"Seollin unnie? Manager Kim told me to inform you that the schedule of HIGHLIGHT'S recording for their comeback interview is at 5pm instead of 4pm. They will also need you to bring 2 sets of outfits for the interview." Mira came into Seollin's room and smiled oddly as she said. "Oh its delayed? I didnt receive any call from the producer though..." Seollin is puzzled by the last minute change in plans but did not doubt Mira as the intern has always been the innocent victim of Hwayoung's bullying. "Erm...Maybe they forgot to call you and saw Manager Kim at the meeting earlier this morning?" Mira finished the sentence and quickly exited the office.

 

"Daeun ah, i need to bring 1 more set of outfits for the interview recording later. Have the laundry shop sent back the ones we sent to them on Tuesday?..Oh they have not? Oh dear, what should I do now?...Ok tell you what, I'll meet you and the guys directly at the recording set alright? I can take cab to the laundry shop and then to the recording studio. I've done their hair and makeup for another recording at 1pm, so I'll just do some quick touch-up when I reach there." Seollin ended the call with Daeun and quickly grab her stuff to head out to the laundry shop which was a 5 minutes cab ride from their company location.

 

To Seollin's dismay, many cabs zoomed past her without stopping. Seollin quickly turned and run down the street as she was familiar with the location of the laundry shop. As she reach the laundry shop, she catches her breath while the shop staff tries to find the outfits. "Seollin-ssi, I think your company staff has picked it up an hour ago. She has placed the company stamp but she didnt write her name properly on the acknowlegement form. I'm so sorry, but maybe you can give your colleague a call to check who has picked it up?" The shop staff's words caught Seollin off guard. "Oh? Somebody took it? Thank you!" Seollin quickly dials back to the stylist department where Hwayoung usually picks up the call.

 

"Seollin ah, what a surprise. Why do you sound so tired? Your poor girl, what's the matter?" Hwayoung's sarcastic tone gets on Seollin's nerves but she knows this is not the right time to argue back to her. "Hwayoung ah, did you happen to pick up HIGHLIGHT's 2nd outfit from the laundry shop just now? The shop staff said that someone from our company collected the outfits from them, nobody informed me but i really need to bring those clothes to their recording at SBS before 5pm. Any idea who has collected them?" Seollin's urgent tone makes Hwayoung smirk on her side of the phone as she twirls a finger around her hair. "Oh I'm not sure. Anyway isnt the recording supposed to be at 4pm. It's already 3.30pm, are you sure the recording is 5pm?..Oh ya i almost forgot to tell you, the producer called 10minutes ago to ask why HIGHLIGHT isnt there yet?"

 

Seollin's eyes widen at Hwayoung's words and she quickly ended the call. "Daeun ah, where are you guys now? Isnt the recording supposed to be 5pm? Mira told me so..." Seollin got flustered as Daeun tried to explain the situation to her. Apparently, Producer Kim was angry now because the members reached late for the preparations and the studio makeup team are rushing their hairstyling and makeup now. Seollin ruffled her hair in frustration, why did Mira lie to her?

 

Seollin ran into the backstage makeup room as soon as she alighted from the cab at SBS entrance and bowed immediately to Producer Kim while trying her best to catch her breath. HIGHLIGHT members tried to give a quick wave or a smile to make her feel better. They knew this is not usually how Seollin plans their schedule. "Seollin-ssi, I know your boys are busy with their schedule
