The first-round competition event went well. Of the approximately fifty contestants, only twelve contestants made it to the next round. One of them was Alicia Johnson, the young girl who has confessed her feelings to 'Nick.'
At first, Kaylee hoped that Alicia would not be as great as she thought and would fall in the first round. Who would have thought, it turned out that this girl shines the most among the other contestants.
Without prioritizing her interests, Kaylee still assessed Alicia's performance professionally and rationally. She was always untroubled and doing her job seriously.
But when it ca to recess, where all the jury were provided with a room, only then did Kaylee encounter a nerve-wreck.
"Wendy, what should I do? If that girl really wins…"
"Hey, take it easy. The next song won't be as easy as before. We still have a chance. But, I have to say, that girl reminds of you."
"?"
"Do you rember the first ti you entered the international piano championships? You're the one who shines the most among the other contestants."
"Well, I think she will beco a great professional pianist later."
Wendy laughed with amusent. "Now you admire her. You're not worried that she'll chase you when you et on Monday."
"Are you my friend? Please, don't remind of that." Kaylee took a deep breath and then decided to walk outside for so fresh air.
The next round starts in about half an hour, and the juries decided to rest their eyes and back muscles as they had been sitting in the sa position for more than four hours.
Kaylee didn't walk away from the break room because she didn't want it to be considered rude to explore this campus without permission.
Well, it doesn't matter to her exploring this campus because no one will stop her. But she didn't want to be interrupted by the kids from seeing her or Wendy.
Not to ntion that Jacob was eager to talk with Wendy. She had to be careful if she didn't want Jacob to find out that she was Nick.
Fortunately, Jacob idolizes Wendy and not Roe. Otherwise, the young man will be suspicious of her.
After all, since the first day Kaylee set foot on this campus, Jacob was the closest friend to her. She was afraid if Jacob would notice her as 'Nick' if Jacob stood near her long enough.
anwhile, in another room, Alicia tried to contact 'Nick' restlessly. At the sa ti, Jacob also tried to get Nick with an enthusiastic heart. One wanted to hear answers to her confession while the other desired to tell Nick that he has t his sister.
But both of them couldn't reach Nick because their friend didn't pick up the phone.
Well, actually, the person they were calling was Kaylee, and right now, Kaylee turned on mute mode on her cellphone, so she wouldn't know that soone called her.
"Alice, I never knew you were so good at playing the piano. You're almost on Nick's level." praised one of his friends to make Jacob interested to hear it.
"O, right? I rember Nick playing Liezt's song during the last recital. He is a genius at playing the piano."
"Why doesn't he join this race? I'm pretty sure he has a great chance of winning."
"I'm also surprised. He's obviously talented and genius at playing the piano, but why did he even take guitar music classes as his major?"
Jacob listened to his friends talk with great interest. He had never thought this way before because Nick's choice was none of his business.
But after listening to his friends' talk, Jacob beca curious about why Nicholas Larson didn't take the piano class as his major?
Jacob once listened to Nick's piano playing on a television monitor because the recital was held behind closed doors. Still, his appearance was broadcast on television for other applicants to see.
Even though he had only listened to his play once, Jacob knew imdiately that the boy was a prodigy boy. His body language style, expression, and long-pressing fingers dancing on the piano tuts could steal the listener's breath.
For so reason, Jacob suddenly missed his best friend. Even though they will et on Monday, he wanted to talk to his best friend.
Regrettably, Nick didn't pick up the phone, so Jacob decided to look for Wendy to ask about his brother, who hasn't been contactable.
Well, the real reason was because he wanted to see Wendy again.

When Jacob arrived in the corridor where the juries were resting, Jacob's footsteps stopped when he saw a girl in a pink dress daydreaming out of the window.
Her figure from the side looks like a silhouette of a beautiful girl admiring the beauty of the universe.
At first, he didn't pay much attention to Roe because he was more interested in eting Wendy. Now when he looked at the girl who seed oblivious to his presence, Jacob realized that this girl nad Roe was charming.
No wonder his friends admired Roe and called her the ideal girl.
Her tiny fra and looked so fragile makes anyone want to protect her. Her thin lips and dimples that always appear every ti the girl smiles captivated all the hearts of n in this world.
Jacob knew Roe was a composer and arranger who was quite outstanding in this country. Even her na was well known in the European continent and had invited her to the noble ball party.
Sadly, Roe never accepted the invitation and chose not to go abroad. Nobody knew why Roe refused, and they could only wonder why Roe gave up this golden opportunity.
Jacob moved his foot to get closer to Roe, and his ear caught a muttering of a lody he often heard.
Isn't this…
Nick often mumbled this lody whenever he was in a daze. Why could he hear it from Roe? Or is it a popular lody this year? Why wouldn't he know about it?
Jacob's footsteps stopped, and at that mont, he noticed the small movent Roe was making.
At this point, Roe moved her finger over the window sill as if she were playing piano keys. Precisely seeing this, Jacob frowned even more.
Why does Roe have the sa habits as Nick? And why is Roe singing the lody that Nick sings a lot?
When Jacob closed his eyes, he even felt he was hearing Nick singing the lody!
What is this?
