"Hi"a man talked to us. And it was Simon Cowell
"Mr. Cowell it's a pleasure to meet you"Auster said as they shake their hands
"and you are?"he asked
"My name is Austerlitz Balangue Mañalac, Auster for short"Auster introduce his self
"and Im Marty Mionette Losoya, Mai for short sir"I said as Zi walked behind us
"well Auster, Mai I was looking for some talented persons if you don't know and luckily you two caught my attention. Here is my talent agency address go there on Tuesday. You could bring your band if you have. See you guys"he said as he walked out of the Bar
Me and Auster were like statues because of starstruck
"Mai could you pinch me cuz I think Im dreaming"he said as Zi pinched him at the back
"Ouch! Woah Im not dreaming"he said
"well your welcome Kuya and can I join you guys? Please?"she asked me
"yes you could come besides you're his cousin"I said
"yes!"she said as she hugged the two of us and its kinda awkward because me and Auster were really close at each other like never mind
I can't wait to tell this to my sisters and Mom
"by the way your violin is ready and you need to pick a case for it"Zi said
"I'll pick for her just wait here"Auster said as he walk away
Me and Zi were silent until she spoke up
"so how did you met kuya?"she asked
"I first met him a couple of days ago at school when we bumped unto each other then he became one of my classmates and we became friends"I said making her squeal
"tell me more!"she said
"umm he asked me out yesterday and he began to court me"I said trying to hide my blush
"awe you look adorable when you blush"she said making me blush harder
"hey guys I got the case and the violin. Ready to go? Oh uh.. Did I disturb you two?"Auster said while holding my gift from him
"not exactly and yes were ready to go"I said
"can you wait for me ill just ask Martin if he could watch and close the bar"she said
"who's Martin?"I curiously asked
"my brother"Zi said as she walked to a young man smaller than Auster
"okay come on Auster Im ready to play this new violin"I said pulling him out of the bar
"hey quit the pulling you might rip my shirt"He said as he flatten the crumbled parts of his shirt
"so wanna learn the basics?"he asked
"ofcourse I do. What's the first step then?"I asked him
"the first step is handling your violin case"he said handing me the case
"okay Im ready"Zi said as she walk towards us
Auster and I walked towards his car while Zi walked to her Kawasaki Ninja H2R
I guess Auster and his cousins have the same taste on rides
Auster parked his car infront of his Manor and Zi did the same. Auster assisted me by opening the door for me.
"Zibelle!"a shout from the balcony caught our attention
We look who it was and surprisingly it was Mk and Maiah. Zi waved over as we walked over Auster's house.
"it seems like a reunion isn't"I said as Auster scratched his nape
"yeah the last time we saw each other was like months ago"he said as he opened the door for us
"Cuz!"Maiah shouted as she hugged her and Zi did the same
"look at you you're taller than us now"Mk said
"na just a couple of inch, by the way when did you guys moved here?"Zi asked
"its kinda a long story"Maiah said
"and your kuya let us stay here"Mk said as she sat at the sofa
"okay we'll leave you girls for awhile"Auster said as he pulled me to his studio
He opened the door for me and I saw his violin on top of his grand piano and some music sheets
"hey these are for rock music"I said as I analyzed some of the sheets
"yes"he said as he got his violin
"I've been doing some research and surprisingly rock music sounds awesome if your gonna use violin instead of guitars. I set up a recorder here so that we can hear the difference"he said as he gave me a lyrics of Sweet child of Mine by Guns and Roses
"as in Right now?"I asked him
"yes and we'll be doing 4 covers of sweet child of mine using violins while your on vocals. Are you ready?"he asked me
"um yeah?"I replied
"okay well do the vocals first and then youll help me in mixing"he said as he gave me a headphone and gestured me to sit on a stool. Infront of me is a music stand with the lyrics and a Microphone for recording
"Knock! Knock! Can we come in and join you guys?"Zi said standing beside the door with Mk and Maiah
Hmm Kisha's missing I wonder why. I said to myself
"come in guys"I said to her
"and you three will help me on violin covers"Auster said
"on what song?"Mk asked
"sweet child of mine. Why?"I said
"well its easier than I thought"Zi said as she got a violin as well as Mk
"Ill just Do the Mixing"Maiah said as she sat behind the computer
"wait we need one more person to Do the last cover"Auster said
"I'll help"someone said and it was Julius
"since when did you learn to play violin?"Kisha asked behind him
"since we were grade 4"Julius said
"hey Auster what will I do?"Kisha asked Auster
"how about we do a duet? Im pretty sure that your a good singer"I said
"okay then, hey Auster can you give me some headphone? Please?"she asked Auster
Auster gave her an headphone and another Mic for recording
"okay lets start"Auster said as he started the intro.
Well it sounds perfect to me and it do sound great. Maiah caught my attention and gestured me to start in 3...2...1
"She's got a smile that it seems to me
Reminds me of childhood memories
Where everything
Was as fresh as the bright blue sky
Now and then when I see her face
She takes me away to that special place
And if I stared too long
I'd probably break down and cry
Sweet child o' mine
Sweet love of mine
She's got eyes of the bluest skies
As if they thought of rain
I'd hate to look into those eyes
And see an ounce of pain
Her hair reminds me of a warm safe place
Where as a child I'd hide
And pray for the thunder and the rain
To quietly pass me by
Sweet child o' mine
Sweet love of mine
Sweet child o' mine
Sweet love of mine
Sweet child o' mine
Sweet love of mine
Where do we go?
Where do we go now?
Where do we go?
Sweet child o' mine
Where do we go?
Where do we go now?
Where do we go?
Sweet child o' mine
Where do we go?
Where do we go now?
Where do we go?
Sweet child o' mine
Where do we go?
Where do we go now?
Where do we go?
Sweet child o' mine"we ended the song and all of us were silent for a minute.
Now I know the feeling of having friends whos passion for music is high. The feeling that someone is there for you to help. And A man who is caring for you
