MEANWHILE OUTSIDE MK’S MANSION**
Video shooting and production were going on.
A woman was talking to the camera. A mic stick was above her head as spoke.
“Viewers!! Welcome live to the the popular kiddies show in seoul, Sesame Street!! It’s Woo hee, once again on your screen! I’m sure many tuned in because we have a big and wonderful guest today,,, Malcolm Keepers!!” The host said, and the kids around her, clapped and screamed, happily.
“Guess what??? Right now, we’re close to none other than MK’s mansion. Yes! We’re here to surprise him. We’ll be moving him via our car too which will be heading to our filming location. We’re all excited, right now. Kids, are you happy??” Woo hee asked
“Yeeeesssss!!!” They all screamed.
“Since, we’re here, kids. We’ll be needing a volunteer to knock on MK’s special door”
“Me!!! Me!!! Unnie, Meeeeeeee!!!” They screamed, simultaneously.
“All the kids wanna knock but for the sake of respect and decency, only 1 kid is needed…”
“Awwwwnnnn” They Mõ@ned out, sadly.
“To get this lucky 1 kid, We’re gonna play a game, like we usually do. Are we ready, kids!!” Woo Hee asked the 10 kids, 5 boys and girls respectively.
“Yes!!” They shouted.
“Make a circle!” She ordered and they obeyed.
“Let’s play the name game. We ready??” She asked.
“Yes” They replied, nodding.
Woo hee started;
“Names of animals! No repeat! No pause! No stutter! Names of animals!! Names of animals are Lion-
“Tiger!”
“Hyena!”
“Cheetah!”
“Leopard”
“Leo- I mean, wolf”
“I’m sorry, Jack. But you’re out” Woo hee shook her head.
Jack inhaled deeply and moved out of the line, relunctantly.
“Let’s start once more…
MINUTES LATER**
“And the winner is Vivian!” Woo hee smiled and everyone clapped.
“Vivian, please, come closer to knock on the one and only MK’s door. Kids, make way for her”
While clapping, their made way for her.
Vivian smiled widely as she came closer. She folded her fist, against the door and slowly moved it forward.

Malcolm was sitting on his bed, while Ariana was on her feet, knotting his neck tie, carefully around his collar.
Malcolm looked up.
“I’m not done” She pouted.
Malcolm looked at her pouted lips and mashed up memories of that night came running into his head.
“That lips…looks familiar” He thought, still looking at it.
“Why are you staring at me? Is there something on my face?” She asked, touching it.
He swallowed hard, and blinked his eyes away.
“Ariana,,, hurry” He told her.
“Huh?”
“I might lose my mind if you don’t hurry up” He took his eyes to her.
Ariana eyes ran nervously running around his face. She was just numb. But her hands were still on his neck tie.
Malcolm breathed.
“You just don’t listen” He whispered and pulled her down to his thighs.
Ariana’s body shivered, slightly. She looked at him, but her shy eyes couldn’t take it for so long so she quickly took it down, to his neck tie.
She gulped nothing down her throat when she felt his arms around her waist.
He slowly moved his face to hers, but when he saw her face wasn’t into his, he took her hands away from his tie and made her coil her arms around his broad shoulders.
She looked at him, briefly and quickly took her eyes away, again.
Malcolm took her face up to his, by pulling iher chin, with just a finger.
Ariana now had no choice but to just watch him.
He was coming closer, with his eyes half closed.
Ariana blinked and gently shut her eyes too.
As their lips were about to crash, they heard a loud knock. This shocked them and brought them back to their senses.
Ariana stood up quickly and Malcolm looked away. He exhaled.
“I’m sorry about-
“I’ll go get that” She cut in, and ran off. She was very nervous.
She went to the door and opened it.
“At least!!! MK!!! Yipeee!!!” Woo Hee smiled.
“Surpri- The kids stopped, halfway. All the glitters they spread, were all over.
“But…Unnie. This isn’t MK” Vivian muttered.
“Huh?” Woo Hee muttered, and turned around.
“Who’s this?? She apparently came out from MK’s mansion. Who are you?? She’s quite strange. She isn’t a family member either. Who are you?? What were you doing in there?? Please, look at my the camera and explain yourself to the whole world” Woo Hee gestured.
Arian was literally shaking. She looked at the cameras which took pictures and zoomed in vdeos of her.
They came closer to her too.
“What’s going on?” She muttered.
“Who are you??? The whole world is watching and would like to hear. We’re anxious!”
Many eyes were on her. The crews and kids too.
Ariana was trembling.
“What to do? Please, Mister…Help me” She sad, within.
Malcolm suddenly came out and placed his arm around her shoulders.
“OMG!! What’s happening!!” They exclaimed.
Malcolm had no choice. Not that he really wanted to do it too.
“Cameras off! She’s my girlfriend!” He declared, and everyone screamed.
The cameras even got to more work.
“Hold hands!!” One of the video production crews said.
“Smile!!” Another added.
“We’re so f*cked up” They both thought as they did so, facing the camera.
