Throughout this new process, Tao had to go to new lengths he didn't seem to be entirely used to yet. Especially since he was dealing with such a personality as Angela's. So, suprisingly, one night while we ate dinner together at my humble apartment, he said something I never thought he would.

"I would like your opinion on something."
"Oh? Really?"

"You see, I'm trying to work on Angela's pitch with her and help her stretch the use of her vocal cords to their fullest and most perfect ability, but my original method didn't work."
"And that original method was?" I asked sweetly.

"Using the machine I had engineered to open her mouth to the right extent and pressure her vocal cords through-"

"Ah, I see. You didn't tell her what that thing was before you used it on her, did you?"

He scoffed as I cackled at the dramatic event, before calming down and resting my head on my hand, "Anyways, I'm guessing you've already thought of a new approach?"

"Yes. I've read that using different tactics aside from direct vocal training can help people reach the pitch they want. For example, scare tactics and screaming."
"Oh!" I cheered, "You want to scare her?!"
"Yes."
"Amazing, Tao-chan!"

He sighed heavily, "I'm asking your opinion on how I should go about scaring her. I want to start our session like usual, with her in the chair, and if she can't reach the note... then I'll activate the scare tactic."

"Well, lets see... something that would easily scare a girl like her..." I snapped my fingers, "I know! Dentist equipment!"
He rose a brow, "Seriously?"
"Of course! The sharp ended tools, the buzzing, the lights! It's perfect."
"Fine."

Two days later, Tao called me while I was in the bath, "It worked."
"Congratulations, Tao!"
