italics: her own conversation with herself
by the way, chan is of course, already training at the JYPE

"oppa, do think they'll accept to be one of their trainees?" i asked chan oppa, unsure of myself. "of course princess, just do and be yourslef like you always do." i just smile at oppa.

"astrid? chris? are you ready? let's take you to the airport." appa told us. yes we're going to the airport because chan oppa secretly send some entertainments a video of me singing while playing my piano. it is my first time going to south korea, while my brother is living there. he just cameback to have a vacation but the video thing happened, and now he's going back with me.

"eonnie, please take care of yourself." lucas and hanna pleaded me as this is the first time that i'll be faraway from them. we bid goodbyes.

on the way to the airport, i am silent, thinking how i will be living and training. the thinking stops as chan oppa but his hands of my shoulder, "don't worry bub, you'll do great for sure. just don't think too much." he smiled at me. it is a very reassuring smile.

audition day;
chan oppa accompanied me to the audition hall, i am very nervous because there's alot of auditionees and not to mention but they are also talented. their voice are beautiful as they practice there piece.

when is now my turn to showcase i have, someone from the scouters asked, "are you the one that singing; stone cold while playing the paino?" i am taken aback because they remembered the video my oppa send them. "yes it is me, why sir?" i replied. "oh i see, can you just do some freestyle for us?" i nodded

*just imagine you are the girl in the middle & the song was released in 2015 hehe.*

after you are done dancing, you heard some clapping, looked for it and saw some of, i assumed, trainees and i was shocked when i saw red velvet members and some of snsd. i tried not to fangirl, thank god i succeeded. after that the scouter told me to wait outside.

after waiting for the audition to finish, i texted chan oppa to fetch me a little late. looking up from my phone, i saw someone, who i guessed a staff at the entertainment, told me to follow her. as i follow her, i started to get nervous and all. we went to a room, and in that room i saw lee soo man-dpnim, greeted him and asked why he wanted to me to wait.

"oh annyeonghaseyo chanria-ssi, please take a seat." i bow as i take my seat, "did you auditioned for other entertainment? or just SME?", "just SME sir." i replied. "good cause starting tomorrow, you will be training to be a part of a group." he smiled, i nodded. "thank you sir, promise i will not let you down." he nodded, "oh and you will meet your members today as well." my jaw dropped, "this early? they already plan my debut? wow." that is running in my mind and didn't notice that my future members came inside the room. i was shocked as all i see is boys, younger and older than me. is shit about to go down?

and of course not wanting to be rude, i greeted them. "annyeonghaseyo, bang chanria imnida, please take care of me." while smiling. "hi we're nct, i'm the leader, taeyong." replied back while smiling as well. they take turns to introduce themselves. but one guy stood out, a tall guy that have a long hair. he is quite intimidating.

as the day when on, (and on and on 😉) you got really close to all of the maknae (the dreamies) because they are close to your age. still intimidated by johnny. "are you going to move to our dorm?" chenle asked out of blue, "not sure, they didn't told me yet." chenle nodded. my brother texted me if is it okay to fetch me already, i told him yes.

"so are you the maknae in your family?" taeyong oppa asked, "actually i'm the second oldest, i have both little sister & brother." i answered, giving him a smile. "where are they? i mean, do they live here in korea or?" mark oppa asked, "sadly no, they are in australia." and they seemed shocked by the information that i came from outside korea, "it is bad?" i whispered to myself maybe a little loud for them to hear, "no no no, because your korean is so good." i smiled in relieve, "ah because my older brother is staying here so he taught me how to speak in korean." still smiling, "oh he's a trainee as well?" jaehyun oppa asked, i nodded happily, conversation stopped when we hear someone knocking at the door.

peeking through the door was my brother, confused because i'm in a room full of boys. "uhm i'm here to fetch my sister?" he said in really confused voice. i nearly laugh at him HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. "oh oppa, they are my members." said smiling. he just nodded and took me by my wrist indicating we should go, "uhm guys, we're gonna go now, thank you." i smiled.

"that's really your members?" chan oppa asked. "yes, lee soo man himself brought me to that room. why?" asked him back, "nothing i heard that they are debuting next year."

i just nodded, if they are debuting next year, is it a big risk? a girl in a boy group? am i going to debut before my brother?
