Child of Destiny



...…

It did not take long for Shin to start having second thoughts about the decision of making a music club with the others.

He originally thought that they would not be required to have a concert and sing in front of thousands of people. But who would have thought that it was actually one of the activities that they had to do regularly?

Shin hated being at the center of attention, so he was only planning to have the group to do some small and lowkey performances as their main activities. But based on the rules that the academy had given for the music clubs, each club had to participate in different kinds of concerts that the school organizers were going to prepare, especially the charity concerts.

There was also the battle of the bands that the academy regularly had. Whenever there was a festival or other programs within the academy, the music and other entertainment clubs were required to perform.

And since their group had an idol as their member, particularly as one of their vocalists and lead singers, the academy would definitely ask them to perform regularly.

But what was done was done, he could no longer take back his words, especially when the others were already working on the paper works.

Naturally, the boys would naturally not take on that task. And since they had diligent and hardworking girls in their group, they left everything to them. Only Molton was the one who volunteer to do the odd jobs and other forms of errands for the group.

He even volunteered to be the secretary of the club since he was already used to doing those jobs because of his twin sister, who was always the president of the clubs that they had before.

And since that was the case, the group 'elected' Jillian to be the president of their club. After all, she was already used to having that position and playing that role.

The other girls might be willing to lend a hand in doing the other jobs and sharing some of the responsibilities, but they did not want to always organize the club meetings. They also did not want to participate in the joint meetings with the other clubs, so they were somewhat thankful for the twin to take that role.

After assigning everyone their respective roles, there was only a single thing that had to be done.

They had to think of a name for their club, which would also be the name of their band.historical

"Atomic!"

"Too crude."

"Fantastic Band!"

"Sounds lame."

"Ultra Atomic!"

"Bro, stop with the atomic already."

"The Romantic Band."

"Dude~! Seriously?"

"The Ultimate Swag!"

"Sigh~! Do you have anything better to do?"

"The Ultimate-…"

"Arthur, I think you have to shut up for the time being."

…

…

This was the interaction of the group as they heard the names that Arthur was giving them. The more they listen, the more frustrated they became. It felt like they were being tortured by Arthur as he continuously said those names.

Because of Arthur's continuous barrage of 'attacks', the others could not think properly. And in the end, Shin signaled Leonard to cover Arthur's mouth until they came up with a good name for the club.

But due to them hearing the names that Arthur had given them, the names that entered their minds started leaning toward the names that they just heard. Naturally, no one was going to voice it since they already learned their lessons.

Shin thought deeply as he swept his gaze at everyone. Then he was reminded of the time when they were in the academy square and their 'adventures' there.

After that, his eyes were suddenly attracted to the small notebook in Molton's hand as the guy continuously wrote something on it.

Then a certain word suddenly struck his mind as he subconsciously voiced it out. "A diary."

Hearing him saying something, the group suddenly stopped and turned in his direction. Even Arthur and Leonard, who were currently wrestling against each other, could not help but pause and looked at him.

But since he muttered those words too quietly, they could not properly hear what he just said despite their sharp senses. They continued to look at him as they waited for him to continue.

But even after waiting for a moment, they did not hear him say something again. Cloe had no choice but to ask and satisfy the curiosity of the others. "What did you say earlier? We did not hear it clearly."

Since Shin was too immersed in his thoughts, he did not notice what was happening around him. He only snapped out of his thoughts when Cloe finally asked him.

He raised his head and looked at her with a confused look before sweeping his gaze at the others. It was at that moment that he realized that all of them were currently looking at him with curious expressions on their faces.

"Ah! What is it?" he asked subconsciously, after seeing them looking at him like that.

The corner of everyone's mouth suddenly twitched when they heard that. Then the expression on their faces simultaneously chance, giving Shin a look at seemed to be saying – "What are you talking about? You are the one who is saying something earlier!" –

Shin did not immediately understand but he somewhat got the gist of it. He then quickly explained. "Ah! I've just thought of something."

Hearing that, Arthur could not take it anymore and yelled. "Hello! Of course, you have! That is why we are 'asking' you what it is."

Shin lightly scratched his cheek before replying. "I've just thought of a word, then thought of a name."

This time, everyone immediately became interested as they subconsciously moved closer. Arthur even had an excited look on his face, ready to ridicule and reject the name that Shin was going to suggest.

'This is payback!' he thought as he waited for his brother to continue.

Shin swept his gaze at them once again and saw the different looks that they were giving him. He started having second thoughts about the idea. He did not know whether he had to say it or not.

But after his internal struggle, he could only sigh helplessly. "I don't know if it is good, but I think it fits with our current situation."

"Stop with the build-up already. Just tell us what it is," urged Lorraine with an impatient look on her face.

"Yeah, tell us already so that we can laugh at you," seconded Arthur.

"We will be the judge," said Leonard seriously.

"I will not laugh. I promise," Cloe raised her right hand with full seriousness, but her eyes were telling him that she seemed to be excited to tease him.

Shin did not immediately tell them the name that he just thought of and started explaining where the idea came from. "I've thought of the world 'a day' because of the academy square and what we did there."

"Then I thought of 'diary' when I saw the notebook that Molton has," he added while pointing at Molton.

"So-…" he trailed his words for a couple of moments before finally saying the name that he had thought. "I think the name 'One Day Diary' sounds pretty good."

Arthur, who was about to make fun of Shin, could not help but swallow back his words while looking at Shin weirdly. He really wanted to say something, but he could not find anything wrong with Shin's words.

Leonard, despite his serious look earlier, was also planning to do the same. But after hearing the name that Shin had suggested, he was immediately lost for words.

Lorraine tried to open her mouth but immediately closed it too. She was the same as the two, but quickly shut her mouth because she felt the same as the two.

Jillian and Molton did make any comments. They just remained quiet while looking at Shin with surprised looks on their faces. They could not think of anything. They found the name that Shin had said was perfect.

It was the same for Alice. She was somewhat stunned at how the name sounded nice. And just like how Shin explained where the name came from, she also found it perfect. She could not help but be amazed.

"A dairy a day," muttered Cloe after hearing the name. She then raised her head and looked at Shin with bright eyes. "It is a good name. It sounds great. It is perfect!"

"Just like how we enjoyed the festive atmosphere in the academy square earlier, let's share our experience through a song!"

"Let's make a song as if we are writing our good experience on a dairy!" she added with an excited look on her face. "One Day Dairy!"

Shin was slightly surprised as he was expecting them to make fun of him. But after seeing their reaction – on how they liked the name that he suggested – he could not help but smile.

This was how the name 'One Day Dairy' became a club and a band.
