• 3rd POV - A FEW
WEEKS AGO •

      Y/N sat at her cluttered desk, the late afternoon sun casting a warm glow across her makeshift studio apartment. She'd spent countless hours pouring her heart into her latest song, "Call Out My Name," featuring The Weeknd. The lyrics were a bittersweet reflection of her past relationship with the talented actress and singer, Hailee Steinfeld. The two of them had shared something intense, something beautiful, and it was all encapsulated in this song.

      Abel, aka The Weeknd, sat across from Y/N, his unique voice weaving through the lyrics of "Call Out My Name." They were making magic, bringing the song to life. Y/N couldn't help but share the backstory.

"This song is about Hailee. We were so in love, but something went wrong."

      Abel nodded, understanding the pain that resonated in the lyrics. "I've been there too. It's beautiful, Y/N."

      As the chorus approached, The Weeknd's soulful voice took the lead.

(play the song at 55 seconds if you want the female voice)

"So call out my name, girl call out my name when I kiss you so gently, I want you to stay..."

      But beneath the surface of the song, the live instrumental began to change. The melodies took on a different tone, signifying a shift in the narrative. The music grew more intense, foreshadowing a comeback, a resurgence of an antagonist.

"Girl why can't you wait? Girl why can't you wait 'till I fall out love...?"

      The live instruments reflected a rising storm, a symbol of Y/N's determination. The music swelled, with a sense of anticipation, promising that the antagonist would return, stronger and more resolute than ever before.

     
      Back in her apartment, Y/N pulled out her guitar and began strumming the opening chords of "Call Out My Name".

"We found each other, I helped you out of a broken place..."

      As the songwriting process continued, Y/N couldn't help but reflect on those passionate moments she had shared with Hailee. Their romantic getaways, impromptu serenades, and the countless times they'd stayed up late, lost in each other's eyes.

      After days of hard work, the song was complete, and "Call Out My Name" was ready for release. The haunting melody, combined with Y/N's heartfelt lyrics and The Weeknd's soulful voice, created a masterpiece that would soon be heard by the world.
