I roll out of bed groaning to the sound of my alarm clock. My alarm is really 'Cheer Up' by Twice. I love the song, but I know why It's playing. I have an audition today in Seoul, South Korea. I flew here from America and I am nervous for this audition with (Made up name) Firestone Entertainment. They accept idols of all races, genders and ethnicities. I am African-American with my Korean name (Fitting to Hangul because it can't be pronounced as otherwise) 'Jam-Miya' or '잠미야'. I have naturally dark yet tanned skin, brown eyes, and long curly black hair. I bleached the ends blonde so that I could stand out. It's 9 O'Clock and boy am I gonna be late. I get dressed quick and leave my hair down.

I am nervous but I have trained for this since I was fourteen. I am 20 and I am a year younger than Jeongyeon. I get in my car and blast my audition song, which is 'Luv Me' by Twice. Why am I so nervous?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I pull up to Firestone Entertainment's HQ (Headquarters) and I enter the lobby. I get a weird look from the receptionist but I shake it off. I start to fill in the form.
"Hmm, gender. Female. Height? 5'9". Race? Black. Talent(s) Auditioning for? Dancing and Rapping." I mentally say to myself as I fill in the first couple questions of the form. I hand the paper to the secretary and she gives me a weird look too.
"Geez, what's in the air today?" I ask myself, muttering out loud.
"Ms. Davidson?" A lady says. "Right here!" I say, fixing myself up. My Make-up should be on point because of that new setting spray I used. I walk into a dance studio and Mr. Stone, The CEO of Firestone Entertainment, is standing there smiling.
"Ahh, Ms. Davidson, how are you?" He says.
Mr. Stone has been a good friend to my dad as they were in a boy group together. The group disbanded due to my father getting my mom pregnant and taking care of me. Of course an excuse was made to the fans to protect my family and the group, but none of the four members of 'Breaking Point' hate me.
"Very well, thank you!" I say cheerfully. He sits down at a desk and looks up at me after writing something down. I start my dance and singing to 'Luv Me' by Twice. I hit all the notes and lyrics perfectly, adding my own touch to it. I learned Korean, Japanese, and Chinese before I graduated Highschool because I knew that I wanted to be a Kpop idol from the start. Once I am done, he claps and I bow. He congratulates me and tells me that the results will come tomorrow as I am the last one of hundreds to audition. I get some food after and workout. I practice my next song, 'Like Ooh Ahh' by Twice non-stop in my rental apartment in Seoul and I am panting by the end. I figure that I need more space. I sing 'Going Crazy' by Twice on my way to an open studio for future trainees. I enjoy long walks to places when I can't be late for anything. I hear clapping as I finish the song. I spin around and I see her. She is so beautiful and I stop in my tracks.

She is smiling and waving at me. Oh Geez, my hear stops beating and I am frozen. I realize that I looked stupid and wave, smiling back. She's walking towards me. She gestures me to follow her to the studio and I obey. Here we go.
