Chapter 27
The Drummer Guy
Aiden POV
"You look beautiful" the words slip naturally from my mouth, I feel a funny feeling in my
tummy when I see those smile curves on her lips.
"Stop looking at my sister AJ" I suddenly froze, I didn't realize I'm staring at Krystal for
so long. I rub my neck and nervously laughing to Jessica.
"So are you planning on going to Korea later?" she asked and Krystal looking at me too,
waiting for me to answer I guess.
"I haven't plan to go there for now but who knows?" I glance at Krystal,
she looking at me with a straight face. I don't think she care, who am I kidding?
"Alright boys, break over. Go on stage now" Alan swing his hand to my shoulder and
gesture to the others to come
"Such a killjoy there Alan"
"Geez Chad, stop flirting with my friends" I said while playfully punching his arm.
I excuse myself to the girls and walk toward the stage
"What's song next?"
"Kelly Clarkson - My Life Would Without You. AJ, work on your magic dude"

Chad plug the wire to his guitar and shove me the drum sticks. I took a deep breath as
I heard Chad strumming his guitar, I was lost in my own world once the sticks on my hand hitting
the snare drum. When the song is over, we can hear a loud applause from the guest.
Jackie look at me with a proud smile, I feel so great today. Like I was not myself,
I let all my emotion out and here I am surrounded by my fellow friends.
"That was awesome man, this is so not like you" Alan said while hugging me,
A korean man suddenly approach us, shoving his hand to me.
"I'm Lee Soo Man" I shook his hand
"Aiden Joseph Liu, but call me AJ Sir" I can feel all eyes on us
"Can we talk privately AJ?" I nodded and ask Jackie to borrow her office for awhile
"Let's talk in the office Sir" I lead him to the office
"AJ, the band that performing outside is your band?" I shook my head
"No, I only replace the drummer since he was hospitalize. Am I in trouble?"
I said jokingly and earned a laugh as a respond.
"Are you interested in joining our company? You are a talented musician" I sighed,
Krystal face and Stef Broks words flashing in my mind.
"Thank you Sir but I have to reject your offer" I show him a weak smile
"May I know the reason?" his question silence me, I keep thinking of an excuse.
"I-I'm not as good as you say and I'm not ready" he sighed and offer me a hand shake
"Very well AJ, but my offer is not end today. Take this, contact me in case you change your mind"
He put his card on the table before leaving the office. I put both of my hand covering my face,
I heard the door opened.
"Another offer I guess" I know it was my best friend, I rub my face with my palm before picking the card.
"Are you going to accept this one?" I furrowed my brows while looking at him
"What makes you think I'm going to accept it?"
"Krystal" a simp
