THE ROCK

SEARCH

       The next day I stuck a piece of paper on the bulletin board telling me that we were looking for new members. Some friends in class made fun of me and Roy "Wow, looking for new members to make jokes, okay?" Our classmates laughed mockingly at us. I, who was getting hot, finally left the class, followed by Roy. Then the three of us walked together in the music room on campus.

       "You guys make a circular huh?" Andi suddenly asked.

        "Yes, today's audition is looking for new members in the music room so we can get new members quickly." I answered.

        "No wonder my friends in my class say, but they are not interested in joining our band." Andi speaks again.

        "Is there a new member, huh..." Before I finished my conversation and started to open the door to the music room, I saw a man tuning his guitar and blending the strings with the sound of the guitar.

       "Wow, it's so lucky that there is one person here who is interested in auditioning." I said and started to pick up the guitar.

       Andi and Roy just looked at the man and then I said "Come on, show us your skills."

       The man was confused by our words and then he asked back "What's the matter, bro?"

       "Don't you want to audition, bro?" I replied.

       "Oh, man, I'm just tuning my guitar for an invitation at the lecturer's house here. I was told to see if the instrument was correct, because the good band wanted to perform, I'm just a cable winder." The boy replied and then suddenly a girl came in with a tomboy-looking style.

       "He said here looking for new members for the band, oh, this is the band that performed lipsync yesterday, right?" He spoke.

        I then turned and pulled him straight away "Yes...yes...here sis...we didn't think it was a technical error when the lights went out" I said.

Roy then said, "It's not like the audition circular has to be a boy, yes, all members of the band."

      I turned to Roy and turned away from the girl and then immediately said "Well, let's we changes the girl so she looks good like the boy."

     Suddenly a big blow hit my head, it felt like I had just been hit by a hammer, it turned out to be the girl who hit me and said "Then I'll go first if the audition is for boys, please write it down in the announcement, after all, I'm on a busy basketball team." He said as he left the music room and Andi said "Surely he won't come again if this is the story."

      Suddenly one of the lecturers and the senior and his friends entered the music room and then the senior said "Wow, someone else is playing at our basecamp." Followed by laughter from his friends.

 The lecturer also said to the man who had been tuning the guitar, "It's all right, sir, later you can take these tools to your house."

       The man nodded and then the lecturer spoke to us before leaving the music room with the cable winding man.

      "You guys leave the music room now, the good band wants to practice, don't just stand there."

     We also followed the lecturer and the man out the door of the music room and then the three of us peeked behind the window to see the band's performance from the senior.

      "Wow, it's really cool, like seeing a real artist." Roy was amazed.

        Si Andi also said "That's really cool how can we beat them."

      I was just silent watching the seniors' appearance. On the one hand, their appearance was indeed very good, but on the other hand, the desire to prove that we could be like them made the spirit of my extinguished fire rekindle because there was a match that started to scratch it.
