[Ariana's POV]
Today is the D-day
It is 6 o'clock in the morning, I barely slept last night. Call it jitters or whatever, either it'll make me or break me. I have been in this entertainment industry ever since I turned 18, so I know how it works. But I have never been to th other side of this industry which is the backbone; the management, I was always on camera and not the other way around.
I have been on call with my PR team since 2a.m, I'm still not used to all the attention or spotlight. But today I have to steel myself for Hybe and the staff who will look up to me for guidance and I can't afford to disappoint them or the fans of the members.
"Okay, Ariana you are good to go. Have some rest" Emily the PR team head suggested me.
Emily worked with me throughout my career as a model as well as a COO, she knows how much I try to keep my image clean and keep my past behind me. She doesn't know the whole truth and I like to keep it that way.
"I really can't, it's just so new and yet so familiar to me" I honestly replied to her
"I know Ariana, but you too know how well you'll do this. You have never disappointed us as a COO, if that's what you are scared of" she consoled me with giving me motivational thoughts
"God, have you considered being a therapist cause I'll love to be your client" I jokingly said with a yawn
"As much as I'll like to charge you a million per session. No I'm very much satisfied with my current position, can't have the lady boss around me for more than once in a month" she replied me with a chuckle
"Ouch, that hurts" I faked a pain in my chest.
"Anyways get some rest okay? Don't want to see your face with eye bags in the newspaper" she told me seriously
"Okay ma'am" I said with a fake salute and ended the call.
I made my way to the kitchen to have some coffee because no way in hell I'll be getting some sleep now, and for the eye bags; makeup exist.
"Can't sleep" a voice came and I jumped in shock
"God, Seri you scared the shit outta me. And why the hell you are awake" I asked and resumed to make myself a cup of coffee.
"Sorry and I got jet lag, you?" She asked while coming towards me and resting her head on my shoulder.
Seri is just a year younger than me, she and I shared a special bound ever since we started breathing. We nag at each other all the time but she has been there for me when I needed her and vice versa.
We barely meet now that we are grown ups and have our own lives to handle; she with her last year at Harvard University for a degree in Photography and filming."Oh, I am nervous honestly" I confessed while mindlessly stirring the coffee.
"Finish coffee and let's go for a run" she said and hugged me from behind.
"We need to be at the company by 9, Eri" I told her
"All can wait bub, I can't see you like this you know" she said and kept her hand on mine with which I was stirring earlier
"Let's go then" I replied with a tired smile and quickly finished my drink to get changed for a run.
