At the Date residence, Miya and Rowen sat with Sage and all their friends in one of the guest houses. They knew that it would've been too crowded if they were in the main house. Besides, they let the friends all be together and have some privacy so they could hang out and do things they wanted to do. They were trying not to think about the upcoming days to Rowen's trial. None of them wanted to think about what could happen to Rowen.
"Hey Miya, aren't you suppose to sing at the club tonight?" asked Rowen.
"Yeah, but my brother is more important than singing at a club." said Miya.
Rowen could only smile. He was glad that his sister was there with him, even if he enjoyed the fact that she had her gig at the club.
"You know, Miya could do a performance for us right here." suggested Cye.
"Hey, yeah, that's a great idea Cye." said Aileen.
"Ah come on guys, I can't." said Miya.
"Yes you can Miya. Come on, you know how much we all enjoy hearing you sing." said Sage.
"Hey, we all know why you want to hear her sing Sage." said Kento teasingly with a wink.
"Shut it Kento. What they do is none of your business." said Tori.
"Alright you two don't make me separate you now. You guys fight like you're already married." said Hana.
"Like we don't already know what's going on between the two of you." said Ashiyu.
"Hold on, did I miss something?" asked Rowen.
"Kento and Tori went out on a date last night." said Ryo, teasing back.
"Hey, this is not about me, this is about Miya singing." said Kento defensively.
"A little testy aren't you Kento?" asked Cye.
Kento remained silent, only glaring at his friend.
"Alright, alright, I guess I can sing just one song for you guys, since you did ask nicely." said Miya.
"That's my girl." said Sage quietly, only Rowen hearing him since he was sitting right next to him.
Miya heard him too but said nothing, clearly her throat.
Right then, Hana walked in the room with Miya's acoustic guitar. Miya hadn't even noticed that she had left the room.
"You guys planned this didn't you?" asked Miya.
"Maybe." said Ryo.
Miya just smiled, taking her guitar from Hana. She started playing one of her favorite songs.
"I'm dying to catch my breath, Oh, why don't I ever learn? I've lost all my trust, though I've surely tried to turn it around, Can you still see the heart of me? All my agony fades away, when you hold me in your embrace;
"Don't tear me down for all I need, Make my heart a better place, Give me something I can believe, Don't tear it down, what's left of me, Make my heart a better place;
"I'm here on the edge again, I wish I could let it go, I know that I'm only one step away, From turning it around, Can you still see the heart of me?, All my agony fades away, When you hold me in your embrace;
"Don't tear me down for all I need, Make my heart a better place, Give me something I can believe, Don't tear it down, what's left of me, Make my heart a better place;
"I tried many times but nothing was real, Make it fade away, don't break me down, I want to believe that this is for real, Save me from my fear, don't tear me down;
"Don't tear me down for all I need, Make my heart a better place;
(Ashiyu took over playing Miya's guitar while Sage took Miya by the hand and danced with her.)
"Don't tear me down for all I need, Make my heart a better place, Give me something I can believe, Don't tear it down, what's left of me, Make my heart a better place, Make my heart a better place."
Everyone clapped for Miya, just as they always did when she would sing. They all loved her voice and loved any song that she sung.
The group hung out for several more hours than the group had to head home, minus Sage, Miya and Rowen. Rowen and Miya were staying in the guest house so Sage kissed Miya good night than headed to the main house.
*I know that this is a short chapter, but I promise that there is more coming. And there will be a twist coming up to! So be on the look out.*
