Dear 12: Music Jam at the Balcony + Alone With Me

All I know
Is that you want to break it
I just want to say
Is that your feeling?
You know what you are?
Tell me why
Did you turn your back right to me
You drive me crazy!

- Never Let This Go

"What a nice cover song!" Vanessa said after my performance. The crowd even sang a birthday song for me, too.

"Glad that you like it." I gave her a small smile.

"Who wouldn't? You can be a performer!" She shifted her gaze to Taka. "Hey Taka, you can help Winter to produce some songs, right?"

"Why not? It'll be an honor to do so." My eyes went wide at Taka's statement.

"I'm waiting for a collaboration here." Mel suggested.

"Great! I'm so excited!" Ellie squealed.

"Me too! I want to work with Winter." Ryota tapped my head.

"Me three!" Tomoya added.

"Me four?" Toru grinned at me.

"Thank you again, guys. I can't contain my happiness right now." I bowed at them.

Two more bands performed before ONE OK ROCK. Taka said that they will be the final act and went to the stage as Janis and Zandrei introduced them.

"Good evening, we're ONE OK ROCK! Our first song is called Decision."

Their set-up is an acoustic jam so both Toru and Ryota got acoustic guitars while Tomoya's got a beatbox.

Another day
Another life
I wanna live it to the fullest
A little work
A lotta play
Alright

No time to give, no time to take away
So here we go again with my mistakes
We'll never be as young as we are now

You say it's all right
You say it's OK
It's up to you? Is that the truth? Tell me
I'm feeling used with no one to save me
You say it's all right
Does that make it OK?
What's best for you
Is less for me
It's my decision

"My kokoro is melting, oh my! They're really good at performing live!" Ellie dramatically clutched her chest. I was about to ask her what kokoro means but I think it means heart, based on her reaction.

I wanna be all that I can be, I wanna
to see the light and to live for me so I
I'm gonna seize the day, please don't forget my name oh
We'll never be as young as we are now

"That's one of the things that OOR is good at. They're even better at performing live." Mel said while eyeing the OOR boys.

"Taka's voice makes me ascend into heaven!" Vane squealed. I nodded at her.

The three of them were in their fangirling moment while I'm contended watching the acoustic jam silently. I think I'm speechless right now.

The crowd applauded and cheered after the song ended.

"Here's another song for all of you. This song is called Cry Out."

Switch the light off welcome to the night
What's the problem, not gonna make it right?
Bite the bullet then pull the trigger hold tight
(It's a feeling you know)

Running under
Lights off in the sky
Nothing matters When you're in the fight
Hold your fire
Maybe we can make it all right
(You take, take, take, take me for no one)
