*phone ringing*

I was half asleep, I felt my phone vibrated. Who is this calling in the middle of my sleeping hour? I ignored it and sleep back. Moments later, it rang again. I shouted and wake up.

"Ah! Jinjja?!" I sighed and looked at the caller. Zia?! I answered it.

"This has something to be good Zia! I swear! I'm going to kill you!" I exclaimed. I am still sleepy!

"Kill me my ass! I'm waiting here!" she exclaimed too. I looked confused right now. Did we talk about seeing each other today? I look at the watch and it's already 10:30 in the morning.

"What?"

"I told you yesterday I'll be waiting for you here outside in our building!"

"Huh? What building?" I stood up and fixed the bed. What's with Zia seriously?

"The entertainment? C'mon, I have been waiting for you here for 2 hours already!" I stopped at what I am doing.

"Wait, you told me yesterday that I am gonna see you all but you never mentioned that we'll be in your building. That would be trespassing if I--"

"Why would it be trespassing? You're a trainee now!" she exclaimed. I got stuck on my bed at what she said. What the hell is she saying?

"What are you talking about Zia? Stop making stories!" I shouted, half nervous.

"What? You signed the papers yesterday right? Now that makes you a trainee!" she replied back.

Papers? I recall all the things that happened yesterday. Wait. Wait! Don't tell me the papers yesterday are?!

"You mean the papers I signed yesterday is a contract?!" I shouted.

"Yeah, those are contracts! Now come in here and we are waiting for you, I am going to give you 1 hour Era-ssi! Ppali!" she said and she ended the call.

"Yah!" but it was too late, the call is already ended. What the hell? They fooled me?! Huh! I can't believe they're going the pull that card! They really are making sure that I'll be one of them huh? I sighed. What should I do now? Should I ditch them and hide here in the house?

I bit my lips and think of something. I am never gonna be an idol! This is not happening! I scratch my hair and sighed.

Guess you have no choice Era huh?

Minutes after thinking about what has happened earlier, I decided to get up and fix myself. I am going to that entertainment and I am going to speak to the CEO and tell him that everything there is a lie! Right! Good thinking Era! Good!

After I finish all of my rituals, I immediately went to the building. And there, I saw Zia looking so bored wearing her training outfit. As usual. I went to her and as soon as she saw me, her face lit up. Hmp!

"Era ssi! You came!" she said as she hug me. I remained silent and glared at her.

"What? Why are you glaring? I didn't do anything!" she sound defeated. I rolled my eyes.

"Yah! What did you do?" I exclaimed.

"I swear it wasn't my plan! I was completely shock yesterday when they talked about it, what's more even shocking is that you signed the papers! Without even looking or reading at it, so partially it's also your fault." she said while smiling, I glared at her and sighed.

"Ah! What should I do now?! I am not even into this!"

"Era-ssi, you are talented. The CEO choosed you because you are the missing piece for the group, c'mon let's go inside, they're waiting for you. And what are you wearing? Haven't I told you that you have training?" she asked as she looked at me and shook her head.

"Tss, I am going to say no and tell your CEO that I am not going to accept it." I mumbled. She just chuckled.

"You can't do that babe, once you sign the contract, there's no turning back." she said as we went inside the building. I was left with no choice but to say yes and start my life as a trainee.

As we were walking inside the building, all I can see is DAWN's faces and some stuffs that are related to them, I guess they're going to put some for the girls too. What are you even thinking Era? You might see him in here! I roamed around the building and I saw Kayden, Keon and Eros walking. I think they're going out. Keon looked at us and as he saw Zia he smiled and went to us. Oh c'mon!

"Zia hey! How's training?" he asked. Kayden and Eros is behind him. I looked away and pretended I didn't saw him. They're close huh? I never thought of that. I usually think that they don't speak at all once they saw each other, but that's impossible. How can they not greet each other, they are in one building tss.

"Oh! Keon sunbaenim, it's doing fine. We're finally debuting next month that's why we are really busy this past few--" my eyes widened at what she said.

"What?! You're debuting next month and you didn't even tell me!?" I exclaimed. The boys looked at me.

"Tss, we keep on telling you that but you are not interested!" she replied. I sighed in disbelief.

"What am I supposed to do now? I haven't even trained yet and then you just--"

"Oh, you must be the new addition to their group!" Eros said and went to us.

"H-hi," I stuttered.

"You must be Era, hi! I'm Eros, and this is Keon and Kayden." he said as smile. Oh, how cute, his eyes were gone the moment he smiled. But how did they know me? Kayden was just there looking at his phone, tss.

"Sunbaes, we better get going, we don't have time anymore. Thank you!" Zia said as she bow down. I bow down also and we continue walking.

"Zia-ssi! You are making me feel nervous!" I honestly don't know what to do. Everything come out fast and it's making me worry.

"Don't be, okay? You still have a month to train. I know you can do it." she said and smiled. I hope so Zia, I hope so.

DUSK's practice room.

It says in the door. Wait, you mean. DUSK is going to be the group name? Cool. It reminded me of DAWN. My eyes widened as I connected the dots. DUSK and DAWN. Right! So they're somehow like connected? Yeah, that's the point.

We went inside and I was greeted by the members' laugh and voices. As usual, they're noisy. Yes.

"Era!" they shouted in unison. I smiled and hugged them.

"We're finally complete! Finally!" Hannah shouted and they all hugged me.

"Yah, you still fooled me! How dare you do that to me huh?" I asked them they just smile and shrugged.

"Era-ssi, let's just forget that one and let's focus on training okay?" they said and I just nodded. I looked around and saw their teachers. I am so scared, what if I fail?

"Unnie, don't be nervous, you can do it!" Yewon cheer me up and I just smile at her. I hope I can.

I started practicing with them and I must admit, that it is totally fun.

"Era unnie, great job! See, you can even dance better than me!" Kahrel said and I just laughed. Later, I'll be seeing my vocal coach. I excused myself when I felt my phone vibrating. I saw Mom's name on the phone so I answered it.

"Eo? Eomma? Why did you call?" I asked her. I heard she squeaked and I was shocked. What is happening to Mom?

"I am glad you accepted the offer!" she said. I was confused.

"Offer?"

"Of being an idol, ah, my job is now done. I called because I just want to let you know that we can't go back in there next week, we'll extend our stay here, is that okay with you Era-ssi?"

I sighed. Again. They're not coming home, again.

"Arraseo Eomma, wait, and what did you said? Your job is done? You planned this also?" I asked. I rolled my eyes.

"Hehe, baby, I am doing it for you okay? Now tata! I'll hang up now, I miss you. See you soon!"

And mom ended the call.

"Aish, eomma!" I murmured and sighed.

"Gwaenchana Era-ssi?" I looked around and saw Kayden. What is he doing in here?

"Ka-Kayden sun-sunbaenim!" I bowed in front of him. Wow, he's your sunbae now huh? Funny. It felt so weird calling him sunbae! Ah! And why is he here?

"Are you okay?" he asked. I just nodded and smiled a bit. Why is he asking?

"I'm good sunbae, I better go now, I still have vocal lessons later." I bow down again and was about to leave when he started talking again.

"I'm sorry," I heard him said. I looked at him confuse. Why is he sorry now?

"Waeyo?"

"Nothing, good luck on your lessons." he said using his cold voice. And now he's cold? Tss! Atttitude!

But why did he said sorry? Does he remember me and he was just acting all up? Or aish Era! Focus now on your training okay?
