class singer. “I smiled slightly and said, “Guide brother, I respect you, but I want to gain a stronghold in the music industry by myself. If I were to join any of the factions, I would feel guilty, that’s for sure. “The guide brother nodded. I was curious about the original name of the guide brother ,so I asked, “Guide brother, what is your name? “ Guide brother smiled and said , “I am Richie Li ,the eldest son of the Li family’s patriarch. And I am a well-known singer. I thought you might recognise me.”Rubbing the back of my head in embarrassment, I said, “Sorry Brother, but I have never heard your songs. “ He was stunned for a second. He is famous all around the
Soon the musical instruments and other equipments had arrived at home. I directly asked them to move these instruments into the study room. Yes ,I had a study room too. I often study in this room. The environment was already arranged by me. I love being here. And the most important thing is that my computer is also in the study room. Then with the help of those movers we set up the equipments. The movers had also brought Sound absorbing curtains and foams to prevent the sound from going outside and the sound from outside coming inside.When everything was set up, I thanked the movers and mom even gave them some money. But they refused and said, “Sorry, Ma’am, but our young master said to help you. It is to show his sincerity. We cannot accept this money. “ With that, they went away. Watching the study room it was entirely different from what it used to be. Even the lighting was good in this room now. I smiled and started searching for some videos. Ahem, not those videos. I am speaking
Mom returned home with Celia around six in the evening. She had two large bags full of fruits and vegetables. When she saw I wasn’t alone and three of my friends were with me. Both mom and Celia greeted my friends, who returned their greetings politely. Mom walked in to the kitchen with Celia and Mia, while I ,James and Nathan watched TV. About half an hour later, mom, Mia and Celia walked out of the kitchen. They say down on the couch with us and were watching TV. Some time later, mom stood up and said ," Alright kids. Wash your hands and sit down for dinner. The dinner is hot, if you don’t eat now it will get cold. “We sat down and started eating ,only after we said our prayers. Yes, that’s what mom had taught us. Unless we say our prayers, we won’t get anything to eat. Mom is a religious person, not like those people who worship gods blindly. She is the most caring person I’ve ever seen. We chatted while eating our dinner. After the dinner, mom asked the other three how was their
When the call was connected, a polite voice came from the other side. Well, at least this person can handle anyone with such a voice. Her voice had a natural attraction to others. Well, at least I thought so. I asked if I was talking with Miss Daisy Palmer, as Brother Li told me. When she confirmed it was Daisy herself on the other side, I introduced myself. After some formal greetings, we got into business. I talked about how I just started singing and am looking for a person who can manage things for me. She was silent throughout the entire talk. At last she said , “Sir, for further talk, I think we have to meet face to face. How about evening at six in Central Park? “I didn’t have any reason to reject her, so I agreed. I had a feeling that Daisy wasn’t much optimistic about me. But I know my worth, so I started recording the song as I had decided earlier. It took me about an hour to complete the recording, since there were many parts that were missed because I was the only one wor
