The duo alighted and walked into the huge building.
Evie walked towards the manager, Jennie couldn't make out what they were saying but after a while a pretty lady Jennie assumed to be the hostess walk up to her, she has this radiant smile on, Jennie glanced at Evie who nodded at the man before walking back towards where she stood.
Along with Evie, they were led by the hostess into a lounge, Evie who already asked the manager to know how the venue's system works to enjoy the night with food, drinks, and music had already sorted the bills and stuffed the receipt into her pouch.
Evie who had prepared a recorders turned it on and hang it in a better position before making some arrangements,
After some minutes, the hostess has been sent away, no use having her around it was just the two of them, Evie took a microphone, she looked serious all of a sudden and started singing .
🎶 Even if I failed, I'll be willing to do it over and over again, cause you been there, I will never let go never say goodbye..... You mean the world to me 🎶
Jennie couldn't deny Evie being talented, her voice is to die for, the rhythm blend into ones souls .
If she took a path in singing, she won't break a sweat to be known in the entertainment industry.
After some minutes she sang the last part and dropped The microphone, she gazed at an headset knowingly, she inspect it for few seconds before handing it to Jennie.
Jennie who took few steps back, she can't do this alright!
Evie forced the headset to her hand before urging "Come on"
"Jennie shook head and said simultaneously "No, I'm not doing it" .
"Give it a try" encouraged Evie, both were forced to stop at that moment.
A man carrying a flat carrier walked in with dishes carefully arranged on it, Evie after the man was off fondle with the headset and sat dispirited on the chair. She was literally sulking.
Jennie ineffectually glanced around before rambling idly towards Evie and said "I sucks at singing, trust me you wouldn't want to hear, I mean..." She stop abruptly looking at the pitiful look Evie was given her, "fine, fine! I'll do it"
This way of pretence is definitely wrong, who taught her how to make those faces anyway, The person must be a pro.
She put on the headset cleared her throat before started singing at first hurricane of emotions evaded her mind but she brush them aside, exhaled and started singing.
🎵 What to sing I don't know.. 🎵
Evie blare and said removing the headset, "isn't any music playing, I thought it was playing jazz? Or something"
Jennie rolled her eyes and said "It's boring alright, I want something soft."
Evie pursed her lips and changed the music. After putting back on the headset she began, The classic piano was much more better than those beats. En!
🎶 If I could reach greater heights, where all that matters remained so beautiful, that height I will mount and conquer regardless of the obstacles, where Is the peace? The peace we had when we were younger, has it been milked dry? Hasn't? Where is the peace! Give it to me! Give it back!, Give it back!!, Give it.. back!!! 🎶
If it was those Ming dynasties they definitely would have set a boundary and sound barrier because of this unstoppable croaking.
The headset was pulled off Jennie head, ending the intensive singing, Evie couldn't endure it any longer this is practically suffering. She sang just painfully!.
Jennie smiled awkwardly, looking at how wrinkled Evie face was. Is it that worst?
"You okay? Not that bad huh" she managed to ask.
Evie couldn't help screaming on the inside _Heck!! Not that bad?? I mean who would instinctively wished for that, infact compared to a crow it was like insulting the crow, but to be fair she forced her to do it, Jennie wasn't willing in the first place, she realized they both never really knew each other that much_
Evie covered her displeasure with a weird smile saying with ascertain "Yes, Yes! Not that bad is an understatement, you sing just beautifully"
"You sure, I didn't know I still got it" Jennie said taking back the headphone and started singing
🎵love me do you? Like me do you, you said you'll be there Oh yeah! Mn yeah love....🎵
Evie only cried inside fighting her inner self the reason she lied, she only wanted to make her happy but now... She actually believed her!!
The night was still very young, both sang and drank as well, Evie felt fulfilled and satisfied. She couldn't be more grateful or wished for more.

Drunk Evie was dragged inside her room and plopped down on the bed, Jennie felt somewhat dizzy and lightheaded but she had to go back home she promised that to her mom.
She could hear Evie blabbing some words with annoyance, she gripped Jennie and looked at her pitifully saying "Ain't I pretty enough?"
Jennie let out a sigh and said "You're infact very pretty"
Evie nodded repeatedly and released her gripped on Jennie before continue her monologue " She said I'm pretty, is he blind or something but I don't see him wearing contact lenses or being led!. Maybe he is truly blind. So bad, humph! But he's to handsome to be blind" she pouted.
Jennie tucked her under the covers, before saying " sleep alright, and dream sweet dreams"
"Sure I'll" she murmured, determined.
Jennie after slipping out of the room, she felt muddle-headed her vision turning slightly blurry.
Rong Yi was responsible for it, he hyped soju just way beyond and she couldn't help taking hard liquor after two glass of soju.
She was intoxicated, tottering towards where she could find taxi, after what felt like longest minutes her vision started turning blurr and she felt her consciousness wearing off gradually.
Before long some light she couldn't make out flashed on her, but before she could move a step she suddenly slumped and pass out.
