Part 15

  Suddenly, my alarm clock rang.
I sat up and reached for my alarm clock. Just when I turned it off, I stood up and quickly got changed.
I ran down stairs, to the kitchen.
"You're up pretty early." My mum looked at me surprised.
"Yeah, today is my first day as a trainee." I explained.
"Oh, so you got in." I mum turned round.
"Yes." I lowered my head.
"That's great. I'm really proud of you. Be sure to work extra hard from now on, okay?" My mum unexpectedly waked towards me and hugged me.
"I thought you were against me becoming the company's trainee."
"I was against it because your chances of becoming an idol were really minimal, I was just worried that you would waste all of your time on chasing a dream that would never have come true."
"But now it's slowly is becoming true. I promise I will work extra hard from now on." I smiled.
Suddenly, someone knocked on the door.
I walked towards the door.
"Hi, how are you today?" Jun asked, as I opened the door.
"Hi, I'm fine." I answered.
"I came to pick you up."
"Yuri needs to eat her breakfast first." My mum said, as she began to set the table. "Would you like to join us?"
"Yes, why not?" Jun smiled.
"Come on then, take your sits." My mum said, as she sat down at the table.

Before I knew it, we were walking through the company's entrance door.
"Nervous?" Jun smiled.
"A little." I answered, as I took a deep breath in.
"No need to be nervous, you'll be just fine." Jun patted me on the shoulder.
"Just sit here, someone should come and show you around in couple of minutes. I have to go for my rehearsal. I won't be able to walk you home today." Jun said as we walked towards some sits at the corner. "I'll see you tomorrow, then. Don't forget to come to the concert, okay?" With that Jun left.
Before taking my seat at the very end sit, I looked at the clock, which was hung on the wall just in front of me. (Oh, I couple of minutes early).
By each minute I was getting more and more nervous and impatient.
I looked at the click again, it was already fifteen past ten.
(What am I supposed to do? Were they just joking around when they told me to come?) At that moment, I began to have serious doubts about me being accepted as a trainee.
I sat and just looked at the clock, not knowing what was I meant to do.
Before I knew it, the it was already ten to eleven.
Just as I was about to stand up, I heard my name being called out.
I immediately turned round in the direction where the voice came from.
There was a woman standing, near the reception desk.
I slowly stood up and unconfidently walked towards the woman.
"You must be Lee Yuri?" The woman turned round to face me.
"Yes, that's me." I quickly answered, even more nervous than before.
"Please follow me." As the woman said that she turned round and lead the way past the reception, into the big hallway.
"I'll show you around the building, and then you'll go to the meeting room." The woman said as she continued on walking.
Suddenly, the woman stopped at the large door. "This is where you will be having your dancing classes." The woman opened the door slightly, just enough for me to see the inside of the dance studio.
After about thirty seconds, the woman quietly closed the door, and continued on walking.
After a minute or two, the woman stopped at another door, and fully opened it. "This is where you'll be having your music classes."
I looked through the door, and I immediately noticed all of the professional equipment, such as the recording studios, and different instruments.
"Wow." I looked around the room.
"Come on there's still one last room." The woman gestured me to follow her.
I followed the women until she once again stopped at a door. "This is where you'll be having all of your other classes, such as Korean, foreign languages, and other basic classes you'll need." The woman opened the door, as I leaned out to look through the door.
"It's fine if you can't remember the direction, you'll be getting a map and your new schedule, sometime today." The woman smiled.
"Come on, I'll show you to the meeting room." The woman said as she made her way through the hallway.
The woman stopped in front of a door, and knocked twice.
"Come in!" A voice from behind the door spoke.
The woman opened the door widely. "Lee Yuri, is here." The woman gestured me to come in.
I entered through the door and bowled.
"Please take your seat." A man at the far end of the table pointed at the sit next to the entrance.
I slowly took my sit.
As I calmed down a little, the man began to talk, roughly introducing me to the weekly schedule.

(Time skip)
"Here, this is your schedule and the map of the building. Don't lose it. You will officially begin your classes on Monday." The man handed me two pieces of paper.
As I picked up the pieces of paper, I took a quick glance at the clock. It was already five past twenty-one.
"Come on, I'll see you off to the exit." The man said as he stood up and walked towards the door.

(Time skip)
As I finally got back, to my home, my mum was sitting on the couch in our living room.
"How was your day?" My mum asked.
"It was okay. I'll be officially starting on Monday." I answered.
"Oh okay. Anyway, do you want anything to eat?"
"Umm-... Not really. I'm a little tiered, I'll just go to sleep. Good night!" I answered, as I made my way to my room.
