"Sorry, but the auditions are over, " The receptionist tells her with a polite tone. "You can try after six months."
Chang Seol places the business card on the desk. "I am here to meet Miss Ahn."
The receptionist gives her a smile when she sees the business card. She picks up the phone and dials a number. After a moment, she speaks in a stiff tone, "Miss Ahn, someone wants to meet you. Her name is Chang Seol."
A pregnant pause.
"I will send her right away." The receptionist puts down the phone and looks at Chang Seol. "Go to the eleventh floor. Miss Ahn will meet you there."
Chang Seol nods and walks toward the elevator. She ignores people's gazes while she wonders why they are staring at her. Did she wear something strange today? She walks into the elevator and presses the floor button. Leaning against the wall, she looks at her reflection.
