Soon, the concert venue was filled with people and all the lights went off at once. The next second, the lights were focused on the central stage of the concert venue.
The lift slowly rose from the middle of the stage, and KB Band's lead singer held his guitar while two bass players stood behind him. There was also a drummer sitting in front of his drum set on one side and a keyboardist at the back on another side. All five members of their band were standing together on that lift.
The cheers erupted from all over as soon as they appeared, reaching a climax throughout the entire concert venue. Everyone waved their glow sticks and shouted loudly, "KB! KB!"
The next second, a melodious song began to sound from the center stage which gradually lowered down all other sounds in that place. Fans started waving their glow sticks along with them while singing softly to match up with their lyrics.
Melissa's eyes became teary as she smiled and turned her head towards Martha who joined her by singing along, "We have always had dreams; we keep pursuing them."
This opening song was KB Band's first-ever performance when they just debuted into this industry. It was also their first dreamy composition that marked their journey towards success.
Later on during this show, almost everyone sitting in that audience sang along with them for every single song they performed until finally everyone had tears rolling down from their eyes.
KB Band fans knew deep inside it was an unspoken farewell where they used these past few years' songs to sing about how hard it has been for them but also how far they have come through thick and thin together.
After finishing up performing last song, the lead singer laughed while looking around at thousands of fans sitting there, "Thank you so much for coming here today to support us despite traveling such long distances."
As soon as he finished speaking those words out loud, fans started shouting even louder than before, "KB! KB! KB!"
The lead singer listened attentively to the voice that erupted from the audience before his eyes became red rimmed.
He took a deep breath before holding onto his microphone again, saying, "Although we have sung all our songs today during this concert, I still want to say some special words here tonight."
The fans in the audience heard his words and some of them began to cry uncontrollably.
Melissa's heart tightened and she unconsciously reached out to hold Martha's hand beside her.
Martha also held onto her hand with a slight force, her eyes turning red.
The atmosphere of sadness infected the lead singer, causing his eyes to turn red.
However, his smile was exceptionally bright.
"I deliberately left a few minutes for everyone today because I want everyone to witness my love," he said.
As soon as he spoke these words, the scene erupted into chaos. Fans stared in shock, clearly not expecting their favorite band's lead singer to confess his love on stage during a concert.
Even Melissa who had been a fan of KB for years couldn't believe what she was seeing on stage right now.
After a while, Melissa came back to reality and looked at Martha sitting next to her with surprise written all over her face. "Martha, he already has someone he likes?"
Martha nodded blankly while looking towards the direction of the stage with an expression full of shock in her eyes.
Meanwhile, two men sitting on either side of Melissa and Martha secretly breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this news. It was good that there was someone else whom he liked; they feared that if it wasn't so, then their wives would be completely smitten by him later on!
Following this announcement from the lead singer came another round of nervousness but deep affection could be heard in his voice as well, "I've known this girl for quite some time now but back then I was just an ordinary person."
"Afterwards we made an agreement, within three years, I would become famous and confess my love for her. If I failed, it meant I couldn't make her lead a happy life, so I would just give up on her."
"Luckily, I succeeded! Our KB Band became famous both domestically and internationally!" The lead singer exclaimed excitedly, raising his voice by one octave higher
Then he looked around all the fans, showing a bright smile. "Today here at my tour concert venue - my dearest fans - please bear witness my love story!"
Upon hearing these words from him, all his fans raised up high glow sticks which they held tightly in their hands, swaying them around in the hope of boosting their idol's confidence.
They cheered to welcome their idol's girlfriend and showed their support.
Just then, the lights on stage suddenly were turned off and a white light shone down on the stage. In the white light stood a girl wearing a white dress with hair obediently draped over her shoulders. She stood quietly under the spotlight with a peaceful smile on her face.
Her bright eyes and teeth, delicate eyebrows, slender waist made her look like an angel fallen into this world.
When the lead singer saw this scene, he was clearly stunned for a moment before quickly regaining his composure and looking at her lovingly. "You look beautiful today," he said in his magnetic voice that left many fans intoxicated.
They stared intently at the center of the concert stage while unconsciously imagining what would happen next.
Melissa turned excitedly to her friend sitting beside her and asked, "Do you think he'll propose right now?"
