Serenade Harmony University: Music of Elite

SHU 5- Curiosity

Allegro Prix

"You're interested in Soundrix's sister?" Tanong ni Payton.

I shooked my head. "Just curious. I mean, well, She came from a race of Musicians but she hated music. She's like an oddball." Inosente kong pahayag.

"Stop being nosy, Allegro." Suway ni Moniese sa akin kaya napatawa ako nang bahagya.

I looked at my guitar and I even wonder, how could I hate music? How would I think if I'm also like her and despise music? "It's not like that Moniese. As a Musician, I was bound by Music. We all do, it's just a surprise that we'll encounter and meet a person who's rejecting the music." NAngangatwiran kong saad.

Who wouldn't be curious right? You're in a Music University, a prestigious one at that. Then there's a transferee that just announced in front of the whole class, to us, that she hates music yet she's one of us, a High Elite Student.

What more is, she's the daughter of the well-known music celebrity couple.

"There are many reasons to start with, and as she said, we shouldn't meddle with her. I can feel that she's something." Romanticia said.

"Mabe it's simple like she's not talented like her family?" abi ni Payton kaya napaisip ako.

I think not, so No? She wouldn't be here at our University if she doesn't have any talent Maybe there's a burden?

"Stupid, Pay! One of the first requirements in this Uni is that you must have talent." Pag-kontra naman ni Romanticia, I nodded in agreement to her statement.

I plucked my guitar, we're currently here at the Band Building, practicing and enjoying our time.

"Maybe we can recruit her." Kumbinsido kong sabi kaya sabayan silang nagtingin sa akin. "Are you serious, Bro?" Hindi makapaniwalang tanong ni Payton. I nodded honestly and smiled at them.

"Maybe we can help her, righ-"

"-Well, can you?" Napatingin kami sa pinto at nakita namin si Soundrix.

"You're listening? You didn't even knock!" Gulat na sabi ni Romanticia, I was even shocked by his sudden appearance here. What is he doing here?

"Napadaan lang, Prof Caitlyn asked me to hand this Music Notes para sa inyo- and I heard what you're talking about, My little sis." Soundrix simply explained himself, he raised his hand that was holding a folder.

"Ahh, yeah?"

' Well, sorry for talking about your sister." Paumanhin ni Moniese dito.

"No. it's alright.' Balewalang sabi nito, before he handed me the folderhe's talking about. I take a peek and thanked him.

Nagulat pa kami nang umupo ito sa tabi ko at inakbayan pa ako. Soundrix.. is well- uh, he's hard to read honestly. He was approachable pero hindi mo basta basta makakasama. Even us find it weird, but he was all good and kind.

"I know you're all curious about my sister. Lalo ka na, Prix" Paumpisa nitong sabi, kaya napaawang ang bibig ko. Tumawa ito bago tingnan ang ekspresyon ko. "She's a mystery and a puzzle to begin with. A difficult one." He flaunt his chest na tila proud sa sinasabi ngunit Napabuntong hininga ito.

"She.. never really hated the music to start with." Naguluhan naman kami sa sinasabi nito. "What I meant is she loved it first before she comes to hate it."

Oh?

"Let's just say, Lyricx's potential as a musician is vast like the ocean and high like the sky." The carrying-chair of his manner was change, seryoso niya na itong sinabi sa amin.

Naging makahulugan naman sinasabi nito. Hays.

"Lyricx is once in a century of person that was produced in the humankind. If you all are considered as the prodigies, she's the master and a prodigy of the prodigies." The fact that he was saying high praise not because he doted or complimented her sister, a trace of sincerity could be heard in him. You can never say even that he was boasting, what he's saying right now is a fact.

He's proud yet sad.

"Why did she end up hating it?" Romanticia asked.

"A traumatic incident. I cannot disclose this information, hindi din kasi ako sigurado kung ito ba talaga ang reason why she decided to turned ger back on music." He look at us one-by one. "She was forced to even transfer here."

"What?!"I reacted. Nasiko ako ni Moniese. Kaya naman pala andito siya eh, who would even like to do what she never wanted?

"Dad and Mom are getting really anxious. They could no longer take what she's doing to herself." He sighed deeply. "Lyricx only thought that they only don't want them to waste her talent. Our parents just wanted to get back on what she is. She's talented in the first place."

Now, this got me hooked. What happened to her? Why would she end up throwing away the talent that's given to her? and What can she really do? Is she that great for her parents to be forced here?

My thoughts are running with questions.

"I get her now, just hearing a part of her story makes me understand her a bit." Nalulungkot nasabi ni Moniese.

As a fellow Musician, I can't argue more. She seems lost.

"Can you at least show her something? To make her realize at matauhan na." He tried to cooly brush it off, pero you can feel how worried he is for hus younger sibling.

I looked at my members as if we were exchanging our answers through our eyes.

"Sure. I do want to help, we'll help her even just a little." ngiti kong sagot kay Soundrix. He smiles shortly before laughing out loud.

"I do miss her music."

"I was worried for a moment to you guys, baka kasi mabigla sa inyo ang kapatid ko." Nakangiting saad nito before he stand up and leave my side. "I'll leave now, thank you for considering my little sister and I hope, I really do hope she'll find a way back to the track of music na minahal niya dati." Sabi niya.

"We'll help you, as long as we can," Romanticia said to assure Soundrix. "Uh-huh! You can count on us." tuwang sabi naman ni Moniese

"We're not the greatest if we can't live up to that title."

Ngumisi sa amin si Soundrix. "You'll know once Lyricx hummed or hold an instrument. She's not your ordinary music elite girl." Tumawa ito nang nakakaloko bago sumeryoso muli. "Thank you." Sinserong sabi nito.

"So, what shall we do?" baling ni Payton sa'min nang maka-alis na si Soundrix. Napaisip naman sina Moniese at Romanticia.

"None." Simple kong sabi at akamang babatukan na ako ni Moniese nang magsalita muli ako. "We're just gonna show her what music can do and just go with the flow. We need to be considerate and sensitive towards her and her feelings because it's fatal. She might end up- we might end up making her hate it worse than what it is now."

"So let's just have that goal and let our music resonate through her heart." Kindat ko pa sa mga ito.

"You're kind, Bro." Wala sa sariling sabi ni Payton before he tapped my shoulders. "You're just too nosy."
