I couldn't keep my mouth closed, and my eyes were filled with wonder as I looked out the window. The car we were in drove through the streets of Seoul with the sun beginning to set in the west and the street lights starting to brighten the streets. The city is just as beautiful as I imagined it. The beautiful skyscrapers, bright TV bulletins, and neon lights almost felt like home in L.A. or New York. But the signs and words on billboards made it quite clear that we're in South Korea now.744Please respect copyright.PENANArss2yZHFET
744Please respect copyright.PENANAZcpjfEvdWA
"Wow, this place looks awesome," said Daniel, who sat beside me and was also looking out of the window.744Please respect copyright.PENANAimmdh8bpMW
744Please respect copyright.PENANAAAzJZ57nVV
"I know, right? It's like a dream come true that we're here," said Christine, who sat behind me.744Please respect copyright.PENANAXHI2DqcaOb
744Please respect copyright.PENANAYM7Ltlv94X
"OMG, is that an ancient palace?" I asked when I saw what looked like one from afar. Before coming here, I made sure to Google some wonderful sites I would like to visit. I had a huge interest in ancient palaces.744Please respect copyright.PENANAoX6hKPJs6s
744Please respect copyright.PENANAypSSGDCI8V
"It is," said Collins. "Beautiful, isn't it?"744Please respect copyright.PENANAHFLHvjXL3N
744Please respect copyright.PENANAEIaYlpPw9O
"It sure is," I said with a smile as we quickly lost sight of it.744Please respect copyright.PENANA37YgtA0KW9
744Please respect copyright.PENANAl2Fc9vOlvh
We continued to follow the car ahead and soon found ourselves at a beautiful hotel: the Seoul Hotel. Before we could get out of the car, bright, flashing lights came into view through the windows. The paparazzi. It looks like news travels fast around here too. These people always made me feel uncomfortable.744Please respect copyright.PENANAR7gK6PTVLv
744Please respect copyright.PENANAgGWWV7D2U7
When the doors of the car flew open, Collins and Lee stepped out first. Mike, Zoey, and Christine excitedly followed. If there's one thing they like about being famous, it's the bright lights and attention. Even though we've been in the spotlight for almost two years, I'm still not used to it, especially dealing with the paparazzi and reporters. The attention I get from my fans is more than enough.744Please respect copyright.PENANApibP8DURUI
744Please respect copyright.PENANA5XFwtCeOR0
"Hey, aren't you coming?" Daniel asked, bringing me back from my thoughts.744Please respect copyright.PENANAWUPXClrF6N
744Please respect copyright.PENANAbcRIY68RcQ
"Yeah, I am," I said, trying to pull myself together.744Please respect copyright.PENANAGF1sy0YrFd
744Please respect copyright.PENANAew3mdHmkDk
"I know you've never liked this, but The Toxins aren't The Toxins without you," he said, giving me an encouraging smile.744Please respect copyright.PENANADNaimks9io
744Please respect copyright.PENANAYq2XBlfPdm
"It's going to take years for me to get over this."744Please respect copyright.PENANAgrsz71oIOR
744Please respect copyright.PENANA39gK4v1ErK
"Yeah, I know. Come on, we have to go."744Please respect copyright.PENANAGSj7WChUc6
744Please respect copyright.PENANAE7dOqBRpXY
Daniel got out of the car, leaving me all alone. I take a deep breath, getting myself ready to step out. Before I could even get the chance, a hand appeared before me. G-Dragon is standing outside the car with his hand stretched out for me to hold on to. For the moment, I can't stop staring at him. I looked at his hand, then back. I don't know what to do, and I couldn't help but blush.744Please respect copyright.PENANA8ybP70h7Va
744Please respect copyright.PENANAOQQ4I0DzVY
"Come on, we're all waiting for you," he said with a smile. "Take my hand."744Please respect copyright.PENANAbjKVyWcTxB
744Please respect copyright.PENANAmCp7eE8rN7
I continued to look at him, contemplating what to do next. I finally took his hand, and he delicately held mine, slowly leading me out of the car.744Please respect copyright.PENANAyN39fde8QT
744Please respect copyright.PENANA0xZqrmpEvb
The flashing lights of the cameras turned on me immediately after I put my foot out. When I fully stepped out, G-Dragon stood beside me with his hand still wrapped around mine. The cameramen and reporters were calling out to me to grab my attention. This is the part where I always try to get over my irritation and smile.744Please respect copyright.PENANARDzMrbHEcv
744Please respect copyright.PENANAAyjjs8ep1G
G-Dragon led me down the aisle that led to the glass doors of the hotel. The rest of The Toxins and BIGBANG were already ahead, getting their pictures taken, but soon most of the media's attention turned to G-Dragon and me. They kept on calling out to us, and we paused to have our picture taken together. I am already losing my nerve, and all this made my body go stiff.744Please respect copyright.PENANAjKLuJHj0B3
744Please respect copyright.PENANA4TxA6zpxQb
"Woah, relax, B.K." said G-Dragon as he smiled for the camera. "You don't seem too comfortable."744Please respect copyright.PENANAYOhRO4pbpn
744Please respect copyright.PENANAiBRjpy2o7b
I blush. It looks like he read my body language. Well, this is embarrassing.744Please respect copyright.PENANAbwhsYegzV4
744Please respect copyright.PENANAmtd2joqF06
"I don't like getting all the attention," I told him as I spoke in his ear.744Please respect copyright.PENANAGzHIZmedcC
744Please respect copyright.PENANA7cN9nbSatc
"You deserve it." He said this while he looked at me. "Just like the whole world has their attention on you, you have mine too."744Please respect copyright.PENANAY0aHBppweT
744Please respect copyright.PENANAIPtalop932
Is he flirting with me? I can't tell since I can't think straight with all that's going on around us. I hadn't noticed that we were so close and that he was still holding my hand. Likewise, I wanted to pull away, but that would only look rude in front of everyone. It would also be a juicy scene for the media to show and tell.744Please respect copyright.PENANAN4QK9bxMMy
744Please respect copyright.PENANANHQmIVQUVs
He gave me that irresistible smile, and I felt like melting. He left me utterly speechless.744Please respect copyright.PENANASojWnimDpN
744Please respect copyright.PENANAcrt3uz0C6k
"Come, let's join the others," he said, and we continued to walk hand in hand down the aisle.744Please respect copyright.PENANAjNNIZBB5a3
744Please respect copyright.PENANAfZk4ZkXc8h
When we got to them, we all took several group photos together. Afterwards, we went through the doors of the hotel. The media remained outside as the security guards barricaded the doors. It's always a relief to get away from those vultures.744Please respect copyright.PENANAbLkBnNLq1c
744Please respect copyright.PENANAbFqMyvQzY9
"I think you can let go of my hand now," I said as I turned to face G-Dragon.744Please respect copyright.PENANA9U6MnYnwoL
744Please respect copyright.PENANA3zZWaogBtk
"I let go of your hand, or you let go of mine?" he asked.744Please respect copyright.PENANAxV8oykM8Fu
744Please respect copyright.PENANA5WkyanhFZy
I got confused, and the smirk on his face almost made me lose my mind. I want to look down at our hands, but that would only make things even more awkward. He's doing this just to torture me.744Please respect copyright.PENANAyO6MrkqeAM
744Please respect copyright.PENANADUWlDGkR8u
I quickly slipped my hand away from his and folded my arms. He smiles and walks away, slightly brushing my shoulder with his, intentionally. I let out a sigh of relief when he left to join the others. Is it just me, or did it feel so hot in the lobby that I couldn't even breathe?744Please respect copyright.PENANAzcvg64DGX2
744Please respect copyright.PENANA7wRR2XEF24
Collins, Lee, and Yang Hyun-suk were by the reception desk, checking if our rooms were ready. The Toxins were huddled up with BIGBANG, talking and laughing about who knows what. They all seem to be getting along just fine. When I look around, I notice that the guards inside the lobby have made a circle around us. People were coming from the elevators, and others using the stairs coming into the lobby had their eyes on us. Some even had their phones out, taking pictures and videos. A small group of teenage girls were excited upon seeing The Toxins and BIGBANG together.744Please respect copyright.PENANAH75LRUyB8v
744Please respect copyright.PENANAUOunsdV5vx
"I see that Ji Yong is troubling you," said Taeyang as he came over, breaking away from the others.744Please respect copyright.PENANASsSUL6szs8
744Please respect copyright.PENANAmxex9PItA5
"Well, not really," I said. "And here I thought Seungri was the devious one."744Please respect copyright.PENANALCf2zVDTYQ
744Please respect copyright.PENANALHwGJwe6uB
"Don't mind him. He does that all the time."744Please respect copyright.PENANAfgEiMCQDlk
744Please respect copyright.PENANASEy0dsFFC0
"Does he do that just to make any girl fall for him?"744Please respect copyright.PENANAZhWdGOFjVa
744Please respect copyright.PENANA9bfQH8zrwq
"Not really. The thing is, no one ever knows what his real intentions are."744Please respect copyright.PENANA9aQ2TxpT4y
744Please respect copyright.PENANAX54VLqBKVY
"Thanks. I'll keep that in mind." I smiled.744Please respect copyright.PENANA6ClwssIdGZ
744Please respect copyright.PENANAxbbVxZ8aGU
"I noticed that the two of you were holding hands earlier. That's going to be all over the news."744Please respect copyright.PENANAen1pnRprVf
744Please respect copyright.PENANAnVH1eh1GRx
"Yeah, I'm definitely screwed." I playfully hit my head with my hand, laughing nervously. "People would start to think otherwise, huh?"744Please respect copyright.PENANA7YlrJ75Sei
744Please respect copyright.PENANAZaLXCNuXRA
"I don't think people would come to any conclusion. You just met."744Please respect copyright.PENANAFaOV77Xv9G
744Please respect copyright.PENANAdSxgKGi2x3
"Yeah, I guess so. I worry for no reason."744Please respect copyright.PENANApqSTNchKeY
744Please respect copyright.PENANAdOmqHjrPyX
"Don't feel relaxed, though. The media knows how to twist things around."744Please respect copyright.PENANA9Q7rh8qmjW
744Please respect copyright.PENANAUS71AJ5VTH
"I've been there before; it did not go well."744Please respect copyright.PENANA9qWUTB7eHp
744Please respect copyright.PENANACEZWeMbGNL
While Taeyang and I continued talking, we soon heard noises. There seemed to be confusion outside the circle of guards. The next thing I knew, I felt something grab my leg, and when I looked, I gasped.744Please respect copyright.PENANAOQxF4rQtSV
744Please respect copyright.PENANAIo7ojiUED1
Holding onto my leg is a beautiful young girl in a lovely white dress. She looked to be three to four years old. And I am captivated by her cuteness.744Please respect copyright.PENANAZnm8lAuFvF
744Please respect copyright.PENANAwELLXx6NnR
"Aww, look who we have here," I said softly. I went down on one knee after the little girl let go of my leg. I gently held her chin up, and she gave me a bright smile. Likewise, I smiled back.744Please respect copyright.PENANA4AKV8hPW7R
744Please respect copyright.PENANA6vDrxWdlB9
"She's so cute. What do you think?" I asked Taeyang.744Please respect copyright.PENANA6BsAQZfsVh
744Please respect copyright.PENANA9thAgOLTG6
"She is," he replied. "It seems she likes you."744Please respect copyright.PENANAogjrRIaYHg
744Please respect copyright.PENANAO9wg7dUBr8
I smiled at Taeyang, and I looked back at the little girl. She stretched out her hand to me, and in it was a beautiful white flower, which she held by the stem. I looked at it, then back at the young girl, whose bright smile made my heart flutter.744Please respect copyright.PENANAdmsUNs0wnd
744Please respect copyright.PENANAUSEqlPp7rm
"Is this for me?" I asked softly.744Please respect copyright.PENANA4OKQ9d5tST
744Please respect copyright.PENANAWfnhB4WKJa
The little girl nodded, and my smile widened even more. I slowly took the white flower, then carried the little girl in my arms, hugging her.744Please respect copyright.PENANA3VuWYWJ36E
744Please respect copyright.PENANAQa4e2PCX6A
I noticed that all this took everyone's attention, and people were either filming or taking pictures. They still kept their distance because of the guards. I stood up straight with the girl in my arms and ran my hand through her black, silky hair. I start to look around for the girl's parents when I see a woman standing outside the circle, staring at the girl in my arms. It seems like she's the girl's mother because she had a look on her face only a mother could have. The little girl looked on at the same woman, and I made the connection. I make my way over to her.744Please respect copyright.PENANAsUg5jf2T8G
744Please respect copyright.PENANAeLmXQh9hgu
"Sorry for the trouble," the woman said to me when I got closer. "She can really be jumpy sometimes."744Please respect copyright.PENANAR2iYcGjBBL
744Please respect copyright.PENANAtHh4LFgUGW
"No, not at all," I said. "You've got a very beautiful daughter."744Please respect copyright.PENANAHo51dGceLW
744Please respect copyright.PENANA5eZQiFKioN
"Thank you," the woman said with a smile.744Please respect copyright.PENANAa4BsgngGpm
744Please respect copyright.PENANAl22x1F0UT7
The guards standing between the woman and me made way, and I gave the little girl back to her mother. The girl waved goodbye, and I also did the same. The woman took her daughter away, heading for the elevator. I looked at the flower in my hand and smiled. When I turned around, everybody else in the circle, including the two managers and Lee, was staring at me.744Please respect copyright.PENANALNhNYoPoJQ
744Please respect copyright.PENANA8MlafTDm6Y
"What?" I shrug my shoulders.744Please respect copyright.PENANAyodARSHiSO
744Please respect copyright.PENANAIXeuCWHiRb
Taeyang looked at me in a way I can't describe. I can't tell if he was amazed at what happened or at me. In any way, he made me blush, and I felt uncomfortable in my own skin.744Please respect copyright.PENANAROzH2rStpG
744Please respect copyright.PENANAfT7LBt1SV5
"Why are you looking at me like that?" I ask him.744Please respect copyright.PENANAhRraoqcEfu
744Please respect copyright.PENANAiAtZ5g90ID
"Um, nothing," Taeyang said with a smile. "I was only wondering. That little girl really likes you, and you seem to be good with children."744Please respect copyright.PENANATbz9qnxgep
744Please respect copyright.PENANA4zN7qxdwMZ
"Or she was just an adorable, cute fan of mine that managed to pass through the guards just to give me a flower."744Please respect copyright.PENANA4dfRQdw84E
744Please respect copyright.PENANAo9IqEGnTDh
Taeyang laughed, and I blushed even more. I looked the other way so that he wouldn't notice.744Please respect copyright.PENANAtD6CV0AeFG
744Please respect copyright.PENANAFWC0wRx9Q3
"You don't know how valuable you are, do you?"744Please respect copyright.PENANAamGPHvA4sa
744Please respect copyright.PENANAdecMQniuD7
I look at him, and my heart begins to race. What did he mean by that? Somehow, I felt like I knew, but I didn't want to acknowledge it. I looked down at my feet, not even willing to look up.744Please respect copyright.PENANAEDf3mPSPPB
744Please respect copyright.PENANA9kNv2Qxhxo
I felt Taeyang hold the bottom of my chin with his fingers and slowly lift my face to stare into his kind eyes. For a moment, I got lost in them.744Please respect copyright.PENANAMBA6NNTwU5
744Please respect copyright.PENANA5SvObOvYAi
"Did I say something wrong?" he asked softly. Damn! His voice was like music to my ears, and I felt so drawn to him. Wake up, Sam, I told myself. I have to snap out of it.744Please respect copyright.PENANAhiPIRuwbSB
744Please respect copyright.PENANArT9a6RGKSF
"I'm sorry if I did," he continued when I didn't answer. Dang it! That sweet voice moved me again. "But you do know how extraordinary you are, don't you?"744Please respect copyright.PENANA838D8Prg7M
744Please respect copyright.PENANApKNVDLGqE2
I swallowed. That's one question I couldn't answer. Luckily, Collins announced that it was time to go up to our rooms. That's a relief. At the moment, I wanted to be as far away from every BIGBANG member as possible.744Please respect copyright.PENANA6idVn8xkOt
744Please respect copyright.PENANAKTpNTrm3Cr
"Come on, Sam," said Zoey, who had a huge smile on her face as she headed for the elevator. Christine and Daniel followed.744Please respect copyright.PENANA1QmeaU0PTi
744Please respect copyright.PENANAs16O7VmRlI
"I better get going," I told Taeyang.744Please respect copyright.PENANA7bTj07NNM2
744Please respect copyright.PENANAxY7DHQvoL9
"See you tomorrow, then," he said. "Maybe then we can get on the dance floor and see who has the best moves."744Please respect copyright.PENANAATdbI7LqSi
744Please respect copyright.PENANAwswKJxLywF
"You're on," said Mike as he walked past us, joining the others in the elevator.744Please respect copyright.PENANA59EPhhP1zn
744Please respect copyright.PENANA6TQCTRw1Oh
"I'll see you tomorrow," I said.744Please respect copyright.PENANAZzDRYQJI3R
744Please respect copyright.PENANA7tVKQdNohN
"Make sure you dream about me, alright?" came T.O.P.'s voice as he came and whispered right in my ear. I didn't see him coming, and I felt a chill run down my spine at the sound of his husky voice. These guys are driving me crazy.744Please respect copyright.PENANAOOXEYkr5P4
744Please respect copyright.PENANAeB1kaJRsDD
"See you tomorrow, T.O.P." I turned around to face him as he gave me that bad-boy smile of his.744Please respect copyright.PENANAmHME3NMcBa
744Please respect copyright.PENANA9zpPQVGuZZ
I said goodbye to Daesung and Seungri, who both hugged me in return. G-Dragon came over, and I wanted to roll my eyes at him but surprisingly failed to do so. I'm not ready to put up with him again. I felt like running for my life towards the elevator, but I stood there, waiting for what was to come.744Please respect copyright.PENANAV33InInaaf
744Please respect copyright.PENANAFaxzdAphqg
"Goodnight and sweet dreams, my little black kitty," he said softly. My eyes almost fell out of their sockets when he said that.744Please respect copyright.PENANAD5LoVMeI0K
744Please respect copyright.PENANAXd2ZFqcptz
"What did you-?"744Please respect copyright.PENANAb6bbB9Q5xa
744Please respect copyright.PENANAkM8JiO2JBb
Before I could finish my sentence, G-Dragon quickly pecked me on the cheek. I am so stunned that I can't move. I didn't know he would do that, and it felt wrong on so many levels.744Please respect copyright.PENANAwzdastf1ml
744Please respect copyright.PENANAWHObRHid2s
When I gather my composure, I quickly walk away and join the others in the elevator. Before the doors closed, I looked up to see G-Dragon staring at me with that corky smile on his face, and he gave me a wink.744Please respect copyright.PENANAeSVyK2BwKW

744Please respect copyright.PENANA94kEtiS73N
"What just happened out there?" Zoey asked.744Please respect copyright.PENANAhDsERvaWhX
744Please respect copyright.PENANAkgdmwTU6A0
I threw myself onto the comfortable bed, landing on my back with my eyes closed. I want to forget all that has happened. Furthermore, I feel so tired, and I need to rest, but my mind won't let me. And so is Zoey.744Please respect copyright.PENANAEqFafopXa5
744Please respect copyright.PENANA6dA0DhadaX
"Hello, B.K. I'm talking to you." I felt Zoey come to sit beside me and shake me.744Please respect copyright.PENANA4Re3TId2Gm
744Please respect copyright.PENANAITTzYO3WQ0
"May I please rest?" I whined with my eyes still closed. "You know I'm tired."744Please respect copyright.PENANAidrsvClUQa
744Please respect copyright.PENANAArhbrCfFXR
"You aren't resting until you tell me what happened down there in the lobby."744Please respect copyright.PENANAZHqZEWyDgE
744Please respect copyright.PENANAEeEGvlB1Au
"So many things happened today," I said as I opened my eyes. "I suggest you be more specific."744Please respect copyright.PENANAinWTxsBRb3
744Please respect copyright.PENANAoDE7u35b4O
"Let's start with the time you were walking down the aisle with G-Dragon."744Please respect copyright.PENANAAjgda9TIKO
744Please respect copyright.PENANAqX2x2SFFd3
"What?" I sat up. "Don't tell me you are jealous."744Please respect copyright.PENANAdTGJcqh918
744Please respect copyright.PENANAf6GITM50bh
"You heard me. Start talking." Zoey looked at me in a way that my mother would whenever I did something wrong.744Please respect copyright.PENANAEUc0je3URN
744Please respect copyright.PENANAaiE6S9FSrJ
"You're jealous," mocked Christine, who sat on the other bed opposite Zoey and me.744Please respect copyright.PENANAYqgLx88TAR
744Please respect copyright.PENANAYQG0qdopXV
"Christine, ssh! Come on, Sam, start talking." Zoey looked serious. That didn't shock me at all.744Please respect copyright.PENANALqmmDkhyFm
744Please respect copyright.PENANA43UHLt9f8x
I shrugged my shoulders. "It was nothing, really. He just helped me out of the car, and we walked down the aisle together."744Please respect copyright.PENANARxayWLjVow
744Please respect copyright.PENANA79c1doDAT6
"Really? You two were walking down the aisle like newlyweds! And he gave you a goodbye kiss before we left." She sighed. "I wish he gave me one too."744Please respect copyright.PENANAkHglo9i0PR
744Please respect copyright.PENANAV710pr3W39
"You're overreacting, Zoey." I roll my eyes. "It's not like we'll ever be in a relationship. Apart from being friends, that is."744Please respect copyright.PENANATd68LIlsdz
744Please respect copyright.PENANAOHvkTZe7jM
"I know," said Christine. "We just met these guys today, and you're already making a mountain out of a molehill."744Please respect copyright.PENANAsDg6BDWUYp
744Please respect copyright.PENANAHNgOhlKy8K
"And you think Taeyang wasn't drooling over Sam in the lobby?" Zoey asked. "I thought you liked Tae."744Please respect copyright.PENANAbqq3haSI0T
744Please respect copyright.PENANArAwSyyk2T6
"Yeah, but he's already dating someone else, so I'm not worried," said Christine with a smile on her face. "I only like him because I'm a fan. You, on the other hand, are acting like once upon a time, G-Dragon was your boyfriend, and then you two broke up when you just met him face-to-face today."744Please respect copyright.PENANAWDZbAcn2Tw
744Please respect copyright.PENANAk8rTg2MZob
"I agree," I said. "You are one hell of a drama queen, Zoey. You can have G-Dragon because I'm not interested."744Please respect copyright.PENANAVz7my0PwKH
744Please respect copyright.PENANAsxUlZ45E8O
"Okay, fine," said Zoey. "I might have been a little jealous."744Please respect copyright.PENANA68JQ5VlYzw
744Please respect copyright.PENANA6FOcPqPlUx
Zoey gave me puppy-dog eyes so that I could forgive her. I smile and shake my head, but she persistently continues with the look.744Please respect copyright.PENANA5CWZRH81Zo
744Please respect copyright.PENANAoQMqQI74Du
"Please stop doing that; you're no longer three." I laughed.744Please respect copyright.PENANAanY2NaiZaq
744Please respect copyright.PENANAUqDWUtqMCE
"Whatever. I'm just excited that I'm finally in Korea," she said with a grin.744Please respect copyright.PENANAtED1mFjWrF
744Please respect copyright.PENANApN5BPi3Wjm
"Yeah, me too." I stood and walked over to the window. The sky was completely dark, and the bright lights of the city shone brightly in the dark night.744Please respect copyright.PENANAejmmtYojDL
744Please respect copyright.PENANAKtRCUSdLba
"So, Christine, you're going to share the other room with Lee," I heard Zoey tell Christine. "Sam and I will be in this room. Wow, these beds are so comfortable." I hear her bounce up and down. "I'll sleep like a baby tonight."744Please respect copyright.PENANAhqryLS3Kyf
744Please respect copyright.PENANA499ZwLY0sh
All of a sudden, the door to the room flew open, and Lee came flying in, landing on the other bed Christine is sitting on. We all look at her, wondering what's going on.744Please respect copyright.PENANANt41CfMMXB
744Please respect copyright.PENANA3ZFg0UKFZX
"Hey, are you okay?" Christine asked.744Please respect copyright.PENANAAmW2onMV1A
744Please respect copyright.PENANAyyBudXyY2z
"Have you checked what's online?" Lee asked, almost out of breath.744Please respect copyright.PENANAWZZMICXJ9N
744Please respect copyright.PENANANVFEBgP3VE
"Um, no," Zoey replied. "What is it?"744Please respect copyright.PENANAJ8tdgKuRRf
744Please respect copyright.PENANA0Ou0QuXaGG
"Sam, you're everywhere, like everywhere," said Lee as she looked at me. She clearly isn't making any sense.744Please respect copyright.PENANAU2Stvpevul
744Please respect copyright.PENANAMYpL8MjpP7
"I'm everywhere? What do you mean?" I asked.744Please respect copyright.PENANAWBxgXfKwv4
744Please respect copyright.PENANAx7PxOahE5w
"Pictures of you with G-Dragon, the time you were with that little girl and Taeyang, everything. People are just talking about you!"744Please respect copyright.PENANAefd7UbqRQr
744Please respect copyright.PENANA6z7qhftFR5
Lee had her phone, and she held it up for all of us to see. Christine, Zoey, and I got close enough to look at the screen. And just like she said, there were many pictures of me and G-Dragon. Lee continued to scroll downward. There were more: some with me and the little girl, and others with Taeyang. There were also pictures of all The Toxins and BIGBANG members, but the photos of me were a little too much.744Please respect copyright.PENANAip03xTw8eL
744Please respect copyright.PENANA2VETN8P8LW
"Wow, I'm not looking forward to seeing the entertainment news tomorrow," I said as I continued to look at the pictures.744Please respect copyright.PENANARQeCoxzpFa

"OMG!" said Zoey, her eyes still fixed on the screen. "There are pictures of you everywhere, Sam."744Please respect copyright.PENANAuEhFtDoLju
744Please respect copyright.PENANAdefKRiQbxr
"Nah, we're all there," I said. "I'm just a little unfortunate."744Please respect copyright.PENANAZVGjjZpxr9
744Please respect copyright.PENANAdU69nlcvqv
"Did you just say unfortunate?" Zoey asked as she looked at me with her eyebrows raised. "So many pictures of you, and you're saying you're unfortunate?"744Please respect copyright.PENANAT08Bwv21Wt

"Okay, I better shut up because I'm clearly not helping," I said as I walked back to the window.744Please respect copyright.PENANA0j0YcpaRtO

Suddenly, Mike and Daniel came into the room through the open door.744Please respect copyright.PENANAc3Fj1JBrgU
744Please respect copyright.PENANArBNGECojsK
"Guys, you're supposed to knock first," said Christine. "This is a girls' room, you know."744Please respect copyright.PENANAcwDFFnEtxf
744Please respect copyright.PENANAID8xdGzNe7
"You won't believe what's on Facebook," said Mike, completely ignoring Christine.744Please respect copyright.PENANAtMtxKiKsLQ
744Please respect copyright.PENANAeR8e7Pxllg
"If you're talking about Sam, we already know," said Zoey.744Please respect copyright.PENANAkJXxn8FTlh
744Please respect copyright.PENANAMuANmRnpmW
"This is annoying," I said. "I didn't want this."744Please respect copyright.PENANASm4wd3ScG6

"No one said you did," said Lee. "It just so happens that you caught people's attention."744Please respect copyright.PENANAxA0yPS6D3p
744Please respect copyright.PENANAGkIZ8dpMc9
"It looks like you've gained so much attention yet again," said Daniel. "Wait until Collins sees this."744Please respect copyright.PENANAIIxEpMsnyl
744Please respect copyright.PENANA242QiWDRGU
"I'm so tired right now," said Christine as she yawned. "But I need to have something to eat first."744Please respect copyright.PENANAjVQeI0pmFR
744Please respect copyright.PENANATPYb931ugA
"Food will be brought up soon," said Lee. "Collins thinks it's too risky to go downstairs since there are still fans and the media around."744Please respect copyright.PENANA3Pr61HPdYy

"Staying here is fine with me," I said. "As long as I don't get my picture taken putting something in my mouth."744Please respect copyright.PENANASmbYdJbfyb
744Please respect copyright.PENANAzyVPLvKuiN
"Haha, now you're just exaggerating," said Zoey. "Just accept that somehow you caught the world's attention. Besides, this isn't the first time the Black Kitty has stolen the show."744Please respect copyright.PENANA4tqxbYK1ui
744Please respect copyright.PENANAzActObTvu9
I look at Zoey, and I have to admit, she's right. There were plenty of times when I "stole the show," as everybody puts it. But this time, it wasn't the whole U.S., but South Korea and other parts of the world combined. I'm not ready to check my phone because of all the notifications I would receive. I might as well just flush it down the toilet.744Please respect copyright.PENANAlNT5DIBLvI

Looking out the window upon the beautiful city, still holding the flower the little girl gave me in my hand, I couldn't help but think of what Taeyang told me down in the lobby if I knew how valuable I am. I felt like a priceless diamond for the entire world to see. Some people would have liked the feeling, but I didn't.744Please respect copyright.PENANAjFkteMLDSa

When supper arrived, we all ate, and everyone retired to sleep soon afterwards. As I lay down on my bed and Zoey is fast asleep on the other, I can't help but think of what will happen tomorrow. We were going to take a tour of Seoul. I am already so filled with excitement that I forgot all about the drama with BIGBANG, the media, and everything else. In what felt like seconds, I quickly dozed off to sleep.
