Aiden was sitting next to a red-haired guy who was smiling to himself. He recognised him as Rake, a singer who was doing quite good these days.
He had not gotten a chance to meet him before.
They were sitting quite close in one of the corners, so a conversation couldn't help but start.
"Hello, I have heard your music before. It's quite good."
Rake said, looking at Aiden, who nodded.
"Thanks, I have heard yours too. I heard your latest single was in the top 10 of the Melody charts."
"Yeah, it was. It's quite an honour, to be honest. I'm trying to aim for the top spot in a couple of months with my next single that I'm working day and night on. Have you ever touched the Top 10 in Melody charts? You will understand my feelings better if you have."
"Yeah, one of my songs hit the top position once on the Global Top 50 singles."
"What?"
