Love on the Fast Track (Derek and Norah)

Chapter 62:

At the backstage of Glamour Club,

Glaring at Zeke belting out tunes on stage, Cayle Coleman, from the Rosy Secret band, snapped, “Who’s that guy? Why is he performing alone before us?”

Emerson, lounging on the sofa, replied casually, “Why worry? It’s like he’s taken our spot. I’m not bothered by who he is as long as he’s not in our way.”

The lead vocalist of the Rosy Secret band, a lovely lady named Kris Dominguez, turned to Emerson and asked, “Emerson, is Starbeam calling it quits?”

Cayle, losing patience, snapped, “Kris, you are annoying. How many times must I say it? I’ve mentioned before that Starbeam doesn’t care about us anymore. Haven’t you noticed? She at least had the decency to announce her leaving the band. Otherwise, we’d still be here, waiting for her foolishly. Does she think she’s irreplaceable just because she writes songs? We’re managing just fine on our own!”

Kris started to respond, but then, noticing the other band members’ faces, she quietly looked down.

Starbeam had played a key role in forming the band. Their success owed much to her songwriting.

Following Zeke’s song, the crowd offstage cheered eagerly, shouting, “Encore! One more song!”

Zeke carefully placed the guitar down and turned to Norah, asking, “So, how did I do out there? Did I meet your expectations?”
