The water felt like a 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdG3aiYWxD
safe haven and I didn't want to get out. For some reason, it felt so 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡanUMhNF1tB
warm and nice. I didn't want to go above the surface and face all the 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZK5ek7mayd
troubles out there. But I couldn't stay in water forever. That's 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlmHhSN0ZL
obvious. I didn't want to die in here and sooner or later, I had to 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGvrqFx224
breathe. 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8qOuG76ux
I pushed myself upwards 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Eudj9KZGu
and my head stuck out of the water's surface. I took in a deep breath of818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhgB2cPbEAH
fresh air and I shook my head to shake the water out of my eyes. I 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdZDFQ8Hfj
opened my eyes fully and as I looked around the pool, I swam to the 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfN8YFIg9uF
edge.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomFFo6wg3J
When I finally got myself out, I saw Hyo-rin, Seungri and TOP run towards me. Taeyang and Daesung also appeared.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckK2labMBm
"Sam, are you okay?" Hyo-rin asked, when she got closer.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefI0LP3bgD
"I've never been better," I answered as I looked at myself.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNXYDM2qGdJ
I looked ridiculously 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14lkd39CH7
wet, that's for sure. My clothes felt so heavy. I pulled out my phone 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV3XuxCndAy
from the pocket and it was all wet and ruined. I sucked my teeth in 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDl5PLAgSP
irritation. So much for having a cool fancy iPhone only to find it 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp0kTqjkuK3
taking a dive with you into the water. I put my phone back in my wet 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShul3CpWk9
pocket. My day couldn't get any better than this.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVqk1qkem7B
I looked around me and 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdUoP3BM0Aa
luckily, the little drama I had had with G-Dragon at the top of the 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsw8oSvApyD
rocks, hadn't caught so many people's attention, but only to a few of 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7xwuVR0pS6
those who were in the same pool I had fallen in. That was a relief. The 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqp8ejIKsOc
last thing I wanted was to look embarrassed in front of the whole world.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPLb7ruVlp
"You need a towel," said TOP. "You're soaking wet, and you need a change of clothes too."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhJ1eK5rjb
"No need," I said as I started to remove my wet sneakers and water poured out of them. "We've to go."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJuxLKJaesz
I heard Zoey and the 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVyRAaHU9Vc
others' laughter and cheering on the other side of the pool. I looked on818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuK7itoYX0o
and I saw the others approach G-Dragon after he climbed down the rocks.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwilelltxx
They surrounded and cheered for him as though he was a hero. 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAey0Z6hiVj
"Sam?" I heard Taeyang's818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhYxe3gUvMN
voice as he held my shoulder. "You don't look okay at all. And you 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKlSTkPV6Pl
really need a change of clothes or else you're going to catch a cold."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk9r0iIvelb
"I already told you, I'm818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf36FTj98x7
fine," I said as I slowly brushed off Taeyang's hand from my shoulder. I818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBuxtHnkk6h
didn't want to be rude, but I was so not in the mood for consolation 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZESIbzyxT
from anyone.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKeQ6Qo5In
I made my way towards GD818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlbYAvm73x8
and the others, while they were chattering on with excitement over what818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ty5l2TMGE
had happened. Hyo-rin and the rest followed behind me. As the Toxins 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHlTfnZ32T
and G-Dragon saw me approach them, Zoey came forward.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTpbvEWeFup
"Oh, man, Sam," said 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBSAItrBLiG
Zoey, with a ridiculous smile on her face. "You should really see 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11Iz5Gue59
yourself. Sorry for all that, but we had to add a little spice to the 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEiulTzFQxS
game. Hope you didn't mind."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJX79cu3vX
"Can we just go back to YG?" I asked, with no hint of emotion on my face. "I've had a long day."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0QrKnquLtJ
"Go back to YG?" Zoey asked with a surprised look on her face. "I thought we were going back to the hotel."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62qXuoKgXX
"I told you, our 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡziMotMDiyH
managers need us back there. And as usual, you never listen to me." I 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYSg3Ph5c6
rolled my eyes as I soon remembered something. "Speaking of our 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTpuLNr9gi
managers, Daesung, may I use your phone, please?" I looked over at 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xwkB4e916
Daesung.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdy3a3eRduE
"Ya, sure," said Daesung, as he gave it to me.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡldbiYwJAxf
I dialled Lee's number 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeoWh59WsJR
and I placed the phone to my ear. The Toxins and G-Dragon looked on at 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC6DsyFeIT2
me, clueless. They were obviously wondering why I was making a call. 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEoKUKxwDLt
They would know soon enough.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO5CI3lOBSn
"Hello?" came Lee's voice at the other end of the line.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPYfyHYrA7
"Lee, it's Sam," I answered.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5TiTI4eWzV
"Sam, thank goodness, you called. Did you find them?"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNrs1zXc0RA
"Ya, I found them," I said, as I looked on at the culprits in front of me. "Do our managers know anything?"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡviyrgyFkZ9
"No, not yet. But you 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZxE6My2bo
better get back here quick. I can't keep them locked up much longer. And818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhRaynVX82
the press have been waiting for you, so you better hurry."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wPUP5CLFf
"We'll be there in thirty minutes."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3IereKqTB1
"Okay, I'll be waiting."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTB4KTZtL54
I cut the call and gave Daesung his phone back.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrTrNW9RxBQ
"Wait, Sam, what's going on?" Daniel asked. "Why were you talking to Lee? Is something wrong?"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPwTtDEgY8
"Everything is wrong," I answered, trying to keep my cool. "I'll tell you later. We better go now."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT52UfEqe4s
"At least tell us what's going on," said Christine. 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdHwBfYgeZ
"It's best we get to YG first," said Seungri. "We're wasting a lot of time here."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIxOvYaDHCW
"Come on. You heard Seungri, we don't have much time," I said.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2KtKNX5JK6
"But you better change your clothes first," said Zoey. "You know you easily catch a cold. At least get a towel to dry yourself."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0868IlEbb
I shook my head. I was 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8UqjeYXIq1
really on the edge of losing my temper. But I quickly took in a deep 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeVk8SWnn81
breath and started to walk away from the pool and the others in my bare 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFa58GxZIeQ
wet feet and carrying my wet sneakers.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqYrHL46z0
After walking a few feet818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡonjVGPn2AQ
away, I looked behind me and the others just stared at me, with 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyimVBk97mE
surprised and confused looks on their faces. The last thing I wanted was818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BYjr0njkA
for them to just stand there because they would end up grabbing other 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdu9yBcWeT
people's attention which I was highly trying to avoid.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQs4Q0OVt3
"Aren't you coming or are you going to run off so that I go looking for you again?" I asked.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxLrQ1op5s
None of them answered as818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5J7QoKOFSC
they all started walking towards me and walked past heading for the 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCfTlzHue9U
exit. I stayed for a few minutes from where I stood as I watched them 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz14y7y3LQE
go, except for TOP, who came to stand beside me.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNR46ekbPt
"Don't say a word, please," I said as I turned to look at him.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHHuGZ8Dnw
"I wasn't going to say 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUI2PzxcSnS
anything, apparently," said TOP. "I know you're angry and the last thing818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ40Pi9PD005
you would want to hear from me is advice."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTozis7vDBk
I turned to look the other way as I now felt a little guilty. 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjtnV1REafw
"Was I harsh on them?" I asked quietly.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxa6wHG8oz
"To be honest, you did the best you could not to let your anger get the best of you."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0WlvqJyvFz
"I'm still upset, though."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOX57VYpWB
"And that's normal. They will understand. You're human too."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeIsIHSiYFl
"Thanks, TOP." I said, trying to put up a smile. "Sorry for being harsh on you earlier."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhlgLP03LL
"It's okay. You guys go on ahead. I'll go get changed and I'll catch up with you later."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxrehYWS7E
I gave TOP an assuring 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxggY9QzLfQ
nod and he gave me a pat on my shoulder and walked away. I was on my way818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPKkJDS9qw8
again and I found myself outside the indoor water park. I saw the 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXj10G8fhTz
others ahead of me and I kept my distance. I was still soaking wet and I818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9QYql5bGL
started to shiver. It was now in the afternoon but the sun still didn't818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQOmZbBItv
seem to warm me up as I expected it to. It was hot, yes, but I still 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdcJIKzVkQI
felt cold because of my dripping clothes.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9JRVV3n0r8
We all found ourselves 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ93gB2LbY3r
back at the back gate of the water park. I found G-Dragon and the Toxins818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4byIBjUrKl
all settled in G-Dragon's car. Daesung, Seungri, Hyo-rin and Taeyang 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPAwRz9NWH
were waiting for me. 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPKY0aVc93
"Hey, Sam, you don't 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5r0fMS3z1m
mind if I ride along with you, Daesung and Seungri, do you?" Hyo-rin 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTE5M86yVuL
asked as she approached me to keep the others out of ear shot.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbt3EnLWZ3O
"I'll ride with Tae, he shouldn't be alone," I said, giving Hyo-rin a small smile. "Don't worry about it."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLr3SMXwvSv
Hyo-rin gave me a kind 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVXtZhDquif
smile and I looked on as she settled in with Daesung and Seungri in the 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvimYRGqiB
car. G-Dragon's car took off first, then Daesung's. I continued to watch818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMU9i48FPvf
on as the two cars left the premises and all I did was stand in the 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhWk7e5lkr
sun, trying to take in the warmth, but still shivering like a leaf.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnqUgRWKXVL
I had my eyes closed 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5umyLlWNgE
when I felt something warm on my shoulders. I opened my eyes and I found818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hJw9lpXvU
Taeyang wrap his warm coat around me.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZEsk9WnLP
"You're really shivering," said Taeyang. "Let's hope you don't get..."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTpcW0yyPp4
Before he could finish his sentence, I sneezed.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf5Ar13OdVp
"....a cold," said Taeyang, rolling his eyes at me. "Nice one, Sam. Now our managers will get pissed for sure."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7NFyFUY7v0
"Don't worry, it's just a small sneeze," I said as I sniffed. "I'll be fine by tomorrow."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwnNlL3Qn3E
"Let's hope so. Come on, we better get going."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOBMM2HChL
Taeyang led me to his 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1lhgPeGAKj
car and he helped me open the door to the passenger's seat. We were on 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1oQHqwOQ3X
the road in no time, and as I sat in the car, I still felt cold that 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8eb0OZrvRQ
Taeyang had to turn the heater on.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDWViHxNBSj
In about thirty minutes,818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLcI8CUHM7d
we were back in Seoul and back in the YG premises. I found the others 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zk87VN6aA
all waiting for us at the front entrance of the building. Taeyang and I 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE044Fvxj3j
got out of the car and walked up to them. I led them in, still barefoot 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfBWzGLf9x5
and surprisingly at the same time, Collins, Yang Hyun-suk and Lee 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGmCYwdDdKK
appeared out of the elevator.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7pkAD1BefY
"Where have you guys been?" Collins asked, as they approached us. "And why do you look so wet, Sam?"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmza8TMwYtV
"We went to Caribbean Bay," I answered.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzWNXVGj3Fo
Lee who stood behind 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlWi593EMwW
Collins gave me a funny startled look. She probably thought I was going 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdK9XTulDdR
to make up some kind of a lie to cover up for the others. But I had 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx8Lsz3C1ug
other things in mind.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGvRDKCohzU
"Caribbean Bay?" Yang Hyun-suk looked surprised. "We had things to sort out here and you went to have fun?"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSHK3qv7pg
Yang Hyun-suk sounded a 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrzXUx5sFD8
little harsh and the rest of us were quiet. I could feel the atmosphere 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJa4vkTtCx
behind me grow tense as no one said a word.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxM7qryt4Tc
"Well, is anyone going to say anything?" Yang Hyun-suk asked.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9LGHsOOQlb
"We didn't just go there to have fun," I said, with my head down. "If there's anyone to blame for all this, it's me."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYiDVDb9fIl
There was an awkward 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMTpAnay6J
silence as I felt all eyes on me. Their eyes felt like piercing needles,818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ctoIQOJTp
but I had to ignore the feeling and carry on.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBxfLRh8E6
"What do you mean?" Collins asked.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuFMWaY8w8b
"Well, I hear the press 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy3RRr7Y8VW
are here," said Sam. "And I bet they are here over the video of G-Dragon818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Z3tC4mmrZ
and I. I'll tell you everything from there."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjr0zoW4N2A
"That won't be 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDwjngrX3Ic
necessary," said Yang Hyun-suk. "We can do all of that tomorrow or some 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVWYK29devu
other day. You look all beat and I don't think it will be appropriate to818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkBvg1M590
go to the press looking all wet."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDAEFLIN3rA
I breathed out a sigh of818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKvz5KF6DZD
relief. Things were simply going the way I thought they would. I just 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2gh8uJVfh
hoped that what I was going to do next would work out too.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGVsWFIVyT6
"In the meantime, you go818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkqQCzdX3L1
to the hotel and get freshened up," said Collins. "We will talk later 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFz7gxYZl1t
on in the evening and you will tell us all about it."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpVObpPm9O
I nodded my head in 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7dNtKHI57R
agreement. Well, that was a relief. I seriously needed a change of 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuN6VYksqXr
clothes as I felt myself shiver vigorously.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg1rtPHXtWN
"Come, I'll drive you to the hotel," said Taeyang.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbg7FT8A2Ox
"Alright," I said 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGgoXlORpK
quietly, as I looked up at Lee. She seemed really frightened. The last 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVION1J0TKZ
thing she wanted was for all of us to get into trouble and it seems like818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0tPkBDUUd
I was only making things worse.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCILYEhTxLw
Before I turned to leave818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm5kPThZwGT
with the rest of the group, I gave Lee a wink, assuring her that 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvX3s9HCNQq
everything was going to be alright and that she should trust me on this 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrZiWfKl6Q
one.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeUY1qoN2Dh
***818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVWhiDj61Cs
I sat on the couch all 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG50f5zwuIw
wrapped up in a blanket, coughing and sniffing like crazy as I continued818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡESVtqnxNsD
staring at the TV. I was watching a K-drama series, "Boys over flowers"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUICx29LJjd
and I was really enjoying it, despite being down with a cold. 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhHNeJoE2hK
I had a box of paper 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcm3NEWec9D
tissues right beside me and a plastic containing the ones I had blown my818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5I6Niotcpr
nose on on my other side. Disgusting, I know, but hey, it was only a 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbMF5BVImyz
cold and there was nothing I could do about it.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyEpGgtVTMk
I continued watching the818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn8ELFexamP
series when the waiter came in to bring in my warm chicken soup and 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtRn7p6Cs6g
announced that Taeyang had come to see me.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXeplzGSSS5
"Hey, how are you doing?" Taeyang asked after the waiter gave me the soup and left while he came in.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6dFaCrAyg
"Never better," I said, 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0sCcGXE7k
sounding funny with a blocked nose. "Take a seat, please. Not too close 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPh2XulfXV
to me though, I don't want you to catch my cold."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobGyCZBNfQ
"I wasn't even going to try," Taeyang took a couch right next to mine, but far away from me as possible.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjuzzs0jorY
"So, watching k-drama, huh?" Taeyang asked as he looked at the flat screen TV on the wall.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtEcgnKb6xh
"Ya, I'm actually enjoying it," I said as I put in a spoonful of chicken soup in my mouth. Mmm, it was so tasty.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlR7jTHYcf
"And the others?" 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9DOh1TYr7l
When Taeyang meant the "others," I knew he meant The Toxins. I just rolled my eyes and continued staring at the TV.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr0wx3SLj6y
"As usual, they went for practise two hours ago," I answered, not sounding like I cared.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg2KcZe3gL5
"Are you still mad at them?" Taeyang asked.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQWHg52RGBk
I got the remote and paused the TV. I couldn't catch up with reading the subtitles and Taeyang's question just confused me.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8cuoCsanMT
"I don't know," I said, staring at my soup.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡheWM9v8UFb
"You don't know or you are?"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZi4AnNYrrM
I shrugged my shoulders. To be completely honest, I am still mad, but then again, I felt like I wasn't and that felt confusing.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGH4Gc6kyD
"I don't know, Tae," I 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgYtFWHVpup
answered. "I'm still upset with all of them, but another part of me is 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUWbltQ09Z
telling me that I won't stay that way for long and I should just try to 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLjEp1TOqJ
forget all that happened yesterday."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJt0BJnLYl8
"Ya, I understand. They 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgAIkN4q7q8
never listened to you and you had to carry on with their game. And in 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡza2BPqPZYP
the end, you take the blame because you knew how angry our managers were818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡci53hWHZsJ
going to get."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2adwkiVJS
I looked on at Taeyang 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZTBvxo6Ktr
as I sniffed. He was right. Yesterday was tough, and coming up with a 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPmFzNrEf9
plan to help the others get out of trouble was even tougher when you 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlNcLpGeLgF
know you weren't only dealing with Collins, but also with Yang Hyun-suk 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vNwCymC3R
who was as tough as nails.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQmBsYu4Hw
Last night, I took the 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIYa8lOpv6m
blame and told our two managers that I was the one who decided that we 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvTXhHvmud
should all go out and the others had nothing to do with it. I told them 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPw60wJDsr
that the others had insisted on working on the song, but I was the one 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5wh7lr28f
who objected and made everyone do whatever they wanted. 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5BMCKkeKxd
Apparently, the managers818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmiI2P7Hy45
weren't that mad at me at all. If I hadn't lied on their part, they 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnw7mz8arXD
would've been way mad at the others instead. They were glad I had bought818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4NN3QLM4A5
these guys back on time without creating much of a scene on social 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2bQbjmxSqR
media. Luckily, only a few people had taken pictures of us. Most people 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkoiUsKwRtj
on social media were even surprised that BigBang and The Toxins were at 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡynmJFgq5pW
Caribbean Bay. Well, at least my plan worked out. What I was truly 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPj5Mx5SlKN
avoiding, was grabbing too much attention from our fans, the paparazzi 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBUlzBDmqXz
and the reporters.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzxMdYfiU1h
After my confrontation 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdW6Qse9je
with our managers, I went straight to bed without talking to anyone and I818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTIbfMjhu3t
didn't have supper. One, I was totally beat from all that had happened,818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Qt2Z0QV05
and two, I just didn't feel like talking to anyone.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsERyLInzu0
"Huh, I guess am still upset," I said, as I took in another spoon of soup in my mouth. "Especially after what GD did to me."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTstyX9uPBA
"Ya, what happened was kind of dramatic," said Taeyang.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNITreXZo6v
"You saw that?" I looked surprised. "I thought you came later on when I fell into the pool."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡprUPvsMhIA
"No, Daesung and I arrived when you got to the top."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTS8EyVcTi
"Oh," I sniffed and coughed. "Ya, it was kind of dramatic."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPyEKa08mHo
"Have you tried talking to GD?"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjSAjSooba6
"To be honest, I haven't818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSuH8zzNmFS
even tried. I don't even want to see nor talk to him. I would probably 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGPM4cTvRB6
slap him in the face if I see him."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2OY1LJvQiL
"I don't doubt that."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpcWFH0AzE8
"And thank goodness my 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTw9iqdkqAX
new phone isn't coming in until late in the afternoon. I wouldn't like 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHf6Fhbusv0
anyone calling me trying to tell me how sorry they are. Right now, all I818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMRJsIA7pK
want to do is watch some TV."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspcOPzBZi0
I quickly drank my 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjTmzTke6u
chicken soup from the bowl. And my goodness, the cooks here really knew 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdGz5qu3fVT
how to make lovely soup. I would probably order for it again if I had 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19UIVmuHPF
to.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuXEsfYBcX6
"So, how are you and Hyo-rin?" I asked, after putting the bowl aside.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmjSOqIZKie
"Still not talking to each other," Taeyang amswered as he leaned back on the couch and stared at the ceiling.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9pKdDmLioj
"Looks like I'm not the only one not talking to people, aren't I?"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuWzqUyxV4y
"Nope."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXiwzjW2JH7
I stared at Taeyang as he continued to look at the ceiling as I thought of what to say or ask next.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLB9mFndxoa
"What really happened to you two yesterday?" I asked.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0qDdudTh2
Taeyang didn't say 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgS059NRLhr
anything at first. Then he breathed out heavily and said, "what happened818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKrQ1rJe47
to us happens to every other couple, Sam."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHLyCFgp5V
"I know you fought or 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9nCVKC7bz6
probably had an argument. I just want to know what it was all about. 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMhI1SR1bv
That's if you're willing to tell me. I won't push you if you don't."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡou6lmH1wb0
I noticed Taeyang smile 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxirMUhHEZp
while he continued to look upwards. It was probably over what I had 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGcUQ6cdru
said. I was not one who liked to push people over talking about their 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYHOjTNo91
problems. I wasn't like Zoey who always got away with such things.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfAxqtEregl
"Aren't you going to say anything?" I asked Taeyang who continued to smile.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpm0YcP470t
"I'm just wondering why some things you wish for never come to pass."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoN2zg50Dlk
I raised an eyebrow this time around. Was he diverting the question or was he talking in riddles now?818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9eSxEBM8nh
"I thought I was the only one who is sick today," I said rolling eyes.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZKu9yn7tQT
"Don't mind what I just said," said Taeyang, as he looked at me. "It's nothing."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKzea0t0XV
"Mmm, figured. If you don't want to say anything, it's fine by.."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAReBlZ1oxj
Before I could finish my818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWCt0pduUNp
sentence, I sneezed. Like, really loud. There was silence at first 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkRqFgMZvB
until Taeyang started laughing at me while I blew my nose with a tissue.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2nEkR5n5JJ
"It's not funny, Tae," I said furrowing my eyebrows and threw the used up tissue in the plastic.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXBOWQ0sMU
"You sound funny when you sneeze. That's why I laughed," said Taeyang, giving me his eye smile.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvkAUrZRTwY
"Well, it's good I made you laugh then. Just like me, you haven't been smiling at all since yesterday."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUS6K6trBU
"Looks like the two of us really have a lot in common when things don't go our way."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwEIkdPTRti
"Yep, cheers to that." 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPf7mZMR9EU
"So, have you thought of any lyrics for the song yet?" Taeyang asked.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkN31skE488
I slapped my face. I had completely forgot about the song since I was running up and down the whole of yesterday.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOiGPDogkR7
"I completely forgot," I said, as I sniffed. "Weren't you guys supposed to work on it today?"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ycQvyECwi
"We can't work on it without you," said Taeyang. "You and G-Dragon decided that the both of you would work on it together."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdKXpT86zE
"Don't mention his name because I feel like breaking something."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPq6SxHfija
"Wow, that sounds personal."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfXbCpeKF4
"Ya," I nodded my head. "It really is."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOP8h07aLCE
"Then how are the two of you going to work on the lyrics if you're still angry at him?"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshhmnot6X0
"I think I've a better 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLA2iGudLV6
idea. Let's all just work on the song together. I may be the songwriter 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRo2KVcn2f3
in my group, but I always give a chance for others to bring in their 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4PcaUfUpfA
lyrics. It's better that way."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGjgYl7Hkyu
"That's not a bad idea. Aren't you going to tell GD about it?"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrtEBrHOFm
"Uh, no. Until I'm no longer mad at him, you will have to act as my middle man."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFs0UZCtmvm
"Me? Your middle man?" Taeyang burst into a fit of laughter. "That's going to be classic."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiId6PHyNa9
"You should be honoured. Most people would die just to be my middle man."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2m0oelS8GL
"I wouldn't. FYI, I'm a pop star just like you and people would die just the same."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqYJXMlhSmX
"Haha, good point."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdzdbHkzh7l
Taeyang and I continued 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLnBagwc2pf
to talk for a good thirty minutes and it was so much fun. I was glad he 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnk4iKHANOv
came to see me because life tends to be boring sometimes when you're 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1pBErz42qz
alone. Apart from talking about the events that took place yesterday, we818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5KpfwicXR7
talked about other fun things concerning our personal lives. Mostly 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUVv2Jb2Ce
focusing on the funny things that goes on whenever we were with your 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVuC6l3kyJp
group members. I mostly talked about Zoey, since she always creates 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXEH3yfJGIU
drama in my life, while Taeyang talked about Seungri, who always got 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLdS6cd2BHE
into trouble since he was the "maknae" (막내) (youngest) in the group.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0kEgFeUYp
While the two of us were818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Y9AAW4qCw
laughing after Taeyang finished telling me a funny story about Seungri,818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx75hCwazYk
I received a phone call from the hotel land line. 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk031Day8V8
I quickly went over to 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0f0jscTVJK
the phone, trying to calm myself after laughing so much. Luckily, it was818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKLpJ0pba99
just the receptionist downstairs, informing me that Seungri and Daesung818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JpzyGttrF
had come to visit. I told the receptionist to tell them that they could818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0HInfOCIGC
come up and I put the receiver down.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCphW2TTZuH
"Speaking of the devil," I said as I passed Taeyang, going back to my seat, "he is here with Daesung."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Bl2RkMat4
"Seungri is here? Well, that's a surprise."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLw4sis0dm7
"I'm not," I said shrugging my shoulders. "He's obviously here to check up on me, since he calls me his panda."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZjHkjUTcP
"Trust me, you're one of his many pandas," said Taeyang, as he smiled.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRfoKUD7s9
"Shut up, Tae!" I threw a pillow at him and he blocked it as he raised his arm.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhsIPx8H5Qd
"Eww, that pillow 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwkwt0y3ZY
probably has your germs on it," said Taeyang, as he disgustingly looked 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJRNMmAS0pm
at the pillow I had thrown at him on the floor.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwhVxJVS1S
"You're welcome," I said with a devious smile on my face.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3hGFTuJ3ed
A few seconds later, we 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxovYSVg6D5
heard the sound of the elevator then Seungri and Daesung appeared into 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOfG61mx64
the lounge. Seungri was holding a huge stuffed panda and Daesung was 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81yXJh5i7a
holding a box of chocolates.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0aeJjRWXT
"Awww, is that for me?" I asked as I turned on the couch to face them.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqSwZE67Uy
"Ah, no, the panda is a 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Qexav7pSj
very good friend of mine and just came along to see the famous B.K who 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkoGECxQweD
is sick," said Seungri. Daesung and Taeyang burst out laughing at the 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQzpmORry9
same time.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVXPeCSUEx
"Very funny, Seungri," I said, as I frowned at him. "Give him to me, I want to hug him."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJDvsSGzKk
"And give him your cold? No ways," said Seungri, hugging and holding onto the panda.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPTeeWibOGI
"Do you really want me to come over there and fight for it?"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqV5vTOJJNg
"I would give the lady the panda if I were you, Seungri," said Taeyang. "You wouldn't want to see her nasty side."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHCSBWWHHPO
"Hey, I don't have a nasty side," I said, as I looked at Taeyang.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIDozuVJHC
"Everybody has one," said Taeyang, shrugging his shoulders.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorXiCYdZWf
"Never mind that," said Daesung, "just give her the panda, Seungri."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXK1DXHulV9
"Really? But he'll be scared without me," said Seungri, still holding onto the panda.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsrVZD7a5na
"For goodness sake, I 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbd8n66Uh3
know the panda is mine," I said. "And besides, we ladies are good with 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqishbzSHpT
handling cute and cuddly stuff. Mr Panda won't ever feel lonely or 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76VbAFW5r0
scared with me."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOzJChEYIuG
"Ya, I know he won't," said Seungri with a smile as he walked over to me and gave me the panda.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJbt2dEM76
I took the panda in my 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFsEYRKT0Uc
arms and I hugged and cuddled it as though I was a little girl who just 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xqsBfNaQo
got her doll for the first time. It was so soft and fuzzy that for a 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO8Bp51uaT5
moment, it felt like a warm pillow I could sleep on. The new smell of 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTntBV3Cexa
the panda triggered my nose though, and I sneezed so loud, yet again.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xJKdHp7NB
"My goodness, Mr Panda would need a doctor," said Seungri. "You're gonna get him sick."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCSdMXg9ByM
"He's officially mine now," I said as I sniffed. "We're going to be the best of besties."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq5Ivr1ANfx
"Whatever, just take good care of him for me, okay?"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡawlTPo673V
"I will," I said with a smile as I cuddled the panda in my arms.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1pthdNt4cm
"I got you some chocolates," said Daesung, as he handed over the box of chocolates to me. "Every girl's favourite treat."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVKrkRD3Ni6
"Aww, thanks Daesung," I818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIssDSfuum0
said as I smiled at him and I felt myself blush when I remembered what 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiCMlx6B03E
happened between him and I yesterday at the park. "That's so sweet of 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDRbh6wsYP
you. See, Seungri, you should be a little bit more like him."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyPWRWDgWD
"What did I do?" Seungri asked looking surprised. "I bought you a panda."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFB7aqFoEsL
"Never mind, come take a seat, please," I said. "It's good you two came to see me."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6oQY9T5DdN
"Are you feeling any better?" Daesung asked as he and Seungri sat on the other couch opposite Taeyang.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1b5wAeLcOt
"Well, I'm not really feeling that sick," I said, as I sniffed. "I'll be fine tomorrow, you'll see."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJUfhM2CzR
"I doubt that," Taeyang blurted out.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdQSjFXIuR
"Ah, put a sock in it, Tae!" I said angrily. "You really know how to make me feel bad."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYcBHNjTEu
"Ya, I do."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37zkAJgc9A
While the four of us 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2J4P286Lny
were chatting and Seungri kept on pulling funny faces at me every now 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQeCZeM5nsc
and then, just to make me laugh, The Toxins arrived. At first I didn't 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCuuxClxAxs
notice since I was laughing so much, until Daesung looked behind me and 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCdFqSNmrMk
said:818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Y8FTulNrc
"Hey, Zoey." 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1Vq21pcSa
I stopped laughing automatically and I turned to looked behind me. Zoey was standing in the passage with her training bag. 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcyMPCwOz5l
"Hey," Zoey replied. "I was wondering why there was laughter when we came in."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQvp8i9Lda
"We came to see how Sam was doing," said Taeyang.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcRmdYB9kw6
"It's good you came to 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡieqdDGvagR
keep her company while we were gone." Zoey turned to look at me, but I 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0zb3ab4oF
quickly turned away, putting myself back in my usual position on the 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9kdc7Orwak
couch.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnigTapSBKt
"Hey, what's with all the laughter?" came Mike's voice. "Oh, you guys are here, that's great!"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ64OfgukTaQ
"Who's here?" Christine asked, also joining the others. "Hey, guys!"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFH6CT60bm2
"Hey, how was practise?" Daesung asked.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPUgcsD1vSN
"Tiring as usual," I heard Daniel reply. 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1T1rX3qY3A
"We will just put our stuff away and join you in a second," said Zoey.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBv0isMNyud
"Ya, please do, it will be so much fun," said Seungri.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfNBTlOgH6
I tugged at my panda's 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWvvcShQbw
ear absentmindley as I felt Taeyang's eyes on me. I looked at him and it818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9aARkbFta
was obvious he could read my mind. I was still not in a mood to talking818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2CxBkwQfJ
to the other Toxins, and I so much as wanted as to leave the room.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8FncDmYD7h
The Toxins came back to 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrc2GvY9657
the lounge area. Zoey sat next to me and I moved away from her as I held818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjB99IcxvSV
my panda like it was the only thing that ever mattered to me. Christine818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPus3pfoYEw
went to join Seungri and Daesung, while Mike and Daniel joined Taeyang.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxBd6e7Ug3j
For a moment, no one 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjfBybcaW9
said a word to each other. There was silence. As for me, I kept on 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJSgePphrq
tugging at the panda's ear still not looking at Zoey.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzxGXcprM0
"Oh, Sam, you've a panda," said Daniel, breaking the silence.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHqYSLn24P
"Ah huh," I replied dully. 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhaMUWqN1ZB
"I got it for her," said Seungri, with a smile.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCiqpS6nklm
"Aww, it's so cute," said Christine. "You should get me one just like that someday."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLw27H2xWHp
I stared up at the 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK61MQL3P1J
ceiling and then at the panda. I got the box of chocolates that were 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPTqYgBVHj8
next to me, opened it and put a piece of chocolate in my mouth.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsQkBBNxzw
"And she also has chocolates too," said Zoey. "I also want some."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69iy2fVyr6
When Zoey tried to reach818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkwp1aPAHfk
out for chocolates, I lifted the box and took it to my other side to 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsjU2rtdN0t
prevent her from getting any. I looked at her as I furrowed my eyebrows.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHWJ4fSQ1k9
"Sorry, I should have asked," said Zoey.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKs2bcuRlB
"Ya, you should have!" I snapped at her.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1EEu9WmJFA
Zoey looked hurt with 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxfy5YL8haq
the way I responded to her, but at the moment, it didn't even matter. I 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJ0l72pAU4
turned to face the other way sucking at the chocolate in my mouth.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3n8rvmSgma
"Are you still mad at us?" Zoey asked.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkn7Eckua9l
I didn't answer as I put818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbkIhd6e9L
another piece of chocolate in mouth. My silence was an obvious answer. I818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDeZuJRM5Bq
was still mad, especially at Zoey.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvqm6pUs4p
"I know it's a little 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXlg0geU1v
late to say this," started Zoey. "But we're really sorry for what 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM73nl4DbeH
happened yesterday. Yes, we didn't listen to you as always and we're 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpiIZGZvJL4
sorry for that too. You even took the blame for us. And I know it 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeIEfGT5NXs
doesn't look like we appreciate what you do for us, but we really do. 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUygT6Ss8n
You've saved our necks a number of times before from Collins, but this 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIwqK1Zumw
time you had to deal with Yang Hyun-suk too."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb7XVZXrmni
I stared at the ceiling as I sucked at the chocolate in my mouth as though I wasn't listening.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjXRHOPv1F
"I don't like it when 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoT90rT89aJ
you're not talking to me," Zoey continued. "And last night when you 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3SIUJfMqnP
didn't say a word, I knew you were going to give us the silent 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡclEvF2BnhT
treatment. You know you're my best friend and my only source of 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwuGoFaBhP7
happiness everyday. You know I'm not myself without you. I'm really 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxscbtOrNp
sorry, Sam."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJPjjUmBVJ
"We're all sorry, Sam," said Daniel. "I know you're hurt real bad because of our silly actions yesterday."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7FQuKhsuQ
"I'm sorry too," said 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKtOwFkuoCh
Mike. "I should have acted like the responsible one, but we all know 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2v4S7DJ2pu
that's not the case. You really saved us yesterday and all we want is 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTiy5kpuoAc
for you to talk to us again."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtTgOCIkmD
"I'm also sorry, Sam," 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPhKSDynIaH
said Christine. "We might say 'we won't do it again,' but we keep on 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2rv2CyDYm
doing the same thing. We can't do anything without you. You're our 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQE697szUG
leader."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hslSNM81P
I still didn't say a 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMh0q5laTNq
word to them as I continued to stare upwards. I knew it would come to 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq98opVYOty
this, them saying that they were sorry. My hatred for them wasn't going 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDsGkBFHppZ
to last forever and I knew that very well. They were family and I loved 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5a67CMYggo
them despite the awful things they put me through.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7hpK72PFP
"Aren't you going to say something, Sam?" Taeyang asked. 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5IBzJYvmgM
"And what should I say?" I asked. "They know completely well that I can't stay mad at them forever, so...."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNqpyH0ZssF
"Wait, you're not mad any more?" Zoey asked, with a little hint of excitement in her voice.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRTrWdKONZN
I sighed deeply and I turned to face Zoey. And I each gave the other Toxins a look as well.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6aRlDGDzb
"I'm mad and pretty much818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hD28RQQoq
angry with all of you," I said. "But it's obvious I can never stay mad 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNuFvNuQ57i
at you forever. So, yes, I forgive you."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcjYR01rMhO
"Seriously, you mean it?" Daniel asked.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDC7NqrTtyJ
I sniffed and said, "ya, I mean it."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡayEygnxVL2
"Aww, I love you, Sam!" Zoey exclaimed as she tried to come close to hug me.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjof5lbdtU
"Whoa! Back up!" I said 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasQWU1ZShW
with my hands raised to stop her from getting any closer to me. "I've a 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAsN3ynnnzk
cold. Just because I forgive you, doesn't mean you can hug me."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrz0Hirctk1
"Ah, you! Always acting 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXwWabEEtD
like you don't want a hug. Come here!" Zoey wrapped her arms around me 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQSiJkVpzy
and hugged me. "Your cold isn't that contagious and I don't care if I 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Wb4HXU5iM
catch it anyway."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtawbt2IRU1
Christine, Daniel and 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuFawzYakNg
Mike also came over and we were all hugging each other on the couch. 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4726vZIpb
Even the panda got caught up in the hug. It was kind of nice and I 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTf6wNgSZLn
smiled. I completely wasn't mad at them any more, that's for certain.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjXGgCvebh8
"Aww, let me take a pic of this beautiful moment," said Deasung as he pulled out his phone and took a photo.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgaFeP2GJcS
"I'm glad you guys finally resolved things ," said Taeyang.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5roeRuYGQo
"Ya, I'm glad we did," I said, as I felt my nose twitch. "Can you guys please stop hugging me, I'm about to...."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLBINiTMThz
I sneezed and the other Toxins quickly withdrew their arms around me and looked on as though I was contagious.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5V32Qcuw20
"Excuse me," I said as I got a tissue and blew my nose. "I just can't help myself."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHFMWZ055d
"Don't worry, you won't 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR04VR4t2Fq
help yourself laughing once you see this pic," said Daesung, as he 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbU6N2mmniY
looked at his phone with a smile on his face.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTzC8OEYDy5
"Please don't tell me you captured me sneezing," I rolled my eyes when I obviously knew the answer.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQWIy5BTWy
"Ya, he did," said Seungri, with a smirk on his face.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzeR5y5GZhF
"Never mind. It's almost lunch time and I'm starving," I said. "What can we order for lunch?"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡycCsL4wLA8
"I'm glad you asked," said Zoey. "You just sit back and relax, my hungry kitty. We already have lunch covered."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzi35hz6n2Z
"What do you mean?" I asked, looking at Zoey with an eyebrow raised.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyY329qclP
"We thought of having a special lunch just for you since you were so mad at us," said Daniel. 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsCBptEQqgl
"Well, that's interesting," said Taeyang. "Weren't you going to invite us as well?"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9XCwpNOdcO
"Well, ya, but surprisingly you brought yourselves here," said Zoey. "We were about to call you as soon as we arrived."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLS4y4dqlSv
"We already called the others so, no need," said Mike.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Kt33oPdMs
At that moment, I had 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhcdShWa3Ph
put in another piece of chocolate in my mouth and I almost choked on it.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZKVNTIKtNp
Mike who was the closet to me patted my back.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHNT23OJHt
"Hey, are you okay?" he asked.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6fUf8DFAmn
"I'm fine, I guess," I said, as I held my throat.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWr3REtIuHW
"This is what happens when you don't share chocolates," said Zoey. "Here, I'll help you."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5YLpElshX
Zoey got the box of 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJC8NjVbJB
chocolates and Christine went to sit next to Zoey to eat them while I 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdcc9Bs7iu6
continued rubbing my throat, deep in thought.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLKd5CENwyw
"Can you excuse me for a second?" I asked as I got up from the couch with my panda and left the room.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPxQdKLDz2
I was in the passage as I818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FJOdjPs4A
leaned on the wall, close to the door of the room Zoey and I were 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPK7pz78GfV
sleeping in. I held the panda in my arms and hugged it tightly. I sighed818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡizweUDI3n4
in what felt like sadness.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryqysTdGTa
"You aren't okay, again, aren't you?" came Taeyang's voice behind me.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbuzwtwFTQD
I sniffed and without facing him said, "you already know. I don't have to say anything."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsAaqmxrMwn
I heard his footsteps 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLYcmJDldd
and I knew he was coming closer. He also leaned his back against the 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOTLtjL2Sl
wall as he stood right next to me and I heard him sigh.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1E0hQBiqwm
"Are you really going to stay mad at GD for long?" he asked.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRcX8KgFNIE
"And are you going to do the same with Hyo-rin?" I also asked.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpzbRdMYdZh
"Are we really do this right now?"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa0x5ujiEHr
"Do you want us to continue making each other feel bad about yourselves?" 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKAce6B6qi
Taeyang chuckled silently and I smiled, still not looking at him.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7lUITbumYM
"This isn't working, is it?" Taeyang asked.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5KETzJLESU
"Nope." 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVml0Es6hr
I heard Taeyang take in another deep breath and said, "I really admire you, Sam."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRcUWo3hWeA
My eyes almost felt like818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOTCrumkzIw
they would pop out of their sockets. He admired me? Like how? Admiring 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zge9pyRSp
meant a lot of things. And right now I felt really confused.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdNj3lsirwF
I turned to look at him 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSYSYF5nSQ
and I found him staring at me. He gave me a simple smile and I didn't 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUKu722cUh0
know where to begin to ask what he truly meant.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGJwe2gnlP
"I....uh, what do you, uh.... mean when you said you admired me?" I asked as I stammered.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctv44oAhXb
"That you're surrounded 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRAF8anFc5f
by such amazing people in your life that you're even able to forgive 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrXF98b756Y
them despite you getting hurt by them," he answered. "I admire that 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySj34jTp1u
you've such a good heart. You don't seem to hold grudges for long."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMI60epCTCP
"A good heart? Really? I don't think so. If it's anyone with a good heart it's you, Tae, not me." 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmiNo1v2MYX
"Then if you can see that in me, I can also see that in you."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2wi9ynKQA
I sighed and I gave Taeyang a stern eye. "So what's your point?"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbgU6KJUEoM
"That you also shouldn't stay mad at GD."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj6tFRIkkiD
"Tae, you don't know how I felt yesterday when he betrayed me and left me dangling on the cliff for my life."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9wsDk0BfFD
Taeyang raised an eyebrow at me. "You felt betrayed?"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8yS9RjeQZM
"Well, ya." I shrugged my shoulders. "What GD did to me wasn't.....It was so not....."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡial6TRdZcl
Apparently, I couldn't 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56oerAoAjd
seem to find the right words. I didn't even realise how I felt when I 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16b6wTjEic
talked about this to Taeyang. On one hand I was confused and on the 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy3528rSoul
other, I was still mad I could break something. I was even squeezing my 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3zbma6fhI
panda tightly. If it were a live animal, I would have choked it to 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjXvLyqxa0
death.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOoeMDkMwmo
Taeyang still looked at me with his eyebrow raised and I didn't like that he wasn't saying anything.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6XugDbFOge
"Aren't you going to say anything, Tae?" I asked, sounding frustrated. "Don't look at me like that."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Ewbu3ysqk
Taeyang folded his arms 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5KmBfbE4Ys
and said, "if you really want me to say something, I'll say what I think818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxbpN3j0yAp
and what I'm seeing right now. You aren't mad at GD. You're just hurt."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0GDphMy5aa
"Hurt? I don't get it." I felt even more confused.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjn7BdbPG6Y
"You're may think you're818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHZ1I8tC0r
upset and angry, when actually you're hurt. You just said you felt 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Ezrck8lz8
betrayed with what GD did to you. Feeling betrayed isn't getting angry, 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJaC4ClRMi6
but feeling hurt."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDruTjb4x9
I slowly took in what Taeyang said and I couldn't help but feel he was right on this one.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KZ51KtHZB
"But I wouldn't feel 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmgoKyUsDD
hurt or betrayed if I...." I was soon hit with the most shocking 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiR0fbbZ6qC
revelation of my life and I stopped myself in mid sentence as I looked 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIc18Hq60lC
at Taeyang.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7pLCe13dfp
Taeyang gave me that 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDH1VEIZGCr
look that he already knew what I was about to say. And he probably had 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KTttmzrXJ
figured it out a whole lot sooner than I did. I shook my head at him, 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkhKfZ9Efsc
while in return, he nodded.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡROgCFcAC0p
"No, freaking way," I said, trying not to raise my voice. 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3pDPThuCd
"Ya," said Taeyang. "Believe it or not, it seems like you like him."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVMb38HHV3T
I didn't say a word as I818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKWlirbHTk
went back to leaning my back against the wall. I buried my chin into my818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhkL4SLkd2
panda's soft head not really believing what just happened. The thought 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41CdsG5MWH
of liking GD clouded my mind. Not only that. What happened between 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiOBy6ejVjs
Daesung and I at the park really made things complicated.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZVs2JoACi
"I guess you're right," I muttered to Taeyang. "But I can't tell for sure if I really like him or not."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrNDh9P6Xr
"Maybe all you need is a little time to figure it out," said Taeyang. "Right now, you're just confused."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDCF01qXLL
"I'm 'really' confused. You've no idea."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMRp1UsbMgP
"Did something else happen that you aren't telling me?"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3sYPmNdfvS
If there was ever a way I818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW67gQgiqRM
would personally give Taeyang an award for, was for mind reading. It's 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKD1PKqLu4
like he knew what was going on inside my head. I wondered if I should 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjapU3xbwBK
tell him about Daesung too, but I was saved my the bell.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuqaFMQKxUp
"Hey, you two, let's go, lunch is ready downstairs," said Zoey appearing in the passage. 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZSW9DgpgG
"Okay, let me put my panda away," I said as I quickly disappeared into the room and I left it on my bed. 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWd1sfAOZJz
When I came out, I still found Taeyang where I had left him and the two of us went to join the others entering the elevator.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKmj3hcDbqj
"You two are really close today. Are you up to something?" Zoey asked Taeyang and I as we got into the elevator.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNpQ2Q5Scbq
"No, why do you ask?" I asked.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY882DLKrHu
"Well, I'm just asking,"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3FRiN5sVB
said Zoey, as she playfully scratched the back of her head. "Who knows,818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATHekjaC0v
Taeyang might steal you away from me and become your new best friend."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTVDda3btro
"Sounds like you're jealous," said Seungri, with a mocking smile on his face.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfU7G87qVh
"No, I'm not!" Zoey snapped.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRYWrCb2EF
"Hilarious," muttered Taeyang, as he smiled.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEb4VDs6Sti
"If I knew that's what you were thinking about, I wouldn't have asked," I said, as I rolled my eyes.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2qME3HB2Q
I pressed the button 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡveO8eFXWEH
leading us to the ground floor and the doors to the elevator closed 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNCIJ5QX9f
before us. In a matter of seconds, we found ourselves on the ground 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdNXAi7bUQV
floor and we all walked out of the elevator.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXR4hkA6wWd
We went to the main 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzIu2Lze0a
hotel dinning room and a waiter lead us to the table reserved for us for818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0HjSbUvrbO
lunch. It was a huge round table in the VIP section. There were ten 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmht8e3YHlF
seats around the table, obviously for all BigBang and Toxins members.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGTft2md9JS
"Why didn't you invite, our managers and Lee?" I asked Zoey as we approached the table.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe04Ub0gDl6
"Are you serious? Those guys are busy and you wanted me to invite them?" Zoey asked. 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn1MtyMWheB
"To be honest, we just 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOtbJQOaQg1
wanted to avoid them asking us questions about yesterday," said Daniel. 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡleoj50L2Tq
"We wanted it to be strictly Toxins and BigBang."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwfoSUq7hqf
"Was that so hard to say?" I asked Zoey upon Daniel's answer.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjX0uzNJxs5
"Maybe. Let's forget about it and sit, shall we?" Zoey suggested and she walked ahead of us, reaching the table first.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxRTfdMt2p
We all got to the table and before I could pull out my chair, Taeyang pulled the chair out for me and I glady sat.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPTsfMq3Uc
"Thanks, Tae," I said as I smiled up at him.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbeVFJ40uao
"You're welcome," said Taeyang as he sat next to me and Daesung sat on my other side.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeyibtYVnE6
"Okay, weird, you two are getting real close," said Zoey as she sat across the table looking directly at Taeyang and me.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60pEnx6kPf
"Nah, I don't think so,"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMWu9aSLsd
said Christine. "Taeyang is just so sweet. I wish I was the sick one so818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVaY8BB6hhL
he would be treating me like that."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySFYC56Hak
"Mmm, I don't think so,"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGk55GtCPu
said Zoey, shaking her head. "Did something happen between the two of 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡam4iknpnZa
you yesterday that I'm not aware of?"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjtqylRz02y
"My goodness," I rolled my eyes and sniffed. "Stop making a drama out of everything, Zoey."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjAZc40fJ7k
"I'm not," said Zoey, shrugging her shoulders.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5q3gQGnz2
"Then, stop trying to make one."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7M4yTg7QB0
"Before you two decide to tear each other apart," said Seungri. "Can we please have our food now? I'm starving."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsLhwLgnfp5
"Ya, me too," said Mike.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQiOJQwW4kt
"Wait, we've to wait for TOP and GD to get here first," said Zoey.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI8SidSHafV
"Seriously?" Daniel asked. "Do we really have to wait?"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMMkK1sK5q
"We can't really be so sure how long they're going to take to get here," said Daesung.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5VCnIYzokK
"They will be here any moment now," said Zoey as she stared at her fancy white wrist watch. "Trust me."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAk2hifPfh
"Really? Can we just get on with it?" Mike asked.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ydYdMlHqz
"We haven't even passed a minute, and you're complaining already?" Daesung asked almost in a fit of laughter.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9OZhXLMFNa
"Ah, here they come," said Zoey as she looked behind me. "Told you they will be here."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVXqC19JBHN
I didn't even dare try 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXt4oXKltu
to look behind me as I twirled a strand of my hair with my fingers as I 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJdm6F7HJm
coughed. Zoey got up from her seat and ran over to G-Dragon and TOP.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPeIiyqIjs
"I'm so glad you're here," said Zoey. 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1QwhjQ3Mde
"I'm glad you invited us," came TOP's voice. "How is our patient doing?"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCEAql4IvtN
"Why don't you see for yourself?" Zoey suggested.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDV5x0OKMTU
I heard footsteps coming818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFFzbvqhPN
towards the table and I couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9zpBdI8U8m
as I moved in my seat. Taeyang must have noticed because he turned to 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2PkjEdNk8M
look at me.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8y4QwNM9Nu
"Are you okay?" he whispered.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG4A9gB8usn
"I'm trying to," I whispered back.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡth98WGOLf5
I soon felt strong hands818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwNazYR4fqa
grip my shoulders and I was startled. For a moment, I thought it was GD818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJxPclaid3N
until I took a whiff of TOP's musky cologne.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLs1Y374O7m
"Hi, Sam," said TOP, as he bent over to give me a peck on the cheek. "How are you doing?"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9FbmJYVSBZ
"I'm a whole lot better,818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgfesuXBuu
thanks," I replied, as I felt myself blush and the spot where TOP 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvTeLm336gJ
pecked me burn up. "It's nothing serious." I sniffed.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTQ0JqaT6k
"Glad to hear that."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2Za4dg53G
When TOP let go of my shoulders and walked away to take his seat next to Mike, I heard G-Dragon's voice behind me.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsm1l1qMUWK
"I'm glad you're okay, Sam. I thought of the worst when you got sick."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOA9I2FQjJ
I was planning not to 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVw7LA5d7J
turn and look at G-Dragon, but I did anyway. When I looked at him, he 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJT22TKkwn
was staring at me with those captivating eyes of his. I could tell that 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTpVuScrfPk
he was sorry for what he did to me yesterday. I was wondering whether to818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKg6B7VR6X7
jump at him and tear him apart, or just let the problem go like water 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmEntz2zm1
under the bridge.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZeFZuShOw9
I smiled, at least that was an effort, and said, "I'm fine, GD, my cold isn't serious neither is it contagious."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2NIhOvhOOk
"Wait, you're not mad at me anymore?" he asked.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYin4eDbsw
I tried not to frown. "Let's not talk about that. I'm starved."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2dU5GxTGYg
"Okay, then," said Zoey, as she wrapped her arm around G-Dragon's elbow. "Let's sit and have lunch."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLgQJlwcgMX
Zoey and G-Dragon sat down next to each other as they were conversating about something.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZkEeJMyrt
"You know what? At least I tried not to sound mad at him," I said to Taeyang.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGjhnpXUiNC
"Will you try to keep that up for long?" Taeyang asked.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFup83PzU4r
"If I can manage to have lunch without any mishaps, then I know things will be okay."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKT7lCWW4hV
The waiters soon came 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFciZOxopiA
and laid our lunch on the table. We first had lovely soup for a starter.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9gATAJrgck
And since Zoey mentioned earlier that it was a special lunch 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbyrmhie9pr
specifically for me, we were all served my favourite dish as the main 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5YLtR4N4q
meal, Italian chicken terazzini.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSKgDgi2AbL
For a moment, I felt 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJtqT7LUEV
more at home than ever before. A feeling I hadn't felt in a long time. 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1kpaJLtGrg
Zoey really knew how to make me feel more pleased with her in order for 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtsPTw04z5K
me to forget that I was ever mad.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4jrBrdKjj7
"Mmm, this is so 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNt6isNm1Vd
delicious," said Mike, a few minutes in during the meal. "Now I see why 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3EMoBz8Nsi
you like this dish, Sam. It's so awesome."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ReemHw21C
"I agree," said Seungri. "And the chefs here really know how to make a good meal."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2d8hJPjPiB
"We wouldn't have had this if it wasn't for Zoey," I said, as I looked at her. "Thanks, by the way."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCKI1CVRfx
"Anything for you, Sam,"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAfR6W1kji
said Zoey with a huge grin on her face. "But to be honest, this whole 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1EPjoKoCkr
lunch thing, wasn't really my idea."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvwjatp6Rtf
"Oh? Then whose was it then?" Daesung asked.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL6jWjT7Rgw
"Da, GD. Who else?" Zoey replied as she playfully nudged G-Dragon on his arm with her elbow.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXf2VnUbrsy
I had just taken in some818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0nwoHCJCSW
food into my mouth and I almost choked on it, but I tried not to make 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNu1n04cFsV
it look obvious. I slowly put my spoon and fork on the plate as I slowly818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhy9p7w0n2a
tried to chew my food, but at the same time, processing what Zoey had 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFu9ZLOMS9S
just said.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9er3kSkFCQ
"This was all G-Dragon's idea?" I asked.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvX38CXwviU
"Well, ya," Christine 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibrAzvgcN3
replied. "You were so mad that you weren't talking to us, when we met 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs79SfnwKTB
G-Dragon at YG this morning, he suggested the idea of throwing you a 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡynPdQwxdJK
special lunch to lighten your mood."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfZrPDcigA
At that moment, I didn't know if all this lightened my mood or just darkened it even more.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJh128kRMpw
"Thanks for the lunch, 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZyoK4ByRN
GD," I said with a smile, which felt rather painful on my face. "It's so818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUBvBQKeOA
sweet of you to have come up with this."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCBbOdrsWTW
"You're welcome," said G-Dragon as he winked at me.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡStRxkboOJ2
I almost felt like 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlZvn5k6QX
jumping at him from my seat to poke his eyes out with a fork, but I was 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEph58sMSOK
surprised with myself when I didn't move a muscle and continued to stare818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPwAAtRxI8
at him with a fake smile on my face. Where was all this anger coming 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5X4xvHA7SN
from? And why was it that with every minute that passed, my anger kept 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkZWnBXQjP
turning into rage?818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8VytntsECS
Oh, goodness. I needed 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡndRiyysl9p
help, that's for sure. I wasn't supposed to be mad at G-Dragon up to 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoULQDhstIv
this point. But why did I still feel angry and hurt? 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFuAw5vyF3
I tried to push aside 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRNhCtdLZc
the questions and my boiling anger as I stared at my food and continued 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzz1Jg3DNTK
to eat. When we were all done with our main meal, we were served 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMwu0CSeE0m
dessert. Again, surprise, surprise, it was my favourite dessert, frozen 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG26jPtE6mM
chocolate moussé.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJD1mddFkna
"Yum, yum, yum," I said,818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU3iXsSGSfx
with a bright smile on my face as the waiter laid down a dessert bowl 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8LpDFeRXbk
filled with chocolate moussé in front of me.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpe1oLVybR
"This is the most excited I've seen you today, Sam," said Taeyang.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdBDHieLId
"It's because chocolate moussé is her favourite dessert," said Daniel. "Give her that and she would be your best friend."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdaX7bLJeU7
"I'll keep that in mind," said TOP.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsGn7bY1yAM
I didn't wait for 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYikUvYSNu
everyone else to get their own share of dessert. As soon as I got mine, I818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdfBksGicYb
got a dessert spoon and started to eat the cold dessert. Mmmm, I closed818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOlsCVrizdS
my eyes as I took it in my mouth and for once, I felt like I was in 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhN1xDFVMy
heaven.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTIPxDD3vfy
"This is so good," I said, with my eyes closed as I savoured the chocolate in my mouth.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOlLUmb2R8e
"Be careful though," said G-Dragon. "You're not supposed to be eating cold stuff when you've a cold and a cough."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5IKuMlQe7z
"I don't care," I said 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhTKfvuT8V
as I opened my eyes and smiled at G-Dragon. "I would end up with a bad 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37XtvfFTGt
sore throat and I still wouldn't mind."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJANic7xx9Q
G-Dragon smiled back at 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfzlLunfB8
me and I realised that I wasn't mad at him anymore. It looked like I 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF13EMBGP1i
really couldn't stay mad at him. And I was glad that all the hate faded 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYn7xCv9p1i
away.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ENEqJ08WQ
After dessert, we all 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCtsgFexRSk
just sat there and started to chat. For once, it felt really good to be 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcnZyiHBO5X
on speaking terms with everyone again. We were soon talking about what 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7iCiScvS9j
happened yesterday. After going through all that and talking about it, 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsaPVgyhARp
it all seemed rather funny and we all laughed about it. Although, the 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM7qvDDkNM8
part where G-Dragon had made me dive into the pool seemed to hurt a 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVKPy032jf
little, I knew I would grow out of it someday.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOje7eQg6E
"Hey, may I ask?" Seungri asked. "How did Lee manage to keep our managers at YG for so long?"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqixsBDZkMi
"Not sure, I'll make sure to ask her later on," I said.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDIp1AYLg1e
"Yesterday, was just hilarious," said Zoey, wiping away a fake tear after laughing. "We should try that again some time."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJcwGylKwLv
"But this time, not at the water park," I said.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaCGf7AP0k2
"Then where?" Daesung asked. "The water park was so much fun."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkklUapFjw
"I suggest we try to figure that out later," I said. "We have stuff to do."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjvgG7oDj0n
"What stuff?" TOP asked.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqyHi8OL2JP
"The song. Don't tell me you all forgot?"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwZkOUCTcL
"Oh, the song!" Mike slapped his forehead. "I myself forgot about that."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo9yyzVOqxE
"I thought both you and G-Dragon were going to work on it," said Christine.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKFkgNopTjp
"Ya, but I have a better idea," I said.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWP9261t32l
I felt Taeyang look at me and I turned to look at him.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpkkCeR9zBw
"Are you really going through with that?" Taeyang asked, as he whispered.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAbz8M9cfb
"I don't think that's a big deal, is it?" I whispered back. "I think it's a good idea."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5jawtBHqkB
"Wait, what's going on?"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ZskKfPVfS
G-Dragon asked, as he noticed Taeyang and I whispering to each other. 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrX5ayKaEyo
"And what idea have you come up with for the song?"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZyCYKW0Ju4
"I thought we should all818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtv2LtrFecn
work on the lyrics together. I feel it will be a lot better if we all 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7czuJ32aJH
bring out our ideas and put them as lyrics."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Ei4mtXhgM
"But why do we have to put our heads together if there is you and G-Dragon who are better at song writing?" TOP asked.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVazGMAtFos
"I don't know, I feel we818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8PxoePrG5Y
have to put our all in the song by coming up with lyrics from everyone.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGdWvr7gFq
It might sound a little strange, but we all have to help each other out818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCfeJD8lTU0
on this. If there is anyone objecting to it, you're free to do so."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy5C3VWlcG8
"I don't get it though,"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz98JXmDW5K
said G-Dragon, as he leaned back on his chair and stared at me. "What 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGS43aynO3e
made you come up with this idea when we already agreed on who will write818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeANaLChTrq
the lyrics?"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXl9Dzrn9QS
"I don't know, it kind of felt right, I think," I said.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTGu7CGBgiV
"You think?" G-Dragon now raised his eyebrow at me. "Is there something you aren't telling us?"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAHT4ZV1dx
This time, I also raised818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGP6x3qXjoF
an eyebrow. I had told Taeyang about my idea earlier not because I was 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxNbmXru3r
trying to avoid G-Dragon but for everyone else's benefit.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4DI3okWZL
"What makes you think I have other intentions?" I asked.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3WMPBymyND
"Maybe you might still be mad at G-Dragon," Zoey blurted out.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNL4T6usKUz
I sighed. Great! These were the times you wished Zoey never had such a big mouth.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZaiJOaz3i
"Is that true? Are you still mad at me?" G-Dragon asked.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjBWzEijd7
"No, not any more," I answered. "At first I was, but now I'm over with what happened yesterday."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTuWTIGtdI5
"Or are you still mad that you don't want to work on the lyrics with me?"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn22sscmeE1
By the way G-Dragon 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqq4ZKBOJoO
spoke, I could tell he was hurting. But it was pretty hard to try to 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94kZcAa2eg
convince him that yes, I was mad at first and I wanted to avoid him. And818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljWt5zDW45
no, since I'm no longer mad at him any more and that the idea of all of818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBuQmXugBHZ
us working on the lyrics for the song seemed like a good idea.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQuFJt7zdAP
"I just told you, I'm not mad anymore."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPp7sVWMrGk
"Why is it that I don't believe you?"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHTXUYYItPH
"Maybe, it's because you're objecting to my idea and you just want to make up what would be a valid reason for it."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy1ZB9XkrfK
"Mmm, looking at it through Sam's point of view, I see nothing wrong if all of us work on the song," said Daniel.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiuNvbGJK39
"Then why come up with this in the first place?" Zoey asked. 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuia2FDqEiF
"I already told you, I just think it's a good idea," I repeated.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7opuUb71h
"Well, I'm not up for it," said G-Dragon folding his arms. "I object."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy1uiRPhppP
"Well, you should have said that instead of blaming me for coming up with this as an excuse."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUgHZXEb3s
"I think you are, and you're not telling us."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSt5LejC1QC
"Are we going to go through this again? You just objected."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaoY8LpJgVn
"I could go through this over and over again if I had to until you tell us the truth."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAoE4QfqDpz
"What truth?" I asked.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4LrfdlQefD
"Okay, guys this is getting a little out of hand," said Taeyang. "Don't forget, we aren't the only ones here."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYcRWjdcQa
Taeyang was right. I was818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ36apXgNyK
so caught up in the argument with G-Dragon, I forgot that we were in 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv3613bvqT7
the hotel dining room. I looked around us and a few heads from other 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCdi88ZPJBZ
tables turned to ours. It seemed like our argument caught some people's 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtsV0mqsn4y
attention.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lv6cT3Hew
"Tae's right," I said. "We shouldn't be arguing, much less here."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡejR7u4OXUA
"Then let's conclude on this once and for all then," said Deasung. "Those who favour Sam's idea, raise your hand."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyuWoILOTu6
Taeyang, Daesung, Daniel818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpD72qoZ52h
and Mike, raised their hands. That meant Zoey, TOP, Seungri and 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bpbfFYyrW
Christine were on G-Dragon's side. What a bummer!818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiaW9pEVrku
"Whoops, looks like it's a tie," said Zoey playfully with a smirk.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WTMtZrMHt
"It's not funny, Zoey," I said shaking my head.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9SQN3fFk4D
"Well, this just got serious," said Seungri, scratching his head.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8Z85oX4NN
"It's a tie, so I suggest we..." I was then interrupted by G-Dragon.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWKJSQ2dUM
"No, this time you aren't going to say or suggest anything," said G-Dragon.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PqyoHMVwj
"But I....." 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1RnKk696I1
"Sam, sshh," said Zoey, 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6sWHnUFoCZ
pressing her index finger to her lips, telling me to keep quiet. "You've818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1pfj8kp7pS
talked way too much, don't you think?"818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡESSbfszdqN
That felt like a slap in818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡToaWCIZp5B
the face and I felt my face burn up in embarrassment. It looked like 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkK7BQUdBSR
the tables had turned on me today. At first I was mad at G-Dragon and 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZuuOGKkCzT
the other Toxins, but now, I was the one pissing everyone off. What 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkSNDAwKVS
happened to me being the leader? I know G-Dragon was older, but what 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlTmEZ8VbH
about what I thought was best for the whole group?818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpEBks24eVf
"I suggest we think about it and when we meet tomorrow, we vote over it again," said G-Dragon.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVp2dun8MQ
"That's fine with me," said Mike.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnia6QBujAp
Everyone else agreed, 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3P1Olhj8Vq
except me since I was told not to say a word. I personally also thought 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfeFsOiUuCO
it was a good idea to try and think things through. But what if it 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrJdzDM6EY
didn't work out tomorrow? What would we do then? I had a terrible 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmDdy6OftqA
feeling that things weren't going to go as planned and we needed a Plan 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡELteXFEvNu
B, just in case.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6AhcdmstC
"Okay, then, we will meet tomorrow," said G-Dragon as he stood up to leave.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXCkspLGjV
"But I've something to say," I blurted out.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlFmVecYFc
"Not now, Sam. We will 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK7IBh9ZJVl
meet tomorrow," said G-Dragon as he looked at me and walked away from 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj9sudGIfsa
the table heading for the door. I had to admit, the way he looked at me 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6E05tigqtF
gave me goosebumps.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3jdrKqmBST
"Way to go, Sam," said Zoey, as she also stood up from the table. "You just made him upset. I need to go calm him down."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgaDiLO9v3
Zoey went after G-Dragon and I sat back on my chair, feeling defeated and powerless. 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBfxZ9F2dd4
One by one everyone 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpwwJQQEKP
started to leave the table without even saying a word. It was awkward 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmHgCsK8h5v
with the argument that had taken place, and saying something didn't seem818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKTEV35ioQ
appropriate.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4shQFfD8FP
I was soon left with Taeyang at the table and I looked at him, wondering why he hadn't left.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV2x1LyujxR
"Aren't you supposed to have left by now?" I asked.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbfqXkLviI
"And leave you all alone? No way," said Taeyang.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWzPUUNqNsf
"Why do I feel like I've just become the villain?" I asked, my thoughts elsewhere.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgb8pxE15IS
"You aren't a villain. You just feel bad that not everyone agreed to your idea."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsoWaFI6bxF
"It's not that. I pissed818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb5N9isFw3v
almost everyone off and that makes me feel bad. How I wish I could take818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZzUmfI2jJ
everything I said back. Too bad I can't control time."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08rEeSshpe
"You never knew that was going to happen. Let's just hope for the best that it would all seem like one bad dream."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1R333chN6P
"Thanks, Tae" I said, trying to put up a smile. "It means a lot that you're still here."818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5ILzrypzX
Taeyang placed his hand 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwFWaoHmWr1
on my shoulder, an assurance that he was there for me no matter what. He818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMnLXoplErS
smiled back at me and I felt comforted.818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFP6DZ6V3G
I knew I had to hope for818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrcRytNHhPN
the best just like Taeyang had suggested. But I couldn't ignore the gut818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ICsLWpXLG
feeling that things weren't going to run smooth and easy from now 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlrOYflCGDf
on wards. Especially now that G-Dragon was angry at me. He seemed more 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5tWYdt0zjb
angrier at me than I was at him. I feared for the worst and I knew this 818Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYXvuvvXlav
was just the beginning of a heavy storm ahead.
