17 Audition (2)

"You just landed your first lead supporting role, Miss Hong." The male actor replied, charming Mina with his deep voice and soft gaze. "Congratulations!"

The male lead actor seemed like he was congratulating Mina whole-heartedly. This person Seo Jaehyun has been a rising actor who started landing lead roles two years ago. He still had to find the project that would lead him to the most significant break in the industry, but experience-wise, he's a great actor.

Mina did not have the time to watch his dramas, though, but maybe, she might have to start monitoring him and every actor and actress in the drama if she did get the role and the PD was not joking with her.

"Um, I apologize if I am asking the same thing again." Mina stood up as she looked at the director's smiling face. Her eyes widened in shock, "Did I get the role I am auditioning for? Did I get Ari's role in this drama?"

The Producing Director chuckled, "Yes, you got the role, Miss Hong. You are pretty, and we think you suited the role perfectly." He continued as he leaned his elbow to the table, "You don't need to be that happy because the screen time for this character is only short."

Mina did a ninety-degree bow as she expressed her respect and gratitude. She was so grateful that she was finally able to land a character that had 'lines' in a drama, "Thank you so much for casting me! I will do my best not to disappoint anyone during filming!"

"You are a refreshing style," The PD replied, but he suddenly became serious. "But you should go now and don't inform anyone that you already got the role. Or else, you would be out. Okay?"

Mina bowed twice before exiting the hall. She tried her best to look grim as other auditionees started to look at her and observe her facial expression.

She heard someone mumbling, "Oh God, she must have failed."

And that's how she knew that her acting was a success.

After all, Mina was an actress! If she could not do just that, then she should just quit being an actress.

Mina came back home happy and contented about the sudden turn of events. Her entertainment company is near her apartment, so she won't worry about commuting too much.

Now that she thought about her entertainment company, how would SW treat her? Will she have a manager who is going to follow her around and manage everything? I mean, she even went to the extreme to sign a devastating contract to that Kim Jeho, accepting everything he does and will do to her as long as it is legal.

The thing is, how would their relationship start tomorrow?

Mina was getting anxious as time went by. She did not know how signing a contract with Kim Jeho change her life. Sure, she already landed a role just by attaching the entertainment agency's name in her resume.

How will she avoid Jeho's requests that are sexually related to her, just like what he did to her at the trial!

She remembered how his wet tongue made her panties wet from extreme pleasure. She did not even want to let him know that she found him manly and attractive at the same time. It just hurts her pride to do so.

Looking at her phone, Mina was shocked that the theatre hall was nearer than she expected and only had to walk 5 km to reach her destination. She can even call her loved one and inform the good news she received, most especially to his/her parents.

Exercise is an excellent way for her to maintain her weight. It will at least take her less than five hours toshe arrives at her apartment. Suddenly, she was reminded of Soojin. The two were close. Mina told her everything she has to know as she treated her like a best friend. It aIt is not like she did not have any other friends aside from her, but their relationship broke apart when they graduated.

As Mina continued to walk with her mask on to protect herself from the fine dust, she did not forget to look at the beautiful scenery at her side. The cherry blossoms hast were by the street, and how she wished how nice it could have been, someone accompanied her walking by the road, gazing at the beautiful cherry blossoms.

Even though she has had boyfriends before, she never got the chance to look at the blooming of the cherry blossoms since most of her ex-boyfriends thought it was too cheesy and cringeworthy. The weather was great, and when she was already half-way through her enjoyable walk, she called her mom.

With earphones plugged into her ears, and her phone was in her purse, she greeted her mom with an enthusiastic tone of voice, "Mom!"

She could hear her mom giggle, in the opposite line, "Daughter, you seem happy! Mind telling me what is the good news?"

"I finally landed a supporting lead role!" Mina responded with excitement as she grinned, "I am so happy!"

"Congratulations, my cutie pie.' Her mom said as she continued with her walk. "I am so proud of you! I hope this can be your first step to break through to the entertainment industry!"

"I hope so too, mom," Mina was becoming emotional as she replied, "Thank you so much for the encouraging words."

"Just remember what I always say to you," Her mom soothed away the stress Mina was experiencing and smiled,

The phone call ended warmly, and Mina continued her walk silently. Finally, when she arrived at her apartment, she received a text message and an email. But she decided to ignore it first and took a shower.

After taking a refreshing shower, she had the time to check her phone's mails.

And she was shocked to see the subject.

RE: Sudden notice of the Changing of Lead Role

Just by seeing that, Mina's heart beat faster than usual, and she got scared about the 'changing' of lead roles. Does that mean she is about to be replaced?
