Chapter 46

"Okay, here are the things Gwen asked me to mention so you can think about it before she discusses it with you." Tasha clears her throat. "You're invited to headline the Live Wonder Music and Arts Festival and to do the encore of World Disc Awards."

"Woah, I missed seeing you turn the awards shows into a concert stage," Calvin remarks. "I'm sure he'll grab it, right, dude?"

Sebastian bit his lower lip while staring blankly at nothingness. "When is it again?"

"2 weeks from now,"

"I want the concert to be my next stage performance though..." He mumbles, but loud enough for us to hear.

Tasha nudges me. "Convince him," She mouths while giving me the widest eyes she could offer.

"This would be a great promotion for your upcoming activities though. You know, people tend to crave for more when they often see you," I say, trying to convince him, not because Tasha asked me to, but because he'll gain more attention out of it,  and that's what CEO Park and Gwen think too. "It's just my opinion. You still have the final say 'cause it's you who'll be on stage." I add, cackling.

Tasha and Calvin are in our place, they wanted to hang out with us when they discovered that we're taking some days off but unlike the last time, they are now spending the night here.

They came in with plenty of grocery stuff in hand for our planned barbecue dinner in the front yard but the thing about them that I like is that they buy the expensive and most fancy ones, so we're having smoked steak tonight instead of the usual pork belly.

"Exactly!" Calvin claps his hand. "Dude, you'll dominate the internet once again if you do these blockbuster acts." Calvin excitedly says.

I know why they're trying to convince him; they want to see Sebastian perform as many times as possible before he turns his back on his career to focus on his life, because even though we're friends, we want to see him enjoy what he's born to do and take the once in a lifetime opportunities that are being laid on the table, especially for him.

Aren't we the most supportive circle he could ever ask for? That's why we deserve a chunk of property from him.

We know how much he loves being in front of his fans, leading them to sing his greatest hits, it's just his worries and overthinking that get in the way sometimes.

"Oops, I forgot to add that you're also nominated for the Artist of the Year Award, so that's probably the reason why they want to give you the final performance," Tasha adds.

All I can say is, WOW.

"That's your second win if you get it again this time," I can't help but utter.

"I still remember how you swept off and made every celebrity present in the Awards show in-awe the last time you won the same thing. Goosebumps!" Calvin says with so much exaggeration.

Sebastian is the first and only solo artist to ever win the Artist of the Year Award of World Disc Awards while the rest of the years are either girl group or boy band.

The thing about Sebastian? He never once went home from an Awards show without holding a trophy.

"I'll do it,"

See? He wants to do it too and a little reassurance will make him decide and feel like he's being guided with whatever he decides to do.

I feel like it's part of my role as his girlfriend.

He turns to face me. "It might affect our schedule though."

I wink. "I got it, bae." I confidently answer even though deep inside, I'm starting to panic—thinking how else can I fit all the preparations we need to get over with ahead of the concert.
