57 Impromptu Spotlight
The trio, regulars at their favorite lounge bar, settled into their usual booth. Their arrival, as always, turned heads, but they were accustomed to the attention.
Jada, musing about Maxwell’s upcoming concert, suggested, “We should definitely get tickets when he’s back.”
“Don’t worry, I’ve got the tickets covered,” Emina assured her.
Their attention turned to the band setting up. Jada pointed out the new lead singer, prompting Bonnie to explain that he had stepped up after the previous lead singer left.
Jada playfully suggested Emma try singing. “You know, with Maxwell being who he is, you might end up doing more than just a duet.”
Emma, surprised, laughed off the suggestion but ultimately declined. “No, Maxwell’s the star, not me. I’m happy outside the limelight.”
Jada nudged her to perform, reminding her of the old times when she occasionally sang with the band, much to the delight of the patrons.
Meanwhile, Bonnie noticed something amiss with the band members, sensing their impatience for any issues.
As the conversation continued, a connection formed between Emma and the lead singer. Motivated by the band’s excitement and the crowd’s anticipation, Emma decided to take the stage.
Handing the mic back to the regular lead singer, who resumed his place at the keyboard, Emma chose to sing Maxwell’s hits, familiar to the band.
As she began singing, the lounge bar came alive with the energy of Maxwell’s fame, his global stardom palpable through the music. Emma’s voice, flawlessly delivering Maxwell’s songs, captivated everyone, electrifying the atmosphere.
The bar owner, recognizing Emma’s voice, emerged from his office, understanding why the ambiance had suddenly intensified.
After two of Maxwell’s songs, Emma stepped down, humbly acknowledging her admiration for Maxwell and quickly gaining popularity among the patrons.
As the crowd eventually dispersed, Emma was about to relax when Harold, a talent scout, approached her.
“Hello, I’m Arnold. Your performance was remarkable. Have you considered a career in
entertainment? With your talent, you could rival Maxwell’s success,” he proposed, seeing potential in Emma’s impromptu performance.
