Jean suddenly sneezed in the middle of class.
She rubbed her nose.
Who the hell was talking trash about her?!
“Everyone, I’ve got something to announce”
Lacey stepped up to the podiuin, wearing her usual pleasant smile. Her gaze swept across the classroom. “As you all know, the finals for the Hope Cup are coming up. We’ve been preparing for a long time, but right now…. we’re short on people.”
Lacey was the class arts rep, and the full name of the Hope Cup was-
The Hope Cup National Youth Drama Competition.
It was a major event on the national level. Winning a priz but also a big bonus for college applications,
a prize in the Hope Cup meant not just hefty rewards from the school,
Because of that, nearly every student was eager to join. Tons signed up, hoping to get on stage.
Of course, the competition was brutal. After several intense rounds, most had already been eliminated. But somehow, Lacey had led her class all the way to the finals.
They’d been preparing for their performance for weeks.
“Short on people? Like backstage help: Or do you mean performers?” someone asked right away.
Lacey smiled gently. “We’re short one actor for the stage play.”
That got everyone’s attention. The classroom stirred with excitement.
This was a huge opportunity. If they got lucky and filled that one spot, they’d get to perform in the finals–maybe even snag a prize. And that meant sharing in the glory.
Jean yawned.
The Hope Cup! This wasn’t even a major plotline in the book.
What was the point of transmigrating into a novel if the plot kept tossing her into uncharted territory?
“Lacey, you know I’ve got great stage presence. Want me to take the role?”
Someone raised their hand, volunteering right away.
The others weren’t about to sit back and lose the chance. The room turned chaotic.
“Wait, that actually sounds fun! I want in too!”
“Larry, pick met I’ll play anything. I won’t hold you back.”
