I stared at Michelle with an amused expression as she tried to make me laugh. I was currently in work mode. Meaning there was no room for laughter as my team continued to work diligently.
Of course, Michelle was insistent on keeping me level headed as well as making sure I wasn't stressed. I appreciated her dedication to making me laugh but I'd be lying if I said it wasn't slowing me down.
I was working with another producer for this song that I'd been having trouble with for weeks. I thought he could give me another perspective as I took a step back from the song but honestly he was only making things worse.
If it weren't for Michelle being here with me and making me laugh I would have already cussed him out. But Michelle was determined to keep me smiling and made sure to tell me to calm down whenever I was about to snap on him.

"Uh—I think it might be a pitch problem let me check it out.." He said as he replayed the song in all of our headphones.
"I swore I said that three damn minutes ago but nobody listens when I speak around here.." I mumbled, rolling my eyes.
Michelle swatted at my stomach, "Be nice.."
"bE nIcE.." I mocked her. She swatted at me again but on my thigh this time leaving a sting on my skin. "Alright, when I hit you back don't say anything.." I said.
Her smile faded as she started listening to the song. I listened still not satisfied with the outcome but dismissed him anyway. I knew I would have to do this myself but I tried to give someone a chance.
After he left, Michelle and I stayed put inside the studio going over the song until I was satisfied. By the time I was done, I looked over finding her knocked out in the chair with her headphones still resting on her head.
