Sunday was quiet and 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAJ9verwMxEL
pretty not much the same when you know that your best friend isn't 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAfnvHAlJSvE
talking to you anymore. As much as I would have liked to bring up any 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAUKw9gSySdq
random topic just for Zoey to talk to me, I knew she wouldn't respond or1036Please respect copyright.PENANA4vDXI6t8QI
listen. She wouldn't even stay in the same room with me.1036Please respect copyright.PENANACbqLBRmlbN
Last night, Zoey moved 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAkCrwnNl1aO
out from our room and since we booked the entire floor, she went over to1036Please respect copyright.PENANA76UqxtDJwn
the other room, far away from me. I couldn't blame her though and I 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAs0n2KhVOAo
didn't even try to talk her out of it. No one even bothered to try and 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAqFDKqGFp4O
talk to her either.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAsnm2W8bRT9
And so did Collins, who had no idea what was going on.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAAvEGAwJIfA
It so happened that 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAXEHkrKdZ4d
while Zoey was moving out of our room with some of her personal 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAaU38pvcO6R
belongings, Collins appeared out of the elevator. He had asked her what 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAvRJl42654c
was going on and as usual, when Zoey is upset, she hardly talks to 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAv86QAyRu5J
anyone. When Collins asked the rest of us what was going on, I told him 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA64i2ARp3cm
that Zoey and I had an argument. With that, he didn't ask any more.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAptqS4hOpON
Now, I was sitting 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAO4AxpE1OJY
lazily on the couch in the lounge on a Sunday, trying to see anything 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA9fWVuQGU6O
interesting to watch on YouTube so as to pass time since my brothers had1036Please respect copyright.PENANAMwGVhxYvRN
now taken control of the TV playing Call of Duty. I did enjoy myself 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAt7uEbg6w65
watching k-pop music videos with the likes of BTS, EXO and many others.1036Please respect copyright.PENANA3pISatq49G
I was lying down in a sleeping position, still watching videos when Lee came into the lounge.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAu3V9DgMEKv
"Are you just going to sit there the whole day like a lazy bum?" Lee asked as she came over to me.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAalTxUdgJ7V
"What?" I asked as I removed an earpiece from my ear. I heard her loud and clear even with my earpieces on.1036Please respect copyright.PENANA4MQ3uQ84jL
"You heard me," said Lee looking down on me, with an annoying look on her face. "Are you going to sit here the whole day?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAUP4FD4xqOA
"Uh, ya," I nodded my head and put the earpiece back in my ear.1036Please respect copyright.PENANANbef644pMH
"Get up, let's go," said Lee as she pushed my legs and they dropped from the couch to the floor.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAabiQmBbCUO
"Lee!" I whined, putting1036Please respect copyright.PENANA99H5qC4SOu
my feet back up on the couch. Daniel and Mike who were on the floor 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAITbYZ4gR9x
facing the TV, turned to look at Lee and I, pausing their game.1036Please respect copyright.PENANACQAB6tAOlJ
"This isn't like you, Sam," said Lee, dropping my feet again. "You need to go out and have fun. It's Sunday."1036Please respect copyright.PENANANwWAbsMxcH
"But I want to be here and watch videos on YouTube," I said as I sat upright.1036Please respect copyright.PENANArO1mYnUMqx
"No buts, Sam. We're going out whether you like it or not."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAbEG6YlzYdo
"Why? I want to stay here."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAdQ0Tl1ymD3
"I need to go and shop 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAo0FElkDeK5
for a few things and I think it will do you a lot of good too. Not after1036Please respect copyright.PENANA8ESZtTjuZy
what happened yesterday. I can tell you need a distraction."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAnRaW2g0oy9
"But watching YouTube 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAUmHZ5FRNIS
videos is the perfect distraction if you ask me. Besides, you should 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAivx5ZFS3DH
check out these other k-pop artists and groups. They are so awesome."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA2yHfy4VVXU
Lee turned to my brothers who still had their eyes on us the entire time. "Help me out here, guys. What should I do?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAZ6FRg06VVs
"I think Lee is right, 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAUQAlvHubi4
Sam," said Daniel. "We all aren't busy today and you usually like going 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAz8DS99ht9L
out on Sundays like you do back home."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAln3NTK3MAJ
"But what's wrong with staying here for a while and do nothing but watch videos?" I asked, looking at my brothers.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAWmEZDT72Yn
"I know you're a fan of 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAlViginMYUM
YouTube but the Sam I know wouldn't be here lazing around after what 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAA9IeZPlZ8y
happened with G-Dragon and Zoey," said Mike.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAzrjfHoGmiW
"So, what you're trying to say is that I've to try and figure out what to do with those two?" I asked.1036Please respect copyright.PENANASJZO6FIPaJ
"Well, that's what 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAO9rUBPAo2R
you're good at," said Daniel. "You did say you were going to try and 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAGNmDk858oC
resolve things with Zoey. You usually come up with ideas to do so."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAK1RzHTnRQi
"But that's when I decide to go out somewhere and think."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAh3Kls8eZje
"That's what we are 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAfQgDAEH39s
telling you, Sam. Start thinking things out or else at the end of it 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAt6E4wLBCf6
all, we won't be able to make the music video. Not with Zoey acting like1036Please respect copyright.PENANAMNERwFX0aN
the goddess of wrath and G-Dragon still mad at you."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAIK3CGxoJWz
Daniel's right. I had to1036Please respect copyright.PENANAZsytPsKXd9
figure out what to do with those two and me sitting here wasn't going 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAKcSQS5wfWd
to solve anything. But how could I tell them that there were now other 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAv6d6DbYe1h
problems to deal with? Like Zoey and Derrick's brother for example?1036Please respect copyright.PENANAev4fE5SHtX
Unlike the others, Lee 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAVQMR8P26Ge
was the only person whom I told about what happened when I left YG 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAPXnetE2WQM
yesterday to meet with Derrick who told me what had been going on with 1036Please respect copyright.PENANARPid7EIl6k
Zoey and his brother. And right now, dealing with Derrick's brother was 1036Please respect copyright.PENANASNAHXU526a
going to be a lot tougher than trying to sort things out with G-Dragon 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAyPf4FaqVDg
and Zoey together.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAWf8keyJGXo
I really wanted to tell 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA9F3T5nsRD5
these guys what was going on. Besides, they were there with Zoey in 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAOLDnK021GC
Paris and they might have some clue as to what was really going on. But I1036Please respect copyright.PENANAPhcv42fv3m
didn't want to worry them. Not yet, at least. I had already put them 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAMXicFHIsoP
through a lot because of my secrets and I was doing so all over again. 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAvzSaR4qffw
When was I ever going to change?1036Please respect copyright.PENANAoMUFRYBh8F
"Okay, I'll go," I said as I stood up. "You're right. I have to think of something, and fast."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAwmp4yWqCaz
"Great," said Lee. "Now, go get your shoes. Collins isn't around so we can stay out for as long as we want."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA9P1Frx3Vmm
"Has anyone seen Christine?" Daniel asked.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAYOUmHVgWAy
"She is with Zoey," said Mike, rolling his eyes as he mentioned Zoey's name. "They are probably in the room talking."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAH645fOqKZx
"Hopefully, Christine would be able to convince Zoey to forgive me," I said.1036Please respect copyright.PENANADDK8zBeYuQ
Lee, Mike and Daniel 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAjvKOqYOaVP
shook their heads and muttered out words of disapproval. I didn't say 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAyEtNxSyb0E
anything, as I also shook my head. I went out of the lounge, straight to1036Please respect copyright.PENANAaFcTbyDIHW
my room to get my shoes.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAQbhJJr0hHi
After I wore my white 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAIHisFubP7k
pumps to match with my white jeans and purple tank top, I took my purse 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAkAaFcZ4R6l
and went to Christine's room. I made sure to knock first, and when 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAErouFtD82o
Christine called from inside to come in, I slowly opened the door. I 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA0gTBMgJo3T
didn't go in the room as I saw Christine and Zoey on the bed facing each1036Please respect copyright.PENANA32tQAYRpMM
other. They were quiet when they saw me at the door.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAzg8vEplm16
"Hey," I said. Zoey looked away, ignoring me. "Lee and I will be going out. I just wanted to let you know."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAzQwUnaLGnJ
"Okay," said Christine. "Have fun."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAs6k6iUsfzt
I nodded my head and quickly closed the door. It was still clear that Zoey didn't want to talk to me.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAYrOY4zA0l7
I walked down the hall and back to the lounge where Lee was waiting for me.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAm35pySlgwp
"We can go, now," I told her.1036Please respect copyright.PENANATVRsCGfSam
"Alright, see you guys," said Lee as she turned to the boys.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAEkXmyZQVMN
"Bye," said Mike, his eyes glued to the TV screen and his fingers continually working on the control buttons on the game pad.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAnNEFVVgyB7
"Have fun, Sam," said Daniel as he managed to look at me and smile.1036Please respect copyright.PENANADhCE2OPhbh
I smiled back at him. 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAkRrgd9R6kK
Then Lee and I took off for the elevator. When we reached the ground 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAPiWwLQOrcX
floor, the SUV was waiting for us as usual. And there were two body 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA6ivsTT7FNJ
guards in the other SUV.1036Please respect copyright.PENANA8tHyOhJlWU
"Looks like you have everything planned out for the day," I said as I entered the car and Lee followed.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAiNRpwIadC7
"Well, someone had to bring you back to reality and focus on what's really important," said Lee, as she closed the door.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAbFVPHElUOV
"If you mean Zoey and G-Dragon, I don't know what to do anymore."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAt8twvjzU6l
The car's engine roared to life and the car drove out for the hotel premises with other car following behind us.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAeDV2b4Ql5L
"So, where are we going?" I asked.1036Please respect copyright.PENANARqWbqqbPfS
"To the mall," Lee answered.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAFwhKlOztwJ
"How will the mall help me figure things out?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANACurXAcGY6O
"What's wrong with the 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAPtzzaiE4mk
mall? Just trying to distract yourself will help you out. Sometimes the 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAOoz9uISv1v
best plans just come out of the blue."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA71mE4OvvyN
"I should have just stayed behind and continued watching videos."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA8Q800sof3u
"And waste the day away? No way."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAH4DTQDyFdB
"Come on, Lee. Right now, I have no idea what to do and watching videos was the perfect way to distract myself."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAyQTr5G6la7
"I know. I had to get you away from there so that we can talk about Derrick's brother."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAWNp7GL0afD
"And what am I going to do with him? Unless I find out what Zoey's hiding, I can't come up with anything."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA6FpeuWZfiY
"Didn't you check around the room for any clues?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAnz7PtzO0X4
"No. Zoey might have 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAXH13KnmnJ2
moved some of her stuff out of the room, but if she was hiding 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAxhXtJmYkZb
something, she isn't dumb enough to leave it behind. I checked last 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAogA3MMOlxb
night when she moved out and I couldn't find anything."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAMjtDHdR0CD
"Well that's a bummer. What do you think she's hiding?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANA8mq2mwG0Kz
"I don't know. But the way Derrick described his brother, I'm expecting it's something serious."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA5iichOj2iq
"Are you sure you checked everywhere?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAMuHDPWBzxx
"The closet, her suitcase and even under the bed. There is nothing."1036Please respect copyright.PENANABu9Sk89qSL
Lee remained quiet and as for me, I went to looking at the windshield in front of me, looking down the streets of Seoul.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAQDhvNXKLMS
"I don't know what to do1036Please respect copyright.PENANA3DtSMTCPpe
anymore," I said, my eyes still on the road. "Now that I know that Zoey1036Please respect copyright.PENANABjiihQimyx
might be in trouble, I can't just sit by and watch quietly. I know Zoey1036Please respect copyright.PENANAGvNL8ZQ4Xx
doesn't like to admit she is in trouble, but I have to help her out 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAPtmpqMGvKM
somehow."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAQL1Xl5DRXH
"But we can't do this alone, you know? At some point, we will have to involve the others too."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAkZbktQGSbV
"True. And I'll also have to ask the others their side of the story with what happened in Paris."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAxDPX6Jn6rP
"Mmm. Acting a true detective. Trying to put one piece of a puzzle together with another."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAlQzRJpeEKG
I folded my arms as I 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAhVjyWaeq3R
leaned back further in my seat, the wheels of my mind starting to work 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAZq1Fci0Y4S
but I couldn't figure out what to do. I had too many problems to deal 1036Please respect copyright.PENANACYrGhfgG8O
with and it was driving me nuts. I wonder why I wasn't running around 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA53SzqkyqUh
the street with a crazy hairdo at this point.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAc5xTW9w4Ui
We soon reached the mall1036Please respect copyright.PENANA69QTHV157h
and we came out of the car, heading towards the building with our two 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAwS50allAJf
body guards behind us. I carried my shades with me this time and I wore 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA371dFEb8Hr
them as we went in the mall. I could already feel eyes on me and see 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA6dWZLNNlMX
phones coming out out of people's pockets as we passed. I was glad that 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA2Ho1PCdcx6
the bodyguards were around.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAAtAg7mFONT
Lee and I first went 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAcOrZl8YR6X
shopping for clothes. We even tried out some of them. I had to admit, 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAoSzJivvwFV
shopping and trying out new clothes made me forget about some things for1036Please respect copyright.PENANAA0zuld7hYu
a while. I was having fun.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAr16XUMpZ8E
And when it came to the fans, some were brave enough to go past the guards and come take photos with me and take autographs.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAsdTr8ZnK5m
Lee and I soon came out 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAYqWi5JpfZw
of a shoe store after buying some expensive shoes. I bet I bought more 1036Please respect copyright.PENANABKJkiaRoLm
clothes than shoes and Lee was vice versa. We even managed to buy a few 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAcmyQt0QY1T
things for the others as well. The bodyguards had to help us out with 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAjEKyXYg26l
our bags because we bought way too much.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAsoLG4HCDLI
When we walked out of 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA4dyGGEGTd3
the store, Lee suggested that we go down to the food court and get 1036Please respect copyright.PENANASW77ihhNyB
ourselves something to eat. We were above the ground floor and just as 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAO45ipLnpBp
we were about to take the glass elevator, I noticed that opposite the 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA65vz80oo2o
elevator was a toy store. I looked at the toys shown on display.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAMSAr68JdEM
"Hey, what are you looking at?" Lee asked as she noticed that I had stopped.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAyWbyeXPUth
I couldn't answer Lee. I1036Please respect copyright.PENANAArqsES1okH
also didn't know why I was staring at the toys on display. Something 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAnDz3jRPxgt
had drawn me to this store and I wondered what it was.1036Please respect copyright.PENANABx93NvRXR4
"Hello! Earth to Sam!" Lee's fingers snapped in front of me.1036Please respect copyright.PENANA2Wm5VqBkAI
"Huh?" I turned to look at Lee.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAjQVBnQ5lyI
"What's wrong? What are you looking at?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANA1ypmEVcgpW
"I..." I went back to looking at the toys on the glass display. "I don't know."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAa5RiDpidGM
"You don't know? You're staring at those toys like you want to buy them all."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAyVUKjSWaO2
"I'm not a child, Lee." I rolled my eyes at her.1036Please respect copyright.PENANApBRQXn5hEi
"Then why are you looking at those toys like that?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANANJc3GGuS6u
"I...I..." I scratched my head. This was weird even for me too.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAchlJvkyqJW
I looked at each and 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAwnXApMOjlu
every single toy on display till my eyes rested on a huge brown teddy 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA7bu3GremBQ
bear. I looked at it for a while until my mind clicked.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAAWgKEE11eU
"Teddy," I said, looking at Lee.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAxdi2siq7pw
"What?" Lee looked 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA5W9G1kqEmT
really confused and I bet in her mind she was obviously thinking that I 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA3ENbWWwmnk
was crazy. "You want a teddy bear? But you already have a stuffed 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAIVM70pPOpQ
panda."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA4496Qh5hdS
"No, not that. Mr Teddy. The little teddy bear back at the hotel."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAzkRuDWVprC
"Ya? What's wrong with it?" Lee asked as she shrugged.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAINVFLVtuOZ
"Derrick's brother sent 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA6c5gznFz8j
it to us that day, remember?" I hit my head in frustration. "Gosh! I 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAnBORHiDsfE
should have asked Derrick if he knew that his brother sent us that teddy1036Please respect copyright.PENANAz7kaGU9tPP
bear."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAcWRC0I7uZc
"But why are you so concerned about it? It's just a teddy bear."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAokSx8Lx8RD
"Ya, sent by Derrick's evil brother. That has to count for something, right?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAIRYG0hJVTJ
"I don't get it though."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAtqCMzXhn5i
Lee shook her head as she stared at the toys on display. "Why are you 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAMgNqsdFW6Y
so concerned about that small teddy?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANA4GLc0Cbueo
"That small teddy might hold the one thing we are looking for."1036Please respect copyright.PENANArXrNRXlmX0
***1036Please respect copyright.PENANAqPkpZJtLkc
Zoey's P.O.V1036Please respect copyright.PENANAKMxaL2NCwt
"I'm tired of hearing the same thing over and over again," I said as I rubbed my forehead in frustration.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAtwKDCjq1gu
"You know I'm not going to quit, Zoey," said Christine as she looked at me with a stern look.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAiiqCazsjpr
"Look, this has hurt and disturbed me a lot. And when I need someone to talk to, you're not supporting me at all."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAaAAJQrvR8J
"Because I know you're wrong. And you're treating Sam so unfairly."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAQQiWh6gME2
"How am I treating her unfairly?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAU2uRhDJKMn
"You moved out of the 1036Please respect copyright.PENANADnkKQW1EXf
room, taking some of your belongings with you. I know you're upset with 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAoVHTpI6OPV
Sam, but doing that was not right. You're acting as if she is some kind 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAsgCfrHu8mn
of alien or something."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAWvIIO7RR4O
I tilted my head to the side. "Well, if you put it that way, calling her an alien isn't that bad."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAAw5mD04P8p
In a quick flash, a 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA4fGb39W0pl
pillow landed on the side of my face with so much force, that I fell to 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAIgUVgdkBmP
the side on the bed. I quickly sat up and held my cheek.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAXBw1Bkhf7v
"Christine!" I exclaimed. I was shocked that she did that.1036Please respect copyright.PENANApx7DqovQ35
"Do you want more of 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAb4d6ET6Ouj
this pillow or should I get a hammer instead?" Christine asked 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAYw9eeQravc
threateningly as she held up her pillow, ready to strike at me again.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAIxN6f05vKp
"Never mind. I shouldn't have said that."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAaKjUonmRGT
"You got that right." 1036Please respect copyright.PENANASemawIps12
Christine put the pillow away. "I know Sam hurt you a lot, but you won't1036Please respect copyright.PENANAT8rooV9GVM
ignore her like you're doing forever."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAmMPm9f9iN1
"Don't worry, forever will be here any moment now." I said ironically as I looked at the door.1036Please respect copyright.PENANALwsoGMqGEy
"You know that sooner or later you will need her. And besides, she is always going to be around whether you like it or not."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAxME7ST6Zng
"Ya. You don't have to remind me since we're all in a group together."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAe2RHZMAD6m
Christine carefully looked at me and stood up from the bed, walking towards the window.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAvxmaJSyPxu
"It's normal for someone1036Please respect copyright.PENANA0Abs2CXWn8
to get hurt by the ones they love and you aren't the first nor the last1036Please respect copyright.PENANALDIMxjwaMB
to experience such, Zoey," said Christine as she looked at me. "You 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAKOeBVT3Vgv
just need time to heal. You'll be back to your normal self and later on,1036Please respect copyright.PENANAU8pkq4slRX
you will be laughing at all this with Sam. One thing's for sure, you 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAow8MUDrgiT
and Sam are best friends. And nothing will ever change that."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAfl0hAkZZNS
I always hated such kind1036Please respect copyright.PENANA3sj9lcz4hV
of talk. And coming from Christine, it just made me want to cry. Which I1036Please respect copyright.PENANA6bhR1ne0Qn
didn't want to do. So what if I was still mad at Sam? I knew for a fact1036Please respect copyright.PENANAGAm0kqqEP4
that I wasn't going to ignore Sam for long. And as much as I wanted to,1036Please respect copyright.PENANAjqPG9cIlx1
I couldn't live without Sam. She's been my best friend for as long as I1036Please respect copyright.PENANAS6Xv3neu3K
could remember and I'm used with her being around. Without her, I'm 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAeuwnZgk7wN
nothing.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAFsOWkvU1Ec
I've never told anyone 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA7lFiyBA51a
this before, but I've always considered Sam as my better half. Not in a 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAuTyKFOXWQk
couple kind of thing (which is kind of gross by the way), but more like a1036Please respect copyright.PENANAZXenIKX7UL
sister kind of thing. I am one person who is always prone to getting 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAafQhDUb1k0
into trouble and Sam has always been the one to get me out of it. If it 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAxrvhMeRNwa
wasn't for Sam, I would have been a high school drop out or worse. I 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAWRn3cSKA2h
also wouldn't find myself as a famous singer in a pop group right now.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAufyZOlGjHs
I am Yin and she is 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAFOiLuFLZ3u
Yang, balancing my life and hers. But mostly mine. I fell we are the 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAMxLVTbx67k
perfect harmony when we are together even though I am not as perfect as 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA7JMPJdnJVH
she is. Maybe that's why I consider myself as Yin, the dark side and Sam1036Please respect copyright.PENANA4uT6KRAAAF
the bright side. You see what I mean, right?1036Please respect copyright.PENANAmy9eLQarqj
And now when I needed 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAGyhHSZLChX
her the most, I was stuck with no one to turn to. I couldn't open up to 1036Please respect copyright.PENANARmwepcc9dv
her now and tell her what's going on in my life. I've gotten myself into1036Please respect copyright.PENANA1R2R7jy1kb
big trouble this time around and there was no way of turning back or 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAqI8c08fHqP
getting anyone involved to help. Not when you know you're involved in a 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAMDokYtqsWd
serious situation with a very dangerous person.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAjw3yjxjfSP
It all begun when I went1036Please respect copyright.PENANAibqA1kmjOZ
to Paris with G-Dragon, TOP and the other Toxins, excluding Sam. How I 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAbLXTz27auJ
wish she had come along with me that day. Maybe I wasn't going to be in 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAZey6dxsk8c
this mess.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAdtsQ0EJQUR
We were having so much 1036Please respect copyright.PENANANxP8FiOHLH
fun that night. We went for the Chanel fashion show as planned and it 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA4hVMMjSn6W
was fun looking at the latest fashion being worn and showcased on the 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAHfPMjAivX0
runway. At that time I felt on top of the world with what had happened 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAChwqVGsjzN
between G-Dragon and I at the Eiffle Tower. And I was so happy and 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAkaQXsT2jiO
pretty much oblivious that nothing could ever go wrong. But sadly, 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAstV3wKkwfW
things did go wrong.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAXuUfoYVDxt
As we were watching the 1036Please respect copyright.PENANALwVbGXQWTE
models, I was seated next to someone whom I hadn't really took notice 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAF5d2Pv4Etw
for a while since the fashion show started until he turned to look at me1036Please respect copyright.PENANAfYp8lXf7CN
and said hi. He introduced himself as Jehan. He told me he was French.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAWYYFyiptKp
When I looked at him, he1036Please respect copyright.PENANAwrpL1HMI3X
seemed like a really nice guy. He was also very handsome. He recognised1036Please respect copyright.PENANAqyLzZzpiXB
me as one of the Toxins and said he was a huge fan. We talked for a 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAAmuE0LIzvT
while during the show and for a moment there, we seemed to be getting 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAV1TlFRaqaw
along just fine. I also introduced him to the others. It was after the 1036Please respect copyright.PENANADl91MLhVhC
fashion show that I realised I was dead wrong about him.1036Please respect copyright.PENANA4rHSM54wvu
After the show when 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA4Td3mvThlA
everyone was busy finding themselves among groups and indulging into 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAOPyWpvYk6z
some random conversation, Jehan, said that he wanted to talk to me in 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA7lVQgrAvDJ
private. I didn't like the idea of leaving the others while I went out 1036Please respect copyright.PENANARKJ2dJXrJs
with someone I barely even knew. But he did say it was only going to 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAX4KqU9ghC6
take a few minutes.1036Please respect copyright.PENANATlauKS1XsI
I didn't find anything 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAGg7fASE4rx
wrong with it and I agreed to go out with him for a while. Besides, I 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAlskh8RnjaA
was getting too much attention and going out looked like a good idea at 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA1lAAlJuFaB
the time. Without telling G-Dragon who was with TOP and the others 1036Please respect copyright.PENANApL7WZmpN4u
talking to some famous fashion designers, I knew they wouldn't miss me 1036Please respect copyright.PENANABr8dBmyGaz
too much.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAlzjeYiarxy
Jehan led the way out 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAzfD3uHXuFc
and we found ourselves outside. It was lovely and the night was cool as 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA8VEWrhgMKV
we took a walk around a small garden outside the building. There were a 1036Please respect copyright.PENANARLnOmCWj7K
few people outside, some near the fountain. At least there was an 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAQh6M7tqNbI
assurance that if anything were to go wrong, there were witnesses. With 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAaX1NxYJi5q
that I felt a little safe.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAOqsu5dBILj
The two of us soon found1036Please respect copyright.PENANAy8FZbewULd
ourselves indulged in some conversation. Before I knew it, we were all 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAI6OyaCSiOX
alone in the garden and that's when Jehan took the opportunity to 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAWa1l0JxefQ
threaten me. It was something I hadn't told anyone about because what 1036Please respect copyright.PENANABZCQCo2Jib
happened frightened me. And coming from a person like Jehan, you could 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA8wAahWce1X
doubt that such a guy like him would ever do such a thing. Yet alone on a1036Please respect copyright.PENANAi1pREwHvED
lady. He said if I didn't do whatever he said, he wouldn't hesitate to 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAChGriJfHR2
hunt me down and kill me. I believed his threats because he was pointing1036Please respect copyright.PENANA5Rni7gbYck
a gun at me and his face went from sweet and kind to dangerous and 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAeeUaRSVYet
menacing.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAIoa5oMgkIr
He gave me something for1036Please respect copyright.PENANAXZFYANp5cJ
me to keep safe and not to let anyone know about it. He said he would 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA2ZncoY2hZs
follow me to Korea and get it. He was the same person I had met at the 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAw4X2lguov5
café and when I gave him the item back, he said there was more that had 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAV2qQfp4LqI
to be done. When I asked what he meant, he didn't say anything. All he 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA80ljALshgV
said was that something was going to be sent to me back at the hotel in 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAHXgwfrmENt
the name of The Toxins. That's how the teddy bear came in.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAimraue9wJM
Whatever he sent me that1036Please respect copyright.PENANAh02cnuIrTW
teddy bear for, I have no idea. And when I talked to him about what I 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAHkPCtCc10e
should do with it yesterday, he said he would meet with me and give me 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAz5vHYRT0oT
further instructions. And I couldn't meet up with him because of what 1036Please respect copyright.PENANATV8uIgvy1G
happened yesterday.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAkxvor1ItAJ
I had never been in this1036Please respect copyright.PENANArduIVUMMdQ
situation before and all I wanted was for all this to be over. But how?1036Please respect copyright.PENANAfGnSy3qTSk
Unless I come up with a plan, I was going to be threatened for the rest1036Please respect copyright.PENANALTxCCSPi1p
of my life and that's how I didn't want my life to be. I'm Zoey for 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA3685GcBM8h
crying out loud. I had to do something.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAPznzfv6Jqj
My phone rang bringing 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAG5EKwC1yQo
me back from my thoughts. Christine who was looking out the window, 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAcAU2LoW9Qa
turned to look at me. I went to looking at the phone laying right beside1036Please respect copyright.PENANASVR62LeQKU
me. When I saw that Jehan was calling, I froze.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAW0mmSQ08vd
"Aren't you going to answer that?" Christine asked, as I delayed to pick up the call.1036Please respect copyright.PENANA1mboa18M3r
"I...uh, ya, I will," I said as I picked up the phone and answered the call. I could already feel myself starting to sweat.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAq1WfIPQL2O
"Hello?" I answered. I almost gave out a croak when I spoke.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAQfFfbyTUlL
"Nice to hear that you're still answering my calls. Shows that you're cooperating."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAc2hTtPF4WR
I would have told him to1036Please respect copyright.PENANAyr4qCGLQNf
mind his own beeswax but I couldn't with Christine in the room staring 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAn0N0jzUZvB
at me like an eagle. Was she observing me? I couldn't tell.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAKOj2zGE6YR
"I'm great and you?" I said over the phone with a smile. Christine ignored me and went back to looking at the window.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAf1OBEjTlmD
"Looks like you aren't 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA4KtvfVjLKL
alone," said Jehan. I could hear in his voice that he wanted to chuckle.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAi7jkguylmj
"You wouldn't have answered so nicely like you rarely do."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAIMtV21ih3l
"May I help you with anything?" I asked as nicely as I could. He was already getting on my nerves.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAijzgsXjO54
"Relax, my little tigress. I could tell I'm getting on your nerves and that won't be good for you now, would it?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAbrp0mclwbQ
"Just get to the point, 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAYrqQird55T
will you?" I snapped, losing my cool. Christine turned to look at me. I 1036Please respect copyright.PENANApWIAPchiWt
smiled as best as I could that I was afraid my face would tear.1036Please respect copyright.PENANA6hAJAZUMN3
"I want us to meet, today," said Jehan. There was a touch of coldness to his voice and that sent chills down my spine.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAts2CSQzBIZ
"Today? Are you serious?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAPNPw7qOABC
"You know that I am. We meet today."1036Please respect copyright.PENANALLTlYKZxQB
"But where?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAOJL58aKG5K
"At the mall."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAadWDQIfzjs
For a moment I almost 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA6Rp0W9sCmz
burst out laughing, but I held my mouth. I wondered why he would want to1036Please respect copyright.PENANABeHFLUqRE8
meet me at the mall. I was expecting the café again or some fancy 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAgrP44bV6rO
restaurant. To me, he didn't strike me as one person who would want to 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAML7vfonU5X
hang out at the mall. That's what made it seem so funny to me.1036Please respect copyright.PENANArR4AsRcNEq
"What's so funny?" Jehan1036Please respect copyright.PENANAopV9KEacCc
asked sternly. He knew I was almost about to burst out laughing. The 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAaCStxGVnHb
tone of his voice almost did the trick but I still took a hold of 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA2VPaJ7T9if
myself.1036Please respect copyright.PENANA8p5OojYv2w
"Nothing, I wanted to sneeze but held it. That's all."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA34f0YdfJ5F
"You better be telling the truth or else I will blow your brains out."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAI2GaE22fBD
If he thought saying 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAwIfQbWAev1
that would get me scared, it didn't. I pulled the phone far away from me1036Please respect copyright.PENANAaiHYfBFWfF
and laughed quietly. Then I put the phone back to my ear.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAPT1Ad8Hyws
"I don't think I would be able to meet you," I said, choosing my words carefully in front of Christine.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAVh3F9lS3rJ
"I don't care. You're meeting with me whether you like it or not."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAHk1QbUduF2
"Mmm. Even if I wanted to, I don't know how I'm going to get there."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAzgobsxlr1I
"A car will be waiting to take you within fifteen minutes. You better get ready. And don't forget the teddy."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAltohRzNDJe
"Ya, sure."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA3AQ0Zni59g
Jehan didn't say 1036Please respect copyright.PENANABx1zB4leQL
anything more and cut the call. He was so rude. Bossing me around just 1036Please respect copyright.PENANABcqa59JJ2y
because he could do whatever he wants with a gun pointed to my head. 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAZ809k6cCkg
Typical.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAZoEvc5VMEV
"Who was that?" Christine asked, looking at me.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAnG3R3jeuIo
"Oh, it was Seungri," I lied. "He wanted to see if I was free right now so that the two of us could hang out."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAgSK6pOytFf
"Seriously?" Christine looked surprised. "Why would Seungri call you just to hang out?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANA7FDJRlvPbu
"Well, he wanted to talk to me about Sam. That's all."1036Please respect copyright.PENANApG6eBI8Z50
"And you didn't refuse?" Christine had her arms folded and looking at me with doubt.1036Please respect copyright.PENANACL4faKvanY
"Why? You think I would?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAXnqifzqVHJ
"Ya. The Zoey I know would refuse."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAOERSo6trPr
"He's just taking me to some fancy place. I couldn't refuse."1036Please respect copyright.PENANALUDeQPPUAy
"Ya, you always like the fancy stuff." Christine rolled her eyes as she looked up at the ceiling.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAPA9f5fsCBi
"Whatever happened to that teddy bear?" I asked, changing the topic.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAq16JkJJE9U
"You mean the teddy bear you hate so much?" Christine came closer and sat down on the other side of her bed.1036Please respect copyright.PENANARlijShiFd2
"That one. Where is it?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANASp2SE057A5
"Why are you even asking?" Christine shrugged her shoulders.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAIlVPJ3o8dO
"I just want to ask if it's still around. That's all. I hadn't seen it ever since we went bowling that other day."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAS16VIVRLso
Christine looked over at Lee's bed across from her's.1036Please respect copyright.PENANA6teB1vwSLv
"I saw it on the bed yesterday. I don't know where she could have put it."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAQKSEVSHhfc
"Oh. Okay," I said, as I stood up with my eyes surveying Lee's bed. "I better get ready to meet Seungri, then."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAQpUZr0lS5d
"Alright," said Christine as she also stood up. "I need to use the bathroom."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAPN5tD6GRkj
Christine went past me to the bathroom and closed the door behind her, locking it.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAFiqmJIV8Kc
I quietly went over to 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAA9o76QAAHe
Lee's bed. Her bed was well spread and pillows well placed. I couldn't 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA7THeyO4t7a
see the teddy anywhere. I had to act fast or else Christine will be back1036Please respect copyright.PENANAnx0zvbCoUT
soon.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAHzaGYVBI9S
I came to the drawer 1036Please respect copyright.PENANACziDtZwOvG
next to the bed and checked them, being careful enough not to make a 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAgS3WMTNgHU
sound. Nothing. I almost started to panic. Where was the teddy?1036Please respect copyright.PENANAJQRbRzIDVk
I looked at her bed and 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAZkCUMOqKKc
decided to check under the pillows. When I lifted one of them, there 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAW9oNMtAJ5L
laid the teddy bear still in his tiny suit.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAOArCICArcu
"There you are," I said softly as I took the teddy. "I think it's now time for you to leave once and for all."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAqlCa6y71jw
I heard the tap in the 1036Please respect copyright.PENANABTN9iBz665
bathroom running. Christine was bound to be back in the room any second 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAHu55RhjPrp
now. I quickly put the pillow back neatly and then tiptoed quickly out 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAzHfjHWYybR
of the room with the teddy in my other hand. When I reached the door, I 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAyq35kIbQ7A
quietly opened it and closed it behind me.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAmxCb401YJK
***1036Please respect copyright.PENANAVmvHrNzyIR
Sam's P.O.V1036Please respect copyright.PENANAsxXppEY8CX
"Do you really think 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA3bxmEqfGib
that teddy carries something that will help us figure out what's going 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAU3M5Xzu5Bq
on?" Lee asked as she took a sip of her smoothie, looking at me.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAkgKU1NBH2z
"Definitely," I said as I got a french fry, dipped it in sauce and put it in my mouth.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAIECW1isBd9
"Okay, so far, Derrick has described his brother as a very dangerous guy. Is he some sort of criminal or something?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAbBvI0j50xB
"For him to threaten Zoey, he must be. But if he really is a criminal, then what sort of crime does he do?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAuhrcFhZHrM
"I hope it's not drugs."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAHjtBejd7xn
"I hope not too." I shook my head at that terrible thought.1036Please respect copyright.PENANARjiYl16OIj
"What of gun trafficking?" Lee asked as she held her smoothie cup in midair.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAU0qFP4uZ7o
"No way." I asked as I drank from my smoothie.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAe0WETny5bY
"So, what should we do with that teddy bear?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAjy5hOwsN19
"Keep it away from her. Whatever that thing has, we have to know before she takes it away."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAgIR0TAN9rK
"I wonder why she never kept it for herself. I mean, if she is being threatened, her life will depend on that teddy, right?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANARl9NT4wWTC
"True." I nodded my head. "I bet she pretended to hate the teddy so that we don't get suspicious of anything."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA7pFfhNWoGi
"She did a pretty good job on that one."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAEFoUKqGgwh
"Ya. But she was overreacting. Who could reject such a cute teddy bear like that one?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAW3pvR4xASY
"Zoey."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAK4YxLa4aS0
"Haha. Ya. I heard Zoey 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAGJlaTLr56v
talking to Derrick's brother. They were supposed to meet yesterday but 1036Please respect copyright.PENANACWcxVKCUt6
they couldn't because of our little fight."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAiGJhWzcIsp
"Mmm." Lee took a fry 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAL9YJ1ILzHf
and dipped it in sauce as she looked deep in thought. "Don't you think 1036Please respect copyright.PENANARo2TUFxTh7
the two would try to meet today, no matter what?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAYZdgMZuD17
I raised an eyebrow at 1036Please respect copyright.PENANApNkxXTv87y
her. Come to think of it, I was supposed to be keeping an eye on Zoey. 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAVEEBN0Vhqw
But here I was, eating fries. I completely forgot.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAqojwlyitEe
"Shoot!" I said loudly 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAvSAZcvqirF
as I leaned my head back with my eyes closed. I bet everyone around me 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAtsXQmwg7e1
was wondering what was wrong with me since I was so loud. I hit my head 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAK9aEsyNEV8
with my hand. "You're so right, Lee."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAkpcUm0hz1l
"About what?" Lee asked.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAQUkawhdQCf
"About Zoey meeting him today. I should have been more aware."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAbFkp2PmVYy
"But do you think they would? I was just suggesting."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA80Ab5UXMrA
"But today might be the 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAfmk91Z9aQH
perfect time for them to meet. We are here, the boys are busy playing 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAOlR3per8ZC
video games and Zoey might find a way to dodge Christine to go out."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAwLoBdLUPaz
"Hopefully not. If she is going to meet him today, then she might take the teddy with her."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA8v6dR3bxVq
My heart rate quickened 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAMXCBVTFGiZ
at the thought of Zoey meeting Derrick's brother. I was scared. What if 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA1H5jxRXkbG
she sees him today and things don't go well this time around?1036Please respect copyright.PENANAvgVeiCa4CW
"If I were you, I would give Zoey a call," said Lee. She obviously saw the worried look on my face.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAjlFq8kk4Up
"No, you do it," I said shaking my head. "She isn't going to answer my call."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA7fk6MYKdts
"Oh, yeah," said Lee as she took out her phone from her handbag and called Zoey.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAu1TdFJyNRe
"She isn't picking up," said Lee as she looked at her phone. "She must have switched her phone off."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA8QaAnzpCSV
"She must have gone to see him. Call Christine and ask about Zoey."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA0iPq7d3FMO
Lee went back to her phone and immediately called Christine. Christine picked up immediately.1036Please respect copyright.PENANASd27IEMkLT
"Hey, Christine," said Lee as she looked over at me and I watched her intently. "I wanted to ask if Zoey is with you."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAna00jzegRX
There was a pause as Lee listened to Christine over the phone. Lee's face changed completely.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAQ08rjLb8rA
"Alright, thanks, 1036Please respect copyright.PENANALfwHBDOTnG
Christine," said Lee as she cut the call and looked at me. "Zoey had 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAkvnEOpBAbZ
left the hotel a few minutes ago. Christine says she went out with 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAqe7mHSSkme
Seungri."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAXZeg9ofdKo
I raised an eyebrow. "Seungri? Why would Seungri meet with Zoey? I bet she lied."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAniDV2BO5XT
"Of course she did. She has obviously gone to meet with this guy."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAiXYioaQ8kg
"Did Christine say where she had gone?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAR2MqsCDNVk
"No. Zoey wasn't specific. All Christine said was that she and Seungri were going to some fancy place."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAI9D0N6flS6
I suddenly decided to get my phone from my purse and called Seungri. He answered the call immediately.1036Please respect copyright.PENANA4tIB6UfnNF
"Hey, BK," he said so enthusiastically over the phone. "How are you?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANApN2R1IOONa
"I'm fine, Seungri, thanks," I said, immediately jumping to the point. "Where are you?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANATn1IFRNwOv
"I'm in my car heading to GD's. Is there anything I could do for you?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAQg1HCMbqqg
"Uh, no, nothing. Was just asking. Are you alone?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAlF37KUfap3
"Yes, I am." I could 1036Please respect copyright.PENANATgZOJn10aE
already imagine a smile on his face and I had to get ready for a 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAUffyxICMPr
ridiculous question to follow. "Why? You think I'm with someone? A woman1036Please respect copyright.PENANAbfS4hDlD0e
perhaps?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANA92H3RnPtlU
I rolled my eyes and as 1036Please respect copyright.PENANANSGSXdq01t
much as I wanted to remain stoic and not laugh, I did. I quickly tried 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAe6t9Q81wl2
to cover it up, but Seungri also heard it and chuckled. Lee looked at me1036Please respect copyright.PENANAcAvFDuwP0p
with an eyebrow raised as I laughed out loud this time around.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAmC33p6sGuv
"What makes you think that?" I asked after recovering from my laugh.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAGseWxyRQL0
"For you to call, I'm guessing you must have been thinking of me and tried to see what I'm up to."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAxzgWT11wYe
I bit my lower lip and 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAYGEGzuW2hp
shook my head. If only he knew why I called. But I had to admit, he was 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA7rq25OgL0T
really making me laugh even when I didn't want to.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAYAh9Wax1pH
"It's really nothing, Seungri. I just wanted to say hi."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAQ8mrICWQyK
"Well, if you say so." I knew he wasn't buying it. "Where are you?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAUseqi76lt8
"I'm at the mall with Lee."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAhxCYH0oSRa
"Okay, you have fun now. You will need it."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA1vTZ40sGHM
"Bye."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA5MaJdNaacH
"Bye, my little kitty."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAzQRpI2kjRQ
"Well, that was some conversation," said Lee as I put my phone away.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAI85B6hbqNb
"Ya, it was," I said still with a smile on my face.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAFV12z4dARx
"So, he isn't with Zoey?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAGcu6oQDESi
"Nope. And he isn't 1036Please respect copyright.PENANANpFP5BFi4I
going to some fancy place either." I paused as the smile on my face 1036Please respect copyright.PENANADAtGTHc6GA
disappeared. "He's gone to see G-Dragon."1036Please respect copyright.PENANANiEBJuQKmh
"Oh." Lee took her smoothie and sucked on the straw. "Umm, what are we going to do now? We have to know where Zoey is."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA2IDEa89pYu
"You're right," I said. "But where can we even start to look? This time, I'm blank."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAQvhmKZfxrC
"Maybe they are going to meet at the café again."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAttfaUn1ad5
I shook my head. "I highly doubt it. Even if we were to guess where they could meet, it would probably be too late."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAUGpUvm8IEe
Lee sighed as she folded her arms. "Well, this has turned out to be such a bust."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAwLQIqwA4vO
"Tell me about it." I 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAKSDrJqs3AT
put my elbows on the table and held my head in my hands. "I shouldn't 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAa4PKXpPwCE
have allowed this to happen. I shouldn't have been so absent minded."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAHzaOvuRU4Y
"Don't beat yourself up, Sam," said Lee. "Maybe it's time we told Zoey what we already know."1036Please respect copyright.PENANACCxHU9HzlQ
I nodded. We were now caught in a dead end and maybe it was time we involved the others too.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAqD3bMFNV0Q
After we were done with 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAK3Mvm36DIZ
lunch, we paid for the meal, carried our shopping bags with us and with 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA2io1lpRBBm
our body guards following behind, we headed out of the mall.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAbofnVsWEws
As soon as we walked out1036Please respect copyright.PENANAlByyK5WUB5
through the main entrance, a fancy looking red Ferrari was parked right1036Please respect copyright.PENANAYDcwESkxOQ
in front of us in the parking lot. Just as we were about to bypass the 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA1A2NnGUy4S
car, the door to the driver's seat flew open and a man in a fancy 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAGptDrpk7mF
looking black suit stepped out.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAILAs1s87VZ
Time seemed to have 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAiec5Qgrzzq
stopped when I looked at the man from the corner of my eye. He was tall 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAIZ9VUVpTmM
and handsome with a strong jaw and black shiny hair which was combed 1036Please respect copyright.PENANALTGxvTlIGi
back. He had a pair of sunglasses on and I couldn't help but feel 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAXSG7oaUQIc
something familiar about him.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAFMPmx53Ojw
Just as I was about to 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAeNiHP4xaiG
focus ahead, the man removed his shades and I fully turned to look at 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA5RcBfSwNRT
him. My mouth almost dropped and I couldn't believe what I was seeing.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAIZaX0f50Ki
I almost tripped and 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAjvPeQPNKnh
fell over on the road but I was quick to gather myself. Lee looked at me1036Please respect copyright.PENANALR5TCClw0i
with concern because even the guards almost came to my rescue to stop 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAzjjRqmm0au
me from falling.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAH9PnnIFz6C
"Are you okay, Sam?" Lee asked as she looked at me. "You almost fell."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAKcKLHDbGSI
I didn't say a word as I1036Please respect copyright.PENANA72zdEX8nyv
looked behind me where the Ferrari was packed and I noticed the man go 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAugQSvuFmAa
inside the mall. I turned to look at Lee.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAJbQKAPw7PL
"We need to go back, Lee," I said.1036Please respect copyright.PENANA9lfcR5QZlI
"But why? You're scaring me Sam. It's look like you have seen a ghost."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAfiUVmdot2P
"Trust me, Lee. We need to go back. We have to put these bags away first."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA6lCBaNlArN
"May I please know what's going on with you?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAGp0XxKElQY
"I know where Zoey and Derrick's brother are going to meet. They will be meeting here. At the mall."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAC9bSZPbMoV
***1036Please respect copyright.PENANAfmUkebsyVo
Narrator's P.O.V1036Please respect copyright.PENANAecAcdaxCoO
Seungri came into G-Dragon's apartment and found TOP, Taeyang and G-Dragon, who was still in his pyjamas, in the living room.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAahLeSVgYCE
"Hey guys, am here," 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAiX4YqzGAFP
annouced Seungri as he sat down on the couch next to Taeyang. "You guys 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAioVz4gkaJn
look downcast as though someone's just died."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAy5yS3VXNhF
"Ji Yong still doesn't want to talk things out with Sam," said TOP.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAt4m8Kcg0vr
"This is getting real 1036Please respect copyright.PENANATFSCz03DlD
frustrating, guys," said G-Dragon who was hugging a couch pillow close 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAxrkLjkm0Da
to him and looking down on the floor. "Now isn't the time to talk with 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAWSmfORqM17
her or with anyone of you."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAtUdyCuW8rK
"No, I think now is the 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAaQpPDC16Iy
time to solve things with her," said Taeyang. "We will be working on the1036Please respect copyright.PENANAbzvVkDz6co
music video soon and we can't do this if you two aren't on good terms."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAsYVefxml0k
"And let's not forget, Zoey," said Seungri.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAsZ3WVnL3jU
"Zoey is a whole lot tougher to talk to," said G-Dragon. "I already did my part and told her the truth."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAsyj7RKZMsr
"Well, you shouldn't have led her on if you knew you had feelings for Sam," said Taeyang.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAZeFjNTlxbw
"Let's not forget, Daesung also has feelings for her," said TOP.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAM9w7nqoRQC
"And me," said Seungri with a corky smile on his face.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAOLcO8QG53i
"Oh, stop joking around, Seungri," said G-Dragon, with a frown on his face.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAF3jNl7ZbDj
"For real," said Seungri raising his hands in the air admitting to the truth. "I also like Sam."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA0JLlUOjVIb
The others rolled their 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA7KkpmR2vlM
eyes at Seungri, obviously not taking him seriously. He usually jokes 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAf1vpQ0hk0T
around and now wasn't the time for it.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAygL33kWe05
"Look, I know leading Zoey on was a big mistake, but I'm more angry at Sam than at myself," said G-Dragon.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAMpgMIvbavV
"Why? Because Sam and Daesung kissed?" Seungri asked with an eyebrow raised.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAMiGzBmK0BE
G-Dragon didn't answer immediately. He looked like he was about to jump at Seungri and tear him apart.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAgueWHrDYWK
"Well, maybe," said 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAMtFDfVT4S7
G-Dragon. "The thing is, the day Zoey went missing, she and I had a talk1036Please respect copyright.PENANARbvjmcvTr5
in the park about the same thing. She figured out that I liked her so 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA0ESt8TMx1i
she told me to break things up with Zoey."1036Please respect copyright.PENANADiNDZ44w3B
"And why didn't you do that sooner?" TOP asked.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAwlMGU8NWec
"When I saw Daesung and 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAOeaaBoBtvp
Sam so close the next day, I couldn't help it. I had a feeling they 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA4Xrc3TkCgM
kissed though I didn't see it for myself. That's what made me so mad."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAzOgQiLRXqu
"And you still are," said Taeyang.1036Please respect copyright.PENANA1MKQdvzJ5v
G-Dragon didn't answer 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA4pIHc7Rghe
as he looked down at his fingers, looking as if he was ready to bite 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAjs3ZzRgG0B
them out of anger. "Yes," he replied slowly.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAWvRDNmfKfQ
"Oh, I get it now," said Seungri, as he looked up at the ceiling. "But I see no reason why Sam could be in the wrong here."1036Please respect copyright.PENANATSjqehwBuY
"What do you mean?" 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAAl9MlO2zEX
G-Dragon asked as he looked up at Seungri. "Sam didn't tell me anything 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAln9G3cP12r
about Daesung and yet she told me not be with Zoey anymore."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA5G0nQ2Dk2y
"She was just doing that1036Please respect copyright.PENANA6ZWJY5vUEf
to protect Zoey because she figured out that you like her instead of 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA5IeRRMx7t6
her best friend," said Taeyang. "And besides, we all heard your little 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAED2oEEgbd4
argument. She and Daesung also talked and also agreed that they cannot 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAdOGxvkuqOi
be together."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAJAH6rKGif3
"I still don't believe all that," said G-Dragon.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAfryPxzIG5R
"You better believe it, Ji Yong," came Daesung's voice by the door. "Sam never meant to hurt anyone. Not even you."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA4Koh4oMvUv
All the four BigBang 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAgFQSU5ZJvm
members in the living area, turned towards the door. Daesung stood there1036Please respect copyright.PENANAeAz9WIM9Zf
looking at them. The others were a little surprised that they hadn't 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAUta8R0p5W6
heard him come in.1036Please respect copyright.PENANA8NmvidzSGX
"It's good you're here," said Seungri. "You also have a lot of explaining to do."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAA7p7a2hBL2
"No, he doesn't," said G-Dragon.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAkAqNLP9EqH
"Yes, I do," said Daesung. "All this has to be cleared up once and for all."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAMpcn9wAeOH
"True," said TOP. G-Dragon who sat beside him gave him an angry stare. TOP shrugged. "What?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAlahrg8iuZC
"I'm not going to stay 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAIaKCsjWKXz
here and listen to this," said G-Dragon as he stood up from the couch. 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA3OTXwEUUP6
"If you need me, I'll be in my room."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAONn0082Aif
"No wait, you have to hear me out," said Daesung.1036Please respect copyright.PENANA1wYYt25UAg
"No, I don't."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAH0RJSWJ9uR
Before G-Dragon could 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA5A1Ia0qx8p
take a step in the direction of his room, TOP held his arm and pulled 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAnuHZ1EY50G
him down. G-Dragon sat right back on the couch.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAB7m0PZnOg0
"You aren't going anyway," said TOP.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAkAG6V5k27r
"Come on, man, seriously!" G-Dragon complained.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAX4KUVEixzx
"Let's hear what Daesung has to say, alright?" Taeyang suggested.1036Please respect copyright.PENANADMHWjxL3n2
G-Dragon folded his arms1036Please respect copyright.PENANAs6xFmJMXpi
and looked at the others like an angry child who was told to do 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAmxtgPPHCPg
something that he didn't want to do. He finally rolled his eyes and 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAQFcPhKm7Ss
stared at the ceiling.1036Please respect copyright.PENANA6nBAieKV6u
"Fine," he said. Then he looked at Daesung. "Go ahead."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAyQrSIseDJN
Daesung came into the 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAvy1VzQ4pL9
living area and didn't take a seat. He stood there in front of the TV 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAB49caNxpCK
for everyone to get his attention. His eyes locked with G-Dragon's.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAwBUuVnE51Z
"Look, I know you're 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAFaECAHBasp
probably mad and want to kill me right now," started Daesung. "But first1036Please respect copyright.PENANAOrTDkQ8vxU
thing's first, I had no idea that you had something for Sam and she 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAYdXS3QaExw
never told me anything either."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAfQ7BAJZrvB
"Do you really like her?" G-Dragon asked, looking at Daesung with so much intent.1036Please respect copyright.PENANA98hY0Mm9AC
"Yes, I won't deny it. I thought she and I might make our relationship work, but she didn't think that way."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAbBO2DMabmX
"Why?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAE0PQ5YBBTM
"She just felt like it 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA2yke4soBda
wasn't going to work. That's what she told me. She wasn't going to stay 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAmQQoMvytya
here for long. And judging by that, she doesn't look like one who thinks1036Please respect copyright.PENANAJJZNRc6zkc
long distance relationships will ever work out."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAReYgBCMYlz
"Then, why did you kiss her?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAOTXNB3wyBK
"Because I know I'll 1036Please respect copyright.PENANATLIKWeOjd5
never get a chance to do so. Sam is a great person and calling her great1036Please respect copyright.PENANA0mtPEUWLaf
is an understatement because she is way beyond that. And I see 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAM4C50iJAN7
something in her that I've never seen in any other girl before. I could 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAojRwmOeuvG
tell you also see it in her too. She is also one person who wouldn't 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA6FuGyLazv2
want to hurt anyone either.1036Please respect copyright.PENANA6sQykDFSYc
"Maybe that's why she 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAM1oX5dg1Fq
didn't want anything to do with me either because she knew you would 1036Please respect copyright.PENANALTTc44yeHo
also get hurt. But unfortunately, you already had a hunch about our kiss1036Please respect copyright.PENANAMVP21D8iAf
and I could see that it really hurt you a lot."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAxSuKzoaCj8
"Ya, it did," said G-Dragon as he looked somewhere else, his mind on Sam.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAPXYEkvu6VI
"Now, are you going to talk to her?" Daesung asked.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAbdX9Ah0KPj
"What?" G-Dragon turned to look back at Daesung with a confused look on his face.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAHll4q8fj6s
"Aren't you going to talk to Sam?" Daesung asked again. "All this wasn't entirely her fault."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA0muGmiZpC0
"I know."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAZBxZfCqcwc
"So, you will talk to her, then?" TOP asked.1036Please respect copyright.PENANA6j7RYBr3XC
"I'll think about it."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAV4d6JmfV9m
"No, no, no!" Seungri 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAykYIFyi0gk
waved his finger at G-Dragon. "That's it! You're always stubborn and you1036Please respect copyright.PENANA5cAbP49Iu3
want things to be done your way. Go and take a shower. We're going to 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAElNLSpBE9J
the mall."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAA53ivc0C1Q
Everyone turned to look at Seungri and wondered if he had hit his head or something.1036Please respect copyright.PENANA17RxTnCTfI
"Huh?" Taeyang shook his head, trying to understand if he had heard right. "Did you just say the mall?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAKgk8JG7FWG
"Ya," said Seungri, 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA1Pb6m9VM2A
shaking his head. "We're going to the mall. Sam is there and I think 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA0IA3x0MS8A
this will be a good time for the two of them to talk."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAq3IUlyD9w5
"No way! I'm not going to the mall," said G-Dragon. "What am I going to say? I need more time to think about it."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAP7x5qDRFz9
"There is no time to 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA0fSVfQUKFE
think about it," said TOP. "I'm not going to allow you to keep on doing 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA1lHQks5H1P
this to Sam. It's not right at all."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAsLWXkce0jj
"It's best you go, GD," said Daesung. "And we are all going with you so that you have no reason to escape."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAjSJcHKQ4U4
"No way," said G-Dragon. "You will have to force me into the shower if I'm leaving for the mall."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAjmNdv9lfmN
"We're your best 1036Please respect copyright.PENANALQmOtLrmeF
friends, so, no hard feelings," said Taeyang with a smirk on his face. 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAVKmC1YvWN0
He addressed the others, "guys, let's take him to the shower."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA3M6mPEwwQx
"Wait! What!" G-Dragon looked horrified as the others came and quickly surrounded him. And there was no way of trying to escape.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAwNz97GFWPF

Zoey's P.O.V1036Please respect copyright.PENANAcrIAl4mJ3s
I came out of the black 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAjOejeFRjWX
Mercedes as it stopped directly in front of the mall. I quickly put my 1036Please respect copyright.PENANACID31vFVth
shades on as I walked towards the entrance and I heard screams behind 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAwlXtb2geFk
me. I smiled at the reaction and turned around to see a group of young 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAX8oGDLFnZu
teenagers, obviously having a fun time at the mall, giggling and waving 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAKl7Z6KWfzm
at me. I smiled and waved back and they screamed even more. I continued 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAGm8wsgApL3
on my way into the mall, always liking the feeling of being recognized 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAQxHANXmmtf
by my fans.1036Please respect copyright.PENANANmVe6zKQEM
I pulled out my phone from my purse as I went on the escalator and called Jehan.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAWLVbQVmho8
"I'm guessing you're already here," said Jehan as he picked up the call.1036Please respect copyright.PENANASB5gvnFhuk
"Yes. Where are you?" I asked.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAKu1sFBAb6F
"I'm at the Rolex store. Just go up the escalator and keep on moving forward. You'll find the store to your right."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAgfT8Yi8LHv
"Okay."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAZfQC0y687v
"Did you bring what I asked for?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAZ1HWl77eTt
I sighed in irritation. "I'm not that dumb not to bring it."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAyWr4n1b6lP
"I was just asking. As much as you are blonde, I know you're good enough to blackmail me over the teddy bear."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAFJPBI5ajLk
"Well, I'm glad you 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAl1zpF061v2
think I can blackmail you," I said as I reached the top and walked away 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAIPNpTEbRtq
from the escalator, walking ahead down the wide spaced hall as he had 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA7Mith86VRS
instructed. "And for the record, I'm not blonde. I'm actually a whole 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAKfh6kZa17e
lot smarter than you think."1036Please respect copyright.PENANASVdWolYrIT
"Just get over here," said Jehan, also sounding irritated and cutting the call.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAyKTVjCxW7N
"Mr Grumpy is such a 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAyR349oqyOt
pain in the butt," I muttered as I put my phone away and looked around 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA4tuWuHC8gV
for the Rolex store. It didn't take too long to find it.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAYtdwlRWjm6
When I went into the 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAm3Z6aCG6Ru
fancy looking store showcasing fancy looking watches, I found Jehan by 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAAz6H76zjSK
the counter, looking down at watches through the glass case.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAsKCmzn8fvi
I stood right beside him and looked down at the watches.1036Please respect copyright.PENANA1t3lgrjive
"If I were you, I would go for that one," I said as I pointed at one of the watches.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAJYwmGoFyDG
"I don't need your opinion with anything, Zoey," said Jehan, his emerald green eyes looking at me.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAcHNxgdzzdI
I shivered. Despite his 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAn6n12scFtW
good looks, he had a stare in his eyes that could make you drop dead in 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAP0hxpvD2cS
seconds. I wondered why such a handsome man like him, could be so hard 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA1QPQcRd5d4
to the core. As much as it was scary, he gave me butterflies in my 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAVOxWdlFKtl
stomach. Which to me is totally creepy.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAxvEdxgoZts
"Now, that you're here," said Jehan, as he turned to fully look at me. "I can now get what I want."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA0ish5uBbvX
"May I ask why you sent this teddy bear to me?" I asked.1036Please respect copyright.PENANA2w2akpWW1M
"Why do you need to 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAlvReyBgyPJ
know?" Jehan asked as he stepped closer. He was too close that I could 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAPdd6ZQmPCC
feel his breath on me. I almost trembled by his close presence.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAvgr9G1zVFC
"Well, I need to know 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAjpuwJBLqvt
what you're up to, don't you think?" I asked, standing my ground. Him 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAEXfQQdMp53
being so close to me almost made my legs turn to jelly.1036Please respect copyright.PENANARE7DxEFroG
"And tell me, why should1036Please respect copyright.PENANAIdoCZHcqw2
I tell you?" He leaned in closer. This time he spoke so softly that my 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAENoORo8izP
heart fluttered. With that deep husky voice of his and his French 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAJXODFYVf1o
accent, I was completely drawn to him. And not to mention his musky 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAVyk9nAUAvy
cologne, yum. It was just delicious.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAODoaNZG67b
"I...eh..." I looked him1036Please respect copyright.PENANAj5Gwo9Hhd3
in the eye and tried to focus but I couldn't. I cleared my throat. 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAT5cuFYUlJT
"It's not fair. First, I came with that box from Paris. And then you 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAZhXNHWmcjh
sent me a teddy which is highly unusual given that you don't look like 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAc2MxA158ce
the kind who would send such a thing."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAlbxTI3aEd4
"Oh, really?" Jehan 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAyy7Ocjl0uK
raised his eyebrow at me. I had to admit, he looked kind of hot when he 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAnmlzHn7IaM
did so. "What makes you think I couldn't send such a cute teddy bear?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAoPeeHUIeb6
"I don't know." I 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAt9qhe6UOQu
shrugged my shoulders. "You just don't seem like the guy who would. And 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAFOQmTboYfN
it was kind of weird if you ask me. But answer my question. What are you1036Please respect copyright.PENANAtIiXSktvvE
up to?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAgD5gacj8SM
Jehan gave me a smile that made me blush that I had to look down on the floor so that he wouldn't notice.1036Please respect copyright.PENANA6YdOZXKLSZ
"Fine, I'll tell you," said Jehan. "Let's go and have a little something to eat, shall we? We can talk from there."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAOwfV2lpkvx
"Whoa! Wait a minute," I said as I backed away from him, a little surprised. "You're willing to tell me?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANADYWZoLCYPN
"What's the matter with that?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAbmSbTlpdIg
"I thought you would be hard to convince given that you're so mean."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAC6oohUT8pE
"Don't test my patience,1036Please respect copyright.PENANAGs3G8rnCpj
Zoey," said Jehan, his voice getting restless. "Just because I want to 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAGMPDDw6s2I
tell you, doesn't mean you can take all this like a joke. Besides, I 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAZ6hsJg1dwB
think you deserve to you know."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAuwMVbwIJqi
"Well, yes, I do."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAbpGtes9sri
Jehan smirked. "Good. Follow me."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAUiUyp9BKpI
***1036Please respect copyright.PENANAoL34e3EELe
Sam's P.O.V1036Please respect copyright.PENANAicNniw9jwv
I could see Zoey from 1036Please respect copyright.PENANADIdi3kvNvM
across the hall at the Rolex store. I was looking at clothes right next 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAQ4MnlCmUPB
to the huge window display so that I could have a clear view of Zoey and1036Please respect copyright.PENANAF5HEmNVSHw
Derrick's brother. Lee was right behind me facing the opposite 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAjwifNWUyLh
direction also pretending to be looking at clothes.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAzCdWInIMv8
I was entirely grateful 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAEA868I4Mlf
that the body guards had kept an eye out for Zoey when she came here to 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAwtHnxJ9o6I
the mall. They were the ones who told us that she had arrived and had 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAkwflfaBVy2
followed her to the Rolex store. I was just glad that she hadn't noticed1036Please respect copyright.PENANA5PYcj62QiL
them. We were close by looking for Derrick's brother when the guards 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAQOrVkRuBMG
told us where Zoey was. We decided to go to the store opposite from 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAzjPsG57KhX
where they were and keep an eye on them from now on.1036Please respect copyright.PENANA2PhZXHv0OR
"The man is so handsome," said Lee as she looked out the window. "I still can't believe that he is a bad guy."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAQEnS8t6CSZ
"Believe me, he is," I said as I looked at a nice beige top on a hanger and then took a brief glance out the window.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAtnSGIzV4d3
"But how did you know 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAGUuGJwufZ2
that's Derrick's brother? I mean, you haven't seen him before and that 1036Please respect copyright.PENANADuVOZ70W0t
photo you showed me never revealed his face."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAHcWMYQiyMU
"True. It's because he looks so much like Derrick."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA1QXZB2U3Ry
Lee turned to look at me with her mouth wide open. "For real! Do you mean, like twins?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAqxgfkaWmrJ
"Well, ya," I said as I 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAbVwksAzMOe
looked at Derrick's brother who was standing so close to Zoey through 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA8b8SGEyzMO
the window. "Maybe they are twins. They look so much alike. Except, 1036Please respect copyright.PENANASNw4dsL4Tj
Derrick has blue eyes and short brown curly hair."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAs8JznND2tX
Lee turned to the window1036Please respect copyright.PENANAtPVdiz5LTF
and I could tell she was observing Derrick's brother. "If he looks like1036Please respect copyright.PENANAB2MJP4FLvK
that, I can easily picture how Derrick looks like."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAe3qvsP1IcE
"He's handsome too. Looks like it runs in the family."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAHImsl0xvgG
"Tell me about it. Too bad their mindsets are completely different."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAbW9OHA2U9l
"Derrick did say he and his brother are completely different that they don't easily get along."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAxLfomxswIS
"Figures," said Lee as she went back to looking at clothes. "I wonder what he wants that teddy bear for."1036Please respect copyright.PENANADOvBmU9Etb
"I'm also wondering too," I said as I continued to be on high alert.1036Please respect copyright.PENANARk24FcjPmh
Then, Zoey and Derrick's brother were walking out of the store. I hit Lee on the shoulder and she looked out the window.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAaEYDQwCLnW
"Come on, let's go," I said and the two of us went out of the store.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAZYfgMVDXjc
We made sure to keep a 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAnjRz4ppNLA
reasonable distance between Zoey and Derrick's brother as we followed 1036Please respect copyright.PENANATS2XgfNSiB
them. Lucky for us, there were a lot of people around, so if either of 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAwUP70bGEVG
the two ever had a chance to look behind them, they wouldn't actually 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAE8CqXBfsP5
see us properly and we could easily pretend to walk away.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAd1VfTMXHKW
They went down the 1036Please respect copyright.PENANADvVETCQfR0
escalators and we also followed. They reached the ground floor, took a 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAVpFJtayrx4
corner and went into some fancy looking Chinese restaurant. We stood 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAJHlSHy3aSx
outside waiting at a nearby store to see where they were going to sit.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAQR2mN7KsJK
They were led by a 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA6LLwIefn3A
smartly dressed waiter to a table in the middle of the restaurant. 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAYQaqhslPN7
Derrick's brother acting like a gentleman, helped Zoey with her chair 1036Please respect copyright.PENANALYibaAqJqM
and they were smiling at each other as though they were friends. I bet 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAkL0dNJwcby
they did that just to look normal in front of everyone in the 1036Please respect copyright.PENANANZnF1Khb2C
restaurant.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAIGD31tzJtI
"What are we going to do now?" Lee asked as she looked at me.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAcZQKKiIIIC
"I don't know. We surely can't stay here forever. We need to get that teddy away from Derrick's brother," I said.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAX7fdXcfyZz
"Why don't I just join them? In that way, I can ruin their plans if I'm around."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAJZzfVOtez3
"That sounds like a good idea, but won't he get suspicious?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAxn6YbsZZx1
"I doubt it. But we have to do something. I'm not going to let that teddy bear get away."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAZ9raSqLlhg
"Me neither. But what to1036Please respect copyright.PENANAWdEGydpyoi
do?" I tapped my chin with my index finger impatiently as I looked 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAZSktDM7TX9
through the restaurant's window at Zoey and Derrick's brother.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAWtArV34egK
I felt my phone beep in my purse and I quickly removed it. Seungri was calling.1036Please respect copyright.PENANA09fVanHW5F
"Hey, Seungri, what's up?" I answered, turning away from the restaurant.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAxFC2ohBUT8
"I wanted to ask, are you still at the mall?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANA7XvKF7EFDb
My mind started working. "Yes, I am. What's wrong?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAWGFu5n8IAc
"Nothing. I just wanted to ask. I'm heading there right now and I was hoping if I could join you."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA1Y8hjypjGt
Bingo! If Seungri could come here, he might just interrupt Zoey's meeting. And I knew just what to do.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAJSlNQ723o1
"Uh, ya, you can. How far are you from the mall?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAMIIU9q6F86
"I'll be there in two minutes, I'm almost there."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAOVTO5mKcip
"Perfect. Call me when you get here." I cut the call.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAEgFjN0tVP3
"Are you crazy?" Lee looked at me with a surprised look on her face. "Why do you want Seungri here?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANA3k0wmBSBIE
"Don't worry. Seungri 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAGhvLIhd1qE
will be perfect for the plan. I'm afraid Derrick's brother will get too 1036Please respect copyright.PENANATl67t5jlsb
suspicious if you go in there. Besides, Zoey knows you went out with me 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAo5yvMuh0RY
and she will know something fishy is going on."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAhoqxVRbyXr
"Well, okay," said Lee as she went back to looking at the restaurant. "Let's just hope it will work."1036Please respect copyright.PENANADhwrb4Ym07
"I hope so too."1036Please respect copyright.PENANARsvXacIOCA
***1036Please respect copyright.PENANAYZylNcBLrG
Zoey's P.O.V1036Please respect copyright.PENANAjP9Pj9Lkwa
I looked at the menu and1036Please respect copyright.PENANACBkJgnASDK
I realised that I wasn't so hungry. Maybe I was just too anxious to 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA4Vu8ZvWrOT
figure out what Jehan's plans were. I looked at him as he sat across the1036Please respect copyright.PENANAeldDpVl9Ws
table, looking at the menu. He must have felt my eyes on him because he1036Please respect copyright.PENANAdfKEGvb3n7
looked up at me.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAhoohFzjmqd
"Aren't you going to order?" Jehan asked, as he went to looking back at the menu.1036Please respect copyright.PENANA10og0dOTxk
"No. I realise I'm not that hungry anymore," I said.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAsRyRIgD7IZ
"Why?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAsh2e5gPQLd
I put the menu aside and leaned forward on the table. That caught his attention. He looked at me with an eyebrow raised.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAGbj21TzWnM
"I just want to know what you do. And by the looks of it, it's pretty serious."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA4pLZ6UJbdb
"I'm glad you figured that out." Jehan gave me a mocking smile.1036Please respect copyright.PENANA49JMj1AzRN
I growled. "Stop that, will you?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAOSyJOHD6UW
"What?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAdtdKZ0JrxX
"Mocking me. And just so you know, it's not funny."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA36I6etHrvb
"I'll try not to next 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAv1vRDacKPl
time." He turned to the waiter who had been waiting for our order. Jehan1036Please respect copyright.PENANAy6SZ78rpmK
ordered the same meal for the both of us. The waiter left immediately.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAoBVXfh7XrU
"Now, are you going to tell me?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAmJ48eRbNbg
"Yes, I'll," said Jehan. "I figured you deserve to know. Only if you do one thing."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAmWXFSZXdar
"Not tell anyone."1036Please respect copyright.PENANANDPd7AsW8i
Jehan smiled widely this time around. "Exactly."1036Please respect copyright.PENANADaZYOy9JzH
"Okay." I was now attentive. "Spill."1036Please respect copyright.PENANADpazrZer4r
"I smuggle diamonds."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA0sVIb5LST2
My eyes almost popped out of their sockets. That was sudden. I didn't expect him to be so direct.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAOIqn2Nsha7
"Surprised that I was direct?" Jehan asked as he looked at me giving me goosebumps.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAZYQr79VrY4
"Well....ya," I leaned back on my chair still recovering from what he said. "I expected something different."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAWvmGGrEE3t
"Like what? Drugs or gun trafficking?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAPQuiMwPfZ0
"That's what a lot of bad guys are involved in nowadays. I wasn't expecting that you smuggle diamonds."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA0qCRx1jY3N
The waiter came with our1036Please respect copyright.PENANAJGIcKBKrPv
appetisers, Chinese dumplings. I have always liked dumplings. I got a 1036Please respect copyright.PENANATIY4QWhEN4
pair of chopsticks and put a dumpling in my mouth.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAluPBOOheJ9
"Yes. I know it's a surprise, but that's what I do. I smuggle in diamonds from country to country."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAupllQ7zyzz
"But you don't look like the kind who would do such things."1036Please respect copyright.PENANABn6Gq9jGVO
"Too bad, I am. And there is nothing you can do to change that."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAOf3AZGCveW
"Oh, don't worry about me," I said raising my hands in surrender. "I wasn't even going to try."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAJOgEvGGbXS
"Good girl," said Jehan, as he smirked. His smirk made me blush and I quickly looked down at my food.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAgfPyAfIdbJ
"So, the little teddy has diamonds in it?" I asked, putting another dumpling in my mouth.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAktz6KD3xp3
"Yes, millions worth of tiny diamonds."1036Please respect copyright.PENANACmvIxnVn2s
"Is that why you're so rich?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAl77yqbCy04
"I was born in a rich family. We own a business but I did all this just to become more richer and more powerful."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA88mgcHiaJa
"That's being greedy, don't you think?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAJ3lov3Wayu
Jehan gave a little laugh. "That's the whole point. Power is everything."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAa6MiKPml31
I gulped. He was giving 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAwi6qVdJ9q1
me that evil look of his again. I nodded my head and prayed that I would1036Please respect copyright.PENANAwNofPZgJz6
manage to get out of this lunch, alive.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAureMaVBjJX
***1036Please respect copyright.PENANAgjEWW02g7g
Sam's P.O.V1036Please respect copyright.PENANAKK2itlcYj3
I was waiting by the 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAzyyVnT86db
entrance when I saw Seungri's lamborgini park in the parking lot and 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAKjKixAxB48
another car park right next to it. My mouth dropped. Was that Taeyang's 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAnVB0ZOWyFc
car? What was he doing here?1036Please respect copyright.PENANAQWPY09VOub
Seungri came out of the 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAPlet9gX1k8
car and Daesung came out of the passenger's seat. Taeyang came out of 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAZHQSTytv5k
his car and TOP from the passenger's side. Surprisingly, G-Dragon came 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAtjrak9KxSe
out of the back seat of Taeyang's car. I felt something in me break when1036Please respect copyright.PENANA7l8i58NcOS
I saw G-Dragon and Daesung. The whole BigBang was here! This wasn't 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAdawPlJWCM8
what I was expecting.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAFJdbovPE2f
I trembled. What am I 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAR6BV5yhOPP
going to do now? I was only expecting Seungri here. This was just 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA6686CnBkzk
fantastic! I had to think of something quick or else Zoey was going to 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAiSSqH9Bix9
give Mr Teddy away.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAxMqB26JAtx
"Hey, Sam," said Seungri as they came to the entrance. "Were you waiting for me?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANA6nCf6K6tba
"I...eh..." I looked at Seungri, then at the others. What to do! What to do!1036Please respect copyright.PENANAwasrUsDCKe
"Sam, are you okay?" Taeyang asked. "You don't look at all happy to see us."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAarzdlPIdH1
"I, no....I," I didn't 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAtfRafqXtTB
know what to say. Now that all five of them were here, this was going to1036Please respect copyright.PENANA4ohakXBFFC
get a lot more complicated. What the hell was I going to do?1036Please respect copyright.PENANAKpFzdJtKjn
"I was only expecting 1036Please respect copyright.PENANArrt9lz64Hb
Seungri here so I'm a little surprised," I answered as I looked at 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAlaXvNTCOnk
Daesung and G-Dragon who stood there staring at me. It felt so weird 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAQVR3gO0DRO
seeing the two of them together.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAf0OktQWfRV
"We could leave if you want us to," said G-Dragon, who looked more than happy to do so.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAdZiBGFcrj8
"No, no one is going anywhere," said TOP.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAkTlE0b8DjX
"Sorry if we surprised you like this, Sam," said Daesung. "But, you and G-Dragon need to talk."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAnqnH4ZcDAT
"Talk?" I raised an eyebrow looking confused. When I looked at G-Dragon, it finally came to me. "Oh, I get it."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA519Gq2FdVX
"So, will it be okay to leave you two alone?" Taeyang asked.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAiFU3jK1vCu
"Ummm, we can talk later," I said quickly turning to look at Taeyang. "Right now, I need your help."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA5CON4wCrJ0
"What's up?" Seungri and Daesung asked at the same time, both looking concerned.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAfnqnZySwww
"Come with me," I said 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA8YS1FYniF7
as I led the way into the mall, heading towards the Chinese restaurant. 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA4GvarxLhz3
Next to the shop was a store where Lee was hiding so as to keep an eye 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAFQeu4qsWKe
on Zoey and Derrick's brother.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAHa4JBj7Uku
When we reached Lee, she turned around and her face went pale upon seeing the others.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAse2i1JIN4R
"Okay, it looks like you really weren't looking forward to seeing us," said G-Dragon, looking irritated and folding his arms.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAwFnnNgJ0Wb
"Hi, guys. You're 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA7BsqMCFZY5
right," said Lee. "Sam told me Seungri was coming here. She didn't 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAeswe661UgX
mention that the whole crew would be coming too."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAbjMEx3Nm6p
"Trust me," I said as I looked at Lee. "I had no idea they were all coming."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAb171SxxOAL
"But what's the emergency?" Taeyang asked.1036Please respect copyright.PENANA0MxG6nb6nn
I could feel Lee's eyes on me and I could tell she was scared of telling them the truth. So, I had to do the talking.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAec6RpBpTZm
"It's Zoey," I said. "Remember the guy she met at the café and who had also sent that teddy bear?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAxRBhvjCPLW
The five BigBang members all nodded their heads.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAoPb7sM3xsF
"Well, if you look into 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAh3jcsa7EDs
that restaurant," I said, pointing at the Chinese restaurant. "Zoey is 1036Please respect copyright.PENANANUTb5voKYB
with someone and I'm betting it's the same guy."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA0GPsa5H8Lx
The five all turned to 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAJF4MWaACKI
look through the glass window of the restaurant and they easily spotted 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAsoRh262kW1
Zoey and Derrick's brother. Lee nudged me on my side with her elbow and 1036Please respect copyright.PENANACzpDo8J3dh
gave me a what-do-you-think-you're-doing look.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAn7bHsklVZA
"Wait, a minute," said TOP. "I've seen that guy before."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAj55UuTSjvZ
Lee and I turned our attention to TOP and asked at the same time, "you have?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANArbxarq3kIg
"Ya, in Paris," answered TOP. "Don't you recognise him too, GD?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAkOup3naC3d
"Yes, I do," said G-Dragon looking through the glass window. "We met him at the fashion show. I'm surprised why he is here."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAynZcZ02lvV
"We were also wondering 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAhaG5nLfwwu
too," I said. "Lee and I were planning to go in there and talk with 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAbtmTeoWkx0
them, but decided that I would rather not."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAh4xeRw2jpA
"Why?" Daesung asked.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAEu2x38f5rm
"Well, Zoey seems to be 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAC7zwxQSh6W
having a good time and I didn't want to bother her with my presence 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA7OPgXr2kCX
since we argued. But then again, I'm so curious about the guy she is 1036Please respect copyright.PENANANeURxxD3So
talking to. So I thought Seungri might help out."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA4up6lr9o32
"Aww, so sweet of you to think I could solve that out for you, my little kitty," said Seungri with a smile on his face.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAFJDpWuiTPn
"Huh? Wait a minute," 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAOnwAqTcB6G
said G-Dragon, who had a confused look on his face. As he looked at 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAiu0ZcENuBc
Seungri. "I thought you always called Sam your panda."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAtgnsomcn9O
"Well, ya." Seungri shrugged. "She's my little kitty and my panda. Do you have a problem with that?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANASHPsLxg4aO
"It's a little strange for you to call her your little kitty because I call her that."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA8pksAqvsS6
Everyone turned to look 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAv098DkgGUN
at G-Dragon. What was he saying? I was very surprised by all this. And 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAF5YX3yj5aS
my heart was pounding so hard in my chest. Wow. Was G-Dragon jealous or 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAgJgdSlWr2A
something? I couldn't help but feel flattered about it.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAur9ZwkBsb0
"Looks like someone is jealous," said TOP, with a mocking smile on his face.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAgQvfjJjS8C
Lee giggled. "Tell me about it."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAYV1L6HUKaA
"Here you're now 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAAyXJIYky5E
claiming that you're the one who's supposed to call Sam your little 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAY5Ghh7klFL
kitty when you're still mad at her," said Taeyang.1036Please respect copyright.PENANARTxv2xJ5Am
"Can we not focus on that now and sort out the problem at hand?" G-Dragon asked avoiding our eyes.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAPobHrehLpS
"I'll talk with G-Dragon1036Please respect copyright.PENANAKQbCpIp0D4
later," I said. I turned to look at the restaurant as I felt myself 1036Please respect copyright.PENANADZB5ey7KYp
blush. They were almost done with their main meal. I had to do 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAJmtSQJTN26
something, quick.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAeO9mkYScpl
"Okay, fine, we will 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAzbjAXH24Z0
mock GD later," said Seungri giving G-Dragon a playful smile. "I'll go 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAFHgcL5weJ4
into the restaurant and meet the guy."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA3vUNMtWzJf
Yes. Finally. I thought 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAy2HWmn9OGM
he would never go. After G-Dragon's little jealous showdown, I thought 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAQ90wjtPAVY
everything was going to be delayed.1036Please respect copyright.PENANA9Ae3R1TwLq
"I'll come with you," said TOP. "I also would like to know who this guy is."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAiNFIQQ1Lcm
"We will wait out here," said Daesung.1036Please respect copyright.PENANA2dtBf4hMzm
Seungri and TOP started their way towards the restaurant, while the rest of us just stood there like statues.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAr2ngW6nUhU
"So, are we going to stay here or what?" G-Dragon asked.1036Please respect copyright.PENANA1CDDCpRSGQ
As much as I wanted to 1036Please respect copyright.PENANALIM060Tzpp
stay here and see what will go on with the others in the restaurant, I 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAshbY7ExAAz
decided it was time for G-Dragon and I to talk.1036Please respect copyright.PENANA6zD9Mq84I6
***1036Please respect copyright.PENANANYHobxNoGJ
Zoey's P.O.V1036Please respect copyright.PENANADM8OsJnqNP
As much as I tried to 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAsa8Wy2UDh1
enjoy this meal we were having, I couldn't wait to get out of this place1036Please respect copyright.PENANAkxmMA3ouJA
and just go back to the hotel. After my little talk with Jehan, I 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA64x3yjBYxu
haven't been able to talk again freely. I had been quiet throughout the 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA427WqXWeoA
whole meal and I bet he also noticed it too.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAPCDi8tliv8
"Have you finally decided to follow table manners or are you tired of talking to me?" Jehan asked.1036Please respect copyright.PENANA1kL9xaHO8l
"If by tired, you mean scared, then yes," I said as I finished my noodles on the plate.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAzNTCXdCXEa
"Scared? Are you really that scared of me?" Jehan had a questioning look on his face.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAqoJKBZNvHT
"Well, ya. Do you see the way you look at me sometimes? No, you don't. Silly of me for even asking."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAKPh1yzfTYa
"Looks like you're getting all worked up for nothing, Zoey." Jehan got a napkin on the table and wiped the corners of his mouth.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAtE8y7KSOQK
"What do you want me to 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA0Y4QUmONa5
do? I just found out that you smuggle diamonds, which to me is very 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAgwRWsAlNjh
illegal like drugs and gun trafficking. And I'm very scared that there 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAmWYrgTdgiu
are a lot of guns involved because you pointed one at me back in Paris."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAb10JbmwSyA
"Don't blame me. You wanted to know what I was up to."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA1tKAnSah7Z
"Well, you should have played hard to get. Given that look you give me, I wouldn't even have asked any further."1036Please respect copyright.PENANALWLrH1EpoK
Jehan shook his head and1036Please respect copyright.PENANAhHPIZkkYRT
surprisingly, he chuckled as he leaned back on his chair. "I wonder how1036Please respect copyright.PENANA6bcPn1VIcu
your group members even put up with you. You're amusing yet so 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAhIItlQlO1P
annoying."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAzt1BV7FLmo
"My group members and I get along just fine despite my drama and the petty fights we have."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAHcMRMQTtVL
"Mmm. I see that. Are you up for dessert?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANArKNuldblAI
"Do you know what, I don't want dessert. I want to go back to the hotel if you don't mind."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAxRMaldOmfu
"You can leave if you give me the teddy bear," said Jehan as he outstretched his arm and opened his palm.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAlKR5QgNnId
"Wait," I said as I held my purse close with the teddy bear in it. "I need some assurance from you about something."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAutbSv8d4gI
Jehan looked rritated and folded his arms. "What?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAbB4lBg4YIl
"Tell me this will be the last time you're going to tell me to do anything for you."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAKLT9L5I3sT
Jehan looked at me and I could tell that he was studying me. "Why? You don't want to help me out anymore?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAh9pJ6DGNat
"Heck no!" This time, I was a little loud and a few heads in the restaurant looked my way. I lowered my voice. "Sorry."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAF56NLRCKkI
Jehan looked unmoved by my reaction, but I could easily tell that in the inside, he was pretty pissed.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAVvuNjE5Fu6
"Just so you know, this might probably be the last time you will ever see me again," said Jehan in a cool, calm tone.1036Please respect copyright.PENANALdyb6RGsWf
"For real?" I raised an eyebrow, not really believing that he was telling the truth.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAZeeTMTMVRD
"Yes, for real."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAaUvN1YF4zT
"So, you aren't going to come back and threaten me, right?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANA9ILeabBTYZ
"Yes. Maybe we will meet1036Please respect copyright.PENANAqhhi6buODk
someday in the future. The only reason why I threatened you was so that1036Please respect copyright.PENANAOHOiMEPWBJ
you could carry those diamonds for me from Paris to Korea."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAXVGhPGHxUo
"Why? Because we were using a private plane and there was less security?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAQGJYw4QNI6
"I'm impressed. You're actually smart."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAKqnG9hRXpH
"I watch too many movies." I gave him a smile, though I didn't really mean it.1036Please respect copyright.PENANATSmkQFF11f
"Figured. So, the teddy, please." Jehan had his arm outstretched again.1036Please respect copyright.PENANA0xsa7861ie
I took a deep breath. This was it. Once I give him the teddy, it will all be over and I can finally be in peace.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAZfm21Ha6Hh
Just as I was about to open my purse and take out the small teddy, a voice I recognised came behind me.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAQsa9zr5IIK
"Zoey, hey!"1036Please respect copyright.PENANATjTiPgQ8rL
Seungri? I quickly 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAcJLiR5ElR9
turned around and standing at the door of the restaurant, stood Seungri 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAvZOScQp3KB
with TOP beside him. I was so horrified. Oh no! What were they doing 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAmMxPmzu1mf
here?1036Please respect copyright.PENANApSb27fe7DP
They came over to our 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA169ZtZPQgE
table and I still couldn't believe that they were here. I tried to put 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA9AXXjMpMB7
up a smile but so far, I couldn't. I looked over at Jehan who had a grim1036Please respect copyright.PENANALqZWZZrpiq
look on his face. This was not supposed to happen. What were we going 1036Please respect copyright.PENANACdmoCLihgN
to do now?1036Please respect copyright.PENANAl4FWuJi1LA
"Hey, Zoey," said TOP. Then he turned to look at Jehan. "Mind if we sit?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAGF3M8A3eT4
"Sure," said Jehan giving TOP a smile. "We met at the fashion show in Paris."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAmSQdeLRpYo
"Ya, we did," said TOP as he sat down and Seungri sat opposite him. "Your name again?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAUpEEKJTySm
"Jehan."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA3vBhdAyiqh
"Nice to meet you," said Seungri. "I'm...."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAEwQE4eN3Sx
"There is no need for introductions, Seungri," said Jehan. "I already know who you are."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAqW4TTJ6p0o
"Good," said Seungri. "So, what brings you here?"1036Please respect copyright.PENANAQPLOqnqaDU
"I just came here to visit. I met Zoey again and decided to have lunch together."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAaB2IDwaCGN
"Oh." Seungri nodded his head.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAzK70loTZx0
"Ya," I said as I took a glass of water beside me and drank from the cup.1036Please respect copyright.PENANA411fBOg4JR
"Weren't you the same guy at the café with Zoey the other day?" TOP asked.1036Please respect copyright.PENANA1YQQjPPapb
I almost spit out the 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAOBm5gzYzPi
water in my mouth but I tried not to. I ended up choking instead. The 1036Please respect copyright.PENANApIgYvnKPah
three men all turned to look at me and I hit my chest as my eyes begun 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAJ530a6Czgx
to water.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAGWoQTT1W2E
"Are you okay, Zoey?" Seungri asked.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAl7NANRIzMs
"Ya, I'm fine," I said. How did they figure out that Jehan was the person I met at the café?1036Please respect copyright.PENANAplKIp7tTsZ
"Yes, Zoey and I met at the café the first day I got here," said Jehan, answering TOP's question.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAKD4CFsROCB
Jehan looked at me and I1036Please respect copyright.PENANAtVV2wpn4tS
bet he was also wondering how the others could have figured out all 1036Please respect copyright.PENANANQSQJiGaT1
this. I gave him a look that said I had no idea how they did.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAqZQvBYjvff
"May I ask what you're 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAXV58jVtvT3
doing here?" I asked looking at TOP and then at Seungri. This was 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAo5wc2ZxS5A
getting frustrating and I didn't want them to be here anymore.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAyn60XtZYLh
"Oh, we just came here 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAygLuLNsjHz
to see if we could shop for a few things," said Seungri. "Then we saw 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA4hGH1pW3E0
you as we were walking by and decided to say hi."1036Please respect copyright.PENANA2IqZfmhzU2
"Hope we didn't interrupt you with anything," said TOP. "You two seemed to be having a serious conversation."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAhDSYoNTiU2
"No, you didn't," said Jehan.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAan7ZwKy12c
Then a phone rang. It was Jehan's phone. We were all silent at the table as Jehan looked at his phone.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAinC9jlgfue
"I think it's time to leave," said Jehan putting his phone on silent. "I have a business meeting to attend to."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAM0bhdaMLqA
"Okay," I said. "We will meet some other time then before you leave for Paris."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAVUYaoefe6r
"Yes, we will," said 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAjSc04d2pqK
Jehan as he pulled our his wallet and pulled the cash out to pay for the1036Please respect copyright.PENANAsJKoR5Z3sA
bill, leaving it on the table. He quickly stood up from his chair.1036Please respect copyright.PENANApyj5CQ41Eg
"We will stay in touch," he said as he looked at me and then turned to face the others. "It was nice meeting you."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAVfSooWYJxL
"You too," said Seungri.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAOxjcx7zE8C
Jehan gave a small smile1036Please respect copyright.PENANA7RwYJmyLeo
and swiftly left the restaurant. I wanted to growl in frustration, but 1036Please respect copyright.PENANA2aHxn4RfOz
not in front of Seungri and TOP. When I thought I could finally give the1036Please respect copyright.PENANAZyx46NSx7D
teddy bear away, these two show up. Why was this happening to me?1036Please respect copyright.PENANAPPiDu9S3y9
"He seemed kind of nice," said Seungri. "Okay, let's go shopping."1036Please respect copyright.PENANAwsH3Jd7pDN
"Are you up for it, Zoey?" TOP asked, as he looked at me.1036Please respect copyright.PENANABOrVPqjusR
"Sounds fun," I said as enthusiastically as I could.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAzNKrQvhewb
"Great, let's go," said Seungri and we all stood up the table and headed out of the restaurant.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAY1tuSrqKNg
I wondered how I was 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAVG0dVT3DLH
going to have fun when I knew what I had come here for hadn't gone as 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAN9XR5Z0FwZ
planned. And all that still meant that I still had a gun pointed to my 1036Please respect copyright.PENANAZwqvrNfre8
head until I give the teddy bear away.1036Please respect copyright.PENANAQdNqyGLVsG
This was just great!
