CHAPTER 6: THE NEW GIRL
"Woah!" exclaimed Freida in awe as she looked around at the interior of the studio and caught a glimpse of how stylized everything appeared to be,every one of the walls was a different color that ranged from red to blue to green and to purple,the floors were all shined and cleaned up to the point where everything was reflecting off it flawlessly,the air had the scent of fresh pine cones,golden records and CD's hung up on the walls and the overall vibe was very public friendly and inviting.
"Do you like it?" asked Randy out of curiosity as he closed the door behind his guest to which Freida nodded her head and cheerfully confirmed "Like it? I love it! Look at this place it's amazing." before the teenage boy lightly chuckled and admitted while they started to walk around the place "I had the exact same reaction when I first came here,actually a lot of history's greatest singers have come here at least once. You could be one of them if you wanted to." which resulted in Freida agreeing on the verge of speechlessness "No kidding,I wouldn't be surprised if The Beatles ever came here."
It wasn't too long until the duo came across the recording booth as Randy calmly stated while he and Freida walked inside "So this is the recording booth,it's where you record studio albums,but more importantly demos to see if the executives like it in the first place." to which the curly haired girl softly gasped in excitement "Wow,I've never been so close to one of these things before. It's so bizarre." before they proceeded to continue with the tour which soon took them to what appeared to be an office which Randy promptly explained "This is my office for when I'm town,if you need anything just come here or give me a call on the intercom in your room."
"Intercom?" questioned Freida with a slightly raised eyebrow before Randy clarified while they made their way out of the office "Yeah,it's on the top floor where your room is and you can call me anytime,however I would personally check with your roommate first beforehand." which only made Freida more confused as she wondered in response "My roommate? Is there someone else here?" to which the boy nodded his head and confirmed as he and Freida stepped into an elevator and began to head up "Yes indeed,and I bet I know exactly where she is."
Meanwhile in the middle of a dimmed and slightly dusty room,a young girl was sitting down at what appeared to be a black piano under what little bit of light illuminated the room,the girl sported brown skin and braids,a light yellow button up shirt,a pair of red pants and grey shoes. The girl appeared to be slightly nervous for some unknown reason as she wore an unnerved look on her face and seemed to be stretching out her hands for what felt like minutes,but eventually the girl finally ceased her stretching,took a deep breath and proceeded to play a little song on the piano.
?:
Wise men say,only fools rush in.
But I can't help falling in love with you.
Oh shall I stay?
Would it be a sin?
Oh if I can't help falling in love with you.
Oh like a river flows surely to the sea.
Darlin' so it goes some things are meant to be.
Take my hand.
Take my whole life too.
Oh for I can't help falling in love with you.
Oh like a river flows surely to the sea.
Darlin' so it goes some things are meant to be.
Oh take my hand.
Take my whole life too.
For I can't help falling in love with you.
Oh for I,I can't help falling in love with you.
"Hey Alice." The voice of Randy suddenly called out after Alice had finished her song to which the girl jumped up out of shock and let out a brisk yelp before she sharply turned around to see Randy and another girl standing at the doorway,and the sight of the girl caused her fear to quickly be replaced by intrigue as she raised an eyebrow at the sight while Randy turned on the rest of the lights to reveal a wide range of instruments consisting of drums,violins,guitars and much more.
"Sorry for the jumpscare,I'm just here to tell you that your roommate is here,this is Freida Rich,the girl I told you about the other day. Freida this is Alice Johnson,and she's gonna be YOUR roommate." apologized Randy for the spook as he calmly introduced Alice and Freida to each other before the former gave off a polite little wave of her hand,which the latter quickly did as well before the teenage boy stated afterwards "You can go back to your practice Alice,I'm just taking Mrs Rich on a tour of the place. Carry on." Afterwards Randy and Freida proceeded to walk off with the intent of continuing the tour of the studio,leaving Alice alone in the music room once again as she sighed and meekly told herself while she turned herself around to face the piano "Well Alice,I guess it's time for you to become a worthy backup singer." before she proceeded to practice on the piano once more.
