They Are Hiring!

The days were doing good. The teachers gave us a loooot of projects to work.  My days be like: going to the class at morning and working on a project on the afternoon until night.

It's night now and I'm going to my dorm almost crawling. My back is hurting for being on the same position for hours and I couldn't change it until that part was done. But, at least, I don't need to be for hours in that position again anymore. Just another one. That's fine. Thinking about what to do next, I arrive at the dorm. Yejin is already there, smelling well from the recent bath.

- Hiii... - I say not in a good state of mind. I need to sleep.
- Let's go out! - Yejin see me in and turn on her bed to say this to me.
- What? Really? I can't even walk, Yejin! For like THIS - I do a "pinch" sign to indicate "a little" - I wasn't hired for The Walking Dead right now. How come are you not tired?
- Ah... - She paused. - So... I slept the role day after class. - She gives me a "yellow smile", like we say in my home country.
- Oh, so that's why you disappeared. You were hidden here... But I worked until now.
- You have to relax sometimes. You're working too much.
- Ah... I don't know. Guess I'm just afraid to fail and go back to my country. But part of me enjoy what I do.
- Ok. So I'll tell the guys you won't go.
- Ok, thanks...

I go to the bathroom to take a bath that I deserved. I last longer than I usually do to send the tiredness away.

When I finish, Yejin is not here anymore. I put my pajamas, climb the bed and fall asleep quickly.

Next morning, I wake up and see that Yejin came and slept here, which is good for her. I go take a shower quickly, to wake me up. After I finish, I go wake up Yejin too.

- Come oooon! Don't be late! - I shake her.
- Huummm... Do I really need to go?
- Hum, yes? It's your future that you are building! Go take a shower to wake up too.
- Uff... Help me to stand.

She gives me her hand. I take it and pull her to sit, trying to do more moving her body to stand.

- Are you drunk?
- Hum... Maybe.
- What time did you arrived?
- Does it matter?
- Humpf... Just go take a shower. I'll look for some medicine to keep you awake and without headache.

She mumbles and go to the bathroom almost like me coming back to the dorms last night.

- We still have time. Don't take too long, so we can eat before class.

She ends faster than I thought. We take our stuff and go to the cafeteria.

After we take some food and sit, Yejin started to speak about something she saw the last night.

- GIRL! I need to tell you something! Last night before... - And she started to whisper. - Before getting drunk, I saw something: they are hiring! Hihihihihi!

She covers her mouth to not let the laugh come out too loud.

- Where they are hiring?
- At the JYPE!! - She laughs more and shakes her legs in excitement.
- Hum... Ok...? And?
- Girrrl, don't you remember? I talked to you about that kpop group, Stray Kids.
- Oh, yeah! I remember. So will you gonna try?
- Oh, of course! And it's on something we like to do: art!
- Oh! What type of art?
- I don't remember... Ah... Guess I was already drunk. - She puts her hands in her face.
- So how do you know that they are hiring?
- Because I saw it! Somewhere... Look, we have to search for it after class, ok?
- "We"?
- Uhm... Would you go with me? Pleaaase? I don't wanna go there alone.

She looks at me with her puppy eyes, begging. It's really cute, but I have projects to finish. If I go, will I have time to do everything?

- Well... I don't know, Yejin. You don't even know if this is real or if you dreamt about it. We'll search for it later and see what we do, ok?
- Okay...

She looks disappointed and pouts. Like I said, she is cute, but... Then we go to class. It's Friday, but the "glass art" teacher won't leave us without nothing... We need to bring something next weak, so I'll start to make it as soon as I get back to my dorm. After lunch, I start to think about what I can paint. Something about Korea? About Brazil? Or something easy? My thoughts were interrupted by Yejin.

- So... Can we talk about that thing now?
- Hum? Oh, about the hiring? - I don't really want, but it's better to do it right now to get free quickly. - Ok, let's search for it first and see if they are really hiring and for what.
- Ok. - She takes the laptop and opens it. - AAAAAAH! LILIAN!

She calls me and I got scared by her scream of excitement. I look to the monitor and there is a big announcement taking the whole page. They are hiring. And for art stuff. Yejin clicks and there is a list of what to do. There is photography, edition for social medias, make up, some productions and a bit more.

- Come on, Lilian, we need to go!
- Again, "we"?
- Lilian, don't let me go alone, pleeease.
- But why do I need to go? I don't really need a job.
- Lilian, think a bit more. It's good for people in our age to gather money for our future.

This is what I feared, the worst of all: she is right. I have to agree with her. Plus we'll have an experience of a job and in one of those things we're studying now. I give up.

-Ok, you're right. - I sigh, but she claps her hands happily. - What do we have to do?

Then we click in one of those buttons to know what we need to take with us. We do the subscriptions right on the website.

- Right! - Yejin sighs. - Now we wait.
