Chapter 12

After being fired from Opius Label, Braulia needs to move on and restart fresh. Since it's too late to check out and leave the hotel, she decides that staying one more night isn't going to do her much harm.

However, the newly airing episode of Trash Talk is catching her attention. Polly Burks, her dear friend, promised juicy gossip in the intro. And here it is.

Polly: And now, to conclude this episode, here's some 100% fresh material. I promise, you'll love it!

Braulia: Yeah, I hope so, Polly, because I know that Leslie manipulated the videos and sent those for Very Important Person to try to drag TWICE's reputation down. I guess his and Lenzie's distorted plan failed.

Polly: Here's some uncensored, 100% authentic footage of Middle Point's attacks to several other artists! Some of them are really important, such as Jonas Brothers, Ariana Grande, Little Mix and, guess what?

Polly shows a video of Middle Point breaking into Coachella and attempting to disrupt BLACKPINK's performance.

Polly: Middle Point's leader and vice leader, Lenzie Madeline and Abby Thaller, went crazy and offended Jennie and Lisa! It looks like Lenzie also had some bad words for Jisoo and Rosé.

Braulia: Oh, thank God! Lenzie has a lot of explaining to do, though.

Polly: Let's not also forget that Lenzie Madeline is the one who called Perrie Edwards a slut for dating a footballer! Oh, this is super-hyper-extra fresh material. The production just sent it now. Let's see it together.

Polly shows the video of the brawl at dinner between Middle Point and TWICE, as well as the offensive Instagram posts, focusing on the racial slur on all members and the body shaming on Jihyo, Dahyun and Tzuyu.

Braulia: Bingo!

There's also some exclusive footage of Middle Point planning terrible things against TWICE.

Brittania: Lenzie, what do you think of Little Miss Sunshine?

Amanda: Who? Da-what?

Leiann: Dahyun. And she's nice.

Korinne: Leiann, stop being oblivious. She and the other Misses Almond Eyes are all a bunch of double-dealing bitches! Everyone in Korea is double-faced!

Braulia: (turns the TV off) That's enough. I need to call the girls. (Groans) Oh, what am I thinking? I don't have their numbers. Well, I guess I'll shoot them a DM on Instagram. This is serious.

While Braulia is trying to contact TWICE, Leiann is taking them to a crowded place that looks like a park with a huge skating brink and other hangout places.

Jihyo: What's this place?

Leiann: This is where I used to come to unwind. Well, until Lenzie & Co decided that I'd be better off secluded in the recording studios 24/7.

Mina: That's not fair! I mean, why is Lenzie so obsessed with work?

Nayeon: Maybe she's a perfectionist.

Tzuyu: Or maybe she's just a bossy bitch.

Leiann: Okay, enough talking about them. Let's do something more exciting, shall we?

???: Leiann! Over here!

Jihyo: Someone's calling you, Leiann.

Leiann: I know.

The girls approach a group of four girls who are waving at them and occasionally looking around. One of them is a redhead like Leiann but is taller than her; the second girl is a petite brunette with long hair and a fringe. The third one is an African American, with long curls and large circle earrings.

But the one who catches their attention the most is an Asian girl, looking about five feet eight, with bi-color hair (black on one side, purple on the other one), dark lipstick and a really short black dress. She smirks at Leiann, as if she wants to ask her to introduce her to her new friends.

Leiann: Oh, sorry. I guess we have to do a little round of introductions. (Points at the other redhead) This is Melody Leake. She knows how to throw a blasting party!

Melody: Hi! (Notices TWICE) Leiann, I didn't know you made friends with TWICE. Where did you meet them?

Leiann: Well, I met them at Hob. You know, that place where-

Melody: I know. But shouldn't you be with Lenzie and the others?

Leiann: Well, I- (Blushes)

Jeongyeon: She left Middle Point.

Melody: Wow... That was abrupt.

Nayeon: She made the right choice. I mean, have you ever seen how Lenzie treats them?

Melody: Unfortunately, I'm not surprised.

Leiann: Okay, let's change subject, shall we?

The brunette intervenes, trying to switch the subject to something less gruesome than Middle Point.

????: Hello, I'm Ashlyn Landis. Leiann and I have been friends since middle school.

Mina: Really?

Ashlyn: Hehe. That shouldn't surprise you. I mean, where did you meet?

Nayeon: We all took part in a survival show called Sixteen. Basically, the lucky winners got to be part of TWICE.

Melody: And you got all chosen, I guess.

Leiann: Well, they wouldn't be here if they hadn't been picked.

Melody: Oh, sorry.

Ashlyn: Anyway, I'm so lucky to meet you for the first time, girls. (Turns to the black girl) Right, Lisa?

Lisa: Oh... Sorry, I kind of spaced out. (Turns to Nayeon and extends a hand) My name is Lisa Steed. Leiann and I started making music together six years ago.

Nayeon: (shakes Lisa's hand) Oh, really? Nice to meet you, then.

Lisa: The pleasure is all mine.

Leiann: (points at the Asian girl) Okay, do you know Lee Dae-

Nayeon: (grits her teeth) Lee Daejeong.

Leiann: What? Do you know her?

Momo: She was a trainee at JYP. Well, until she left to chase the American dream!

Daejeong: And I made the right choice, after all. (Smirks) Life is much easier here. No pressures, no stalling if you're not chosen to be part of a group, no bizarre standards, no-

Chaeyoung: Stop gloating!

Daejeong: Or?

Leiann: Okay, girls, let's all take a deep breath. Breathe in, breathe out-

Daejeong: Leiann! I'm not nervous. They are.

Melody: But try to understand, they didn't expect to see you here.

Daejeong: I can't disappear!

Leiann: Okay, again. Breathe in, breathe out-

Dahyun: (takes a breather) I'm feeling a lot better.

Chaeyoung: I'm not. (Points at Daejeong) Especially after seeing her.

Tzuyu: Same.

Sana: She's trouble!

Jeongyeon: Okay, girls, don't you think it's time to stop attacking her? I mean, she's not worse than Middle P-

Ashlyn: Let's try not to talk about those bitches anymore. Why don't we go skating instead?

Dahyun: Oh yeah! At last!

Daejeong: I can show you some moves. (Winks at Nayeon and Jeongyeon, but the former ignores her) Oh, I guess someone doesn't want to take my offer.

Jeongyeon: I'd like to.

Momo: Are you joking?

Jeongyeon: Let's leave all that shit behind, okay? (Heads to the skate brink with Daejeong and Lisa)

Leiann: You don't like Daejeong, right?

Dahyun: Well, it's complicated.

Chaeyoung: I don't.

Ashlyn: Why?

Chaeyoung: She played us some terrible pranks back when we were taking part in Sixteen. She wasn't chosen, though.

Leiann: Did she take it well?

Mina: Yes, but she still felt like pranking us. For example, she spread rumors about Jihyo dating some hot guy-

Jihyo: Can we change subject?

Mina: Oh, she once replaced Sana's hair conditioner with glue. I noticed that before her, but, when I had to tell her, she was literally furious!

Sana: She had it on me since day one!

Melody: Okay, maybe she was an asshole back then, but people change.

Nayeon: I hope so, or else she'll pay for that!

Leiann: But Jeongyeon didn't seem so upset when she said hello.

Momo: Of course. That bitch—I mean, Daejeong—has always been nice to her!

Chaeyoung: She thinks she's the only "tough" girl out there. Instead, the rest of us are all a bunch of cutesy scaredy cats to her!

Ashlyn: Perhaps you should try and talk civilly to Daejeong. As Melody said, people change.

Nayeon: I hope you're right, Ashlyn. (Turns to Leiann) Now, what are we doing?
