Chapter 474
The last five numbers of the countdown appeared on the screen.
Looking at the screen, the fans below the stage yelled out the numbers as they changed.
“Five! Four! Three! Two! One!”
The moment they counted down to one, five members of The Wheelers emerged from a raised stage platform.
The fans screamed passionately at the top of their lungs when they saw the five members. The concert had only begun, but some people’s voices were already hoarse from screaming.
On the stage, the five looked at the sea of lights bobbing up and down in the crowd, and complicated emotions rose from their chests. In order to reach today’s heights, they had gone through a difficult journey.
Their journey was not smooth-sailing, but they never regretted it. Nevertheless, they never thought one day they had to disband.
Usually, Mark had a cold demeanor, but at this moment, in this electrifying atmosphere, he couldn’t help his tears from falling.
He turned away to wipe his tears.
He didn’t want his fans to see him like that.
All of this was his choice and his choice only, so he had to bear with everything alone.
Once the fans noticed Mark in that state, tears also began to flow from their eyes.
Then, they started to chant, shouting Mark’s name repeatedly.
“Mark! Mark! Mark!” The chant, each louder than the first, moved the hearts of every person.
Eventually, Mark recomposed himself, thinking he shouldn’t act like that.
“Today, I thank everyone for coming to our concert. With all your support, we are never lonely in our journey. I thank you all for that. However, I never thought I would be the first one to leave. That’s right. Although I’ll miss all of you, life is full of uncertainties. When there is a start, there will be an ending. There will be meetings, and there will be partings. Still, I hope I can present an unforgettable concert to all of you tonight! I hope you’ll enjoy it, and I wish everyone well.”
Mark had never said so many things at one time.
In concerts, he was cold and distant.
However, he had said a lot today.
It meant that he was really reluctant to say goodbye, hence the change.
Sunny reached out and put an arm over Mark’s shoulder. The other three members walked over as well.
From start to finish, their feelings for each other never changed.
“Mark, even though we can’t make music with you in the future, you will always be together in our hearts, never to part.”
They were the best of friends.
Mark nodded.
“The Wheelers! The Wheelers! The Wheelers!”
As the fans below saw the wonderful friendship between the five, they screamed and shouted in excitement. Even if they were to lose their voice, they would never stop that night.
Moreover, they didn’t want to hold in their emotions.
“Now, I would like to introduce one of our members. She has always been one of The Wheelers. Although she had not had her debut with the rest of us, she had always been one of us.”
After Mark ended his introduction, Sophie appeared on the raised stage platform.
When the fans saw her, they were excited.
“Tanner?”
“That’s right. He’s Tanner!”
“He was awesome at the last concert!”
Those who were here today were The Wheelers’ stalwart fans, so they knew who Tanner was the moment he appeared.
Tanner was stunning at the drums.
Sophie got on stage and stood with the rest of the members.
“Finally, everyone from The Wheelers is here.” The corners of Mark’s lips curled upward, and this was the first time his fans saw him smile.
They didn’t know why Tanner didn’t debut with the rest.
Nevertheless, it was not important anymore. The most important thing was that he was present at this concert.
Moreover, it seemed that every member of The Wheelers looked happy. As long as the band members were happy, the fans were contented.
“Tanner, do you want to say anything to the fans?”
Sophie shook her head.
She didn’t have anything to say. She wanted to make music right away.
“Okay, enough with all the cheesy talk. We’ll give you what you’ve been waiting for all this while. Rock and roll, people! I hope everyone loves our performance!”
After all, the fans were here to listen to their performance, not listen to them being sentimental.
After the six members went to their respective spots, Sophie started her drumming, and it was that song—Crazy—where she was the composer and lyricist.
Sophie would always be the center of attention wherever she went.
Even if she was wearing an exquisite mask, the fans were already screaming in exhilaration at the skillful way she played the drums.
Their first song set the whole concert on fire.
The fans sang along to the song in the live performance.
Even though that wasn’t an easy song, the fans followed along and continuously waved their glow sticks to the rhythm.
The crowd screamed their hearts out.
They would not leave tonight.
Mark’s voice and the buzz of the rhythm were ever on key, and the rest of the band was immersed in their playing.
One song after the other, they did not stop.
The fans did not stop either.
At the concert, The Wheelers performed fifteen songs back to back without a moment’s rest.
The Wheelers had excellent stamina.
After all, they were men, so they had a lot of energy to keep going. Additionally, they had also practiced for long periods.
However, Tristan couldn’t help but worry about Sophie.
Sophie was a girl, and playing the drums required a lot of energy.
Since she had played for more than two hours, he was worried that her body couldn’t take it.
Unfortunately for Tristan, she was still on stage, so he couldn’t say anything.
Ysabelle, who was next to him, screamed excitedly like the other fans.
Her tears never stopped either.
This is his favorite band. This is also his favorite genre, Rock and Roll. Are they going to be disbanded like that?
Is there no other way?
Looking at how sad she was crying, Felix felt his heart ache too, and he handed a piece of tissue to her.
“All right, please don’t cry. We’re still in Jipsdale. It’s not like you’ll never see us anymore. Is there any need for you to cry like that?”
If she kept at it, her eyes would be red and puffy the next day.
Ysabelle took the tissue and wiped her tears.
“You’re not a fan of The Wheelers. You don’t understand how we feel.”
“It’s true I’m not their fan, but it pains me to see you in such a state. If you keep crying, how are you going to meet anyone tomorrow?”
“Why do you care? Can’t you leave me alone?”
Today, I want to yell, scream, and cry just like the rest of them.
This was the last memory of their adolescence.
It was a band they loved very much!
In the meantime, another rock song began, and Sophie’s body was drenched in sweat. She had never let herself go and had this much fun for a long time.
From the start, she joined the band because she loved it.
And now, she could stand here side-by-side with the five of them in a concert.
She was truly happy, which was why she had put in her all.
