A Farewell After Being Reborn novel (Sage and Ian) novel Chapter 158

Sage flicked her hair coolly. "Ain't that right? Don't I have that rizz?"

Michael was tickled by her cheeky remarks. He nodded and praised her. "Gosh, you're so sassy and smart on stage. You can even hold a candle to a professional drummer."

"You have good taste!" Sage patted him on the arm. "Come! I'll buy you some drinks."

"Miss, what about us? We want drinks too!" Michael's bandmates crowded around her.

Feeling in her element, she generously waved them over. "Join us! I'll buy drinks for everyone!"

The group sat around Sage in a spacious booth. They ordered a load of snacks and drinks as they showered Sage with compliments.

"I can't believe that a tiny woman like you can drum so well!"

"Right? She's so cool when she plays with the drumsticks. Miss, why don't you join our band?" Kai suggested. "You can play the drums alongside Nail. I'm sure the audience will succumb to the charisma of you two!"

"Agreed! If you join us, you'll be more popular with the fans than Michael!"

Michael chimed in with a grin, "That goes without saying. I'm no match for her."

Sage felt invigorated by the youthful energy around her. Her last passionate drumming performance dated back to a freshman party, where she had been complimented by other freshmen.

A notable music instructor appreciated her talent and even offered to take her as a student. Alas, she turned down the offer as she worried that Ian might not like a drummer girl.

After college, a few of the students under that music instructor ended up launching successful music careers. She could have been one of them if only she hadn't turned down the opportunity.
