"Alright then," he said, leaning back slightly in his chair. "Show me what you've got, Ms. Orszebet. Start whenever you're ready."
"Okay, let me take off my coat first," I said.
As soon as I removed my coat, I revealed a high-school uniform underneath. The uniform looked a little worn since I was wearing Helcia's old one, but since both the blazer and skirt were black, it didn't look too bad.
I chose to wear it because I wanted to really feel like a high school student, someone who was still young, foolish, and prone to making mistakes, like falling for the wrong boy.
The judges looked a little surprised when I showed up in a high-school uniform, but they didn't say anything since it wasn't against the rules. Besides, it wasn't unusual for actresses to bring props to an audition.
Still, it was pretty rare for a rookie to do that. Most beginners didn't really understand how the audition process worked yet, and honestly, many were too shy to try something that bold.
