under the sun - gjon's tears

I Meant It.

The sun shone brightly over your house as you and gjon ate breakfast and discussed babi in your studio.

"oohh.. Put some drums here and stop them there!" said gjon, pointing at a point in the song on the computer.

"should we have one of those pauses here?" you asked.

"yesss!" said gjon, slumping down onto his chair.

"well," you started.

"well?" said gjon uncertainly.

"its finished! Obviously we still need to record you singing and then the music video, but this is a start." you explained.

"can we record me now?" asked gjon hopefully.

"Yes sure, just sit on that chair over there and start singing when I say." you pointed to a chair in an enclosed glass room.

"start in... 3....2....1....NOW!"

Gjon started to sing the lyrics of babi,
" I can't see this fight again
It's too much for my brain
This has got out of hand
It is time for the end

I can't sleep without thinking of it
We need to talk about it

Ti ma morri babin ne k'të mjegull
Babi im, babi im
Ti ma morri babin ne k'të mjegull
Babi im, babi tim

You always got to the bar
After leaving me a scar
And after all those issues
Our love would be abused

I can't sleep without thinking of it
We need to talk about it

Ti ma morri babin ne k'të mjegull
Babi im, babi tim
Ti ma morri babin ne k'të mjegull
Babi im, babi im

What else can I say to see you coming back
What else can I do to stop this attack
All I can do and say is, I love you dad

Ti ma morri
Babin
Në ktë mjegull

Ti ma morri babin ne k'të mjegull
Babi im, babi tim
Ti ma morri babin ne k'të mjegull
Babi im, babi tim

I can't see this fight again.."

"wow..amazing." you said.

"can I hear it now?" asked gjon, putting his headphones down and walking back into the room.

"it was great, yes sure." you said, putting on the lyrics.

After gjon finished listening to the lyrics, he put down the headphones and dived Into a hug with you.

"thanks so much for helping me." he said through the hug.

"no problem gjon, best friends help each other out, you said that yourself."

After letting go of you, gjon and you started walking down the stairs to your living room.

"we should go on a walk, it would be nice after staying inside the whole day, don't get me wrong, writing this song is really fun, but sometimes it's to icolating from everything else." said gjon.

"I agree, it's super dark in there too." you said.

As you walked up a hill, you and gjon started a very awkward conversation, although you didn't know it would be awkward at that moment.

"so what did you do at your parents?" you asked.

"not much, they just wanted to see how I am or something."

" the only 'sophisticated' conversation I've had in weeks was with my grandparents, the only thing they care about is if Swiss cities actually all have chocolate factories." you said, rolling your eyes.

As you and gjon lay down on the grass, you turned your head towards him, he was a way nicer view than the blinding sun above you, the shadows shaped his contour neatly and he was humming the lyrics to babi under his breath.

Gjon also turned towards you and you locked eyes.
'No, noooo, stop looking!' you thought in your head, but yet, gjon's eyes locked into yours seemed to send you into some kind of paralysed trance. You Couldn't move, you could only stare into gjon's twinkling eyes.
