(Im residence, Jaeyeon POV)

I was sitting in my room with my twin brother, Minjae, because we were waiting for a call from the Seoul Performing Arts High School. Yes, you heard right. We were trying to enter this school so we can be Kpop idols like our father, Im Jaebum, aka JB, of Got7. We did a dance audition to Appa's song "Never Ever".

"Do you think we screwed up Jaeyeon?" my younger twin asked me. I said, "Ani, Miji (Jaeyeon's nickname for Minjae). We worked hard with Appa and our uncles from Got7. They will definitely let us in."

Just then, we saw our Eomma, Im Minyeon, enter the room with our nine year old sister, Minyoon. They brought us snacks as Eomma asked us, "Did they call yet?" "No," I say. Minjae says, "We're still waiting for an answer. It could take a while since the audition was yesterday."

"I have faith in you Unnie and Oppa!" Minyoon says to us, giving us two thumbs up, "Fighting!" "Fighting!" Minjae and I told our little sister. Just then, my cellphone was ringing. After I picked it up, I put it on speaker. "Annyeong!" I say. Minjae says, "We are the Im twins, Jaeyeon and Minjae."

"Great. I have some news for you," says the principal of the school, "me and the judges were impressed with your dancing and we want you to be students in our performing arts school. Also, on your first day of school, you two are going to audition for JYP Entertainment and become trainees, if you make it. So be prepared."

"Thank you," I say. Minjae says, "Bye." We hung up, and started to cheer and hug each other, chanting, "We did it! We did it! We got into the Seoul Performing Arts High School!" Minyoon hugs us as our Appa walks in with our 11-year-old brother, Jaemin. "What happened?" Appa asks.

Eomma says, "JB. Our twins got into the school. They were also asked to audition for JYP on their first day!" Jaemin says, "Way to go Hyung and Noona! I'm proud of you!" I pick up Minyoon as Minjae picks up Jaemin.

"I got the mail, and you two have packages from the school," Appa says. We got our packages and saw they were the official uniforms. Yep, it's clear. Me and my twin brother are students at Seoul Performing Arts High School. Eomma says, "As your reward, me, your Appa and siblings, and your uncles from Got7 will throw you a congratulation party." "Daebak Eomma," we say. We couldn't be any happier than we were now.

(school, Minjae POV)

Because me and my older twin sister were going to audition for JYP, Jaeyeon and I were told to wear dance clothes to school, then change into our uniforms after the audition. We went to the same room where our admission audition was held.

"Annyeonghaseyo," me and Jaeyeon say as we bow and introduced ourselves to the judges. After they asked us a few questions, we did the dance to "Never Ever" like we did before. Then, after we got done, the judges clapped for us, and told us to wait outside. I was biting my nails nervously as I heard my older twin say, "Calm down Miji. I'm sure we did great like before." "I hope so," I told Jaeyeon Noona, "I just didn't want to disappoint you Noona."

"You will never disappoint me Miji," she says, "we got each other. We've been supporting each other ever since we were in the womb. There's no doubt in my mind about us making it." I nodded as we got called back into the room. JYP says, "Im Jaeyeon and Im Minjae, you have both passed your audition and are official JYP trainees. After school today, you are to come to my building and meet the other trainees, and start training."

I was hugging Jaeyeon as I said, "We did it Jaeyeon Noona!" "We sure did Miji!" Jaeyeon says. We got changed into our uniforms and went to our first class. "Sorry we're late," we say to our teacher, Mrs. Oh. She says, "That's fine. I understand that you were at the audition. Why not introduce yourselves."

We get in the front of the class and say, "Hello, we are the Im twins, Im Jaeyeon and Im Minjae." "Our mother is Got7's makeup artist," Jaeyeon says. I say, "And our father is JB of Got7." Everyone started talking about us. Yes, every since me and my sister were babies, we're well known in Seoul because of our father. It mostly had to do with what happened when he first got married to our mother when Suzy of Miss A tried to sabotage their marriage.

We took our seats and saw someone familiar to us next to Jaeyeon. Her name was Lee Su-Hee, Suzy and Lee Minho's daughter. Jaeyeon hated her guts because they argued back and forth about our parents and her mother. Me, I just stay out of it so nothing goes wrong like before.

(lunch period, Jaeyeon POV)

I can't believe I got seated next to Su-Hee. We never got along, not even in primary school. She said it was our parents fault for making people get angry at her mother for her actions. Minjae and I sat with some girls and boys that were already trainees at JYP.

One of the girls I was talking to, Nam Chae-Lee, was actually my best friend from primary school. She says, "I just heard that you and Minjae made it into JYP, Jaeyeon. I'm so happy for you!" "Yep, we're a team," I say, fist bumping with Minjae. He says, "We worked very hard to pass the audition."

"And it seemed to pay off," says Park Eunhyuk, my crush from primary school, who also happens to be a trainee. I felt my cheeks burn when he said that and say, "Uh. Ah. T-thank you Eunhyuk Oppa." The other girls were "Ooohhh-ing" at me about that. Minjae says, "So I guess we're all going to walk to the building after school."

"I guess so," says Natty, a Thai trainee. Just then, we saw Su-Hee walk up to our table. She sat next to Eunhyuk and said, "What's up everyone? Jaeyeon." "Su-Hee," I angrily say, "What do you want?" "I just wanted to say congrats on the audition," the wretch said, hugging Eunhyuk's arm, "and i wanted to see how Eunhyuk is doing as well."

I pull her off and say, "I think you already know now, so leave." "Fine. Fine. I'll go," she says, "but just so you know, it's going to be a hard road trying to make it as a singer like your father." She winks at Eunhyuk and leaves.

I ball up and fist and went back to my seat to eat. Just then, the school day ends, and we all leave so we can go to the building. "Alright, next stop, JYP Entertainment," says Adam, the male Korean-Chinese trainee, who happens to speak fluent English. When we do arrive, I take in a deep breath and say, "Time to start training." Then we enter the building.
