[COMPLETED] Four Pillars of GMM: Krist-Singto, Off-Gun, Tay-New, Bright-Win on their 2-weeks LOL workshop. Little did they know the supposedly tiring-but-fun getaway would turn into one hell of catastrophe. (Chiang Mai, early 2021)
"You might think...
"Okay, day two. Be nice, guys." Off encouraged his fellow actors as Tha once again had them handing their phones in a box.
"We've got this!" Tay pumped his fist.
"Woohoo!" Krist supported his two phis.
"Settle down, guys. Now, are we ready for the second secret?" Tha cut in.
A collective 'yes' rose from the eight actors.
"Okay, here goes: he suffers from adult ADHD."
"Well, that's an easy one." Off said right away. "He makes sure everyone that works with him knows, after all."
"Guilty as charged." Tay grinned lightly. He explained anyway, "Well, as my pet said, nothing to explain really. It might be heredity. Might be because of my hectic life. I don't think too much about it and it's not severe either. I just can't seem to concentrate long enough on one thing."
"And very talkative at times." New added between his smiles. The others laughed at the truth of his words.

"That, too. As Peng said, I always make sure everyone's aware before working with me. If anything, I just don't want my condition to offend anybody. I've also learned to always make a reminder in my phone for just about everything. And the managers and staffs, they've been nothing but very helpful and supportive, really."
A short silence followed his speech before Krist applauded loudly. "Well said, Phi!" Before long, the others followed suit, as Gun pulled Tay into an embrace.
"Oh, here we go again ...." Off sighed with amused face as the others, except for him and Tha, piled into group hug.
"Hey, what say we play another game right now? I honestly can take another secret revealed." Tay grinned widely as his huggers dispersed, impatient to end the game. "Can we, P'Tha?"
"Sure." Tha answered calmly.
"Be careful what you wish for, Phi." Krist warned him, but then added, "I'm in if everyone else is."
Off looked around, made sure he found consent in everyone's eyes before saying, "Okay, P'Tha. Hit us with the third secret."
Tha nodded. "As you wish. We're getting serious from this point onward, though, so be ready. Alright, for the third secret: he's a homophobe."
Win almost shouted as he hastily corrected, eyes shooting desperate looks at Gun, "F-for the record, it's in its literal meaning! It's a phobia, Phi! A fear, not disgust! That means, I, I—"
"Win. Breathe." Bright patted his nong's shoulder in attempt to calm him down. "Slowly, now."
Gun smiled genuinely and reached out to squeeze the tall junior's arm. "Yeah, calm down. It's okay, hey. You're not the first, and definitely not going to be the last either."
