The concert continued brilliantly, and Diamond backstage was also preparing for the last song that she was supposed to be singing with the group.
However, something unexpected happened as she was in the middle of getting her makeup done.
Diamond saw the managers whispering something to themselves and the way they were looking at her, she had an inkling that they were talking about her.
Curious about whether it was good or bad, she heightened her hearing senses and started eavesdropping on their conversation.
"I am afraid that we need to share the bad news."
"But .... We already started preparing. Isn’t this a bit too ....." the man didn’t finish his words as he looked at Diamond with a troubled expression.
By just listening to a fraction of the conversation, Diamond could tell that the last performance might not be possible.
She didn’t know what to think about that, honestly.
She could only wait.
Thankfully, the wait didn’t take long as moments later the two managers came over to her wearing apologetic expressions on their faces.
The two men didn’t know how to start, and Diamond decided to let them out of their misery.
"Am I no longer performing?" she asked directly with ease and no anger written on her face.
The two men were dumbfounded upon hearing that. After all, they didn’t think that she would be able to guess what they wanted to talk to her about.
"This .... We are very sorry but the higher-ups decided that it’s risky to perform the song when you haven’t practiced as a group," the manager sincerely expressed his apology as he cited the concerns.
Diamond wasn’t that mad at the two or the higher-ups. It made sense that they could think like that. It was indeed risky for her to just join the boys and perform. What if something happens?
She was confident with her abilities, but that did not mean that she could collaborate well with the boys.
It was uncertain.
With that thought in mind, she smiled at the managers and nodded at them, saying, "I understand their worries. It’s nothing big. So don’t stress!" reassuring the managers.
She could tell that they didn’t want to offend her. That was why they took so much time deliberating on how to share the news with her.
When the managers heard that, they both heaved a sigh of relief before sharing another piece of news.
"Although you won’t be performing as a group, since the song with you and Z just debuted, the higher-ups were hoping that you could sing it again with him. That’s if you don’t mind!"
When she heard that, a mysterious smile appeared on her face. How could she not like that at all?
She really enjoyed singing that song so much, she didn’t mind singing it a bit more times.
Diamond agreed to their request, and the managers left to give feedback to the higher-ups.
While Diamond was talking to the managers, the comment section was on fire.
