Sage was confused by the fuss Tiana kicked up. She asked, “What do you mean?” She thought herdrunk incident had blown over.

Someone shared a video of you drumming at the bar last night. Everyone’s talking about you! They sayyou’re pretty and sassy!” Tiana, eager for Sage to see the news, urged, “Go watch it on your tablet!Now!”

Speechless, Sage turned on the tablet and quickly found the video of her drum performance going viralonline.

She tapped on the video, which was edited to show only the climax of her performance. The clip lastedfor around one minute.

In the clip, she spread her arms and drummed as she immersed herself in the music. From thisperspective, she did appear lovely and cool. In the comments, netizens showered her withcompliments.

“She’s so cool!”

“Dazzling!”

“I’m in love!”

Sage was glad that people liked her and her performance. Still, she knew not to take her fame tooseriously because online love was always short–lived. Instead, she regarded her accidental fame asnothing more than 15 minutes of fame.

“Too bad I didn’t get to watch it live!” Tiana sounded very disgruntled. “You little bitch! How could youperform without inviting me?”

Tiana was two years older than Sage, so they weren’t college mates. In fact, Tiana had only ever beento Sage’s campus to swoon overthe handsome freshmen.

Although she never spotted any hot guys, she found herself attracted to Sage, who was a cool. younglady back then. She asked Sage for her contact number, and that was how they became

friends.

Unfortunately, Sage stopped playing the drums after they met, and Tiana never had the chance toenjoy Sage’s sassy performance. Therefore, she excitedly called Sage when she saw the video online.

She remarked, “You’re still so good even after all these years! Would you consider performing at bars?I’ll show up daily to support you!”

Sage rolled her eyes and shattered her friend’s hopes. “You’re always busy with your husband andyour in–laws. Besides, you have a job. You won’t have the time to support me.”

Tiana choked on her anger. She vowed, “I’ll make time for you if you perform on stage!”

Sage knew that Tiana truly enjoyed her drum performance, so she tried coaxing Tiana into going with aplan that she had just thought of. “I played the drums last night because I was in the mood. I had somuch fun with Michael and his bandmates. When you’re free, let’s visit that bar. I’ll perform for you.”

“That sounds more like it!” Tiana snorted. “You’re hanging out with Michael a lot lately. Did he recordthe video for you?”

“What are you getting at?”

“Don’t

sing.”

Sage was rendered speechless. “Mrs. Tate, there’s no rule that the lead singer must sing at everyperformance. It wasn’t even a competition. He was allowed to let his bandmates take his place.Besides, I might be good–looking, but Michael’s level–headed. Would you fall for a married person ifyou were him?”

“Well, I like my husband, and he’s a married man!” Tiana joked.

Sage rolled her eyes and dropped the topic. She decided instead to ask Tiana for updates on Wilson.“Has that female schoolmate of Wilson reached out to him in the past few days? Any

news?”

In their past life, the said female schoolmate, Lana Gates, had been transferred to Wilson’s hospital inthe first week he returned from abroad. Moreover, she was a heart surgeon–just like Wilson. She wouldspend her breaks discussing work with Wilson, taking away his time.

“I don’t think so! He’s been very busy after coming home. I don’t have the time to ask him about it.”
