I poured myself a cup of orange juice as I looked at Christine who sat across from me at the table, having a bite of her toast. I looked at her and realised that she seemed more vibrant today. Was it because of the extra sleep we had yesterday?632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8oGaEv67V4
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWAYv5sMta
I heard footsteps coming into the lounge and I turned to see Zoey approaching the table.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6kNHH5QOt8
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJvgArae5e
"Morning, girls," she said as she drew out a chair next to mine and sat down with a bright smile on her face.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJzCUb6BW4
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWkcLLmpV4i
"Morning," Christine and I answered at the same time.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsVTFz0hd0Q
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28hqJYZram
"You ladies look very bright this morning," she said as she took a plate and placed it in front of her.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRZsvfz3pR
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5OasKTEaIj
"So do you," said Christine as she took another bite out of her french toast.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfd6SC3lLNn
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv6aruEeZCV
"I guess the sleep we had really worked wonders," I said.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCiyjAZNlNt
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIkTKvGDGdE
"Really?" Zoey asked as she looked at me and held her cheeks with her fingers as though she was massaging them. "Do I look like extra extra pretty?"632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfdYZtrx7s
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp5FbWgIbjC
I smiled at her. "You've always looked pretty, Zoey."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJzo2qVP2T
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9DAUXP75z
"Morning, people," said Mike as both him and Daniel appeared and came straight for the table.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkthp6uwoY
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYcijrqvcaE
"Morning," we answered him. I gave Daniel, a bright smile. He smiled back.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYIrbuF392u
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Y16ZoxXpi
"What's with Zoey feeling like she's all pretty?" Mike asked as he took a seat right next to Christine and Daniel sat right next to Zoey.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wJjSaz5nN
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡer9pF0UJKe
"Can't you see that I'm glowing?" Zoey asked as she beamed at Mike. "Sam says the extra sleep we had must have helped."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaiwZVoKNew
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOXt2XTYla
"Enough sleep is good for the body," said Daniel as he took the jug of orange juice.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCrQNuqwmyq
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLt1C3Bvp1
"Are we going to meet with the others today and finish up on the song?" Mike asked as he looked at me.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYC5eEAnRZJ
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKY8gYbqOVq
"I haven't communicated with either of the two groups yet," I said.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZ83CBIru9
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHOtjmk3tvO
"Mmm..., funny," said Zoey as she lifted her toast and looked at it like she was observing it. "I haven't been on my phone since last night."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyVgUH4eAxq
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3CCzhLRqO
"Really, that's all you can think about?" Christine asked.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8swG5Z26z
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3obddc9WFw
"Well..., I guess we were all tired and needed a break. Besides, last night was quite fun."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBJYMLDkal
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTABPQZ6NPf
"Tell me about it," said Daniel as he held a slice of toast and took a bite.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmz7VJPFfF5
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡewYHddaCcJ
After we went to catch up on sleep yesterday afternoon, we woke up around 7PM and we all met in the lounge where we ended up playing board games with Lee. Before supper, Collins arrived and joined in on the fun and we told him about our progress on the new song. After supper, we all sat down to watch the Korean drama series, "Boys Over Flowers." We went to bed an hour early before our usual bedtime.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeuer4AEZOg
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1j3VHDNA8
"We should have more sleeping hours, don't you think?" Mike asked.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOWKPeJeMAO
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSmyAiHTI4
"With what we are working on right now, I doubt it," I said. "Maybe after we finally head back home."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxsW0mxR8G
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAypThcaRp
"This album is going to kill us," said Zoey as she leaned her head back and looked up at the ceiling in frustration.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbogZGDORVz
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNu8kZrpBI
"You have to check up on these guys and ask if we're going to meet," said Christine as she looked at me.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqo4tRO7K4
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYplH6VILAM
"After breakfast," I said. I took a sip of my juice.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgnhkWa4Hx3
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlM4Ec3DRu0
As we continued to have our breakfast and talked about the snakes and ladders game we had yesterday, Lee and Collins came into the lounge. Lee was taking down something on her tablet while Collins talked to her, almost like he was giving her instructions. I couldn't hear what he was saying because he talked in a low tone and Zoey at the same time was the one talking at the table.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtEItovKVjn
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3D6pCNiCo
"All I am saying is," she said, "if Daniel wasn't so lucky, I would have won that game."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEg2VZmyx9X
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOIxfl42VM
"Too bad you got eaten by the snake towards the end," said Daniel as he smiled at Zoey.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbryM4R6b4y
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0PKPSXjkwG
"Sometimes I think you cheat."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoW5ObCHBHv
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvuqP7m2cQO
"Cheating in snakes and ladders is almost impossible," said Christine as I saw her shrug her shoulders. "That's if you have the super power to row the dice to the number that's most suitable."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyX8Gjl3dGX
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpimES2NR4n
"Morning," said Collins as he and Lee came towards us. "I see Zoey still hasn't gotten over that snakes and ladders game."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtCJajUQ4C7
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQKOKP3YkQ
Zoey looked down at her empty plate, not daring to look up at Collins. "Not really," she said.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGufe4HQ0aB
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu0aKBb7yWr
"Will all of BTW be meeting today to continue working on the song?" Collins asked as he looked at me.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ03xtHgn4iY
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIcjdKjNsmH
"I have to communicate with them and see if it's possible," I answered.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL04qavS79D
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4X1vUUFSNF
"Well, I sure hope so. I told Yang Hyun-suk that you already started. He wants to hear it tomorrow, so I really hope you do make progress."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv8eiesJWQl
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbMJc1JDFEE
"I better go give them a call, then."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBzJAZDkicm
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkftx9zus1
I drew my chair back and left the table. I later found myself back in the room I shared with Zoey. I went straight for my phone that was beside the bed lamp. It felt like it had stayed there for a very long time because I barely touched it last night.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8KjwXXqyyZ
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXdeOkFPDXf
I checked my lock screen and found no messages whatsoever. Maybe its because I hadn't turned the wifi on on my phone. After I unlocked it and switched on the wifi, notifications came flooding in almost at the same time most of them from social networks like Instagram and Twitter. I ignored them all as I went on my WhatsApp to check if there were any messages on the BTW chat group. But nothing.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3UW4AfIB5K
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0GKFsT9L5
"Strange," I muttered to myself as I sat on my bed. I decided to leave a message, but that wasn't going to be enough.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZTQZiiX7ED
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkI7CjKIbgP
I decided to make a call to one of the BlackPink members. Jennie was the first member on my contact list so I called her.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1UGprUYhqF
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFlT3nzIx23
I put my phone to my ear. Her phone rang but she wasn't picking up. I waited until the voicemail came up and I cut the call right away. Maybe she was still asleep or she wasn't so close to the phone. I called again and still her phone went straight to voicemail.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv7MxA6hjuE
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrRC3kUxS38
I called Jisoo next, and just like Jennie's phone, it went straight to voicemail. Something didn't feel right. Why were they both not answering their phones?632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bf4fxYKqD
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRCJk8iuEG
I went on ahead to call Seunghoon and this time, I prayed that his phone wasn't going to act like the others. Upon the third ring, he answered.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtqWHdOJZC6
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQUDtzP3HK
"Hello?" Seunghoon answered. He sounded sleepy.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNxThZNy2Ge
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGaQWUW9Q3A
"Seunghoon? Hey, are you still asleep?" I asked.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBUirIbTWs6
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hOafE5XkW
"Sam?" he sounded surprised and more awake. "Oh, I didn't notice it was you."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEI80pdWUQI
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy9vWf4gohY
"Are you guys coming to meet us here at the hotel? We have a song to work on, remember?"632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM06ETej3tY
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVXTxjdFKCx
"Oh, oh, ya, we do..., ummm, eish.....," I heard him mutter something in Korean. "You said we can meet either today or tomorrow, right?"632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52cqexkKCn
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGGoPYR3Hn
"Umm...," I raised an eyebrow. Something was definitely not right at the moment. "Yes, I did. That's why I called to see if you guys are up it."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKKc0SjMCd
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9Ngf0tpej
"Oh, umm, let me ask if these guys are up for it." I heard movement, like someone was pushing away the sheets to try and get out of bed. "I'll call you right back."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0EwFujcKj
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOiD5LBozSo
"Ya, sure."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW9IX6o4S43
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXoJZjaihSo
Seunghoon cut the call and I couldn't help but wonder. Maybe the others weren't up for meeting today. It was for the best to have it cancelled.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6tJSvhpANV
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUhjbZS1ohN
The door to the room flew open and Zoey came in.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0MLbLN8I4d
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxnilWwoAyl
"Anything?" Zoey asked.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Pp6SZus0t
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHkOwd3G9o7
"Couldn't reach Jennie or Jisoo," I answered. "But I did reach Seunghoon and he will get back to me as soon as he talks to the others."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOQhSISdGG
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYeucHsNoSe
"Okay, well, we can wait."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjU4NYEJElf
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPL0wfonrj
"Maybe we should cancel and meet tomorrow. Seunghoon was still asleep when I called."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkjfqW1p26q
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBT7tTO0aZR
"We could, but Yang Hyun-suk wants to hear the song tomorrow."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1QgH8TMPw4
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV0TRlYCCVl
"We can tell Collins to tell him that he will have to wait a little longer."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzNkxTeKtpn
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCq5xFboye9
"Geez, this is Yang Hyun-suk we're talking about. He wouldn't like taking orders from a missy like you."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7S7o9KkDwu
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsyJsmvwZH
I shrugged my shoulders. "It's just a suggestion, not an order."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrWUbijL62h
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr7jK7gZ8Es
"Ooh, you know what I mean," she said irritatingly.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNEbX0tYE1e
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhxeoFiExm
"We can't work on the song without them."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZgUJuhy7Tv
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbF3EaGjkgh
"True, but you started to work on the song way before we all met yesterday. You're a good songwriter after all."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGmeMOIfrC
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHzMFuqV9I
"I hope we won't have to write the songs of the entire album ourselves. We will need to bring out some songwriters. We don't really have much time."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeOBfOaD1Qb
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwgXlNDRHn
"Huh, funny. Collins was talking about it with Lee just now. You two seem to think alike."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4PskDDkxQL
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgfuIejsob
"Yay, we will be working on one song," I said with less enthusiasm.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGeauwndLRG
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmU0gz1L5hd
"Then get your guitar and notebook."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzfGQlPDdAY
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWPF7DFvd4
"May you help me with my guitar?" I asked. "It's in the closet."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZaCzQeSjm
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dEi1GVAb9
"Really? Why do I get to carry the heavy stuff for you?"632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJI8W0Tb2II
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIBCAyS0vf
"I never let you carry any of my heavy stuff. And besides, the guitar isn't so heavy."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGN4tzPhfXV
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzG2aYmTySF
"Whatever," Zoey rolled her eyes at me as she went to the closet to get it. I stretched out over my bed to get my notebook in one of the drawers on the other side of the bed.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ5tJbc02mB
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQaLZY6QpF
Zoey and I soon left the room, Zoey with my guitar and me, with my phone and notebook. I expected Seunghoon to have called back by now but he hadn't. Strange.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrdpPOakMY
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnVu1J8owfX
"Aah, it's good to see that you are much more serious than I thought about the song," said Collins as we entered the lounge.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJ7USw0qcb
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUu1FtH7Oge
"Of course we are," said Zoey as she smiled at Collins seated in the lounge. My brothers and Christine weren't by the dining table.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjswDe26n8a
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe7GXjXd5yS
"And what about the others?" Lee asked. She was standing right in front of us with the tablet still in her hands. "Are they going to make it?"632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFbnpqY77I
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZOG9cSOAM
"Am yet to receive a reply," I answered.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡISblkRqx9j
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubqEyDmGMx
"I hope all goes to plan," said Collins as he stood up. "Yang Hyun-suk is really looking forward to hearing the song."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJD7nORS9ip
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7R39DSllM
I gulped. Something told me it was best if the managers heard the song another day.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVGvsI1fBfD
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCDkPcx3hs
"I actually think we need a little more time," I said to Collins.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmlcyOdNkUa
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqowHlZwKfW
"Really?" he raised his eyebrow at me.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvuiZm4Z8dG
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfuQXXwpHUP
I felt Zoey look at me. She knew what I was doing. I had no other choice but to stall.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdoyvrBTnS
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3k3V36WyQ7
"Yes, really," I answered.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH9kLey4zoc
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEh1t3CK4Ep
"Whatever reason you have, fine. But you will have to finish the song because tomorrow we will meet other songwriters and composers for the album. But we will still need that song from you."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMaywF8KXYx
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPL9bRwCbqJ
I nodded my head. "It will be a great song, trust me."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMerIaECY8M
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGMZJVqRha1
Collins smiled at Zoey and I, then left the lounge heading for the elevator. It looked like he was going out as always.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYryW3f8lnU
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLfmxVhc9p
"Well, that went well," said Zoey after we were sure that Collins had gone.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSvozELgPW
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkX2KRJms4
"What went well?" Lee asked.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPMsbB4zP0h
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGoeyFB9kBz
"Nothing, nothing," said Zoey as she went ahead to put the guitar on the nearest couch and smiled at Lee.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzpEb9nIvr
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSv8Fzf3c3
I knew Lee was going to stare at me to get an answer, so, I avoided her gaze by looking at my phone. Still nothing from Seunghoon. I debated on whether to give him another call.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIkAhuM60Fh
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQsCbzTdql
I heard one of the doors open and shut in the hall followed by Christine's voice singing to a song by Maroon 5: "She will be loved" until she entered the lounge.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj6YtoQIgsh
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5LpS4sGlU3
"Any news from the others yet?" she asked as she stood beside me.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRyTcVgetW
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhHDJDxMOql
I shook my head. "I can't reach BlackPink and Seunghoon said he would inform me soon if he and the rest are going to make it."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMaLe8rwy3p
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrONq6WprN
"Bummer," she said as she went over to sit on the couch. Zoey soon joined her.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7iSxxe4m6P
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ybzKbRKoS
"Now I see why you don't want the managers hearing the song tomorrow," said Lee. "You're not sure if these guys are going to show."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9JLFBnbEs
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmWi9HK9bCF
"I thought we agreed that we were all going to rest and then meet up," said Christine.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGscziJwxQ
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg7bQI4QONe
"The sad part was I suggested we meet either today or tomorrow," I said.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOhlCUq9QT
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTBkYXg8uAn
"I think I was the one who suggested that," said Lee as she winced.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwjIOrR24v
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeG2GVrp5m7
"Judging by Sam's phone that should have rang minutes ago, we're likely to meet tomorrow," said Zoey.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHIAYKWmGR0
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJwwKM8w1gZ
She was right. I looked at my phone and I felt like I should have just left it behind in my room. Seunghoon might call to tell me that they weren't going to make it. Jisoo or Jennie would find my missed calls and call me back to say the same thing.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnXNhLEVs55
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBbOeFKP5l
"Ya, you're right," I said as I slumped my shoulders and lowered my phone. I sighed.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFxfTtblb5g
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0ROJmkdNF
"If these guys are taking a day off, don't you think we should as well?" Zoey asked.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUd2AXihzDj
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsCfbp79u1p
"No!" Christine, Lee and I said at the same time.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIfOrM2kKM
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6lEKgRmsHC
Zoey's face was one filled with disappointment. "I really wanted to go shopping."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2eGJEMF2XH
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjV7xI5rkJT
"If they won't come, we will work on the song ourselves," I said. "I'll just text them-"632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFt2DdKCbe
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNzFXRHz0A6
The phone beeps in my hand. I looked at it and I found a message from Seunghoon. I read the message saying that they won't be able to make it. I texted back and told him we would meet tomorrow.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnuTS0kElDo
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rgsmtb4b2
After pressing the send button, Lee asked, "was that Seunghoon?"632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDchyCPxdEN
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8kH1jvObX
"Yep, and he said they aren't going to make it."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVL58DsFih
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZPGDw6m2XS
"Well, you saw this coming," said Zoey.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaYzdfWhui0
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZPIPTxn4sv
"And you did well to stall the managers," said Lee. "That will give you some breathing space."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNR97VHUF8L
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPM19wppAN3
"We better start working on the song," I said as I went over to the couch where my guitar lay and lifted it to create space to sit. "Where are Mike and Daniel?"632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr1NesJv1Wd
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5kUKOJfpUR
"I can go call them, they are in their room," said Lee.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2h3YRMd8ak
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn16x6uJ6km
She didn't even have to leave the lounge as Mike and Daniel soon appeared.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW8t2Bgrbxq
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAcnxotse4U
"We're working on the song already?" Daniel asked. "Aren't we waiting for the others?"632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhFB8lhKKw
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBrN0xYTaGS
"They won't make it today," said Zoey as I sat down.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRljQaPF3zb
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNyCNBtk6R
"Mmm..., how come?" Mike asked, sounding puzzled.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIGmbQIWCTm
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjfhWNzyIq
"They wouldn't say, just that they can't make it, at least that's what Seunghoon told me on behalf of WINNER," I said. "I'm yet to hear from BlackPink."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEFZ5cHBT6d
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4Szm7Uzn5
"Bummer," said Daniel as he came to sit right beside me.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPTycskf19
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPYwpOeBfIs
"Not to worry, we can still make progress without them. Shall we begin?"632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYNl2S8skE7
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXEuCxc0XaY
Mike sat opposite Daniel and I. We first did a recap of the song and continued working on the first verse since that was where we left off. Without the others it was kind of difficult since Mino and Seungyoon came up with great lyrics for the first verse. We had to go with the flow though and it didn't seem so bad.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHlpEOZjhEL

We were still on the first verse, checking out sentences and debating whether one word sounded better than the other when my phone rang. It laid on the armrest of the couch. I checked who was calling and rolled my eyes.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVqDXVCIZQ
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYHSjfK18l
"Who's calling, Sam?" Daniel asked.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsIoLVzmujt
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8ixJEg3Ma
"I'll tell you," said Zoey, "it's G-Dragon. If it's not, then it's probably someone who's just as annoying as he is."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8dsE6WDV9P
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKd9Qipyl7
"It's him, alright," I said as I took the phone and picked up the call. "Hey, GD."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxfPbdJFkHA
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4NaUDn50CB
"Hi, I'm in the elevator right now coming to your floor. I'll be there in like 30 seconds."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8I9LB32ST
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTCQJETUcuf
"Wait, you're....," the line went dead. I stared at the phone.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZKcNAaonz
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsiisYGy6mY
"What is it?" Christine asked.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXVFETN6jpE
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvcH9GfHKvG
We heard the sound of the elevator doors on our floor announcing the arrival of our visitor.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUT68MgjyFp
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb94KWS6cNS
"He's here," I said.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkg56sa24Fl
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWqiyYOxL43
Lee who sat at the dining table, working, asked, "how come we were never informed at the reception of his arrival?"632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq5od652efD
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJ8snQWG3X
"It's because I told them not to," came G-Dragon as he appeared in the lounge.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5bivEgAUA
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNPdanFWecN
We turned to look at him. Somehow, I wasn't surprised that he was here.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaOTn1IgK3O
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXkNKZoN35p
"Hello, everyone," he greeted as he came to where the five of us, sat.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZC6iUAk6N
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNszZyJ3EWq
Four of us, including Lee, replied to his greeting except Zoey who said, "how come you're here?"632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqo9Y4zHvua
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1gSqDpGwzb
"What's wrong with me being here?" he asked as he shrugged his shoulders.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEtX8gktaPa
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUGp2vFc0Rw
"For someone who went partying last night, you seem pretty sober."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDYKaMI3Sc
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPScKlxjxp
"Oh.., how did the party go anyway?" Christine asked.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGMg59TXR0C
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgX4nNXC5NK
"It was great," he said with a happy grin.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrbFn5VC3f
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsN6ozGBaR3
"Zoey has a point, though," said Mike. "For someone who had a great time at the party, you seem pretty sober and...," he snapped his fingers as he tried to think of a word.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Q3JrhCdas
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqOe4myLNlB
"Normal?" Daniel suggested. Though he was only joking.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkaYWMC2XEF
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6naIRyKLyU
"Wait, you think I'm not normal?" G-Dragon asked. He almost looked offended.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvqJ8GDnaX7
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqamzSmAvzZ
"Nah, that's not the word, Daniel," said Mike. "It doesn't matter anyway."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTC18wXgFF7
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0ygwr26C6
I looked over at Mike and he had a small smirk on his face that was almost unnoticeable to everyone else. I found Daniel also staring at his brother and then he looked at me. The two of us knew he meant what Daniel said.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTLHbZ8Hmns
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorKQbJzfZI
"We had a blast yesterday," said G-Dragon as he went over to join Mike on the couch. "I thought you checked the photos on Instagram."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBo6XBCoL0w
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIQvg1jQ8PU
"Did you just say 'we?'" I asked as I raised my eyebrow at him.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz1jxvyEFGm
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjhIV9cTsKW
"What?" he asked as if he hadn't heard my question. I felt like he did.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5NVA4OM5a0
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHvzotGqnGE
"You said 'we.' Who else were you with?"632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuS7pDOILGX
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ89cyukf9Bn
"Oh.., just friends, very close..., very good friends," he answered as he nodded his head.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwNr5o3dbjN
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08y8csBRDX
"Okay," I said as I slowly nodded back. "I'm glad you had fun."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNzo0CN8lA
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTP7LtYitmE
"You guys should have come. It was amazing."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEhzfZUxXNr
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJhJoqjwsD
"Too late for that now, isn't it?" Christine asked.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLWSPVaujVR
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrmZsr0gHlL
"Yep, too late. But you could still see the pics of how much fun we had."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt2UyWS99d6
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmETAw55zaz
"I bet there was plenty of booze too," said Zoey.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXiog3Lh6Tv
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHyGJppehpU
"Plenty," said G-Dragon with a smile.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT0obrPVzOY
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjEv4wpA3CI
I couldn't help but feel something strange with what G-Dragon said a few sentences ago. Maybe I was just imagining things. Any who....632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbv9f4tuhyc
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxuDepFDoQe
"We can check the pics later," I said. "We have a song to write."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2a4ztD9g0e
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoljeE7Gugp
"The others aren't here yet?" G-Dragon asked. "How can you work on the song without them?"632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHn84BbsdT
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoDSY5Uo3zu
"Seunghoon called to tell me they weren't going to make it. I haven't heard anything from BlackPink but I doubt they will come, so I called off the meeting and we are working on it instead."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDQbYEChIi
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqr3294hoqj
"Oh. I think that's fair considering that they must be tired from the party."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsB6NEHPomU
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8QYHnYGusO
I looked at G-Dragon, and so did the rest of the Toxins.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0QP4ykcXp
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeNcUjqCruy
"They were with you at the party?" Daniel asked.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUx4kd0N5D
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSNfUUE4OJQ
"Huh....?" G-Dragon now looked like the confused one. "I thought you knew."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Bk9wkyRCI
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡED1paYY0bb
"How would we know when we were resting yesterday and we were completely off social media?" Christine asked.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0iwAWSv0R
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UFUzPeN3z
G-Dragon shrugged his shoulders. He left our floor early yesterday, so he had no idea that we all agreed to rest and continue working on the song later. Can't blame him for that.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzpMcHC2im
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGsVfdU4gqS
"You dragged them to the party, didn't you?" Zoey asked as she pointed a finger at him. "You're such a manipulator!"632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6VpA18wuq
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvK0B18CiPO
"I didn't convince them, I swear," he said as he raised his hands in surrender. But then he looked at me and lowered them. "Okay..., maybe a little."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGS4LQmSO5
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt728ftVNqG
"I knew it!" Zoey said with a look on her face.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88V1YKgwk6
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGvFyYsSV9
"But ninety percent of the whole convincing thing was on the other guy."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtt7iesvRSP
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYP7WnsCuYB
"The other guy?" Mike asked as he raised his eyebrows.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOqQYtfpMzW
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrURBttWyfX
"Who's the other guy?" Christine asked.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyrLPENycwy
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDGLPNHyXBR
I knew there was something fishy about G-Dragon's earlier statements. He didn't just go and party with "just" close friends.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlWtNSt0pox
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDODhWJvYAF
"Tell us," Zoey demanded when G-Dragon didn't speak.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHskh5YcDaD
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1KM8R4pZ2Q
We looked at him as he also stared back at each one of us. The look in his eyes made me realise that he didn't want to talk for fear of what might happen next.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUdIK5TH3Q
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOcz3v7VZL
"Looks like you lost your tongue, GD," said Daniel. "Please tell us who you were with. I don't think it's that much of a big deal."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkh4wyTlYYa
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv7dZX8yKQl
G-Dragon squeezed his eyes shut in fright. And just like that, we knew it was a big deal.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoS1lGgIRZp
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxw3O6QP8YS
"Goodness, just tell us, GD," I said. "We have a song to work on and you're just wasting our time."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ45L1FPZOUr
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwrId2s7IH0
"It was a mistake coming here," said G-Dragon as he nervously stood up from the couch. "I better get going. Sorry for disturbing you."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVMRRFszde
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSuT2qHuQxw
All five of us stood up and surrounded him. It was five against one and he knew he couldn't stand a chance. We came closer, making it tight for him to leave.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHrjOPpdsSa
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZo9F3ajm5J
"GD, sit down, please," I instructed him and he did.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46RGHXMS8y
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd05skfogH1
"Now," said Zoey as she cracked her knuckles. "You're going to answer our questions. You don't want to receive these babies," she gestured to her fists, "on your face."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmjP9xPwyI7
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXM55tJU6MX
"Okay, okay," G-Dragon surrendered. "I'll tell you."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwagePnbC5y
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjkH2TtTyi
"First question," said Christine with her arms folded. "Who were you with downstairs when you left our floor yesterday?"632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwsP5PKzIGB
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4HkPUXbrWu
G-Dragon gulped as he looked at us. "You won't like the answer I am about to give you. You will kill me before I even leave this place."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfpeHEC5Z8D
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6oGNlPKiN
"We will make sure to bury you in a lovely place, promise," said Mike. "Now, spill."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl7RoF3HkZF
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7E6TWhVbj
G-Dragon sat upright and cleared his throat. "When I came out of the elevator, I saw..., I saw this guy. He recognised me immediately and said he was a big fan..., and so....., we talked for a while. We got along well...., and then that's when the others came..."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmPeeSZl4v
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeE43TA8qJx
"GD, we don't want to hear how you all met," I said, "we want a name. Who is the guy?"632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8M9tYEhaJG
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDc6CTLSQvh
"It's..., it's..., Johnny," said G-Dragon. He immediately looked down at the floor.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7imJj2pJd
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcADx7ss82x
"Johnny Jerkins!" the five of us said at the same time.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0aoh53lDpp
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7RtA2pF4qi
"Yes," G-Dragon as he slowly nodded his head, still facing downwards.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJP3iytDHGA
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SWOv7wMKg
Zoey fell onto the couch next to G-Dragon like she was about to pass out, her hand on her forehead.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqn214q6LA
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCPNfpIuHG
"I can't believe it" she said.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCU7GLE8At
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyNCjN5SEKC
"That explains everything," I said, as I looked at a certain part of the wall above the couch, my mind far off.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxVcMATPRx
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvpS2rCsMP
"No wonder they couldn't make it," said Daniel.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4ZNTTtlz9
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD53bV3MXV2
"They didn't just go to the party, they were hanging out with Johnny," said Mike.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk62hVk24wI
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2eWpnJWsgU
"Ya...., you won't like what I am about to show you," said Lee behind us.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm1NB6FqZlO
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡct470OviNh
We all turned to look at Lee as she approached with a tablet in her hands. She went to sit on the couch I had been sitting on with Daniel. I went to sit next to her, Christine on her other side. Mike and Daniel went over to stand at the back of the couch so as to see more clearly on the tablet.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvvEq5UxqWj
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrJG9onIBg
She was on Instagram and she had gone on one of G-Dragon's fan pages. One of the first photos we saw of last night was a picture of him and Johnny staring at the camera and smiling. They had hands over each other's shoulders like they were best buddies.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6rIdHlC5k
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vfv42LRZj
It was definitely Johnny Jerkins alright. His white blonde hair cropped to the sides and a strand of it falling above his right blue eye. He was almost G-Dragon's height and he had on a white shirt and brown khaki shorts. I noticed their surrounding and I couldn't help but ask:632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTRTiziMxs
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn06hGFmruo
"You guys had a party on a boat?" I looked at G-Dragon.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqgBBX0KmNL
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj09klga9Nr
"What! A cruise party!" Zoey yelled as she sat up quickly. She looked like she had woken from her slumber as she went to stand alongside my two brothers.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuoBVox23G9
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWbzXDe88pu
Lee continued to scroll down the page and more pictures came up. This time, there were some of BlackPink and WINNER having a good time with Johnny and G-Dragon. There were other pictures with fans who wanted to take pics with the K-Pop superstars.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN5pgRzaVTD
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUX9ieADrS0
"You guys had such a good time," said Zoey. "I wish I came."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8bUxoPnEl
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHqPtGVaDJ
"You see, you guys should have tagged along," said G-Dragon.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcdIZ1FwEs
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqCyPTaHwF
"And hang out with Johnny? Heck no!" Zoey detested.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡayQMJSoRpZ
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAYDOFh6luF
"He seems pretty cool."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1SClOpghD
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJo34tj7dl
"That's because you only just met him," said Daniel.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy65ciUs28t
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD3Hs0xRHOH
"You won't be hanging out with him more often, will you?" Christine asked.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1uJpf44x8
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUL3NAXxbM4
"Nah," G-Dragon denied. "I guess all that was just a one time thing."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfcqyOJIBG
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK1LJMdxwus
"That's what they all say," said Zoey. I imagined her rolling her eyes when she said that.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlbumzNRR8X
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsU5F8DF5gu
"And let's not forget, he's in this hotel," I said. "Avoiding him will be tricky."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbui557TQJ
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDIOF0XE9vT
"Don't you think maybe you guys are taking this thing a little too far?" G-Dragon asked.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5rjM0MrEx6
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKapBL1CfzA
"What thing?" Christine asked. Her eyes were still fixed on the tablet as Lee continued to scroll.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfvSMC8C0S8
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4depYZ3X2
"This 'Johnny' thing?"632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYcIzFgdF3B
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7a7zWyTL9k
I looked up from the tablet at G-Dragon and I knew I wasn't the only one.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJhDVaWRu4
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5RhmrWuZP
"Why would we?" I asked.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDtaSUNdqT
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4zGw7x3Gg
"You talk about him as if he's your worst enemy."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fqkmVapWX
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHRnHbkht3
"Look, we don't hate people, well, maybe some," said Mike. "It's just that some people aren't worth hanging out with."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhSunE9JuAs
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTrFZM78i8W
"Because of his actions back at school? Please, that was a long time ago."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtIO3qsQ8C2
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwhN7xqyEEH
"You're right," said Zoey. "It was a long time ago, but we would rather keep our distance. Some people are just toxic, you know?"632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPcbSe7FrHG
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamdkSbuGgc
"How ironic," said G-Dragon as he stood up from the couch.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWWaFMRg7Q
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhPEDfxPWjp
"Leaving already?" Lee asked.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZvn5ubJnh
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Dw6IPbLP7
"Ya, I really should. Just came to check up on the progress with the song."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcf8bH84knJ
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfTlb1KiEm
G-Dragon didn't seem like himself. I looked at him and this time I didn't give him a criticising look like I always do. I could tell he was upset if not sad.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdUjleE1f2A
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOfzQdQxph
"I'll escort you to the elevator," I said as I stood up from the couch.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZgU29QzbpB
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7fbfOWtNSW
"Ok," he said and he turned to address the others, "I'll see you guys later."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGvF69TBffO
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwTK4yhk1QE
"Bye, GD," the rest replied at the same time. Their tone sounded low almost as if they didn't want to upset him any further.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhESKEBSTZo
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2YRhrcBtz
G-Dragon made his way out of the lounge and I was right behind him.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPbXNk6d2gr
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPOjE1R3Va
"Well, you seem upset," I said to him when we were in the hall.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡImvNvsbSOL
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5QDE6ImmNF
"No, I'm not," he said as he shrugged his shoulders.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDRlxb9ZWr
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vhLzU1Chc
I held his shoulder and he stopped walking, his back still facing me.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLiKo8XdRBS
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3PK9yn71j
"I know when you're upset," I said as I dropped my hand. "I think the others know too."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtroTgUeG1K
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4zWtQgnhU
He turned around to look at me. "I don't get you guys at all," he said.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94MKg7Taht
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNr0wwSHcks
"What do you mean?" I folded my arms.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GJ9OWwWGu
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQt9DcPqVs
"I mean, you guys are the nicest and coolest people I have ever met and I never thought you would be so spiteful about someone. You weren't all like this when you were dealing with Jehan...., well, maybe Zoey, but even she wasn't so extreme."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSxOrJlI5B
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk9JxQ1MCBM
"We aren't perfect, you know? We have our emotions too, whether good or bad."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBkub7tRzU
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmFNGcg1WH
"But why hate on Johnny so much?"632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfk8IrPFS3y
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9BrIl5Ty37
I shook my head. "We don't hate him. We do hate what he did to us in the past, but we don't actually hate him."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2xySb35vRZ
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡevQjV0Qt7f
"Really?"632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMj9f3ZXMj
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ULaiyOl9X
"If we really did, we would have called him worse names than 'jerk' now, wouldn't we?"632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡreiBrv2Zx5
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo8JkopmOUk
G-Dragon bit his lip and he didn't have to admit I was right. "Then why can't you come to peace with him?" he asked. "You don't even want to cross paths with him, like ever."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCN5GjE6dI
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7vouXklE1
I sighed as I dropped my arms. "Some people aren't worth mingling around with, Jiyong."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtCYLmKXxdp
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSbcLIoeGv
"Is there something you aren't telling me?" He raised his eyebrow at me and took a step closer.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo8PQ2zCOm7
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71Nf9SosKS
I shrugged my shoulders. "Kind of," I answered. "You're yet to know everything in due time."632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx3pYkNuD5P
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWMRZLWQNU
G-Dragon slowly nodded his head. I could tell that he understood and is willing to wait. But for how long is the million dollar question.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgixwgOzLgm
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnY5twlUxJ
"Okay, I'll see you around, then," said G-Dragon as he managed to smile.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv2np5IvhzB
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jElZS6m42

For a moment, we didn't say a thing as Lee stood up from the couch, taking the tablet with her back to the dining table. The others who stood went to take their seats. For a moment, some of us sat, slumped on the couch.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr2rlQwnG25
632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCa0zmNSVTX
"Aren't you guys going to continue working on the song?" Lee asked at the dining area. We had been quiet for what felt like forever.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpn0HBl8YIU

The five of us all looked at each other. It was surprising we wanted something sweet to boost our spirits. We needed some fresh air too. We all turned to look at Lee who sighed. She needed a doughnut too.632Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjhIByqS5Jh
