Title: Collide

Artist: Howie Day


NARRATOR'S POV

YG Building

Mr. Manoban heard some parts of the commotion outside, not everything because it's not in his nature to eavesdrop on other people's business but with all the yelling that was going on earlier, it was hard to ignore.


He went ahead and exited the restroom when he felt that it's safe to go out then he greeted Manager Kang

"How is it going, Sir?"

"Ahh, not very good Mr. Manoban, Ms. Lee our assistant manager just quit, effective immediately, I guess the pressure finally got to her"

"Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that, is there something or anything I can do to help sir?"

Manager Kang chuckled and thought to himself This man is too pure for his own good

"That's very kind of you Mr. Manoban but unfortunately you cannot help me with my current situation right now, not unless you know someone who has experience as an assistant manager, no criminal background, and not a psycho and is available to start right away"


He then remembered that his daughter was an assistant at the coffee place where she used to work, maybe this is a blessing in disguise for her he thought.


"I do know someone Sir" Mr. Manoban confidently said

"Really? Who?"

"My daughter Lalisa! she currently lost her job because the cafe that she was working at recently closed and filed for bankruptcy, she was an assistant manager there for 2 years and she's a huge fan of Blackpink" Mr. Manoban eagerly answered him.


"Huge fan huh? no offense Mr. Manoban but she's not one of those obsessive fan girls right? because let me tell you some people can get crazy especially when idols are involve"


"No Sir, Just a normal 24 year old girl. She has some college education--studying as a nurse, she was gonna go on her 2nd semester as a 3rd year student but she needed to stop due to financial circumstances, she could really use a job right now so she can continue with it"


"Really? that's good to know then. Alright Mr. Manoban since I've known you for a while now and I know you have a long history here in YG then I'll give your daughter a shot, here's my business card, have her call me early tomorrow so we can discuss the needed requirements"



At this point, Manager Kang is really desperate and it wouldn't hurt to give this "Lalisa" girl a chance since He knows Mr. Manoban has a very good reputation and is loyal to the company.


Blackpink's Single Launch is near, Their World Tour is coming up and he still has a lot of things to take care of with product endorsements,
contract negotiations, etc.

Just thinking about all the things that need to be done is making his head hurt.

"Thank You Sir, I promise you, you won't be disappointed, Have a nice day Sir"

"You too Mr. Manoban"
