My body ached all over 860Please respect copyright.PENANAgtrY9eKBFt
when I finally woke up. My eyes slowly opened and a flash of light above860Please respect copyright.PENANAkb2k7HL400
me was blinding that I had to shield my eyes with my hand. When my eyes860Please respect copyright.PENANAbYagtq8IYs
adjusted to the light, I sat up and I could tell I hadn't slept on my 860Please respect copyright.PENANAJhY1CyEw1c
bed.860Please respect copyright.PENANA5hYjTj96Ud
I scratched my head as I860Please respect copyright.PENANAarzWvl4JzI
slowly took in my surrounding. I had slept in the lounge on the floor. I860Please respect copyright.PENANAAIi3RNHgcf
closed my eyes and murmured to myself. Collins was going to kill me if 860Please respect copyright.PENANAoGATlyodSa
he found me here.860Please respect copyright.PENANAAS7oKMwrOA
I slowly stood up and I 860Please respect copyright.PENANA1aPdB2xgot
realised that I had been covered with a blanket when it dropped to the 860Please respect copyright.PENANAEN4FUxqHUp
floor. Lee must have found me sleeping and covered me with it. So 860Please respect copyright.PENANATS9WHSOPOF
thoughtful of her. And the guitar laid on the couch.860Please respect copyright.PENANAPDba1v4jm8
"Morning, sleepy head," came Collins' voice behind me.860Please respect copyright.PENANATMI4awjw9a
I almost jumped in 860Please respect copyright.PENANAuwj9eAccEg
fright when I turned around. I found Collins sitting at the dining 860Please respect copyright.PENANABZUfrKEAwq
table, drinking a hot cup of coffee and looking at his tablet. He was 860Please respect copyright.PENANA4JRWpzipk0
obviously reading the news online.860Please respect copyright.PENANABecZO8I8ok
"Hey, Collins," I replied as I walked over to him.860Please respect copyright.PENANAQfZg3bdeX1
"What did we say about working on the song the whole night?" Collins asked, still looking at his tablet.860Please respect copyright.PENANAPzdsFSjiJL
"'Don't tire yourself 860Please respect copyright.PENANAF485S4laL0
out and just go to sleep,'" I said, remembering what Collins had told me860Please respect copyright.PENANAT49515KNMC
last night since I refused to go to sleep when I arrived.860Please respect copyright.PENANA241pS4n6ql
"And you didn't listen to me and you kept on playing your guitar the whole night. Your song sounds incredible, by the way."860Please respect copyright.PENANAlL3cPHRFYc
"Oh, you were listening?"860Please respect copyright.PENANAfhuQTA3siY
"Ya, you kept on playing860Please respect copyright.PENANAW5cYjxcrXw
until I couldn't hear you play anymore. I came to check up on you and 860Please respect copyright.PENANATdZJ94Bnij
you were hugging the guitar like a teddy bear."860Please respect copyright.PENANAHu7v0i0LL8
"Thanks, Collins." I smiled at him.860Please respect copyright.PENANACe0okcOTJZ
"For what?" Collins asked as he looked at me.860Please respect copyright.PENANAzcEXWtAjNN
"For covering me with a blanket."860Please respect copyright.PENANAem8eumj6Gf
Collins looked at me 860Please respect copyright.PENANA7Vl5gqYTEQ
with his eyebrow raised and smiled. "Go take a shower. We need to leave 860Please respect copyright.PENANA6zxCTaQOFF
for YG. Yang Hyun-suk also needs to hear the song."860Please respect copyright.PENANA4LAX50f9SC
"Okay." I smiled as I nodded.860Please respect copyright.PENANAj9VSjY8I7P
"Morning, people," said Lee as she came into the lounge. "It feels really weird these guys aren't here. The place is so quiet."860Please respect copyright.PENANATI3UEbLXu7
"I know," I said. "I really miss them."860Please respect copyright.PENANAbnwlqVDhDO
"Me too."860Please respect copyright.PENANAqajJyNAOgv
"I don't," said Collins as he sipped some of his coffee.860Please respect copyright.PENANAlZ4BRyZY1q
Lee and I threw Collins angry glances. Collins chuckled to himself.860Please respect copyright.PENANAqqkrxgvzK2
"Going to take a shower," I said.860Please respect copyright.PENANAvT3lF4OxuF
"You go do that," said Lee. "I'll order us some breakfast."860Please respect copyright.PENANAo6i6j6TmzF
After I freshened myself860Please respect copyright.PENANA4IpQHAjYHB
up, I went back to the lounge. I still found Lee and Collins by the 860Please respect copyright.PENANASQzEt7vSXR
dining table. Lee was having her usual toast and eggs for breakfast, and860Please respect copyright.PENANAGsBRsy6O44
Collins was still on his tablet.860Please respect copyright.PENANAvCWxm7Cb8K
"Are you going to keep on reading the news the whole morning?" I asked as I took a seat at the table.860Please respect copyright.PENANAo85Rhrhtmk
"Nope. Just looking at 860Please respect copyright.PENANATBkSONHviJ
messages," Collins replied. "Zoey sent me one. She said she will be 860Please respect copyright.PENANA6BJzY8pK2O
coming back late at night with the others."860Please respect copyright.PENANAM9yNwKTnCs
"Are they having a good time?" I got a slice of bread that laid on the middle of the table and was applying marmalade on it.860Please respect copyright.PENANAZnlzlehAIn
"You know Zoey. She doesn't take any opportunity for granted when she is in some glamorous place."860Please respect copyright.PENANAe9A0kHGEiI
"True." I shrugged as I got another slice of bread.860Please respect copyright.PENANA3SJGy1WII7
"She even sent Collins a picture," said Lee. She turned to face Collins as she jerked her head. "Show her."860Please respect copyright.PENANAKGAxMcNLYO
Collins handed his 860Please respect copyright.PENANAyVlWJadf9h
tablet over to me and I took it. Zoey took a selfie of herself with the 860Please respect copyright.PENANAjHcKKwKB8t
other Toxins, G-Dragon and TOP behind her. They were all cheering and 860Please respect copyright.PENANABSxo5F7uNn
raising their hands up in the air. I smiled. Looks like they were really860Please respect copyright.PENANAbBlZBiUkNn
having a great time.860Please respect copyright.PENANAA1IWmunEkl
"Is it me or is that the Eiffle Tower behind them?" I asked.860Please respect copyright.PENANAL9NNjGsdbN
"It sure is," said Lee, raising a cup of coffee to her lips.860Please respect copyright.PENANA9QBLN7nhn3
I mumbled. I had always wanted to go to Paris and see the Eiffle Tower. These guys were so lucky. Boo hoo for me.860Please respect copyright.PENANAHo3bHl1vfe
"They should have as 860Please respect copyright.PENANA14suaH36E7
much fun as they could possibly can," said Collins as I gave him back 860Please respect copyright.PENANAFYfoAklCid
the tablet. "They are in for a lovely treat."860Please respect copyright.PENANABMhHEXjWvX
"What? Is it about the song?" I looked at Collins.860Please respect copyright.PENANAl4e0OtAcDQ
"No, it's not about the 860Please respect copyright.PENANAlXPckvAawO
song. They already know they have a lot of work to do with the song when860Please respect copyright.PENANAzZU6VoRJk5
they get back. I'm talking about something else."860Please respect copyright.PENANAuEbsQSnwlg
I looked at Lee who sat 860Please respect copyright.PENANAHn6UK2nJ3V
opposite me. I gave her a look that told her to tell me what Collins 860Please respect copyright.PENANAaVVjxxywmb
meant. But she looked at me with a worried expression. That meant she 860Please respect copyright.PENANAXSro2urJos
didn't have the slightest clue of what Collins was talking about.860Please respect copyright.PENANAeL89zIRwKf
"What are you talking about Collins?" I asked as I poured myself a cup of coffee.860Please respect copyright.PENANAwiR3gL45dC
"Oh, you will see," said Collins with a huge grin on his face.860Please respect copyright.PENANAKqNDMpQ1OE
I almost shuddered when Collins smiled. I'd never liked that smile. That only meant Collins had something up his sleeve.860Please respect copyright.PENANAtHjfzNJ8qq
"You can tell us, Collins. I won't tell the others."860Please respect copyright.PENANAf46NhKEsPg
"If I tell you, I'll 860Please respect copyright.PENANAggsK0Jogsv
just ruin everything. Just sit back and wait for things to happen. 860Please respect copyright.PENANAievodka8pK
Finish your breakfast. We will be out of this place in a few minutes."860Please respect copyright.PENANA0jUdZVFhPJ
Collins got up from his 860Please respect copyright.PENANATEeL8TYr9y
chair and walked away with a satisfied look on his face. How I wish I 860Please respect copyright.PENANALqhm6WYhLO
knew what he was thinking. Whatever he planned for us seemed rather 860Please respect copyright.PENANAaCFeqfBNc6
amusing to him and might turn out bad for some of us.860Please respect copyright.PENANAeQmHdvvn4d
"What do you know?" I 860Please respect copyright.PENANAszYY0so1T5
asked Lee, immediately I knew that Collins was in his room. I leaned 860Please respect copyright.PENANAocbaT2kss0
forward to look at her straight in the eye. I seemed more like a 860Please respect copyright.PENANAAFfyeZslZ8
detective asking questions to a criminal.860Please respect copyright.PENANAqVS4B5y4ns
"I don't know," Lee 860Please respect copyright.PENANARkq47sPFYv
replied with a shocked look on her face. "I am as surprised as you are. 860Please respect copyright.PENANAvAX7qk3UWH
And besides, I wasn't with Collins the whole day of yesterday."860Please respect copyright.PENANAUbCPwsbNyi
I knew something was up 860Please respect copyright.PENANAgjuHWt3bFQ
when Collins wasn't around yesterday. I wondered what he and Yang 860Please respect copyright.PENANAt7beMwXTn9
Hyun-suk had planned this time. Collins had a happy look on his face.860Please respect copyright.PENANAxmeOvmlW3c
"This is not good," I said as I leaned back on my seat.860Please respect copyright.PENANAUiuX839usP
"I don't think it's that bad," said Lee. "Whatever they have planned, will be okay. Even for you."860Please respect copyright.PENANAB00Qed28oZ
"Well, hopefully." I blew out a puff of air and shook my head as I thought of what happened to G-Dragon and I yesterday.860Please respect copyright.PENANAcGfeUVICBT
"Hey, what's wrong?"860Please respect copyright.PENANA4HKloG7iw3
"I think G-Dragon and I aren't on good terms again."860Please respect copyright.PENANA26R00EcGyV
"What? What happened?" Lee looked shocked and then again, confused.860Please respect copyright.PENANAIZLgpYPemg
"Things were going so well before things went down the drain when Zoey and TOP came to YG yesterday."860Please respect copyright.PENANAgvQprCeLxN
Lee leaned her head backwards and let out a huge murmuring sound. "Don't tell me Zoey ruined everything."860Please respect copyright.PENANAmXW7NL0FU7
"Well, kind of," I said 860Please respect copyright.PENANASayVvQYA6C
as I thought of what happened and who to blame. "It's complicated. And 860Please respect copyright.PENANA1NZyoZ2VdH
to be honest, I don't who to blame. But it wasn't entirely their fault."860Please respect copyright.PENANAu1QK9H1O2S
"Eat up. You will need all the energy to sing that song. We'll talk about this later."860Please respect copyright.PENANApoPXukkm7X
"Okay."860Please respect copyright.PENANAkNuf462PlJ
I was just done eating my breakfast when Collins came to tell us that it was time to go. I carried the guitar and my notebook.860Please respect copyright.PENANAfAuw9zVxPp
Lee, Collins and I soon 860Please respect copyright.PENANArkx4Hshpez
left the hotel and we were at YG. To be honest, I felt kind of nervous. I860Please respect copyright.PENANAuJNgBWne3G
was going to perform the song in front of Collins and Yang Hyun-suk but860Please respect copyright.PENANAQ7GGFGNkkM
it felt like I was going on the X Factor auditions just to be judged 860Please respect copyright.PENANAtS8sKr0Fpg
afterwards. Collins did say the song sounded amazing. I just wondered 860Please respect copyright.PENANAOvrmcvotC9
what Yang Hyun-suk would say.860Please respect copyright.PENANA0jfY4hTQ3A
I was waiting in th 860Please respect copyright.PENANAQV0Mx22xQs
recording studio, waiting for Collins and Yang Hyun-suk. I kept telling 860Please respect copyright.PENANAWId3KmC584
myself that everything was going to be alright and I shouldn't worry 860Please respect copyright.PENANA7h5ybqzjw9
because I had gone through all of this several times. But today, I was 860Please respect copyright.PENANAC8pnpN3WLT
edgy and my heart was beating so fast.860Please respect copyright.PENANAkp9HfAc8lB
I was pacing up and down860Please respect copyright.PENANA8VmPVhzgYS
with agitation written all over my face when the door to the studio 860Please respect copyright.PENANAsoksxyfp2o
opened. I turned to the door and Lee came in with Taeyang and his 860Please respect copyright.PENANAIqXDlx1xOB
girlfriend, Hyo-rin. Well, this is a surprise. I never thought I would 860Please respect copyright.PENANAEvaqYSAUY4
ever meet Hyo-rin again. Well, not today when I'm about to sing a song 860Please respect copyright.PENANA2pFG5px472
and I was so nervous.860Please respect copyright.PENANAi9P5tyixA6
"Here she is," said Lee,860Please respect copyright.PENANAub8CyJzBaj
turning to face Taeyang and Hyo-rin. "I've tried to calm her down but 860Please respect copyright.PENANA7zQYLbp1TZ
she can't stop pacing up and down like an ant. Maybe she will listen to 860Please respect copyright.PENANAwKgHVjzksw
you, Tae."860Please respect copyright.PENANAudlDA8IfB3
I frowned at Lee and I 860Please respect copyright.PENANAcYEaYDNRFY
wanted to snap at her but I brushed it off. She hadn't even made an 860Please respect copyright.PENANADsjl2yKsJe
effort to try and calm me down. She had left me all alone. What a 860Please respect copyright.PENANASK9b788EeH
friend.860Please respect copyright.PENANAS8y5bFUZh6
"Hi, Tae," I said and walked over to Hyo-rin and gave her a hug.860Please respect copyright.PENANAskXAi2Rxqp
"I never thought I would see you again," I said to Hyo-rin with a smile after I hugged her.860Please respect copyright.PENANAuXhxaIwVOg
"I told Taeyang that I 860Please respect copyright.PENANAlBZOxPcI7z
wanted to see you," said Hyo-rin. "Looks like I decided to come and see 860Please respect copyright.PENANAlJ1fkx8Yx9
you at the right time when you're about to sing the song."860Please respect copyright.PENANAfrh3PWOvFL
"Our manager called me 860Please respect copyright.PENANAPBJoxWQPcJ
to come to the studio and listen to the song," said Taeyang, answering 860Please respect copyright.PENANAP6LES1Masm
the puzzled look on my face. "Hyo-rin came to see me and heard my 860Please respect copyright.PENANAO4Jl0kpBH3
conversation on the phone. That's why she wanted to come and see you."860Please respect copyright.PENANAhnhvlErmRk
"Thanks," I said. "Maybe with you guys around I might just calm down a little bit."860Please respect copyright.PENANAyUffrAkfdR
"I'll go and check on the managers and see what's taking them so long," said Lee as she started to head out of the room.860Please respect copyright.PENANADO3wg2fl5W
I wanted to call out to her and tell her to let it be. I didn't want our managers here just yet. But she had already left.860Please respect copyright.PENANAz2B0KZAVBJ
"So, where are the others?" Hyo-rin asked as she took a seat on the comfortable leather couch and Taeyang followed.860Please respect copyright.PENANAHQLMwJryV7
"They left for Paris," I answered. I was still standing with my arms folded.860Please respect copyright.PENANAUOYvMk11IJ
"Oh, they left with GD," said Taeyang. "He told me last night."860Please respect copyright.PENANA7ZLfXvHlME
"Ya, these guys are having a ton of fun right now," I said as I looked at my fingers.860Please respect copyright.PENANAFJsFED7dOf
"But how come you didn't go with them?" Hyo-rin asked.860Please respect copyright.PENANAHoaej3jGX9
"I had the song to finish up. Trust me, it wasn't easy. But I had help before they could leave for Paris."860Please respect copyright.PENANAwdmB3Moupv
"Looks like you're always the one stuck here working hard while the others go out and have fun."860Please respect copyright.PENANAhCK6gvnPyt
"Ya. Looks like it." I smiled slightly.860Please respect copyright.PENANAkuhmxHDmZ5
"You managed to finish the song?" Taeyang asked.860Please respect copyright.PENANA55NwnyIV2y
"I did. Want to take a look at the lyrics?"860Please respect copyright.PENANA5CKwgQC18q
"Sure."860Please respect copyright.PENANAU9omnPAC8t
I gave Taeyang my 860Please respect copyright.PENANAkJLQI9XKnC
notebook and with Hyo-rin beside him, they looked at the lyrics 860Please respect copyright.PENANA2JbYyuXAAS
together. I couldn't help but smile at the two of them. They looked so 860Please respect copyright.PENANAoQ8lGF8QcC
cute together.860Please respect copyright.PENANAg1vzB2xOQn
"I can't wait for you to sing the song for us," said Hyo-rin as she looked at me. "The lyrics sound really good."860Please respect copyright.PENANA6Z9HH4fpb0
"Thanks. I was singing 860Please respect copyright.PENANAsrvpv5FDBT
the song while playing the guitar the whole night. I had to make it work860Please respect copyright.PENANAc7FYyHbkWl
on the second verse and since the song is mixed with English and 860Please respect copyright.PENANACf99IGnP34
Korean, I just had to make it perfect."860Please respect copyright.PENANA3PeOs8Xz6V
"You can read Korean?" Hyo-rin asked.860Please respect copyright.PENANAfXkGTgbyHJ
"Well...not really," I 860Please respect copyright.PENANAUfD920eDCk
said shrugging my shoulders. "I had to learn the Korean alphabet and the860Please respect copyright.PENANA5qvXYJa540
vowels. And with GD and TOP's help yesterday, I was fine with it."860Please respect copyright.PENANAv5iZFsB7gs
"Wow. Pretty smart," said Hyo-rin with a smile on her face.860Please respect copyright.PENANA4fo9ZPl7Qq
"Sam is totally smart," said Taeyang. "And this song is going to be a huge hit."860Please respect copyright.PENANAlenphwUrL9
I couldn't help but smile at their sweet compliments. That made me forget about my fear. For now.860Please respect copyright.PENANAa8zlT1pS6Z
The door suddenly flew open and Seungri and Daesung came in. Seungri rushed to hug me when he first saw me.860Please respect copyright.PENANAjX7AVMPZtK
"Hey, I missed you so much," said Seungri.860Please respect copyright.PENANAvWJZUoGWeA
"Ya, me too," I said as I tried to breathe. Seungri always hugged me so tight.860Please respect copyright.PENANAFLsPKA5Svr
"Hey, Sam," said Daesung as he came over to hug me.860Please respect copyright.PENANAxpgXU0stUW
"Hi," I blushed when we hugged and I smiled like a fool.860Please respect copyright.PENANAv0jjsz0KGb
"So, when do we hear the song?" Seungri asked, looking so excited.860Please respect copyright.PENANAUj8mlEQDtd
Before I could reply, a voice came at the door. Yang Hyun-suk's voice.860Please respect copyright.PENANAYp6RLkEUQ8
"Right now."860Please respect copyright.PENANAyEPJQEhmUx
We all turned towards 860Please respect copyright.PENANAUJCiwfxXkn
the door. Yang Hyun-suk, Collins, Lee and one of YG's music producers 860Please respect copyright.PENANA6FGIlpopPs
came in. This was it. I couldn't help but feel my palms get so sweaty.860Please respect copyright.PENANAistYU14eFY
When everyone got 860Please respect copyright.PENANAw4OxRzeDVH
settled onto the couch, I sat facing them sitting on a long stool and 860Please respect copyright.PENANAhBsQPY5cth
holding the guitar. I looked on at the others and all I wanted was to 860Please respect copyright.PENANAxLaW4t4GrE
run out of the room.860Please respect copyright.PENANAMwZAPQxo1P
"We're ready when you're," said Yang Hyun-suk.860Please respect copyright.PENANAZAf2Y2YNhf
I nodded my head and my 860Please respect copyright.PENANAEwnk9CsP6w
heart couldn't stop beating so hard. I tried to settle properly with the860Please respect copyright.PENANAU1iBhdRu19
guitar on my lap, but it felt so heavy like it was the first time when I860Please respect copyright.PENANATitUIQ2t8J
ever got to play it.860Please respect copyright.PENANAHLFR0uvFnX
I felt a break of sweat 860Please respect copyright.PENANAVlAr05eRrz
would start to appear on my forehead. I blew out a puff of air and 860Please respect copyright.PENANActW3skFzJ4
stared at the audience. Daesung gave me an encouraging smile and I 860Please respect copyright.PENANAKpXdjb9Lx0
slightly smiled back. I relaxed myself for a bit and closed my eyes as I860Please respect copyright.PENANAOWn8Pw9VbM
strung the strings on the guitar.860Please respect copyright.PENANApSkFARTLKH
I started to sing as I 860Please respect copyright.PENANAVIv35PsKuh
played the instrument. My fear soon left me as I sang. It was going well860Please respect copyright.PENANAwgqIKlfWh3
so far. Then I came to the second verse where most of the lyrics were 860Please respect copyright.PENANAVXOtMAqHd6
in Korean. I thought I would stumble and say something wrong but I 860Please respect copyright.PENANAEjDtPjMflQ
didn't. Well, I hope so.860Please respect copyright.PENANAFlBlOXNblB
As soon as I was done 860Please respect copyright.PENANA1svkczDcUc
singing the whole song, I looked up at everyone. I had been trying to 860Please respect copyright.PENANAcH4vTAOn3i
avoid their gaze the whole time so that I wouldn't really mess up with 860Please respect copyright.PENANAwDtn2H0lm7
the song. I did get a few glances of their faces here and there, but I 860Please respect copyright.PENANAnkK1f4wtsX
was staring above their heads the whole time and closing my eyes. I just860Please respect copyright.PENANAF7rzFlHJk1
hoped they liked it.860Please respect copyright.PENANAFIwcjUJ1tG
The studio was still 860Please respect copyright.PENANAsmV7iiKsiF
quiet. No one had said a word and I got scared. Wasn't it good enough? 860Please respect copyright.PENANA9mzIeX5p1s
Why weren't they saying anything? I looked on at Yang Hyun-suk and he 860Please respect copyright.PENANAD7ibI3VXxi
had a grim look on his face. Oh, no.860Please respect copyright.PENANA89NGEK6NrG
Yang Hyun-suk cleared 860Please respect copyright.PENANAcZjnmZTFrZ
his throat. I knew he was going to speak first. Yikes! Not him. I would 860Please respect copyright.PENANAaK9i2rRjvF
rather he said what he wanted to say last. I crossed my fingers.860Please respect copyright.PENANAkcRoBRJOtU
"Well, Sam," started Yang Hyun-suk. "The song is really....."860Please respect copyright.PENANAD8WQLaDhKV
This was it. The hammer 860Please respect copyright.PENANAPC65SLE4NF
blow to my career. I wanted to close my eyes as I waited for any hurtful860Please respect copyright.PENANALBYpeZxozF
word ready to come out of his mouth. I knew it was going to sting.860Please respect copyright.PENANACzSmdTlB6r
"....incredible."860Please respect copyright.PENANAjc9CLPREwx
I opened my eyes and I 860Please respect copyright.PENANAo6KlJ39ocz
couldn't believe that word just came out of his mouth. I looked up at 860Please respect copyright.PENANAPNIDez0sJ7
him and he started to clap his hands. The others followed. There was a 860Please respect copyright.PENANAj0OFv1aIWu
round of applause in the room and I couldn't help but smile to myself. 860Please respect copyright.PENANAXZtMoyObVs
It was such a relief. I could finally breathe.860Please respect copyright.PENANAR9NyQb6bSB
"I've to admit, when 860Please respect copyright.PENANAPLrqhlClYm
Collins told me that the song was good, I didn't believe him," said Yang860Please respect copyright.PENANAsHzL4yaxK2
Hyun-suk, as he stood up from the couch. "It's just incredible."860Please respect copyright.PENANASa2cLJHBr3
"Thank you," I said as I bowed my head.860Please respect copyright.PENANA9Emhl7jaD2
"You better start working on it," said Yang Hyun-suk. "Today."860Please respect copyright.PENANAYinyZv9ZJP
"We sure will," said Taeyang as he came up to me. "That was mind blowing, Sam."860Please respect copyright.PENANAWIW2UCEOxJ
"Thanks," I said as I jumped off the stool. "I hope my Korean was okay."860Please respect copyright.PENANAOlaBdcM44s
"Are you kidding me? You sounded amazing," said Seungri.860Please respect copyright.PENANA7pne5xJhxn
"I agree," said Hyo-rin. "You sung in Korean like you've known that language your whole life."860Please respect copyright.PENANAT65PTWWHcq
I couldn't stop smiling 860Please respect copyright.PENANAZQrGvq1OXU
at the others. I kept on receiving praises from the others including 860Please respect copyright.PENANA8FZ54htN21
Daesung who said that I had such a beautiful golden voice. I blushed and860Please respect copyright.PENANAHTzYA6ml9b
told him that wasn't true. To me, there was a big difference between a 860Please respect copyright.PENANANFMuln9DoZ
good voice and a golden one.860Please respect copyright.PENANAjWctgy9hdn
Immediately our managers860Please respect copyright.PENANAaaSmKItJaV
left with Lee, we went over to join the music producer by the audio 860Please respect copyright.PENANA5PYqGx4N2v
engines and the multi track console. Above the console was a huge window860Please respect copyright.PENANAGSyROFrdt4
that showed the live room where we the artists sing and play any 860Please respect copyright.PENANAPENaAZgQ86
musical instruments.860Please respect copyright.PENANAuFiWMts8Km
This was always the hard860Please respect copyright.PENANA1Z9CLVxooU
part of producing a track. Making the melodies and to find the right 860Please respect copyright.PENANAyIgeThZWqd
tune for the song. I still had the tune of the song stuck in my head. 860Please respect copyright.PENANA9kn9nEPULZ
But it was going to be difficult to make it sound right now that we had 860Please respect copyright.PENANAM0VS45kZ9e
to use auto tunes and electric beats.860Please respect copyright.PENANAu3CY3bcRf7
An hour had passed and I860Please respect copyright.PENANAKpmxUoxEH4
was already feeling so tired. Making the soundtrack was so hard. And 860Please respect copyright.PENANADUhv6HNuBm
this time, I got so tired so quickly. Must be that I really didn't have 860Please respect copyright.PENANAyH6wMOwmNa
enough sleep last night. I was having a whole lot of fun with Daesung, 860Please respect copyright.PENANAHueADAMmos
Seungri and Taeyang around. I admired Hyo-rin who sat leisurely on the 860Please respect copyright.PENANAc73rtgqORI
couch and would come up and join us whenever she felt like it.860Please respect copyright.PENANAuxR8N22qFr
"It's been an hour and I860Please respect copyright.PENANAhI3g13GX6o
already feel so tired," I mumbled as I leaned by head backward as I sat860Please respect copyright.PENANAsc0O7O0wOa
on a chair next to the music producer. "This is so hard."860Please respect copyright.PENANA98TkzTuulw
"Mind if I give you a massage?" Seungri asked as he came to stand behind me.860Please respect copyright.PENANAlovDx05LtF
"No. I wonder what's wrong with you sometimes," I said as I rubbed my neck. "I don't need a massage."860Please respect copyright.PENANAtJedQTWvC8
"Trust me, you're so 860Please respect copyright.PENANAza5Z733QVE
tense," said Seungri as he laid his hands gently on my shoulders. 860Please respect copyright.PENANA9HrCRjBv2y
"You've been working too hard. You definitely need a massage."860Please respect copyright.PENANAwruxxywP33
"No, Seungri." I tried to brush Seungri's hands away but he didn't budge.860Please respect copyright.PENANA0M7OzrnhMB
"Come on, Sam," said Hyo-rin, looking up from her phone. "Just let him massage you. The maknae always gets what he wants."860Please respect copyright.PENANAfZuqeNcOnP
"Oh, please." I rolled my eyes. "I never let Daniel do whatever he wants. Why should I let Seungri?"860Please respect copyright.PENANA2jqGZUAbQp
"Sam's right. And besides, Seungri can't give a proper massage," said Daesung.860Please respect copyright.PENANAHGzX6j22Zx
"Yes, I do!" Seungri snapped at Daesung.860Please respect copyright.PENANA61GN1i1BtN
"No you don't!" Daesung snapped back.860Please respect copyright.PENANAYnxUelV0Ok
"I'm not going to talk about it," said Seungri as he started to relax my muscles on my shoulders.860Please respect copyright.PENANAgioTkdCQNw
"Mmmm." I murmured in 860Please respect copyright.PENANApvjcqEpAvR
pleasure as I smiled and closed my eyes. I could feel my body relax. 860Please respect copyright.PENANA5Wy63Qziib
"You're really good, Seungri. I might just hire you as my personal 860Please respect copyright.PENANARS9YTr7Fjd
masseur."860Please respect copyright.PENANAiKAOTijSoh
"Thank you. I would definitely be your personal masseur."860Please respect copyright.PENANAreFIsfFuAD
I heard Daesung mutter to himself and I smiled. Looks like someone was jealous.860Please respect copyright.PENANAXDfxvPSmEk
The music producer soon 860Please respect copyright.PENANAkBcM2XANtM
decided to take a break and he left. We made the studio more like our 860Please respect copyright.PENANAnLvTfMjyov
own crib. We sat by the couch chatting and laughing. I was even playing 860Please respect copyright.PENANAVMOCjgnjOR
with the guitar and we were singing some random songs together. It was 860Please respect copyright.PENANA9P1QMPrwPK
so much fun. Lee came in with our lunch and afterwards we were back to 860Please respect copyright.PENANA8UP9sUibaI
recording the track.860Please respect copyright.PENANAB4FQEQq2bc
We spent another two hours recording, when Collins came into the room.860Please respect copyright.PENANAClTW3Zzb9v
"Hey, Collins," I said as I turned to look at him, removing the headphones from my ears.860Please respect copyright.PENANAckR403pbfv
"I want you guys to do me a favour," said Collins.860Please respect copyright.PENANAdFQgqAZwAk
"What is it?" Taeyang asked as he also turned around to look at Collins.860Please respect copyright.PENANA6QkR7VhsYF
"Zoey and the others will be coming later on in the evening, so I want you guys to go and pick them up."860Please respect copyright.PENANAoBXXO1QVzf
I raised my eyebrow at Collins. "Why don't you do it? I mean, it's never a big deal for you, right?"860Please respect copyright.PENANA698NdPGt4F
"I'm busy, Sam. So I was860Please respect copyright.PENANA1IYX3ypcd5
thinking that you guys should do it. It will be good for you guys to 860Please respect copyright.PENANA1hDN1jV45z
catch up with all that's happened in Paris."860Please respect copyright.PENANAjsXIwbvCx3
"Let me guess, you're 860Please respect copyright.PENANAlBjd3YhDMg
avoiding all the talking and yapping from Zoey." Daesung and Seungri 860Please respect copyright.PENANAhqEoplDZM5
were snickering and I couldn't help but smile.860Please respect copyright.PENANAp8npB8S3vw
"You know me so well." Collins smirked. "But also it's because I have some important work to do."860Please respect copyright.PENANA39q30Dt6S3
Something told me his 860Please respect copyright.PENANAk4ANDyg63n
important work had something to do with what he talked about this 860Please respect copyright.PENANAsBmETduEli
morning. I dared not try to ask because he would brush me off like he 860Please respect copyright.PENANAJXCiL0Lg2f
always does.860Please respect copyright.PENANAqgBPQIWiXX
"Don't worry about it," said Daesung. "We will go and pick them up."860Please respect copyright.PENANAUcLLzAF9gR
"Thanks, guys," said Collins and he left the room.860Please respect copyright.PENANASetM4rxzCE
It was late in the 860Please respect copyright.PENANAKtLCXuqCHN
afternoon and I was as tired as hell. I was leaning my head on the 860Please respect copyright.PENANAPUVflv9LPO
console, careful not to mess around with the buttons and all. I had my 860Please respect copyright.PENANAlqCRtQlbYa
eyes closed and I could slowly feel myself drifting away to sleep. 860Please respect copyright.PENANA2DfcVLioEK
Taeyang pulled up the headphones from my ears and that made me sit up.860Please respect copyright.PENANAa2rTYbLjNg
"What did I miss?" I asked, sounding drowsy and rubbing my eyes, when I knew nothing much had happened.860Please respect copyright.PENANA9WU4UDC6Lm
"Nothing. You just dosed off for a few seconds," said Taeyang.860Please respect copyright.PENANAapT0lxFs9k
I looked beside him and I860Please respect copyright.PENANAyEKEWBP67E
realised Daesung and Seungri weren't on their seats. I looked behind 860Please respect copyright.PENANAdBcbRpl0dO
and I saw them on the couch with Hyo-rin looking a little tired. The 860Please respect copyright.PENANA3EBesTdkuc
music producer had already left the room and I had taken the liberty of 860Please respect copyright.PENANA4lb5sOkxod
leaning my head on the console.860Please respect copyright.PENANAiCApQpnSOC
"I always hate this part860Please respect copyright.PENANA4t359PH9NB
of making a music track. As much as I love producing music, it gets me 860Please respect copyright.PENANANgVaIRPIoo
so worked up and tired," I said as I leaned my head back onto the 860Please respect copyright.PENANAuJygtAiI1A
console.860Please respect copyright.PENANAg244ULd35R
"Ya, I understand you," said Taeyang. "I wonder what time these guys will get back."860Please respect copyright.PENANAIvnHR831el
"Didn't Collins say at night?" I asked through a muffled tone.860Please respect copyright.PENANAT0Mwc3VA7x
"I wonder what time."860Please respect copyright.PENANADGyR04S16f
"Wait." I pushed my head860Please respect copyright.PENANA8z7AuR7xfv
upwards and felt like my head was spinning out of control. I was still 860Please respect copyright.PENANARMIn9zLjtT
feeling sleepy and I had to hold my head for a while as though I was 860Please respect copyright.PENANAoiecniy5oR
drunk and the world around me was spinning.860Please respect copyright.PENANA09EA1PsfEX
"Whoa! Are you okay, Sam?" Hyo-rin asked as she came over.860Please respect copyright.PENANAaaeOJKFO13
"Ya, I'm fine. Just tired." I pulled out my phone out of my pocket and decided to call Collins.860Please respect copyright.PENANAhIrT3FfeKg
"You know, if you're tired you shouldn't come with us to the airport," said Daesung. "You look really tired."860Please respect copyright.PENANAcGOzYAwXjU
"I didn't sleep well 860Please respect copyright.PENANAQBWs4Xy5Dw
last night," I said as I rubbed my eyes. The phone screen was all 860Please respect copyright.PENANANJIwQpGefM
blurring. "I stayed up all night and slept on the floor."860Please respect copyright.PENANAinp0ruPypd
"Ya, you better not come with us, my little panda," said Seungri. "You need a whole lot of rest."860Please respect copyright.PENANA9dMHzOc5DY
"You're right." I soon 860Please respect copyright.PENANABuG3ys4brz
dialled Collins number and asked him what time the plane would actually 860Please respect copyright.PENANApCwTSbVZ5h
arrive and that I wouldn't be able to go.860Please respect copyright.PENANAJKromFlldt
"He said they might come at nine in the evening," I said when I cut the call. I was so sleepy I felt like I couldn't stand up.860Please respect copyright.PENANAh4JUkMqeAK
"Well, since we are all done here, you can go back to the hotel and rest," said Taeyang. "We will take you."860Please respect copyright.PENANAIt6mblk32m
"Alright. Thanks."860Please respect copyright.PENANAaiKm2PwgwJ
"I'm coming too," said Daesung.860Please respect copyright.PENANAr6v7zgrJt7
"And so will I," said Seungri.860Please respect copyright.PENANAdgZXxAxiIf
"Guys, it's fine. Taeyang and Hyo-rin will take me," I said with a small smile on my face as I faced Seungri and Daesung.860Please respect copyright.PENANAE73bruKAro
Immediately I left the 860Please respect copyright.PENANAUaL8CTC5QO
studio with Taeyang and Hyo-rin, Hyo-rin couldn't help but say, "was it 860Please respect copyright.PENANA8UCRI8k2P7
just me or Daesung and Seungri were fighting over you?"860Please respect copyright.PENANAoeFzOFglOD
"Pfft! Fighting over me? How?" I asked trying my best not to smile through my tired face.860Please respect copyright.PENANAdE7LkTzCzM
"Well, the time Seungri was massaging you, Daesung was totally jealous," Hyo-rin said. "What do you think, Tae?"860Please respect copyright.PENANAqZEXMuhIap
"Well, I think they were just playing around," said Taeyang as we entered the elevator.860Please respect copyright.PENANAcIXIQLRFyO
Phew! Taeyang hadn't 860Please respect copyright.PENANAMSCROXred1
noticed or else he would have agreed with Hyo-rin. But anyway, I was 860Please respect copyright.PENANAymNM54eUhN
tired and was in no state of talking about who liked me or not.860Please respect copyright.PENANAOq81G2vJPW
The next thing I 860Please respect copyright.PENANAZSz1mUcKHQ
remember was lying on my comfy pillows back at the hotel and my eyes 860Please respect copyright.PENANAbN5aiwRBA1
roll back.I covered myself with a blanket and I felt like I was sleeping860Please respect copyright.PENANAuO0hMOahvp
on clouds, slowly drifting to sleep.860Please respect copyright.PENANAdrbyOBmWDt
I woke up by the sound 860Please respect copyright.PENANAlSTPPd4ttv
of my phone ringing and I squinted after I opened my eyes and closed 860Please respect copyright.PENANAsSUmDPPHzT
them again. I murmured as I tried to look for my phone. My arm moved 860Please respect copyright.PENANABVI5fY7BRg
here and there on the bed and I couldn't remember where I had put my 860Please respect copyright.PENANAXwvQHqXtDU
phone. I was too lazy to even open my eyes to look for it.860Please respect copyright.PENANAbRxQwpkeWP
I reached out for the 860Please respect copyright.PENANAnHbFLObYNN
drawer beside the bed and as I fumbled on the surface looking for the 860Please respect copyright.PENANAUknfyEZ4vR
phone, I heard someone come in the room and before I could open my eyes,860Please respect copyright.PENANA21oUGNVdCA
I felt something in the palm of my hand. Was that my phone?860Please respect copyright.PENANAstl6Svp0Ku
I fully opened my eyes and indeed, the phone was in my hand. I looked up and Lee was the looking down at me.860Please respect copyright.PENANAFcN0aroqIg
"How did you know I needed my phone?" I asked.860Please respect copyright.PENANAKOI6Pn54GV
"I could hear it ringing860Please respect copyright.PENANAr57E4PnMcx
and I was just passing by your room. Thought you would still be asleep 860Please respect copyright.PENANAAUNx5EjUDZ
but when I came in you were struggling to find it," Lee answered.860Please respect copyright.PENANA8LUFNUDLpT
"Thanks," I said as I 860Please respect copyright.PENANAYG3UdjlQqb
sat up on the bed. My phone had stopped ringing and I had to wait till I860Please respect copyright.PENANAyFlOxcC3gs
could let my eyes adjust to see who had called.860Please respect copyright.PENANACeQQxsKtZL
"I hope this is the last time you ever stay up all night," said Lee. "You looked really tired when you came back."860Please respect copyright.PENANAfHiUhuCMWO
"You know I will keep on doing it time and again," I said as I looked at my phone. I had two missed calls.860Please respect copyright.PENANA26r19zmkTV
"Never mind. I'll order supper. You must be hungry."860Please respect copyright.PENANAMVAYICCO3H
"Thanks. I'll be out in a minute."860Please respect copyright.PENANAELIxqUoZW1
Lee left the room and I 860Please respect copyright.PENANAcRAi60iVFF
went on to look at my phone. I had missed calls from Zoey, and this was 860Please respect copyright.PENANA1KVoW2o1P0
just 9:30 PM. They must have already landed.860Please respect copyright.PENANADRHyzHFKem
"Hey, Lee," I called out to Lee as I found her watching a Korean drama series holding a bowl of popcorn. "Is Collins around?"860Please respect copyright.PENANApa1G1Qyatq
"No," Lee answered, putting popcorn in her mouth.860Please respect copyright.PENANAFDlkGm0KMx
I joined her on the couch and took a handful of popcorn from the bowl. "Did he tell you where he went?"860Please respect copyright.PENANAWThn7Jmy4P
"No. But I bet it's got to do with what he told us this morning."860Please respect copyright.PENANAtwoT79BSIY
"Of course." I rolled my eyes. "I should have known. Are you watching Boys Over Flowers?" I pointed at the TV screen.860Please respect copyright.PENANABnhPEZAQ2S
"Yes, it is. Your supper is on the table. Go get your plate and come over and sit. This series is so awesome."860Please respect copyright.PENANA7yX3O0Fof0
I dashed over to the 860Please respect copyright.PENANAu66LrxZ4Rj
dining table where there was a plate of spaghetti and meatballs. I 860Please respect copyright.PENANAgybIbanAyW
quickly dashed back to the couch and the two of us watched the series.860Please respect copyright.PENANAPB92H6toY2
It was now 10 PM and 860Please respect copyright.PENANAp5NdEvOHHQ
Zoey and the others still hadn't arrived. I looked at my phone to see if860Please respect copyright.PENANAfHQeKs3UP3
there were any messages or missed calls but nothing. I wonder where 860Please respect copyright.PENANAxBv3aaqyDY
they were right now.860Please respect copyright.PENANAHzpGh26QQV
"Hey, what's wrong?" Lee asked as she looked at me. The episode had ended and a commercial came up.860Please respect copyright.PENANAzXucbSVrya
"Nothing. I was wondering why these guys are not back yet."860Please respect copyright.PENANAmuuYQ4T1fn
"Who knows. I just hope they didn't get into any trouble, even on the road." Lee laughed.860Please respect copyright.PENANAd1K6keUQN8
"I hope not. After what happened at Caribbean Bay, I don't think they would want to go through something like that again."860Please respect copyright.PENANA92jjtxT07Y
"Why? You don't want to help them out again?"860Please respect copyright.PENANAsEPTJr8cR4
"Nope. I already had my own share of getting those guys out of trouble."860Please respect copyright.PENANA8yJIn5Oh91
"True."860Please respect copyright.PENANAw9BBHe850p
We soon heard the elevator doors opening and we both got up from the couch to the hallway to see who had arrived.860Please respect copyright.PENANAdMLXYUpU1J
Two bell boys came out 860Please respect copyright.PENANA6mL8KRLXnH
of the elevator first and I was confused until I saw they were bringing 860Please respect copyright.PENANAFCMCjhJiDn
in boxes and wrapped packages. Lee and I looked at each other.860Please respect copyright.PENANAJflFf8JrSk
"Zoey." We both said at the same time.860Please respect copyright.PENANAr2WtmoFcTj
There were so many gift 860Please respect copyright.PENANAguY0hwLK0U
boxes and packages from Paris, Lee and I had to help out with the bell 860Please respect copyright.PENANAAGgm33ocBY
boys with bringing everything in. Some of the boxes also had to come 860Please respect copyright.PENANAukvCtGGkXU
into the lounge. I was glad Collins wasn't here yet. He was going to be 860Please respect copyright.PENANAvQqA2fOZcD
so pissed.860Please respect copyright.PENANAU8BxP4EZiq
"Where is Zoey?" I asked one of the bell boys as we put in some boxes in the lounge.860Please respect copyright.PENANAGu3wvGlDWU
"They are downstairs," he answered.860Please respect copyright.PENANAXs13T35s4k
After we were done putting in the packages, Lee and I followed the bell boys into the elevator heading to the ground floor.860Please respect copyright.PENANAzK0ex7jmP5
When the doors flew 860Please respect copyright.PENANAhOmXm0th5s
open, I saw the Toxins and BigBang in the lobby all indulged in some 860Please respect copyright.PENANAWYeZXtnqFd
conversation. Even Hyo-rin was there. They didn't seem to notice Lee and860Please respect copyright.PENANAxLENr8FdYL
I until Daniel looked towards the elevator.860Please respect copyright.PENANAHUD5BoADgQ
"Sam! Lee!" Daniel exclaimed and he ran towards me.860Please respect copyright.PENANA0NMe4W6X7I
"Hey!" I was surprised when he came to hug me. "You've never come running towards me like this in a while."860Please respect copyright.PENANAVrDbh5SYUR
"I just missed you," said Daniel. "You too, Lee."860Please respect copyright.PENANANHkPEzq6OR
As Daniel hugged Lee, Mike came to hug me. I was even more surprised.860Please respect copyright.PENANAqUFxnjDWnV
"Guys, you've been away for a day and you're acting like you've been away for months," I said.860Please respect copyright.PENANAaLk9atlFv0
"Paris was nice, but not without you, Sam," said Mike.860Please respect copyright.PENANAONuCevi2Yf
"Don't tell me Zoey was acting like a control freak," said Lee teasingly.860Please respect copyright.PENANAnqYpwsFatM
"Hey," Zoey came over to us. "I tried to be really reasonable this time around. Don't blame me."860Please respect copyright.PENANADuDX0HIkOn
"We aren't blaming you for anything, Zoey," I said. "How was Paris?"860Please respect copyright.PENANAWw9P9TdocF
Zoey hugged me instead. "I missed you so much, my little kitty!"860Please respect copyright.PENANARPGQqAeW9v
I raised an eyebrow. 860Please respect copyright.PENANAydsvx32wND
Something was definitely up this time. Christine also came to join in 860Please respect copyright.PENANA1x4bcgd6VP
the hug. What did these guys do in Paris for them to behave like this?860Please respect copyright.PENANAWhxyvoxzXg
"Okay. Enough," I said as I shook off Zoey and Christine away from me. "Can someone please tell me why you're acting like this?"860Please respect copyright.PENANAPjTXVc8z2o
"Everyone just missed 860Please respect copyright.PENANAZ5EJMSSTRm
you. That's all," this time it was TOP who answered as he came towards 860Please respect copyright.PENANAuxnCrPXuf3
me with his arms outstretched. "Aren't you also going to give me a hug?"860Please respect copyright.PENANADL17dSTQvK
I rolled my eyes at him,860Please respect copyright.PENANAAJJ4YNDmr0
feeling rather hilarious that he had asked for a hug. I took a few 860Please respect copyright.PENANAXqJHPlabSK
steps towards him. I couldn't understand why I had a stupid smile on my 860Please respect copyright.PENANAZtsyPJ8Yfu
face when I hugged him.860Please respect copyright.PENANAmVgkyuGKcg
"I missed you too, TOP," I said after we broke away from each other.860Please respect copyright.PENANAoKcKi1nw0h
"Wait! You missed TOP 860Please respect copyright.PENANAgW8i2DS8aT
but not us?" Zoey asked. "I'm so upset. After buying you all those gifts860Please respect copyright.PENANAnCSot4L0u6
and you didn't miss me? I thought you were my best friend."860Please respect copyright.PENANAb0Vx1qnNlK
I always loved it when 860Please respect copyright.PENANA9uFKUArUbV
Zoey acted like a jealous best friend. I turned to look at her with a 860Please respect copyright.PENANA07ikDDiDJt
smile and before I could reply, someone else did instead.860Please respect copyright.PENANAdwoa0ZeMoh
"Don't mind her, Zoey. Looks like she only cares about TOP instead of anyone else."860Please respect copyright.PENANA2YuU5Ebb6a
For a moment, that voice860Please respect copyright.PENANAG4RFhjoJsE
sent a chill down my spine and I didn't even want to turn around. I 860Please respect copyright.PENANAdfNhbEHLq1
clenched and unclenched my fists. His voice was so full of bitterness it860Please respect copyright.PENANAttfkktbKSJ
almost sent me into an outrage. I don't know why this time around, I 860Please respect copyright.PENANAZeguSGsBrU
wasn't afraid or scared of what G-Dragon thought of me. I was tired that860Please respect copyright.PENANAltekcljFYF
he was still acting the same way he had left.860Please respect copyright.PENANA3bdsZ6UCKJ
I was really confused. I860Please respect copyright.PENANAUZKe1jJ2m4
wasn't so clear why he was mad at me. And I hated the fact that I had 860Please respect copyright.PENANAnBxejr1B2f
to think around in circles just to figure out what was wrong with him. 860Please respect copyright.PENANAr3w66TZMfw
This time it wasn't the jealousy he had for TOP. It felt way more 860Please respect copyright.PENANAjYY71yF3fB
personal and it had to do with me.860Please respect copyright.PENANA2OEXzjM880
I had no other choice 860Please respect copyright.PENANA3R7IcG5IWT
but to turn around to face him. I made sure that my face didn't reveal 860Please respect copyright.PENANAyICM3qEuyo
how I truly felt. G-Dragon was standing right next to Hyo-rin and 860Please respect copyright.PENANAsegDLe4S1D
Taeyang. I managed to put up a smile before I could say anything.860Please respect copyright.PENANAISXkqiHoPE
"Hi, GD. How was Paris?"860Please respect copyright.PENANAVqAcTQebul
By the look on his face,860Please respect copyright.PENANA0TgDnUg33f
I bet he didn't expect me to greet him. I wasn't going to give him want860Please respect copyright.PENANAXyG4dqO7sE
he wanted. If I had answered by talking back at him, things weren't 860Please respect copyright.PENANAx1vOr8NkHf
going to end pretty tonight.860Please respect copyright.PENANAFYgLJvJVW4
"Paris was okay," G-Dragon answered. "I heard you managed to finish the song and played it to everyone today."860Please respect copyright.PENANAyaTf1mff1g
"Ya, I did."860Please respect copyright.PENANAEysEZNbLVw
"The song will make you want to dance all day long," said Daesung.860Please respect copyright.PENANAEtxN1nHHPi
"Ya, it's pretty awesome," said Seungri.860Please respect copyright.PENANAfod4O2D50J
"Can't wait to hear it,"860Please respect copyright.PENANAHnrGkjtbww
said Daniel as he came to stand beside me and nudge me by the shoulder.860Please respect copyright.PENANA1m31fgfuVs
"You should give us a preview when we go upstairs."860Please respect copyright.PENANAcMOa8wYv0d
"Anything for you, 860Please respect copyright.PENANA9EglNSfD8f
guys," I said as I pinched my brother's cheek. "That's how much I care 860Please respect copyright.PENANACpyMO5bo78
about you. Unlike some people who think I don't miss them." I turned to 860Please respect copyright.PENANAiMJdMT3Dny
look at Zoey.860Please respect copyright.PENANAkVY4ntrSj0
"Don't mind her," said Christine. "You just know how she is."860Please respect copyright.PENANAdyqInLGDWr
"You guys better go and rest," said Taeyang. "We have a busy day tomorrow."860Please respect copyright.PENANA30xMq72pLw
"Okay, we better go then," said Seungri. "See you guys tomorrow."860Please respect copyright.PENANAxl4p11uQOL
After saying bye to each other, we all went our separate ways.860Please respect copyright.PENANAab9O6EM6Ic
"You know Collins is 860Please respect copyright.PENANAYoumyIWwTE
going to kill you, right? With all those gifts you came with," I said to860Please respect copyright.PENANAS7sDGagoki
Zoey and the others as we were all in the elevator going up to our 860Please respect copyright.PENANAbegqwasmiG
floor.860Please respect copyright.PENANAE2mFOwoR0n
"Don't worry, we also got a few presents for him too," said Mike.860Please respect copyright.PENANAVJig5X4WyE
"And you think bringing him gifts will help?" Lee asked. "You guys are in a lot of trouble."860Please respect copyright.PENANAYp3Hg7Ff0C
"This won't be the first time," said Zoey. "I mean, we're always in trouble no matter the cause."860Please respect copyright.PENANA2pjHY3MiAp
I looked at Zoey and wondered why she would say that. Did they have a little problem in Paris? I hope not.860Please respect copyright.PENANAgBPKULxCCt
"We better sort out all 860Please respect copyright.PENANAJ8eSQM26Rz
the gifts before Collins gets here. You don't want to get on his bad 860Please respect copyright.PENANANGI1raBiz7
side, like you usually do," I said as we got out of the elevator on our 860Please respect copyright.PENANA4mVDSQ3xmg
floor.860Please respect copyright.PENANAIh05olZmUn
Sorting out all the 860Please respect copyright.PENANAy7diuBGcRG
packages and gifts took a whole lot of time than I had expected. The 860Please respect copyright.PENANAW2Yehk8cgi
gifts in the hall and also in the lounge were just too many. These guys 860Please respect copyright.PENANAN6CNpcSEeH
had really bought a lot of stuff.860Please respect copyright.PENANAaOkF6ZIoes
The boys had brought a 860Please respect copyright.PENANAJpivbV4G81
handful of video games, including some expensive designer t-shirts and 860Please respect copyright.PENANAPVF5c9U2Lb
jeans from Chanel. Expensive French cologne for men and watches with 860Please respect copyright.PENANAER82KCINrx
expensive designer shoes.860Please respect copyright.PENANA3Yf83xIwCn
As for Zoey and 860Please respect copyright.PENANA5bSMXbYHHA
Christine, well, you know what girls would like to buy if they ever go 860Please respect copyright.PENANAW5xHiIIhuG
to Paris. Designer shoes and dresses. Expensive perfumes and Zoey also 860Please respect copyright.PENANAppdOon0J0e
bought along with her some expensive jewellery.860Please respect copyright.PENANAP6BJDXo52Z
"G-Dragon was helping me860Please respect copyright.PENANALJ7Om2JOHI
out with picking the jewellery," said Zoey when she showed us a pretty 860Please respect copyright.PENANAz9ykT8PbXT
gold necklace with matching gold earrings.860Please respect copyright.PENANA7ZGENhPeaw
"Wow, very pretty," said Lee as she looked at the jewellery.860Please respect copyright.PENANAnEGYfTcwQK
"Ya, very pretty," I said dully, looking at it briefly.860Please respect copyright.PENANASdhGcL2iTq
We were sitting on the 860Please respect copyright.PENANA021XJViDAB
floor in the lounge sorting out the gifts. The ladies were huddled up in860Please respect copyright.PENANANpMgevAmYI
one circle while the boys were next to us also sorting out their own 860Please respect copyright.PENANA5AxY1lp7zt
stuff with Collins' too.860Please respect copyright.PENANAmAqqzimLNg
"We also bought a beautiful necklace for you too," said Christine looking over the boxes behind her. "Where is it?"860Please respect copyright.PENANAofXls1jFMZ
I was also searching for any jewellery box behind me when I stumbled over a box of Lindtt chocolates.860Please respect copyright.PENANAJkxCUhEmWX
"Yum, is this for me?" I asked as I got the box and looked greedily at it.860Please respect copyright.PENANAJT1KEIUM2O
"Hey! It's for all of us," Zoey warned. "I know you love chocolates, but you don't have to be so selfish."860Please respect copyright.PENANA5UfiuSbhhx
"Since when have I ever been selfish?" I asked, as I opened the box.860Please respect copyright.PENANAH76SgdjD96
"Okay, you've never been selfish. But when it comes to chocolates...."860Please respect copyright.PENANAYIjKyiFf8m
"'But when it comes to chocolates.....'" I mimicked her. "At least I know how to share."860Please respect copyright.PENANA9AYxf7GhmH
I distributed the 860Please respect copyright.PENANAJ42I3LuFyi
chocolates to everyone. Lee was trying on a pair of heels which looked 860Please respect copyright.PENANAVV4CG7BNel
so good on her while Zoey kept on looking for the jewellery box which 860Please respect copyright.PENANAJUg2OqEZC5
was meant for me.860Please respect copyright.PENANAjCayHzc8vF
"Where is it?" Zoey muttered to herself as she looked at the other packages on the floor.860Please respect copyright.PENANAxQyajQGRgv
"Don't worry about it," I said as I walked over to her. "We will find it tomorrow. We can't go through all these right now."860Please respect copyright.PENANAMaHkqQL5jo
"Ya, you're right," said Zoey. She had a gloomy look on her face. I could tell that she had bought that gift with lots of love.860Please respect copyright.PENANAYXE7XcCidl
"But we better pack up some of these stuff," said Lee. "This place is in a mess and Collins might....."860Please respect copyright.PENANAIsVyih8xT5
When Lee just mentioned his name, the sound of the elevator doors opening was heard. Collins was here!860Please respect copyright.PENANA9hjNRdZe5V
For a moment, time 860Please respect copyright.PENANAjwyRLhTHyT
seemed to have stopped and all of us in the lounge had stopped along 860Please respect copyright.PENANA4iR8EvpamR
with it. We all had our mouths open, looking at each other in shock. We 860Please respect copyright.PENANALRwo5Z8n7G
hadn't finished packing up and Collins would freak out when he sees this860Please respect copyright.PENANA0CkyUBNOiO
mess.860Please respect copyright.PENANAF7oxUGFazK
"Hey, guys I'm here!" came Collins voice in the hall.860Please respect copyright.PENANAG53mYXUnec
"What are we going to do?" Mike whispered as he looked at me.860Please respect copyright.PENANAuQEfUxfrIl
"I don't know," I whispered. This was bad.860Please respect copyright.PENANAcNKBN9a9nj
"Hide," Zoey whispered.860Please respect copyright.PENANAE1tEevfqwq
For me, it kind of felt 860Please respect copyright.PENANAHRJ2LNyCwQ
pointless to hide. But not for the other four Toxins. Zoey went to the 860Please respect copyright.PENANApTz47iqt0C
dining table and hid under the table. Christine, Mike and Daniel hid 860Please respect copyright.PENANAQE7bFLUDRR
behind the couch. Lee and I just stood there, static.860Please respect copyright.PENANAsZDBKyzFbx
When Collins came to the860Please respect copyright.PENANAjDb65RrD3o
lounge, he stopped on his tracks. He was obviously trying to take 860Please respect copyright.PENANAtq5AscVNkJ
everything in. His mouth was slightly open, trying to say something, but860Please respect copyright.PENANAapawBipeqN
he just couldn't.860Please respect copyright.PENANAuX1smoYY8h
"Hey, Collins," I said.860Please respect copyright.PENANA5ZiW3udpxW
"What is all this?" Collins asked when as he took a step into the lounge, looking around.860Please respect copyright.PENANA3M9VYavXfT
"Christmas came a little early," said Lee, with a smile.860Please respect copyright.PENANAYuByBelFKz
Collins looked over at Lee and noticed the heels she was wearing. "Those look nice."860Please respect copyright.PENANAdblizJjZAm
"Thanks."860Please respect copyright.PENANAReXduo00uL
"Where are they?" Collins turned to look at me.860Please respect copyright.PENANAbRM8FViQLW
"Who?" I asked.860Please respect copyright.PENANAiGpj2NuBlr
"You know who I'm talking about."860Please respect copyright.PENANA0zJEQ01Yyt
"If you're talking about Santa's little helpers, they left a while ago." I said as I folded my arms.860Please respect copyright.PENANA0PGno22gaX
"Santa's little helpers, alright," said Collins as he carefully walked around, avoiding to step on anything.860Please respect copyright.PENANA8w5JYOMccP
Collins went over to the860Please respect copyright.PENANAeNnpN4sjwM
dining table. There were a few gifts on the table and down on the 860Please respect copyright.PENANA544GvJtlYG
floor. Collins moved the presents down on the floor and Zoey was beaming860Please respect copyright.PENANAYdzKsIqBai
up at him.860Please respect copyright.PENANAFeW5Gk50Ma
"Hey, Collins! Looks like you found one elf who stayed behind," said Zoey, beaming up at him.860Please respect copyright.PENANAFlLvIMeena
"Where are the others?" Collins asked.860Please respect copyright.PENANAfmLOZB8hw6
Christine, Daniel and Mike came out from behind the couch and they all said, "hey, Collins!"860Please respect copyright.PENANA9AlthCDVsX
"Guys, what is all this?" Collins said as he looked around the lounge.860Please respect copyright.PENANAvzmyB4iyEw
"Gifts from Paris," said Zoey.860Please respect copyright.PENANAnBMkz3zCCT
"But why did you get all this stuff? I hope you didn't use your credit cards."860Please respect copyright.PENANApScoubp3Hd
"Well..." Mike looked down at his feet.860Please respect copyright.PENANATownHobomB
"Okay, great." Collins looked worn out if not frustrated. "I hope you didn't finish up all the money in your accounts."860Please respect copyright.PENANAWe9OVZk1YD
"I doubt it," said Daniel. "We made sure to be careful with what we were buying."860Please respect copyright.PENANAWADrSh0Mgg
"Ya, most of the stuff weren't bought by us, you know? If it came to the designer clothes, it was all from Chanel," said Zoey.860Please respect copyright.PENANADPrhHVn23W
"I'll know for myself when I get to see your bank accounts," said Collins.860Please respect copyright.PENANALEGJoOZFmg
"Here, we brought you an860Please respect copyright.PENANAEu5BbyIwY1
expensive watch too," said Daniel as he gave Collins a fancy looking 860Please respect copyright.PENANAK0TuWtoCi9
box. A watch from Rolex. It was definitely expensive.860Please respect copyright.PENANAtRWIanaVec
"That's because you're the best manager ever," said Christine.860Please respect copyright.PENANApGO5pjaDgE
"Thanks," said Collins, 860Please respect copyright.PENANAynj8FKcxG8
as he looked at the watch, looking rather impressed. "Do me a favour and860Please respect copyright.PENANAerkc4CaWsb
finish clearing up all this. And also bring my gifts to my room. Okay?"860Please respect copyright.PENANA8AJtl2xhi6
Collins smiled at the rest of us and left the lounge.860Please respect copyright.PENANAXbRQ7d670D
"Looks like he isn't really upset," said Lee. "He would have blown a big fuse already."860Please respect copyright.PENANA5T5NSI6TR5
Lee was right. Collins 860Please respect copyright.PENANADepbr4hyb3
wasn't really upset, but that smile he gave us before he left, made me 860Please respect copyright.PENANAmmcipUTNNl
realise something. He might be upset, but I felt like he had already 860Please respect copyright.PENANAzxb2k0uX0O
arranged something to get back at us. And why not that which he and Yang860Please respect copyright.PENANAhKBRsuLzT2
Hyun-suk have planned for us? That for me would be the perfect payback.860Please respect copyright.PENANA8eNZVy0BKu
That's if it is that bad enough to stun us all.860Please respect copyright.PENANAgSUSl3W0gT
"Okay, people, let's get done with this," said Zoey. "It's almost close to midnight."860Please respect copyright.PENANAG5SbgLfzje
We continued sorting out860Please respect copyright.PENANAblnRQ4iZGR
everything and by midnight, the lounge had cleared up a little except a860Please respect copyright.PENANAzkiVWIjkcF
few wrappers on the floor which we picked up and threw away in the 860Please respect copyright.PENANAAnzzQWigjg
waste bin which was overflowing with wrappers and empty boxes. And I 860Please respect copyright.PENANA0ZRdPs6iKC
planned with the others to sing them the song tomorrow because it was 860Please respect copyright.PENANAPKFuBhhe7V
already too late and we all needed to rest.860Please respect copyright.PENANA2E5meUq2lX
We hadn't managed to 860Please respect copyright.PENANA0tZQAA6jiH
find the jewellery box with my necklace. Zoey thought maybe TOP or GD 860Please respect copyright.PENANA6nmjYMtfEw
had it. I didn't like the thought that GD might have it. Getting it back860Please respect copyright.PENANA80bzzMGvuz
from him was going to be difficult, looking at our current situation of860Please respect copyright.PENANArYcUzR1B4g
course.860Please respect copyright.PENANAPWJAnNwJCw
When we were all done and had retired to our rooms, Zoey quickly pushed me into the room when I was just coming into the room.860Please respect copyright.PENANA90RvQCFzE2
"Zoey, what's wrong with you?" I asked when she made me sit on the bed.860Please respect copyright.PENANA5S60q8Hk8X
Zoey went by the door and checked in the hall if there was anyone. Then she came back in and stood before me.860Please respect copyright.PENANAXlennkBaJP
"What is it, Zoey?" I asked. "What's so urgent?"860Please respect copyright.PENANAj1QEwsZtC3
"Nothing much," said Zoey. "I just needed you in the room."860Please respect copyright.PENANAz6KvmLEbLw
I looked at her with an 860Please respect copyright.PENANAwpvrHq0vLR
eyebrow raised. Something was definitely up and she looked like she was 860Please respect copyright.PENANAJq4JVjDZgo
stuck in between telling me what was bothering her or not.860Please respect copyright.PENANApfQbzlJOCk
"So, tell me what happened in Paris," I said as I took my Mr Panda into my arms. "How was the fashion show?"860Please respect copyright.PENANA96m9Slw9K9
"It was fine," Zoey replied as she walked to the closet to get her pyjamas.860Please respect copyright.PENANAGT9lB8styX
"Fine?" I looked at 860Please respect copyright.PENANAa77qKRKd6v
Zoey's back and then I looked at Mr Panda then back at her again. 860Please respect copyright.PENANAdajcv39HqB
"Knowing you, you would've said it was so exquisite or it was so 860Please respect copyright.PENANAZxQcgu25yd
awesome. What's happened to you? This isn't my best friend."860Please respect copyright.PENANAVJv4j9SmVO
"Nothing happened," said Zoey as she took out her pyjamas and came back to put them on the bed.860Please respect copyright.PENANAlpQyifxRG3
"Tell me, please!" I 860Please respect copyright.PENANAnc0FmKWWvu
begged. I even made Mr Panda on my lap beg as well putting his tiny cute860Please respect copyright.PENANAlYPpbHnOke
paws together. "Nothing is not an excuse. You look like you want to 860Please respect copyright.PENANAWdNODQmGQN
tell me something. So tell me!"860Please respect copyright.PENANAqCZgThCO2e
"Keep your voice down!" Zoey snapped at me as she tried to cover my mouth but I slapped her hand away.860Please respect copyright.PENANAHeuinpkqH9
"Then what's wrong, Zoey? Did something happen in Paris?"860Please respect copyright.PENANAq6tM2yNFsX
"Well, nothing much happened," said Zoey as she sat down on her bed and looked lost in thought.860Please respect copyright.PENANASsGXG9PC5U
"Hello! Earth to Zoey!" I snapped my fingers in front of Zoey's face. "You look so lost. Please tell me what's bothering you."860Please respect copyright.PENANAizSQYfv2EL
Zoey paused and looked at me for a few seconds. Then she slumped her shoulders and sighed. "Okay, I will tell you."860Please respect copyright.PENANAsWDS0ouOPH
I felt really excited 860Please respect copyright.PENANATrfxJ60zOZ
like I was about to watch a blockbuster movie. I hugged Mr Panda close 860Please respect copyright.PENANAytNtILTCa9
to me. Ready for what's about to drop out of Zoey's mouth.860Please respect copyright.PENANAdt6jbYf50B
"I don't know how I 860Please respect copyright.PENANAW6bqBP4VoF
should tell you this," said Zoey as she played with her fingers and was 860Please respect copyright.PENANAmEKq73rAQ3
staring somewhere else. "But when we got to Paris, we went to the Eiffle860Please respect copyright.PENANAXqdoJOuoIw
Tower."860Please respect copyright.PENANAKLBlJ494n5
"Ya, I saw the picture. 860Please respect copyright.PENANAFWEsRTlflm
So much for going to Paris without me," I muttered. "You know I have 860Please respect copyright.PENANAuwVpJRUAhy
always wanted to visit the Eiffle Tower."860Please respect copyright.PENANAlNCKsyvvs0
"Aren't you going to let me talk?" Zoey asked.860Please respect copyright.PENANAouACQBCkPQ
"Okay. Continue." I pressed my chin onto Mr Panda's head.860Please respect copyright.PENANADUK6rGgeuJ
"So we got to the Tower and we were having a good time as usual." Zoey paused as she licked her lips. "Then something happened."860Please respect copyright.PENANAMa7WidNlz6
"What?"860Please respect copyright.PENANAh5K1bvfz3n
"When we got to the top 860Please respect copyright.PENANASHC1VU3gBC
of the Eiffle Tower, we were enjoying the view and I was so caught up 860Please respect copyright.PENANAw7TBqWZqI3
with looking at the bright lights of the city I didn't notice that the 860Please respect copyright.PENANA8yYFR7jGk5
others had left and it was just GD and I."860Please respect copyright.PENANAJuGKDNLjpR
My eyes grew wide. I 860Please respect copyright.PENANALNjQHnsCYc
knew where all this was going already. And before I could let my best 860Please respect copyright.PENANAIugKrvXcLX
friend share her magical moment herself, I blurted it out.860Please respect copyright.PENANAEuifY02DLS
"You two kissed."860Please respect copyright.PENANA8dUSPraa0t
"What the...! Sam!" Zoey hit the bed with her hands. "How could you!"860Please respect copyright.PENANASbmflGl24d
"I'm sorry." I hissed and covered my mouth. That wasn't supposed to happen.860Please respect copyright.PENANAAcwN8ej2NK
"Great! How did you know?" Zoey still looked pissed, but yet surprised.860Please respect copyright.PENANAGvL8xVMrwB
"Well, you were in one 860Please respect copyright.PENANAwaWegD8gv5
of the most romantic cities in the world and you two were left alone, so860Please respect copyright.PENANAwKexoCQ7dw
for me, that was a perfect romantic scene."860Please respect copyright.PENANAPu3pr85Smr
"Smart."860Please respect copyright.PENANAQTzS6qxR6I
"Thanks. So, how was it?"860Please respect copyright.PENANAGHZDXx8rzc
Zoey smiled like a fool,860Please respect copyright.PENANALfih9ECrB1
now that the secret was out in the open. "It was so unexpected but yet 860Please respect copyright.PENANA4xAKlL5oB3
it was so magical at the same time."860Please respect copyright.PENANAf9IZaWMZYj
I couldn't help but 860Please respect copyright.PENANACX19jCJZWo
smile. It's been a long time since she smiled like that. The last time 860Please respect copyright.PENANAtuJEKSIQeA
she did, it was back in high school when she was going out with the 860Please respect copyright.PENANAxGaOw58fqd
hottest and yet popular guy in school and they kissed in front of 860Please respect copyright.PENANAMcvEt9tRpI
everyone at the prom.860Please respect copyright.PENANAVg0aI6af54
"Oh my gosh, Sam," said Zoey rubbing her cheeks. She was blushing. "I can't stop smiling to myself."860Please respect copyright.PENANAWtlzb5ykdG
"So you guys kissed, and then what?"860Please respect copyright.PENANAvj6lDo12xf
"Nothing really. We had to pretend in front of the others when we went down the Eiffle Tower like nothing had happened."860Please respect copyright.PENANA0TcDikNkqo
"And? Anything else? 860Please respect copyright.PENANA7PpTfd5FlV
What happened at the top of the Tower after you kissed?" I leaned 860Please respect copyright.PENANAYfHuUgU2r6
forwards with Mr Panda also eager to hear.860Please respect copyright.PENANApWlEYBILKU
"When we were on top of 860Please respect copyright.PENANA3fPH218wGV
the Tower, when we kissed, he told me he liked me and kept on saying the860Please respect copyright.PENANA10l22myKGG
most sweetest words ever. How he had always liked me."860Please respect copyright.PENANAnvtX9WExrX
Well that's a bummer. 860Please respect copyright.PENANAuG71Bf8H15
But to be honest, I expected it. I remembered he had also said those 860Please respect copyright.PENANA4PineMY2ZP
words to me too. But that was when he was drunk. Could it be that he 860Please respect copyright.PENANAbPcNqtyiW1
really liked Zoey and not me?860Please respect copyright.PENANA0z9jRKicZw
I brushed that off. Why 860Please respect copyright.PENANAd7bfmxhlep
should I even care? I knew from the very beginning that GD wasn't in his860Please respect copyright.PENANAie0aacC2PD
right state of mind when he told me he liked me. I didn't really get my860Please respect copyright.PENANAGr3x1BowJG
hopes up with it.860Please respect copyright.PENANANCKKV3VpCs
"I even told Christine," said Zoey. "I just hope you don't tell Collins."860Please respect copyright.PENANALuz1KyOHRX
"And why should I tell him?" I asked, shrugging my shoulders.860Please respect copyright.PENANAfWS8ahFVtk
"Ya, you're right. And don't tell your brothers. They are going to make fun of me."860Please respect copyright.PENANAMmF8ZhWy3Z
"Telling my brothers is one thing I wouldn't do."860Please respect copyright.PENANAowbf5KxLRk
"Thanks, Sam."860Please respect copyright.PENANAYizVh4oPqL
"Hey, what are best friends for? We better go to sleep. We might leave for YG tomorrow really early."860Please respect copyright.PENANA3JhNIkDIQA
"Okay." Zoey hopped on her bed like a little child and started to change into her pyjamas.860Please respect copyright.PENANAkKGslhzFxm
I left Mr Panda on the 860Please respect copyright.PENANA6Fk0bY37oK
bed and also went to the closet to get my pyjamas. When I changed, I 860Please respect copyright.PENANAUIC6AfCXHS
quickly went into the bed covers and put Mr Panda right beside me. I had860Please respect copyright.PENANA3iSEIRm9em
gotten used to the stuffed panda being around whenever I slept. I 860Please respect copyright.PENANAx006dWCq2f
looked over at Zoey who was already in her bed covers.860Please respect copyright.PENANADCVSo4kE9V
"Good night, Zoey," I said to her with a smile.860Please respect copyright.PENANAnAxR9ckyCj
"Good night," she replied. She turned to the other side to flip the switch beside the bed on the wall and the room went dark.860Please respect copyright.PENANArF1hZLnf15
I laid my head on the 860Please respect copyright.PENANAe8aCwa23XJ
pillow and just as I closed my eyes, I could hear Zoey giggling to 860Please respect copyright.PENANAxi7h5AuUPs
herself. She was obviously texting G-Dragon on her phone and I couldn't 860Please respect copyright.PENANA64jUAKgAuB
blame her. She was so happy when she talked to me about kissing him on 860Please respect copyright.PENANAXM5DkVH9bY
the Eiffle Tower. And it was also probably a good thing that I had never860Please respect copyright.PENANAsUgxEGnijt
told Zoey what happened on Friday when GD came in drunk and told me 860Please respect copyright.PENANAWgeec20pxw
that he liked me. I could only imagine what the whole scenario would 860Please respect copyright.PENANAyJUuePuf7B
have been.860Please respect copyright.PENANAbjc5Ux568A
Zoey would have only 860Please respect copyright.PENANAtGzsRWk4kn
felt guilty about it and would have confronted GD about playing the two 860Please respect copyright.PENANAtnNCUjHAUm
of us around. It wasn't like he kissed me anyway, so maybe I was a bit 860Please respect copyright.PENANAHJb6j39VPr
on the safe side. But it was still good that I didn't tell her anything.860Please respect copyright.PENANA8G0c2YYW0q
To be honest, I was happy for Zoey. And when I heard her giggling again, I realised that I wouldn't want to hurt her.860Please respect copyright.PENANAPOQlOqD81e
I pulled Mr Panda closer860Please respect copyright.PENANArbXIETEv5n
and cuddled him. I was soon drifting away into a deep sleep, eager for 860Please respect copyright.PENANALZERCr4w8l
what's to come when I woke up in the morning.860Please respect copyright.PENANADNXOrTuggz
***860Please respect copyright.PENANAOfdcOTic7C
I was given a round of 860Please respect copyright.PENANA9sAimaIo4X
applause when I finished singing the song. I was in the lounge with the 860Please respect copyright.PENANAePG2pHml37
Toxins and I stood before them as I sang the song. I didn't have a 860Please respect copyright.PENANAucjJGFMvfg
guitar with me but I managed to sing it anyway.860Please respect copyright.PENANAPz8emWaug1
"The song is incredible," said Zoey. "I never thought it would be this good."860Please respect copyright.PENANAfgXGmI32Qu
"And your Korean is good too," said Christine.860Please respect copyright.PENANAPqsP2KokCG
"I can't wait to start working on the song," said Mike.860Please respect copyright.PENANAMSmDilQxbn
"Then you better eat 860Please respect copyright.PENANAuZNrcpCnq3
your breakfast," said Lee as she came in with the room service bringing 860Please respect copyright.PENANAhm1FqRHNUM
in our breakfast. "We have a long day ahead."860Please respect copyright.PENANA4wy17sy2U4
We went over to the dinning table and settled down. We were all having toast for breakfast.860Please respect copyright.PENANAfQsQ484jYL
"I can't wait for us to 860Please respect copyright.PENANAZPrG9Kofcd
go to the studio," said Zoey happily as she jumped excitedly on her seat860Please respect copyright.PENANAUdM95RXTMC
beside me. I could only tell why.860Please respect copyright.PENANABBUoNCzrlH
Christine who sat 860Please respect copyright.PENANA1VUMfLP6Rr
opposite from Zoey coughed and I could tell that she just coughed out 860Please respect copyright.PENANAM5u1m5NncJ
G-Dragon's name. Luckily, the boys hadn't even noticed. And by the look 860Please respect copyright.PENANAcnqsQshEPj
on Lee's face, sitting directly opposite me, she already knew about Zoey860Please respect copyright.PENANA2JNFFd8xPa
and G-Dragon.860Please respect copyright.PENANAWi2mm33XXM
When we were done 860Please respect copyright.PENANAaShtEwJ3SL
eating, we headed downstairs and as usual, there were paparazzi, 860Please respect copyright.PENANAaCM5akbAsF
reporters and fans too. We entered into the SUV and we arrived at YG.860Please respect copyright.PENANAjIXBBTxUs5
"Hey, Sam," Zoey called out to me when we got out of the car. I turned to look at her.860Please respect copyright.PENANAYFjeIRS5pZ
"What is it, Zoey?"860Please respect copyright.PENANAqYWTdtX1TA
"Do I look okay? I mean, is my hair on point, my make up?"860Please respect copyright.PENANAeJy3InDnIr
Mike growled loudly behind us as he came out of the car with Daniel right behind him. "The drama queen is at it again."860Please respect copyright.PENANAnEfLzOv4oj
"Can't you just zip up your mouth and let me worry about myself?" Zoey asked, rolling her eyes.860Please respect copyright.PENANA87JJh2V7JB
"That's the problem," 860Please respect copyright.PENANA5xQaRcESeN
said Mike as he came to stand in front of Zoey. "Once you start acting 860Please respect copyright.PENANAcUAvnhHyO7
like this, something is definitely up or you're just trying to impress 860Please respect copyright.PENANAHR8eJYlrVt
someone. You've been acting really weird ever since we got to Paris."860Please respect copyright.PENANAJmXfsGjSD6
Mike turned away and 860Please respect copyright.PENANA9prLu8lgR1
headed straight for the entrance with Daniel. I could have sworn I saw 860Please respect copyright.PENANAZ9qj7muooI
him smirk before he walked away. Could it be that he might know 860Please respect copyright.PENANAxows48dGOF
something?860Please respect copyright.PENANA0991O4CtF1
"Don't mind him," said Christine. "You know how these boys like to mock us. Let's go."860Please respect copyright.PENANAjQxrHIH47C
We agreed with Christine860Please respect copyright.PENANAREK1SmNq8U
and we went into the YG building with Lee and Collins. We got to the 860Please respect copyright.PENANA0GyiABTZgE
studio and I wasn't expecting the BigBang members to be there before us.860Please respect copyright.PENANA46ZzNyJnZo
Finding them here earlier than us was a bit of a surprise.860Please respect copyright.PENANAD5cqc1nvr3
"Hey, guys!" Zoey greeted everyone.860Please respect copyright.PENANAwGfMQhGr41
"Hey, how are you," said G-Dragon as he came and gave her a hug. I bypassed them heading to the couch sitting next to Daesung.860Please respect copyright.PENANATwrwKtBmO8
"Hey, are you alright?" Daesung asked.860Please respect copyright.PENANAXS6y19jVQL
"Oh, I'm fine," I answered. "I slept a little late last night since these guys came with so many gifts."860Please respect copyright.PENANA1NZ3kI4w0x
"I also feel like I 860Please respect copyright.PENANACRGB3yeJXo
didn't get enough sleep," said Christine as she came to sit beside me. 860Please respect copyright.PENANAmfzebZux9X
She was obviously trying to avoid the two love birds in the room. The 860Please respect copyright.PENANAhPFAD0aiat
two of them seem to be in a deep conversation at the moment.860Please respect copyright.PENANA3OWmidJoqb
"Do you think we should 860Please respect copyright.PENANAhfXgTtQfhy
start?" Seungri asked as he came to stand by the couch and also noticed 860Please respect copyright.PENANAUTcM9mdQOH
how close Zoey and G-Dragon were.860Please respect copyright.PENANAuGQ1FHL0l1
"What's up with them?" Mike asked as he stood in front of me with his arms folded.860Please respect copyright.PENANAw9dNO5HO4J
"Can't you see they are having a conversation?" Christine asked.860Please respect copyright.PENANA6VsylEAdv6
"Well, I think we should start working on the song," said TOP who sat next to Daesung.860Please respect copyright.PENANARvgncJR0uZ
"I think someone has to tell these guys," said Taeyang. "Sam? May you do the honours?"860Please respect copyright.PENANA6LPI0Tqvmk
I looked over at Taeyang who sat at the far end of the couch with my eyebrow raised.860Please respect copyright.PENANA0NlrWqClM3
"You do it," I said. "Why should I?"860Please respect copyright.PENANATPKKHSTBCn
"Because everyone listens to you," said Daniel.860Please respect copyright.PENANAHS8PcnXdyu
Everyone around me shook their heads. I sighed.860Please respect copyright.PENANAkPwzaUWnDN
I stood up from the 860Please respect copyright.PENANA2HEnLcQYa7
couch and I went over to the multi track console where I had left my 860Please respect copyright.PENANA3LuBAKd42t
notebook yesterday. Zoey and G-Dragon were still indulged in their 860Please respect copyright.PENANA6NuFf3uMZo
conversation.860Please respect copyright.PENANABhPCiGXaID
When I went back, I 860Please respect copyright.PENANAQ2H6u0w3FC
signalled to the others who were standing to sit down. When everyone on 860Please respect copyright.PENANAHIaz5bFsXm
the couch was settled, I cleared my throat so loud, hopeful that I 860Please respect copyright.PENANAlzY08xIKkF
caught Zoey and G-Dragon's attention.860Please respect copyright.PENANAlGLbkUsT42
"Ahem! So, we have to agree on who will sing the first verse," I said as I looked at the notebook.860Please respect copyright.PENANAwxuAb9gnTY
"I was thinking, G-Dragon and Zoey could start," said Daniel, as loud as he could.860Please respect copyright.PENANAxaMF1gb15G
"That's not really a bad idea." I nodded my head.860Please respect copyright.PENANAUnZQzqpmxr
"Hey, what's going on?" Zoey asked as she and G-Dragon turned to look at us.860Please respect copyright.PENANAtQTn4VzBMK
"Oh, you guys better come here because we're dividing the lyrics amongst ourselves," I said as I turned to look at the two.860Please respect copyright.PENANAyNb9BY08T7
"You should have told us," said G-Dragon.860Please respect copyright.PENANA7YyvK6OrPt
"Well, I didn't want to disturb you two. You looked really busy. And the two of you will be doing the first verse."860Please respect copyright.PENANAfvWHEcaoWo
G-Dragon gave me a weird860Please respect copyright.PENANAs4yMtcXPNx
look and all I could do was smirk at him. My plan had worked to get 860Please respect copyright.PENANAvunRH0vf2l
their attention. I went back to looking at the lyrics while he and Zoey 860Please respect copyright.PENANA5Gu8tTbF7Q
took their place on the couch.860Please respect copyright.PENANAH3Pjj8jAlG
"Christine and Daesung, I860Please respect copyright.PENANAu7BNfd8Mrb
think one of you could sing the bridge after the first verse and then 860Please respect copyright.PENANAsVQ3mum3Nx
the other on the second bridge after the second verse," I suggested.860Please respect copyright.PENANAIOMkdzg1su
"Then you and I will sing the chorus," said Taeyang.860Please respect copyright.PENANAsxCWVLZkUi
"Ya, we will sing the 860Please respect copyright.PENANA6whSSVy0Iq
chorus," I said. "And Seungri and Daniel will sing the last verse. So, 860Please respect copyright.PENANA5589Hy1nNT
now that we are done with all this, let me just give you guys a preview 860Please respect copyright.PENANAa8zV5zsQy3
of the song and how its supposed to be laid out. I hope the music 860Please respect copyright.PENANA4P3GowJyTz
producer has the lyrics printed out."860Please respect copyright.PENANAAT0LHDWZJ4
"He brought in the printed lyrics for each of us this morning," said TOP, his eyes on the table behind me.860Please respect copyright.PENANAFEOYRztROC
I looked behind me on the small table. I hadn't noticed the papers. I took them and gave each member a sheet.860Please respect copyright.PENANAUoQChQnzRf
Afterwards, I sang out the song so that everyone can have a layout on how it should be sung.860Please respect copyright.PENANAQUpjlCh2LM
Then we all went over 860Please respect copyright.PENANAYCyBbUxlIF
the console so that everyone could listen to the instrumental the music 860Please respect copyright.PENANAUcCiheduxv
producer had made with me and the others yesterday.860Please respect copyright.PENANA0xHX4n2jr2
"So, what do you think of the instrumental?" I asked after making them listen.860Please respect copyright.PENANALkPun0hlab
"So catchy," said Daniel. "I like it."860Please respect copyright.PENANAohVCY4EIYX
"Me too," said TOP.860Please respect copyright.PENANAIk1QWdoZoQ
"Then, let's get started," said Daesung.860Please respect copyright.PENANApQqyGA7saJ
"Wait, a minute," said G-Dragon and everyone turned to look at him.860Please respect copyright.PENANAyplBDjc20Q
I didn't look up at him 860Please respect copyright.PENANAXwYlmQHqcJ
though since I was the one seated at the console and everyone else stood860Please respect copyright.PENANAJMWEgKRzgJ
behind and beside me. All I did was just sit there and rub my forehead.860Please respect copyright.PENANAsvcRMp1ZgA
Something told me he was going to say something I wasn't ready to hear.860Please respect copyright.PENANAk5Wu1gInRs
"What's wrong, GD?" Christine asked. "Is there something wrong?"860Please respect copyright.PENANAyqFqgV66X7
I started to relax my 860Please respect copyright.PENANAyJddTAB0jY
temples with my fingers and my elbows leaning on the console. G-Dragon 860Please respect copyright.PENANAK15zBM9aiL
had paused for a while and I felt impatient.860Please respect copyright.PENANAfcMJeBmsK1
"The instrumental is okay and all, but I feel there is something missing."860Please respect copyright.PENANAvhcUJar3oa
"What's missing?" I asked as I turned around on the chair to look at G-Dragon.860Please respect copyright.PENANAkM02QmN46V
G-Dragon came to sit 860Please respect copyright.PENANA3gnHWdKQXD
next to the chair beside me and I wondered what was running in his mind.860Please respect copyright.PENANAAzKjox9hwj
The instrumental was just fine and it's not like we hadn't gone through860Please respect copyright.PENANADLHSWgJJjJ
it with the music producer yesterday. I wondered what had gotten into 860Please respect copyright.PENANAdu9xPjKjTz
him now. Everyone liked it. But what was wrong with it for him?860Please respect copyright.PENANAtsv9Bvxmkc
"I'll have to listen to this for a while and I'll tell what I think," said G-Dragon.860Please respect copyright.PENANAyd9m4Xr1R0
"Okay, suit yourself," I said as I backed away from the console dragging the chair behind me. I stood up.860Please respect copyright.PENANA1ax4R8cCFO
G-Dragon got the headphones and at the same time, the music producer came in the room.860Please respect copyright.PENANA4Pi9Ym71C4
"So, should we start putting in the lyrics into the song?" the music producer asked.860Please respect copyright.PENANAUkm5MnZin5
"We can't because G-Dragon here thinks the tune and melodies need a little changing," I said.860Please respect copyright.PENANAcG83LpQAGp
"Really?" the music producer asked.860Please respect copyright.PENANAeIOBKfA0qk
"Well, that's what he said," said Taeyang. "It all seems fine to me. I also don't see why it needs changing."860Please respect copyright.PENANAmqQXX0f1Sa
"Let's just see what he is going to come up with," I said as I folded my arms.860Please respect copyright.PENANAr7bVXIhLpr
"Give him a chance, 860Please respect copyright.PENANAVE5SsOTc4h
Sam," said Zoey as she sat next to G-Dragon who kept on listening to the860Please respect copyright.PENANA49gV7Lg4lf
instrumental through the headphones. She also got another pair of 860Please respect copyright.PENANAHKyMGsbMpS
headphones and put them on.860Please respect copyright.PENANANVcwo2942E
"Okay, this is 860Please respect copyright.PENANAtGsyLV77lT
confusing," said the music producer looking at all of us. "Let me also 860Please respect copyright.PENANAh74UHP29PH
join them and see what needs some changing."860Please respect copyright.PENANAPOIUWyChGN
I nodded and the music producer went over to join G-Dragon and Zoey.860Please respect copyright.PENANAhsgJ8TfaGv
"So what should we do now?" Seungri asked.860Please respect copyright.PENANAy97GJXcikr
"Chill, I guess," said Mike.860Please respect copyright.PENANADIUJq2sCDD
The others looked at me 860Please respect copyright.PENANAV4Hz0A7OWV
when I didn't say a word. They were all looking at me obviously thinking860Please respect copyright.PENANAK3QbK4lJ3R
I would come up with a better solution to all this just to pass time.860Please respect copyright.PENANAn8XYzLpBFJ
"To be honest, I don't know what we should do," I replied, shrugging my shoulders.860Please respect copyright.PENANAFubyntcDfm
"Why can't we just go through the song?" TOP asked.860Please respect copyright.PENANAUPYGYLd6jQ
"That's going to be a 860Please respect copyright.PENANAW74OHD9Ut1
problem." I rubbed the back of my neck. "The tune might change a little 860Please respect copyright.PENANAEHomTeCred
now that GD thinks it needs a little changing."860Please respect copyright.PENANAvTsAFqhJSh
"I doubt it," said Taeyang shaking his head. "We can still go through it. I don't think he can change the entire tune."860Please respect copyright.PENANAYbjSyOh0F5
Something told me he might but I didn't want to scare anyone so I kept that thought to myself.860Please respect copyright.PENANA6ahSXE9YWJ
"Okay let's go through the song," I said as everyone nodded their heads and sat on the couch and I went over to get the guitar.860Please respect copyright.PENANA6Sa1uE99Zc
I looked over at Zoey 860Please respect copyright.PENANARpmX2RMay0
and G-Dragon. I wondered if they would really change everything. I tried860Please respect copyright.PENANAVfT3jTB2Q0
to ignore the thought, and focused on the song.860Please respect copyright.PENANANaN3zp4Y3Y
I put a stool in front 860Please respect copyright.PENANAdKB7QYGPbl
of the others and I sat on it like I had yesterday. With the guitar in 860Please respect copyright.PENANAowDJfFIjBB
my hands, I started to play and I sang the song. After I sang it, 860Please respect copyright.PENANAtWYEpBOcOB
everyone admitted that the song was good and that made me realise about 860Please respect copyright.PENANATAkDphZhzN
what G-Dragon was up to. I tried not to look worried in front of the 860Please respect copyright.PENANAJMD95lqHxE
others.860Please respect copyright.PENANAZfuecSpZky
"Now, that we know how the song is supposed to flow, let's all sing out our parts," I said. Everyone agreed.860Please respect copyright.PENANAkOL5Yfny6j
Taeyang and I sung the 860Please respect copyright.PENANAjGVXz0B1ml
first verse since G-Dragon and Zoey were busy. Then Christine sung the 860Please respect copyright.PENANAdp9GczzgMN
bridge, Taeyang and I sung the chorus. From that point, the song sounded860Please respect copyright.PENANAD0bGmh58Bg
great and everyone cheered.860Please respect copyright.PENANA3ttw9dFMDs
"Wow, guys, this sounds awesome," said TOP.860Please respect copyright.PENANAJ65hMI8p79
"Mind blowing if you ask me," said Mike. "I can't wait for the second verse."860Please respect copyright.PENANArzvIeLdi1T
"Let's give it a go then," I said and I started to play the guitar.860Please respect copyright.PENANAoSKpXHxsSP
TOP started to rap the 860Please respect copyright.PENANAYx2dxzk1zJ
second verse and then Mike followed suit. It was going on great. And 860Please respect copyright.PENANAItawlsWCiF
while I played and the guys rapped everyone else on the couch was moving860Please respect copyright.PENANAuFsnF74ENZ
to the flow of the tune. I smiled. Everyone was having a good time.860Please respect copyright.PENANAnBMkoCDoRj
Daesung sung the bridge and then Taeyang and I sung the chorus again. This time even Christine joined in.860Please respect copyright.PENANArQM60mGSCB
"I'm impressed," I said. "You guys really did well on the second verse."860Please respect copyright.PENANAZFlhQ5vCOm
"Come on, now," said Seungri. "Daniel and I want to sing our part."860Please respect copyright.PENANAyazdHndSuS
"Okay, okay." I looked at Seungri with my hand raised to calm him down. "Before you eat me alive."860Please respect copyright.PENANACbF1nJ9Hcf
Daniel and Seungri sung 860Please respect copyright.PENANAx1KMqlumCG
the third verse beautifully, and coming to the bridge, Daesung and 860Please respect copyright.PENANADqYBxv3igG
Christine sung the bridge together. Taeyang and I sung the chorus. In 860Please respect copyright.PENANAjpWPSUsDtl
the end we all sang the chorus together. When we were done, everyone 860Please respect copyright.PENANAgndswcLStI
clapped for themselves and cheered.860Please respect copyright.PENANAAIZ88ylH7P
"That was lovely guys," I said as I smiled at the others.860Please respect copyright.PENANAtsyWxk6MDo
"That sounds really good," came Yang Hyun-suk's voice behind me.860Please respect copyright.PENANAWmZrU2SXjv
I almost fell off the 860Please respect copyright.PENANAbECaNH24eq
stool when I heard his voice. I was so caught up with the song that I 860Please respect copyright.PENANA18ppuqgm2U
hadn't noticed Yang Hyun-suk come in the room. By the look on the 860Please respect copyright.PENANAy1ErA7dJxt
other's faces, they hadn't noticed him either.860Please respect copyright.PENANA2RWjuW1Ftl
We all stood and bowed our heads as Yang Hyun-suk came closer to us.860Please respect copyright.PENANAv5F5i4hwKl
"I have to say, you all 860Please respect copyright.PENANAz3zcAO2qrW
sounded really good. The song is just perfect," said Yang Hyun-suk with a860Please respect copyright.PENANANVU5BBrSsl
smile. "Keep up the good work."860Please respect copyright.PENANA32rXd657aG
"Thank you," we all replied at the same time.860Please respect copyright.PENANAzkGpqMnNEO
"You're supposed to be in the live room recording the song," said Yang Hyun-suk. "Why aren't you doing so?"860Please respect copyright.PENANAe86iBZAIHD
No one said anything. We860Please respect copyright.PENANAw9k76Casod
all looked at each other expecting the other to say something. Most 860Please respect copyright.PENANAkgF4EmXNV8
eyes were on me though. I always hated it when I had to do all the 860Please respect copyright.PENANAZxzetMDfhg
talking.860Please respect copyright.PENANA2fFFLwuYK9
"Umm, G-Dragon wanted to add a few things to the instrumental," I said, not looking at the manager in the eye.860Please respect copyright.PENANAhwFfob7rzj
"Add a few things or change things?" Yang Hyun-suk asked, sternly.860Please respect copyright.PENANApT5z6YP8vM
That, I couldn't answer.860Please respect copyright.PENANAvpljI77Wp6
Looked like he also thought like I did. The only way to find out was to860Please respect copyright.PENANAbZKOkVYo5x
listen to the instrumental ourselves.860Please respect copyright.PENANAJdjUnZ4xPW
"He just said something was missing," said Taeyang.860Please respect copyright.PENANAVQgmHZ2kBe
"Then where is he then? Why isn't he here?" Yang Hyun-suk asked.860Please respect copyright.PENANA4Sp5IEmh5p
"He's right-" I turned around to the console. He and Zoey weren't there.860Please respect copyright.PENANA2IeuEmTtW9
"They were here a while ago," I said as I pointed at the audio machines and the multi track console.860Please respect copyright.PENANAE682fKUx9I
"They?" Yang Hyun-suk asked.860Please respect copyright.PENANADibFXeyeT2
"G-Dragon, Zoey and the music producer."860Please respect copyright.PENANAHrSjykAslL
The manager shook his head. He was obviously annoyed with all this.860Please respect copyright.PENANAaHLTXDz1zH
"I want them back here 860Please respect copyright.PENANAYcJJx4gbU0
right now," said Yang Hyun-suk. "I'll back in thirty minutes and if I 860Please respect copyright.PENANA8TF6C0oehV
don't find them here, you better have a good answer for all of this."860Please respect copyright.PENANAVyEVYrQyro
I gulped as I felt the 860Please respect copyright.PENANAoi9CZpisH2
air in the room change. He was furious all right. He was more furious 860Please respect copyright.PENANA8mVye7jSC7
because he feared that G-Dragon might change everything with the song. 860Please respect copyright.PENANAnYkK1JaAiK
And we only had thirty minutes to find them or else we were toast.860Please respect copyright.PENANAkTxTO4xRV9
No one said anything 860Please respect copyright.PENANAm1FLrzh2r9
when Yang Hyun-suk left the studio. And this time, I was furious. I 860Please respect copyright.PENANAKJ6DAmo6Rf
looked at the others and it looked like I wasn't the only one.860Please respect copyright.PENANAhLkG0J3tWN
"Where could they have 860Please respect copyright.PENANANcizPPbKHJ
gone all of the sudden?" Christine asked, her voice sounded like it was 860Please respect copyright.PENANAXrpTnSQqET
full of rage. "They were there the last time I checked."860Please respect copyright.PENANAOLYFXxlTqB
"They couldn't have gone far," said Daesung. "They must have been gone a few minutes."860Please respect copyright.PENANASZlsQHnl32
"Maybe they went out for lunch," said Mike as he looked at his wrist watch. "It's almost close to lunch time."860Please respect copyright.PENANAY0clK1Gyma
"They should have told us though," said Taeyang.860Please respect copyright.PENANAOmt6ybJ06A
"Then we better start 860Please respect copyright.PENANACMW4mIbKow
looking," I said. "I just hope they aren't out of the building or else 860Please respect copyright.PENANAUaWR50YHvu
looking for them will be difficult."860Please respect copyright.PENANARcx0SylwY7
We all agreed to split 860Please respect copyright.PENANAS6sNnc0hD8
up and look for them given the little time we had. I went with Christine860Please respect copyright.PENANA4nxwBVIXPc
and TOP looking around the other studio rooms, Mike and Daniel went 860Please respect copyright.PENANAJsipAMVbUQ
over to the dance studios. Taeyang, Seungri and Daesung went upstairs.860Please respect copyright.PENANA0VctNlc8kq
All the studio rooms 860Please respect copyright.PENANAqktCIcxUAz
were empty, so I went with Christine and TOP downstairs and asked the 860Please respect copyright.PENANAksBeVsOyhC
receptionist if she saw Zoey and G-Dragon go out.860Please respect copyright.PENANAHKroZRnxD7
"The two of them walked out just a while ago," the receptionist answered.860Please respect copyright.PENANA0guErb90Qe
I frowned and turned away from the receptionist while Christine asked, "how long ago was it?"860Please respect copyright.PENANAW5RBzWmAiz
"Almost fifteen minutes."860Please respect copyright.PENANASj6AQWSqMA
"Try and call them, will you?" I asked TOP.860Please respect copyright.PENANAGKZPl9bO8f
He nodded and pulled out860Please respect copyright.PENANAelpDqa1ZC3
his phone. At the same time, the elevator doors opened and my brothers 860Please respect copyright.PENANAnoTQXA210v
walked out of it and came towards us.860Please respect copyright.PENANAuvizLibnH6
"Anything?" Daniel asked.860Please respect copyright.PENANAWTbVZdAc8M
"They left the building," I answered with my hands on my hips. I looked over at TOP. "Have they picked up?"860Please respect copyright.PENANAbT74CUCSHO
"GD's phone keeps ringing and he isn't picking up," said TOP, with his phone on his ear.860Please respect copyright.PENANALmVpbYw3aq
"Let me try to call, Zoey," said Christine pulling out her phone.860Please respect copyright.PENANAgyAGPTfAo8
I looked at the time on my watch. We only had fifteen minutes and Yang Hyun-suk was going to kill us all if we didn't find them.860Please respect copyright.PENANAshaFRWIn57
"She isn't picking up either," said Christine.860Please respect copyright.PENANAs5UdAytDQv
"Great, these guys are going to get us into trouble," said Mike as he scratched his head.860Please respect copyright.PENANAfmeBLQF0ct
"If they just went for lunch they are bound to show up," said TOP.860Please respect copyright.PENANAGG5sU63abU
"Should we split up and look for them around town?" Daniel asked.860Please respect copyright.PENANAXQWFm0BzB3
"Splitting up will be risky now that Yang Hyun-suk is on our necks," said Christine.860Please respect copyright.PENANAE9krlsasNO
I hadn't said a word 860Please respect copyright.PENANA9mn7z2fYgB
when the elevator doors opened and Daesung came out. He had a really 860Please respect copyright.PENANAuFTs80OJPu
worried look on his face. He rushed up to us and I also couldn't help 860Please respect copyright.PENANAMOpfvR2hCR
but worry.860Please respect copyright.PENANAbYEVbKYiPe
"What is it, Daesung?" I asked. "Is there something wrong?"860Please respect copyright.PENANAJN5FowP08O
"We just met with the music producer upstairs," said Daesung. He shook his head. "You're not going to like this."860Please respect copyright.PENANAakHwLq47Ey
Daesung motioned his 860Please respect copyright.PENANA4RGUPftlPd
head towards the elevator. We followed him and we found ourselves back 860Please respect copyright.PENANAmJcdu0CZaF
at the studio. Taeyang and Seungri were with the music producer.860Please respect copyright.PENANAs4uPAwZAD2
"Please tell me G-Dragon didn't just change the entire tune for the song?" I asked when we got in the studio.860Please respect copyright.PENANAQYWqAIkFUU
Taeyang and the music 860Please respect copyright.PENANAJRHsjPoK1u
producer looked at each other with blank looks on their faces then 860Please respect copyright.PENANA9TW0dBnoU2
looked back at me. Seungri was looking at me the whole time. I was so 860Please respect copyright.PENANAiDDqmoCWL6
preoccupied in my mind, thinking of the worst, that I felt so confused 860Please respect copyright.PENANAIZYWCdJ1OQ
and angry at the same time.860Please respect copyright.PENANA4ws9JG3jSc
"It's best if you hear it for yourself," said Daesung.860Please respect copyright.PENANA56iHlEpa8f
I looked over at Daesung860Please respect copyright.PENANAw0wmlyLOKx
and made my way to the console where the music producer had his laptop 860Please respect copyright.PENANAyErBfJmnZq
open for me. I sat down and preparing myself for the worst, I pressed 860Please respect copyright.PENANA7Q1K2Aj6iP
the play button.860Please respect copyright.PENANA13CyMu6C9W
***860Please respect copyright.PENANAAG1lGQ5aeM
"Where are they?" came Yang Hyun-suk's voice from the door.860Please respect copyright.PENANArBCU6G9ryR
I came crushing back 860Please respect copyright.PENANAE6QrthqzLH
down to reality by the harsh sound of the manager's voice. I was on the 860Please respect copyright.PENANAd0mU3NpLlO
couch with the rest of the others and I had been brooding for a while.860Please respect copyright.PENANAY1kxWjG9u8
I had so many mixed 860Please respect copyright.PENANALuAvlODuzb
feelings inside after listening to the instrumental G-Dragon had made. 860Please respect copyright.PENANA8pbPEQSISt
He had completely changed everything and that made me so upset. After 860Please respect copyright.PENANAiDORXlmNho
all the work I had put in with the others yesterday and this is what I 860Please respect copyright.PENANA7szLQK0lrZ
get in return? I was speechless. So were the others.860Please respect copyright.PENANAvPwdQDNbBl
I could tell that the 860Please respect copyright.PENANAD0HdlWCHlK
others were as confused and wondering why G-Dragon had done all this. 860Please respect copyright.PENANAvPNrBFeaah
But I was confused with a mixture of rage. I worked so hard on that 860Please respect copyright.PENANAEcl2fFs5Yv
track and I felt everything just went down the drain.860Please respect copyright.PENANAvLjeBWJTnU
"Isn't anyone going to answer me?" Yang Hyun-suk asked.860Please respect copyright.PENANAr3VEO1VDgX
"They aren't here," Daniel answered.860Please respect copyright.PENANAE9AJBzsdBh
"It looks like they had gone out for lunch," said Taeyang.860Please respect copyright.PENANAwFDMd3DRuy
"They went out without taking you guys along?"860Please respect copyright.PENANAktG2847Vjj
I folded my arms and 860Please respect copyright.PENANA8xWT20O53k
huffed. It looked like they did, alright. And if they made sure as to 860Please respect copyright.PENANAqhbX41792e
come back here, I was going to skin them alive.860Please respect copyright.PENANAUb5WGFntWb
"Maybe they must have gone to order us some lunch as well," said Christine.860Please respect copyright.PENANA4f5sV1IfPy
"Well, they are taking a lot of time to get here," said Yang Hyun-suk. "What about the instrumental? Did they change anything?"860Please respect copyright.PENANABHDga8jBJc
I could feel Christine who sat next to me stiffen by the question and I could imagine the others stiffen too.860Please respect copyright.PENANAYVYrWiehGa
"Well...eh," Mike started to talk but I intervened.860Please respect copyright.PENANAXO4K1aHtvz
"No, we haven't heard it yet."860Please respect copyright.PENANAAZ6pkRtZ2o
I could feel the others 860Please respect copyright.PENANANVURHt8l1i
turn to me with weird looks on their faces. I knew lying wasn't the 860Please respect copyright.PENANA6Cqwy8UjaI
right thing to do at this moment, but the music producer's laptop wasn't860Please respect copyright.PENANAXLSbjMpf5G
here and I had the USB drive where the instrumental was. And besides, 860Please respect copyright.PENANAZ2oDKQHfVs
Yang Hyun-suk was going to be furious. I had to know what the heck was 860Please respect copyright.PENANAEPh4bIpIk6
going on in G-Dragon's mind before telling our managers anything.860Please respect copyright.PENANA6mJD7IKi3U
"Oh, hopefully they haven't changed anything," said Yang Hyun-suk. "Call me when they get here."860Please respect copyright.PENANAcQaNamtb7I
"Okay." I nodded my head.860Please respect copyright.PENANAhOJk8hWpAP
When Yang Hyun-suk left,860Please respect copyright.PENANAdVHppndvGw
Seungri came over to me in a quick flash. He scared me by his sudden 860Please respect copyright.PENANAPRJTlTuxGf
approach. He looked down on me with a look on his face.860Please respect copyright.PENANApkSCpLJVpW
"What did you just do?" Seungri asked. His voice almost turned into a shriek.860Please respect copyright.PENANAdVJYISop0J
"You know what I did," I answered, my arms still remained folded as I looked up at him. "I lied."860Please respect copyright.PENANAcxX6Y7f02I
"But why?" Christine turned to look at me fully in the face. "We're going to get into serious trouble."860Please respect copyright.PENANA0IbzE4rkyD
"Not until I hear what 860Please respect copyright.PENANAqmuy5GnaBB
GD has to say." I looked at Christine and I could tell on her face that I860Please respect copyright.PENANAKjAImc02lA
sounded a bit harsh towards her. I closed my eyes and took a breath, 860Please respect copyright.PENANAct9TiM2Qlq
trying to calm down.860Please respect copyright.PENANABevZlh29Fj
"Sorry, I didn't mean to sound harsh," I said as I looked at her.860Please respect copyright.PENANAb6IjvuvJe6
"I know. But you shouldn't have lied, Sam."860Please respect copyright.PENANAUVjilizSTO
"So that we could get 860Please respect copyright.PENANAiX8BEnaA8B
Zoey and G-Dragon into trouble? The reason why I did this is because I 860Please respect copyright.PENANACKV9sMSU76
want to know for myself why GD changed everything. If we told Yang 860Please respect copyright.PENANAC65yKra2ZY
Hyun-suk, I wouldn't have known for myself."860Please respect copyright.PENANAmsNNzhyoCi
"I agree with Sam," said860Please respect copyright.PENANAJikkB4aXMN
TOP. "We the group members have to know what's going on first. Getting 860Please respect copyright.PENANAwymsmECRxq
Yang Hyun-suk angry won't be good for all of us and you know it."860Please respect copyright.PENANAkgIExq5aKt
"So we just sit here and wait for them?" Mike asked.860Please respect copyright.PENANA9EmKYgNdvE
"Do we have a choice?" I asked as I looked out the window.860Please respect copyright.PENANAw55OX50o3l
The rest of the 860Please respect copyright.PENANAiyBuA922TB
afternoon was quiet and boring. I was just on the couch looking out the 860Please respect copyright.PENANAZyFL4fhCry
window, while the others were now on the floor sitting in a circle 860Please respect copyright.PENANA9i5M1dHHrU
playing cards.860Please respect copyright.PENANAIrxhEeN5kn
I was leaning my chin on860Please respect copyright.PENANAz1OxikWDc9
the armchair and my legs were up on the couch. I sighed sadly. I still 860Please respect copyright.PENANAN0JW8yo62k
felt so bad about the song and I wondered why all this was happening, 860Please respect copyright.PENANAEZ1X188FtY
especially to me.860Please respect copyright.PENANA85I2DEL7Zh
Did he do all this because of what happened with TOP the other day?860Please respect copyright.PENANA8BNHVmQECc
I suddenly sat upright 860Please respect copyright.PENANARuasahR6TT
when I realised something. Hadn't he told Zoey that he liked her? If he 860Please respect copyright.PENANAnyjXnfnsj6
really did like Zoey from the beginning, then why was he acting like a 860Please respect copyright.PENANANFpwQbhX3z
jealous prick the other day? Was he trying to get back at me not just by860Please respect copyright.PENANAdj4pFJ8toO
ruining the track but also by hanging out with Zoey?860Please respect copyright.PENANAWLp9fhV657
"Hey, Sam, are you okay?" Daesung asked as he looked at me. "You look like you have seen a ghost."860Please respect copyright.PENANAj6Th4jRMrV
"I...eh.." I tucked a strand of hair behind my ear. "Nothing. Just realised something."860Please respect copyright.PENANAA5Np9r8eQu
"That you're hungry," said Seungri, looking at his cards in his hands. "I'm also hungry."860Please respect copyright.PENANAgA2hDNwWXA
"But we can't go out and order lunch," said Mike. "I feel Yang Hyun-suk's eyes are everywhere now apart from here."860Please respect copyright.PENANAFCJmAFomar
"Maybe we can just order860Please respect copyright.PENANAHObGroNOpv
a pizza and tell the receptionist to come here without raising any 860Please respect copyright.PENANADPa2mQxSbF
suspicion to Yang Hyun-suk," said Daniel.860Please respect copyright.PENANAlXIXTefkt6
"Good idea," said TOP. "Let me tell her right now." He pulled out his phone and just when he was about to call, Lee came in.860Please respect copyright.PENANAyL4wIVDs9K
"Hey, guys," said Lee carrying three boxes of pizza in her hands.860Please respect copyright.PENANA92s2NT2aKF
"Finally, food!" Christine exclaimed as she got up from the floor and ran over to Lee to help with the boxes.860Please respect copyright.PENANAMXHiujSk36
"I heard that Zoey and 860Please respect copyright.PENANA94WB2Q2Bu7
G-Dragon had left," said Lee. "Yang Hyun-suk told me and he is watching 860Please respect copyright.PENANATwxqgtH5pb
out of his office window for them like a hawk."860Please respect copyright.PENANA3udMi8RGa1
"I knew it," said Mike. "I knew he was watching."860Please respect copyright.PENANAEVeHvRxVGE
"Then it's a good thing 860Please respect copyright.PENANAygF7mbOyFH
Sam texted me a while ago," said Lee. "I had to find a way to sneak in 860Please respect copyright.PENANABa8dwjG780
the pizza. That's why I took forever to get here."860Please respect copyright.PENANAnSe1BIFGXd
Daniel came over to hug me. "Thanks, sis. I don't know what we would have done without you. I was starving."860Please respect copyright.PENANA8g8awXkHQg
"Ya, I know," I said. "We better eat quickly before the managers get here."860Please respect copyright.PENANAQZ0jVhlml8
Everyone soon dropped 860Please respect copyright.PENANAiLJFdWaJu4
their cards and went over to the table started to dig in as soon as one 860Please respect copyright.PENANArsEfLGPOGJ
of the pizza boxes was laid on the table and Lee opened it.860Please respect copyright.PENANAKsb2ObUUfX
I had never eaten pizza 860Please respect copyright.PENANAZVcGl5OR4W
so fast and it had never tasted so good in my mouth. Maybe it's because 860Please respect copyright.PENANAxqeUOIdkwl
despite all the anger bottled up inside me, I was as hungry as hell.860Please respect copyright.PENANAUtWCKv0KVl
We were done finishing 860Please respect copyright.PENANAkvSuSlshIl
the second box of pizza when Lee asked, "I heard G-Dragon changed the 860Please respect copyright.PENANAJnu6gmQ1SJ
instrumental for the song, is that true?"860Please respect copyright.PENANAtslYXyuhfh
"Well, ya," I said with my mouth full of pizza. The pizza was so good.860Please respect copyright.PENANAKo3giHHHfh
"He changed it for real?" Lee sounded surprised. "But Yang Hyun-suk said you haven't heard it yet."860Please respect copyright.PENANAd2Ud5o364U
We were huddled up on 860Please respect copyright.PENANAq15x1Ey4VT
the floor around the table eating our pizza and we had soon stopped 860Please respect copyright.PENANA9JDvtrhvlQ
eating and looked at Lee who was seated on the couch.860Please respect copyright.PENANAMnj4mjBrcM
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Lee asked.860Please respect copyright.PENANAbgAZWOwdYM
"We actually lied," said Taeyang.860Please respect copyright.PENANAQvKnHzCbfV
"You lied? About what?"860Please respect copyright.PENANATTb7EoFQ9t
"I told the manager that we hadn't heard the instrumental," I said.860Please respect copyright.PENANA8rBkwmAUxy
"But why?"860Please respect copyright.PENANAmgzWGljHFD
"Because, I had no choice. I want to know why GD did this. It's best we know and see how we can move forward."860Please respect copyright.PENANAwCs0JIsTFc
I finished my slice of pizza and licked my fingers when Lee asked, "don't you think he just did that to get back at you, Sam?"860Please respect copyright.PENANAAJfXuiIqyr
I didn't expect Lee to 860Please respect copyright.PENANABLkpyehpoT
say that in front of everyone. I felt time I had stood still and all 860Please respect copyright.PENANAh83L05hSRW
eyes were on me now. I looked away without saying a word.860Please respect copyright.PENANAomg26EOxPE
"What does she mean by that, Sam?" Daesung asked.860Please respect copyright.PENANA7viF4rdiBU
"Please, tell us," said Christine. "What is it with you and GD? Are you two still fighting?"860Please respect copyright.PENANAhOamZHkmGV
I sighed as looked up at the ceiling still without saying a word. I didn't know how I was going to tell them.860Please respect copyright.PENANA8Al9bVrdU9
"I thought that argument ended a long time ago," said Daniel. "Or did something else happen?"860Please respect copyright.PENANATslW13RUF1
I stood up from the 860Please respect copyright.PENANAeo6SNkvgVC
floor and walked over to the window. The day was so bright and warm but 860Please respect copyright.PENANAmsNO7PmSOG
yet I felt so cold and gloomy. I knew this day would come sooner or 860Please respect copyright.PENANA1vFQdfecQS
later.860Please respect copyright.PENANATggjTnvAhm
Trying to find the right860Please respect copyright.PENANAB0xDWlrOiu
words to say was a lot harder than I thought. What was I going to say? 860Please respect copyright.PENANA1Rh4tRwMbu
To me, all this was confusing. I knew GD was still mad at me, but for 860Please respect copyright.PENANAnFDr8l5bin
what for, was the question in mind.860Please respect copyright.PENANAn9cUHt7JIW
"Aren't you going to 860Please respect copyright.PENANAE27m0F2B5M
tell us?" Mike asked as I realised that he was standing next to me. "Is 860Please respect copyright.PENANAdPN5wE0wtN
he still mad about who had to write the lyrics for the song?"860Please respect copyright.PENANA1kFsg1XCR6
"I doubt it," said TOP. "I was here with them when they were writing the lyrics and the two of them looked fine to me."860Please respect copyright.PENANAHfn1ZLW3Yx
"Please, tell us what's going on?" Taeyang asked. "Lee, do you know something?"860Please respect copyright.PENANAfu7syzEC24
I looked at Lee and she was looking back at me with a scared look on her face. Using my eyes, I told her not to say a word.860Please respect copyright.PENANABgVktaTqDe
Lee went on to look at 860Please respect copyright.PENANAXJAj4uOjSw
Taeyang and shook her head. "I've no clue. I didn't mean to say that. I 860Please respect copyright.PENANA78gG5gg9Y3
just thought they might be arguing again."860Please respect copyright.PENANASexLQVaEin
"And it looks like it too," said Daniel, giving me an eye.860Please respect copyright.PENANANAiwnNpxIh
"Aren't you going to say anything, Sam?" Seungri asked.860Please respect copyright.PENANAxz8G3ONVpH
"I don't even know what 860Please respect copyright.PENANAlTui55lSGp
to say to you at this point," I said, turning back to face the window 860Please respect copyright.PENANAFmaEIYjKLe
and I saw G-Dragon's car pull into the premises. Mike also saw it too.860Please respect copyright.PENANAMxMeqk3i8Z
"They are here," Mike announced to the others.860Please respect copyright.PENANAuqw2CcOyXn
No one said a word. The room had too much tension already, it was best not to say a word.860Please respect copyright.PENANAAiHVG1jsbs
"I better call Yang Hyun-suk," said Lee.860Please respect copyright.PENANAg212j5vxOs
"No, not yet," I said, before Lee could stand up from the couch. "Wait until Zoey and G-Dragon get in here."860Please respect copyright.PENANAFs0vhc5Ap6
Lee just nodded her head and I went back to looking through the window down at the car park.860Please respect copyright.PENANAaj3XUkij8X
It only took five 860Please respect copyright.PENANAUn18hb0PZO
minutes for Zoey and G-Dragon to get to the studio. They came in talking860Please respect copyright.PENANAOUOWOZ2Qb5
and laughing. Well, that happiness was going to end soon. Not when you 860Please respect copyright.PENANAgGLJW5tQk9
see your group members are all upset and gloomy.860Please respect copyright.PENANAWp7MfBYb5l
"Hey, guys!" Zoey said cheerfully as she came in with G-Dragon behind her.860Please respect copyright.PENANAX7mnM88Nav
When no one said anything back, Zoey's mood also changed. "What's with the long faces?"860Please respect copyright.PENANAeVMq3OYsVR
Still, no one said anything. It looked like no one was ready to throw the dice first. I cleared my throat and looked at Lee.860Please respect copyright.PENANA16jI5rTiSt
"You can call Yang Hyun-suk for us," I said.860Please respect copyright.PENANAhPcJ4vSZb9
"Okay." Lee got up from the couch and bypassed Zoey and G-Dragon going through the door.860Please respect copyright.PENANAHPNRQl3iSJ
"Aren't you going to say what's wrong with you guys?" G-Dragon asked.860Please respect copyright.PENANAVzwbXZ3sVK
"Where were you?" I asked as I slowly started to approach them.860Please respect copyright.PENANABbe3Xlksay
"We went out," Zoey answered. "Are we in trouble with Yang Hyun-suk?"860Please respect copyright.PENANA15MU8Wf7El
"Not just with him but also with me, a lot of us too," I said motioning to the other group members in the room.860Please respect copyright.PENANAV1wrb9fFpx
"What? Are you mad we left without telling you?" G-Dragon asked.860Please respect copyright.PENANAK9mvjrtxIc
"No." I now turned to look at G-Dragon. "It's about the instrumental. You changed absolutely everything."860Please respect copyright.PENANANC7HACKISr
I tried to keep my tone down and my anger in check but I was boiling inside. Any minute now, I might just blow my head off.860Please respect copyright.PENANApfbCNNFmAe
I was expecting an answer from G-Dragon but all he did was look at me. I kept on coming closer, my eyes not leaving his.860Please respect copyright.PENANANrUVW4weQB
"Why did you this?" I asked.860Please respect copyright.PENANA1rBegPV1A6
"I didn't like the first one you made," he said, clearly with no emotion in his voice.860Please respect copyright.PENANAoIYtMl7G2V
"If you didn't like it, you should have just said so and all of us together would have figured something out. Not what you did."860Please respect copyright.PENANAZcOKf2J37N
When I got closer to them, I took out the USB drive from my pocket. I took G-Dragon's right hand and placed it in his open palm.860Please respect copyright.PENANAxWykM8InfD
"The instrumental is in 860Please respect copyright.PENANAN24vd2bs7q
there," I said as I slowly looked up at G-Dragon. "When Yang Hyun-suk 860Please respect copyright.PENANAJJdPWl7Iw9
came to hear it, I told him that we ourselves haven't heard it. I did 860Please respect copyright.PENANAAXa8mDup6i
this so I can get the explanation out of you. But we're running out of 860Please respect copyright.PENANAt5aEMzeNNF
time and he will be here any moment. It's up to you to give it to him 860Please respect copyright.PENANAQ5rgeCzr7C
and let him hear it for himself. But let me remind you, he is already 860Please respect copyright.PENANASfGkkXgSoP
pissed."860Please respect copyright.PENANA0lEqknTz9U
"Wait, a minute," said Taeyang as he came up right behind me. "He first has to tell us what's happening between the two of you."860Please respect copyright.PENANAxkAWvSIr3w
"We don't have time, Tae," I turned to look at him.860Please respect copyright.PENANAhBqCFj4FjL
"What is going on?" Zoey asked. "Are you and GD still not on good terms?"860Please respect copyright.PENANASiuzrpLK1n
I looked at Zoey and she860Please respect copyright.PENANAZCDNEv0dco
was as confused as ever. How I wish I could tell everyone but I didn't 860Please respect copyright.PENANAGs19kq7PnH
know where I stand with G-Dragon. I still couldn't tell why and what he 860Please respect copyright.PENANAAUHwH3Br52
was mad at me for.860Please respect copyright.PENANAlXixEtSQSr
"Now is not the right 860Please respect copyright.PENANAkF19Z0GJzG
time," I said as I went over to the couch and sat down. All eyes were on860Please respect copyright.PENANAENqkOiAKTC
me now and I knew everyone was confused, but later on, they would 860Please respect copyright.PENANAXhqdbfVMFq
understand.860Please respect copyright.PENANAoNDGjYZ2Ta
Yang Hyun-suk, Collins 860Please respect copyright.PENANAO3SF7IhDh1
and Lee came in seconds later. I could tell a lot of people felt 860Please respect copyright.PENANAs28HI6lo64
uncomfortable when they came in. I didn't. I just wanted to see whether 860Please respect copyright.PENANAQXGgxfShqn
G-Dragon would give away the USB drive or not.860Please respect copyright.PENANAdmZVjiu9bu
"It's about time you guys got here," said Yang Hyun-suk as he turned towards Zoey and G-Dragon. "Hope you had a perfect lunch."860Please respect copyright.PENANALNKKeQYBDx
I almost smirked but kept my cool when Zoey said, "yes, we did."860Please respect copyright.PENANAIR87ooZGPg
"But did you manage to order lunch for your friends too?"860Please respect copyright.PENANA9224iHntUw
Zoey and G-Dragon paused. They obviously weren't expecting that. I had to step in and say something.860Please respect copyright.PENANARlhQ7gFxT5
"They did. They brought us pizza," I pointed at the three boxes of pizza on the table. We had only finished two boxes.860Please respect copyright.PENANApCVZsnvY5r
"You guys were pretty hungry, weren't you?" Collins asked, looking surprised that two boxes were already empty.860Please respect copyright.PENANA6qhQQtErCQ
"Ya, we were," said Mike as he opened the other box of pizza and the rest of us still eating dug in.860Please respect copyright.PENANAjjlPUrqm30
"So," Yang Hyun-suk looked away from us facing Zoey and G-Dragon. "Did you change anything with the instrumental or what?"860Please respect copyright.PENANAomVuidF2G3
I paused with my mouth 860Please respect copyright.PENANAtSgCOdZD5c
open ready to bite another piece out of my slice. I looked on at what 860Please respect copyright.PENANANMpVvJYiqW
was happening in front of me. I just hoped G-Dragon wasn't going to give860Please respect copyright.PENANAlECb2ojlJI
Yang Hyun-suk the USB drive.860Please respect copyright.PENANAigIL2f4v0x
I looked at G-Dragon and860Please respect copyright.PENANAVtUMsYzCmt
noticed that he still had the USB enclosed in his hand. I looked at his860Please respect copyright.PENANASRI7FvaYh0
face wondering what he was thinking.860Please respect copyright.PENANAwVej1ys1CW
"Do you think he will give away the USB?" Seungri asked as he whispered in my ear.860Please respect copyright.PENANADsdV4dzofE
"Hopefully not," I whispered back. I even had my fingers crossed.860Please respect copyright.PENANAcJsLPbwaoM
"No, we didn't change anything," said G-Dragon.860Please respect copyright.PENANAtfjRRQEYJM
I smiled and Seungri 860Please respect copyright.PENANAe7XAKZv4m4
held his breath and let out a sigh of relief. The rest of us on the 860Please respect copyright.PENANAIQPqjwq2U5
couch seemed to have relaxed. Luckily, the managers hadn't read our body860Please respect copyright.PENANAVAefXjOh0p
language. They didn't even look at us. But Lee did.860Please respect copyright.PENANAGC2yoNubit
"Thank goodness," said Yang Hyun-suk. "I thought you did. I'm glad you didn't."860Please respect copyright.PENANAK6H1Zl0TWN
I smiled a little more. 860Please respect copyright.PENANAzqUocfh53l
G-Dragon did the right thing which I knew he would do. But the problem 860Please respect copyright.PENANA5LhV8Dfmrg
was far from over though. Now that our group members knew that he and I 860Please respect copyright.PENANAXSxUHmk4uK
were at war again.860Please respect copyright.PENANAHrJyTYFGzw
"But we can't start 860Please respect copyright.PENANAB8ziSBMFv7
recording the track now," said Collins. "It's a little late so they 860Please respect copyright.PENANAGBDlZAVFtQ
would have to do it the day after tomorrow."860Please respect copyright.PENANA40ceNnPMhs
I sat upright and alert.860Please respect copyright.PENANA8u5NRBLQ1W
"The day after tomorrow? What are we doing tomorrow that we possibly 860Please respect copyright.PENANAR0Q0iSbngz
have to record the track the day after?"860Please respect copyright.PENANAgjjxT2MeXt
"Well, Sam," said Yang Hyun-suk turned to look at me. "The Toxins are going to have a TV interview tomorrow."860Please respect copyright.PENANAFEsC2BvCdN
"An interview?" Christine was the one who looked more surprised.860Please respect copyright.PENANAIHgtKoeZu4
"But why didn't you tell860Please respect copyright.PENANAfdva1ciuoo
us earlier?" I asked as I looked at Collins who smiled back at me. It 860Please respect copyright.PENANAPzvGfwNiDV
was then that it hit me and things became clear.860Please respect copyright.PENANAyDHqNsNhQm
"Is that the surprise you were talking about yesterday?" I asked.860Please respect copyright.PENANAD3CPxH8M6b
"Yep," said Collins as he grinned.860Please respect copyright.PENANAI466brFYLp
"This is one heck of a surprise, alright," said Zoey folding her arms.860Please respect copyright.PENANAo1PDHT6oTk
"Well, played," I muttered to myself as I looked away.860Please respect copyright.PENANAa78qTvxPiC
"So, before the day ends, we better go get ready," said Collins. "You will also have to perform during the interview too."860Please respect copyright.PENANAdFawObSlx4
"This just keeps on getting better," said Daniel, rolling his eyes.860Please respect copyright.PENANAVlF32zlkCj
"What are we waiting for? Let's go," said Collins. "We don't have enough time in our hands."860Please respect copyright.PENANALVLSMOeDBm
"You should have told us earlier, you know?" Mike said, as we the Toxins stood up to leave.860Please respect copyright.PENANAMwQ5amuHV2
"Then you should have thought twice before you all decided to leave for Paris."860Please respect copyright.PENANAQw2m4mvwQw
It was then that the other Toxins realised that all this was payback. I wasn't surprised. I already knew.860Please respect copyright.PENANA5i86oc3SOZ
The two managers and Lee went out of the room first. Just as we were about to walk out, TOP stopped me by holding my hand.860Please respect copyright.PENANAFStVZ4jApq
I turned to look at him 860Please respect copyright.PENANATHI6b40nnb
and he had stood up from the couch, looking straight at me. I blushed 860Please respect copyright.PENANALIWzmyNbRK
and looked down at my feet. He always made me nervous when he looked at 860Please respect copyright.PENANAHEircdrEbB
me like that.860Please respect copyright.PENANAbiHByfPjW1
"We might have gotten away from our managers' fury today," said TOP. "But you and GD have a lot of explaining to do."860Please respect copyright.PENANAAuZmu7SxOm
"I know," I said as I turned to look at G-Dragon, who quickly looked away.860Please respect copyright.PENANAG8S518QLxX
"Ya, a lot," said Daesung as he nodded his head. I could see he was trying to ignore that TOP was holding my hand.860Please respect copyright.PENANA7u4i8tNhwa
"And don't try to come up with any excuses," said Taeyang.860Please respect copyright.PENANAX0jw45oyS7
"Don't worry, I won't," I promised. I just hoped G-Dragon wouldn't.860Please respect copyright.PENANAFxiE9LpFhS
Zoey and the others left the room and I was the last to walk out. I didn't want to look at G-Dragon, but I did.860Please respect copyright.PENANAv4a0I6yCDx
We looked at each other 860Please respect copyright.PENANA9NmPpxyg5f
for a while and I didn't know what I felt for him anymore. Maybe I was a860Please respect copyright.PENANAd2qWHql7Tp
little hurt, but I was also so confused. I don't know. I couldn't tell.860Please respect copyright.PENANASp9QCGuJ9A
Maybe he also felt the same.860Please respect copyright.PENANACdGY3fMFnL
