*Shyra's POV*
"So Shyra, we've watched the clip you had mailed, several times. But before we go ahead with anythin', we wanna make sure we ain't doin' anythin' wrong." Lucian Grainge, the CEO of UMG said.
I nodded, as if asking him to continue.
"We'd want to hear you sing to us, live. Now." He shrugged his shoulders.
"Yeah, sure." I said, sitting straight on the chair.
"Okay then. Go for it." He smiled.
I thought for a few seconds on which song do I sing.
"Can I get a guitar, please?"
"Yeah, just a minute." Aric said, getting up from his chair and walking out of the room. He returned within seconds, handing a guitar to me.
I started strumming.
"I figured it out
I figured it out from black and white
Seconds and hours
Maybe they had to take some time
I know how it goes
I know how it goes from wrong and right
Silence and sound
Did they ever hold each other tight
Like us? Did they ever fight
Like us?
You and I
We don't wanna be like them
We can make it 'til the end
Nothing can come between
You and I
Not even the Gods above
Can separate the two of us
No, nothing can come between
You and I
Oh, you and I
I figured it out
Saw the mistakes of up and down
Meet in the middle
There's always room for common ground
I see what it's like
I see what it's like for day and night
Never together
'Cause they see things in a different light
Like us, but they never tried
Like us
You and I
We don't wanna be like them
We can make it 'til the end
Nothing can come between
You and I
Not even the Gods above
Can separate the two of us"
I closed my eyes, going for the high note.
" 'Cause you and I
We don't wanna be like them
We can make it 'til the end
Nothing can come between
You and I
Not even the Gods above
Can separate the two of us
No, nothing can come between
You and I, you and I
Oh, you and I
Oh, you and I
We can make it if we try
You and I
Oh, you and I"
I ended.
I waited for Lucian, Samantha, Aric and Dylan to say something, but they kept quiet. Don't tell me I fucked up. Please don't.
"Shyra...." Samantha started, but couldn't complete.
"You know what! Just sign on these contract papers already. I want you on the team. You're a beautiful singer. Damn!" Dylan shouted.
"What!" I said.
OH MY GOD, SHYRA. YOU DID IT.
"Yeah, go ahead. Sign on them. We really want you." Samantha smiled.
I took the pen lying the desk and thanked god in my mind, before signing the contract.
"Welcome to Universal Music Groups, Shyra Iyer!" Lucian said, a wide grin on his face.
"Could you please pose for us infront of the UMG sign? It's for our social media." Aric said.
"Yeah, why not."
Aric clicked one picture of me smiling and another one of a very excited and shocked me. Soon enough UMG posted it on their social media. I retweeted it on all my social media accounts.
"So, Shyra, getting back to work. You know how each artist is assigned a manager, yeah?" Lucian asked me.
"Yeah."
"Cool. So, Samantha here, will be managing you." He smiled.
"Oooh! I'm so excited." Samantha hugged me.
"Getting back to work part 2. I want your debut single ready by next week." Lucian said.
Next week? What?
"Okay." I said, confidently.
"Good. See you soon, Shyra." We shook hands. He bid the rest goodbye and rushed out.
"He's a really busy man." Dylan said.
"Yeah, I can see." I chuckled.
"This calls for celebration!" Aric spoke.
"Let's go to Bernie's Lounge!" Samantha suggested.
"You guys carry on. I gotta go meet Liam." Dylan said.
"It's for his next song." He added quickly.
He looked at me for a minute, a thinking expression on his face.
"Actually, I'll come. I'll bring Liam along too. Is it cool?" He asked.
"Liam Payne?" I asked
"Yeah, you know him?"
"I mean, who doesn't." I chuckled.
"Bring him along." I added quickly.
"Good. I really want you guys to meet. Okay, so let me tell this to you. For Liam's next song, we need a female artist, but we ain't gettin' the voice we want. And, I really like your voice, and I think it'll be perfect for this song. I've forwarded the clip you had sent us to him. Li- Oh just a minute. He's calling." Dylan said, as his phone started ringing.
"Hey mate. What's up?" Dylan spoke.
"Oh you did? How did you like it?"
"Really? You think so?"
"Superb. 'Cuz I had the same thing runnin' in my mind. I'm pretty sure this one's gonna be number one." Dylan smiled, looking at me.
"She just signed up with us a few minutes ago. We're going to the Bernie's later on. Tag along. I told her I'd bring you."
"Yeah cool. Will see you in Bernie's. Bye."
Dylan kept the phone inside his pocket and looked at me.
"Well, well, seems like, Mr. Payne really likes your voice. He does want to collaborate. Congratulations, Shyra." Dylan smiled.
"Oh my god. This is unbelievable. Thanks a ton, Dylan." I smiled back.
I'M GOING TO COLLABORATE WITH LIAM PAYNE!
OH MY GOD.
