Dining Room, Pedrarruna Manor.
After driving his car back home, Theo found Aurora watching TV in her bedroom. He figured that she had to be tired from the workout earlier. So he let her rest while he cooked lunch for both of them.
When he finished cooking and placed the dishes on the dining table, he asked Sylph to tell Aurora that lunch was ready.
A minute later, a silver-haired girl entered the dining room with slow steps. The toll on her body due to the intense workout was bigger than on Ayia's and Shizuka's bodies. After all, Ayia and Shizuka were black belt practitioners for years already. While she only started 6 months ago. So her physical prowess was lesser.
"Are you okay?" Theo worriedly asked.
He started regretting putting his baby sister through all that. But he never intended to hurt her, he just wanted to show her how the experienced practitioners trained.
"I'm okay. I'm just not used to such an intense workout. I don't think I will be able to move much for the rest of the day." Aurora replied with a defeated smile as she sat down by the dining table.
"Are you sure? Maybe I should move you to train with Sam, June, and Sayuri tomorrow." Theo said with a thoughtful face.
"No!" Aurora shouted in protest.
"You can barely move, Aurora." Theo said with a serious voice.
"But I don't progress as fast if I don't practice with Ayia and Shizuka." Aurora protested stubbornly.
When she practiced with the black belts Ayia and Shizuka, Aurora could feel her mastery of martial arts increasing much faster. That's why she was extremely reluctant to part with them.
Theo saw that Aurora would not yield, which was rare as she would usually obey his commands.
He was torn on what to do. He couldn't lower the training intensity of Ayia and Shizuka because of Aurora. Which meant that if Theo gave in, she would have to suffer from now on.
But Theo couldn't hurt his lovely little sister.
So, he tried to placate her as he said, "There are only two training sessions before our vacation. You can practice with Ayia and Shizuka on these two days. But when we come back from the Heart Islands, you will go through a complete set of medical exams. If your exam results come back okay, I will let you practice with Ayia and Shizuka. But if the results show anything amiss in your body due to the intensive training, you will be forbidden to practice with Ayia and Shizuka."
He's been wanting to put Aurora to do these medical exams for a while now. And this was a good excuse.
Due to their past difficult financial situation, both of them hadn't gone through medical exams since their parents died years ago.
With their poverty time, it was possible to acquire diseases.
His health was perfect because of the system. But he wasn't sure about Aurora's health. So, he wanted to see if everything was okay with her.
"Really? Thank you, big brother!" She exclaimed happily as she almost ran toward him to hug him, but her sore body stopped her.
"Don't celebrate too early. There are still the medical exams." Theo laughed wryly.
"I'm sure I'm in perfect health!" Aurora declared with confidence.
"Okay, so I won't have to worry then." He chuckled as he sat down and started serving some dishes to his plate.
The two of them started eating the delicious lunch that Theo cooked.
He had cooked dishes that would give the energy and nutrients necessary for Aurora's sore body.
"Oh, have you decided which song you're going to perform for the Studio GG Channel?" Aurora asked suddenly as she scooped a spoon of soup.
"I'm in doubt between two songs." Theo replied.
"Which ones?" She asked.
"The Scientist and Love Yourself." Theo said as he took a bite of a steamed bun.
"Hmm, The Scientist already has a music video. Why don't you play Love Yourself? This way the fans who like this song will be satisfied even if there is no music video of it." Aurora suggested.
"Oh, that's a great idea, Aurora! I will perform Love Yourself then." Theo declared with a satisfied smile.
"I will also go by your logic with the performance for the AVA Top Hits program. Maybe I should play 'bad guy'? After all, it's on second on the top charts." Theo commented.
"Yes, I already have seen some people online complaining there are no music videos for 'bad guy' when it's on second on the charts." Aurora commented thoughtfully.
That's right.
The positions of the three top songs of his album did not change since he reached the top. It has always been like this:
Perfect
bad guy
Save Your Tears
The positions of the other seven songs changed constantly between each other. But they never left the top 10.
"It's decided then. I can even produce a more elaborate performance to placate the fans." Theo thoughtfully said.
He brainstormed ideas to upgrade the performance.
He and Aurora shared ideas as they had their lunch, and when they finished, he had a good idea of what he was going to do.
But first, he had to record the performance for the Studio GG Channel.
This would be a simpler performance with the same settings as last night's performance.
Theo helped Aurora move to the sound studio, as she had difficulty moving.
When they arrived there, Aurora watched as Theo changed the lighting settings for the performance.
The performance from last night had warm lights to give a romantic and cozy feeling to everyone who watched.
But today's performance would have cold lights. After all, 'Love Yourself' was a breakup song.
When all the lighting settings were done, Theo climbed the stairs to dress as Moonlight.
Not long after, Aurora saw Moonlight entering the sound studio.
He was dressed in black jeans, black boots, and a black t-shirt with an image of the dark side of the moon at the front.
If his outfit from last night said that he was a man in search of love. Today's outfit told that he found love, but the love he found was not the one he was looking for.
"So handsome!" Aurora whistled in admiration.
Theo laughed and thanked her compliment.
"I will rehearse for a while. When I feel there are no problems. I will record the performance." Theo said as he gave Sylph the same instructions from last night.
Just like that Theo spent 2 hours in the sound studio between rehearsals and the performance recording.
But at the end of it, Theo and Aurora agreed that the performance video was perfect.
They couldn't wait to see the public reaction to it.
