Shannon Williams: GFriend's British Pixie

A Faithful Audition

February 2014

Shannon and Eunbi managed to stay for the night. Thankfully the parents were nice and cooked them a wonderful dinner of Bibimbap, something Shannon grew to love. The parents asked questions about who she was, where she came from, and how she got here. Of course, Eunbi was surprised hearing she appeared live all these years ago and her collaboration with T-ara.

Eunbi felt teary when she went into the detail the abuse and bullying she went through. Now she understood why Shannon is so quiet. The poor girl faced one challenge after another. It's an honest miracle she managed to escape. She can't fathom being put in that situation and seeing without anyone else to take care of her. There was a sense of urgency she felt. She had to get this girl into her agency. It'll be guarantee she'll be safe and she can take of her.

"Why don't you audition for my agency? You tried most of the big agencies, you can give mine's a chance." Eunbi suggested an idea.

"Eunbi-ah let the girl decide on her own. You're bothering her enough with your questions. It's obvious she needs some rest. You can discuss this tomorrow morning." Eunbi's mother urgers her as Shannon decides to take to wash the stress away.

"Should I really do it? She seemed like a good person. To accept this offer on a silver platter feels wrong... I don't know if should do it." Shannon has doubts the audition will do well. If the biggest agencies wouldn't her, then would the smaller ones would? Information about Source is very obscure aside from a few solo artists. It doesn't seem like they have a group in the market. This would be a waste of time.

But then she remembers the kindness Eunbi offered to let her stay here. It would rude of her not to accept her offer. The least she could is try?

"This bed is so comfy!" Shannon plopped down on Eunbi's bed already dressed in pajamas Eunbi lended her

"I know right? Whenever I'm feeling stressed I just jump and vent my anger." Eunbi laughs with a carefree laugh. She then throw a pillow to Shannon's face.

"IT'S A PILLOW FIGHT!!" Eunbi threw another pillow at her face.

"YOU WANT TO PLAY THAT GAME AO BE IT!" Shannon grabbed a pillow of hers and thew at Eunbi's causing her to fall on her bed. The two were too busy giggling they didn't see Eunbi's mother smiling.

The next day Eunbi took Shannon to her agency. Shannon took a look at the building. Compared to MBK it was relatively small.

"Are you sure this is the right building?" Shannon questions.

"That's the one! Whatcha waiting for!" Eunbi dragged her inside the building.

"Eunbi-ah who is that person you're dragging? You know dragging random stranger will get you into trouble." The receptionist scolded her.

"I know unnie, but she's a good friend of mine's and she wants to audition." Eunbi explained as she continued dragging her to the audition room where a few other girls standing around a middle ages man reviewing a few papers. He then saw Eunbi embracing another girl.

"Eunbi-ah? What are you doing here? I thought I gave you the day to rest? Who's that girl you brought with you? Didn't I tell you not to bring strangers here?" The man questioned.

"Sorry Sungjin-nim I ran into Shannon-ah yesterday at a local cafe. She is looking for an agency to sign. She's hoping to audition." Eunbi introduced Shannon to the CEO.

"Is this true young lady?" Sungjin questioned.

Shannon tried to explain, but she found herself intimidated by the man's stern glare.
