"Hello, are you calling about my cousin and Min Yoongi?" The voice in the phone sounded both defensive and apprehensive. She knows, you think.

You took a deep breath and started your question.

"Is this Kim Ji-Ho?" you ask. The woman on the other end acknowledges that yes, it is, and you continue.

"Ms. Kim I am calling about a temp worker that arrived on site this morning named Marie Wang. Are you familiar?"

Ms. Kim signed a long time, and you heard the flicker of a lighter in the background and the hiss of a flame. She must be lighting a cigarette? Who still smokes these days?

"What's she done now?" asks Ms. Kim and you begin to tell her your litany of troubles. You can hear the woman on the other end of the phone sigh before she speaks.

"Miss... I'm sorry what was your name again?"

"My name is (Y/N) (L/N) and I am the assistant to Mr. Min for this production." You want to make sure she understands that you have taken over for Marie, or her cousin as it seems, and Ms. Kim is quick to understand.

"Miss (L/N), thank you for your understanding in this matter. Can you advise me on the status on Ms. Wang at the moment?" I glance over at the woman standing next to me. She had briefly wandered back over to the trailer when one of the security team waved a coat at her but she had dutifully come back over to stand next to you and seemed to be coming down off her trip.

You advised Ms. Kim that Marie Wang was standing next to you after security had managed to remove her from the trailer.

You could hear some papers shuffling on the other end of the phone and some typing noises before Ms. Kim spoke again.

"Miss (L/N) I have the contract from HYBE-LA in front of me now. Could I ask a very large favor, and request to speak to my cou...my employee please?" You knew the slip up from cousin to employee wasn't intentional and you felt a small shiver at the thought of the amount of volume your phone was going to receive next.

"Of course, Ms. Kim." You turned to Marie Wang and held out the phone. She stared at it as if it was a poisonous viper. "Miss Wang, Ms. Kim from the Just in Time agency would like to speak with you. Now." And again, you pushed your phone towards Marie Wang.

She hesitantly took it from you and put it up to her ear.

"He...Hello?" she said tentatively into the mouthpiece.

A blast of English, Korean and what you thought might be Chinese, but weren't 100% certain on came out of your phone at was certainly a full volume scream. You said a silent apology to your phone and stepped back to let Marie wince in piece. Between the cold morning and the reaming, she was getting from her cousin, you knew she was nearly done coming down from her trip.

You looked up to see Kyle and his team exit the trailer... without a suitcase. You frowned at Kyle, but he turned to dismiss his guys before heading over to you and didn't see it.

Kyle walked up to stand beside you and you both watched in awe as the volume coming through your phone somehow increased in loudness and frequency. You caught both idiot and pabo multiple times and couldn't really disagree with Ms. Kim's choice of words. On the other hand, her cousin's complete ineptitude had netted you some facetime with Min Yoongi, so you supposed you couldn't be too harsh on the woman in front of you.

Kyle looked down at you and turned to the side slightly.

"(Y/N) we have two problems besides just her and her agency. Number 1, trailer is a loss. It stinks so bad in there, no talent will want to use it but Snoop and his crew, and that's not a thing on this production. And number 2, the amount of pot she's got in there is waaaay over the legal limit. I'm going to have to call in CPD."
