"Here!"
Joji grabbed it from Brian's fingers and attached it to the screw that twists the lever thing.
"Thank you, Brian." He smiled. He twisted it and the music played.
Joji observed the snow globe and noticed a writing.
"Abares- Abra- Arbe-"
"Arabesque No. 1. That's the name of the song." I cut him off. His lips mouthed an 'oh' and nodded.
"Is it bussy- pussy- Claire-" "Claude Debussy. We don't pronounce it like 'the pussy', Joji. Say it like 'Duh-bew-see'." I corrected.
"You can play the piece?" He asked, knowing about my piano skills. He put the snow globe back to the table.
"Yeah, of course. What, you want me to play it?" I pointed a finger at his piano.
"No, don't worry. I'm just gonna add that to my playlist." "Goddamn, after all these years, you don't even know the name of the piece?" Brian scoffed. Joji chuckled and opened his phone to add the song in his playlist.
I picked up the pillows from the ground and organized them back on the couch. I sat back down and resumed the movie we were watching. It was an old romcom movie, to be exact. I didn't even remember the name of the movie. It wasn't that entertaining, but I believed it'll get better.
"Ugh, what is this shit? Can you play 'The Office' or NatGeo or something?" Joji groaned.
"Yeah, okay." Brian grabbed the remote from beside my thigh and exited the app on the TV. He then played some NatGeo on the TV and Joji sat on the couch across me.
"Remember when we used to laugh at some fucking goats jumping on the side of a cliff?" Joji chuckled.
"Yeah. It wasn't even funny." I giggled.
"We weren't even drunk or high, right? We were just, fucking around." Brian turned around to face us, looking amused at what we used to do.
"Yeah... It was her thing." Joji sighed.
By 'her' he meant y/n. We can tell he missed her so much. Every single thing we do reminded him of her. He's been waiting to meet her again since she promised.
"Come on, don't get gloomy again." I put a hand on his shoulder and pat it. He smiled and nodded.
Suddenly, Brian's phone rang. He picked his phone up and observed the name on the screen. It said 'Sean'. He put his phone against his ear and greeted Sean.
"What's up?" Brian spoke up. "Hey, can you come to the studio tonight at 10? I also need Niki and Joji too. We can work on the verse Niki and Joji wrote." I heard Sean's small voice from the phone.
"Wait, both of 'em are here. Lemme put it on speaker." Brian put his phone away from his ear and pressed the speaker button. "You're on."
"Hey, Sean." I spoke up.
"Hey, come to the studio at 10 okay? We can work on the 'La La Land' verse you guys wrote last night. I have some people that can help. August's coming too."
"Oh, yeah. Of course." "Okay, see you guys." Sean hung up.
"Wait, do you put the verse in your notes?"
"Yeah, don't worry about it." Joji rested his head on a pillow and continued to watch the show.

"Sup, guys." Sean greeted us as we walked into the studio.
"Hey, Sean." Niki gave Sean a side hug, followed by Brian doing the same.
