Broken

Chapter 3

LISA'S POV

Rosè, Bambam, Jackson and I are waiting for our time to perform at the bar that we're performing for a year now. Rosè is our vocalist/ gitarist/ pianist. She's the most musically inclined in our group. While Bambam played bass guitar and Jackson plays the lead. I'm the drummer by the way.

We are tackling the arrangement of the songs that we will play when I felt someone is staring at me.

Out of curiousity, I looked at the way where I feel like someone is looking and I was not wrong. There's a girl at the other side of the bar that is indeed looking at me.

I got surprised that even though I caught her, she did not move or look away but instead, she stared back at me. I think I have seen her before. Or maybe not? I don't actually care right now.

As I stare at her more, I realized that she is the girl whom I bumped with at the university. I was about to give her a smirk for acknowledgement but our staring contest was cut off by the other girl in the table.

As I looked at the them, I saw Nayeon that is sitting with them. Maybe they are friends. I knew Nayeon cause she's friends with Dahyun which is our favorite bartender here in this bar.

I turned my attention again to my bandmates and let them decide on their own. I'm just here to play and drink anyway. I am half way to my third bottle of beer when Rosè spoke to me.

"Lisa, slow down on drinking. We still have gig to perform." She reminded me.

"No need to worry, Rosie. It's just my third anyway." I answered like it was not a big deal.

She just sighed and let me do my thing.

I consider Rosè as my best friend. I admit that I'm a jerk and all but only Rosè never left my side through thick and thin. I've known her since childhood. As for Bambam and Jackson, they've been with me in our college years and was introduced by Rosè when she decided to create a band and perform.

Rosè is always a performer. She wanted to sing and share the songs that she created. And since being a drummer on her band is just one of her few favors from me, I gave in.

After a few minutes, it's time for our set. We will play 3 consecutive songs to start of and will ask for some requests from the audience and of course, they will give us tip for that. We played for one and a half hour to end our set.

As we perform, I became oblivious of my surroundings and just drowned myself at the music we create. Maybe this is the reason too why I agreed to perform. It's kind of my escape goat to my reality

When we finished, we drink for some more cause our drinks is covered by the bar anyways.

"Rosè, are you doing some originals again?" Jackson asked.

"Yup. I've written two songs already. I'll let you guys hear it so we can put some arrangements to it." She answered.

"Lisa, your house up for it?" Bambam asked me.

"Of course. Anytime." I answered then drink again.

We are using my house as our studio since I'm just alone. In there we are making our music. I am also writting songs but it is far different from the one Rosè is making.
