Script 9: Rehearsals

"Sorry, none of you are my type."

"I hope to God that Kim Minju is a cheerleader at ACE Academy."

"Shut the fuck up."

Jimin smirks, "You wouldn't if she isn't, you don't even reply to her messages."

Chaewon has finally had enough and decided that going to her classroom earlier before her exams even start is a better idea than hanging out with Yu Jimin. She hangs her bag on her shoulder and stands up.

The cheerleader chuckles as Chaewon huffs before leaving.

"Good luck with your girls, Kim!" She hears Jimin shout and Chaewon doesn't turn around, instead, she keeps walking and just throws her middle finger up in the air for Jimin to see. She doesn't miss Jimin's loud laugh before she disappears out of the field.

Rehearsals were what Yunjin always looked forward to back then. Since there wasn't an audience, it was so fun to perform without having to think of what people would say about your performance.

She loved giving her all on the stage even if people weren't there to see it yet. She's been practicing the lines at home ever since Sieun gave her all the copies of the script. She practiced all the lines in front of her bathroom mirror so many times she lost count already.

She would always do it in front of the mirror, she wanted to express her emotions perfectly hence why she needed a mirror to keep a close eye on her expressions. But despite all of that practice and solo hard work, she had yet to know what it would be like to practice with Chaewon one-on-one.

Even if Yunjin was a member before, she never had a role similar to this with Chaewon. She has never even been paired up with anyone in the club in any of their performances before. Though she knows how these things work, she has performed with a partner in a play before but that was back when she was in the States.

As Yunjin stumbles on one of her lines, a loud buzz is heard throughout the auditorium and everyone on stage stops and relaxes. Yunjin sighed and ran her hands through her hair as she rested her hand on her hip, clutching the script in her other hand as she read through it for the nth time.

"Good job, everyone. Let's take a short break." Sieun calls out. She even used a megaphone, "Acting like a real professional director, I see." Yunjin playfully says as she comes down from the stage. The small president smiled at her tight-lipped as she dropped her hand to her side with the megaphone.

"Acting like a certified theater kid, I see." Sieun throws back mockingly and jokingly as Yunjin laughs out loud. Her eyes squinted as she clapped once, crumpling her script further as she did.

She points at Sieun jokingly, "Touche."

"So, how does the stage feel?" Sieun asks and Yunjin snorts, "Feels the same."

"Nervous?" The smaller girl picks up a water bottle from one of the tables on the side of the stage and throws it towards Yunjin. The redhead catches it perfectly with one hand, muttering a soft "Thanks." as she did.

She uncaps the bottle while talking, "No. Not really..." She takes a small sip, "Only slightly. I guess I'm more nervous about what the result would be. I haven't even rehearsed with Chaewon, I've only been rehearsing my lines while Sunoo reads Chaewon's."

Sieun hums, listening carefully. "I'm just saying it definitely would feel different if Chaewon's here rehearsing with me."

The smaller girl smiles up at Yunjin. It was obvious with the way Yunjin was starting to blabber that she was becoming more and more nervous of the thought of Chaewon rehearsing with her.
