Chapter 71 71 - Suspicious look

    ??The song was written very quickly, but I didn''t want to send it to Selena right away.

    If I sent her such a good song just a few minutes after she told me the story I needed to do, it would look very strange.

    So I would leave it until tomorrow or the next day.

    "Noah, Dad asked if we wanted to go to a restaurant for lunch!" Ethan excitedly entered the room.

    Surprised, I nodded. Even though I liked cooking with my mom, it was great to have a day to rest and eat different food with a different flavor.

    "Yes, we will." I smiled back. "I''ll just take a shower then."

    But when I got up to take a shower, Ethan stopped me. "Olivia''s in the bathroom..."

    Hearing that, my stomach rumbled and I sat back down on the bed.

    "How long has she been in the bathroom?" I asked.

    "Five minutes..." He replied.

    Hearing that made me feel even more desperate and my stomach rumbled even more.

    I always showered before her when I got back from training, but now that I woke up a little later on the weekend, I remembered why the old Noah didn''t like to shower after Liv, because she took too long...

    Since she had just entered the bathroom and didn''t come out until she was completely dressed, I had an hour to spare until the bathroom was empty...

    "Hey Champ, do you want to learn a song I thought of for you to play?" I asked Ethan about an idea that had popped into my head.

    I was trying to think of a song to teach him to play on the ukulele, and I was debating between two songs, Over The Rainbow or Toxic.

    While Toxic was a very good song, the words BoyWithUke used in the lyrics were too difficult for Ethan, so I thought Over The Rainbow would be a better choice.

    "Really?!" Ethan asked excitedly. "Yeah, I want to learn!"Discover new chapters at novelhall.com

    Picking up his ukulele, I began to play the melody of Over The Rainbow.

    Since it was a simple song, the melody was also very simple. The biggest difficulty for Ethan would be the part where he had to sing the song, because while his talent for playing the ukulele was very high, I didn''t know about his singing talent.

    ????????????

    Somewhere over the rainbow...

    Way up high...

    And the dreams you dream...

    Once in a lullaby, oh...

    ????????????

    As I sang the beginning of the song, I saw Ethan smile.

    Not only were the lyrics simple, but they fit him very well, with things he knows and things he could have written himself.

    ????????????

    Turning my attention to Ethan, I began to help him with lyrics and how to improve his ukulele playing with my Teach skill, which increased his learning speed even more.

    [Teach Lv 26

    Effect: When teaching other people, as long as you know what you''re teaching and what you intend to teach, the person has a 26% greater chance of understanding what you''re explaining and increases the speed of learning that content by 26% during that learning session].

    Not only did the skill give me the experience of someone who has been teaching for four and a half years, or 54 months if you count each level of the skill, which already brought the quality of my teaching to the level of a professional instructor, but it also gave Ethan a very powerful learning buff that increased his learning speed by 26%.

    Now calculate that with his high talent for ukulele, the speed at which he improved was staggering.

    Even for Sing, who wasn''t as talented, the speed at which he learned was also very fast.

    While we were practicing, Olivia finally finished getting ready and I went to take my shower, leaving Ethan to practice longer.

    Since my shower was faster, I was ready in a few minutes.

    Ethan was quick too, so we went out for lunch at a Chinese restaurant that had just opened.

    The place was very nice, with nice decor, and the price wasn''t expensive either.

    As we ate and talked, I began to feel a strange sensation.

    It was as if something was watching me.

    When I looked around, I couldn''t see anything, but the strange feeling didn''t go away.

    Even when I talked to my family, I still felt that something strange was there, and the feeling didn''t go away...

    After a while my family also realized that something was wrong and came to ask me if everything was all right.

    "Everything is fine, I just have a strange feeling..." I said, trying to pretend that nothing was wrong.

    [+1 WIS]

    When I realized that my skill had also increased, I became even more alarmed.

    If I felt something was wrong and my skill increased by one level, it only showed that I was right.

    As my Wisdom gained another point, the feeling became clearer, as if a sixth sense within me was beeping stronger and stronger.

    What is going on here?'' I asked myself as I looked in a certain direction.

    To my surprise, when I looked in that direction, I saw a pair of eyes staring at me in shock before looking away to hide it.

    But confirming that there was indeed someone looking at me, I began to stare to understand who it was.

    As far as I could see, it was a girl who was also eating with her family.

    In her group were her, her younger sister who looked a bit familiar, her father and her mother.

    As I looked in that direction, Ethan noticed my gaze and saw the girl''s little sister staring at me.

    "Isabella!" He yelled as he waved his hand.

    Hearing Ethan''s call, the little girl looked around in confusion, but when she saw Ethan, she broke into a big smile and came running toward us.
