"Am I hearing this? Colet Vergara is humming a song for the first time?"
"Shut up, Ace. You are being delusional."
"For your information, I have good hearing ears to use so wala ka naman takas sa akin."
"I am just familiarizing the new song I just made for the band. I don't have enough time to practice longer with them since our game will happen tomorrow night."
"Oo nga pala, nakakapagod naman yung schedule mo. I told you naman before to take coach's advice for you. May assurance kasi yung future mo dito rather entering sa music scene lalo na at bago pa kayo."
Colet was going to speak up until a group of girls have entered the gym in where they are practicing. It turns out to be their opponent team for tomorrow's game and they are here to conduct an exhibition match with them.
"I didn't know sila yung unang katapat natin."
"Ako rin, biggest rival natin talaga noh."
"I can never forget what they did to you, Ace."
"Forget about it, all we have to do now is win against them so we could make it to the finals of this conference."
"All players, be ready on your respective areas as we will start the exhibition match in a bit."
"Ready to take them down, cap?"
"You know it."
*in the music studio*
"Hindi ako sanay na wala si Ate Colet today."
"It's a good thing you voiced that out, Jho. Ang off kasi ng drummer nareto ng producer natin. I couldn't focus on my bass lines."
"Why don't we just skip practice for now? There is no point of accomplishing a good practice if we are not liking on what we are producing, just a waste of time and energy."
"I agree with, Gwen. Does that mean we are going home na?"
"Nah, I have somewhere in my mind we could go. Hintayin lang natin si Mr. drummer bumalik so we could leave him here and clean this up. I am sure you will be surprised once we reached there, Ate Maloi."
Just as Gwen said that, the studio door opened and revealed a not so tall boy wearing his glasses who is their replacement drummer for the meantime on the band's practices.
"I am done taking the restroom, we cou—
"Practice is over, kid. Clean up this mess and you are free to go pagkatapos. May gagawin pa kaming apat so we are going ahead."
Mikha went out first after the ordering the boy while Jhoanna and Gwen followed behind the girl.
"I am sorry on how they are acting, have a good night and hope you arrive home safely."
"Thank you, Ms. Maloi. Mag-ingat din kayo."
Maloi managed to nod the younger boy and paced herself outside seeing the girls waiting for her at Mikha's car.
"What took you so long, Ate Maloi?"
"Kinausap ko lang si Matt and apologizing on the way you are all acting towards him lalo na while we were practicing."
"Alam mo, Ate Maloi. Maswerte yung bata na yun na hindi niya pa nakita si Ate Colet. The three of us were still at level one of being strict. How much more kung nandoon yung perfectionist member natin, ipagdadasal ko na talaga yung kaluluwa niya."
"He is an intern and we don't want to soften him up or wala siyang matutunan especially that he dreams to become a drummer in the near future. In that way na if we are being honest on our critics sa ginagawa niya, he will learn from it and apply those insights."
