Summer Musical Class
I'm back~! As I promised, I'll try my very best to update daily. But I reckon more stuff will keep me from updating…
Anyway, here's the next chapter! I'll just begin with Chapter 2 since I consider the prologue as Chapter 1!
Enjoy~~~~~~~~
Chapter 2
Normal POV
"But Mom!" Len whined at his mother. They rarely argue, and that's because they rarely talk. And on those rare occasions, they argue.
"No, Len, whether you like it or not, you'll go with your Aunt Ann," his mother insisted. "Instead of doing nonsense stuff in your messy bedroom the whole summer, you'll have to do something more meaningful."
"But the things I'm doing in my room are more meaningful than you think!"
"For you, but not in my opinion. I'm doing this for your sake, Len."
"No thanks, I can take care of myself," he muttered as he stomped his feet back to his bedroom.
"I'll cut your privileges! No Black Ops, no facebook, and no PSP the whole summer!" his mother scowled angrily, but he doesn't seem to care."
"Oh really? Then go, let's see how you'll enter my locked room," he replied in a sarcastic tone.
His mother can't reply to that, Len is such an irresponsible son. She just pouted and sat on the stairs. Of all the people walking this hell-like world, why did she happen to possess the fate of having a son like him? She can't help it, she sobbed quietly. Of course, her sobs didn't escape her son's ears.
He was grimacing on his bed, punching his big banana pillow. Of all the people walking this hell-like world, why did he happen to possess the fate of having a mother like her? Don't get him wrong, he do love his mother, but he really hate the fact that there wasn't a time when she ever said yes to him. Maybe because he never listened to her?
He paused when he heard sobs. His mother is crying. He don't know how to comfort her though, because even if it's only them in the house and their housemaid, they never talked or did any mother-son bond. But he still wanted to talk to her, because he pity her. All he did was stay in his room and play video games, and upset his mother every time she make an attempt to bond with him. And now, she only wanted him to improve his voice, but he still said no. Maybe he should be a bit kinder to his mother. He stood up and opened the door to his Mom holding a knife, attempting to commit suicide because she believed her one and only son never loved her over those luxury she gave him. Len face palmed at this exaggerated reaction of his mother.
"Mom! Don't do that!" he said angrily as he grabbed the blade. "I'll go."
"You're only forced to."
"I know. But I promise, when I get back after the summer musical class, you'll see, I'll be good in singing."
His mother smiled a bit. "I'll prepare what you'll bring." As she stood up and leave him alone in the stairs, he pouted angrily.
"I should be having fun this summer, dammit."
Several days after that, Len was already with his Aunt Ann who teaches music and on that day, her summer musical class will start. He was sitting on her classroom, and beside that room was a larger room that resembles the stage of a theater room. They'll be learning about musicals.
"Okay Len, just wait here. Once the classroom is complete, we'll be starting the session."
"Yeah, yeah, okay…" he said lazily.
"I know you're only forced to do this, but I assure you, you'll have the best summer of your life."
"Thanks, 'Sweet' Ann. Oh, by the way, since when had boring summers become the best summers?" he raised one brow in an irritated way.
Sweet Ann sighed sadly. It's really hard to encounter someone with such an attitude. She just stood up and headed to her little office, leaving her bored nephew alone to wait for his future classmates.
Soon enough, a girl with teal twin pigtails entered with another guy with short teal hair and a girl with cherry-colored hair with some strands standing over her hair trailing behind them. The teal girl sat one seat away from him, then her possible twin sat beside him, and the girl with cherry hair sat beside him. The girl of teal gazed around and spotted Len.
"Oh, hi! You came early. By the way, I'm Miku. You are?" she said cheerfully. Len tried to hide a smirk, how can these three people bear to go on a summer class?
"Uh… hi, I'm Len," he said as he shook her outstretched hand.
"Nice to meet you, Len! And this is my twin brother Mikuo and our cousin Miki."
"Nice to meet you too," he tried to smile though he wasn't really in any mood.
"I guess I should just sit there, since we're friends already," she said, referring to the empty seat between them. "I heard only ten people enrolled here, and look, there were only ten seats."
"Okay," he said, quiet not surprised that only ten people will be attending. Well, only ten that are below eighteen. His Aunt Ann's husband, Al, also called 'Big' Al, is teaching those above eighteen. He can't see the difference why they should be taught separately, but he doesn't care anyway.
But before Miku can make a move to even stand up, an orange bag was dumped on the seat between them. Len smirked and Miku lifted her head to see whose bag it is. She looked quiet surprised but she smiled very cheerfully and hugged a girl with shoulder-length flaxen hair and huge bows on her head.
"Riiiinnnny~~!" she said happily, and the blonde gasped, breathing for air.
"Hi Miku," she smiled. "Would you mind if I sit beside you?"
"Aw, c'mon, of course I won't mind! I thought I won't see you the whole summer!"
"Yeah, me too," the girl sat between them and Len pouted because the fish escaped. If Miku and Rin will be chatting the whole summer, how can he find anybody to talk to? Oh, right, Mikuo and Miki! He gazed at them, but seeing that they are busy chatting on their own, he just pouted and stared at the window.
"By the way, Len," Miku said, and noticing that he's no longer paying attention, she poked him. "Len?"
He pivoted his head and looked at Miku. "Uh… yeah?"
"This is Rin," she said, referring to the girl.
"Umm… hi, nice to meet you, I'm Len," he just said. Then the two stopped bothering him and started chatting about random stuff. Bored out of anything, he took his PSP and started playing. Without him noticing, five more people entered, completing the group, and the session already have to begin.
"Okay, looks like we're already complete. Let's please introduce ourselves, shall we? Let's start with that cherry-haired beauty. You don't have to state your surname."
And they all introduced themselves. (A/N I don't have to say each detail, do I? I'm just too lazy…)
Miki, Mikuo, Miku, Rin, Len, Lily, Iroha, Piko, Gumi and Neru. Only three of the same gender as him. Looks like it'll be really boring than he thought.
"Okay, so before we start about musicals, I want to hear each of you sing first."
The first one that sung was Miki. Actually, before the first session, after the enrolment, they were asked to write a song. Of course, Len never wrote a song. That lazy bastard. And now he was secretly panicking, thinking of what to do, no one wanted shame thrown right into their faces right? He started complaining to himself why he'd even became convinced to go on this stupid class.
Miki sang a good song, and she had a great voice. But Len didn't pay attention. What will he sing?
Then it was Mikuo's turn. Oh no, two more!
Then Miku. He found he had the voice of an angel. Oh, wait, he should be thinking of a song, dammit!
Then Rin. She have a very high voice so he stealthily covered his ears. (A/N That was Meltdown.) Rin noticed him and felt insulted.
His turn. But as she sat down, she glared at him.
"I know my voice is too high, but I believe it's good."
"You should be thankful that I didn't tell you straight-forward, right?"
"You don't have to cover your ears."
He smirked. "I'll do what I want."
"I'm better than you." Her eyes narrowed angrily.
"No you're not."
"Ahem~?" Sweet Ann coughed, and Len gave Rin one last glare before he go in front. He'll prove it, he is better. He didn't write any song, but he can compose one.
daremo inai heya de hitori
shizumu taiyou wo nagameru
futo osowareru samishisa ni
kuchizusamu MERODI
All alone in my room
Gazing at the setting sun
Suddenly I'm stricken with loneliness
So I hum a melody
namae no nai sono uta ga
boku no kokoro wo sotto tsutsumu
dare nimo kikareru koto no nai
boku dake no uta
That nameless song
Gently fills my heart
There are no words for anyone to hear
It's a song all my own
Mm...
Mm...
nanimo nai heya de hitori
kurai machinami wo nagameru
futo otozureru shizukesa wo
magirasu MERODI
Alone in my empty room
Gazing upon the darkening streets
Suddenly I'm visited by silence
So I break it with a melody
namae no nai sono uta ga
kono heya wo sotto tsutsumu
dare nimo shirareru koto no nai
boku dake no uta
That nameless song
Softly fills the room
It's nothing for anyone to know
It's a song all my own
Mm...
Mm…
Rin can't deny the fact that he is good. She loved the humming. As he went back to his seat, they exchanged glares again.
I'm better than you… both heads are screaming.
And the competition began.
Okay, chapter ends here! Yep, LenvsRin! And that's how they started hating each other. (A bit lame, right? Or maybe only in my opinion it's lame?) Looks like Len won today.
I just got a lot of bruises on my knee and a (little) cut on my elbow. *~~~~~~~~~stupid~clumsy~baby~~~~~~~~~*
Anyway, I hope you liked it! And one more thing: please review!
Paalam na muli mga kaibigan! (Goodbye again my friends!)
