Chapter 197 - 195: Girlfriends II

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Serena asked, trying to pretend not to understand what they were expressing with their puppy dog eyes.

"Please Serena? S-O-S" Milly said as she held Serena's arm.

"Yes Serena, we're best of friends…" Gizel tried to appeal.

Even Via was in the verge of begging with words.

Seeing them this way, Serena could not help but laugh. "Alright. But you guys would have to sing. By the way, aside from Piano, do you guys know how to play other instruments?"

Gizel and Milly both shook their head.

Via can only shyly nod and say "I can play the guitar, a little."

Gizel turned to look at her, her eyebrow raised. "Since when did you learn how to play that?"

Via blushed and mumbled, "Kylo taught me some time ago…"

Milly wiggled her brows, "you have been spending an awful lot of time with Kylo. Is something going on?"

"G.o.ds! Not Kylo. He's such a s.e.xist Via! You can do better!" Gizel said trying to dissuade her cousin.

"Kylo is not that bad. He can be funny and he's pretty nice. Besides, we're just friends." Via explained. Not that she didn't somewhat hope that he sees her that way.

Serena shook her head, now this is some real young love. Anyway, she finally thought of a new song.

"If you guys don't mind, perhaps we can sing a new song I composed for this activity. I was wondering if it would be well received. So, if you guys are up for it, we can sing that. I won't make any promises, but if it turns really well, we can have it recorded." Serena suggested. Well, it was kinda lonely to sing all her songs alone. It would be really fun to have her friends join her from time to time.

"you mean, recorded as in the one you usually do and will be up for sale?" Milly confirmed.

"Yes, something to that effect. That is of course if you guys are up to it. I understand if…"

"WAHHH!!!!! Serena, I thought you would never ask. I was so jealous of Via from last time. HUHU!!! Thank you for even considering!" Gizel suddenly exclaimed in an outburst that everyone turned to look at them.

Feeling everyone's eyes on them, they just smiled and pretended nothing was happening. Anyway, when everyone turned to back to whatever they're doing again, they continued talking.

"I don't want to get your hopes up. We still have to check if the song will be well received and well, if our performance goes really well." Serena explained.

"We understand and won't disappoint!" Milly said with a confident grin while high fiving with Gizel.

Via can only smile and shake her head. "Sorry Serena, we have to rely on you."

"It's alright. I have been wanting to sing with you guys too. Now then, let's go while everyone is not yet moving so we can get a vacant private music room." Serena instructed.

"You mean you already have the song really prepared?" Gizel again asked in surprise.

"Of course." Serena grinned as she stood up. Well, time to level up the music of this era again.

Arriving in the music room, they went inside the one with a piano and some other instruments. Serena sat at the back of the piano while asking Via to get a guitar to check if she can follow with the melody. Surprisingly, it seemed like Via had the affinity for the guitar. She was able to follow the melody, but it was not to the effect of Charlton's creativity.

Thinking about how to improve it, she absent-mindedly stared forward. Now, talk about the devil, and he will arrive.

Charlton was only planning to look through the gla.s.s window in pa.s.sing. Really, he doesn't mean to interrupt but Kylo opened the door which was unlocked.

"What are you guys working on?" Kylo asked curious. He saw Via holding the guitar from outside and felt proud that it was him who taught her.

Gizel and Milly frowned seeing his face.

Kylo seeing their expressions raised his hands in surrender, "The door was unlocked. Sorry to disrupt." He said trying to be in peace with them. Ugh, if not because of Via, he would totally keep annoying them.

Serena smiled at Charlton who was also smiling at her. "you're just on time. By the way, everyone, do you know that Charlton is about to become a music producer?"

"Huh? How come I never heard about that?" Kylo asked.

"Wow! Congrats!" Milly congratulated.

"What's that?" Gizel asked puzzled.

"Well essentially a music producer a.s.sists artists and groups to create recorded music. He will also be responsible for developing and making creative content. Like for example, helping with developing the harmony of songs." Serena explained. Then she turned to face Charlton again.

Charlton, trying to impress, asked with confidence, "How can I be of help?"

Serena blushed, composing herself she replied, "Mr. Producer, we're working on a new song, but we are facing some difficulty with the beat. I mean, I have the melody in mind, but I can't make it sound like I want to with the piano. Can you try it with the guitar? I want the sound to be more upbeat."

Charlton nodded his head in understanding. "Okay, how about you play it first?"

Serena said okay then started to play the melody on the piano.

Charlton tried it with the guitar.

The other four just listened. The two were so in tune when working that they could only look in admiration.

Half an hour has pa.s.sed until Serena nodded her head in satisfaction. She didn't even sing the lyrics and Charlton can already play the upbeat tune so well. Really a genius.

"Okay girls, the melody is ready. Via, later Charlton will provide you with the sheet music for playing the guitar, you can also observe him in the meantime." Serena instructed. Seeing Kylo staring and listening, Serena felt a little embarra.s.sed to sing the song. She cleared her throat, "Kylo, would you mind exiting the room in the meantime? I will call you back after 5 minutes."

Kylo did not want to, but Charlton gave him the glare, while Via looked at him expectantly. So, like a kicked puppy, he exited the room.

"alright girls, please listen in the meantime. I will provide you with the lyrics after I sing this, okay? The t.i.tle of our song is 'wannabe'." Well, what can she say? She really liked spice girls. Anyway, she just knew that the introductory part would fit Milly and Gizel perfectly. It was so fitting for their group and it has always been her dream to sing it with her friends.

Serena cleared her throat first, "Charlton, no matter what I do, don't stop playing okay?"

Charlton nodded his head. What was she up to? anyway he started strumming the guitar.

Then Serena began to sing.

Ha ha ha ha ha

Yo, I'll tell you what I want, what I really, really want

So tell me what you want, what you really, really want

I'll tell you what I want, what I really, really want

So tell me what you want, what you really, really want

I wanna, (ha) I wanna, (ha) I wanna, (ha) I wanna, (ha)

I wanna really, really, really wanna zigazig ah

If you want my future, forget my past

If you wanna get with me, better make it fast

Now don't go wasting my precious time

Get your act together we could be just fine...

If you wanna be my lover, you gotta get with my friends

(Gotta get with my friends)

Make it last forever, friendship never ends

If you wanna be my lover, you have got to give

(You've got to give)

Taking is too easy, but that's the way it is...

Slam your body down and wind it all around

Slam your body down and wind it all around

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha

Slam your body down and wind it all around

Slam your body down and zigazig ah

If you wanna be my lover

After she finished singing, Charlton and her friends could only stare at her wide eyed their mouths gaping. When they recovered, Gizel and Milly started screaming.
