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?743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzc7qxz6cdS
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJJJRVaSKZ
I heard footsteps coming into the lounge and I turned to see Zoey approaching the table.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo9nd3mjotn
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQ691YkwTq
"Morning, girls," she said as she drew out a chair next to mine and sat down with a bright smile on her face.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfl1mOHd7GF
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3FsLTI8FJJ
"Morning," Christine and I answered at the same time.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJeSPcZFbVt
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0K7IINyhb6
"You ladies look very bright this morning," she said as she took a plate and placed it in front of her.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFlfapyNDe5
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPN3ehliLD
"So do you," said Christine as she took another bite out of her french toast.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHO5m1ErUBf
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYgr8iAatnd
"I guess the sleep we had really worked wonders," I said.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk0oEy94jTd
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkvMP0pl7g
"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?"743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpFQIkv5MEt
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAEwrqDtc9U
I smiled at her. "You've always looked pretty, Zoey."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrJRS3FQKa
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvyDiJVjRrv
"Morning, people," said Mike as both him and Daniel appeared and came straight for the table.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJaCqighhpH
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtYkWj89rA
"Morning," we answered him. I gave Daniel, a bright smile. He smiled back.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWpPpYNUFk
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkykHqFqpek
"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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡETp54QFI9g
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ97HbX7qTn3
"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."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8XXuhkcnfO
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl343qnDtZR
"Enough sleep is good for the body," said Daniel as he took the jug of orange juice.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxCeup1oQJP
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVfzvUYaQQ
"Are we going to meet with the others today and finish up on the song?" Mike asked as he looked at me.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyonzQW030m
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoALKvggd37
"I haven't communicated with either of the two groups yet," I said.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrL8kiEhdH
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmfxyrIAXa7
"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."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9fEfS3YeOz
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qHGhs7004
"Really, that's all you can think about?" Christine asked.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAnXwVz9ver
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMiMPVjWqj
"Well..., I guess we were all tired and needed a break. Besides, last night was quite fun."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXIBAW2eo1z
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9mUY3N5ycu
"Tell me about it," said Daniel as he held a slice of toast and took a bite.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvD0nKYewvi
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWawSOBz75E
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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9UyIUV26Wq
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXx9uCl4wMO
"We should have more sleeping hours, don't you think?" Mike asked.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs2w80V9v2u
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZ26y6xJa1
"With what we are working on right now, I doubt it," I said. "Maybe after we finally head back home."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB9J2pAaRL3
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgdjA55mex
"This album is going to kill us," said Zoey as she leaned her head back and looked up at the ceiling in frustration.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9vXGmhW5J4
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvai6PzZxCr
"You have to check up on these guys and ask if we're going to meet," said Christine as she looked at me.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFcFDexLTW4
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIH83yO7rVx
"After breakfast," I said. I took a sip of my juice.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXeWoNlrXxE
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWyXrAiywbn
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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJzkYwB4gn
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYOfnSwWVU6
"All I am saying is," she said, "if Daniel wasn't so lucky, I would have won that game."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWC0oOqT2nH
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp7bzPPtb41
"Too bad you got eaten by the snake towards the end," said Daniel as he smiled at Zoey.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlslAXJr3m
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU34LZOYRId
"Sometimes I think you cheat."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡloMdME7Hxe
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9vQIDeoggu
"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."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHoJXmJFunw
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7nW8KkMYq1
"Morning," said Collins as he and Lee came towards us. "I see Zoey still hasn't gotten over that snakes and ladders game."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxdqCoWqrd
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7s6w4Lp9e
Zoey looked down at her empty plate, not daring to look up at Collins. "Not really," she said.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6PLZiiZKZ
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡooCrPysvKK
"Will all of BTW be meeting today to continue working on the song?" Collins asked as he looked at me.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiTK0f61ESI
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUzlu3nGuIU
"I have to communicate with them and see if it's possible," I answered.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1yWVlk9lGV
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzYXafPOVlC
"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."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5jzak0CA1T
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpFw0Br1KEt
"I better go give them a call, then."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLdcHUBWFP
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwyCtw1Y9xr
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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLxpvJOE0R
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jT6dqUpGG
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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlNo4tM4RDN
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGCsEN6duZw
"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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6405EZM4mL
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXeRENhJnpQ
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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZounQRnD80
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ4K1MXjMns
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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMVKFYhm8BR
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfhN37Sux9T
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?743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcExrrU0QWK
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ64cupMdo3d
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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiA0ks34nh4
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqp0uz9uHux
"Hello?" Seunghoon answered. He sounded sleepy.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQrPR7aYEb
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmdF6vvXzB
"Seunghoon? Hey, are you still asleep?" I asked.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrcVrEaFGA
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1QrR3cjYMi
"Sam?" he sounded surprised and more awake. "Oh, I didn't notice it was you."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡllunb5i5bI
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkO6cQRjOLY
"Are you guys coming to meet us here at the hotel? We have a song to work on, remember?"743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9zBmXd3O33
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0iZMs6YxBs
"Oh, oh, ya, we do..., ummm, eish.....," I heard him mutter something in Korean. "You said we can meet either today or tomorrow, right?"743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoIzOfcrwHu
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamcGIVOiWJ
"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."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gyrKhrjYa
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP14fUyEtgk
"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."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe31JP6Da9k
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGCdaWnpduq
"Ya, sure."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFzBZNdSBP
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZBm3acul88
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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfsjRDVHGT
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa588J0z915
The door to the room flew open and Zoey came in.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqjIJ4DIPQ
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVDG7XJzy8
"Anything?" Zoey asked.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡju4HLzWIaL
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2r84RJxQV
"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."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhgGwdoAP2
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWL1nV4mUdD
"Okay, well, we can wait."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV3JzFwAylK
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQBP1ueMI4
"Maybe we should cancel and meet tomorrow. Seunghoon was still asleep when I called."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJp2cN3kAAD
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WcSuoxB9I
"We could, but Yang Hyun-suk wants to hear the song tomorrow."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMu8s8fywy
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCx8VrfxCI7
"We can tell Collins to tell him that he will have to wait a little longer."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo48SUW5Auu
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6cu5x1DMcZ
"Geez, this is Yang Hyun-suk we're talking about. He wouldn't like taking orders from a missy like you."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKj5Xjb2Kyr
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3q95ZXZLXy
I shrugged my shoulders. "It's just a suggestion, not an order."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR8BfDRNcrc
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQjGb1d5kUJ
"Ooh, you know what I mean," she said irritatingly.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡduscYZt4cy
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9nOQQ6D1k
"We can't work on the song without them."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhRvNeilYEX
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdaac5s1iG
"True, but you started to work on the song way before we all met yesterday. You're a good songwriter after all."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3Jio56QHD
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8mlG1QED1e
"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."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJIss9NXIl
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezaab9WCnE
"Huh, funny. Collins was talking about it with Lee just now. You two seem to think alike."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn176iEJfGu
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUUkD5sUJV
"Yay, we will be working on one song," I said with less enthusiasm.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZzfLbeKNI
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYE60mV6Cgm
"Then get your guitar and notebook."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJA3t8YhvRu
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqgPigabvkV
"May you help me with my guitar?" I asked. "It's in the closet."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT8epytnexo
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9CeRHB4a9a
"Really? Why do I get to carry the heavy stuff for you?"743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1g7szVy3mc
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5UbdrqWDSU
"I never let you carry any of my heavy stuff. And besides, the guitar isn't so heavy."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1mShPfCSj7
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrgrrsGy9ya
"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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVKdNaaQ9yL
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjBTFpfyJ8
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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrcecETHszY
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnefxV04ygj
"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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGqsjCpL0d
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvKga10daBs
"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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlN4btP1HZR
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ029IIeWdv
"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?"743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBr0UuLAHIn
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhkXOHgITss
"Am yet to receive a reply," I answered.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyy9Bfj1To4
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRI0ffGFLg
"I hope all goes to plan," said Collins as he stood up. "Yang Hyun-suk is really looking forward to hearing the song."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWuiJ8Unlm
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOv6QvUmD8
I gulped. Something told me it was best if the managers heard the song another day.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzd7uRPxDO
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3UvnbXu3p0
"I actually think we need a little more time," I said to Collins.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgTmSa4GPoX
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZywWWNeJTe
"Really?" he raised his eyebrow at me.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ40mASpPk7J
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡepf8rNBZyO
I felt Zoey look at me. She knew what I was doing. I had no other choice but to stall.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1iguckPAO
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUU9kaHDn8a
"Yes, really," I answered.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxixPtpvYyi
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxy72jDh1ur
"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."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo8j6cdbIxD
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO38SA4yTAy
I nodded my head. "It will be a great song, trust me."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmcVtxw8Djk
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5OXqPUL0Y
Collins smiled at Zoey and I, then left the lounge heading for the elevator. It looked like he was going out as always.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPXqVJDJxZ0
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXrwfdT07E
"Well, that went well," said Zoey after we were sure that Collins had gone.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ61SMdrfDZk
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9X6cvgrB9Q
"What went well?" Lee asked.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMK2IwybkPT
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kdkusIVA0
"Nothing, nothing," said Zoey as she went ahead to put the guitar on the nearest couch and smiled at Lee.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPs0RNvBDtn
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp42eGsOrc5
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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHI3FzIvLJ
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAv9U27aO5T
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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsKb3kZpN1
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4G3MOMelng
"Any news from the others yet?" she asked as she stood beside me.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDoX931OiIE
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqoklkdoVCS
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."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0YIFE8rf8J
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzYZGrOrVZ
"Bummer," she said as she went over to sit on the couch. Zoey soon joined her.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZMKnmQbEY
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡstDVCYSlsz
"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."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXWufiEFsDW
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMN6VqeyN2
"I thought we agreed that we were all going to rest and then meet up," said Christine.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8qnBtVXaK
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgiP1efdxV
"The sad part was I suggested we meet either today or tomorrow," I said.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9u3gBtNlrM
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUOhmJykI7
"I think I was the one who suggested that," said Lee as she winced.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbIfj2JRL5
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hyfAafo6j
"Judging by Sam's phone that should have rang minutes ago, we're likely to meet tomorrow," said Zoey.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHWSq1jGGm
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXyXMyInTF
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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGLfMxNnN5
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFTg7goIfXF
"Ya, you're right," I said as I slumped my shoulders and lowered my phone. I sighed.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlnVVoyznm4
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ443S8t4as8
"If these guys are taking a day off, don't you think we should as well?" Zoey asked.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7TRUChx4rg
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTftzisyU91
"No!" Christine, Lee and I said at the same time.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYNdGeAflFk
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWl6IQgXnl8
Zoey's face was one filled with disappointment. "I really wanted to go shopping."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ93kzougMrP
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRSoALHr5W
"If they won't come, we will work on the song ourselves," I said. "I'll just text them-"743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBnUP69b0YB
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzF96Z3aslC
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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGSNXHlctdb
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWPbmyTNGle
After pressing the send button, Lee asked, "was that Seunghoon?"743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGwd8CTcf4
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmMgKfia8P0
"Yep, and he said they aren't going to make it."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡof8vfPAoKH
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0utHrYRHqB
"Well, you saw this coming," said Zoey.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡotAAtVEPJf
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhxBtSw6Wbm
"And you did well to stall the managers," said Lee. "That will give you some breathing space."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4uF7R3dE8d
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDwRdHTx3Mj
"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?"743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9pI2LaMam
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5LXmNYvp4P
"I can go call them, they are in their room," said Lee.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTwcpXPaqj
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOivL01IJPD
She didn't even have to leave the lounge as Mike and Daniel soon appeared.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFM0GPpV3fj
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpbh10ibd8l
"We're working on the song already?" Daniel asked. "Aren't we waiting for the others?"743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb24Oia4VmQ
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5QTrRFgfb6
"They won't make it today," said Zoey as I sat down.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDSO7sCWRj
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsrKAJztZb
"Mmm..., how come?" Mike asked, sounding puzzled.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJ9NQNQUJv
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXDCyQwUkF
"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."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1LWU39I4Cd
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXbU8SG1Gk
"Bummer," said Daniel as he came to sit right beside me.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCEHaLx4ulx
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQwNF52liH
"Not to worry, we can still make progress without them. Shall we begin?"743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIsLzVj2Sa9
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQa3MfUxfvm
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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcaSHNqM8nx

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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn3RR0pAc4O
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ETD4kiIWF
"Who's calling, Sam?" Daniel asked.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpb6kJ5ZjMc
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSV09bj30L1
"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."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOzJI7oUiLu
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpu353gjDA0
"It's him, alright," I said as I took the phone and picked up the call. "Hey, GD."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmKO0jsGWde
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOrZgp972Xy
"Hi, I'm in the elevator right now coming to your floor. I'll be there in like 30 seconds."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11PqDrqsvv
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrhcx2mMFD5
"Wait, you're....," the line went dead. I stared at the phone.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJxwco2JF3
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE902ONdP2q
"What is it?" Christine asked.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2jcblX3U1j
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlGroX4kH6
We heard the sound of the elevator doors on our floor announcing the arrival of our visitor.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtE0uVFneo
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdi2ZaY5eFL
"He's here," I said.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGz7VFtmEIt
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ90j7DBre6J
Lee who sat at the dining table, working, asked, "how come we were never informed at the reception of his arrival?"743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhYBLYALB9A
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjfySJ08kTV
"It's because I told them not to," came G-Dragon as he appeared in the lounge.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡszQu8Z7MW7
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXCAicZchz
We turned to look at him. Somehow, I wasn't surprised that he was here.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOgyKHc7q5T
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi66C69HvqC
"Hello, everyone," he greeted as he came to where the five of us, sat.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuikpupVlCH
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzBnB4Me4K
Four of us, including Lee, replied to his greeting except Zoey who said, "how come you're here?"743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDG8BTP4gHs
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOp16vXGMSh
"What's wrong with me being here?" he asked as he shrugged his shoulders.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslWLwtS66s
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBAIlWfW49
"For someone who went partying last night, you seem pretty sober."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8WXrh21XEi
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4MOeV2yWFK
"Oh.., how did the party go anyway?" Christine asked.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpR2oG5I4GP
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYzuzbcYWEt
"It was great," he said with a happy grin.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPoiV6Hz0g
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPveEzjKNQg
"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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOzJLW6Mc3C
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4NOcsBYv58
"Normal?" Daniel suggested. Though he was only joking.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUGXQEqCFJ8
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmZqQQm6pH
"Wait, you think I'm not normal?" G-Dragon asked. He almost looked offended.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf0vSiQ31KO
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZEhfqyE1v2
"Nah, that's not the word, Daniel," said Mike. "It doesn't matter anyway."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqKmBGAMWW
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBAl5eXtHZZ
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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHqYZ909rj
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtAd7iKN7o
"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."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4j1RKUtguH
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJR56pFQ17
"Did you just say 'we?'" I asked as I raised my eyebrow at him.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBotnEnWVd
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVP6sZFzyG
"What?" he asked as if he hadn't heard my question. I felt like he did.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTVXibyK1BY
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVV7lcfEFy
"You said 'we.' Who else were you with?"743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpYa4xSs1Yf
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDh3AJWrylJ
"Oh.., just friends, very close..., very good friends," he answered as he nodded his head.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFOJsMTvdu
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKY4VrbjD7
"Okay," I said as I slowly nodded back. "I'm glad you had fun."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDLrQ82xKu
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE3yJpt7ryy
"You guys should have come. It was amazing."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKqzC6ZUAg
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBzZfvRz1kh
"Too late for that now, isn't it?" Christine asked.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEszppCUiWc
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsm95RSZcb9
"Yep, too late. But you could still see the pics of how much fun we had."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMEkHTmzZe5
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUaKZCCFcgz
"I bet there was plenty of booze too," said Zoey.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTaHOYwOXXp
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqK1eqbsc59
"Plenty," said G-Dragon with a smile.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPTJhUWdfN7
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvU4TxFGomw
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....743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKEtCgewUjq
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8CVXdsyNLj
"We can check the pics later," I said. "We have a song to write."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hFvBWyWQm
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZQp9epA8s
"The others aren't here yet?" G-Dragon asked. "How can you work on the song without them?"743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPWRmFJHk3J
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAazNXBq1p9
"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."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg1kJN9Fopq
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyARTO3nhH
"Oh. I think that's fair considering that they must be tired from the party."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtV2m3rkl1R
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKmAVBd1Z9
I looked at G-Dragon, and so did the rest of the Toxins.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQ8mwaTPMa
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KC0qXPMV4
"They were with you at the party?" Daniel asked.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9g4F5bwvuY
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcnMdrQpgEL
"Huh....?" G-Dragon now looked like the confused one. "I thought you knew."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxldFAD177x
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7CMEprSt5f
"How would we know when we were resting yesterday and we were completely off social media?" Christine asked.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8CkhzDWi6
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvARq9GQMUV
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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXBSIPiPYh
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWsUAEJY6U
"You dragged them to the party, didn't you?" Zoey asked as she pointed a finger at him. "You're such a manipulator!"743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBePf3pW141
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡowD3YdHyuo
"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."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtBIKq4BoOl
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vI6ZGQTKP
"I knew it!" Zoey said with a look on her face.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFoz8uLsyk5
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9yW1aqsQyv
"But ninety percent of the whole convincing thing was on the other guy."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKqwgbTooa
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0dDDRDYimw
"The other guy?" Mike asked as he raised his eyebrows.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡptT6WTf49f
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFSEqeLfJZA
"Who's the other guy?" Christine asked.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9hFtYzIVhP
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr1oLKfJLwz
I knew there was something fishy about G-Dragon's earlier statements. He didn't just go and party with "just" close friends.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGvpzCQE84W
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOVGmLULTLS
"Tell us," Zoey demanded when G-Dragon didn't speak.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9JLJdOvqS
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjEduE4Etq
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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXD7sukK3qB
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFYR9hVGue
"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."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcMkkpckzsy
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSX465rTY5S
G-Dragon squeezed his eyes shut in fright. And just like that, we knew it was a big deal.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXr2KDoKiA
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHMgZl8Fb60
"Goodness, just tell us, GD," I said. "We have a song to work on and you're just wasting our time."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVFcZb4Kxb
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLWXXZJbVU
"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."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DR7R0pcLl
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8WpYkCFARJ
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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBKb3MlHLP
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7eR2GUEWv
"GD, sit down, please," I instructed him and he did.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfDWorMSNQ
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqzNuuPllLo
"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."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiGCWRe257h
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJZlwL1EXB
"Okay, okay," G-Dragon surrendered. "I'll tell you."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgARa1Zz6kx
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgA0riD2HPR
"First question," said Christine with her arms folded. "Who were you with downstairs when you left our floor yesterday?"743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQG4v67iN1T
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZopTK7IFOr
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."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6pNZqqgK0t
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqqsRbLiRf6
"We will make sure to bury you in a lovely place, promise," said Mike. "Now, spill."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP29mADiS2X
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7LXHmfqSjc
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..."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe6VErazVgE
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNKfdNFiEG
"GD, we don't want to hear how you all met," I said, "we want a name. Who is the guy?"743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQJDCMOMPO
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1SlWwpBpU6
"It's..., it's..., Johnny," said G-Dragon. He immediately looked down at the floor.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3yJJPBw0zV
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8kz4sVpsPA
"Johnny Jerkins!" the five of us said at the same time.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSGoohtZLM
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6eZlFI9WR
"Yes," G-Dragon as he slowly nodded his head, still facing downwards.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYq5ObsPxXn
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0s99OnppHz
Zoey fell onto the couch next to G-Dragon like she was about to pass out, her hand on her forehead.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6oWJCftVf6
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNvBkNN729
"I can't believe it" she said.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoAdCuHTwUu
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8A5sIrKyh7
"That explains everything," I said, as I looked at a certain part of the wall above the couch, my mind far off.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmA89b42GqO
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJgXDcHU2AC
"No wonder they couldn't make it," said Daniel.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrF2FTf92s
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIwTRsp61l
"They didn't just go to the party, they were hanging out with Johnny," said Mike.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡecc39yqkQd
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqLgK1yrMx
"Ya...., you won't like what I am about to show you," said Lee behind us.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jQ87yzjKd
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8HBn7NcVs
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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU78tvcxRSl
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqjOaQXdeE
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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8snHoVgmsA
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPEQsIumvL
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:743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3rShJdWYs
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJccHUbmx7
"You guys had a party on a boat?" I looked at G-Dragon.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyy3xphfhrI
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkyJKcW7Pnw
"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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1zdy7lhDIP
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6WJPCUmL1
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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5acpmN7KRF
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxAV24yssDm
"You guys had such a good time," said Zoey. "I wish I came."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9SjYPfGQU
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQoa1jFcSed
"You see, you guys should have tagged along," said G-Dragon.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFbbJmubGl
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCKmqaWDcsY
"And hang out with Johnny? Heck no!" Zoey detested.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIlM8PGIUlm
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQcURfdmt6
"He seems pretty cool."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLLzRbe6v7
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZxwWQiowX
"That's because you only just met him," said Daniel.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfbZZB0dwQg
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT4McdraumL
"You won't be hanging out with him more often, will you?" Christine asked.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡswJ8TI0Dkl
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfgsZ3zBUi
"Nah," G-Dragon denied. "I guess all that was just a one time thing."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNSzF7GhQq
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrwV1TLDh4
"That's what they all say," said Zoey. I imagined her rolling her eyes when she said that.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwlUlwby1H
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuta24jpETZ
"And let's not forget, he's in this hotel," I said. "Avoiding him will be tricky."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqBHjQtcSzL
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkeG354fpSb
"Don't you think maybe you guys are taking this thing a little too far?" G-Dragon asked.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiy0H520jzQ
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNEqfLjhdDG
"What thing?" Christine asked. Her eyes were still fixed on the tablet as Lee continued to scroll.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLmGvgFXMP7
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2XYujGlSw
"This 'Johnny' thing?"743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPyGpldDL7
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ87zX7vQe8
I looked up from the tablet at G-Dragon and I knew I wasn't the only one.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1kyKTDI9qu
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbA3AT0Dew9
"Why would we?" I asked.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrcZUnMsYgq
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpojo7MHSpP
"You talk about him as if he's your worst enemy."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLlxiJJXX8
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvELMbzVB0y
"Look, we don't hate people, well, maybe some," said Mike. "It's just that some people aren't worth hanging out with."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGMN5zLvB06
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4eE5oPTdsm
"Because of his actions back at school? Please, that was a long time ago."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6sH10xflHN
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfaqZVFcfdC
"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?"743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3qXaHM3Th
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyEh2cZDbA1
"How ironic," said G-Dragon as he stood up from the couch.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8GHplXWpvh
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD08xcHxPA7
"Leaving already?" Lee asked.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4XDcnQEp3
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSKPyXQRjp
"Ya, I really should. Just came to check up on the progress with the song."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNhI64m9gJ
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡklwZ8BkQrq
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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh7oLoRRgoH
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNyPBpbkN2
"I'll escort you to the elevator," I said as I stood up from the couch.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAKAiZ6BPKB
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJPDpstQBc
"Ok," he said and he turned to address the others, "I'll see you guys later."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSltQNWH3VS
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdUZ4Mj47MO
"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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDT2hdSt1T
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGm1PHlfURf
G-Dragon made his way out of the lounge and I was right behind him.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4LLXvVYgMx
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGC6gcXkuHj
"Well, you seem upset," I said to him when we were in the hall.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNkygIQTwfh
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZfqnkgaRs
"No, I'm not," he said as he shrugged his shoulders.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVfx4SFycW
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNwePY4Y2SZ
I held his shoulder and he stopped walking, his back still facing me.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJeQGTTll7
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD5rAZhiyVW
"I know when you're upset," I said as I dropped my hand. "I think the others know too."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimC73zqzmr
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDcn36BEMRQ
He turned around to look at me. "I don't get you guys at all," he said.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKu5MG0fW82
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIrufhRmzqP
"What do you mean?" I folded my arms.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXGXcFzVSj
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0EnL3MezKO
"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."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9TVaVUjHk
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcRdTmsGTih
"We aren't perfect, you know? We have our emotions too, whether good or bad."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx4bFjeFfnE
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrmVEVXpaas
"But why hate on Johnny so much?"743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM21kZgENNa
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzYV1BcbVIo
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."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLWtCzeR4j
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSraDPIu4r
"Really?"743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGbHLhabhYB
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4mW8PHaKEp
"If we really did, we would have called him worse names than 'jerk' now, wouldn't we?"743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHzWadZSgm
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWzlAcRn3m3
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."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQWqEW6AlbZ
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzI2Q1Pt6yP
I sighed as I dropped my arms. "Some people aren't worth mingling around with, Jiyong."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWbeXBXUxXy
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Yics19Dla
"Is there something you aren't telling me?" He raised his eyebrow at me and took a step closer.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5lTmyRSL8
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNktZF1tA2
I shrugged my shoulders. "Kind of," I answered. "You're yet to know everything in due time."743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU14OPZXA1F
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNPWXmrOGx
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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiHkcjGh2uv
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQu8u8tTZZ
"Okay, I'll see you around, then," said G-Dragon as he managed to smile.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6zUTvL0nCy
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡREBWd5jeRd

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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGR1Hkw5dFN
743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsmMuLZBFU7
"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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1l2C7DdvB7

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.743Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6odbxaYJyI
