Am I really that Lucky?

"Say that again?" I asked in disbelief.

"Got7's Mark Tuan. We think it would be perfect to do a collaboration with him." 

"Why?"

"Stop asking too many questions and learn the piece, will you?" He stood up from where he was sitting and tapped me on my shoulder. "Do the lyrics, too. I have to go, I might miss my plane. See you when I get back." He gave me a hug.

"Whaaattt????? So you're gonna leave me hanging with this?" But he was already running out the door. 

Aaaarrrggghhh..... But wait, shouldn't I be leaping for joy right now? I would be working with Mark.

AAAAAAAAAAAA... That's more like it. 

Mark had been my ultimate bias..well, one of my ultimate biases....one of my dozens of biases...but still...MARK TUAN.... 

I clasped my face. I still couldn't believe it. I wanted to scream and jump and do whatever....AAAAAA.

Buzzzzzz.... my phone vibrated. I ignored it. Let me just savor this moment for one more minute. 

Buzzz....Dang.... "Hello, Boss?" it was the CEO.

"Kris, I believe Yonghwa told you about the plan. I have already talked to JYP and he agreed to this project. I hope you have thought of the lyrics and arrangement of the song cause you would be meeting up with the producer in a week." then he hang up. 

He didn't even let me speak. 

A week, I would need to organize my thoughts and come up with awesome lyrics and arrangement in a week. They expect me to do this in a week. Aside from my busy schedule (since we just debuted) they expect me to be a miracle worker and do this in ONE WEEK.

Well, I wouldn't blame them. I think I spoiled them too much. Even when I was in the Philippines, I have composed some songs for the artists in a few days. That was when I was a student and I had lots of time in my hands. 

How am I gonna pull this off? Just when I thought matters wouldn't get any worse my phone went off again.

"Hello" almost shouting at the phone.

"We have an interview in an hour, where are you?" I looked at my watch and realized I've been in the studio for 4 hours.

"I'm on my way".

I grabbed my things and ran down to the parking lot of the FNC building. 

As I was driving over to where the interview is gonna be held, I felt a rush of emotions run through my veins.

I was nervous that I might not be ready with the song in a week.

I was honored to be trusted by these people who have been in the business for so long.

I was annoyed that I don't get a chance to rest and that I had to go on with the terms set by the company for a year.

But most of all, I was excited to be working with MARK.

My blood rushed to my cheeks and I smiled.

Sarah was tapping her foot with her arms crossed. She had been waiting in front of the building since she called me a few minutes ago. 

"Everyone's there." She looked at me from head to toe. "Do you ever look at the mirror?" She started brushing my hair with her fingers as we walk in the building. 

"You have to freshen up girl", she pulled me in the powder room and started bringing out some stuff from her pouch. "I knew I'd be needing these," pulling out the compact powder and lipstick. 

"I told you many times, you are now an artist. You have to be prepared for anything, anytime." she scolded me and all I could do was nod as she dabbed the powder on my face.

"Sarah", I said with my mouth half closed cause she was applying lipstick on my lips. 

"Huh?" she continued working on my lips. "Stop moving".

"I have to do a collaboration." I peeked through my lashes and I saw her slowly look up to meet my eyes.

"Go on..." she said.

"Yonghwa and the Boss asked me to do a collaboration with Mark." I waited for her reaction.

Her left eyebrow slowly went up. She fixated her eyes to mine as if to make sure I was telling the truth.

After a whole minute, she finally said, "Aren't you the lucky one." Then a worried look came to her face "do the others know? I mean, have you told John and Daniel, yet?"

"I don't know if John knows, well he should, he's the leader. He should know everything. Right?" I started to worry, too.

"Let's talk about it with them later. Now, we have an interview to go to." 

Right!
