As the final school bell rang out, signaling the end of another bustling day, Foze explained to Inn that his mother needed him home a bit earlier today. Thus, they decided to postpone their visit to the Judo team room. Instead, Foze suggested a detour to his own home, an offer to which Inn agreed without hesitation. Foze, a homebody by nature, had spent his entire life in this charming town cradled by the sea.

Upon arrival, they were greeted by Foze's mother, a kind-faced woman with a gentle smile that spoke of warm welcomes. Her hair was tucked neatly in a bun, her eyes twinkling with a warm maternal glow that was both comforting and inviting.

"Mom, this is Inn, my friend from school," Foze introduced Inn, his voice tinted with the slightest bit of nervousness.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHGj4Td7r9g
"Hello, Auntie," Inn greeted her respectfully, offering a polite Wai.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeiabJtWRrt
She waved her hand dismissively, a smile gracing her lips, "You boys make yourselves at home."
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ncFUkSy1k
They ventured into Foze's room, a small haven that felt distinctively personal. Inn's eyes immediately fell on the pair of guitars neatly propped up against the wall. His curiosity piqued.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKw2MLkcstZ
"Do you play the guitar, Foze?" Inn asked, his eyes lingering on the beautiful instruments.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyS2EW9hh2x
"Just a bit," Foze replied, a shy smile tugging at the corners of his lips. Yet, as he picked up one of the guitars and started playing, his modesty fell away. His fingers danced across the strings, coaxing a beautiful melody that spoke of years of practice and dedication.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡccfcsyiBdB
"That's really great," Inn commented, genuinely impressed. A thought sprung to his mind, "Can you play this song?" He suggested a popular tune, hoping Foze was familiar with it.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdyOy3xgB2D
"Sure, I can."
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaOTGl7UWof
With those words, Foze began strumming the chords of the suggested song. As the music flowed, Inn began to sing along. His voice was deep and clear, filling the room with a captivating resonance that blended harmoniously with Foze's guitar. The song concluded with both boys sharing a moment of silent acknowledgment of their shared love for music.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0wm5Mj8q6
"You also sing very well, Inn,"
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWW8yn004aR
Foze complimented, mirroring Inn's earlier praise. Inn grinned widely, feeling a wave of delight washing over him.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ObDwJg8ns
"How about we record ourselves playing and singing, then post it on social media?" He suggested, his eyes sparkling with excitement.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9F6RRfr08J
Foze hesitated, unsure of the idea. Inn read his hesitation and reassured him, "Come on, just play as you usually do." Picking up his phone, he set it to record.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbc4WTODvfv
And so they did, under the fading evening light streaming in through the window. Inn's cheerful face and Foze's concentrated expression harmonizing as much as their music did, their guitar-strumming and song-filled room framed perfectly against the serene backdrop of the beach town neighborhood. The magic of music, friendship, and shared passions breathed life into their humble setting, creating a moment they would not forget anytime soon.

One fine afternoon, the rhythm of the music club's heartbeat throbbed through the air. With the club's auditions approaching, a blend of excited chatter and fragments of tunes filled the atmosphere, each note carrying the palpable anticipation of the hopeful students. Foze and Inn, seated among the buzzing crowd, were waiting with anticipation, their hearts thrumming in sync with the pulsating beats of the room.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDJBIIQ5vF
"Are you ready for this?" Inn asked, casting a glance at Foze.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoI53raGpoI
"As ready as I can be," Foze replied, clutching his guitar like a lifeline.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNz3nX1ONg
Their turn came, and as Foze plucked the first chord, all eyes turned to them. The melody weaved through the air with Inn's voice accompanying it, like a beautiful dance of harmony. Their performance ended amidst a hushed silence, soon broken by the senior members' appraisal,
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Zc2Q65qOs
"Impressive. We'll be in touch."
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfwOAJce5GY
As they exited the club, Inn's mind was churning. "Hey Foze, I was thinking we should visit the Judo practice room," he suggested. 387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEj960Ik2z
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJU1WKnlf02
Foze agreed, and they made their way to the gymnasium. As they chatted and laughed along the way, a sudden impact jostled them, bringing their mirth to an abrupt halt. It was the grumpy senior from their previous lunchtime match, a scowl as bitter as an unripe lime etched on his face.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlarTIZWwJ
"Watch where you're going!" the senior barked, recognition flaring in his eyes as they landed on Inn and Foze. "If it isn't the pretty basketball boy."
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDF0H0Z8E4h
"We're sorry," Inn quickly apologized, attempting to guide Foze away from the potential conflict. But the quartet of seniors encircled them, their intentions apparent.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFDoZfkjSX
"Hold it, where do you think you're going?" One of them sneered, blocking their path. Inn's patience was wearing thin.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ91GUiaEssp
"What are you doing? Leave us alone. It was just an accident."
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoeIUOhcd8K
Their taunts continued, growing louder and more malicious. Just as the situation began to spiral, a large shadow fell across the scene, halting the senior's torment. It was P'Pathn, his muscular frame imposing and his gaze commanding.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL35QIV5i0T
"What's happening here?" Pathn's voice was level but held an icy undertone that made the senior's group waver.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdDL0Ku1BBR
"Back off, Pathn. These punks bumped into me, trying to start a fight," the senior tried to defend himself. Pathn's gaze locked onto Inn,
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzoaHG5aI1y
"Is this true?"
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVMW1FzGsP
"No, it wasn't intentional. We were just trying to pass by," Inn quickly explained. Pathn's steely gaze returned to the senior.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMMk3JsRhNd
"You heard them. Now, back off."
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Yhcn1DeiV
A moment of hesitation flickered across the senior's face, but his defiance quickly faltered under Pathn's unwavering stare. With a final huff, they slunk away, muttering disgruntled insults under their breath. A sigh of relief washed over Inn, and Foze flashed him an appreciative grin.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo40uNIsWtC
"Thanks, P'Pathn," Inn said, still feeling his heart race.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXF8QyvPY7Z
Pathn shrugged. "No problem. Just be careful. There are always people looking to start trouble."
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ud36GfSFX
Inn nodded, thankful for Pathn's help. Summoning his courage, he confessed,
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZaUwG5yPBi
"Actually, I came to see you, P'Pathn." Pathn looked at him surprised. "P'Nok told me where to find you."
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpcWwuXx09m
Pathn nodded understandingly, "I see. I apologize for not being in touch. My classwork and Judo practice have kept me busy."
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnfcLtm5qaN
"It's okay, P'Pathn. I understand you're busy," Inn replied, appreciating Pathn's honesty.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BRG4FF3nC
Pathn offered a small smile, "I'll make sure to contact you sometime."
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAzISjRa5cj
The late afternoon sun cast a golden glow over their conversation, marking the end of another day filled with music, encounters, and growth for Inn and Foze.
