New Start

Part 5

The next day she woke up early again even though she had not had the best night's sleep. Taking a brief look at her phone she had no messages from Junmyeon so heavily she dragged herself up into the bathroom.

It was 6am and she while staring at herself in the mirror she decided fuck you Junmyeon. She would show him. She decided right then and there to go to the casting later that day. She dragged herself into the kitchen and made a coffee turning on the tv she mentally planned what to wear and what to look like. It was only 6.30 am so she had time to get ready. Taking another look at the business card the woman had passed her yesterday she realised she had no idea where the place was to go to the casting. Frowning to herself she wondered what to do. Just then she had an idea. She texted Jungmin and asked him if he knew the place. He text back almost immediately to her surprise and told her he did asking did she need a lift? She told him definitely and she needed to be there before midday. So, he agreed to be waiting in the basement for her about half past 11. Feeling good she god herself a bath, using her best products in her hair and on her skin, she dried out her long hair carefully, and decided to leave it down and simple and not to over style herself. With a towel wrapped around her she made her way to the wardrobe and decided to stick with the simple theme. She selected a simple white button down and dark blue jeans with flat black boots. She could not be bothered with heels not at midday.

At 11.20 she grabbed her coat scarf and hat and made her way out of the apartment. She waited for the elevator to pop open and as it did out came Jongdae and Minseok who both abruptly stopped speaking to stare at her. She made her way past them with her eyes turned down trying to avoid their silence and stares. Desperately pressing the button for the basement and praying the doors to close she briefly looked up to see both men still stood in the hall way looking right at her. What was going on with these weirdo EXO guys?

Shaking the thought of them and getting back into her good mood Jungmin was waiting for her in the basement next to her car.

'Hi Miss,' He said brightly

'Hi, Jungmin nice to see you again,' she returned his smile.

She jumped in the car and off they went. It was a short journey and by quarter to 12 they had pulled up outside a tall glass building.

'I don't know how long I'll be,' she apologised to Jungmin.

'It's ok miss I'll be here,' he told her with a smile.

So, in she went not knowing at all what to expect.

There was a very pretty girl behind a very grand looking reception desk she decided to approach and ask.

'Yes, Miss, the casting is on floor 4 room 12 give them your name and wait to be called' Alex thanked her and made her way up.

The butterflies began to fly around her stomach, nerves bubbling up.

As the elevator popped open she saw a line of women sitting waiting to be called. Some were Korean. Some were western, most looked tall, with dark hair. That make her feel even more nervous. Filing past them she made her way into the small room and came face to face with the woman who gave her the card yesterday.

'You came!!' she exclaimed excitedly.

'Yeah!' Alex returned her excitement, feeling slightly better about the decision to turn up.

'I thought I'd give it a go,' she shrugged smiling apologetically.

'Come, come, come.' Hae-soo directed her into a chair and made her fill out about a dozen different forms, explaining each one as they went along.
