I tapped my foot 799Please respect copyright.PENANAvG4mbQS6Bh
impatiently onto the floor, not because I was waiting for the doors to 799Please respect copyright.PENANAHZ1zX3sgwd
open. But because I couldn't figure out what to say when I finally got 799Please respect copyright.PENANAs5FtMHYRom
out. I was scratching my head as I thought of what to do. Was saying 799Please respect copyright.PENANAngvB1yPjIe
"hi" or "how are you" going to help? I wasn't too sure how I was going 799Please respect copyright.PENANACFFvR69Y2F
to start this conversation.799Please respect copyright.PENANAR08cqb4VBI
And besides, the person I799Please respect copyright.PENANAGdfm0PXJd2
was about to meet, wasn't really expecting me to be here. So I better 799Please respect copyright.PENANAmuq4PVjTqz
had a reasonable explanation for coming, which I already had. Or else, I799Please respect copyright.PENANAxpCDQKJstT
might just kill myself out of embarrassment.799Please respect copyright.PENANAuvTTrqiLUP
There was a small ding 799Please respect copyright.PENANAhychkX4zv7
sound when the elevator stopped. I realised that I had finally arrived. I799Please respect copyright.PENANAwlAwHRRwd6
looked towards the doors as they started to slide open. I gulped. I 799Please respect copyright.PENANAfrpOrHVmSR
hope everything was going to go fine like I expected it to.799Please respect copyright.PENANANPN73cX70R
When the doors fully 799Please respect copyright.PENANAPD8waXhTmI
opened, I hesitated to walk out. But then, I stepped out quickly before I799Please respect copyright.PENANAvwVUjKnEs8
even had the thought of chickening out at the last minute.799Please respect copyright.PENANAi2zS5ptsQ5
"Zoey? What are you doing here?"799Please respect copyright.PENANAKv3lxvOVR7
I was staring at 799Please respect copyright.PENANAwF4m3xFNDG
G-Dragon who was standing in the living area of his apartment. He looked799Please respect copyright.PENANAuD5sIkXAJp
a little surprised by my sudden visit and I could see he was a little 799Please respect copyright.PENANAXtv0Vm2snl
disappointed too.799Please respect copyright.PENANAzqk944DRPe
"Hi, GD," I said as I stood there. "I know you weren't really expecting me here."799Please respect copyright.PENANAlkRHVMzx6j
"When I was told a lady had come to see me, I thought it might be Sam," said G-Dragon.799Please respect copyright.PENANAsakewBUc0r
"Ya, I know." I was a little nervous as I played with my fingers. "I had to come and talk to you."799Please respect copyright.PENANAmsUBu6Gn8X
"Please, do come in."799Please respect copyright.PENANAnHMFVOt7yj
"Thanks," I said as I walked into the living room and sat on the couch. G-Dragon sat right next to me.799Please respect copyright.PENANAiTqUtAasQK
"Do you need anything?" he asked.799Please respect copyright.PENANAeTQaD5siH2
"No, thanks," I replied. "I'm good."799Please respect copyright.PENANAjsW2qQbgWc
"How's Sam doing?"799Please respect copyright.PENANAraMV2xGqTt
"Oh, she's fine," I replied, playing with the strap of my purse on my lap. "Don't you two talk anymore? Like over the phone?"799Please respect copyright.PENANAYXQSkOta6O
"We do, but our 799Please respect copyright.PENANA1kSCKl4veO
conversations don't last long." G-Dragon looked a little distant when he799Please respect copyright.PENANAmOBIew1kng
said that. And I could tell the thought of Sam had completely taken 799Please respect copyright.PENANAQQvD6OXsjE
over his mind.799Please respect copyright.PENANA2mkJt6ZMqR
I didn't say anything for a moment as I thought of what to say next.799Please respect copyright.PENANAz79QVOof1e
"I know you feel bad that Sam's been ignoring you lately," I said. "It's so unlike her to do so, trust me."799Please respect copyright.PENANAeCVn4mswku
G-Dragon leaned back on to the couch. "Do you have any idea why?"799Please respect copyright.PENANApFhoRLTuV6
"Since I know her so well, yes. I do."799Please respect copyright.PENANA1ck5zK9kEn
"What is it then? To be honest, I feel like I've done something wrong for her to be ignoring me."799Please respect copyright.PENANAmYOrLpol7u
"She's not ignoring you, GD."799Please respect copyright.PENANAj3AtVugIjv
"What is she doing then?799Please respect copyright.PENANAMtni8MXCeG
It's now been two days since we last had a real conversation. That was 799Please respect copyright.PENANAivORJal8kG
after the issue with Jehan was sorted out at the arts centre."799Please respect copyright.PENANAYSGiCbByAK
I laughed when I remembered Jehan and his goons being arrested. "I'll never forget that day. It was awesome."799Please respect copyright.PENANAWoMt7jA9SG
"Ya. And people can't stop talking about how they loved our performance. And since then, Sam doesn't talk to me anymore."799Please respect copyright.PENANAqqXBFCMQAB
With that last statement, I realised just how sad G-Dragon was with all this. And that's why I was here.799Please respect copyright.PENANAPg5pxaoTPI
I knew Sam had been 799Please respect copyright.PENANAZkD8FRXzP1
ignoring G-Dragon the day after the arts center incident. She and I were799Please respect copyright.PENANA57z4XBXOG4
in the lounge going through social media, right after I came back from 799Please respect copyright.PENANAEsdjhyXrHy
the police station to give my statement. We kept on receiving messages 799Please respect copyright.PENANAJue2tOhv6c
from fans and family back home because of our stunning performance the 799Please respect copyright.PENANAERdHtz2fsw
night before. When her phone started to ring, she completely ignored the799Please respect copyright.PENANAtCY3hLTlDF
call. Her phone rang several times that day and it was so unlike her 799Please respect copyright.PENANA9mgmmyTDCU
not to answer. When I checked who called, I grew a little worried.799Please respect copyright.PENANAoD4CtniSPd
The day after, we all 799Please respect copyright.PENANAzQEcetttiS
decided to meet as BigBang and The Toxins, just to hang out. And 799Please respect copyright.PENANAwJyq6Jicb4
surprisingly, Sam wasn't up for it. So she stayed back at the hotel. 799Please respect copyright.PENANAKdGyO0dPvo
Which for me, was so unlike her.799Please respect copyright.PENANAaqf1YAumun
"Why do you think she's doing this?" G-Dragon asked.799Please respect copyright.PENANA6IN43XqI3E
"It's because she doesn't want to get hurt," I replied.799Please respect copyright.PENANAOnkgCey2vn
"What do you mean?"799Please respect copyright.PENANA5OFB67UneJ
I rolled my eyes. One 799Please respect copyright.PENANAOQcbpaonLL
thing I didn't like, was explaining things to people. But this was 799Please respect copyright.PENANAbmWGHHKvzw
G-Dragon I was talking to, so, I ignored that for a minute.799Please respect copyright.PENANAfjT6OAc7It
"Sam likes you, a lot," I799Please respect copyright.PENANAOEq6RLoJbF
said. "And she's one person who doesn't like to get too attached 799Please respect copyright.PENANAxStOoL9HYo
because she knows that if she does, she's likely to get hurt. And she 799Please respect copyright.PENANAs1IjP9zu30
doesn't want that."799Please respect copyright.PENANAC70AAAwYaE
G-Dragon shrugged his shoulders, waiting for me to continue. "So?"799Please respect copyright.PENANAyXcohzm5e9
"We'll be leaving soon. 799Please respect copyright.PENANARhQ2Zn7zrJ
Well, soon after the music video is released. And trust me, she feels 799Please respect copyright.PENANA50w2Q07oxS
awful that we have to go. That's why she's practically ignoring everyone799Please respect copyright.PENANAP5FLjthOJp
around her and being so distant."799Please respect copyright.PENANAcRkWO6xVPu
"For a moment, I thought I might have done something wrong."799Please respect copyright.PENANAfIeq0Mw9fB
"You haven't done 799Please respect copyright.PENANAI9MMRGx3r2
anything. That's just how Sam is. She thinks ignoring you till she 799Please respect copyright.PENANAlhZILwmNbK
leaves looks like the best solution not to get hurt. But it isn't 799Please respect copyright.PENANAz7oYSureI4
working." I said that with a smirk.799Please respect copyright.PENANAOlh0xY9SYx
"Why do you say that?"799Please respect copyright.PENANAPFlBEkYDGh
"I don't really know for799Please respect copyright.PENANAeo8LadRZfn
sure. She's been acting real funny lately. But I can tell she misses 799Please respect copyright.PENANAssItLWmMCR
BigBang, especially you. She just doesn't want to admit it."799Please respect copyright.PENANAw40Ok7AJNu
"Ya. The others are really worried about her too."799Please respect copyright.PENANA33JVVqgK60
"Why don't you just talk799Please respect copyright.PENANAVvClFfsMYQ
to her personally? In that way, you'll be able to open her up. Because 799Please respect copyright.PENANAb9lrmoDSTT
right now, she is so closed up like a bud that she isn't even talking to799Please respect copyright.PENANAKl06CdypG4
some of us either."799Please respect copyright.PENANAJmQmiOVlgy
"Wait, she isn't talking to you?" G-Dragon asked with an eyebrow raised.799Please respect copyright.PENANASOnPXdg7Sp
"Not really. She just 799Please respect copyright.PENANAznAQiTekrw
isn't herself is all I can say. But I bet you talking to her face to 799Please respect copyright.PENANABhZ9zs5S2Q
face will break that little state she's in."799Please respect copyright.PENANArDLpH2GnzQ
"I have so much to tell her, I'm afraid I might upset her."799Please respect copyright.PENANAKmWfY2IAuK
"Don't tell me you're going to ask her to be your girlfriend?"799Please respect copyright.PENANAn7BFhHNJj0
G-Dragon looked at me and I could tell he was blushing, even when he was trying to hide it by putting up a stoic face.799Please respect copyright.PENANARMAk58OwPq
"How do you know that?" he asked.799Please respect copyright.PENANAmgaS2zO5yl
"Is that not obvious? I know that if you ask her to be your girlfriend, she will say no because of us leaving Korea."799Please respect copyright.PENANABqAKkvuAvW
"True. And she was really strong on the fact that we couldn't be together."799Please respect copyright.PENANAz2GQLZgPYk
"Ya, well, she said that to Daesung, and he understood and respected her wishes. I believe you also have to do the same."799Please respect copyright.PENANAkCOqSbYu4O
"I don't think I want to."799Please respect copyright.PENANAisMYUSg7oJ
"Trust me, GD. If you 799Please respect copyright.PENANAVXvLGdFKd3
really want to be on Sam's good side, you'll do it. Besides, isn't it 799Please respect copyright.PENANAsGL7aQujRS
that if you love someone, you will let them go?"799Please respect copyright.PENANAg33ePNmFYM
G-Dragon thought for a moment. "I guess you're right, but, I don't think I want to let her go."799Please respect copyright.PENANAS8OxrQ49bH
"Well, I think you 799Please respect copyright.PENANAcFjN4VIzwZ
should. Don't take this the wrong way," I said quickly when G-Dragon 799Please respect copyright.PENANAGLI6izCKIU
gave me a certain look. "But, if you two were really meant to be 799Please respect copyright.PENANAHmo7DSAdlm
together, then destiny in one way or another will play it's part."799Please respect copyright.PENANAQkwck6afj1
"You think so?"799Please respect copyright.PENANA8OyM8QCFsX
I smiled and nodded. "I 799Please respect copyright.PENANAD7RlhQGXCd
know so. I feel she and you are perfect for each other." I tapped my 799Please respect copyright.PENANAZdoF0ng14J
chin as I looked up at the ceiling. "But then again, there's Daesung, so799Please respect copyright.PENANAWOqZRakPij
I can't really tell."799Please respect copyright.PENANAIL6yVI24qc
"Are you serious?"799Please respect copyright.PENANAy7BOY78K8x
"I'm joking," I laughed. "Well, I think it's obvious that she likes you."799Please respect copyright.PENANArK7ayAEmkb
"But she kissed Daesung last time."799Please respect copyright.PENANA2dkhIbyWoh
"Are you really bringing that up now?"799Please respect copyright.PENANA3rvoW42NIz
"Just because I like her so much doesn't mean that I can easily forget that. I don't really care anyway."799Please respect copyright.PENANAmmg7tBtsoK
I smiled when I realised799Please respect copyright.PENANA0psi7iG6Yi
why he said that. He hadn't kissed Sam yet. I didn't want to taunt him 799Please respect copyright.PENANATldnroKdFc
so I kept quiet. He was already suffering and I didn't want to make 799Please respect copyright.PENANAKXr7JcSago
things worse. But still, I smiled in my heart, finding it so cute that 799Please respect copyright.PENANAtC94OILWX8
he was dying just to kiss Sam. I was also dying inside, feeling the urge799Please respect copyright.PENANA3GkMzGTr81
to taunt him so bad.799Please respect copyright.PENANA2TAdDMPntY
"Well, I still think you should talk to her," I said. "Because I'm tired of the way Sam's been acting."799Please respect copyright.PENANA8KTBNPhm93
"But I'm afraid she might not want to talk to me," said G-Dragon. "Should I go to see her instead?"799Please respect copyright.PENANAV6t3gxx1TZ
"That will be so much better. Because calling her just to meet won't work."799Please respect copyright.PENANAQffRi4K1S9
"Okay, let's go to the hotel right now."799Please respect copyright.PENANABDjaXpkoH1
"You want to go now?" I asked, looking a little surprised.799Please respect copyright.PENANAwD830tv04Q
"Well, yes. What's wrong?"799Please respect copyright.PENANAdBXottvjaG
"Oh, ummm...." I looked away so that I wouldn't have to look at G-Dragon in the face. "She went to meet up with Derrick today."799Please respect copyright.PENANAsw7rJL93vo
"What? Why? She went to meet him and not me?"799Please respect copyright.PENANAmKlfVNRkFo
"Stop acting jealous." I799Please respect copyright.PENANA4fvm1fFCTU
turned to look at him, then looked away again. "That's why I didn't 799Please respect copyright.PENANA0rqIkoTKIU
want to tell you. She had to meet him since he is leaving for Paris 799Please respect copyright.PENANAXcHa2V9WDR
today. Jehan was deported back to France to face trail and he had to 799Please respect copyright.PENANAx0GERWf161
leave too. So she had to go and say goodbye."799Please respect copyright.PENANAD5dTf7o1Up
"Does she like him?"799Please respect copyright.PENANAly0neCVltX
I smiled and when I 799Please respect copyright.PENANA3yMr68lN9r
turned to look at him, it disappeared. "She only likes him as a friend, 799Please respect copyright.PENANAvOCci56sX4
don't worry about it. He's really good looking though."799Please respect copyright.PENANAI0qMrsy2av
"I'm glad he's leaving."799Please respect copyright.PENANAtt4Z3agHFg
"Why? You're scared that he and Sam might hook up and date? I doubt it. Not when Sam already likes you. So, I'm not worried."799Please respect copyright.PENANAqZ7Lepwcer
"I've to see her though. I've to give her something."799Please respect copyright.PENANAPPDq9vzyM9
"What is it?" Now I was curious.799Please respect copyright.PENANAgJ24oViu3K
"It's a present. I planned to give it to her two days ago, but I couldn't."799Please respect copyright.PENANAgATEAEzdgz
My phone soon started to ring in my purse and when I took it out, it was Sam.799Please respect copyright.PENANAQqk5wD248m
"Sam's calling," I said as I looked at G-Dragon and quickly answered the call.799Please respect copyright.PENANAhVq3C7gTda
"Hey, Sam," I said as I put the phone to my ear.799Please respect copyright.PENANA9AB7INW2sd
"Hey, I'm heading back to the hotel," said Sam. "Are you still around?"799Please respect copyright.PENANA0WaNLwYMHd
"Ummm, no I'm not. Are you on your way back now?"799Please respect copyright.PENANAkmykRsT6JB
"Yes. I went to see Derrick off with Christine at the airport and we are on our way back right now."799Please respect copyright.PENANABQsFeSl7Hy
"Alright, then, you'll find me at the hotel."799Please respect copyright.PENANAX6D0MJAi45
I quickly cut the call and stood up from the couch. G-Dragon was startled by my sudden quick action.799Please respect copyright.PENANAEa8uVmVJdK
"GD, let's go," I said as I looked at him.799Please respect copyright.PENANA4lnjCUQsko
"Where?" he asked.799Please respect copyright.PENANAa0sYEa1d3S
"To the hotel. We're 799Please respect copyright.PENANAACDszCZNN5
going to get there before Sam does. So quickly go and get her present. 799Please respect copyright.PENANAiz9o0fwJ9o
And whatever it is, I don't want to miss a thing when you give it to 799Please respect copyright.PENANAKxAQ5GclXI
her."799Please respect copyright.PENANA1MpgSHOqo5
***799Please respect copyright.PENANAoxfnN0lt8x
Sam's P.O.V:799Please respect copyright.PENANASRXxyvN5en
"Do you think the colour799Please respect copyright.PENANAvYmNdlOYfW
green is going to match with these shoes?" Christine asked me as I sat 799Please respect copyright.PENANAHynbzq9wW0
next to her, showing me a pair of shoes on her phone.799Please respect copyright.PENANAGb117VC3Zz
"Mmm, they will," I said799Please respect copyright.PENANAiyRYsENhca
as I took a brief look at the shoes and turned the other way, looking 799Please respect copyright.PENANAjHSeT10QUO
out through the car window. "Just make sure it's army green."799Please respect copyright.PENANACOZrbGfs7a
"Okay," said Christine as she kept on looking at other different shoes to buy online. "I bet Zoey would love these shoes."799Please respect copyright.PENANALrZIEli04j
"I know she will."799Please respect copyright.PENANAChHVGWp3ug
"Are you okay, Sam?"799Please respect copyright.PENANAJZPrVaXuKG
"Ya, I am," I replied as I turned to look at her. "Just a little sad."799Please respect copyright.PENANATafIgtJMzX
"You've been like that for a while now. Anything on your mind?"799Please respect copyright.PENANA8kbTOnqTgc
I thought before I answered, "there is a lot going through my mind. Things that I know I can't change, even if I wanted to."799Please respect copyright.PENANADVcTtKCciH
"Is it about GD?"799Please respect copyright.PENANAzMEuUGClro
"That and a whole lot more," I said as I gave Christine a small smile. "I'm really going to miss this place when we leave."799Please respect copyright.PENANApfqO94LW2y
"Is that why you're acting so distant with all of us?"799Please respect copyright.PENANAZQP36U30oI
I raised an eyebrow and gave Christine a serious look. "I have?"799Please respect copyright.PENANA923vjEBWUf
"Pretty much, yes. Yesterday you didn't even want to hang out with us. And you've been ignoring GD's calls and everybody else."799Please respect copyright.PENANAuzhAMUY6TN
She was right though. As799Please respect copyright.PENANA1EG0eJ2X4e
much as I didn't want to admit it, all I was doing right now was to 799Please respect copyright.PENANA3bjwZ4Btf3
completely detach myself from BigBang and this place. I felt if I did, I799Please respect copyright.PENANA4fqCxOcVyZ
wouldn't get too attached and when its time to leave, I wouldn't feel 799Please respect copyright.PENANADpazNDS31V
so bad.799Please respect copyright.PENANALriDnKo0Pp
I was always like this. 799Please respect copyright.PENANAZOW1A70IPc
Not trying to get too attached because it hurts when you finally have to799Please respect copyright.PENANA0PTu00XUWk
leave behind the people you care about the most. And I really grew 799Please respect copyright.PENANAmyzxDocPvL
attached to BigBang despite us being so different from one another.799Please respect copyright.PENANAU1pDS2zv8L
And now that I know we 799Please respect copyright.PENANAwEvzXjCH2k
might be leaving soon, was killing me. I never knew I would get too 799Please respect copyright.PENANAZKPeiXhRIR
attached to this place. But with BigBang and the loving fans, they made 799Please respect copyright.PENANApPn7HkdAkX
my stay here feel like home. And I bet the other Toxins felt that way 799Please respect copyright.PENANAWIXhgYR5kI
too.799Please respect copyright.PENANAdH3d3tfYsY
"You're right, Christine," I said. "But I can't say that I'm ignoring people. Not in a bad way or anything."799Please respect copyright.PENANAibP4us6dBj
"You just want to detach yourself because you don't want to get hurt. We know you all too well, Sam."799Please respect copyright.PENANAvMNvfbBiwo
I almost burst out laughing. "Ya, you do. I realise that the more I try to ignore them, the worse it is for me."799Please respect copyright.PENANANTEdp4jYe7
I looked at Christine who had been looking at me the whole time. "Well, it's about time you admitted it."799Please respect copyright.PENANAmVHSP0E5qD
I leaned back on my seat and looked out of the window staring at the streets of Seoul. I smiled to myself.799Please respect copyright.PENANAx4H3F7b3T4
"Maybe I should drop 799Please respect copyright.PENANAufgzzoJ7TB
this little act of mine and go with the flow. I mean, I'm leaving, but I799Please respect copyright.PENANAW1JbH4SLAK
would rather enjoy my last days here and create more memories, you 799Please respect copyright.PENANAZGv8u4AHjL
know?"799Please respect copyright.PENANAuUpTZVMeuS
"You've no idea how much799Please respect copyright.PENANAX6iDlowWcY
I wanted to hear you say that," said Christine as she held my shoulder.799Please respect copyright.PENANABe3b1urkwm
"Everyone has been so worried about you, they thought you would be 799Please respect copyright.PENANA9pPxta64gn
ignoring us forever."799Please respect copyright.PENANA0SEIuxg2cj
"Ha. Even I can't do 799Please respect copyright.PENANA6qTbUALqth
that for that long. Trust me, these last few days I have been dying 799Please respect copyright.PENANA2CuyJbJMui
inside. And I realise how much I miss BigBang."799Please respect copyright.PENANAPsRzKggQ4t
"And what about G-Dragon? Don't you miss him?"799Please respect copyright.PENANAvfdth7Zk82
I blushed when Christine asked me that. And I felt a wave of guilt flood over me.799Please respect copyright.PENANADszIOZThUG
"I miss him, a lot," I 799Please respect copyright.PENANAss8QGbWZgs
found myself saying, as I thought of G-Dragon. "And I've been dodging 799Please respect copyright.PENANA1xUPkM9HBV
his calls, lately. Only picking up when he calls too much."799Please respect copyright.PENANAv5LkfuVdRu
"You're so mean, Sam," 799Please respect copyright.PENANAdJlIOjcREk
said Christine, looking upset as she folded her arms. "You know he loves799Please respect copyright.PENANADrIfSSH3G4
you and you're treating him like he's done something wrong."799Please respect copyright.PENANAxQC1Jj21o7
I blushed when Christine799Please respect copyright.PENANAUDUBqZOgnr
said the "L" word. I swore that I even saw the driver of the car look 799Please respect copyright.PENANAXOaw0LdJGq
through the rear view mirror and smile at me.799Please respect copyright.PENANAwwdtCjzE1p
"Ya, I'm horrible!" I covered my face with my hands. "And he's probably been sick and worried about me."799Please respect copyright.PENANAuIJHkr84hz
"Well, obviously. You've to make up for it."799Please respect copyright.PENANAMCEJidUqec
"I've to make up to a lot of people."799Please respect copyright.PENANAPfMxL92aXo
"True."799Please respect copyright.PENANAmVwwXBBVpH
"Well, when we get to the hotel, I'll try and see what I can do about it."799Please respect copyright.PENANAk2gskB0GWY
"Good," said Christine. "I'm glad to see that you're back to your old self."799Please respect copyright.PENANA9jxAYGYpMU
"Mmm, I just hope that the guys don't get mad at me after how I have been treating them lately."799Please respect copyright.PENANAeBBYAuogZA
"BigBang? No way. And if799Please respect copyright.PENANAOcSPYAAr0M
it comes to GD, he will treat this like it was nothing but a phase. I 799Please respect copyright.PENANAoH4bKvyc0q
wouldn't be too worried if I were you."799Please respect copyright.PENANAV776ifJk9G
I smiled and didn't say a799Please respect copyright.PENANAf8wspgZZzO
word. I knew he would never be mad at me no matter what I do. He's 799Please respect copyright.PENANAyW7QSAIRcj
proved that to me so many times before, especially when we never settled799Please respect copyright.PENANAcyrc7fGGAU
our differences during the first few weeks.799Please respect copyright.PENANAcWLS52KuE1
We arrived at the hotel and Christine and I got out of the car.799Please respect copyright.PENANAIAGy8rHOd3
"So, are you going to call GD and talk?" Christine asked as we walked into the lobby together.799Please respect copyright.PENANAzLybkH3Vry
"I have to, don't I? 799Please respect copyright.PENANAxvF5dcfeFv
Besides, Zoey isn't around, the boys left with Seungri and Daesung to 799Please respect copyright.PENANAsJODbRjHKe
attend a video game convention. And Lee and Collins are busy as usual. 799Please respect copyright.PENANAHE5TmxCKxq
So this might be the perfect time to call him and talk."799Please respect copyright.PENANAsXu5nAG6St
"Will you tell him to come here?"799Please respect copyright.PENANAPGqc7Ds8Hf
"Ya. I know I should be making the effort to see him, but I would rather he comes here. In fact, let me call him right now."799Please respect copyright.PENANAGkXhAQbrEQ
As we headed towards the799Please respect copyright.PENANAzQyupw93SS
elevator, I took my phone out of my purse and when Christine and I got 799Please respect copyright.PENANAGIXTtpMP0l
in the elevator, I had already dialled his number and had my phone to my799Please respect copyright.PENANAMXaGTh9OUk
ear.799Please respect copyright.PENANAz0ZNdsxbvD
His phone was ringing when I pressed the button to our floor and the elevator doors quickly closed in front of us.799Please respect copyright.PENANAiFInuCPSNw
When he finally picked up, he sounded surprised.799Please respect copyright.PENANAmVQ5AmCFg9
"Sam?"799Please respect copyright.PENANA4xkaWho0Co
My mouth stayed opened. I799Please respect copyright.PENANA8MVLNpxzPC
didn't know what to say next. How could I tell him I needed him here at799Please respect copyright.PENANAOOefhymeav
the hotel right now? After all that's happened these past two days, I 799Please respect copyright.PENANALBR2iFkyYX
felt a little guilty calling him.799Please respect copyright.PENANAie3j35JXFQ
"Sam, are you there?" G-Dragon asked.799Please respect copyright.PENANArgBe54ytGS
"Hi, Ji Yong," I said, clearing my throat. "Ummm, are you busy today?"799Please respect copyright.PENANAwwPCOhygDY
I looked at Christine who was looking at me.799Please respect copyright.PENANAQ4gX3Kzdr4
"No, I'm quite free today," G-Dragon replied. "What is it? Do you want us to meet?"799Please respect copyright.PENANADTWhZOK85n
For a moment, I was ready to say, "no, I was just asking." But I went on to say, "yes."799Please respect copyright.PENANAYzGVG20zeM
There was silence at the end of the line and I grew worried. What if he said he didn't want to see me?799Please respect copyright.PENANAWlghgdbJkG
The doors to the 799Please respect copyright.PENANAdt9TEh14Mm
elevator stood open and standing right there in the hall was G-Dragon 799Please respect copyright.PENANAbzeSp9azNt
with his phone to his ear. My heart raced when I saw him and I felt some799Please respect copyright.PENANAXhGyOe4Hyt
sense of relief. Christine who stood beside me gasped when she saw him 799Please respect copyright.PENANAhEzW1u4pd6
waiting for us in the hall. I quickly cut the call and put my phone 799Please respect copyright.PENANAMp8ino05Qs
away.799Please respect copyright.PENANAVbyNJv2G6R
"You're here?" Christine asked him instead of me.799Please respect copyright.PENANAYvKxJ56Pmi
"I had to come," said G-Dragon, his eyes had never left mine as he put his phone away. "She and I need to talk."799Please respect copyright.PENANAXcHnOiRSMo
Christine stepped out of the elevator and I quickly followed before the doors could close.799Please respect copyright.PENANA25rPD97MPy
Zoey appeared from the 799Please respect copyright.PENANASyuOXiizxA
lounge and I knew right there that G-Dragon was here because she told 799Please respect copyright.PENANAtYjlK6ISBm
him to come. She gave me a smile when I looked at her, and that 799Please respect copyright.PENANAHUQx3vPfkC
confirmed everything.799Please respect copyright.PENANAkey2YJsHv9
"Hey," said Zoey, giving799Please respect copyright.PENANA0S48XJTOZ8
me a small wave. "You two need to talk so I figured that G-Dragon 799Please respect copyright.PENANAFvfsFXSxOo
should come here. Hope you aren't mad."799Please respect copyright.PENANANga7ZTTloB
"No," I quickly shook my799Please respect copyright.PENANACr8yO1r5dQ
head nervously. "No, no. It's fine. I was also planning on meeting up 799Please respect copyright.PENANALxCyYjbkDS
with him, so, its fine." I scratched the back of my head.799Please respect copyright.PENANAVPhYzBR3Ag
"Ummm," Christine went 799Please respect copyright.PENANAyeSm7wh4Ez
to looking at me and then at G-Dragon, looking confused yet amused by 799Please respect copyright.PENANAy54tMlLeLw
all this and wondering what to do next. "I will....I mean, we, Zoey and 799Please respect copyright.PENANAikzzeYDNzL
I, will be in the room if you need us."799Please respect copyright.PENANAduw0XUdMHA
Christine and Zoey soon 799Please respect copyright.PENANAYtXh7gGFKu
headed for the rooms. I quickly went to the lounge, without taking a 799Please respect copyright.PENANAbTWFnzbRLN
look at G-Dragon. I could hear G-Dragon coming right behind me and when I799Please respect copyright.PENANAtSRl9ktDov
stopped to stand in the middle of the room, I took a deep breath, 799Please respect copyright.PENANAwSkQ9IIQgW
trying to calm myself down.799Please respect copyright.PENANAXAuwHtFPwB
"I'm glad, you wanted to talk," said G-Dragon. "Because there is so much I need to....."799Please respect copyright.PENANAOs3EhwqgZp
I quickly cut him short 799Please respect copyright.PENANAN6PZSruvRf
when I turned around and the next thing I knew, I had my arms wrapped 799Please respect copyright.PENANAZJPPiUp3Fy
around him in a hug. I can't really tell how all of that happened. It 799Please respect copyright.PENANAso2X0DgDnX
felt like an immediate impulse.799Please respect copyright.PENANAmTNf1Q0x6T
"I missed you too," said G-Dragon as he also wrapped his arms around me.799Please respect copyright.PENANAQZD61SeVo5
It felt like we had 799Please respect copyright.PENANA5nCiBICOwe
stayed like that in each other's arm for a while. I wanted to say like 799Please respect copyright.PENANAPCDrrFAy2R
this forever, but I knew all that was too good to be true. But I knew I 799Please respect copyright.PENANAxkXeDoJMIv
was never going to regret doing it now because I never know when we will799Please respect copyright.PENANAN2VYUWE6AP
ever do so again.799Please respect copyright.PENANADAqm6wVvUm
"I'm sorry," I said as I pulled away from him and looked at him.799Please respect copyright.PENANA9Je5QxDMFU
"You have a lot of 799Please respect copyright.PENANAWHZmXtALOr
explaining to do, my little kitty," said G-Dragon as he held my chin. He799Please respect copyright.PENANATV48QzuOoZ
was smiling at me and my heart was beating so fast and I was blushing 799Please respect copyright.PENANAD0ss5tv8MX
like crazy.799Please respect copyright.PENANA5RjRHEE1sg
"I know, I'm sorry. It's just that, I've been such a jerk ignoring you like that. It's that I didn't want to get...."799Please respect copyright.PENANATIa6WNXxEj
"...hurt." G-Dragon finished the sentence before I could. "Zoey told me."799Please respect copyright.PENANAyjD7gDnoOo
"I'm surprised that she brought you here." I had my eyebrow raised.799Please respect copyright.PENANALtGq9I1c2L
"Well, she noticed that you were a bit off these past two days. I was a little surprised myself when she came to see me."799Please respect copyright.PENANAuKqaVgv0ZP
I smiled. "I'm glad you came. And I'm really sorry for my awful behaviour. I should apologise to the others too."799Please respect copyright.PENANA9od9zfoB1B
"I'm not mad at you and you don't need to apologise for anything, Sam. I completely understand you."799Please respect copyright.PENANArsKJhWGWGo
I looked down at my feet799Please respect copyright.PENANAbrvDQx8z9R
and moved them here and there. I was feeling embarrassed. "You were 799Please respect copyright.PENANAh2YjexQqRS
never mad at me, weren't you?" I asked.799Please respect copyright.PENANAi41hsKVkTq
"No. For some reason I can never stay mad at you for anything."799Please respect copyright.PENANA2HTPHqdV0U
"I'm guessing we have a lot to talk about. Why don't we sit down?" I was still looking down at the floor.799Please respect copyright.PENANASSMlGcGfLc
"Sure."799Please respect copyright.PENANA4KjBWBnPFT
We went to sit on the 799Please respect copyright.PENANASOlIEc4VcN
couch, facing each other. I tucked a strand of my hair behind my ear, 799Please respect copyright.PENANA5vtu1MpbHi
wondering where to start. We sat in silence, not saying a word for a 799Please respect copyright.PENANAZd0zGdXlot
while.799Please respect copyright.PENANAODquQlDYzh
"Aren't you going to say anything?" G-Dragon asked.799Please respect copyright.PENANAYB1wmMn8Hx
"What's left to say?" I asked as I looked at him and shrugged my shoulders. "I can keep apologising if you want me to."799Please respect copyright.PENANA5sRtGkoWbw
"I want to know what's on your mind."799Please respect copyright.PENANAeeAjMSJsT4
"I thought Zoey already told you."799Please respect copyright.PENANA2iC6dTnkEr
"I want to hear your version."799Please respect copyright.PENANAyBA9OXIKFD
I raised an eyebrow. 799Please respect copyright.PENANAkBe3xEHk50
There were some things I didn't like to explain to people, but G-Dragon 799Please respect copyright.PENANAUhbKmg3xcC
deserved to know what was in my mind at the moment and how I felt.799Please respect copyright.PENANAyFaUhnFSYv
"I'm scared." I looked 799Please respect copyright.PENANAaJmKiUtymn
down at my fingers on my lap. "I'm scared of losing and leaving all this799Please respect copyright.PENANASCMjAVdbst
behind. Since I came here, I only thought, I would come here, do the 799Please respect copyright.PENANA30dUMa0MRF
collaboration with you guys and leave. But a lot more happened. Quite 799Please respect copyright.PENANA39nwFHVoVq
out of the ordinary, actually. First off, you and I had some unsettling 799Please respect copyright.PENANA6ng5Eev0Y6
differences."799Please respect copyright.PENANAO03nLiKH1U
G-Dragon chuckled. "Don't remind me," he said.799Please respect copyright.PENANA1Zv29g2uNM
"Then came Zoey and her issue with Jehan. Which, thank God, was all sorted out."799Please respect copyright.PENANANR8BUoTIdi
"And it was all thanks to you," said G-Dragon as I looked up at him and he smiled.799Please respect copyright.PENANAIvUKcjtMG5
"And after all that, 799Please respect copyright.PENANAFKPqPJbUFr
we'll be leaving soon after the music video is released. I know it will 799Please respect copyright.PENANA7XBmaN1zhJ
take a while, but each day that passes by, I feel we might just leave 799Please respect copyright.PENANAWl1lCAhyyk
tomorrow. That's why I've been avoiding you guys so much. Because, I'm 799Please respect copyright.PENANAQtdBUzieHi
trying to detach myself from all that's happened and the people around 799Please respect copyright.PENANAvP07cW01Ka
me. But that's only making me feel even more miserable."799Please respect copyright.PENANAHDy701Su5z
"I understand you, Sam. 799Please respect copyright.PENANAb5hCFDDdjo
Leaving people you care about behind hurts. But with all the memories we799Please respect copyright.PENANAdddJ0kH8Pv
have of each other, I don't think you'll ever feel we're apart."799Please respect copyright.PENANAmGMwVL6Pry
"You're right. I figured that on my way back. And I think it's time I just enjoy my last days here."799Please respect copyright.PENANA00KZCUDkvl
"I'm glad," said G-Dragon as he came a little closer. "There is also something you and I should talk about."799Please respect copyright.PENANAoXOm0PFg3n
I gave him a questioning look. "What else is there to talk about apart from my unusual behaviour?"799Please respect copyright.PENANA4m6sZOlH7D
"You and me."799Please respect copyright.PENANA8dQNWis1nT
My eyes grew wide and my sudden surprise soon turned to sudden frustration.799Please respect copyright.PENANAQk9p5XlbM5
"Please, not that!" I shook my head, feeling uncomfortable. "I don't want to talk about it."799Please respect copyright.PENANAYYbVNNg9Yt
For whatever reason, G-Dragon didn't take my reaction seriously and just laughed. I turned to look at him and I was startled.799Please respect copyright.PENANAbVDbrE2LPJ
"Now I see why you've been specifically avoiding me," said G-Dragon. "It's because of us, isn't it?"799Please respect copyright.PENANALURbBJnDnq
I sighed as I gave in. 799Please respect copyright.PENANASrCZS3iuXw
"True. It hurts to know that you and I can never be....you know." I 799Please respect copyright.PENANAHQXMALPDpR
hesitated to say the word. But I carried on anyway. "I'm still going to 799Please respect copyright.PENANAKtqQcKseVY
stand my ground on this one. And I'm just hoping you won't be stubborn 799Please respect copyright.PENANAnCwkrowTz8
enough to disagree with me like you have always done."799Please respect copyright.PENANAZrlfWVXhG6
"I completely agree with you, Sam."799Please respect copyright.PENANAIbVFyeByhC
"Huh?" I was confused. "Did you just say you agree with me?"799Please respect copyright.PENANAeVgMFccpgF
"You heard right. I know I've disagreed with you on that part, but I'm finally going to give in and let all of this slide."799Please respect copyright.PENANAF7Sb0wPnqd
Out of nowhere, a smile 799Please respect copyright.PENANAk4xP6GhIm3
appeared on my face and my heart felt overjoyed. But there was still 799Please respect copyright.PENANAcMTXNgxUGd
that sinking feeling in me. And I knew it was because of the fact that 799Please respect copyright.PENANA6KUL7exOgm
he and I had finally agreed to be friends and nothing else.799Please respect copyright.PENANAJOw1n4ExAO
But maybe it was best for things to be this way. We were never meant to be from a long shot.799Please respect copyright.PENANAqFGM5DN7ga
"Hearing you say that feels like a surprise," I said.799Please respect copyright.PENANAJKfXreEXTl
"I also can't believe 799Please respect copyright.PENANAfMRssumIru
that I'm saying this either. But, if fate wants us to be together, then 799Please respect copyright.PENANAkxKUzUVYkv
it will play its part, wouldn't it?"799Please respect copyright.PENANATySm1xLaz8
I slowly nodded my head. "You're right. Zoey convinced you to all this, didn't she?"799Please respect copyright.PENANAqY7Ak3MgIT
G-Dragon raised an eyebrow. "How do you know that?"799Please respect copyright.PENANAi7RqNumOiB
I smirked. "I could tell when my best friend is trying to help out. That's another reason she came to see you, I bet."799Please respect copyright.PENANAM1UgPSxurD
"Looks you're really good at figuring things out. And I never knew Zoey could give such great advice."799Please respect copyright.PENANAfZNUiWNigc
"She's a ninety percent of crazy and a ten percent of sensible. That shows she rarely gives good advice to anyone."799Please respect copyright.PENANA9aa4xb9ZqW
"Hey! I heard that!" came Zoey's voice coming from the room.799Please respect copyright.PENANAuLEeD5jinF
I looked up at the ceiling and gave a little laugh. "Making fun of Zoey never gets old."799Please respect copyright.PENANAok3CjC45bc
"Ya, but she isn't that bad either," said G-Dragon.799Please respect copyright.PENANAYcV0XDIU3Y
"Awww! Thanks, Ji Yong!" came Zoey again.799Please respect copyright.PENANAtv3MRXSf1K
"Can you please you step away from that door? We're having a conversation here," I called out to her.799Please respect copyright.PENANAGf6LvJPAwy
"Fine! That's why you're no fun!"799Please respect copyright.PENANA022xRHzwQ6
"Yet, I wonder she stuck with me in the first place," I muttered, playfully rolling my eyes.799Please respect copyright.PENANAxDDR8PJIWE
"Oh, Sam," said G-Dragon. "Do you remember I had something for you? I was planning to give it to you two days ago."799Please respect copyright.PENANAvlCyBZDHvK
"Oh, ya, I remember. Do you have it here with you?"799Please respect copyright.PENANAgWGRRHwnop
G-Dragon had his hand 799Please respect copyright.PENANAZAjD16eMnC
behind him and he soon brought out a black fancy looking jewellery box. I799Please respect copyright.PENANAvUM08JP4Ku
could tell there was a necklace in there. But what kind sent me 799Please respect copyright.PENANAChGeR9pT9V
thinking.799Please respect copyright.PENANAKLg6WQiz12
"You got me a necklace?" I asked as I looked up at him.799Please respect copyright.PENANAribet1jjqY
"Yes. I bought it the 799Please respect copyright.PENANAS21PgZsGYx
time I went to Paris with Zoey and the others. Zoey was planning to give799Please respect copyright.PENANAwhLiclk8Yc
it you, but I took it from her and wanted to give it to you later on."799Please respect copyright.PENANAfBcVUcfVZB
"Ha! I knew you got that necklace, GD! How could you!" came Zoey's voice for the room.799Please respect copyright.PENANAZ2IFpIkNoq
"Quiet down!" came Christine's voice. "You're ruining everything!"799Please respect copyright.PENANAHnNqsSVkKg
"Sorry! Carry on! Pretend I never said all that!"799Please respect copyright.PENANA1pyM7m8zd6
"Anyway," said G-Dragon, trying to put all that Zoey had said behind him, "it's yours."799Please respect copyright.PENANANXdAExl6Tf
I took the box from him 799Please respect copyright.PENANAtErLXy4AoB
and when I opened it, what I found inside wasn't what a could call a 799Please respect copyright.PENANAkemnvU3FxV
necklace. It was a pendant. A silver pendant with a music note studded 799Please respect copyright.PENANAHWUkdTBVkv
with real tiny diamonds.799Please respect copyright.PENANAlTgYhJ9TKN
I was stunned at first as I looked at the beauty of the pendant. I took the small music note in my fingers and looked at it.799Please respect copyright.PENANAer4USZcDu2
"Wow, it's so pretty," I799Please respect copyright.PENANALkfIulmf5J
said, looking at it with so much awe and wonder. "I've always wanted to799Please respect copyright.PENANA3TXQy2Krrm
get this kind of a pendant. It's just never crossed my mind to buy one 799Please respect copyright.PENANAyHnRoGNEEz
on my own. I'm always so forgetful of the little things I truly want."799Please respect copyright.PENANAdlX8zgF1zb
"Just so you know, Sam, I picked that for you!" came Zoey.799Please respect copyright.PENANAGo9b93SdVx
"Be honest, Zoey!" G-Dragon called out to her.799Please respect copyright.PENANA1c0JP7SAfi
Zoey sighed loudly. "Fine. Lover boy picked it for you and I agreed because you've always wanted one of those."799Please respect copyright.PENANA5zVz8b8bBx
"Well, I've to say, you really guessed right on one of the things I really wanted," I said as I looked at G-Dragon.799Please respect copyright.PENANAy7nNR8SStc
"I had a strong feeling you would like it," said G-Dragon. "I'm glad I was right."799Please respect copyright.PENANAdFimI8NR3F
"Will you help me put it on?"799Please respect copyright.PENANAEMsmtXfIzz
Christine and Zoey squealed and giggled with glee. I for one, was very annoyed.799Please respect copyright.PENANAr7wSIgg0kM
"Don't mind them," said G-Dragon as he smiled. "Let me."799Please respect copyright.PENANAx8fwSi77iX
He took the pendant and I799Please respect copyright.PENANAgiLng8Rkgp
turned to face the other way, my back facing him. I lifted my hair off 799Please respect copyright.PENANAvFgEcD7WIo
my back and the pendant soon came around and landed on my chest. 799Please respect copyright.PENANA1KvugRbBil
G-Dragon fixed the silver string behind my neck and when he was done, I 799Please respect copyright.PENANAw10Xbc4bL9
put my hair back down.799Please respect copyright.PENANADTkMilLzLW
"Thank you so much," I said as I faced him again. "It's really lovely."799Please respect copyright.PENANAcXRvqCDTNP
"I know, it's gorgeous,"799Please respect copyright.PENANAIZpPotdSdA
he said as he took the music note hanging on the silver neckline and 799Please respect copyright.PENANA4wLpG7cRBo
looked at it. "Music has always been your driving passion, Sam. That's 799Please respect copyright.PENANAPeCGGPht2m
why I got it for you. And with this, I hope you will always remember me 799Please respect copyright.PENANAYiKnzMjnMC
like a musical melody that you can never get tired of listening to and 799Please respect copyright.PENANAUQu5cKGaCG
you will listen to it forever. Like a symphony."799Please respect copyright.PENANAJ9YtZuFwX0
"You will always be my symphony, GD," I said as I held his cheek and then, the unthinkable happened.799Please respect copyright.PENANAu5ckpOMvrW
I brought my lips close 799Please respect copyright.PENANALsQLPcAAR2
to his and I kissed him. He immediately responded and opened his mouth 799Please respect copyright.PENANAk7n6oAszZ6
to take me in. I had to admit, the kiss sent me to a whole new world and799Please respect copyright.PENANACyWbkisjCs
there was this driving passion that I never wanted to ever be 799Please respect copyright.PENANAel6SfZaSLK
extinguished. My heart beat so fast and my insides tingled by the sudden799Please respect copyright.PENANAxd5llFDitn
rush of ecstacy. G-Dragon had pulled me closer to him and I wrapped my 799Please respect copyright.PENANA9tfs4AkYGD
arms around his neck not willingly to let go.799Please respect copyright.PENANAf7oKmkIPEi
We broke away from each other and I felt starry-eyed by all of this. And I blushed like hell. Did I really do that?799Please respect copyright.PENANAh6x8lOqedB
"Wow," said G-Dragon as 799Please respect copyright.PENANAdj1gMzAflt
he looked at me in the eyes and even he himself couldn't believe what 799Please respect copyright.PENANAKy5uDKMH6W
had happened. "Did you really just kiss me?"799Please respect copyright.PENANAhdURNVq6Zk
"I don't know." I was confused and I soon felt so embarrassed. "Did I?"799Please respect copyright.PENANA4sioMtx4YX
"You did. And I loved it."799Please respect copyright.PENANA0SpF5XABir
"Don't say that," I said799Please respect copyright.PENANA8izIAVKR2M
as I moved away from him and pulled my hair back from my face. My face 799Please respect copyright.PENANA1sx6ZstqPQ
was as hot as ever and I felt like splashing water all over myself.799Please respect copyright.PENANAtkwjDPrA9D
"I'm being really honest799Please respect copyright.PENANAZ8HeM4Oaus
right now. That was so magical, Sam." He moved closer and whispered in 799Please respect copyright.PENANA04rodCz5LH
my ear. "And I would do it all over again."799Please respect copyright.PENANAJSeKg3fbUJ
His voice gave me 799Please respect copyright.PENANAYrxh5HT2KX
butterflies in my tummy and I felt that tingling feeling rush through me799Please respect copyright.PENANA6DGXcIjC2l
all over again. I looked at him and by surprise, he wrapped his arms 799Please respect copyright.PENANAUtLjCtAU9q
around me and kissed me. And now, I realised I wanted this more than 799Please respect copyright.PENANAwyuQHomIiX
ever. Him being so close to me. I never wanted to let all of this go.799Please respect copyright.PENANAKxUHFMCMAV
After we broke away from799Please respect copyright.PENANAkQnKTf2cLp
each other, I didn't feel that much embarrassed as I did before. If 799Please respect copyright.PENANAaxjEpkEx1V
anything, I was still blushing but this time, I felt a certain glow from799Please respect copyright.PENANAIRkLtLLKwV
my cheeks.799Please respect copyright.PENANAsoxu9RW2WI
"I never knew you're such a good kisser," said G-Dragon as he bit his lower lip.799Please respect copyright.PENANAyI7q4rP8Ko
I was staring at his 799Please respect copyright.PENANA00SJJZ2pM7
lips and I wanted him to kiss me again so bad. But this time, I smiled. I799Please respect copyright.PENANAJvDwOzKCFG
knew he was enticing me to kiss him again, not this time.799Please respect copyright.PENANA9W5lqGQeA3
"Don't push it," I said as I finally stood up from the couch. "This is going to be the last we will ever do this."799Please respect copyright.PENANA1ibeNwvnfp
G-Dragon also got up and799Please respect copyright.PENANAuJfzVKaxKx
from behind, he wrapped his arms around me. Gosh! He was killing me 799Please respect copyright.PENANAK7teTGfb3i
inside and he knew it. I couldn't stand it when he was so close to me.799Please respect copyright.PENANANDMmUQm0YN
"Do we really have to?" 799Please respect copyright.PENANAygrZ7S0Q8Y
he asked as he whispered in my ear. Again, that tingling feeling. It was799Please respect copyright.PENANANysBU20yKY
driving me insane. "Because I loved it so much."799Please respect copyright.PENANA6XXuBLDvok
"We agreed to be friends and I'm planning to keep it that way."799Please respect copyright.PENANAzmdGKOoNG6
"Okay, fine," he said as he dropped his arms around me and I turned to face him. "The queen has spoken."799Please respect copyright.PENANAp7Zr6O6eJb
"Don't mock me," I warned with a smile.799Please respect copyright.PENANADMW7RuPdNQ
"You know it's going to be hard to forget what just happened."799Please respect copyright.PENANASoIMNsCJNw
"I know. But in one way or another we have to."799Please respect copyright.PENANAOzKGZkvziV
"I'll always love you, Sam."799Please respect copyright.PENANA6bnIJUmFvz
The whole world seems to799Please respect copyright.PENANA2xcMPSlVxG
pause when he said those words. I tried to speak but I couldn't make 799Please respect copyright.PENANAabEg4ubazJ
the effort of opening my mouth. Why did he say that? Right now, I was 799Please respect copyright.PENANASiby6n4I5j
stunned.799Please respect copyright.PENANAKkXG4ASgKB
If his plan was to make 799Please respect copyright.PENANAbc7lXo1zTD
me look like a lifeless statue, it pretty much worked. All he did was 799Please respect copyright.PENANAy4oA3tmGLt
give me that devious smile of his and I just stood there until Christine799Please respect copyright.PENANAJsvM2eJzSB
and Zoey finally showed up.799Please respect copyright.PENANABUBueJMBL8
"Hey, you two are too quiet," said Zoey, then she looked worried when she stared at me. "Oh, no."799Please respect copyright.PENANAWWBf4y0AFE
"Dang, GD. Don't tell me you used the 'L' word on her," said Christine. She winced.799Please respect copyright.PENANAcjxZ0rH5qd
"I did," he said confidently.799Please respect copyright.PENANALL0AvG2s74
"Sam, Sam, if you hear me, just breathe," said Zoey.799Please respect copyright.PENANAmG5qHnK2Yg
"I can hear you loud and clear," I said. "I don't go deaf when I'm stunned, you know?"799Please respect copyright.PENANARJHthzuBt5
