Uchinaga Aeri, also known as Giselle, stared at the bulletin board in front of her. Her peach colored lips shivering in excitement. Was that really her best friends name on top of that list? Gieselle couldn't quite believe it. She licked her lips and fished her phone out of her pocket. 

"Giselle, are you coming?", a girl from her department called and the Japanese woman nodded. "Just a sec!" She quickly took a picture and send it into the group chat of her, Jaemin and Izumi. "This was important to me" Giselle giggled and ran after the girl who had called her.

On the bulletin board was a massive poster, white paper with bold black letters. On the back was a black glittery paper, making it stand out in all of the notes on the board. The poster said Final Lineup for this years Drama Class Musical: WICKED. And right under the title stood a name, that immediately had caught Giselle's attention.

Elphaba — Park-Miya Izumi.

Izumi hadn't seen the bulletin board yet. Neither had she checked the updates on her, Jaemin and Giselle's group chat. She was listening to music, riding her skateboard down the road to catch her train. She had overslept, after watching some musicals online last night.

Now she was on her way to school. Her first class was Music Theatre Combination Skills 1 and it was one of her most hated subjects. She needed 12.5 points to get enough credits to enter the second semester of Year 2 of this course. 

Their teacher for MTCS was a strict man who lived for musical theatre and had brought many students onto various stages of the world. Some of his students even managed to get into Julliard. 

Julliard.

The Julliard School in New York City was something, Izumi had only barely looked up to. It had always been a dream of her to get a Bachelor of Fine Arts of Musical Theatre; but taking it a notch higher and applying for Julliard? That was a dream hidden in the universe. Izumi knew she wasn't talented enough to apply for a school like that.

Also.. New York was way too far away for the halfie. How would she be able to live in New York and study Drama at the same time? She quickly shook her head and jumped off her skateboard, running up the hill that lead to the doors of her college.

She passed a few students, apologized for bumping into them before running into the entrance hall and taking a deep breath. "I'm still on time" she gasped running past the bulletin board—not glancing at it once. 

She ran up the stairs and into her classroom. Their teacher wasn't there yet so Izumi quickly went to sit down on a free chair and take out her supplies. Only then her head perked up. "Wait" she whispered and slapped her hand on her forehead.
