"Okay, so here are the lyrics for the song," I said after writing them down.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3AUGBi6ch9
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGitwkFDOfk
Everyone's attention automatically turned to me. They all fell silent. I read out the lyrics first then sang them out.
"So, what do you think?" I asked, addressing the question towards BAP.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyg2EY6NDOD
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMZkfzJYr2
"Just admit it," said Zoey, "the song is awesome."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9fsGTLzbrI
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0XDrZw8iPQ
"Zoey." Christine gave her a look that told her to keep quiet. "Let the others take it in first."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrevsfFVx72
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfHtV6QGuK
"Zoey's right," said Daehyun. "The lyrics are great."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCoKv7R9fSL
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Wn5UXMYgH
"I now get what Daniel said," said Zelo, "the song is meant to be sad, but it's fun to sing. You can hear it with the way Sam sang it out."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK7EbU0GrRy
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNkKoLcUctK
"You should listen to the tune," said Mike. "You'll love it."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDv8pYoq2V
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0oB7C7H2dG
"I bet that's why you went searching for the guitar," said Jongup as he looked at me.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSVaUNCyFG
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjzCohbc8LQ
"Play the guitar, Sam," Himchan insisted. "We're all dying to hear it. I bet Yong-guk can't wait any longer."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCOnVDkbqU
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7kB8rpxdg
"Huh?" Yong-guk looked at Himchan beside him, looking confused. "No, I'm not."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwaRFGTh0YI
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEhNb87ohWK
"Of course you are," said Yong-nam as he gave his brother a raised eyebrow. "Don't forget, I'm your twin."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDliGtwZrJo
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJSzgVSdz9
"Okay," I said as I took the guitar that had been laying on the table the whole time. "Let me play it, then."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ebdXWUmyt
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjzFYDx6Th4
I positioned the guitar properly before me with my crossed legs supporting it. Before I started to strum the strings, I took in a deep breath. I played out the tune first. Afterwards, I started to sing out the chorus. It wasn't long so it ended sooner than expected.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTH1jPnTmky
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqx47MdfsD4
"Wow," said Young-jae, looking at me like he's just seen something's dazzled him. "The song's going to sound awesome."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHG47ETyTIG
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6A6xLqlBs6
"Thanks," I said. "Oh, before I forget," I reached out for the pencil on the table and started to write something down. "We also worked on the first verse, but we couldn't finish it up yesterday. We were having a little trouble with the words so we want to see what you guys think."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqOPHsHgVP1
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHhwJ2qW4Sq
"Alright," said Yong-guk, looking to see what I was writing on the paper. "Whatever it is, I bet we can handle it."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81hLzKt7jG
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA12pqNqfr0
"Can't wait to see you try," said Christine. "But then again, if it's you two l'm not worried."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHWlwoGJBK
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDO9c4dXd5
"There you go again, Christine," I said after writing down the lyrics. "Okay, here we are." I laid down the pencil aside on the table.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn8ECrmL9y8
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19PNyjJiyW
I felt Jongup lean closer so as to see what I had written. I leaned to the side a little, but his blond hair almost covered my face. I couldn't help but take a sniff. His hair smelt really nice. Well, this seems unusual. I tried to lean away further so as not to smell him.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXtwQ2DqPn7
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTVo0K05rG
"Come on, Jongup," Zelo complained. "You're distracting Sam. We all want to hear what she has written."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Ap2cSOFVO
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqpZCKylO5
"I don't think that I'm distracting her," said Jongup as he looked at Zelo. "Right, Sam?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxIXo5TKbW
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOfBjzgncS
It's when he turned his head to look at me that I yelped and leaned back further than before, almost falling to the floor. Instead, I ended up leaning on Yong-nam.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1MWLB3zkOP
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8j9ZMeRvV
Jongup looked at me with a puzzled look on his face. It's either he didn't know what he was about to do or he knew and was just playing dumb.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hrH6u59RW
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2U5JNoWDj
"What's wrong, Sam?" he asked.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4ZUGRM3Zi
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxYUvqr5Ys
I suddenly blushed. He really didn't know that he had almost planted a kiss on me. Anyway, it's best not to tell him. I hope the others hadn't noticed.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5hcZiWxCTJ
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfvUVHT2WIm
"Goodness, Jongup," said Mike, "you almost kissed my sister."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSkwaS2nnWO
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdedCLzPNGB
And it just had to be Mike. Goodness, me!509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYUQdEew6r
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMoNPseR96
"Huh?" Jongup looked surprised. "I did?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd0YzyUEpWk
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV3VRvVPhEc
"And you were this close," said Zoey indicating a tiny space with her index finger and thumb.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8dVlqLmZ0Z
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQOLlvlLR9O
"Oh...," Jongup turned to look at me. I was still leaning onto Yong-nam's shoulder. "I'm so sorry, Sam. Maybe I shouldn't have leaned in too close."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3R0zMsxyVn
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP64QT0Xhyw
"You see, I told you so," said Zelo.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWH7sXAz2o
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkiOVnbkxU
"No, I'm okay," I said as I sat upright. "Sorry for leaning on you like that, Yong-nam. I hope I'm not too heavy."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfdLRm88BPF
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3z75j6LpQF
Yong-nam cleared his throat. "Not at all," he answered. "You're actually pretty light."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTnjrcpFC0v
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFfoMtsYbMo
I nervously laughed, not sure whether he meant it or not.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6yvdoRxbJ
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFa9LfgetjA
"Wow," said Zoey as she delightfully clapped her hands together. "First Sam avoids Jongup from kissing her and then she leans onto Yong-nam who prevents her from falling. So sweet."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiaZ2S2gFKG
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYL5mj46Ff
"You're such a fantasist, Zoey," said Daniel as he shook his head.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZgIdJVWxo
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipv5cmXGgm
"Don't mind her," I said. "Can we forget the kissing incident and focus on the song, please?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡum2g9Y7PSm
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvwd1XxfCAo
"Sure," said Mike. "That's if we can reset Zoey's brain or else she won't stop talking about it."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGvWQ5BsYxw
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡocOvDr4fAz
"Are you saying that I'm kookoo?" Zoey asked, looking at Mike.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPewkyisi2
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNYdOQrfklc
"You can argue later, you two," I said, giving them a look. "Let's try and focus."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKh06MwCyqa
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhnpsSt3nz
I went back to looking at the paper in front of me and read out the lyrics for them. Just like we did with BAP's song, we started coming up with lyrics. But this time, it proved to be a lot difficult than we expected. Whatever we came up with didn't really fit with the song.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQDsB4qiPB
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2JE8Q7a3l
"Is it just me or something's just off?" Young-jae asked.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvoFWwlycb6
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rJ9b8IFyZ
"I think I feel what you mean," said Zoey as she scratched her head.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84vyFOjRt1
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5e2j0rLh3N
"Huh? What's Zoey saying?" Himchan asked.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoCEafoISb
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWkU8xLVqw
"I told you we should've rewired her brain a little," said Mike as he turned to look at me. I shook my head. Zoey on the other hand, ignored him. That's so unlike her.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4OO5CxGwm
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hAkNmTCNs
"I feel we aren't working like we did the first time," said Christine.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYkYXZ3rLp
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr1kCQug4dM
"Ya, that's what I meant," said Zoey.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSndpVtdY1G
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCa9vJEQBeO
"We just aren't coming up with the right lyrics," said Yong-guk, "that's all."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJ74qYfA2T
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI96UqQGcfC
"Why is that?" Himchan asked.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcfrZCJhZ8M
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp6j1PSYxGp
"Who knows," said Daniel. "What do you think, Sam?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcjImSdtqj
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡajymEeoRg3
I shrugged my shoulders as I also couldn't figure out why we found it so difficult. I scratched the back of my head and pouted my lip a little.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡskYvjdhTvE
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡowAqyqvvFm
"You look like you're about to cry, Sam," said Jongup.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2D9PVJ24ck
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxfCewJF78
"Don't mind me," I said. "I'm frustrated that we're going nowhere."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡruSZ0UZ6Z1
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjjv9QYxCll
"Maybe we're all just tired," said Zelo.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRLQM13gHP
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOa5c2sHSoX
"I felt we rested enough," said Daehyun.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxpxAl1h9L
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtU6mb8YAw4
"Or maybe we've been in the same place for too long," I suggested. "Sometimes the environment contributes greatly."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWD7NUNwnF
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsZ7gjRgGF
"Maybe," said Yong-guk.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9TCHPmmAv
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHj1VssAXb
"What do you think, Yong-nam?" Christine asked as she turned to look at him.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrhe4DNnvl
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwSuaw26BpH
He raised his arms up to stretch. As soon as he put them down, he said, "I think we're all just tired. We exhausted ourselves working on BAP's piece and thought we would do the same with this one. If you ask me, we should just call it a day and continue tomorrow."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHuK5vQl7nE
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡosXAczecNd
"Tomorrow?" Daniel looked shocked at the idea. "Won't that be a little too late for us?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkmoIlcw2PM
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCX8ZFfsrF1
"You're right," I said as I slapped my forehead. "We've to meet the songwriters and composers for the album. We won't have enough time."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW6Bc6Lc7jW
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkA00vhvsA0
"Not forgetting that we should at least have something to present to Yang Hyun-suk," said Zoey.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwNscYuMIh9
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNkZQLcqWF
"I told Collins to buy me more time, but I doubt Yang Hyun-suk will even want to hear it. Goodness, just thinking about it feels overwhelming." I buried my face into my hands.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ9bwbGUTPN
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMYqo8pZXI8
"Now I wish we never had to make an album," said Zoey as she leaned back on the chair and sighed.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡss8lH3xRKx
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxOYQQBcOw
"Wow, you guys are working on an album?" Jongup asked.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgOmsL70Es
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvplAuWKst
"Yep," I answered as I lifted my face up from my hands. "Our managers are ambitious."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqT97s9UB4
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbi5qQgBWW6
"At least we don't have to worry about the other songs," said Zoey.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4svOh6yOXj
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ75HxAM0yvi
"But you heard what Collins said this morning, Zoey. This one has to be awesome. But the way we're so exhausted, I feel we aren't going anywhere."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpUayaFncK
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmnaWVHvCif
"I think we should take a little break," said Yong-nam.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVyIu2iQluP
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8W3aHWLEg
I went back first onto the floor with my eyes closed. I really did feel exhausted. Why did fatigue have to settle in like this?509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyO4onH87Md
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2G4e95T0v2
"You're scaring me, Sam," I heard Yong-guk say.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyiQdKH6yvB
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq7MIPX4Ybn
"Oh, don't mind her," said Zoey. "She started this and finding a way to finish it is frustrating."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIVsEYtQA1e
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf7hC4JFbxd
I smiled a little at what Zoey said. Starting something and not finishing it really is frustrating, especially if it involves something that you really love to do. And with time ticking by, Yang Hyun-suk and Collins will have no choice but to be disappointed tomorrow.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhBi3CPRLQ
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9yC46OqW9S
"Wait..., does this mean we won't have the reward Lee was talking about?" I heard Daniel ask.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyJB2DZEyxv
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHehbcZkBuh
I opened my eyes as I remembered Daesung's invitation. I really wish I could tell them the truth, but I held my tongue. Even if we leave this place without much progress, Lee won't hold us back because it isn't much of a reward, but an invitation to go out for an outdoor movie. I sat up.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXWIbvlDKF
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbtcKg6h4lH
"Don't worry about that, Daniel," I said. "Lee will give us that reward."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiLcXYnLJaa
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpFj8zapM9p
"For someone who seems tired, you sound pretty confident," said Himchan.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxg0xNK1c4
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡieB2rJin01
"I just know." I smiled at him as I shrugged my shoulders.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYLZ2lOoqHa
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWamzb9Siwm
"Do you've any idea what it could be?" Daniel asked.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBABsgww6Ns
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyiKII7PR9h
I shook my head. It's best it turns out as a surprise.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGMrbkADaS
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomVQk8WuV4
"So, what are we going to do now?" Zelo asked. "Just sit and do nothing?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcSeam2TOe3
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNLR9HiEmq
"We can do something fun to pass the time," Christine suggested.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbvuZgbfQE4
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxmtntzzV5q
"Not me," I went back to lying down on the floor.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLOs1MhXrY5
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxAOeexR40B
No one said a word. I could feel a few eyes on me, while others, I'm guessing, gave each other looks.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4NQ5xRQlN
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiro5QS1Z0R
"Come on, Sam," said Zoey. "You're such a party pooper."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2Qpc4mNhc
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqRTghajZYv
"Haven't heard you call me that in a while," I said as I smiled at the ceiling.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbyJIznphZj
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu49TpNG0fW
"Get up, will you? This is no time to be lying down."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9gPZt4WwdH
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwTjPz5PPdJ
"There's nothing wrong with lying down to rest, is there?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryhl65ElJS
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9z8uSEzNSa
"Goodness, me." Zoey sounded frustrated. She couldn't argue over that and she knew it.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7RRBpNU09
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD7ggaHqVvh
"Maybe we should call Lee to pick us up," Mike suggested.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFv5zSOzRd
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5UrSWYNgW
"Don't bother," I said as I closed my eyes. "With us not under her radar anymore she's probably doing something for herself right now."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEdE3qdJtbZ
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRT1fpUULxY
I heard Zelo and Daehyun chuckle while I heard Christine and Zoey mutter out in frustration.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZInkmo4VJ9
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhl32pODVn3
"Looks like you're stuck here with us until Lee comes to pick you up," I heard Yong-guk say.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJw67ymZ1S
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaop2X2Yr8u
"But we can't sit here doing nothing," said Daniel. "Like Christine said, we better find something to do."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvHnPZQMVYv
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGjDOxr1713
"You should be resting," I suggested, my eyes still closed.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWPTgjsFgy
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIS6TAFXoh
"Well, we don't want to," said Zoey. I imagined her folding her arms and looking at me like she would at Mike when he got her angry.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT8HsU87p4y
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡajYAEwQxjm
I smiled. "Suit yourself."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn2fuljc7UV
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTadCusgxHX
"No one wants to do karaoke in the recording booth?" Jongup suggested.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvPSY0E033
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsAUg1n20BD
"I think we've done enough singing for one day," said Daehyun.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbAiOnh1uW
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQ78reMkeZ
"I agree," said Zoey.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH13DSVnIy3
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhT65tC8voF
"If there's clearly nothing to do, then I think we should be resting like Sam's doing right now," said Yong-guk.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIHiLRaNYbo
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSTqKr2D3A0
"I like your thinking," I said with my eyes closed. I raised my hand to give him a thumbs up.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk0Ic4XttP5
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxyb4G5nVZo
"You songwriters all think the same," I heard Christine mutter.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTeDbuDuR1r
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTCqnUcfV2e
"I might not agree with all this," Mike started to say, "but I'm going through with Sam's idea. I'm just going to lean back on the couch a little."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Nd8QfbWZj
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qHHIDn38h
"Huh? Not you too, Mike," said Zoey, sounding surprised.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡInSzFPVoPV
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDnOnpDKII
"Quit it, Zoey." I heard him move on the couch, obviously putting himself in a more comfortable position. "There's nothing to do. Why not relax for a bit?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQPH2SNI8e
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ729LrCJuIy
"I shouldn't be surprised coming from you."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXNzpZsh4OV

509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBO718ykrE
"Well, if there's nothing for you guys to do at the moment, then I'm going to work on something," said Yong-guk.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOp5oWfzgtc
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeoCzNqT7ke
"And what could that be?" Young-jae asked.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ucdGDmjQu
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3cuvEK1r5
"Our song, of course."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlNCEboFowP
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡesYKOJg2dR
"You go ahead and do that," I said.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIEHVV9OSEy
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTQS53FYoG
There came an awkward pause and I opened one eye to look at him.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfIkA4BYQdW
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡePhiWUhCl3
"You look surprised, Yong-guk," said Yong-nam. He took the words right out of my mouth.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQPPjpfXWqZ
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNyyarXgw7
"I thought that would get Sam up from the floor since she seems to really like helping out," said Yong-guk.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0dfRtabgrG
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0IQ3a9yNWc
"I'm drained," I said as I closed my one eye and placed my open palm under my head. "As exciting as it sounds, I'll pass."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXmQSF08qm
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0u7edGzXqZ
"Okay, then," said Yong-guk. "And you, Mike?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DphoUFmi7
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg1mJp7FJOj
"I'll pass too," said Mike.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlxiXIhPuJ0
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXLjVZ7J63
"Okay. I'll be by the console. Any of you guys want to join me?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwSGdwxgCxX
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRBJSQ59Al
"Well...," Zelo sounded hesitant and I heard a scratching sound across the table. I imagined he was scratching his head, wondering whether to go or not. "Me too," he finally said. "I don't feel like working on the song right now."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7TCW4Jd60
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBilRfw7MaT
"I'm going to relax over here too," said Young-jae.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjoNtSuwXA
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhttWEz4mYU
"What's up with everyone?" Yong-guk asked, sounding surprised.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEt599X5hTa
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWITejgEgXm
"Like Yong-nam said, we're tired," I said as I sat up. "The best thing to do right now is relax."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFzzFivqIrg

509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ9xN1ZDgtM
"I was about to ask the same question," said Zoey with a sulky look on her face. 509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2puygCED4P
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFN0lXc8Z6
I shrugged. "At first I was, but right now, I need to relax a little before my brain explodes. Don't let me stop you from working on your song."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcByA7VD5KW
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemuShqvhDM
"Alright, then," said Yong-nam as he also slept on the floor. "Looks like I can also rest. Keeping your eyes on time can be tiring too."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8Sq679jn6
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlHnpUd5TlG
"You of all people shouldn't even be sleeping," said Yong-guk.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZqrBVcbA4
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrXz4QqQ8M7
I laughed. As much as I wanted to hear these two brothers argue, it ended there. I went back to sleeping on the floor.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtLArRFIZq
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQRJUmV2zTr
"I'm going to join the relaxing spree too," said Jongup, as he pulled out his phone from his pocket and slept on the floor beside me.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3mfCEr2ItO
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKScJ9hgj6u
"Looks like the majority wins," said Himchan as he chuckled.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlAK6WnrxJ
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi063C1YT75
Zoey mourned in frustration. Even I could tell she's tired. She had no choice but to give in.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Qo1FhAr4X
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DWr7G13Gf
"Oh, man!" Daniel muttered out loud.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6L8oJONQhi
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07FiUGbXfi
I lifted my head from the floor to see what Daniel's doing. He had his phone out too and tapping at it. He's probably playing a game.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTo1vE16jb
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDiLfNCIU5J
"Sorry, guys," he said. He quickly looked up from his phone when he noticed people's eyes on him. "Playing a game over here."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR0VdzIkaxv
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZfK1r3hBV
I shook my head at him as I put my head back on the floor. I looked beside me and saw Jongup on Instagram looking at cute cat videos. I turned the other side to see Yong-nam with his arm over his face, covering his eyes. He did seem just as tired as all of us. He did help come up with some lyrics, so no argument there.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9dH6Tbc0G
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbgGMD8keo
I heard Zoey sigh and that brought a smile across my face. "I give up," she said. "I haven't been on Twitter lately. Time to see what's going on in the world."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7d7ducsIa
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSi8Cfr0ZQ
"I think I'll have a little shut-eye," said Christine.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ4dCwydSgY
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZlUcWOHFcS
Everyone seemed to be busy doing their own things now. I counted Jongup, Daniel, Young-jae and Zoey on their phones. Daehyun, Himchan and Zelo were engaged in a conversation. Even when Mike was resting on the couch, he seemed to be contributing whenever he can. Christine, Yong-nam and I were really the ones resting as we closed our eyes.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2VflBhnMxV
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6Pz7nlkuF
I heard someone stand up and guessed it was Yong-guk. I could hear footsteps head towards the other side of the room where the recording booth and console were. He seemed serious with what he wanted to do. I continued to lay there on the floor, hoping that I don't fall asleep.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhOx2bf0NY9
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjOET4IO9H
I found myself slowly imagining about the outdoor movie we were going to watch. Will it be an oldies movie? I would love to watch such. It just sets you in the mood when it has to.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5fJLiH81Lq
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfQp9JZYWW
I heard Jongup chuckle to himself and I knew he's still on his cat videos. A thought crossed my mind. Here I am thinking of the outdoor movie when I should be thinking about the song. I don't feel like dwelling on it. Now is the time to relax, nothing more.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQb6xwgGMoL
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqvW82wDQ6w
"Hey, Sam?" I heard Jongup call me. "Are you asleep?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡebychXOst1
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEEZaNpOhFA
"No," I answered. I drew my eyes open and looked at him. "What is it?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdEVad3xzo5
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFarOESC7B5
"Watch this," he said as he scooted closer that our heads nearly touched. He held his phone up for the two of us to see. We watched a cute cat video where a little white and brown kitten was chasing a movable toy mouse on the floor. It was cute and yet funny at the same time as the kitten tried so many times to capture it. Jongup and I laughed.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6HdGFeOVIA
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkjxIJzCx7q
"Oh, my," I said as I wiped away the tears in my eyes. "The little kitten really struggled. But you've to admit, it's so cute."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo8IBZWWQbg
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkA74GWfXtO
"I know," said Jongup. "You should see this previous one. It will knock your socks off."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB9DivHcZ32
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHlyy3Z4BoZ
I joined Jongup in watching more cat videos. We soon moved on to watch people participate in various dance challenges.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbnnRYVbKLu
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIuN5fzdfEu
"We should've a dance challenge one day," I said to Jongup as we watched.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNub82GzANi
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAsVe9WBxCo
"Huh?" he turned to look at me. "We should've a dance challenge?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtLKljrKzs
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUBwBPuWHZ
"Ya. I mean The Toxins vs BAP."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxg0RLwX9p8
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRFuxdnBUW
"Oh..., like the one you had with Monsta X?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡonltZi7ht9
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGZjzl8WDx
"Yes, like that one. You watched it?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDeGwmtF4V
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRPpc0laBR
"I think a lot of us did. People really liked it."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJ7sjzzcTc
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEdlVy6s9Za
"Too bad we lost. But it was fun. We should've one one of these days. That's if we could even make the time for it."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGswUnJfqqe
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUPeOu0Glx
"Oh, you've an album to work on."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ70a6ea5M8i
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4xq6oMRlE
I stared at the ceiling and sighed. "Just thinking about it drains me." I went back to looking at his phone.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvAD5BVEdH
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEMs9pcYqa
"Did I hear someone talk about having a dance challenge with BAP?" Zoey asked.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRyxjHMSRJg
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡojqI5m1QLh
I raised my head a little and saw Zoey still on her phone.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcemFiGDZkD
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNEoPBG73FS
"Yes, I said that," I said as I dropped my head and stared at Jongup's phone.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14XdKJ3E8t
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUeWnkNPMsa
"Why not do so now?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzIEkFPunw
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuvv9xqigd1
"No!" Christine, Mike and I said out loud at the same time.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡip4tQdJRQg
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRg2fWzP26d
"Eish, guys. It's why I asked. You don't have to eat me alive."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgGK6Z4Osi
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYQ4cTM3Rt
Himchan and the other BAP members around the table started to chuckle.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxvtHP0qUL
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0eQhlWDcJS
"You Toxins really are something," said Himchan. "You do know that the majority of you opposed, right?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMgYyRrmh6
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGO7aiusbbI
"Except Daniel," said Zelo.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wpa60jgN4
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAzTG1rD8e
"Oh, I refuse too," said Daniel, still on his phone.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuowVI6swWa
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqBqqBSoOTK
Zoey tsked. "You guys are no fun."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHVJeSlZLn1
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQTFJVIqtI
"Use logic, Zoey," said Christine. "We're all tired and don't have the energy for a dance challenge."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvYs6YwoaA
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHekh7JrSSv
"I know that. I thought maybe someone's in the mood for it."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYvTN7ZIiXd
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU3QzEy5CoK
"No one is in the mood for it," said Mike.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Sx3w6UOQ0
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1lWhGxwjF
"And what if the BAP members were?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1KBbirpOgy
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPi0TQ7O6De
I heard Daehyun nervously chuckle. "To be honest, Zoey," he said, "I'm definitely not in the mood."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyiXxWd1r9n
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiVeC3bZl2q
"Me too," said Young-jae.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuqFENr6VoF
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuvaMKsk3jl
"Me three," said Zelo.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpTooKsr85
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnOhRL5rB2
"Guess I don't have to ask you, Himchan," said Zoey, sounding unimpressed.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA20ifq2wAR
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3jppBaedrv
Himchan, just like Daehyun, nervously chuckled too.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrk1Dq0QrMB
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcb92P6Tw08
"You can ask Yong-guk," Zelo suggested.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnuUJct7d7W
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ12eTPElugb
"Nah. He's already busy and I don't like to be a bother."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQb70nOfjvF
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8svqY9pwjZ
"Really?" Mike asked. Uh-oh. I smell an argument brewing. "You bother a lot of us everyday."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVmiKYvn5X
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJI07DR1B7
"What did you say!?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEZGnCqmPo
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqga0bQ9RuL
"Quiet down, Zoey," said Christine. "You're disturbing Yong-nam. He's probably asleep."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBEzPnshn2J
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoAmhkTeWjw
I turned to look at Yong-nam beside me and saw him move his arm above his eyes. He had one eye open. He turned his eye to look at me. I almost yelped. I felt embarrassed that he had caught me looking at him. The corner of his lips raised to a smile. He closed his eye and moved his arm back to cover his eyes. That was it.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlE2nHBRgj9
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydeS0B8vrY
"I bet he isn't," said Zoey. "Is he, Sam?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0emRDVd64q
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiyL4Omv7x9
"Huh?" I got a little caught off guard as I didn't answer Zoey's question.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH9TlpBUUlQ
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPr2m2j8Ku
"Is he awake?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4Ni2cPDC2
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7tbgfBJDAh
"Not sure," I answered. "He would've said something if he was."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2Z9zIYFY7
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡviBMGpa8li
I looked at him and noticed a wide smile on his face. Okay...., didn't know what to make of it, so I quickly turned my attention back to Jongup's phone.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡevALBebC5d
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAIyJUnBo9c
"Anyway, where was I?" Zoey asked as she paused to think a bit. I noticed that no one's willing to remind her. It's best not to.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vNzZ0MjsW
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn4juzvNeV5
"Ah-ha!" she exclaimed. "It's what you said, Mike. How am I a bother to you?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyelv4CK5wp
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjY89g2Tg5H
"You're being a bother right now. I'm trying to rest and you're disturbing me."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdzlz0M9Dx8
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvGtEFoCPMq
Zoey hissed that I thought a snake had magically appeared in the room. If she was one, no doubt she would attack Mike first.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFr22qtQG6S
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnt58ztwnYY
"Enough," said Christine. "No one wants to see or hear you two fight."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZa6Pq0TcUJ
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9qXT33ht5
"Mike started it," said Zoey.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqqmkRtL8LX
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJu9kakRXC
"You amplified it," said Mike. "You always do."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFreQvOzrXa
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUT74bl5cmK
"For once I agree with Mike," I said. "Let it go, Zoey."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBWEn95vzDi
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPMmgAi2uf
"You guys are unbelievable," said Zoey.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAcf5Wqqi5B
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvB3pF9pTcq
"You're unbelievable," said Himchan as he chuckled. "You really are a drama queen. No offense."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jBBcBdsDv
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlXjjwbcf8
"None taken. These guys call me that all the time."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9nMfxlaeIV
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFweEUeRnUn
After a while, all of us settled back to what we were doing. I was still watching videos with Jongup when I suddenly sat up from the floor. If I continued lying there, I would probably have a backache.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXeoTc9BzyD
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb6UknHuIvB
I stretched out my arms and stood up, stretching my whole body.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNpY86kKZJA
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgAvdgXrSwb
"I've had enough of watching Instagram videos," I told Jongup.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtXL1Ex6vHZ
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBNIvf5FUO
He gave me a smile and went back to looking at his phone. I turned to look at everyone and almost all of them were either quietly resting or on their phones.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqsCwkipAS
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgP3G5YXBrF
I looked over at Yong-guk who was still seated at the console. I decided to go over and see how he's progressing with the song.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdambk0v7w
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcIxJRPXPnw
"Hey, there," I said to him when I got behind him. I bent over to look at him from the side of his face.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXsfeE8LGWn
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtcZ6sHtwm1
"Oh, Sam," he looked up at me, surprised. "I didn't hear you coming."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡINWP670ytM
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxD6p1nOzKz
"I've cat feet," I said as I took the empty seat next to him.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZh2XeePECD
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIbQZaUGHi
"Cat feet?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaoNs7TZhaS
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZEzcVkejsH
"I'm told there are times when people don't hear me coming so they say I've cat feet. I sometimes scare them."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGM9ZDzucKp
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbgjjlyg37b
"Oh, I see."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsbV4ffmrgu
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKxl0xCyev
"It's true, Yong-guk," Zoey said behind us. "So don't upset her or else she might come to your room and murder you."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4YuskjhL0A
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCbYvBW95v
"I'll keep that in mind," said Yong-guk as he turned to smile at her.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5VWeBhLNsC
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4XA5nS8dyx
"Don't listen to her," I said as I turned to look at the console in front of me. "So, what are you really working on? I thought we were done and dusted with your song."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpaXUHTS2nt
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCIP0DLgAz
"I'm not working on our song," said Yong-guk as he went to work on the laptop.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXclBEEnNGf
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr8hiAMLIIR
"Then, what are you working on?" I raised my eyebrow at him.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmkW4zYZ6Js
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwuZmMUIDnF
"On your song," he answered.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMCFbmNlsD
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPniazWDjvS
"Huh?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ90E5Yn7nXY
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUSGuSk4dy
"The tune you played earlier gave me a little inspiration to somehow come up with an instrumental. It's still not finished since I just started."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3vlcmGMFoz
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxXtCvb72w
"Wow." I'm surprised. I didn't think Yong-guk would go this far. I didn't even know what to say.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvTSdSCQOf
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJq2DaVipl
"Hey, are you okay, Sam?" Yong-guk asked.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRAEX4Ui2dE
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoICKKD2dma
I quickly turned to look at him. "Huh?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGb2o14nkDi
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHpriWngbos
"You spaced out for a bit. Is it a bad idea that I'm working on the instrumental? I know there will probably be someone working on it, but I thought I could do something, you know?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4QY5QygcUZ
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMuFYuo9t3K
I smiled at him. He really means it. There aren't many people in the world who are so thoughtful.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeT9lYtl3DI
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvngiAlqdOB
"I know what you mean. And no. I think there's no better person to work on it than you, Yong-guk."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnJZuvzmNc
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBWOr8wrGvc
"Really?" He looked a little surprised with what I said.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRo51lvQmW
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEn8ATUybrF
"Of course! Who would've thought we would've you helping us? It's actually really nice of you."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1z1NW2GCul
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdruFgI0VKr
I noticed his cheeks start to redden a little and he quickly turned away. I continued to smile. I had this overwhelming feeling like I could hug him, but now isn't the time.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovSCu6qdFX
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIRnR0JoKKB
"May I hear what you've done so far?" I asked.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznypuOQj0I
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qI0AQfLJj
"Ah..., sure," he said as he brought over the laptop closer.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡouGcVqG4VU
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXC8jjeCRje
He showed me what he had done and even when the instrumental was short, it sounded great. He really did follow the tune and melody like I had done with the guitar. He also added a few beats into the mix making the song sound more like pop.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgA0sHIlwHe
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOrHFEG0Ofd
"Amazing," I looked at him with so much awe. "It's no wonder you're such a great producer."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4Xb6bBEO5
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJcILRX77b1
He chuckled. "Coming from you, that means a lot."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWgLxxNsBdq
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOkuUtHNzv
"The others should hear this." My ear twitched. "I know you're there, Mike."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡixwwOlLyrP
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡppciEYMO45
"Dang it!" I heard him mutter. Yong-guk and I turned around to see him behind us. "How come my cat feet can't work on you?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPKPbAmZup
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7XaUwKbWJf
"Because what you've ain't cat feet," I smirked at him. "You've to work a lot harder than that."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijQU2PTIjn
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6sJbcexhTR
"Anyway....," he came closer and placed his hands on my shoulder and Yong-guk's, "what is it that some of us have to listen to?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgIcqPtrRAK
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5WnlubRWvg
"This," I said as I pressed the play button on the laptop, playing out the instrumental for him.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuPH32okBVY
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkiYm8NoSs6
"Wow," muttered Mike. "But wait..., why does this beat sound familiar?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxzfbIR3x6v
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJpLPk4ijaT
"It's because it's the beat to our song, silly," I said to him.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXyxOjvx4r
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZfWwd9Dse
"Wow! Really!" I saw Mike look at Yong-guk just like I did earlier, with so much awe. "This is what you were working on?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvEy0V5qM1
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSLhwL4Nwe
Yong-guk nodded his head. Mike almost screamed like a girl, but he tried not to be so loud. I couldn't help but chuckle. He looked like his five year old self when he got a remote control car for his birthday.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVB7nHhuuJ
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbCrFUJMrh
"You're amazing," he said as he patted Yong-guk on the shoulder. "This song will be awesome."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkaeHqQ1TLD
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmAaguEiwy1
"Thanks," he said. "You should be thanking your sister, though."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd643pPoTYx
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMCXNgSAiZ
"Huh?" Mike and I looked pluzzled.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0W0QIMHCiC
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpxgRnnFOd
"Remember what I said," he said as he looked at me. "The way you played with the guitar inspired me to come up with this."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvUDae52SiZ
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTkxTsUCDy5
"Oh...," I forgot he said that. Now it's my turn to blush, and Yong-guk smiled.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWRVTV4d8E
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJyGH3vpolo
"Ya, my sister is a genius," said Mike. "May I join you?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqjL9TY4m5I
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBipVGkHUI2
"Sure," said Yong-guk. "With you two here, I bet we can work on it together."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjMLrbCkqN
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9971ItD2rK
"And probably come up with lyrics for the song," I said when it dawned on me. "That's why you wanted me to come and join you here by the console."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4pbxjI742
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgTLTYD8rUY
"I see you've got what I intended to do." Yong-guk turned to look at me with a smile. Mike sat on his other side. "I thought working on the instrumental will give you some idea on lyrics for the song."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuALBkxrmg7
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyoeIDg33MN
"We'll see," said Mike as he rubbed his hands together and looking at the console before him like a hot, tasty meal he couldn't wait to put in his mouth.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcvJpTEqNY
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGjmNbzHxC
"Alright, let's start," said Yong-guk.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkGbtVGBmHN
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9YlvfPfUb
The three of us worked on the beats maker software on the laptop. With Mike's creativity and Yong-guk's producer skills, working on the instrumental was smooth and simple. We had no idea how long we had been working on it, but we had fun and joked around whenever we could.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqAw4dXDEMg
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlnBgk1928f
"Hey, what's going on here?" Himchan asked as he came to join us.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgmYfA3KXn
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIH5ihFVB5W
"We're working on an instrumental," Mike answered.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaZoiBAw7ri
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGAgylBM5Q
"Which one?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYFxh2S96a
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2M9PkxI6T8
"For our song," I answered. "You should hear it, it's really good."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2ItOe6Yqw
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡONmd4X7xP3
"Oh, I thought you had run out of ideas for the lyrics."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFo0a9SbZhm
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO5q27BZ3NJ
"Well, I did. Maybe if I continue working on the instrumental, I might come up with them."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡigwG0jfOAz
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUiIgtctd9
"How far have you gone doing so?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4yv16yFAM
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzCnwmjoVHL
"Not too far," Yong-guk answered. "We've only tried to work on the first part and heading to the chorus. But even that needs a lot of work."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsWiUPqQ09s
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwnMXCt8Il
"I agree," said Mike.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUaAqwHSpGg
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡumJ1GpWsM4
"And you're going to use this instrumental for your album?" Himchan asked.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSJmKsCS4x
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQV2zpMF0j
"Of course we're," I answered, looking back at him. I now understood why he asked and I winced.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ331IHxWXn
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZXBIMWnlX
"What is it, Sam?" Mike asked.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLttZVUASNl
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcbRDLYxq35
"We need to seek permission to use this instrumental." I scratched the back of my head. "Goodness, why didn't I think about this before?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2WzbJUcZXm
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DXxBBTXFV
"Oh, ya," Mike turned to look at me quickly. "Why can't you give Collins a call and tell him that we've someone helping us?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMYNeka3PjM
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4en4FmkbgZ
"Collins may agree. But what about Yang Hyun-suk?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLImTl6gvA
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZrbjDHeRxR
Mike and I stared at each other. We both winced like we had done something wrong and we would be in big trouble for it.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg4IqfGCRvw
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpKY3dZ6Iu
"Gosh, the man is troubling," said Mike as he leaned back in his seat. "He can hunt you in your dreams if you think about him too much."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpk1bvDopZw
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSzev1bU7Ke
"He's really strict," I said. "And he's also hard to impress. If we do play out the instrumental for him, would he really like it?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOqRtzO8uCP
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2yxAK7vcj
"This is your tune and melody, Sam. So, he can't refuse. I mean, the song we did with BigBang was all you too."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvG4IFOrHp4
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡucGdQSbKdi
"It was?" Yong-guk and Himchan asked at the same time.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56ZT8E9ok1
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNk2wSl882
"Never mind that," I told them as I went back to looking at Mike. "I'm worried because Yong-guk is helping us produce this one. Will Yang Hyun-suk agree?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWxAwEtXRQ
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyaOfSKy0y0
"As long as he knows you thought of it in the first place, he'll definitely agree." Mike leaned forward so as to look at me.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXj9bqXOrN
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wcrBnOXo0
"Does this thing involving me always have to be highlighted?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUgt4OoLUi
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4mFVQ5AKOa
"Daa, yes! Out of all of us, Yang Hyun-suk approves of you the most. He'll definitely go through with it."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpWWjnsTZ8n
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDrKJFuEM46
I gave Mike a look. I don't consider myself as Yang Hyun-suk's favourite among The Toxins. I'm just afraid he won't approve.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7es8OO1D8
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKzH6HvR7X
"Okay, if that's the case, than what of Yong-guk? Will he really help us through till the end?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOi7Q9bG4L
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBEofNgj4p
"I don't think we've to worry about that. Besides, even if he didn't offer to help, he seemed to do it out of his own free will, you know."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP7OgbGjrNW
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEFHjL1TwD
"I'm right here, you guys," said Yong-guk in between Mike and me. "I can clearly hear you."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRvshNXwBjG
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Og8SQZere
Mike and I turned to look at him, then ignored him like he wasn't there. Himchan chuckled.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWeMCvCHZyz
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVs71UxmWqM
"You're right," I said. "He'll stay till the end. He's such a good friend for helping us out."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF5MHAtgg1J
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXiVka2CCAi
"I know right," Mike smiled. "He's awesome."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrzqxdAwCrE
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQf4JC5QdV
"I think you better focus on giving Collins a call, Sam," said Yong-guk, trying to sound serious, yet falling to do so.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGgdbkFYHjU
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcldNvjdSAF
"Aww," Himchan complained. "Their conversation was just about to get more interesting."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡViwUTWqE0B
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn1cm117ueG
I laughed. "He's just trying to hide the fact that he's blushing."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVTNg0hmjHU
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnSstfB59RD
"No, I'm not," said Yong-guk as he folded his arms and looked straight ahead, avoiding eye contact.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡycNy9Phwg7
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaYvrDmarhk
Mike burst out laughing that he leaned back further in his seat. "Stop trying to put up a serious face, Yong-guk," he said. "You look awfully funny."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKypQNVNtF2
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJeTGtX4nG
I couldn't help but agree with Mike as I also started laughing. I had to keep in mind that I had a phone call to make. I soon stood up from my seat.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdU4IkTjyUc
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3nlTwKyvq
"I'll be back," I said as I tried to stop laughing. "You better not have that face when I get back, Yong-guk."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYsIjsuyMFG
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9s7GIT8Gfm
I walked away from the others as I made my way to the door. I needed to be somewhere more private if I am to talk with Collins.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW9wCqTTGH5
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf0xQpkCBka
I stepped out into the hall and looked both ways. There's nobody walking around. I pulled out my phone from my pocket and searched for Collins' number. I pressed the call button and placed the phone to my ear.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIaUIHV7Fme
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdDM8oiHpd9
His phone rang, and it kept on ringing. I grew worried that he might not answer. Maybe he's busy. He did say he would be occupied today. I better call him at a later time.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxgAjknjzO
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5i9heDsFV
Just when I'm about to cut the call, he picked up at the last minute.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQoW12GRjg
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ03uiHHrMDv
"Hi, Sam," came his voice. "How's song writing going?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9IFuzK2KFl
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHOTKNi8dvQ
"Not good, I'm afraid," I said as I scratched the back of my head wondering how to bring up the instrumental thing.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9DQj5az7Ts
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN0JkVKmD8N
"You'll figure it out. You do have extra help, don't you?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5srhHlCc0C
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKelvkJcBNm
"I see Lee told you about BAP."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTGoytiSpSq
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYVRCVNXx6
"Well, she had to. So what can I do for you?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRfjhXJjArN
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0bIKvW54G
"Well, we were working on the song and we felt a little stuck. So we had help with coming up with the instrumental for the song."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbYX1cb9oa
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGoRvfTHHss
"You're already coming up with that?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXkpvQfEC1
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg4Uy17D384
I scratched the back of my head even more as I started to pace up and down in front of the door. "Well, ya. You see, Yong-guk - the leader of BAP - kind of got inspired to make us the instrumental because of the way I played it with the guitar. So we were wondering if it's okay with you that we use it for the song."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDF4gfZjE3t
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvGJeR1CynY
There was silence on the other end. I wonder what Collins must be thinking. He's a little unpredictable sometimes and he might not agree with it.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0XXpP4pcwe
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKizYFeTA5K
"Well," he started to say, "we would've to listen to it to see if it's actually good. The big problem is whether he should be working on it in the first place."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHLlZueNru
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDsEhfnRt2l
I knew it. I had to say something quick to convince him.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoleovDUCCk
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyErv7ElLXW
"I know, but he's really good. And besides, Mike and I are helping out too. You can be rest assured that it will be great."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCzehDSmB6B
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6DjW6WKT2
"I believe you. But you know I'm not the only manager in this project of ours."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyO3da9DYNr
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQF3NPjxEE
"If you could talk to Yang Hyun-suk for me, I bet he would agree. Yong-guk is a great producer and he's reputation proves that otherwise."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUxwTxbG0nM
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTDqXaGbGd
"I don't have to talk to Yang Hyun-suk. He's right here with me. I put you on loud speaker."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ90g9EhHVXN
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzadgX8laA
I swallowed as I stopped pacing and my heart did one huge beat that I felt my chest hurt.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUDDqPu6P2y
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpWW6ofMXl
"Oh..., good afternoon, Yang Hyun-suk sarangnim," I said quickly, so as not to seem surprised.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbCWR8m9r7
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpaLv6KJxRb
"Afternoon," came Yang Hyun-suk's voice. I could feel beads of sweet starting to form on my forehead. "I heard everything you had to say."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡruKqqKCpaF
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNqmJtPrnj2
"And what do you think?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCIUTVKq3y
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzi8T9GTf35
"Well..., as much as the idea sounds tempting, I would actually refuse."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV5dAdwr80Y
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrd8JO2fXeT
My heart sank. I told myself it was worth a try anyway.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qfAEe6vD2
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0OTmUw2Lxl
"But," he continued, "we're talking about Bang Yong-guk, and he's reputation, like you've said, precedes him. If he does want to help out and you think he's the right producer for the job, then I've no objection to it. You can proceed with making the instrumental."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXhbW4l1srb
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4AMeBfaLqp
"Really!" I cried out in excitement. I can't believe he actually agreed.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2Em1XMfUr
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTkXJP3qMHD
"Let's not forget that we're the ones that have the final say. If it's good, then we will proceed."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡskLtVuDfdF
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWbAmhRHmUP
"Thank you!" I said with so much excitement. I could hear the two managers chuckle to themselves. "I promise you won't be disappointed."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU1FgEX1xyZ
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKcKoIJHNt
"Make us proud, Sam," said Collins. "I hope you'll be able to come up with lyrics."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡix09CaQMfL
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26UpGi3g4J
"I will. Thank you once again."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡduFKejMxu4
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrqLjx74fPX
The two managers wished me luck. As soon as the line cut, I punched the air with excitement. We're really doing this. I can't wait to tell the others.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLe0LOKdUr0
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6E6cjg8II
I turned around and opened the door to the studio. As soon as I went in, I quickly rushed over to the others on the console.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxIThhMXspK
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjiaZqxbVs2
"What's the news?" Mike asked as he looked at me.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl346bZ9dvK
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNpKqGRibH0
"I hope it's good," said Himchan.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLrMIDfFzV
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWJvRV5uyE
"What news?" asked Daniel who was still seated on the couch. His eyes left the phone as he looked at us who were by the console.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZAhepejty
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYMGuJn5n2
"They agreed," I answered.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLVN4O2Z4r
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwNHI0gJxbH
Himchan and Mike clapped, looking relieved. Yong-guk leaned back in his seat, looking cool and composed, but I could tell that he was just as happy as the three of us.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Cx0Gx9gDY
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfnGchyz5wr
"Who agreed to what?" Daniel asked as he stood up from his couch to come over and join us. "I want to know what's going on."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMH5ly4HT6
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdGJgL6RTzZ
"Ya, I'm also anxious to know what you're all talking about," said Daehyun.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKB19uzhSe9
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFyCeTSH5Q1
"Me too," said Zoey. "What did I miss?"509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9UL5sHwpZ
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemYxq5eFxi
"A lot," I answered.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrlgkA4C65a
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFaz8M5H9bJ
I told them what was going on and how I somehow managed to talk to the managers to go through with Yong-guk's instrumental.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvDQNEMFXF5
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNkWE0u2uMz
"Wow, that's awesome," said Zelo.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHasQ3rWWG
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGQsc8HsH0I
"You see how the managers just love you, Sam?" Mike asked.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0PNGArU23q
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ECUR6SAfD
"No, they don't," I emphasised. "If they don't like the instrumental, we aren't going to use it. So it has to be perfect."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKfVe8z0LX
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7C0p8qSPXG
"But for them to agree its because they know Yong-guk is an awesome producer," said Himchan. "No doubt it will be lit."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5lXwPhNvBj
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOTtRvTjwgS
"I agree with Himchan," said Zoey. "And besides, it's more of Sam's original, so they can't say no."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6yRES9Xwo
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡELsRtWEcwN
"Okay, we just need to focus on the instrumental and hopefully come up with the lyrics," I said.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0A7TCvUfbf
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwt0sFj5dyk
"Well, you better work on those fast," said Yong-nam, who was now wide awake, but still laying on the floor. "You don't have much time."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjXQzcjyzQQ
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOJJBdvgWw
"Okay," I said as I rubbed my hands together. "Toxins, get over here by the console, please."509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRseYFJsLji
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxStqyUBT13
"Okay," said Christine and Zoey as they both stood up from the couch and quickly came over.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNopIDSgna
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQjCcbaCEzV
"We will be here to help in anyway we can," said Young-jae.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhFfLufqs1A
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqy2pfNnVyl
"Thanks, guys," I said with a smile. I went over to sit back on my chair next to Yong-guk.509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkV5iMpbARh
509Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0B3vIfVScK
"Okay," said Yong-guk. "Let's continue where we ended, shall we?"
