Cyril (English Version)

11

It's Day 4 already.

The lights and decorations are already set up.

The decorating committee will now take care of the sound system.

They need to install speakers.

They also need to build and set up a stage for the performers and orchestra.

There are a bunch of sound equipment and instruments placed on the grass and cement.

"Your mom and dad really are extra. They even have an orchestra to play." Cyril commented.

"You know them. They love to push the envelope."

"Well... I guess we can agree that the orchestra is a perfect match to the ball."

"Yeah. A perfect match indeed."

They both look at each other once again.

Elijah just stared at them while smirking.

Cyril's attention then shifted to Elijah.

"Oh I just remembered, I still have to help them, you guys do whatever you need to do here."

"All right." Patrick and Elijah both answered.

Now, the two of them look at each other.

They go straight inside of the activity hall, while carrying some objects with them.

Elijah continued fixing the wires, while Patrick continued staring at Cyril.

Elijah noticed that he was standing still.

"Hey, what are you standing there for?"

Elijah notices that Patrick is looking at Cyril.

"Ahh..."

He looked at his friend again.

"But you know he's gonna leave, right?"

Patrick looks at Cyril again.

"And you know that you have something else to take care of, right?"

"That's why I'm making the most of it while he's still here, right?"

Elijah remembers Patrick's situation.

"Aren't you going to tell him?"

Patrick calms himself down.

"Maybe some other time."

Patrick continues to help Elijah and the others with them.

After that, they went straight to the place of the performers.

Later, Patrick and Cyril talked again about the line-up of performers.

Patrick is also testing his guitar on the sound system.

"So are the list of performers complete?"

Patrick asked Cyril.

"Looks okay. Unless you'd like to add yourself?"

He didn't know what Cyril was talking about.

"What?"

Cyril smiles.

Patrick realized what he was implying, and then suddenly doubted his own talent.

"But I'm not even that good."

"Weird. Elijah told me a different story."

Cyril grabbed Patrick's guitar pick.

Taylor Swift's image is on the pick.

"Well... I did learn how to play guitar when I was young. And I do sing a little bit."

Cyril hands Patrick the Taylor Swift guitar pick he is holding as well as a pink classical guitar displayed on the side.

"Why not give me a little snippet?"

"Are you serious?"

"Yes! Maybe you can show it to me while we're still here, right?"

Patrick suddenly felt motivated to show off his talent.
