Days had passed after that incident, BerryBlue somehow was announced that the group will be on a short hiatus and the concert will be on hold for the time being.
Many fans were still suspecting why the company announced without any reason why. YOu've just got home from an important meeting with your company as well. "I guess Voicebot is safe and sound now" You sighed, lying down on your bed while you were lost in thought of the far-away future.
"I can't believe on top of that. I got such a serious meeting with the head of the company today too. Not to mention how B/n canceled his plans last minute..." you sighed. "Why is life so harsh on meee"
The meeting | 3 hours ago
"Y/n L/n, nice to see you again"
"N-Nice to see you again too"
"As the head of the company, I guess I don't need to
introduce myself. "Sigh, you had such a beautiful singing
voice but it's a shame that you had chosen to do backup
dancing instead."
"Hahaha, S-So... so what am I called for?"
"Let's cut the chase, your contract with us is ending sadly
and I have a new plan for you as well"
"A-And that is?"
"Well. I'm launching a project; a school for training for up-and-coming
KZQ celebrities. The school will consist of lessons in singing, dancing,
rapping, acting, and more. Not just that but it'll also be my other
subsidiary company. I'm thinking of naming it 'KZ-Lite Idol academy',
what do you think?"
"I-I see"
"Would you like the join this company instead? There'll be more
freedom as well; dating will be allowed as well you know"
"W-Wow, I-"
"-You don't need to tell me now Y/n, I'll give it to you at the end of
the week to decide. I guess this concludes our short meeting then"
"Oh Okay-"
Remembering the meeting you felt as if your body is as heavy as ever. You can't even lift up a limb from your body. Suddenly, you received a call from Boboiboy. "I wonder why he's calling me...?"
---------------
"Hey Y/n, are you free to talk?"
"Oh, Boboiboy, what's up?"
"Nothing much, but the power sphera situation's wrapped up now,
it turns out that they do have Voicebot, they've been using Voicebot
for everything, concerts, radios shows, all that. Also, everyone in your
company's building seems pretty hectic. Sigh, all this must've been
hard for you"
"Yeah..."
"Are you... okay?"
"I-I'm fine... I... I don't know... It's just... complicated. I know that
I did the right thing but... it feels wrong. It feels like I destroyed
BerryBlue's career, it's as if I tore down my role models' life, I
look up to them so much, and... It's just... It feels so
complicated, not to mention, there's so much going on around
me. I'm just... tired."
You stumbled as you felt a lump in your throat, you tried to gulp the lump down but only stumbling words came out of your mouth. Even your hands tremble slightly.
"Y-Y/n, it's fine. Trust me, TAPOPS actually had a meeting with
BerryBlue and their company. The group's going to be back in
business, they're not going to give up like that y'know?"
"Sigh, that's good to hear... I feel a bit better now,
thanks"
"N-No problem... Well, you free today?"
"Hmm? Yeah, dance practice is canceled ever since
that announcement so I'm free"
"Well, wanna watch a movie together then? I have two movie
tickets for the new movie that recently came out and I was
wondering if you want to watch it as well, it also might cheer
you up a bit. You can think of this as a date if you want."
"S-Sure, I'm down"
"Alright, I'll meet you at 1:00 at the cinema then, see you soon!"
"Kay!"
-------
"YAHHHHHH, WOOHOOO" Boboiboy cheered and plopped down his bed and rolled around in joy, "what now, Boboiboy? Just a minute ago you were whining about how long the power sphera meeting was, I'm glad that's settled" Ochobot sighed as he hovered to Boboiboy.
"OCHOBOT, I DID THE IMPOSSIBLE!" Boboiboy cheered in ecstasy
"And that is?"
"I ASKED A GIRL OUT"
"Chances are, that girl only said yes because of pity" Ochobot sighed, "Jealous much?" BOboiboy replied as he nudged his elbow to his robot friend. "N-NO, I-I'M NOT" Ochobot scoffed, "Hmm?" Boboiboy then smirked.
"I'm going to get ready, you wanna come as well?" Boboiboy asked Ochobot. "Nah, I'll pass. Tok will need help with Kokotiam anyways" Ochobot politely declined. "Aight, I'll come back around 4:00 to help out, I'm off then," Boboiboy said as he then slipped on his hoodie and jogged to the cinema.
Meanwhile.
"XIAOOO, Help meee" you groaned helplessly.
"Hmm? What's up- GIRL, WHAT'S THIS MESS?" Xiaoxing screamed at the clothes piled all over your room, "I don't know what to wear, please help me Xiaooo" you whined.
"Y/n, I think it's very necessary to cry on the floor just because you don't know what to wear" Weaponbot commented as it then helped you pick up some clothes and neatly laid them back in your closet.
"Ugh, where are you going anyways? A date?" Xiaoxing joked around but you remained silent, followed by a small whisper of, "I-I guess so..."
"O-Oh. So you're not joking."
"I-I... I don't know"
"W-Will the company allow this? We do
have strict dating rules"
"My contract with the company is about to expire
soon and I'm moving to the new company-"
"W-Wait. You're leaving KZQ??"
"No! Obviously not! I'm thinking of moving to the
company's the new subsidiary, KZ-Lite."
"Ah, that's a relief; They're talking about that new
the company all the time"
"I would never leave KZQ, y'know"
"Alright, c'mon, let's choose clothes for
your future husband"
"X-Xiaooo"
"I think that's it!" Xiaoxing sighed happily as she saw you beautifully dress and ready to go. "Well, I'm off then" you smiled as you then jogged to the cinema.
As you arrived, you saw Boboiboy swiping along with his phone in front of the cinema. "Hi!" you greeted him as you warmly smiled.
"W-Woah... cute- UUHHHH I mean, hi Y/n!" he stumbled as you blushed a bit as you heard his first sentence.
"S-So what movie are we watching?" you asked him to change the subject.
"It's the new action-comedy movie that's just out, it's getting very popular lately as well," he explained as he showed you the poster of the movie.
"That sounds interesting, let's go get popcorn then!" you cheered in excitement while you both then walked to the counter.
"Hello! We would like the regular size of popcorn and 2 sodas please!" you smiled as the cashier replied, "We have a special promotion for couples during this time as well" the employee happily said. "O-Oh we-"
"-That'll be 35 ringgit please!" the staff then brought out 2 bags, which are brightly colored in pink and hearts all over it as a pattern, of popcorn with sodas with the same heart pattern. "Oh... H-Here you go" you paid for the popcorn and handed the drinks to Boboiboy.
"I treat you something for dinner then tonight" he insisted as he then looked at the time, "Oh! The movie's starting, let's go then!" Boboiboy said as you nodded and followed him into the cinema.
As you sat down next to Boboiboy, the movie then started. However, Boboiboy had his eyes on you more than the movie itself.
Moments later, you caught looking as he stuttered his words to find an excuse, "U-Uh, I-I was-" he whispered you but cut him off, "It's fine" you smiled as you both then watched the movie.
As Boboiboy sneakily slid his hand and intertwined it with yours, you were a bit stunned by the contact out of nowhere but you somehow didn't mind the sudden contact.
-------------
Hours later, you both are having burgers at Mcdonalds for dinner and talking about the school festival. "Woah, so you all are singing?" you spoke out in awe, "Yeah, Fang and Janta were arguing non-stop about who'll be the main vocalist so we all settled with everyone singing" Boboiboy mentioned.
"Oh, look at the time, we should get going, I heard it's going to rain a lot this week" Boboiboy mentioned once more, "Alright" you replied as you both walked to the bus stop, luckily, the sky is still as clear as ever, tinting a warm orange color so aesthetic to the eye.
While you both walked your separate ways, your mind is swirled around the moment where he held your hand. "Aaaaah, focus Y/n! Focus-"
-BANG-
Your hand was hit with a nearby tree as the people passing by lightly chuckled. Embarrassed, you then crept away and tried to reach Xiaoxing's penthouse as soon as possible.
The next day|6:00, after school
"Alright, we got the costumes down, and now we gotta work on the menu" Yaya announced. You are about to plan for the café's menu while the people working on the band are practicing in the music room.
"We got the chocolate drinks for Boboiboy, so what about the snacks?"
"Is cake or any baked goods okay?"
"I think Anne's parents own a bakery, we can ask her parents for that!"
The conversation went along as you noted down the ideas on your notebook, "I know how about-"
"-NOT THE COOKIES, PLEASE!"
Everyone except you and Yaya was silent while everyone cried out like it was the end of their lives. "W-What I'm saying is that that'll be too much work for you!" a classmate rearrange their words as everybody then nodded along, "Oh okay then!" Yaya smiled and everyone then continued planning and brainstorming ideas.
Suddenly rain poured down as if it's never going to stop, students rushing out of the school building with their backpacks covering their heads from the rain.
"Gosh, it's raining cats and dogs out there; let's stop here before the rain gets worse guys! I'll contact Anne about the menu. See you all later!" Yaya cried out as everyone then rushed out of school.
-----meanwhile|the music room----
"Aight, let's go! The practice's over!" Gopal sighed in relief as he fell from his drums and slept on the floor. "Gopal, can't you sleep somewhere else? Gopal?" Boboiboy nudged his best friend but he is fast asleep. "Sigh, I guess I have no choice" he smirked.
While everyone was tidying and packing up their instruments, Boboiboy then banged the cymbals of the drums near Gopal to wake him up, along with starling the band members. "SUGAR HONET ICED TEA" Gopal cried out as he immediately jumped off the floor, "Boboiboy, did you have to do that?!" Fang sighed as Boboiboy chuckled.
"Hahaha, sorry not sorry" he replied. "Whatever, let's head home" Janta mentioned as he then grabbed the umbrella he prepared and walked out of school.
"Ugh, out of all the days, it had to rain now?" Xiaoxing complained as she shivered in the cold, swift wind underneath the bus stop.
She had to run in the open rain just to seek cover at the mere bus stop, she was drenched to the bone. Passing by, Janta noticed Xiaoxing and called her out. "Oi! You wanna come?" he shouted out and walked up to her.
"Huh?" Xiaoxing asked for clarity. "I'm saying that I'll walk you" Janta repeated as Xiaoxing blushed, "A-Aight... thanks" she mumbled as she walked underneath Janta's umbrella and walked alongside him.
"She looks a little cute"
"Oh gosh, why is he so close?"
The duo then walked along, "W-We can stop by at my house, it's closer anyway." he mentioned as Xiaoxing nodded.
"T-Thanks... again" he whispered as Janta looked away from her face. "U-Uh, yeah, n-no problem" he replied as Xuaoxing looked away as well. The awkward silence carried on until an old lady spoke out, "Ah, Young love" she sighed happily as the dup stared at each other with faces as red as ever.
"I guess rain isn't that bad after all..."
