The next day.

First thing in the morning Sam went to his computer and turned it on, after a long minute to start he went on YouTube to check on his video. 'It can't have done millions of views yet but at least a few hundreds or thousands would be good' Sam thought as the more people saw it the more they'd share and speak about it. Finally he wrote his name on the search bar and saw his cover appear first on the page.

Sam Petit cover changes by xxxtentacion

Views count : 2

He couldn't believe it... after a few seconds of depression he started to understand, of course he had to share it and promote as if it stayed like this it will stay hidden into the depths of internet. He started to think of ways to promote it and started using the first method, Sam didn't have any social network so he just went on some random forums and registered very fast, after that he wrote under the pseudonym of 'blackface666'

"Hey guys I was randomly looking at some giraffes videos on YouTube when I fell on this guy called Sam Petit in my suggestions, he have only one video at the moment and it's a cover of xxxtentacion, it's actually very good but he don't have any views so I thought that I'll help him a bit."

He first wanted to use his name and directly promote his own video but people could think that he was just biased toward his own work when he started praising it so he thought of impersonating himself as an outsider. He left the same message on a few other websites and then went to take care of Em's breakfast. When he came back his count view now reached 500, it was a good start but definitely not enough. With the passing time these 500 views will become a thousand then ten thousand but this will take time, what he needed was an explosive rise.

[Master in need of help, the system may be able to help you. Please make a choice :

-Level 1 guitar skill book.

-Level 1 piano skill book.]

Sam thought about it and realized that there were a few things he could do using a guitar or a piano, after reflection he chose the guitar skill book. He could bring a guitar anywhere he went but it would be a bit more troublesome to carry his piano...

'What can I do with a guitar to help me promote my YouTube channel ...?'

That's when an idea came to his mind, he first went on internet to check an acoustic guitar's price. The prices ranged from 40€ to several thousand, what he wanted wasn't an insanely expensive guitar so he just bought one for 200€ and made it delivered the same day. His money was flying away slowly but he didn't have won anything yet, his bet was really dangerous.

A few hours later, he was done getting ready and was just waiting for his guitar to arrive. He and Em were seated on the couch watching a movie when he finally got delivered. The box contained a big sack and inside it was his guitar, it was a beige and made in wood. Em was sitting on the ground and looking at the guitar and the she looked at her brother and said


"Do you know how to play guitar ?"

Sam laughed

"Of course I know, don't you know I'm a genius ?"

She looked at him doubtfully

"Then show me, I don't believe you."

First Sam was a bit stressed because this was all his plan relied upon but when he thought about the informations that came from the skill book his confidence grew. He went near the guitar and started tuning up the guitar, when he was done he rang the cords and it gave of a melodious sound.

And then he started playing a little slow melody while humming...

"Well you only need the light when it's burning low.

Only miss the sun when it start to snow.

Only know your lover when you let her go..."

This was one of Sam's favorite songs, "Let Her Go" by passenger, Passenger's voice was very small and smooth but Sam's was a bit more deep and strong, Em was just looking at him with shining eyes her big brother was really talented in everything he did.

Now it was time to get going Sam took the guitar on his back and his camera and went toward a bustling area downtown.

When they arrived Sam sat on a bench put the guitar case in front of him and put a sign on it, on the sign was written 'Sam Petit, check my YouTube channel' he gave the camera to Em and told her to stand steadily in front of him. He took the guitar and started to sing the song he sang to Em earlier. Some people had already gathered when he started to put his material in place as in this place it was usual occurrence to see young artists make a little improvised show here. Then people started to arrive more and more.

"His voice is so good to sing love songs."

Said a teenage girl to her friends.

Another woman had been her since the start went toward Em and asked her

"Is he your daddy ? He sing really well!"

Sam didn't have time to shave these few days so he already had quite an impressive beard so he appeared older and she had mistaken him for Em's dad.

Em found it funny, she laughed and said

"He's not my daddy, he's my big bro."

After getting done with the first song Sam went on to sing another few songs, he was really enjoying himself and you could see it as he had a big smile on his lips even though he was sweating profusely after the fifth song.

Lots of people went to check and subscribe on his YouTube channel right on place after seeing the sign, this little promotional activity had made him win almost 50 subscribers and a few hundred views with the people sharing etc...

When Sam saw that Em was getting tired he thanked his audience and started to pack his stuff and was ready to leave when a guy's voice was heard from behind him

"Not bad, I didn't know you had another talent like singing and playing guitar."

Sam felt the voice was familiar so he turned around and looked coldly at Eric that was standing there with Sophia.

Em recognized Sophia and was very happy to see her, she called " Big sister Sophia ! It's been so long you didn't visit our house, did big brother did something to you ?"

Everybody felt awkward at that moment, even Eric was feeling it as it was Sophia that did something to Sam and not the other way.

Sam smiled at his little sister and said

"That's right I did something very bad to your big sister so don't put me in an embarrassing situation..."

Em nodded and went to hug Sophia, the later was still feeling awkward and she looked at Sam gratefully, Sam didn't even look at her and said to Eric

"What do you want ?"

Eric knew that this attitude was normal as he had bullied Sam for so long but in his head he thought 'You don't have to treat me like this right ? I would have never bullied you if you showed me your boxing skills right away, it was your fault for trying so hard to hide it.'

Now Eric was afraid of Sam so he didn't dare to say it out loud.

"I've heard you singing and I think you did great so I thought I could help you promote your YouTube channel, a friend of mine have a few million subscribers on YouTube, I can ask him to make you some promotion on his Instagram, what do you think ?"

Sam looked at him doubtfully, was this guy planning something ?

" I don't need your help."

Eric was expecting an answer like this, he checked if his girlfriend could hear him then he approached Sam and whispered

"Come on, I'm not planning anything. This is just a way to apologize to you, I knew all along that what I did was wrong but I was feeling so jealous of you because you had nothing but you dated a girl like Sophia and I knew all along she's dating me because of money. In exchange to the promotion how about you show me a technique or two to capture a girl's heart ?"

Sam felt this was actually pretty funny, this was definitely a scene you could see in movies between the protagonist and his not so handsome friend.

"Fine, anyway I'm doing this to get views... but I don't have any technique to teach you."

At this moment a few girls had been waiting from far away until now came toward Sam and one of them took the lead

"Your name is Sam ? I saw it on the sign, I was thinking maybe we could grab a drink some day, this is my number. Call me whenever you are free."

She said while seeming confident but a deep blush actually betrayed her nervousness.

Eric looked at Sam

"No technique huh ?"

Sam couldn't help but laugh, the timing was too much.
