That was what I wanted to hear!
“Are you sure about that? What happens if we
don’t win?”
I pushed her to keep talking in front of
everyone.
Brenda was furious.
She glared at me.
“If we don’t win, I’ll… I’ll leave the group! But
if we get first place, you leave!”
“Deal!”
I looked at Brenda with satisfaction, knowing
the show was about to begin.
The reporters in the room had caught it all.
The show’s live stream became more popular
because of our fight and immediately took
the top spot.
The show’s producers focused their attention
く
Soon we heard the host call our group’s
name.
It was time for us to go on stage.
Brenda was ready.
She gave me a smirk.
“Ashley, I’m gonna show you what real singing
sounds like!”
“After I win first place, you better quit the
group. Don’t steal our spotlight on stage!”
I laughed at her arrogant words.
I walked to the back of the stage without
expression, ready to go on!
Г
Soon, the show started!
The four of us went on stage.
The music started, and we began to dance.
Brenda suddenly stopped doing the same
moves.
She started singing in the middle of the fast-
paced song.
Everyone gasped!
Her voice sounded angelic and beautiful!
The judges and audience were mesmerized by
her voice and cheered.

The comments on the live stream went crazy
with praise.
“Oh my gosh! Brenda’s voice is so good! It’s
like she was kissed by an angel.”
“No wonder she said she’s a better singer
than Ashley. It’s true!”
“Ashley bullied Brenda because she was
jealous. Ashley sings so bad and probably
tried to ruin her.”
“I’m obsessed with Brenda from this moment
on! No one is allowed to hurt her.”
Brenda grinned, seeing all the praise.
She glanced at me and hit another high note,
taking the performance to the highest level!
Everyone in the audience stood up to applaud
her!
My other two teammates grinned and started
sucking up.
“Brenda, I didn’t know you could sing that
well. All those bad rehearsals must’ve been an
act!”
“Brenda, that was amazing! We’re on your
side from now on! Don’t forget about us when
you’re famous.”
Brenda laughed, then turned to look at me.
“What do you think, Ashley? Are you
impressed?”
