Declan spun his smartphone on his desk while weighing Axel's words. Should he or should he not call Kaylee?
Even if he called her, what would her reaction?
Plus, he didn't ask for Roe or Kaylee's contact number at that time because he already had one. All thanks to his mother, who gave Kaylee Zouch's contact number without him needing to ask for it.
At that time, his mother kept trying to persuade him to woo Kaylee, but Declan wasn't at all interested, so he didn't contact her. Now that he was about to get the girl, he didn't know what to do.
He had not the chance to fix the girl's impression toward him, and he did not want to make the girl ran away the minute he called her unnoticed.
Well, he heard that Kaylee was a sweet girl and polite, so that girl can't be rude by hanging up on his call, right. Even though the girl looked like a frightened bunny in his eyes, Kaylee wouldn't behave offensively toward him.
Declan took his smartphone and looked up Miss Zouch's name on his phone. After he waited for a few ringing sounds, his call brought to the voice mailbox made him raise an eyebrow.
It looks like he has to meet the girl in person.
In the end, Declan decided to head over to the Zouch residence tomorrow afternoon after he has finished tutoring Nick.
Nick. Declan sighed as his mind thought of this young man's name.
"Don't think about him. You're a straight guy, Declan. Just think about Kaylee. Kaylee…" Declan realized this is the first time he said the girl's name instead of Miss Zouch or Miss Roe.
Strangely, he could taste a sweet tingling when his tongue rolled to speak that name. Let's hope his meeting with the girl could work well tomorrow.
Little did he know, Nick… er… Kaylee locked herself in her studio only to play Black Moon's song all day. She even didn't join the practice with other orchestra team members.
Fortunately, her part was only a little, so it wouldn't be a problem if Kaylee did not come to practice. That's why Kaylee indulged herself in playing her idol masterpiece until the sun has set without her knowing it.
Even so, Kaylee never felt bored and played the song many times as if she wanted to imprint each melody on her soul.
She was completely unaware that an unknown number had contacted her while her mother and Wendy had called her tens to hundreds of times.
When Kaylee felt her stomach growled, and she began to feel unable to contain her hunger, only then did she stop playing the piano. She stored dozens of papers carefully, being mindful not to damage them. She treated the music sheet as if she were cleaning a priceless treasure.
Not long after, Kaylee unlocked her studio door and opened the door only to hear someone's worried tone.
"Calm down, Brit. I'll definitely find her."
"Wendy?"
Wendy looked at Kaylee anxiously, "Ah, I found her. I'll call you again." then her gaze turned to anger. "Kaylee Roesaline Zouch, where have you been all day?!"
"Ha?"
"And why is your appearance like that?"
Kaylee glanced at her own body and realized that she hadn't changed, and her appearance was still in her disguise as Nick.
"Ah, I went straight here from campus. I guess I forgot to change. I'm hungry now. Have you eaten?"
"Have I eaten?? Have I eaten?!" Wendy really wanted to give an earful scowling to her innocent friend, but she couldn't get angry when she saw Kaylee's honest gaze, who didn't know anything and stared at her confusedly. "I have not eaten. You better change your clothes first, and then we'll find something to eat."
"Cool. Wait a minute."
Kaylee turned around to take women's clothes from her backpack and headed for the bathroom. After changing clothes and removing all the extra skin on her face, Kaylee walked over to Wendy, who was now in a better mood.
"What is wrong with you? Why are you getting hyped up?"
"Isn't this all because of you?"
"What did I do?"
"At least turn on your phone's ringtone mode, so you know we're all calling you."
Kaylee scratched her neck, feeling guilty that she forgot to turn off mute mode on her cellphone. She reached into her sling bag to retrieve her cell phone.
Her eyes widened when she saw the number 99+ miscall on her cellphone. And on average, all who contact her were her father, mother, and Wendy. Because there were too many names of the three people popping up, Kaylee decided to get out of the miscall page so that she didn't see a single unknown number contacting her.
"Why are you all calling me?"
"Of course, because of your worrywart mother."
Kaylee rolled her eyes at her best friend's answer.
"Oh, please. I live in my own apartment now. Why do I feel that all of you still treat me like a child?"
"Aren't you a child?"
"I'm not. Why do you always pull on my leg on my happiest day?"
"What? What happy day?" Wendy just realized that her best friend had been smiling at herself like crazy. "Did something happen?"
"You remember when I said I would meet Black Moon one day, but you thought I was crazy?"
"Yeah."
"Do you also remember when I talked, I dreamed that I wanted to have a husband like Black Moon, but you scolded me because I didn't know what Black Moon's face was like?"
"Yeah? So?"
"Guess what. Today I met Black Moon."
"Nay, I didn't believe you."
"I know you would say that. Here is the proof." Kaylee gave the yellow map to Wendy and her eyes caught an unfamiliar title. "Require to Live? I never heard about it before."
"Don't mind the title. Try to sing the first theme."
Wendy shook her head while obeying her friend and suddenly realized that the melody she was muttering was a song that Kaylee often played!
"This... is really Black Moon's work!?" Wendy exclaimed in disbelief, then snorted to see Kaylee's eyes that were so filled with happiness made Wendy clicked her tongue.
Aiya, Kaylee. You made all of us worry because you played your idol song for hours!?
It almost gave them a heart attack!
