The water felt like a 796Please respect copyright.PENANAcBFuLWDNox
safe haven and I didn't want to get out. For some reason, it felt so 796Please respect copyright.PENANAlCo6mtWTvm
warm and nice. I didn't want to go above the surface and face all the 796Please respect copyright.PENANAQTHxptxHYs
troubles out there. But I couldn't stay in water forever. That's 796Please respect copyright.PENANA6WqHlsvTld
obvious. I didn't want to die in here and sooner or later, I had to 796Please respect copyright.PENANAZ8mqa6r50a
breathe. 796Please respect copyright.PENANARWi4U1Mgdw
I pushed myself upwards 796Please respect copyright.PENANAMfHH9IyGOB
and my head stuck out of the water's surface. I took in a deep breath of796Please respect copyright.PENANAHThmqUU691
fresh air and I shook my head to shake the water out of my eyes. I 796Please respect copyright.PENANAOOLNbMYN6w
opened my eyes fully and as I looked around the pool, I swam to the 796Please respect copyright.PENANAtLpWk3ozfJ
edge.796Please respect copyright.PENANA8bPxX7BIVI
When I finally got myself out, I saw Hyo-rin, Seungri and TOP run towards me. Taeyang and Daesung also appeared.796Please respect copyright.PENANAAI7j5Qho5r
"Sam, are you okay?" Hyo-rin asked, when she got closer.796Please respect copyright.PENANAvHvbn4AEek
"I've never been better," I answered as I looked at myself.796Please respect copyright.PENANAfsNXsJyZPR
I looked ridiculously 796Please respect copyright.PENANAmhNEMYclId
wet, that's for sure. My clothes felt so heavy. I pulled out my phone 796Please respect copyright.PENANAJU3JW5hYVh
from the pocket and it was all wet and ruined. I sucked my teeth in 796Please respect copyright.PENANAEifha4fxFT
irritation. So much for having a cool fancy iPhone only to find it 796Please respect copyright.PENANAtFFxOQQijz
taking a dive with you into the water. I put my phone back in my wet 796Please respect copyright.PENANAofUO3ORCKx
pocket. My day couldn't get any better than this.796Please respect copyright.PENANAJj62kclZHb
I looked around me and 796Please respect copyright.PENANAFWD6V2tsyP
luckily, the little drama I had had with G-Dragon at the top of the 796Please respect copyright.PENANA2wKyxXLEO5
rocks, hadn't caught so many people's attention, but only to a few of 796Please respect copyright.PENANA7IqyAPI5Co
those who were in the same pool I had fallen in. That was a relief. The 796Please respect copyright.PENANApw1jtSHEii
last thing I wanted was to look embarrassed in front of the whole world.796Please respect copyright.PENANAzw9FbsQEMd
"You need a towel," said TOP. "You're soaking wet, and you need a change of clothes too."796Please respect copyright.PENANA1fgWIzlB9o
"No need," I said as I started to remove my wet sneakers and water poured out of them. "We've to go."796Please respect copyright.PENANACrN7CwPpdN
I heard Zoey and the 796Please respect copyright.PENANAgF5vO5z7zh
others' laughter and cheering on the other side of the pool. I looked on796Please respect copyright.PENANAUIkqRzQdlH
and I saw the others approach G-Dragon after he climbed down the rocks.796Please respect copyright.PENANAbfawfNKmtV
They surrounded and cheered for him as though he was a hero. 796Please respect copyright.PENANA9sjc4y1oAG
"Sam?" I heard Taeyang's796Please respect copyright.PENANAXSdGUUHRIt
voice as he held my shoulder. "You don't look okay at all. And you 796Please respect copyright.PENANApP1xCdKiA2
really need a change of clothes or else you're going to catch a cold."796Please respect copyright.PENANAwfDrA40Sls
"I already told you, I'm796Please respect copyright.PENANAMeaWvd6foP
fine," I said as I slowly brushed off Taeyang's hand from my shoulder. I796Please respect copyright.PENANAIuFUF6pEG3
didn't want to be rude, but I was so not in the mood for consolation 796Please respect copyright.PENANAy8mhSaxcLh
from anyone.796Please respect copyright.PENANA8vZ40MLZlT
I made my way towards GD796Please respect copyright.PENANADvlXxENasF
and the others, while they were chattering on with excitement over what796Please respect copyright.PENANAiDs0ZlenTu
had happened. Hyo-rin and the rest followed behind me. As the Toxins 796Please respect copyright.PENANA2VneuGSBbH
and G-Dragon saw me approach them, Zoey came forward.796Please respect copyright.PENANAjgEnPe8Byu
"Oh, man, Sam," said 796Please respect copyright.PENANA0lxt99ZxGG
Zoey, with a ridiculous smile on her face. "You should really see 796Please respect copyright.PENANACqATNYMi4S
yourself. Sorry for all that, but we had to add a little spice to the 796Please respect copyright.PENANAWX8XZgA57E
game. Hope you didn't mind."796Please respect copyright.PENANAyAik55bUwh
"Can we just go back to YG?" I asked, with no hint of emotion on my face. "I've had a long day."796Please respect copyright.PENANAwIvueyG0fP
"Go back to YG?" Zoey asked with a surprised look on her face. "I thought we were going back to the hotel."796Please respect copyright.PENANAYe2CPMGXPc
"I told you, our 796Please respect copyright.PENANAUch3TG3ykz
managers need us back there. And as usual, you never listen to me." I 796Please respect copyright.PENANAHt32CXcw4A
rolled my eyes as I soon remembered something. "Speaking of our 796Please respect copyright.PENANAeoRwtMWLeF
managers, Daesung, may I use your phone, please?" I looked over at 796Please respect copyright.PENANAyDaDA5XR1Y
Daesung.796Please respect copyright.PENANAZCnOMDGBUH
"Ya, sure," said Daesung, as he gave it to me.796Please respect copyright.PENANA1MqiylB8X0
I dialled Lee's number 796Please respect copyright.PENANAYrF7JWuTtB
and I placed the phone to my ear. The Toxins and G-Dragon looked on at 796Please respect copyright.PENANAYOBcjgtp4B
me, clueless. They were obviously wondering why I was making a call. 796Please respect copyright.PENANASEnIK7IBgx
They would know soon enough.796Please respect copyright.PENANAhuC7X9dhDP
"Hello?" came Lee's voice at the other end of the line.796Please respect copyright.PENANAl31AnX5owP
"Lee, it's Sam," I answered.796Please respect copyright.PENANAJ93YVO44rq
"Sam, thank goodness, you called. Did you find them?"796Please respect copyright.PENANAdHYmHjires
"Ya, I found them," I said, as I looked on at the culprits in front of me. "Do our managers know anything?"796Please respect copyright.PENANA7hT5Jimhtx
"No, not yet. But you 796Please respect copyright.PENANALMFLZEhPMf
better get back here quick. I can't keep them locked up much longer. And796Please respect copyright.PENANARE9ko6a3pR
the press have been waiting for you, so you better hurry."796Please respect copyright.PENANAAyA5yD9sID
"We'll be there in thirty minutes."796Please respect copyright.PENANApoR8m2AsNO
"Okay, I'll be waiting."796Please respect copyright.PENANAl1VHnAI4ny
I cut the call and gave Daesung his phone back.796Please respect copyright.PENANAUMMgONRf5a
"Wait, Sam, what's going on?" Daniel asked. "Why were you talking to Lee? Is something wrong?"796Please respect copyright.PENANAOVQlJ4Dgqf
"Everything is wrong," I answered, trying to keep my cool. "I'll tell you later. We better go now."796Please respect copyright.PENANA9mZ57YgZwS
"At least tell us what's going on," said Christine. 796Please respect copyright.PENANAojk4pfb2M1
"It's best we get to YG first," said Seungri. "We're wasting a lot of time here."796Please respect copyright.PENANAqJK8U2LGaL
"Come on. You heard Seungri, we don't have much time," I said.796Please respect copyright.PENANAZ03W6eVlf9
"But you better change your clothes first," said Zoey. "You know you easily catch a cold. At least get a towel to dry yourself."796Please respect copyright.PENANAlWSXflLPQX
I shook my head. I was 796Please respect copyright.PENANAqPpY3Abtke
really on the edge of losing my temper. But I quickly took in a deep 796Please respect copyright.PENANA9aWXCcgnIq
breath and started to walk away from the pool and the others in my bare 796Please respect copyright.PENANA7I3Z9i4WrZ
wet feet and carrying my wet sneakers.796Please respect copyright.PENANAAsYZvcPgfw
After walking a few feet796Please respect copyright.PENANAmcyneSUP3L
away, I looked behind me and the others just stared at me, with 796Please respect copyright.PENANAHSZoF0AP5v
surprised and confused looks on their faces. The last thing I wanted was796Please respect copyright.PENANAYdpP8HBaVB
for them to just stand there because they would end up grabbing other 796Please respect copyright.PENANAtKKd71f4aN
people's attention which I was highly trying to avoid.796Please respect copyright.PENANAtM01LVqq0y
"Aren't you coming or are you going to run off so that I go looking for you again?" I asked.796Please respect copyright.PENANAhTwBoEggqI
None of them answered as796Please respect copyright.PENANAM12Io4vNNU
they all started walking towards me and walked past heading for the 796Please respect copyright.PENANAg33hyyMq7o
exit. I stayed for a few minutes from where I stood as I watched them 796Please respect copyright.PENANAmlRnfI0o7P
go, except for TOP, who came to stand beside me.796Please respect copyright.PENANAgfdyNv4Gn3
"Don't say a word, please," I said as I turned to look at him.796Please respect copyright.PENANA0Igd3e58Mw
"I wasn't going to say 796Please respect copyright.PENANAUV5vgWwCC6
anything, apparently," said TOP. "I know you're angry and the last thing796Please respect copyright.PENANA9kkWy8V8Pr
you would want to hear from me is advice."796Please respect copyright.PENANAQt2Ots5P0H
I turned to look the other way as I now felt a little guilty. 796Please respect copyright.PENANAYH09SPXteQ
"Was I harsh on them?" I asked quietly.796Please respect copyright.PENANA85g95Uf9we
"To be honest, you did the best you could not to let your anger get the best of you."796Please respect copyright.PENANAPmthmJ7OnY
"I'm still upset, though."796Please respect copyright.PENANAr8QLthVfJx
"And that's normal. They will understand. You're human too."796Please respect copyright.PENANAQQoj8WbNL1
"Thanks, TOP." I said, trying to put up a smile. "Sorry for being harsh on you earlier."796Please respect copyright.PENANAu6Se1xKphA
"It's okay. You guys go on ahead. I'll go get changed and I'll catch up with you later."796Please respect copyright.PENANAIRcbT83DnQ
I gave TOP an assuring 796Please respect copyright.PENANAAGjy9TNyjq
nod and he gave me a pat on my shoulder and walked away. I was on my way796Please respect copyright.PENANAW0CaaWRvsa
again and I found myself outside the indoor water park. I saw the 796Please respect copyright.PENANACXNMtl7zTh
others ahead of me and I kept my distance. I was still soaking wet and I796Please respect copyright.PENANAOX5kNTg7cX
started to shiver. It was now in the afternoon but the sun still didn't796Please respect copyright.PENANAQteQZjrSzT
seem to warm me up as I expected it to. It was hot, yes, but I still 796Please respect copyright.PENANARRYdnsm4VX
felt cold because of my dripping clothes.796Please respect copyright.PENANAdHbfHrAfwd
We all found ourselves 796Please respect copyright.PENANAmFHwccBeM3
back at the back gate of the water park. I found G-Dragon and the Toxins796Please respect copyright.PENANAkkduHrWFyx
all settled in G-Dragon's car. Daesung, Seungri, Hyo-rin and Taeyang 796Please respect copyright.PENANAk9rJqAWOIb
were waiting for me. 796Please respect copyright.PENANA7W6s2vRxE8
"Hey, Sam, you don't 796Please respect copyright.PENANAezktLRfYHk
mind if I ride along with you, Daesung and Seungri, do you?" Hyo-rin 796Please respect copyright.PENANA23BrBydnFb
asked as she approached me to keep the others out of ear shot.796Please respect copyright.PENANA6Yo19PsTZg
"I'll ride with Tae, he shouldn't be alone," I said, giving Hyo-rin a small smile. "Don't worry about it."796Please respect copyright.PENANAsl4mvweR2h
Hyo-rin gave me a kind 796Please respect copyright.PENANAUKHQSYE43G
smile and I looked on as she settled in with Daesung and Seungri in the 796Please respect copyright.PENANAQe5S8XbR4q
car. G-Dragon's car took off first, then Daesung's. I continued to watch796Please respect copyright.PENANAmJRgjLCfoq
on as the two cars left the premises and all I did was stand in the 796Please respect copyright.PENANAm66DIkLgYP
sun, trying to take in the warmth, but still shivering like a leaf.796Please respect copyright.PENANALLT22bp4QM
I had my eyes closed 796Please respect copyright.PENANAPpg5lTEyPW
when I felt something warm on my shoulders. I opened my eyes and I found796Please respect copyright.PENANAPxtarkphPG
Taeyang wrap his warm coat around me.796Please respect copyright.PENANAhYqVjDtjws
"You're really shivering," said Taeyang. "Let's hope you don't get..."796Please respect copyright.PENANAauqYuJTzJQ
Before he could finish his sentence, I sneezed.796Please respect copyright.PENANAG25jBdqypg
"....a cold," said Taeyang, rolling his eyes at me. "Nice one, Sam. Now our managers will get pissed for sure."796Please respect copyright.PENANA5n6rWRo75b
"Don't worry, it's just a small sneeze," I said as I sniffed. "I'll be fine by tomorrow."796Please respect copyright.PENANAjkmraqW5Gr
"Let's hope so. Come on, we better get going."796Please respect copyright.PENANA3cCUG7hKfe
Taeyang led me to his 796Please respect copyright.PENANA58OzUkeexn
car and he helped me open the door to the passenger's seat. We were on 796Please respect copyright.PENANAMj5AxZYKf5
the road in no time, and as I sat in the car, I still felt cold that 796Please respect copyright.PENANAN5afZQC5Tn
Taeyang had to turn the heater on.796Please respect copyright.PENANAx2kr8AhnzG
In about thirty minutes,796Please respect copyright.PENANAnsx8aSeu4h
we were back in Seoul and back in the YG premises. I found the others 796Please respect copyright.PENANA6PGaKOdN2l
all waiting for us at the front entrance of the building. Taeyang and I 796Please respect copyright.PENANAvfFGIi7cPa
got out of the car and walked up to them. I led them in, still barefoot 796Please respect copyright.PENANAOr3ZPprEox
and surprisingly at the same time, Collins, Yang Hyun-suk and Lee 796Please respect copyright.PENANAZWszQuZjS1
appeared out of the elevator.796Please respect copyright.PENANArhi563X5fJ
"Where have you guys been?" Collins asked, as they approached us. "And why do you look so wet, Sam?"796Please respect copyright.PENANAtAhr7uEL8Y
"We went to Caribbean Bay," I answered.796Please respect copyright.PENANAcM4FqGET3c
Lee who stood behind 796Please respect copyright.PENANAUL3a3vKGOs
Collins gave me a funny startled look. She probably thought I was going 796Please respect copyright.PENANAY5p9bqUBeY
to make up some kind of a lie to cover up for the others. But I had 796Please respect copyright.PENANAtI9TuhOscw
other things in mind.796Please respect copyright.PENANAv3yUxvELVi
"Caribbean Bay?" Yang Hyun-suk looked surprised. "We had things to sort out here and you went to have fun?"796Please respect copyright.PENANAwnzqjPoaxm
Yang Hyun-suk sounded a 796Please respect copyright.PENANAyE62hDVCOc
little harsh and the rest of us were quiet. I could feel the atmosphere 796Please respect copyright.PENANA3EcqmMsWnt
behind me grow tense as no one said a word.796Please respect copyright.PENANAfDyE2Bzvl2
"Well, is anyone going to say anything?" Yang Hyun-suk asked.796Please respect copyright.PENANA5w5CAq45lD
"We didn't just go there to have fun," I said, with my head down. "If there's anyone to blame for all this, it's me."796Please respect copyright.PENANAZE0SVlkwzx
There was an awkward 796Please respect copyright.PENANAzXMj0mrKiH
silence as I felt all eyes on me. Their eyes felt like piercing needles,796Please respect copyright.PENANATQ0URTXjbZ
but I had to ignore the feeling and carry on.796Please respect copyright.PENANAUMaSuFXL5F
"What do you mean?" Collins asked.796Please respect copyright.PENANABF8s4RYr2u
"Well, I hear the press 796Please respect copyright.PENANANDPCdbj52I
are here," said Sam. "And I bet they are here over the video of G-Dragon796Please respect copyright.PENANABXZJX5HXeI
and I. I'll tell you everything from there."796Please respect copyright.PENANAfQdO0HwMrC
"That won't be 796Please respect copyright.PENANAmGNEvPk9TN
necessary," said Yang Hyun-suk. "We can do all of that tomorrow or some 796Please respect copyright.PENANACATROtdtI0
other day. You look all beat and I don't think it will be appropriate to796Please respect copyright.PENANAz8dqnqhkdm
go to the press looking all wet."796Please respect copyright.PENANAB4MpPfG3VN
I breathed out a sigh of796Please respect copyright.PENANAwHVkdVvm9g
relief. Things were simply going the way I thought they would. I just 796Please respect copyright.PENANA7LbeyGA2YV
hoped that what I was going to do next would work out too.796Please respect copyright.PENANAslHdMQYnKw
"In the meantime, you go796Please respect copyright.PENANAgaT6kwkJWj
to the hotel and get freshened up," said Collins. "We will talk later 796Please respect copyright.PENANADgIrrGpXO8
on in the evening and you will tell us all about it."796Please respect copyright.PENANAZG5AbaIVA3
I nodded my head in 796Please respect copyright.PENANAHXooWlkeg1
agreement. Well, that was a relief. I seriously needed a change of 796Please respect copyright.PENANAOalCCv89tn
clothes as I felt myself shiver vigorously.796Please respect copyright.PENANAqKUL6PKvjW
"Come, I'll drive you to the hotel," said Taeyang.796Please respect copyright.PENANA8IZOY3ZhNg
"Alright," I said 796Please respect copyright.PENANAYL0VNBtyN9
quietly, as I looked up at Lee. She seemed really frightened. The last 796Please respect copyright.PENANANn9M0M6uJ4
thing she wanted was for all of us to get into trouble and it seems like796Please respect copyright.PENANAZek4b5d84R
I was only making things worse.796Please respect copyright.PENANAkdhAme6h2I
Before I turned to leave796Please respect copyright.PENANAjoTQdBC4O0
with the rest of the group, I gave Lee a wink, assuring her that 796Please respect copyright.PENANAGtjSoh5TxK
everything was going to be alright and that she should trust me on this 796Please respect copyright.PENANA7pt8Lk4WQF
one.796Please respect copyright.PENANAGvKw24yqZv
***796Please respect copyright.PENANAS4G9gX76z2
I sat on the couch all 796Please respect copyright.PENANAsKaqEwic8g
wrapped up in a blanket, coughing and sniffing like crazy as I continued796Please respect copyright.PENANAAC6bhGbjtj
staring at the TV. I was watching a K-drama series, "Boys over flowers"796Please respect copyright.PENANA8jxoBKLSAX
and I was really enjoying it, despite being down with a cold. 796Please respect copyright.PENANAICg7PPNm9G
I had a box of paper 796Please respect copyright.PENANAkse1HX5dcb
tissues right beside me and a plastic containing the ones I had blown my796Please respect copyright.PENANAEoWa0fgrnL
nose on on my other side. Disgusting, I know, but hey, it was only a 796Please respect copyright.PENANATIm6TyADZz
cold and there was nothing I could do about it.796Please respect copyright.PENANATBvqAzKiBN
I continued watching the796Please respect copyright.PENANAIsivGxNUsS
series when the waiter came in to bring in my warm chicken soup and 796Please respect copyright.PENANA4QlfBiAND6
announced that Taeyang had come to see me.796Please respect copyright.PENANALeUUWLsUri
"Hey, how are you doing?" Taeyang asked after the waiter gave me the soup and left while he came in.796Please respect copyright.PENANA44OJ5mj2Ia
"Never better," I said, 796Please respect copyright.PENANAUXFMcNkM93
sounding funny with a blocked nose. "Take a seat, please. Not too close 796Please respect copyright.PENANA9BbeSwCvHh
to me though, I don't want you to catch my cold."796Please respect copyright.PENANAHftHUBwjbS
"I wasn't even going to try," Taeyang took a couch right next to mine, but far away from me as possible.796Please respect copyright.PENANA4InbS9SrF0
"So, watching k-drama, huh?" Taeyang asked as he looked at the flat screen TV on the wall.796Please respect copyright.PENANAxTVuPr1c3Z
"Ya, I'm actually enjoying it," I said as I put in a spoonful of chicken soup in my mouth. Mmm, it was so tasty.796Please respect copyright.PENANAuOlKrsyzOK
"And the others?" 796Please respect copyright.PENANAbumiYSNnbY
When Taeyang meant the "others," I knew he meant The Toxins. I just rolled my eyes and continued staring at the TV.796Please respect copyright.PENANA6HQ36xLbLO
"As usual, they went for practise two hours ago," I answered, not sounding like I cared.796Please respect copyright.PENANAk1hBU21vP4
"Are you still mad at them?" Taeyang asked.796Please respect copyright.PENANAi07n5CDM9Z
I got the remote and paused the TV. I couldn't catch up with reading the subtitles and Taeyang's question just confused me.796Please respect copyright.PENANAsu5212PQB5
"I don't know," I said, staring at my soup.796Please respect copyright.PENANAWevUXOvGdW
"You don't know or you are?"796Please respect copyright.PENANAF6OwvLfN6R
I shrugged my shoulders. To be completely honest, I am still mad, but then again, I felt like I wasn't and that felt confusing.796Please respect copyright.PENANAZCzPXHw2GW
"I don't know, Tae," I 796Please respect copyright.PENANABlQGIn3Lsl
answered. "I'm still upset with all of them, but another part of me is 796Please respect copyright.PENANABs8J393tGW
telling me that I won't stay that way for long and I should just try to 796Please respect copyright.PENANAC4TwvqphKM
forget all that happened yesterday."796Please respect copyright.PENANAVXYT6AJbSx
"Ya, I understand. They 796Please respect copyright.PENANAid6r3B56KT
never listened to you and you had to carry on with their game. And in 796Please respect copyright.PENANAXJRz7RRdsA
the end, you take the blame because you knew how angry our managers were796Please respect copyright.PENANAUC4gNvT4w5
going to get."796Please respect copyright.PENANAV7Dbt6j8Tw
I looked on at Taeyang 796Please respect copyright.PENANADaYvXMWeG1
as I sniffed. He was right. Yesterday was tough, and coming up with a 796Please respect copyright.PENANAPbfATifxgq
plan to help the others get out of trouble was even tougher when you 796Please respect copyright.PENANAf2lfPsdlXs
know you weren't only dealing with Collins, but also with Yang Hyun-suk 796Please respect copyright.PENANAjqH7tKgEFp
who was as tough as nails.796Please respect copyright.PENANA02XWAJJqpb
Last night, I took the 796Please respect copyright.PENANAvb9Y3E2dFu
blame and told our two managers that I was the one who decided that we 796Please respect copyright.PENANAEieEue5iZY
should all go out and the others had nothing to do with it. I told them 796Please respect copyright.PENANA0eeBBu2T5C
that the others had insisted on working on the song, but I was the one 796Please respect copyright.PENANAI5aEYkFesb
who objected and made everyone do whatever they wanted. 796Please respect copyright.PENANAsS7mZvUPEF
Apparently, the managers796Please respect copyright.PENANAbfas71YAGr
weren't that mad at me at all. If I hadn't lied on their part, they 796Please respect copyright.PENANA39Dez5OJvH
would've been way mad at the others instead. They were glad I had bought796Please respect copyright.PENANAMPGUYhujzx
these guys back on time without creating much of a scene on social 796Please respect copyright.PENANAuriG8yo2Uf
media. Luckily, only a few people had taken pictures of us. Most people 796Please respect copyright.PENANASeJMFRsaDD
on social media were even surprised that BigBang and The Toxins were at 796Please respect copyright.PENANApmw9nzBuXn
Caribbean Bay. Well, at least my plan worked out. What I was truly 796Please respect copyright.PENANAJaAlKeDPEP
avoiding, was grabbing too much attention from our fans, the paparazzi 796Please respect copyright.PENANA4kDRFHXSQd
and the reporters.796Please respect copyright.PENANAQkYhEilXna
After my confrontation 796Please respect copyright.PENANAzr6yQ8uMfx
with our managers, I went straight to bed without talking to anyone and I796Please respect copyright.PENANAEyMFy5VAsD
didn't have supper. One, I was totally beat from all that had happened,796Please respect copyright.PENANAbmmZ130sb4
and two, I just didn't feel like talking to anyone.796Please respect copyright.PENANA33xuIWCMgA
"Huh, I guess am still upset," I said, as I took in another spoon of soup in my mouth. "Especially after what GD did to me."796Please respect copyright.PENANAWjhg1YkH5Z
"Ya, what happened was kind of dramatic," said Taeyang.796Please respect copyright.PENANAJWRE76eIZF
"You saw that?" I looked surprised. "I thought you came later on when I fell into the pool."796Please respect copyright.PENANA4N6vJmn5Kx
"No, Daesung and I arrived when you got to the top."796Please respect copyright.PENANAVYriI1nUpt
"Oh," I sniffed and coughed. "Ya, it was kind of dramatic."796Please respect copyright.PENANAqW5Ac0ZRbK
"Have you tried talking to GD?"796Please respect copyright.PENANAHHx3hH48IT
"To be honest, I haven't796Please respect copyright.PENANATUO30oEQAe
even tried. I don't even want to see nor talk to him. I would probably 796Please respect copyright.PENANAwzPhjjZgLC
slap him in the face if I see him."796Please respect copyright.PENANAtmRdEeXZdZ
"I don't doubt that."796Please respect copyright.PENANAPpeVcl5w3c
"And thank goodness my 796Please respect copyright.PENANA70tfpqNJbH
new phone isn't coming in until late in the afternoon. I wouldn't like 796Please respect copyright.PENANA8Rrlm05181
anyone calling me trying to tell me how sorry they are. Right now, all I796Please respect copyright.PENANAaFegnLQYes
want to do is watch some TV."796Please respect copyright.PENANAEovSnU0i90
I quickly drank my 796Please respect copyright.PENANAvq80iyFoU2
chicken soup from the bowl. And my goodness, the cooks here really knew 796Please respect copyright.PENANAFRCaHvUw57
how to make lovely soup. I would probably order for it again if I had 796Please respect copyright.PENANAHZjEF4NIu4
to.796Please respect copyright.PENANAbnVXM8jMPj
"So, how are you and Hyo-rin?" I asked, after putting the bowl aside.796Please respect copyright.PENANAAbtDGIowQ5
"Still not talking to each other," Taeyang amswered as he leaned back on the couch and stared at the ceiling.796Please respect copyright.PENANABG8ljo2j75
"Looks like I'm not the only one not talking to people, aren't I?"796Please respect copyright.PENANABJO3kOh5eb
"Nope."796Please respect copyright.PENANATm4WnLT7LY
I stared at Taeyang as he continued to look at the ceiling as I thought of what to say or ask next.796Please respect copyright.PENANA8OdHcoc87p
"What really happened to you two yesterday?" I asked.796Please respect copyright.PENANAsPYFNjJsKa
Taeyang didn't say 796Please respect copyright.PENANArmVtcrdSFm
anything at first. Then he breathed out heavily and said, "what happened796Please respect copyright.PENANAfaGOLWDPbq
to us happens to every other couple, Sam."796Please respect copyright.PENANAZZZWeEOxqQ
"I know you fought or 796Please respect copyright.PENANAarTIF9rZMT
probably had an argument. I just want to know what it was all about. 796Please respect copyright.PENANA99vIvmknpg
That's if you're willing to tell me. I won't push you if you don't."796Please respect copyright.PENANAhvrfLcIpZa
I noticed Taeyang smile 796Please respect copyright.PENANAOaVJ4yc3zr
while he continued to look upwards. It was probably over what I had 796Please respect copyright.PENANAbjTHM2qisK
said. I was not one who liked to push people over talking about their 796Please respect copyright.PENANA1jTGR62f11
problems. I wasn't like Zoey who always got away with such things.796Please respect copyright.PENANAld5l1j4uyG
"Aren't you going to say anything?" I asked Taeyang who continued to smile.796Please respect copyright.PENANAp3l5gywKSg
"I'm just wondering why some things you wish for never come to pass."796Please respect copyright.PENANAcgaNZ8Ee2M
I raised an eyebrow this time around. Was he diverting the question or was he talking in riddles now?796Please respect copyright.PENANA6b6FWSUwRX
"I thought I was the only one who is sick today," I said rolling eyes.796Please respect copyright.PENANA5cMV7YdL7k
"Don't mind what I just said," said Taeyang, as he looked at me. "It's nothing."796Please respect copyright.PENANAvArgobc69w
"Mmm, figured. If you don't want to say anything, it's fine by.."796Please respect copyright.PENANACKDjeeiN2E
Before I could finish my796Please respect copyright.PENANAf76y3ayjsl
sentence, I sneezed. Like, really loud. There was silence at first 796Please respect copyright.PENANA68QAeKVAXb
until Taeyang started laughing at me while I blew my nose with a tissue.796Please respect copyright.PENANAjYk81dcZnl
"It's not funny, Tae," I said furrowing my eyebrows and threw the used up tissue in the plastic.796Please respect copyright.PENANAF2j818nPW4
"You sound funny when you sneeze. That's why I laughed," said Taeyang, giving me his eye smile.796Please respect copyright.PENANAdpT5QLqOld
"Well, it's good I made you laugh then. Just like me, you haven't been smiling at all since yesterday."796Please respect copyright.PENANAUFfguoZcqn
"Looks like the two of us really have a lot in common when things don't go our way."796Please respect copyright.PENANA8321kPTdio
"Yep, cheers to that." 796Please respect copyright.PENANAztj4tYZ2mq
"So, have you thought of any lyrics for the song yet?" Taeyang asked.796Please respect copyright.PENANAFho118Q3WG
I slapped my face. I had completely forgot about the song since I was running up and down the whole of yesterday.796Please respect copyright.PENANAlGOPk8zsAg
"I completely forgot," I said, as I sniffed. "Weren't you guys supposed to work on it today?"796Please respect copyright.PENANADvXdNHGhRm
"We can't work on it without you," said Taeyang. "You and G-Dragon decided that the both of you would work on it together."796Please respect copyright.PENANAk3hWYrue8D
"Don't mention his name because I feel like breaking something."796Please respect copyright.PENANAaGsAMHINQj
"Wow, that sounds personal."796Please respect copyright.PENANAsYrMM49g1y
"Ya," I nodded my head. "It really is."796Please respect copyright.PENANAltRZc0zrFo
"Then how are the two of you going to work on the lyrics if you're still angry at him?"796Please respect copyright.PENANA7fRdHM1uIu
"I think I've a better 796Please respect copyright.PENANASeHuwqPb3X
idea. Let's all just work on the song together. I may be the songwriter 796Please respect copyright.PENANAoHcJtGFkwD
in my group, but I always give a chance for others to bring in their 796Please respect copyright.PENANAZ6eFuaQtr6
lyrics. It's better that way."796Please respect copyright.PENANAGB1pk5cG4F
"That's not a bad idea. Aren't you going to tell GD about it?"796Please respect copyright.PENANAyzh7IYncgm
"Uh, no. Until I'm no longer mad at him, you will have to act as my middle man."796Please respect copyright.PENANAAwam0wAZYe
"Me? Your middle man?" Taeyang burst into a fit of laughter. "That's going to be classic."796Please respect copyright.PENANAito5LKTLZV
"You should be honoured. Most people would die just to be my middle man."796Please respect copyright.PENANAEBaXPc5XyK
"I wouldn't. FYI, I'm a pop star just like you and people would die just the same."796Please respect copyright.PENANAHVk47r6byV
"Haha, good point."796Please respect copyright.PENANA2MJ8XqE4Ge
Taeyang and I continued 796Please respect copyright.PENANAhprcr9BnHm
to talk for a good thirty minutes and it was so much fun. I was glad he 796Please respect copyright.PENANArrtdkHsuTI
came to see me because life tends to be boring sometimes when you're 796Please respect copyright.PENANA8tbAeNUKuJ
alone. Apart from talking about the events that took place yesterday, we796Please respect copyright.PENANAKTK3fC72Ra
talked about other fun things concerning our personal lives. Mostly 796Please respect copyright.PENANABivkGiqxM4
focusing on the funny things that goes on whenever we were with your 796Please respect copyright.PENANAgfVhutJPYB
group members. I mostly talked about Zoey, since she always creates 796Please respect copyright.PENANAZL9FMHL1Az
drama in my life, while Taeyang talked about Seungri, who always got 796Please respect copyright.PENANAECDmCuUUPs
into trouble since he was the "maknae" (막내) (youngest) in the group.796Please respect copyright.PENANA8hwrsghUUY
While the two of us were796Please respect copyright.PENANA9bR6QuIot3
laughing after Taeyang finished telling me a funny story about Seungri,796Please respect copyright.PENANAK1kORFUKZS
I received a phone call from the hotel land line. 796Please respect copyright.PENANAKE26PSi5n3
I quickly went over to 796Please respect copyright.PENANAzAjTMtYmer
the phone, trying to calm myself after laughing so much. Luckily, it was796Please respect copyright.PENANAZlQiMajGBy
just the receptionist downstairs, informing me that Seungri and Daesung796Please respect copyright.PENANA1uCMrubk15
had come to visit. I told the receptionist to tell them that they could796Please respect copyright.PENANACaZn08870m
come up and I put the receiver down.796Please respect copyright.PENANA06MghVmbKq
"Speaking of the devil," I said as I passed Taeyang, going back to my seat, "he is here with Daesung."796Please respect copyright.PENANAw9RiJVJMbF
"Seungri is here? Well, that's a surprise."796Please respect copyright.PENANArfmNLCOUZN
"I'm not," I said shrugging my shoulders. "He's obviously here to check up on me, since he calls me his panda."796Please respect copyright.PENANAUc3eIvrMlg
"Trust me, you're one of his many pandas," said Taeyang, as he smiled.796Please respect copyright.PENANAJlxNcwiHQq
"Shut up, Tae!" I threw a pillow at him and he blocked it as he raised his arm.796Please respect copyright.PENANA2iFjeTNg0d
"Eww, that pillow 796Please respect copyright.PENANAttoYulJJUX
probably has your germs on it," said Taeyang, as he disgustingly looked 796Please respect copyright.PENANAfqrtOCKyjb
at the pillow I had thrown at him on the floor.796Please respect copyright.PENANABN8Aw4TNDA
"You're welcome," I said with a devious smile on my face.796Please respect copyright.PENANATdnpt5oKKQ
A few seconds later, we 796Please respect copyright.PENANAccLOoCrmDB
heard the sound of the elevator then Seungri and Daesung appeared into 796Please respect copyright.PENANAY8oI7YasMd
the lounge. Seungri was holding a huge stuffed panda and Daesung was 796Please respect copyright.PENANAc1vTx7dBUt
holding a box of chocolates.796Please respect copyright.PENANA9PU2173M26
"Awww, is that for me?" I asked as I turned on the couch to face them.796Please respect copyright.PENANA47HnwzvBpj
"Ah, no, the panda is a 796Please respect copyright.PENANAESUjmtAeBe
very good friend of mine and just came along to see the famous B.K who 796Please respect copyright.PENANAxKdXGkzkeA
is sick," said Seungri. Daesung and Taeyang burst out laughing at the 796Please respect copyright.PENANAFmcOIJhBxm
same time.796Please respect copyright.PENANA5yhAz6qMH0
"Very funny, Seungri," I said, as I frowned at him. "Give him to me, I want to hug him."796Please respect copyright.PENANAn24RSTlkBJ
"And give him your cold? No ways," said Seungri, hugging and holding onto the panda.796Please respect copyright.PENANAsCWgtr4waR
"Do you really want me to come over there and fight for it?"796Please respect copyright.PENANAzEpltvKMZS
"I would give the lady the panda if I were you, Seungri," said Taeyang. "You wouldn't want to see her nasty side."796Please respect copyright.PENANAY8YtQFsmBM
"Hey, I don't have a nasty side," I said, as I looked at Taeyang.796Please respect copyright.PENANARGhOiS10ld
"Everybody has one," said Taeyang, shrugging his shoulders.796Please respect copyright.PENANAg9RpHc2Egr
"Never mind that," said Daesung, "just give her the panda, Seungri."796Please respect copyright.PENANAPPtOx7hk8A
"Really? But he'll be scared without me," said Seungri, still holding onto the panda.796Please respect copyright.PENANA8JipzaUAYH
"For goodness sake, I 796Please respect copyright.PENANARlsTVxDcnz
know the panda is mine," I said. "And besides, we ladies are good with 796Please respect copyright.PENANAmc3hb8zqds
handling cute and cuddly stuff. Mr Panda won't ever feel lonely or 796Please respect copyright.PENANA81xhshLV2V
scared with me."796Please respect copyright.PENANAam3ZXv9VPY
"Ya, I know he won't," said Seungri with a smile as he walked over to me and gave me the panda.796Please respect copyright.PENANAusR2IbLMWN
I took the panda in my 796Please respect copyright.PENANAa3jp1RF1da
arms and I hugged and cuddled it as though I was a little girl who just 796Please respect copyright.PENANA1gLuRpkjyR
got her doll for the first time. It was so soft and fuzzy that for a 796Please respect copyright.PENANApVywJYYXsz
moment, it felt like a warm pillow I could sleep on. The new smell of 796Please respect copyright.PENANAUHuTP5vbfn
the panda triggered my nose though, and I sneezed so loud, yet again.796Please respect copyright.PENANAeUpAWFMBqM
"My goodness, Mr Panda would need a doctor," said Seungri. "You're gonna get him sick."796Please respect copyright.PENANAYvxtkGo6OQ
"He's officially mine now," I said as I sniffed. "We're going to be the best of besties."796Please respect copyright.PENANAzjV1s1L1UN
"Whatever, just take good care of him for me, okay?"796Please respect copyright.PENANANgatQnGrNs
"I will," I said with a smile as I cuddled the panda in my arms.796Please respect copyright.PENANASWOB3WKgrC
"I got you some chocolates," said Daesung, as he handed over the box of chocolates to me. "Every girl's favourite treat."796Please respect copyright.PENANALG8BXE5YON
"Aww, thanks Daesung," I796Please respect copyright.PENANAHwVEYtnwEK
said as I smiled at him and I felt myself blush when I remembered what 796Please respect copyright.PENANA1v1REmHn6L
happened between him and I yesterday at the park. "That's so sweet of 796Please respect copyright.PENANAvuGZC7gsKe
you. See, Seungri, you should be a little bit more like him."796Please respect copyright.PENANAAEVISKp6L0
"What did I do?" Seungri asked looking surprised. "I bought you a panda."796Please respect copyright.PENANAHZ19lMKnJl
"Never mind, come take a seat, please," I said. "It's good you two came to see me."796Please respect copyright.PENANASsh05eUgol
"Are you feeling any better?" Daesung asked as he and Seungri sat on the other couch opposite Taeyang.796Please respect copyright.PENANA8ty86GiuFh
"Well, I'm not really feeling that sick," I said, as I sniffed. "I'll be fine tomorrow, you'll see."796Please respect copyright.PENANA0HmDdSwcYJ
"I doubt that," Taeyang blurted out.796Please respect copyright.PENANAbnLjp7pPrG
"Ah, put a sock in it, Tae!" I said angrily. "You really know how to make me feel bad."796Please respect copyright.PENANAbwnsONcEEQ
"Ya, I do."796Please respect copyright.PENANA3AtY4mJJhv
While the four of us 796Please respect copyright.PENANA5vOXQ6jeh7
were chatting and Seungri kept on pulling funny faces at me every now 796Please respect copyright.PENANAAhIV7Q3QQc
and then, just to make me laugh, The Toxins arrived. At first I didn't 796Please respect copyright.PENANAjdME8XcSpb
notice since I was laughing so much, until Daesung looked behind me and 796Please respect copyright.PENANAkKunJURjqG
said:796Please respect copyright.PENANA3Ffxa62wsx
"Hey, Zoey." 796Please respect copyright.PENANAX3ynAFG74B
I stopped laughing automatically and I turned to looked behind me. Zoey was standing in the passage with her training bag. 796Please respect copyright.PENANAoVyDsuxHaH
"Hey," Zoey replied. "I was wondering why there was laughter when we came in."796Please respect copyright.PENANAj3u9m9GBEm
"We came to see how Sam was doing," said Taeyang.796Please respect copyright.PENANAuAuMnclBpF
"It's good you came to 796Please respect copyright.PENANAgnAU0Qqv9J
keep her company while we were gone." Zoey turned to look at me, but I 796Please respect copyright.PENANAgclUgEDnrl
quickly turned away, putting myself back in my usual position on the 796Please respect copyright.PENANAYsWJyImtMc
couch.796Please respect copyright.PENANAQDPlSJ4IVd
"Hey, what's with all the laughter?" came Mike's voice. "Oh, you guys are here, that's great!"796Please respect copyright.PENANA4nqFayO0fW
"Who's here?" Christine asked, also joining the others. "Hey, guys!"796Please respect copyright.PENANA7RrpjJpiMB
"Hey, how was practise?" Daesung asked.796Please respect copyright.PENANAzFUHoXyXw1
"Tiring as usual," I heard Daniel reply. 796Please respect copyright.PENANAukXyhmRshJ
"We will just put our stuff away and join you in a second," said Zoey.796Please respect copyright.PENANAg692ds8qGG
"Ya, please do, it will be so much fun," said Seungri.796Please respect copyright.PENANAPjksuDs9KE
I tugged at my panda's 796Please respect copyright.PENANA5CeWNOAydU
ear absentmindley as I felt Taeyang's eyes on me. I looked at him and it796Please respect copyright.PENANArnyaY95q2F
was obvious he could read my mind. I was still not in a mood to talking796Please respect copyright.PENANAJq0VdI0mkS
to the other Toxins, and I so much as wanted as to leave the room.796Please respect copyright.PENANAQstFLndAa5
The Toxins came back to 796Please respect copyright.PENANA5QrHgFKsWq
the lounge area. Zoey sat next to me and I moved away from her as I held796Please respect copyright.PENANAQLVD4SSvYi
my panda like it was the only thing that ever mattered to me. Christine796Please respect copyright.PENANAotvEPnSuMQ
went to join Seungri and Daesung, while Mike and Daniel joined Taeyang.796Please respect copyright.PENANAZZjt6eWkIr
For a moment, no one 796Please respect copyright.PENANA5FBfL2izTP
said a word to each other. There was silence. As for me, I kept on 796Please respect copyright.PENANAXyXQ6dg8Og
tugging at the panda's ear still not looking at Zoey.796Please respect copyright.PENANAGSWRgafTZL
"Oh, Sam, you've a panda," said Daniel, breaking the silence.796Please respect copyright.PENANAqZ82DChts1
"Ah huh," I replied dully. 796Please respect copyright.PENANAFVNhQjnneX
"I got it for her," said Seungri, with a smile.796Please respect copyright.PENANAYJsqvJshDf
"Aww, it's so cute," said Christine. "You should get me one just like that someday."796Please respect copyright.PENANABdED5oe2oW
I stared up at the 796Please respect copyright.PENANAzDU4XLBvWY
ceiling and then at the panda. I got the box of chocolates that were 796Please respect copyright.PENANAyApLNCRJm8
next to me, opened it and put a piece of chocolate in my mouth.796Please respect copyright.PENANAEr6OCSat01
"And she also has chocolates too," said Zoey. "I also want some."796Please respect copyright.PENANAnsNeMZCz2s
When Zoey tried to reach796Please respect copyright.PENANA5Lsum6dyWt
out for chocolates, I lifted the box and took it to my other side to 796Please respect copyright.PENANALDDmziSHNJ
prevent her from getting any. I looked at her as I furrowed my eyebrows.796Please respect copyright.PENANA5Wn8Bx4CFX
"Sorry, I should have asked," said Zoey.796Please respect copyright.PENANAESO9qzRyu8
"Ya, you should have!" I snapped at her.796Please respect copyright.PENANAORkNv0pgjK
Zoey looked hurt with 796Please respect copyright.PENANABVGzY5AY9l
the way I responded to her, but at the moment, it didn't even matter. I 796Please respect copyright.PENANA5CVEgSp6DV
turned to face the other way sucking at the chocolate in my mouth.796Please respect copyright.PENANACgIZXzIN3d
"Are you still mad at us?" Zoey asked.796Please respect copyright.PENANAcp5GNqkTR3
I didn't answer as I put796Please respect copyright.PENANAvtYII2qYIx
another piece of chocolate in mouth. My silence was an obvious answer. I796Please respect copyright.PENANAvKJkmqO7wz
was still mad, especially at Zoey.796Please respect copyright.PENANA3sEpgjAJMg
"I know it's a little 796Please respect copyright.PENANA390AMlm0ls
late to say this," started Zoey. "But we're really sorry for what 796Please respect copyright.PENANAz2t8DMyecW
happened yesterday. Yes, we didn't listen to you as always and we're 796Please respect copyright.PENANA4WUb8zDKtD
sorry for that too. You even took the blame for us. And I know it 796Please respect copyright.PENANATpDFZnAKaF
doesn't look like we appreciate what you do for us, but we really do. 796Please respect copyright.PENANAz1ZbleuqQE
You've saved our necks a number of times before from Collins, but this 796Please respect copyright.PENANAZlTv4LD7RU
time you had to deal with Yang Hyun-suk too."796Please respect copyright.PENANAiMkr75kfZo
I stared at the ceiling as I sucked at the chocolate in my mouth as though I wasn't listening.796Please respect copyright.PENANAR0k06Aj6ot
"I don't like it when 796Please respect copyright.PENANAaAoFQxrnIJ
you're not talking to me," Zoey continued. "And last night when you 796Please respect copyright.PENANAIcvBfcYVWJ
didn't say a word, I knew you were going to give us the silent 796Please respect copyright.PENANAUgfwvZHhbA
treatment. You know you're my best friend and my only source of 796Please respect copyright.PENANAn9kmCg0EBE
happiness everyday. You know I'm not myself without you. I'm really 796Please respect copyright.PENANApGegHKSwSh
sorry, Sam."796Please respect copyright.PENANA3WOJxKhAQX
"We're all sorry, Sam," said Daniel. "I know you're hurt real bad because of our silly actions yesterday."796Please respect copyright.PENANAupTFg8IN1R
"I'm sorry too," said 796Please respect copyright.PENANADkglOTsB40
Mike. "I should have acted like the responsible one, but we all know 796Please respect copyright.PENANA35EtdRuKSX
that's not the case. You really saved us yesterday and all we want is 796Please respect copyright.PENANAJfQkxYXnjk
for you to talk to us again."796Please respect copyright.PENANAkTZBWCunD3
"I'm also sorry, Sam," 796Please respect copyright.PENANA3aXkb2YckT
said Christine. "We might say 'we won't do it again,' but we keep on 796Please respect copyright.PENANAK7YvWb6ND4
doing the same thing. We can't do anything without you. You're our 796Please respect copyright.PENANAL5WMsgyAgX
leader."796Please respect copyright.PENANAE10qeTmmbI
I still didn't say a 796Please respect copyright.PENANAdfMvt5x5kG
word to them as I continued to stare upwards. I knew it would come to 796Please respect copyright.PENANAv8kvIkR812
this, them saying that they were sorry. My hatred for them wasn't going 796Please respect copyright.PENANAMoRTDqrqWg
to last forever and I knew that very well. They were family and I loved 796Please respect copyright.PENANAQVcjjFD1n4
them despite the awful things they put me through.796Please respect copyright.PENANAkDllW02Hl1
"Aren't you going to say something, Sam?" Taeyang asked. 796Please respect copyright.PENANA2lpAIl3IQF
"And what should I say?" I asked. "They know completely well that I can't stay mad at them forever, so...."796Please respect copyright.PENANATQj8IY6Am8
"Wait, you're not mad any more?" Zoey asked, with a little hint of excitement in her voice.796Please respect copyright.PENANA8dP1XOlj0f
I sighed deeply and I turned to face Zoey. And I each gave the other Toxins a look as well.796Please respect copyright.PENANASllzO7Jysz
"I'm mad and pretty much796Please respect copyright.PENANAGxqtIlNI1L
angry with all of you," I said. "But it's obvious I can never stay mad 796Please respect copyright.PENANAqXWNI9hJcu
at you forever. So, yes, I forgive you."796Please respect copyright.PENANASYQtVsxvk3
"Seriously, you mean it?" Daniel asked.796Please respect copyright.PENANAiDCCVob8in
I sniffed and said, "ya, I mean it."796Please respect copyright.PENANARNjTm2aS0a
"Aww, I love you, Sam!" Zoey exclaimed as she tried to come close to hug me.796Please respect copyright.PENANArGXK8VzCCZ
"Whoa! Back up!" I said 796Please respect copyright.PENANA7oNOMsK861
with my hands raised to stop her from getting any closer to me. "I've a 796Please respect copyright.PENANAKToyvVN7JK
cold. Just because I forgive you, doesn't mean you can hug me."796Please respect copyright.PENANA697GrWQzrd
"Ah, you! Always acting 796Please respect copyright.PENANAv6yEOisZn5
like you don't want a hug. Come here!" Zoey wrapped her arms around me 796Please respect copyright.PENANAttOgJgJPaV
and hugged me. "Your cold isn't that contagious and I don't care if I 796Please respect copyright.PENANAoxagIWb3Fa
catch it anyway."796Please respect copyright.PENANApaKKlgTlZt
Christine, Daniel and 796Please respect copyright.PENANAuf6KrwTTUp
Mike also came over and we were all hugging each other on the couch. 796Please respect copyright.PENANA9Yyr7LyL9E
Even the panda got caught up in the hug. It was kind of nice and I 796Please respect copyright.PENANAxqjIYexha7
smiled. I completely wasn't mad at them any more, that's for certain.796Please respect copyright.PENANADMzleAib7w
"Aww, let me take a pic of this beautiful moment," said Deasung as he pulled out his phone and took a photo.796Please respect copyright.PENANA1bVf1eQBlC
"I'm glad you guys finally resolved things ," said Taeyang.796Please respect copyright.PENANAy0Rdq9J73v
"Ya, I'm glad we did," I said, as I felt my nose twitch. "Can you guys please stop hugging me, I'm about to...."796Please respect copyright.PENANAP13pvyIncb
I sneezed and the other Toxins quickly withdrew their arms around me and looked on as though I was contagious.796Please respect copyright.PENANAjRrzfJEFQg
"Excuse me," I said as I got a tissue and blew my nose. "I just can't help myself."796Please respect copyright.PENANAB3qONnMZWF
"Don't worry, you won't 796Please respect copyright.PENANAqKciOhdttE
help yourself laughing once you see this pic," said Daesung, as he 796Please respect copyright.PENANAlj8Q0J28tf
looked at his phone with a smile on his face.796Please respect copyright.PENANAJwkryfBMwl
"Please don't tell me you captured me sneezing," I rolled my eyes when I obviously knew the answer.796Please respect copyright.PENANAJchcCHaP21
"Ya, he did," said Seungri, with a smirk on his face.796Please respect copyright.PENANAf4xpOJDRsf
"Never mind. It's almost lunch time and I'm starving," I said. "What can we order for lunch?"796Please respect copyright.PENANAz85ltEuOA8
"I'm glad you asked," said Zoey. "You just sit back and relax, my hungry kitty. We already have lunch covered."796Please respect copyright.PENANAH90D47lMg5
"What do you mean?" I asked, looking at Zoey with an eyebrow raised.796Please respect copyright.PENANAsGX9ddpq6Q
"We thought of having a special lunch just for you since you were so mad at us," said Daniel. 796Please respect copyright.PENANAIl9rICbXVQ
"Well, that's interesting," said Taeyang. "Weren't you going to invite us as well?"796Please respect copyright.PENANAHbLr4EA5oP
"Well, ya, but surprisingly you brought yourselves here," said Zoey. "We were about to call you as soon as we arrived."796Please respect copyright.PENANAJzbZDSYDfk
"We already called the others so, no need," said Mike.796Please respect copyright.PENANAZWt1ncoGSV
At that moment, I had 796Please respect copyright.PENANAUcBjAI99nE
put in another piece of chocolate in my mouth and I almost choked on it.796Please respect copyright.PENANAK5cihlalAo
Mike who was the closet to me patted my back.796Please respect copyright.PENANAB6obqjJiwj
"Hey, are you okay?" he asked.796Please respect copyright.PENANAkQAxHiNJig
"I'm fine, I guess," I said, as I held my throat.796Please respect copyright.PENANAbqK3ATdwol
"This is what happens when you don't share chocolates," said Zoey. "Here, I'll help you."796Please respect copyright.PENANAkvrZnp01E3
Zoey got the box of 796Please respect copyright.PENANAxwGnhODpks
chocolates and Christine went to sit next to Zoey to eat them while I 796Please respect copyright.PENANApNfuo6sWZk
continued rubbing my throat, deep in thought.796Please respect copyright.PENANA69SswyiSz6
"Can you excuse me for a second?" I asked as I got up from the couch with my panda and left the room.796Please respect copyright.PENANAwQuUUDsDw0
I was in the passage as I796Please respect copyright.PENANAjVEy0GCjvA
leaned on the wall, close to the door of the room Zoey and I were 796Please respect copyright.PENANAPjrdWcUiuc
sleeping in. I held the panda in my arms and hugged it tightly. I sighed796Please respect copyright.PENANAiJM6ypmq4b
in what felt like sadness.796Please respect copyright.PENANAicBb7WemNd
"You aren't okay, again, aren't you?" came Taeyang's voice behind me.796Please respect copyright.PENANAmG9liIQMb6
I sniffed and without facing him said, "you already know. I don't have to say anything."796Please respect copyright.PENANAhGSb8QGl2L
I heard his footsteps 796Please respect copyright.PENANAQKhazqBXmr
and I knew he was coming closer. He also leaned his back against the 796Please respect copyright.PENANANspJCPbp6s
wall as he stood right next to me and I heard him sigh.796Please respect copyright.PENANAaiBanoE25U
"Are you really going to stay mad at GD for long?" he asked.796Please respect copyright.PENANAt4jWx1ft4h
"And are you going to do the same with Hyo-rin?" I also asked.796Please respect copyright.PENANAF8Bi21M3m4
"Are we really do this right now?"796Please respect copyright.PENANAD8j90OVdQl
"Do you want us to continue making each other feel bad about yourselves?" 796Please respect copyright.PENANAFo2bGNLzlw
Taeyang chuckled silently and I smiled, still not looking at him.796Please respect copyright.PENANAswvuY9x3ir
"This isn't working, is it?" Taeyang asked.796Please respect copyright.PENANAkhNwOCOxzr
"Nope." 796Please respect copyright.PENANAFUptuSaII6
I heard Taeyang take in another deep breath and said, "I really admire you, Sam."796Please respect copyright.PENANA3eiImr2RMS
My eyes almost felt like796Please respect copyright.PENANAlLZ2e18lcS
they would pop out of their sockets. He admired me? Like how? Admiring 796Please respect copyright.PENANAOEXkcTZvjA
meant a lot of things. And right now I felt really confused.796Please respect copyright.PENANAv70CqehmuG
I turned to look at him 796Please respect copyright.PENANAe1lh6Rgsa7
and I found him staring at me. He gave me a simple smile and I didn't 796Please respect copyright.PENANAW4Qm1nWFDo
know where to begin to ask what he truly meant.796Please respect copyright.PENANAzQleMZwY1a
"I....uh, what do you, uh.... mean when you said you admired me?" I asked as I stammered.796Please respect copyright.PENANA5CzgTsakik
"That you're surrounded 796Please respect copyright.PENANAfZPjxOSVqg
by such amazing people in your life that you're even able to forgive 796Please respect copyright.PENANAOs4OGBwz9E
them despite you getting hurt by them," he answered. "I admire that 796Please respect copyright.PENANAYkd7H0qBBw
you've such a good heart. You don't seem to hold grudges for long."796Please respect copyright.PENANA9F4F5GOCAE
"A good heart? Really? I don't think so. If it's anyone with a good heart it's you, Tae, not me." 796Please respect copyright.PENANAPm3dLp3m0l
"Then if you can see that in me, I can also see that in you."796Please respect copyright.PENANA5mm3qW8taX
I sighed and I gave Taeyang a stern eye. "So what's your point?"796Please respect copyright.PENANAvKLEkKgANQ
"That you also shouldn't stay mad at GD."796Please respect copyright.PENANAhGqYzvTPwK
"Tae, you don't know how I felt yesterday when he betrayed me and left me dangling on the cliff for my life."796Please respect copyright.PENANA1aT0yAUEHL
Taeyang raised an eyebrow at me. "You felt betrayed?"796Please respect copyright.PENANAvbFmpZhJ6q
"Well, ya." I shrugged my shoulders. "What GD did to me wasn't.....It was so not....."796Please respect copyright.PENANA0Bq73u0w5u
Apparently, I couldn't 796Please respect copyright.PENANAh7UtVyQF48
seem to find the right words. I didn't even realise how I felt when I 796Please respect copyright.PENANAJPFOwliGw6
talked about this to Taeyang. On one hand I was confused and on the 796Please respect copyright.PENANAMbk2KMgTRE
other, I was still mad I could break something. I was even squeezing my 796Please respect copyright.PENANATuhcvS3zPv
panda tightly. If it were a live animal, I would have choked it to 796Please respect copyright.PENANA3bn1MOivD5
death.796Please respect copyright.PENANATNvz2vIH6x
Taeyang still looked at me with his eyebrow raised and I didn't like that he wasn't saying anything.796Please respect copyright.PENANAPtW0agb8IJ
"Aren't you going to say anything, Tae?" I asked, sounding frustrated. "Don't look at me like that."796Please respect copyright.PENANANTaI3AILUW
Taeyang folded his arms 796Please respect copyright.PENANAyKzTFpDBQz
and said, "if you really want me to say something, I'll say what I think796Please respect copyright.PENANAhVgRktTphB
and what I'm seeing right now. You aren't mad at GD. You're just hurt."796Please respect copyright.PENANAWV3raOWvEs
"Hurt? I don't get it." I felt even more confused.796Please respect copyright.PENANAzXxyZ49kFY
"You're may think you're796Please respect copyright.PENANAo220BC2wxn
upset and angry, when actually you're hurt. You just said you felt 796Please respect copyright.PENANA5p3ylyEfgP
betrayed with what GD did to you. Feeling betrayed isn't getting angry, 796Please respect copyright.PENANAnwJTJb7xvY
but feeling hurt."796Please respect copyright.PENANAKb7Vjv55f8
I slowly took in what Taeyang said and I couldn't help but feel he was right on this one.796Please respect copyright.PENANAP4tPsEB2J7
"But I wouldn't feel 796Please respect copyright.PENANAK0WNqgRNoD
hurt or betrayed if I...." I was soon hit with the most shocking 796Please respect copyright.PENANA1lk3nQQbfB
revelation of my life and I stopped myself in mid sentence as I looked 796Please respect copyright.PENANA4BxQKdil3l
at Taeyang.796Please respect copyright.PENANAafayyIXQGJ
Taeyang gave me that 796Please respect copyright.PENANAwkh0Hpz9XM
look that he already knew what I was about to say. And he probably had 796Please respect copyright.PENANA6gMOMbc5n0
figured it out a whole lot sooner than I did. I shook my head at him, 796Please respect copyright.PENANAk4ejOUDFsH
while in return, he nodded.796Please respect copyright.PENANAoquWIFYKpm
"No, freaking way," I said, trying not to raise my voice. 796Please respect copyright.PENANARzZJN9JUoy
"Ya," said Taeyang. "Believe it or not, it seems like you like him."796Please respect copyright.PENANAkbVlOmgeeL
I didn't say a word as I796Please respect copyright.PENANAHyDca0DYNA
went back to leaning my back against the wall. I buried my chin into my796Please respect copyright.PENANAUhe0gQE7Tm
panda's soft head not really believing what just happened. The thought 796Please respect copyright.PENANAMlMXdnkWC4
of liking GD clouded my mind. Not only that. What happened between 796Please respect copyright.PENANAeIlON8rywo
Daesung and I at the park really made things complicated.796Please respect copyright.PENANAlgQx7UPbZh
"I guess you're right," I muttered to Taeyang. "But I can't tell for sure if I really like him or not."796Please respect copyright.PENANALESeeQhM4P
"Maybe all you need is a little time to figure it out," said Taeyang. "Right now, you're just confused."796Please respect copyright.PENANApAA72No6BA
"I'm 'really' confused. You've no idea."796Please respect copyright.PENANAp7rbm0dY9U
"Did something else happen that you aren't telling me?"796Please respect copyright.PENANAsKmQzvE2Ys
If there was ever a way I796Please respect copyright.PENANAFs2Pbk6oSu
would personally give Taeyang an award for, was for mind reading. It's 796Please respect copyright.PENANA9zCfSDYZ8e
like he knew what was going on inside my head. I wondered if I should 796Please respect copyright.PENANA25SGl1Clds
tell him about Daesung too, but I was saved my the bell.796Please respect copyright.PENANAYSK76ML33y
"Hey, you two, let's go, lunch is ready downstairs," said Zoey appearing in the passage. 796Please respect copyright.PENANAH2GsrEgOP3
"Okay, let me put my panda away," I said as I quickly disappeared into the room and I left it on my bed. 796Please respect copyright.PENANAoaNSJJFwED
When I came out, I still found Taeyang where I had left him and the two of us went to join the others entering the elevator.796Please respect copyright.PENANAbunsIY2z6T
"You two are really close today. Are you up to something?" Zoey asked Taeyang and I as we got into the elevator.796Please respect copyright.PENANAZJf7GCNdEf
"No, why do you ask?" I asked.796Please respect copyright.PENANAKvMd3wBBas
"Well, I'm just asking,"796Please respect copyright.PENANA1xEGd9bOfm
said Zoey, as she playfully scratched the back of her head. "Who knows,796Please respect copyright.PENANAsGScTjkm5M
Taeyang might steal you away from me and become your new best friend."796Please respect copyright.PENANAS9JhYrc9SV
"Sounds like you're jealous," said Seungri, with a mocking smile on his face.796Please respect copyright.PENANA60FzDhIAue
"No, I'm not!" Zoey snapped.796Please respect copyright.PENANAt5cBh85B1A
"Hilarious," muttered Taeyang, as he smiled.796Please respect copyright.PENANAewRtP5K5sE
"If I knew that's what you were thinking about, I wouldn't have asked," I said, as I rolled my eyes.796Please respect copyright.PENANAtxLTT5L1Wy
I pressed the button 796Please respect copyright.PENANAh10ZElGVpt
leading us to the ground floor and the doors to the elevator closed 796Please respect copyright.PENANA1ULDnJqgkh
before us. In a matter of seconds, we found ourselves on the ground 796Please respect copyright.PENANAEY09No6nLS
floor and we all walked out of the elevator.796Please respect copyright.PENANAzripPvNC7x
We went to the main 796Please respect copyright.PENANATh1AT3qyB8
hotel dinning room and a waiter lead us to the table reserved for us for796Please respect copyright.PENANAjOIq5NY6nr
lunch. It was a huge round table in the VIP section. There were ten 796Please respect copyright.PENANAYhtOBjRnab
seats around the table, obviously for all BigBang and Toxins members.796Please respect copyright.PENANALfd8N1Xx9z
"Why didn't you invite, our managers and Lee?" I asked Zoey as we approached the table.796Please respect copyright.PENANAnBiMVNqnPs
"Are you serious? Those guys are busy and you wanted me to invite them?" Zoey asked. 796Please respect copyright.PENANA2YW1qopp7w
"To be honest, we just 796Please respect copyright.PENANAiNq1lQi0X7
wanted to avoid them asking us questions about yesterday," said Daniel. 796Please respect copyright.PENANAHCG0xTLe2Q
"We wanted it to be strictly Toxins and BigBang."796Please respect copyright.PENANAyGR7NffENB
"Was that so hard to say?" I asked Zoey upon Daniel's answer.796Please respect copyright.PENANA8N4BGTdQSO
"Maybe. Let's forget about it and sit, shall we?" Zoey suggested and she walked ahead of us, reaching the table first.796Please respect copyright.PENANAhJHbGenqP6
We all got to the table and before I could pull out my chair, Taeyang pulled the chair out for me and I glady sat.796Please respect copyright.PENANARDfVGwjJgj
"Thanks, Tae," I said as I smiled up at him.796Please respect copyright.PENANA0XEGd500X0
"You're welcome," said Taeyang as he sat next to me and Daesung sat on my other side.796Please respect copyright.PENANAz7toTaN2FO
"Okay, weird, you two are getting real close," said Zoey as she sat across the table looking directly at Taeyang and me.796Please respect copyright.PENANAAoftR2zktA
"Nah, I don't think so,"796Please respect copyright.PENANAycnKj3cGtS
said Christine. "Taeyang is just so sweet. I wish I was the sick one so796Please respect copyright.PENANAYYiFwaozt1
he would be treating me like that."796Please respect copyright.PENANAJrDLy7O8RK
"Mmm, I don't think so,"796Please respect copyright.PENANAgfj16Qvp2c
said Zoey, shaking her head. "Did something happen between the two of 796Please respect copyright.PENANASlkIhrlGvL
you yesterday that I'm not aware of?"796Please respect copyright.PENANAdvn9LJu1nO
"My goodness," I rolled my eyes and sniffed. "Stop making a drama out of everything, Zoey."796Please respect copyright.PENANAp8IVJVC1rM
"I'm not," said Zoey, shrugging her shoulders.796Please respect copyright.PENANA7QX1agSqMx
"Then, stop trying to make one."796Please respect copyright.PENANAwx6aJgY336
"Before you two decide to tear each other apart," said Seungri. "Can we please have our food now? I'm starving."796Please respect copyright.PENANAnhJAnTK4wZ
"Ya, me too," said Mike.796Please respect copyright.PENANAAOR7xYrE9G
"Wait, we've to wait for TOP and GD to get here first," said Zoey.796Please respect copyright.PENANAGutzAqdKsP
"Seriously?" Daniel asked. "Do we really have to wait?"796Please respect copyright.PENANAzJciTkBDHB
"We can't really be so sure how long they're going to take to get here," said Daesung.796Please respect copyright.PENANA8VeTmUJJXE
"They will be here any moment now," said Zoey as she stared at her fancy white wrist watch. "Trust me."796Please respect copyright.PENANAo1kBzww69a
"Really? Can we just get on with it?" Mike asked.796Please respect copyright.PENANAPAMvh4A23p
"We haven't even passed a minute, and you're complaining already?" Daesung asked almost in a fit of laughter.796Please respect copyright.PENANAfVsd8WN0Xm
"Ah, here they come," said Zoey as she looked behind me. "Told you they will be here."796Please respect copyright.PENANAGvq3KG72MZ
I didn't even dare try 796Please respect copyright.PENANANY2qOsLP0B
to look behind me as I twirled a strand of my hair with my fingers as I 796Please respect copyright.PENANACRrxvcFpMk
coughed. Zoey got up from her seat and ran over to G-Dragon and TOP.796Please respect copyright.PENANAyDZFdxVnx2
"I'm so glad you're here," said Zoey. 796Please respect copyright.PENANAfQgj9IdY40
"I'm glad you invited us," came TOP's voice. "How is our patient doing?"796Please respect copyright.PENANABewJ5EyEJ6
"Why don't you see for yourself?" Zoey suggested.796Please respect copyright.PENANASipWDnxLPu
I heard footsteps coming796Please respect copyright.PENANAbIV8YaqMtX
towards the table and I couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable 796Please respect copyright.PENANAeWct3gOaZB
as I moved in my seat. Taeyang must have noticed because he turned to 796Please respect copyright.PENANAlodHKUMekT
look at me.796Please respect copyright.PENANAmM2vninkAW
"Are you okay?" he whispered.796Please respect copyright.PENANAIa1FbTxtvC
"I'm trying to," I whispered back.796Please respect copyright.PENANA0fZ3JSw3Jv
I soon felt strong hands796Please respect copyright.PENANA2W1Kk5cJcI
grip my shoulders and I was startled. For a moment, I thought it was GD796Please respect copyright.PENANA1tQYlujvzO
until I took a whiff of TOP's musky cologne.796Please respect copyright.PENANA9Mj8gx0h6K
"Hi, Sam," said TOP, as he bent over to give me a peck on the cheek. "How are you doing?"796Please respect copyright.PENANAMYV9oCu0td
"I'm a whole lot better,796Please respect copyright.PENANA7cIWqWSSam
thanks," I replied, as I felt myself blush and the spot where TOP 796Please respect copyright.PENANAYoiQ0hsaEx
pecked me burn up. "It's nothing serious." I sniffed.796Please respect copyright.PENANAgPYdk8Ghrr
"Glad to hear that."796Please respect copyright.PENANAGer4C4Ahm1
When TOP let go of my shoulders and walked away to take his seat next to Mike, I heard G-Dragon's voice behind me.796Please respect copyright.PENANAomANDMhlHm
"I'm glad you're okay, Sam. I thought of the worst when you got sick."796Please respect copyright.PENANA4MKSFqcE1L
I was planning not to 796Please respect copyright.PENANAVr4jDtUYRf
turn and look at G-Dragon, but I did anyway. When I looked at him, he 796Please respect copyright.PENANAEJGebW8XIO
was staring at me with those captivating eyes of his. I could tell that 796Please respect copyright.PENANAIBjVotfeNG
he was sorry for what he did to me yesterday. I was wondering whether to796Please respect copyright.PENANAjBaE5Qx1Ry
jump at him and tear him apart, or just let the problem go like water 796Please respect copyright.PENANAerelLfksVX
under the bridge.796Please respect copyright.PENANA29Tk6H9FR1
I smiled, at least that was an effort, and said, "I'm fine, GD, my cold isn't serious neither is it contagious."796Please respect copyright.PENANAGZ4asc287t
"Wait, you're not mad at me anymore?" he asked.796Please respect copyright.PENANAOg8aW4ZfLp
I tried not to frown. "Let's not talk about that. I'm starved."796Please respect copyright.PENANAfKg67mZDPS
"Okay, then," said Zoey, as she wrapped her arm around G-Dragon's elbow. "Let's sit and have lunch."796Please respect copyright.PENANAvPmumKOZC1
Zoey and G-Dragon sat down next to each other as they were conversating about something.796Please respect copyright.PENANA2imL85LeIv
"You know what? At least I tried not to sound mad at him," I said to Taeyang.796Please respect copyright.PENANA8T815IHjMK
"Will you try to keep that up for long?" Taeyang asked.796Please respect copyright.PENANAQOyZUIoyJQ
"If I can manage to have lunch without any mishaps, then I know things will be okay."796Please respect copyright.PENANAPze21z2e2p
The waiters soon came 796Please respect copyright.PENANA6CvKfW634R
and laid our lunch on the table. We first had lovely soup for a starter.796Please respect copyright.PENANAVCNYDgQWot
And since Zoey mentioned earlier that it was a special lunch 796Please respect copyright.PENANAYFq6LRdx9j
specifically for me, we were all served my favourite dish as the main 796Please respect copyright.PENANA3HOQlkkyO8
meal, Italian chicken terazzini.796Please respect copyright.PENANABb7IaTsbPa
For a moment, I felt 796Please respect copyright.PENANAx7ADVgu3oN
more at home than ever before. A feeling I hadn't felt in a long time. 796Please respect copyright.PENANArwzXS4C0Qt
Zoey really knew how to make me feel more pleased with her in order for 796Please respect copyright.PENANATg7EoSydE9
me to forget that I was ever mad.796Please respect copyright.PENANANq17xLp94q
"Mmm, this is so 796Please respect copyright.PENANAlYM2zzwEyW
delicious," said Mike, a few minutes in during the meal. "Now I see why 796Please respect copyright.PENANAmJObqCAYnX
you like this dish, Sam. It's so awesome."796Please respect copyright.PENANAr1N88qhyCO
"I agree," said Seungri. "And the chefs here really know how to make a good meal."796Please respect copyright.PENANAyxUoJhr90i
"We wouldn't have had this if it wasn't for Zoey," I said, as I looked at her. "Thanks, by the way."796Please respect copyright.PENANALWU7J0wYeI
"Anything for you, Sam,"796Please respect copyright.PENANA4EbSyYvb3f
said Zoey with a huge grin on her face. "But to be honest, this whole 796Please respect copyright.PENANAQrgkQlr5pG
lunch thing, wasn't really my idea."796Please respect copyright.PENANAjiTyWkUexo
"Oh? Then whose was it then?" Daesung asked.796Please respect copyright.PENANAMrfKiwRYS6
"Da, GD. Who else?" Zoey replied as she playfully nudged G-Dragon on his arm with her elbow.796Please respect copyright.PENANAYXcEplvCZh
I had just taken in some796Please respect copyright.PENANAfimY1QTiw6
food into my mouth and I almost choked on it, but I tried not to make 796Please respect copyright.PENANAwNGyyLFflk
it look obvious. I slowly put my spoon and fork on the plate as I slowly796Please respect copyright.PENANAn4ht33cgfq
tried to chew my food, but at the same time, processing what Zoey had 796Please respect copyright.PENANArHYfezkaWq
just said.796Please respect copyright.PENANAMfvXeaautG
"This was all G-Dragon's idea?" I asked.796Please respect copyright.PENANAvColutA2Zj
"Well, ya," Christine 796Please respect copyright.PENANAmS0osgz6LL
replied. "You were so mad that you weren't talking to us, when we met 796Please respect copyright.PENANA868qrN6k3Y
G-Dragon at YG this morning, he suggested the idea of throwing you a 796Please respect copyright.PENANAOV0XcCUfNN
special lunch to lighten your mood."796Please respect copyright.PENANAQ8aQbSwmsr
At that moment, I didn't know if all this lightened my mood or just darkened it even more.796Please respect copyright.PENANAK19aXCLZhk
"Thanks for the lunch, 796Please respect copyright.PENANAkkqa1N402C
GD," I said with a smile, which felt rather painful on my face. "It's so796Please respect copyright.PENANA421Y7vjOkH
sweet of you to have come up with this."796Please respect copyright.PENANAUq275eC0Nu
"You're welcome," said G-Dragon as he winked at me.796Please respect copyright.PENANANplgr1KP7E
I almost felt like 796Please respect copyright.PENANAGPqIzaR0et
jumping at him from my seat to poke his eyes out with a fork, but I was 796Please respect copyright.PENANAg1mCtkk8gh
surprised with myself when I didn't move a muscle and continued to stare796Please respect copyright.PENANA7nPzl4OBYo
at him with a fake smile on my face. Where was all this anger coming 796Please respect copyright.PENANAfcuZwktVCp
from? And why was it that with every minute that passed, my anger kept 796Please respect copyright.PENANA7z9VxqJej0
turning into rage?796Please respect copyright.PENANAdEcZq7RkCj
Oh, goodness. I needed 796Please respect copyright.PENANApNiXZMsgGA
help, that's for sure. I wasn't supposed to be mad at G-Dragon up to 796Please respect copyright.PENANA8KfBXrKHbr
this point. But why did I still feel angry and hurt? 796Please respect copyright.PENANAepzeIk6dMn
I tried to push aside 796Please respect copyright.PENANAYyl3pXwEj9
the questions and my boiling anger as I stared at my food and continued 796Please respect copyright.PENANA0wDGyia3FO
to eat. When we were all done with our main meal, we were served 796Please respect copyright.PENANAS6i8Eg79w7
dessert. Again, surprise, surprise, it was my favourite dessert, frozen 796Please respect copyright.PENANA7oLpkuR07m
chocolate moussé.796Please respect copyright.PENANASJDISQI1Ye
"Yum, yum, yum," I said,796Please respect copyright.PENANAp0DJzYyhBA
with a bright smile on my face as the waiter laid down a dessert bowl 796Please respect copyright.PENANAreWnDGeQLO
filled with chocolate moussé in front of me.796Please respect copyright.PENANA9ctryYWk0u
"This is the most excited I've seen you today, Sam," said Taeyang.796Please respect copyright.PENANAvWJc6esRGu
"It's because chocolate moussé is her favourite dessert," said Daniel. "Give her that and she would be your best friend."796Please respect copyright.PENANAonDB2xR10F
"I'll keep that in mind," said TOP.796Please respect copyright.PENANA55pma3B8kI
I didn't wait for 796Please respect copyright.PENANAfVS7hellkV
everyone else to get their own share of dessert. As soon as I got mine, I796Please respect copyright.PENANATeJ431sMc6
got a dessert spoon and started to eat the cold dessert. Mmmm, I closed796Please respect copyright.PENANAA1MH6uLPjc
my eyes as I took it in my mouth and for once, I felt like I was in 796Please respect copyright.PENANAfwFsTfMeCx
heaven.796Please respect copyright.PENANATOCUcM0ihP
"This is so good," I said, with my eyes closed as I savoured the chocolate in my mouth.796Please respect copyright.PENANAuvQLP3Abb1
"Be careful though," said G-Dragon. "You're not supposed to be eating cold stuff when you've a cold and a cough."796Please respect copyright.PENANAWjW8vs7iZP
"I don't care," I said 796Please respect copyright.PENANA6N7pUYO1MP
as I opened my eyes and smiled at G-Dragon. "I would end up with a bad 796Please respect copyright.PENANAchNlT49xed
sore throat and I still wouldn't mind."796Please respect copyright.PENANAkJ4foF6XFh
G-Dragon smiled back at 796Please respect copyright.PENANAlAvz08cBcb
me and I realised that I wasn't mad at him anymore. It looked like I 796Please respect copyright.PENANA7Es0GDOoWT
really couldn't stay mad at him. And I was glad that all the hate faded 796Please respect copyright.PENANAUsSnkCatMR
away.796Please respect copyright.PENANAVaJAi8fg7b
After dessert, we all 796Please respect copyright.PENANAwNmw3goArM
just sat there and started to chat. For once, it felt really good to be 796Please respect copyright.PENANAmV2naahjmY
on speaking terms with everyone again. We were soon talking about what 796Please respect copyright.PENANA8eEhHHBKJP
happened yesterday. After going through all that and talking about it, 796Please respect copyright.PENANAhfMvm90W4R
it all seemed rather funny and we all laughed about it. Although, the 796Please respect copyright.PENANA6VIDVAAeix
part where G-Dragon had made me dive into the pool seemed to hurt a 796Please respect copyright.PENANA6W7ZcxsMVj
little, I knew I would grow out of it someday.796Please respect copyright.PENANAOqddeTRfOs
"Hey, may I ask?" Seungri asked. "How did Lee manage to keep our managers at YG for so long?"796Please respect copyright.PENANA5Yd5crrUDF
"Not sure, I'll make sure to ask her later on," I said.796Please respect copyright.PENANALBEfPs3EXk
"Yesterday, was just hilarious," said Zoey, wiping away a fake tear after laughing. "We should try that again some time."796Please respect copyright.PENANArKtUUTIhvI
"But this time, not at the water park," I said.796Please respect copyright.PENANAdAU1OKvvcn
"Then where?" Daesung asked. "The water park was so much fun."796Please respect copyright.PENANAGrYIoXS1LX
"I suggest we try to figure that out later," I said. "We have stuff to do."796Please respect copyright.PENANAhgoICHhVvm
"What stuff?" TOP asked.796Please respect copyright.PENANAVaiL6bUFCR
"The song. Don't tell me you all forgot?"796Please respect copyright.PENANAlSNhGHeIzQ
"Oh, the song!" Mike slapped his forehead. "I myself forgot about that."796Please respect copyright.PENANAXQEqqC5YZ0
"I thought both you and G-Dragon were going to work on it," said Christine.796Please respect copyright.PENANA0DsvvTDYlS
"Ya, but I have a better idea," I said.796Please respect copyright.PENANARJTHmuCdk0
I felt Taeyang look at me and I turned to look at him.796Please respect copyright.PENANAEMuuEQGCDR
"Are you really going through with that?" Taeyang asked, as he whispered.796Please respect copyright.PENANAjXZk7A6y1N
"I don't think that's a big deal, is it?" I whispered back. "I think it's a good idea."796Please respect copyright.PENANAh0woyVU1gT
"Wait, what's going on?"796Please respect copyright.PENANAvCmIJxzlyT
G-Dragon asked, as he noticed Taeyang and I whispering to each other. 796Please respect copyright.PENANAW7r681YYS1
"And what idea have you come up with for the song?"796Please respect copyright.PENANAEohRWZQ3HY
"I thought we should all796Please respect copyright.PENANAtCZjAAb5Z2
work on the lyrics together. I feel it will be a lot better if we all 796Please respect copyright.PENANATCUSprP06C
bring out our ideas and put them as lyrics."796Please respect copyright.PENANAdmIUpbAFsX
"But why do we have to put our heads together if there is you and G-Dragon who are better at song writing?" TOP asked.796Please respect copyright.PENANAiMHviSJfEH
"I don't know, I feel we796Please respect copyright.PENANAMoVpxsuITx
have to put our all in the song by coming up with lyrics from everyone.796Please respect copyright.PENANAS3uHuStK9R
It might sound a little strange, but we all have to help each other out796Please respect copyright.PENANA6cEVIVnT7j
on this. If there is anyone objecting to it, you're free to do so."796Please respect copyright.PENANAkFgStDwnVV
"I don't get it though,"796Please respect copyright.PENANAkfmwgficBw
said G-Dragon, as he leaned back on his chair and stared at me. "What 796Please respect copyright.PENANAvxoBB9MYAs
made you come up with this idea when we already agreed on who will write796Please respect copyright.PENANAj1htuk5oVH
the lyrics?"796Please respect copyright.PENANA1aRpkBXfGz
"I don't know, it kind of felt right, I think," I said.796Please respect copyright.PENANA04VZS3DjKi
"You think?" G-Dragon now raised his eyebrow at me. "Is there something you aren't telling us?"796Please respect copyright.PENANAtnFqf6WQUD
This time, I also raised796Please respect copyright.PENANA9aNXSj1pvm
an eyebrow. I had told Taeyang about my idea earlier not because I was 796Please respect copyright.PENANAVXRXUIP8yo
trying to avoid G-Dragon but for everyone else's benefit.796Please respect copyright.PENANAmGnpR3G47p
"What makes you think I have other intentions?" I asked.796Please respect copyright.PENANAwuezrioZwN
"Maybe you might still be mad at G-Dragon," Zoey blurted out.796Please respect copyright.PENANAcOWE8Qs0XM
I sighed. Great! These were the times you wished Zoey never had such a big mouth.796Please respect copyright.PENANAHi8VU22vi4
"Is that true? Are you still mad at me?" G-Dragon asked.796Please respect copyright.PENANAd2k14T3csD
"No, not any more," I answered. "At first I was, but now I'm over with what happened yesterday."796Please respect copyright.PENANAcSCaWHp3W2
"Or are you still mad that you don't want to work on the lyrics with me?"796Please respect copyright.PENANATpV2YxVqKy
By the way G-Dragon 796Please respect copyright.PENANARI8dyHVavF
spoke, I could tell he was hurting. But it was pretty hard to try to 796Please respect copyright.PENANASMyn9yAxKW
convince him that yes, I was mad at first and I wanted to avoid him. And796Please respect copyright.PENANAu2AS7KYezS
no, since I'm no longer mad at him any more and that the idea of all of796Please respect copyright.PENANAM7ucCXXchc
us working on the lyrics for the song seemed like a good idea.796Please respect copyright.PENANAR18BQcZttH
"I just told you, I'm not mad anymore."796Please respect copyright.PENANALUZSVgl6VT
"Why is it that I don't believe you?"796Please respect copyright.PENANA3pbuAbxE4h
"Maybe, it's because you're objecting to my idea and you just want to make up what would be a valid reason for it."796Please respect copyright.PENANARttFHl665W
"Mmm, looking at it through Sam's point of view, I see nothing wrong if all of us work on the song," said Daniel.796Please respect copyright.PENANAEhGtsMfMP8
"Then why come up with this in the first place?" Zoey asked. 796Please respect copyright.PENANAnfrvoUpqb2
"I already told you, I just think it's a good idea," I repeated.796Please respect copyright.PENANAwdIxJ2Lxjy
"Well, I'm not up for it," said G-Dragon folding his arms. "I object."796Please respect copyright.PENANA3PW3IzAb22
"Well, you should have said that instead of blaming me for coming up with this as an excuse."796Please respect copyright.PENANAaAR9zayWp2
"I think you are, and you're not telling us."796Please respect copyright.PENANAHUzFqZz15L
"Are we going to go through this again? You just objected."796Please respect copyright.PENANAvRPiYB45yl
"I could go through this over and over again if I had to until you tell us the truth."796Please respect copyright.PENANAedfy3YtQ4V
"What truth?" I asked.796Please respect copyright.PENANAAOBrH4ypZI
"Okay, guys this is getting a little out of hand," said Taeyang. "Don't forget, we aren't the only ones here."796Please respect copyright.PENANAYICWus7x9O
Taeyang was right. I was796Please respect copyright.PENANAPij3QXXIWX
so caught up in the argument with G-Dragon, I forgot that we were in 796Please respect copyright.PENANA9uUDMX1pAh
the hotel dining room. I looked around us and a few heads from other 796Please respect copyright.PENANAkg3AIX7RDd
tables turned to ours. It seemed like our argument caught some people's 796Please respect copyright.PENANAI51kFTqRPK
attention.796Please respect copyright.PENANAYlUuAUMCkr
"Tae's right," I said. "We shouldn't be arguing, much less here."796Please respect copyright.PENANAYyQ4wO94Z8
"Then let's conclude on this once and for all then," said Deasung. "Those who favour Sam's idea, raise your hand."796Please respect copyright.PENANAdaypmJWPEY
Taeyang, Daesung, Daniel796Please respect copyright.PENANAtttp2Oh7DY
and Mike, raised their hands. That meant Zoey, TOP, Seungri and 796Please respect copyright.PENANACQ0eed4T0z
Christine were on G-Dragon's side. What a bummer!796Please respect copyright.PENANAcWRvB3gXUi
"Whoops, looks like it's a tie," said Zoey playfully with a smirk.796Please respect copyright.PENANAgHRzGUq6d7
"It's not funny, Zoey," I said shaking my head.796Please respect copyright.PENANAJ4Axkq8GVz
"Well, this just got serious," said Seungri, scratching his head.796Please respect copyright.PENANAkCnDZvBz20
"It's a tie, so I suggest we..." I was then interrupted by G-Dragon.796Please respect copyright.PENANA3NQgH8NAVn
"No, this time you aren't going to say or suggest anything," said G-Dragon.796Please respect copyright.PENANABH5eRYJeM9
"But I....." 796Please respect copyright.PENANAzANsyQZiD6
"Sam, sshh," said Zoey, 796Please respect copyright.PENANAMG5SYKu1LU
pressing her index finger to her lips, telling me to keep quiet. "You've796Please respect copyright.PENANAFOa0n4oVFI
talked way too much, don't you think?"796Please respect copyright.PENANAm5ib70HySJ
That felt like a slap in796Please respect copyright.PENANAn7ByGPZAPT
the face and I felt my face burn up in embarrassment. It looked like 796Please respect copyright.PENANAUO8mU52Ta3
the tables had turned on me today. At first I was mad at G-Dragon and 796Please respect copyright.PENANAL73Vd9Q5i4
the other Toxins, but now, I was the one pissing everyone off. What 796Please respect copyright.PENANAiFEWoMJPWY
happened to me being the leader? I know G-Dragon was older, but what 796Please respect copyright.PENANA40SB9zBOer
about what I thought was best for the whole group?796Please respect copyright.PENANABD2bDK0dE5
"I suggest we think about it and when we meet tomorrow, we vote over it again," said G-Dragon.796Please respect copyright.PENANAh5UQ9AFRmX
"That's fine with me," said Mike.796Please respect copyright.PENANADm6Bm3Cmci
Everyone else agreed, 796Please respect copyright.PENANAEKYdKumDqx
except me since I was told not to say a word. I personally also thought 796Please respect copyright.PENANAppURdvJB8k
it was a good idea to try and think things through. But what if it 796Please respect copyright.PENANAvqCZXAv02S
didn't work out tomorrow? What would we do then? I had a terrible 796Please respect copyright.PENANAZnnzserBch
feeling that things weren't going to go as planned and we needed a Plan 796Please respect copyright.PENANA83X2wBGjcv
B, just in case.796Please respect copyright.PENANAEH7HqA28tI
"Okay, then, we will meet tomorrow," said G-Dragon as he stood up to leave.796Please respect copyright.PENANANePQNZIsa3
"But I've something to say," I blurted out.796Please respect copyright.PENANAKHVNcVYqMO
"Not now, Sam. We will 796Please respect copyright.PENANAQS02DALKyG
meet tomorrow," said G-Dragon as he looked at me and walked away from 796Please respect copyright.PENANAagf7vWA5Oi
the table heading for the door. I had to admit, the way he looked at me 796Please respect copyright.PENANA9d1C47Ft65
gave me goosebumps.796Please respect copyright.PENANAWCzNfexQab
"Way to go, Sam," said Zoey, as she also stood up from the table. "You just made him upset. I need to go calm him down."796Please respect copyright.PENANASL40o8cmAr
Zoey went after G-Dragon and I sat back on my chair, feeling defeated and powerless. 796Please respect copyright.PENANABFfYKqijWQ
One by one everyone 796Please respect copyright.PENANA31mYs8AG1L
started to leave the table without even saying a word. It was awkward 796Please respect copyright.PENANALVxjSqtclx
with the argument that had taken place, and saying something didn't seem796Please respect copyright.PENANAEHDJkPSGfG
appropriate.796Please respect copyright.PENANAb7jT6sXaE9
I was soon left with Taeyang at the table and I looked at him, wondering why he hadn't left.796Please respect copyright.PENANAnySipE9DkX
"Aren't you supposed to have left by now?" I asked.796Please respect copyright.PENANAwL3Dp4Fgta
"And leave you all alone? No way," said Taeyang.796Please respect copyright.PENANAJviV4X0TfF
"Why do I feel like I've just become the villain?" I asked, my thoughts elsewhere.796Please respect copyright.PENANA3XdFF5qKx0
"You aren't a villain. You just feel bad that not everyone agreed to your idea."796Please respect copyright.PENANAw33CgSUt43
"It's not that. I pissed796Please respect copyright.PENANAFeIsEE3u5H
almost everyone off and that makes me feel bad. How I wish I could take796Please respect copyright.PENANAi8hTN408bi
everything I said back. Too bad I can't control time."796Please respect copyright.PENANAP01OYjfKAX
"You never knew that was going to happen. Let's just hope for the best that it would all seem like one bad dream."796Please respect copyright.PENANAl8mSVcNE79
"Thanks, Tae" I said, trying to put up a smile. "It means a lot that you're still here."796Please respect copyright.PENANAFBOuFCIDh2
Taeyang placed his hand 796Please respect copyright.PENANAb06bMwJ1Ec
on my shoulder, an assurance that he was there for me no matter what. He796Please respect copyright.PENANAnxKeWfxGZd
smiled back at me and I felt comforted.796Please respect copyright.PENANAHCSbOsDUQE
I knew I had to hope for796Please respect copyright.PENANAXEgKvs8wao
the best just like Taeyang had suggested. But I couldn't ignore the gut796Please respect copyright.PENANA8dyHMw7HCX
feeling that things weren't going to run smooth and easy from now 796Please respect copyright.PENANAAyiB54CT6U
on wards. Especially now that G-Dragon was angry at me. He seemed more 796Please respect copyright.PENANAwGWrl20kw1
angrier at me than I was at him. I feared for the worst and I knew this 796Please respect copyright.PENANAIXFaLvgy0L
was just the beginning of a heavy storm ahead.
