“It’s just a sprain that will heal in a day or two,” said the handsome, male Korean doctor who wore a causal blue golf shirt with white chinos and matching white canvas.

Before the doctor and Lee could turn around to leave the lounge, Daniel and I quickly left our spot at the entrance of the lounge and silently ran down the hall, and entered one of the rooms with the door slightly open to peak in the hall.

The five of us all started to talk at random, saying that we didn't know why she left and that we didn't do anything. A look of confusion soon over Collins and he soon raised his hand to indicate that we should all stop talking.294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgFx7QvqPux

In ten minutes, we were already downstairs in the cars arranged for us. The five of us Toxins, Lee and Collins were in one car while the security detail were in two other cars behind us.

294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlkcby7Gkt

294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYC0vHqqOH0
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoF3r2v0Sty
"I guess," I turned to look at Zoey who already had her head turned to look elsewhere. "Zoey is way more upset than we are, though."294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZIAREfUfSI
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnpKc92DICX
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1F4H7ZInR

Lisa pulled out her phone from her fancy blue purse and called G-Dragon. She even made sure to put the phone on loud speaker for everyone to hear.294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKXoVsN4wS
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PfkC4fpMm
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡORrtGCjrqe
His phone on the other end started to ring. We all waited in silence for what felt like a minute when Zoey said:294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9A7Do22bC
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVSl5ZiiEo
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4sPHiXJ4GR

294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtuQnDEEeZ
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3yEkxZlR92

294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSXoVEyJ7W
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEY3iHak5je

There came a knock at the door. We told the person to come in. It's Lee, and she came in with someone: Bang Yong-guk.294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHWtTVj4YIK
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQ8aphwTSZ
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRb3NrjFNZY
"Yong-guk, you're here!" Zoey exclaimed as she shot up from her seat and went straight for him.294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDaJaPJNtF
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8ouqQLQoO
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQsRlXW0iVx
"Hey, Zoey," Yong-guk nervously greeted her, stepping back a little so that he wouldn't bump into her.294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jyIl1G2O7
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXRr5Mw99V
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31RhW78VuS

294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡav6LlokBh9
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5adRGOXuw
"You should've seen her when we were talking about G-Dragon just now," said Seungyoon. "She looked like she would punch someone."294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXiB0AYcYGY
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡak1JJHtkep
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIn5UREBEyE

294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpgMEl12NdU

294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtPAvC3hz2e
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvcI09mU44I
I felt someone quickly rush up to me standing by my side. And in the process, pushing me a little. I held my ground so that I wouldn't find myself falling over.294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjhC67gQwgX
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWNOjbj5Xj
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPGCm6AsVj
"Hello," Seunghoon greeted Yong-guk in Korean. I raised an eyebrow as I realised that he had his arm around my neck. I didn't want to admit what I'm seeing, but it couldn't be helped. Was he trying to mark his territory when he didn't have one?294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp28R69dFhE
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSVA2rwG2V
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGSrcJS9GS
Yong-guk greeted him back and by the look on his face, he didn’t seem intimidated by Seunghoon at all.294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0bBFOduN5s
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXijdMPnxAJ
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaUY17qe2s2
Everyone else came over to greet Yong-guk. Lee told us to settle down for the managers and the music producer assigned to help with our album will be arriving any time soon. We did likewise. And members from both Blackpink and WINNER couldn’t help but ask Bang Yong-guk some questions about the song.294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZsBwyoBrKj
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWbrZazQDSW
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡudRJzAnd95

294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4CNNJtKvum
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNs3d5tCWjz
"I just want to ask how you were able to come up with your amazing songs," said Mino.294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpWY99FX63
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMrYE7lxeT
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GagsJnjak
"One at a time, people," I told them. I sat in between Yong-guk and Seunghoon, and boy did it feel uncomfortable.294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ZWz31EWvd
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaeptr2l9GE
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAyF3Mux4NQ

294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOy1Of4YJUf
"You don’t have to worry about him," said Seunghoon as he leaned in a little closer on my shoulder. "He can take care of himself."294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUP97ah0UB4
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJHEL63PxGH
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXndWbhEvH2
I rolled my eyes at him and he gave me that cute boyish smile. I couldn’t hold my laugh.294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNdUK7x94sO
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHObW0nesK6
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEAYMwBvpUD
"Do you've the track with you?" Lisa asked. "Maybe we can listen to it a little before the managers get here."294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMESubioHyV
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoDZNOYkVhR
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5GZUbJmAc
"Not when I’m around," said Lee who stood in the corner of the room. For a minute there we forgot that she is still around.294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0SpCEfTpBO
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomDvW5rNlE
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ423zCRwrKH

294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFMeWzSMLF
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2TjpZbJDt
"Well, I’ve been told to watch over you," said Lee. "You might do something funny like you were about to just now."294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDR5J7xwuJm
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1oFOX4il2V
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7U4QinaRx
"No we weren’t," said Zoey and Christine at the same time.294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2rVsgvOwT
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfYv2vH3Rl
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ncRuiAj4P
Lee gave them a look that made them stare at the floor. The managers better get here soon. I could tell just how anxious everyone is that they can’t wait to hear the song.294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyK3gHjGVFq
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72H4bayFjP
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBzAREzxXXT
"They will be here soon, so I don’t understand why you’re impatient," said Lee.294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyzmwePGind
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRvUtlIPv5
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsrMeN4bOf
"I agree," said Yong-guk. "Let’s all just wait."294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxU7Jde0afK
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxEZYG5RKgD
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lBag5pVsy
"They better be," said Jinwoo. "My ears are just itching to listen."294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ844HMztk06
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡedknAdxziB
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdTC4klWFe
We didn’t have to wait any further as there came a knock at the door and Lee told whoever was there to come in. The two managers and a man who I think is the producer, walked into the room. We all stood up and bowed our heads.294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLLSmC9yc1q
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNH736XZzp
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdAnrkJd46
"Sit down everyone," Yang Hyun-suk instructed and we did likewise. "I see everyone is here. I’m also happy to welcome our visitor, Bang Yong-guk."294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrGmYIcHwuv
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL3jmlLlf9M
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJSgQmWSj2i
Bang Yong-guk stood up from his seat and bowed to the managers and the producer. He also thanked them for inviting him to the studio. Yang Hyun-suk also introduced the man who stood beside Collins as the producer who will help out with the album.294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdR6Q9H68o4
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaEbrPuG3xe
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfp8a67bOY1
"Okay, without further ado, we can dive right to what we came here to do," said Yang Hyun-suk. He started to make his way to the console and the music booth.294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujoaezxpUm
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Bt4NPpCrs
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFcPOdTyWWK
When we stood up to follow the manager and the producer, I couldn’t help but stay still while the rest went on ahead. I didn’t even realise that Bang Yong-guk still stood beside me until he spoke.294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXCF07RQb2n
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7m78ughxqG
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7jlTzLVGX

294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg0u9sn6DEu
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPnMfuazkp
I turned to look at him, surprised that he’s beside me. "Kind of," I said. "What if its not-?"294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOzV5KsV7HU
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpyuEXx8dkv
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeX6RGPUQJP
He held my shoulders to turn me so I could look at him. I didn't expect him to be so close, and looking at him, straight on like this made me blush.294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxxVgKfWatP
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbvcbzA7IE9
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv2G4L0FGob
"Don't you trust me, Sam?" he asked.294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1lxNU9oZOd
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfi9yGwIIu
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPFGHydmc4
I didn’t expect him to ask such a question and I am left speechless. I cleared my throat to say:294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHO2ctEKeg5
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6BaaqhW8Lj
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3IxG1GlN9w
"Yes, I do."294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0aVsJSKzRD
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9QtCwSPz0v
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUyzRgNtFJI
He smiled at me and dropped his hands from my shoulders. He quickly held my hand.294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnlofvzV3I5
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK1rRuiNHH4
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxeERYhRQOn

294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLSfqRjGeg
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXr5gRktrQ2
His warm hand around mine assured me that I shouldn't worry about what’s going to happen with the song. Even if the managers weren't going to like it, it's going to be okay.294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjJAIfzEhg
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOpmAFavdA
294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxj1sBRGwq1
I found myself smiling at him. I couldn't have found any better way to calm my thoughts.
