Semua Bab The Heart's Rhythm: Bab 1 - Bab 6

“Hey, are you sure you’re okay? You’re still pale, how many days has it been?” I spaced out in front of me, not hearing anything at the moment. Until I felt something cold on my cheek, I jumped from my seat and slightly trembled. I looked at Alison in horror, and she eyed me curiously, baffled by my reaction. “Don’t do that again,” I huffed a breath, and took the water bottle in her hands. “What is wrong with you? You’ve been like that for a week. Did something happen back on the last day of the orientation?” “No. Nothing happened” “Then, are you not feeling well? You looked paler than usual these days,” she says.God, I wish I could tell her. I wish I could tell someone and ask for help, but I’m getting paranoid with each passing day. The scene from that night at the park is still fresh in my mind, not wanting to be forgotten like it was a living threat.His words in an eerie voice keeps ringing in my ear, and I kept getting anxious.The rumors of the mass c

“Again! Yen, mind the tempo, please.” Ugh, damn. I groaned in frustration, dropping the drumsticks on the monobloc chair near me. We’ve been trying to sync sounds for the past two hours and we haven’t achieved anything at all. Even with the aircon blasting inside the room, I was still dripping in sweat, and my wrists are already starting to hurt. “Hiro, let’s take a break. We can’t keep going on like this,” Lev suggested calmly, standing up from his seat in front of his keyboard. I can’t believe it is this hard to sync in with everyone during actual practice with a band. I keep losing my rhythm, messing up the tempo, and out-sounding the melody carrier. This is embarrassing. I was so confident that I will do well! “Ah, my fingers hurt.” I heard Boaz mumble before putting his guitar down. Seon also removed the sling from his shoulder and put his guitar down. Hiro was wiping his sweat while drinking water from his tumbler. Lev proceeded to review the piece arrangement. I, on the

“Yo, that was dope! Nice one, Yen.”Seriously, that was below average kind of performance, but it was the first time that I didn’t mess up. It’s making me feel giddy inside. Although I didn’t get to hear how we sound all together because I was so focused on my own shit. But I didn’t mess up! That’s a good thing.I shook Bo’s hand happily, as he reciprocated the energy I showed. He grabs Lev on the circle, and the three of us jumped around like kids. Until Hiro decided to join, and now we look like a bunch of adults who never moved on from being a child.After we felt like throwing up from jumping around in a circling motion, we stopped and laughs at each other. For some reason, my eyes trail to the man who helped me realize my own error to thank him, but he was just there. Minding his own business, cleaning his guitar in silence.I guess he is back to his usual grumpy and aloof self now. “Hey, you guys want to celebrate?” Hiro chimes after we’re done cleaning kinds of stuff inside th
