The water felt like a 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBaENwWip9P
safe haven and I didn't want to get out. For some reason, it felt so 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsjnvyXWa0a
warm and nice. I didn't want to go above the surface and face all the 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNT6J5wS4er
troubles out there. But I couldn't stay in water forever. That's 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ynNLFNkZb
obvious. I didn't want to die in here and sooner or later, I had to 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoAC2IJvziB
breathe. 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvA2j6sK0N
I pushed myself upwards 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA9ybG4nXZS
and my head stuck out of the water's surface. I took in a deep breath of1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4QJXVaWJaw
fresh air and I shook my head to shake the water out of my eyes. I 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKCb8pWDNJw
opened my eyes fully and as I looked around the pool, I swam to the 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHIfaVGJmY
edge.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpYczsGy1sG
When I finally got myself out, I saw Hyo-rin, Seungri and TOP run towards me. Taeyang and Daesung also appeared.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBR6gch3H94
"Sam, are you okay?" Hyo-rin asked, when she got closer.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxdnnlUlrY
"I've never been better," I answered as I looked at myself.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS05EkyFmQQ
I looked ridiculously 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAAIe09rbBz
wet, that's for sure. My clothes felt so heavy. I pulled out my phone 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGc7g0mz0ux
from the pocket and it was all wet and ruined. I sucked my teeth in 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdw6KCykEKv
irritation. So much for having a cool fancy iPhone only to find it 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVNBwfMiJC
taking a dive with you into the water. I put my phone back in my wet 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYPKB4xLVq
pocket. My day couldn't get any better than this.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZyCWHOd2XA
I looked around me and 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvi7ew5Yr09
luckily, the little drama I had had with G-Dragon at the top of the 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY260FjXJxY
rocks, hadn't caught so many people's attention, but only to a few of 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTExPwAzAXL
those who were in the same pool I had fallen in. That was a relief. The 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKotx7A0kl
last thing I wanted was to look embarrassed in front of the whole world.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡreQiG0RItt
"You need a towel," said TOP. "You're soaking wet, and you need a change of clothes too."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQw3WOo4bUY
"No need," I said as I started to remove my wet sneakers and water poured out of them. "We've to go."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxW9PBxU6XA
I heard Zoey and the 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bC3w0kJQe
others' laughter and cheering on the other side of the pool. I looked on1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu2eiflYfGG
and I saw the others approach G-Dragon after he climbed down the rocks.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBc9Y2L3S3
They surrounded and cheered for him as though he was a hero. 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwuoAzrLeKK
"Sam?" I heard Taeyang's1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhnswQu9Rf
voice as he held my shoulder. "You don't look okay at all. And you 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3x7WZPmlNp
really need a change of clothes or else you're going to catch a cold."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWLDkBsvXJ4
"I already told you, I'm1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzFjkcDOmtm
fine," I said as I slowly brushed off Taeyang's hand from my shoulder. I1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpIonsoO3u
didn't want to be rude, but I was so not in the mood for consolation 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7bB45Y5ES
from anyone.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJa3j3GQScM
I made my way towards GD1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2qevqIyQY
and the others, while they were chattering on with excitement over what1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPZ8HQAeBL
had happened. Hyo-rin and the rest followed behind me. As the Toxins 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDjaFPqkPA
and G-Dragon saw me approach them, Zoey came forward.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShtQ7b1N4T
"Oh, man, Sam," said 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbF10wF5thS
Zoey, with a ridiculous smile on her face. "You should really see 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ykYYItuFE
yourself. Sorry for all that, but we had to add a little spice to the 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXw1uxBCfTK
game. Hope you didn't mind."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5zuWzhnz7
"Can we just go back to YG?" I asked, with no hint of emotion on my face. "I've had a long day."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnyyQMRRJIg
"Go back to YG?" Zoey asked with a surprised look on her face. "I thought we were going back to the hotel."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9GMN968ls
"I told you, our 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQt5PStakrw
managers need us back there. And as usual, you never listen to me." I 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ZCtcm68r3
rolled my eyes as I soon remembered something. "Speaking of our 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7id13qExjw
managers, Daesung, may I use your phone, please?" I looked over at 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxOzwgLCGRe
Daesung.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTGfVw9Rs8
"Ya, sure," said Daesung, as he gave it to me.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNsABA3EMa
I dialled Lee's number 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBUTM3b17JW
and I placed the phone to my ear. The Toxins and G-Dragon looked on at 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2fW2JTKRZd
me, clueless. They were obviously wondering why I was making a call. 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ZB63i64Rc
They would know soon enough.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwG309jGx1C
"Hello?" came Lee's voice at the other end of the line.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPDUqGjkJO
"Lee, it's Sam," I answered.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo9hJGGKwBK
"Sam, thank goodness, you called. Did you find them?"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2oD9jcejlP
"Ya, I found them," I said, as I looked on at the culprits in front of me. "Do our managers know anything?"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgng1upEFOB
"No, not yet. But you 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOD7OlAzPH
better get back here quick. I can't keep them locked up much longer. And1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPTIGk5gNp
the press have been waiting for you, so you better hurry."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEkikQXK5Km
"We'll be there in thirty minutes."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1VSVDkqwiU
"Okay, I'll be waiting."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWCsNRTvWn
I cut the call and gave Daesung his phone back.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBmQu82pUy
"Wait, Sam, what's going on?" Daniel asked. "Why were you talking to Lee? Is something wrong?"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZfsCpHc1F
"Everything is wrong," I answered, trying to keep my cool. "I'll tell you later. We better go now."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9GeAs4U9a
"At least tell us what's going on," said Christine. 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCMjk4wptnw
"It's best we get to YG first," said Seungri. "We're wasting a lot of time here."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZYI5DY8KX
"Come on. You heard Seungri, we don't have much time," I said.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiGqKkhY1Fw
"But you better change your clothes first," said Zoey. "You know you easily catch a cold. At least get a towel to dry yourself."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXJ2plR2dR
I shook my head. I was 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37Ia2tmdhh
really on the edge of losing my temper. But I quickly took in a deep 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkmmg8IukM
breath and started to walk away from the pool and the others in my bare 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwx0GT8zRdj
wet feet and carrying my wet sneakers.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNxLxGVVQ8
After walking a few feet1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqV2AZgNrE
away, I looked behind me and the others just stared at me, with 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdXa5Rj5L5K
surprised and confused looks on their faces. The last thing I wanted was1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDHVFtsr4K
for them to just stand there because they would end up grabbing other 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbyQOnU1jQZ
people's attention which I was highly trying to avoid.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2902FoTgXz
"Aren't you coming or are you going to run off so that I go looking for you again?" I asked.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwt4AhxtqDI
None of them answered as1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtu55EoqBn
they all started walking towards me and walked past heading for the 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNcTJVOaDn
exit. I stayed for a few minutes from where I stood as I watched them 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV40mz3QguY
go, except for TOP, who came to stand beside me.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6nJi6RsOy3
"Don't say a word, please," I said as I turned to look at him.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3AHUZ29P8
"I wasn't going to say 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoAF6WOlC8w
anything, apparently," said TOP. "I know you're angry and the last thing1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDpHIVlSPU
you would want to hear from me is advice."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCY4bU15J0q
I turned to look the other way as I now felt a little guilty. 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDVEAyZd4N
"Was I harsh on them?" I asked quietly.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdhBaeRDiEU
"To be honest, you did the best you could not to let your anger get the best of you."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFPHMMfaEl
"I'm still upset, though."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0ihV2VQRD
"And that's normal. They will understand. You're human too."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡymdn4y7d7x
"Thanks, TOP." I said, trying to put up a smile. "Sorry for being harsh on you earlier."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMvKY1CM1Q
"It's okay. You guys go on ahead. I'll go get changed and I'll catch up with you later."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz1Hl1o1IVV
I gave TOP an assuring 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZ5pKy3xFQ
nod and he gave me a pat on my shoulder and walked away. I was on my way1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA08zXrDrU6
again and I found myself outside the indoor water park. I saw the 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFEGXdSYy50
others ahead of me and I kept my distance. I was still soaking wet and I1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJ74s5HgF9
started to shiver. It was now in the afternoon but the sun still didn't1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SXqZMIFeK
seem to warm me up as I expected it to. It was hot, yes, but I still 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCecwMCc0Xx
felt cold because of my dripping clothes.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4moD6SOJLv
We all found ourselves 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryWUyGzMJB
back at the back gate of the water park. I found G-Dragon and the Toxins1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKX9zWJo54y
all settled in G-Dragon's car. Daesung, Seungri, Hyo-rin and Taeyang 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMpzJXyEeea
were waiting for me. 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYDu4LLQix
"Hey, Sam, you don't 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpO6B5ZM0Ni
mind if I ride along with you, Daesung and Seungri, do you?" Hyo-rin 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAKk98pl1B7
asked as she approached me to keep the others out of ear shot.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyfIfSISIRO
"I'll ride with Tae, he shouldn't be alone," I said, giving Hyo-rin a small smile. "Don't worry about it."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡduS4h815MR
Hyo-rin gave me a kind 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorLarXXyvF
smile and I looked on as she settled in with Daesung and Seungri in the 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9Cxfw87kc
car. G-Dragon's car took off first, then Daesung's. I continued to watch1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGiz8ISNevo
on as the two cars left the premises and all I did was stand in the 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZvHBeqZRf
sun, trying to take in the warmth, but still shivering like a leaf.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWj89r5zUb
I had my eyes closed 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9cO6qete5
when I felt something warm on my shoulders. I opened my eyes and I found1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8BqP0XeH3o
Taeyang wrap his warm coat around me.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6KySCwjCBs
"You're really shivering," said Taeyang. "Let's hope you don't get..."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkFh3DhkR3
Before he could finish his sentence, I sneezed.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzz867hcgAI
"....a cold," said Taeyang, rolling his eyes at me. "Nice one, Sam. Now our managers will get pissed for sure."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2CKotXDQz
"Don't worry, it's just a small sneeze," I said as I sniffed. "I'll be fine by tomorrow."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVL2QAMsx6
"Let's hope so. Come on, we better get going."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtsEGzIZ598
Taeyang led me to his 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLyfA402NZL
car and he helped me open the door to the passenger's seat. We were on 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDIxpMwKYni
the road in no time, and as I sat in the car, I still felt cold that 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8XWzHw3Ah
Taeyang had to turn the heater on.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDLT6lkxWPo
In about thirty minutes,1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTtRKPSSddd
we were back in Seoul and back in the YG premises. I found the others 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLf7F1pKjQ
all waiting for us at the front entrance of the building. Taeyang and I 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCIbdlIft6
got out of the car and walked up to them. I led them in, still barefoot 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJ5QGimEu2
and surprisingly at the same time, Collins, Yang Hyun-suk and Lee 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA139QDnYkx
appeared out of the elevator.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzflrVIVJKu
"Where have you guys been?" Collins asked, as they approached us. "And why do you look so wet, Sam?"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGkGWl0Qvz
"We went to Caribbean Bay," I answered.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLmSlnFirb
Lee who stood behind 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3HNwXjQNo8
Collins gave me a funny startled look. She probably thought I was going 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡocti2YNV1P
to make up some kind of a lie to cover up for the others. But I had 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJX9ETWUVjp
other things in mind.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe90PJTuAVJ
"Caribbean Bay?" Yang Hyun-suk looked surprised. "We had things to sort out here and you went to have fun?"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcjTbFlRnEI
Yang Hyun-suk sounded a 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUlpajY3cR
little harsh and the rest of us were quiet. I could feel the atmosphere 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNn1jVV8hpg
behind me grow tense as no one said a word.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5ru6RkXos
"Well, is anyone going to say anything?" Yang Hyun-suk asked.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8QB2KsOllt
"We didn't just go there to have fun," I said, with my head down. "If there's anyone to blame for all this, it's me."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAEVbbUSNke
There was an awkward 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3FFFNnT2ES
silence as I felt all eyes on me. Their eyes felt like piercing needles,1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡttuypa2BlZ
but I had to ignore the feeling and carry on.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7OJjX5Y23
"What do you mean?" Collins asked.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zg3vUSono
"Well, I hear the press 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnKnvZ5Dbpt
are here," said Sam. "And I bet they are here over the video of G-Dragon1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxWsF3vyT0g
and I. I'll tell you everything from there."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59Le5T6Qo4
"That won't be 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzp7xa6u4b
necessary," said Yang Hyun-suk. "We can do all of that tomorrow or some 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLnYwdOkHT
other day. You look all beat and I don't think it will be appropriate to1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrK5bbz8eEP
go to the press looking all wet."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9bNMwt84Q2
I breathed out a sigh of1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5jxCOMtdst
relief. Things were simply going the way I thought they would. I just 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwTVimfn5t8
hoped that what I was going to do next would work out too.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLxQI9KPbs
"In the meantime, you go1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvbI1VHvPUT
to the hotel and get freshened up," said Collins. "We will talk later 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKeXAfGHxS
on in the evening and you will tell us all about it."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdg8HAk1wu2
I nodded my head in 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmcZovFytmP
agreement. Well, that was a relief. I seriously needed a change of 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcK0GGAsEVR
clothes as I felt myself shiver vigorously.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlGNXUZu5hu
"Come, I'll drive you to the hotel," said Taeyang.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7W4QzVNlwZ
"Alright," I said 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmBjbtB3NDw
quietly, as I looked up at Lee. She seemed really frightened. The last 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqVW4iPlKzr
thing she wanted was for all of us to get into trouble and it seems like1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq5i9AIuuGf
I was only making things worse.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeNZAqDbEe9
Before I turned to leave1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXJ4y8d8F5
with the rest of the group, I gave Lee a wink, assuring her that 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfv7xGuQQlC
everything was going to be alright and that she should trust me on this 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKlR817J8Wk
one.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJVjhP1mKV
***1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6sHr1A1Zmv
I sat on the couch all 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf71uK8hJhh
wrapped up in a blanket, coughing and sniffing like crazy as I continued1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYpIIA5DiL
staring at the TV. I was watching a K-drama series, "Boys over flowers"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQOBz1vAhl
and I was really enjoying it, despite being down with a cold. 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI8OrSrgmPB
I had a box of paper 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnXEATB1cWe
tissues right beside me and a plastic containing the ones I had blown my1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjhSH1XW20
nose on on my other side. Disgusting, I know, but hey, it was only a 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxPR9zqxh7f
cold and there was nothing I could do about it.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAq3kEFHNIB
I continued watching the1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwAmkrV7PFz
series when the waiter came in to bring in my warm chicken soup and 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb5an6K1vpq
announced that Taeyang had come to see me.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYOCnbLqDDb
"Hey, how are you doing?" Taeyang asked after the waiter gave me the soup and left while he came in.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXChj2uC06X
"Never better," I said, 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5VOcKoot2
sounding funny with a blocked nose. "Take a seat, please. Not too close 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTP5zf7I08G
to me though, I don't want you to catch my cold."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2GT8D8xD9
"I wasn't even going to try," Taeyang took a couch right next to mine, but far away from me as possible.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkknZfMZe0
"So, watching k-drama, huh?" Taeyang asked as he looked at the flat screen TV on the wall.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8UBrGxuPJg
"Ya, I'm actually enjoying it," I said as I put in a spoonful of chicken soup in my mouth. Mmm, it was so tasty.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6X95Gt0VO5
"And the others?" 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5TGwpxIr9Z
When Taeyang meant the "others," I knew he meant The Toxins. I just rolled my eyes and continued staring at the TV.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcLU2qqoBGN
"As usual, they went for practise two hours ago," I answered, not sounding like I cared.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdSBNMCAPGF
"Are you still mad at them?" Taeyang asked.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjj4xJsT2La
I got the remote and paused the TV. I couldn't catch up with reading the subtitles and Taeyang's question just confused me.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPMl0qtTl8R
"I don't know," I said, staring at my soup.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjhFm85dsI8
"You don't know or you are?"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78wq6NQa88
I shrugged my shoulders. To be completely honest, I am still mad, but then again, I felt like I wasn't and that felt confusing.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlA0kg8tcq
"I don't know, Tae," I 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVjxPBqeg4
answered. "I'm still upset with all of them, but another part of me is 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXQhYXwUFp
telling me that I won't stay that way for long and I should just try to 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwF9wuNY9T
forget all that happened yesterday."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYIjvh0inqN
"Ya, I understand. They 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO7tCvmsVna
never listened to you and you had to carry on with their game. And in 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiSaj96IVOl
the end, you take the blame because you knew how angry our managers were1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFuErCiwEg
going to get."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrl0NWLCjMi
I looked on at Taeyang 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwLoGUXupF
as I sniffed. He was right. Yesterday was tough, and coming up with a 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfcJSTQqK7
plan to help the others get out of trouble was even tougher when you 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdM0sGBCIYC
know you weren't only dealing with Collins, but also with Yang Hyun-suk 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmzblsPOIRX
who was as tough as nails.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡheCcHLTp4m
Last night, I took the 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtNfIkAmJw
blame and told our two managers that I was the one who decided that we 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqnfSBakz5o
should all go out and the others had nothing to do with it. I told them 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9uCeycBki5
that the others had insisted on working on the song, but I was the one 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEYhLnb3Bwq
who objected and made everyone do whatever they wanted. 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1LO9i4dOj
Apparently, the managers1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv7smuQRxsB
weren't that mad at me at all. If I hadn't lied on their part, they 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7F6Qtj0jtm
would've been way mad at the others instead. They were glad I had bought1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0nrrBEK7Hu
these guys back on time without creating much of a scene on social 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ79VJphbxg
media. Luckily, only a few people had taken pictures of us. Most people 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GpEEiwtoH
on social media were even surprised that BigBang and The Toxins were at 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoj0RsxhQFf
Caribbean Bay. Well, at least my plan worked out. What I was truly 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKcqCgxVVZC
avoiding, was grabbing too much attention from our fans, the paparazzi 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡui5QbuFJyo
and the reporters.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRYLInla4Q
After my confrontation 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8mQeaSUZQS
with our managers, I went straight to bed without talking to anyone and I1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDuHQ3qjwDp
didn't have supper. One, I was totally beat from all that had happened,1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxbvG1Cp9Y1
and two, I just didn't feel like talking to anyone.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6p0Zzyxxw
"Huh, I guess am still upset," I said, as I took in another spoon of soup in my mouth. "Especially after what GD did to me."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4I7YXZaL3
"Ya, what happened was kind of dramatic," said Taeyang.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbv28kMhEp
"You saw that?" I looked surprised. "I thought you came later on when I fell into the pool."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHR6Qa6Kh3
"No, Daesung and I arrived when you got to the top."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXKpP8vah0
"Oh," I sniffed and coughed. "Ya, it was kind of dramatic."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ58o7DgAXvT
"Have you tried talking to GD?"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4SvdDpDSxR
"To be honest, I haven't1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTvMlIF8eb
even tried. I don't even want to see nor talk to him. I would probably 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2zUn0iXXC
slap him in the face if I see him."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyL12UVFcXR
"I don't doubt that."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkC9kbztZoM
"And thank goodness my 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjf2yUTEuK
new phone isn't coming in until late in the afternoon. I wouldn't like 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBlv6EXmrjA
anyone calling me trying to tell me how sorry they are. Right now, all I1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡerprW1ceRR
want to do is watch some TV."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK965T0Pw0v
I quickly drank my 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPXkYXlHesO
chicken soup from the bowl. And my goodness, the cooks here really knew 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs4nezRBHwl
how to make lovely soup. I would probably order for it again if I had 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9woiO9XYg
to.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBM1hvwVgiT
"So, how are you and Hyo-rin?" I asked, after putting the bowl aside.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoDduyh4fn4
"Still not talking to each other," Taeyang amswered as he leaned back on the couch and stared at the ceiling.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpLv0iH9aOZ
"Looks like I'm not the only one not talking to people, aren't I?"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgwLMzC7KWc
"Nope."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMaizD3Vfy
I stared at Taeyang as he continued to look at the ceiling as I thought of what to say or ask next.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwCBQQEiyPQ
"What really happened to you two yesterday?" I asked.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9L34Uzbknf
Taeyang didn't say 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡei2wlBipnU
anything at first. Then he breathed out heavily and said, "what happened1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6sEUfCZG3
to us happens to every other couple, Sam."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDP5d3sSp4
"I know you fought or 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxgFLcbNVGQ
probably had an argument. I just want to know what it was all about. 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpi4RzPlgR2
That's if you're willing to tell me. I won't push you if you don't."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOMZtIH6C3
I noticed Taeyang smile 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRaxqLOduM6
while he continued to look upwards. It was probably over what I had 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2wsS7aPGw0
said. I was not one who liked to push people over talking about their 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpSrleirp9I
problems. I wasn't like Zoey who always got away with such things.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAtvhG1IppH
"Aren't you going to say anything?" I asked Taeyang who continued to smile.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbMg99cySJU
"I'm just wondering why some things you wish for never come to pass."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw9KRomN4O5
I raised an eyebrow this time around. Was he diverting the question or was he talking in riddles now?1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtqnHZEfc08
"I thought I was the only one who is sick today," I said rolling eyes.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbSwHUX7ge
"Don't mind what I just said," said Taeyang, as he looked at me. "It's nothing."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRalD620bwA
"Mmm, figured. If you don't want to say anything, it's fine by.."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Kic7TGL6K
Before I could finish my1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLnStv2wzE
sentence, I sneezed. Like, really loud. There was silence at first 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBEyTGD7Bd8
until Taeyang started laughing at me while I blew my nose with a tissue.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0SmqqoWL3
"It's not funny, Tae," I said furrowing my eyebrows and threw the used up tissue in the plastic.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2291G6wRD
"You sound funny when you sneeze. That's why I laughed," said Taeyang, giving me his eye smile.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3FvsxMSzG
"Well, it's good I made you laugh then. Just like me, you haven't been smiling at all since yesterday."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMuhFwIkdo
"Looks like the two of us really have a lot in common when things don't go our way."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡepCv42JWhc
"Yep, cheers to that." 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡByDv1F1DTn
"So, have you thought of any lyrics for the song yet?" Taeyang asked.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2S6HiTgu88
I slapped my face. I had completely forgot about the song since I was running up and down the whole of yesterday.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqu3tbicNDX
"I completely forgot," I said, as I sniffed. "Weren't you guys supposed to work on it today?"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQLctSW3SM
"We can't work on it without you," said Taeyang. "You and G-Dragon decided that the both of you would work on it together."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4uPNOSWMc
"Don't mention his name because I feel like breaking something."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP5QeGaC7F8
"Wow, that sounds personal."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaRIzUFL8mO
"Ya," I nodded my head. "It really is."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYtJoJOkGiG
"Then how are the two of you going to work on the lyrics if you're still angry at him?"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhZ7GcTOLW
"I think I've a better 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXNUizSuLE
idea. Let's all just work on the song together. I may be the songwriter 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2W4v7MjSo
in my group, but I always give a chance for others to bring in their 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXknQg6CDoa
lyrics. It's better that way."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPmluDmlMda
"That's not a bad idea. Aren't you going to tell GD about it?"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqITOjXpJr5
"Uh, no. Until I'm no longer mad at him, you will have to act as my middle man."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqcys3jlEAQ
"Me? Your middle man?" Taeyang burst into a fit of laughter. "That's going to be classic."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡANwQNxRXXI
"You should be honoured. Most people would die just to be my middle man."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyw3FlQguUH
"I wouldn't. FYI, I'm a pop star just like you and people would die just the same."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDotwM9OS1D
"Haha, good point."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHrsm0fCcR
Taeyang and I continued 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31tFxoX9r7
to talk for a good thirty minutes and it was so much fun. I was glad he 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6JA4TIji7
came to see me because life tends to be boring sometimes when you're 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW3O4nu4ban
alone. Apart from talking about the events that took place yesterday, we1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJKvMV1pMfG
talked about other fun things concerning our personal lives. Mostly 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuxnfeVxcyW
focusing on the funny things that goes on whenever we were with your 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bdWLGfcqM
group members. I mostly talked about Zoey, since she always creates 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVNvjH7IFIm
drama in my life, while Taeyang talked about Seungri, who always got 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYG30NH0pJ
into trouble since he was the "maknae" (막내) (youngest) in the group.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0SRz6XK36r
While the two of us were1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYUTdxsrQL
laughing after Taeyang finished telling me a funny story about Seungri,1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyS4OVHWrzI
I received a phone call from the hotel land line. 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWEYkAZjNi
I quickly went over to 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7k013Crfsw
the phone, trying to calm myself after laughing so much. Luckily, it was1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIko8jz7TjQ
just the receptionist downstairs, informing me that Seungri and Daesung1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9r2ena6EVD
had come to visit. I told the receptionist to tell them that they could1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLXQtB8ghV
come up and I put the receiver down.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwrBVjJFGpG
"Speaking of the devil," I said as I passed Taeyang, going back to my seat, "he is here with Daesung."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡriVQfLz0bX
"Seungri is here? Well, that's a surprise."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4oMXSmY15u
"I'm not," I said shrugging my shoulders. "He's obviously here to check up on me, since he calls me his panda."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdWFqJ5gYJ
"Trust me, you're one of his many pandas," said Taeyang, as he smiled.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAIKvg2LVt
"Shut up, Tae!" I threw a pillow at him and he blocked it as he raised his arm.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoR4qxnkO4w
"Eww, that pillow 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWw5hA6WX7
probably has your germs on it," said Taeyang, as he disgustingly looked 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARULXfSUUH
at the pillow I had thrown at him on the floor.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xNCfvgGQ8
"You're welcome," I said with a devious smile on my face.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmga4FSVED
A few seconds later, we 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ463f5CGJox
heard the sound of the elevator then Seungri and Daesung appeared into 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNwQsGGGIz
the lounge. Seungri was holding a huge stuffed panda and Daesung was 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJkpC8CjYsf
holding a box of chocolates.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAB1nOTkAp8
"Awww, is that for me?" I asked as I turned on the couch to face them.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLnhpBC5fl
"Ah, no, the panda is a 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZjqFx0kfQ
very good friend of mine and just came along to see the famous B.K who 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSLDnNxWhZh
is sick," said Seungri. Daesung and Taeyang burst out laughing at the 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgp3UHsiyas
same time.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbD186Hw9jG
"Very funny, Seungri," I said, as I frowned at him. "Give him to me, I want to hug him."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvt5AcvHNE0
"And give him your cold? No ways," said Seungri, hugging and holding onto the panda.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6MZ8B4JBR
"Do you really want me to come over there and fight for it?"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCkTsu3kjha
"I would give the lady the panda if I were you, Seungri," said Taeyang. "You wouldn't want to see her nasty side."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4lXNKyDm5
"Hey, I don't have a nasty side," I said, as I looked at Taeyang.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwsKdF5soc
"Everybody has one," said Taeyang, shrugging his shoulders.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFuViP7jvUh
"Never mind that," said Daesung, "just give her the panda, Seungri."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYnAW3462VY
"Really? But he'll be scared without me," said Seungri, still holding onto the panda.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqtx6hVCpa
"For goodness sake, I 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlsNPL6q1fD
know the panda is mine," I said. "And besides, we ladies are good with 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuX8vqwahL3
handling cute and cuddly stuff. Mr Panda won't ever feel lonely or 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhAAOFIYUD
scared with me."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAE4MYYEYPa
"Ya, I know he won't," said Seungri with a smile as he walked over to me and gave me the panda.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgeHXceGNh
I took the panda in my 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpR1JqXaYPT
arms and I hugged and cuddled it as though I was a little girl who just 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUtIfnrnLhG
got her doll for the first time. It was so soft and fuzzy that for a 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO776V6AsjF
moment, it felt like a warm pillow I could sleep on. The new smell of 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPo55hVrb59
the panda triggered my nose though, and I sneezed so loud, yet again.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8i4anIYhMs
"My goodness, Mr Panda would need a doctor," said Seungri. "You're gonna get him sick."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkWVCSVlnhU
"He's officially mine now," I said as I sniffed. "We're going to be the best of besties."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2EyVQtv5Td
"Whatever, just take good care of him for me, okay?"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59ihHnI3Zw
"I will," I said with a smile as I cuddled the panda in my arms.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJO1maSPz9
"I got you some chocolates," said Daesung, as he handed over the box of chocolates to me. "Every girl's favourite treat."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZnTKX8d91
"Aww, thanks Daesung," I1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKw6nZgxla
said as I smiled at him and I felt myself blush when I remembered what 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNazvnH5IO6
happened between him and I yesterday at the park. "That's so sweet of 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhpPvQiK7BR
you. See, Seungri, you should be a little bit more like him."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnnXkWZtanS
"What did I do?" Seungri asked looking surprised. "I bought you a panda."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3A3nSSWS1y
"Never mind, come take a seat, please," I said. "It's good you two came to see me."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2cFhYdIbgo
"Are you feeling any better?" Daesung asked as he and Seungri sat on the other couch opposite Taeyang.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT7go7UZ9up
"Well, I'm not really feeling that sick," I said, as I sniffed. "I'll be fine tomorrow, you'll see."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQO0ieVSSR
"I doubt that," Taeyang blurted out.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXn4V7DvdHU
"Ah, put a sock in it, Tae!" I said angrily. "You really know how to make me feel bad."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxi39HEeNSB
"Ya, I do."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGRy7EIG163
While the four of us 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBc17jGc7MK
were chatting and Seungri kept on pulling funny faces at me every now 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrGZrcrczN4
and then, just to make me laugh, The Toxins arrived. At first I didn't 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtcqinLNIIo
notice since I was laughing so much, until Daesung looked behind me and 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHV8OnL61tJ
said:1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3ykCC5sfi
"Hey, Zoey." 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtx0bZnFdZ
I stopped laughing automatically and I turned to looked behind me. Zoey was standing in the passage with her training bag. 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡband6Oq6YZ
"Hey," Zoey replied. "I was wondering why there was laughter when we came in."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKgMCieYi2R
"We came to see how Sam was doing," said Taeyang.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtXwH8doJEW
"It's good you came to 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYOoPYktwR3
keep her company while we were gone." Zoey turned to look at me, but I 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg6SgKJGmKj
quickly turned away, putting myself back in my usual position on the 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh652B0pSYf
couch.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRcFRicuVVd
"Hey, what's with all the laughter?" came Mike's voice. "Oh, you guys are here, that's great!"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIiFy0J9e4J
"Who's here?" Christine asked, also joining the others. "Hey, guys!"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWVsW0Ie9vR
"Hey, how was practise?" Daesung asked.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfrLdro3vS
"Tiring as usual," I heard Daniel reply. 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaA3gETFf9U
"We will just put our stuff away and join you in a second," said Zoey.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ95twZK3BkD
"Ya, please do, it will be so much fun," said Seungri.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFqarI1I9D
I tugged at my panda's 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRa1PEbtXb
ear absentmindley as I felt Taeyang's eyes on me. I looked at him and it1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9bONkrxM8
was obvious he could read my mind. I was still not in a mood to talking1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFr2DNAalC
to the other Toxins, and I so much as wanted as to leave the room.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3UBvMA6XON
The Toxins came back to 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4qMdXKd5CQ
the lounge area. Zoey sat next to me and I moved away from her as I held1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbeIfYNK1Ji
my panda like it was the only thing that ever mattered to me. Christine1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3k5QPAmmp
went to join Seungri and Daesung, while Mike and Daniel joined Taeyang.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCiQxypsWE
For a moment, no one 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOyu6GbD9g
said a word to each other. There was silence. As for me, I kept on 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARDttXq6ZJ
tugging at the panda's ear still not looking at Zoey.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0pW43yuNz9
"Oh, Sam, you've a panda," said Daniel, breaking the silence.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx25nOnehCe
"Ah huh," I replied dully. 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsCI8kGVs98
"I got it for her," said Seungri, with a smile.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8g1iLO89iR
"Aww, it's so cute," said Christine. "You should get me one just like that someday."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ82mkg8o8kE
I stared up at the 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfU4C3pEqq
ceiling and then at the panda. I got the box of chocolates that were 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzaKGQ62xTC
next to me, opened it and put a piece of chocolate in my mouth.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeD0aFj1O99
"And she also has chocolates too," said Zoey. "I also want some."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjuIxuRgKgz
When Zoey tried to reach1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrGhZ2IFVCl
out for chocolates, I lifted the box and took it to my other side to 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrn24naO4kn
prevent her from getting any. I looked at her as I furrowed my eyebrows.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6T72WJ1FMz
"Sorry, I should have asked," said Zoey.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡang7Q1kkcF
"Ya, you should have!" I snapped at her.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLF6KN1X3BX
Zoey looked hurt with 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkpBSG6Y4xh
the way I responded to her, but at the moment, it didn't even matter. I 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOn7NqnobC
turned to face the other way sucking at the chocolate in my mouth.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwNCTdDkW68
"Are you still mad at us?" Zoey asked.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6fSKpcUAg
I didn't answer as I put1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAj58RTVptp
another piece of chocolate in mouth. My silence was an obvious answer. I1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCnolh3MwJr
was still mad, especially at Zoey.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBfHr4GAaj
"I know it's a little 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaZo7c2D0XS
late to say this," started Zoey. "But we're really sorry for what 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡclVRQpkZpN
happened yesterday. Yes, we didn't listen to you as always and we're 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTfl0didMCn
sorry for that too. You even took the blame for us. And I know it 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqd0hcbKFA
doesn't look like we appreciate what you do for us, but we really do. 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz2RekVXoEy
You've saved our necks a number of times before from Collins, but this 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEkuCzG4Maf
time you had to deal with Yang Hyun-suk too."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp3kmIEvboU
I stared at the ceiling as I sucked at the chocolate in my mouth as though I wasn't listening.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPlzmHicu4
"I don't like it when 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDxcEv39hi
you're not talking to me," Zoey continued. "And last night when you 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4azINUCyTQ
didn't say a word, I knew you were going to give us the silent 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPhV87bAi15
treatment. You know you're my best friend and my only source of 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7UWbUyszCx
happiness everyday. You know I'm not myself without you. I'm really 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkusFxZob7b
sorry, Sam."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY6FzLByLIC
"We're all sorry, Sam," said Daniel. "I know you're hurt real bad because of our silly actions yesterday."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl7bqiIKcfR
"I'm sorry too," said 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvlVDxV2fg
Mike. "I should have acted like the responsible one, but we all know 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡug9RWQo3kA
that's not the case. You really saved us yesterday and all we want is 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ65VBQeSuiF
for you to talk to us again."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLBCYnPYQ2O
"I'm also sorry, Sam," 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsc265K4xDT
said Christine. "We might say 'we won't do it again,' but we keep on 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡedGagjmN7d
doing the same thing. We can't do anything without you. You're our 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkoeuIOjJDc
leader."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Br3N2tVKW
I still didn't say a 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIHVPUQLB1d
word to them as I continued to stare upwards. I knew it would come to 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHI6VC0YbuP
this, them saying that they were sorry. My hatred for them wasn't going 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdK0yxPT5o5
to last forever and I knew that very well. They were family and I loved 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlgcXtxtNt
them despite the awful things they put me through.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIBRUDFhXKh
"Aren't you going to say something, Sam?" Taeyang asked. 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDUQtBXLcoT
"And what should I say?" I asked. "They know completely well that I can't stay mad at them forever, so...."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhMtlyhDkY
"Wait, you're not mad any more?" Zoey asked, with a little hint of excitement in her voice.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ks0abRL8z
I sighed deeply and I turned to face Zoey. And I each gave the other Toxins a look as well.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlGV08snc2
"I'm mad and pretty much1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimGSykpvzU
angry with all of you," I said. "But it's obvious I can never stay mad 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡepWX4bSmnY
at you forever. So, yes, I forgive you."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBUVmD1S7WZ
"Seriously, you mean it?" Daniel asked.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJptV9uGdQT
I sniffed and said, "ya, I mean it."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgweQTYT4At
"Aww, I love you, Sam!" Zoey exclaimed as she tried to come close to hug me.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡttcgosF975
"Whoa! Back up!" I said 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTdByYeqFJK
with my hands raised to stop her from getting any closer to me. "I've a 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2gH2yNJrWH
cold. Just because I forgive you, doesn't mean you can hug me."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLGpBobI4Y
"Ah, you! Always acting 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdbruJWMDK3
like you don't want a hug. Come here!" Zoey wrapped her arms around me 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOeWKfv5hqT
and hugged me. "Your cold isn't that contagious and I don't care if I 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG96qRrns3f
catch it anyway."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHwCLpi91lw
Christine, Daniel and 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡELb13huCMT
Mike also came over and we were all hugging each other on the couch. 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaKrApbfacW
Even the panda got caught up in the hug. It was kind of nice and I 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVPbQ0TWSp
smiled. I completely wasn't mad at them any more, that's for certain.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQeO87QLC1l
"Aww, let me take a pic of this beautiful moment," said Deasung as he pulled out his phone and took a photo.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlt4Lw8KC7B
"I'm glad you guys finally resolved things ," said Taeyang.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTZc262TZ4
"Ya, I'm glad we did," I said, as I felt my nose twitch. "Can you guys please stop hugging me, I'm about to...."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPTX6th8lp
I sneezed and the other Toxins quickly withdrew their arms around me and looked on as though I was contagious.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ40JbxHCG9O
"Excuse me," I said as I got a tissue and blew my nose. "I just can't help myself."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckQPL0EOsA
"Don't worry, you won't 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1cBKd1izOL
help yourself laughing once you see this pic," said Daesung, as he 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNRsV3ioduH
looked at his phone with a smile on his face.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyPLh3pLgIH
"Please don't tell me you captured me sneezing," I rolled my eyes when I obviously knew the answer.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2QAcEwQvhG
"Ya, he did," said Seungri, with a smirk on his face.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2sUOdL9Io
"Never mind. It's almost lunch time and I'm starving," I said. "What can we order for lunch?"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhIqZmCcKqw
"I'm glad you asked," said Zoey. "You just sit back and relax, my hungry kitty. We already have lunch covered."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxgAVNVCEoD
"What do you mean?" I asked, looking at Zoey with an eyebrow raised.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRGYD5NBerl
"We thought of having a special lunch just for you since you were so mad at us," said Daniel. 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuxoYhuJyu5
"Well, that's interesting," said Taeyang. "Weren't you going to invite us as well?"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9TA0j1LTOB
"Well, ya, but surprisingly you brought yourselves here," said Zoey. "We were about to call you as soon as we arrived."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpQMBCsIgB
"We already called the others so, no need," said Mike.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfqTDbfTKVh
At that moment, I had 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH9mLQqRcUH
put in another piece of chocolate in my mouth and I almost choked on it.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpcPDiKVHF
Mike who was the closet to me patted my back.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡScA60iLMaD
"Hey, are you okay?" he asked.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqiIcZK3nb
"I'm fine, I guess," I said, as I held my throat.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfBDAWr26jr
"This is what happens when you don't share chocolates," said Zoey. "Here, I'll help you."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVYWUgkKOsl
Zoey got the box of 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbgfFtXZ0nA
chocolates and Christine went to sit next to Zoey to eat them while I 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV2I7xnnFZV
continued rubbing my throat, deep in thought.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsyUIKjiEsk
"Can you excuse me for a second?" I asked as I got up from the couch with my panda and left the room.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxLmfCfycj
I was in the passage as I1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVfWoXQKmvM
leaned on the wall, close to the door of the room Zoey and I were 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAmO4KfQSxN
sleeping in. I held the panda in my arms and hugged it tightly. I sighed1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSLnT00rNf1
in what felt like sadness.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jYumxQaQz
"You aren't okay, again, aren't you?" came Taeyang's voice behind me.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRwHxppnyfT
I sniffed and without facing him said, "you already know. I don't have to say anything."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡESpQCoS980
I heard his footsteps 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9fJvFzqR4
and I knew he was coming closer. He also leaned his back against the 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFlvCFCwxW
wall as he stood right next to me and I heard him sigh.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzSBgCZYSxl
"Are you really going to stay mad at GD for long?" he asked.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJvSv8F5qOU
"And are you going to do the same with Hyo-rin?" I also asked.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYTUkzAdxFz
"Are we really do this right now?"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7xmwVT9B0
"Do you want us to continue making each other feel bad about yourselves?" 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGg75Z4ELDd
Taeyang chuckled silently and I smiled, still not looking at him.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8AqBGIg9zn
"This isn't working, is it?" Taeyang asked.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmRWtM8LTv
"Nope." 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1aSN4fJKz
I heard Taeyang take in another deep breath and said, "I really admire you, Sam."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjEB6ATktXE
My eyes almost felt like1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfyje8X4A3
they would pop out of their sockets. He admired me? Like how? Admiring 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqh0USGJnqK
meant a lot of things. And right now I felt really confused.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFTL8cSMZb9
I turned to look at him 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ73ziUvf9vK
and I found him staring at me. He gave me a simple smile and I didn't 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqOrhHnJfv
know where to begin to ask what he truly meant.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNcW4axUFI
"I....uh, what do you, uh.... mean when you said you admired me?" I asked as I stammered.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Bgk1QrygL
"That you're surrounded 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZbQngc6xsU
by such amazing people in your life that you're even able to forgive 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwKds2nLD0V
them despite you getting hurt by them," he answered. "I admire that 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMRSlfgSgiX
you've such a good heart. You don't seem to hold grudges for long."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7B81gjgxj
"A good heart? Really? I don't think so. If it's anyone with a good heart it's you, Tae, not me." 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiyrt0D1DQ8
"Then if you can see that in me, I can also see that in you."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxlw4Ex9Zgo
I sighed and I gave Taeyang a stern eye. "So what's your point?"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxCaPUGNSaX
"That you also shouldn't stay mad at GD."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8nUXFFFXH
"Tae, you don't know how I felt yesterday when he betrayed me and left me dangling on the cliff for my life."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHvYzuoya7b
Taeyang raised an eyebrow at me. "You felt betrayed?"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTI1Xusftu
"Well, ya." I shrugged my shoulders. "What GD did to me wasn't.....It was so not....."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdk7sUg9jPA
Apparently, I couldn't 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXg17PjTXp
seem to find the right words. I didn't even realise how I felt when I 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSoDYf9i3ww
talked about this to Taeyang. On one hand I was confused and on the 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdX9XtTDG4
other, I was still mad I could break something. I was even squeezing my 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLrUgcQ56LH
panda tightly. If it were a live animal, I would have choked it to 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzQNZcWXPx
death.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfqTz7vOJhC
Taeyang still looked at me with his eyebrow raised and I didn't like that he wasn't saying anything.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyEilY5joZN
"Aren't you going to say anything, Tae?" I asked, sounding frustrated. "Don't look at me like that."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWQqxwA33K
Taeyang folded his arms 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFnwVvXWv4m
and said, "if you really want me to say something, I'll say what I think1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQOsJ2YHBIp
and what I'm seeing right now. You aren't mad at GD. You're just hurt."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqm7MM8h1n
"Hurt? I don't get it." I felt even more confused.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TN5WUuPEA
"You're may think you're1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV4MrYeBAnR
upset and angry, when actually you're hurt. You just said you felt 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcMotgN2wUT
betrayed with what GD did to you. Feeling betrayed isn't getting angry, 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrtb5G67OIE
but feeling hurt."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHvXMkQygxH
I slowly took in what Taeyang said and I couldn't help but feel he was right on this one.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbqu3OuuTI
"But I wouldn't feel 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC9g0LLTsmK
hurt or betrayed if I...." I was soon hit with the most shocking 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeH7M0Vcn8B
revelation of my life and I stopped myself in mid sentence as I looked 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5jQjd8Icg4
at Taeyang.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuM7j6Einu1
Taeyang gave me that 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhFLPURP3dx
look that he already knew what I was about to say. And he probably had 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIIRPM43rGO
figured it out a whole lot sooner than I did. I shook my head at him, 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡte54dgCobJ
while in return, he nodded.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8EtaBl5Sns
"No, freaking way," I said, trying not to raise my voice. 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR5ZvjzWk82
"Ya," said Taeyang. "Believe it or not, it seems like you like him."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHKdfXDUzI
I didn't say a word as I1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsBY2fALRo
went back to leaning my back against the wall. I buried my chin into my1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHkjehzo1Z
panda's soft head not really believing what just happened. The thought 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡysr9eh7LQh
of liking GD clouded my mind. Not only that. What happened between 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAtuDlsmfKV
Daesung and I at the park really made things complicated.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ39THBOJmr2
"I guess you're right," I muttered to Taeyang. "But I can't tell for sure if I really like him or not."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5wKaD1HKA
"Maybe all you need is a little time to figure it out," said Taeyang. "Right now, you're just confused."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1rAysFC7n
"I'm 'really' confused. You've no idea."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUO4flVUJle
"Did something else happen that you aren't telling me?"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4SUL8w99kR
If there was ever a way I1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6LuN5fEgy4
would personally give Taeyang an award for, was for mind reading. It's 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcNDLK6E2jM
like he knew what was going on inside my head. I wondered if I should 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIQ6MomCNhL
tell him about Daesung too, but I was saved my the bell.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCioNxn98pL
"Hey, you two, let's go, lunch is ready downstairs," said Zoey appearing in the passage. 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKEKzSB6UN
"Okay, let me put my panda away," I said as I quickly disappeared into the room and I left it on my bed. 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnOYuOIjkzF
When I came out, I still found Taeyang where I had left him and the two of us went to join the others entering the elevator.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvXJDCqYkRS
"You two are really close today. Are you up to something?" Zoey asked Taeyang and I as we got into the elevator.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQYYSUTskA
"No, why do you ask?" I asked.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXkyRRf98b
"Well, I'm just asking,"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7fwPZyLdmP
said Zoey, as she playfully scratched the back of her head. "Who knows,1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYr3Mp4szpF
Taeyang might steal you away from me and become your new best friend."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2VydZJNZck
"Sounds like you're jealous," said Seungri, with a mocking smile on his face.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbuugO6rgns
"No, I'm not!" Zoey snapped.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvNmllrpaJ
"Hilarious," muttered Taeyang, as he smiled.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSPQRIOX9O0
"If I knew that's what you were thinking about, I wouldn't have asked," I said, as I rolled my eyes.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡheBqWjT6l7
I pressed the button 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSwHGQz9TuS
leading us to the ground floor and the doors to the elevator closed 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4M55cXuCmD
before us. In a matter of seconds, we found ourselves on the ground 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJWyCCekMM
floor and we all walked out of the elevator.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC2IB2nVzwI
We went to the main 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4MfvvJTcOj
hotel dinning room and a waiter lead us to the table reserved for us for1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDy9lW1WhS
lunch. It was a huge round table in the VIP section. There were ten 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRL3VSY6ASo
seats around the table, obviously for all BigBang and Toxins members.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0TbsPoJ5F
"Why didn't you invite, our managers and Lee?" I asked Zoey as we approached the table.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUMVMfFmwY
"Are you serious? Those guys are busy and you wanted me to invite them?" Zoey asked. 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlFaS5Hxw3R
"To be honest, we just 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3IZRcguDN
wanted to avoid them asking us questions about yesterday," said Daniel. 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVWEp4J5C9a
"We wanted it to be strictly Toxins and BigBang."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasOSXW5kRz
"Was that so hard to say?" I asked Zoey upon Daniel's answer.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhbv00c2yR
"Maybe. Let's forget about it and sit, shall we?" Zoey suggested and she walked ahead of us, reaching the table first.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjEY2FRXzRT
We all got to the table and before I could pull out my chair, Taeyang pulled the chair out for me and I glady sat.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHx1jBJUcks
"Thanks, Tae," I said as I smiled up at him.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vXc9lsNzh
"You're welcome," said Taeyang as he sat next to me and Daesung sat on my other side.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRfWVUJOCv
"Okay, weird, you two are getting real close," said Zoey as she sat across the table looking directly at Taeyang and me.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbox7e4JbQh
"Nah, I don't think so,"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqaZExdKtqE
said Christine. "Taeyang is just so sweet. I wish I was the sick one so1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5IA5Y6tR9l
he would be treating me like that."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVZqWffxH5
"Mmm, I don't think so,"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡosTw3UDJnq
said Zoey, shaking her head. "Did something happen between the two of 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS9mFUfb6Cm
you yesterday that I'm not aware of?"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqwzHY7iWq
"My goodness," I rolled my eyes and sniffed. "Stop making a drama out of everything, Zoey."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRdkr27VSc
"I'm not," said Zoey, shrugging her shoulders.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVesLWES1AV
"Then, stop trying to make one."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9baIfTfY6
"Before you two decide to tear each other apart," said Seungri. "Can we please have our food now? I'm starving."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8rt4rpsIjx
"Ya, me too," said Mike.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1v2tnyiOqr
"Wait, we've to wait for TOP and GD to get here first," said Zoey.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjh2GbUtpie
"Seriously?" Daniel asked. "Do we really have to wait?"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3XJukqxkZ
"We can't really be so sure how long they're going to take to get here," said Daesung.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjadYsRtV9E
"They will be here any moment now," said Zoey as she stared at her fancy white wrist watch. "Trust me."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv8vtgOu3HR
"Really? Can we just get on with it?" Mike asked.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSW1HWioYU
"We haven't even passed a minute, and you're complaining already?" Daesung asked almost in a fit of laughter.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrgcdULeCVi
"Ah, here they come," said Zoey as she looked behind me. "Told you they will be here."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlXdtAlWlT
I didn't even dare try 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoD2nhn2htD
to look behind me as I twirled a strand of my hair with my fingers as I 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4Fn1n0lgi
coughed. Zoey got up from her seat and ran over to G-Dragon and TOP.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYkGvqncAG8
"I'm so glad you're here," said Zoey. 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2JLnklZ9Wx
"I'm glad you invited us," came TOP's voice. "How is our patient doing?"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQ6luaf9NA
"Why don't you see for yourself?" Zoey suggested.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2QELzSBZH
I heard footsteps coming1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Fv40TxK32
towards the table and I couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSxiEeQ4TE
as I moved in my seat. Taeyang must have noticed because he turned to 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRSiUFx8Wea
look at me.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡulj6WHwlZz
"Are you okay?" he whispered.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpTm8MRY894
"I'm trying to," I whispered back.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsIOw2VtLil
I soon felt strong hands1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2Bs1vy6jl
grip my shoulders and I was startled. For a moment, I thought it was GD1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu2K5RAofe8
until I took a whiff of TOP's musky cologne.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLIpXzWrRLS
"Hi, Sam," said TOP, as he bent over to give me a peck on the cheek. "How are you doing?"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9o9fYUbS95
"I'm a whole lot better,1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp35lKetvJM
thanks," I replied, as I felt myself blush and the spot where TOP 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXiyHfdeKD5
pecked me burn up. "It's nothing serious." I sniffed.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWqllMkmZW
"Glad to hear that."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGXRkjl2ep
When TOP let go of my shoulders and walked away to take his seat next to Mike, I heard G-Dragon's voice behind me.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIQ0wa0iSgk
"I'm glad you're okay, Sam. I thought of the worst when you got sick."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbzVZ2FizQ
I was planning not to 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3kRNmxs65H
turn and look at G-Dragon, but I did anyway. When I looked at him, he 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgAMCpPITr
was staring at me with those captivating eyes of his. I could tell that 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡruAzTpBWTo
he was sorry for what he did to me yesterday. I was wondering whether to1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtymOND82AR
jump at him and tear him apart, or just let the problem go like water 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPNgV4OuNO
under the bridge.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSlcqk4eZq
I smiled, at least that was an effort, and said, "I'm fine, GD, my cold isn't serious neither is it contagious."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg8JiHmXIB1
"Wait, you're not mad at me anymore?" he asked.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGH5JuawmA6
I tried not to frown. "Let's not talk about that. I'm starved."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQPpygTmqp
"Okay, then," said Zoey, as she wrapped her arm around G-Dragon's elbow. "Let's sit and have lunch."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Vke3dd13n
Zoey and G-Dragon sat down next to each other as they were conversating about something.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQDgQCxpKJ
"You know what? At least I tried not to sound mad at him," I said to Taeyang.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOTCKUcnyRt
"Will you try to keep that up for long?" Taeyang asked.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5E9JWh5zP
"If I can manage to have lunch without any mishaps, then I know things will be okay."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1TEWzWoUA
The waiters soon came 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXvlYz8IIVc
and laid our lunch on the table. We first had lovely soup for a starter.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPgqa6T3uy
And since Zoey mentioned earlier that it was a special lunch 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡns1GjsjWmB
specifically for me, we were all served my favourite dish as the main 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6z9QLsQMi
meal, Italian chicken terazzini.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdXY4x83iOW
For a moment, I felt 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUYQwiB31kx
more at home than ever before. A feeling I hadn't felt in a long time. 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbn1GWIAWRC
Zoey really knew how to make me feel more pleased with her in order for 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygWG09OYqc
me to forget that I was ever mad.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZwPaJVK1V
"Mmm, this is so 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt2gojy992W
delicious," said Mike, a few minutes in during the meal. "Now I see why 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb1EdnwON0C
you like this dish, Sam. It's so awesome."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtx6vZtqBU1
"I agree," said Seungri. "And the chefs here really know how to make a good meal."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvsT7kJXkQF
"We wouldn't have had this if it wasn't for Zoey," I said, as I looked at her. "Thanks, by the way."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfWUL73mshC
"Anything for you, Sam,"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVAVxTilxbS
said Zoey with a huge grin on her face. "But to be honest, this whole 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZrAD1E4RD4
lunch thing, wasn't really my idea."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRk89DUZtu
"Oh? Then whose was it then?" Daesung asked.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlrpH8VeXdr
"Da, GD. Who else?" Zoey replied as she playfully nudged G-Dragon on his arm with her elbow.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3vr40v8A0t
I had just taken in some1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQkfHgQy1U
food into my mouth and I almost choked on it, but I tried not to make 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDh7czstRk
it look obvious. I slowly put my spoon and fork on the plate as I slowly1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8uQWq2H1x7
tried to chew my food, but at the same time, processing what Zoey had 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzjO6mYxJs
just said.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBg8yFZz8M1
"This was all G-Dragon's idea?" I asked.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqanSHUWMV5
"Well, ya," Christine 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwT3bF5HWiI
replied. "You were so mad that you weren't talking to us, when we met 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJXJHG5y2f
G-Dragon at YG this morning, he suggested the idea of throwing you a 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlARREc6wW
special lunch to lighten your mood."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQTPAwUGYL
At that moment, I didn't know if all this lightened my mood or just darkened it even more.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoBAC9VSPWB
"Thanks for the lunch, 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9L9W9ZUiv
GD," I said with a smile, which felt rather painful on my face. "It's so1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPMxBWRkSJY
sweet of you to have come up with this."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhx3bGGf7BL
"You're welcome," said G-Dragon as he winked at me.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt667rLxYwk
I almost felt like 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjtiQLDOhI
jumping at him from my seat to poke his eyes out with a fork, but I was 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkQYqxKm0J
surprised with myself when I didn't move a muscle and continued to stare1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzEr5GwYoo0
at him with a fake smile on my face. Where was all this anger coming 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7mtGARf0l
from? And why was it that with every minute that passed, my anger kept 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFK2LmhCcAv
turning into rage?1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKr4tsdof6T
Oh, goodness. I needed 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbeN1Ek8pXw
help, that's for sure. I wasn't supposed to be mad at G-Dragon up to 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCo0xwSxZiF
this point. But why did I still feel angry and hurt? 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxb0FuR3CP
I tried to push aside 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSePL0WIPG
the questions and my boiling anger as I stared at my food and continued 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlrLU9UPVrn
to eat. When we were all done with our main meal, we were served 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpv7oLU2o7g
dessert. Again, surprise, surprise, it was my favourite dessert, frozen 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJqs7hImPG
chocolate moussé.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0e5YnbHjs
"Yum, yum, yum," I said,1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjAqjdo2HSb
with a bright smile on my face as the waiter laid down a dessert bowl 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtna1SOayfy
filled with chocolate moussé in front of me.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLR3nLWImtb
"This is the most excited I've seen you today, Sam," said Taeyang.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQq5r288CYx
"It's because chocolate moussé is her favourite dessert," said Daniel. "Give her that and she would be your best friend."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡREKE3c0hm1
"I'll keep that in mind," said TOP.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaAbPyveeGO
I didn't wait for 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf7XTTxELx0
everyone else to get their own share of dessert. As soon as I got mine, I1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ztYnPhIO8
got a dessert spoon and started to eat the cold dessert. Mmmm, I closed1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHFECBL7Zk1
my eyes as I took it in my mouth and for once, I felt like I was in 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1X89S68pSb
heaven.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhNkCQTYVQn
"This is so good," I said, with my eyes closed as I savoured the chocolate in my mouth.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOKIUHXPEi
"Be careful though," said G-Dragon. "You're not supposed to be eating cold stuff when you've a cold and a cough."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04xWb4BtDw
"I don't care," I said 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsYeZWadICO
as I opened my eyes and smiled at G-Dragon. "I would end up with a bad 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5swXAUTnZ
sore throat and I still wouldn't mind."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡatjVFpsQ5m
G-Dragon smiled back at 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1QM4jtVIO9
me and I realised that I wasn't mad at him anymore. It looked like I 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZwRqBbkxn
really couldn't stay mad at him. And I was glad that all the hate faded 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJDqwPbFPj
away.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl2yS5O5rJN
After dessert, we all 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9tKRJtUYm
just sat there and started to chat. For once, it felt really good to be 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpgXsVPNjbX
on speaking terms with everyone again. We were soon talking about what 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtcaOkpyfv
happened yesterday. After going through all that and talking about it, 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx1Xq8Kzpvk
it all seemed rather funny and we all laughed about it. Although, the 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVabVCvtK8A
part where G-Dragon had made me dive into the pool seemed to hurt a 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU51fNIL3VQ
little, I knew I would grow out of it someday.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYcifgtP89V
"Hey, may I ask?" Seungri asked. "How did Lee manage to keep our managers at YG for so long?"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqodkmZWB1I
"Not sure, I'll make sure to ask her later on," I said.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3qbWt9Uvo
"Yesterday, was just hilarious," said Zoey, wiping away a fake tear after laughing. "We should try that again some time."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIS5XlL0JeB
"But this time, not at the water park," I said.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH91ffIG4SD
"Then where?" Daesung asked. "The water park was so much fun."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkIW7pJm4cR
"I suggest we try to figure that out later," I said. "We have stuff to do."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPE76ywKse2
"What stuff?" TOP asked.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOaDKrw62ZP
"The song. Don't tell me you all forgot?"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbtwILKDIq
"Oh, the song!" Mike slapped his forehead. "I myself forgot about that."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI82pYps5cj
"I thought both you and G-Dragon were going to work on it," said Christine.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhdPiO9mtMo
"Ya, but I have a better idea," I said.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyyYLd5zm5V
I felt Taeyang look at me and I turned to look at him.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5phrkq1xNe
"Are you really going through with that?" Taeyang asked, as he whispered.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6eXMJUe0KP
"I don't think that's a big deal, is it?" I whispered back. "I think it's a good idea."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM69ASkJEEO
"Wait, what's going on?"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWRfthw3MtR
G-Dragon asked, as he noticed Taeyang and I whispering to each other. 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQMXtqPOuK3
"And what idea have you come up with for the song?"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnrV9VeYbkb
"I thought we should all1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi36JFJwZsv
work on the lyrics together. I feel it will be a lot better if we all 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡArlw3uFLTV
bring out our ideas and put them as lyrics."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHH9OGoIvQQ
"But why do we have to put our heads together if there is you and G-Dragon who are better at song writing?" TOP asked.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsM4drfzr1Z
"I don't know, I feel we1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaiMFPtypm9
have to put our all in the song by coming up with lyrics from everyone.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26Q18H37ZS
It might sound a little strange, but we all have to help each other out1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmLFAFohIK
on this. If there is anyone objecting to it, you're free to do so."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIL9L6ACB8i
"I don't get it though,"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM4RGAgtFYv
said G-Dragon, as he leaned back on his chair and stared at me. "What 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcA5pf1erXP
made you come up with this idea when we already agreed on who will write1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR5o5mAC8RP
the lyrics?"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOWbPBD8icB
"I don't know, it kind of felt right, I think," I said.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7nCzgcfmpu
"You think?" G-Dragon now raised his eyebrow at me. "Is there something you aren't telling us?"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLlxYvt28JZ
This time, I also raised1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqNTlzlTmT
an eyebrow. I had told Taeyang about my idea earlier not because I was 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMdxzvJ8Xs
trying to avoid G-Dragon but for everyone else's benefit.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtYMcFjvJa0
"What makes you think I have other intentions?" I asked.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwKCltdwrl
"Maybe you might still be mad at G-Dragon," Zoey blurted out.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCJqjpKNeF
I sighed. Great! These were the times you wished Zoey never had such a big mouth.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNTIqqTeith
"Is that true? Are you still mad at me?" G-Dragon asked.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDyBLX0FAR
"No, not any more," I answered. "At first I was, but now I'm over with what happened yesterday."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtP2ItGv5q
"Or are you still mad that you don't want to work on the lyrics with me?"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5CrVb1Zd00
By the way G-Dragon 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwimDbzT7dw
spoke, I could tell he was hurting. But it was pretty hard to try to 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDsJdzHBlSZ
convince him that yes, I was mad at first and I wanted to avoid him. And1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlP9fksxgIC
no, since I'm no longer mad at him any more and that the idea of all of1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFO35VkpFoQ
us working on the lyrics for the song seemed like a good idea.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQ372LRxq6
"I just told you, I'm not mad anymore."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXeHw0GZNX
"Why is it that I don't believe you?"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbpC5GuepQ
"Maybe, it's because you're objecting to my idea and you just want to make up what would be a valid reason for it."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrfssxJIrN
"Mmm, looking at it through Sam's point of view, I see nothing wrong if all of us work on the song," said Daniel.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT0r9l8NuXD
"Then why come up with this in the first place?" Zoey asked. 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtqoaXdJ529
"I already told you, I just think it's a good idea," I repeated.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWG87X66MQ
"Well, I'm not up for it," said G-Dragon folding his arms. "I object."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJLLuZmkaQ
"Well, you should have said that instead of blaming me for coming up with this as an excuse."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEN7SImxn9B
"I think you are, and you're not telling us."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjxFjhqFuZ
"Are we going to go through this again? You just objected."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYSY3rzG8Of
"I could go through this over and over again if I had to until you tell us the truth."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wsDevUT6t
"What truth?" I asked.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMM9HgXazWS
"Okay, guys this is getting a little out of hand," said Taeyang. "Don't forget, we aren't the only ones here."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYPMwz24yf
Taeyang was right. I was1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jPa0cshH2
so caught up in the argument with G-Dragon, I forgot that we were in 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiz9Wj6mh8X
the hotel dining room. I looked around us and a few heads from other 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5SjfzyeqPb
tables turned to ours. It seemed like our argument caught some people's 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcYlINESwBH
attention.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9iXCl1Om8I
"Tae's right," I said. "We shouldn't be arguing, much less here."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSCs8f1UE97
"Then let's conclude on this once and for all then," said Deasung. "Those who favour Sam's idea, raise your hand."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡURaVeYhAwM
Taeyang, Daesung, Daniel1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0xYlHHjph
and Mike, raised their hands. That meant Zoey, TOP, Seungri and 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTB62y9yRvK
Christine were on G-Dragon's side. What a bummer!1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNJuoaLxFp
"Whoops, looks like it's a tie," said Zoey playfully with a smirk.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡONuL7ho1zE
"It's not funny, Zoey," I said shaking my head.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWo87j6YsTF
"Well, this just got serious," said Seungri, scratching his head.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQ2hbMUvi1
"It's a tie, so I suggest we..." I was then interrupted by G-Dragon.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvpOdHyAWfj
"No, this time you aren't going to say or suggest anything," said G-Dragon.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiqVJ6xPdWM
"But I....." 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0iYBsxTIg0
"Sam, sshh," said Zoey, 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhS51Qq5UVw
pressing her index finger to her lips, telling me to keep quiet. "You've1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGf05mihQS
talked way too much, don't you think?"1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVIlrskmV0K
That felt like a slap in1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg4Z1KTK8kG
the face and I felt my face burn up in embarrassment. It looked like 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9JHr9orc3S
the tables had turned on me today. At first I was mad at G-Dragon and 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3yg2srHAnY
the other Toxins, but now, I was the one pissing everyone off. What 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3sgplzfVY
happened to me being the leader? I know G-Dragon was older, but what 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDdCj3e9Cb2
about what I thought was best for the whole group?1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡImTOJjk5v0
"I suggest we think about it and when we meet tomorrow, we vote over it again," said G-Dragon.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwupGILad7o
"That's fine with me," said Mike.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjrTZdujgG
Everyone else agreed, 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLWFKIAQe3U
except me since I was told not to say a word. I personally also thought 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDsiUTeZhQ4
it was a good idea to try and think things through. But what if it 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzemCw5m833
didn't work out tomorrow? What would we do then? I had a terrible 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ2PUTE6QXy
feeling that things weren't going to go as planned and we needed a Plan 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvkYKnIAKYF
B, just in case.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFK2Py2YYW
"Okay, then, we will meet tomorrow," said G-Dragon as he stood up to leave.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKmZWwWVAIH
"But I've something to say," I blurted out.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5G47v60eTX
"Not now, Sam. We will 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfplXdZmCSs
meet tomorrow," said G-Dragon as he looked at me and walked away from 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhRTPRYIIP0
the table heading for the door. I had to admit, the way he looked at me 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Awo93MXFG
gave me goosebumps.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeo9nz79e3k
"Way to go, Sam," said Zoey, as she also stood up from the table. "You just made him upset. I need to go calm him down."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOWlGYvZQq
Zoey went after G-Dragon and I sat back on my chair, feeling defeated and powerless. 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcNKlnfGuLa
One by one everyone 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6CmisgHlp
started to leave the table without even saying a word. It was awkward 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKuW1kPYDol
with the argument that had taken place, and saying something didn't seem1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXggiFsxSL
appropriate.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2yu88ZUnk
I was soon left with Taeyang at the table and I looked at him, wondering why he hadn't left.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJrYpPxTAK
"Aren't you supposed to have left by now?" I asked.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzW3GMyPcY
"And leave you all alone? No way," said Taeyang.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xPQE4gTEd
"Why do I feel like I've just become the villain?" I asked, my thoughts elsewhere.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR7wxHBGMeS
"You aren't a villain. You just feel bad that not everyone agreed to your idea."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNBsQc1vksw
"It's not that. I pissed1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7lgSmcw2X
almost everyone off and that makes me feel bad. How I wish I could take1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKgrEQLwSOb
everything I said back. Too bad I can't control time."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl2rA5NNSMz
"You never knew that was going to happen. Let's just hope for the best that it would all seem like one bad dream."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3pzqI8ZbeQ
"Thanks, Tae" I said, trying to put up a smile. "It means a lot that you're still here."1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSact0XY33z
Taeyang placed his hand 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc1dSwqDZ3G
on my shoulder, an assurance that he was there for me no matter what. He1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNlZGwzZivp
smiled back at me and I felt comforted.1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Pkfwr0GHF
I knew I had to hope for1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSvuS1979pv
the best just like Taeyang had suggested. But I couldn't ignore the gut1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7U6i3iyWhC
feeling that things weren't going to run smooth and easy from now 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhMF0xVw3m
on wards. Especially now that G-Dragon was angry at me. He seemed more 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEj8WigRrsH
angrier at me than I was at him. I feared for the worst and I knew this 1085Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6LqXRjEJ1y
was just the beginning of a heavy storm ahead.
