Chereads / Rise of the Failed Idol / Chapter 37 - Dark history

Chapter 37 - Dark history

Last room in the hallway.

It was a space called a recording studio and workroom, but it was actually like a warehouse. The walls are piled full of equipment.

As we sat huddled together on the narrow sofa, Gary opened his lips.

"Are we waiting here? Or we will working here?"

"I guess we'll be waiting."

Samuel said while munching on a snack.

"Surely we can do it here?"

"Samuel, does this situation whet your appetite?"

"What's there to be stressed about? Something like this happens and something like that happens."

Samuel, who was talking calmly about everything in the world, offered a snack to Sunny.

"You take one too."

The guy, who would normally have been short-tempered and would have rejected it, quickly accepted it and muttered.

It seems like he is full of stress.

Meanwhile, I saw the Avi playing a game on his phone without saying anything.

"Avi."

"yes?"

"I mean Aina from earlier."

At that moment, the game character falls while climbing the ladder due to a sprained finger.

GAME OVER.

Avi said as he pressed the restart button. Keeping his eyes fixed on the screen.

"Why?"

"She was being a bit harsh on you. What's your relationship?"

"We're kids from the same school."

"It didn't seem like you were just classmates from the same school."

"…."

When GAME OVER appeared again, Jiho opened his mouth.

"This is a bit of a dark story…"

"are you okay?"

"What do you mean okay bro? I'm not okay."

I said, speaking in an unusually crooked tone.

"If you don't want to talk, you don't have to talk."

"She confessed to me before."

Suddenly the atmosphere is one of confession.

There was something sad and unfair about me, and I was intrigued by the expressions on my friends' faces, as if those memories had disappeared in an instant.

Avi said after turning off the game.

"We were in the same class in elementary school. We hung out often because it was close to our house. I think she was in 5th grade. She confessed that she liked me on the way home from karaoke."

"so?"

"I told her I didn't like her"

"…"

"Then from then on, every time I see her, she starts a fight. Even at school, whenever no one is looking, she comes and starts a fight, but it's really… "

There was such a story.

But just because she confessed to him once, she became his enemy from then on. It was around this time that I thought she had a strange personality.

for a moment, I think I missed something.

"Wait, how did you say no?"

I can see the Avi's shocked expression.

"No, that's… that…"

"What exactly did you say?"

"I was young and immature back then."

"You didn't say anything harsh, right?"

"… I told her she looks ugly."

Gary sighs, Sunny clicks his tongue next to him, and Samuel stops eating the snacks and sighs.

"I thought it was harsh earlier, but this is recognition, really."

"Why did you do that?"

"If it were me, I would go and bang my head and apologize right now."

Avi waved his hands in response to his group members' criticism.

"No, actually, I just didn't like her personality. Just stay for 5 minutes her and you will find out. She text me all the time and bother me, asking me what I'm doing, and she give me food and make me feel bad, saying, 'You don't eat this kind of food at home, right?' Just like this."

"That's you, isn't it?"

"I know. What do we call this, Raj?"

"Homophobia."

As the members giggled at my answer, Avi looked aggrieved.

I said softly.

"But that was a bit harsh on you."

"No…"

"Apologise when you see her later."

"I don't know. I kept trying to say I was sorry, but she just walked away and suddenly went on a diet and joined a girl group."

"It's funny that you're saying you're sorry now."

"But please tell her. Understand?"

"…Okay. When I get the chance."

I laughed as I watched Avi shake his head.

Anyway.

Even now, I think he is immature, but it is dizzying to think about what it must have been like for Avi, an elementary school student.

But it's amazing.

I don't think there was anything like dating when he was in elementary school.

What do kids these days already call him?

What do they say about a relationship between a man and a woman that is tickling and embarrassing, and that is not a relationship?

I don't know, I'm sure I remember.

As we waited and chatted for a while, the main character appeared only after a full 40 minutes.

A person comes in with hair flying.

A charming smile greeted us beneath sharp eyes.

"hi!"

We all woke up.

"Hello, senior."

"What are they doing?"

Lilly Watson smiled coolly and gestured.

"Sit, sit."

"yes."

"Sorry, you guys waited so long, right? Have you eaten breakfast?"

"Yes, what about you, senior?"

"I just finished my schedule. I don't usually eat breakfast."

Lilly Watson took off the wine-colored coat she was wearing and looked around at us.

"I'm going to drink coffee, what would you like to drink?"

At those words, my group members' heads turn to me at the same time. They said they would buy it for me, but their eyes asked if I could eat it.

When I expressed OK with a glance, Lilly Watson, who was watching, laughed as if it was funny.

"Wow, the leader is holding you tight?"

"That's not it."

That's because I got scolded in the morning for not paying attention to them.

Lilly Watson called.

"Hello, yes. It's me, Lilly. Are you still at work? I'm sorry, but I'd like some coffee, please."

She looks at us as if telling us to say a spell.

One cocoa and two Americano.

And a large iced caramel macchiato topped with whipped cream.

"What's wrong, bro?"

"… no, It's nothing."

After a while, a man in a hoodie who appeared to be the manager came in and handed me a box of coffee.

After drinking coffee, the atmosphere suddenly became more comfortable.

Lilly Watson took out a laptop from his bag and started connecting it to the devices in the workroom.

"Are we working here?"

"huh."

She answers as if it were obvious.

"It's very narrow, isn't it?"

"no."

"Other people are using all the good rooms. what…"

Although the end of the words were blurred, the intention was conveyed.

Does the company treat unpopular celebrities well?

If Girls On Top were to work on the project, the company would probably take out the recording studio they owned.

"Do you want to listen to this first?"

I clicked on the folder on the desktop and then clicked on the file labeled [Main Theme Ver.1].
