Se-ri knew it was going to be a difficult day and she had to keep her emotions in check. She met Hans for breakfast that morning after learning that Jeong hyeok was engaged. They went over the events for the day, the details of the music competition and concert the next day.

"I am looking forward to seeing Jeong hyeok perform, I have seen videos of him and he is amazing. It is going to be a very good concert."

"How were you able to have him come to perform?" Se-ri asked.

"I saw his videos and started researching on how to get him to come here. It is not easy for North Koreans to travel. It is good that his parents and fiancée were also able to come."

"Yes, it is difficult for them to travel. I am looking forward to the concert and hearing the students perform during the day. We will be announcing the winner of the scholarship before the concert and the winner will also perform. We should have a full house for the concert, I understand that we opened it to the public." She replied.

"We are sold out, we had a very good response." Hans said with a smile, he was proud of the work they did.

She did not know how she was going to keep it together, but keep it together she had to and she had no choice. She did not want to cause trouble for him and his family. The rest of the day was spent spending time with the students and their teachers and listening to them practice. She did not see him or his family that day and for that she was grateful.

That evening alone in her suite, she was dazed. It was a long day, the best part was listening to the students play, it kept her going. She did not want to think about tomorrow, she focused on the now. She did not want to go out for dinner so she ordered room service. She had no appetite but she knew that Jeong hyeok would worry about her not eating, so she ate as much as she could, which was not much.

You did good today, Yoon Se-ri. You will do good tomorrow. What would it be like seeing Jeong hyeok play? Will I be able to talk to him about why he got engaged, why did she come, why did his parents come? Questions, questions. Time to take a shower and get ready for bed, tomorrow is another day, she thought.
