The lights were on in the front of the audience, looking up at them. Once upon a time, they were teammates standing together on the stage, but now they were on opposite sides.

It turns out that the world on stage and the world off stage are so far apart.

Ai Yin silently adjusted the equipment and took a deep breath.

But our voices will surely cross this distant world and reach the light.

The lights came on, Ai Yin gripped the microphone, and spoke the first sound.

"We are MyGO.... The band MyGO!!!!!

Chapter 56 girlsbandcry

Even with everything at hand, a lamp cannot measure the difference between "ordinary" and "taken for granted".

She thought to herself that the reason must be that she hadn't become human yet.

"Lamp, why don't you want to play with your friends? You always play with stones by yourself."

It's not that I don't want to hang out with my friends.

"Teacher, waaaaah, the light gave me so many bugs! I don't want them!"

Rather, it seems that I've become somewhat detached from the world.

"I'm sorry, Deng didn't mean any harm... She just thinks round and chubby things are cute. Um... Thank you very much, teacher. I'll talk to Deng about it."

Blooming flowers, lush trees, a clear sky, a gentle breeze brushing against my cheek... I often feel that everything is alive, radiant and beautiful.

The tiny pebbles are like the stars in the universe, each shining with a different light.

The same goes for worms; if you touch them even slightly, they'll shrink back as if to say, "Don't touch me!" They're so cute.

But it seems that people don't think so.

“I know you like it, but if Mom receives a bunch of worm balls as a gift, she'll still hate it.”

"Um"

The world as I see it seems different from the world as others see it.

If only I could see their world through their eyes, perhaps then my distorted self could return to its normal place.

But I don't have that kind of superpower, Deng Xin thought.

The only thing we can do is follow the path others have taken.

I entered junior high school and made new friends, but something still seems off.

"Did you watch the show? Yesterday's episode was hilarious."

"...I find it a little scary."

"Huh? Scary?"

I feel like a sheep that has blended into the crowd. Even if I try to stand up and make human sounds, I am still not human.

Even though I have friends, I still feel lonely. The colorful world hasn't changed, but it seems to be getting more and more distant to me.

I can't find my place.

Where should I stand with my left foot, and where should I stand with my right foot? The older I get, the more confused and bewildered I feel.

Want to be human.

Same as everyone else.

"Hey Deng, do you want to form a band with me?" Xiangzi then extended an invitation.

Crychic—Every day in the band was fulfilling and dazzling, embraced gently by countless rays of light. The already vibrant world became even more radiant and moving because of everyone's presence.

"I feel like I've become human again," thought the lamp.

Even if it's just an illusion, if it can continue indefinitely, I'm sure I can become human.

"I... am leaving Crychic."

Until Crychic crashed.

The rain washed away all the colors, leaving only a gray haze.

"I still couldn't become human," the lamp thought.

A feeling of weightlessness spread throughout my body, and when I blinked again, everything in front of me lost its color.

Until that touch of pink appeared.

Unlike me, Ai Yin shines brightly;

Unlike me, Aine is good at everything she does and can get along well with everyone;

Her appearance also brought back the original colors—the colors of Lixi, the colors of Sushi... The tiny happiness composed of these four colors was extremely warm.

Wanting to grasp it, yet unable to touch it.

Because their radiance is simply too dazzling.

The drumbeats pave a solid path, the bass and guitar melodies race across it, and distinctive vocals echo throughout. Ai Yin and her band are now performing songs never before heard on stage.

Even though I've never heard of it, it inexplicably evokes a sense of nostalgia, piercing my heart.

The lamp looked up at the four figures on the stage.

What would it feel like to stand on the stage with them?

This is a feeling that is both familiar and strange.

The heat from the lights was stronger than I remembered. Standing in front, Aine couldn't turn her head to see her teammates as easily as before, and the distance between her and the audience was also closer than before.

But the rushing melody constantly tells us that they are right behind us.

This is what it feels like to be the lead singer. Has the lead singer always been in this state?

The initial tension vanished the moment I stepped onto the stage and began to play; all distracting thoughts were easily erased, leaving only my unwavering belief.

Listen to our voice!

Ai Yin strummed her guitar, her voice growing even louder: "Living with tender, fragile hearts—we are easily hurt creatures..."

"Me too," Aine thought. "If no one supported me, I wouldn't have been able to get here."

Because they are easily injured creatures.

Even if we lose our way, I want to move forward with you.

That's why I hope we can all be by each other's side.

"May I?"

The emotionally charged singing touched my heart, and the lamp slightly opened its eyes.

Even if I lose my way, I still want to move forward with you...?

These words sound so familiar; it's like I've heard them somewhere before, and at some point.

With a "crack," countless fragments exploded out, transforming into numerous images that flashed before our eyes.

Along with it came a voice echoing in my heart.

The messy lines stretched across the paper, the pen tip outlining the shapes.

Moving forward. There was no running away.

“Aine, you keep moving forward... Even when you encounter a dead end, you still look for other ways out and try to keep moving forward.”

A way out? Escaping is fine too—the winding lines flow downwards, cutting through the heart's voice.

"You've shown me that even if we keep moving forward... it won't end..."

The aquarium's soft light illuminated their figures.

Even though it was difficult to express and convey all her feelings, Toki still tried her best to tell Aine her true feelings.

Me too....

Even if you lose your way, you still want to move forward.

With you.

The lines freeze on the image of "lost," and silence follows.

Aine put down the paper covered with messy lines and then spoke.

"Then, shall we go together?"

Oh, I see.

"—Let's move forward together while we're lost."

Aine and I made a promise. The light remembered everything, whether it was their promise at the aquarium or the warmth of their hands clasped together.

The lyrics to this song were written by her for Ai Yin.

If only I could remember more, because even just these fragments of memory are enough to warm my heart and restore color to the world before my eyes—Aine is now singing the song she wrote for Aine.

The singing was so warm.

"Even if we can't see a way forward, we might as well run away."

"But I also want to run with you when we're lost."

"With you!" Ai Yin grabbed the microphone with both hands and sang with all her might.

As the last sound faded, the world returned to silence.

There was applause.

Lixi put down her drumsticks, exhaled, and looked at Aiyin. Su Shi did the same.

The singing just now was completely different from the level during training. Was it an extraordinary performance? It's amazing that he was able to surpass himself in a formal setting. Li Xi thought with satisfaction.

But it's not over yet; this is only the first song, and they still have to play the second one.

And what follows is the most crucial part.

Ai Yin took a deep breath and gripped the microphone tightly again.

“You once told me that you felt you hadn’t been able to become human, and there’s something I also want to tell you.”

"Huh?" The lamp was surprised.

What do you want to tell me?

Ai Yin put down her guitar, unzipped her jacket, and revealed the text on her T-shirt.

"Deserter"—that's what it says above.

She said earnestly, "I'm actually a vain person! In junior high, I wanted to be more popular, so I told others that I wanted to study in England, but! I ran away!"

"Less than a month later, I slunk back here from there!"

"I have no face to face my former classmates. I thought I was great, but I was completely wrong. I was also easily carried away and had terrible taste in names!"

So you knew all along. Su Shi and Li Xi thought to themselves.

Lena watched Aine keep revealing her embarrassing past, tiptoeing, looking forward to the start of the next performance.

"And then there's this guy who keeps clinging to his former bandmates, just so he can go back to the past. After failing, he keeps crying and crying nonstop! He's so awkward, but he loves his band more than anyone else!"

Su Shi's T-shirt had the word "despicable" written on it.

Su Shi sighed softly, saying nothing more. Although she was very unhappy, it was the truth, and she agreed with Aine's decision.

I'm still very unhappy.

"There was another person who always felt inferior to others and often put pressure on them. Even though he cared a lot about the band, he could never say anything nice. Like me, he chose to escape and changed schools!"

Lixi, whose T-shirt read "Inferiority Complex," looked away.

Even though she volunteered to embarrass herself along with Aine and the others, she still had mixed feelings about showing her flaws to everyone.

But you only need to force yourself to do it once.

"And then there's the one who's purely cat-like! No matter what he does, he does it his own way and is completely uncontrollable!"

Lena's T-shirt had "cat" written on it. She was probably the cutest among them.
