My body ached all over 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF6iGrMVcGA
when I finally woke up. My eyes slowly opened and a flash of light above1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzfi72IkmXR
me was blinding that I had to shield my eyes with my hand. When my eyes1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbtCVRKW9H3
adjusted to the light, I sat up and I could tell I hadn't slept on my 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIoXXx0T7TW
bed.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkpRD8Muwp
I scratched my head as I1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7pbte9QuTh
slowly took in my surrounding. I had slept in the lounge on the floor. I1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK82qCQYhUA
closed my eyes and murmured to myself. Collins was going to kill me if 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjAemm7TpUm
he found me here.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLe4MPfJi6T
I slowly stood up and I 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrupb4wo0Ub
realised that I had been covered with a blanket when it dropped to the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXUtIpom3Jc
floor. Lee must have found me sleeping and covered me with it. So 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ21X4cHsObR
thoughtful of her. And the guitar laid on the couch.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsLkcrshfQi
"Morning, sleepy head," came Collins' voice behind me.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgp0663EQsG
I almost jumped in 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3s3l1pxmyQ
fright when I turned around. I found Collins sitting at the dining 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0JVUheYjYV
table, drinking a hot cup of coffee and looking at his tablet. He was 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQJESskjX8
obviously reading the news online.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXhjCeBbU6j
"Hey, Collins," I replied as I walked over to him.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrZEjoTZjT
"What did we say about working on the song the whole night?" Collins asked, still looking at his tablet.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0vFxTfYO5
"'Don't tire yourself 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZBQEJFCOdc
out and just go to sleep,'" I said, remembering what Collins had told me1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0mf0cGtZO4
last night since I refused to go to sleep when I arrived.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXENcJ8SSmv
"And you didn't listen to me and you kept on playing your guitar the whole night. Your song sounds incredible, by the way."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn47m8sKs7V
"Oh, you were listening?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFuHSYSUXcs
"Ya, you kept on playing1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf0pv6KzCuq
until I couldn't hear you play anymore. I came to check up on you and 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1L9MDy6ZL
you were hugging the guitar like a teddy bear."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHNx3BPcMy
"Thanks, Collins." I smiled at him.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf1OGz1HSp7
"For what?" Collins asked as he looked at me.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFKWLn3t49
"For covering me with a blanket."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrx8GAoZK82
Collins looked at me 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjla5ALlgfb
with his eyebrow raised and smiled. "Go take a shower. We need to leave 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡofugOqzxQZ
for YG. Yang Hyun-suk also needs to hear the song."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAGfsZXCwt
"Okay." I smiled as I nodded.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmD2P6aA5Q
"Morning, people," said Lee as she came into the lounge. "It feels really weird these guys aren't here. The place is so quiet."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDuatoDNH7P
"I know," I said. "I really miss them."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6B7m2KTCkT
"Me too."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe7cXLG4zCB
"I don't," said Collins as he sipped some of his coffee.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0PNxLOSbkZ
Lee and I threw Collins angry glances. Collins chuckled to himself.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWUwgpWasLW
"Going to take a shower," I said.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0EUAAiF7p2
"You go do that," said Lee. "I'll order us some breakfast."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOaPnpgMpGC
After I freshened myself1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxcwj2iJkzU
up, I went back to the lounge. I still found Lee and Collins by the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO30Dh4COrA
dining table. Lee was having her usual toast and eggs for breakfast, and1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmF6PEmg819
Collins was still on his tablet.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Y36dvSlbw
"Are you going to keep on reading the news the whole morning?" I asked as I took a seat at the table.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcHrXK5uowW
"Nope. Just looking at 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsoLOVkKas0
messages," Collins replied. "Zoey sent me one. She said she will be 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfSbsrfUxF
coming back late at night with the others."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5CMNJGX73l
"Are they having a good time?" I got a slice of bread that laid on the middle of the table and was applying marmalade on it.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzECkW2ThKy
"You know Zoey. She doesn't take any opportunity for granted when she is in some glamorous place."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaz6xDgXl6U
"True." I shrugged as I got another slice of bread.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3b0BnJLRA
"She even sent Collins a picture," said Lee. She turned to face Collins as she jerked her head. "Show her."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcTedcmp3n
Collins handed his 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn1lUBzmBaO
tablet over to me and I took it. Zoey took a selfie of herself with the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVOsJT9Wgx
other Toxins, G-Dragon and TOP behind her. They were all cheering and 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXB2QUxjgCA
raising their hands up in the air. I smiled. Looks like they were really1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5m7JX2XcPy
having a great time.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWySdOg1hG
"Is it me or is that the Eiffle Tower behind them?" I asked.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpBeW6MsrTm
"It sure is," said Lee, raising a cup of coffee to her lips.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4NHZzZwpwo
I mumbled. I had always wanted to go to Paris and see the Eiffle Tower. These guys were so lucky. Boo hoo for me.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5mxdmnkoJe
"They should have as 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5NiFvLFZXJ
much fun as they could possibly can," said Collins as I gave him back 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qjJh31NC4
the tablet. "They are in for a lovely treat."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4CezPDT2P
"What? Is it about the song?" I looked at Collins.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ20orlfvgy8
"No, it's not about the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7n9HFsBe7
song. They already know they have a lot of work to do with the song when1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3U4O5gnGV5
they get back. I'm talking about something else."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjPdcEKFWO
I looked at Lee who sat 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXK8QhBEQ0W
opposite me. I gave her a look that told her to tell me what Collins 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXeZ1cZH8Y6
meant. But she looked at me with a worried expression. That meant she 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlYowf1KTKU
didn't have the slightest clue of what Collins was talking about.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcz5oyOTWCX
"What are you talking about Collins?" I asked as I poured myself a cup of coffee.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7K27N1jSHk
"Oh, you will see," said Collins with a huge grin on his face.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzrpy09e8xy
I almost shuddered when Collins smiled. I'd never liked that smile. That only meant Collins had something up his sleeve.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ85vZWP5DJy
"You can tell us, Collins. I won't tell the others."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKt1kGqUHw
"If I tell you, I'll 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufRjwoGAZT
just ruin everything. Just sit back and wait for things to happen. 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKt8mQcZNp
Finish your breakfast. We will be out of this place in a few minutes."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWo30NXzrY
Collins got up from his 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51jM7f9FtT
chair and walked away with a satisfied look on his face. How I wish I 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLw9Znd6BgG
knew what he was thinking. Whatever he planned for us seemed rather 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCXcwx0xGJe
amusing to him and might turn out bad for some of us.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡROnBw4v2Sw
"What do you know?" I 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbiGvjyN8oD
asked Lee, immediately I knew that Collins was in his room. I leaned 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkcGu62gkXU
forward to look at her straight in the eye. I seemed more like a 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCAysAYiXpU
detective asking questions to a criminal.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoujFmTeCOJ
"I don't know," Lee 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUya8e7YBSK
replied with a shocked look on her face. "I am as surprised as you are. 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoFgzSNQjI0
And besides, I wasn't with Collins the whole day of yesterday."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdjYzg5DXk
I knew something was up 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbaS3IIQUVi
when Collins wasn't around yesterday. I wondered what he and Yang 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZrfaCNLmIK
Hyun-suk had planned this time. Collins had a happy look on his face.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkrvjh9PlmZ
"This is not good," I said as I leaned back on my seat.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxgRNPa8BV2
"I don't think it's that bad," said Lee. "Whatever they have planned, will be okay. Even for you."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUi18485prx
"Well, hopefully." I blew out a puff of air and shook my head as I thought of what happened to G-Dragon and I yesterday.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHIJYDIrod
"Hey, what's wrong?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiG1SyvVDH4
"I think G-Dragon and I aren't on good terms again."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG4W3YOOw7t
"What? What happened?" Lee looked shocked and then again, confused.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEcotniQ6dE
"Things were going so well before things went down the drain when Zoey and TOP came to YG yesterday."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhOcuAmlObb
Lee leaned her head backwards and let out a huge murmuring sound. "Don't tell me Zoey ruined everything."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1ykgdCntn
"Well, kind of," I said 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1HqoCVR7u
as I thought of what happened and who to blame. "It's complicated. And 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsRWSI1M45J
to be honest, I don't who to blame. But it wasn't entirely their fault."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7AwwIT3pV
"Eat up. You will need all the energy to sing that song. We'll talk about this later."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wmwtAiLbn
"Okay."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzvEuiwj3F
I was just done eating my breakfast when Collins came to tell us that it was time to go. I carried the guitar and my notebook.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYB7OoXcY4
Lee, Collins and I soon 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTV6iPb4Nfg
left the hotel and we were at YG. To be honest, I felt kind of nervous. I1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡELO1qbCTPF
was going to perform the song in front of Collins and Yang Hyun-suk but1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOyjVqklNy
it felt like I was going on the X Factor auditions just to be judged 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvOMoZjEJIu
afterwards. Collins did say the song sounded amazing. I just wondered 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAMJgiWaas
what Yang Hyun-suk would say.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTmYexjbXa
I was waiting in th 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXylekXBX7
recording studio, waiting for Collins and Yang Hyun-suk. I kept telling 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtSOPIyNeZH
myself that everything was going to be alright and I shouldn't worry 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVbVZjhP9Hy
because I had gone through all of this several times. But today, I was 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu84n7acgdc
edgy and my heart was beating so fast.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHT7Em9ZVsM
I was pacing up and down1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbkRHvQgrE
with agitation written all over my face when the door to the studio 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTLskOasRsJ
opened. I turned to the door and Lee came in with Taeyang and his 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMD3borrVs
girlfriend, Hyo-rin. Well, this is a surprise. I never thought I would 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2rGftku3HM
ever meet Hyo-rin again. Well, not today when I'm about to sing a song 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKoIyeQ8AW
and I was so nervous.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtK2l3fWmxB
"Here she is," said Lee,1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiGTYqqNZmN
turning to face Taeyang and Hyo-rin. "I've tried to calm her down but 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHl1Q782uRC
she can't stop pacing up and down like an ant. Maybe she will listen to 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSO0MoiJ7T6
you, Tae."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHMcbx7lVC
I frowned at Lee and I 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6K2QejA0h
wanted to snap at her but I brushed it off. She hadn't even made an 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVfJgxkmLnS
effort to try and calm me down. She had left me all alone. What a 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbgdX22SsHt
friend.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWrtFhEBvDr
"Hi, Tae," I said and walked over to Hyo-rin and gave her a hug.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHzq7z7cSeS
"I never thought I would see you again," I said to Hyo-rin with a smile after I hugged her.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFCfb493mTn
"I told Taeyang that I 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR5JboU2uvx
wanted to see you," said Hyo-rin. "Looks like I decided to come and see 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaeqs4U9G9W
you at the right time when you're about to sing the song."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMxlgKPvIq
"Our manager called me 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiSWayyoudh
to come to the studio and listen to the song," said Taeyang, answering 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW94RlcQUR8
the puzzled look on my face. "Hyo-rin came to see me and heard my 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWytRZFm6Z
conversation on the phone. That's why she wanted to come and see you."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66CEJa8Xz1
"Thanks," I said. "Maybe with you guys around I might just calm down a little bit."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2QpIpqvwT
"I'll go and check on the managers and see what's taking them so long," said Lee as she started to head out of the room.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVCZxWCmemT
I wanted to call out to her and tell her to let it be. I didn't want our managers here just yet. But she had already left.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsJc5gs8Xga
"So, where are the others?" Hyo-rin asked as she took a seat on the comfortable leather couch and Taeyang followed.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhJcWY1G51
"They left for Paris," I answered. I was still standing with my arms folded.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXDcTxi86na
"Oh, they left with GD," said Taeyang. "He told me last night."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv9Lvx2zAum
"Ya, these guys are having a ton of fun right now," I said as I looked at my fingers.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIsObDyCJt
"But how come you didn't go with them?" Hyo-rin asked.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFeVPlrqA8
"I had the song to finish up. Trust me, it wasn't easy. But I had help before they could leave for Paris."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWvZVUCyWt
"Looks like you're always the one stuck here working hard while the others go out and have fun."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfComjBToK4
"Ya. Looks like it." I smiled slightly.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIQMQTVDFtE
"You managed to finish the song?" Taeyang asked.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNn6KCGLqv2
"I did. Want to take a look at the lyrics?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvoudsNVxKH
"Sure."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9zknaV9FM0
I gave Taeyang my 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm4iyYuUDYr
notebook and with Hyo-rin beside him, they looked at the lyrics 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoTxh86CePt
together. I couldn't help but smile at the two of them. They looked so 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9JPgNPXEX
cute together.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfI75mqZV9H
"I can't wait for you to sing the song for us," said Hyo-rin as she looked at me. "The lyrics sound really good."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7oaE4Lg9Kk
"Thanks. I was singing 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡitJv0gDIjo
the song while playing the guitar the whole night. I had to make it work1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK8Ngvg0Yxb
on the second verse and since the song is mixed with English and 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9JjviaFmRE
Korean, I just had to make it perfect."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjN1G8OFJK
"You can read Korean?" Hyo-rin asked.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWwBrlP89N
"Well...not really," I 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWwQDA619CB
said shrugging my shoulders. "I had to learn the Korean alphabet and the1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe22zxnVYD6
vowels. And with GD and TOP's help yesterday, I was fine with it."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXfesFQRZy
"Wow. Pretty smart," said Hyo-rin with a smile on her face.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjckNjlRlw3
"Sam is totally smart," said Taeyang. "And this song is going to be a huge hit."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKkrqFC7dp3
I couldn't help but smile at their sweet compliments. That made me forget about my fear. For now.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJUBzDeTCRB
The door suddenly flew open and Seungri and Daesung came in. Seungri rushed to hug me when he first saw me.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAmS0ytviUz
"Hey, I missed you so much," said Seungri.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgU2K8bO2Az
"Ya, me too," I said as I tried to breathe. Seungri always hugged me so tight.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqIHGBpjphy
"Hey, Sam," said Daesung as he came over to hug me.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKG9gqmMOCE
"Hi," I blushed when we hugged and I smiled like a fool.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhDGeGKxw7
"So, when do we hear the song?" Seungri asked, looking so excited.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXqJHo61GV
Before I could reply, a voice came at the door. Yang Hyun-suk's voice.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1O6kAJj6Lr
"Right now."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhNtv3GJXT
We all turned towards 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSuoYI0qNF
the door. Yang Hyun-suk, Collins, Lee and one of YG's music producers 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdb1FeOS5WR
came in. This was it. I couldn't help but feel my palms get so sweaty.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWunfOsnqY
When everyone got 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDhj0UvN8Y
settled onto the couch, I sat facing them sitting on a long stool and 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjinUQQPu1c
holding the guitar. I looked on at the others and all I wanted was to 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZReTq4FRp
run out of the room.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkDqHCJWVD
"We're ready when you're," said Yang Hyun-suk.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIFJ8FjcnSx
I nodded my head and my 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KmhhUybi1
heart couldn't stop beating so hard. I tried to settle properly with the1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRFMAjmwHES
guitar on my lap, but it felt so heavy like it was the first time when I1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFD1W8PYHL6
ever got to play it.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDabFnefLWF
I felt a break of sweat 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjaHHpC4c2B
would start to appear on my forehead. I blew out a puff of air and 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrpPkNbxnw
stared at the audience. Daesung gave me an encouraging smile and I 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4K912twVP
slightly smiled back. I relaxed myself for a bit and closed my eyes as I1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKaF3xeDMk
strung the strings on the guitar.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxbFIHxoM4a
I started to sing as I 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK42YzfPnG1
played the instrument. My fear soon left me as I sang. It was going well1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvRCJiLi5M
so far. Then I came to the second verse where most of the lyrics were 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrusFUUHqAx
in Korean. I thought I would stumble and say something wrong but I 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPLy6KHiRiv
didn't. Well, I hope so.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKnzXbw816
As soon as I was done 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs7emrv6vzF
singing the whole song, I looked up at everyone. I had been trying to 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADwvbkaLDO
avoid their gaze the whole time so that I wouldn't really mess up with 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwCbUvcmUj
the song. I did get a few glances of their faces here and there, but I 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WzUvbZnCR
was staring above their heads the whole time and closing my eyes. I just1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhVSdJB5ys
hoped they liked it.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiHN8YiZqF7
The studio was still 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwtcIVIvMT
quiet. No one had said a word and I got scared. Wasn't it good enough? 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡElTKlaUnYk
Why weren't they saying anything? I looked on at Yang Hyun-suk and he 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIYAYsT1TI
had a grim look on his face. Oh, no.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4mPXtg7js
Yang Hyun-suk cleared 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHTGe1BTaOR
his throat. I knew he was going to speak first. Yikes! Not him. I would 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxNK5fvkyl
rather he said what he wanted to say last. I crossed my fingers.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDGuSzcyCFv
"Well, Sam," started Yang Hyun-suk. "The song is really....."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2jm0qrUTnY
This was it. The hammer 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLbx7EwgFyp
blow to my career. I wanted to close my eyes as I waited for any hurtful1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJ12L2L7cc
word ready to come out of his mouth. I knew it was going to sting.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHruUXMKMOe
"....incredible."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡveXAZbe8AH
I opened my eyes and I 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYnfwPt06E
couldn't believe that word just came out of his mouth. I looked up at 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzcijyusd51
him and he started to clap his hands. The others followed. There was a 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZslZdvPU9
round of applause in the room and I couldn't help but smile to myself. 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZMYjK6Uua
It was such a relief. I could finally breathe.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFybePqceB
"I've to admit, when 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSPcW0x8a9y
Collins told me that the song was good, I didn't believe him," said Yang1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76yLfxkIPc
Hyun-suk, as he stood up from the couch. "It's just incredible."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGKxJOLmvo
"Thank you," I said as I bowed my head.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtl8Axvpzwl
"You better start working on it," said Yang Hyun-suk. "Today."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wg8i8x3Lo
"We sure will," said Taeyang as he came up to me. "That was mind blowing, Sam."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9VntvEdt6
"Thanks," I said as I jumped off the stool. "I hope my Korean was okay."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqidV5GvrE
"Are you kidding me? You sounded amazing," said Seungri.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcR2C4aMJaD
"I agree," said Hyo-rin. "You sung in Korean like you've known that language your whole life."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYIYsqbiibp
I couldn't stop smiling 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi4D05MlDB6
at the others. I kept on receiving praises from the others including 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubjMR5QMJ5
Daesung who said that I had such a beautiful golden voice. I blushed and1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbOuAe2Pp5j
told him that wasn't true. To me, there was a big difference between a 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmnisAU0ArA
good voice and a golden one.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYjEmyViEH
Immediately our managers1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC2wojKGElI
left with Lee, we went over to join the music producer by the audio 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcci8jd5VOr
engines and the multi track console. Above the console was a huge window1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXIXT2IlzUk
that showed the live room where we the artists sing and play any 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnJay0Nz88W
musical instruments.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl7kkAcTai8
This was always the hard1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9iieWSnrMZ
part of producing a track. Making the melodies and to find the right 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOeAFEzu8zq
tune for the song. I still had the tune of the song stuck in my head. 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtn04aqEe2g
But it was going to be difficult to make it sound right now that we had 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ994mBhr4xz
to use auto tunes and electric beats.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67wBeV8pZN
An hour had passed and I1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaliT9sUFxf
was already feeling so tired. Making the soundtrack was so hard. And 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUmsq5UOMh
this time, I got so tired so quickly. Must be that I really didn't have 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡecPOGXXHIh
enough sleep last night. I was having a whole lot of fun with Daesung, 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAtLrvgiSmq
Seungri and Taeyang around. I admired Hyo-rin who sat leisurely on the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLeGpLYDFxq
couch and would come up and join us whenever she felt like it.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB5uihHaqO1
"It's been an hour and I1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv9hB1RAYQS
already feel so tired," I mumbled as I leaned by head backward as I sat1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY72SlbhtIO
on a chair next to the music producer. "This is so hard."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfpLEwobSi
"Mind if I give you a massage?" Seungri asked as he came to stand behind me.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2DKPlimR3F
"No. I wonder what's wrong with you sometimes," I said as I rubbed my neck. "I don't need a massage."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14cLKuUzvp
"Trust me, you're so 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXid8vpmh1l
tense," said Seungri as he laid his hands gently on my shoulders. 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsEjsEr8oeM
"You've been working too hard. You definitely need a massage."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCvaRHsALuE
"No, Seungri." I tried to brush Seungri's hands away but he didn't budge.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZjYHUKGAqF
"Come on, Sam," said Hyo-rin, looking up from her phone. "Just let him massage you. The maknae always gets what he wants."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0k3zqmQFrO
"Oh, please." I rolled my eyes. "I never let Daniel do whatever he wants. Why should I let Seungri?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK5m2yEq0sQ
"Sam's right. And besides, Seungri can't give a proper massage," said Daesung.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5XGW2uZ8W
"Yes, I do!" Seungri snapped at Daesung.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxAUNtYuD4
"No you don't!" Daesung snapped back.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbw0Jftl4P2
"I'm not going to talk about it," said Seungri as he started to relax my muscles on my shoulders.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHicHEgZ4eV
"Mmmm." I murmured in 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ZOcLjxupk
pleasure as I smiled and closed my eyes. I could feel my body relax. 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXBKOgdWeZ
"You're really good, Seungri. I might just hire you as my personal 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsDtf9eJm0S
masseur."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KMcEoyNrW
"Thank you. I would definitely be your personal masseur."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpyrg61Czig
I heard Daesung mutter to himself and I smiled. Looks like someone was jealous.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQoGEDedAk
The music producer soon 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQSU0UlMsW
decided to take a break and he left. We made the studio more like our 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6OaX0Q7xVb
own crib. We sat by the couch chatting and laughing. I was even playing 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡapfiXeXTA3
with the guitar and we were singing some random songs together. It was 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbddl8hMI7
so much fun. Lee came in with our lunch and afterwards we were back to 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYL95DMQuYe
recording the track.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCohZC37fC
We spent another two hours recording, when Collins came into the room.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5A5yWsEb6m
"Hey, Collins," I said as I turned to look at him, removing the headphones from my ears.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDWPmv1jtvV
"I want you guys to do me a favour," said Collins.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2IgfaB9qBf
"What is it?" Taeyang asked as he also turned around to look at Collins.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn0Fcc6UVhu
"Zoey and the others will be coming later on in the evening, so I want you guys to go and pick them up."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ayvoVSbjW
I raised my eyebrow at Collins. "Why don't you do it? I mean, it's never a big deal for you, right?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡan78I7wcx3
"I'm busy, Sam. So I was1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAtCfvSUdBV
thinking that you guys should do it. It will be good for you guys to 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8Dyh1tO9N
catch up with all that's happened in Paris."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7ISTq0139
"Let me guess, you're 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmEKoqmiH4d
avoiding all the talking and yapping from Zoey." Daesung and Seungri 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZicscJ6rZC
were snickering and I couldn't help but smile.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6O8BsoC1Rq
"You know me so well." Collins smirked. "But also it's because I have some important work to do."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJyL1Zc1xR8
Something told me his 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUDAoeRGCQ
important work had something to do with what he talked about this 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ44L5o0SBBr
morning. I dared not try to ask because he would brush me off like he 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV5LEFXrDrH
always does.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwxc1BJtaa
"Don't worry about it," said Daesung. "We will go and pick them up."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyx9ffWWTP
"Thanks, guys," said Collins and he left the room.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwoa3SIVBRB
It was late in the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvmrTvX0Vz
afternoon and I was as tired as hell. I was leaning my head on the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsEW0Zo7TP9
console, careful not to mess around with the buttons and all. I had my 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKI62l521pu
eyes closed and I could slowly feel myself drifting away to sleep. 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTJQA7MLHc
Taeyang pulled up the headphones from my ears and that made me sit up.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ2FQ4eLAbF
"What did I miss?" I asked, sounding drowsy and rubbing my eyes, when I knew nothing much had happened.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGvZV77hp4
"Nothing. You just dosed off for a few seconds," said Taeyang.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2jKPnCpBuf
I looked beside him and I1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz75wDS8M1n
realised Daesung and Seungri weren't on their seats. I looked behind 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASxQT3ssZQ
and I saw them on the couch with Hyo-rin looking a little tired. The 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3NUpDX91vb
music producer had already left the room and I had taken the liberty of 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtepDDXT5p7
leaning my head on the console.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp0jbIZE5sP
"I always hate this part1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQunfpBq2G
of making a music track. As much as I love producing music, it gets me 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZqsyDZlX6
so worked up and tired," I said as I leaned my head back onto the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvRCZSByjDZ
console.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUuvAhiO5C
"Ya, I understand you," said Taeyang. "I wonder what time these guys will get back."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSf2ELiVfuS
"Didn't Collins say at night?" I asked through a muffled tone.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOVSJNLbzcP
"I wonder what time."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFS9QEyVjb
"Wait." I pushed my head1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0wnB2mJ6x
upwards and felt like my head was spinning out of control. I was still 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9f7N3AqKq
feeling sleepy and I had to hold my head for a while as though I was 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzHdloIu9yk
drunk and the world around me was spinning.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJVXNtuOmN
"Whoa! Are you okay, Sam?" Hyo-rin asked as she came over.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMUsbGDwSJ2
"Ya, I'm fine. Just tired." I pulled out my phone out of my pocket and decided to call Collins.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwT4IW09tF
"You know, if you're tired you shouldn't come with us to the airport," said Daesung. "You look really tired."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUGcJkEjiS
"I didn't sleep well 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGlg1Gk4Qz
last night," I said as I rubbed my eyes. The phone screen was all 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFVv7DPx0FE
blurring. "I stayed up all night and slept on the floor."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezztPjXRTs
"Ya, you better not come with us, my little panda," said Seungri. "You need a whole lot of rest."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6i26DTzUv7
"You're right." I soon 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMvVOjjPwzR
dialled Collins number and asked him what time the plane would actually 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZL9E0sDh9r
arrive and that I wouldn't be able to go.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfynAfDwm6
"He said they might come at nine in the evening," I said when I cut the call. I was so sleepy I felt like I couldn't stand up.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5EQWVGwtC0
"Well, since we are all done here, you can go back to the hotel and rest," said Taeyang. "We will take you."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8JBAwhOz3
"Alright. Thanks."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjArL0gNaUR
"I'm coming too," said Daesung.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfeGBk5LIHF
"And so will I," said Seungri.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuYWF9Lhxda
"Guys, it's fine. Taeyang and Hyo-rin will take me," I said with a small smile on my face as I faced Seungri and Daesung.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCllCgUaN4X
Immediately I left the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡun80MjvlYe
studio with Taeyang and Hyo-rin, Hyo-rin couldn't help but say, "was it 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkpYNBO5aIX
just me or Daesung and Seungri were fighting over you?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqFEghHAp3
"Pfft! Fighting over me? How?" I asked trying my best not to smile through my tired face.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZR48wC9Pn
"Well, the time Seungri was massaging you, Daesung was totally jealous," Hyo-rin said. "What do you think, Tae?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9bHzSrUE8
"Well, I think they were just playing around," said Taeyang as we entered the elevator.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhwy1HsmnBz
Phew! Taeyang hadn't 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8TmasU1zjq
noticed or else he would have agreed with Hyo-rin. But anyway, I was 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ93LUmX2ZQc
tired and was in no state of talking about who liked me or not.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DhUgTJ2cs
The next thing I 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡskgzLQtQo7
remember was lying on my comfy pillows back at the hotel and my eyes 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzsTnVa55Vj
roll back.I covered myself with a blanket and I felt like I was sleeping1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5lZ8v9k75O
on clouds, slowly drifting to sleep.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Uyg769EtE
I woke up by the sound 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzQpHDL9l7
of my phone ringing and I squinted after I opened my eyes and closed 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRv1apbH0a
them again. I murmured as I tried to look for my phone. My arm moved 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNzGUpFUzQT
here and there on the bed and I couldn't remember where I had put my 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3nDaBACkW3
phone. I was too lazy to even open my eyes to look for it.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEt42Wj8bpo
I reached out for the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsWbTYo2PWz
drawer beside the bed and as I fumbled on the surface looking for the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhaP2eWpXXo
phone, I heard someone come in the room and before I could open my eyes,1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9nXIYJNUXD
I felt something in the palm of my hand. Was that my phone?1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP3H5ZnsBQw
I fully opened my eyes and indeed, the phone was in my hand. I looked up and Lee was the looking down at me.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4GSNat0Qb
"How did you know I needed my phone?" I asked.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH2aV86zWiw
"I could hear it ringing1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Pvu3O8Hs3
and I was just passing by your room. Thought you would still be asleep 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡczab6PG9QC
but when I came in you were struggling to find it," Lee answered.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhRc5fUcSZa
"Thanks," I said as I 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOREah6Owzi
sat up on the bed. My phone had stopped ringing and I had to wait till I1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtafloALXh
could let my eyes adjust to see who had called.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKLl86AJzNP
"I hope this is the last time you ever stay up all night," said Lee. "You looked really tired when you came back."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOqqZGa12hH
"You know I will keep on doing it time and again," I said as I looked at my phone. I had two missed calls.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNAwn20g9Mh
"Never mind. I'll order supper. You must be hungry."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9HSXEegxx
"Thanks. I'll be out in a minute."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cqQTZ0mEb
Lee left the room and I 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2OsSA3c7w9
went on to look at my phone. I had missed calls from Zoey, and this was 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXNTGdAuKh
just 9:30 PM. They must have already landed.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQc3Bh1Lmx
"Hey, Lee," I called out to Lee as I found her watching a Korean drama series holding a bowl of popcorn. "Is Collins around?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4eXgoFvdO
"No," Lee answered, putting popcorn in her mouth.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSYcOZhmVIb
I joined her on the couch and took a handful of popcorn from the bowl. "Did he tell you where he went?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRa8vzoKe4P
"No. But I bet it's got to do with what he told us this morning."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfvZRKtLAP6
"Of course." I rolled my eyes. "I should have known. Are you watching Boys Over Flowers?" I pointed at the TV screen.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAi5J1Z41GQ
"Yes, it is. Your supper is on the table. Go get your plate and come over and sit. This series is so awesome."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡauRhxvns8R
I dashed over to the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjvuAv5luLN
dining table where there was a plate of spaghetti and meatballs. I 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbsaEBbXjlS
quickly dashed back to the couch and the two of us watched the series.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7F4iMzRKys
It was now 10 PM and 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuoVArPiLy8
Zoey and the others still hadn't arrived. I looked at my phone to see if1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsE8j5y3V7
there were any messages or missed calls but nothing. I wonder where 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6HSwXVnVC
they were right now.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMr7TtZnrg
"Hey, what's wrong?" Lee asked as she looked at me. The episode had ended and a commercial came up.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy5G5XuBzJI
"Nothing. I was wondering why these guys are not back yet."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiX7Bo8dFIv
"Who knows. I just hope they didn't get into any trouble, even on the road." Lee laughed.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZRQERAGCQ
"I hope not. After what happened at Caribbean Bay, I don't think they would want to go through something like that again."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjlo8NK1N7
"Why? You don't want to help them out again?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDzrKZC9uu
"Nope. I already had my own share of getting those guys out of trouble."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOi7dHeI8xi
"True."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhmLTn2qNUM
We soon heard the elevator doors opening and we both got up from the couch to the hallway to see who had arrived.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkZGbYnsKS
Two bell boys came out 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGsY9ijiqW
of the elevator first and I was confused until I saw they were bringing 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlzFSd8XGy
in boxes and wrapped packages. Lee and I looked at each other.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡib2UybnaAt
"Zoey." We both said at the same time.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtbpo8eCTz
There were so many gift 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacWkJRamJd
boxes and packages from Paris, Lee and I had to help out with the bell 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjZgsMd0Jdp
boys with bringing everything in. Some of the boxes also had to come 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSj3eq58bX
into the lounge. I was glad Collins wasn't here yet. He was going to be 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9H8B7JJKmX
so pissed.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK8ELMD5mky
"Where is Zoey?" I asked one of the bell boys as we put in some boxes in the lounge.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0w6Ggx8rW
"They are downstairs," he answered.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ44yWA1I3jy
After we were done putting in the packages, Lee and I followed the bell boys into the elevator heading to the ground floor.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0o7HgiFPA
When the doors flew 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgXga8dmKX
open, I saw the Toxins and BigBang in the lobby all indulged in some 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcsszmIXO3t
conversation. Even Hyo-rin was there. They didn't seem to notice Lee and1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcMRthXneby
I until Daniel looked towards the elevator.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6u8962iuU8
"Sam! Lee!" Daniel exclaimed and he ran towards me.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dROZ1Kwh5
"Hey!" I was surprised when he came to hug me. "You've never come running towards me like this in a while."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6DLNPOgrz
"I just missed you," said Daniel. "You too, Lee."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5b3g1US2U
As Daniel hugged Lee, Mike came to hug me. I was even more surprised.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrjiezovdnw
"Guys, you've been away for a day and you're acting like you've been away for months," I said.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyPlL2OrM2i
"Paris was nice, but not without you, Sam," said Mike.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJpvCx4LpH
"Don't tell me Zoey was acting like a control freak," said Lee teasingly.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzp0IERRpiw
"Hey," Zoey came over to us. "I tried to be really reasonable this time around. Don't blame me."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzR5u4GKL3x
"We aren't blaming you for anything, Zoey," I said. "How was Paris?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5YAhvhL5jd
Zoey hugged me instead. "I missed you so much, my little kitty!"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMr98oMn0XO
I raised an eyebrow. 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOS6r3g6bqK
Something was definitely up this time. Christine also came to join in 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnSM7DfnaS
the hug. What did these guys do in Paris for them to behave like this?1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVJRnQWNh4
"Okay. Enough," I said as I shook off Zoey and Christine away from me. "Can someone please tell me why you're acting like this?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN6CyfRNZ0z
"Everyone just missed 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoejQaTzGAr
you. That's all," this time it was TOP who answered as he came towards 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPri5AtPgy3
me with his arms outstretched. "Aren't you also going to give me a hug?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbv2E6lkWk
I rolled my eyes at him,1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMHzy0D23c
feeling rather hilarious that he had asked for a hug. I took a few 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYyzs2Oi4Ek
steps towards him. I couldn't understand why I had a stupid smile on my 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkGS7gO9uY
face when I hugged him.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT7P8enSuBe
"I missed you too, TOP," I said after we broke away from each other.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡykCCjVCknc
"Wait! You missed TOP 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwClUYyoSUZ
but not us?" Zoey asked. "I'm so upset. After buying you all those gifts1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipHnbtdFJk
and you didn't miss me? I thought you were my best friend."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfre0Bv0GEO
I always loved it when 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNjeA00tLe0
Zoey acted like a jealous best friend. I turned to look at her with a 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ycNnQiTeP
smile and before I could reply, someone else did instead.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjTvOyF4koD
"Don't mind her, Zoey. Looks like she only cares about TOP instead of anyone else."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55EgKhD8UX
For a moment, that voice1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPS6UXg4ki
sent a chill down my spine and I didn't even want to turn around. I 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeR5IJsfC7G
clenched and unclenched my fists. His voice was so full of bitterness it1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡekYY5bOBx6
almost sent me into an outrage. I don't know why this time around, I 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSs8uCKcbRR
wasn't afraid or scared of what G-Dragon thought of me. I was tired that1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC7RZMpzykJ
he was still acting the same way he had left.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgsB5yE6F8Z
I was really confused. I1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQeldUhHpX
wasn't so clear why he was mad at me. And I hated the fact that I had 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4qqC1lTdrx
to think around in circles just to figure out what was wrong with him. 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlVS8qOv9m
This time it wasn't the jealousy he had for TOP. It felt way more 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQabpR5c4C
personal and it had to do with me.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHYg0M2NXbj
I had no other choice 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb0GktWvtml
but to turn around to face him. I made sure that my face didn't reveal 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDaKWfypVA
how I truly felt. G-Dragon was standing right next to Hyo-rin and 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ999Wv5y2bf
Taeyang. I managed to put up a smile before I could say anything.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOhjW2fCas3
"Hi, GD. How was Paris?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn3NaFeeJ6Q
By the look on his face,1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUNoe4S7qXn
I bet he didn't expect me to greet him. I wasn't going to give him want1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtHy0iIqYEN
he wanted. If I had answered by talking back at him, things weren't 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQsKyINUJQ
going to end pretty tonight.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2dIHpjVEXO
"Paris was okay," G-Dragon answered. "I heard you managed to finish the song and played it to everyone today."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡekAsBFPXHF
"Ya, I did."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxgvcoAh3S
"The song will make you want to dance all day long," said Daesung.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnT5NqzEOca
"Ya, it's pretty awesome," said Seungri.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWl4j0NdOo5
"Can't wait to hear it,"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGrPhRtQEbn
said Daniel as he came to stand beside me and nudge me by the shoulder.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxyaIBUqUF
"You should give us a preview when we go upstairs."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4HwjygBsv0
"Anything for you, 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPi832zO2q
guys," I said as I pinched my brother's cheek. "That's how much I care 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKNWMDVKV6
about you. Unlike some people who think I don't miss them." I turned to 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAejGNpIWVi
look at Zoey.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXIOSPJiFLN
"Don't mind her," said Christine. "You just know how she is."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwAJjf6yu7
"You guys better go and rest," said Taeyang. "We have a busy day tomorrow."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEa5vENoP3X
"Okay, we better go then," said Seungri. "See you guys tomorrow."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdNUmp7Wjk
After saying bye to each other, we all went our separate ways.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡndMMRy4NI7
"You know Collins is 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEGaNlSRdt
going to kill you, right? With all those gifts you came with," I said to1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9XeHW9FFUq
Zoey and the others as we were all in the elevator going up to our 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLuUTVzISFq
floor.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6c1fnmrfs
"Don't worry, we also got a few presents for him too," said Mike.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0IDiMqphrK
"And you think bringing him gifts will help?" Lee asked. "You guys are in a lot of trouble."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsX0Hfs2YI
"This won't be the first time," said Zoey. "I mean, we're always in trouble no matter the cause."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtB8cU2coBP
I looked at Zoey and wondered why she would say that. Did they have a little problem in Paris? I hope not.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡulrQS26B0Z
"We better sort out all 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpUCR6M17B0
the gifts before Collins gets here. You don't want to get on his bad 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlBsmUBYi7
side, like you usually do," I said as we got out of the elevator on our 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVSMZfStjgN
floor.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmb14yduTXN
Sorting out all the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwhrVA7lrY
packages and gifts took a whole lot of time than I had expected. The 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwEiIDbWTeH
gifts in the hall and also in the lounge were just too many. These guys 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ114eXR2hQk
had really bought a lot of stuff.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5D3J7EuAg
The boys had brought a 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6cTlHm89Cf
handful of video games, including some expensive designer t-shirts and 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡutmOMZ73AT
jeans from Chanel. Expensive French cologne for men and watches with 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuz176lIyto
expensive designer shoes.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9TyZvTtA1
As for Zoey and 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBfnxhYtajY
Christine, well, you know what girls would like to buy if they ever go 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5SMsmuUU7
to Paris. Designer shoes and dresses. Expensive perfumes and Zoey also 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjqFK6v7tlS
bought along with her some expensive jewellery.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡin1i9u3aqg
"G-Dragon was helping me1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFw5UgPcFmm
out with picking the jewellery," said Zoey when she showed us a pretty 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfsSslGL7V
gold necklace with matching gold earrings.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwEB9xamP7V
"Wow, very pretty," said Lee as she looked at the jewellery.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPrJGgidTl
"Ya, very pretty," I said dully, looking at it briefly.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh46NzGCJ0J
We were sitting on the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JqjAqjIpe
floor in the lounge sorting out the gifts. The ladies were huddled up in1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71B9daxW7y
one circle while the boys were next to us also sorting out their own 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsm5grzz7yM
stuff with Collins' too.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVbUe2zjxgC
"We also bought a beautiful necklace for you too," said Christine looking over the boxes behind her. "Where is it?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOVsyzBOu7
I was also searching for any jewellery box behind me when I stumbled over a box of Lindtt chocolates.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfE2E8qjHr
"Yum, is this for me?" I asked as I got the box and looked greedily at it.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXcr4jIUFh
"Hey! It's for all of us," Zoey warned. "I know you love chocolates, but you don't have to be so selfish."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vU9c2irOF
"Since when have I ever been selfish?" I asked, as I opened the box.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDvSpakw4yr
"Okay, you've never been selfish. But when it comes to chocolates...."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpxJQyg2Sf
"'But when it comes to chocolates.....'" I mimicked her. "At least I know how to share."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWsg2h30qU
I distributed the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoaQjrAJE8e
chocolates to everyone. Lee was trying on a pair of heels which looked 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTM0K8EoMzV
so good on her while Zoey kept on looking for the jewellery box which 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeWPGA8GI0h
was meant for me.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMmNadwIBYJ
"Where is it?" Zoey muttered to herself as she looked at the other packages on the floor.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡooy80FNYy6
"Don't worry about it," I said as I walked over to her. "We will find it tomorrow. We can't go through all these right now."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGqEdOnyjO
"Ya, you're right," said Zoey. She had a gloomy look on her face. I could tell that she had bought that gift with lots of love.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMinzzoZWlJ
"But we better pack up some of these stuff," said Lee. "This place is in a mess and Collins might....."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhwauZ1ALD
When Lee just mentioned his name, the sound of the elevator doors opening was heard. Collins was here!1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpm9c5C28F1
For a moment, time 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3PN0xyaTix
seemed to have stopped and all of us in the lounge had stopped along 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL3Cjt7xCwJ
with it. We all had our mouths open, looking at each other in shock. We 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmpIAEy0KP5
hadn't finished packing up and Collins would freak out when he sees this1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgA5NuQeDG4
mess.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuse6ekStrB
"Hey, guys I'm here!" came Collins voice in the hall.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUH8FLbQbb7
"What are we going to do?" Mike whispered as he looked at me.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpEtqvSATek
"I don't know," I whispered. This was bad.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltAkYbJyaz
"Hide," Zoey whispered.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwn6QAw6lDB
For me, it kind of felt 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFv0cTUDrU
pointless to hide. But not for the other four Toxins. Zoey went to the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSqEMUMk09t
dining table and hid under the table. Christine, Mike and Daniel hid 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlvxQeDuJkC
behind the couch. Lee and I just stood there, static.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwz8ACNMrHC
When Collins came to the1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpu4tJWO5ZK
lounge, he stopped on his tracks. He was obviously trying to take 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGLX8EOFWB
everything in. His mouth was slightly open, trying to say something, but1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcMjgnGTcFf
he just couldn't.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhv3wugCl83
"Hey, Collins," I said.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsTkUh6YCJq
"What is all this?" Collins asked when as he took a step into the lounge, looking around.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmfcA5EOERv
"Christmas came a little early," said Lee, with a smile.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmktFBeWLei
Collins looked over at Lee and noticed the heels she was wearing. "Those look nice."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOs4FVGzTir
"Thanks."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7bJrGhqrx
"Where are they?" Collins turned to look at me.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3MGaj2n3n
"Who?" I asked.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwmyxMgg4QT
"You know who I'm talking about."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5dtdeEY5o
"If you're talking about Santa's little helpers, they left a while ago." I said as I folded my arms.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmleJnhehrU
"Santa's little helpers, alright," said Collins as he carefully walked around, avoiding to step on anything.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIsDBWbfVO1
Collins went over to the1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBw83LcmRz
dining table. There were a few gifts on the table and down on the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZ8GJL1Csq
floor. Collins moved the presents down on the floor and Zoey was beaming1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0FhSQXTa6
up at him.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnzEdG70UD
"Hey, Collins! Looks like you found one elf who stayed behind," said Zoey, beaming up at him.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhdr3JKSiav
"Where are the others?" Collins asked.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXIXJivWGs
Christine, Daniel and Mike came out from behind the couch and they all said, "hey, Collins!"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJ7FogfREZ
"Guys, what is all this?" Collins said as he looked around the lounge.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRlo4UKB2fn
"Gifts from Paris," said Zoey.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVCVcv6tB2l
"But why did you get all this stuff? I hope you didn't use your credit cards."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB6FlIe6hLh
"Well..." Mike looked down at his feet.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWRuui64SQN
"Okay, great." Collins looked worn out if not frustrated. "I hope you didn't finish up all the money in your accounts."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMqMFjOIZJ
"I doubt it," said Daniel. "We made sure to be careful with what we were buying."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCb8IFb2GUZ
"Ya, most of the stuff weren't bought by us, you know? If it came to the designer clothes, it was all from Chanel," said Zoey.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG0mIz2TIk2
"I'll know for myself when I get to see your bank accounts," said Collins.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPXRZHl1xBA
"Here, we brought you an1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJAIFxEe6Qd
expensive watch too," said Daniel as he gave Collins a fancy looking 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDw12zNCcuT
box. A watch from Rolex. It was definitely expensive.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPuVRwpoKf
"That's because you're the best manager ever," said Christine.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKCBwpJx5n
"Thanks," said Collins, 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAnKWXKKkjt
as he looked at the watch, looking rather impressed. "Do me a favour and1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvyCJlnTTu9
finish clearing up all this. And also bring my gifts to my room. Okay?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJ7v2x8HS5
Collins smiled at the rest of us and left the lounge.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKtQDV8gKAP
"Looks like he isn't really upset," said Lee. "He would have blown a big fuse already."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPvCzNsmm2b
Lee was right. Collins 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlvMkbhZwDX
wasn't really upset, but that smile he gave us before he left, made me 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHEqtxJGmy
realise something. He might be upset, but I felt like he had already 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdTKLLHdoyE
arranged something to get back at us. And why not that which he and Yang1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡduV4Hw2y90
Hyun-suk have planned for us? That for me would be the perfect payback.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡugTPLGhuPU
That's if it is that bad enough to stun us all.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhqnSKDS9j
"Okay, people, let's get done with this," said Zoey. "It's almost close to midnight."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydp5UIYayJ
We continued sorting out1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3TtPLpyrK
everything and by midnight, the lounge had cleared up a little except a1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsDwBwgRG0C
few wrappers on the floor which we picked up and threw away in the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHqjIBTbQt
waste bin which was overflowing with wrappers and empty boxes. And I 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtmdn0iJn4Y
planned with the others to sing them the song tomorrow because it was 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNk5bjJhA9
already too late and we all needed to rest.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6bOLkXbUNJ
We hadn't managed to 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡekuOMMbDza
find the jewellery box with my necklace. Zoey thought maybe TOP or GD 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtFK2uyRJl
had it. I didn't like the thought that GD might have it. Getting it back1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ97zPQjf0bR
from him was going to be difficult, looking at our current situation of1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihD0tFq3To
course.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyuAu1hnpEA
When we were all done and had retired to our rooms, Zoey quickly pushed me into the room when I was just coming into the room.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRcOHduhmdR
"Zoey, what's wrong with you?" I asked when she made me sit on the bed.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2M7dSxbBO
Zoey went by the door and checked in the hall if there was anyone. Then she came back in and stood before me.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZ9A4U4zGe
"What is it, Zoey?" I asked. "What's so urgent?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4xW1kK018
"Nothing much," said Zoey. "I just needed you in the room."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpErRrksroA
I looked at her with an 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcIDwSpakKa
eyebrow raised. Something was definitely up and she looked like she was 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNzqJveKF8O
stuck in between telling me what was bothering her or not.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFEaeccaFr
"So, tell me what happened in Paris," I said as I took my Mr Panda into my arms. "How was the fashion show?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC2XciDlmht
"It was fine," Zoey replied as she walked to the closet to get her pyjamas.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVfOoyFIdM
"Fine?" I looked at 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcj26BP4Zso
Zoey's back and then I looked at Mr Panda then back at her again. 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BUwbm7wU4
"Knowing you, you would've said it was so exquisite or it was so 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgDLlDmvTt
awesome. What's happened to you? This isn't my best friend."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFj9Arvp2wD
"Nothing happened," said Zoey as she took out her pyjamas and came back to put them on the bed.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvG6h2GQmFV
"Tell me, please!" I 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoSq9hkB4MZ
begged. I even made Mr Panda on my lap beg as well putting his tiny cute1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwESH66yM3U
paws together. "Nothing is not an excuse. You look like you want to 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡez0o270n3J
tell me something. So tell me!"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJ9HQFTRGs
"Keep your voice down!" Zoey snapped at me as she tried to cover my mouth but I slapped her hand away.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBrQEl5ZXMf
"Then what's wrong, Zoey? Did something happen in Paris?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtXCcFtvis8
"Well, nothing much happened," said Zoey as she sat down on her bed and looked lost in thought.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdeVlt8KtBO
"Hello! Earth to Zoey!" I snapped my fingers in front of Zoey's face. "You look so lost. Please tell me what's bothering you."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuI9CHlZAYv
Zoey paused and looked at me for a few seconds. Then she slumped her shoulders and sighed. "Okay, I will tell you."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ6wDsqeao6
I felt really excited 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7pSc9gkxwF
like I was about to watch a blockbuster movie. I hugged Mr Panda close 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9dn5TIk3y7
to me. Ready for what's about to drop out of Zoey's mouth.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJABHzk5FYl
"I don't know how I 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8HdyaPGM3F
should tell you this," said Zoey as she played with her fingers and was 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj3oa0DvxAi
staring somewhere else. "But when we got to Paris, we went to the Eiffle1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJzxQpvXGG
Tower."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFrgAf6ukk
"Ya, I saw the picture. 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYOOls1CLn
So much for going to Paris without me," I muttered. "You know I have 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibqv15XxEn
always wanted to visit the Eiffle Tower."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyn1Kw40JFc
"Aren't you going to let me talk?" Zoey asked.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMLZY14KQ5
"Okay. Continue." I pressed my chin onto Mr Panda's head.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCInNwDR0rz
"So we got to the Tower and we were having a good time as usual." Zoey paused as she licked her lips. "Then something happened."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEO2VNww83K
"What?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE10IsHLGi5
"When we got to the top 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbAZ8QySIs
of the Eiffle Tower, we were enjoying the view and I was so caught up 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTwDi93p3j6
with looking at the bright lights of the city I didn't notice that the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDB1njWo8SI
others had left and it was just GD and I."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzCdbZoL2T5
My eyes grew wide. I 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpsngqBkOPt
knew where all this was going already. And before I could let my best 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4mhmssTM4u
friend share her magical moment herself, I blurted it out.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM5Nt01PEx3
"You two kissed."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAgai3VrjE
"What the...! Sam!" Zoey hit the bed with her hands. "How could you!"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjRyl0PEo9Q
"I'm sorry." I hissed and covered my mouth. That wasn't supposed to happen.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkS4pC26VKd
"Great! How did you know?" Zoey still looked pissed, but yet surprised.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjOrkC2Spz
"Well, you were in one 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTZazerdJt
of the most romantic cities in the world and you two were left alone, so1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaP8Yk3h87B
for me, that was a perfect romantic scene."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV1Vp6qRqbX
"Smart."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxNE2BRY08k
"Thanks. So, how was it?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOP8fZqTYah
Zoey smiled like a fool,1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeDicDt0AJP
now that the secret was out in the open. "It was so unexpected but yet 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCH23hdrVYl
it was so magical at the same time."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuo2XJ52PQq
I couldn't help but 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDrRBK4iEgf
smile. It's been a long time since she smiled like that. The last time 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTzcGJ57jpw
she did, it was back in high school when she was going out with the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHpIkd0IsU
hottest and yet popular guy in school and they kissed in front of 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmJih7FRWX
everyone at the prom.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE4yEFnjGjX
"Oh my gosh, Sam," said Zoey rubbing her cheeks. She was blushing. "I can't stop smiling to myself."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9E3oXCXMHI
"So you guys kissed, and then what?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlsIeIk3MNx
"Nothing really. We had to pretend in front of the others when we went down the Eiffle Tower like nothing had happened."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHyKeCN8je
"And? Anything else? 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUcqB0JdqE
What happened at the top of the Tower after you kissed?" I leaned 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSP8ZuHHXI2
forwards with Mr Panda also eager to hear.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPGU8oVbUo
"When we were on top of 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQX7amOhxI
the Tower, when we kissed, he told me he liked me and kept on saying the1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqim9Cf55sp
most sweetest words ever. How he had always liked me."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEiNESsexZ
Well that's a bummer. 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuzq0BhOTyq
But to be honest, I expected it. I remembered he had also said those 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqW7WqDH1g
words to me too. But that was when he was drunk. Could it be that he 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhxwmk0eVfb
really liked Zoey and not me?1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXvac5ZbAE
I brushed that off. Why 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhcJ883vnBq
should I even care? I knew from the very beginning that GD wasn't in his1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8lEeGjp2b
right state of mind when he told me he liked me. I didn't really get my1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoaMZL6fso4
hopes up with it.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjpjRMQXoAK
"I even told Christine," said Zoey. "I just hope you don't tell Collins."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc68eP5kM3m
"And why should I tell him?" I asked, shrugging my shoulders.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoDZok0a5uS
"Ya, you're right. And don't tell your brothers. They are going to make fun of me."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3b1hOtuDNd
"Telling my brothers is one thing I wouldn't do."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vkRULZGEd
"Thanks, Sam."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAh79bbBiz9
"Hey, what are best friends for? We better go to sleep. We might leave for YG tomorrow really early."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk4aK5fedte
"Okay." Zoey hopped on her bed like a little child and started to change into her pyjamas.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBs1mls8Ul4
I left Mr Panda on the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0b7Xe6yJG
bed and also went to the closet to get my pyjamas. When I changed, I 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4NBnww7NVC
quickly went into the bed covers and put Mr Panda right beside me. I had1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4SLVVp5bj
gotten used to the stuffed panda being around whenever I slept. I 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlMiM7seo3z
looked over at Zoey who was already in her bed covers.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg4BATZGG2p
"Good night, Zoey," I said to her with a smile.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAprE1HoHvw
"Good night," she replied. She turned to the other side to flip the switch beside the bed on the wall and the room went dark.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpDVna4RTi
I laid my head on the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjAis7WW55n
pillow and just as I closed my eyes, I could hear Zoey giggling to 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHRQMJrjk2d
herself. She was obviously texting G-Dragon on her phone and I couldn't 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrUioXAPXJ
blame her. She was so happy when she talked to me about kissing him on 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDdYP99siVE
the Eiffle Tower. And it was also probably a good thing that I had never1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZq0Yp58s15
told Zoey what happened on Friday when GD came in drunk and told me 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeM6NKGMdp8
that he liked me. I could only imagine what the whole scenario would 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZZ7qZS7YL
have been.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2SA8JiA0y
Zoey would have only 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTfXB81SxKv
felt guilty about it and would have confronted GD about playing the two 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8e6BdwOAUo
of us around. It wasn't like he kissed me anyway, so maybe I was a bit 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzoaP3Xgc2L
on the safe side. But it was still good that I didn't tell her anything.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡii6b8HRjXG
To be honest, I was happy for Zoey. And when I heard her giggling again, I realised that I wouldn't want to hurt her.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZA2ktT2UX
I pulled Mr Panda closer1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDvPcfbu3c
and cuddled him. I was soon drifting away into a deep sleep, eager for 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvugMsR2bRJ
what's to come when I woke up in the morning.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFrFXXqGBLA
***1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9J6aHaxuNa
I was given a round of 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvGNQNNNtfQ
applause when I finished singing the song. I was in the lounge with the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFTily4EGq5
Toxins and I stood before them as I sang the song. I didn't have a 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHhpfuqwu6M
guitar with me but I managed to sing it anyway.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm9GYAhAXaG
"The song is incredible," said Zoey. "I never thought it would be this good."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPddnoWoad5
"And your Korean is good too," said Christine.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMB3MuUO6Ib
"I can't wait to start working on the song," said Mike.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7KDEH6M8t
"Then you better eat 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUVjRSRvD3i
your breakfast," said Lee as she came in with the room service bringing 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt5lTZAqlpg
in our breakfast. "We have a long day ahead."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjI0zEr5X7
We went over to the dinning table and settled down. We were all having toast for breakfast.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQt0LFXspn
"I can't wait for us to 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuYAWDL0K6C
go to the studio," said Zoey happily as she jumped excitedly on her seat1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpz1O6BKDv
beside me. I could only tell why.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFjc1HiAKyZ
Christine who sat 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfy81AYcMF
opposite from Zoey coughed and I could tell that she just coughed out 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5oZk9BIJ3w
G-Dragon's name. Luckily, the boys hadn't even noticed. And by the look 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJOdxU7dvmZ
on Lee's face, sitting directly opposite me, she already knew about Zoey1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT4gkL4UEdx
and G-Dragon.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQMVsvbEGzW
When we were done 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8rcXziwic
eating, we headed downstairs and as usual, there were paparazzi, 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDFTWYBxtFP
reporters and fans too. We entered into the SUV and we arrived at YG.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbEWmIJY9As
"Hey, Sam," Zoey called out to me when we got out of the car. I turned to look at her.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslrLC12itw
"What is it, Zoey?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7AdZ9jvhYj
"Do I look okay? I mean, is my hair on point, my make up?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWoLBfzAMpD
Mike growled loudly behind us as he came out of the car with Daniel right behind him. "The drama queen is at it again."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs23nJAJxt1
"Can't you just zip up your mouth and let me worry about myself?" Zoey asked, rolling her eyes.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKl4b03vDj
"That's the problem," 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNxsFN1O1ZM
said Mike as he came to stand in front of Zoey. "Once you start acting 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpSeblV5QQK
like this, something is definitely up or you're just trying to impress 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6tGeYLu8qb
someone. You've been acting really weird ever since we got to Paris."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5tBdjYlBp
Mike turned away and 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0c17iRmuZx
headed straight for the entrance with Daniel. I could have sworn I saw 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAXCAIB4ca
him smirk before he walked away. Could it be that he might know 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡodyjBMVfF4
something?1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMOSIJnCfD
"Don't mind him," said Christine. "You know how these boys like to mock us. Let's go."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7vhQcd25x
We agreed with Christine1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDdWi81CVG
and we went into the YG building with Lee and Collins. We got to the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrqm246Admq
studio and I wasn't expecting the BigBang members to be there before us.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡahS0ena8d3
Finding them here earlier than us was a bit of a surprise.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgeYoqxVy0
"Hey, guys!" Zoey greeted everyone.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBUbM232a4F
"Hey, how are you," said G-Dragon as he came and gave her a hug. I bypassed them heading to the couch sitting next to Daesung.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgccPbyPDe
"Hey, are you alright?" Daesung asked.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0PdDYHuxbf
"Oh, I'm fine," I answered. "I slept a little late last night since these guys came with so many gifts."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRe4nDhJFdq
"I also feel like I 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZc40HyC5mA
didn't get enough sleep," said Christine as she came to sit beside me. 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFBvjSBVP5s
She was obviously trying to avoid the two love birds in the room. The 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9yUwM7dFUJ
two of them seem to be in a deep conversation at the moment.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5H7Zffp9K1
"Do you think we should 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHP6Ex0KfZM
start?" Seungri asked as he came to stand by the couch and also noticed 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5X0o3Tur2
how close Zoey and G-Dragon were.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡte3ohUY6lo
"What's up with them?" Mike asked as he stood in front of me with his arms folded.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVI3MSxbQF3
"Can't you see they are having a conversation?" Christine asked.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6afYzAFwU
"Well, I think we should start working on the song," said TOP who sat next to Daesung.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8tvnA8xiYR
"I think someone has to tell these guys," said Taeyang. "Sam? May you do the honours?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNjZdiVanK9
I looked over at Taeyang who sat at the far end of the couch with my eyebrow raised.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGRUvzomkhk
"You do it," I said. "Why should I?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMyNnEW0pcA
"Because everyone listens to you," said Daniel.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQBfNYq0mP
Everyone around me shook their heads. I sighed.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡexUQABnDYw
I stood up from the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVj6O7ZyWi
couch and I went over to the multi track console where I had left my 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Lgk9xdT0U
notebook yesterday. Zoey and G-Dragon were still indulged in their 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSPRW41GL1M
conversation.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDnrgMt5wr
When I went back, I 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLkr1RHKSI
signalled to the others who were standing to sit down. When everyone on 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuBka1L9Y43
the couch was settled, I cleared my throat so loud, hopeful that I 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHrXd6F0e4
caught Zoey and G-Dragon's attention.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMjJaBKdDqO
"Ahem! So, we have to agree on who will sing the first verse," I said as I looked at the notebook.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zAOi9gga3
"I was thinking, G-Dragon and Zoey could start," said Daniel, as loud as he could.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡewxbCXkYc0
"That's not really a bad idea." I nodded my head.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJe6OCSGTBK
"Hey, what's going on?" Zoey asked as she and G-Dragon turned to look at us.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuwCX9Xa6uO
"Oh, you guys better come here because we're dividing the lyrics amongst ourselves," I said as I turned to look at the two.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKFGczwM7IG
"You should have told us," said G-Dragon.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdxgMfcORTw
"Well, I didn't want to disturb you two. You looked really busy. And the two of you will be doing the first verse."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTRFOEnm5ho
G-Dragon gave me a weird1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsLAJ82bj9I
look and all I could do was smirk at him. My plan had worked to get 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJgM0BkKDt
their attention. I went back to looking at the lyrics while he and Zoey 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0zkKyOTScu
took their place on the couch.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNvH4U3Lo9
"Christine and Daesung, I1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lYdHP9woJ
think one of you could sing the bridge after the first verse and then 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjcqwMoixy7
the other on the second bridge after the second verse," I suggested.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6SJ7dr4fwJ
"Then you and I will sing the chorus," said Taeyang.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTdoxW71Na
"Ya, we will sing the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGXswonR1D
chorus," I said. "And Seungri and Daniel will sing the last verse. So, 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXY96hC2JbN
now that we are done with all this, let me just give you guys a preview 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsGIAq9uWKa
of the song and how its supposed to be laid out. I hope the music 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhRvvv1crKy
producer has the lyrics printed out."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSTnsN2lS6
"He brought in the printed lyrics for each of us this morning," said TOP, his eyes on the table behind me.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdUXaL7faVt
I looked behind me on the small table. I hadn't noticed the papers. I took them and gave each member a sheet.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5pWHhVoC1
Afterwards, I sang out the song so that everyone can have a layout on how it should be sung.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpyhJXQI68R
Then we all went over 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiyS9RIPy1L
the console so that everyone could listen to the instrumental the music 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvAdTL8NxF
producer had made with me and the others yesterday.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSpF04xcTu
"So, what do you think of the instrumental?" I asked after making them listen.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOvIu8e7hb
"So catchy," said Daniel. "I like it."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrT7q36DSfp
"Me too," said TOP.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoRE3Zunaz1
"Then, let's get started," said Daesung.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmyZZCWTg4e
"Wait, a minute," said G-Dragon and everyone turned to look at him.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOsm57ZmIXf
I didn't look up at him 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobitjo2KHv
though since I was the one seated at the console and everyone else stood1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZmVC6dec9
behind and beside me. All I did was just sit there and rub my forehead.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK9dBx4nZdp
Something told me he was going to say something I wasn't ready to hear.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8s9O8kl59
"What's wrong, GD?" Christine asked. "Is there something wrong?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3d5mTgo2zW
I started to relax my 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7WkhbDd1m
temples with my fingers and my elbows leaning on the console. G-Dragon 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo0b5Rnqflu
had paused for a while and I felt impatient.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgesocRdMq2
"The instrumental is okay and all, but I feel there is something missing."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡir23q5L0St
"What's missing?" I asked as I turned around on the chair to look at G-Dragon.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsF5Nyz2zVs
G-Dragon came to sit 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1fBfDkD5y
next to the chair beside me and I wondered what was running in his mind.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFWZZabIlj
The instrumental was just fine and it's not like we hadn't gone through1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxce3wApcjW
it with the music producer yesterday. I wondered what had gotten into 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQPyFn0svyR
him now. Everyone liked it. But what was wrong with it for him?1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxuWTKbRqgb
"I'll have to listen to this for a while and I'll tell what I think," said G-Dragon.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5tWxIgDlOJ
"Okay, suit yourself," I said as I backed away from the console dragging the chair behind me. I stood up.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXZYJHTyzy
G-Dragon got the headphones and at the same time, the music producer came in the room.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡras5fhgvSN
"So, should we start putting in the lyrics into the song?" the music producer asked.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKZc1YqcfR
"We can't because G-Dragon here thinks the tune and melodies need a little changing," I said.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAeg8HuP27U
"Really?" the music producer asked.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKz97FvW5qU
"Well, that's what he said," said Taeyang. "It all seems fine to me. I also don't see why it needs changing."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtuI19Jr64t
"Let's just see what he is going to come up with," I said as I folded my arms.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnpRHhzMfH
"Give him a chance, 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSPF11BUTw
Sam," said Zoey as she sat next to G-Dragon who kept on listening to the1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIflnaK3a1w
instrumental through the headphones. She also got another pair of 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVXPhTRFNW
headphones and put them on.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGO0pV9gnXW
"Okay, this is 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjIYnCTRGM
confusing," said the music producer looking at all of us. "Let me also 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJ9WdAwHui
join them and see what needs some changing."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQ85esVuQ2
I nodded and the music producer went over to join G-Dragon and Zoey.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPf3PUVGin
"So what should we do now?" Seungri asked.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhK1d8sA3AY
"Chill, I guess," said Mike.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcixLWO5s1h
The others looked at me 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZiiD5zhkfz
when I didn't say a word. They were all looking at me obviously thinking1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTIrjP8PKqY
I would come up with a better solution to all this just to pass time.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGQzPGHtJXU
"To be honest, I don't know what we should do," I replied, shrugging my shoulders.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiShMKSK5wA
"Why can't we just go through the song?" TOP asked.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ242pPnnPOv
"That's going to be a 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkjjAnj7rA
problem." I rubbed the back of my neck. "The tune might change a little 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG4hgGAZ26W
now that GD thinks it needs a little changing."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrB3ChEmGXD
"I doubt it," said Taeyang shaking his head. "We can still go through it. I don't think he can change the entire tune."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0zVvi2yCk
Something told me he might but I didn't want to scare anyone so I kept that thought to myself.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfycq49tFlM
"Okay let's go through the song," I said as everyone nodded their heads and sat on the couch and I went over to get the guitar.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvVAwSW8n5
I looked over at Zoey 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0LbNgsqCy1
and G-Dragon. I wondered if they would really change everything. I tried1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfxkRWJpjuR
to ignore the thought, and focused on the song.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPx7qp3ol8z
I put a stool in front 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiTOFK0W2Xe
of the others and I sat on it like I had yesterday. With the guitar in 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvH9J3QIShJ
my hands, I started to play and I sang the song. After I sang it, 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6JN4YDss8V
everyone admitted that the song was good and that made me realise about 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwaeCzuJzB4
what G-Dragon was up to. I tried not to look worried in front of the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBq2K6Hp7a
others.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCSVhZtgiG
"Now, that we know how the song is supposed to flow, let's all sing out our parts," I said. Everyone agreed.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyj2bK36uwm
Taeyang and I sung the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN38g2Znb4n
first verse since G-Dragon and Zoey were busy. Then Christine sung the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdyp3hJzc46
bridge, Taeyang and I sung the chorus. From that point, the song sounded1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfF2FWE7Fat
great and everyone cheered.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtXlJX68cV
"Wow, guys, this sounds awesome," said TOP.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLG66wo23KS
"Mind blowing if you ask me," said Mike. "I can't wait for the second verse."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNJN1qrtje
"Let's give it a go then," I said and I started to play the guitar.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8qIWKQfCX
TOP started to rap the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHCFKKGhFKF
second verse and then Mike followed suit. It was going on great. And 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡReR5DznoyT
while I played and the guys rapped everyone else on the couch was moving1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlLEryQpd8
to the flow of the tune. I smiled. Everyone was having a good time.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkcd5myzYU2
Daesung sung the bridge and then Taeyang and I sung the chorus again. This time even Christine joined in.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡblIjpITuEj
"I'm impressed," I said. "You guys really did well on the second verse."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf7R6aV4PNE
"Come on, now," said Seungri. "Daniel and I want to sing our part."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2RWxwmOxpL
"Okay, okay." I looked at Seungri with my hand raised to calm him down. "Before you eat me alive."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsTcahnQTeS
Daniel and Seungri sung 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76qW1hT1OA
the third verse beautifully, and coming to the bridge, Daesung and 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2KtUGIFfbN
Christine sung the bridge together. Taeyang and I sung the chorus. In 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI5H0OChgIN
the end we all sang the chorus together. When we were done, everyone 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeWhe8khTCi
clapped for themselves and cheered.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLtY8dQLfs
"That was lovely guys," I said as I smiled at the others.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvQCRJuiWa
"That sounds really good," came Yang Hyun-suk's voice behind me.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zy7VEwAEi
I almost fell off the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWUsIDzgPBi
stool when I heard his voice. I was so caught up with the song that I 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrNbBgZ2YD8
hadn't noticed Yang Hyun-suk come in the room. By the look on the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvLLCf1fJes
other's faces, they hadn't noticed him either.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLUwCQ3vx5M
We all stood and bowed our heads as Yang Hyun-suk came closer to us.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwkbUmLROqa
"I have to say, you all 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmIB2EeKeDi
sounded really good. The song is just perfect," said Yang Hyun-suk with a1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHR5s4paD62
smile. "Keep up the good work."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk05HXrwIKA
"Thank you," we all replied at the same time.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ggbtagNOI
"You're supposed to be in the live room recording the song," said Yang Hyun-suk. "Why aren't you doing so?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8oKx9b9T1c
No one said anything. We1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5yUkP0tyF
all looked at each other expecting the other to say something. Most 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNWGPgPkBi
eyes were on me though. I always hated it when I had to do all the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtns551WS8M
talking.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMmBDSpIkZ
"Umm, G-Dragon wanted to add a few things to the instrumental," I said, not looking at the manager in the eye.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG8j3COButK
"Add a few things or change things?" Yang Hyun-suk asked, sternly.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbfLgm0KgHD
That, I couldn't answer.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGThAd9SZUF
Looked like he also thought like I did. The only way to find out was to1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAnIDBtqMbt
listen to the instrumental ourselves.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡicY3FKXuPk
"He just said something was missing," said Taeyang.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQX11aoCI0
"Then where is he then? Why isn't he here?" Yang Hyun-suk asked.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0W2XcicHMg
"He's right-" I turned around to the console. He and Zoey weren't there.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxOogXGOw1H
"They were here a while ago," I said as I pointed at the audio machines and the multi track console.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡINkwNAihhb
"They?" Yang Hyun-suk asked.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsngx70sHif
"G-Dragon, Zoey and the music producer."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcEIDZtundN
The manager shook his head. He was obviously annoyed with all this.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ6GKiRMvwO
"I want them back here 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Pzx6wyIIt
right now," said Yang Hyun-suk. "I'll back in thirty minutes and if I 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWup0xyMmm
don't find them here, you better have a good answer for all of this."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnnybDpkrUj
I gulped as I felt the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkp2DbI9B2o
air in the room change. He was furious all right. He was more furious 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡprFp7JKUhY
because he feared that G-Dragon might change everything with the song. 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvbtg3hYUT
And we only had thirty minutes to find them or else we were toast.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOgVXcyMgZ
No one said anything 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdW8VyXP79
when Yang Hyun-suk left the studio. And this time, I was furious. I 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07q0hv0oB1
looked at the others and it looked like I wasn't the only one.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡebSR77sjSk
"Where could they have 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKIfReKRDfF
gone all of the sudden?" Christine asked, her voice sounded like it was 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZc0CQcXaGj
full of rage. "They were there the last time I checked."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ24qOUUgcQP
"They couldn't have gone far," said Daesung. "They must have been gone a few minutes."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCCHpQWumL5
"Maybe they went out for lunch," said Mike as he looked at his wrist watch. "It's almost close to lunch time."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9bBDzcZWR2
"They should have told us though," said Taeyang.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYTvwUFsgZZ
"Then we better start 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡta19DzHOEp
looking," I said. "I just hope they aren't out of the building or else 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXSDpHGR3rI
looking for them will be difficult."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWkUnrjt6j
We all agreed to split 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8GUQNoijQ
up and look for them given the little time we had. I went with Christine1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs9K4GsbGa5
and TOP looking around the other studio rooms, Mike and Daniel went 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSE7kB5Ct39
over to the dance studios. Taeyang, Seungri and Daesung went upstairs.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqayaKf579T
All the studio rooms 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xQdNXewuj
were empty, so I went with Christine and TOP downstairs and asked the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxlYf90cur
receptionist if she saw Zoey and G-Dragon go out.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxoYeMkJch
"The two of them walked out just a while ago," the receptionist answered.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4LTl2Itcez
I frowned and turned away from the receptionist while Christine asked, "how long ago was it?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFf6jHE3KZ4
"Almost fifteen minutes."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0UVgehZbK
"Try and call them, will you?" I asked TOP.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcD2Q8m7ORF
He nodded and pulled out1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDK1etIfNFd
his phone. At the same time, the elevator doors opened and my brothers 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmm1Vg81v2
walked out of it and came towards us.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9L1p2T4qCG
"Anything?" Daniel asked.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHblSnaZzCT
"They left the building," I answered with my hands on my hips. I looked over at TOP. "Have they picked up?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvLCL92GoaE
"GD's phone keeps ringing and he isn't picking up," said TOP, with his phone on his ear.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4p2bVZg4FF
"Let me try to call, Zoey," said Christine pulling out her phone.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXforKtKaKS
I looked at the time on my watch. We only had fifteen minutes and Yang Hyun-suk was going to kill us all if we didn't find them.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrib1FeSEm
"She isn't picking up either," said Christine.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsChKUfAr3Z
"Great, these guys are going to get us into trouble," said Mike as he scratched his head.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlNLljJcgS
"If they just went for lunch they are bound to show up," said TOP.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG50uHcMH2m
"Should we split up and look for them around town?" Daniel asked.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ryDhHW5GI
"Splitting up will be risky now that Yang Hyun-suk is on our necks," said Christine.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ldxrppCLW
I hadn't said a word 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0XZA6UpXD
when the elevator doors opened and Daesung came out. He had a really 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKnZxWLhlM8
worried look on his face. He rushed up to us and I also couldn't help 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDg4cCqoZEI
but worry.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡotAu8rtsZ4
"What is it, Daesung?" I asked. "Is there something wrong?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPo03j4YKm6
"We just met with the music producer upstairs," said Daesung. He shook his head. "You're not going to like this."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdGwNG1V7jn
Daesung motioned his 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBCKCxgClv
head towards the elevator. We followed him and we found ourselves back 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQO2W6psGFN
at the studio. Taeyang and Seungri were with the music producer.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMf2b9Sqx5
"Please tell me G-Dragon didn't just change the entire tune for the song?" I asked when we got in the studio.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnUA7cnlVm4
Taeyang and the music 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQk9hHX0Kj
producer looked at each other with blank looks on their faces then 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmDMx6DQgKE
looked back at me. Seungri was looking at me the whole time. I was so 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KTSYHLLxi
preoccupied in my mind, thinking of the worst, that I felt so confused 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSpcRG1irqB
and angry at the same time.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKXcEpruAyL
"It's best if you hear it for yourself," said Daesung.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNCPKgO9YP
I looked over at Daesung1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0HsV1KKl5c
and made my way to the console where the music producer had his laptop 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cpDgKuLlH
open for me. I sat down and preparing myself for the worst, I pressed 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgh7pAye5J
the play button.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdXGuA5YYBq
***1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNDX4s8hLw
"Where are they?" came Yang Hyun-suk's voice from the door.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFzCmTlPNPT
I came crushing back 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnZgz8vmsC
down to reality by the harsh sound of the manager's voice. I was on the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7OjGT6aBQ
couch with the rest of the others and I had been brooding for a while.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2JBk3mBHWx
I had so many mixed 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsyJwQZm4E5
feelings inside after listening to the instrumental G-Dragon had made. 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEROrex3F56
He had completely changed everything and that made me so upset. After 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7I6qZdfr1S
all the work I had put in with the others yesterday and this is what I 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPpVlz5c3L7
get in return? I was speechless. So were the others.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡanFo42XZC0
I could tell that the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUcOGvQmx1
others were as confused and wondering why G-Dragon had done all this. 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqEscH5a9YI
But I was confused with a mixture of rage. I worked so hard on that 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KPXhimnH5
track and I felt everything just went down the drain.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfzov7yDBy
"Isn't anyone going to answer me?" Yang Hyun-suk asked.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6T4oACCl5
"They aren't here," Daniel answered.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZjuQxbjJRL
"It looks like they had gone out for lunch," said Taeyang.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPY9lQV2vX6
"They went out without taking you guys along?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLM2W9jaqZ
I folded my arms and 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSpqOYVpoCc
huffed. It looked like they did, alright. And if they made sure as to 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFTBbZ4RL3I
come back here, I was going to skin them alive.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4rqdvQP6N
"Maybe they must have gone to order us some lunch as well," said Christine.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjL4VwEjBmb
"Well, they are taking a lot of time to get here," said Yang Hyun-suk. "What about the instrumental? Did they change anything?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV2MGBMMdZH
I could feel Christine who sat next to me stiffen by the question and I could imagine the others stiffen too.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohFDcPFPBI
"Well...eh," Mike started to talk but I intervened.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl3rGxtus7b
"No, we haven't heard it yet."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZEv1F2Skk
I could feel the others 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwV1faBEKX
turn to me with weird looks on their faces. I knew lying wasn't the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWR9hsbe7GZ
right thing to do at this moment, but the music producer's laptop wasn't1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOFH1KZalY
here and I had the USB drive where the instrumental was. And besides, 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDmHMlAyg79
Yang Hyun-suk was going to be furious. I had to know what the heck was 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡelc1X12sGg
going on in G-Dragon's mind before telling our managers anything.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjXfLp5KADf
"Oh, hopefully they haven't changed anything," said Yang Hyun-suk. "Call me when they get here."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJVp5tTTFs
"Okay." I nodded my head.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8DubDvTM3D
When Yang Hyun-suk left,1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTKt9ovBhR
Seungri came over to me in a quick flash. He scared me by his sudden 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡExOB2xkE6Q
approach. He looked down on me with a look on his face.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhfe0Wxc18r
"What did you just do?" Seungri asked. His voice almost turned into a shriek.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5WEeGUiQUN
"You know what I did," I answered, my arms still remained folded as I looked up at him. "I lied."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrz3azK9pYj
"But why?" Christine turned to look at me fully in the face. "We're going to get into serious trouble."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwkzM4L3Dal
"Not until I hear what 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0YWx19Vyc
GD has to say." I looked at Christine and I could tell on her face that I1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeq1IGYQ1ck
sounded a bit harsh towards her. I closed my eyes and took a breath, 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0EGULiXmVS
trying to calm down.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFwrvs3Ephn
"Sorry, I didn't mean to sound harsh," I said as I looked at her.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2abdF1X3Xo
"I know. But you shouldn't have lied, Sam."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9FiuoHztJF
"So that we could get 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASMXt4884i
Zoey and G-Dragon into trouble? The reason why I did this is because I 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxq7nGAb2Ld
want to know for myself why GD changed everything. If we told Yang 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIuEa2gUggP
Hyun-suk, I wouldn't have known for myself."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSe081YaZa0
"I agree with Sam," said1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWq5sP9RmxR
TOP. "We the group members have to know what's going on first. Getting 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZNcsNcjkL
Yang Hyun-suk angry won't be good for all of us and you know it."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbOMgCcVOGU
"So we just sit here and wait for them?" Mike asked.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOndPc9ZHE4
"Do we have a choice?" I asked as I looked out the window.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2caK81TI2
The rest of the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhQSQcsijw
afternoon was quiet and boring. I was just on the couch looking out the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxON1DDFMGP
window, while the others were now on the floor sitting in a circle 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wI0JOp4M5
playing cards.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBcKGvsj0v
I was leaning my chin on1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLe6O6V4J6h
the armchair and my legs were up on the couch. I sighed sadly. I still 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuYXC3CH1N0
felt so bad about the song and I wondered why all this was happening, 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUbOLZwYwt5
especially to me.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCebaL4QT6X
Did he do all this because of what happened with TOP the other day?1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ZcVb0EnVC
I suddenly sat upright 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQDaQemxv5
when I realised something. Hadn't he told Zoey that he liked her? If he 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqphLjSolh2
really did like Zoey from the beginning, then why was he acting like a 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXXE2JDENS
jealous prick the other day? Was he trying to get back at me not just by1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDB3QNDJQIs
ruining the track but also by hanging out with Zoey?1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5nLCdvFUyc
"Hey, Sam, are you okay?" Daesung asked as he looked at me. "You look like you have seen a ghost."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBQANU898j
"I...eh.." I tucked a strand of hair behind my ear. "Nothing. Just realised something."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxX4gd4rCv
"That you're hungry," said Seungri, looking at his cards in his hands. "I'm also hungry."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKkIMF3pUi9
"But we can't go out and order lunch," said Mike. "I feel Yang Hyun-suk's eyes are everywhere now apart from here."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbMcpi1dmM
"Maybe we can just order1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrF5fjNKEZI
a pizza and tell the receptionist to come here without raising any 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItMWPerrBk
suspicion to Yang Hyun-suk," said Daniel.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Kbc2svrgt
"Good idea," said TOP. "Let me tell her right now." He pulled out his phone and just when he was about to call, Lee came in.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdPd8mhGTz
"Hey, guys," said Lee carrying three boxes of pizza in her hands.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9XFB2MqVqu
"Finally, food!" Christine exclaimed as she got up from the floor and ran over to Lee to help with the boxes.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSuPtObzDIF
"I heard that Zoey and 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡytTSrs8cEn
G-Dragon had left," said Lee. "Yang Hyun-suk told me and he is watching 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cuwkIHXFw
out of his office window for them like a hawk."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWPDyoInlT
"I knew it," said Mike. "I knew he was watching."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4I4LU1Lrpu
"Then it's a good thing 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCVQdiZTrw
Sam texted me a while ago," said Lee. "I had to find a way to sneak in 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr1zHxqCGzR
the pizza. That's why I took forever to get here."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dhB3ugt8z
Daniel came over to hug me. "Thanks, sis. I don't know what we would have done without you. I was starving."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrxuv5XyUvt
"Ya, I know," I said. "We better eat quickly before the managers get here."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6NZjrcrCJU
Everyone soon dropped 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBq373hNRDh
their cards and went over to the table started to dig in as soon as one 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4qabC8xvW
of the pizza boxes was laid on the table and Lee opened it.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNiQP3LshJ
I had never eaten pizza 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4GQWvpUaF
so fast and it had never tasted so good in my mouth. Maybe it's because 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDnP3h0BtKO
despite all the anger bottled up inside me, I was as hungry as hell.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPIvrmz1v0c
We were done finishing 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVvYHkZzR5
the second box of pizza when Lee asked, "I heard G-Dragon changed the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5RAiZf6MRT
instrumental for the song, is that true?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8JFMr3g4Je
"Well, ya," I said with my mouth full of pizza. The pizza was so good.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkN92DpNNjr
"He changed it for real?" Lee sounded surprised. "But Yang Hyun-suk said you haven't heard it yet."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDAeDrO7oOJ
We were huddled up on 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDeNpvFdepJ
the floor around the table eating our pizza and we had soon stopped 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPTBFbtbgO
eating and looked at Lee who was seated on the couch.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMaUKlc6pU
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Lee asked.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRQP0g8rZ6
"We actually lied," said Taeyang.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5H832JFry
"You lied? About what?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmijDYvLXjy
"I told the manager that we hadn't heard the instrumental," I said.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNqhKk7Ag6I
"But why?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡinEkikuVeG
"Because, I had no choice. I want to know why GD did this. It's best we know and see how we can move forward."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPYdZ78bJTD
I finished my slice of pizza and licked my fingers when Lee asked, "don't you think he just did that to get back at you, Sam?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSw97wbGPYI
I didn't expect Lee to 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDestoq0lG
say that in front of everyone. I felt time I had stood still and all 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIYERmtRBpe
eyes were on me now. I looked away without saying a word.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrd2iZp3Evf
"What does she mean by that, Sam?" Daesung asked.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡquN5t1ck28
"Please, tell us," said Christine. "What is it with you and GD? Are you two still fighting?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQHLsTT0Xh
I sighed as looked up at the ceiling still without saying a word. I didn't know how I was going to tell them.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWrWMxiUe3
"I thought that argument ended a long time ago," said Daniel. "Or did something else happen?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNwKzQqG9n6
I stood up from the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrU4QOdYXGB
floor and walked over to the window. The day was so bright and warm but 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqG5m9f6i2H
yet I felt so cold and gloomy. I knew this day would come sooner or 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxci5ZEmr3i
later.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQ4weSRatC
Trying to find the right1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQMBTK1Ibil
words to say was a lot harder than I thought. What was I going to say? 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQrbc8Htyn
To me, all this was confusing. I knew GD was still mad at me, but for 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡElzoXGNYEi
what for, was the question in mind.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVaK7sKr0Hq
"Aren't you going to 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoAfQGKexDj
tell us?" Mike asked as I realised that he was standing next to me. "Is 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXlLH7ByGpw
he still mad about who had to write the lyrics for the song?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp4VJ3KCd1C
"I doubt it," said TOP. "I was here with them when they were writing the lyrics and the two of them looked fine to me."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrxJGxksCdo
"Please, tell us what's going on?" Taeyang asked. "Lee, do you know something?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv3tw2FMYKd
I looked at Lee and she was looking back at me with a scared look on her face. Using my eyes, I told her not to say a word.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wt7jQmyGJ
Lee went on to look at 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxnSV3ZzhQ
Taeyang and shook her head. "I've no clue. I didn't mean to say that. I 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnVgEpS3bR
just thought they might be arguing again."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOmWBbuxO9
"And it looks like it too," said Daniel, giving me an eye.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8qtjlA3D5
"Aren't you going to say anything, Sam?" Seungri asked.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡApsQP3Vx7B
"I don't even know what 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7BdTHntcyF
to say to you at this point," I said, turning back to face the window 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUsXDHGeq6m
and I saw G-Dragon's car pull into the premises. Mike also saw it too.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMV9l7yj8B
"They are here," Mike announced to the others.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ143rRbyQdl
No one said a word. The room had too much tension already, it was best not to say a word.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxiLjsrOPq
"I better call Yang Hyun-suk," said Lee.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXcPD96gS7J
"No, not yet," I said, before Lee could stand up from the couch. "Wait until Zoey and G-Dragon get in here."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZAYeWuSIPS
Lee just nodded her head and I went back to looking through the window down at the car park.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7oFAGsIpaG
It only took five 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZx6zWYTcG
minutes for Zoey and G-Dragon to get to the studio. They came in talking1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEGPeGF6kkk
and laughing. Well, that happiness was going to end soon. Not when you 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv9W6pd0L9S
see your group members are all upset and gloomy.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYebCMIBf4n
"Hey, guys!" Zoey said cheerfully as she came in with G-Dragon behind her.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEe0yDxcmx7
When no one said anything back, Zoey's mood also changed. "What's with the long faces?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgA5mso5NJr
Still, no one said anything. It looked like no one was ready to throw the dice first. I cleared my throat and looked at Lee.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv9o6zVp0gd
"You can call Yang Hyun-suk for us," I said.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvizx1IeMir
"Okay." Lee got up from the couch and bypassed Zoey and G-Dragon going through the door.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ60mK7qw6h
"Aren't you going to say what's wrong with you guys?" G-Dragon asked.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUeuqN0gZEL
"Where were you?" I asked as I slowly started to approach them.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxlr8MTVmYs
"We went out," Zoey answered. "Are we in trouble with Yang Hyun-suk?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs4IY3pDari
"Not just with him but also with me, a lot of us too," I said motioning to the other group members in the room.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFy8adwPVtI
"What? Are you mad we left without telling you?" G-Dragon asked.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc9LpJEkekl
"No." I now turned to look at G-Dragon. "It's about the instrumental. You changed absolutely everything."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqDJr9yts9Y
I tried to keep my tone down and my anger in check but I was boiling inside. Any minute now, I might just blow my head off.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUlpLN8kXa0
I was expecting an answer from G-Dragon but all he did was look at me. I kept on coming closer, my eyes not leaving his.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2v5A63Da4
"Why did you this?" I asked.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI2aGqiD82l
"I didn't like the first one you made," he said, clearly with no emotion in his voice.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrXEPPhlVKj
"If you didn't like it, you should have just said so and all of us together would have figured something out. Not what you did."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQjeFa9JzT
When I got closer to them, I took out the USB drive from my pocket. I took G-Dragon's right hand and placed it in his open palm.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK5RgU7jIFK
"The instrumental is in 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8UIjERa2ul
there," I said as I slowly looked up at G-Dragon. "When Yang Hyun-suk 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCW93W8r20F
came to hear it, I told him that we ourselves haven't heard it. I did 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9BchRuqO1x
this so I can get the explanation out of you. But we're running out of 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHealloRQJ
time and he will be here any moment. It's up to you to give it to him 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsY7DdhobGY
and let him hear it for himself. But let me remind you, he is already 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ksxMDbshc
pissed."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGoBYQ4PLA
"Wait, a minute," said Taeyang as he came up right behind me. "He first has to tell us what's happening between the two of you."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8U4kaKbA75
"We don't have time, Tae," I turned to look at him.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡseLbbMin6f
"What is going on?" Zoey asked. "Are you and GD still not on good terms?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbF1pG3PxIh
I looked at Zoey and she1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGRMnNwbEuS
was as confused as ever. How I wish I could tell everyone but I didn't 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCyFYfeiYuT
know where I stand with G-Dragon. I still couldn't tell why and what he 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTpKFCmjNg
was mad at me for.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKn5QeA4sfk
"Now is not the right 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxG7wE5YfzM
time," I said as I went over to the couch and sat down. All eyes were on1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeb4BMKCiEi
me now and I knew everyone was confused, but later on, they would 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl0e42ylSNZ
understand.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9u9w34Dpl8
Yang Hyun-suk, Collins 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRgp7D7Xzmv
and Lee came in seconds later. I could tell a lot of people felt 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMoaFVNWZ4
uncomfortable when they came in. I didn't. I just wanted to see whether 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYICEqLRun4
G-Dragon would give away the USB drive or not.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQaoSpjHuKd
"It's about time you guys got here," said Yang Hyun-suk as he turned towards Zoey and G-Dragon. "Hope you had a perfect lunch."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2RbezAagFH
I almost smirked but kept my cool when Zoey said, "yes, we did."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXztmFwEZWH
"But did you manage to order lunch for your friends too?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTV7mfmSIWi
Zoey and G-Dragon paused. They obviously weren't expecting that. I had to step in and say something.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOBvvquGoG
"They did. They brought us pizza," I pointed at the three boxes of pizza on the table. We had only finished two boxes.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPYdNOIid0
"You guys were pretty hungry, weren't you?" Collins asked, looking surprised that two boxes were already empty.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VlHK0Pucj
"Ya, we were," said Mike as he opened the other box of pizza and the rest of us still eating dug in.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSEbF2XoYf
"So," Yang Hyun-suk looked away from us facing Zoey and G-Dragon. "Did you change anything with the instrumental or what?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhWm63W56tm
I paused with my mouth 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdwbTrKZpxg
open ready to bite another piece out of my slice. I looked on at what 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgayCvTHKo
was happening in front of me. I just hoped G-Dragon wasn't going to give1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0RAZ4mcNl
Yang Hyun-suk the USB drive.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3LdrB6qYym
I looked at G-Dragon and1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvN8e1tzFDj
noticed that he still had the USB enclosed in his hand. I looked at his1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1MoFZZnlw
face wondering what he was thinking.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH97ZFNZ7pU
"Do you think he will give away the USB?" Seungri asked as he whispered in my ear.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxmD11GmNHU
"Hopefully not," I whispered back. I even had my fingers crossed.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsEKodlNnLs
"No, we didn't change anything," said G-Dragon.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTN7rzoJLK3
I smiled and Seungri 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vntGuvNpu
held his breath and let out a sigh of relief. The rest of us on the 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqSBIv3Yy2s
couch seemed to have relaxed. Luckily, the managers hadn't read our body1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxLr1lg4B3
language. They didn't even look at us. But Lee did.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhgUSwjDxgf
"Thank goodness," said Yang Hyun-suk. "I thought you did. I'm glad you didn't."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94Y0qxzwRv
I smiled a little more. 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFcICK3s42L
G-Dragon did the right thing which I knew he would do. But the problem 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhIrhdtLmtT
was far from over though. Now that our group members knew that he and I 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡczMzSYmwq6
were at war again.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVBTU4RlSA
"But we can't start 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Ut0B00w8x
recording the track now," said Collins. "It's a little late so they 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA05s1rEFbw
would have to do it the day after tomorrow."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj6Wa87UdtJ
I sat upright and alert.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0yra5E6ji
"The day after tomorrow? What are we doing tomorrow that we possibly 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBA4Sc5hUVv
have to record the track the day after?"1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3BLHn4vadm
"Well, Sam," said Yang Hyun-suk turned to look at me. "The Toxins are going to have a TV interview tomorrow."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrG8Dygu0zY
"An interview?" Christine was the one who looked more surprised.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpazJqkYBJ
"But why didn't you tell1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDAtudHNQ1
us earlier?" I asked as I looked at Collins who smiled back at me. It 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNjXivKdiR8
was then that it hit me and things became clear.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3y7DcyiuYq
"Is that the surprise you were talking about yesterday?" I asked.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZinSDF3Vl
"Yep," said Collins as he grinned.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxBSHxjd3R
"This is one heck of a surprise, alright," said Zoey folding her arms.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaIBv2rEJcY
"Well, played," I muttered to myself as I looked away.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4CxwSxnYlB
"So, before the day ends, we better go get ready," said Collins. "You will also have to perform during the interview too."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqOE2PdsrU1
"This just keeps on getting better," said Daniel, rolling his eyes.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0cHRsSP24W
"What are we waiting for? Let's go," said Collins. "We don't have enough time in our hands."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPF71UvCDul
"You should have told us earlier, you know?" Mike said, as we the Toxins stood up to leave.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNXrJ4mVpY
"Then you should have thought twice before you all decided to leave for Paris."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDhn10Cu5pw
It was then that the other Toxins realised that all this was payback. I wasn't surprised. I already knew.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb588gAK2br
The two managers and Lee went out of the room first. Just as we were about to walk out, TOP stopped me by holding my hand.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlbCmFiX3j
I turned to look at him 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwsf0U3r04p
and he had stood up from the couch, looking straight at me. I blushed 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8NSfaiV1lz
and looked down at my feet. He always made me nervous when he looked at 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7y0fX7Iny3
me like that.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbhysLUjox
"We might have gotten away from our managers' fury today," said TOP. "But you and GD have a lot of explaining to do."1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1m6ac9WsSj
"I know," I said as I turned to look at G-Dragon, who quickly looked away.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUqELmBGOd
"Ya, a lot," said Daesung as he nodded his head. I could see he was trying to ignore that TOP was holding my hand.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR83qkDzCFs
"And don't try to come up with any excuses," said Taeyang.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTguU12cAn
"Don't worry, I won't," I promised. I just hoped G-Dragon wouldn't.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQQzUXEZrR
Zoey and the others left the room and I was the last to walk out. I didn't want to look at G-Dragon, but I did.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmtfIxFuMA
We looked at each other 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0mKE3FLWUG
for a while and I didn't know what I felt for him anymore. Maybe I was a1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyV1NNyGG3Q
little hurt, but I was also so confused. I don't know. I couldn't tell.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdH9GAKVswb
Maybe he also felt the same.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNHuIMG5yK
But I wouldn't know and I wouldn't like to know what he felt. I walked out of the studio, closing the door behind me.1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDF8UANgURV
I then realised that I 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8hMhloeyCV
had completely forgot to ask G-Dragon and TOP about the necklace Zoey 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsG7DBASIU6
bought for me from Paris. I guess that issue will have to come up 1029Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPB9N9B2c5
another time.
