Chapter 3: Chapter 3
Faris
It was a long trip to the owners house. We have been travelling for almost an hour and yet there still is another hour of driving left to be covered. I enjoy long drives but the time doesn't move fast when you are desperate to reach somewhere. The speakers were blasting and we were singing along to some of the new stuff we have created.
"I think this will be a hit," Tyler said while singing along to the new music.
"I hope so, we have worked really hard on this and there are few more verses that I have written. Once I am done with that, I want all of us to jam to it incase this does not work out," I said while focusing on the road. The travel doesn't seem to end. It's been an hour or so but already feels like I have been travelling for so long.
"You do write some dope shit Malik," Tyler said to me addressing my last name.
I watched him singing our songs and a smile spread on lips. He has been with me since day one. We go long back.
Tyler is your typical badboy, tall and handsome. Unlike me he has dark blue eyes and blonde hair. He is the reason of many heartbreaks on our campus. He likes to fuck around with no emotions attached. And to defend himself he always says that it's the girls fault involving with him even though they know what they are in for.
We both are poles apart, yet he is one of the few persons I look forward to when needed. I am not the fuck boy or play boy kinda person but I have had my fair share of fucks and one night stands. He didn't dated before because he is a bit too unemotional and careless to even start a relationship, though he tried but failed miserably and I didn't dated before because I didn't feel like dating and more focused on my music and career or maybe because I was stuck on someone that I didn't find anyone else to fill in on the spot.
Well that is topic for another day but I always do find time to think about her, where she is at the moment or what she must be doing now. It's been five years since I last saw her and yet her memories are fresh as if it were yesterday.
Loud honking from behind took me out of the trance that I was in. Even Tyler was looking at me, no staring at me as if I had lost my mind.
"Dude, I called for you twice," he asked not believing that I was daydreaming in the middle of the street. I shrugged of as if nothing and continued driving.
"You high or something," he asked as if I would really drive when high.
"Are you crazy, what is going on in your head?" I said blaming him. You know don't do that shit before driving.
"Well, may I know the reason you are lost in the middle of the street, even after loud honks from behind, or.. are you. thinking.. about.. her, he said questioning me and almost smirking at me with his I know it all smirk.
"Just shut up already, you know I hate you, like I really hate you," I said to Tyler trying to sound serious but ended up smiling at his antics.
"Is it her, the highschool one?" he asked really curious and with amazement laced tone, thinking that I have finally lost it.
"What? The fuck you are and I ain't telling you anything. Go fuck yourself," I said flipping him off.
He don't know the girl, but he sure have some guesses cause we were together since we were kids. So, yeah he might have an idea who she is but he don't know it for sure. At least I was smart to not do something silly for, cause I wouldn't won't to listen the end of it.
"We're here," I said stopping in front of a house, where the GPS system is showing.
"Let's do it Fer, for the group," he said eyes shining in excitement and anticipation. Only we know how bad we need a place for our band. There is a huge event lined up for us next and we can't let anything fuck with it.
"The place will be ours before we come out," I said giving a high five before going in meeting the owner of the place. This has to work, we have worked really hard to make a place for us with the audience and we need this place for making our music and finally giving the band it's own space.
The interior of the house was as good as it's exterior. We were in the living room waiting for the owner to come. I couldn't help but look around at the beautiful peace of art. It was a huge house but at the same time cozy and and giving warm and homey vibes.
A middle aged man came around, he was of average height and had a head full of hair, we were expecting some old hippie but he turned out to be different than what we had expected instead he was better and welcoming in conversation.
We discussed the prices and certain conditions and formalities regarding the property it's maintenance and other stuffs. Well to end it, we got the deal.
We finally have our own separate space for practice. We did it and by the end of the meeting it was hard to mask on our emotions and excitement. We were that happy, everything was finally falling into its piece and I could see this going.
