Mistake and Misplaced

(Bang Kieu)
Bang Kieu shut his phone close and put it back inside his pocket. Once again, Minh Tuyet didn't pick up. It's been two days already since last time he's talked to her. Where is she? What's going on? Was she mad at me? What'd I do? Bang Kieu started to think as hundred of questions poped up in his mind. He had an uneasy feeling, and he was worried about his friend. He tried to call her numerous times, and even dropped by her house once, but there was no sight of Minh Tuyet. He didn't dare entering the house for he feared of the paparazzis hiding somewhere on the street, and now he's regretting it.
Bang Kieu started to list all the reasons for her absent but none seemed reasonable enough. He took out his phone and started calling everyone who might have come in contact with her for the past few days.
After an hour of calling, he got nothing. No one knew where she was. No one cared. However, there was LTQ and Marie who didn't pick up their phones. If they, too, knew nothing about Minh Tuyet, then he'll go to the police.
Bang Kieu sank into his chair and closed his eyes, trying to relax. Nothing bad happened, it's all in your head, Bang Kieu told himself, though it was no help. After a long time of trying to calm himself down, he gave up and went outside to get some coffee.
On his way, Marie called.
"Um, she was supposed to be at a show with LTQ and Nhu Loan the night before yesterday. That's all I know." Marie said.
"Did she make it there?"
"Yes."
"Have you talked to her since then?"
"No."
"Well..." Bang Kieu got out of his car and paused as he caught the sight of a familiar black convertible in the parking lot across the street.
"You still there?" Marie asked impatiently.
"Yea. Marie, where was the show?"
"Let me see..."
"Was it at the Reds?"
"Yes! That's the place."
"Thanks. Bye." He hang up and walked across the street, toward the Reds Theater, and toward the black convertible.
Bang Kieu remembered it now. He had offered Minh Tuyet a ride to the place since her limo driver was sick that day but she refused because Marie had ordered her to ride with LTQ. They needed to learn to get along, since from now on they'll be working together a lot. But the truth is, she said, I want to annoy him, just for the fun of it.
Bang Kieu looked inside the car and found a bottle of water, the kind that Minh Tuyet usually drinks. With no doubt, she was in the car. He was afraid that LTQ had done something to her. What a silly idea. He tried to call LTQ again, and to his surprise, a phone nearby went off. The sound came from inside the car. He searched frantically for it, and found it lying under the driver's seat. The miss calls dated all the way back to the night of the show. Apparently, someone had dropped his phone while getting out of the car but never get to come back for it.
----------------------------------------------

It has been a few days since all the contestants joined together to kidnap both Minh Tuyet and fellow contestant Luong Tung Quang. While others regretted it, thinking they were going a little too far, Sunny Luong was one of the few who found the whole experience fun and amusing. One day David Meng decided to allow the contestants to have a peek into Minh Tuyet and LTQ's "hostage-life". He showed them this private small room filled with video monitors, all showing various shots of both Minh Tuyet and Luong Tung Quang trapped in the same room. As they were freaking out and yelling at each other for stupid reasons, everyone else laughed.

David: "They installed hidden security cameras and hidden mics around the room so we can monitor them"

Watching the two bicker at little stupid things and the idiotic things they did had everyone on the ground rolling in laughter. Someone mentioned that watching this, was like watching "The Real World" but instead it's more comedic. Suddenly an idea popped in Sunny's head.
Everyone was finally tired of all the laughing and left to go home. The only people left in the room were Sunny and David. They were cleaning up the room, putting things back to where they were, David took the tapes containing footage of Minh Tuyet and Luong Tung Quang and was about to throw them in a dumpster when Sunny stopped him.

Sunny: Wait, wait, wait! David, what are you doing?
David: Throwing them away, the guys have no use for them and we all saw it already.
Sunny: Yeah but not everyone...
David: What do you mean?
Sunny (smiling): I mean we can make reality show out of it!
David: You mean?
Sunny: Yeah, show it to the public and make a fortune!

David like the idea, he is able to embarrass the stupid pretty boy and ruin his career so he can take his place...shame that Minh Tuyet has to go down with him, he was thinking of having a duet with her when he wins but sacrifices must be made.

David: Yeah you got it!
