I can't say Ben was very enthusiastic about coming back soon to talk about his absence. Actually as if feeling I needed to go, he managed to show up five minutes before I left.
I felt so nervous about going to the studio that I couldn't interrogate Ben. Maybe later.
I've never actually felt this nervous before.
Well, maybe I have, but not before a job.
I can feel my palms sweating..
The people here are probably going to have more experience than me. And dancing? I only used to do that for fun..
Oh God...What the hell did I sign up for?
Adrian said I should give it a try.
Right. I'll never know if I can do this unless I try. Plus they pay more than my job at the Diner. And I won't have to wash dirty dishes all day long.
Not that I was much against it, but this is better.
Okay, I can do this.
I finally step into the building and ask the receptionist where I need to go. She looks my name up in her list and tells me to go to the 9th floor, studio C.
I nod politely back and head to the elevator. I slide in carefully and press the button 9.
Before the door closes, a hand comes in to push the doors open.
A young looking Asian boy steps in. Or is he a man? I can never tell the age with Asian guys. Joo Woo can look like he's sixteen, but when he's serious he looks 45.
I try not to pry, but he looks kinda cute and absolutely disinterested in anything around him. At least that's what his earphones and hoodie tell me.
He looks like one of those Korean pop idols that Jennifer is so into.
Especially because his hair is pink.
Like bubblegum pink.
I wonder if they have another division or group for boys.
-Hi.- I say smiling at him.
He raises his eyes, stares for a while and nods, then continues to look at his phone.
Surprisingly we both get off at the same floor.
And we both arrive at the same studio.
Huh.
He opens the door for me and I step inside.
It's a big dancing studio with mirrors everywhere. Wow.
-Don't just stand there like an idiot and come in.
Oh no... I know that voice. And definitely not in the best circumstances.
Rebecca of the Blackies is standing comfortably in the corner wearing the highest heels known to mankind.
Yup, the same Rebecca that got into a catfight with me in the bookstore's bathroom. The same one that threatened me with a knife. The same one that has the hots for Adrian..
Oh God. This just turned from possibly terrible to worse.
The feeling that this was a good idea is sinking by the minute.
-Hello to you too, Rebecca. What a coincidence.- I say through clenched teeth.
She smirks at me, smiling a vicious smile.
