"Hey!" The guy greeted to which grace responded with a smile, she recognized him being that introverted looking guy she met earlier
"I guess were both separated from our friends" The guy chuckled "Now that we seem to have bumped into each other quite often, shouldn't we atleast know each other's name?" He asked
"oh haha right, my name's Grace" grace then reached his hands out
"I'm paul" Paul replied, accepting the girl's handshake
Unbeknownst to them, was the future where they'll be interacting quite a lot...
Practice finally ended, Grace and her group of friends then gathered together sharing their thoughts and experience about earlier when they noticed the group of guys waving and walking towards them
"Hey!" Jai shouted, waving his hands whilst smiling at the girls as he and his friends headed towards them.
"Why are we going to them? They might feel uncomfortable!" Paul stated
"Stop with the uncomfortable nonsense grandpa! You should thank me for this opportunity to talk again with the girl" Jai teased
"I said i don't like her!" Paul replied
renz then smirked and said "Jai didn't even mentioned the 'like' word, plus we saw you talking earlier with her during practice dummy"
Out of embarassment, Paul lightly smacked jai and renz then he stopped when they were already in front of the girls
"Hi there! Mind if we join you guys?" Jai asked
"No, not at all" Ana replied and invited the guys to sit with them
"By the way, earlier we weren't able to introduce ourselves which is quite rude. I'm Jairo Salazar, call me jai" Jai introduced
"I'm renz"
"Paul"
"Don't mind him, He's just shy to talk to pretty girls. And by the way the name's Dave" The friendly looking one introduced
"And i'm damien" the brown haired guy said
"Guess it's our turn, i'm ana"
"I'm abby" The curly haired girl introduced, followed by the long haired one "Hi! My name's Elyza, you can call me ely"
"I'm Grace" Grace warmly smiled
"And i'm bea"
"Nice to meet you all! So how's practice?" Jai being the extrovert he is, asked
"It was fun and interesting! And i love our roles since we don't have to pressure ourselves much though it's kinda sad that grace is separated from us" Ely explained.
"Oh you don't have to worry much about your friend, Paul here got her covered" Damien replied, giving paul a teasing look
The four girls giggled eyeing their friend who became even more shy.
Laughter with bit of tease then filled the atmosphere as both group of friends slowly became comfortable with one another. Then it was followed by another practice before they all headed home as the day ended.
The following days were filled with practice while also balancing their school activities, even though they were excused from their classes they still had to do some activities
"I wanna rest~" Ana complained, the five were eating their lunch while also finishing a project as they have practice again later on 1pm
"Same, can you guys help me with this? I'm getting confused" Bea asked
"We haven't even finished ours as well" Ely replied, just then she noticed something wrong "Why are we the only ones here? Weren't the other students also eating here minutes ago?" She asked
The others then noticed the cafeteria empty, and as if on cue abby looked at her phone and gasped "Shit. It's alrealy 1:05m were late for practice!"
The others immediately packed their things, and didn't even bother that they haven't finished their lunch yet and started running to their designated practice area."Where are they? Practice is gonna start soon" Paul whispered to himself, however his friends had still heard as it was quite obvious he was worried about something...or someone
"Calm down your horses, there they are" Renz replied pointing to the group of girls who just entered the place, all panting and catching their breaths.
"Ow my stomache hurts, running after eating ain't exactly a good idea" Grace said while clutching his stomach
"Well, we made it at least" Abby replied then they joined the other performers as practice finally started.
A week full of practice passed and it was finally time for them to perform, the performers agreed to gather at their school first so they could all go together to the complex which was the venue.
Abby and ana arrived 30 minutes early, followed by ely who arrived 10 minutes after abby and ana while bea arrived 10 minutes early, as the time passes the four were starting to worry about their friend grace, they all had already texted her however they were left with a seen.
"Should we go to to her place? we're gonna leave in 10 minutes and she's not even responding to our texts" Abby asked the others, obviously concerned
Renz, who happened to be near them and noticed that they were only four asked "Hey, where's grace? We're gonna leave soon"
"We don't know, we tried contacting her but she wouldn't reply" Ely replied
Ana then sighed "That's it i'm going to her place!" She announced
Renz's friends also noticed the panicked and worried faces of the girls and went to them
"Hey it's already 7:50 pm and the road is quite dark, it's gonna be dangerous for you guys to leave" Damien said, concerned about the girls
"I'll go" And that was all paul said before vanishing leaving the others completely baffled and confused
