I sit in class so nervously, crossing off all the options on my sheet. Nope. Nope. Nope. Gosh, how am I ever gonna find a club I got with? The bell rings again.
'Okay class please put your club choices in the box on your way out'.
I nervously walk up to the teacher.
'Excuse me miss, I still haven't chosen one'.
She gives me a nod, and signals for me to follow her. We end up in the staff room, my head thumping.
'Okay Sarah, we are putting the choices through now, so let's see what's left for you to join'. I feel like my body will collapse at any moment. I see all of the choices filling up with names of students. I see Ritsu's name come under tennis. I find myself smiling, she'll be happy when I tell her.
'Well Sarah it looks like you're going to have to try out for one of the idol groups'.
A sharp anxious chill runs through my body.
'If you don't make it in you'll have to be with me doing work'.
That sounded worse.
'Okay, which clubs are still available for auditions?'
The clubs are ranked in a way. Revolutiana is the hardest, then it gets easier to get into. All of these thoughts buzz around my head.
'I'm afraid to say that the only one left to audition for is Revolutiana'.
Great. Just great.
'Okay then m, when is it?'
'This afternoon'.
I walk out of the staff room practically in pieces. I walk up to Ritsu.
'Hey' is say in a wobbly voice.
'Hey are you Okay?'
'Yeah, oh by the way I just found out you're in tennis club'.
'OMG really?! Ahhhhh! I'm so excited! So what did you pick Sar?'
'Well I didn't pick anything myself, but the only thing left for me is... to...'
I start crying. I can't help it, it's been bottled up for a week now and I can't hold it in.
'Just breath Sar, geez you must have had to pick something really hard!'
' yeah... it's.. Rev' I say in between sniffles.
'WAIT, Revolutiana?! You're kidding right?!'
'No' my voice sounds like I'm dying.
'And my audition is in,' I check my watch, and the time makes me want to die. 'Five minutes'.
