I unpack my suitcase in the hidden figures dorm room and sigh.How did he even manage to slither his way on the show.He's talented and experienced in the industry yes.But he is the worst person to work with.I shake my head and finish folding up my clothes when I hear a knock on my door.
"The door is open Max come in." I keep my back turned away from the door.Still listening to my music but lowering the volume when I hear the door.I feel someone turn my body around to face them.
"Dont ever call me another man's name." Apo says seriously. While I roll my eyes at his arrogant attitude.
"What do I owe the displeasure of you paying me a visit? Apo flicks my forehead hard.
"Watch it grandpa my fist dont discriminate." Apo raises his eyebrow and pushes past me to sit on my bed.
"You did okay today you almost made me cry." I look at him in disbelief I couldn't believe he was giving me a compliment regardless of how backhanded it was.
"Wow I didn't know you were capable of kindness."
"Dont what I said isn't a compliment." I look at him confusion written on my face.
"Almost dosent count, you sounded decent today and you're acting was okay.But your problem is your still holding back." I look at him deep in thought
"What do you mean?" I say confused
"Let me dumb this down for you kid." I roll my eyes already becoming irrated even though he's only been here for 2 minutes.
"You're not giving your performance everything because you're afraid of looking strange or unattractive.Stop caring about what you look like and just portray the song the best way you know how.Its a shame because your so talented and gifted.But the good part about this is that you still have time in this competition to fix it and grow yourself on a higher level." I smile I don't know what possessed me to do this.But I walk closer to him standing infront of him on the bed.He looked at me with a confused glance.I open my arms and give him a hug.I lean my head on his shoulder.I dont look up to see his reaction but i'm sure its one of complete disgust.
"Wow one compliment and now your trying to seduce me.I didn't take you as the gold digging type." And as soon as he said that I released him and layed on my bed facing him.
"You really have a way with words grandpa. You're a modern day shakesphere."
"And you're a modern day dog." I look at him with disgust and roll my eyes.
" I know you don't mean it but thanks for the compliment and critique it means alot coming from a talented artist like yourself." Apo looks at me with a look I cant quite describe and shakes his head, he leans forward.
"I meant every word I said." Apo looks at me in the eyes and we're so close to eachother I can feel his breathe on my cheek.We both stare at eachother stuck in a trance. Time stops and we're lost in the sea of our souls.
"Thanks grandpa." Apo immediately snaps out of his gaze and leans backwards away from me.
"You know we get to choose who we want on our team."
"Aw well that sounds cool atleast its not random."
"But to be honest I don't want any of you.I wish I could compete myself yall are all terrible." For the first time in his presence I laugh and Apo looks at me his glance softens.
"You know all the mentors are fighting to have you on their team." I look at Apo shocked and excited.
"Let them win." I say joking but not really.Apo just smiles and shakes his head.
