WALK THROUGH WALLS

TWENTY THREE

So here we were, walking aimlessly while the guides spoke so much Korean language and another one translated into English. I guess they believed that if you could not understand Korean, then you must know English, how wierd is that. I could see some of the participants helping their fellow countrymen by translating into their native languages. Eugene had earphones on, Cai was speaking to Aggie and as for me, I decided to just look at the environment being that it will be up to me to update them on what was explained.

We were taken to an ampitheatre and told that that was were we will be performing. We were also shown a dance studio, a piano room, a studio, a musical instruments storage room, a gym, a basketball pitch, a swimming pool and the best part was that we are given permission to use the facilities. We were then shown a smaller ampitheatre were we were told that it was to act as the place were we will be meeting as contestants during our weekly challenges. Apparently, we will be having an internal competition among ourselves away from the eyes of the audiences.

We were also informed that during the open night, we will be grouped up according to different colours and we will be assigned trainers and people to help us. We were also told that we were to be given some kind of uniforms according to the colours we will get. We were to also be taught a song that we to be used as our introductory presentation during the official first day of our competition, the thing I hated most.

I think the tour took like two and a half hours because when we reached the room, we had only thirty minutes before we had to go for dinner then go for the gathering. Aggie and I reached the room and found the rude roommate already there freshly showered. She was pampering herself. I went and took my shower before Aggie and then changed into a t-shirt and some skinny jeans. I noticed that the roommate was wearing a t-shirt written the talent Academy she was from. I also saw that Aggie had a t- shirt written the company she was from. This came as a shock to me but just then, my phone vibrated telling me that it was time for the group chat.

When Aggie came out of the washroom, I excused myself and went to look for Cai .

Lensah: hey you guys. I know you have a lot to ask for fire them away.
Jackson: are you sure that is not Jimin?
Cai: hey, that's not my dad, Jackson.
Jimin: that's not me, am more handsome that I scare myself.
Felix: hahaha. bragging much. So who is he

Tae: seriously Lensah, you did that?
Cai: with the mixed up persons over here uncle you have to. I spoke Korean language with my roomies now we are stuck with it.
Lensah: it is hard to speak in English with anyone because you can't be sure if they understand you or not.
Jackson: poor you. I guess you will be bragging in Chinese also Lensah!
Lensah: I guess so. I will get some gēgē and oppas over here. Also some boyfriends to visit when I start my travelling around the world dream.
