Chapter 158 Mikayla tousled her hair confidently and said, âWell, that right? Arenât I just the coolest?
Michael couldnât help but be amused by Mikaylaâs antics.
He nodded repeatedly and flattered her.
âYouâre so cool! Youâre just like a professional drummer!â
âYoung man, youâve got good taste!â Mikayla patted Michaelâs arm playfully. âCome on, let me treat you to a drink!â
âMiss, and us too! We want drinks too!â The band members chimed in excitedly and followed along.
Mikayla felt delighted as she waved her hand generously.
of course, everyone will a their drinks! Letâs all drink together!â
The group surrounded Mikayla and settled into a spacious booth, ordering plenty of snacks and drinks while complimenting her.
âMiss, I didnât expect you to play the drums like a pro!â
âExactly! The way you twirled the drumstick was so cool. Why donât you join our band?â
Kenny suggested, âWilson and you should play the drums together. It would be amazing!â
âYeah, I agree! If she joins us, Iâm sure sheâll be more popular than Michael!â
âThatâs for sure. I canât compete with her.â Michael chimed in with a laugh.
Seeing the enthusiastic and youthful faces around her, Mikayla felt a surge of passion herself.
The last time she played the drums so freely was at a freshmen party in college.
She received many compliments from her classmates, and even a renowned teacher had offered to mentor her However, fearing that Jerome would disapprove of her, she let the opportunity slip away.
Later several of the teacherâs students achieved success in the music industry.
If she hadnât refused, perhaps she would have been one of them.
âI know you all really want me to join your band, but Iâm sorry. I already have my career plans. Unfortunately, Iâve to let you all down.â
Mikayla purposefully acted cold and shook her head, causing everyone to exclaim in regret and disappointment.
After that, they all laughed together.
âCome on, letâs make a toast to !â
Kenny and the others raised their glasses.
Mikayla didnât want to spoil the fun, so she lifted her glass and shouted, âCheers!â
After several rounds of drinks, Michael became worried that Mikayla might get drunk and stopped everyone from toasting her.
The band members, fueled by alcohol, went back onstage to perform.
Michael looked at Mikayla with concern and asked, âMiss, are you okay?â
âHow could I not be?â Mikayla smiled at Michael and said, âMicheal, thank you. Iâm feeling very happy right now.â
Looking at Mikaylaâs eyes shimmering with joy and laughter, Michael couldnât help but avert his eyes away.
As he handed her a glass of water, he said earnestly, âYou can come here as often as you like. Or, you can consider Kennyâs suggestion and join us.â
Michael continued, âYour sense of music and rhythm are excellent. With a little bit of practice, you can surpass any professional drummer.â
Mikayla took a sip of water and smiled.
âThank you for thinking so highly of me, but my dreams are already over. Thatâs for the of you to pursue. Iâll just join in occasionally.â
Perhaps if she had met them a few years earlier, she wouldâve considered it.
Now, her life was filled with worldly concerns and scheming plots.
She couldnât love as genuinely they did anymore Chapter 158 Later, Mikayla chatted and played some drinking games with the band members.
Time flew by quickly.
âMiss, your phone is ringing!â
Someone reminded Mikayla as she was playing rockâpaperâscissors with Kenny.
She took out her phone.
It was Amy.
âAmy, whatâs the matter?â Mikayla asked.
Perhaps it was too noisy from her side.
Amy hesitated for a moment before asking cautiously, âMadam, where are you? Itâs quite noisy over there.â
