"Okay, so here are the lyrics for the song," I said after writing them down.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQm3z60XWRJ
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHxNypSINfK
Everyone's attention automatically turned to me. They all fell silent. I read out the lyrics first then sang them out.
"So, what do you think?" I asked, addressing the question towards BAP.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDTQFRfALt
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jGq1eEz6p
"Just admit it," said Zoey, "the song is awesome."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdWJgZhCnl
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3mMZ76oz3
"Zoey." Christine gave her a look that told her to keep quiet. "Let the others take it in first."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVN1diGqq5
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5I476yqqVx
"Zoey's right," said Daehyun. "The lyrics are great."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbuj0DFsTtd
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡylqbwi5rNE
"I now get what Daniel said," said Zelo, "the song is meant to be sad, but it's fun to sing. You can hear it with the way Sam sang it out."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcz53bXS8jT
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkVqVUsJVl
"You should listen to the tune," said Mike. "You'll love it."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEVIRuzJv3
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6GTgWOAlO
"I bet that's why you went searching for the guitar," said Jongup as he looked at me.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZV46AZXGZ
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJEut7lYNfx
"Play the guitar, Sam," Himchan insisted. "We're all dying to hear it. I bet Yong-guk can't wait any longer."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFnPFLIrTgq
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHsBeUA9ZFi
"Huh?" Yong-guk looked at Himchan beside him, looking confused. "No, I'm not."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOp5vIHGk1
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAg7xdN7sCW
"Of course you are," said Yong-nam as he gave his brother a raised eyebrow. "Don't forget, I'm your twin."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJSa7aUEB7X
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIrO0P58MO0
"Okay," I said as I took the guitar that had been laying on the table the whole time. "Let me play it, then."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1CNp9VtgmY
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5DyTpXTpXZ
I positioned the guitar properly before me with my crossed legs supporting it. Before I started to strum the strings, I took in a deep breath. I played out the tune first. Afterwards, I started to sing out the chorus. It wasn't long so it ended sooner than expected.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZK7gjl0b2C
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9cEFF41gw
"Wow," said Young-jae, looking at me like he's just seen something's dazzled him. "The song's going to sound awesome."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLfHRciKLYA
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59q4zvZKZ0
"Thanks," I said. "Oh, before I forget," I reached out for the pencil on the table and started to write something down. "We also worked on the first verse, but we couldn't finish it up yesterday. We were having a little trouble with the words so we want to see what you guys think."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBLwZewaMP4
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbDTiSbE81g
"Alright," said Yong-guk, looking to see what I was writing on the paper. "Whatever it is, I bet we can handle it."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy2xqXf06Wh
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVSs8pxrrS
"Can't wait to see you try," said Christine. "But then again, if it's you two l'm not worried."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOzQwklCOR
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYXphaWjTdC
"There you go again, Christine," I said after writing down the lyrics. "Okay, here we are." I laid down the pencil aside on the table.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh8rQWroAUq
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8Se66XrIE
I felt Jongup lean closer so as to see what I had written. I leaned to the side a little, but his blond hair almost covered my face. I couldn't help but take a sniff. His hair smelt really nice. Well, this seems unusual. I tried to lean away further so as not to smell him.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vZRdoeEO5
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx81gAMWtPd
"Come on, Jongup," Zelo complained. "You're distracting Sam. We all want to hear what she has written."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVeBLtyY2Z
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYtTQAXh6is
"I don't think that I'm distracting her," said Jongup as he looked at Zelo. "Right, Sam?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgCwK5N7IVM
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZpsqrYamQJ
It's when he turned his head to look at me that I yelped and leaned back further than before, almost falling to the floor. Instead, I ended up leaning on Yong-nam.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEqQlcmulQ
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXxPPfstmFW
Jongup looked at me with a puzzled look on his face. It's either he didn't know what he was about to do or he knew and was just playing dumb.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRIl1flK1i
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4skWCpzVgJ
"What's wrong, Sam?" he asked.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlj9srLqnOP
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRbep9CScB
I suddenly blushed. He really didn't know that he had almost planted a kiss on me. Anyway, it's best not to tell him. I hope the others hadn't noticed.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoT4MqB6FSs
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZnvs5QFSH
"Goodness, Jongup," said Mike, "you almost kissed my sister."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60YA1Oo7fx
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4WEpBwKLLb
And it just had to be Mike. Goodness, me!681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNxISUC6Sjh
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnuvdCieqC7
"Huh?" Jongup looked surprised. "I did?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjRGjkJ6CK
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbuJ8YKOsJR
"And you were this close," said Zoey indicating a tiny space with her index finger and thumb.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoXQtJ7Ljm1
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ipi9i16L0
"Oh...," Jongup turned to look at me. I was still leaning onto Yong-nam's shoulder. "I'm so sorry, Sam. Maybe I shouldn't have leaned in too close."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRuEFmNFNXk
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2ccRHp4iJ
"You see, I told you so," said Zelo.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQopN1dixG
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9bkeE3Uuv
"No, I'm okay," I said as I sat upright. "Sorry for leaning on you like that, Yong-nam. I hope I'm not too heavy."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslXhEnKgaX
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGiu3dO4lL
Yong-nam cleared his throat. "Not at all," he answered. "You're actually pretty light."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNuTr8jwnbF
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqYhfio8lg
I nervously laughed, not sure whether he meant it or not.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3VHnOEd7O9
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM7oJcUNgRv
"Wow," said Zoey as she delightfully clapped her hands together. "First Sam avoids Jongup from kissing her and then she leans onto Yong-nam who prevents her from falling. So sweet."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGGI8nIgw1
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGbDfawNIs
"You're such a fantasist, Zoey," said Daniel as he shook his head.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxo0f3chA9A
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnWztkqdIcj
"Don't mind her," I said. "Can we forget the kissing incident and focus on the song, please?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡre4VTeE71x
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4qYBnHVsap
"Sure," said Mike. "That's if we can reset Zoey's brain or else she won't stop talking about it."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5MZkHIDLr
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSS8VxuwxBk
"Are you saying that I'm kookoo?" Zoey asked, looking at Mike.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0chDhA08v
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9aKdv0iIR1
"You can argue later, you two," I said, giving them a look. "Let's try and focus."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDRgezDr85
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmjsIUixCEh
I went back to looking at the paper in front of me and read out the lyrics for them. Just like we did with BAP's song, we started coming up with lyrics. But this time, it proved to be a lot difficult than we expected. Whatever we came up with didn't really fit with the song.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDYLdmdUmN
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡabVdXFD4Fz
"Is it just me or something's just off?" Young-jae asked.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS13hmVBoUD
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWiGZc1sQqt
"I think I feel what you mean," said Zoey as she scratched her head.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPA6eqz5RH
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKAb65oXX9e
"Huh? What's Zoey saying?" Himchan asked.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡilqV6dRvmV
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7mj9BSvjWo
"I told you we should've rewired her brain a little," said Mike as he turned to look at me. I shook my head. Zoey on the other hand, ignored him. That's so unlike her.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVN4lYXyFJm
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPBGOndsIO
"I feel we aren't working like we did the first time," said Christine.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpAt3uPdazF
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgU95ga5RfC
"Ya, that's what I meant," said Zoey.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYJSsbgDvQ
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv06frRfiHV
"We just aren't coming up with the right lyrics," said Yong-guk, "that's all."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqcjeDR8xft
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8oaE5jZRtw
"Why is that?" Himchan asked.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbBqBI2TSMj
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSicvuRoGZ1
"Who knows," said Daniel. "What do you think, Sam?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5m3jQPVwlC
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpU9omKGVKl
I shrugged my shoulders as I also couldn't figure out why we found it so difficult. I scratched the back of my head and pouted my lip a little.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJgojKbwUwz
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVlBWjk0Iw4
"You look like you're about to cry, Sam," said Jongup.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrwUXi363R0
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7mcKKBF65R
"Don't mind me," I said. "I'm frustrated that we're going nowhere."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8As5b3aM2B
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0lC91ZpdRe
"Maybe we're all just tired," said Zelo.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZnGQqXOhG
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6r7B4ypOV
"I felt we rested enough," said Daehyun.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaECw3CvWcI
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpyfJlfC0oZ
"Or maybe we've been in the same place for too long," I suggested. "Sometimes the environment contributes greatly."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1VGVACpUxp
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBeUKTQPAjL
"Maybe," said Yong-guk.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL1ZmFcN7FP
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIZsJEr6Rwu
"What do you think, Yong-nam?" Christine asked as she turned to look at him.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtHz1xbEU1V
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGaBIn56uuF
He raised his arms up to stretch. As soon as he put them down, he said, "I think we're all just tired. We exhausted ourselves working on BAP's piece and thought we would do the same with this one. If you ask me, we should just call it a day and continue tomorrow."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Ui2PZzqfl
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPkJ2lfNug
"Tomorrow?" Daniel looked shocked at the idea. "Won't that be a little too late for us?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡehuLIjubtS
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVTdh1Jbbko
"You're right," I said as I slapped my forehead. "We've to meet the songwriters and composers for the album. We won't have enough time."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1bzyqL2msz
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGmccCbF4Kh
"Not forgetting that we should at least have something to present to Yang Hyun-suk," said Zoey.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB17EBG8HEz
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqccFBWZTG
"I told Collins to buy me more time, but I doubt Yang Hyun-suk will even want to hear it. Goodness, just thinking about it feels overwhelming." I buried my face into my hands.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9CxSCYZFL
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe6uyZnSm37
"Now I wish we never had to make an album," said Zoey as she leaned back on the chair and sighed.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0z4Xxx76ra
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaOS9T4xCsp
"Wow, you guys are working on an album?" Jongup asked.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwv9qfCL5Vh
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtMdPY5WlV
"Yep," I answered as I lifted my face up from my hands. "Our managers are ambitious."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyW2TS6o0EE
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHUEvo3y84
"At least we don't have to worry about the other songs," said Zoey.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04X7OuZ1S2
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkoOrlxVG2v
"But you heard what Collins said this morning, Zoey. This one has to be awesome. But the way we're so exhausted, I feel we aren't going anywhere."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuq4iBihoir
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtjrky2NG5I
"I think we should take a little break," said Yong-nam.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVBhhq2omL
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxVvlYGJ61w
I went back first onto the floor with my eyes closed. I really did feel exhausted. Why did fatigue have to settle in like this?681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3e7YUZt1YG
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡof23uUmMi3
"You're scaring me, Sam," I heard Yong-guk say.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPZI4Hk7rH
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGVV5aStDs
"Oh, don't mind her," said Zoey. "She started this and finding a way to finish it is frustrating."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzaGpMjfhrf
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8K3Mw0yoAI
I smiled a little at what Zoey said. Starting something and not finishing it really is frustrating, especially if it involves something that you really love to do. And with time ticking by, Yang Hyun-suk and Collins will have no choice but to be disappointed tomorrow.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuuiyAXefGY
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNI8kvk5C9F
"Wait..., does this mean we won't have the reward Lee was talking about?" I heard Daniel ask.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSsYgzAeqqv
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3iTdRW0Opu
I opened my eyes as I remembered Daesung's invitation. I really wish I could tell them the truth, but I held my tongue. Even if we leave this place without much progress, Lee won't hold us back because it isn't much of a reward, but an invitation to go out for an outdoor movie. I sat up.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeDf7VIFvdX
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4JleAjQ7P
"Don't worry about that, Daniel," I said. "Lee will give us that reward."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs4MZcRzbfV
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPYo72cspp
"For someone who seems tired, you sound pretty confident," said Himchan.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwtCjIie1TS
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWavEtE05En
"I just know." I smiled at him as I shrugged my shoulders.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSuvK5AEaAp
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwNKSCjcFGs
"Do you've any idea what it could be?" Daniel asked.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9OUTGUizP0
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhDDjteYDU
I shook my head. It's best it turns out as a surprise.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqNalURONk1
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBjesoZhMS
"So, what are we going to do now?" Zelo asked. "Just sit and do nothing?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRATUIxzgv
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1K8a1S5jcc
"We can do something fun to pass the time," Christine suggested.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmm1bR4fRTU
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGQioXG6i3L
"Not me," I went back to lying down on the floor.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJAgz73dej
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8D7m3ZivlB
No one said a word. I could feel a few eyes on me, while others, I'm guessing, gave each other looks.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhdr3J5AxDk
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6OY4Y5OXys
"Come on, Sam," said Zoey. "You're such a party pooper."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡECRcfvO7W4
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJqTtrDo6O
"Haven't heard you call me that in a while," I said as I smiled at the ceiling.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLCeBCj6QcK
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEye8WtnmAM
"Get up, will you? This is no time to be lying down."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj93Yyaki74
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡplz8ZRIAOM
"There's nothing wrong with lying down to rest, is there?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9FN2i3p5xJ
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW3fZyit6CM
"Goodness, me." Zoey sounded frustrated. She couldn't argue over that and she knew it.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo9IJOpEvAx
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnaSZKgieOm
"Maybe we should call Lee to pick us up," Mike suggested.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmUoSC2VJX
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH7nyFYYiVT
"Don't bother," I said as I closed my eyes. "With us not under her radar anymore she's probably doing something for herself right now."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDhRupGV30
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzR10HK00JB
I heard Zelo and Daehyun chuckle while I heard Christine and Zoey mutter out in frustration.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKyyqrW7FJ
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnG527Szha
"Looks like you're stuck here with us until Lee comes to pick you up," I heard Yong-guk say.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZPt8zdJzyo
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDWxLkQT0N
"But we can't sit here doing nothing," said Daniel. "Like Christine said, we better find something to do."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtr1wNTnzMW
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0HIvFrg2kv
"You should be resting," I suggested, my eyes still closed.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWyuS627TH
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFj2CUzRK1y
"Well, we don't want to," said Zoey. I imagined her folding her arms and looking at me like she would at Mike when he got her angry.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡftLtgZpDvh
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBmaXE2s7z
I smiled. "Suit yourself."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGH1vRd3QBb
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGGfVdsCj4
"No one wants to do karaoke in the recording booth?" Jongup suggested.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡguhlXlHhne
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrxvZbGLWC
"I think we've done enough singing for one day," said Daehyun.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXCyBrNOE4O
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2gjywueDX6
"I agree," said Zoey.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPzRoMRqld
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvNEXo3ALq
"If there's clearly nothing to do, then I think we should be resting like Sam's doing right now," said Yong-guk.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm4qJ3H1zFj
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQevvb0ShSv
"I like your thinking," I said with my eyes closed. I raised my hand to give him a thumbs up.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgK9OkDOm42
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZW9imK85Oj
"You songwriters all think the same," I heard Christine mutter.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVESsxETAyW
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCKr8OFR250
"I might not agree with all this," Mike started to say, "but I'm going through with Sam's idea. I'm just going to lean back on the couch a little."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk9tG7GzMmg
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTtTxBA7Ig
"Huh? Not you too, Mike," said Zoey, sounding surprised.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZA8fj3iNI
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9nnKZ2G07
"Quit it, Zoey." I heard him move on the couch, obviously putting himself in a more comfortable position. "There's nothing to do. Why not relax for a bit?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZHfFiD3Hm
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlrwnxae9sC
"I shouldn't be surprised coming from you."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6r7U70yTRx
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYH6PnGcONg
"Ya, ya, ya, Zoey. I'm the bad guy here. Doesn't matter now, does it?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeekQFNkKce
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUL5DrXPsHC
"Well, if there's nothing for you guys to do at the moment, then I'm going to work on something," said Yong-guk.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJAAYwAR1BV
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyk2ZnpAGCl
"And what could that be?" Young-jae asked.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2RfiZuzIym
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpZLmdXzQc7
"Our song, of course."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡArzncTsdOU
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2FTjWHDCVX
"You go ahead and do that," I said.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaznpKjgWM0
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhRithPkRLU
There came an awkward pause and I opened one eye to look at him.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZcrzqKWtxq
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcHRBwRaupL
"You look surprised, Yong-guk," said Yong-nam. He took the words right out of my mouth.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTvrdnorCy
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuB3t99s4HP
"I thought that would get Sam up from the floor since she seems to really like helping out," said Yong-guk.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXzfQ8w9oM
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3eOmrZOjRX
"I'm drained," I said as I closed my one eye and placed my open palm under my head. "As exciting as it sounds, I'll pass."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4usM6WFeYM
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46b2Ke48fT
"Okay, then," said Yong-guk. "And you, Mike?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡus9vluQL2t
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0B8hYgZw51
"I'll pass too," said Mike.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsICS3aMApk
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuaUh7e2wuw
"Okay. I'll be by the console. Any of you guys want to join me?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVF14ymZot
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJEAiI7j27a
"Well...," Zelo sounded hesitant and I heard a scratching sound across the table. I imagined he was scratching his head, wondering whether to go or not. "Me too," he finally said. "I don't feel like working on the song right now."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6o3uBATrFq
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡheLsMrmZws
"I'm going to relax over here too," said Young-jae.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCi4Ncsjx2I
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡae0ZRkJVtr
"What's up with everyone?" Yong-guk asked, sounding surprised.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5IvcuJH9NY
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6VTYRqFIE
"Like Yong-nam said, we're tired," I said as I sat up. "The best thing to do right now is relax."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZy7x0jfiOT
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVuZ0skSFQ2
"Aren't you worried about not making progress on your song?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrssMfnh1DS

"I was about to ask the same question," said Zoey with a sulky look on her face. 681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0coNXStrl
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdM33YcNIH1
I shrugged. "At first I was, but right now, I need to relax a little before my brain explodes. Don't let me stop you from working on your song."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7fA87YmoK
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc1K9Sz0nqZ
"Alright, then," said Yong-nam as he also slept on the floor. "Looks like I can also rest. Keeping your eyes on time can be tiring too."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpmmgpblwX
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV4TsyV7WJm
"You of all people shouldn't even be sleeping," said Yong-guk.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnf2ojeBGnS
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPTHYDBw17n
I laughed. As much as I wanted to hear these two brothers argue, it ended there. I went back to sleeping on the floor.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLsOyNTIBZ
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoirT0lAVlg
"I'm going to join the relaxing spree too," said Jongup, as he pulled out his phone from his pocket and slept on the floor beside me.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3o6jbd13R1
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibgcj0fjWD
"Looks like the majority wins," said Himchan as he chuckled.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLWVoUAVo5
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1czFCYeQAG
Zoey mourned in frustration. Even I could tell she's tired. She had no choice but to give in.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDWnVuqtomh
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjegIAM5ubY
"Oh, man!" Daniel muttered out loud.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa78XjcysMF
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdNRvSmg67
I lifted my head from the floor to see what Daniel's doing. He had his phone out too and tapping at it. He's probably playing a game.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzYLfXvmN4
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6dsca8i23H
"Sorry, guys," he said. He quickly looked up from his phone when he noticed people's eyes on him. "Playing a game over here."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUE02WLLk7C
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUXVCTVQ5q
I shook my head at him as I put my head back on the floor. I looked beside me and saw Jongup on Instagram looking at cute cat videos. I turned the other side to see Yong-nam with his arm over his face, covering his eyes. He did seem just as tired as all of us. He did help come up with some lyrics, so no argument there.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMjSbsIRkT
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWkdcZ8bO72
I heard Zoey sigh and that brought a smile across my face. "I give up," she said. "I haven't been on Twitter lately. Time to see what's going on in the world."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5HkOujBkdv
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqzUATGUVp
"I think I'll have a little shut-eye," said Christine.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRGBwo9CXPC
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYISZ2QB9vW
Everyone seemed to be busy doing their own things now. I counted Jongup, Daniel, Young-jae and Zoey on their phones. Daehyun, Himchan and Zelo were engaged in a conversation. Even when Mike was resting on the couch, he seemed to be contributing whenever he can. Christine, Yong-nam and I were really the ones resting as we closed our eyes.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtTfumeu8jM
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGZZzY8UKp
I heard someone stand up and guessed it was Yong-guk. I could hear footsteps head towards the other side of the room where the recording booth and console were. He seemed serious with what he wanted to do. I continued to lay there on the floor, hoping that I don't fall asleep.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3BuWQfHaG
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTkFSi62lY0
I found myself slowly imagining about the outdoor movie we were going to watch. Will it be an oldies movie? I would love to watch such. It just sets you in the mood when it has to.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuFbyq5gIlA
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmwjs4nFfr0
I heard Jongup chuckle to himself and I knew he's still on his cat videos. A thought crossed my mind. Here I am thinking of the outdoor movie when I should be thinking about the song. I don't feel like dwelling on it. Now is the time to relax, nothing more.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7e6Wkfafp2
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE9P2Z7k9Gb
"Hey, Sam?" I heard Jongup call me. "Are you asleep?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCLl8nWFih
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7fQsRUSqi7
"No," I answered. I drew my eyes open and looked at him. "What is it?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsepqCOn5Dl
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMHVIxH1YR
"Watch this," he said as he scooted closer that our heads nearly touched. He held his phone up for the two of us to see. We watched a cute cat video where a little white and brown kitten was chasing a movable toy mouse on the floor. It was cute and yet funny at the same time as the kitten tried so many times to capture it. Jongup and I laughed.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqy3ckzNdA
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlz5Qoh1V7q
"Oh, my," I said as I wiped away the tears in my eyes. "The little kitten really struggled. But you've to admit, it's so cute."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWguyoPKtkw
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnXi3E3DM7
"I know," said Jongup. "You should see this previous one. It will knock your socks off."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqp7aEsSFdX
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzHbU0fpmd
I joined Jongup in watching more cat videos. We soon moved on to watch people participate in various dance challenges.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjugcno8oj
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGYPu0gYkx
"We should've a dance challenge one day," I said to Jongup as we watched.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8de8Atualz
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSWogB4YaS3
"Huh?" he turned to look at me. "We should've a dance challenge?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5peOo9upm4
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9VyKcdtaD
"Ya. I mean The Toxins vs BAP."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSoiOlEnwqh
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPXACcJLMpD
"Oh..., like the one you had with Monsta X?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfiGT4DMzgN
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡglhFKwO2At
"Yes, like that one. You watched it?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpk8ZokZqR
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHIho9SkCDH
"I think a lot of us did. People really liked it."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrcI636w9AQ
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfat9p4XDp
"Too bad we lost. But it was fun. We should've one one of these days. That's if we could even make the time for it."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXVlm2zIKQK
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5qddiRsmTG
"Oh, you've an album to work on."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ312G2MOBPH
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3bgsAx3KW
I stared at the ceiling and sighed. "Just thinking about it drains me." I went back to looking at his phone.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrOXklA58SJ
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ89J3a3XGOZ
"Did I hear someone talk about having a dance challenge with BAP?" Zoey asked.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3FCKgL96S
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jr5DJVg9r
I raised my head a little and saw Zoey still on her phone.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZN2qkybKkn
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpsQpY9nXQ1
"Yes, I said that," I said as I dropped my head and stared at Jongup's phone.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTVeESnnDZS
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbng3dzHs8U
"Why not do so now?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR0kr7WDu61
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4mSsZmVOa0
"No!" Christine, Mike and I said out loud at the same time.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHaAXY4iCcJ
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4fs6G1q8P
"Eish, guys. It's why I asked. You don't have to eat me alive."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfYOULjntg
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡarxQuumPk5
Himchan and the other BAP members around the table started to chuckle.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5j8z3YkuiR
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxh5XZmRGWT
"You Toxins really are something," said Himchan. "You do know that the majority of you opposed, right?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFcbJbeofWN
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGejreqGsk
"Except Daniel," said Zelo.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVq8eD0BnF
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPdjJ3N0gR
"Oh, I refuse too," said Daniel, still on his phone.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdQlNRPaUvR
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0PildhMPIT
Zoey tsked. "You guys are no fun."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3o5yNbV6ta
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wa6w0i599
"Use logic, Zoey," said Christine. "We're all tired and don't have the energy for a dance challenge."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJLTJMxEn8k
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZcb5kiEbi
"I know that. I thought maybe someone's in the mood for it."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQdRoQPCPVp
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzxpJDUcXE
"No one is in the mood for it," said Mike.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6OOQuwVhLi
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzoksNNGeH
"And what if the BAP members were?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznXXYAnXGK
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMB8FDDZzS
I heard Daehyun nervously chuckle. "To be honest, Zoey," he said, "I'm definitely not in the mood."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQTNpxsAZZ
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpROPDmUv44
"Me too," said Young-jae.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOTHjfGwFpt
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3YATv8skwg
"Me three," said Zelo.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡylQbx3Gwpg
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN5VfvC5fBX
"Guess I don't have to ask you, Himchan," said Zoey, sounding unimpressed.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbTS7w42Xli
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNTTRdr8Ms
Himchan, just like Daehyun, nervously chuckled too.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFHWlAkdsgY
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYrjYWupkf
"You can ask Yong-guk," Zelo suggested.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGkXNQIYlKu
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzFItMmDNy7
"Nah. He's already busy and I don't like to be a bother."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLy8ANpYHk
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgN8xIukQRt
"Really?" Mike asked. Uh-oh. I smell an argument brewing. "You bother a lot of us everyday."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM4mgz6B9vu
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpav2boiI5
"What did you say!?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7epwSRmtkL
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKu4B8u4VgW
"Quiet down, Zoey," said Christine. "You're disturbing Yong-nam. He's probably asleep."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcstLLVdaQf
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDAVmLv6p2
I turned to look at Yong-nam beside me and saw him move his arm above his eyes. He had one eye open. He turned his eye to look at me. I almost yelped. I felt embarrassed that he had caught me looking at him. The corner of his lips raised to a smile. He closed his eye and moved his arm back to cover his eyes. That was it.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwV3XYb44g
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp78WUUxhKA
"I bet he isn't," said Zoey. "Is he, Sam?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQt76Z0eWM
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM8svooPtYl
"Huh?" I got a little caught off guard as I didn't answer Zoey's question.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLN2CqMQpQY
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFTZ9u2opCt
"Is he awake?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNbA9Z9EOq
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDIILJT2aRW
"Not sure," I answered. "He would've said something if he was."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdx71Ax6pBt
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzu4ingVJD4
I looked at him and noticed a wide smile on his face. Okay...., didn't know what to make of it, so I quickly turned my attention back to Jongup's phone.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5z1jDSMLfR
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAcp0yrDRSy
"Anyway, where was I?" Zoey asked as she paused to think a bit. I noticed that no one's willing to remind her. It's best not to.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡioZl2oVQnO
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZuYDZX1BN8
"Ah-ha!" she exclaimed. "It's what you said, Mike. How am I a bother to you?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiX8yU42LX6
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYl3NkSh51X
"You're being a bother right now. I'm trying to rest and you're disturbing me."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLrPUdvWtwe
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnimp9b1R1m
Zoey hissed that I thought a snake had magically appeared in the room. If she was one, no doubt she would attack Mike first.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡib5J69RQoH
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7oeFLKCW5r
"Enough," said Christine. "No one wants to see or hear you two fight."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqvN8fqYTz8
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKz5QXutAqB
"Mike started it," said Zoey.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYELbzQbhS
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzfrpbiUSas
"You amplified it," said Mike. "You always do."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gcrL5GlN9
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRufq9cLAuL
"For once I agree with Mike," I said. "Let it go, Zoey."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgcPC0WX9QZ
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5mKboEICh
"You guys are unbelievable," said Zoey.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmnPHbi7mlq
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKejF96gAEG
"You're unbelievable," said Himchan as he chuckled. "You really are a drama queen. No offense."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQ35e1S21R
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9U1Cg9stEq
"None taken. These guys call me that all the time."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKZmy8QPXE
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVfqvByod2B
After a while, all of us settled back to what we were doing. I was still watching videos with Jongup when I suddenly sat up from the floor. If I continued lying there, I would probably have a backache.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdNoqBUeJeg
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5DVsvwRAAx
I stretched out my arms and stood up, stretching my whole body.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ10KieNhNQD
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCf1NURFJX
"I've had enough of watching Instagram videos," I told Jongup.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHn2fuGvX34
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ00pSVe68uk
He gave me a smile and went back to looking at his phone. I turned to look at everyone and almost all of them were either quietly resting or on their phones.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPtPIyc7Ks
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXuol60MEl1
I looked over at Yong-guk who was still seated at the console. I decided to go over and see how he's progressing with the song.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm9OaoAjCOt
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUh8HxOGSFx
"Hey, there," I said to him when I got behind him. I bent over to look at him from the side of his face.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgf01ZAQpE
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnafKTbuPcN
"Oh, Sam," he looked up at me, surprised. "I didn't hear you coming."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXQysrnGil
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZkhAzc1O1
"I've cat feet," I said as I took the empty seat next to him.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEmMbKlagpI
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzFvjw6bN3k
"Cat feet?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZbY191dmDE
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkhsbL5lQBX
"I'm told there are times when people don't hear me coming so they say I've cat feet. I sometimes scare them."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5uEVncqUaQ
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyVyYc49VbM
"Oh, I see."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡghiEgTLlgp
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS996p0c816
"It's true, Yong-guk," Zoey said behind us. "So don't upset her or else she might come to your room and murder you."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHJ95efkf3
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy90eWfOuYs
"I'll keep that in mind," said Yong-guk as he turned to smile at her.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVnDkTgAmog
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGeEEqH64s
"Don't listen to her," I said as I turned to look at the console in front of me. "So, what are you really working on? I thought we were done and dusted with your song."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wW4ESn8wJ
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6mwtg4Bpfn
"I'm not working on our song," said Yong-guk as he went to work on the laptop.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE8Y4m8kBYV
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMfYj9tepgr
"Then, what are you working on?" I raised my eyebrow at him.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡduiwggNG6k
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlveoBdzop2
"On your song," he answered.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz6bRtjIoTI
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnILK5386kl
"Huh?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0fg8DXFwqb
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjEdCyEHIZ
"The tune you played earlier gave me a little inspiration to somehow come up with an instrumental. It's still not finished since I just started."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkiNncqG1w
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeTKr0o76js
"Wow." I'm surprised. I didn't think Yong-guk would go this far. I didn't even know what to say.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4TpZYSUvF
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg0QiYGcumg
"Hey, are you okay, Sam?" Yong-guk asked.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJy9UaEqtn
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJDCVmvEKv
I quickly turned to look at him. "Huh?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqXPj94W0HJ
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1ZHaTb0Nh
"You spaced out for a bit. Is it a bad idea that I'm working on the instrumental? I know there will probably be someone working on it, but I thought I could do something, you know?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2KZ0oCyLbs
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa5mRXNe0uR
I smiled at him. He really means it. There aren't many people in the world who are so thoughtful.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Umvvk5lL1
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2iNGPp5lTg
"I know what you mean. And no. I think there's no better person to work on it than you, Yong-guk."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3sGlXtzZZ9
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfPvoTxdOT
"Really?" He looked a little surprised with what I said.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ128pzFEnsW
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzXP88cF6Fq
"Of course! Who would've thought we would've you helping us? It's actually really nice of you."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7stM2y26dZ
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMmQ1cfA9L6
I noticed his cheeks start to redden a little and he quickly turned away. I continued to smile. I had this overwhelming feeling like I could hug him, but now isn't the time.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMvUHfJmei
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZbsOStneFX
"May I hear what you've done so far?" I asked.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvoaf1QtSI
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7RySdFfbQl
"Ah..., sure," he said as he brought over the laptop closer.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSaoJsPBqBx
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKs8gsyOWS
He showed me what he had done and even when the instrumental was short, it sounded great. He really did follow the tune and melody like I had done with the guitar. He also added a few beats into the mix making the song sound more like pop.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD54b5Jlpcu
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF34NtHON7P
"Amazing," I looked at him with so much awe. "It's no wonder you're such a great producer."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIm2Ei6sai
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRqGqlljsyk
He chuckled. "Coming from you, that means a lot."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCledcq9iqb
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8J4MYmYMZ
"The others should hear this." My ear twitched. "I know you're there, Mike."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡecEuASa8ti
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTuEVTyQZ0
"Dang it!" I heard him mutter. Yong-guk and I turned around to see him behind us. "How come my cat feet can't work on you?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsbNESXwfwB
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlziYGV76lj
"Because what you've ain't cat feet," I smirked at him. "You've to work a lot harder than that."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEPg7deRQmz
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIRRRKD6AVY
"Anyway....," he came closer and placed his hands on my shoulder and Yong-guk's, "what is it that some of us have to listen to?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWsLFWGKHj
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXeeZ6s9iRT
"This," I said as I pressed the play button on the laptop, playing out the instrumental for him.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdao2AxrLq
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Vo26BFXMY
"Wow," muttered Mike. "But wait..., why does this beat sound familiar?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqpKMtId7G
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGelJ13ysa3
"It's because it's the beat to our song, silly," I said to him.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLCq6pKsJU
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ojgBpSqqs
"Wow! Really!" I saw Mike look at Yong-guk just like I did earlier, with so much awe. "This is what you were working on?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1W1wYsRgzM
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx73pvETSID
Yong-guk nodded his head. Mike almost screamed like a girl, but he tried not to be so loud. I couldn't help but chuckle. He looked like his five year old self when he got a remote control car for his birthday.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1HyEDIIl6c
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJTmIXHUEe
"You're amazing," he said as he patted Yong-guk on the shoulder. "This song will be awesome."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxLezlwFEr
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoz19yAsGGT
"Thanks," he said. "You should be thanking your sister, though."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaU4z0SOYZD
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaDhyZ5Vq9K
"Huh?" Mike and I looked pluzzled.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNRi8VxohTk
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv8AAsEL4uq
"Remember what I said," he said as he looked at me. "The way you played with the guitar inspired me to come up with this."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSW7GryyPln
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnXKlcJk7lQ
"Oh...," I forgot he said that. Now it's my turn to blush, and Yong-guk smiled.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxnfnpP5xk
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jxkELdXUo
"Ya, my sister is a genius," said Mike. "May I join you?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7UAr5qzT4
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLe3xZ3iwoC
"Sure," said Yong-guk. "With you two here, I bet we can work on it together."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeDh9LE6BZO
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXEpR82RJ3
"And probably come up with lyrics for the song," I said when it dawned on me. "That's why you wanted me to come and join you here by the console."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezfgBoXfJC
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11UXQNK0sF
"I see you've got what I intended to do." Yong-guk turned to look at me with a smile. Mike sat on his other side. "I thought working on the instrumental will give you some idea on lyrics for the song."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSsQkjw8Vo
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWk8z34CbF
"We'll see," said Mike as he rubbed his hands together and looking at the console before him like a hot, tasty meal he couldn't wait to put in his mouth.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCHin9a8kk
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVGXRLAvPtC
"Alright, let's start," said Yong-guk.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKJvxoVSy8
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vfZGgV3Z6
The three of us worked on the beats maker software on the laptop. With Mike's creativity and Yong-guk's producer skills, working on the instrumental was smooth and simple. We had no idea how long we had been working on it, but we had fun and joked around whenever we could.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPSMOgLDsV
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9u2FpbQUIn
"Hey, what's going on here?" Himchan asked as he came to join us.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQkC5mx8MEi
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKtFOqbDMwb
"We're working on an instrumental," Mike answered.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMkMYETbrN
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0aqIOgfiug
"Which one?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8yktMd0tD
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7gGu3qgEeG
"For our song," I answered. "You should hear it, it's really good."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡla4YBLmIOI
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOL66G507FN
"Oh, I thought you had run out of ideas for the lyrics."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITYy64hdPP
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRRssZDEMbA
"Well, I did. Maybe if I continue working on the instrumental, I might come up with them."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ058H4ofoLN
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8z9nkTHTy
"How far have you gone doing so?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs65nN8g6ew
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXaKgqwbAP
"Not too far," Yong-guk answered. "We've only tried to work on the first part and heading to the chorus. But even that needs a lot of work."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7t7kFS7gf
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9myX9UdyB
"I agree," said Mike.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVXiL6GkbJW
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfypGAdu0L
"And you're going to use this instrumental for your album?" Himchan asked.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwZopACLSw
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB4M78Qaj8R
"Of course we're," I answered, looking back at him. I now understood why he asked and I winced.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4fObFCUX5F
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNIOLuEJkMb
"What is it, Sam?" Mike asked.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfujLEjMvN
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsRr27VI1db
"We need to seek permission to use this instrumental." I scratched the back of my head. "Goodness, why didn't I think about this before?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCvAlyNjHoK
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ENp0WFMSz
"Oh, ya," Mike turned to look at me quickly. "Why can't you give Collins a call and tell him that we've someone helping us?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0AuHjP9Sr
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡselO8VFeLM
"Collins may agree. But what about Yang Hyun-suk?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKdsDNIPTXY
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcY1MpDe3oy
Mike and I stared at each other. We both winced like we had done something wrong and we would be in big trouble for it.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmIk7YfTlqG
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6sc0kdcSk
"Gosh, the man is troubling," said Mike as he leaned back in his seat. "He can hunt you in your dreams if you think about him too much."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4ZGH8xs7M
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94DtmSVqrG
"He's really strict," I said. "And he's also hard to impress. If we do play out the instrumental for him, would he really like it?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMmkukac5m
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxLpIG18iw8
"This is your tune and melody, Sam. So, he can't refuse. I mean, the song we did with BigBang was all you too."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74Rz4FPBmE
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJSHHYF4evn
"It was?" Yong-guk and Himchan asked at the same time.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Q2ALZw8Yp
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDsUulMQuH0
"Never mind that," I told them as I went back to looking at Mike. "I'm worried because Yong-guk is helping us produce this one. Will Yang Hyun-suk agree?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQZTQSj8EO
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13pV9NtgVt
"As long as he knows you thought of it in the first place, he'll definitely agree." Mike leaned forward so as to look at me.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRie7h2Hl9z
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFVKfQgAmj
"Does this thing involving me always have to be highlighted?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡteFm36fGlb
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZIoqyBlI1F
"Daa, yes! Out of all of us, Yang Hyun-suk approves of you the most. He'll definitely go through with it."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwJrwaG42z
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzV5Tkc4hPG
I gave Mike a look. I don't consider myself as Yang Hyun-suk's favourite among The Toxins. I'm just afraid he won't approve.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRMBUlZHtHE
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6yoNOfs8wc
"Okay, if that's the case, than what of Yong-guk? Will he really help us through till the end?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmwjHLvgfy
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQOyWvxzUF3
"I don't think we've to worry about that. Besides, even if he didn't offer to help, he seemed to do it out of his own free will, you know."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgHhP06ape
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg61Zyqpx1y
"I'm right here, you guys," said Yong-guk in between Mike and me. "I can clearly hear you."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbfwSoI3qTU
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3v8C39yA3
Mike and I turned to look at him, then ignored him like he wasn't there. Himchan chuckled.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDe0M8b74s2
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡusbTPFeN4C
"You're right," I said. "He'll stay till the end. He's such a good friend for helping us out."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9jLYYy8Xn
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz0ue6tmnPi
"I know right," Mike smiled. "He's awesome."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvCN3BiW9fG
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvw8PE3w6Q
"I think you better focus on giving Collins a call, Sam," said Yong-guk, trying to sound serious, yet falling to do so.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1UNYfiHsTH
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxy776GPANI
"Aww," Himchan complained. "Their conversation was just about to get more interesting."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ke4DjHBfZ
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7gMfXVv7L4
I laughed. "He's just trying to hide the fact that he's blushing."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0OnPYU47kV
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPwbCINYY2
"No, I'm not," said Yong-guk as he folded his arms and looked straight ahead, avoiding eye contact.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHpqBYUa1R9
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpy63midRXn
Mike burst out laughing that he leaned back further in his seat. "Stop trying to put up a serious face, Yong-guk," he said. "You look awfully funny."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQdf63bnyH
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6OmIo0RRT
I couldn't help but agree with Mike as I also started laughing. I had to keep in mind that I had a phone call to make. I soon stood up from my seat.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBP4pfZ5rqC
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtRNZZzm7S
"I'll be back," I said as I tried to stop laughing. "You better not have that face when I get back, Yong-guk."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6z0LrDFLz
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP3sqMoxirt
I walked away from the others as I made my way to the door. I needed to be somewhere more private if I am to talk with Collins.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMVGTPZR0gC
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMjzHV3PF0
I stepped out into the hall and looked both ways. There's nobody walking around. I pulled out my phone from my pocket and searched for Collins' number. I pressed the call button and placed the phone to my ear.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcklCDhlFU0
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxEO1ZfvU7X
His phone rang, and it kept on ringing. I grew worried that he might not answer. Maybe he's busy. He did say he would be occupied today. I better call him at a later time.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmohgpy3YuR
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy9ZHizDFwi
Just when I'm about to cut the call, he picked up at the last minute.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjsciHlGkG
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9yWeqCzgOO
"Hi, Sam," came his voice. "How's song writing going?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshb1ff7AEt
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcIUF19HvIC
"Not good, I'm afraid," I said as I scratched the back of my head wondering how to bring up the instrumental thing.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFwjbRa9p5t
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBIkSLRq73N
"You'll figure it out. You do have extra help, don't you?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZPS6UjxZ4p
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIEka9DH9fE
"I see Lee told you about BAP."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWbALJhWgJY
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoULTRXdh1d
"Well, she had to. So what can I do for you?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm8JggTeAUr
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWLkFsmd4gy
"Well, we were working on the song and we felt a little stuck. So we had help with coming up with the instrumental for the song."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZuYXvInfMU
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTYIXwuzZq
"You're already coming up with that?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZzoSTVms3
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCiPODGorFo
I scratched the back of my head even more as I started to pace up and down in front of the door. "Well, ya. You see, Yong-guk - the leader of BAP - kind of got inspired to make us the instrumental because of the way I played it with the guitar. So we were wondering if it's okay with you that we use it for the song."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzXjedV3KX
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCyjR1qaI8
There was silence on the other end. I wonder what Collins must be thinking. He's a little unpredictable sometimes and he might not agree with it.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Ya6HaYUCW
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4u8IXt2YoH
"Well," he started to say, "we would've to listen to it to see if it's actually good. The big problem is whether he should be working on it in the first place."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6yyITspvWl
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj6asjZkxkZ
I knew it. I had to say something quick to convince him.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdNCyZAZfBy
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxCViTlg4f
"I know, but he's really good. And besides, Mike and I are helping out too. You can be rest assured that it will be great."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxaihpYDCf
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyS3EmnmWol
"I believe you. But you know I'm not the only manager in this project of ours."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkdGkC718M
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOItDQIjLX
"If you could talk to Yang Hyun-suk for me, I bet he would agree. Yong-guk is a great producer and he's reputation proves that otherwise."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIR84JJj80M
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMR5MVb7cw
"I don't have to talk to Yang Hyun-suk. He's right here with me. I put you on loud speaker."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7WmzVwGwy
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvpkdDTLnTc
I swallowed as I stopped pacing and my heart did one huge beat that I felt my chest hurt.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjyjJErIWc
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQWuujkKzQ
"Oh..., good afternoon, Yang Hyun-suk sarangnim," I said quickly, so as not to seem surprised.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmHvpVAqyy
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomyqSPtVgk
"Afternoon," came Yang Hyun-suk's voice. I could feel beads of sweet starting to form on my forehead. "I heard everything you had to say."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhfWbyj3hHF
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYxNFqQRoc
"And what do you think?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYP5UKwglql
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQ9PEGklsA
"Well..., as much as the idea sounds tempting, I would actually refuse."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmjqhba2WC
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7FncuJ6bNI
My heart sank. I told myself it was worth a try anyway.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4JmDJ7FY7
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUkCDWZtam
"But," he continued, "we're talking about Bang Yong-guk, and he's reputation, like you've said, precedes him. If he does want to help out and you think he's the right producer for the job, then I've no objection to it. You can proceed with making the instrumental."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAcIN9dyTBK
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8QZSlGE1Yi
"Really!" I cried out in excitement. I can't believe he actually agreed.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx1M4zupp8D
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6iPeKzcImY
"Let's not forget that we're the ones that have the final say. If it's good, then we will proceed."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcnDyhTJigd
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNgzrZzSwH
"Thank you!" I said with so much excitement. I could hear the two managers chuckle to themselves. "I promise you won't be disappointed."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rmAiPeoJT
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxHNVODQHsC
"Make us proud, Sam," said Collins. "I hope you'll be able to come up with lyrics."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbLeeaV6ps
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpdEjaUzcq
"I will. Thank you once again."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvUq5XSuBwQ
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4RPHSd8AOt
The two managers wished me luck. As soon as the line cut, I punched the air with excitement. We're really doing this. I can't wait to tell the others.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOMFbdNekx
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtoy92Ms75h
I turned around and opened the door to the studio. As soon as I went in, I quickly rushed over to the others on the console.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxPmDUqrElR
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWpLH36qMSc
"What's the news?" Mike asked as he looked at me.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2i38b7ybh
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQL41ZBINT
"I hope it's good," said Himchan.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqHWAIk5TR
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdTQjSTQvU
"What news?" asked Daniel who was still seated on the couch. His eyes left the phone as he looked at us who were by the console.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXscPpfKbT
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQQqxlM3TQ
"They agreed," I answered.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7DHT1nIoD
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6c7jYQb4m6
Himchan and Mike clapped, looking relieved. Yong-guk leaned back in his seat, looking cool and composed, but I could tell that he was just as happy as the three of us.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxWR7rMSKi
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYI2LlnEaIq
"Who agreed to what?" Daniel asked as he stood up from his couch to come over and join us. "I want to know what's going on."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ54iP6KkSAu
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGZJye8TRb
"Ya, I'm also anxious to know what you're all talking about," said Daehyun.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRlobmsXEs
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMUfbDKTJKb
"Me too," said Zoey. "What did I miss?"681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJBrvvmaCx
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK66HwARGNy
"A lot," I answered.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEjpXF0agd
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmvwRrU6AF
I told them what was going on and how I somehow managed to talk to the managers to go through with Yong-guk's instrumental.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc52idxgv76
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW2tPdAgJJs
"Wow, that's awesome," said Zelo.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmeZaBWplqj
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEBuRb0p31L
"You see how the managers just love you, Sam?" Mike asked.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCn4tQRHWEF
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡErYKrNlVSY
"No, they don't," I emphasised. "If they don't like the instrumental, we aren't going to use it. So it has to be perfect."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbffAVBekdx
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhenvGhCPb2
"But for them to agree its because they know Yong-guk is an awesome producer," said Himchan. "No doubt it will be lit."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXLx6ofxYJw
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUbr5mNEEv
"I agree with Himchan," said Zoey. "And besides, it's more of Sam's original, so they can't say no."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm9oyUIFo3u
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBeDJueHJkP
"Okay, we just need to focus on the instrumental and hopefully come up with the lyrics," I said.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5VFoTVZbmF
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡficKLVzmzT
"Well, you better work on those fast," said Yong-nam, who was now wide awake, but still laying on the floor. "You don't have much time."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJNbZYJYsQ
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbN0VkUODe0
"Okay," I said as I rubbed my hands together. "Toxins, get over here by the console, please."681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRdL17A3ZKk
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrrBGIeViKO
"Okay," said Christine and Zoey as they both stood up from the couch and quickly came over.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTd9Plh0IH
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs8DfF3bg76
"We will be here to help in anyway we can," said Young-jae.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnybE6FTMW0
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2baOZ1dj3z
"Thanks, guys," I said with a smile. I went over to sit back on my chair next to Yong-guk.681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZKXZNBBTc2
681Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbDMmvA7TQO
"Okay," said Yong-guk. "Let's continue where we ended, shall we?"
