I poured myself a cup of orange juice as I looked at Christine who sat across from me at the table, having a bite of her toast. I looked at her and realised that she seemed more vibrant today. Was it because of the extra sleep we had yesterday?718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9L8vSvhu0r
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDkRAPGyZA
I heard footsteps coming into the lounge and I turned to see Zoey approaching the table.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkU474v2oA
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw9szulHe1B
"Morning, girls," she said as she drew out a chair next to mine and sat down with a bright smile on her face.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuziUUdNRYH
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7IJz85SGN
"Morning," Christine and I answered at the same time.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMkTQSmtZx
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlCX3nKkmaX
"You ladies look very bright this morning," she said as she took a plate and placed it in front of her.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw47DSpSFsF
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvmsBKCPt54
"So do you," said Christine as she took another bite out of her french toast.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnES8AqKUF
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡglWdUznd82
"I guess the sleep we had really worked wonders," I said.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlNvDmTCAqs
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9TrQj6IdZ2
"Really?" Zoey asked as she looked at me and held her cheeks with her fingers as though she was massaging them. "Do I look like extra extra pretty?"718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNTheWkfnu
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpYTuj7PvTW
I smiled at her. "You've always looked pretty, Zoey."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcRVEOeK1vF
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPenzg9o8uf
"Morning, people," said Mike as both him and Daniel appeared and came straight for the table.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4gXSn9OKKM
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBBaQF9vbp
"Morning," we answered him. I gave Daniel, a bright smile. He smiled back.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqYmIdOtP4I
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAE0mnMhFt5
"What's with Zoey feeling like she's all pretty?" Mike asked as he took a seat right next to Christine and Daniel sat right next to Zoey.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMpqwzZHJmB
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLOOmuitQeB
"Can't you see that I'm glowing?" Zoey asked as she beamed at Mike. "Sam says the extra sleep we had must have helped."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZO1iRqGyG
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3PMvMFM2Q3
"Enough sleep is good for the body," said Daniel as he took the jug of orange juice.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZnAQVB0xhK
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTuo846SiIs
"Are we going to meet with the others today and finish up on the song?" Mike asked as he looked at me.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2rhtRgLiFr
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk60aIsw9H1
"I haven't communicated with either of the two groups yet," I said.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnz5WlpDTd
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Ngf3ei6Us
"Mmm..., funny," said Zoey as she lifted her toast and looked at it like she was observing it. "I haven't been on my phone since last night."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQfnavMN1G
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkh0wd2ksyJ
"Really, that's all you can think about?" Christine asked.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwkR9OSfR2N
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8aatKUd2e
"Well..., I guess we were all tired and needed a break. Besides, last night was quite fun."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE6aOtl0nKt
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAtb6PKgqA8
"Tell me about it," said Daniel as he held a slice of toast and took a bite.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoS8kMHeLoc
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26rAPx7mTP
After we went to catch up on sleep yesterday afternoon, we woke up around 7PM and we all met in the lounge where we ended up playing board games with Lee. Before supper, Collins arrived and joined in on the fun and we told him about our progress on the new song. After supper, we all sat down to watch the Korean drama series, "Boys Over Flowers." We went to bed an hour early before our usual bedtime.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhzWTDTQEx0
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgFyeK9JKYM
"We should have more sleeping hours, don't you think?" Mike asked.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQx347BlLTQ
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyO0liLnLdk
"With what we are working on right now, I doubt it," I said. "Maybe after we finally head back home."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARFnf27PO8
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6iBG3SGHx
"This album is going to kill us," said Zoey as she leaned her head back and looked up at the ceiling in frustration.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHon8Z8clE
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIlZnUzo8E1
"You have to check up on these guys and ask if we're going to meet," said Christine as she looked at me.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEmcLXpguoH
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡABW5xnoFnR
"After breakfast," I said. I took a sip of my juice.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6f4Jfl9F5Y
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDnR6xExmz1
As we continued to have our breakfast and talked about the snakes and ladders game we had yesterday, Lee and Collins came into the lounge. Lee was taking down something on her tablet while Collins talked to her, almost like he was giving her instructions. I couldn't hear what he was saying because he talked in a low tone and Zoey at the same time was the one talking at the table.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMGQT3qs4xm
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRwuHjeE9Bk
"All I am saying is," she said, "if Daniel wasn't so lucky, I would have won that game."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjsTWvg8qda
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTtY4ubkQR
"Too bad you got eaten by the snake towards the end," said Daniel as he smiled at Zoey.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVnScbgsA6y
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa5a83Dq6Id
"Sometimes I think you cheat."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1NKKncEayD
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qr520NJfD
"Cheating in snakes and ladders is almost impossible," said Christine as I saw her shrug her shoulders. "That's if you have the super power to row the dice to the number that's most suitable."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWqBjwyCqE
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNiELVmm6a
"Morning," said Collins as he and Lee came towards us. "I see Zoey still hasn't gotten over that snakes and ladders game."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRbmO87LuAZ
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE4minfUMMf
Zoey looked down at her empty plate, not daring to look up at Collins. "Not really," she said.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8iLE9seBk
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ91Re3nuXmv
"Will all of BTW be meeting today to continue working on the song?" Collins asked as he looked at me.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNqTc4tlro
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6k0LF8iYTT
"I have to communicate with them and see if it's possible," I answered.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsLLHicQvy9
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcjhypR9SWz
"Well, I sure hope so. I told Yang Hyun-suk that you already started. He wants to hear it tomorrow, so I really hope you do make progress."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6N2m5l03x
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfD4DP8uQSk
"I better go give them a call, then."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsqxJTjSo4K
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1uVMOiaoNj
I drew my chair back and left the table. I later found myself back in the room I shared with Zoey. I went straight for my phone that was beside the bed lamp. It felt like it had stayed there for a very long time because I barely touched it last night.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1YthavCSyl
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4yUrZ7OQke
I checked my lock screen and found no messages whatsoever. Maybe its because I hadn't turned the wifi on on my phone. After I unlocked it and switched on the wifi, notifications came flooding in almost at the same time most of them from social networks like Instagram and Twitter. I ignored them all as I went on my WhatsApp to check if there were any messages on the BTW chat group. But nothing.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeSRyWUYybv
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kzT80MIak
"Strange," I muttered to myself as I sat on my bed. I decided to leave a message, but that wasn't going to be enough.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJJm6xHIHv
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtCHO0W9tju
I decided to make a call to one of the BlackPink members. Jennie was the first member on my contact list so I called her.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX2JTjavIvh
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcYQg6BWOng
I put my phone to my ear. Her phone rang but she wasn't picking up. I waited until the voicemail came up and I cut the call right away. Maybe she was still asleep or she wasn't so close to the phone. I called again and still her phone went straight to voicemail.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH2n4QeVesw
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nLBpwjJ04
I called Jisoo next, and just like Jennie's phone, it went straight to voicemail. Something didn't feel right. Why were they both not answering their phones?718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRnV9GIn1uA
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCulBVfITCA
I went on ahead to call Seunghoon and this time, I prayed that his phone wasn't going to act like the others. Upon the third ring, he answered.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡppfKLoBdBl
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgglQdg6Wxj
"Hello?" Seunghoon answered. He sounded sleepy.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1YcCUMfpp
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCcmyb3aXA
"Seunghoon? Hey, are you still asleep?" I asked.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8OQBpExFyf
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVmyrr0ehdv
"Sam?" he sounded surprised and more awake. "Oh, I didn't notice it was you."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAksppiAIFU
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjym5pB7Xmb
"Are you guys coming to meet us here at the hotel? We have a song to work on, remember?"718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvMCAd5OPv
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ57cw4KjQWn
"Oh, oh, ya, we do..., ummm, eish.....," I heard him mutter something in Korean. "You said we can meet either today or tomorrow, right?"718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1NBeYWMqbf
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwz63KFfCJy
"Umm...," I raised an eyebrow. Something was definitely not right at the moment. "Yes, I did. That's why I called to see if you guys are up it."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xGnXHIKqi
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TbeJn6o4L
"Oh, umm, let me ask if these guys are up for it." I heard movement, like someone was pushing away the sheets to try and get out of bed. "I'll call you right back."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtaozSFZm8D
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6A39UPzRih
"Ya, sure."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbY51Wx8Gl
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0rQgQFWE6j
Seunghoon cut the call and I couldn't help but wonder. Maybe the others weren't up for meeting today. It was for the best to have it cancelled.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx1x0N7yXnk
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1lHUOx7H8
The door to the room flew open and Zoey came in.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡglXVSgZCIi
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhIxtu5BWvf
"Anything?" Zoey asked.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKwGMWmynOY
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIzB75Ssv6m
"Couldn't reach Jennie or Jisoo," I answered. "But I did reach Seunghoon and he will get back to me as soon as he talks to the others."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8o1iPMnaj
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp7C2zjrMmH
"Okay, well, we can wait."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHBM3KIGJJm
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTrw5uCDKip
"Maybe we should cancel and meet tomorrow. Seunghoon was still asleep when I called."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQngvWTVDL
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzpJ5DP8Qt3
"We could, but Yang Hyun-suk wants to hear the song tomorrow."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb5LvcGI1T2
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPreoALgGKV
"We can tell Collins to tell him that he will have to wait a little longer."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEZaUDrlA9k
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOm5gwckZe8
"Geez, this is Yang Hyun-suk we're talking about. He wouldn't like taking orders from a missy like you."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFATNbYinqS
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIBSofyl6V2
I shrugged my shoulders. "It's just a suggestion, not an order."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0mzn7TU4V
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJ53dWfKsm
"Ooh, you know what I mean," she said irritatingly.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ52c4fIW9r
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUqnWx520Se
"We can't work on the song without them."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXk2Ebqea0y
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZiIgFcG2y
"True, but you started to work on the song way before we all met yesterday. You're a good songwriter after all."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2g5y9ZrrkT
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHEuTS6sYi
"I hope we won't have to write the songs of the entire album ourselves. We will need to bring out some songwriters. We don't really have much time."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwumgZYsMR
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvyCoDTUuEz
"Huh, funny. Collins was talking about it with Lee just now. You two seem to think alike."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ohWIxjO5R
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPs82I5div
"Yay, we will be working on one song," I said with less enthusiasm.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLQ9M57g7a
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ZF7bTENuu
"Then get your guitar and notebook."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlL0mNMEknY
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8rmNkODIK0
"May you help me with my guitar?" I asked. "It's in the closet."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWtPs6G1rF
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGY5JGSbdYK
"Really? Why do I get to carry the heavy stuff for you?"718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5Vnp9t6ov
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyEmqy6KEww
"I never let you carry any of my heavy stuff. And besides, the guitar isn't so heavy."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQnyRXHMeY
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4P2STCjMNT
"Whatever," Zoey rolled her eyes at me as she went to the closet to get it. I stretched out over my bed to get my notebook in one of the drawers on the other side of the bed.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPnzZWF69j
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9GtlQOoQUv
Zoey and I soon left the room, Zoey with my guitar and me, with my phone and notebook. I expected Seunghoon to have called back by now but he hadn't. Strange.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCeppCogGcI
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbVtozYR7Z
"Aah, it's good to see that you are much more serious than I thought about the song," said Collins as we entered the lounge.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDK4MPCdrW
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ZEM2W0F9M
"Of course we are," said Zoey as she smiled at Collins seated in the lounge. My brothers and Christine weren't by the dining table.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZHDDAGmWX
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jup2NDJD6
"And what about the others?" Lee asked. She was standing right in front of us with the tablet still in her hands. "Are they going to make it?"718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtjI2z9zoSz
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWU5bvuMscg
"Am yet to receive a reply," I answered.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjmTfl2We0
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6SXohPAZK
"I hope all goes to plan," said Collins as he stood up. "Yang Hyun-suk is really looking forward to hearing the song."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLx4rNFwV7u
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxNjLZ4R4mJ
I gulped. Something told me it was best if the managers heard the song another day.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXWIttxGppt
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTm7KgVCcsd
"I actually think we need a little more time," I said to Collins.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvikkpKIuw
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjpO5rIWTVI
"Really?" he raised his eyebrow at me.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOj7LM4dINP
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9iQtCKAO7W
I felt Zoey look at me. She knew what I was doing. I had no other choice but to stall.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52QpZ7SDPf
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlY9OhFbNwv
"Yes, really," I answered.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6XT4Q2yyQ
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMGIChJY7J
"Whatever reason you have, fine. But you will have to finish the song because tomorrow we will meet other songwriters and composers for the album. But we will still need that song from you."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfiyiG9Pcqv
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8MailRpfQ
I nodded my head. "It will be a great song, trust me."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMM9cYNLcVw
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmiSBCFKOfJ
Collins smiled at Zoey and I, then left the lounge heading for the elevator. It looked like he was going out as always.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGBYp4O7bZu
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv9DAUKV9Zt
"Well, that went well," said Zoey after we were sure that Collins had gone.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXj5I9nIeNq
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqVSgtPuJHN
"What went well?" Lee asked.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuqtGcqQXvN
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYOPGuPnDZs
"Nothing, nothing," said Zoey as she went ahead to put the guitar on the nearest couch and smiled at Lee.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfhZpsXX441
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrObkBIFKDV
I knew Lee was going to stare at me to get an answer, so, I avoided her gaze by looking at my phone. Still nothing from Seunghoon. I debated on whether to give him another call.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZAFfKdFNyf
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7YuLh5M1H
I heard one of the doors open and shut in the hall followed by Christine's voice singing to a song by Maroon 5: "She will be loved" until she entered the lounge.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxgCKk5T0m
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0GbwfW3UI
"Any news from the others yet?" she asked as she stood beside me.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2vz4uJldu4
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvD6N2rB8d
I shook my head. "I can't reach BlackPink and Seunghoon said he would inform me soon if he and the rest are going to make it."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx1LpOsrhg4
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV5KagrIGnn
"Bummer," she said as she went over to sit on the couch. Zoey soon joined her.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgHGPL3UGJu
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFud20T94cF
"Now I see why you don't want the managers hearing the song tomorrow," said Lee. "You're not sure if these guys are going to show."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuVpax3E75w
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1URuec9ga
"I thought we agreed that we were all going to rest and then meet up," said Christine.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHGz3UUXgT
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvdn7osoGYN
"The sad part was I suggested we meet either today or tomorrow," I said.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH6mKEP5pNO
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0VwYcd7RH
"I think I was the one who suggested that," said Lee as she winced.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMAudLSwl5S
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8cOhj6L8q
"Judging by Sam's phone that should have rang minutes ago, we're likely to meet tomorrow," said Zoey.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXNs4zyzRC
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcgUi83rDz
She was right. I looked at my phone and I felt like I should have just left it behind in my room. Seunghoon might call to tell me that they weren't going to make it. Jisoo or Jennie would find my missed calls and call me back to say the same thing.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjriAHFXZB
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwsq0eBjjxk
"Ya, you're right," I said as I slumped my shoulders and lowered my phone. I sighed.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZtlhrPxuqj
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTSyqUAThiQ
"If these guys are taking a day off, don't you think we should as well?" Zoey asked.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1pUHEPLg0M
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVcHGTHVb3H
"No!" Christine, Lee and I said at the same time.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpBrHuIJ44
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPdkCnxAmyK
Zoey's face was one filled with disappointment. "I really wanted to go shopping."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQD1byvll3
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcP5rZuEZym
"If they won't come, we will work on the song ourselves," I said. "I'll just text them-"718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVH9rbNjNal
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZGtul8fSL
The phone beeps in my hand. I looked at it and I found a message from Seunghoon. I read the message saying that they won't be able to make it. I texted back and told him we would meet tomorrow.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9psCnpMAt
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DPcZtSyVs
After pressing the send button, Lee asked, "was that Seunghoon?"718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGWmGRv8sHp
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9c0Bhskil7
"Yep, and he said they aren't going to make it."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42gYdRj1Ue
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLtnuS5ZwOt
"Well, you saw this coming," said Zoey.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqoUBfK9aeM
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7gAbYvS29
"And you did well to stall the managers," said Lee. "That will give you some breathing space."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDaMNq5ZTpU
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCLYvwYPeC
"We better start working on the song," I said as I went over to the couch where my guitar lay and lifted it to create space to sit. "Where are Mike and Daniel?"718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9XiZwBSOE9
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZyGljt2Iw
"I can go call them, they are in their room," said Lee.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZl0fqz7rU
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZbFolrPB01
She didn't even have to leave the lounge as Mike and Daniel soon appeared.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2EsyqFMmQ4
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwaLoCgXXGy
"We're working on the song already?" Daniel asked. "Aren't we waiting for the others?"718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwgAKncV6re
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlwZgVHBS8
"They won't make it today," said Zoey as I sat down.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8dCwfLvsiw
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wlYBWVBnD
"Mmm..., how come?" Mike asked, sounding puzzled.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoGTGssdg0P
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfyt0uc3Oe2
"They wouldn't say, just that they can't make it, at least that's what Seunghoon told me on behalf of WINNER," I said. "I'm yet to hear from BlackPink."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPCx7Am2aM
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTyC2YAEoa
"Bummer," said Daniel as he came to sit right beside me.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGoocR9lNC
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv6VlOaBuus
"Not to worry, we can still make progress without them. Shall we begin?"718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59x1i8B96m
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWyvRcWtA4
Mike sat opposite Daniel and I. We first did a recap of the song and continued working on the first verse since that was where we left off. Without the others it was kind of difficult since Mino and Seungyoon came up with great lyrics for the first verse. We had to go with the flow though and it didn't seem so bad.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4oj22nJhF

We were still on the first verse, checking out sentences and debating whether one word sounded better than the other when my phone rang. It laid on the armrest of the couch. I checked who was calling and rolled my eyes.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSRnLOE3nw
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNUTDw25W4w
"Who's calling, Sam?" Daniel asked.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzfkFgWVMf1
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwIhFosvveo
"I'll tell you," said Zoey, "it's G-Dragon. If it's not, then it's probably someone who's just as annoying as he is."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7s0HuQ9CvY
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8mBVfufA9
"It's him, alright," I said as I took the phone and picked up the call. "Hey, GD."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJEe5PJ8Kzw
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ58vCrx0srF
"Hi, I'm in the elevator right now coming to your floor. I'll be there in like 30 seconds."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgigON9BnHq
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52dy26qS4i
"Wait, you're....," the line went dead. I stared at the phone.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDimnDdShb0
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2kDN40WwH2
"What is it?" Christine asked.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjYqXYNKR7
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZHkubrQn6
We heard the sound of the elevator doors on our floor announcing the arrival of our visitor.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZNNStQ35S
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGB3fhAXGmR
"He's here," I said.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG3J0FJK8lf
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq8hsxn7e2m
Lee who sat at the dining table, working, asked, "how come we were never informed at the reception of his arrival?"718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCfNz6uZ4NN
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbfrzgvk4K0
"It's because I told them not to," came G-Dragon as he appeared in the lounge.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzNJJFGISLc
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8UqDcJcqpn
We turned to look at him. Somehow, I wasn't surprised that he was here.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPcVVKgkjcj
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkmi0OfOKL4
"Hello, everyone," he greeted as he came to where the five of us, sat.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVpAbrfvzQk
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VeoMmXFsE
Four of us, including Lee, replied to his greeting except Zoey who said, "how come you're here?"718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNHlYK3uIW
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDFMkiYXQDZ
"What's wrong with me being here?" he asked as he shrugged his shoulders.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjsW0azQve1
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXVep1jXHfN
"For someone who went partying last night, you seem pretty sober."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx9nFPi2VE6
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlV6gIUKaq
"Oh.., how did the party go anyway?" Christine asked.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZY0Wrz3Rk
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrETP0ut5n9
"It was great," he said with a happy grin.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiVhlZl2I50
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5o6NdIMhHA
"Zoey has a point, though," said Mike. "For someone who had a great time at the party, you seem pretty sober and...," he snapped his fingers as he tried to think of a word.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8jLSGPKYp
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJrHWq1DSh
"Normal?" Daniel suggested. Though he was only joking.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKLZD2wWmaf
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡytutbtUvy4
"Wait, you think I'm not normal?" G-Dragon asked. He almost looked offended.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMERMdoswkL
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAUlNbIht4
"Nah, that's not the word, Daniel," said Mike. "It doesn't matter anyway."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpe4lZTsjRt
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIlFiPsBwEM
I looked over at Mike and he had a small smirk on his face that was almost unnoticeable to everyone else. I found Daniel also staring at his brother and then he looked at me. The two of us knew he meant what Daniel said.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ577K19ZMcP
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFMgQArffF
"We had a blast yesterday," said G-Dragon as he went over to join Mike on the couch. "I thought you checked the photos on Instagram."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6DFn1ShSf2
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQm7ACCWUAd
"Did you just say 'we?'" I asked as I raised my eyebrow at him.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrIXbfQLrC
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHD152R4WeD
"What?" he asked as if he hadn't heard my question. I felt like he did.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdzLKGXUCBV
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCvKIYeqlHb
"You said 'we.' Who else were you with?"718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJEnE5ALpfd
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4Phybq2TG
"Oh.., just friends, very close..., very good friends," he answered as he nodded his head.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxAyzPhcVIP
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzgLON4fAby
"Okay," I said as I slowly nodded back. "I'm glad you had fun."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMpaZtDrhEw
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSaD2QmhICk
"You guys should have come. It was amazing."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeapP7IQTvh
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaq7vdglX4e
"Too late for that now, isn't it?" Christine asked.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGX0myyfas9
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9hmlFUlog5
"Yep, too late. But you could still see the pics of how much fun we had."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH05sN4dKO1
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCu83zwvnab
"I bet there was plenty of booze too," said Zoey.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjKLNmdDuL
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbABDgIFXVi
"Plenty," said G-Dragon with a smile.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hUSJpLDem
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdokjK4yZ4K
I couldn't help but feel something strange with what G-Dragon said a few sentences ago. Maybe I was just imagining things. Any who....718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLqRhmRQYt
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpkv7z9KZMe
"We can check the pics later," I said. "We have a song to write."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdJLQgeRbU
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPEwkNBCoC0
"The others aren't here yet?" G-Dragon asked. "How can you work on the song without them?"718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGzWlg5o6hY
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xmnD6BXp4
"Seunghoon called to tell me they weren't going to make it. I haven't heard anything from BlackPink but I doubt they will come, so I called off the meeting and we are working on it instead."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnpB69WrswJ
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLijOlfvA1J
"Oh. I think that's fair considering that they must be tired from the party."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFkpiLTzyOg
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd3JboayfWp
I looked at G-Dragon, and so did the rest of the Toxins.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZUsugXVrcC
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwqKJMHDweT
"They were with you at the party?" Daniel asked.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsuFN20M7Op
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwOQBCgEYH
"Huh....?" G-Dragon now looked like the confused one. "I thought you knew."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKAUn8fDuk5
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIzrJpErKCK
"How would we know when we were resting yesterday and we were completely off social media?" Christine asked.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡENd8YbZzK0
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxBIoI6oXE3
G-Dragon shrugged his shoulders. He left our floor early yesterday, so he had no idea that we all agreed to rest and continue working on the song later. Can't blame him for that.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpqV9KFYaX
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkC6fd4Fhde
"You dragged them to the party, didn't you?" Zoey asked as she pointed a finger at him. "You're such a manipulator!"718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhyDinL81kQ
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHe9jMoZZL
"I didn't convince them, I swear," he said as he raised his hands in surrender. But then he looked at me and lowered them. "Okay..., maybe a little."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmYKrxwT6e
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg4HFRXYQBE
"I knew it!" Zoey said with a look on her face.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqXw5DeRMzB
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8PO87sUvtT
"But ninety percent of the whole convincing thing was on the other guy."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcdASc7zrYQ
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjGd06bf2r
"The other guy?" Mike asked as he raised his eyebrows.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtG4rOi3WqW
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4TI5c5gD7l
"Who's the other guy?" Christine asked.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ85fn1OyIiX
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUX2iRG0nlI
I knew there was something fishy about G-Dragon's earlier statements. He didn't just go and party with "just" close friends.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8I9i9aHyB
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWChLC85N8
"Tell us," Zoey demanded when G-Dragon didn't speak.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSYURSrtKm0
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9G5ccIshp
We looked at him as he also stared back at each one of us. The look in his eyes made me realise that he didn't want to talk for fear of what might happen next.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0CEQG06Ws
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW3vRfrYYIz
"Looks like you lost your tongue, GD," said Daniel. "Please tell us who you were with. I don't think it's that much of a big deal."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1UJceKZjp
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTqxCi60xid
G-Dragon squeezed his eyes shut in fright. And just like that, we knew it was a big deal.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡggD7Rx7VBI
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNi0viwEPX
"Goodness, just tell us, GD," I said. "We have a song to work on and you're just wasting our time."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpyvPUwaZH
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9qH76kl5I
"It was a mistake coming here," said G-Dragon as he nervously stood up from the couch. "I better get going. Sorry for disturbing you."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkwpD3MHbug
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEauS5p9pYB
All five of us stood up and surrounded him. It was five against one and he knew he couldn't stand a chance. We came closer, making it tight for him to leave.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWCSyBNZ47
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1b8bUqVHZr
"GD, sit down, please," I instructed him and he did.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ12nOyRjqz9
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG22lajbJO5
"Now," said Zoey as she cracked her knuckles. "You're going to answer our questions. You don't want to receive these babies," she gestured to her fists, "on your face."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWsjQrnG9K4
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2BTaJMuq20
"Okay, okay," G-Dragon surrendered. "I'll tell you."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdxvqEyCYrP
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS6pRYNujaC
"First question," said Christine with her arms folded. "Who were you with downstairs when you left our floor yesterday?"718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPMnje7KMGH
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5yqXk05T9
G-Dragon gulped as he looked at us. "You won't like the answer I am about to give you. You will kill me before I even leave this place."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEiy0IzZQGo
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqCF9h1Wrm
"We will make sure to bury you in a lovely place, promise," said Mike. "Now, spill."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9pQO9go41
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI8s54PmDwZ
G-Dragon sat upright and cleared his throat. "When I came out of the elevator, I saw..., I saw this guy. He recognised me immediately and said he was a big fan..., and so....., we talked for a while. We got along well...., and then that's when the others came..."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3FypSJ2diU
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8XKblCBgRj
"GD, we don't want to hear how you all met," I said, "we want a name. Who is the guy?"718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlbDEYpJHZ
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ09c3lhPhLY
"It's..., it's..., Johnny," said G-Dragon. He immediately looked down at the floor.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGrUIHdf7v
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKOEbnqIJW
"Johnny Jerkins!" the five of us said at the same time.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsAabgqqIaA
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUKYurfUIA
"Yes," G-Dragon as he slowly nodded his head, still facing downwards.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVgHDADoDp
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7T3wSgN941
Zoey fell onto the couch next to G-Dragon like she was about to pass out, her hand on her forehead.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjeAHcAxeJf
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEh5AjlIWkg
"I can't believe it" she said.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqt8NeN7xVz
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0TyDAcam5I
"That explains everything," I said, as I looked at a certain part of the wall above the couch, my mind far off.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXp1GYgFXHz
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRtKUmbUWJg
"No wonder they couldn't make it," said Daniel.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7X6BUDDG1V
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUHBITUmjp3
"They didn't just go to the party, they were hanging out with Johnny," said Mike.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqzFUNpKPG
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ524ExgnvHj
"Ya...., you won't like what I am about to show you," said Lee behind us.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEBR0r983a7
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQRrR8GA8W
We all turned to look at Lee as she approached with a tablet in her hands. She went to sit on the couch I had been sitting on with Daniel. I went to sit next to her, Christine on her other side. Mike and Daniel went over to stand at the back of the couch so as to see more clearly on the tablet.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgKI2SgWCr7
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPYZYnGtWh
She was on Instagram and she had gone on one of G-Dragon's fan pages. One of the first photos we saw of last night was a picture of him and Johnny staring at the camera and smiling. They had hands over each other's shoulders like they were best buddies.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMENAolU4Oj
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnp3SxdsD3l
It was definitely Johnny Jerkins alright. His white blonde hair cropped to the sides and a strand of it falling above his right blue eye. He was almost G-Dragon's height and he had on a white shirt and brown khaki shorts. I noticed their surrounding and I couldn't help but ask:718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo27I1HQv7h
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSt4kMDDIOf
"You guys had a party on a boat?" I looked at G-Dragon.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2vLgTpns4W
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhgnkTkwpJg
"What! A cruise party!" Zoey yelled as she sat up quickly. She looked like she had woken from her slumber as she went to stand alongside my two brothers.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo9WzQygDXe
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkU6P2Y4TB
Lee continued to scroll down the page and more pictures came up. This time, there were some of BlackPink and WINNER having a good time with Johnny and G-Dragon. There were other pictures with fans who wanted to take pics with the K-Pop superstars.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEBATQPQfp6
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2sNmk9uG80
"You guys had such a good time," said Zoey. "I wish I came."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2OFWINSQE
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8K5O5d2Y3v
"You see, you guys should have tagged along," said G-Dragon.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKvRBZfLfcY
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUtQkIex3Z9
"And hang out with Johnny? Heck no!" Zoey detested.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZ89UV8bNc
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVdY7q6ei3
"He seems pretty cool."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7g9585Djt
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1kdQPzgDDd
"That's because you only just met him," said Daniel.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnz1yhJOOcD
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNZNMlDr1v
"You won't be hanging out with him more often, will you?" Christine asked.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEGcduhiAHR
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwasOpt0qwf
"Nah," G-Dragon denied. "I guess all that was just a one time thing."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6DXeQvtTo
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDcc2JRA2Az
"That's what they all say," said Zoey. I imagined her rolling her eyes when she said that.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrGDBvOK2zV
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxOOQxP7OG
"And let's not forget, he's in this hotel," I said. "Avoiding him will be tricky."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6imt7vbmfe
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiNWhSsCaAx
"Don't you think maybe you guys are taking this thing a little too far?" G-Dragon asked.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAckewXqu4L
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJ87BlVF6c
"What thing?" Christine asked. Her eyes were still fixed on the tablet as Lee continued to scroll.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPTwPUIV5A
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3pZSViYfXT
"This 'Johnny' thing?"718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7lCNGtusD
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDeSeMTYFV1
I looked up from the tablet at G-Dragon and I knew I wasn't the only one.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMvWNyMewzu
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGG0XDuvXJY
"Why would we?" I asked.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5TaON0TpED
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnP4UbkyVNn
"You talk about him as if he's your worst enemy."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwCe2M83Exg
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaIgNTqA8GD
"Look, we don't hate people, well, maybe some," said Mike. "It's just that some people aren't worth hanging out with."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnXW3x4wRux
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNmCGYNyEM
"Because of his actions back at school? Please, that was a long time ago."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9EfjJwNr2
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOL8vzBVYfX
"You're right," said Zoey. "It was a long time ago, but we would rather keep our distance. Some people are just toxic, you know?"718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkNXLF3Pcgc
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ02pfKXKliC
"How ironic," said G-Dragon as he stood up from the couch.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQw91UrXPN
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZFejsLbhuM
"Leaving already?" Lee asked.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8W8O8BRHe
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbD035dZCa
"Ya, I really should. Just came to check up on the progress with the song."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKybJIpDxib
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0TKnyLdssI
G-Dragon didn't seem like himself. I looked at him and this time I didn't give him a criticising look like I always do. I could tell he was upset if not sad.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZpX3vg8o0F
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaw410aB0vg
"I'll escort you to the elevator," I said as I stood up from the couch.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcoIadqOMRp
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJ3z7Ow2d4
"Ok," he said and he turned to address the others, "I'll see you guys later."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD3EwGJxBLy
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbcNteZG3G
"Bye, GD," the rest replied at the same time. Their tone sounded low almost as if they didn't want to upset him any further.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZYXiDUPEV
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5VOeNDARbz
G-Dragon made his way out of the lounge and I was right behind him.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXLP4owZtFj
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXG42rmWTK
"Well, you seem upset," I said to him when we were in the hall.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPcp3krbL7
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTdT6O4WkdN
"No, I'm not," he said as he shrugged his shoulders.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFr5XUBNYoN
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5LpKkA2yoi
I held his shoulder and he stopped walking, his back still facing me.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmLs3w2dZZ
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUbRjDQJY55
"I know when you're upset," I said as I dropped my hand. "I think the others know too."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhJHLzB6hs
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmzIWgfor99
He turned around to look at me. "I don't get you guys at all," he said.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaROX17yr71
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTGl5tivEJ
"What do you mean?" I folded my arms.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5aBEn6bPgS
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8gmNGrcWY
"I mean, you guys are the nicest and coolest people I have ever met and I never thought you would be so spiteful about someone. You weren't all like this when you were dealing with Jehan...., well, maybe Zoey, but even she wasn't so extreme."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRbrpaJ8MpU
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8zwMVhNWj2
"We aren't perfect, you know? We have our emotions too, whether good or bad."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MO7svsXKZ
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ4nGYJv9jU
"But why hate on Johnny so much?"718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpS8kzOQFY
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrhhABAAUXE
I shook my head. "We don't hate him. We do hate what he did to us in the past, but we don't actually hate him."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpiQG0F4WRG
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyVul7AvgDS
"Really?"718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4sElxQw5Pk
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9nvXuQyK5
"If we really did, we would have called him worse names than 'jerk' now, wouldn't we?"718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2WqSlOtMLc
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ20l7uTEF1C
G-Dragon bit his lip and he didn't have to admit I was right. "Then why can't you come to peace with him?" he asked. "You don't even want to cross paths with him, like ever."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67yMFqGNEB
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5C2wktyEzu
I sighed as I dropped my arms. "Some people aren't worth mingling around with, Jiyong."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujsGXZuKmD
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWLdjUQopT7
"Is there something you aren't telling me?" He raised his eyebrow at me and took a step closer.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqiSZ9gpRM
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkBOK6c6RL4
I shrugged my shoulders. "Kind of," I answered. "You're yet to know everything in due time."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTCNbmsS0Lg
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXzK69Osn4
G-Dragon slowly nodded his head. I could tell that he understood and is willing to wait. But for how long is the million dollar question.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyONu33Q6ug
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoIV9XmQI5u
"Okay, I'll see you around, then," said G-Dragon as he managed to smile.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPMWfCZIULf
718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxHHYBb3Mog

"Aren't you guys going to continue working on the song?" Lee asked at the dining area. We had been quiet for what felt like forever.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiu1LSJeLV2

The five of us all looked at each other. It was surprising we wanted something sweet to boost our spirits. We needed some fresh air too. We all turned to look at Lee who sighed. She needed a doughnut too.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGIlxZpWDgZ
