Chapter 1
Tinn finally reached the bar, he looked around to make sure that nobody could see him and entered. The small stage in a corner of the hall was empty, it was still pretty early, so it wasn't that unusual for bands and singers to wait for more customers to arrive. He walked to the counter and asked for a glass of coke. For a moment he thought about sending a message to Gun to tell him that he was there to listen to his music, but he quickly shook his head and rejected that idea, opting for a surprise.
He waited for a while, then the band prepared their instruments on the stage. Tinn was a little confused, wasn't Gun supposed to sing that night? He was sure he didn't get to the wrong address since that was the only bar near their university.
A nervous waiter could be seen going from table to table, for some unknown reason, he looked like he was doing his best to avoid eye contact with the people at the counter. The band started singing and most of the lights in the hall were turned off. The waiter didn't know that this strange behavior only made Tinn more curious. The med student walked to the waiter and asked:
"Excuse me, isn't Gun supposed to sing tonight?"
"Oh, Tinn! I didn't expect you here" Gun turned to him and replied with a bright smile on his face. Tinn was almost shocked, he kind of expected that waiter to be someone he knew and that didn't really like him, but why was Gun the one serving tables?"
"Yeah umm... I just wanted to surprise you. Are you going to sing after that band?"
"Actually not, the owner of the bar knows this band very well and they asked him if they could play here tonight as a favor. One of them usually works here as a waiter, so he asked me if I could do that instead." Gun responded with a rather nervous and embarrassed tone.
"I see... well, I guess I will have to come here again" Tinn added laughing, but his expression changed immediately after Gun shook his head. "Don't you want me around you while you sing?" Tinn asked confused.
"No! I mean, I love when you listen to me, I just meant that you already study so much, I don't want you to waste your time here... and also your money, this place is quite expensive, isn't it? I have to go now or the owner will kic- umm... he will be very upset, see you tomorrow"
"See you later, I can stay here until your shift is over"
"I don't think that is a good idea, I know you have several lectures tomorrow in the morning, you will be exhausted if you stay here until the end of the shift" Gun responded and rapidly walked away after a customer aggressively grabbed his attention.
Tinn wasn't exactly sure if Gun was really acting weirdly or if he was just mad that his surprise didn't go as planned. He finished drinking his coke and went back to his dorm. As he entered the shared room, he found a note on the table in the center of the room:
"I'm out with Por tonight, he wants me to taste his new recipe. – Tiw"
"Well, at least someone will have a nice date tonight" Tinn murmured.
That same night, Sound's phone rang because of a message. He rubbed his sleepy eyes and he read the message:
"Tinn came to the bar tonight. – Gun" "Shit. – Sound"
