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.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9gQrR03Zrx
I had never been this 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHhrbuIDKlS
late in my entire life. Not even when I had my own personal 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXaPXOTauqJ
appointments. The others would be wondering why I was so late. And 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTka1oU96Y
trying to explain the reason why, would have them blown away.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6NwncDGSz
"Sam, are you still there?" Zoey called out to me from our room.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MKfh4jeJZ
I didn't want to answer. I was quite irritated. But if I didn't, she would start to freak out.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUEs7Fdkhc
"Sam!"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnFKvuIZb5f
I rolled my eyes. "I'm still here, Zoey," I answered.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmV09iKOJS
Zoey came out of the 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYHggQ0cmct
room and came to the lounge where I was seated waiting for her. I was on870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ9I1LKsVqE
the couch and I looked at her, then back at my watch.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj3InoKuHUA
"Did you find what you're looking for?" I asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6hIGBuhEK
"No, I haven't," said Zoey.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfbq81k6In
"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."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCQJf2uEzR
"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.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLsUtigISbR
"Zoey, it's just a stud and you have plenty of those like it in your jewellery box."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQoMB8iES3b
"But those are my favourite studs," said Zoey. "You know they are diamond, right?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCBMfVeG53
"I know because I bought you those studs for your birthday a year ago."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzNonbI10Xj
"Oh. Ya, I know." Zoey had a look on her face that told me she forgot about that.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmKBnJqLiG7
I ignored her and said, 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnfNgfRgKkG
"just get another pair of studs or don't put on any at all. For my sake.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQSjdaG9aq
And Collins' too. We were supposed to be at the studio at 10."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKCVhshbbyg
"What time is it?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1giy4nmYu3
"10:35."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWK8v2DA6G8
"Wow, time really passes by."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU1MXAbdFVl
"When it comes to you, it does. Come on, let's go."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjq0v7MXtCB
"Let me go get my phone."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtcXTrmvZvu
Zoey rushed back to the 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZcLNLYOych
room and I hoped she wasn't going to get back to looking for her missing870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBoSsPT1U9
stud. She sometimes did the opposite of what she had to do. But anyway,870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBiW4UbnzZ6
that was Zoey.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPphKGP7qwp
I soon received a 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMaJuMqSZ9
message from Collins threatening me to get to the studio as soon as 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEul7XaV2NW
possible. In no less than five minutes. I moaned. He knew we couldn't 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCkQgBSdd9
get there in five minutes. That's if we were superheros.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqiqnMsuCK
"Zoey, come on, we better go!"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMezsqjf0h
"I'm coming."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8mYqWvywm
I started heading 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWzALvqyf1U
towards the elevator and my phone beeped again. Another message. 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8h9I81dNCd
Hopefully it wasn't Collins again telling us he would hang us to death 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkqLxUPnNP
if we didn't make it in time. But I was surprised to see an unknown 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFz3W3hE460
number. A number coming from another country.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjIYb65Pd21
"Oh, who is this?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6hxY7c470
Before I could open the message icon, Zoey came rushing from behind and bumped into my back. That almost made me drop my phone.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67S7ovu6Of
"My goodness, Zoey!" I said as I looked at her. "You should look where you're going. I almost dropped my phone."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVRSa5aHL5
"Sorry," said Zoey as she also looked at me.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVbtlhFVh2
"Come on, we're already late."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbMxK0IIJRS
We went into the 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNYkoZ4Y5Kk
elevator and I put my phone away in my jeans jacket pocket. A black 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3JFNUzhKif
Chevrolet SUV was waiting for us outside. The others had already left 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWuu9SmDiYs
for the studio and I had stayed behind because of Zoey's missing stud.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6CQ1o7LNzv
When we got to YG, 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf1j0nJy7z4
Collins stood there by the entrance, obviously waiting for us. He looked870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9kSvBKuPnm
like an angry father ready to scold at his kids for coming home late.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQDcZct8sZ
"Don't tell me all this is your doing, Zoey," said Collins as we approached him.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ00P0tg8Bb7
"No, no, it's not," said Zoey as she shook her head.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdw3gF7nXB
"Says the person who isn't wearing her studs today."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasBIyvYvw1
Zoey held her earlobes 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBbsnoe7Np3
and looked at me with a surprised look on her face. I shrugged. I had to870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkOora7axW
tell Collins why we delayed over the phone. At least he believed me, 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJtJzRCs6l
knowing that he already knew what was Zoey was like.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1PMGmPamNM
"Come on, the others are waiting and they didn't want to start without you," said Collins.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrBoj51SQQy
"They had to wait," said Zoey, flipping her hair. "I'm singing the first verse alongside G-Dragon."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNUilXL5pdd
"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.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡseVrm8Rxfe
"I'll try." I smiled. Zoey stuck out her tongue at Collins.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIITvYvPxy
We got to the studio and we found everyone else waiting for us, lazing around on the couch.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQNk66iS0z
"Hey, you're finally here," said Seungri.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zC9q5chEo
"Sorry, we had an issue back at the hotel," said Zoey.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc9eVkh1vhl
"Ya. A 'serious' one." I said as I rolled my eyes.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDq1uDF48uB
"I can't wait to get started," said Daniel excitedly as he stood up from the couch.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmnQ6og7wCd
"Then let's do so," said870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnOSvavMNEp
Collins as he joined the music producer by the console. "Zoey, Taeyang,870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6AElla6GUc
Christine, Sam and G-Dragon, we will start with you guys."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8lJc4L6Mku
I had completely forgot 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtV63psFIK0
that G-Dragon was even in the room. I hadn't noticed him at all when he 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADx3nCDPKT
stood up from the couch and came towards Zoey and I.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT8MbcSluyZ
"Hi, Zoey," G-Dragon greeted Zoey.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNkV3xFLp6j
"Hi," said Zoey with a wide smile on her face.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKG8h1SeTd2
"Ahem," Christine came from behind as she cleared her throat. "Let's go. You two can talk later."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVmPOcCxhsO
I rolled my eyes and together with Taeyang and Christine, we went into the live room together, followed by the two love birds.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTaAr057RS
In the live room, there 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzaju88CEjg
stood five microphones and with each mic had a pair of headphones around870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8y9keVsZx
it. We each stood in front of a microphone and put on the headphones.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOyWG2pB554
Ahead of us was a window where we could see the others from the other side.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51CO6eEQsg
"Are you guys ready?" Collins asked as his voice was heard through the speaker in the live room.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWR3A2a6LXr
I looked at the others 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2TDfH5ZbY
to see if they were settled and gave Collins a thumbs up and the music 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaSGMpbIpWN
producer started to play the tune for the song.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMHypFcpXRP
G-Dragon started to sing870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3L9aYHPdb
and then afterwards, Zoey followed. Their voices blended so well with 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJzJ9HSOmhH
the music, they made a perfect harmony. Looked like I did a good thing 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ9OOovX987
to let them sing the first verse together.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn8jXT2EGzC
Collins, the music 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbBAyxnm05n
producer and the others outside the live room had smiles on their faces.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh17TdWvoVP
They were loving it alright. Collins gave them a thumbs up.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL6pXmgnxFr
Christine then sang the 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzNBrVNdGFH
bridge and as she came came closer to the chorus, I joined in. Then 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbGeabIKYrF
Taeyang and I sang the chorus together.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9D5hFgq3A
When we were done, the music producer stopped playing the track.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHOGWubRig
"That was awesome, guys," said Collins as his voice came out through the speaker. "The song is so incredible."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK4SG4p8Krv
"Ya, thank Sam," said Taeyang. "She is the one who came out with all of this."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0C74BH2zh
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."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXSyvTCwoh
"Okay, Sam and Taeyang, I870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaE4V7untpC
want you two to go through the chorus again, this time with a little 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhxscmFnNnz
more high tempo and see how it sounds," said the music producer.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI8w9SSewXi
"Okay," Taeyang and I said at the same time.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qpQmNpkFp
"Shall GD and I leave then?" Zoey asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0dJEYqYcKh
"You may," said Collins,870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJA4X5RFP8Z
looking a little irritated on his face. "But don't leave the studio. 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMwJhg462Fi
You have to work on the backup vocals."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPe0IAvrlzK
"Alright, we will be here," said Zoey, with a grin on her face.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3sz6eIOks
If I hadn't known 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3pagHry2K
better, something told me Zoey and G-Dragon were up to something. They 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqDdSeOFRTM
looked like little mischievous children as they smiled at each other and870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWT4H6PZTBw
they walked out of the live room. I couldn't help but feel a little 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ91urtEo0QW
hollow inside.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9tZ65bl2Y
"So, we will start from Christine's part," said the music producer.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxi1v6tI4UK
We continued recording 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGQzXaoK4WN
the song and later on, TOP, Mike, Daesung, Seungri and Daniel also came 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYEXbz196tU
into the live room. It took us a while to record the whole song, trying 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlFDnWAL1F
to make our vocals blend in with the song but we were done.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8O2wPFc6T8
"Great job guys," said Collins. "Let's break up for lunch and then we can come back and work on the backup vocals."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjTe8NRJpfn
"Alright," said Mike as he took out his headphones. "I'm pretty hungry now."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEk4VLqz6D
"The song is amazing," said Christine. "And it's catchy that you can sing it the whole day."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjmP2t2ey6
"Ya," said TOP. "Why don't we all go somewhere special for lunch?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUv3dCFZ3mG
"Like where?" I asked as I put the headphones on the mic.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5DfwWIhfDn
"Some restaurant I think we will like," said TOP as he looked at me with a killer smile.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnokprFBFdY
"That sounds great." I turned to the window to look at Collins who obviously heard everything. "Can we go, Collins?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5r6YsOvxn7
"Ya, you can go," said Collins waving his hand irritatingly in the air.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj01IUrbSTC
"Yes!" Daniel punched the air with his fist.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVAxlgxGxan
"But be back within an hour."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaLaN2YlxsX
I raised an eyebrow at Collins who then rolled his eyes at me and groaned.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUFTX1qkqc
"Fine, an hour and a half."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa8hQdQihyZ
I did a little victory dance in my heart and I smiled in triumph. Collins and the music producer soon left the studio room.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwNYpb8f1pS
"How did you do that?" Daesung asked as we all walked out of the live room.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk51LSKCrvn
"Do what?" I asked with a smile on my face as Daesung was right behind me.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGYEE368KBh
"How did you convince Collins to give us an hour and thirty minutes?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpC9xKXntCB
"That, my friend," said 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEM7Tg1W2Y
Mike behind me, "is the way my sister does her thing. Just by a look in 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQwtYl84AL
her eyes and you will have to do whatever she wants."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSawjIzQ45
"That's not true," I said as I turned around to look at Mike who had his hand on Daesung's shoulder.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4G1aqMEtJ
"Really? I beg to differ," said TOP as he winked at me.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTA8rv1SYN1
"No one does what I want them to do just by looking at them in the eye," I said, looking away from TOP, blushing.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0vdj5dvhD
"Well, it does work, most of the time," said Christine nodding her head.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNTtD9F4Uw3
"Oh, ya? Like when?" I folded my arms.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT8No8uHquD
"Whenever you want us to870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jcEtLCblP
tell you the truth about something and we refuse, you always give us 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz1CKZFBxgg
this eye that makes us give in," said Daniel.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvecOX9q8gu
"For real?" I raised an eyebrow.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvaTtugMf65
"Ya, your eyes burn and we just can't take it," said Christine.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMKEDOoJY8
"Huh," I thought of all 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDTJwvbQUG6
the times when either of my brothers or the girls ever did whatever I 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmfhbRo48zv
wanted them to do just by me giving them the eye.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyALuOdhcfh
"But that doesn't explain with Collins though," said Taeyang.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgCCjM0Crhu
"Thank you, Tae," I said feeling relieved.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxe6NjLMuLA
"Come on, Sam," said 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUAZ9pX4luH
Daniel. "You might not know it, but Collins listens to you because you 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8i3qhSOcqd
also give him the eye. And also probably because you're his favourite."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnobCRKX4gk
"That makes no sense." I shook my head.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs62zT2eCtH
"I believe him," said Seungri. "Looks like you have a way of getting to Collins to make him agree with you."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYqiGPYqCD
"But he doesn't agree to me all the time," I slowly shook my head.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvbohEdCJ3s
"On some ocassions like this one, he does," said Christine with a smile.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7kqJaYcyP
"Can we please just go for lunch?" I asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhqKdwReIk
Seungri came over to open the door for me, but just as I was about to step out of the room, I stopped.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZyxwvpj3EF
"Guys?" I turned around to look at the others. "Where are Zoey and GD?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJ30nYGY1L
We all turned towards the couch and noticed that there was no one there. I went back in the room and looked around.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorXnMNFPKx
"They aren't here," I said.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0dAEK5TGRZ
"These guys don't stop surprising us with their disappearing acts," said Daesung.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwRp51RDZal
"I'm surprised Collins didn't notice," said Seungri.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4Rw6sNRsO
"Hopefully, they will be back before we start on the backup vocals," I said.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYOh6nqomzD
"Then let's go then," said TOP. "Wherever those two are, they are fine."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Pla8OdEP4
I nodded my head and we 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCV6ikZQ2CS
all left the room. As we headed down to the ground floor, I reminded 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeguO2HqwLH
myself to leave a text message for Zoey.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpD18qRrFHE
We were in the lobby and870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUuaSYSzBsT
I stopped to remove my phone. I went over to messages and realised that870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbAFWCXMvf7
I had one unread message. It was the message I had received this 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhSyAbyZLCx
morning.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡejJuXHKFKx
I first sent Zoey a text870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3pfY8YzoC
message then I decided to read the unknown message from this unknown 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMJbPkebJn
person. Then TOP appeared right in front of me.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPNexfcWuO
"Hey, what are you looking at?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJuykD45aE
I was startled by his sudden appearance that my thumb pressed the exit button and I had gone out of my messages.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVFySv77Gt
"I was just sending Zoey a message," I said.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSYRqaPD0F
"Okay, shall we go?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgoyLiIZHOK
"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.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBe8dFuxWc
"Oh, you guys look like you're going out," said Christine with a smile.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTofkZgFjO4
"We're all going out for lunch aren't we?" I asked with a smirk.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ65eOe0v8sq
"Ya, we are," said Daesung, looking the other way and scratching the back of his head.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQfiokfcPl
"We better go or else our one and half hours will elapse in no time," said Daniel.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjguq19QR4K
Instead of using any one870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHxzSIfoJj
of the BigBang members personal cars, we used the two black SUVs. We 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBqoYPjQY5
were driven to a fancy restaurant and as usual, we grabbed a lot of 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhnASUg8K4p
attention, especially from the customers.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2t5mB2uC9
I had to admit, the 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZoGkjtKiUN
restaurant was nice and classy, suitable for the famous and the rich. As870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXhG6vLGiwz
I walked into the restaurant with the others, a fancy glass chandelier 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4bmoab93C
caught my eye. The polished wooden floor shone almost like glass under 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4yzA1bjpph
the lights the chandelier reflected all over the room.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlKBwft9NDe
A smartly dressed 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlY4yxhRJfU
waiter, who by the way, was super cute, came over. He gave us a friendly870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5khzZUQLGd
smile and I felt Christine nudge me by the shoulder and when I turned 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIMeFx8otZ2
to her, she was smiling. Looked like she also noticed the waiter's good 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5NemxwwZs4
looks too. Damn! Why were Korean men so good looking?870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRcW0kQ8pzr
We were escorted to a 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqamHHTDgy0
round table big enough to cater a whole lot of people. Even ten. But 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYm8Stmxee
sadly, Zoey and G-Dragon weren't here.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDStYFrJDN9
TOP pulled a chair for 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQA1lUCEVYy
me and I sat down, thanking him as he took his seat beside me. Seungri 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Ix8ESpdwU
pulled a chair for Christine who sat on my other side and Seungri sat 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgi3Ng75pxl
beside her.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgqzQxaLL3o
"This place is so lovely," I said as I looked around.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGe01xh59fq
"Tell me about it," said Christine.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXUbeCmjzvK
"I knew you would like it," said TOP.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaA7YCYA9ud
"Ya, it's exquisite, but I'm only here for the food," said Mike who sat opposite me.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA6uvhV5S5W
"So, let's order," said Daesung.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkczRuAvbRd
I took the fancy looking menu with the colour of velvet and the letters written in gold. Classy.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZfoINKNYf
After our delicious meals had been served, we ate. I enjoyed it as I savoured every little food in my mouth.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiav3iUb62m
As we were having our 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ12xetyYPNc
dessert, we were chatting and there was a lot of laughter all around our870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbU7wGoixo
table. It was fun to be like this, all together as good friends and 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZlsGe2bVx
laughing about. I kind of wished Zoey and GD were here. I bet they were 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtOhzFDpZKD
having fun wherever they were.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡntT6iUBDmN
While I was having my 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD3syxKTrJh
strawberry cake, I felt the vibration of my phone in my pocket. Must be a870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTywYYq2GdO
message. I took out my phone and I was shocked to see that the same 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKfFU4dRWZ
unknown number had sent me a message again.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ68xaDko4f
I tapped on the message 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAmur2GcfUg
icon and the first message the unknown number had sent to me was a 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTo7jnUK3Xg
photo. I had to download it first before I could even see it. And then 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomeB1T6Srz
the next message was more surprising.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ296H54AqHF
"Aren't you going to do anything about this?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLLJipIJOI2
Anything about what was 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0MrUugGVMy
the question. Had this had to do with the photo? Must be or else the 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA9VoTaoni2
unknown person wouldn't have texted me this message.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltDvHRV1Et
I decided to turn my data on and download the photo. Just as I was about to, my phone went off.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0WT0BtuGal
"Dang it!" I muttered to myself.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpkgSAqOfg
"Hey, what's wrong?" TOP asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCKKdeh6637
"Nothing, my phone went dead. I hadn't charged it last night."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjFr1UjkPOl
"Was there something important you wanted to do?" Taeyang asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHLWEqqS0K
"Not really, it's not important." I shook my head but my thoughts still lingered on the unknown photo.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQIv5LEqJNg
"Did Zoey text you back?" Christine asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqquLiO0j9U
"No, why?" I asked as I picked up a piece of strawberry cake with my fork.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpelqfO5j65
"Well, your phone vibrated so I thought you had received a message from her."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22Ej0di6rG
"It was nothing. Wherever Zoey is, she is having a lot of fun."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJR4UpyhPfX
"Hey, what's up with GD and Zoey anyway?" Taeyang asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG0CIKuRc8f
"Isn't it freaking obvious?" said Daesung. "Those two seem like a couple now."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKy7MGo4SL
I almost choked on my cake but instead, I cleared my throat. Christine rolled her eyes.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9vXMZOpnh
"Well, that wasn't going to go on unnoticed forever," she said.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡavqEWii9uE
"Wait, for real?" Taeyang asked, with a look of surprise.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ag03LWGAD
"And you already knew, didn't you?" Mike asked looking at Christine.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ697esv0loR
"Oh, please," said Christine rolling her eyes. "Don't tell me you haven't noticed how close those two are nowadays."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrctZJHa3gn
"They have always been close," said Seungri. "But this time, they are just way too close."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bhGPfoxTu
"For them to disappear like that together, it counts for something, right?" TOP suggested.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEtICny0dQ
"Can we please stop 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMpnXKUIALF
talking about it?" I asked. "There are people around and if they hear 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpyhKRYtyaA
all this, some of us would be hanged when this spreads like wild fire."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvaIYLkJvUE
"Why do you say that?" Daesung asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAV8uLpya8J
"Oh, oooh, oh," said Daniel waving his hand from across the table. "May I say it?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3AdbpJBZO6
"No, let me," said 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5VmR3cGTMX
Christine, as she put her hand on mine and looking at me convincingly to870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCWfkPZEQ9C
allow her to say what she wanted to say.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42FvhBmm2i
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.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxKZhWRGzo
"Because, Collins gave 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJGOPmI5mD
these girls a golden rule when we were coming here," said Daniel. "And 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfXaLNyTCcF
that is, none of them should date any one of you BigBang members. 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW4bRUUMete
Never."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa62SE8ZsJS
There was silence on the870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5beLfapf3
table and I couldn't help but feel a little downcast. Christine 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA7ScvLcvOQ
continued to eat her dessert like nothing serious had been said. I 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHB7zcJSxY
looked over at my brothers who seem to be enjoying our humiliation.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4tfy4j3wFt
"Is that true?" Seungri asked, looking over at me.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtD1jVY2xU1
"Ya, it's true," I said as I slowly chewed the cake in my mouth.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLSdlDL8oy
"Oh." Daesung looked a little disappointed as he stared down at his plate.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKFEDPFpIiS
"Who cares? It's not like it's that serious," said TOP as he shrugged.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5AxE4oH1x
"It's serious to 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡagxZsnqWRz
Collins," I said as I turned to look at TOP. "We're only here to 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9QvfGg3hxm
collaborate with you and that's all. Not date, get married and have 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAE7dDfrkq5
babies."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGNVryZWht
That was odd coming out 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAKVWA1Y4rv
of my own mouth and the others knew it too. Everyone's eyes were on me, 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhoxuvl5yhP
with looks on their faces that I couldn't describe. This was 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmYTOGHHBU
embarrassing. My hands were now curled into fists as they rested on my 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ekkjRBlcc
laps.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9vFbOBXCro
"Sorry, that came out wrong," I said.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnY4BPoE9lq
"Well, you did catch us by surprise by saying that," said Taeyang.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbLzkGodmXe
I really did. Something 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1PrW6ciT95
had gone totally wrong with me and I could feel it. My thoughts were 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtmEDhbGzcJ
spinning in my head and I felt like I had no control over how I felt.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyYQlXfDWeT
"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.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwhhgH5AXCE
I quickly closed the 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQKG47qemH
door immediately I stepped in the ladies' room, leaning my back against 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo3xCz5IOFG
the door. My hands flew to my hair and I took a deep breath. I walked 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorPSIViXHc
over to the sink and stared at myself in the mirror.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5oWXemfD5
"What's wrong with you today?" I asked my reflection.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgwggDfAma
I shook my head and I 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVKS9R16EAg
knew I wasn't alright. Something was definitely wrong. Was it the fact 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJoGXNXldj
that Zoey and G-Dragon were together? As far as I know, I wasn't really 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMXnfuDTI7
supposed to care. But I did.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZlUr9aWGv
I looked at myself and I870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxthwhOOS5M
could see the sadness in my eyes. Were they for G-Dragon? I shook my 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKd9IYrvr0
head at the thought. No. They weren't. He and I were still at war with 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxLYfLkFB5C
each other and that made no sense. I had to stop thinking about these 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiIko0lNkXs
things and focus on what's really important.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHrXQKf9Kr3
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.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCAU0NZhRDH
"Are you okay, Sam?" Mike asked as I sat back down.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCSJKN1O9C
"Ya, I am. I just feel horrible that I said that."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqurs7icbcN
"We think we know why you did," said Christine.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0IjrSVYFok
I gulped. What had these870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfbsURIt8u
guys thought of now? If it was what I thought it was, I would rather 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVbOvoi9G4w
not hear it. There was a moment of silence at the table.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUAWmndg0q
"Zoey has you so worked up that you're irritated," said TOP.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8y9eClNk5d
That was not what I was expecting. I was wide eyed and in my heart, feeling a little relieved.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzcvLXaZ5C
"Ya, I remember when we were coming here in the plane and Collins told you to watch over Christine and Zoey," said Mike.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmim8X88pGf
"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.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡStPx73Gvu3
While Christine was one 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0era9jcGTt
who at least had her hormones in check, Zoey and I were pretty much 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0itgKpcVU
guilty. I couldn't tell who was worse between either of us. I bet I was 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ki8QNHRyQ
worse.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4YRxhpL3jM
"Well, I guess I'm also guilty myself like Zoey," I said, admitting to everyone.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2iZNPxkv5j
"If you mean TOP flirting around with you, then trust me, you're not," said Daniel.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGfvpH1KiO
"Hey!" TOP looked a little annoyed but rather amused. He ended up laughing.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvIT7M4HkS
"And me calling you my panda," said Seungri, with a smirk.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZR36kai8hp
"You see, Sam, people just like you," said Mike. "And these guys shouldn't dare make a move of kissing you."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1B0l6aVhXR
I blushed. "Mike!"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQFmSzXMaK
"Don't worry, he is just being protective over his sister," said Daesung, laughing.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVX5P2MAVfs
"I've tried kissing 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDIVPypZ292
her," TOP challenged as he looked over at my brothers. He raised an 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpcw0fVX2mY
eyebrow. "What are you going to do about that?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcih6nlRxUC
"Uhh, if I were you, I 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4RMJl59nZ1
wouldn't challenge them, TOP," I said as put my hand on his shoulder, 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8pSYiHPDWt
looking over at my brothers who looked set on tearing TOP apart. And I 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2muRJ1KVIz
caught a glimpse of Daesung rolling his eyes at TOP. "You would end up 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8qQzs9KDX
regretting it."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHlxgDjcg90
"True," said Christine, nodding her head at TOP. "These boys are like monsters you can't beat. Only Sam can handle them."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZAuMJMlUDX
I looked over at Christine with a look that said 'that's not true.' Christine shrugged.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBL2VmQdJo
"Fine, I'll listen to 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNrYWvp7G7Z
you ladies," said TOP as he looked at Christine and I. "Most especially 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYuXAoIJF7
because Sam says so." He gave me that killer bad boy smile of his and I 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEAeRJPIfU0
blushed.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXmYUZgegM
"Well, we better go," said Taeyang.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdFDGDrrnj
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.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufY3Kxnc7j
After TOP paid the bill, we left the restaurant with the paparazzi taking pictures as we walked out.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMIZMfUWwWS
We got to YG just in 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV1eUTMoHOT
time. I just hoped that Zoey and G-Dragon were back here. I didn't want 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8W0Vm7ZYnW
Collins on my throat and giving him the eye, wasn't going to help.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZnaWE1oxe1
When we got to the studio, we found G-Dragon.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjdwLYHtQz
"Hey, where did you two disappear to?" Christine asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtLxCo3B3iH
"We just went out," said G-Dragon as he looked around the room.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdEvlb4iUPy
I couldn't help but feel870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezPg1dDGh5
that something was wrong, just by the look on his face. "What's wrong?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVXpgHX5IKi
I asked him with my eyebrow raised.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgFVpX27Nx
"Huh?" He appeared to be absent minded. Was he looking for something?870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5BljeSIzl
"I was asking what's wrong with you? And where is Zoey?" I asked as I also looked around.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOl5QHCf1SV
"That's the thing," said G-Dragon. "I can't find her."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOnzmkZBeh
I felt something inside 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJmFomDEEN
me break and my eyes bulged out of their sockets ready to fall out. I 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8s7pp5lwHc
couldn't believe what I was hearing.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0BkIXl2Ss
"Are you for real?" Taeyang asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKl1py1RKRu
"I'm serious," said G-Dragon.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMd9lsg0B1
"Wait, do you mean you 'lost' her?" Mike asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡusSRU0XyoL
"I didn't lose her, I just can't find her."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0MEABzpXF
"That sounds more like losing her to me," said Daniel.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD76ou43A7J
"You guys aren't helping!" G-Dragon exclaimed throwing his hands in the air in frustration.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Ll8OJOlZu
"Where were you guys first of all?" Seungri asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz38v1MrNHK
"We first went to have lunch then the two of us went to the park."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3bY1kqaHe
"Then?" TOP asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVSCyxM8C8
"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."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3ydBRvFlp
"Are you sure?" Daesung asked. "Did you look everywhere for her?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfW4PpleZSd
"I did. I even asked people around and they hadn't seen her. I thought she would be back here."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡISuCHwRdC5
"That would be unusual, given that Zoey doesn't really know the city so well," said Taeyang.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ958R1ASPR7
"But where could she be?" Christine asked looking as worried as I was.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqII1AgY7Qo
"Try calling her," said Seungri, turning to Christine.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsme0GZpbqf
"I just hope she is okay," I said as I rubbed my neck.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbxfhXhTlw
"What are we going to do with Collins?" Mike asked looking at me.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIFnfND7c9
"I don't know," I said. "Hey, do me a favour and try to call the hotel and see if Zoey is there."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMiV5WuMN9W
"Sure thing," said Mike as he pulled out his phone.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4PvGgm6m9i
"Her phone is off," said Christine her phone in her hand.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaZbApfhTVs
"Oh, no, this isn't good," said TOP.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzGZ2BP1yE7
"Again, Zoey is putting us into more problems."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLmukoDmWjQ
I couldn't help but 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2cMbjjzIuo
wonder why she went off like that. Something wasn't right. Was G-Dragon 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vYvIJlb1W
not telling us what was really going on?870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHXgg8eI1VB
"No one has seen Zoey go into the hotel," Mike announced.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrlk3dvsdRl
"We're goners," said Seungri as he dropped himself on the couch.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsaKfrz26i1
"We've to look for her," said TOP.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1qhMX3zjPd
"But where can we start looking?" Daniel asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxP6gkOpPP
"I don't know, but we have to go and find her," I said.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkBXcrfUFmj
"And we have to do something with Collins," said Taeyang.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3X5a5adLL
"Did someone say my name?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡos2DN90cCR
I cringed. He was one 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktCRHVgaJr
person I wasn't ready to face right now. Everyone else wasn't ready to 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7JMLu7M8d8
either. We slowly turned to look behind us and Collins stood there with 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjDFxLqZV2
the music producer.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8dstQyWCO
"Why are you all looking worried like someone has gone missing?" Collins asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡntK6gyZy6h
I sighed. If only he knew. But if he does find out, he wasn't going to forgive us that easily.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLcIVcPyvs
Collins looked on at us, waiting to answer him. What to do now! We were going to be in such big trouble.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaNQNOiStRo
"Looks like you aren't 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ45EB13FHvn
going to answer me, so let's get back to work," said Collins turning 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1TS9S4GkL
away from us and heading towards the console.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01ayYudajE
"We will work on the backup vocals," said Collins. "Zoey, Sam and Christine, you're up."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfGMntwQ04L
I looked at the others 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa2p4ty5kSa
who hadn't said a word. We all looked at each other. Someone had to do 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡusn9ZzNb4b
something or else we would be toast.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBFCvCSoPy
"Are we going to start?" Collins asked looking behind him as he turned on his chair. "Where is Zoey?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdvVmnQLPV
It was about time he noticed. It looks like we ourselves weren't ready to tell him that Zoey is missing.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP7cKgJb9f1
"What's wrong with you, guys? Why aren't you saying anything?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyK1kzvfPGF
"Zoey isn't here," said Mike.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUNvvENMDY
"Ya, I can see that. Where is she?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwEr1Nyaad1
"She wasn't feeling too well," I said. "So she went back to the hotel."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwaYfhRUAtq
"What? Did she eat something bad for lunch?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6rKO7j2hlK
"Ya. She did," said G-Dragon.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqzBTZ7CCx
"So, do you think we should continue or do this tomorrow when Zoey is around?" I asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMFLyr84tqO
"We should just do this tomorrow," the music producer suggested, turning to Collins.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98itRZZvzL
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.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyoMQHhnrx0
"Fine," said Collins. "We really need Zoey, so we should just do it tomorrow."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOVKYeW3QKp
Mike and Daniel almost 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyhGeFjyRVV
jumped with relief but they managed to control themselves. Christine 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrwyNTV9NUP
turned around so that Collins and the music producer wouldn't notice her870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwj7rHyHCPr
sighing in relief. The rest of us just stood there, pocker faced.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIZ1yhQ2l06
"That's fine," said Taeyang.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUqi2gfEl3
"I really wanted us to be done with this today," said Collins.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4DdKLCukD
"Looks like it wasn't meant to be," said TOP.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHWzRkQAnBh
Ya. It wasn't meant to be. Looks like we were lucky. That meant we could look around for Zoey.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHhRtrYnd7
"You guys can go back to the hotel and make sure Zoey is okay," said Collins.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1OMVfUVet
"I'll go," said Christine. "The others can stay here if they want to."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsI0RxCcpfc
Christine was doing the 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpn0nGhnAPF
right thing. If she went to the hotel, Collins wouldn't be so suspicious870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH3GIzyn0kh
of what's going on and just in case he decides to go back there at 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpostKKRg1o
anytime, Christine might cover up for Zoey.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2RzAumCUS
"Okay and what will the rest of you all be doing?" Collins asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbD5rKCUvPh
"Chilling," G-Dragon and I replied at the same time. We both looked at each other afterwards.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmid4YAWkFy
"Fine, I have some other things to attend to. I might just go and check up on Lee and Yang Hyun-suk."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF48HNMpQXB
I wanted to ask where, 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1T7lyYl502
but I knew it was none of my business. I realised that I hadn't seen Lee870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGBChPW5KMP
the whole day. Must be she was busy with Yang Hyun-suk. Collins and the870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo3C4Iqc7PB
music producer soon left.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9p4OrsgcQF
I walked over to the door and checked if Collins and the music producer were in the hall. But they were gone.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFPOY4oprd
"Looks like we have to split up and look for Zoey," said Taeyang.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtuLz0DjvV
"Ya, we should," I 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡex7MihEUjN
nodded my head. "G-Dragon and I will take Christine to the hotel just in870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPk8iV76u34
case Zoey shows up and if Collins decides to go there."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKVvLEiOY2
"I'll go with Taeyang," said Daniel.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemu7Nus8Jq
"And I go with Seungri," said Mike.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyaQEOimpxn
"That leaves Daesung and I," said TOP.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VrVnALjU6
"Great, let's go," I said and we all walked out of the room.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgudRyYNpK
As soon as we left the 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRFy3XIBhDY
YG building, we split up in the parking lot. Luckily, Collins had 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcIjNMd8kam
already left. Christine and I went with G-Dragon in his car. It was 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0aQL8TfJn
important that I had to talk to G-Dragon concerning Zoey.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGjwtadlHp
We soon arrived at the hotel and Christine got out of the car. I gave her my phone for it to be charged.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLGTWdIZlf
"Call us if anything good happens," I said I looked at Christine through the window.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeiyXtGKPMo
"And what if something bad happens?" Christine asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjXodvWs0IA
"Like Collins? You can handle it," I said as I gave her a smile. Christine winked and wished us luck.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡweyyP4ZoYf
G-Dragon drove away and 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhSTUkE4pbO
we first went to the park where he came with Zoey after lunch. I just 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAha1jiBmgZ
hope she didn't go that far and that she was okay.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhrQiwETxI
"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.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkM1QAhDXDu
"What?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZbQQjpgVoK
"Did you two argue?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpUyHB13BhM
"No, we didn't," said G-Dragon as he went around me and started walking towards the park.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOjWwf9g1NT
I quickly turned and followed him. When I caught up with him, I stood in front of him to stop him.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7FjYA7qHCO
"Are you telling me the truth?" I asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFiHvaKMGf
"Do you think I am lying?" G-Dragon asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8e50CF0swo
"I think so." I said with my arms folded.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNIU6ODppJo
"You're crazy," said G-Dragon as he walked around me again.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqcesXlIzqE
I huffed. He wasn't going to budge. I had to try something to get the truth out of him.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUr2xbtTWe
With quick strides, I 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPcxM69XOh
caught up with him again. This time I started to walk backwards so that I870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6tcWr435B
could look at him directly in his face.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ95q5ZwTTo5
"What are you doing?" G-Dragon asked as he looked at me, puzzled.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPIyySmaj3s
"I want you to tell me the truth."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbfU6brsIHx
"You're stressing yourself out by walking backwards."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRegT9PaoyN
"Do I care?" I raised an eyebrow at him. "I know you're hiding something from me."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEkHWktbzkR
G-Dragon chuckled and 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmbijkg5Pf
that almost made me smile. "Stop playing detective, my little kitty. As 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1KRFrKaglH
much as it suits you, you're going to trip over and fall."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUdLVukGfb
"Then you have to stop me from walking backwards by answering my question."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51ezWgYIic
"This is one silly method of interrogation if you ask me."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZY5NZWBd5o
"I can tell you're not telling me something. Zoey can't just leave like that without someone upsetting her."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2yBcNdJBBR
"And how do you know?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡciSmrqcxMH
"I'm her best friend. 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZuiU6Bsfs
And plus, whenever someone gets her really upset, she runs off without 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZIiTbSmEty
telling anyone. She always wants be alone to think."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1tO64ZwAI
"I hope she doesn't think of committing suicide."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0uYF9wPXlE
"Zoey can't end her 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GBEMC73pG
life. Well, she hasn't tried to anyway. She's leaving the dream right 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3auaclhvt
now and ending her life this early, isn't going to sound right. Unless 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyw239YsWvi
you did something."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMB15JDPxKw
"Me?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVMD4moQPyM
"Da! Yes, you!"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyNEkR2dpH
"What could I possibly have done for Zoey to try and commit suicide?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZxZcfKQmU
"Don't talk about suicide like that." I hit him on the arm.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdoMOqeHvBs
"Ouch!" G-Dragon stopped and held his arm. "That hurts!"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVasu9UpYkS
"Well, you deserve it. Now tell me the truth." I put my hands on my hips.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQwi2otpIk
"I'm telling you, Zoey and I didn't argue."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlsUcuUbFjH
G-Dragon looked me in the eye and he seemed really convincing.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNF3c6XUIj
"Okay. I believe you," I said. "But you must have said something that upset her."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrZCACqw1J
"I can't really remember what I had said to her. Maybe she just left on her own."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡplr7zaXYwZ
"And with her phone off, that's a bit strange, don't you think?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRlDaKfmcD9
"When we find her we will ask why she ran off."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOspV5h8ZQt
"Ya. Sure."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOuf2VTcj1
"Now, will you please 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnvfDlxtnM
stop walking backwards? I don't want you to trip and save you from 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOVgmN0mDz3
falling. That will spark rumours again like it did during the 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjv5QtK4tCF
interview."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfiFv2Ga1M3
I didn't say anything, 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXN7Iy7BFUu
so I just nodded my head and faced forward. We went further into the 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnoIgbYnztB
park and as we looked around for Zoey, we sparked some attention from 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1MchCUooO
our darling fans. We signed a few autographs and took a few pictures and870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsEVU4chvoS
went on with our search. We even asked some fans if they had seen Zoey,870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrY3sAyGa7p
but nothing.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJK1OyxmB7l
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.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFnpp9MJSqa
"Are you tired already?" G-Dragon asked as he looked down on me.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmKympGjCJZ
"I'm not," I said as I 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg99JOKu0J1
removed my slippers and felt comfortable with my bare feet on the grass.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufhZJXDKhd
"I'm trying to figure out where Zoey could be."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVakYAz5qQ
G-Dragon sat down beside870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgt2D0Qxcar
me and the two of us were silent, looking at the pond. Laughter filled 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6icYXDqr8e
my ears as I saw a group of kids playing from across the pond. Some 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxiUxAzdwNc
couples also sat on the grass close to the pond. It was such a beautiful870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kdoKJlDMf
day and sitting by the pond felt so relieving.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIeBIHWxDk1
"Have you figured something yet?" G-Dragon asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsItLM327c8
I frowned and looked at him. "No, why do you ask?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqnFY1skDy5
"You seem to be smiling to yourself," said G-Dragon as he looked at me.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJTJHc4uzcF
"No, I'm actually enjoying what I'm experiencing right now."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmijAeSKsXg
"You love nature, don't you?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjFMq7UuABX
I closed my eyes, still smiling. "Ya. I really do."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrnzK2t0tn
At that moment, I was so870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNPpbzAXw4
caught in the little world inside my head. For a moment, I forgot about870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2xNJg6yQlk
everything. About looking for Zoey, being famous, and the whole world 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Zj9Nxd9Ql
with everyone and everything in it. It's like they never existed because870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzzCJSfQgm
even the noise around me seemed non existent.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7aSsOS6PhL
Then I felt something 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBE4NyYF9zP
brush against my hand like a soft feather. The touch brought me back to 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6qPBmibne
reality and I quickly opened my eyes. I looked beside me and G-Dragon 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17TzN6C8nh
was staring at me.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0cO0PWZ7J
"What?" I asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdxxGmR6Z1B
"Has anyone ever told you how beautiful you are?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5QRns2zbWD
I blushed all of the 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25GY1DwhzX
sudden and I looked down. His hand covered mine and for a moment I 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvAl8hckGZ
wanted to pull away. But then again, I couldn't explain how I felt with 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfcIbKfeANJ
his hand on mine. I felt this weird comfort.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAW7w7NGcc9
I would have said yes to870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5GSTIYJus1
his question, but no words came out. This wasn't right. As much as I 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0rz7mz2m9G
wanted him close to me, I knew I would end up getting hurt because we 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLiyWAbwwLv
were never meant to be.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2C2Iv7RQp
"Umm," I pulled my hand away and put it closer to my body. "Please don't say that GD."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0dAvathdTp
"Why?" He asked softly.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUqZ7A7PSx
"Because this isn't right at all and you know it."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2XT2dNtuth
"What do you mean?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzdR8SjpJf3
"You know that I ready know about Zoey and you. You guys are more like a couple."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgMexrF7JE
"So?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxSzzNJnP9
"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."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡchG7zKF5EP
"Looks like you figured out that I don't really like Zoey as such as I like you."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSu3ksc9vP
I didn't say anything as I continued to figure out what to say next.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJ3IzI0BZM
"Then why are you leading Zoey on? She doesn't deserve this, you know?" I asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd07rqMkdRz
"I know."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSzzcvrTZCt
"Then why are you doing this?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjXWswFmmK
G-Dragon looked at me like he never had before. He soon looked away and sighed.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qbYyXDPnr
"I'm doing this because of you, Sam. But even if I do so, I still can't get you out of my head."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHW74udZFsI
I also looked the other way, trying to act like those words hadn't affected me. But they did and they did so badly.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Kef3mqHML
"You should find another870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIlXhqckbci
way to do so, GD." I turned to look back at him and he faced me. "But 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLiBp2UNPGN
not with Zoey. I don't want her getting hurt because of the both of us. I870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKpQcQHzwnx
will never forgive myself."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoIDABNes7j
G-Dragon nodded his head. "I'll do so."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtOvYdJ5MEi
I wanted to smile but I 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwzVtcpA5z
couldn't bring myself to do it. I hoped he kept his word and maybe with 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3yhLFvAxz8
this little talk we've had, we would be friends again and stop acting 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR7y2mNwd1R
like we had beef with each other.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbar7AdOmEp
Just as I was about to 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXFZ2cYjg1
ask him why he had been giving me the attitude lately and if it had 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ009MRhpkQK
anything to do with his jealousy, his phone rang. He quickly removed it 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXq86QiGkPK
from his pocket and answered it.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW643q5WF4A
"Hello? Christine?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdb161r1Mw9
I was now attentive. Had she found Zoey? I wished I could have talked to her myself.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLRnYAs2Dv
"Okay, we will be right there. Inform the others as well."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq7ZtV33lLY
"What happened?" I asked after he cut the call.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPdtk7R5PXl
"Christine called to tell me that she knows where Zoey is."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQbvff4BgkD
"Where is she?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrodUIMuaJ
"She is at a famous café. I know where it is."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBopBh505NJ
"But how did Christine know where Zoey is?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyYCR7SVbTG
"Zoey's phone went back on and she texted where she was. And she is not alone."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFs2hYOWtAh
"Who is she with?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ265k6xIeky
"We're about to find out. Let's go."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhb9z40A5hA
G-Dragon got up from the870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4a2YkVHsC
ground and he held out his hand to me. I took it and he pulled me up 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0bccSXzOub
from the ground. We left the park together, heading towards his car.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsByd0hqNTo
When we got in his car, 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcPip0R6yPI
we drove through the city and we arrived at this small fancy café. We 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMyFbr7rDZ2
parked across the street and before we could get out of the car, I 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6LA1Zq1sa
looked across towards the café.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS315j2VJUw
"Can you see, Zoey?" G-Dragon asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWgJQu0L0CW
Through the huge window,870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrRiqHWly1w
I could see what was going on inside. Looked like a lot of people 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkWY9FMTA5o
enjoyed coming over to the café. The place was parked for an ordinary 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwazgTgNB79
day in the afternoon.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1paD8Y9yW
I searched for Zoey, but870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPPi19adaH
I couldn't see her. It was then that I saw Zoey at the far corner of 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSqgTI2WjPT
the café. She was facing the window side and I saw her with someone. 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYc0k6DydDF
Sitting opposite her was a man in a fancy looking black suit. From afar,870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6fh4ybcHSU
I could tell his suit was expensive and I couldn't see his face.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Q8S8fi0dP
"I see her," I said. "And she is definitely with someone."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRxxThCjG5
"Who is it?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgs6tYhwAen
"I don't know. By the look of his suit, he seems like a business man or one rich tycoon."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPtKHwENgdK
"Seriously?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6kvBS1F8R
"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?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcemyg55Kxi
G-Dragon looked towards the windshield, avoiding my gaze. "No, I'm not. I'm just wondering who it was, that's all."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjj4DcA4ou
I rolled my eyes and 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdMBW1ka6I
said nothing more. I went back to looking at the café and focused on 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmpHYSaRpC
Zoey. I decided to read her body language and see if she was okay. She 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡndDEU79mHP
looked like she was enjoying herself, chatting with this stranger.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDlAQJAt3w
She was sipping her cup 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlcCpv8OeoP
of coffee and she went back to smiling at the stranger. Something was a 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5W04I1g6pI
bit off and I shifted on my seat to see if I was seeing right.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0hQ3kF1K9
"Hey, is something wrong?" G-Dragon asked, noticing my tension.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDyPodtBjk
"Ya."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNG1F4MlJSj
G-Dragon also turned on his seat and looked through the window.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wFDMsWpWx
Zoey's smile made me 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ4tiwjl4z2
wonder what was going on. She was smiling and chatting but she looked a 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVp6FaKw4Br
little nervous. Usually when she is with a guy, she was always the one 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6X23fhAwp
who was never scared of leading the conversation and became pretty870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCl07i8hqqe
comfortable with the person. Unless the guy was creepy enough to be a serial killer.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwcsWp7WUgb
I felt a threat coming 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Cs7NqHEJ6
up. Was this guy dangerous? Zoey had a nervous smile on her face and if I870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXRunrgvgd
was not mistaken, I think I noticed her fingers tap frantically on the 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJsedxZDSgn
table. She did that whenever she was nervous. I had to know what was 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQpMjufuZv
going on in there.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7TX1XfSVb
"Let's go," I said as I turned to look at G-Dragon. "I'm not liking this."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCS6zAyJ6HI
"Thank you," said G-Dragon, looking relieved. "I had a bad feeling about this guy."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCihLJGysFW
"Ya, right," I said as I grabbed the handle of the door, opened it and stepped out.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQgPepONaz
Just as G-Dragon came 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ6qXC0V17H
out of the car, three cars appeared off the main road and came to park 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6g4ifVXL4F
in the parking space behind G-Dragon's car. The others had arrived.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18ypk9nDhM
"Christine told us to meet you here," said Taeyang as he and Mike came out of his car.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO0xAXhSBtY
"Zoey's in the café," I said as I pointed across the road.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFiNFepeEob
"Alright, let's go," said Seungri.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsNHexnr2C
When I looked back at the café window, I noticed that Zoey was all alone on her table. That was odd. Where was he?870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZFnwHu4T3J
"Oh, no, no, no," I said staring wide eyed inside the café.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC09h31TXNo
"What is it, Sam?" Daesung asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGPkbuyEnva
I didn't answer him as I870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6d7yflAL3
quickly dashed across the road without even checking for any cars. I 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2wjpNsM2Ly
could hear the others behind call out to me to be careful. I luckily 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkW642r74hF
managed to reach the café without getting hit.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSbh8LbgSA
When I got to the café, a870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡISB2VTBZhK
few people came out through the door. None of them matched the person 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT7R2GelFlI
who was in the café with Zoey. I quickly went in and I found Zoey still 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJekpm1XYuI
sitting in the corner. I rushed over to her that my presence scared her.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbeNIiXAqs5
"Sam! You scared me to death!" Zoey held her chest as she breathed in and out so heavily, trying to calm down.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbswuJwWgS
"Where did you go?" I asked, taking the seat the stranger had been sitting on earlier.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1roKV8akZv
"Oh, I...um.." Zoey played with her fingers.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡooZz0Y3reG
"Don't you dare try to 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrARXlDz3EN
lie to me, Zoey," I threatened. "You went with GD for lunch and the two 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksWMdq7X4C
of you went to the park. When GD went to get ice cream, you had 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmvHgv86ifD
disappeared. And the next thing we know, you're here."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1MKRL3Xys
"Christine told you where I was?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoPcJnapsKk
"Of course she had to. We were worried sick."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlbCbF6UkPX
I heard the bell of the 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKl9Mr9fIu
café ring and I knew the others had arrived. They soon came over by the 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPTg0XM5zgK
table. Only Taeyang, G-Dragon and Daniel were the ones who came in.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSeM58eu7Hd
"Zoey where have you been?" Daniel asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBPVjeGTScp
"And who was that guy you were with, huh?" G-Dragon asked, looking down at Zoey with a frown on his face.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6sDkIRfyC
"Awww, are you jealous, my G-Dragon?" Zoey smiled at him.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO88NNbvDdr
"Stop taking all this 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNySM37ZZlc
like a joke, Zoey. I saw the way you were behaving with him. You weren't870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ2Qz9XLuIn
yourself when I saw you from across the street," I said.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl2vnyuMYho
The smile on Zoey's face870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEX4DKvp1PM
disappeared in an instant. Good. Maybe now she would take us seriously.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYIj3wYbVr
Her safety was way more important than she could ever imagine. If 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwX2a2XvfRV
anything had happened to her, a lot of us here would never forgive 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfEAJYYMdqz
ourselves.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCD3tn3pxrc
"Can we please get out of here?" Taeyang suggested. "This isn't the place to discuss this."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyn9y6znsP3
"You're right," I said 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnczpIa27N
as I looked around the café and many heads were turning our way. I hated870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Th5FeOa15
attracting so much attention sometimes.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0mC5CwgBnk
The others had started 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjczRXg5Kp
to leave and Zoey and I both stood up from the table. I noticed the 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ttPMZORzP
teacup the stranger had used and my mind still couldn't stop thinking 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR5lQqWzYVs
about who he was.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGo3wi8ygfp
After we left the café, 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubHlqDZQdA
we went back across the road where the vehicles were parked. Daesung, 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwsrz0PRFs2
TOP, Mike and Daesung stood waiting for us.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMGbXMhUWo8
"Thank goodness, you're alright, Zoey," said Daesung.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUHiMp3IYhu
"Ya, thank goodness you weren't lost," said Mike. "We wondered if we would find you in a ditch or something."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCEg9WTiRIp
Zoey frowned at Mike and all he could do was smile back at her mischievously.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjt5go0HBMz
"Let's all go back to the hotel, shall we?" I suggested. "Zoey can tell us everything from there."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfeoUX765Zr
Zoey and I went in 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYei1NN7F8i
G-Dragon's car making sure I sat in the backseat. The others got in the 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeF5ifF7HnZ
other cars and we drove off, G-Dragon's car leading the way.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQIH2WcooQ9
We were all back in the 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzzM74qs1r
hotel on our floor. Luckily, Collins wasn't around. I was relieved. Now I870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSx7VSlBiqy
could vent out all my anger on Zoey.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlUYB361BB
We gathered ourselves in870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmr5trGTPK
the lounge. The others sat on the couch and made themselves 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhTejXuZK9
comfortable. Zoey and I were left standing and I looked at her, with my 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIK1r7pAfuK
hands on my hips.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0xVu7Cjiov
"Okay, let's start with why you disappeared?" I asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqqLXGzcuMd
"No, don't ask that," said G-Dragon. "Ask who she was with first."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQTU535rbz
"I'm the one asking the questions." I turned to face G-Dragon. "I want to know what made her go like that."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3iflGSOSq
"Fine, I tell you," said870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmpFEPTkZYn
Zoey raising her hand to calm me down. "G-Dragon went over to get some 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6UhceDd7b
ice cream when a person came up to me. Said he was my biggest fan."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgi69dpuQs
"Don't tell me you fell for the person's good looks like always," said Christine shaking her head.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ttavghq3O
"You know handsome men are my weakness," said Zoey. "Sorry G-Dragon."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Wcgykr9T0
"No, I don't mind," said870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu49frCQw9x
G-Dragon, shaking his head. I looked at him again and I was surprised 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSs7d4Xygtc
with the look on his face that he really didn't mind at all.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc9fzFwkgqH
"So, he said he is your biggest fan and then what?" Taeyang asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDFk6Fn6cQZ
"He offered that the two of us go out for some coffee," said Zoey. "That's how I left."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYKKMOPCBFc
"Now that makes no sense or maybe you have no sense, Zoey," said Seungri.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNzkLzZUm8l
"Huh?" Zoey looked at Seungri, looking embarrassed.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3imLKpKMa
"As much as that sounds 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqVdE8k8npi
totally embarrassing, Seungri is right," said Christine. "What you said 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXydStawsM
doesn't make sense at all. How could you go out for coffee with someone 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMqTHFzv8Fp
you claims to be your fan without taking G-Dragon along with you?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡniex9zJo0B
I started to tap my foot870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8cYwZPDjr
and looked at Zoey, ready to breathe out fire if necessary. Christine 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1cOGHD0u2
was right and surprisingly, Seungri too. She wasn't telling us the 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKi5NkkaZr
truth.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0xRWd1VyQ
"Come on, Zoey, tell us 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPS283Lunz
what really happened," I said. "You couldn't leave without GD. And you 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXTj6Yi1jK
had your phone turned off. All I know about the person you were with is 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡil2LT373IQ
that he was wearing an expensive black suit."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8E5QFY6QF
"Okay, do you really want to know the truth?" Zoey asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUtjmMqhnp
"Yes!" everyone replied at the same time, that almost made Zoey jump in fright.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhK1a5kEMBK
"Okay, okay, eish," said870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl0LaOOGgEx
Zoey. "You scared the hell out of me. The truth is, I went with my fan 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4EPhtyFYU
because he insisted that I go with him and not tell anyone about it."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmXxC9t3WB
"Huh?" TOP looked confused.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx6cUfNN9qM
"What fan lays out that kind of condition?" Mike asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8dGV2g4Is
"Someone who was ready to take advantage of Zoey," I answered.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQHncTbHRQi
"If he did, you guys still wouldn't have found me," said Zoey.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIMR6b3xn1C
"If he did, you wouldn't have been looking so nervous in the café."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4RLOZnm9bu
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.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡowPA4Bp5pw
"Then what were you two talking about?" I asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY4o1XjcfSZ
"Just stuff," said Zoey, avoiding my eyes. "About me and my celebrity life."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH83v0RQW0G
"You're sure?" I asked. "Didn't he talk about himself?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9oiKwtKOza
"Ya, totally." Zoey nodded her head. He never said anything about himself. Not even his name."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ISxjiigGD
"Then why did you look so nervous in the café?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9nGLRWc7zX
"He was asking some personal questions I didn't like."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXtwnXIR1bq
"Are you sure?" Daniel 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV4HfsGjyqi
asked. "When someone asks you a personal question, you either snap back 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3GcjFp5LA
at them or walk away. Whether it's an annoying reporter, any of your 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZgejzH3Hk
haters or even us."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamEokUVoVX
Daniel was right. Zoey 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJlXhJI1ui
would have stood and walked away from the stranger but she didn't. I 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBLtbIeTExB
wondered what question he might have asked her. That's if Zoey was 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzidVSx7zG
telling the truth.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1L9gBL8kAd
"I didn't want to look so mean in front of him," said Zoey. "He seemed like a very nice guy."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtTKzWXxsXj
"A very nice guy that 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfwR64N7Hb4
made you run off with him, made you switch off your phone and made you 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCneJVHXsKX
so uncomfortable," said G-Dragon, looking really irritated.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNdOXdeEowb
"Come on," said Zoey. "He wasn't that bad, seriously."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzlxTAkcdPy
I didn't want to 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67IVmQIzxm
pressurise Zoey with more questions. Right now, she was getting away 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUKA6LkeeFl
with it. If she was hiding something, I would find out sooner or later.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpSngoitl7w
"Okay," I said. "We're just glad you're fine."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYHAZiTZMD9
"And not dead," said 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1JaVQ230zo
Mike with a smirk. Seungri and Christine who sat on either side of him, 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQMmoZ9qgn
both gave him the elbow in the side and he howled in pain.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWcl12eV9N
"I'll pretend I never heard that," said Zoey.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMuYkfm3ZnQ
"And you better get 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIQnUNvrJp
ready for Collins," I said giving Zoey a smirk of my own. "We told him 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsNHogIRBld
you had a bad tummy ache and that's why you weren't at the studio."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyEOET2Ymrl
"Seriously?" Zoey gave me an angry stare. "Couldn't you have told him a better lie?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnH14yy7zwj
"That you were missing? Fat chance. You've already put some of us into enough trouble for one day."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtytZH8VYlY
"Alright. Sorry. I won't do that again."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDxbWSBSgG
I rolled my eyes, while shaking my head and went over to the dining table. Something told me it wouldn't be the last.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSkKo5fqFVK
"Well, now that you're found," said Daesung, as he stood up. "Some of us better get going."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeV2c8UMhpk
"Sorry for putting you guys into so much trouble," said Zoey.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJBpaW9LPn
"As long as you're fine and Collins isn't going to kill us, it's okay," said Taeyang with a smile.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLWcjClVGQq
"I'll be leaving too," said Seungri and he gave Zoey a hug and he walked over to hug me as well.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNUQd996foa
"Alright, see you tomorrow," I said.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtPQagANEuO
One by one the BigBang 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpip3ZUKH26
members started to leave, saying bye to each other. G-Dragon stayed 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEZXUcLlZpf
behind with Zoey so that they could talk a little. Giving them privacy, 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHTVzE2HTw4
Christine, my brothers and I left for our rooms.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZmcb2YYxR
When I went in my room, I870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5p7oIZQoHc
went for my phone that was still charging on my bed. The phone was 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvTnuAHpZWp
still off and I decided to switch it on. It was almost full.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiyRIEKG819
There was a knock on the door and I called out to the person to come in. Christine entered.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWVnhLDRoMz
"Hey, can we talk?" Christine asked as she closed the door behind her.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXAVdqi0Mc3
"About what?" I turned to look at her.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK37DyCX7ie
"Do you really believe what Zoey told us?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcUSL55aT6S
"No, I don't." I sat on the bed.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4tba4SUMnI
"Looks like I'm not the only one," said Christine as she came to sit on Zoey's bed, facing me.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEJmML1p7I
"I wonder why she isn't telling us the truth."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWkCaSevjG
"Did you see the man's face?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6DVdX8vOo
"No. All I could say is that he wore a fancy and expensive suit."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGbgCA66Ncs
"I wonder who he is. Maybe he is some rich tycoon or something."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsdUIjtgt0F
"That's what I thought too." I gave Christine a smile.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8Xce8MwDQ
"I bet he is good 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOJ3HOp2Tu
looking too. I still wonder why Zoey left like that without telling 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGuy6xwdvg
anyone. Do you think she really did all that just because the stranger 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZHpZdLVwg
told her to?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfMQziX887T
"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?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4JbqQyRoV
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."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSvebJwNzVu
"You said so yourself, Christine. There is no other explanation. He might have blackmailed her or something."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBSr25uCx6
"Okay, but blackmailed her with what?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5cjIXLWyg
"That we have to find out."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqoKSyLTCK
I was just about to grab my phone and check out if I had any messages when Zoey came in the room.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEO93qBuFq
"Oh. Has GD left already?" Christine asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3sIfuaKBIC
"Ya. He left," Zoey replied. I heard a bit of sadness in her voice.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6kl6X3ZZr
"Are you okay? You don't look alright," I said.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU342C73YOt
"I'm fine. G-Dragon and I talked about something serious."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0zZ9S32zl5
Oh my. Had he told her 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGbH6dD9rgZ
about what we had discussed earlier at the park? As much as I knew it 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzYnqsDUWK
was going to hurt Zoey, it was for the best. Besides, she was going to 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSFbxcWElR
find someone way better than G-Dragon. Hopefully, even me.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFc0OxmadA
"What did you talk about?" I asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmS0jRvDvq
"He was just pissed that870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkJnZhDm3V
I left like that," Zoey answered. "He thought maybe he said something 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3NAAZ8l4rU
that might have upset me or something."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrT0rM4nNPj
"Oh." That wasn't what I was expecting. "Well, I had asked him earlier if he had said something that might have upset you."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLPpmOXmoN
"But he didn't."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42vqp6DcUk
"I see why Sam asked," 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGWreRd4TF
said Christine. "When someone gets you so upset, you run away. You've 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2RquOCR3jO
done that many times before back home during our school days, you know?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYgwPS1KzeC
"Ya I know. Forget about it." Zoey waved her hand in annoyance. "What's happened has happened."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK7Qa5tpR51
And I hope it will never870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡboIC8fzWMM
happen again, but this guy in the suit still worried me. Until I know 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS46NEhHD5s
who he is, I wasn't going to pretend that the worst has passed when it 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfUmXUI0eHR
was yet to come at any moment.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNKAyE7UNF
The next thing I knew, the door to our room flew open and Lee walked in.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZXm0CFfS9
"Lee!" the three of us exclaimed in excitement.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXiKX44RG3z
"Wow! Did you guys miss me?" Lee asked with a smile on her face.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPb0axwDcRH
"Ya, we did," said Zoey, putting her arm over Lee's shoulders.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNXGnQDTk5x
"Well, I missed you too," said Lee. "So, what happened today? I heard you never finished up on the song."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJ4ueveuZb
Christine, Zoey and I 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyEC9YIYOJJ
shook our heads and talked randomly at the same time, saying nothing 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdC99FmsNN
really happened. Lee knew something was up and even if it could clearly 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4NKCZwtPkW
show on her face, she didn't push us. She just smiled.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhJzJcYCvV
"Well, you'll tell me later," said Lee. "Collins and I were just....."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZoChEaonsY
"Collins is here!" Zoey's face went white like a sheet.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH3dwKwDY1s
"Yes, he is," said Lee 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2gguF5N1nz
with a wicked smile. "Now if you don't want to get into trouble, I 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCBnx52C3cB
suggest you go on your bed and cry out that you still aren't feeling 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIaxTo3kdwq
well."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbEgmGuHvw0
Christine and I almost burst out laughing. Zoey frowned.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxV4fBZhfa
"Ha, ha, very funny," said Zoey as she went over to her bed and sat down.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeVv13AHDLD
"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."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjETJkr6Y4
"Us?" I asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYzShdg9Fkt
"Ya, the letter on the package was directed to The Toxins. It's with Collins in the lounge."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbtNg4Ap3rV
Christine and I rushed 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9aMZZybP0z
out of the room leaving Zoey with Lee. She had to pretend she was still 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2FX2tekj7S
not feeling well. We found Collins in the lounge with the package in his870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtIucVXVWMv
hand.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf1zQFPAoJx
"Hey, Collins," I said. "What's that?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvNt8FKMKj
"This came in for you guys," said Collins. "And with a letter too."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVPoFkB5bG
"Did I hear there is something for us?" Daniel asked as he and Mike came in the lounge.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKv1RUCTrF
"Ya. Here you go." Collins gave me the package.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ65nX44al7i
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.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBeDYXuJMp
I took the letter and 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdfKRKJNBnc
gave the package for Christine to hold and opened the envelope to remove870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDeVa00mM7
a letter. I unfolded the letter and I read it out loud:870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJAaVjwkDHy
"Hope you're all okay. Just wanted to say I'm your biggest fan. With lots of love."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvi7dyBoReU
"That's it?" Mike asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHBjSYygRux
"Ya, that's pretty much it," I said, looking behind the letter but there was nothing. "No name at all."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8f9pm9Hpu
"Did you see anyone who sent this?" Daniel asked Collins.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7pHbx4Z6F8
"All that the 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJqHqaIFhe
receptionist told us was that some young man in a suit gave it to her 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqkntQ8nr3v
and she should give either you guys or us when we came by the lobby."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZ7NbkmCBd
My eyes went wide and my870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPi4nqF5EmK
heart pace quickened. Did Collins just say a young man in a suit? Maybe870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPiKQdFWhWh
I heard wrong and needed some clarification.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qVEpQptpG
"A young man in a suit?" Mike asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLnN9N9IhSu
"Ya. Do you perhaps know him?" Collins asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM27A3pdzlr
"Huh, no," said Christine, shaking her head.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBogMT7JBhJ
"Oh. For a moment there, you guys looked a little frightened," said Collins. "I thought you might know him."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYP2moGxseF
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?870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr2EFaEIebd
"Open it, Christine," said Daniel.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlCeEKebuu
Christine threw Daniel 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxM2MJtHNA
an angry glance. She obviously didn't want to open it and I knew what 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZs5XjzQfcu
she was thinking. What if there was a bomb inside? Or maybe something to870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDs8AphFf7X
threaten or blackmail us? You could only think of the worst from a 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5cshd5Y1H
person you barely even knew.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZM01bIvjj
"Let me," I said as I took the package from Christine and I sat down on the couch with the package on my lap.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj00lzQxa7h
Collins was watching us for a second and then left the lounge. I sighed in relief and so did the others.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuI5gcHMUHu
"I thought he would never leave," Mike whispered after we heard the door to Collins' room open and close.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZD0zPOia8
"Can you check if he is really in his room?" I asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBet80xhNQ
Mike went in the hall and came back seconds later. "He is in the room."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8VRnzjv7J
"I'm really nervous," said Christine. "What is in there?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyePMoZMGDS
"I don't know," said Daniel. "I hope it is nothing that could kill us."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡME6vFgPdMg
Mike hit Daniel at the back of his head and Daniel whined in pain.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJdDWiKRsKl
"Don't say that," said Mike. "I don't want to die soon."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVROtZf6zR
"Guys, calm down," I said. "Let's just open this thing and see what's in it."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWgt9C027A
"Okay, but take your 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVk8puu2y9H
time," said Christine. "If there is a bomb in there, I want to say my 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9CpStfWK1m
last prayers before I leave this earth."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9uD2QiXAQ2
I rolled my eyes but I 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhniZ2FUSCd
was as scared as the rest of them. If we were to make out of this alive,870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVFgHVLbN7
I was going to kill Zoey myself for dragging us into this mess.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0MR8j6rVq
I started to unwrap the package. It was a white box.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwk8kHBNnv
The other three couldn't870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbpPMLiC3JF
stop staring at the box and I needed to end this paranoia once and for 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqIVSdhiEax
all. I quickly removed the lid without thinking that there might be 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKZyY1oruj
something dangerous in the box. The others even covered their faces. But870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FTWpTU9Vr
nothing happened.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8phnfG3KVo
"What the....?" I looked in the box and what I saw, shocked me completely.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUpZOfxzVTZ
"What is it?" Christine asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11wwbxE6yx
I looked up at the 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48e2JieyF7
others and they bended over to see what was in the box. Their jaws 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBI908ZljHC
dropped almost at the same time and we looked at each other.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNpS6sXsz25
"This is just ridiculous," I said as I shook my head.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡELIirlBlzR
Christine, Mike and Daniel suddenly burst out laughing.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5BKIRVAEiC
Zoey and Lee came rushing into the lounge.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHPVUcavRv
"Hey? What's going on?" Zoey asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPk9ipVq81
No one answered. I was too speechless to say anything and the rest were still laughing.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7cH19PCgNw
"What is in the package, Sam?" Lee asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoGNIIxEXrq
I soon removed a little cute brown teddy bear and held it up for Zoey and Lee to see.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiW3DLFbYQd
"Huh? You're laughing all because of a teddy bear?" Zoey looked at the others, wondering if they were okay in the head.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZzKz2KvFL
"Oh, my goodness, Zoey," said Christine trying to catch her breath with tears in her eyes. "Can't you see it?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTqGpjGQreF
"See what?" Zoey and Lee asked the same time.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwuLtlYZcC
"The...the...suit!" Mike laughed even more, pointing at the teddy bear.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8BJBfTw0Pd
It was then that Zoey 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZwibtckn7
looked at the bear in my hand and recognised that the tiny teddy bear 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtCbkWIOSDC
wore a tiny black suit with a tiny black tie. Zoey looked like she was 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83Ikespbfs
about to get sick. Looked like she already figured out it was the870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWc76WedbD3
stranger who she was with today that sent it.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡME0SrAL6in
"Guys, what am I missing here?" Lee asked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZGFxK6JK1
"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.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNeRN9ZHG1I
The other three continued to laugh when they saw Zoey take the bear. Lee looked as confused as ever.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPK8nNgaq0X
"And here I thought it was a bomb," said Daniel, wiping away the tears in his eyes.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIBnGXp5Ob4
"Ya. But it just turned out to be a bear in a suit," said Christine. "A harmless bear!"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs4Lo3Rbg5k
This time, they laughed 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKCOGVH233
even louder and I couldn't help but start laughing too. A minute ago, we870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh9y8VuNX6F
had feared for our lives and it was for no good reason. I saw the 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpXpNB4DAu7
