Audition

just a little throwback to when Rae auditioned!

I looked up at the building in front of me, it wasn't as big as the famous entertainment labels. BigHit was it? There are basically no successful artists from here, they only have a ballad singer named Lee Hyun, and a few girl trainees.

Is this a good idea?

It's an honor to have gotten scouted but am I making the right decision. How will I pay the fees?   Wait, no, this isn't the time to be second guessing! 

I willed myself to go through the door, when I went inside I saw a crowded hallway filled with boys and a few girls. It was slightly intimidating but there's no going back now.

I saw a small desk where two middle aged men were sitting, that's probably where I sign in.

I walked over and bowed and said hello

"Name and birth date please." The man on the left said monotonously.

"Uh, Choi Ae-Ra. November 7th, 1995!" I say slightly nervous now.

"Wow, 13 years old. You sure you can endure the trainee life, I mean even if you get accepted." The man on the left says while chuckling

My eyes narrow, who does this guy think he is?

"Oh don't listen to him, he's just a bit grumpy! Anyways, here is your number, good luck!" The nicer one of the two exclaims.

I take my sticker which has my audition number, and sat against the wall. This place is definitely cramped. 

I checked my watch it has been about an hour since I came here, I'm number 49. I'm pretty sure I'll be called soon.

"Number 48!" A woman yelled

A scrawny girl walked slowly towards the audition door, looking as if she was going to throw up.

I looked around me and noticed there were only about 15 people left, 

BANG

The same girl who was about to audition ran out of the door, it had only been 10 seconds? What the hell happened? My best guess was she got cold feet last minute. 

Oh well, I guess it's my turn... Great.

"Number 49!" The same woman yells.

Okay Ae-Ra, you got this! Don't be scared, you're a strong person you can do this audition! Easy!

As I got closer, and closer to the door my so called confidence slowly chipped away.

I opened the door slowly and peeked my head in. I recognized one person, he was the one who gave the business card for auditions!

"Choi Ae-Ra, right?" The familiar man says

"Uh, yes that's me." I answered.

"Great! I'm Bang Si-Hyuk, and the person next to me is Song Sun Deuk. He is a choreographer here, we will be judging your audition." He says quickly, as if he has said the same thing multiple times. Which he probably has.

"Will you be auditioning for a dance, rap, or vocal position?" Song Sun Deuk asks

"Dance and singing, sir." 

I see Si-Hyuk-nim raise his eyebrows slightly, and wrote something on a paper in front of him. 

"You have my music in the email I sent right?" I ask making sure I didn't mess up.
