I am the Entertainment Tycoon

While Ryoko was having an adventure in Sakura City, Theo was having a completely different day.

He woke up early as usual to do his morning routine.

After working out, he cooked breakfast and ate alone.

Aurora was still sleeping, she slept late while having fun with her friends.

So he was not expecting to see them so early.

But he still cooked breakfast for them to eat when they woke up.

A while later, Theo arrived in the recording studio.

He would start recording the second song of the album, and he knew already which one would be.

'The Scientist' from Coldplay!

The famous song was one of the hits in Theo's past life.

The song was written collaboratively by all the band members for their second album, A Rush of Blood to the Head. 

It is built around a piano ballad, with the lyrics to the song alluding to a man's powerlessness in the face of love. 

It begins with the main four-chord piano melody created by lead singer Coldplay's lead singer Chris Martin, transitioning to him singing the first verses. He is then joined by the rest of the band after the first chorus. In addition to the main piano melody, the music of the song is created by a string arrangement, harmony, and acoustic guitar, with its rhythm being slow tempo drums and bass guitar riffs. After the second chorus, Coldplay Guitarist Jonny Buckland plays an electric guitar riff.

The production of this song was much harder compared with 'Say You Won't Let Go'.

Theo had to record the sound of the piano, drums, acoustic guitar, and electric guitar.

Without forgetting the vocals.

Theo estimated that it would take more than two days to finish the production.

But he was not intimidated by the difficulty of the task.

He was pumped up instead.

Theo wanted to listen to the song in his new life, so he started recording the instruments with a focused mind.

He started by recording the piano play, as the only instrument that he had grandmaster proficiency with, Theo had an easy time recording the piano part.

While Theo was busy recording the second song of his album, another silver-haired person started to wake up in another part of the house.

Aurora blinked her eyelids as she woke up.

She was a little confused for a while.

Then she remembered that she was in her bed after sleeping late the night before.

Her friends were sleeping beside her bed on comfy mattresses that they asked Sylph.

The silver-haired girl got out of bed with care to not wake up the girls.

After a silent struggle, she managed to get out of the bedroom without waking up them.

Aurora looked at the time on her phone as she stepped down the stairs.

'Wow! It's already 9 am. Big brother must be in the studio.' She thought.

When she arrived on the ground floor, she saw the breakfast on the table.

She smiled when she saw the care that her brother had for her.

She ran toward the recording studio with enthusiasm.

Arriving there, she saw her brother inside the recording room playing the piano.

She stopped to try listening, but after waiting for a while she could not hear anything.

That was expected, after all the recording room was an isolated acoustic room to maximize the sound produced inside.

"Sylph, can you let me listen to what my brother is playing?" Aurora asked after thinking for a while.

Immediately after, the sound of the piano could be heard.

Aurora gave a sweet smile when she heard the sound of the piano.

She tried to identify the song that her brother was playing.

'Oh, that's the song that he played for me that day!' Aurora said inwardly with excitement.

She loved that song and she couldn't wait to listen to the final take.

Aurora stayed there listening to her brother with shining eyes.

When Theo left the recording room, he was greeted by the sight of Aurora smiling at him.

He was a little surprised but he smiled too, "Good morning, cupcake!"

"Good morning, big brother!" She greeted him back.

"Are you recording that song you played for me that day?" She asked with shining eyes.

"Yes, I just started today."Theo replied with a smile.

Aurora started asking her brother multiple questions, she was too curious about the process of producing a song.

Theo answered all of her questions patiently.

He did not want to leave her out of the fun.

And he also wanted to produce Aurora's album in the future, and for that to happen, she needed to know all the ins and outs of the process.

"...and that is how the final result is achieved." Theo finished his explanation.

Aurora had a focused face as she heard Theo's explanation.

She knew of her brother's ambition and she wanted to help him.

"Wait a minute. Weren't you working on another song yesterday?" Aurora asked with a confused face.

"Oh, I finished that song already." Theo replied with a calm voice.

Aurora was silent for a while but she exclaimed when the information sank in, "What? Already? What's the name of the song? Let me listen, big brother!"

Theo smiled as he saw her excited face.

"Its name is 'Say You Won't Let Go'." He said as he moved to play the song for her.

The song started playing and Aurora was in a trance as she listened to it.

She never heard something like it before.

It was so good and addicting to listen to.

She closed her eyes to feel the music as Theo's magnetic singing voice entered her ears.

Aurora's thoughts were empty.

And when the song ended, she was silent for a while afterward.

The lyrics were so powerful and her brother sang so well.

"Brother, this song is good!" Aurora exclaimed in excitement when she woke from her trance.

"The lyrics are so good, the melody is so addicting, everything fits in so seamlessly!" She said with shining eyes.

Aurora already could imagine this song becoming famous.

"I see that someone is studying the melody exercises I passed." Theo chuckled.

He did not take her compliments too seriously, he was just copying a singer from his past life.

He wished that James Arthur could have a blessed life in his last world.

"Well, thank you, I'm glad you liked it." He said with a calm smile.

"Of course! When I have some free time I start solving the musical exercises you passed me." Aurora replied with a sweet smile.

The siblings talked with enthusiasm about music for a while.

"Brother, my final exams of the first year will be in one month. If I pass I will get one month of vacation before the second year starts." She said.

"Oh really? You must study hard then. I presume that the exams in your new school are harder compared with other schools." Theo said with a thoughtful face.

"I was thinking I should stop working in the restaurant this month so I could study more." Aurora said with a low voice.

"Good idea, cupcake! I was going to suggest that, but I figured it should be your decision." Theo said with a loving smile.

He wanted Aurora to be free to do anything she wanted, but he also wanted her to be responsible.

And seeing her take the most responsible decision made him proud.

"Thank you, brother!" Aurora said with a sweet smile when she saw her proud face.

"I will wake up the girls to have breakfast then!" She said as she got out of the studio.

Theo smiled as he saw her walking out.

He turned his head to the work he had to do.

He would work on the recording until the time to go to the restaurant arrived.

Theo was a little nervous thinking about the night at the restaurant.

It would be the first time seeing Ayia after not seeing her for a few days.

What would happen when the two of them met again?
