" if she chose this song then she most have perfected the dance , right dear" one of the judges who looked like she was in her late thirties said softly.
Emily smiled while nodding her head , of course she knew about the difficulty of the dance, but she practiced hard for it, so she confident that she could do it.
" Are you ready" Cha-min said with scarasm.
Emily smiled warmly , while taking off her coat revealing her outfit underneath which a white t-shirts paired with a black high waist. Tying her into a high bun also revealing slightly chubby , her pale white porcelain skin glowed in contrast to the the bright room making her like the recarnation of the goddess of beauty with her dark red hair that was tied in bun, it was no doubt that Emily was a wow factor for her goddess like beauty.
After taking some deep breath, Emily started dancing matching the beat of the song. Every single movement that she made were so clean and elegant almost like the song was made just for her , her facial expressions perfectly portrayed the emotions of the song making the choreography look even more polished.
As Emily danced her dark glossy red hair suddenly came loose , however she continued dancing.
The song ended, Emily finished dancing calmly catching her breath, she quickly arranged her hair before locking eyes with Cha-min who was still left stunned by Emily's performance.
Cha-min pov:
She really did not have hope for Emily's performance besides, the song she chose was specially choreographed by her, not even the artists could fully perfect the dance or at least not to her taste. But this girl danced it so perfectly even outdoing her, which was something that has never happened before .
( End of cha- min pov)
"Wow dear you danced beautifully ,am sure dancer cha- min can agree with that". One of the judges to Emily while slowly to look at cha-min's shocked expression.
A smile crept on cha- min face
" I couldn't agree more you danced almost too perfectly".
"You are an expressive dancer , you embody both the lyrics and your emotions in your dance and that is something we don't see everyday." One of the judges said complimenting her.
Emily was quite surprised by the judge that just spoke , she was so quiet that she barely noticeable but while she was dancing she noticed that occasionally she will write something down and she was the only judge doing that.
" She is probably a scouter" Emily murmured to herself.
" Thank you" Emily said to the judge not wanting to look rude by not responding to her compliment.
" Am happy to announce to you that you passed , please be at the dance room early class starts today " Cha-min while standing up to leave.
Emily bowed respectfully as all the judges were existing the room, when all the judges left , Emily also existed the room.
Meanwhile outside the waiting room
Naomi and Hani holding hands impatiently waiting for Emily but it was not only them waiting for Emily Chaline and Victoria ( Emily's step sister) were also waiting to mock her.
As Emily stepped inside the waiting room , she immediately greeted by a hug from Hani and Naomi.
" What did they say" Hani asked holding Emily's hand as if her life depended on it.
Emily smiled looking at her two best friends one that has been with her from high school even coming to live in south Korea so that she wouldn't be alone.....
( Flashback):
Emily was in her room when she suddenly heard her dad yelling her name to come downstairs.
Arriving downstairs Emily was met with a shoe flying across the room which was aimed at her by none other than Victoria.
" Yes dad " Emily answered visibly unbothered about the shoe that was supposed to hit her .
"Yes dad " Victoria imitated her but with a bad and ear deafening voice that resembled that of a frog.
" Go pack your bag we are moving to south Korea next week " Emily dad said indifferently.
" Why dad I love it here it holds memories of mom , how can you just decide to leave here" Emily said heartbroken by her father's news.
"We are going to south Korea and is final beside the tickets are already bought " Megan ( Emily's step mother) said grinning at her while slowly holding hands with Richard ( Emily's father).
Emily tried to retort but was immediately cut shut by her father " it is not a request it an order go pack your bag now".
Emily ran inside her room closing the door with a loud bang .
Emily took out her phone , scrolling through her contact list after some time she finally found Naomi's number.
( Calling)
Naomi picked up the call just to hear Emily crying from the other end. " Girl what happened"
" My dad said that we are moving to south Korea next week and I tried to convince him that we should stay because this place holds memories of my mom but he didn't seem to care" Emily said sobbing which completely broke Naomi's heart.
Naomi felt super sad for Emily " hey don't cry , you have to be strong take everything that reminds you of your mother " .
" And you take a video of all the places in your house that reminds of your mom ok" Naomi continued.
" Hmm"
( Knock)
Emily wanted to say something to Naomi but stopped when she heard a knock on her door.
" Who is it" Naomi asked .
" I don't know " she answered.
" Okay who ever it is ask them where you are going to live in south Korea". Naomi said standing next to her parents.
( Knock)
The person knocked again but harder.
Emily opened the door revealing her father who was standing there looking quite pissed.
" How long does it take you to answer the damn door " Richard said raising his voice.
" Am...s..or...ry " Emily struggled to talk.
" Take " Richard said while handing her plane ticket to her
Emily took the ticket, just as her father was about to leave she asked softly " where we going to live in south Korea" .
" Seoul city" he said walking away.
" Did you hear that Naomi" Emily asked .
" Sure did " Naomi said while turning to her parents " mom. dad can we please go to south Korea.
" Why south Korea " Naomi mom asked.
" Because I got accepted at the University of Seoul with Emily and her parents are also moving to south Korea with her so please mom" Naomi said intertwining her hand with her mom's making cute and innocent faces .
" Fine " Naomi dad agreed.
After Naomi convinced her parents , she to her room closing the door " okay Emily see you south Korea " .
" Thank you " Emily said finally smiling.
( Flashback ends)
... and Hani who she met just yesterday but was already close to her.
Just as Emily was happy , she locked eyes with Victoria.
Victoria let out a cold scoff " so you think you are amazing just because you passed the audition".
Emily rolled her eyes, she wasn't the type to start a fight but she was the type to end it " and what exactly do you mean" .
" Shouldn't it be obvious sis you definitely won't last , let's be honest you probably be the first person to get kicked out of the team" Victoria said with a mocking smile plastered on her face.
Emily really didn't have the time to deal with her, " word of advice I won't really bother about me besides between step sisters we both know how that beautiful voice really sounds like compared to mine" with that Emily left with Hani and Naomi.
( Dance room)
Inside the dance room only eighteen students were present meaning only eighteen students passed out of fifty students that auditioned.
" Wow so few students" Hani exclaimed in awe .
" Okay everyone please pay attention "
The head teacher commanded.
" Unfortunately there has been some issues, so training was supposed to start today but because of some setback it will be postponed to tomorrow morning , so everyone the song and choreography will be sent to the school forum, so do well to save it and start practicing". After the Head teacher made the announcement, she immediately dismissed not wanting to keep waiting especially because it is after school hours.
Nicheal office:
Nicheal was laying down on the sofa in his office, he body slightly relaxed but his eyes opened.
" Couldn't sleep" Tae-hyun asked .
Nicheal nodded he really didn't want to talk because he felt a headache coming, so he decided to stay quiet.
Standing up the sofa, Nicheal quickly wore his suit " let go " Nicheal said softly with his voice soft and calm but still held power and authority.
Stepping out of building, Tae-hyun expression suddenly changed from relaxed and calm to alert and serious.
Inside the car
Nicheal closed his eyes , trying to relax while slowly rubbing his heads on his temples with his face showing clear signs of fatigue.
Just as they drove out the company , someone ran in front of the car.
( Crash)
Nicheal's car suddenly hit a lady who came out of nowhere, although Tae-hyun acted quickly by stepping on break the car managed to hit the lady slightly.
Seeing that the lady fell, Tae-hyun turned to look at Nicheal who gave him a reassuring look before stepping out of the car to access the situation.
Nicheal naturally wanted to stay in the car but noticed the lady looked min-ji and if it was actually min-ji , he knew how shameless min-ji could .
Coming out of the car,Nicheal walked up to the lady who on the floor crying , Nicheal prayed that this lady should not be min-ji but as he approached the lady turned and turns out to be min-ji the last person he wanted get involved with.
Crowd gathered as soon as they heard someone crying but seeing that it was an accident and the owner of car was the young master Kim , everyone maintained a distance but even though they were scared to get too close to him , it didn't stop them from gossiping among themselves.
Seeing Nicheal , min-ji felt overjoyed
" Ouch Nicheal my leg hurts badly" min-ji said while shamelessly hugging his leg .
Nicheal looked at with nothing but pure disgust, trying his best to break free from her grip but she just increase.
Nicheal took a deep breath, the more she hugged him the disgusted he felt .
At this he felt like pushing her but he knows fully well unpredictable and shameless min-ji could be and he really didn't have the stamina to deal with her.
Tae-hyun who was in the car was already feeling irritated " how shameless can she really be ".
Tae-hyun hyun got out of the car, he knew the only reason why Nicheal was been so quiet was because he wasn't feeling so well at the most.
Nicheal looked at Tae-hyun who already boiling with anger.
Just as min-ji was about to say something Tae-hyun forced dragged her away from Nicheal.
Min-ji cried in pain but the crowd couldn't say anything so they just peacefully watched the drama unfold.
" Nicheal" min-ji called out her voice cracking as she forced tears out of her eyes" it hurt you can't just leave me like this at least take me to the hospital besides we are childhood "
She was about to say childhood sweetheart but Nicheal shot her a dreadful glare with made her swallow her words.
" Carry her to the car " Nicheal said walking away not caring about min-ji which obviously made her angry.
Tae-hyun hyun forced carried to the car .
( Inside the car):
Min-ji felt angry that was forced to sit at the front sit with this ruthless guy Tae-hyun meanwhile Nicheal was alone at the back seat.
Tae-hyun started driving clearly ignoring min-ji's intense glare.
" Hey you stop this car right now I want to sit with Nicheal" . min-ji commanded.
Min-ji waited patiently for him to obey her command but to her surprise he didn't even spare her a glance " are you deaf or something" .
Tae-hyun glared at her visibly irritated " if I hear another from you I will personally kick you out of this car , is that clear".
Min-ji was about to retort but after hearing Tae-hyun threat she immediately swallowed her word. Nodding obediently while quietly glancing at Nicheal you had no intention to help her .
" Drive to the nearest hospital" Nicheal commanded .
Tae-hyun nodded, accelerated trying to find the nearest hospital possible .
Silence filled the car which made min-ji visibly displeased, occasionally glancing at Nicheal through the review mirror, she let a long sigh.
( In the hospital)
Tae-hyun drove into a nearby hospital after searching for almost an hour.
"Finally" min-ji thought to herself.
After parking the car at the parking lot
Tae-hyun glanced at Nicheal through the review mirror noticing the bead of sweat forming on his head .
" Ahh Nicheal we are at the hospital now, won't you please assist me inside to see the doctor besides that's the least you can do since it was your car that hit me" min-ji stated shamelessly she was to say more but caught a glimpse of Tae-hyun who was furiously glaring at her.
Seeing his boss had no intention of helping min-ji, came down from the car .
Walking over to the passenger side, Tae-hyun opened the door forcely dragging min-ji out of the car , making her whince in pain , she turned to see Nicheal who didn't even move muscle basically oblivious to what was going on.
Seeing that Tae-hyun had no intention of being gentle with her , she cursed under her breath obediently cooperating with him.
Min-ji and Tae-hyun walked into the reception , a nurse quickly rushed to towards min-ji clearly seeing she was in pain .
" Madam you need to fill out this form because we can treat your wound"
The nurse said while examining her swollen ankle.
Min-ji quickly filled out the form before handing it to the second nurse." Madam you also need to pay before we can treat you" the nurse said.
Min-ji furiously glared at the nurse, she was going through intense pain and they care about is her paying , she glanced over at Tae-hyun was calmly scrolling on his phone not paying any attention to her.
Feeling annoyed min-ji brought her phone to pay.
[Ting]
The payment went through, the nurses immediately started treating her, " hmm it is just a small it should be fine in a day or two but make sure not to walk around too much or it could affect the healing process.
After everything was done min-ji requested to be carried on a wheelchair by a nurse, she didn't want to dragged again by Tae-hyun .
