Kiara is a typical 14-year-old teenage girl from a middle-class family. Sadly, Kiara doesn't have anyone besides her younger sister Sara, who is just 2 years younger than her. She is currently living with her Aunt, who is her father's older sister (Bua)...

Kiara was randomly sitting in her shared bedroom with her sister, listening and dancing to songs of the love of her life... It is not just one boy but SEVEN. It's a Korean Boy Band popularly known as 'Fallen Angels'. She was enjoying her dancing session when a sudden voice interrupted her thoughts...

"Just sit there and do nothing, OK? That's the only thing you can do." the person said sarcastically.

"I've already done all the chores you told me to do, granny, at least let me sit peacefully now," said Kiara.

"Yeah! That's what you can do... Just always talk back to your elders right... Don't learn anything from us. At your age, we used to handle all the responsibilities of the house." said her granny, rolling her eyes at Kiara.

KIARA;

Oh No! She is going to start again. I don't want to cry right now...

"You are just like your ungrateful mother... doing nothing, not respecting anyone, being selfish, that's the only thing she used to do... She ran away because of you both only. One day when I'll also leave you both, then you'll respect me", Granny said while I was going numb.

I stayed silent, knowing I didn't have any words now. I tried hard to concentrate on the song, but my mind couldn't. All the memories were again coming to my mind. My eyes got teary, and my ears got numb. I tried not to cry, but the situation was not helping.

When Granny finally left the room, slamming the door shut, tears started falling from my eyes. It was already 3 years since Mom left us. I was heartbroken... And if this is not enough, everything has been going wrong in my life. My grades were going down, and I was failing my exams. My family was toxic and all of this was not helping at all but making me depressed...

Suddenly, a notification popped up on my phone screen. I checked it... It said 'Cyber Entertainment is taking Auditions of Girls, finally!!... Girls of ages 13-19 can audition worldwide... You can audition online as well. Maybe Mr. Chris is making their first girl group finally..."

I was shocked after reading that and finally, my focus went to the song, and then it stuck me...

"WAIT!!! FALLEN ANGELS ARE ALSO FROM... Cyber Entertainment... RIGHT?" I said, almost shouting.

And then what? Like any other Archangel (Fallen Angels FANDOM), I auditioned for Cyber Entertainment without thinking twice... knowing quite well that I am already suffering from the worst, what else can happen, in the 'worstest' case, which is not even a word, I will be homeless, but I don't give a Shit about it... I decided to take the risk knowing I was not going to get selected anyway... Little did I know that destiny had decided something else for me...

One Week Later...

One week has already passed since I gave my Audition... Just 3 days ago, I got an E-mail from Cyber Entertainment. I was shocked, thinking maybe I passed the audition, but when I hesitantly opened the mail it said "Hi Kiara Verma, we have successfully received your Application. If you pass the audition, we will contact you within a month or two but if we don't, We are Sorry Better Luck Next Time... Thank You for Applying.

CYBER ENTERTAINMENT"

My excitement went crashing down and nervousness and embarrassment took over me. Why??? Nervousness because I again had to wait until a month or two and even if I was selected as a trainee, then I would have to go to Korea for my training and embarrassed because I thought that I passed the Audition I MEAN thousands of them gave the audition, and they are much better than me...

1 MONTH LATER......

Today, when I came back from school, I started scrolling through my phone to check if there was some important message, and then......

"CYBER ENTERTAINMENT"

As soon as I read it, I opened it at the speed of light, and it said...

"HI KIARA VERMA, WE HAVE CHECKED YOUR APPLICATION AND WE HAVE SEEN THE POTENTIAL IN YOU. GENERALLY, WE TAKE SO MANY AUDITIONS BEFORE FINALLY TAKING THAT PERSON AS OUR TRAINEE BUT YOU HAVE THE SKILLS THAT WE NEED IN OUR TRAINEE. SO WE WOULD LIKE TO INVITE YOU TO KOREA AND TAKE YOUR FINAL AUDITION... OUR MANAGER WILL COME TO INDIA TO PICK YOU UP FROM THERE, SO DON'T NEED TO WORRY ABOUT THAT... IN CASE YOU STILL HAVE ANY INQUIRIES CONTACT US HERE: 010745**** Thankyou" 

And at this point, I knew I fucked up... Sara was watching me all this time, seeing my mouth and eyes wide open, I was clearly shocked as hell, so she finally asked...

"YEAH! Are you okay?? Did you hit something on your head??"

I was so shocked to say something, so I just passed my phone to her, still not able to process what just happened... and the next thing I knew... She started screaming... Bombarding me with tons of questions...

"Aaahhhhhh... YEAH! WHEN THE HECK DID YOU GIVE AUDITION?? HOW DID YOU GET SELECTED?? HOW WILL YOU GO TO KOREA?? DID YOU TAKE UNCLE, AUNT'S PERMISSION YOU KNOW YOU'LL BE HOMELESS IF THEY-THEY-" I cut her off. Gosh, I was already no less frustrated. Come on, I am also thinking about what to do next...

"YEAH!! SHUT UP WILL YAH? THANK YOU FOR HELPING ME SO MUCH IN INCREASING MY STRESS AND ANXIETY. I AM GRATEFUL FOR YAA..." I said, shouting at her accidentally taking my frustration out on her.

"Yeah... I am sorry, calm down... okay, I was just shocked..." She laughed nervously

"You better not do that again otherwise next time you're dead... you know..." I said, glaring at her.

" Okay!... Anyway, how did this all happen?? What will you do now??" She was excited as hell, making me dizzy.

"Okay then listen carefully..." I explained everything...

"So this is how it goes..." I laughed awkwardly.

"So what are you going to do now ?? " She asked, looking at me, still excited, making me angry because, come on here I am dying from nervousness. I didn't tell anyone at home, and now I have to go to another country and here she is all excited.

"Umm... They gave me their Contact No. in the E-mail..." I said, somehow controlling my anger.

"So??" She asked, being as clueless as ever. I almost snapped at her.

"Stupid Use Your Brain... So I am thinking of contacting them... and tell them our whole situation."

"Are you sure?.. I mean, is it okay to tell them something this personal, what if they are fake or something..." She said and even though she was not wrong, I wanted to kill her, does she think I am that dumb?

"Idiot..." I smacked her head.

"Ouch... YAAH!!!... Why did you hit me??"

"Because you deserved it... Anyway, don't think too much. I already did all the research. They are not fake... And about telling them about us, it's OK. We have to explain the situation to them... I think they will understand..." I said with a soft smile.
