"What do you mean 'i need to confirm Stray Kids' appearance on the show?' No one from JYP Entertainment will ever make an appearance on that show!" He said as he slammed his hand on the table, the mug filled with scowling contents shaking profusely and eventually spilling.

It's been at least 36 hours since the entire interview ended, the Entertainments' phone ringing off the hook; all asking the same question.

How did you manage to find such incredible people?

Yet, this one call, in particular, called to make sure what was scheduled, still would be in hopes of putting such events past them.

When such prepositions were made though, PD-nim was entirely furious. More so about how the interviewer tried to shine his new group in a bad light and they tried to throw it under the rug.

He's currently listening to their pleads of reasoning, getting more and more aggravated as they continue to speak. Not particularly knowing whether it was because of the poor excuses and empty promises, or rather because the person on the phone had an annoyingly high pitched voice. Either way, he was aggravated.

"You know what? Just shut up, please. Your voice is quite annoying. I don't care if the owner of your company becomes our new president and makes it law that all of my idols come on the show, no one else is going to be a guest. Good day." And with that, he hung up the phone.

He sat there in his amazingly comfortable office chair of power and sighed. Taking off his ugly rectangular glasses and rubbing his eyes. Or he could be pinching his nose. It's kind of hard to differentiate at this angle. ANYWAYS.

He slouched a bit, thinking heavily about the interview in its entirety. As a result of that, he was planning to pick up the phone and use all of his status and authority to make that interviewer's life a living hell.

Yes, Mr. Park knew that Reina wasn't really ideal to the practical Korean beauty standards, and he most certainly knows what they do to idols when they're not. But to him, Reina was perfect the way she is. She didn't need to bleach her skin and go on months and months worth of strict diets. To him, she was beautiful, inside and out. With a powerfully soulful, and enchanting voice.

The more he just sat and thought, the more he drifted away from the world, until a knock was heard, of course.

"Come in" He absentmindedly called out, not even checking the monitor to see who it was.

"Hello Mr. Park." The young lady said bowing, with a genuine smile on her face as she stood straight.

This lady brought his mood up in an instant. Causing the quite old CEO to plaster a smile on his face and offer her a seat.

"Oh, Reina." He said, a bit surprised, yet still happy. "It's been a while." He watched as she smiled a bit more, the deep dimple on her right cheek now displaying perfectly as her distinctive vanilla scent travels the room. He watches as her emerald eyes beam brightly, as she took her seat.

If I was truly the craziest man on Earth, who would I set her up with?

"How have you been? You know, after the entire interview thing?" He asked, once he saw how she settled quickly in the chair and notice sweat trailing down her neck.

She came here straight from practice.

"In all honesty, it took a while for all of us to actually lift our spirits back up, considering that we were actually nervous and partially excited for the interview. But, we all reminded each other that such negative words shouldn't bring us down, if it isn't from us." He smiled at her wise (wise ish? IDEK) words and nodded.
