"Where's this? Mila will be my rival in this competition. The challenge will be even tougher because Mila is my enemy. He hates me because Clay defends me more than he. Mila's voice to my knowledge is also quite good but her guitar playing is good anyway it could be her strength. With Mila here, my struggle will be even harder." Shae's mind spoke long while looking in wonder at Mila.

The short time of day has come. Today is indeed the first day all contestants have their quarantine period. This afternoon, all the contestants were escorted by a housewife named Bu Hesti to their respective rooms. Each room contains a room with a large size containing three beds neatly lined up inside.
Shae is placed in the same room as Mila.
There was one more participant placed in the same room as Mila and Shae. Her name is Ambar, a belo-eyed girl with brownish blonde hair. The color of his voice sounds so strong that Ambar's voice is easily recognized when he is singing.
"The three of you stay and sleep in this room. Remember, every 10pm you have to sleep. Health is number one for race participants like you!" make a firm statement to Ms. Hesti in front of Shae, Mila, and Ambar.
"Well Mrs Hesti." answered the three of them compactly.
Then Ms. Hesti came out of their room. Mila walked in a sneaking style towards the peek door of the Hesti maam who was stepping away. If that housewife had already disappeared from his sight, Mila would have directly oppressed Shae this time as well. Shae was not surprised by Mila's attitude, Shae knew what would happen next.
"Hi? Hello, yeah?" ambar said kindly to Shae.
Ambar invites Shae to shake hands, the two of them throwing smiles at each other.
"Greetings too." replied Shae kindly.
Shae was happy that the other roommate was a kind and friendly person like Ambar. Although the other one was the one who hated him was Mila.
After she was gone from Mila's sight, Mila rushed to close the door and then Mila looked up at Shae. Shae realized she was being stared at with hatred by Mila. Ambar was astonished by Mila's dislike of Shae. But Ambar still wants to meet Mila. Ambar walked in front of Mila.
"Hi, greetings? I'm Ambar. You?"
"Don't be so familiar! You are just as rich as he is! Both rotten and muna!" mila said viciously while pointing rudely at Shae.
Shae would not stay silent when she was being so ridiculed. Shae moves in front of Mila and Shae holds Mila's hand. Shae twists Mila's hand as a lesson for Mila so that Mila doesn't behave like that anymore.
"Stop my ugly-ugly! Now is not the time to vilify each other! Now is the time to fight for our names because we are standing here not to oppress others." said Shae sage with a very serious look.
Mila brushed aside Shae's powerful handrails. Mila did not accept her hand being twisted by Shae because it had just caused pain in the area of her arm. Mila replies to Shae by grabbing Shae's hair with a strong enough jubilee.
"Sufficiently stop!" ambar screams in panic and Ambar helps Shae by kicking Mila's stomach until Mila slumped to the floor.
Mila looked at Shae and Ambar with hateful gazes. On the other hand even though Shae felt displeased with Mila's rude attitude, Shae stretched out one of her hands for Mila to reach or could be called Shae wanted to help Mila stand up. But Mila was unwilling and brushed it off arrogantly. Mila stood up slowly and then Mila put her suitcase near the wardrobe.
"Shae, you're okay, right? Bad luck to both of us rooming together bar chicks rich she's!" said Ambar annoyed while staring intently at Mila who was standing near the closet.
Mila did not accept to be said like that by Ambar, then Mila pointed at Ambar's face with a nyalang look.
"Find out something! Want me to abisin you right now, huh!?" mila is very emotional.
"Gue is never afraid of you!" reply Ambar dare.
Ambar will come forward to fight Mila but Shae hastily holds Ambar's arm firmly.
"Have not been tolerated, meningan we focus on the same competition. We sharpen ourselves each because our purpose is not to find a commotion, but to fight to make our names and fight to become a new star in the world of Indonesian pop music." said Shae wisely then Ambar undoes his intention to fight with Mila.
"Based on the pretentious chick iye lo all!" sindir Mila, furious to Shae and Ambar.

Short time all contestants will soon get a schedule of performances and also the division of their respective groups. It will be announced as 30 contestants perform at the three-day introductory concert live on KM-TV on Wednesday at 20:00 WIB.
From now on Shae felt he had to prepare a prime physical condition because health was the most important thing in order to show his best appearance.
Almost every morning to 30 contestants always do sports activities outside the dormitory. Whether running in the morning, push-ups, and so on. The health of the contestants was highly noticed by the event organizers.
The IMPC Academy competition rating is always good every season and this is the tenth season of the competition held after the previous year through the IMPC Academy competition which has managed to score the champion named Tasya Putri Anandita originating from Central Java, now Tasya has successfully become a singer with many popular hits songs in the national music scene.
Even Tasya will be lined up by the TV to be one of the judges who assess the appearance of the contestants.
A short night of introductions to the 30 contestants arrived. Shae was sitting tensely in the make over room of the contestants. Shae tensed up because Shae felt insecure. Shae was not confident as she felt herself to be the least attractive of all the female contestants.
"I admit that I was the least beautiful female contestant. But hopefully the people who witnessed me on the night of the introduction, they will be interested in supporting me not because of my appearance, but because of the quality of my voice." Shae hoped from his heart.
Seriate...
