Eun Ji’s POV

“Morning, Eun Ji-agassi!” the maids lined up in one row and bowed low to greet me. I suppressed a yelp as I walked in my mansion like an awkward penguin. I wasn’t use to this extravagance since I’ve been living independently in the US.

“Hehe, morning…morning,” I bowed back to them. My hair fell in front of my forehead, covering my face.

As I walk toward the dining room, a couple of maids followed me behind. I quickly took a seat on the extra long dining table (I have no idea why because theres only three of us in the family) as the other maids served me breakfast.

“Omelette rice and orange juice for you, main dish would be-”

“No, it’s okay, this will do, thank you,” I cut the butler off and he immediately retreated back to his position, which is standing behind me. I felt so pressurized and weird eating alone with 10 pairs of eyes watching me. Like one mistake I do, they will immediately punish me. *Shivers*

“Mr. Lee?” I asked.

“Yes, Agassi?” in a second the butler was by my side. “May I help you?”

“Where is appa and omma?”

“They are at work and they requested that you enrol into the academy by yourself.” He spoke like a robot, probably just repeating words that my parents wanted to convey. I sighed loudly and nodded to the butler.

“Yes, I will do that later,”

After breakfast, I took a long bath and packed the application form that I needed for the school. I’ve decided to choose the Music Department instead of the Science Department, since I’ve totally had zero interest in science. Or math.

I wore my usual clothing; jeans and a plain t-shirt. Since it was chilly outside, I wore a black jacket over my t-shirt. Sling bag wasn’t for me, so I took my favourite back pack and went out of the house. As usual, I got those looks from the maids. As if they were thinking how bad I looked.

I rolled my eyes at them and ignored their gossips.

They had the same look that my mother gave to me on the day I arrived home. My mother looked down on my fashion sense. As if I had one. I just like comfortable clothes, and hated to be in style. I had long hair last time. But because the students in my previous school hated my long hair, they decided to become a barber and cut it off.

I was pissed, obviously, so I started a hair fight with them. In the end, my hair was so badly out of shape that I looked like an orang-utan, ditto to the . I went to the hairdresser and she styled my hair back, even though it is way shorter now. I look almost like a guy. Plus, my dressing isn’t too girly.

Which brings me back to the point; rich people don’t like tomboys. Especially my mother.

I don’t give a damn. Want me to wear those long and disgusting dresses? No way.

I took a public transport to the Academy as I do not want people thinking that I’m rich and all that stuff. I alighted at the front gate of the Academy. It’s extremely, extremely huge. I mean, the iron wrought gates itself is as tall as a 4 storey building. I showed my pass to the security post in front of the school.

Their eyes scrutinized my body like I was being visually. After they made sure I am not a crazy terrorist, they allowed me to enter the humongous school.

From the outside is already big.

Inside looks like it’s another different city.

I gasped as I walked along the roadway where the rich Chaebols drive on. My jaw felt like it was permanently hanging. After a long, long walk to the entrance of the first building, The students here all eyed me as if I was a freak. I ignored them and carried on walking. Apparently, from what I see, the first building is where the auditorium and some administration stuff are held, and it’s is also the teachers office.

 The automatic door swished open and I stepped into the Administration Office. One of the office lady greeted me as she asked for my first name. Huh? Why would she need it?

“Why do you need my first name?” I questioned.

“To check if you are from one of the rich families,” she smiled, not trying to be rude to me, in case I was some rich lady. Which I am.

“Er… I’m sorry, but I came to apply for the singing audition here. So I just wanted to ask where the audition is held.” I tried my best to put up a smile but I bet my smile ruined everything. The office lady’s face immediately darkened.

“Audition room is upstairs, the hall.” She said and went back to do her work.

I rolled my eyes at her attitude, obviously aiming for wealth. Typical people.

I walked out of the office and tried finding my way through. I trudged up the grand staircase and tried looking the world ‘Hall’ which apparently is very difficult to find.

I walked past so many students but none of them wanted to help me. /le sad

“Hey, do you need help?” somebody asked me. *Finally, a helper!*

I whirled around and found a girl staring at me. “Yes, I need some help! Where’s the audition hall?” I asked the girl. She has black hair that spilled all the way to her back and her skin is so white and soft. Her school uniform was neat and tidy.

“Oh, just go straight and turn left and you’ll see it. But remember don’t turn right!” she finished instructing me and turned away, her long hair almost slapped my face.

*I didn’t even get to thank her…*

I move along the hallway aisle and finally reached the end of the hallway. *Turn left…* I remembered the girl’s words and turned left.

There were a couple of chairs and I sat on it. The guys in front of me eyeballed me. I scanned the area and noticed there are only guys here. *the ladies auditions are done?*

One by one, the guys went into the hall. I waited patiently as my heart palpitated against my ribcage. Finally it was my turn. I went in and skimmed my surroundings. The hall was bright and there are only two judges seated in front of the hall. It was more like a studio instead, where the large mirrors were placed behind me.

I greeted them shyly as they just nodded back.

“Jung Eun Ji-ssi?” the male judges confirmed with my name.

“Yes, I’m Jung Eun Ji,”

“Please, if you’re ready, you may start singing.” They settled back in their chair as their eyes bore into mine.

I cleared my throat and mind and started singing. I don’t regard my voice as perfect, but I wasn’t bad at singing. I sang my favourite music loud and proudly, the room engulfed with only my voice. I peeked at the judges, a surprised look splashed across their faces. After when I was done, both of the judges had a smile on their faces.

*Yessah! I think I made it* I grinned sheepishly.

“Mr. Jung Eun Ji-ssi, you’ve been accepted. Please proceed to the room on your left for your uniform collection and your class schedule . Congratulations, Mr. Jung. I’m looking forward in seeing your talents. You sing really well.” The male judge said.

*Mr. Jung? The fudge? Does that mean that I’m a male student here? WHAT?!*

“Oh, and you’ll be sharing a dorm with another male student.”

It was then and there that I’d nearly fainted from shock.
