What if Rona had taken up Seokhoo's offer to go to Jullliard at the start of season 3. What awaits Rona and Seokhoon in USA, and how would the story change for Penthouse?

Rona was silent through all this, she had been rather distressed over everything that had been occurring. She really thought that over time the negativity surrounding her would disappear, instead she found that every day, that hatred towards her had grown. Rona just couldn't quite understand what she did to cause such anger from this group of girls. Seokhoon could see just how much mental strain she was going through.
Stephanie and Yoo Jung many times wanted to defend Rona but Rona stopped them. She knew that even if they argue with that, there was no way they were going to change their mind. They seem to really believe that Rona had used Alex to get ahead in Juillard, and because she could not mention about the competition - she just had to keep quiet for now.
Her friends spent a lot of time with her, making sure Rona's mental state was not going to collapse. There was a moment at night where Rona couldn't take it anymore and started to cry. Seokhoon picked her up and wrapped her with the blanket on their bed. He did not say anything to her and just let her cry out all her frustration, sadness and anger as well. After a while, Seokhoon realised that Rona had cried herself to sleep. He arranged her and made sure he was hugging her, protecting her as best as he could.

The next day, Rona woke up with a slight headache, she saw Seokhoon still asleep. She didn't want to wake him so she laid back on bed and stared at Seokhoon's chiseled face. She took a good look at his handsome face, his nose, his jawline and those oh so addictive lips. Rona began to think back at everything that had happened, and the more she thought about the situation, the more anger she felt. She has done nothing to deserve this situation and if this evaluation was the only way to shut people up. She was going to try her darn hardest to do her best.
Rona didn't realise in her deep thinking that Seokhoon had actually stirred away. He saw Rona's expression change - first it was sad but then it changed into a determined look. Seokhoon at first thought he was going to have to encourage Rona but seeing her expression change. He knew he didn't need to do anything anymore. Rona was no longer the timid and naive girl who shy away from her enemies. If she could stand up to Seojin and Seokkyung, to be honest these bunch of girls were nothing. Rona remembers her words to Gabbie about becoming the Queen of Juilliard. Even though she didn't like putting herself out there, perhaps it was time to make her declaration.
Not only was she going to come out on top for this evaluation, she was going to do her best at the Elisabeth Competition. She knew winning would be out of the question but placing into the top 12 or even top 6 would be amazing already. With that Rona had a fire burning inside her, it was then that she realised Seokhoon was looking at her. At his smile, she knew that he knew what she was thinking of. You can beat them. That was all that Seokhoon said to her and Rona got out of bed, with a goal fixed in her head, she went about her day.
Note: So why not give you another chapter right? This one is a short one but next we are gonna see if Rona can finally be crowned the Queen of Juilliard (well Queen of the 1st years at least :P )
