Zoey's P.O.V1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNE1kkqRWbe
Waking up this Monday 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwslr7TvLd
morning was hectic. I didn't want to get out of bed, but in one way or 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjFqUjQzaI2
another, I would have to. I lay awake, thinking. I didn't want to face 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8cOQksteM9
off the challenges for today knowing that one of them was dealing with 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvsRMN88V0
Jehan. Since I still have the teddy bear, I wasn't as free as I expected1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMz8PucVHJ
myself to be.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡChsIm5vtlm
I couldn't stop 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGa3NPfIvf
wondering what Seungri and TOP were doing at the mall yesterday. As much1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0XV1svvgY7
as I wanted to believe that it was a coincidence, I couldn't help but 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfVlsKKrXu
feel that something was wrong.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZPHTszTRq
Could they have known 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQVSylNNy6
about Jehan? And if they did, then how? I shook my head. Maybe all that 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcRtULE5XEC
was nothing but a coincidence and I was just being paranoid. If they 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmcd7xhkGX
really had found out about Jehan, they would have been asking questions 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItNAP59XO3
about him and what he does while we were shopping. But they didn't. We 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJoSIoVRqw
just had our usual conversation.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgp7sH1QNVV
I brushed off all those 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnnFBuc2aPJ
thoughts aside when the alarm on my phone rang telling me to get up. The1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfxsByhzmEk
last time I had ever put up an alarm was the morning of my last day of 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3KfVHjxR1e
high school. Eversince I became a musician, I never put up an alarm when1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPKlyyOVE8z
I knew I had someone around to wake me up. Like Sam.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCmaMrpOgcZ
But now that she wasn't 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDmV3quFp3
here, I had to wake up on my own. Most of the time, I would do so 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWFYr4WTQ9
without her help. But when I overslept, she was always there to wake me.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZbVaSuvLid
Anyway, right now, I was just too troubled in my sleep that I must have1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1uYnKcnkSu
woken up early before the alarm rang.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0NmzcifYmh
I sat up on my bed and 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRtDMwj6xV
switched off the alarm. I checked the empty bed beside mine and I 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡidQWl8DweF
couldn't help but realise how much I miss Sam. I don't know why I was 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDZekHc7lJ
feeling this way, but I hated the fact that I was missing her so bad. 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ZWlz7msvt
Not after what happened yesterday at the mall and all over social media.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwm69fAF74Z
After seeing her with 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0k10I67yZL
G-Dragon yesterday broke my heart further into tiny pieces. As much as I1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQ2cmRHOAl
knew she was only there just to try and resolve things with G-Dragon, I1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJaTHARZLC
was filled with fury seeing the two of them together. And to make 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvUsfkTjjgs
matters worse, after I had left the mall, I went online and there were 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSBbQDiEn5t
pictures of the two everywhere. They were a trending topic for the whole1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWooLphMDQC
day. That left me devastated.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQEYlcMaWdr
I couldn't stop looking 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmkhO1mCDqh
at pictures online even when I came back to the hotel. I read so many 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5rKVGmIvkw
comments. As much as there were so many haters around (like myself), so 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSPyvoBRoN
many people couldn't stop talking about how adorable the two looked 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO14HXYED11
together. I couldn't help but admit to myself that they were right. They1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfA3BdrXIe1
really did make a cute couple. And that left me envious. I wished it 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQRs4Lvw3s7
was G-Dragon and I. Not G-Dragon and Sam.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqYrKVIm25
That sent me boiling to a1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4oBTMOiSZF
point where I almost threw my phone away. When Christine came to see me1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGEVPMxKyg
in my room and found me in an angry fit, I told her how painful I felt 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNF3enTehRe
seeing G-Dragon and Sam together.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi51hkblUTH
Christine had told me to1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbjn5mpJzS
cool down and that I shouldn't be jealous. She told me that Sam was 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHgsMGMwDY
only with G-Dragon because she was only trying to resolve things. I told1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFUbkFUeE2B
her that I already knew that. Christine quickly left me to myself when 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVE9jNrsHS2
she realised that she couldn't calm me down. So I was alone for the rest1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw7j92gJ0ip
of the day, not speaking to anyone. I didn't even join the others for 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXvfjGRfGYd
supper. I had ordered for my supper to be taken up to my room.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQvlozhEFO
And now, I had to face 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS0pnFZREuh
another challenge of seeing everyone today, most especially Sam, since 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxgP5FeICA
we have to finish up on the dance routine and start working on the music1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU3Fz1f3G5i
video as soon as possible. I have to put up with all this today when I 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlluYYdg3D
was still so upset.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXLaDodKEQ3
I quickly got out of bed and went in the showers, hoping the cool water would cool down all the boiling anger in me.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP3EA5wPfjB
After I was done, I 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdNax5uHaLM
quickly dressed up. And carrying my purse with me, I went to meet the 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXeJn9CFqo
others at the dining table for breakfast.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpZwLqkMkjb
I found them already 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6sLWfoXxvM
settled. When I came to sit, everyone mouthed out a "good morning" to 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXsklW9kn48
me, except Sam. And I replied back with a smile on my face.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQcjjHjzoG
I felt a little awkward 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2X1yEJ4ISb
when I looked at Sam who sat across the table next to Collins and hadn't1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYq7zerSgbC
said a word. She was busy with her breakfast, her usual bacon, eggs and1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1qzvQHjEB
toast with juice. I realised she hadn't even looked up at me once and 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpZL7LlbIDD
that also felt weird.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWBcA4pwUYd
I know that she and I 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6GFiWoaRaS
aren't talking to each other at the moment, but I expected her to say a 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKCenXsMPKu
"good morning" or even look at me to acknowledge that I was around. She 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnKzClSjXO3
was one person even if we ever had an argument, she would at least try 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDKGLDwcPd
to say something to me. The fact that she didn't greet me, made me feel 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLX1Lh293S
like something was wrong.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPQc5SbGGM
I poured myself a cup of1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJbnUrz2SF7
coffee, trying to ignore what I was feeling at the moment. I got some 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcb65JtsZQS
slices of toast and ate my breakfast.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWggzObw0ih
"Hey, Sam," said Mike, who sat right next to her. "Have you seen what people have been saying about you and G-Dragon?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtY2oTREUKQ
My heart almost skipped a1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6IILYes3I
beat and I almost choked on my coffee. What was Mike getting at? I know1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMp1c6xBKEu
he does things just to annoy me sometimes, but this time, he's gone way1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKsNQSrlpkO
too far. I was over here! Hello!1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJ8hBlmTa6
"You don't have to remind me," Sam said as she looked at her brother. "I've decided not to go online today."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡswAvi6TIbh
"For one who doesn't like attention, you might just disappear off the face of the earth," said Collins.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡULEBKQhZru
"I can do that," said Sam, staring up at the ceiling obviously building castles in the air.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxcCVmB4UJE
"I have no doubt about it."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcuZYFmUyPl
"But I don't see why you1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5NSNR9Xyiw
have to," said Daniel. "Just because people make stories about you and 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomqES6MG72
G-Dragon dating, doesn't mean that you are."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsb252D8OIh
"One thing about fans is1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKSp7rzNEl8
that they can make a story so believable, even those who don't know 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNTScqlXdR8
what's going on, might end up believing it," said Christine.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcc9RcuBGG
"I know," said Lee. 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3BxHuGjZtB
"Right now, some k-pop news sites are already taking this to the next 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJz7hAnSWD
level. But they all say they couldn't be too sure about it until they 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHs2iRvhN5K
get an official statement from you and G-Dragon."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwut14grvj0
"Wow, that's serious," said Sam.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRj7xDvBdl
"But right now, we have no time for interviews," said Collins. "We have a music video to work on."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKRNRekgQE
"I can work with that," said Sam, with a smile on her face.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2gtyZxQZeN
"Alright, guys, finish your breakfast. You know the drill."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5y4AeQder6
"Aye, aye," said Daniel.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWyoq27kYR
"Well, you're quiet today, Zoey," said Christine as she looked at me. She sat directly across from me on the table.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFl3aYTLboU
"Do you have a problem with that?" I asked, eyeing Christine.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡETzEQpz92o
"You're just too quiet, that's all."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXsz45XnYc
"You should be quiet more often," said Collins as he got up from the table. "It kind of suits you."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2fGoDtDm0
I frowned at Collins. "Thanks. I'll try doing so more often. That's if I really want to."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVeL9Thq84H
"Now that's the Zoey I know," said Mike, raising his eyebrow at me and smiling.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2dsNX7sE2
I stuck my tongue out at1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡig7tOzhWfZ
him but he continued to smile mockingly nonetheless. I noticed that the1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtO6h8dtfAh
others were laughing and smiling at the whole thing, except Sam. She 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8BWIk27VA
still wasn't looking in my direction.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPe6p3yyFSM
Soon after breakfast, we1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxscQiBbNW
left for YG. In the SUV, Sam sat at the back with her brothers. We were1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgzHPhQXoh
all chatting happily in the car but she was quiet the whole way. She 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDGbqDQXeU
was like that nowadays, always lost in thought. I wondered what she 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9d6K2xF1Cs
could be thinking about. Sam was one person who never really shared what1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ80ZhR7PVOj
she thought. When you asked her about it, she would usually say 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtXsXzXowfs
"nothing" and say no more. But if she really wanted to share with you, 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPY3Fl2pV0C
she would.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdnMcBixfz
We arrived at YG and we 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNIFrXcaDz
found ourselves back at the dance studio we were practising in on 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIV3f33wdfz
Saturday. We found our dance instructor and all the BigBang members with1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOXizYDxyjU
the rest of the backup dancers, waiting for us.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpn7uhu01ja
When everyone was 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5O1JsVURHv
exchanging greetings with each other, G-Dragon didn't respond to me when1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51N9nmcpBm
I said "hi" to him. Given with what happened yesterday, I bet he was 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3oMd8G9oDC
still mad at me for how I behaved towards Sam. He didn't even want to 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPGvlJ7sVe
hang out with us soon after Sam had left.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXA0rBKWxu4
He not responding to me 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBYa6K58rTL
felt awkward and I longed for him to at least give me some attention. He1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxl3xIq8v6
didn't say "hi" to Sam either but just nodded his head when she greeted1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDt0P1aoo6M
him. At least that was acknowledging someone even if they weren't 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5UB0BA61x
talking to each other. And he was staring at her the whole time even 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZI7rPf0nt
when she wasn't looking. I thought of throwing a shoe at him, but I just1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkin7eo2ShU
looked away instead.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiVrN3Wz2wU
We went straight to 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vJ9PjJKyp
practising for almost a good five hours. And those proved to be the 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRBgB8mpyeu
hardest five hours of my life. Since the dance routine starts with 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD3CJui56Dz
G-Dragon and I, it was really hard having him so close. I realised that I1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIUPmTx4cf
still had feelings for him. At some point during practise, I almost 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8FVr38NRX
hugged him, but I brought myself not to. And that wasn't the worst part.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡik6I4JHkTS
During pratice, I 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi941o2RJ0O
noticed that G-Dragon still couldn't take his eyes off Sam. This was 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgR1SEjwYDa
getting to the point where I wanted to scream at him to snap out of it. I1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWBbyUGf8Im
wondered what he saw in Sam and that sent me thinking.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8tqkxcIuUl
G-Dragon wasn't the only1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsW1Lzfgax3
one who liked Sam. Come to think of it, Daesung also liked her. 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjcwqwgiKX
Probably even Seungri and TOP, given that Seungri had a beautiful crown 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk9mNSJwhEj
made just for her and TOP flirts with her whenever he gets the chance 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡetdxlOprjZ
to. Taeyang already had Hyo-rin and always takes Sam like a sister. What1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwNNQyhcOT
did Sam have that even most of the BigBang members like her so much?1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡroZPCkbFM4
As her best friend, I 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4eFcNaS8yH
should be aware of her qualities. She was nice and friendly to whoever 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFcqwCqI6e3
approached her. She is very pretty and had a great body, though she was 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjb0IKtJTfO
never ever fully aware of her physical beauty. She always thought she 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvQEzOGkXP
was like any other ordinary girl but she was more than that.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi71rODW5Vy
She is also smart, 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcfVluBwl5V
caring and always understanding. She is a great leader and one who 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyz7pcS8Pfl
always had our backs whenever we needed it. I don't know how many times 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9GFQnDfiV
she had always tried to get The Toxins out of trouble. I agree that even1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8jMwCFrfc
if it looked like we don't appreciate what she does, we really do.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwySuwMXFto
Sam has a lot of good 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9NMmkAMlht
qualities. Maybe that's why she is liked and loved by everyone. Even her1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKdXVPGWhi
fans. She is honest, when she wanted to. She is also a pretty good 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQRqDONvVX
liar, only when it was necessary to do so. And she is one who wouldn't 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkofkQ1qCsd
want to hurt anyone around her.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡit7m57MhUu
Realising this made me 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfhHQhsZMvY
feel a little guilty as I looked at Sam who was dancing in front of me 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxxLiAox4r1
with Taeyang beside her. I looked at her face and she had this smile 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCIlFQ3hbq
that reflected her innocence. I realised that I had been giving Sam a 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEuIivY9zXl
real hard time after I found out G-Dragon likes her and not me. She is 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4iaXsngiBg
my best friend and would do nothing to hurt me. I know she was only 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtm5ZqktZbV
looking out for me like she always does, but I am just too ignorant to 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ycaXYdPKN
realise it till now.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtHyouEfy99
"Wait, hold on a minute guys," said the choreographer. We all stopped dancing as instructed.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDdSlaCHp1
"Zoey, you aren't 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa2j3E8ETh7
concentrating," said the choreographer as he looked at me. "This is the 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLeoUiMeF4
second time you have made the same mistake."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3L47gHVPTp
"Oh, sorry," I said, scratching the back of my head feeling embarrassed. "I'll try to be more cautious next time."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK4ejTHZFIJ
"Okay. Let's continue from where we left off."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJiVHSto6qO
It was lunch the time we1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9aSgRNhx1x
broke off for a break. The choreographer left and the others were 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaKPDBRFWWD
talking to some of the backup dancers. I noticed Sam at the corner of 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK1Pvioq2Nj
the room with Christine and some of the backup dancers talking. It 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKtRPF3iXQh
looked like they were having one hell of a funny conversation because 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUGMZUx4Cd
they were all laughing.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5NwQcoxMJZ
"Hey, why are you here all alone?" came TOP as he came to stand right next to me.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6lICGc36rB
"Nothing," I replied, looking down at my sneakers. "I just want to be alone today."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVqbveDvleq
"Still not talking to Sam?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfPu9NvblI
"Nope."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtyjs94XRmG
TOP's lips rose to a smile. "You really are stubborn."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNlOGTQArnZ
"Too bad it's in my DNA." I smirked.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbA3XgtCL1k
"And how long do you think you're going to put up with it?" TOP folded his arms as he looked at me.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq3Doo1nW0k
"Maybe till we go home." I shrugged my shoulders.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbicoQjLS4V
"I doubt it. Judging by the way you performed today, you looked really preoccupied that you made several mistakes."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡebjK1aC8Qv
"Being preoccupied is Sam's thing."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTyxEdPqmCf
"I know. But you aren't 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZSNSME7V1
yourself, that's for sure. The Zoey I know wouldn't be here all alone. 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWVwTlTj7Rd
You would be chit chatting like you always do."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmj0dmL9JQM
"What if I just want to be alone for today?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZlLrOn48b5
"It's okay. Everyone has those kinds of days. But you make it look like being alone sometimes is a bad thing."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwtL39riNh
I frowned. "Why?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDlRD8YnsU
"Because you look miserable."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVtkwH6Vi2G
I didn't expect that coming from TOP. My mouth was agape as I looked at him.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Ipj6ndRth
"Miserable!"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZt0EM1zQR
"Ya." TOP nodded his head. "It clearly shows."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYAhUvzlCRE
I thought for a moment 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf1E6WPs3It
and went back to looking at Sam and Christine with the backup dancers. 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1jWrnK0t2
Mike, Daesung, Seungri and Daniel had also formed their own little 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRbbafNqEKH
circle and were laughing and chatting too. Taeyang and G-Dragon were 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJHUtWPpoiZ
with some of the backup dancers, having a normal chat.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8fyEnNCp8g
Seeing all this in front1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7JCAzhMInK
of me made me realise that TOP is right. I am definitely miserable. By 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdf0FhJj046
now, I would be with the others, chatting. But here I was, all alone. 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBzdMD9n0Cr
Until TOP came to talk to me.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWX96G3tdZ
"I guess you're right," I said. "I am miserable."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡecB3W4tjuS
"Don't worry about it. Aren't you going to resolve things with Sam?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmR49MGjGuu
"I don't know," I said 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTVClnt3GC2
as I looked at Sam who was laughing out loud. "I'm still mad at her, but1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDptKHpliJc
something in me says that I can't stay like this for long."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUCZ07J7E9
I told TOP what happened in the morning and how it felt weird that Sam didn't say a word to me nor even looked at me.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2FWcSJORSN
"I felt so bad about it," I said, shaking my head.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgh6pK58l7
"Then why don't you talk to her?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2vFR1k5bBx
"Pfft!" I rolled my eyes. "Why should I? Sam always does all the talking."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfoCHGOTZL4
"Really? You think Sam would do that this time around? Besides, she wasn't really at fault with all this."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡftLYyFwlsU
"I know."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTtUMRVHOWr
"So? Are you going to try and talk to her yourself?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWYaMsfKIX
"I'll think about it."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9nNIWEMbt
"Hey, guys," came Seungri, suddenly calling out to everyone in the room. "Who wants pizza?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtiRb3Ne4Qq
Everyone muttered out "me!" really loud. Seungri smiled and said he would bring the pizza.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxBuMmyHjaw
"Mind if you guys can help me?" Seungri asked as he came up to TOP and I.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy34NAeSLSU
"Sure," I said. I really needed to get out of here for a while and breathe.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrYy7SKzMCL
The three of us went out1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYONMiX8kl
of the room and headed to the elevator to take us downstairs. Seungri 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJ1j2Vwidd
already had his phone out calling the pizza parlour to take the order.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHf6rdgtZi
As soon as we reached the ground floor, we stuck around in the lobby waiting for the pizza.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfxnHfQwAlk
"I'm so hungry," said Seungri, staring at his watch.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBn3EeZk3St
"Chill, you just ordered1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8xRX9E7aUX
pizza like right now," said TOP who was sitting right next to me on one1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Ctzn3Juo5
of the chairs in the waiting area of the lobby.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ajJY6TsAi
"But I'm so hungry."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg4U83ZSzyi
"Trust me, you aren't 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqtMv8X0jSo
the only one," I said as I looked at Seungri who was still standing. 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZk3dK09bi6
"Sit down or else you're going to drain the last remaining blood you 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvE4sDsLPF
have."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡig7Mzns83P
"Well, that's mean," said Seungri as he sat next to me. "What's up with you?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bMpFkEd33
"Nothing," I said as I folded my arms.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbDmk484ZZ2
"She's cranky, don't mind her," said TOP.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbG3Nb8OfyY
"I'm not cranky. Just having an awful day."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TRzyvAdlG
"Ya, we can see that," said Seungri with a smirk on his face.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2R3kvFyTk
I didn't say anything as1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHd4jwAlvox
I shook my head. All of the sudden, I felt my phone vibrate against my 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwsqPkLiSjq
thigh in the pocket of my sweat pants. I took out my phone. Jehan was 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qQJ0Jk53U
calling.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIVOhxmKFv
"Isn't it that French guy we met yesterday at the mall?" TOP asked, looking at my phone screen.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2oQCoDj7Bu
"Can you please not look!" I said as I turned the phone screen away from TOP's eyes.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8HfIhxP3DO
"Okay, well you better answer that call."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibTLBIhQ3v
I stood from the chair and answered Jehan's call when I was a few feet away from the two.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXf5x836Pd
"Hello," I answered.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZMM3NYlnC
"Hey, Zoey," said Jehan. "Are you busy today?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcPhkI24PT
"Ya, I'm very busy," I answered. "Why?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0zULbk3tQs
"We have to meet today, ASAP."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3Nazo2LyC
"But I can't. I have a lot to do today and I don't think I'll manage to meet with you."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbrcn3UGCxc
"I don't care. I need that teddy bear today. Not tomorrow, but today."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHG0g4ds34
I knew Jehan was going 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrKTNnYTmC
to call and demand for the teddy bear. Luckily, I carried my purse with 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4ZgxGyYEk
the teddy bear in it. I hadn't removed it from my purse since yesterday 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Fgvk6DdAQ
and I checked to see if it was still in there this morning. The purse 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3fAZHHW1o3
was upstairs in the dance studio.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyw9pbrqCjE
"Okay, what time do you want to get the teddy bear?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFqTyu9UsW
"I'm coming to YG to get it."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjvHaRqyek
"What!" I was horrified and equally surprised. "No way. You can't come here."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5kxusorA2
"Fine. If you have a better idea, then call me or text in the next thirty minutes. I have to get that teddy today."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLmJc4XeZfy
"You don't have to remind me," I snarled.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyu1KSOdQMT
He cut the call and I 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01z8MdaFHQ
looked at my phone like I was ready to throw it out of the lobby through1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ6fiz5C2cS
the open entrance doors. This was bad. Real bad. He wanted to come here1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqYpdeEHfKt
to get the teddy. That was going to be dangerous. If anyone were to see1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfF5sh4hWQW
him they would start to ask questions.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtq6dyDJGlZ
"Zoey," came Seungri's voice behind me.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvAtju2IYE
I turned around and there stood Seungri and TOP staring at me.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzlZ8XUqfNl
"What?" I asked.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqshLJTSmzv
"Was that Jehan you were talking to?" TOP asked.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xOcK6CHMY
"Um, ya. Is there a problem?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZuuxG04Oq
"You two didn't seem to be having a normal conversation," said Seungri. "It sounded like you were arguing or something."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkA1ulYIrdw
"Arguing? Pfft. No," I gave out a small laugh trying to hide my fear. "It was just some silly misunderstanding."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKZ6dfuxn8
"Come on, Zoey," said TOP. "That was no ordinary misunderstanding and I know an argument when I see one."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg6Tncv27hD
"Guys, it's nothing. You're worrying for no reason."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWQkwq7jF4
"Oh, ya? Then why were you talking about that teddy bear then? It's that small cute teddy he had sent you, right?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP6oJ6UzRhu
Dang it! I was cornered 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkagSZjZEE
now. They had heard about the teddy. I couldn't come up with a lie. If 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNrZ7UuDON
anything, I'm a terrible liar. Looks like the truth will always come to 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJhYmVMLw6
light no matter how much you try to hide it.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6o5wOCamB
"Tell us, Zoey," said Seungri softly. "It can show on your face that something is wrong."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbEO6EO288d
I sighed as I looked down on the floor. "Fine. But don't tell anyone."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzkRUyNNHK
"Okay. Now tell us what's going on," said TOP.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY4RWvm1Fw6
We went back to settle down on the chairs. We were at a reasonable distance away from the receptionist so I could talk quietly.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVMKVqrayik
I told them everything 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFwniGaggt
from what happened in Paris till now. They listened carefully and hadn't1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyyDXCG2hu
said a word until I finished the whole story.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuefTGa2vMh
"Have you told anyone about all this?" Seungri asked.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY973KWKzlF
"Just you two," I answered.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn2sK1FtjIz
"Wow, this is serious," said TOP, trying to take it all in. "He's a diamond smuggler?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohdBdCvRkn
"Surprising, right?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIiqmoVwlj2
"He seemed so nice when we met him," said Seungri.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT8uCs8MtXP
"We should involve the police," said TOP.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7RAvyrQlgB
"No! We can't!"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSvJZ5RLBru
"Why?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqD7aJx4pYu
"You know word goes out 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJO6BRTalo
fast. The next thing we know, it's going to be all over social media and1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvKzygsCP48
might give The Toxins a bad name. I would rather do this quietly."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0OVLalRADe
"And how are you so sure he isn't going to use you again?" Seungri asked.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhtOdeU11N
"He assured me that this1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡac8MQnSmQA
will be the last time he will ever use me to do any of his dirty 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdJ8OCsFJD
business. I just have to give him the teddy bear and that's it."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRe64goudfi
"Give who the teddy bear?" came Christine's voice.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhdPSILpth
The three of us turned 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6xtXFpCVjz
and we saw Christine standing a few feet away from us. We hadn't heard 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvw5mRpVdCI
the elevator doors open nor her footsteps. How did she get here unheard?1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGbUKEePZxJ
"Christine, you're here?" I raised my eyebrows.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxyIRmJ0Ge
"Ya, I came to check up on you guys since some of us are really hungry," said Christine.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRk4DpX7Far
"The delivery guy hasn't arrived yet," said Seungri with a smile.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqbHM0hS3V
"What's this about some guy and a teddy bear?" Christine asked as she looked at me.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP4c9xR4qTn
"Ummm, it's nothing, Christine," I said, waving my hand in the air. "Just talking about some random stuff."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9de558Hhrl
"Random stuff involving a1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0hqxrdS8U9
teddy bear?" Christine shook her head at me as she folded her arms. "I 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9cMcCmWU1
clearly heard you talking about giving some guy a teddy bear and that 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbLD2B6YPp
you won't have to do his dirty business anymore. I know you're hiding 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx4CACsQ7eV
something from me, Zoey. So you better start talking."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUBu2Jz5kFN
I rolled my eyes and sighed so loud in frustration. How many people was I going to tell the truth to today?1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGIli1jW8DX
"Fine," I said, looking at Christine. "But please don't tell anyone about this."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwoib1q4r0h
"Okay, I won't."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PczasocCi
"Sit down."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbphuqWhOe
Christine sat right next to TOP and she looked at me with anticipation.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK4ojLUxoWz
"I got myself into trouble," I started.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDAnwshMdX5
"Great!" Christine threw her arms in the air. "What did you do now, Zoey?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt15CBeE2i1
"I got involved with a diamond smuggler."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVfNou8MFZ9
Christine's face soon 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4cLe1Yy4ck
drained of colour and she looked as white as a ghost. She tried to open 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rgIG0jWF4
her mouth to say something but she couldn't. Until....1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBjsK7VGYO
"What!"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOP2j2sgPr5
TOP quickly covered up 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnm2UZptfq4
her mouth before she could shout out anything else. The receptionist 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡna4NSyRagc
looked our way and soon went back to work. When he was sure she had 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtL5cOOOGdC
cooled down, TOP removed his hand from Christine's mouth.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7YIT92MSO
"Are you cool now?" TOP asked.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRFz3rxMZVv
"Cool?" asked Christine, sounding anxious. "I come here and hear about some diamond smuggler. How can I be cool?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhqENbju2r
"I know you're really mad at me right now, but you asked what was going on," I said, looking apologetically at her.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkM4rN4LNS2
"Of course I'm mad!" 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGiaovaGRxV
Christine whispered angrily at me. "I know you always get in trouble, 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDD2CkZ15Aq
but this by far is the worst one of them all."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBXvuETafym
"At least it's not a drug dealer," I said shrugging my shoulders.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjSRknzpfZA
"Is there a difference? Seriously, Zoey. How the heck did this happen?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMiZUsU5Io7
"It happened in Paris," I said. "Remember the guy I introduced you to at the fashion show?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGFjpRsMmXh
"Ya, I remember. What about him?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡStQB1b15FK
"He's the diamond smuggler," said TOP.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxaOseGa32
"WHAT!"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz4kEm4hqnn
"Ssh!" TOP, Seungri and I hushed at her at the same time, putting our fingers on our lips.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUDYEl9ghhw
"Guys, I can't help it, sorry," said Christine. "Wait, that handsome guy is the diamond smuggler?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUnpjj02XWY
"And the one I met at the café," I said.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvo4fvCTCjI
"So he is the one who sent us the teddy bear?" Christine asked.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuBUVT7dCGJ
"Yes," the three of us answered at the same time.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdTrcom5Z6
"But why does he want the teddy bear back?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDSZrmutoyU
"Because the teddy has diamonds in it," said Seungri.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDabepTCktf
"Wow, seriously?" Christine's eyes bulged out with surprise.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYh0eO8bVU5
"Ya," I said. "I planned1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ20P78CgEDZ
on giving him the teddy bear yesterday but I couldn't because these 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu0t3sM5gmD
guys showed up." I pointed at Seungri and TOP with my two thumbs.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18ICKHLrXr
"So you're the one who 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltPksJoQv7
got the teddy from our room yesterday," said Christine. "Lee was 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTiLVZDu8nB
searching for it and couldn't find it. She thought she must have 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZNstvx6l2
misplaced it somewhere. You even went to meet him? I thought you went 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWRosfUNf09
out with Seungri."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTiQGALl3i
"I lied."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqKNZRQkm1
Christine shook her head. "I knew something was up. You are really not good at lying."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwIH4ZoLeVB
"I know." I gave Christine a grim look, not feeling impressed about myself at all.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTz4yUKUffv
"Why didn't you tell us you were being threatened by this guy?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCn3ejZoqSX
"I wasn't supposed to. And besides, it was too dangerous. He threatened me with a gun in Paris not to tell anyone."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0Jxy0hwsd
"That's great. There are guns too. Blackmail would have been so much better."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXfYids0Cr
"I know. Now he wants the teddy bear back today. And I don't know what to do. He wanted to come here and get the teddy himself."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPbM2J7COyl
"Then why didn't you let him?" Christine asked.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrRFDJWzhMR
"That was going to raise a lot of questions if anyone saw him," said Seungri.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgM9To7iuYH
"Now where is she going to meet him now? She has to take that teddy bear away or else it could land us into more trouble."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW2HeZkuit8
"He said I should have a location as to where we meet," I said. "And I haven't thought of anything yet."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9PVr6lUq9x
"Why don't you meet after practice?" TOP suggested.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfvgba5lZhI
"But where?" I asked.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3P2HCaLOWD
"Tell him you will meet at the café. The one you had met him in last time. TOP and I will take you there," said Seungri.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGYCNQMruw
"I'm also coming with you," said Christine. "And don't refuse." She pointed her finger at me when I opened my mouth to object.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYW0xPy4kKZ
"Fine, but remember, don't tell anyone," I said.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWULleSGGx
"Got it," said TOP and Seungri at the same time. Christine nodded her head.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2UbVnMIVtY
I took my phone out and 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbT9V8lKk2
texted Jehan that we should meet at the café after practise some time in1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlaIVROtTV4
the evening. He replied saying that he would be there.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoXuIQWtJbR
"Okay, it's settled," I said as I put my phone back in my pocket.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEoMfeQ11Z8
"Yay! The pizza is here," said Seungri as he stood up and approached the pizza delivery man coming in through the entrance.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ30XaKk9zd1
Seungri had ordered ten 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjqoI7sF24q
large sized boxes of pizza, enough for everyone upstairs. And the 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYLUED2KOf
flavour, mac and cheese. Sam's favourite. Well, almost everyone's 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLoScRX3maw
favourite.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZcSwd9ZQAD
We helped Seungri with the pizza and went to the elevator which took us back up to the floor of the dance studio.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXSMG49DBKo
"When all of this is over, Zoey, you're going to get a scolding from me," said Christine, as we walked down the hall.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjM96zIlWUT
"I'll be ready for 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1LJGVvDSK
that," I said as I rolled my eyes. "I just can't wait to have everything1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1LJ6IKI8SN
back to the way they were. Before all the threatening."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhhmMxAjBb
"No, they won't," said Seungri. "You still have Sam to resolve things with."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWuDZwvG6pi
"And G-Dragon," TOP added.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrpMSEmQWf7
"Can we please not talk about that?" I asked. "You don't have to remind me all the time."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHTNjk3h8T
"Well, someone has to," said Christine.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZC52Qdqoq
"Just so you know, I'll agree to resolve things on my own terms."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVdXKFZe64
"Jeez," said Christine, rolling her eyes at me. "When you say that, I have to get ready for the unexpected."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPUfMuKXkY9
We found ourselves back 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm2oIpuvgxv
at the studio and this time, I found Sam talking to Taeyang. G-Dragon 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfbqP0z4djH
was still talking to some of the back up dancers and I could see him 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUWkZyIfUY
staring at Sam through the corner of his eye. Or was that me being 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7dCdfflYZ
paranoid?1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsyXGeeLGJM
Christine snapped her fingers right in front of me and I turned to look at her.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMxoCz2pyRd
"What?" I asked.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuT3Tn6jPGv
"You were frowning," Christine answered.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLT5hETc9hR
"Frowning? I wasn't frowning."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZjExk6LCpb
"Says the person who 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmjwcgFsmhl
couldn't stand seeing G-Dragon looking at someone else." Christine gave 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡynirYG45aV
me a smirk and left me standing all alone by the door, while she joined 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBJqZhpBM8
the others who had soon formed a circle around Seungri and TOP.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmq2dNVNGuh
Soon after lunch, we 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZXl8lgVAd
went straight back to practising. This time, for a good six hours. We 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9c92kQLgRh
had to do the dance routine over and over again to perfect it. This time1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMfcRt9Smc
around, I made sure not to make any mistake like I had been doing 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ63MukfBpjn
earlier. This time, everything was coming out perfectly and I don't know1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt92Q14R9bs
how many times we had to do the routine all over again. But despite the1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6KjuZaE9V
number of times we did it again, we had a whole lot of fun.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyg0peCuwbr
At some point in the 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqJevdOytq
afternoon, our two managers and Lee came over to check on us and they 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡArz8R1MnAn
were really impressed. Yang Hyun-suk thought filming the dance practise 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUL2VmI4S2
will be helpful and that they would release it after the music video. 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIAdeRo7Ai
The dance practise was shot and it came out perfect, but still, we went 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5vpxR33sS
back to practising until we could pratice no more.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMcoTbfoVPQ
It was five and the sun 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLwpduANTN
was setting when we were finally done for the day. I was so tired that I1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxMINXqXz9
was lying on the floor. My body aching everywhere. Luckily, I wasn't 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1biGYuiL3n
the only one on the floor. Christine and Daniel were lying on either 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHrq1X0oLV
side of me. We were all pretty tired.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNRmHsoeVkR
The choreographer had already left and the backup dancers also started to leave. G-Dragon and Taeyang left together.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM43aOirbXf
While I was resting and 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlcS3jVfIxo
gathering up any ounce of energy I had left, Seungri was standing next 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNEsHGEBDPM
to my head and looking down on me. I looked up at him with a puzzled 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3lZWlkxwZ
look on my face.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYALh2xFbE
"Get up, Zoey, we gotta go," he said.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdbBTt79YMX
"Go? Go where?" I asked.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZVCiCNNUx
Christine roughly nudged me on my side with her elbow, I looked at her with a whining look on my face.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUTHUGbBX3
"Ouch, that hurt!" I said.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqqtjImnDYG
"Are you forgetting, Zoey?" Christine asked, raising her eyebrows. "We have to go somewhere to do something."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4BXZYEEH2
It was then that I remembered that I was supposed to meet Jehan at the café. I totally forgot.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nusolKMm7
"Oh, ya!" I quickly sat up on the floor and Christine followed. "We have to go."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsLs6mtnW9P
"Go where?" Daniel asked, still lying down on the floor and looking at us.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJ0Yg7mqHB
"No where," I answered quickly. "We're just planning on going around the city for a drive."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhs3dicHZB
"I want to follow too," said Daniel.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKiWoprNwtz
"Where did you say you were going?" came Mike who had been talking with Sam and Daesung.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJONgjF9dl
I rolled my eyes. Seriously? The last thing I want is for everyone to follow and find out what's going on.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpXcGN5ETaX
"It's nothing really," said TOP. "We were planning to drive around the city. You don't have to follow."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1fBgj5VzC
"But this is not fair," said Daniel, sitting up quickly. "I also want to come along."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1qFx8K3u8
"Ya, me too," said Mike.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7lOPogJA5u
"Why don't you want 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62v0F5IAvh
these guys to go along?" Sam asked. I noticed that she still wasn't 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKSYdmjanAg
looking at me. "You're just going for a drive. I see no reason for them 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjEFSh5SQ3M
not to follow."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrC8pxMhNaN
I wanted to protest and 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSImnXk7a1v
refuse but then I realised that I wasn't supposed to talk to Sam. And 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCR9tLZegCE
refusing her was going to be pointless because I already know Seungri 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp1dutebLN3
and TOP weren't going to deny her so easily.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYDHWkoU5D
"Okay, they can come along," said Seungri.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNKnrTvvCL
Dang it!1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNAZumgNd5a
"Okay, you'll find me back at the hotel. I'll tell Collins that you had to go out," said Sam to the others, giving them a smile.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMUWYsYYlLj
"I can take you back to the hotel if you want," said Daesung, addressing Sam.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLT57xiYcu4
"Thanks, that's nice of 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz5fa9XukBo
you, Daesung," said Sam giving him a sweet smile. She turned to look at 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVu9GQ5dUbc
the others. "Have fun you, guys."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAX4ZNV7EJs
Sam and Daesung left the1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPcy33CCYL
room together and I couldn't help but look at the door and think to 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLbh8PZP7kv
myself that the two also made a nice pair.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxeiLm07Tx
"So, where are we going?" Mike asked.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujT5lP7JIT
"Please, don't ask any questions," I said as I turned to face him. "It's none of your business."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWltPfxrZh
"Mmm, seeing the look on your face, something's up," said Daniel.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6TlraEHVg
Christine stood up from 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp0lS2JswQM
the floor and said, "look guys, if we tell, you have to promise not to 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6PDrFTDj8
tell anyone. Not even Sam. No one."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsUStpDje9K
I looked up at her with my eyebrow raised. "Are you seriously going to tell them?" I asked.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYaSf9BBHx
"Do I have a choice? You know how persistent these two are and they are probably going to find out anyway."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBo9AYQvj1
"Ya, Christine's right," said Seungri. "And we also couldn't refuse Sam for them to come along."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZjwGyvnvQ
"You just couldn't refuse because you like her too much," I said, turning to face Seungri.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4pWDqojyml
Seungri shrugged and smiled. "What can I say? I've to obey the lovely queen, right?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCyVWEILuPP
I almost snapped back at him but I controlled myself and looked away.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7g2fn7iwDX
"Okay, can we focus on telling us what's going on?" Daniel asked.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡglc4M5tz4t
"Fine," I said. "Someone tell them. I can't keep repeating myself with all this."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3mamvQNcq
TOP told Mike and Daniel what was going on. The two brothers were shocked after what they heard.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzSycAMOyvr
"Oooh, you're in a lot of trouble now, Zoey," said Mike, looking at me and shaking his head.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYoFySSgSF9
"You don't have to remind me," I said rolling my eyes.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMnsi89DlBx
"I can't believe that guy is the diamond smuggler," said Daniel.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2oIY3Zf8qo
"I know," said Christine.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuARDNCSSn5
"You haven't told Sam about this?" Mike asked.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfDYmALGuK
"No. No one has to know," I said. "Not even the police."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPNypcKfvS
"I think you should have told Sam," said Daniel.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx21JBkz2Iq
"So that she can judge me? No way."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0lDD2gZAnG
"You know Sam can never do that," said Seungri. "She would have helped in any way possible."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUYT1q2WDH
"Don't try to convince 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxB4hKCZVw
her of anything," said Christine. "She probably won't listen like she 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9QvPXPvc2R
always does." I raised an eyebrow at Christine and she looked back at me1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEh1i9RwXvf
like she could hit me with a hammer.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpLOy6u9WuJ
"Okay, let's go," said TOP.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZBbhGRTM0
I got up from the floor 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTyZxU5E69Y
with Daniel and I took my purse. We soon left the room and headed 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIeU4oFA2Y
downstairs. Sam and Daesung had already left since there was no sign of 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBvflQsdJ7W
Daesung's car in the parking lot. Christine and I went with Seungri in 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKdShZFFQKS
his car while Daniel and Mike went in TOP's car.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUS46EqtVer
The cars soon left the 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPUKPNTMNBq
YG premises and in the car, I couldn't help but feel nervous. What if 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVbctABm8uI
things didn't work out like it did yesterday? I hope not. Every now and 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVywg9zSPY
then, I would open and check if the teddy bear was still in my purse.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYLjdPreKi
"Can you you please stop1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1zh02GECn7
doing that?" Christine asked from the back seat. "You might just drop 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa8Mldjb4q6
the teddy and lose it in the car."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmlXy18eyY
"Stop joking around," I said as I turned to look at Christine.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmuSjPYS2fp
"Well, then stop getting nervous. We're all here with you so there is nothing to be worried about."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgD9Qimxem
I leaned back on the chair and tried to relax. "You're right," I said. "I need to relax."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFSHZ8fu0j6
"Don't worry, we're almost there," said Seungri as the car took a turn.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVSLWb8XCT
"I just want to get this over with."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGMbyIUbdFj
We were soon packed 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0CnmPcPmbP
right outside the café and TOP's car parked right next to us. I took a 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHRgjIJoIS
deep breath. Christine came over and put her hand on my shoulder. I 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHsxZphrvSw
turned to look at her.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsn50j9DfGh
"Everything is going to be okay," said Christine giving me an encouraging smile. "If anything happens, we'll be here."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDWO1hyT6Px
"Thanks," I said with a smile. "I'm glad you guys are all here."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHRrTYnQEgw
Seungri also turned to 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhr8dBAkLVc
smile at me. I don't know what I would have done without them. Their 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzFt8vHktLs
presence here gave me a little comfort. But I felt a small hole in my 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkw7HzKCGuw
chest and I wished Sam was here too.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWydAZmFAn
I soon got out of the 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVX5oR2mYs
car and there was a sudden chill in the air. Maybe it's because the sun 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8EmafDUeun
was setting that it started to get cold. I had my purse in my hand and I1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLcWdFKgt1
looked towards the café. I hope everything will go as planned.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGjIBoZK2b7
Before I could find my 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3AP1a9fb7g
way into the café, TOP, Mike and Daniel waved at me through the windows 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOnxRURfeAm
of TOP's car and giving me a thumbs up. I smiled a little and waved 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJzX1iHaLc
back. At least that gave me the confidence to go ahead.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmWHG4zI2Rc
I quickly went in the 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYggoIRUrHZ
café and when I slowly stepped in, I looked around for Jehan. I spotted 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7WsjJfcls
him right next to the huge glass window where we had last sat down 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMNxdKLoVC
together. He was alone in his smart pressed black suit, as always.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlkhNfCYLz
I slowly approached the 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPbqRugn8T
table. His eyes never left me since I walked in the café. When I got to 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0G9hEWnCPa
the table, I sat facing him. My heart was beating so fast. I don't know 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zqXl2TFXV
why I was so scared that things might go wrong and Jehan wouldn't 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFb468Wv5p
hesitate to end my life right here.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6tEYrIoB5M
"I'm glad you could make it," said Jehan. "I was almost about to call my driver to come pick you up."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcfeSQcJV7d
"I was practising today," I answered.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJjCynmjOv
"You look really tired. It could show all over your face."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJC7xtnIi7N
"Thanks," I frowned at 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeF9B5XqzSJ
him. "Can we get this over with? I still have a busy day tomorrow and I 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFCbNijsz92
would like to get this teddy bear off my back."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaf9XfSjiwD
Jehan smirked. "Certainly."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdfdsG8prll
I quickly reached out 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZ8AhRd9r5
for the purse on my lap, opened it and gave him the teddy bear. Jehan 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeca7rtF5Nc
reached out to take it and I couldn't help but feel relieved.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GG4okGs0D
"There! You have your teddy," I said. "Can I go now?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm19D0g0aRQ
"Wait." Jehan held up a finger when I was just about to stand up and leave. I sighed.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2RYJbCrP4V
"What now?" I complained.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUmXELTjITA
"I need to check if all the diamonds are in here," said Jehan, shaking the teddy in his other hand.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXh2zJVyY8
"What do you think? That1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwHkAxixpz
I would steal from you?" I was really surprised that he didn't trust 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAo1TeNqnEk
me. "You pointed a gun to my head in Paris and I have done everything 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ri7gqZ0TK
you have asked until now. What makes you think I would steal your 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhpkdBxTFqE
diamonds? I have a life to live, may I remind you."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmeVf9hSBQJ
Jehan raised an eyebrow 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeSfWLNCxqK
at me. "Nice one, Zoey. You almost had me convinced. But I'm still going1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQCcqBLK0c
to check. I've to make sure all the diamonds are in here before I make a1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgbhcuLBXqT
fool of myself in front of my clients I'm selling these to."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn3UmS9zuXI
"Fine." I folded my arms on the table. "If you don't believe me, then check it yourself. I know I'm innocent."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDsi836I71
"I know you're." Jehan gave me a smile and I looked away facing the window. It was getting really dark outside so fast.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpZVt6O7KO6
I went back to looking 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdXWrpMA3qw
at Jehan who had laid the little teddy bear on the table and he dug into1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsylMyN6NAZ
the pockets of his suit and removed a small pocket knife. It didn't 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ54w2ar7bmk
surprise me that he carried that thing around.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjhaRlliet
Jehan slowly laid the 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKiiYO2iXX
blade onto the little teddy's belly and cut through its tiny suit, 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKXFmxFOzh
dissecting the teddy bear. This reminded me of science class back in 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhEfi6Lav2l
high school when we were told to dissect a frog. Doing that was so 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeAFCpD3xnb
disgusting that I ended up purking all over Sam's shoes, who was my 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVorNRxV4T9
science partner. This time, it was just cotton stuffing that came out of1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWzLsE88iX9
the teddy bear.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9Fc6jhX9H
Wait. I frowned. This 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzMPUwEJRC
isn't right. I raised an eyebrow when Jehan kept on removing cotton 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMRotP8IYcq
stuffings and there was no sign of the diamonds. Where were the 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzo3LBUmzC
diamonds!1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dNoKyhWD5
I stared horrified at 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSVRkgLgll
the scene on the table. There was tiny cotton stuffings everywhere and 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsitxFIARKQ
the bear that laid stuffless on the table was a sad site to see because 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfJlkX77RQ
there was nothing in it. No diamonds.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqIGAKKeTwK
I looked up at Jehan and1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxcBb61vm8B
he was as surprised as I was. His mouth was wide open and he couldn't 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWsMUoeQ0BF
stop looking at the dissected teddy. If he kept on looking at it like 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsiFtwFLQRi
that, he was going to end up traumatised.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3ZHnYaQ36
"Je-Jehan," I said 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH2NFp9AzqP
softly. Hoping he wouldn't bite at me like a dog with rabies. "Jehan. 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ILT7ZMr6B
I...I have no idea what has just happened, but, there are no diamonds in1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH3KcOiG57N
there."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdTte0LnwS
Jean neither moved nor 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMbGE3TGcr
said a word. I was getting worried. Should I move him to try and snap 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJFDnHjI5W
him out of it? I didn't know what to do.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQrK5VXkl9q
But how could this be? 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdYCOFC18R
Where did the diamonds go? It's not like the teddy bear could just poop 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLK5asnjKuv
out diamonds since it wasn't alive or anything. Something weird was 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygPOlDwhT0
going on. And I wasn't like liking it at all.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiNXFM4m9Uz
"Where are my diamonds?" Jehan muttered silently, still looking at the scene before him.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryzSXElIEN
"I...I don't know," I said shaking my head. I was scared of his reaction and I prepared myself for it.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvyyy2rm1YM
He banged his fists on 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgEN34Iyg4
the table so loudly that he startled not only me, but everyone else in 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHNduRfQJe
the café. Everyone turned to look at us and I looked around then back at1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81dyJOsg4l
Jehan, whose eyes were as red as a bull's, staring at me.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQ5r2RI1wM
"Jehan, chill," I said, putting my hands up to calm him down. "Let's not try to get angry here."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHz6Pg8Rjms
"Where are my diamonds, Zoey?" This time he didn't shout but the anger in his voice got me shivering.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGhPJbv6Mi
"I don't know. I don't 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE7nL8GoRH3
know what's going on right now. This is the same teddy bear you sent us.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWS5gDi2soo
I don't know why it doesn't have diamonds in it."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDoFrgrliNF
"How did the diamonds go missing?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfezIKqGara
"How am I supposed to 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhcUMt87EMh
know? I just kept the teddy for you. Maybe you sent me the teddy without1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlfFvc7v4vs
diamonds in it and you probably never noticed."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHOUVu5gE3v
"Don't doubt what I do, Zoey! I made sure I made no mistake."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2sxfZa9TX
"Okay, chill, I believe you. Look, why don't we try to sort this out calmly? Getting upset won't do us any good."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpiogevZ25S
Jehan rubbed his 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4QCKWxvpwQ
forehead and sighed as he leaned back further into his seat. He seemed 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYDNiSKzBx
to have calmed down when he looked at the teddy bear again.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTrRRTJnUk
"I need my diamonds back, Zoey."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHweO1vM4oE
"I know. You've said that like almost a hundred times now."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4peh79tYW
"Let's not joke around here. What happened? Why does this bear have no diamonds in it?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvHZ7ponBxJ
"I didn't do anything. I swear. That teddy was just the way it was eversince you sent it."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjoT8l4IImM
"Then why doesn't it have diamonds in it?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04T3o0qGgd
"I don't know."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVli39xA61o
Jehan looked at me with an eyebrow raised. "Who else had this teddy apart from you?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsw5fjuvWFO
"Ummm," I looked down 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnnRSctJGsV
and played around with my fingers. "Uh....I wasn't the one who had been 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFP9goxKqaQ
taking care of the teddy bear this whole time."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEFdJjHZWN
"What?" Jehan sounded surprised. "What do you mean?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8aGe90ESf
"I didn't have the teddy bear with me at the hotel the whole time," I said, looking at him fully in the eyes now.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41Y5uPsRQb
"Who had the teddy bear?" Jehan leaned closer, his eyes not leaving mine.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ20S3VfHJ3
"Lee had it before I took it from her yesterday."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88WpjIFnjY
"Oh, my gosh!" Jehan 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfk6ymF5PAd
covered his face with his hands and I could see this wasn't going too 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8orzJuRPrh
well for him. "Could she have the diamonds?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmNQWe0ynD
"I don't think so. Lee 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkjGOp2eV46
is an honest person. If she did notice there were diamonds in the teddy,1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH3kZg9r6PC
she would've said something. No way. She can't have the diamonds."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcmAJ9pQ6U0
"Then how do we explain all this! She was the last person to have the teddy, correct?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHSILrcwp4k
"You're right. But if she did find out about us and all this diamond business, she wouldn't keep that to herself. I know Lee."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMNKydCVOOX
"Maybe you don't know Lee well enough. If this is the same teddy I had sent, where could the diamonds be?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhtXxmeLn6
"Maybe this is just another teddy bear and the actual one with the diamonds is still at the hotel."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTRdPi0kx8j
After I said that, Jehan1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4N9EjJI3G
quickly took the dissected teddy bear in his hands and looked at it 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR8zaFrDjSE
carefully. He turned the teddy, looking at its back side and tearing the1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2xD9EsI4le
suit away. I wondered what he was looking for because he had a serious 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7LJRZffF3g
look on his face.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOln01FI1y
"You're right," said Jehan. "This is definitely another teddy bear and not the one I sent you."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR5aFOoC4Jr
"Wait, how do you know?" I asked.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1x8njVzeC
"I remember one of my 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9zGnf4IFD
men who sewed the teddy bear after putting diamonds in it at the back. 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdnsLgTFHli
There should have been some stitching here but this one doesn't."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKf3ifwdEBP
"Ha!" I snapped my fingers. "I knew I was right!"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2eiloUw6Ez
"Don't snap your fingers and be all happy about this," said Jehan, back to giving me that angry look. "I need that teddy, now!"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDnUywczpp
"Huh? I can't start 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNb0ThSUOh
searching for it now. It would look suspicious. And I can't start asking1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlvLg4f2ST
Lee if she bought another teddy just like this one. She already knows 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0Go1sTu3V
that the bear is missing."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4fcVqZRiN
"Then maybe, Lee isn't the only person you should be asking."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNSjfKyZVU
"What do you mean?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSphLB9KLT1
"Someone else must know where the other teddy bear is. Your group members perhaps."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ44IKWLIhQ
"No. I highly doubt it. Lee must have bought another teddy and we just didn't know about it."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrWS2b7Dl4D
"Now that, makes no 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPboRz8v7em
sense. If I were you, I would go back and find out what happened to that1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxsyrAncQb
teddy and ask around for it. I'll need that teddy tomorrow."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYNciX6HLf3
"Tomorrow! Are you nuts!"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡocABsLakbj
"Maybe I am because I'm desperate to have those diamonds back."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ5Ln2J5yOW
"I might not be around tomorrow. I have a music video to shoot."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk10PCNu92e
"Find those diamonds and you will be scott free, Zoey. Or do you want everyone to mourn over you when they find you dead?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbqkUO5Xeez
I completely forgot that1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWkCdQ0SweP
I was being threatened by this guy. Though his threats didn't scare me 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkiYubZJWOF
anymore, I just had to abide to everything. Who knows, he might not have1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8IZiYKgX3
me killed, but he could hurt the others and it would be all my fault.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2XFestK7o8
"Okay. I'll see what I can do."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeyLGxR4LaG
Jehan gave me a smile. 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtuoMH52VtK
"That's more I like it. I would start working on this soon if I were 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡilJs8jQRue
you. Try your best to find the bear by tomorrow, will you?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnvlwXyMrC
I nodded my head and 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzvbVeMamT
that made him smile even more. He soon stood up from his seat and looked1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgwXdNU02Il
down at me. I looked back at him without a saying a word.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3seR3fjUmY
"See you tomorrow," said Jehan and he quickly walked out of the café.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf51qkhaPNH
I sat there as I buried 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMAUbqv1cf1
my face in my hands, thinking of what to do. Again, everything was 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHevEdbBuDK
ruined. First, the interruption from TOP and Seungri yesterday. Now, the1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8d1BHToV7p
teddy bear had been swapped with another. My life couldn't get any 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdqsm0xN4m
worse than this. What was going on? Who was putting me into so much 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNjyLuIAKOe
drama that might just ruin my life?1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8R0vNO8ekb
I hadn't noticed the bell of the café ringing because I felt a hand on my shoulder and when I looked up, there stood Christine.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWB4ulTzet
"Zoey, what happened?" Christine asked, as she turned to look on what was on the table.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHTaH7XSEg
I could hear footsteps 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6sDiwM7mx
behind me. The others had come in the café too. They all looked worried 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWqqKcFaoS
when they saw the look on my face.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3yXOgiMnW
Christine sat where Jehan had been a few minutes ago and looked at the tattered teddy bear on the table.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡERlK35BoQZ
"What's going on?" Daniel asked. "And what happened to Mr Teddy?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjCOBAAlbC
"Jehan didn't look happy when he left the café," said TOP. "Didn't he get his diamonds?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCSjnjmsui
"No," I answered. "He didn't."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOD4YRGv9Ul
"What?" Seungri sounded surprised. "What do you mean he didn't get his diamonds?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1nEAI0csr
"This teddy isn't the teddy he had sent us," I answered. "Someone swapped the teddy with another."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHnfZL0g75w
Mike shook his head. "But who? We didn't know what that teddy bear had until now, so, it couldn't be anyone of us."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtHm27IIfYA
"And what about Lee?" 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZzDUAXurD3
Christine asked. "She was the one who last had the teddy before Zoey 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyFolHsat2l
took it. But what doesn't make any sense is why she would want to get 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2HdJI4sAkt
another teddy when she had asked me last night where Mr Teddy had gone 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJjyv02Jfi
to."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhCkpZaqs9
"This is bad," I said, 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4IL5TOq290
leaning my elbows on the table and holding my head. "Whoever has the 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaKSEK6RjYE
teddy, knew what must have been going on this whole time."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRaJ9SyXnHy
"Ya, but who could have known?" Seungri asked. "It couldn't be Lee because all she knows is that the teddy has gone missing."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDCIemYgZ3B
"Maybe Sam has it," said Mike.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOgklHRqvX
We all turned to look at Mike with grim looks on our faces.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0tXqkpXHN
"Sam?" I wondered for a 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2DdKLbIR2
little while. "Why would Sam have the teddy? And if she did, how could 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW9Kg1I1TIt
she have swapped it with the other one?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vha8IGdil
"Okay, wait," said TOP. 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG6sO9Jmptx
"This is all too confusing. Does Sam even have any idea or clue as to 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxoE5hSLqC
what's really going on in the first place?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1iPS9eN4QM
"I doubt it," I said 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCo7pDzOR1W
shaking my head. "If she knew what was going on she would have 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFWwnhVBXw
confronted me. And besides, she was also at the mall yesterday and would1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBDfCsen8H
have probably seen Jehan and I together. But she didn't."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE59j1znglC
TOP and Seungri looked 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9gVMlkHncB
at each other after I said that. What was up with them? The look they 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2sfX9aW9CY
gave each other made me feel that something was up but I quickly brushed1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEl6ZWubPrC
it away.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8tLH92mEuZ
"I highly doubt it too,"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUqACIUXUtD
said Daniel. "If she knew Zoey was into some kind of serious trouble, 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCiHBLAxYsr
she would have asked us about it."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4KpKM3hJA
"That's true," said 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5aP6GEm1L
Mike. "Come to think of it, I don't think Sam has it. For her to swap 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjM60dZoyal
the teddy, she would have bought it from somewhere."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ6UZvIMhw8
"And I checked out the 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡunz1EROVjv
shopping bags, Lee came with yesterday when she went shopping with Sam. 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6zR6FAciqy
There was no sign of a small teddy in any of them," said Christine.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8QcT7QDGW9
"She must have bought it when she was with G-Dragon," I said.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCPsrhWeok
"No, I highly doubt it,"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78ODUAMmTK
said TOP. "There are some dedicated fans who followed those two 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6KX0uxIbwG
yesterday, describing which store they went to and taking pictures. They1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0lxEELXpS3
said nothing about them entering a toy store."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zZXpFwUhu
"Now that's what I call a dead end," said Daniel.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwyBuPu9G7s
"Fine, so Lee and Sam have been cancelled on the list," said Seungri. "Who else could have swapped the teddies?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0jav4K9VyY
"Collins?" Mike asked.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObAWwPhaIs
"Ha! No way," I said, almost laughing in a such a serious situation. "How could he have known about Jehan and the diamonds?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMg65eY5Frn
"Mmmm, good point," said Seungri. "He's been really busy these past few days."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFA2IxryGzg
"But who knows? Maybe he1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNOsE2kisJ
has been spying on me this whole time and I haven't noticed. He 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡflXit7FhS8
considers me the black sheep that has to be kept an eye on at all 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtl96rW3IRg
times."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2DcKnG7pf
"You're definitely the black sheep, Zoey," said Mike.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIYOUeDsx1l
"Hey! May I remind you, I'm not the only one here who gets into trouble here."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9HMTnyHSSR
"Okay, guys, focus," said TOP. "What makes you think Collins might have been the one who swapped the teddies?"1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡReigsBlqP7
Daniel suddenly snapped his fingers. "I remember now. Yesterday when he came back with Sam, something happened."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kp8c8Lkx5
"Wait. Collins was with Sam?" I asked.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv19aty9TwC
"He was the one who went1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xjBtU0H8g
to pick her up from the mall," Daniel answered. "Back to what I was 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnFEExI6MpW
saying, Collins had something delivered to him at the hotel. He even 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGujavilyn
went to get it himself from the delivery man who was coming up the 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2rXvmX731
elevator."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ii2zfoQos
"What was it?" We all asked Daniel, looking at him anxiously.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhDnyQ5ZHQi
"It was a small box. And if you ask me, it was kind of like the one Jehan had sent that teddy bear in."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqn0IfYa91
"Gosh, it's been Collins this whole time," said Christine.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyb05Jcb2t4
"I couldn't be too sure," I said. "But after what Daniel has said, I don't know what to believe."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrszXSqw6Q
"We really have to go," said Seungri. "We can't stay here."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRnTdOV4rO5
"You're right," I said 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1rrelPSKD
as I stood up from the seat taking my purse. "I've to search for that 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYvtrymhVi2
teddy if I want to make it out alive tomorrow."1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQPgy3j3HLm
"Wait, we can't leave all this here," said Christine, taking what was left of the teddy bear in her hands.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0psngdP6Pd
We all walked out of the1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXejB6LlLjO
café, hopping no one had heard our conversation. There were a few 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWwpWDY9X2K
people in the café and I highly doubt if they really heard anything.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡssgYoxYnvG
While I was in the car 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡePGNQ826pr
with Seungri driving and the others in the other car behind us, I was so1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiLtm2ul40F
troubled about the missing teddy. I couldn't help thinking that Collins1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxHVfhHeG5s
is involved. But that didn't make any sense. As much as I wanted to 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHlcJQ8xLW
believe that Collins could have swapped the teddies, I shook my head at 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4X5RU82V8i
the thought of it. Maybe it really wasn't Collins.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTun4oRretQ
If it isn't him, then 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHyf802cbSM
who? It couldn't be Lee because she had the teddy with her the whole 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmzHyC9Jrat
time and she couldn't buy another teddy for no reason. And I couldn't 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEhQiLeldQX
picture Sam doing anything like that either because I had never seen her1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLdcCY0etvk
near that teddy after Jehan sent it to us that day.1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM8YuEajQ7G
What if I had the wrong 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvsBCQpSLE0
teddy the whole time and I had never known till now? All this was too 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGrYKo2Xh5e
confusing. Who swapped the teddies? And when did the swapping ever take 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRm7wgrkki0
place without any of us noticing in the first place?1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwlsfiaBbdP
I hope I could be able 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDgZMOmmJB6
to find the teddy soon. Jehan might threaten to kill me, but I was 1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1O8Oc7XsRO
pretty sure he would try to hurt the others too. And I wouldn't let that1082Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1N8w59xiw
happen.
