Chapter 24: It's Hard!

Sydney became astonished when she saw Ava looking at her sadly. Though he was very happy to finally get a chance to one group with Ava.

“Why are you sad?” ask him confusedly.

Ava looked at Sydney with a helpless face. “I'm just sad.”

“Why ?!” Sydney was panicking. He didn't do anything to Ava so why was Ava sad.

Ava took a long breath. “This song will be a difficult song.”

Sydney turned around and saw only the number two writing she had gotten before. “How do you know this song will be a difficult song ?”

“Because you are here.” replied Ava with a bitter smile.

Ava's answer left Sydney speechless and then realized Ava's speech was correct. “Ah. Right, we both are vocal.” Sydney calmed down after hearing his reply. “Then, it should be a song in the room instead of Perfectly. Chances are if not Butterflies, then Fly is suitable.”

“Why don't you think we'll get a Wild or Party song ?” ava asked as she lowered her body to sit on the floor.

“Because I'm not the one who fits in the sexy concept. If Party might be a fun song, but I don't think it suits you.” replied Sydney while telling her why.

“Then do you think I fit the concept of Butterflies song ?” Ava chuckled at the thought of the concept for herself.

Sydney looked at Ava's face and replied. “With your face alone it is definitely suitable.” the answer is relaxed.

Ava averted her gaze and smiled wryly while nodding small. Not the wrong answer. Most people think Ava might be a good fit for a pure, cute and pretty concept. But for him this concept is very tiring because it will require a lot of smiles.

“But I'm more hoping we get the song Fly.” Sydney said. It is rare to find a song by LuckyONe, in addition to the good song, the concept and choreography are also very interesting to Sydney.

“I don't want that song.” Reply Ava flatly.

“Why ? Isn't the song good?”

“Did you hear the beginning of that song earlier?” asked Ava while glancing at Sydney.

Sydney immediately realized Ava's intentions. The song Fly is very difficult and requires strong vocals to sing it. “But you said earlier, we will likely get a difficult song. As I recall only this song Fly is the hardest right ?”

Ava gave a small nod, “True, so I was very sad when you entered earlier.”

Sydney laughed and heard Ava complain. Ava's unabashed and very detached attitude made her very anxious.

As they were talking, the next trainee walked into the room with careful steps. This trainee was very surprised to see that there were two high ranking in the same room as him. Sydney was also very surprised to see trainees coming into the room.

“Zanna!” sydney shouted excitedly watching her friend come to the same room.

Zanna was also very enthusiastic and hugged Sydney, then the two jumped together while hugging.

Looking at the level of the two who were extremely excited, Ava could only let out a long sigh. She remembers enough with this Zanna, she was quite good at vocals and dancing. At least he can be enough Lead Vocal if in a group position.

“Let me introduce, this is Zanna, then this is Ava.” Sydney, who knew Zanna, introduced the two.

Ava just smiled and nodded while Zanna did the same.

“She's a bit shy, so no offense.” whispered Sydney to Zanna but her voice could still be heard by Sydney.

Ava could only shake her head looking at her second level which was starting to cool itself. Ava seemed out of place, she looked sad and limp like a plant that had not been watering for a long time.

“What's with him ?” zanna asked Sydney while pointing at Ava.

“He is just trying to accept the fact that most likely we will receive a difficult song.” Sydney replied with a laugh.

Ava stared at Sydney with a hard-to-believe expression. But he didn't fight back and let Sydney keep teasing him. Looks like he learned from Sophie to keep teasing her.

Zanna herself did not know Ava very well because according to rumors circulating among trainees now, Ava was a proud person. But seeing Sydney get close to even teasing Ava like this makes her wonder the truth of the rumor.

Ava seemed very relaxed and unaffected by others, besides, she did not seem to talk much. Maybe that makes him look arrogant.

The three did not wait long until the next trainee came and made the room even more excited. Ava would not want to say hello to those who came but after that she would sit at the very end and wait quietly.

This time the group would be filled with quite a lot of people, almost 12 people were in Ava's group. It seems like the staff did deliberately make it so that one group could train first before the elimination that would be held next week.

What was rather surprising to almost all the trainees in the room was a very pretty face or had strong vocals. Although they are ranked low but they have a solid talent to be a singer.

Ava doesn't really know anyone in her group right now except Sydney, Crystal and Yoal whom she previously knew, the rest don't memorize if they don't read her name.

Crystal will definitely stick to Ava because it is more comfortable and familiar since they were in the team before. Yoal sat next to Crystal and also Sydney which he felt more comfortable with as well.

When everyone was in the room, the staff allowed one of them to reveal what song they would perform in their next performance.

Sydney who is more widely known by everyone volunteered to open their title track. The title of the song they will bring is behind the writing of the number two attached next to the entrance. They only need to tear the number two in front to show the title behind it.

Everyone screamed in suspense and couldn't wait to see what their song title really was. To add to the tension, Sydney deliberately bide time to open the title of the song by playing around, but she herself is also very curious and also wants to immediately know what song title will be performed.

Finally, Sydney directly tore the number paper in front and the title of the song they had to bring was clearly plastered behind it. It is written in bold and also very large. Alongside the title, there is the name and genre of the song. FLY - LuckyONe - Classic Pop.

As soon as he saw the song he had created himself, he became somewhat regretful of already making the song difficult. In the end, he himself had to bring it.

Everyone was cheering and they even started kneeling in front of the title while thanking the fans who had given them what they wanted to bring.

The cameraman responded to the reactions of all the trainees carefully, among all the happy reactions only Ava looked sad. Later in the interview, Ava can only answer.

“It's a difficult song,” With a smile but his expression is obviously sad.

Sydney is obviously very happy to get a song made by LuckyONe considering there are friends who do not want the song. So he turned around and looked at Ava who could only sit on the floor resignedly.

“Clearned! This song is very good.” Sydney said as she patted Ava's shoulder trying to encourage her.

Ava could only nod but her expression was very resigned.

The excitement in the room does not last long because they have to determine who the center is and also the part they will bring. The staff handed them the paper and asked them to start sharing their parts so they could practice.

“Who wants to be the center ?” sidney began moderating everyone.

Ava suddenly retreated to try to hide and did not want to join the center. Some people raised their hands and ran for center. Because maybe this will be their last chance if they don't try it.

Sydney looked at those who wanted to be the center and saw Ava hiding and sitting quietly behind Crystal. “Ava you don't want to be a center ?” ask Sydney.

Ava immediately stiffened and shook her head strongly. “No,”

Sydney was a bit hesitant but after looking into the division paper in her hand she decided at least Ava should be the main vocal or lead vocal 1.

“Well, let's choose the center.” said Sydney started asking some people who want to be the center to try to do the style for the killing part in the song.

After all, two people are chosen to be the center while in two teams. Only then did they split the team in half and split their respective halves.

After all the parts were done, they started watching the existing choreographed videos to practice.

This time Ava is one team with Sydney, Crystal and also Yoal. The center selected on Ava's team is a gentle-faced female trainee named Chandie and there is one more girl with them, Iris.

They took up positions ready to practice but when they were about to start practicing, suddenly they became confused as to how to start doing choreography exercises this time around.

Crystal remembers Ava as a great dancer, so she hands over the tab containing the choreography video to Ava. “You directed.” said absolutely.

Sydney was also suddenly enlightened, she remembered Ava was a very great dancer, so she agreed. They group into one voice to allow Ava to guide them.

After looking at it once, Ava let out a long sigh. Koreo here he made it himself. Although not difficult but basically he made it with basic dance with a little of ballet dance so it is a bit difficult in terms of posture.

Ava turned around and started directing her teammates. “Stands upright, this choreography will be difficult to look beautiful if your posture is wrong.”

Ava revolves around her friends while justifying the posture of every one of her friends. “uphold her shoulders again. Preserve.”

“Then move sideways, Good, make this move so it looks beautiful. Don't forget to maintain your posture.” Ava kept making comments while teaching her to move.

The second team was also confused in starting their practice so in the end they followed Ava's comments and practice and they trained together.

Although slow but this way makes them remember clearly and how they should do the dance with a more beautiful look. After a few moves Ava turned on the music and let them try to move with the tempo of the music while looking at the glass.

This Ava practice method helps a lot so that in a short time they can memorize their choreography and position movements. Ava taught until the end of the Chorus section first so that they could learn it themselves while changing their position.

Ava herself returned to training with her own team while adjusting their formation somewhat accordingly.

They stopped practicing when lunch arrived. A new sense of tiredness was felt as they walked towards the cafeteria. The Koreo they learned this time did not require great exertion or great movement but required strong body control so their bodies would definitely be very stiff during the exercise. Now at automatic rest their bodies become limp. Even they become lazy to move the cutlery to eat.

Ava who was used to working with such intensity had no constraints at all. Moreover, after being here, he still went for a morning run every day even though he had become lazy a few weeks ago.

He ate calmly and slowly trying to equalize the tempo of his teammate's meal this time around. He did not want to return to the training room quickly. Although a bit too slow, but Ava can digest her food perfectly because of it.

When they returned to the training room, everyone became lazy to train because they were too tired and became sleepy after lunch. So everyone sat on the floor practicing singing the new song.

This time, Sydney handed Ava a vocal position unilaterally. Because he felt Ava had a voice that was suitable for and very solid to be a main vocal.

“Are you not a vocalist ? Why was it handed to me ?” ask Ava confused.

“Because you are perfect for this song, your voice is also very solid.” replied Sydney lightly with a smile.

“But I better take the rap part and play your vocals that do it.” Ava does not want to be a vocal, only she knows how her intentions when making the song.

Sydney shook her head. “No need I'm already in the lead vocal position 1, it's almost the same as main vocal, so it's better you hold the main vocal.”

“Sydney is right, I think here only you are solid enough to sing the main vocal.” Crystal also tried to persuade Ava who had previously rejected the position of playing vocal.

“True, just take that position Ava.” said Yoal approved Sydney settings. This song is very difficult, so it is better if people are solid ability to sing and be vocal. Although he is a vocalist but he must admit it is very difficult to sing it.

Chandie and Iris who are new to her team-mates can't be weird. In the previous team, Chandie would fight to get the position he wanted, but this time it was instead them who threw a very good position. He even became the center very easily. And Iris too.

Ava lost hope when her three friends threw this position at her. Seeing Chandie and Iris who were silent made Ava look at them while winking trying to ask for help so that she was released from the position.

Of course Sydney and the others saw Ava's trick right away, they immediately held Chandie and Iris, shaking their heads together.

“No, don't follow him Chandie. We have to hand this position to him. This is the best!” Sydney held Chandie's hand and looked at him seriously.

Cyrstal and Yoal also both nodded seriously. “True, if this position is held by others I think we will have trouble.”

Chandie and Iris looked at each other and glanced at Ava again who was still begging for her help. But looking at the other three people who were serious made them hesitate.

“Then I will follow your settings.” said Iris decided.

Chandie did not expect that Iris would relinquish the vocal position. “I will also follow your settings.”

Ava groaned sadly. He was determined not to make a difficult song in the future. If he was told to bring it himself would be annoying.

Sydney and the others could only laugh softly seeing Ava getting sadder. But this is for the good of their team.

“No papa Ava. We can train together.” said Sydney to make Ava try to encourage him.

Ava took a long breath. There was no point in him complaining now, everything had already happened. All he could do now was finish this performance well. It is also in his good name as a composer.

He sat up straight and calmer. Accept reality. Ava glanced at Sydney who was smiling happily and started training.

At the beginning of the song is the Ava part that does the opening. The song at the beginning is a very quiet part just part of the singer and regular classical music. Obviously the lack of singers will be heard immediately if it comes to miss in this section.

Ava warms up the sound first before starting the beginning of the song. Not many sentences at the beginning are just humming that requires technique.

“Oooh, aa-ah, aaa- yeah Ava closed her eyes and focused on the tone she remembered while recording the song.

The result is very beautiful, although only one sentence of humming managed to make those who heard it become goosebumps. Sydney who had to sing after Ava could only be silent, even though she asked Ava to be vocal because she believed, but she was still amazed to hear Ava's voice.

Ava who did not hear any reply became silent again and instead looked at Sydney in surprise. “You won't sing ?”

“Sorry I was a little stunned.” Sydney said then concentrated again. “Let's start.”

Ava could only obey again and start preparing to sing again. This time he became more relaxed and started directing his team to sing with a knock on his hand.

Because later when they sing in front of the coach they will not be able to use the song to test their beats. So Ava commands her friends to sing to fit the beat.

They managed to finish the song smoothly, but after that Sydney began to correct some things from her friends and began to give courses.

The second team was in the same room with them listening and eventually they became a group with Sydney and Ava giving a small singing course to them.

Then they began to practice choreographed songs this time while singing and adjusting their expressions. As Ava said, this song is difficult, only a few exercises, they are already exhausted.

Ava was also very tired, as she had to expend her ability to teach the others. His fatigue was much more exhausting than when teaching Boss to his teammates first.

Even so, they but practiced until dawn to complete one full choreography smoothly.

Ava went to the bathroom to wash her face and get some fresh air first. It is too exhausting to train and train on your own. Though when he made this song is already very difficult now have to do his own show. Really don't know what else to say.

When she came out of the bathroom she passed Vivian who happened to also go to the bathroom. As soon as she saw Ava, Vivian turned around again to call out to Ava. “Ava.”

Ava who stepped lazily, turned around and looked at Vivian with tired eyes. “Ya ?”

Vivian fell silent and instead looked at Ava's beautiful face. After looking at it for a while, he could only swallow back his words and say something else. "No I just want to say the spirit."

“Oh. Thank you then.”

Vivian smiled slightly and then turned to go into the bathroom.

Ava is still standing in her place confused to see the strangeness of this one trainee. As Ava remembers, this trainee once intercepted her but she doesn't really remember. He forgot about the matter quickly without knowing Vivian in the bathroom was feeling a crisis.

When the announcement of the song was made, he had hoped to be able to get a song that suits him. But he never expected that there was a song by LuckyONe among the existing songs. He regretted it, he should have asked to be put on the song. With the name of a great composer like LuckyONe it should be that his path to debut would be smoother.

But he even got a Wild song that is indeed with his charismatic and sexy image. He also likes this song but compared to the song owned by LuckyONe obviously nothing.

He was upset all day because he found two people who were at the top of the list to be one on the same song. Of course this will make the chances of winning smaller.

The incident of defeat in the dance position yesterday has made him very irritated now that another incident happened to make his anger worse. Although he now had to pretend to be good, but he still could not cover up his frustration and tried to find an outlet.

During the announcement of his elimination, he intended to contact his father through his manager for help. He needed to stir up the program a bit, if he could find scandalous materials to bring down those who had a chance of winning would be much better.

Now he can't do it, although the team and program staff can help him but it's too risky and even makes many people suspicious. All he could do now was train hard. He had already underestimated his abilities to the point of losing the previous mission.

Vivian took a few breaths and tried to suppress the annoyance so that it would not explode while she was in the presence of many people. He looked at his reflection in the mirror and raised his chin showing a superiorny demeanor.

“You won't lose Vivian. You were born a winner!” muttered Vivian to herself.
