*15 Years Later*
Today is Jaspar's 15th birthday, October 2, 2040. As of lately, Jaspar has shown an interest in becoming a singer. He attends President McKinley High School and is currently a freshman.
"Mom, can you pay for vocal lessons for me? I really want to become a singer when I grow up. You and dad were singers, right?" Jaspar asked.
"Your father, Colby, was a pop-punk singer. I only did singing as a hobby, but I'm just an English high school teacher." I said.
"Ah, well I wanna be a singer like dad then." Jaspar said.
"You can be whatever you put your mind to, honey." I said.
"Then, sign me up for vocal classes, please mom." Jaspar said.
"Okay, I'll look for private vocal coaches in the Honolulu area." I said.
"Ah! Thank you so much, mom. Also, I have another question. I was born in Korea, right? Why?" Jaspar asked.
"You were born in Seoul, South Korea because your father and I had conceived in Jeju, South Korea, and your dad insisted that you be born in Korea. Your birth certificate is in Korean as well." I said.
"Okay, I didn't need to know that you and dad conceived in Korea, ugh gross." Jaspar said.

Jaspar has grown up to be quite handsome. He has brown hair, brown eyes, and the personality of Colby. He is also quite tall for a 15-year-old. He is 5'10 at 15, which is insane. As for Julia, she has blue eyes, brown hair, and is around 5'3. Our kids have a fairly interesting ethnic background. They are a 1/4 Filipino, and 3/4 European background. 25% Filipino and 75% European. While I don't believe their ethnic background defines them as people, but it's important to note. They have a diverse background, and they should be proud of that.

Julia is currently in middle school at one of the best middle schools in all of Honolulu. During my search for vocal coaches for Jaspar, I found a vocal coach named Daniel Choi. He is classically trained, and has a Doctorates Music Degree specializing in vocal performance. He graduated from Korea University in Seoul, South Korea. He spent his early years as a vocal coach at SM Entertainment; training the likes of Byun Baekhyun, Kim Jongin (Kai), Lee Taemin, Cho Kyuhyun, Kim Taeyeon, and Kim Junmyeon(Suho). He only recently moved to the States to train young, hopeful kids who want to become the next big thing. I got in contact with Daniel Choi, hoping that he would be willing to give my son, Jaspar, private vocal lessons here in Honolulu.

About a week goes by and Daniel gets back to me. I had wrote to him in Korean, because that is the language he is most comfortable with. He messaged me back and said he would love to come out to Honolulu to be my son's vocal coach. Within that same day of getting the message back, Daniel arrives in Honolulu.
"Jaspar!! Come down here, please!" I exclaimed.
"Yeah? What's up?" Jaspar asked.
"Your vocal coach, Daniel Choi, is here. He is a classically trained singer and was the vocal coach of many famous K-pop idols." I said.
"Oh, cool. Hey, man what's up? My name is Jaspar Brock." Jaspar said.
"Hello, my name is Daniel Choi. I will be your vocal coach, help you become good singer." Daniel said.
"제 아들은 아버지처럼 가수가 되고 싶어합니다." I explained(My son wants to become a singer like his father)
"그는 아빠 누구예요?" Daniel asked(Who is his father)
"Colby!!!" I screamed.
"Yes, honey?" Colby asked, running downstairs.
"Meet Daniel Choi. He's going to be Jaspar's vocal coach. He said he wants to be a singer like you." I said.
"Hello, Daniel. Also, son. There's something you need to know. I wasn't always a singer. I was actually a YouTuber, and before that, I was a Viner." Colby said.
"What's a Viner?" Jaspar asked.
"Right, your generation doesn't have Vine. It was a social media platform that allowed you to post 6-second videos, and I shared that account with my best friend from high school named Sam Golbach. After Vine died, we then moved to YouTube, where we did videos about exploring abandoned buildings, beginning on April 30, 2015, when your dad was a wee little lad. I was only 18 at the time. We did exploring abandoned buildings until we got arrested for trespassing on January 16, 2019. We then switched our content to exploring the paranormal world. We officially closed our channel, or rather stopped posting when you were born, actually. So yeah, I wasn't always a singer. I was a social media influencer first." Colby explained.
"Oh, so you were a social media influencer. I see. But you did release an all-original EP right?" Jaspar asked.
"I did yeah. It took a while, but I eventually did. The lead single was Skin, and there were 6 songs on the EP in addition to Skin." Colby said.
"Let me go find it, I think I have the CD somewhere." I said.
"Who listens to CDs anymore? It's literally 2040." Jaspar said.
"You know what, your mother does." Colby said.
I ran upstairs and looked through my many storage boxes. I eventually find Colby's EP. It's titled Skin, after the lead single on the EP. I run back downstairs, with the Skin EP in my hand.
"Ah, there it is. I remember I released this way back in 2022. It took a couple months to finish making all the songs, but I eventually got to releasing it as my debut EP." Colby said.
"Let's take a listen." Daniel said.
