"And with that, it's a wrap! Woo!" Jennie excitedly pumped her fists up into the air.
"Thanks a lot Jennie. Couldn't have done it without you" Kyle, grateful for her indispensable efforts in elevating all his songs, said as he exited the recording room.
"No. Really. I genuinely enjoyed working with you because your instructions were so easy to follow" the lady smiled and said.
"Well, now that we're done, lets hurry on over to the airport. We have a flight to catch" Oliver returned his smartphone into his pocket, another video recording of Kyle's record session saved.
The agent planned to have the videos touched up by expert video editors in the field so Kyle could upload it onto his ViewTube account later down the line.
"Also Jennie, truly, we're grateful for your help. When Ricky recommended you, I didn't know what to expect but, I'm really glad he did"@@@@
Listening to his words, Jennie had a slight blush form on her cheeks as she happily smiled.
"Thank you Oliver. I'm actually just glad to be a part of it all" she said in response.
Slinging his bag onto his back, Kyle then gestured to all three and soon, they were all out of the record studio and staring at the busy midafternoon street before them.
It was the third day after leaving the hotel and the sapphire-eyed young man was currently stretching in relief, happy that he had recorded all his songs.
Now he could focus on college duties and the reality show for the next few months.
"Um... Kyle, if you don't mind, would you like to take a picture with me?" Jennie shyly asked the young man as they all made their way over to Oliver's Porsche.
Genuinely surprised by her request, the young man turned around to face her, his surprise still plastered on his face.
Although he had told himself that he would be exceptionally careful when it came to relating with women in general ever since the Haley incident, Jennie had been a total sweetheart throughout the short period of time he had gotten to know her.
As a result, Kyle couldn't help but willingly oblige with a bit of a bashful smile.
"Sure Jennie. I would love to"
The agent on the other hand, didn't particularly mind it as long they didn't take long.
Snapping a few pictures in a span of literal seconds, Kyle finally got into Ollie's car while waving over to the lady who had a fulfilled expression on her pretty features.
Within about an hour or so, the two men reached the airport, sorted out all the necessary things and soon, made their way onto the plane.
Currently on the aircraft and sitting side-by-side, Oliver and Kyle began to have a pretty important conversation.
"So, when do you think we should release the songs and videos?" the agent asked his ward.
Although he knew when exactly would be the best time to have Kyle release his songs, he still wanted his thoughts on the matter nevertheless.
Pursing his lips as he pondered to himself for a few seconds, Kyle then gave his thoughts.
"Let's go with a few days after I either win or lose in the show. As for the videos, let's release them over the span of a month after that"
"Ah, I see. That's a good choice" Oliver nodded his head in agreement.
That was what he had also been planning to do.
Essentially, what the idea was, was to use the moment when Kyle was either at his highest or currently at his lowest in the public's mind to further amplify the positive reception of his singles.
If he won the show, his popularity would soar to unprecedented heights, thereby ensuring his songs would probably be a hit.
If he did lose though, the same would also happen to a certain extent as people would be a bit sad that he lost, and would want to listen to all the songs he had previously sung before he was eliminated.
ViewTube may be a way to listen to his songs but people would much rather prefer to listen to the song alone without any sort of interference in the form of cheering crowds or background noises.
"So you aren't completely confident in your chances of winning?" Oliver suddenly questioned with an arched eyebrow.
"We should talk to him after class!" the lady ignored her friend and excitedly said.
"Again girl! Stop interrupting my scenic gazing!"
Kyle on the other hand, payed rapt attention to the lecture without even batting an eye to the gazes around him.
The reason why he had even been late, was because of a few things and documents he had to sort out at the administrative block regarding his leave of absence and the rest of his tuition fees which Oliver had paid off.
Unless, he'd have probably been the first to reach the lecture hall.
In about thirty-five minutes after he had stepped in though, the lecture continued on and eventually wrapped up.
Kyle calmly packed up his stuff and moved out of the hall without even bothering to wait for his course-mates to begin an interrogation session with him.
Making his way into the surprisingly crowded cafeteria, he wondered if most students usually skipped their morning meals considering he usually never did.
Today was just a rare occurrence due to him having to leave his hotel early.
Not really thinking too much about it though, he ordered his food and took a seat in his usual secluded spot, already expecting people to impede on his peaceful atmosphere.
And he was right, because in the next second just after that, two ladies quickly sat in front of his chair, staring at him like he was some sort of rare, exotic specimen you saw at the zoo.
The two girls, were of course, his course-mates who had been discussing about him.
"Hello Kyle. I'm Clara!"
"And I'm May!"
Both ladies enthusiastically introduced themselves, their energy a tad bit too much for Kyle.
However, just before the handsome young man could reply politely, a few more ladies immediately joined the bench on the opposite sides.
This action instantly garnered even more attention from the people in the cafeteria.
'Well, well, well... If it isn't the devil's little minions...' Kyle thought to himself as he watched Haley's girlfriends' directing warm smiles at him, his own expression casual and indifferent.
"I hope you don't mind us sitting by Kyle~..." Cassie said in a sultry tone.
'As a matter of fact, I do' he inwardly responded.
"Oh look at that, there's a piece of paper stuck on your hair" Betty leaned from across the bench to remove the 'small piece of paper', her ample bust and cleavage purposely in full view.
Instead of actually removing said 'paper', her hands danced across the length of Kyle's voluminous raven hair at first and then she gently traced it down, her hands landing across his high cheekbones all the way to his strong jawline.
'Sure. Just molest me as you please' he sarcastically commented, a scoff threatening to escape his lips.
His outward appearance though, was completely normal as all of this happened.
"Were we intruding on something?" Jennifer turned to Clara and May while 'politely' asking.
In response, both ladies quickly began to pack up their stuff and were just about to leave the bench when a familiar feminine voice cascaded over, the tone playful.
"Oh hey dreamboat! Took you long enough!"
Having a light smile tug on the corners of his lips, Kyle was grateful that one of his saviors had finally appeared.
