I walked to the theater hall for a meeting with another theater major about our performance. Yesterday I asked Mr. Han's permission, the head of the theater department to allow us to enroll in a performance at the town hall later, and he agreed. I'm very happy about it.
I walked through the corridor and heard other people talking.
"You know, Raven was weird yesterday"
"You mean?"
"Yesterday while taking night classes in music department, Raven suddenly comes and asks Mrs.Yu to find someone for her."
"Someone?"
"Yes, I didn't hear it that much. But I'm sure he said a woman."
"WOMAN? IT CAN'T BE!"
"Really, I'm not lying."
I sighed a little, wasn't it too early to gossip about others? But hearing their conversation, it seems like Raven is making trouble again?
Ah no, it's too early to accuse him. I didn't even notice their conversation, hehe.
"Good morning Lily!" said Lia who immediately embraced me. As usual, although it was still morning but he was already excited.
"Yes, good morning too" I replied in reply.
"By the way Lily is, what story are we going to show?" ask Lia.
"I've made some stories, we'll vote for him with the other members at the meeting" I replied.
"Oh well, I can't wait. But I hope we choose a story with a property that stands out enough, so that our team is considered to do a good job" Lia replied.
Yeah, Lia's a theater major, she goes into the artistic department, and takes care of the property, while I'm in the acting writing, Art Research, and Directing department. But sometimes I play side characters or things.
...

...
When we arrived at the theater hall, we immediately started a meeting with other members, after choosing the story we began to discuss who will play who.
"Am I the only one who thinks Lily's fit to play the main character?" chirps Hanna, one of the directing members.
"I also thought that way, the depiction of her character is very exactly like Lily" the other replied.
"Eh? Is that so?" I'm not sure of their words. I made this story, could it be that I accidentally described a main character like me?
"Yes, right." replied the other member agreed.
"But Lily never played the main character, even just playing a side character" said Lia. He was right, all this time I just wrote stories, wrote dialogues, and played a few side characters.
"What if you vote?" Mr. Han suddenly entered the room followed by Mrs.Yu and Raven. Other members agreed with Mr. Han's input.
"Mr.Han, Mrs.Yu, what brought you here?" ask me to approach them.
"For now continue your meeting, we will wait in my room" replied Mr. Han then went out followed by Mrs.Yu while Raven just kept quiet while looking around the room.
"All right, so what about the vote?" ask Raven suddenly. Without waiting for an answer, Raven immediately picked up the voting paper I was holding.
"Oh, were you chosen as the main character? Good, now the meeting's over, right?" ask Raven. I tried to hold back my anger over his disrespectful behavior. The other members must be uncomfortable.
I closed the meeting and allowed the members to go to their classes, as did Lia. After that I went to Mr. Han and Mrs.Yu.
Without further ado Mrs.Yu immediately explained his purpose.
"Look, Raven has to make a song, and can Lily help her?" Mrs.yu clear.
"Help?" my many.
"True, we need Lily's son as inspiration to make her song, she's going to take a show so please help Lily" she explained gently.
"Huh? The inspiration? I'm sorry, but isn't that a strange request? Sorry, like I can't" I refused. From now on I will be preoccupied with the preparation of our performances, I cannot play around like this.
"Look Lily, please. You can do it, I'll give you perfect grades if you agree to it" said Mr. Han. PERFECT VALUE? WHAT THE FUCK!
"All right, I'll agree" I replied. This way I'll get a perfect score - I mean, Mr. Han even persuaded me, so of course I have to agree.
And there Raven, the person who became the conversation was just sitting on the sofa while playing his cell phone. Substantial.
...
...
...
It was late in the afternoon, and we were practicing reading the dialogue. And at the end there was Raven sitting on the sofa staring at me with a sharp look.
I asked him to leave, but he insisted on staying, no matter what his purpose was. Well, I'll try to ignore it and focus on these papers.
"Lily, for this part I think it would be better to make it a little more dramatic" said Hanna, one of the theater majors.
"Oh, let's see"
...
...
...
After a few hours of reading and memorizing the dialogue, we began to clean up and go home.
"Good work everyone, see you tomorrow" I said.
"Lily, we go first" said Lia went with members of the property, maybe they will discuss the selection of property.
All right, now I'm going home to the dorm. But before that, I think I should do something else.
I sighed and walked towards Raven.
"Raven, Raven wake up! It's late, it's time to go home" I said, shaking her body. I don't know when he fell asleep.
I thought it would take a long time to wake up a Raven, but she woke up. Good thing, that way I can go right away.
