My watch said 10:31 and I hissed in frustration. I was getting really impatient and I felt like I was about to blow a fuse.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSkr0PGZGk3
I had never been this 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYlqsSTIt8
late in my entire life. Not even when I had my own personal 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWj6XfhUY2G
appointments. The others would be wondering why I was so late. And 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTrlw8pewiE
trying to explain the reason why, would have them blown away.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQLZLImPqL
"Sam, are you still there?" Zoey called out to me from our room.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuETARgcZbu
I didn't want to answer. I was quite irritated. But if I didn't, she would start to freak out.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLchn8eu8Tb
"Sam!"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4TopgUdKI
I rolled my eyes. "I'm still here, Zoey," I answered.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVev1xcjOx
Zoey came out of the 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡupTogDL55s
room and came to the lounge where I was seated waiting for her. I was on848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtEmv5OjoPt
the couch and I looked at her, then back at my watch.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx9zAED4dLi
"Did you find what you're looking for?" I asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlByMX5mhbn
"No, I haven't," said Zoey.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBUYIHJFZl
"You've been searching for it all morning," I said as I stood up. "Can we please just go to the studio? We're already late."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68KjyZgi1v
"No, let me go and check again," Zoey turned around to head back to the room and I groaned so loudly to grab her attention.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhLen2it78R
"Zoey, it's just a stud and you have plenty of those like it in your jewellery box."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGIvQhWR9KK
"But those are my favourite studs," said Zoey. "You know they are diamond, right?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLldPhPzYHN
"I know because I bought you those studs for your birthday a year ago."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyuB1fZe5Ap
"Oh. Ya, I know." Zoey had a look on her face that told me she forgot about that.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5JrAHmMRMi
I ignored her and said, 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMaXFSKI6l
"just get another pair of studs or don't put on any at all. For my sake.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6sSYKBeV44
And Collins' too. We were supposed to be at the studio at 10."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM6531mIpZn
"What time is it?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNFknBH1kU
"10:35."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHszH0AjHcc
"Wow, time really passes by."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJKxIgCyJt
"When it comes to you, it does. Come on, let's go."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUj2ZXSQbuZ
"Let me go get my phone."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFEZBZlM8n
Zoey rushed back to the 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGmgd86PBaL
room and I hoped she wasn't going to get back to looking for her missing848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16awoKhTDB
stud. She sometimes did the opposite of what she had to do. But anyway,848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPqtiAmZI7
that was Zoey.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhcegJDAqe
I soon received a 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0nU4z2iwtq
message from Collins threatening me to get to the studio as soon as 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSWDdHDfaga
possible. In no less than five minutes. I moaned. He knew we couldn't 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcu7FVeb6zd
get there in five minutes. That's if we were superheros.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItycFXY4wK
"Zoey, come on, we better go!"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqXqsJ81HY
"I'm coming."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKv3eKOXZaY
I started heading 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9vUxYwXBNM
towards the elevator and my phone beeped again. Another message. 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2R9WUdg4g
Hopefully it wasn't Collins again telling us he would hang us to death 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ33ntH7SMOH
if we didn't make it in time. But I was surprised to see an unknown 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibovln14gv
number. A number coming from another country.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdjSpY2TZc
"Oh, who is this?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSA3shYAgiG
Before I could open the message icon, Zoey came rushing from behind and bumped into my back. That almost made me drop my phone.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk88ohpCXLX
"My goodness, Zoey!" I said as I looked at her. "You should look where you're going. I almost dropped my phone."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLigLIliUOi
"Sorry," said Zoey as she also looked at me.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG6YR2CissF
"Come on, we're already late."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xHYKxBMkQ
We went into the 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUR8IFqR9F
elevator and I put my phone away in my jeans jacket pocket. A black 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu36HrRJall
Chevrolet SUV was waiting for us outside. The others had already left 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJRuQBUu0q
for the studio and I had stayed behind because of Zoey's missing stud.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98Q0hlru5d
When we got to YG, 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfvy17FRz5
Collins stood there by the entrance, obviously waiting for us. He looked848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf9BGzl29TB
like an angry father ready to scold at his kids for coming home late.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwycLU2P8sq
"Don't tell me all this is your doing, Zoey," said Collins as we approached him.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5B0QFhRTuv
"No, no, it's not," said Zoey as she shook her head.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvMDufnJrRy
"Says the person who isn't wearing her studs today."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrfzAn4GVZ1
Zoey held her earlobes 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡME6qOofZQI
and looked at me with a surprised look on her face. I shrugged. I had to848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3bQ6tTjlX
tell Collins why we delayed over the phone. At least he believed me, 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrGOSOvTRKB
knowing that he already knew what was Zoey was like.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8rmYIW7aSR
"Come on, the others are waiting and they didn't want to start without you," said Collins.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbdEPuAaYb8
"They had to wait," said Zoey, flipping her hair. "I'm singing the first verse alongside G-Dragon."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9aahmmOBLc
"Remind me whenever you're deciding who sings which part of a song to let me be there," said Collins as he turned to look at me.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIFUOoGAVXy
"I'll try." I smiled. Zoey stuck out her tongue at Collins.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyj9XjZk5B7
We got to the studio and we found everyone else waiting for us, lazing around on the couch.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW3rHYG0YC0
"Hey, you're finally here," said Seungri.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHXpodid9b
"Sorry, we had an issue back at the hotel," said Zoey.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8jFjXUQBc
"Ya. A 'serious' one." I said as I rolled my eyes.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUfZ9qkTyiO
"I can't wait to get started," said Daniel excitedly as he stood up from the couch.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfz2fYjZcIb
"Then let's do so," said848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx11Yyr6NPJ
Collins as he joined the music producer by the console. "Zoey, Taeyang,848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoyrvpqkSVL
Christine, Sam and G-Dragon, we will start with you guys."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktqCBf9Gn7
I had completely forgot 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1CFk9bOiR
that G-Dragon was even in the room. I hadn't noticed him at all when he 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKiKISwuQYb
stood up from the couch and came towards Zoey and I.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7YXO3IMDST
"Hi, Zoey," G-Dragon greeted Zoey.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKDFcdMdsle
"Hi," said Zoey with a wide smile on her face.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgHXULRDm1U
"Ahem," Christine came from behind as she cleared her throat. "Let's go. You two can talk later."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8FQeiA6Fhy
I rolled my eyes and together with Taeyang and Christine, we went into the live room together, followed by the two love birds.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZ1etXVtxd
In the live room, there 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxlRp8lYPuE
stood five microphones and with each mic had a pair of headphones around848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXtRtSK1Lda
it. We each stood in front of a microphone and put on the headphones.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWkkmHKOkcW
Ahead of us was a window where we could see the others from the other side.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxX6AHAJnpH
"Are you guys ready?" Collins asked as his voice was heard through the speaker in the live room.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt621uJoKnZ
I looked at the others 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5e0Diw9Dn
to see if they were settled and gave Collins a thumbs up and the music 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqVvA5jcMtm
producer started to play the tune for the song.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmORGXnPjke
G-Dragon started to sing848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAmHM4JztX0
and then afterwards, Zoey followed. Their voices blended so well with 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbhBjHbhDs
the music, they made a perfect harmony. Looked like I did a good thing 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZH0RO59Zf
to let them sing the first verse together.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9XlyIC3MtT
Collins, the music 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpijXPawh1W
producer and the others outside the live room had smiles on their faces.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq7DhMCagCT
They were loving it alright. Collins gave them a thumbs up.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvafJz2Fk8
Christine then sang the 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRv3L1yxId
bridge and as she came came closer to the chorus, I joined in. Then 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnFsE2rlJUU
Taeyang and I sang the chorus together.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEgj3LRQbgE
When we were done, the music producer stopped playing the track.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMcO5DvDWi
"That was awesome, guys," said Collins as his voice came out through the speaker. "The song is so incredible."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcnBl1c1tdZ
"Ya, thank Sam," said Taeyang. "She is the one who came out with all of this."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBvQ67HhLvp
I smiled at Taeyang who stood beside me and I nudged him on the shoulder. "Stop it, Tae," I said. "Don't make me blush."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHaPNgNVrxu
"Okay, Sam and Taeyang, I848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡow0LCvJKgC
want you two to go through the chorus again, this time with a little 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXg8SZfIi3K
more high tempo and see how it sounds," said the music producer.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIv9COS1bI7
"Okay," Taeyang and I said at the same time.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUI7Eoz3fe
"Shall GD and I leave then?" Zoey asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkyGd7HeorO
"You may," said Collins,848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRu7tW7Abj
looking a little irritated on his face. "But don't leave the studio. 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoadPHgxpCq
You have to work on the backup vocals."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwe9lc4MlYl
"Alright, we will be here," said Zoey, with a grin on her face.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRoxdvpadX
If I hadn't known 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSfZrQioFX
better, something told me Zoey and G-Dragon were up to something. They 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyi8l5T2Tml
looked like little mischievous children as they smiled at each other and848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9XbWXBJTHo
they walked out of the live room. I couldn't help but feel a little 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhdTPivsh0
hollow inside.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOOHEgLgFz
"So, we will start from Christine's part," said the music producer.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPZibMO6to
We continued recording 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9Ju7PPHxu
the song and later on, TOP, Mike, Daesung, Seungri and Daniel also came 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7NYQxFmnEf
into the live room. It took us a while to record the whole song, trying 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPKaUMNbRY7
to make our vocals blend in with the song but we were done.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAmcNecV1Kk
"Great job guys," said Collins. "Let's break up for lunch and then we can come back and work on the backup vocals."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡchjsQIsMRD
"Alright," said Mike as he took out his headphones. "I'm pretty hungry now."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLotDjKh1Uo
"The song is amazing," said Christine. "And it's catchy that you can sing it the whole day."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6iZIUDnRS
"Ya," said TOP. "Why don't we all go somewhere special for lunch?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GMfZb7DV1
"Like where?" I asked as I put the headphones on the mic.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡziQp0NzyUl
"Some restaurant I think we will like," said TOP as he looked at me with a killer smile.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvssl9shTlL
"That sounds great." I turned to the window to look at Collins who obviously heard everything. "Can we go, Collins?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bTeZ34nfM
"Ya, you can go," said Collins waving his hand irritatingly in the air.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Vdj1tNgJJ
"Yes!" Daniel punched the air with his fist.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1eh3Hwkkdm
"But be back within an hour."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz31w4GNCEF
I raised an eyebrow at Collins who then rolled his eyes at me and groaned.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgGd1quFsc
"Fine, an hour and a half."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCciCOM6LkF
I did a little victory dance in my heart and I smiled in triumph. Collins and the music producer soon left the studio room.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZ5e066tON
"How did you do that?" Daesung asked as we all walked out of the live room.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZwFkdloOSS
"Do what?" I asked with a smile on my face as Daesung was right behind me.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhSgz8rYX09
"How did you convince Collins to give us an hour and thirty minutes?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3JQ03AaMfg
"That, my friend," said 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8A5jTNXsR0
Mike behind me, "is the way my sister does her thing. Just by a look in 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRQlAEw9Fx
her eyes and you will have to do whatever she wants."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6cuhbs06fF
"That's not true," I said as I turned around to look at Mike who had his hand on Daesung's shoulder.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkl5n3wPbn
"Really? I beg to differ," said TOP as he winked at me.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp97u8k5HsW
"No one does what I want them to do just by looking at them in the eye," I said, looking away from TOP, blushing.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX18VepqcS0
"Well, it does work, most of the time," said Christine nodding her head.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvGoYpLqxA
"Oh, ya? Like when?" I folded my arms.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWykXwE3WTy
"Whenever you want us to848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcgG1d5s2Ta
tell you the truth about something and we refuse, you always give us 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhwZFeslvcB
this eye that makes us give in," said Daniel.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZXcrPR5Kpn
"For real?" I raised an eyebrow.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡseZ9RKl6aY
"Ya, your eyes burn and we just can't take it," said Christine.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRj5cPTgooe
"Huh," I thought of all 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsjXWPXcjx
the times when either of my brothers or the girls ever did whatever I 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTefc50rjrU
wanted them to do just by me giving them the eye.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcif39iQvg7
"But that doesn't explain with Collins though," said Taeyang.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0NRX4DXtk
"Thank you, Tae," I said feeling relieved.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwD5Gn7brk3
"Come on, Sam," said 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM1Ez5DrOFM
Daniel. "You might not know it, but Collins listens to you because you 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLnmyyR78E
also give him the eye. And also probably because you're his favourite."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡprC2Hvodmc
"That makes no sense." I shook my head.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJao5ZeYMj
"I believe him," said Seungri. "Looks like you have a way of getting to Collins to make him agree with you."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFfP3A8Hqag
"But he doesn't agree to me all the time," I slowly shook my head.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGSZGcwISca
"On some ocassions like this one, he does," said Christine with a smile.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXlEakB7D5v
"Can we please just go for lunch?" I asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpj3M6Ip9tY
Seungri came over to open the door for me, but just as I was about to step out of the room, I stopped.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHz3aluSSQ
"Guys?" I turned around to look at the others. "Where are Zoey and GD?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DrVeLOPW6
We all turned towards the couch and noticed that there was no one there. I went back in the room and looked around.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrBbloFN0i
"They aren't here," I said.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1penCX53w
"These guys don't stop surprising us with their disappearing acts," said Daesung.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUVx2vwKj50
"I'm surprised Collins didn't notice," said Seungri.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMesIXAqxIc
"Hopefully, they will be back before we start on the backup vocals," I said.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZaizdI13zP
"Then let's go then," said TOP. "Wherever those two are, they are fine."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhc7yKRSpbh
I nodded my head and we 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYL8iec5uw
all left the room. As we headed down to the ground floor, I reminded 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1L1wNwrFKJ
myself to leave a text message for Zoey.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasfIAiGWLb
We were in the lobby and848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwIbtuWV7nI
I stopped to remove my phone. I went over to messages and realised that848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvdOPhUx1fm
I had one unread message. It was the message I had received this 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQeMn4VBc6S
morning.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqSWCxqVNH
I first sent Zoey a text848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgf4cFgBPNm
message then I decided to read the unknown message from this unknown 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMf7m5X2B5
person. Then TOP appeared right in front of me.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2lO89vrjTC
"Hey, what are you looking at?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpe74cwgUSD
I was startled by his sudden appearance that my thumb pressed the exit button and I had gone out of my messages.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jLgBva5bA
"I was just sending Zoey a message," I said.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTr8mz3tooV
"Okay, shall we go?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXodLiaXOgF
"Ya, sure." I put the phone back in my pocket and I wrapped my arm around his elbow and we walked out of the building.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9O1Iz7FGk
"Oh, you guys look like you're going out," said Christine with a smile.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDNZVdZrB0
"We're all going out for lunch aren't we?" I asked with a smirk.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2gZCmGHCQZ
"Ya, we are," said Daesung, looking the other way and scratching the back of his head.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwhi4H4QXu
"We better go or else our one and half hours will elapse in no time," said Daniel.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡClvJyJKMj4
Instead of using any one848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wTe5VTJdP
of the BigBang members personal cars, we used the two black SUVs. We 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3NdzrVV5LH
were driven to a fancy restaurant and as usual, we grabbed a lot of 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyz51X8BlKW
attention, especially from the customers.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbLXmX6f2Ue
I had to admit, the 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX88U8aOhlC
restaurant was nice and classy, suitable for the famous and the rich. As848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvuzPR68JB
I walked into the restaurant with the others, a fancy glass chandelier 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIkdV0SQm1V
caught my eye. The polished wooden floor shone almost like glass under 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlsCwMyDGtm
the lights the chandelier reflected all over the room.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxpUaj0fxa
A smartly dressed 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0GQdNLvKLn
waiter, who by the way, was super cute, came over. He gave us a friendly848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNav0IRzBOM
smile and I felt Christine nudge me by the shoulder and when I turned 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjt3TEJ0HOn
to her, she was smiling. Looked like she also noticed the waiter's good 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7puDqsYk1
looks too. Damn! Why were Korean men so good looking?848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8JUCUUOi4t
We were escorted to a 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIvcTCpyje
round table big enough to cater a whole lot of people. Even ten. But 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfDmF1uG8l
sadly, Zoey and G-Dragon weren't here.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVv4ZFTyUBB
TOP pulled a chair for 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbmqMx0WOQ
me and I sat down, thanking him as he took his seat beside me. Seungri 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPoj9CJRLK
pulled a chair for Christine who sat on my other side and Seungri sat 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJk0QQXn6w
beside her.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYrMxV8ERB8
"This place is so lovely," I said as I looked around.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZOfPhP6gp
"Tell me about it," said Christine.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHb5QpvYI0
"I knew you would like it," said TOP.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBpjCRT9Lta
"Ya, it's exquisite, but I'm only here for the food," said Mike who sat opposite me.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6nOMnbi9gq
"So, let's order," said Daesung.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5R5vW0IjK0
I took the fancy looking menu with the colour of velvet and the letters written in gold. Classy.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUHSOPEzF6
After our delicious meals had been served, we ate. I enjoyed it as I savoured every little food in my mouth.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsN4bMQCzPi
As we were having our 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO5k8U4s0Ou
dessert, we were chatting and there was a lot of laughter all around our848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzymbciIMb
table. It was fun to be like this, all together as good friends and 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhHtYKa2Ia
laughing about. I kind of wished Zoey and GD were here. I bet they were 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGriqZG9C6q
having fun wherever they were.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXnuKXsJyB
While I was having my 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQnjcpWKiIl
strawberry cake, I felt the vibration of my phone in my pocket. Must be a848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg7tAwMqmBF
message. I took out my phone and I was shocked to see that the same 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYGhYihX1D
unknown number had sent me a message again.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWm1dV42EO9
I tapped on the message 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyt8o8mHCKu
icon and the first message the unknown number had sent to me was a 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05mgIuNGEt
photo. I had to download it first before I could even see it. And then 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08Y5amfHo7
the next message was more surprising.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37W97lc0nY
"Aren't you going to do anything about this?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeWGblh403f
Anything about what was 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQuaMiVZ6dN
the question. Had this had to do with the photo? Must be or else the 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnrAk1WD8V
unknown person wouldn't have texted me this message.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBT8qP7iiLe
I decided to turn my data on and download the photo. Just as I was about to, my phone went off.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDuVESc2HsC
"Dang it!" I muttered to myself.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6CXUGLQ4m
"Hey, what's wrong?" TOP asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9wQiyki1XW
"Nothing, my phone went dead. I hadn't charged it last night."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDGGUPqKF9m
"Was there something important you wanted to do?" Taeyang asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgkXlsE6Bve
"Not really, it's not important." I shook my head but my thoughts still lingered on the unknown photo.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaREMzc3GuK
"Did Zoey text you back?" Christine asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5c7HSsieq
"No, why?" I asked as I picked up a piece of strawberry cake with my fork.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlDaMD6ej4
"Well, your phone vibrated so I thought you had received a message from her."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtk6thln0Bh
"It was nothing. Wherever Zoey is, she is having a lot of fun."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXjjz9K3UN
"Hey, what's up with GD and Zoey anyway?" Taeyang asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYd9FMotSFY
"Isn't it freaking obvious?" said Daesung. "Those two seem like a couple now."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw1p29TVfTl
I almost choked on my cake but instead, I cleared my throat. Christine rolled her eyes.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ySxUMF73J
"Well, that wasn't going to go on unnoticed forever," she said.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6pTZIK7B3
"Wait, for real?" Taeyang asked, with a look of surprise.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡumj2tqqFvc
"And you already knew, didn't you?" Mike asked looking at Christine.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlm9jkju75k
"Oh, please," said Christine rolling her eyes. "Don't tell me you haven't noticed how close those two are nowadays."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡswrYDXkAfD
"They have always been close," said Seungri. "But this time, they are just way too close."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBpEHq1JEE
"For them to disappear like that together, it counts for something, right?" TOP suggested.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Rlv79Q9RK
"Can we please stop 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjlAXwmQZEG
talking about it?" I asked. "There are people around and if they hear 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6QzzevfRI7
all this, some of us would be hanged when this spreads like wild fire."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFd8k0GWgkz
"Why do you say that?" Daesung asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4suDehFUEE
"Oh, oooh, oh," said Daniel waving his hand from across the table. "May I say it?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0NBLspADVM
"No, let me," said 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxIBu0m3EAP
Christine, as she put her hand on mine and looking at me convincingly to848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0UQc3xdfIq
allow her to say what she wanted to say.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNs8NfhJfeF
I shook my head at Christine and she leaned back on her seat with a groan. Daniel smiled when I nodded my head to let him go on.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡndOoGmiG6T
"Because, Collins gave 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHB8XkNarEc
these girls a golden rule when we were coming here," said Daniel. "And 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0R5rWaUMlg
that is, none of them should date any one of you BigBang members. 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKgHM5U82sm
Never."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0Kwj2AA57
There was silence on the848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNsfxjle3T
table and I couldn't help but feel a little downcast. Christine 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh7jk7clI4v
continued to eat her dessert like nothing serious had been said. I 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTaUj4iNiT
looked over at my brothers who seem to be enjoying our humiliation.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJADoDZWHVp
"Is that true?" Seungri asked, looking over at me.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡom1jbrEnCt
"Ya, it's true," I said as I slowly chewed the cake in my mouth.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzAji69LNV
"Oh." Daesung looked a little disappointed as he stared down at his plate.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjCmsW6snR
"Who cares? It's not like it's that serious," said TOP as he shrugged.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzSqWYdBsJ
"It's serious to 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJa4oQMBUmV
Collins," I said as I turned to look at TOP. "We're only here to 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXSQDehmGGJ
collaborate with you and that's all. Not date, get married and have 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIaWGgWDYA7
babies."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4yfLkgGXR3
That was odd coming out 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCvEecSh6V
of my own mouth and the others knew it too. Everyone's eyes were on me, 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOHUBZ6YR5
with looks on their faces that I couldn't describe. This was 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSm5U6pbC0
embarrassing. My hands were now curled into fists as they rested on my 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6veD5xxIgs
laps.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDD0GgWV8r
"Sorry, that came out wrong," I said.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcjr1Pr0Tbr
"Well, you did catch us by surprise by saying that," said Taeyang.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Ujpz6qzZS
I really did. Something 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQQOQ7OIVF
had gone totally wrong with me and I could feel it. My thoughts were 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk41pC4Wquh
spinning in my head and I felt like I had no control over how I felt.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEYYTeXPtep
"Excuse me, I'll need to use the rest room," I said as I drew back my chair, stood up and headed straight for the ladies' room.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kSUjyzmTN
I quickly closed the 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT33XUAKZrV
door immediately I stepped in the ladies' room, leaning my back against 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6n0TK0Vvtc
the door. My hands flew to my hair and I took a deep breath. I walked 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLIQzXRCxh
over to the sink and stared at myself in the mirror.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2YmqKaB4dw
"What's wrong with you today?" I asked my reflection.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gumHTXSwX
I shook my head and I 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaO9xZyu2qr
knew I wasn't alright. Something was definitely wrong. Was it the fact 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ObRh8ToUm
that Zoey and G-Dragon were together? As far as I know, I wasn't really 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH1MMHD4fFY
supposed to care. But I did.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBunDKA0FnO
I looked at myself and I848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTgq6EP9nm0
could see the sadness in my eyes. Were they for G-Dragon? I shook my 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDdaoJpBnF
head at the thought. No. They weren't. He and I were still at war with 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxIO4F9Zva
each other and that made no sense. I had to stop thinking about these 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6udl6QLtUR
things and focus on what's really important.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQC84At2j6G
I quickly took a deep breath to try and pull myself together. I rinsed my hands, left the room and went back to our table.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDuexKjNm2u
"Are you okay, Sam?" Mike asked as I sat back down.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3nZQtjDLDD
"Ya, I am. I just feel horrible that I said that."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7A8hzsSxg
"We think we know why you did," said Christine.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkTwv6UgPp
I gulped. What had these848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZTxSvkgeN8
guys thought of now? If it was what I thought it was, I would rather 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qmFStVZf6
not hear it. There was a moment of silence at the table.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHr5cvC1Am2
"Zoey has you so worked up that you're irritated," said TOP.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg63LPsHg24
That was not what I was expecting. I was wide eyed and in my heart, feeling a little relieved.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgMZGHdenl
"Ya, I remember when we were coming here in the plane and Collins told you to watch over Christine and Zoey," said Mike.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5sVQ64xYO
"And I have been a good girl on my part," said Christine making an invisible drawing of a halo above her head with her finger.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbEFPmVWIAJ
While Christine was one 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYlHr6cdVL
who at least had her hormones in check, Zoey and I were pretty much 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDaFSITSHwB
guilty. I couldn't tell who was worse between either of us. I bet I was 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAzghkyDnRg
worse.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDTj2XVJSe
"Well, I guess I'm also guilty myself like Zoey," I said, admitting to everyone.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKk6j2pPtVZ
"If you mean TOP flirting around with you, then trust me, you're not," said Daniel.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqBhONUYrsl
"Hey!" TOP looked a little annoyed but rather amused. He ended up laughing.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJcPW5jFza
"And me calling you my panda," said Seungri, with a smirk.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLZtdg2WR0
"You see, Sam, people just like you," said Mike. "And these guys shouldn't dare make a move of kissing you."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLECo6sAlHS
I blushed. "Mike!"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSyyhwO4jGE
"Don't worry, he is just being protective over his sister," said Daesung, laughing.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ03qUa93qZ8
"I've tried kissing 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFLY7GEF88s
her," TOP challenged as he looked over at my brothers. He raised an 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfV3F4wbfx
eyebrow. "What are you going to do about that?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡras4MhXCL3
"Uhh, if I were you, I 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Z4UzsbMs9
wouldn't challenge them, TOP," I said as put my hand on his shoulder, 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdmRhfZIxvv
looking over at my brothers who looked set on tearing TOP apart. And I 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYrfxls5irw
caught a glimpse of Daesung rolling his eyes at TOP. "You would end up 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjf8ZUzjm6
regretting it."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfr9l5JgHmC
"True," said Christine, nodding her head at TOP. "These boys are like monsters you can't beat. Only Sam can handle them."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5m4gsLyqgt
I looked over at Christine with a look that said 'that's not true.' Christine shrugged.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡosj181OHE5
"Fine, I'll listen to 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKJgEz0ast
you ladies," said TOP as he looked at Christine and I. "Most especially 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOANvXstbGQ
because Sam says so." He gave me that killer bad boy smile of his and I 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNpfk9TfBsy
blushed.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1s6akkdjs
"Well, we better go," said Taeyang.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK5MVOevaQ4
He was right. We only had a few minutes to get to YG. And Collins was one person who's strict when it comes to time.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡblIa7RZBwb
After TOP paid the bill, we left the restaurant with the paparazzi taking pictures as we walked out.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXA4jKkqgG
We got to YG just in 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5XOK2aJNFj
time. I just hoped that Zoey and G-Dragon were back here. I didn't want 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKX5TvDYhLI
Collins on my throat and giving him the eye, wasn't going to help.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqjjGbJX5Y
When we got to the studio, we found G-Dragon.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5luOZPgOJW
"Hey, where did you two disappear to?" Christine asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCN8TvFWJ2c
"We just went out," said G-Dragon as he looked around the room.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYAPFcV2ItA
I couldn't help but feel848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdTAfTC1mEM
that something was wrong, just by the look on his face. "What's wrong?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaNWJTBqCrK
I asked him with my eyebrow raised.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqvlqkgQZxx
"Huh?" He appeared to be absent minded. Was he looking for something?848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR8EbGNZac8
"I was asking what's wrong with you? And where is Zoey?" I asked as I also looked around.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSvRam2mMb
"That's the thing," said G-Dragon. "I can't find her."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNq9PrldkGX
I felt something inside 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG0pxNUlJCE
me break and my eyes bulged out of their sockets ready to fall out. I 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfdJ6QazSP
couldn't believe what I was hearing.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQFdGHgLtg
"Are you for real?" Taeyang asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTRfRtr48B
"I'm serious," said G-Dragon.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHjAXHAjEn
"Wait, do you mean you 'lost' her?" Mike asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSTYmVW03q
"I didn't lose her, I just can't find her."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMsA3aFFAnR
"That sounds more like losing her to me," said Daniel.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGARGmGbhN9
"You guys aren't helping!" G-Dragon exclaimed throwing his hands in the air in frustration.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGZhUK3W9I
"Where were you guys first of all?" Seungri asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYassFUUSVJ
"We first went to have lunch then the two of us went to the park."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmC9P4cx7IC
"Then?" TOP asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxmd0TC1Uh
"I don't know, I went over to get some ice cream for the both of us, and the next thing I know she was gone."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbOUbpupvW
"Are you sure?" Daesung asked. "Did you look everywhere for her?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbumbypbegh
"I did. I even asked people around and they hadn't seen her. I thought she would be back here."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxiy8TD3Uni
"That would be unusual, given that Zoey doesn't really know the city so well," said Taeyang.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9eGBbs8ZQ
"But where could she be?" Christine asked looking as worried as I was.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXX0Z2iZyc
"Try calling her," said Seungri, turning to Christine.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6gDB5vWWh5
"I just hope she is okay," I said as I rubbed my neck.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrb5z6bc71a
"What are we going to do with Collins?" Mike asked looking at me.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7j25nc7JY
"I don't know," I said. "Hey, do me a favour and try to call the hotel and see if Zoey is there."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjW0wqP6fk6
"Sure thing," said Mike as he pulled out his phone.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0ZrmzwWM3
"Her phone is off," said Christine her phone in her hand.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyE6ymYKS04
"Oh, no, this isn't good," said TOP.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7xdmvim5b
"Again, Zoey is putting us into more problems."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5HywLurHK
I couldn't help but 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiAxJJWIcPe
wonder why she went off like that. Something wasn't right. Was G-Dragon 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡajHWPg839U
not telling us what was really going on?848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdcOubhxHkc
"No one has seen Zoey go into the hotel," Mike announced.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtgj9J4sva
"We're goners," said Seungri as he dropped himself on the couch.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZuwXlhO2L
"We've to look for her," said TOP.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQfbk5rv7b
"But where can we start looking?" Daniel asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPIUHeKbY9N
"I don't know, but we have to go and find her," I said.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7BwcBaRCRa
"And we have to do something with Collins," said Taeyang.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgI4xaRw3F
"Did someone say my name?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZHS2jcP4E
I cringed. He was one 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTr223hj1Q
person I wasn't ready to face right now. Everyone else wasn't ready to 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBq6D3DCiM
either. We slowly turned to look behind us and Collins stood there with 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0HjlV4JWDs
the music producer.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFBjPpyfgvt
"Why are you all looking worried like someone has gone missing?" Collins asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHj59gSZC3v
I sighed. If only he knew. But if he does find out, he wasn't going to forgive us that easily.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsg5W1vaaQS
Collins looked on at us, waiting to answer him. What to do now! We were going to be in such big trouble.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzCwkatDln6
"Looks like you aren't 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfHJEAvdHb
going to answer me, so let's get back to work," said Collins turning 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52AV8rkz1o
away from us and heading towards the console.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDiRY2Y8s0
"We will work on the backup vocals," said Collins. "Zoey, Sam and Christine, you're up."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKiu1fGknd
I looked at the others 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvMPSV7jfp
who hadn't said a word. We all looked at each other. Someone had to do 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3CWUMirsnT
something or else we would be toast.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8lq9ktFCrG
"Are we going to start?" Collins asked looking behind him as he turned on his chair. "Where is Zoey?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoo5tXVajjn
It was about time he noticed. It looks like we ourselves weren't ready to tell him that Zoey is missing.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ4U4nIkUxy
"What's wrong with you, guys? Why aren't you saying anything?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVURNo93q3p
"Zoey isn't here," said Mike.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3VYVgcoXB
"Ya, I can see that. Where is she?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqazxxFpCH
"She wasn't feeling too well," I said. "So she went back to the hotel."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOxkoRIeUq
"What? Did she eat something bad for lunch?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4LZwUNrvY3
"Ya. She did," said G-Dragon.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrf6TQmdoUm
"So, do you think we should continue or do this tomorrow when Zoey is around?" I asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFurI7g9z5
"We should just do this tomorrow," the music producer suggested, turning to Collins.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9ZqynD8WL
Please say yes. I was praying in my heart that Collins would agree. This time I wasn't relying on my eye to do anything.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNPLeJzS94
"Fine," said Collins. "We really need Zoey, so we should just do it tomorrow."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9szF79tli
Mike and Daniel almost 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxMIMQnCzb
jumped with relief but they managed to control themselves. Christine 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIOXwDvFgw8
turned around so that Collins and the music producer wouldn't notice her848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPUzBe8UNp9
sighing in relief. The rest of us just stood there, pocker faced.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZsiPcb7nIH
"That's fine," said Taeyang.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxgMy2FLrw
"I really wanted us to be done with this today," said Collins.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4uiNoZeuAF
"Looks like it wasn't meant to be," said TOP.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrspaoD13nq
Ya. It wasn't meant to be. Looks like we were lucky. That meant we could look around for Zoey.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnWeKWtamFr
"You guys can go back to the hotel and make sure Zoey is okay," said Collins.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ85SWVaoOj7
"I'll go," said Christine. "The others can stay here if they want to."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqHcgH8Y69
Christine was doing the 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVizOVvDON
right thing. If she went to the hotel, Collins wouldn't be so suspicious848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡioIS0tNdNq
of what's going on and just in case he decides to go back there at 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6aEi8aVSPE
anytime, Christine might cover up for Zoey.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfpTsEzwT5S
"Okay and what will the rest of you all be doing?" Collins asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj2tBaCiyIw
"Chilling," G-Dragon and I replied at the same time. We both looked at each other afterwards.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQtxeppbN7
"Fine, I have some other things to attend to. I might just go and check up on Lee and Yang Hyun-suk."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdz2e0D7oNO
I wanted to ask where, 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5uiG5SVIdN
but I knew it was none of my business. I realised that I hadn't seen Lee848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MbXxSwdJ3
the whole day. Must be she was busy with Yang Hyun-suk. Collins and the848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikg3aRLsac
music producer soon left.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzB209xdK1j
I walked over to the door and checked if Collins and the music producer were in the hall. But they were gone.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11C7tp1OQq
"Looks like we have to split up and look for Zoey," said Taeyang.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHTd8iZtee
"Ya, we should," I 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmZ4DVOVqL
nodded my head. "G-Dragon and I will take Christine to the hotel just in848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4NMkZeA437
case Zoey shows up and if Collins decides to go there."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMUC6yCnVB
"I'll go with Taeyang," said Daniel.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zyawcWOD6
"And I go with Seungri," said Mike.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJEdICmxGa
"That leaves Daesung and I," said TOP.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHBp0wsgoE
"Great, let's go," I said and we all walked out of the room.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rK7rmZmh7
As soon as we left the 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaUHdITUDpm
YG building, we split up in the parking lot. Luckily, Collins had 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8MURVxVNGd
already left. Christine and I went with G-Dragon in his car. It was 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlowIIHG4Q
important that I had to talk to G-Dragon concerning Zoey.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyDjOQls1f
We soon arrived at the hotel and Christine got out of the car. I gave her my phone for it to be charged.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw38TqV5OX3
"Call us if anything good happens," I said I looked at Christine through the window.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUpWoQF50yo
"And what if something bad happens?" Christine asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtLHdp5LRJp
"Like Collins? You can handle it," I said as I gave her a smile. Christine winked and wished us luck.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVcF4Y9aVJB
G-Dragon drove away and 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg56EWfmbMf
we first went to the park where he came with Zoey after lunch. I just 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLRsrBzMgjI
hope she didn't go that far and that she was okay.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1OrnpRjPOS
"Did you two have some sort of argument?" I asked when we both got out of the car and I went round it to face him.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqluk8xbyY9
"What?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9wz9Amu3ge
"Did you two argue?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEYyWAtvhQ8
"No, we didn't," said G-Dragon as he went around me and started walking towards the park.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6cZqxrcV9v
I quickly turned and followed him. When I caught up with him, I stood in front of him to stop him.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsgH7hixPd8
"Are you telling me the truth?" I asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJr1h9LDnZ
"Do you think I am lying?" G-Dragon asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVGiCOXzWvF
"I think so." I said with my arms folded.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTfpuwrCKfe
"You're crazy," said G-Dragon as he walked around me again.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuoSLdLBlRS
I huffed. He wasn't going to budge. I had to try something to get the truth out of him.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfplLMbJIO
With quick strides, I 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCKCboCyDl
caught up with him again. This time I started to walk backwards so that I848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7RDVtRS78d
could look at him directly in his face.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKY9J2uJtV
"What are you doing?" G-Dragon asked as he looked at me, puzzled.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIM32S2G3Hb
"I want you to tell me the truth."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxAQKwhkmG
"You're stressing yourself out by walking backwards."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFq7qVP2Sq
"Do I care?" I raised an eyebrow at him. "I know you're hiding something from me."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3NwuQnXAKd
G-Dragon chuckled and 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ398FDLtnb
that almost made me smile. "Stop playing detective, my little kitty. As 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrKEWogFdP
much as it suits you, you're going to trip over and fall."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5UytgcgNaw
"Then you have to stop me from walking backwards by answering my question."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfKu1e5zrw
"This is one silly method of interrogation if you ask me."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3Nbm33pfA
"I can tell you're not telling me something. Zoey can't just leave like that without someone upsetting her."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2fvUvJ4Iv4
"And how do you know?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDkwMDNEXX
"I'm her best friend. 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI8xZoWV0v7
And plus, whenever someone gets her really upset, she runs off without 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYotWBrIIDO
telling anyone. She always wants be alone to think."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfcJdDX4rd
"I hope she doesn't think of committing suicide."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPIAitiKxzb
"Zoey can't end her 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDIcuxXkpgH
life. Well, she hasn't tried to anyway. She's leaving the dream right 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjP85l0vqj1
now and ending her life this early, isn't going to sound right. Unless 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMkZF19qJU
you did something."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4gCCOInenf
"Me?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ZI0ByeQhJ
"Da! Yes, you!"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡec9ijCmZvW
"What could I possibly have done for Zoey to try and commit suicide?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCvtjNVK9I
"Don't talk about suicide like that." I hit him on the arm.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEnsnbJz8N
"Ouch!" G-Dragon stopped and held his arm. "That hurts!"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71DSLNU5e9
"Well, you deserve it. Now tell me the truth." I put my hands on my hips.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm10u4XjGtG
"I'm telling you, Zoey and I didn't argue."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGdIMAvmvh
G-Dragon looked me in the eye and he seemed really convincing.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡECu4BkEDTt
"Okay. I believe you," I said. "But you must have said something that upset her."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUohv6FUi8i
"I can't really remember what I had said to her. Maybe she just left on her own."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0yPWaXHYJp
"And with her phone off, that's a bit strange, don't you think?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBoqMGoQvl8
"When we find her we will ask why she ran off."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRulM5Faio
"Ya. Sure."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWNz3wCdAD
"Now, will you please 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUYzdiLVIw8
stop walking backwards? I don't want you to trip and save you from 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBNeplER77
falling. That will spark rumours again like it did during the 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzfqT5vjRgn
interview."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡukzFdienNU
I didn't say anything, 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZLgMjaZRI
so I just nodded my head and faced forward. We went further into the 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC9nCfw5S42
park and as we looked around for Zoey, we sparked some attention from 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7LOX9hCz7J
our darling fans. We signed a few autographs and took a few pictures and848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdfcw7UYCaF
went on with our search. We even asked some fans if they had seen Zoey,848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOoJCxYMbIH
but nothing.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcmnxLYflLQ
We were already half way into the park and still no sign of Zoey. We were by the lake and I sat down on the grass by the banks.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa60jVoTH6k
"Are you tired already?" G-Dragon asked as he looked down on me.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAw48ylfxBx
"I'm not," I said as I 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVGjXXMFf3
removed my slippers and felt comfortable with my bare feet on the grass.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIRcfGzLJ1c
"I'm trying to figure out where Zoey could be."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNcrqErPug
G-Dragon sat down beside848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvWCyvBKpm
me and the two of us were silent, looking at the pond. Laughter filled 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5UfHU6liU
my ears as I saw a group of kids playing from across the pond. Some 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLnAucrO06W
couples also sat on the grass close to the pond. It was such a beautiful848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡneE5ozUh6S
day and sitting by the pond felt so relieving.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITu0npCqNR
"Have you figured something yet?" G-Dragon asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1I3MhL9EfR
I frowned and looked at him. "No, why do you ask?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuM6enzdE3p
"You seem to be smiling to yourself," said G-Dragon as he looked at me.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ098wpKrG6c
"No, I'm actually enjoying what I'm experiencing right now."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJSwEDu4OqS
"You love nature, don't you?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0UgrZzD8R7
I closed my eyes, still smiling. "Ya. I really do."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxrIxGadUT
At that moment, I was so848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBXcCLw434g
caught in the little world inside my head. For a moment, I forgot about848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjfpurGhhd1
everything. About looking for Zoey, being famous, and the whole world 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOlVzaUxQAO
with everyone and everything in it. It's like they never existed because848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo3ORWggrJA
even the noise around me seemed non existent.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtgQH8TrO2
Then I felt something 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgfbR8MEWQm
brush against my hand like a soft feather. The touch brought me back to 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4EFIU14QMG
reality and I quickly opened my eyes. I looked beside me and G-Dragon 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhgcPNh16oK
was staring at me.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLj6JlFnCq4
"What?" I asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmyUsNKI0Ps
"Has anyone ever told you how beautiful you are?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4k66iPHfm
I blushed all of the 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDyjA88aDV
sudden and I looked down. His hand covered mine and for a moment I 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl2Ekvep9kV
wanted to pull away. But then again, I couldn't explain how I felt with 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ50K1XYeUmN
his hand on mine. I felt this weird comfort.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJHnRkisg0
I would have said yes to848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJX5Zjxyc5
his question, but no words came out. This wasn't right. As much as I 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxpnYBtMviP
wanted him close to me, I knew I would end up getting hurt because we 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8fhBcYKJzv
were never meant to be.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIj3A0Jvy3l
"Umm," I pulled my hand away and put it closer to my body. "Please don't say that GD."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xjDsgYNm5
"Why?" He asked softly.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNmvrO6iI8
"Because this isn't right at all and you know it."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafTaMRfoT2
"What do you mean?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DSSzjpYsd
"You know that I ready know about Zoey and you. You guys are more like a couple."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmDtPFzM9u
"So?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUx3pTAousO
"I want you to stay far away from me as possible. The further we are apart, the better it is for the both of us."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7OiEevyaZ
"Looks like you figured out that I don't really like Zoey as such as I like you."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK71WNBwu6Q
I didn't say anything as I continued to figure out what to say next.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoRSoOCnoEz
"Then why are you leading Zoey on? She doesn't deserve this, you know?" I asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2HZEO5SwOd
"I know."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkWEcasmeK
"Then why are you doing this?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjI9etJq6X
G-Dragon looked at me like he never had before. He soon looked away and sighed.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj2r7SskvOW
"I'm doing this because of you, Sam. But even if I do so, I still can't get you out of my head."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZK4lxE8LMX
I also looked the other way, trying to act like those words hadn't affected me. But they did and they did so badly.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzmcR5rSZe4
"You should find another848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBUFwCTlzb
way to do so, GD." I turned to look back at him and he faced me. "But 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1dQCLlJbHJ
not with Zoey. I don't want her getting hurt because of the both of us. I848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1bHWuZFCj
will never forgive myself."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7OztbL8tpV
G-Dragon nodded his head. "I'll do so."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6JGjqf2jG
I wanted to smile but I 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ERlI0n7aE
couldn't bring myself to do it. I hoped he kept his word and maybe with 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaOpIExQHao
this little talk we've had, we would be friends again and stop acting 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBC9uz02EOV
like we had beef with each other.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjqJTtUYnT1
Just as I was about to 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJyEJtuCb5
ask him why he had been giving me the attitude lately and if it had 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl5MvhsjvpO
anything to do with his jealousy, his phone rang. He quickly removed it 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4UWcyLObUx
from his pocket and answered it.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpAqpUlLyO
"Hello? Christine?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEIwW1CeAXP
I was now attentive. Had she found Zoey? I wished I could have talked to her myself.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorcR2yUA7N
"Okay, we will be right there. Inform the others as well."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufNvTmm6BU
"What happened?" I asked after he cut the call.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28mk4fBFU1
"Christine called to tell me that she knows where Zoey is."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCcLpnd7GWE
"Where is she?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEYSCNoAUJu
"She is at a famous café. I know where it is."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxgoZTuOJbp
"But how did Christine know where Zoey is?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4KwNNbWWt
"Zoey's phone went back on and she texted where she was. And she is not alone."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIoyZppBPbC
"Who is she with?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWbkKXiQsx
"We're about to find out. Let's go."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjtgdiR1Pyl
G-Dragon got up from the848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspXbSteWC7
ground and he held out his hand to me. I took it and he pulled me up 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRreI2Q8KSr
from the ground. We left the park together, heading towards his car.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPR3tkp3hC
When we got in his car, 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH20yhYqxRO
we drove through the city and we arrived at this small fancy café. We 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKuHpA5zcvo
parked across the street and before we could get out of the car, I 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOWHYOSwFYx
looked across towards the café.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHXuP7OsBJO
"Can you see, Zoey?" G-Dragon asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpYsqAMHeXa
Through the huge window,848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoniuBTSze4
I could see what was going on inside. Looked like a lot of people 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJ1CHfoiSx
enjoyed coming over to the café. The place was parked for an ordinary 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCaQFNr80Y0
day in the afternoon.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKo1WGtdQto
I searched for Zoey, but848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSI857bXIfI
I couldn't see her. It was then that I saw Zoey at the far corner of 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMa080jQu9
the café. She was facing the window side and I saw her with someone. 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3k0tlcWpLx
Sitting opposite her was a man in a fancy looking black suit. From afar,848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPu4UBeoXyR
I could tell his suit was expensive and I couldn't see his face.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFffdcYlIHF
"I see her," I said. "And she is definitely with someone."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXtOFm4SxY
"Who is it?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyEUqHPfLXX
"I don't know. By the look of his suit, he seems like a business man or one rich tycoon."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqYh5K5kR0L
"Seriously?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu0bogUyH2W
"You think I'm kidding?" I turned to look at him. "Or are you now jealous that Zoey is hanging out with someone who isn't you?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8G4VjtPB5
G-Dragon looked towards the windshield, avoiding my gaze. "No, I'm not. I'm just wondering who it was, that's all."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsciRdqeqP
I rolled my eyes and 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzNeoLUBpBh
said nothing more. I went back to looking at the café and focused on 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2DIQw4cwT
Zoey. I decided to read her body language and see if she was okay. She 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz6oDmBzoD4
looked like she was enjoying herself, chatting with this stranger.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgi4hTkH0a
She was sipping her cup 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq3thxjOiam
of coffee and she went back to smiling at the stranger. Something was a 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6LZtKYy7m
bit off and I shifted on my seat to see if I was seeing right.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfEXt4e6sGo
"Hey, is something wrong?" G-Dragon asked, noticing my tension.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIGHx7Ydptd
"Ya."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyTSuw6MZ9o
G-Dragon also turned on his seat and looked through the window.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlY2xI0PEKd
Zoey's smile made me 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVRrUyhidl
wonder what was going on. She was smiling and chatting but she looked a 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCaNc694do5
little nervous. Usually when she is with a guy, she was always the one 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJp3fnbBx6
who was never scared of leading the conversation and became pretty848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3hZUdU0eT8
comfortable with the person. Unless the guy was creepy enough to be a serial killer.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0IdBPoOrz
I felt a threat coming 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZXJGV7gkxM
up. Was this guy dangerous? Zoey had a nervous smile on her face and if I848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzsG7h0QxeS
was not mistaken, I think I noticed her fingers tap frantically on the 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxZ2fTMGj2
table. She did that whenever she was nervous. I had to know what was 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtZugNa2LD
going on in there.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeG5h4h57LY
"Let's go," I said as I turned to look at G-Dragon. "I'm not liking this."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVKyOvMa15
"Thank you," said G-Dragon, looking relieved. "I had a bad feeling about this guy."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZP4lQhe8d
"Ya, right," I said as I grabbed the handle of the door, opened it and stepped out.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qKRlDZ4Li
Just as G-Dragon came 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAC5IH855lL
out of the car, three cars appeared off the main road and came to park 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQohoNp9ZVQ
in the parking space behind G-Dragon's car. The others had arrived.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMdZABKHZa
"Christine told us to meet you here," said Taeyang as he and Mike came out of his car.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwhKplWauDb
"Zoey's in the café," I said as I pointed across the road.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKF71jaweC
"Alright, let's go," said Seungri.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9I2nmdexoy
When I looked back at the café window, I noticed that Zoey was all alone on her table. That was odd. Where was he?848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc1FwpZ0g3C
"Oh, no, no, no," I said staring wide eyed inside the café.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2baoUW26t
"What is it, Sam?" Daesung asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdNtAGt15NV
I didn't answer him as I848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaIxWhVOhYI
quickly dashed across the road without even checking for any cars. I 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEW2MBW8Z7
could hear the others behind call out to me to be careful. I luckily 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjIeDHy5Bpb
managed to reach the café without getting hit.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0FgWJ9vWsW
When I got to the café, a848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0XGQs0qWoa
few people came out through the door. None of them matched the person 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6XZATGJrU
who was in the café with Zoey. I quickly went in and I found Zoey still 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXsHkrPmiaC
sitting in the corner. I rushed over to her that my presence scared her.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA1c2Op1F3c
"Sam! You scared me to death!" Zoey held her chest as she breathed in and out so heavily, trying to calm down.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmeuhfUgFZ
"Where did you go?" I asked, taking the seat the stranger had been sitting on earlier.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62lxkgtceN
"Oh, I...um.." Zoey played with her fingers.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ927PQV19z8
"Don't you dare try to 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9U3qPzTSXp
lie to me, Zoey," I threatened. "You went with GD for lunch and the two 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGsEg28yPAZ
of you went to the park. When GD went to get ice cream, you had 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUp6wKnWdS
disappeared. And the next thing we know, you're here."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7UC6dUWR7x
"Christine told you where I was?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7IXWt3ip8t
"Of course she had to. We were worried sick."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1nReowU6Xb
I heard the bell of the 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ZRPjspIAG
café ring and I knew the others had arrived. They soon came over by the 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYtg3kAPgkw
table. Only Taeyang, G-Dragon and Daniel were the ones who came in.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLaELKSJURd
"Zoey where have you been?" Daniel asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kcFV1pZfz
"And who was that guy you were with, huh?" G-Dragon asked, looking down at Zoey with a frown on his face.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3jRhXPBLt
"Awww, are you jealous, my G-Dragon?" Zoey smiled at him.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4PFSNr54dk
"Stop taking all this 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmlgVT1ldL3
like a joke, Zoey. I saw the way you were behaving with him. You weren't848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOpQed4HxK
yourself when I saw you from across the street," I said.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEEtEy5JAbz
The smile on Zoey's face848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xAuQ3EsDJ
disappeared in an instant. Good. Maybe now she would take us seriously.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsV7jaQ5Lru
Her safety was way more important than she could ever imagine. If 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHl7cEXfTaY
anything had happened to her, a lot of us here would never forgive 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiuguxnaSVy
ourselves.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp3Lux9Bd24
"Can we please get out of here?" Taeyang suggested. "This isn't the place to discuss this."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7Qa1dsjvO
"You're right," I said 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3jAnvQz12
as I looked around the café and many heads were turning our way. I hated848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8VfBYnRM5
attracting so much attention sometimes.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJmbhsX33P1
The others had started 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFfbDL8M0M
to leave and Zoey and I both stood up from the table. I noticed the 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXh4jtpcpoV
teacup the stranger had used and my mind still couldn't stop thinking 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GvSF0hBim
about who he was.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6BW9cU3zr
After we left the café, 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3BVRh8JYM0
we went back across the road where the vehicles were parked. Daesung, 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNjmraPz2f
TOP, Mike and Daesung stood waiting for us.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmiYf8eHX3d
"Thank goodness, you're alright, Zoey," said Daesung.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtm3wy07mi
"Ya, thank goodness you weren't lost," said Mike. "We wondered if we would find you in a ditch or something."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxIAkMxXa4G
Zoey frowned at Mike and all he could do was smile back at her mischievously.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPn0Xsjv81q
"Let's all go back to the hotel, shall we?" I suggested. "Zoey can tell us everything from there."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjOiS3AxHSF
Zoey and I went in 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ90WiWc7JAK
G-Dragon's car making sure I sat in the backseat. The others got in the 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTr9hO4MTu0
other cars and we drove off, G-Dragon's car leading the way.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDLLrIIzil
We were all back in the 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26DzplKs7t
hotel on our floor. Luckily, Collins wasn't around. I was relieved. Now I848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVvo2q5kxw
could vent out all my anger on Zoey.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFCncmvwNRb
We gathered ourselves in848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡetPAoKMCaU
the lounge. The others sat on the couch and made themselves 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjhCeWZ2SL2
comfortable. Zoey and I were left standing and I looked at her, with my 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiA9OBhnXtr
hands on my hips.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVUczP58aj
"Okay, let's start with why you disappeared?" I asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARdm4eCrwp
"No, don't ask that," said G-Dragon. "Ask who she was with first."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1J2RluO6G
"I'm the one asking the questions." I turned to face G-Dragon. "I want to know what made her go like that."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv1PnsX3SrJ
"Fine, I tell you," said848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAaViMGzt1N
Zoey raising her hand to calm me down. "G-Dragon went over to get some 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI0E1IQYnuy
ice cream when a person came up to me. Said he was my biggest fan."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xBgvktn4J
"Don't tell me you fell for the person's good looks like always," said Christine shaking her head.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ00LVKQtjt
"You know handsome men are my weakness," said Zoey. "Sorry G-Dragon."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqMAhWb0pw
"No, I don't mind," said848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjjV5jwb13h
G-Dragon, shaking his head. I looked at him again and I was surprised 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjzv2OoAzLl
with the look on his face that he really didn't mind at all.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXcQ5PQ31aR
"So, he said he is your biggest fan and then what?" Taeyang asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQoKpk7zoYj
"He offered that the two of us go out for some coffee," said Zoey. "That's how I left."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU6pZjrQD45
"Now that makes no sense or maybe you have no sense, Zoey," said Seungri.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5bjcsfx6aT
"Huh?" Zoey looked at Seungri, looking embarrassed.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1dbGqTT00v
"As much as that sounds 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2v4wBUimU
totally embarrassing, Seungri is right," said Christine. "What you said 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNB5nLWh36a
doesn't make sense at all. How could you go out for coffee with someone 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKwP2ElFdoT
you claims to be your fan without taking G-Dragon along with you?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx9tHW4urNI
I started to tap my foot848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyT1ty5KWZ3
and looked at Zoey, ready to breathe out fire if necessary. Christine 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0KR1vfU3u
was right and surprisingly, Seungri too. She wasn't telling us the 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD8LQMenTVG
truth.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqgke6HVWrR
"Come on, Zoey, tell us 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZixMEVB3aF
what really happened," I said. "You couldn't leave without GD. And you 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQdvV22py53
had your phone turned off. All I know about the person you were with is 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ976jRglDfi
that he was wearing an expensive black suit."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDaxmciWB0l
"Okay, do you really want to know the truth?" Zoey asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjTjU2v5mh1
"Yes!" everyone replied at the same time, that almost made Zoey jump in fright.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjXkPxZZTpk
"Okay, okay, eish," said848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpyBpsnRVxU
Zoey. "You scared the hell out of me. The truth is, I went with my fan 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFggdRBmR3
because he insisted that I go with him and not tell anyone about it."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5qPYI6MtDD
"Huh?" TOP looked confused.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW39ReS2EcY
"What fan lays out that kind of condition?" Mike asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNNqVBp7MW
"Someone who was ready to take advantage of Zoey," I answered.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGo4I4nsVu
"If he did, you guys still wouldn't have found me," said Zoey.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVIuaNIXawD
"If he did, you wouldn't have been looking so nervous in the café."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjR1jP4tVrj
Zoey was quiet and I still felt that she wasn't telling us the whole truth. I decided to play along and not say a word.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCMfZ2Odnhp
"Then what were you two talking about?" I asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx3elqOvKk6
"Just stuff," said Zoey, avoiding my eyes. "About me and my celebrity life."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO7i5JSooNJ
"You're sure?" I asked. "Didn't he talk about himself?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjP3o6D9tP9
"Ya, totally." Zoey nodded her head. He never said anything about himself. Not even his name."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29Px0d1a50
"Then why did you look so nervous in the café?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZXwmMCryF
"He was asking some personal questions I didn't like."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4J494POyeq
"Are you sure?" Daniel 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW79njKBMS9
asked. "When someone asks you a personal question, you either snap back 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHPWLt5fmF
at them or walk away. Whether it's an annoying reporter, any of your 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgCCAUXyol
haters or even us."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRN1Y6mLmu
Daniel was right. Zoey 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡByN9sUkzuq
would have stood and walked away from the stranger but she didn't. I 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLi4eRCL8U
wondered what question he might have asked her. That's if Zoey was 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4lR3YSWFf3
telling the truth.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKlY3N0Hru3
"I didn't want to look so mean in front of him," said Zoey. "He seemed like a very nice guy."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEW2O6MsgnH
"A very nice guy that 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpX4BoZc0L
made you run off with him, made you switch off your phone and made you 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwK0KyrfqQF
so uncomfortable," said G-Dragon, looking really irritated.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOxgqUjhgE
"Come on," said Zoey. "He wasn't that bad, seriously."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKByw762l7o
I didn't want to 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBYt3unlTXd
pressurise Zoey with more questions. Right now, she was getting away 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9fRp3fH519
with it. If she was hiding something, I would find out sooner or later.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV0WQDmXzTS
"Okay," I said. "We're just glad you're fine."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegdVYNf61I
"And not dead," said 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXNNvUaGCsh
Mike with a smirk. Seungri and Christine who sat on either side of him, 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDby8CXvmZC
both gave him the elbow in the side and he howled in pain.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6aWXhaIeXG
"I'll pretend I never heard that," said Zoey.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSTcIqDG0J
"And you better get 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjAmIfo5H9V
ready for Collins," I said giving Zoey a smirk of my own. "We told him 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFm4puKRxbu
you had a bad tummy ache and that's why you weren't at the studio."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1nzP1X8zxB
"Seriously?" Zoey gave me an angry stare. "Couldn't you have told him a better lie?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZ9UfwPMlv
"That you were missing? Fat chance. You've already put some of us into enough trouble for one day."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqi6RPLTpcC
"Alright. Sorry. I won't do that again."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08dQGGDS3w
I rolled my eyes, while shaking my head and went over to the dining table. Something told me it wouldn't be the last.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9llboXviDv
"Well, now that you're found," said Daesung, as he stood up. "Some of us better get going."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYEXXZzWMOa
"Sorry for putting you guys into so much trouble," said Zoey.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7UjmTXkKMK
"As long as you're fine and Collins isn't going to kill us, it's okay," said Taeyang with a smile.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7D0jTO0ni
"I'll be leaving too," said Seungri and he gave Zoey a hug and he walked over to hug me as well.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwps1YXid6G
"Alright, see you tomorrow," I said.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXHjJkpaFF
One by one the BigBang 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡakZLbuoGLG
members started to leave, saying bye to each other. G-Dragon stayed 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0uKQgnAUZ9
behind with Zoey so that they could talk a little. Giving them privacy, 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnG8rvujjmN
Christine, my brothers and I left for our rooms.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wrNURBx7E
When I went in my room, I848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRAHXcHkryR
went for my phone that was still charging on my bed. The phone was 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Fm39rkBdS
still off and I decided to switch it on. It was almost full.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh3xlpHmylw
There was a knock on the door and I called out to the person to come in. Christine entered.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkBgM5NBB0
"Hey, can we talk?" Christine asked as she closed the door behind her.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemJRSHtwB3
"About what?" I turned to look at her.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjV4wjt3ZZ
"Do you really believe what Zoey told us?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYFO3xoITEK
"No, I don't." I sat on the bed.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Q2y6vMWrv
"Looks like I'm not the only one," said Christine as she came to sit on Zoey's bed, facing me.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRD2Izit7Tl
"I wonder why she isn't telling us the truth."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh35q9XTNye
"Did you see the man's face?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkSSqLjFoZ
"No. All I could say is that he wore a fancy and expensive suit."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL6oQ1drgLT
"I wonder who he is. Maybe he is some rich tycoon or something."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZwddFyfWhE
"That's what I thought too." I gave Christine a smile.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOtGo58LDn
"I bet he is good 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHm4PhWHs5h
looking too. I still wonder why Zoey left like that without telling 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2RZY8bG5fc
anyone. Do you think she really did all that just because the stranger 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5qn0LA5PI
told her to?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBZPiNouDa
"Well, I believe her on that part. I'm just wondering how he managed to convince her to come with him. Maybe he threatened her?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLPXvncy64
Christine's jaw dropped. "Don't say that. I know there is no any other logical explanation, but I think that's way too far."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTONhpaZPAD
"You said so yourself, Christine. There is no other explanation. He might have blackmailed her or something."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCe9ZSV8lw
"Okay, but blackmailed her with what?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV78kGqKRJM
"That we have to find out."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2RNlQfXhKg
I was just about to grab my phone and check out if I had any messages when Zoey came in the room.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU1ryNsm2jj
"Oh. Has GD left already?" Christine asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJO2fU6qnkJ
"Ya. He left," Zoey replied. I heard a bit of sadness in her voice.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC7R7OuhuNo
"Are you okay? You don't look alright," I said.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡewseuI8sz0
"I'm fine. G-Dragon and I talked about something serious."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIfVzwTTpMF
Oh my. Had he told her 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOrxld3rmya
about what we had discussed earlier at the park? As much as I knew it 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4U9nkZEFXm
was going to hurt Zoey, it was for the best. Besides, she was going to 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeVRVEGmZHQ
find someone way better than G-Dragon. Hopefully, even me.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbDkbF85xAf
"What did you talk about?" I asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6HknuNM7I
"He was just pissed that848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfUsN2dzaf
I left like that," Zoey answered. "He thought maybe he said something 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ90ZGV3aJA6
that might have upset me or something."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGRgJy3K0UI
"Oh." That wasn't what I was expecting. "Well, I had asked him earlier if he had said something that might have upset you."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIbsvwoY465
"But he didn't."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡina9F7bj9G
"I see why Sam asked," 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm1XwTrrnOV
said Christine. "When someone gets you so upset, you run away. You've 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfb09FcQbUT
done that many times before back home during our school days, you know?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFxyNG4Slr
"Ya I know. Forget about it." Zoey waved her hand in annoyance. "What's happened has happened."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJCiERsuAL
And I hope it will never848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN1fhoFA8AD
happen again, but this guy in the suit still worried me. Until I know 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFYxCl18MRm
who he is, I wasn't going to pretend that the worst has passed when it 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrO3vwwADbh
was yet to come at any moment.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡukA3A4oxWk
The next thing I knew, the door to our room flew open and Lee walked in.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQkXt8eIeHG
"Lee!" the three of us exclaimed in excitement.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZF2ah26jmZ
"Wow! Did you guys miss me?" Lee asked with a smile on her face.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsAMqmh0MY
"Ya, we did," said Zoey, putting her arm over Lee's shoulders.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYrYs8C4Hj5
"Well, I missed you too," said Lee. "So, what happened today? I heard you never finished up on the song."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡybL0fv5QSG
Christine, Zoey and I 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfpeurXWJQ
shook our heads and talked randomly at the same time, saying nothing 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQaL6YxtiN
really happened. Lee knew something was up and even if it could clearly 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH7HZfE8HoM
show on her face, she didn't push us. She just smiled.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwngwsKrQXO
"Well, you'll tell me later," said Lee. "Collins and I were just....."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7tFAfkZK6P
"Collins is here!" Zoey's face went white like a sheet.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCKrQSHVpt
"Yes, he is," said Lee 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZqSmzhQPQ
with a wicked smile. "Now if you don't want to get into trouble, I 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGY704wNFoh
suggest you go on your bed and cry out that you still aren't feeling 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwgjvJbXRyy
well."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUHpbHCM7NL
Christine and I almost burst out laughing. Zoey frowned.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKNNRya1IT
"Ha, ha, very funny," said Zoey as she went over to her bed and sat down.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE9Mk10Sq65
"As I was saying," said Lee. "We were in the lobby when we received a package from the receptionist. Said it was for you guys."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKw5aROkJYg
"Us?" I asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJbHTh2oQAZ
"Ya, the letter on the package was directed to The Toxins. It's with Collins in the lounge."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs9NEiZ9Q0N
Christine and I rushed 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg1VS6AE9G0
out of the room leaving Zoey with Lee. She had to pretend she was still 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegicsufVJi
not feeling well. We found Collins in the lounge with the package in his848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHsDP9HiWG
hand.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPj0C7dRasK
"Hey, Collins," I said. "What's that?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOQEKmThYY
"This came in for you guys," said Collins. "And with a letter too."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7bg4SW90o
"Did I hear there is something for us?" Daniel asked as he and Mike came in the lounge.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdUwIZ1uj5d
"Ya. Here you go." Collins gave me the package.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYbyV3z8SVx
The package was wrapped in a brown wrapper and on top of it was a white envelope. It was directed to us just as Lee said.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcw74MrWKVV
I took the letter and 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFchiXuJYa
gave the package for Christine to hold and opened the envelope to remove848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGQDF88iva
a letter. I unfolded the letter and I read it out loud:848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgbwMRNwydB
"Hope you're all okay. Just wanted to say I'm your biggest fan. With lots of love."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtiwAAeH63
"That's it?" Mike asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvRUrTcFAZi
"Ya, that's pretty much it," I said, looking behind the letter but there was nothing. "No name at all."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7S7uNGYi3s
"Did you see anyone who sent this?" Daniel asked Collins.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmyWBtwQfvK
"All that the 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TDZFrZmVP
receptionist told us was that some young man in a suit gave it to her 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWrr4zpu3mh
and she should give either you guys or us when we came by the lobby."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRflTwB5xIL
My eyes went wide and my848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQqFUKnFr8
heart pace quickened. Did Collins just say a young man in a suit? Maybe848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIBX7uSnmBc
I heard wrong and needed some clarification.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkfM9y4BSFd
"A young man in a suit?" Mike asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5YlFRYQ31X
"Ya. Do you perhaps know him?" Collins asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkkEwuSHgp
"Huh, no," said Christine, shaking her head.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpITslZ1ma0
"Oh. For a moment there, you guys looked a little frightened," said Collins. "I thought you might know him."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwabVzIuIqh
We did know him all right. The man who had been with Zoey. But who really was this guy? And this package? What could be in it?848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfBeMNTmje4
"Open it, Christine," said Daniel.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0zh99dWEjD
Christine threw Daniel 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQtazUcXKj
an angry glance. She obviously didn't want to open it and I knew what 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6f9DT1M4X
she was thinking. What if there was a bomb inside? Or maybe something to848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6GIdcw3jyy
threaten or blackmail us? You could only think of the worst from a 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡucvoihpb0F
person you barely even knew.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxFxEuWetQ
"Let me," I said as I took the package from Christine and I sat down on the couch with the package on my lap.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7LiDUpNWs
Collins was watching us for a second and then left the lounge. I sighed in relief and so did the others.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BwZYm6tKo
"I thought he would never leave," Mike whispered after we heard the door to Collins' room open and close.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtNFusGIw7
"Can you check if he is really in his room?" I asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3CAJzxSYt
Mike went in the hall and came back seconds later. "He is in the room."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5pX3HgCmZ
"I'm really nervous," said Christine. "What is in there?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVqmqoCwBE
"I don't know," said Daniel. "I hope it is nothing that could kill us."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLqMvFX0j4
Mike hit Daniel at the back of his head and Daniel whined in pain.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfpUZveMuIO
"Don't say that," said Mike. "I don't want to die soon."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9xEFTYQuN
"Guys, calm down," I said. "Let's just open this thing and see what's in it."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwhBLQjq4l8
"Okay, but take your 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW2wlpvTe6L
time," said Christine. "If there is a bomb in there, I want to say my 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8obFTgo57f
last prayers before I leave this earth."848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCB8VKtb2jj
I rolled my eyes but I 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuuMKwvRdoj
was as scared as the rest of them. If we were to make out of this alive,848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx58rzRu5Ek
I was going to kill Zoey myself for dragging us into this mess.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GlMZ6Cfka
I started to unwrap the package. It was a white box.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡthfYw8aQtV
The other three couldn't848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFmz1WG2NZ
stop staring at the box and I needed to end this paranoia once and for 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq9YT6FUHxR
all. I quickly removed the lid without thinking that there might be 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTgJ046Qf3h
something dangerous in the box. The others even covered their faces. But848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOrCsZney08
nothing happened.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvtVaj3089j
"What the....?" I looked in the box and what I saw, shocked me completely.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ616UymMtRm
"What is it?" Christine asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2TK04Pz42v
I looked up at the 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡguKtcx59by
others and they bended over to see what was in the box. Their jaws 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIDevVAjKm
dropped almost at the same time and we looked at each other.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbehCaFRTK
"This is just ridiculous," I said as I shook my head.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb1TRnKOfar
Christine, Mike and Daniel suddenly burst out laughing.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5bB0o89IX5
Zoey and Lee came rushing into the lounge.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8hDt4p9gdW
"Hey? What's going on?" Zoey asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFCUaBKlox
No one answered. I was too speechless to say anything and the rest were still laughing.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxNzIVSJBg8
"What is in the package, Sam?" Lee asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbOzLDr0RgW
I soon removed a little cute brown teddy bear and held it up for Zoey and Lee to see.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY9sM021WX3
"Huh? You're laughing all because of a teddy bear?" Zoey looked at the others, wondering if they were okay in the head.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVN6cQs8d3
"Oh, my goodness, Zoey," said Christine trying to catch her breath with tears in her eyes. "Can't you see it?"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA3x2h79mAh
"See what?" Zoey and Lee asked the same time.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMfbDdH2p7h
"The...the...suit!" Mike laughed even more, pointing at the teddy bear.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6weGvZFMj
It was then that Zoey 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZFtHVrVVP
looked at the bear in my hand and recognised that the tiny teddy bear 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTmBmjPXjf
wore a tiny black suit with a tiny black tie. Zoey looked like she was 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcN9fb52LXe
about to get sick. Looked like she already figured out it was the848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwqUduVJz7H
stranger who she was with today that sent it.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1F4nQwLkz
"Guys, what am I missing here?" Lee asked.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJKNARA1l0
"Zoey will tell you all about it," I said. "I believe this is yours." I gave the teddy bear to Zoey who held it in her hand.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡszFMexq1jI
The other three continued to laugh when they saw Zoey take the bear. Lee looked as confused as ever.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJrXFyHUoM
"And here I thought it was a bomb," said Daniel, wiping away the tears in his eyes.848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovXmeuhyyS
"Ya. But it just turned out to be a bear in a suit," said Christine. "A harmless bear!"848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcoaPOMRRb4
This time, they laughed 848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM0zqEkmetr
even louder and I couldn't help but start laughing too. A minute ago, we848Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV70tWjiqbK
