Theo's Office, Pedrarruna Manor.
While the snowstorm raged outside the mansion, Theo heaved a sigh as he finished watching the last shot of the footage that Arthur sent him.
Theo smiled happily.
And he had a reason to be happy.
After inspecting the whole footage, Theo did not find errors in it.
Arthur and his crew were able to follow all the instructions that he gave to them through the script.
"This way I can start editing! And after I finish, 'The Scientist' music video will be ready!" Theo exclaimed with a brilliant smile.
As soon as he realized that, Theo sprang into motion.
He wanted to finish editing as soon as possible.
Theo's Director and Editing Skill that he got from the system started working immediately.
Strictly, this was the first time that he effectively edited something, but that was not a problem with him.
After the leveled up his skill several times, his editing skills were much better than many experts in the industry.
And with the leveling up of the skill, Theo earned several pieces of knowledge that editors learned after years of experience in the industry.
For example, Theo was editing a music video, which required a different type of editing when compared with other genres.
This is the phase when everything comes together.
Basically, Theo had to line up the audio track to the footage, starting with the 'master scene' or main shot.
Then he would add b-rolls, effects, and transitions until it's all to his liking.
Lastly, Theo would do the pacing and the shots of the music with the help of the visual indicators.
This would be the most fun part, Theo thought.
He would experiment until the audio and visuals felt coherent and achieved the desired effect.
It was a complicated process, but Theo had no problems doing it.
He was so concentrated on the task at hand that he didn't notice the time passing.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhile Theo was working on his music video, in another part of the house a silver-haired girl blinked her big purple eyes as she woke up.
The silver-haired girl was hugging a cute nine-tailed fox as she lay comfortably on her bed.
Aurora was confused as she situated herself.
It had been some time since she slept so much, so she did not know what was happening.
It was only sometime later that she remembered that it was Sunday, and her brother gave them the day off from the training.
Aurora smiled with her sleepy face.
She picked up her phone from the nightstand and looked at the time.
'11:07 am... Wow! I slept for more than 11 hours!' She thought in wonder.
She could not remember the last time that she slept so much.
'I guess I was really tired.' She said inwardly as she giggled.
Aurora sat at the border of her bed, after sleeping for so much, she hadn't an ounce of sleepiness.
She was instead famished, so she walked to her bathroom to brush her teeth.
Shortly after, Aurora walked out of her bedroom after brushing her teeth.
She was wearing cute pajamas as she walked downstairs.
"Where's my brother, Sylph?" She asked as she stepped down the stairs.
"Master Theo is in his office." Sylph's voice sounded throughout the stairs.
Aurora nodded and continued walking.
She already expected that he would be working.
Shortly after, Aurora arrived in the kitchen, and she noticed that the food was hot and ready for her to eat.
"Did my brother just make this food?" She asked as she looked at the delicious food in front of her.
"No, Master Theo made that when he woke up around 8 am. He just ordered me to heat the food when Master Aurora left her room." Sylph exclaimed in her lively voice.
Aurora felt a wave of warmth hitting her heart and melting it.
She could feel Theo's care and love just by this simple gesture.
She had a smile on her face as she sat down and ate breakfast.
After a while, Aurora finished eating and immediately headed toward where her brother was.
She found him in his office working on his computer with the headphones on.
Aurora tip-toed behind and observed what he was doing, but she could not understand it.
There were several things on the screen and it seemed as though her brother was editing something?
She was not sure.
When she saw that Theo was too focused on his work to notice her, she poked his shoulder.
Theo was caught in surprise as he felt someone poking him.
He turned his head and immediately saw Aurora's pretty face looking at him with a sweet smile.
Theo smiled and took off his headphones as he said, "Good morning, sleepyhead!"
"Good morning, Big Brother!" Aurora replied with a sweet voice.
"Did you sleep well?" He asked as he looked at her.
"Oh, yeah! I can't remember the last time I slept for such a long time! I feel refreshed and rested." She replied with a smile.
"I felt the same thing when I woke up." Theo laughed.
"Did you eat the breakfast I left for you?" He asked as he looked at her in search of signs of food.
"Yes, and it was delicious." Aurora smiled sweetly as she saw his caring face.
Her heart was enveloped with love as she looked at him.
"What are you doing, Big Brother?" She asked as she looked at the computer's screen.
"Oh, do you remember when I said that the crew I hired to shoot the music video would finish their work yesterday?" He asked.
"Hmm, I remember." She replied as she indeed recalled that her brother told her that some days ago.
"They indeed finished their work. Now I am editing the music video. After I finish it, the music video will be ready!" Theo exclaimed with an excited voice.
"Oh my god! Really? Will it be ready to be viewed after you finish, big brother?" Aurora asked with an equally excited voice.
"Yes, I think I can finish editing today. Then we can watch the video together." Theo replied with a brilliant smile.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe wanted Aurora to be the first viewer of his music video.
"I can't wait!" She exclaimed excitedly.
They talked about the video with excited voices until Aurora asked, " Can I study here? I promise I won't disturb you, Big Brother!"
Theo looked at her puppy eyes and his heart melted.
"Of course! You never bother me, Cupcake." He replied with a loving smile.
"Yay! I will be right back!" She shouted as she ran outside the office to get her studying materials.
Theo laughed heartily as he saw her behavior.
A while later, Aurora arrived in the office and took a seat by the side.
Theo stopped working for a while as he took off his headphones and said with a smile, "If you have any doubt, you can ask me."
Aurora nodded and replied with a sweet smile.
Like that, Theo spent the day working on the music video while Aurora studied for her final exams beside him.
Sometimes Aurora would ask something she doubted, and Theo would reply patiently and with a caring voice.
The siblings spent the day together.
Even when Theo cooked a soup to warm their bellies for lunch, they did not separate from each other.
After they finished eating lunch, they resumed what they were doing before.
Theo's office had floor-to-ceiling windows with a view of the backyard of the house.
It was the perfect place for them to work at.
They worked in the comfy temperature as they occasionally watched the snow falling on the crystalline lake and forest trees.
That night Theo did not have to go to the restaurant, so he was free to work on the music video for the entire day.
And that was what he did.
When the night fell, the two siblings were still in the office.
Suddenly, Theo smiled and exclaimed, "It's done!"
Aurora immediately turned her head and looked at him with shining eyes.
He looked at her with shining eyes too.
'The Scientist' Music Video was ready to debut for its first viewers!
