XXIV - Is It True? - XXIV

I was at the airport, my hair no longer long. Yup, you guessed it, I chopped that shit off. It's not like it won't grow back, I went back to my old hair cut, short and spikey just the way I like it. I held up the sign for the group flying in from San Fran. A group of 4 met me, I bowed in respect. My heart went out to them, the one member that I knew of was no longer with them. He had passed two years ago [ Fact - AC Lorenzo had passed away in 2017 ]. 

I motioned for them to follow, I lead them to the decked-out expedition. I took off towards our destination as soon as we reached the hotel, I handed the concierge my credit card and gave them their room keys. "Meet me in the dining hall, then we can discuss why I had brought you here for." I bowed again and left them standing there.

I found a table just for the 6 of us, Appa had already cleared out the dining hall of anyone who wasn't related to what I wanted to discuss. I hugged him as I chose to sit at the other end facing him. I ran my hand through my hair nervously, "Kai, calm down little one. Everything should be fine don't worry, did you even tell them what their purpose was? Or why they have  flown here?"

I shook my head no, "Really?! Now, this should be fun. I hope they will be understanding of your situation, let's hope they agree."

Soon the 4 men that I brought all came down, I got up and bowed again. "Kuyas, Please take a seat. This is YG, also my adopted father please if you will. I shall explain, why I had contacted all of you and your purpose of having you travel 16 hours away from your home. Just let me explain first then you may discuss amongst yourselves for a decision."

I motioned for the waiter, "Coffee, juice, and water, please. Also please whatever they wish to order, will be billed to me."

I heard a huff, "How old are you, little dude?"

I let out a giggle, I took off my mask. I saw jaws drop, I couldn't hold it in any longer I started laughing so hard I was practically crying. "Damn that never gets old."

I stood up, "Let me introduce myself, My name is Kai Lee, born and raised in Los Angeles California till I was 15. After I graduated at fifteen years old, I ran away from home. I didn't have a very good upbringing, but I stayed humble and kind. I ran away to Ulsan, South Korea. Where a kind family took me in and adopted me." I changed my voice to my girl tone, then back to my guy voice. "I was born different as you can see I am a female but I was blessed with this voice. It has helped me accomplish some of my dreams. At seventeen years old I auditioned for a show called UNDER NINETEEN, where I made some very special friends and found a relative I thought did not exist until he had asked about my mother. Even though it was hard keeping a secret about my gender, the trainees found out. It wasn't easy either, I was poisoned, they hid my belongings and invaded my personal space. But I'm not spiteful, I had my pride."

I took a minute and sipped my water, "It was when I revealed to all the staff and the other trainees, besides a few that did not accept me. Everyone else wanted me there, it was then when I was actually accepted for being myself, that I was happy. But soon it all ended and I later ended up with YG, I've come along away from being the prideful girl to being back to my humble self. I brought you here because I would like to remake your song IT MIGHT BE YOU!, not only for the purpose of bringing your beautiful music back but in honoring a member that you have lost. I know I might be young but I know what it feels to be in love and I wish that harmony for everyone who is willing to listen. So will you do me the honor, of doing that? If you reject the offer, no worries your welcome to stay for the remainder I've booked the hotel. Also, the song I've chosen is for a special someone, who loves me wholeheartedly."

I bowed and sat back down, "Well I was not expecting any of that! What do you think guys? Should we do it and help her out?" The one in the snapback had said.

"Leo, your seriously thinking about accepting it? We haven't even heard if she could sing or not? What if she can't what will we do then?" The one next to Leo said.

I looked at there faces, "Oh you want proof that I can sing? Oh, that's fine. Just give me a sec okay while I go check if I can use their equipment, answer me this. guy voice or girl's voice?" I stare at the one next to Leo, I think his name is Andrey.

I looked at YG, "Guy voice since you want to collab on the song It might be you." He had said smiling at me.

I went up to the hostess, I handed her a couple thousand won. She handed it back to me and asked for an autograph instead.

I sighed the back of her phone case using my silver permanent marker and I took a CD out my bag signing that as well. "LIMITED EDITION, THERE ARE ONLY 50 COPIES IN THE WORLD AND NOW YOU HAVE THE HONOR OF HAVING ONE. May I use the setup on stage?" I had had her, her name tag said, Aimee.

She got all shy, "No problem Kai, go ahead the boss won't get mad. Maybe if you invite her down and the staff, they can also enjoy this little concert you will be performing."

I nodded and gave her the go head, I got myself acquainted with the keys as I started playing a few notes here and there.

[ (Just pretend his hair is longer and he is a girl) ]

I looked over at Appa, he gave me a shocked look. "YAH! You have a piano version?" he yelled at me

I tossed him a finger heart as I started to sing the song, I had written this just after my birthday. I sang my heart out, thinking of oppa. A few stray tears flowing down my cheeks, I played the keys of the familiar song till the end. I played a few more keys as I changed up the song, this was the one I wrote before I sang Thank You in public.

I stood up for this one, I dabbed at the tears. As I played the song that hasn't even been released yet, I looked at YG, giving him the cue to record and send it to Oppa. It was a message to him, that he needed to really decide what he wants and it needed to be soon before its too late.

I bowed and put a smile on my face, reattaching my face mask. Everyone had dispersed, I heard the thank yous and love expressions from all of the staff. I walked onto the patio, "Kai you okay?" Appa says to me.

I slowly nodded a no, "I don't know, I feel like I'm missing something like my heart isn't complete. A part of me is missing and I don't like feeling like this, I feel so lonely." I tell him as I hold on a few seconds longer.

"Kai, I believe you turned them stupid, look inside." I giggled

"Alright, lets changed that even more. I have a rap song I could do now. Close the doors, it's just for them and if you want to record it so you can send this BIG BANG, JAY & SIK-K!" I had said looking at him a bit shy.

I had called Taeyang, "Do me a favor and go on youtube live and watch with boys and jay and sik-k. It's important. I don't care if you have beat the shit out of Jiyong just do it, you'll understand in a minute." I hung up and hopped on to our account.

I opened up my youtube channel going straight to live, "Enjoy, This person really is one of a kind."

[ sorry no video as of yet, just the lyrics ]

I synced my phone to my Spotify, I placed my mask back on as I opened up the song as I heard the familiar beat. freestyle it is then. The four at the table whipped their heads towards me, I wanted to laugh so loud. but I held it in.

"Kai, we've got 100k watching already. They are wishing you well and to keep up the good work." I nod my head at his comment.

I knew the lyrics coming out of my mouth were meant to come out the way they did. But it just happened, it was what I was feeling at that moment. All my thoughts, the song was over too quick. The next song played, I let it go I switched up my facial expression as everything became super serious.

I pushed stop before I went too far. I looked at Appa. "Turn it off, I'm done for now."

I watch him end it then post it, I looked at the watch count. "Wow, I've never had that many views or comments." I was shocked as fuck.

I walked back to the table, grabbing some juice and pouring me some. "Damn I wish I was 20 already, I need a real drink."

I looked at the four still sitting, "So have you guys discussed it, will you agree to the collab?" I took another sip of my juice, "Here's my card, don't worry I won't go far. I'm just going to walk around, then I'm going home. Take your time, I'm in no rush."

I left just humming the melody to the song I wish to collab too. I stopped when I heard "You must really love your boyfriend, for you to contact us and gather us here." I turned back.

"I.. I was I mess When I met G-Dragon Oppa, we were strangers, I'm a huge fan of the KINGS OF KPOP. The song Blue changed my life, growing up was super hard. But I stayed quiet and held all the anger in till I learned how to rap and express my emotions and heartfelt lyrics through what I produced, a few years after that I learned I had the knack for dancing. When I reached the age of sixteen, I learned how to sing. I met Oppa by chance because YG had asked him to see if it would be better if I were in a group or go solo. I'm going for my walk now, enjoy your stay, let me know yeah. It would be an honor working with you." I bowed again and walked out the side doors.

I took off my shoes, letting my feet sink into the warm sand. I felt so relaxed, my mind at ease. The ball was now in their court, its for them to decide now. I put the song on, I just was messing around i didn't even know that they had followed me out on the sand.

I sat there, leaning back on my elbows. my head tilted back and my eyes closed. "I think AC would be proud right now, that we would be able to make this song come back to life. That this song will be able to help you with your love. You got a deal, Kai, count all 4 of us in."

I jumped up and did a few back flips out of happiness. "Alright, so will you do me the honor of being on the show where oppa will be? You see he is suppose to appear on this show next week, but he has no idea that I will be there or that I am performing, not knowing that this song will be dedicated to him. He has no idea what I've been doing besides of me rapping from earlier."

I gave them a cheeky grin, "I promise, you will be compensated for doing this for me. All of your families will be flying in, compliments of YG entertainment. They will be there when we perform." I tell them, "Even AC's family has been notified and they have been invited as well free of charge." I tell them as I sit to go back to my previous position.

I stood up and stretched, I looked at the guys. We nodded in silence. We all shouted at once, "That's it we're adopting you, we might as well since your name is the same as our group name." Andrey tells me.

I lay back, "Really?! More brothers? Great, wait till the others hear about this!"

"O..Others You have more adopted brothers? How many, If we may ask?" I ask her.

I sit up, "In order:
Kieran: is my half brother who is older by 8 years.
N: is my brother by marriage
Kevin: is my adopted brother
Mikey: is my adopted brother
Yum yum: my under nineteen brother
Lullaby: my under nineteen brother
Jin-seok: my under nineteen brother
T.O.P: is my BIG BANG brother
Taeyang: is my BIG BANG brother
Daesung: is my BIG BANG brother
Jay Park: is my adopted brother
Sik-k: is my adopted brother. So twelve if i'm not mistaken." I look at them

I stand up, "Go ahead and go rest I know it was a sixteen-hour flight, enjoy your weekend. I'll call you the beginning of the week, also inside your room and in the dresser is allowance don't spend it all at once. Oh and your families have been given a spending allowances when they come so you don't have to save any for them. I wanted to make sure you guys were well taken care of here since I brought you here I have to make sure my guests are all good." I waved at them.

I look at the money in my hands, "Guys do you realize the amount she gave us? If we were to go to a bank this would come out to 5 g's in US dollars. We gotta do a good job for her. Are you guys listening?"

"Uh Leo, do you know that this girl is an American K-idol who just debuted a few months ago? I just looked her up, everything she told us is real. I thought she was bullshitting us, look its that show she was talking about. "UNDER NINETEEN - KAI - AUDITION CLICK HERE."

I watch as Andrey took out his iPad and uploaded the website, "Shit, I can't hear. Leo, sync your speaker to my iPad." We sat there without jaw dropped. If we didn't know she was a girl, I would most definitely pick Kai to debut. But damn all that pain and that song will forever be ingrained in my head, "You know I could never imagine what she had gone through, she had a tough life but look how far she has come. I'm so proud like she was my kid. Our wives would love her personality. Honestly, when she called us Kuya early, I almost freaked."
