My body ached all over 833Please respect copyright.PENANA6CuqpMC6bG
when I finally woke up. My eyes slowly opened and a flash of light above833Please respect copyright.PENANA76B5aMIbXE
me was blinding that I had to shield my eyes with my hand. When my eyes833Please respect copyright.PENANARgE2lJx8Sr
adjusted to the light, I sat up and I could tell I hadn't slept on my 833Please respect copyright.PENANA9n7MJKCz1O
bed.833Please respect copyright.PENANAIMBXLR6trL
I scratched my head as I833Please respect copyright.PENANAIMvKt6it7c
slowly took in my surrounding. I had slept in the lounge on the floor. I833Please respect copyright.PENANAhOGXz6cY1O
closed my eyes and murmured to myself. Collins was going to kill me if 833Please respect copyright.PENANA9ECQSmFWye
he found me here.833Please respect copyright.PENANAATM1DuuCCY
I slowly stood up and I 833Please respect copyright.PENANA8qOta6RVXX
realised that I had been covered with a blanket when it dropped to the 833Please respect copyright.PENANA2gDFsPky40
floor. Lee must have found me sleeping and covered me with it. So 833Please respect copyright.PENANAUI6U4pjcbw
thoughtful of her. And the guitar laid on the couch.833Please respect copyright.PENANAjj7VcTxJmm
"Morning, sleepy head," came Collins' voice behind me.833Please respect copyright.PENANAKXtuESeJGr
I almost jumped in 833Please respect copyright.PENANAhzPfHR7LA8
fright when I turned around. I found Collins sitting at the dining 833Please respect copyright.PENANA8qZg21Um3O
table, drinking a hot cup of coffee and looking at his tablet. He was 833Please respect copyright.PENANAsAOpn56kuX
obviously reading the news online.833Please respect copyright.PENANAsLYEuudTQj
"Hey, Collins," I replied as I walked over to him.833Please respect copyright.PENANAzwhLgNXSWE
"What did we say about working on the song the whole night?" Collins asked, still looking at his tablet.833Please respect copyright.PENANAnkPRHpca8l
"'Don't tire yourself 833Please respect copyright.PENANAz6B0FiSClo
out and just go to sleep,'" I said, remembering what Collins had told me833Please respect copyright.PENANAV6mW4jhxFK
last night since I refused to go to sleep when I arrived.833Please respect copyright.PENANAMv33IdKuwk
"And you didn't listen to me and you kept on playing your guitar the whole night. Your song sounds incredible, by the way."833Please respect copyright.PENANAj4P0aGYszp
"Oh, you were listening?"833Please respect copyright.PENANAAsYQfjBC8q
"Ya, you kept on playing833Please respect copyright.PENANAYQVV77cUxo
until I couldn't hear you play anymore. I came to check up on you and 833Please respect copyright.PENANAZknI0as8l3
you were hugging the guitar like a teddy bear."833Please respect copyright.PENANA5zEZr1U65V
"Thanks, Collins." I smiled at him.833Please respect copyright.PENANAAuJPp4Qv1z
"For what?" Collins asked as he looked at me.833Please respect copyright.PENANArGLYMMB7vI
"For covering me with a blanket."833Please respect copyright.PENANAOBrCE5kivd
Collins looked at me 833Please respect copyright.PENANAiHUGtJvaU0
with his eyebrow raised and smiled. "Go take a shower. We need to leave 833Please respect copyright.PENANAshUXwRluvR
for YG. Yang Hyun-suk also needs to hear the song."833Please respect copyright.PENANAN3csJgcMbV
"Okay." I smiled as I nodded.833Please respect copyright.PENANA7lhQ7gpelq
"Morning, people," said Lee as she came into the lounge. "It feels really weird these guys aren't here. The place is so quiet."833Please respect copyright.PENANAZjxPMAFdxS
"I know," I said. "I really miss them."833Please respect copyright.PENANA1fL7aZqusG
"Me too."833Please respect copyright.PENANAJl5tO9Jjjv
"I don't," said Collins as he sipped some of his coffee.833Please respect copyright.PENANAaWQw60bbYX
Lee and I threw Collins angry glances. Collins chuckled to himself.833Please respect copyright.PENANAtwxe9ThZuq
"Going to take a shower," I said.833Please respect copyright.PENANAtcGcLdzspf
"You go do that," said Lee. "I'll order us some breakfast."833Please respect copyright.PENANAn1ajihDGuR
After I freshened myself833Please respect copyright.PENANAnUoS2H3YeN
up, I went back to the lounge. I still found Lee and Collins by the 833Please respect copyright.PENANA9TaF5hgGIK
dining table. Lee was having her usual toast and eggs for breakfast, and833Please respect copyright.PENANApLGGHHqz23
Collins was still on his tablet.833Please respect copyright.PENANAz91Q7UQbGh
"Are you going to keep on reading the news the whole morning?" I asked as I took a seat at the table.833Please respect copyright.PENANA11yfbOxOey
"Nope. Just looking at 833Please respect copyright.PENANAFBGz9ViEMD
messages," Collins replied. "Zoey sent me one. She said she will be 833Please respect copyright.PENANAPxkmKGcADw
coming back late at night with the others."833Please respect copyright.PENANAiMqHR9310k
"Are they having a good time?" I got a slice of bread that laid on the middle of the table and was applying marmalade on it.833Please respect copyright.PENANAwvTzQxQkM9
"You know Zoey. She doesn't take any opportunity for granted when she is in some glamorous place."833Please respect copyright.PENANABiDFbnijFe
"True." I shrugged as I got another slice of bread.833Please respect copyright.PENANAlRXKAS244d
"She even sent Collins a picture," said Lee. She turned to face Collins as she jerked her head. "Show her."833Please respect copyright.PENANAKwGBehuj8i
Collins handed his 833Please respect copyright.PENANA5afvXtMa16
tablet over to me and I took it. Zoey took a selfie of herself with the 833Please respect copyright.PENANA3IBI6Z3ZV7
other Toxins, G-Dragon and TOP behind her. They were all cheering and 833Please respect copyright.PENANAsK6kBuV0IG
raising their hands up in the air. I smiled. Looks like they were really833Please respect copyright.PENANAckqPfRNZXC
having a great time.833Please respect copyright.PENANAMlKkE1Rq5X
"Is it me or is that the Eiffle Tower behind them?" I asked.833Please respect copyright.PENANAriaUA1hvXa
"It sure is," said Lee, raising a cup of coffee to her lips.833Please respect copyright.PENANAP0qwp1pBcY
I mumbled. I had always wanted to go to Paris and see the Eiffle Tower. These guys were so lucky. Boo hoo for me.833Please respect copyright.PENANA0xCw6lQGh8
"They should have as 833Please respect copyright.PENANAYq8ylH6O1f
much fun as they could possibly can," said Collins as I gave him back 833Please respect copyright.PENANAxBgvPhxmyv
the tablet. "They are in for a lovely treat."833Please respect copyright.PENANAXrr8ElF2MB
"What? Is it about the song?" I looked at Collins.833Please respect copyright.PENANA6NPAgk7kMr
"No, it's not about the 833Please respect copyright.PENANAva6nGoUCtU
song. They already know they have a lot of work to do with the song when833Please respect copyright.PENANAtiiq7HHzah
they get back. I'm talking about something else."833Please respect copyright.PENANAWhWHrCREr2
I looked at Lee who sat 833Please respect copyright.PENANAkgyB9Hfslg
opposite me. I gave her a look that told her to tell me what Collins 833Please respect copyright.PENANAcVrY8HbG2k
meant. But she looked at me with a worried expression. That meant she 833Please respect copyright.PENANAj6UsZjZHRP
didn't have the slightest clue of what Collins was talking about.833Please respect copyright.PENANAIE5Ag6V08o
"What are you talking about Collins?" I asked as I poured myself a cup of coffee.833Please respect copyright.PENANAO9rQWz9YIM
"Oh, you will see," said Collins with a huge grin on his face.833Please respect copyright.PENANAZ5LMAMMkxq
I almost shuddered when Collins smiled. I'd never liked that smile. That only meant Collins had something up his sleeve.833Please respect copyright.PENANAc2L8JUjjtX
"You can tell us, Collins. I won't tell the others."833Please respect copyright.PENANANUpblCv8Ig
"If I tell you, I'll 833Please respect copyright.PENANAbjHJbBCYPP
just ruin everything. Just sit back and wait for things to happen. 833Please respect copyright.PENANAPS4THID7kf
Finish your breakfast. We will be out of this place in a few minutes."833Please respect copyright.PENANAhqG6Sqdzv2
Collins got up from his 833Please respect copyright.PENANAZvYTmRTvPp
chair and walked away with a satisfied look on his face. How I wish I 833Please respect copyright.PENANAeVc0ym0WjB
knew what he was thinking. Whatever he planned for us seemed rather 833Please respect copyright.PENANA2UyPUR9BkT
amusing to him and might turn out bad for some of us.833Please respect copyright.PENANATwQNiyoYIT
"What do you know?" I 833Please respect copyright.PENANAgR1mzPSa5B
asked Lee, immediately I knew that Collins was in his room. I leaned 833Please respect copyright.PENANAuTLt5GTOSU
forward to look at her straight in the eye. I seemed more like a 833Please respect copyright.PENANA9tpEiThcqt
detective asking questions to a criminal.833Please respect copyright.PENANA8M5OjDPbXC
"I don't know," Lee 833Please respect copyright.PENANAd6H4fUBeWj
replied with a shocked look on her face. "I am as surprised as you are. 833Please respect copyright.PENANAhySyWGUIyp
And besides, I wasn't with Collins the whole day of yesterday."833Please respect copyright.PENANA2ZtvMPIDpt
I knew something was up 833Please respect copyright.PENANAIK7gsYLRDW
when Collins wasn't around yesterday. I wondered what he and Yang 833Please respect copyright.PENANApicKkSDr1w
Hyun-suk had planned this time. Collins had a happy look on his face.833Please respect copyright.PENANAXVimlhPxxT
"This is not good," I said as I leaned back on my seat.833Please respect copyright.PENANAyrLBUCrRjt
"I don't think it's that bad," said Lee. "Whatever they have planned, will be okay. Even for you."833Please respect copyright.PENANAHnLjwWhvue
"Well, hopefully." I blew out a puff of air and shook my head as I thought of what happened to G-Dragon and I yesterday.833Please respect copyright.PENANAngrdvkftxF
"Hey, what's wrong?"833Please respect copyright.PENANAb7OjR7tqG5
"I think G-Dragon and I aren't on good terms again."833Please respect copyright.PENANA82GMERXTqQ
"What? What happened?" Lee looked shocked and then again, confused.833Please respect copyright.PENANAZ6p180iXK9
"Things were going so well before things went down the drain when Zoey and TOP came to YG yesterday."833Please respect copyright.PENANAKm7UfHqz9k
Lee leaned her head backwards and let out a huge murmuring sound. "Don't tell me Zoey ruined everything."833Please respect copyright.PENANA11C4OukbBn
"Well, kind of," I said 833Please respect copyright.PENANAws0FN5aHH8
as I thought of what happened and who to blame. "It's complicated. And 833Please respect copyright.PENANAxplyOWRRla
to be honest, I don't who to blame. But it wasn't entirely their fault."833Please respect copyright.PENANA9IT8H5Hecm
"Eat up. You will need all the energy to sing that song. We'll talk about this later."833Please respect copyright.PENANAQbUHNYdNrR
"Okay."833Please respect copyright.PENANASifPEhr1u8
I was just done eating my breakfast when Collins came to tell us that it was time to go. I carried the guitar and my notebook.833Please respect copyright.PENANAwpkKLzvj0i
Lee, Collins and I soon 833Please respect copyright.PENANAn6wWl3DAUh
left the hotel and we were at YG. To be honest, I felt kind of nervous. I833Please respect copyright.PENANAx63LfnfFD0
was going to perform the song in front of Collins and Yang Hyun-suk but833Please respect copyright.PENANALdESmnQ1lx
it felt like I was going on the X Factor auditions just to be judged 833Please respect copyright.PENANAGAC4mkypfL
afterwards. Collins did say the song sounded amazing. I just wondered 833Please respect copyright.PENANAWR8u8Gwaga
what Yang Hyun-suk would say.833Please respect copyright.PENANAu53Ma7dgkl
I was waiting in th 833Please respect copyright.PENANAdw4RSS1Wj0
recording studio, waiting for Collins and Yang Hyun-suk. I kept telling 833Please respect copyright.PENANAMWlwz1TF8F
myself that everything was going to be alright and I shouldn't worry 833Please respect copyright.PENANApixpPMU6QP
because I had gone through all of this several times. But today, I was 833Please respect copyright.PENANA4zNfMO2t8e
edgy and my heart was beating so fast.833Please respect copyright.PENANAALLMe5rQy4
I was pacing up and down833Please respect copyright.PENANATlS0InmHaS
with agitation written all over my face when the door to the studio 833Please respect copyright.PENANADzslmYk5bJ
opened. I turned to the door and Lee came in with Taeyang and his 833Please respect copyright.PENANAv1u1FPG5D7
girlfriend, Hyo-rin. Well, this is a surprise. I never thought I would 833Please respect copyright.PENANA4XPyVDJemZ
ever meet Hyo-rin again. Well, not today when I'm about to sing a song 833Please respect copyright.PENANAJFGnWY4BJ8
and I was so nervous.833Please respect copyright.PENANAypiYgboowd
"Here she is," said Lee,833Please respect copyright.PENANANZv7aoyCaD
turning to face Taeyang and Hyo-rin. "I've tried to calm her down but 833Please respect copyright.PENANA4z3Ik21XpW
she can't stop pacing up and down like an ant. Maybe she will listen to 833Please respect copyright.PENANALuRn0Zydul
you, Tae."833Please respect copyright.PENANAIxDGmKveGR
I frowned at Lee and I 833Please respect copyright.PENANAphK1wiMtnr
wanted to snap at her but I brushed it off. She hadn't even made an 833Please respect copyright.PENANAOuyf0ntpL6
effort to try and calm me down. She had left me all alone. What a 833Please respect copyright.PENANAT8ac7gyt3q
friend.833Please respect copyright.PENANAqvSp9AKmmT
"Hi, Tae," I said and walked over to Hyo-rin and gave her a hug.833Please respect copyright.PENANAMXKWmxOqoD
"I never thought I would see you again," I said to Hyo-rin with a smile after I hugged her.833Please respect copyright.PENANAuExFGYmcyY
"I told Taeyang that I 833Please respect copyright.PENANAJGXhcqdtrI
wanted to see you," said Hyo-rin. "Looks like I decided to come and see 833Please respect copyright.PENANAj5eq5TkXUq
you at the right time when you're about to sing the song."833Please respect copyright.PENANAnnmSZXPfz8
"Our manager called me 833Please respect copyright.PENANA8givB9kYpk
to come to the studio and listen to the song," said Taeyang, answering 833Please respect copyright.PENANAeSWGDGl08x
the puzzled look on my face. "Hyo-rin came to see me and heard my 833Please respect copyright.PENANAOFCk0hvQy3
conversation on the phone. That's why she wanted to come and see you."833Please respect copyright.PENANAq2RHXufCMq
"Thanks," I said. "Maybe with you guys around I might just calm down a little bit."833Please respect copyright.PENANAkbFRLW1BN9
"I'll go and check on the managers and see what's taking them so long," said Lee as she started to head out of the room.833Please respect copyright.PENANAiamLTYUy0y
I wanted to call out to her and tell her to let it be. I didn't want our managers here just yet. But she had already left.833Please respect copyright.PENANAX3rvGnIFbv
"So, where are the others?" Hyo-rin asked as she took a seat on the comfortable leather couch and Taeyang followed.833Please respect copyright.PENANAMgR3HTujhE
"They left for Paris," I answered. I was still standing with my arms folded.833Please respect copyright.PENANAD1UnL5yyc4
"Oh, they left with GD," said Taeyang. "He told me last night."833Please respect copyright.PENANAl0gdqgRxOH
"Ya, these guys are having a ton of fun right now," I said as I looked at my fingers.833Please respect copyright.PENANAirSYdRdjpC
"But how come you didn't go with them?" Hyo-rin asked.833Please respect copyright.PENANAcqwzesiEqW
"I had the song to finish up. Trust me, it wasn't easy. But I had help before they could leave for Paris."833Please respect copyright.PENANAE9Egv0urPN
"Looks like you're always the one stuck here working hard while the others go out and have fun."833Please respect copyright.PENANA73uwvXKRqU
"Ya. Looks like it." I smiled slightly.833Please respect copyright.PENANA7EGU61XrT4
"You managed to finish the song?" Taeyang asked.833Please respect copyright.PENANATTQTgYRZ7A
"I did. Want to take a look at the lyrics?"833Please respect copyright.PENANAPaH5Bp0CfT
"Sure."833Please respect copyright.PENANA4nlMapkVk1
I gave Taeyang my 833Please respect copyright.PENANAn9Xnw5gUIi
notebook and with Hyo-rin beside him, they looked at the lyrics 833Please respect copyright.PENANAwJggeaYDTn
together. I couldn't help but smile at the two of them. They looked so 833Please respect copyright.PENANAdu6J4IyfJn
cute together.833Please respect copyright.PENANArPvAax70ZI
"I can't wait for you to sing the song for us," said Hyo-rin as she looked at me. "The lyrics sound really good."833Please respect copyright.PENANAwM8zLvaHUW
"Thanks. I was singing 833Please respect copyright.PENANAddM1WgUhSU
the song while playing the guitar the whole night. I had to make it work833Please respect copyright.PENANAhELWppfx1J
on the second verse and since the song is mixed with English and 833Please respect copyright.PENANA82LvWPCCA6
Korean, I just had to make it perfect."833Please respect copyright.PENANAaPQyZpNQKS
"You can read Korean?" Hyo-rin asked.833Please respect copyright.PENANAzpTUyNB6eG
"Well...not really," I 833Please respect copyright.PENANA4fYbBlRZlE
said shrugging my shoulders. "I had to learn the Korean alphabet and the833Please respect copyright.PENANAojz3Na7gxo
vowels. And with GD and TOP's help yesterday, I was fine with it."833Please respect copyright.PENANAl8qe26WiIX
"Wow. Pretty smart," said Hyo-rin with a smile on her face.833Please respect copyright.PENANAQwVMGIKeSx
"Sam is totally smart," said Taeyang. "And this song is going to be a huge hit."833Please respect copyright.PENANAZ7qnV5PJRF
I couldn't help but smile at their sweet compliments. That made me forget about my fear. For now.833Please respect copyright.PENANArsulrYEvbk
The door suddenly flew open and Seungri and Daesung came in. Seungri rushed to hug me when he first saw me.833Please respect copyright.PENANAH0kZfwZ9Yu
"Hey, I missed you so much," said Seungri.833Please respect copyright.PENANAwgylSYE15M
"Ya, me too," I said as I tried to breathe. Seungri always hugged me so tight.833Please respect copyright.PENANAT8VGfYJWCD
"Hey, Sam," said Daesung as he came over to hug me.833Please respect copyright.PENANABYz4a3PAcK
"Hi," I blushed when we hugged and I smiled like a fool.833Please respect copyright.PENANA9Osqwcm5pj
"So, when do we hear the song?" Seungri asked, looking so excited.833Please respect copyright.PENANAaGxcAIldsz
Before I could reply, a voice came at the door. Yang Hyun-suk's voice.833Please respect copyright.PENANAdQ23VwHDuM
"Right now."833Please respect copyright.PENANAtD79lyEGIR
We all turned towards 833Please respect copyright.PENANAhp5dnZfsqB
the door. Yang Hyun-suk, Collins, Lee and one of YG's music producers 833Please respect copyright.PENANANymEVyK8yc
came in. This was it. I couldn't help but feel my palms get so sweaty.833Please respect copyright.PENANAqv8sXL89H0
When everyone got 833Please respect copyright.PENANAwCqqCoMg68
settled onto the couch, I sat facing them sitting on a long stool and 833Please respect copyright.PENANAXULRV7YPUO
holding the guitar. I looked on at the others and all I wanted was to 833Please respect copyright.PENANAAbdY9omKO5
run out of the room.833Please respect copyright.PENANAtGDSzLZKiO
"We're ready when you're," said Yang Hyun-suk.833Please respect copyright.PENANAyEtn2AaZWT
I nodded my head and my 833Please respect copyright.PENANACrrEvdB4XW
heart couldn't stop beating so hard. I tried to settle properly with the833Please respect copyright.PENANAgjhJ56Touv
guitar on my lap, but it felt so heavy like it was the first time when I833Please respect copyright.PENANAkbwVZvFTlR
ever got to play it.833Please respect copyright.PENANAqHKkaoWXAY
I felt a break of sweat 833Please respect copyright.PENANABWumciL3Ke
would start to appear on my forehead. I blew out a puff of air and 833Please respect copyright.PENANA0UH9e3Fh1P
stared at the audience. Daesung gave me an encouraging smile and I 833Please respect copyright.PENANA0staPqP0UN
slightly smiled back. I relaxed myself for a bit and closed my eyes as I833Please respect copyright.PENANAsjuFBPfpcl
strung the strings on the guitar.833Please respect copyright.PENANAoueLJBHhJ5
I started to sing as I 833Please respect copyright.PENANAyF6htOp3AU
played the instrument. My fear soon left me as I sang. It was going well833Please respect copyright.PENANAPsAIdVROuH
so far. Then I came to the second verse where most of the lyrics were 833Please respect copyright.PENANA1TzoOeaKgo
in Korean. I thought I would stumble and say something wrong but I 833Please respect copyright.PENANAtLSv1YpgcS
didn't. Well, I hope so.833Please respect copyright.PENANAAm8ZuaAjaR
As soon as I was done 833Please respect copyright.PENANAzh2NlAklwY
singing the whole song, I looked up at everyone. I had been trying to 833Please respect copyright.PENANAsY90Nd7Jp2
avoid their gaze the whole time so that I wouldn't really mess up with 833Please respect copyright.PENANAreHWVwXnqj
the song. I did get a few glances of their faces here and there, but I 833Please respect copyright.PENANA1MZ7FNQIfr
was staring above their heads the whole time and closing my eyes. I just833Please respect copyright.PENANAYXGnBbV42W
hoped they liked it.833Please respect copyright.PENANAucyhbmxGMq
The studio was still 833Please respect copyright.PENANAjHxbS7SCg0
quiet. No one had said a word and I got scared. Wasn't it good enough? 833Please respect copyright.PENANA5uMGvqUvLU
Why weren't they saying anything? I looked on at Yang Hyun-suk and he 833Please respect copyright.PENANAVTqQP0O0Sg
had a grim look on his face. Oh, no.833Please respect copyright.PENANAeE28Bt7VzQ
Yang Hyun-suk cleared 833Please respect copyright.PENANALEwEzNP8bB
his throat. I knew he was going to speak first. Yikes! Not him. I would 833Please respect copyright.PENANAGpfSTEQXkl
rather he said what he wanted to say last. I crossed my fingers.833Please respect copyright.PENANAYn2idmjxgS
"Well, Sam," started Yang Hyun-suk. "The song is really....."833Please respect copyright.PENANAPyVqKCZsue
This was it. The hammer 833Please respect copyright.PENANAezZQQulAI6
blow to my career. I wanted to close my eyes as I waited for any hurtful833Please respect copyright.PENANAZnTCiISka2
word ready to come out of his mouth. I knew it was going to sting.833Please respect copyright.PENANAPCdFyAjSxU
"....incredible."833Please respect copyright.PENANA2hSNbkIBoQ
I opened my eyes and I 833Please respect copyright.PENANAlAK3bsGfzN
couldn't believe that word just came out of his mouth. I looked up at 833Please respect copyright.PENANABoMcACpHB3
him and he started to clap his hands. The others followed. There was a 833Please respect copyright.PENANAOcnL00N8FX
round of applause in the room and I couldn't help but smile to myself. 833Please respect copyright.PENANAfqn3VzXS5s
It was such a relief. I could finally breathe.833Please respect copyright.PENANAn26UaXNWb9
"I've to admit, when 833Please respect copyright.PENANAJVY7RU059i
Collins told me that the song was good, I didn't believe him," said Yang833Please respect copyright.PENANAK3fmtFUNR8
Hyun-suk, as he stood up from the couch. "It's just incredible."833Please respect copyright.PENANADMt9zJj2Hx
"Thank you," I said as I bowed my head.833Please respect copyright.PENANAoz6tzH91tZ
"You better start working on it," said Yang Hyun-suk. "Today."833Please respect copyright.PENANAkzY5FuqabM
"We sure will," said Taeyang as he came up to me. "That was mind blowing, Sam."833Please respect copyright.PENANAKirEsvTdyU
"Thanks," I said as I jumped off the stool. "I hope my Korean was okay."833Please respect copyright.PENANAWYhWZz9Lwj
"Are you kidding me? You sounded amazing," said Seungri.833Please respect copyright.PENANARscRaWCNgM
"I agree," said Hyo-rin. "You sung in Korean like you've known that language your whole life."833Please respect copyright.PENANA7V0ggaLdmZ
I couldn't stop smiling 833Please respect copyright.PENANA4BMxnKpRhK
at the others. I kept on receiving praises from the others including 833Please respect copyright.PENANA7pbn5MS4wk
Daesung who said that I had such a beautiful golden voice. I blushed and833Please respect copyright.PENANA9ss6ETG9JK
told him that wasn't true. To me, there was a big difference between a 833Please respect copyright.PENANA14tiQeQ7xH
good voice and a golden one.833Please respect copyright.PENANAA2LfVissdf
Immediately our managers833Please respect copyright.PENANAHQcRe9jH8n
left with Lee, we went over to join the music producer by the audio 833Please respect copyright.PENANA63DotVky0p
engines and the multi track console. Above the console was a huge window833Please respect copyright.PENANAq1cb4HJ8fa
that showed the live room where we the artists sing and play any 833Please respect copyright.PENANAJH7BpwnOas
musical instruments.833Please respect copyright.PENANAsar6mwLz1K
This was always the hard833Please respect copyright.PENANAcIlS1GDO5s
part of producing a track. Making the melodies and to find the right 833Please respect copyright.PENANAN5H5pHebEv
tune for the song. I still had the tune of the song stuck in my head. 833Please respect copyright.PENANA44f3g5GZTd
But it was going to be difficult to make it sound right now that we had 833Please respect copyright.PENANAdmyt4RbZDa
to use auto tunes and electric beats.833Please respect copyright.PENANA0BlbciV1yy
An hour had passed and I833Please respect copyright.PENANAMLAmFrMnvp
was already feeling so tired. Making the soundtrack was so hard. And 833Please respect copyright.PENANA3bJae3QlCM
this time, I got so tired so quickly. Must be that I really didn't have 833Please respect copyright.PENANA8ThOj7cuTQ
enough sleep last night. I was having a whole lot of fun with Daesung, 833Please respect copyright.PENANAvIBB9imvlh
Seungri and Taeyang around. I admired Hyo-rin who sat leisurely on the 833Please respect copyright.PENANAUbar6M4Drp
couch and would come up and join us whenever she felt like it.833Please respect copyright.PENANANBKTrohGbl
"It's been an hour and I833Please respect copyright.PENANAk5iSTU0pIU
already feel so tired," I mumbled as I leaned by head backward as I sat833Please respect copyright.PENANAQL75phADL3
on a chair next to the music producer. "This is so hard."833Please respect copyright.PENANAWDlh0NJQlT
"Mind if I give you a massage?" Seungri asked as he came to stand behind me.833Please respect copyright.PENANAfXDB46jwje
"No. I wonder what's wrong with you sometimes," I said as I rubbed my neck. "I don't need a massage."833Please respect copyright.PENANAF9VidNnfXn
"Trust me, you're so 833Please respect copyright.PENANAsAKRdqji5Z
tense," said Seungri as he laid his hands gently on my shoulders. 833Please respect copyright.PENANAuK20H8KAVo
"You've been working too hard. You definitely need a massage."833Please respect copyright.PENANAzmTPSDWWnI
"No, Seungri." I tried to brush Seungri's hands away but he didn't budge.833Please respect copyright.PENANA1Z3LkJY31k
"Come on, Sam," said Hyo-rin, looking up from her phone. "Just let him massage you. The maknae always gets what he wants."833Please respect copyright.PENANANV7Md19xjQ
"Oh, please." I rolled my eyes. "I never let Daniel do whatever he wants. Why should I let Seungri?"833Please respect copyright.PENANAWmodHfdTba
"Sam's right. And besides, Seungri can't give a proper massage," said Daesung.833Please respect copyright.PENANAn4HKtYStZY
"Yes, I do!" Seungri snapped at Daesung.833Please respect copyright.PENANAImOlQZxnxC
"No you don't!" Daesung snapped back.833Please respect copyright.PENANASYSLaHrUm2
"I'm not going to talk about it," said Seungri as he started to relax my muscles on my shoulders.833Please respect copyright.PENANAZx2YJKybTf
"Mmmm." I murmured in 833Please respect copyright.PENANApx97XNdyBO
pleasure as I smiled and closed my eyes. I could feel my body relax. 833Please respect copyright.PENANAgcdqHsewms
"You're really good, Seungri. I might just hire you as my personal 833Please respect copyright.PENANA4mZWQfgy5w
masseur."833Please respect copyright.PENANAETCoXfgl32
"Thank you. I would definitely be your personal masseur."833Please respect copyright.PENANAygbnz349t3
I heard Daesung mutter to himself and I smiled. Looks like someone was jealous.833Please respect copyright.PENANA2DKIVeUfD7
The music producer soon 833Please respect copyright.PENANADzqD8VaIM7
decided to take a break and he left. We made the studio more like our 833Please respect copyright.PENANACWPFRi8Xg2
own crib. We sat by the couch chatting and laughing. I was even playing 833Please respect copyright.PENANAEf7noMFv0r
with the guitar and we were singing some random songs together. It was 833Please respect copyright.PENANAS6nKP1bAU1
so much fun. Lee came in with our lunch and afterwards we were back to 833Please respect copyright.PENANAcLDidU4moh
recording the track.833Please respect copyright.PENANAGxFKCRQf71
We spent another two hours recording, when Collins came into the room.833Please respect copyright.PENANA8cRcTAJv5Y
"Hey, Collins," I said as I turned to look at him, removing the headphones from my ears.833Please respect copyright.PENANAXsPqiyOmWI
"I want you guys to do me a favour," said Collins.833Please respect copyright.PENANA3q8vzFg8er
"What is it?" Taeyang asked as he also turned around to look at Collins.833Please respect copyright.PENANA9U63ECYbns
"Zoey and the others will be coming later on in the evening, so I want you guys to go and pick them up."833Please respect copyright.PENANAIxFBl12Aie
I raised my eyebrow at Collins. "Why don't you do it? I mean, it's never a big deal for you, right?"833Please respect copyright.PENANAi134aruLG6
"I'm busy, Sam. So I was833Please respect copyright.PENANAB3FriZlnaf
thinking that you guys should do it. It will be good for you guys to 833Please respect copyright.PENANAJGv0NFaI7b
catch up with all that's happened in Paris."833Please respect copyright.PENANAljjNxbOqWH
"Let me guess, you're 833Please respect copyright.PENANAvp3AFtlz68
avoiding all the talking and yapping from Zoey." Daesung and Seungri 833Please respect copyright.PENANAjMJo46XPHs
were snickering and I couldn't help but smile.833Please respect copyright.PENANA2SD4CRH0rC
"You know me so well." Collins smirked. "But also it's because I have some important work to do."833Please respect copyright.PENANArItSdTX2KF
Something told me his 833Please respect copyright.PENANA0LcsyrW6LO
important work had something to do with what he talked about this 833Please respect copyright.PENANAbgfGOW2q6Q
morning. I dared not try to ask because he would brush me off like he 833Please respect copyright.PENANAwqAKXnfWeW
always does.833Please respect copyright.PENANAtpQ2rTz4b0
"Don't worry about it," said Daesung. "We will go and pick them up."833Please respect copyright.PENANAGcPDgcAfOx
"Thanks, guys," said Collins and he left the room.833Please respect copyright.PENANADfEhjBeXQ6
It was late in the 833Please respect copyright.PENANA5cF3E7wMVc
afternoon and I was as tired as hell. I was leaning my head on the 833Please respect copyright.PENANAKfOWpRP43f
console, careful not to mess around with the buttons and all. I had my 833Please respect copyright.PENANAtbxQnymEh1
eyes closed and I could slowly feel myself drifting away to sleep. 833Please respect copyright.PENANAlwRf8bQOWQ
Taeyang pulled up the headphones from my ears and that made me sit up.833Please respect copyright.PENANANuj6mV1URR
"What did I miss?" I asked, sounding drowsy and rubbing my eyes, when I knew nothing much had happened.833Please respect copyright.PENANAor1M9Q1Xhf
"Nothing. You just dosed off for a few seconds," said Taeyang.833Please respect copyright.PENANAbitKDpaGUa
I looked beside him and I833Please respect copyright.PENANAuyKWNETSsD
realised Daesung and Seungri weren't on their seats. I looked behind 833Please respect copyright.PENANAyM4rVt7Mbm
and I saw them on the couch with Hyo-rin looking a little tired. The 833Please respect copyright.PENANAG0iFGYPOcL
music producer had already left the room and I had taken the liberty of 833Please respect copyright.PENANAtvPpSJemhG
leaning my head on the console.833Please respect copyright.PENANAssDIKtICi9
"I always hate this part833Please respect copyright.PENANAWmW6whQXG7
of making a music track. As much as I love producing music, it gets me 833Please respect copyright.PENANAjblSURdLdy
so worked up and tired," I said as I leaned my head back onto the 833Please respect copyright.PENANAJAGfLYiv8S
console.833Please respect copyright.PENANAHxLXcWwldw
"Ya, I understand you," said Taeyang. "I wonder what time these guys will get back."833Please respect copyright.PENANA4FMucEFNIp
"Didn't Collins say at night?" I asked through a muffled tone.833Please respect copyright.PENANAEbiNSN6yA9
"I wonder what time."833Please respect copyright.PENANA8lyjoQWDNx
"Wait." I pushed my head833Please respect copyright.PENANAfORpUfpdPj
upwards and felt like my head was spinning out of control. I was still 833Please respect copyright.PENANAtTbjudTgFI
feeling sleepy and I had to hold my head for a while as though I was 833Please respect copyright.PENANAjInUI5mfh6
drunk and the world around me was spinning.833Please respect copyright.PENANABzmMFV46Y2
"Whoa! Are you okay, Sam?" Hyo-rin asked as she came over.833Please respect copyright.PENANAOZNoflQhaP
"Ya, I'm fine. Just tired." I pulled out my phone out of my pocket and decided to call Collins.833Please respect copyright.PENANAMuQgN177zs
"You know, if you're tired you shouldn't come with us to the airport," said Daesung. "You look really tired."833Please respect copyright.PENANAVrKOAlNLBF
"I didn't sleep well 833Please respect copyright.PENANALZIkRc4mK3
last night," I said as I rubbed my eyes. The phone screen was all 833Please respect copyright.PENANAOGQU0WcStZ
blurring. "I stayed up all night and slept on the floor."833Please respect copyright.PENANAXukCsFOMuP
"Ya, you better not come with us, my little panda," said Seungri. "You need a whole lot of rest."833Please respect copyright.PENANAThTm83uzsv
"You're right." I soon 833Please respect copyright.PENANALBHmOFAE1S
dialled Collins number and asked him what time the plane would actually 833Please respect copyright.PENANAgP2tK9ecaK
arrive and that I wouldn't be able to go.833Please respect copyright.PENANAWMh7AynVr4
"He said they might come at nine in the evening," I said when I cut the call. I was so sleepy I felt like I couldn't stand up.833Please respect copyright.PENANAibJlQUdcMA
"Well, since we are all done here, you can go back to the hotel and rest," said Taeyang. "We will take you."833Please respect copyright.PENANAcd4xQ1JMOY
"Alright. Thanks."833Please respect copyright.PENANAVQopIErMPd
"I'm coming too," said Daesung.833Please respect copyright.PENANA14IPbB0NjN
"And so will I," said Seungri.833Please respect copyright.PENANAqYIOItW8gT
"Guys, it's fine. Taeyang and Hyo-rin will take me," I said with a small smile on my face as I faced Seungri and Daesung.833Please respect copyright.PENANAVgamZ1QIDo
Immediately I left the 833Please respect copyright.PENANA2lUYSbJgSG
studio with Taeyang and Hyo-rin, Hyo-rin couldn't help but say, "was it 833Please respect copyright.PENANAqGZcJmwls7
just me or Daesung and Seungri were fighting over you?"833Please respect copyright.PENANAEBiX7s2Icl
"Pfft! Fighting over me? How?" I asked trying my best not to smile through my tired face.833Please respect copyright.PENANAKusPzU5wBi
"Well, the time Seungri was massaging you, Daesung was totally jealous," Hyo-rin said. "What do you think, Tae?"833Please respect copyright.PENANADqbVvcXwiH
"Well, I think they were just playing around," said Taeyang as we entered the elevator.833Please respect copyright.PENANAPZv0uXliXW
Phew! Taeyang hadn't 833Please respect copyright.PENANATEh2aF1AQK
noticed or else he would have agreed with Hyo-rin. But anyway, I was 833Please respect copyright.PENANAJQrfJWPS1W
tired and was in no state of talking about who liked me or not.833Please respect copyright.PENANAIszHC0IyVN
The next thing I 833Please respect copyright.PENANAZUonhaaED6
remember was lying on my comfy pillows back at the hotel and my eyes 833Please respect copyright.PENANALU8yzVTzJe
roll back.I covered myself with a blanket and I felt like I was sleeping833Please respect copyright.PENANAGeYPGZ76Ba
on clouds, slowly drifting to sleep.833Please respect copyright.PENANA4Nz3J9OB9k
I woke up by the sound 833Please respect copyright.PENANAl3oW57clBp
of my phone ringing and I squinted after I opened my eyes and closed 833Please respect copyright.PENANAHhhPaWwFSC
them again. I murmured as I tried to look for my phone. My arm moved 833Please respect copyright.PENANA1WiGfL3Hyt
here and there on the bed and I couldn't remember where I had put my 833Please respect copyright.PENANAQr0KNtho5R
phone. I was too lazy to even open my eyes to look for it.833Please respect copyright.PENANAECK34F8qB3
I reached out for the 833Please respect copyright.PENANAfcTRd660tG
drawer beside the bed and as I fumbled on the surface looking for the 833Please respect copyright.PENANA3Ec2M8qa81
phone, I heard someone come in the room and before I could open my eyes,833Please respect copyright.PENANApNo1yEb25p
I felt something in the palm of my hand. Was that my phone?833Please respect copyright.PENANASVPFGsEVes
I fully opened my eyes and indeed, the phone was in my hand. I looked up and Lee was the looking down at me.833Please respect copyright.PENANATDvAQHkCa1
"How did you know I needed my phone?" I asked.833Please respect copyright.PENANA2iNHaSROTd
"I could hear it ringing833Please respect copyright.PENANAE3TwnCeAJO
and I was just passing by your room. Thought you would still be asleep 833Please respect copyright.PENANAj3rr4UZhVH
but when I came in you were struggling to find it," Lee answered.833Please respect copyright.PENANAKA26R7nPUS
"Thanks," I said as I 833Please respect copyright.PENANADzdWKA8Zjk
sat up on the bed. My phone had stopped ringing and I had to wait till I833Please respect copyright.PENANAyFnKGtv3fp
could let my eyes adjust to see who had called.833Please respect copyright.PENANATpCoYroUhC
"I hope this is the last time you ever stay up all night," said Lee. "You looked really tired when you came back."833Please respect copyright.PENANAVgLEPnEPKU
"You know I will keep on doing it time and again," I said as I looked at my phone. I had two missed calls.833Please respect copyright.PENANAk23m58pFbi
"Never mind. I'll order supper. You must be hungry."833Please respect copyright.PENANAiGLZzVCQhj
"Thanks. I'll be out in a minute."833Please respect copyright.PENANAKFkkyQEApu
Lee left the room and I 833Please respect copyright.PENANAwQVSoLzudd
went on to look at my phone. I had missed calls from Zoey, and this was 833Please respect copyright.PENANALN54QxM6W7
just 9:30 PM. They must have already landed.833Please respect copyright.PENANAfRGsa9kMl2
"Hey, Lee," I called out to Lee as I found her watching a Korean drama series holding a bowl of popcorn. "Is Collins around?"833Please respect copyright.PENANAKYXLsbriWJ
"No," Lee answered, putting popcorn in her mouth.833Please respect copyright.PENANAtS6Qm5Uzxl
I joined her on the couch and took a handful of popcorn from the bowl. "Did he tell you where he went?"833Please respect copyright.PENANA9Ph2VDqC5K
"No. But I bet it's got to do with what he told us this morning."833Please respect copyright.PENANAUjsxIb84Zz
"Of course." I rolled my eyes. "I should have known. Are you watching Boys Over Flowers?" I pointed at the TV screen.833Please respect copyright.PENANAkLM8bdfs5J
"Yes, it is. Your supper is on the table. Go get your plate and come over and sit. This series is so awesome."833Please respect copyright.PENANAeyo5Vji6Ux
I dashed over to the 833Please respect copyright.PENANAzjRCIhY0oo
dining table where there was a plate of spaghetti and meatballs. I 833Please respect copyright.PENANAS0WTIij9HQ
quickly dashed back to the couch and the two of us watched the series.833Please respect copyright.PENANAz8ExbW9GmB
It was now 10 PM and 833Please respect copyright.PENANAgdoDBAPJkm
Zoey and the others still hadn't arrived. I looked at my phone to see if833Please respect copyright.PENANAYg40k7jeMp
there were any messages or missed calls but nothing. I wonder where 833Please respect copyright.PENANAzHv6e0QQci
they were right now.833Please respect copyright.PENANAbnxiWa3p27
"Hey, what's wrong?" Lee asked as she looked at me. The episode had ended and a commercial came up.833Please respect copyright.PENANAk1XE1iBBi9
"Nothing. I was wondering why these guys are not back yet."833Please respect copyright.PENANAhfNRsKUAGC
"Who knows. I just hope they didn't get into any trouble, even on the road." Lee laughed.833Please respect copyright.PENANAb68JmE3N2r
"I hope not. After what happened at Caribbean Bay, I don't think they would want to go through something like that again."833Please respect copyright.PENANAcFLkTLHkja
"Why? You don't want to help them out again?"833Please respect copyright.PENANAhAbKsLpCgt
"Nope. I already had my own share of getting those guys out of trouble."833Please respect copyright.PENANA2NTGoqNUKp
"True."833Please respect copyright.PENANACrwIzmvtiC
We soon heard the elevator doors opening and we both got up from the couch to the hallway to see who had arrived.833Please respect copyright.PENANASjVNr4dMph
Two bell boys came out 833Please respect copyright.PENANAc9r1mApwt7
of the elevator first and I was confused until I saw they were bringing 833Please respect copyright.PENANApHsth2SmgU
in boxes and wrapped packages. Lee and I looked at each other.833Please respect copyright.PENANAcSEoCRY8Ht
"Zoey." We both said at the same time.833Please respect copyright.PENANAdRQ1sRjlTa
There were so many gift 833Please respect copyright.PENANARdQ3toajWy
boxes and packages from Paris, Lee and I had to help out with the bell 833Please respect copyright.PENANAJWTZH6x4pV
boys with bringing everything in. Some of the boxes also had to come 833Please respect copyright.PENANA0rV7cxOkqO
into the lounge. I was glad Collins wasn't here yet. He was going to be 833Please respect copyright.PENANAHrA7orkqi5
so pissed.833Please respect copyright.PENANAlgBl0mmYIP
"Where is Zoey?" I asked one of the bell boys as we put in some boxes in the lounge.833Please respect copyright.PENANAGuCkevbYjY
"They are downstairs," he answered.833Please respect copyright.PENANAJAHlkKpUHS
After we were done putting in the packages, Lee and I followed the bell boys into the elevator heading to the ground floor.833Please respect copyright.PENANAYosGIdj4Us
When the doors flew 833Please respect copyright.PENANA8ouon6xhW4
open, I saw the Toxins and BigBang in the lobby all indulged in some 833Please respect copyright.PENANAIsenzTAdyu
conversation. Even Hyo-rin was there. They didn't seem to notice Lee and833Please respect copyright.PENANAvPawbnegSo
I until Daniel looked towards the elevator.833Please respect copyright.PENANAsHPWZdYzd0
"Sam! Lee!" Daniel exclaimed and he ran towards me.833Please respect copyright.PENANA8gHG8hzpsS
"Hey!" I was surprised when he came to hug me. "You've never come running towards me like this in a while."833Please respect copyright.PENANAEKu08weuWH
"I just missed you," said Daniel. "You too, Lee."833Please respect copyright.PENANATR9Pd4BVTv
As Daniel hugged Lee, Mike came to hug me. I was even more surprised.833Please respect copyright.PENANAprLW4SDLnp
"Guys, you've been away for a day and you're acting like you've been away for months," I said.833Please respect copyright.PENANAMigTDM9CEA
"Paris was nice, but not without you, Sam," said Mike.833Please respect copyright.PENANAsfvLBfWyDX
"Don't tell me Zoey was acting like a control freak," said Lee teasingly.833Please respect copyright.PENANAqjNiEgKAAQ
"Hey," Zoey came over to us. "I tried to be really reasonable this time around. Don't blame me."833Please respect copyright.PENANANiiI0YD6iT
"We aren't blaming you for anything, Zoey," I said. "How was Paris?"833Please respect copyright.PENANART7Fos7jjg
Zoey hugged me instead. "I missed you so much, my little kitty!"833Please respect copyright.PENANAQgNmrqpaRb
I raised an eyebrow. 833Please respect copyright.PENANAX1qKn6Yyyy
Something was definitely up this time. Christine also came to join in 833Please respect copyright.PENANANZo5HhHn7K
the hug. What did these guys do in Paris for them to behave like this?833Please respect copyright.PENANAybiR2JNYb8
"Okay. Enough," I said as I shook off Zoey and Christine away from me. "Can someone please tell me why you're acting like this?"833Please respect copyright.PENANA4Qr8OuoRhy
"Everyone just missed 833Please respect copyright.PENANAPSmqXxdNQZ
you. That's all," this time it was TOP who answered as he came towards 833Please respect copyright.PENANA6JGnjIPctE
me with his arms outstretched. "Aren't you also going to give me a hug?"833Please respect copyright.PENANATIBJeN8sto
I rolled my eyes at him,833Please respect copyright.PENANA2pexv50FDQ
feeling rather hilarious that he had asked for a hug. I took a few 833Please respect copyright.PENANAWIk51fPI1K
steps towards him. I couldn't understand why I had a stupid smile on my 833Please respect copyright.PENANAd6dmrLw6fC
face when I hugged him.833Please respect copyright.PENANAM5rqVgpqCM
"I missed you too, TOP," I said after we broke away from each other.833Please respect copyright.PENANAsHHhpH8ywt
"Wait! You missed TOP 833Please respect copyright.PENANAEbd1ezvRko
but not us?" Zoey asked. "I'm so upset. After buying you all those gifts833Please respect copyright.PENANAtFPnu3wwcb
and you didn't miss me? I thought you were my best friend."833Please respect copyright.PENANALfLiX4MtyW
I always loved it when 833Please respect copyright.PENANAnK4ko9IP0R
Zoey acted like a jealous best friend. I turned to look at her with a 833Please respect copyright.PENANAptHsDuewvH
smile and before I could reply, someone else did instead.833Please respect copyright.PENANAB8DX48NLAO
"Don't mind her, Zoey. Looks like she only cares about TOP instead of anyone else."833Please respect copyright.PENANAfwI8aEEm6F
For a moment, that voice833Please respect copyright.PENANA7o9a3dHnvQ
sent a chill down my spine and I didn't even want to turn around. I 833Please respect copyright.PENANA1Qytm0Wv8U
clenched and unclenched my fists. His voice was so full of bitterness it833Please respect copyright.PENANA92oMcgC9Z6
almost sent me into an outrage. I don't know why this time around, I 833Please respect copyright.PENANA1kKJpA7XTm
wasn't afraid or scared of what G-Dragon thought of me. I was tired that833Please respect copyright.PENANAZr5pvn0BAb
he was still acting the same way he had left.833Please respect copyright.PENANAXmWGBhyGeM
I was really confused. I833Please respect copyright.PENANAgi7rzyc9jn
wasn't so clear why he was mad at me. And I hated the fact that I had 833Please respect copyright.PENANAMDMumcFbCE
to think around in circles just to figure out what was wrong with him. 833Please respect copyright.PENANARmUErVmVCi
This time it wasn't the jealousy he had for TOP. It felt way more 833Please respect copyright.PENANA4309Psy3kT
personal and it had to do with me.833Please respect copyright.PENANACYV6vBmUMH
I had no other choice 833Please respect copyright.PENANAyVJkXiIy9z
but to turn around to face him. I made sure that my face didn't reveal 833Please respect copyright.PENANAltpJyhWNHL
how I truly felt. G-Dragon was standing right next to Hyo-rin and 833Please respect copyright.PENANAym2Pwm9wQv
Taeyang. I managed to put up a smile before I could say anything.833Please respect copyright.PENANApuDdQN0F0r
"Hi, GD. How was Paris?"833Please respect copyright.PENANABL3HwYHRrq
By the look on his face,833Please respect copyright.PENANAB2HGL3tAb1
I bet he didn't expect me to greet him. I wasn't going to give him want833Please respect copyright.PENANA6rqAiR16tW
he wanted. If I had answered by talking back at him, things weren't 833Please respect copyright.PENANAMuSmAx1uaS
going to end pretty tonight.833Please respect copyright.PENANAgfxs6zgY0r
"Paris was okay," G-Dragon answered. "I heard you managed to finish the song and played it to everyone today."833Please respect copyright.PENANADGR8KBrCyn
"Ya, I did."833Please respect copyright.PENANAseuqugQDM2
"The song will make you want to dance all day long," said Daesung.833Please respect copyright.PENANAM8RqeH5m55
"Ya, it's pretty awesome," said Seungri.833Please respect copyright.PENANAoPdZ9Fuyk7
"Can't wait to hear it,"833Please respect copyright.PENANAQjRVx1Nfy9
said Daniel as he came to stand beside me and nudge me by the shoulder.833Please respect copyright.PENANAl5Irdkf2rh
"You should give us a preview when we go upstairs."833Please respect copyright.PENANAh5yoWRtGLy
"Anything for you, 833Please respect copyright.PENANAN7XPVmn4dO
guys," I said as I pinched my brother's cheek. "That's how much I care 833Please respect copyright.PENANAgC1yt4yqF8
about you. Unlike some people who think I don't miss them." I turned to 833Please respect copyright.PENANAxmvr6N3SrA
look at Zoey.833Please respect copyright.PENANACHMF2VcYbz
"Don't mind her," said Christine. "You just know how she is."833Please respect copyright.PENANAUfMAh64RMg
"You guys better go and rest," said Taeyang. "We have a busy day tomorrow."833Please respect copyright.PENANAzd7a290deK
"Okay, we better go then," said Seungri. "See you guys tomorrow."833Please respect copyright.PENANAsdxqVKW8oc
After saying bye to each other, we all went our separate ways.833Please respect copyright.PENANAi8qlbaI9Cj
"You know Collins is 833Please respect copyright.PENANABm3o0ZEYiS
going to kill you, right? With all those gifts you came with," I said to833Please respect copyright.PENANAF4QohZ1QSi
Zoey and the others as we were all in the elevator going up to our 833Please respect copyright.PENANAwBy5akDtA9
floor.833Please respect copyright.PENANACTLlzsMxxE
"Don't worry, we also got a few presents for him too," said Mike.833Please respect copyright.PENANAlzyMT0qghu
"And you think bringing him gifts will help?" Lee asked. "You guys are in a lot of trouble."833Please respect copyright.PENANAkPSk6IEhq0
"This won't be the first time," said Zoey. "I mean, we're always in trouble no matter the cause."833Please respect copyright.PENANAZMWFVEp3Bh
I looked at Zoey and wondered why she would say that. Did they have a little problem in Paris? I hope not.833Please respect copyright.PENANA7XWA8EM68k
"We better sort out all 833Please respect copyright.PENANAYlVdMEICJy
the gifts before Collins gets here. You don't want to get on his bad 833Please respect copyright.PENANAXePLaTqytB
side, like you usually do," I said as we got out of the elevator on our 833Please respect copyright.PENANAWUocfUW6Vs
floor.833Please respect copyright.PENANA2SmKJNLFWH
Sorting out all the 833Please respect copyright.PENANA9IHXJpXpNp
packages and gifts took a whole lot of time than I had expected. The 833Please respect copyright.PENANA1I9Y2pcM41
gifts in the hall and also in the lounge were just too many. These guys 833Please respect copyright.PENANAz7qqshuZ7b
had really bought a lot of stuff.833Please respect copyright.PENANAVf8iAW2e6j
The boys had brought a 833Please respect copyright.PENANAjRWGESZcPz
handful of video games, including some expensive designer t-shirts and 833Please respect copyright.PENANArppcnRolDK
jeans from Chanel. Expensive French cologne for men and watches with 833Please respect copyright.PENANAKtzbzuJNtS
expensive designer shoes.833Please respect copyright.PENANAtwDYmRWGyV
As for Zoey and 833Please respect copyright.PENANA8hDRYKzdcC
Christine, well, you know what girls would like to buy if they ever go 833Please respect copyright.PENANAeZBc8ht6XP
to Paris. Designer shoes and dresses. Expensive perfumes and Zoey also 833Please respect copyright.PENANAfUnRVKXxu1
bought along with her some expensive jewellery.833Please respect copyright.PENANAm0ulz6sMvv
"G-Dragon was helping me833Please respect copyright.PENANAEToPGeJl5g
out with picking the jewellery," said Zoey when she showed us a pretty 833Please respect copyright.PENANAS9Oi65dLXA
gold necklace with matching gold earrings.833Please respect copyright.PENANAluwh7E9e3l
"Wow, very pretty," said Lee as she looked at the jewellery.833Please respect copyright.PENANAkMJUBqmwY3
"Ya, very pretty," I said dully, looking at it briefly.833Please respect copyright.PENANAaXQ7FDR5SJ
We were sitting on the 833Please respect copyright.PENANAgt3K5GQuD6
floor in the lounge sorting out the gifts. The ladies were huddled up in833Please respect copyright.PENANACIILzmy1K2
one circle while the boys were next to us also sorting out their own 833Please respect copyright.PENANA9OSp5qBEn6
stuff with Collins' too.833Please respect copyright.PENANAKFqhTibiMW
"We also bought a beautiful necklace for you too," said Christine looking over the boxes behind her. "Where is it?"833Please respect copyright.PENANA6yjmNgxALQ
I was also searching for any jewellery box behind me when I stumbled over a box of Lindtt chocolates.833Please respect copyright.PENANArMavqmiSiN
"Yum, is this for me?" I asked as I got the box and looked greedily at it.833Please respect copyright.PENANAc2w7oKUozy
"Hey! It's for all of us," Zoey warned. "I know you love chocolates, but you don't have to be so selfish."833Please respect copyright.PENANAjFc1JrFHXF
"Since when have I ever been selfish?" I asked, as I opened the box.833Please respect copyright.PENANAnzinYHcyOl
"Okay, you've never been selfish. But when it comes to chocolates...."833Please respect copyright.PENANAB5BnsvNmFM
"'But when it comes to chocolates.....'" I mimicked her. "At least I know how to share."833Please respect copyright.PENANAZEci5nPg2O
I distributed the 833Please respect copyright.PENANA5XH0hzvfOX
chocolates to everyone. Lee was trying on a pair of heels which looked 833Please respect copyright.PENANA5m0LrTMohu
so good on her while Zoey kept on looking for the jewellery box which 833Please respect copyright.PENANARcZLbuVRcW
was meant for me.833Please respect copyright.PENANADQwJgLqOJH
"Where is it?" Zoey muttered to herself as she looked at the other packages on the floor.833Please respect copyright.PENANAxkh0ripkEa
"Don't worry about it," I said as I walked over to her. "We will find it tomorrow. We can't go through all these right now."833Please respect copyright.PENANA7CkHurjHWt
"Ya, you're right," said Zoey. She had a gloomy look on her face. I could tell that she had bought that gift with lots of love.833Please respect copyright.PENANAZsR9gN5cVZ
"But we better pack up some of these stuff," said Lee. "This place is in a mess and Collins might....."833Please respect copyright.PENANAeqGVlYvrJL
When Lee just mentioned his name, the sound of the elevator doors opening was heard. Collins was here!833Please respect copyright.PENANAEkum7Pow98
For a moment, time 833Please respect copyright.PENANAddcO012jj2
seemed to have stopped and all of us in the lounge had stopped along 833Please respect copyright.PENANAYXrN2hXCaZ
with it. We all had our mouths open, looking at each other in shock. We 833Please respect copyright.PENANAue1HTtTXRS
hadn't finished packing up and Collins would freak out when he sees this833Please respect copyright.PENANAm3oEFtdo8j
mess.833Please respect copyright.PENANAtrI9PZjZBR
"Hey, guys I'm here!" came Collins voice in the hall.833Please respect copyright.PENANAm2oNqmabUV
"What are we going to do?" Mike whispered as he looked at me.833Please respect copyright.PENANAtC9vCDfL14
"I don't know," I whispered. This was bad.833Please respect copyright.PENANAlHNccd1lZQ
"Hide," Zoey whispered.833Please respect copyright.PENANASLx1uZEzE5
For me, it kind of felt 833Please respect copyright.PENANArhJzqb7LVQ
pointless to hide. But not for the other four Toxins. Zoey went to the 833Please respect copyright.PENANAztU8Hl9znD
dining table and hid under the table. Christine, Mike and Daniel hid 833Please respect copyright.PENANACYO8xCjanT
behind the couch. Lee and I just stood there, static.833Please respect copyright.PENANAixCPS8Nywy
When Collins came to the833Please respect copyright.PENANAZPlYVUg9KL
lounge, he stopped on his tracks. He was obviously trying to take 833Please respect copyright.PENANAZH4MqBhCvh
everything in. His mouth was slightly open, trying to say something, but833Please respect copyright.PENANA46Mos69Mfg
he just couldn't.833Please respect copyright.PENANAvdf4dUYyyb
"Hey, Collins," I said.833Please respect copyright.PENANA5csZHRNDpN
"What is all this?" Collins asked when as he took a step into the lounge, looking around.833Please respect copyright.PENANAZBGfxCK3Ak
"Christmas came a little early," said Lee, with a smile.833Please respect copyright.PENANADNmy5q4Ez1
Collins looked over at Lee and noticed the heels she was wearing. "Those look nice."833Please respect copyright.PENANAH6HG8J4vPZ
"Thanks."833Please respect copyright.PENANA3WqInWTQ3G
"Where are they?" Collins turned to look at me.833Please respect copyright.PENANAKh107kn7vH
"Who?" I asked.833Please respect copyright.PENANAT9Gjdxm9GH
"You know who I'm talking about."833Please respect copyright.PENANAu5pVL0XNnt
"If you're talking about Santa's little helpers, they left a while ago." I said as I folded my arms.833Please respect copyright.PENANAtOWuWKdZzW
"Santa's little helpers, alright," said Collins as he carefully walked around, avoiding to step on anything.833Please respect copyright.PENANAYYVzOhhxbc
Collins went over to the833Please respect copyright.PENANAGzdY4xbnN7
dining table. There were a few gifts on the table and down on the 833Please respect copyright.PENANA9BcTjImCLo
floor. Collins moved the presents down on the floor and Zoey was beaming833Please respect copyright.PENANAEWcWi4mXqf
up at him.833Please respect copyright.PENANAru5JuJavVF
"Hey, Collins! Looks like you found one elf who stayed behind," said Zoey, beaming up at him.833Please respect copyright.PENANA24Bi7BcrrP
"Where are the others?" Collins asked.833Please respect copyright.PENANAivdUkDfIKg
Christine, Daniel and Mike came out from behind the couch and they all said, "hey, Collins!"833Please respect copyright.PENANADKfVoawwLz
"Guys, what is all this?" Collins said as he looked around the lounge.833Please respect copyright.PENANAYg4xWTrYBg
"Gifts from Paris," said Zoey.833Please respect copyright.PENANAbtvDtJbiZX
"But why did you get all this stuff? I hope you didn't use your credit cards."833Please respect copyright.PENANAPphqld8pay
"Well..." Mike looked down at his feet.833Please respect copyright.PENANAJBzySbVXB8
"Okay, great." Collins looked worn out if not frustrated. "I hope you didn't finish up all the money in your accounts."833Please respect copyright.PENANAYcu6nz2g3T
"I doubt it," said Daniel. "We made sure to be careful with what we were buying."833Please respect copyright.PENANAUGmp6iELzV
"Ya, most of the stuff weren't bought by us, you know? If it came to the designer clothes, it was all from Chanel," said Zoey.833Please respect copyright.PENANAW0dUYZaNLE
"I'll know for myself when I get to see your bank accounts," said Collins.833Please respect copyright.PENANAfqTIGvJty4
"Here, we brought you an833Please respect copyright.PENANAMV8M2IuXlD
expensive watch too," said Daniel as he gave Collins a fancy looking 833Please respect copyright.PENANAjyD1eYpDTx
box. A watch from Rolex. It was definitely expensive.833Please respect copyright.PENANAHdTHrobueU
"That's because you're the best manager ever," said Christine.833Please respect copyright.PENANAxNVEscnsvR
"Thanks," said Collins, 833Please respect copyright.PENANAjO7rbVoLjw
as he looked at the watch, looking rather impressed. "Do me a favour and833Please respect copyright.PENANAljWV0FzCcX
finish clearing up all this. And also bring my gifts to my room. Okay?"833Please respect copyright.PENANApXOewmqieM
Collins smiled at the rest of us and left the lounge.833Please respect copyright.PENANAZfJHLBbWdr
"Looks like he isn't really upset," said Lee. "He would have blown a big fuse already."833Please respect copyright.PENANAniMSc8mFdA
Lee was right. Collins 833Please respect copyright.PENANAlUa7inEli9
wasn't really upset, but that smile he gave us before he left, made me 833Please respect copyright.PENANAwrW51vJyuH
realise something. He might be upset, but I felt like he had already 833Please respect copyright.PENANAgqCN9oiDnk
arranged something to get back at us. And why not that which he and Yang833Please respect copyright.PENANA4dpyHjSGOM
Hyun-suk have planned for us? That for me would be the perfect payback.833Please respect copyright.PENANArpnqaVeizb
That's if it is that bad enough to stun us all.833Please respect copyright.PENANADa0R4sMXFl
"Okay, people, let's get done with this," said Zoey. "It's almost close to midnight."833Please respect copyright.PENANApqrY2qW0es
We continued sorting out833Please respect copyright.PENANAJfj8CG706t
everything and by midnight, the lounge had cleared up a little except a833Please respect copyright.PENANAxsKe6FAabj
few wrappers on the floor which we picked up and threw away in the 833Please respect copyright.PENANAqoIcgc3qul
waste bin which was overflowing with wrappers and empty boxes. And I 833Please respect copyright.PENANA0mtqqGzO6z
planned with the others to sing them the song tomorrow because it was 833Please respect copyright.PENANAylsAeIlreb
already too late and we all needed to rest.833Please respect copyright.PENANACEX2MQuXiY
We hadn't managed to 833Please respect copyright.PENANAjufeMV0ksN
find the jewellery box with my necklace. Zoey thought maybe TOP or GD 833Please respect copyright.PENANAESn4sJ7tRx
had it. I didn't like the thought that GD might have it. Getting it back833Please respect copyright.PENANAQm4Rwihr3c
from him was going to be difficult, looking at our current situation of833Please respect copyright.PENANALrJ7SYclN6
course.833Please respect copyright.PENANARlYQoUv6cH
When we were all done and had retired to our rooms, Zoey quickly pushed me into the room when I was just coming into the room.833Please respect copyright.PENANAPGpYQGa3qk
"Zoey, what's wrong with you?" I asked when she made me sit on the bed.833Please respect copyright.PENANAvcenBW5cWL
Zoey went by the door and checked in the hall if there was anyone. Then she came back in and stood before me.833Please respect copyright.PENANA3AlnUarDJg
"What is it, Zoey?" I asked. "What's so urgent?"833Please respect copyright.PENANA1diSfsCqvs
"Nothing much," said Zoey. "I just needed you in the room."833Please respect copyright.PENANAivY4oogIH7
I looked at her with an 833Please respect copyright.PENANAFyPaHQn0dz
eyebrow raised. Something was definitely up and she looked like she was 833Please respect copyright.PENANASnmOUc5Drq
stuck in between telling me what was bothering her or not.833Please respect copyright.PENANA0PhYFsmeR9
"So, tell me what happened in Paris," I said as I took my Mr Panda into my arms. "How was the fashion show?"833Please respect copyright.PENANAVwnuVPcl4z
"It was fine," Zoey replied as she walked to the closet to get her pyjamas.833Please respect copyright.PENANAkqCmFdFYLu
"Fine?" I looked at 833Please respect copyright.PENANAaqtHJvBXYD
Zoey's back and then I looked at Mr Panda then back at her again. 833Please respect copyright.PENANAgEaGIamVDH
"Knowing you, you would've said it was so exquisite or it was so 833Please respect copyright.PENANAbiZsbfy7Xg
awesome. What's happened to you? This isn't my best friend."833Please respect copyright.PENANAI4M4vM87qX
"Nothing happened," said Zoey as she took out her pyjamas and came back to put them on the bed.833Please respect copyright.PENANANE3zdhHK8I
"Tell me, please!" I 833Please respect copyright.PENANAJNMcdQcy0B
begged. I even made Mr Panda on my lap beg as well putting his tiny cute833Please respect copyright.PENANAZqfqw8yqyX
paws together. "Nothing is not an excuse. You look like you want to 833Please respect copyright.PENANAVNuicNwNuK
tell me something. So tell me!"833Please respect copyright.PENANA8c239EoQ5D
"Keep your voice down!" Zoey snapped at me as she tried to cover my mouth but I slapped her hand away.833Please respect copyright.PENANAjY157cQMqv
"Then what's wrong, Zoey? Did something happen in Paris?"833Please respect copyright.PENANAJZNT7bxtPr
"Well, nothing much happened," said Zoey as she sat down on her bed and looked lost in thought.833Please respect copyright.PENANArauURM2Hxw
"Hello! Earth to Zoey!" I snapped my fingers in front of Zoey's face. "You look so lost. Please tell me what's bothering you."833Please respect copyright.PENANAmXjbN8wKp2
Zoey paused and looked at me for a few seconds. Then she slumped her shoulders and sighed. "Okay, I will tell you."833Please respect copyright.PENANAg6fbCAX3qi
I felt really excited 833Please respect copyright.PENANALPPORN0Imk
like I was about to watch a blockbuster movie. I hugged Mr Panda close 833Please respect copyright.PENANAmqtlYUmm7k
to me. Ready for what's about to drop out of Zoey's mouth.833Please respect copyright.PENANApFcmV3o7fc
"I don't know how I 833Please respect copyright.PENANAX1gCBfMZds
should tell you this," said Zoey as she played with her fingers and was 833Please respect copyright.PENANA38M4aP05w3
staring somewhere else. "But when we got to Paris, we went to the Eiffle833Please respect copyright.PENANAQzdDWkCOim
Tower."833Please respect copyright.PENANAPoMq6PYWbP
"Ya, I saw the picture. 833Please respect copyright.PENANAAXEL23w4Y6
So much for going to Paris without me," I muttered. "You know I have 833Please respect copyright.PENANAt7abAueznh
always wanted to visit the Eiffle Tower."833Please respect copyright.PENANAjHJNi2kyTE
"Aren't you going to let me talk?" Zoey asked.833Please respect copyright.PENANAP0cOYJRrtw
"Okay. Continue." I pressed my chin onto Mr Panda's head.833Please respect copyright.PENANAZGnir1xLn1
"So we got to the Tower and we were having a good time as usual." Zoey paused as she licked her lips. "Then something happened."833Please respect copyright.PENANAkjtaRIC4yx
"What?"833Please respect copyright.PENANAxpaJEEhiTq
"When we got to the top 833Please respect copyright.PENANA9ioHTXKYef
of the Eiffle Tower, we were enjoying the view and I was so caught up 833Please respect copyright.PENANA3BKe9ePa1O
with looking at the bright lights of the city I didn't notice that the 833Please respect copyright.PENANAclRbtFCcei
others had left and it was just GD and I."833Please respect copyright.PENANAQDyZtSvqRu
My eyes grew wide. I 833Please respect copyright.PENANATsM7miasyZ
knew where all this was going already. And before I could let my best 833Please respect copyright.PENANA5gMDQjjRo0
friend share her magical moment herself, I blurted it out.833Please respect copyright.PENANATXv7kznI3E
"You two kissed."833Please respect copyright.PENANA7WQbReCxfI
"What the...! Sam!" Zoey hit the bed with her hands. "How could you!"833Please respect copyright.PENANA18PL2JBPba
"I'm sorry." I hissed and covered my mouth. That wasn't supposed to happen.833Please respect copyright.PENANAWQsH12whGY
"Great! How did you know?" Zoey still looked pissed, but yet surprised.833Please respect copyright.PENANADy3wlgRmH3
"Well, you were in one 833Please respect copyright.PENANAkzY7SYDpA0
of the most romantic cities in the world and you two were left alone, so833Please respect copyright.PENANABRXzDVilZS
for me, that was a perfect romantic scene."833Please respect copyright.PENANAbCA6G2Mtb0
"Smart."833Please respect copyright.PENANAIn6dYF0A17
"Thanks. So, how was it?"833Please respect copyright.PENANADp0fFphgmo
Zoey smiled like a fool,833Please respect copyright.PENANAws2seTUUub
now that the secret was out in the open. "It was so unexpected but yet 833Please respect copyright.PENANAX8qJtNaAQA
it was so magical at the same time."833Please respect copyright.PENANARwp1KBWaHE
I couldn't help but 833Please respect copyright.PENANA9ZxaVm4y6O
smile. It's been a long time since she smiled like that. The last time 833Please respect copyright.PENANA2JXq9bMTAZ
she did, it was back in high school when she was going out with the 833Please respect copyright.PENANAZ5pMF7OcG6
hottest and yet popular guy in school and they kissed in front of 833Please respect copyright.PENANAvcRwYUfwnl
everyone at the prom.833Please respect copyright.PENANAfs4qNLmDFG
"Oh my gosh, Sam," said Zoey rubbing her cheeks. She was blushing. "I can't stop smiling to myself."833Please respect copyright.PENANA2zdZRh0wgM
"So you guys kissed, and then what?"833Please respect copyright.PENANAnUndwhzioX
"Nothing really. We had to pretend in front of the others when we went down the Eiffle Tower like nothing had happened."833Please respect copyright.PENANAfyUoL9j5nV
"And? Anything else? 833Please respect copyright.PENANAXfpqUt05Ab
What happened at the top of the Tower after you kissed?" I leaned 833Please respect copyright.PENANAgttMMPKz8j
forwards with Mr Panda also eager to hear.833Please respect copyright.PENANA62vEQCecv3
"When we were on top of 833Please respect copyright.PENANAjopidqpNH3
the Tower, when we kissed, he told me he liked me and kept on saying the833Please respect copyright.PENANAti0tVDOPXr
most sweetest words ever. How he had always liked me."833Please respect copyright.PENANAs3QDQ1Qt7D
Well that's a bummer. 833Please respect copyright.PENANAyixxp5R40U
But to be honest, I expected it. I remembered he had also said those 833Please respect copyright.PENANAIQhL4kbHSk
words to me too. But that was when he was drunk. Could it be that he 833Please respect copyright.PENANAlwjIASGqnU
really liked Zoey and not me?833Please respect copyright.PENANA8U9yQRgBPQ
I brushed that off. Why 833Please respect copyright.PENANAQ756q8JDJu
should I even care? I knew from the very beginning that GD wasn't in his833Please respect copyright.PENANAifjckSWvzX
right state of mind when he told me he liked me. I didn't really get my833Please respect copyright.PENANAwHKAzZPdrj
hopes up with it.833Please respect copyright.PENANAPQAKIowgEN
"I even told Christine," said Zoey. "I just hope you don't tell Collins."833Please respect copyright.PENANAQOwE5wylSM
"And why should I tell him?" I asked, shrugging my shoulders.833Please respect copyright.PENANAPE5l2TFFkf
"Ya, you're right. And don't tell your brothers. They are going to make fun of me."833Please respect copyright.PENANAQRt8Vmz9yR
"Telling my brothers is one thing I wouldn't do."833Please respect copyright.PENANAaqGykvR15U
"Thanks, Sam."833Please respect copyright.PENANAv6If9QsZn0
"Hey, what are best friends for? We better go to sleep. We might leave for YG tomorrow really early."833Please respect copyright.PENANAe5BRoOM23q
"Okay." Zoey hopped on her bed like a little child and started to change into her pyjamas.833Please respect copyright.PENANAY3yUyOCtTP
I left Mr Panda on the 833Please respect copyright.PENANAcU6tsy9qHK
bed and also went to the closet to get my pyjamas. When I changed, I 833Please respect copyright.PENANAOo2HBLpPHk
quickly went into the bed covers and put Mr Panda right beside me. I had833Please respect copyright.PENANA0Waamo6VYU
gotten used to the stuffed panda being around whenever I slept. I 833Please respect copyright.PENANAeoY1EKbche
looked over at Zoey who was already in her bed covers.833Please respect copyright.PENANAY7KymFg41q
"Good night, Zoey," I said to her with a smile.833Please respect copyright.PENANAjxYBaKHtuK
"Good night," she replied. She turned to the other side to flip the switch beside the bed on the wall and the room went dark.833Please respect copyright.PENANA5lBnT6y04j
I laid my head on the 833Please respect copyright.PENANA5Gn0qX22qn
pillow and just as I closed my eyes, I could hear Zoey giggling to 833Please respect copyright.PENANAAk40mzT2z0
herself. She was obviously texting G-Dragon on her phone and I couldn't 833Please respect copyright.PENANA5itzdm27cI
blame her. She was so happy when she talked to me about kissing him on 833Please respect copyright.PENANA1Rg2dQhq9F
the Eiffle Tower. And it was also probably a good thing that I had never833Please respect copyright.PENANAQruGr0FUcT
told Zoey what happened on Friday when GD came in drunk and told me 833Please respect copyright.PENANA9TorbcqWTo
that he liked me. I could only imagine what the whole scenario would 833Please respect copyright.PENANAaBkAKc0dbd
have been.833Please respect copyright.PENANAjq69VaopN5
Zoey would have only 833Please respect copyright.PENANAgSKoEpNh5r
felt guilty about it and would have confronted GD about playing the two 833Please respect copyright.PENANAJdMY30e8dy
of us around. It wasn't like he kissed me anyway, so maybe I was a bit 833Please respect copyright.PENANAWaMXnVrgdH
on the safe side. But it was still good that I didn't tell her anything.833Please respect copyright.PENANAlAvsjiDH3l
To be honest, I was happy for Zoey. And when I heard her giggling again, I realised that I wouldn't want to hurt her.833Please respect copyright.PENANAqpqsJyr2Fp
I pulled Mr Panda closer833Please respect copyright.PENANAIkBcNPOU0H
and cuddled him. I was soon drifting away into a deep sleep, eager for 833Please respect copyright.PENANAHVd3MjUqZH
what's to come when I woke up in the morning.833Please respect copyright.PENANANkWgDX54Lx
***833Please respect copyright.PENANAW2bJhoUplj
I was given a round of 833Please respect copyright.PENANAv7ryKgBni3
applause when I finished singing the song. I was in the lounge with the 833Please respect copyright.PENANARc7OtRvGUk
Toxins and I stood before them as I sang the song. I didn't have a 833Please respect copyright.PENANAy6ra8HC4FN
guitar with me but I managed to sing it anyway.833Please respect copyright.PENANAbkE21oncaA
"The song is incredible," said Zoey. "I never thought it would be this good."833Please respect copyright.PENANAmX18fO4wkg
"And your Korean is good too," said Christine.833Please respect copyright.PENANAeQKnljzADo
"I can't wait to start working on the song," said Mike.833Please respect copyright.PENANAUeyryzokMN
"Then you better eat 833Please respect copyright.PENANAXvx88LFbZA
your breakfast," said Lee as she came in with the room service bringing 833Please respect copyright.PENANA0smuYhrhgm
in our breakfast. "We have a long day ahead."833Please respect copyright.PENANAziyGwEcbIj
We went over to the dinning table and settled down. We were all having toast for breakfast.833Please respect copyright.PENANAyBAwWXATPF
"I can't wait for us to 833Please respect copyright.PENANAES9Vy8WaVr
go to the studio," said Zoey happily as she jumped excitedly on her seat833Please respect copyright.PENANAaUE4rEIGDJ
beside me. I could only tell why.833Please respect copyright.PENANA12vG2vGJGe
Christine who sat 833Please respect copyright.PENANAY4q4OHHyYR
opposite from Zoey coughed and I could tell that she just coughed out 833Please respect copyright.PENANAoYOTTQli70
G-Dragon's name. Luckily, the boys hadn't even noticed. And by the look 833Please respect copyright.PENANAuBwMAt0hTH
on Lee's face, sitting directly opposite me, she already knew about Zoey833Please respect copyright.PENANAnBVe70uzF0
and G-Dragon.833Please respect copyright.PENANAw0ynFOF9PS
When we were done 833Please respect copyright.PENANA9J8KD380PC
eating, we headed downstairs and as usual, there were paparazzi, 833Please respect copyright.PENANAJe36xDr65H
reporters and fans too. We entered into the SUV and we arrived at YG.833Please respect copyright.PENANAKFfPwxrzz2
"Hey, Sam," Zoey called out to me when we got out of the car. I turned to look at her.833Please respect copyright.PENANALG6EYcmJOf
"What is it, Zoey?"833Please respect copyright.PENANAM2a2cwEbXu
"Do I look okay? I mean, is my hair on point, my make up?"833Please respect copyright.PENANADkYQSmkqVk
Mike growled loudly behind us as he came out of the car with Daniel right behind him. "The drama queen is at it again."833Please respect copyright.PENANAKQT0A4Qbjg
"Can't you just zip up your mouth and let me worry about myself?" Zoey asked, rolling her eyes.833Please respect copyright.PENANA8fiqat9KAP
"That's the problem," 833Please respect copyright.PENANADiQTonxq5L
said Mike as he came to stand in front of Zoey. "Once you start acting 833Please respect copyright.PENANAU8qv9htluL
like this, something is definitely up or you're just trying to impress 833Please respect copyright.PENANA5erPBAtbdE
someone. You've been acting really weird ever since we got to Paris."833Please respect copyright.PENANAVRPCheeMkY
Mike turned away and 833Please respect copyright.PENANAawOAtEJFIv
headed straight for the entrance with Daniel. I could have sworn I saw 833Please respect copyright.PENANAfAhRNiaesL
him smirk before he walked away. Could it be that he might know 833Please respect copyright.PENANACClztOiMWz
something?833Please respect copyright.PENANApN1hIDGkuX
"Don't mind him," said Christine. "You know how these boys like to mock us. Let's go."833Please respect copyright.PENANAzqvqOjBXLA
We agreed with Christine833Please respect copyright.PENANABNrpRmXnrI
and we went into the YG building with Lee and Collins. We got to the 833Please respect copyright.PENANAYw3i4nJvGr
studio and I wasn't expecting the BigBang members to be there before us.833Please respect copyright.PENANAxL6bG3SQZG
Finding them here earlier than us was a bit of a surprise.833Please respect copyright.PENANAeNgllvnCat
"Hey, guys!" Zoey greeted everyone.833Please respect copyright.PENANAWbuIV3YtAW
"Hey, how are you," said G-Dragon as he came and gave her a hug. I bypassed them heading to the couch sitting next to Daesung.833Please respect copyright.PENANAaT2Wv1KZH4
"Hey, are you alright?" Daesung asked.833Please respect copyright.PENANASFsqrCCZlL
"Oh, I'm fine," I answered. "I slept a little late last night since these guys came with so many gifts."833Please respect copyright.PENANAvZ975mtny0
"I also feel like I 833Please respect copyright.PENANA88gdbKRHO0
didn't get enough sleep," said Christine as she came to sit beside me. 833Please respect copyright.PENANACs6TemNcKL
She was obviously trying to avoid the two love birds in the room. The 833Please respect copyright.PENANAZ1mZGh5pBq
two of them seem to be in a deep conversation at the moment.833Please respect copyright.PENANArUu8dtN1jj
"Do you think we should 833Please respect copyright.PENANAaBTDdwByip
start?" Seungri asked as he came to stand by the couch and also noticed 833Please respect copyright.PENANAbARlDGSu2C
how close Zoey and G-Dragon were.833Please respect copyright.PENANARhWedXi7S0
"What's up with them?" Mike asked as he stood in front of me with his arms folded.833Please respect copyright.PENANAsX9bHbWRUI
"Can't you see they are having a conversation?" Christine asked.833Please respect copyright.PENANAyfTi3PycS7
"Well, I think we should start working on the song," said TOP who sat next to Daesung.833Please respect copyright.PENANA3VK19Pkc9F
"I think someone has to tell these guys," said Taeyang. "Sam? May you do the honours?"833Please respect copyright.PENANAu5dFsehRqv
I looked over at Taeyang who sat at the far end of the couch with my eyebrow raised.833Please respect copyright.PENANA0xrZp9ar9o
"You do it," I said. "Why should I?"833Please respect copyright.PENANA1uI4sUrKh1
"Because everyone listens to you," said Daniel.833Please respect copyright.PENANAWts0SbTaUC
Everyone around me shook their heads. I sighed.833Please respect copyright.PENANAkpjP8IQRv8
I stood up from the 833Please respect copyright.PENANAl3FlNT2WG2
couch and I went over to the multi track console where I had left my 833Please respect copyright.PENANA4NUhFuHebn
notebook yesterday. Zoey and G-Dragon were still indulged in their 833Please respect copyright.PENANAuPTjNkrLVZ
conversation.833Please respect copyright.PENANAmwRS7mpIio
When I went back, I 833Please respect copyright.PENANAI9Uzrhkgmb
signalled to the others who were standing to sit down. When everyone on 833Please respect copyright.PENANAiUQjGtYhc2
the couch was settled, I cleared my throat so loud, hopeful that I 833Please respect copyright.PENANAKjnexrMIbN
caught Zoey and G-Dragon's attention.833Please respect copyright.PENANAAEXuuNFP8T
"Ahem! So, we have to agree on who will sing the first verse," I said as I looked at the notebook.833Please respect copyright.PENANAITxFFISclF
"I was thinking, G-Dragon and Zoey could start," said Daniel, as loud as he could.833Please respect copyright.PENANA4nI1bgipfj
"That's not really a bad idea." I nodded my head.833Please respect copyright.PENANAJVSYojn0Ex
"Hey, what's going on?" Zoey asked as she and G-Dragon turned to look at us.833Please respect copyright.PENANAOoeWrAVt9m
"Oh, you guys better come here because we're dividing the lyrics amongst ourselves," I said as I turned to look at the two.833Please respect copyright.PENANAIXdXwfXBrB
"You should have told us," said G-Dragon.833Please respect copyright.PENANAeIcxGZ4LRG
"Well, I didn't want to disturb you two. You looked really busy. And the two of you will be doing the first verse."833Please respect copyright.PENANApugqbxjvfQ
G-Dragon gave me a weird833Please respect copyright.PENANAoJpeByUqU5
look and all I could do was smirk at him. My plan had worked to get 833Please respect copyright.PENANAaaIpX3o3T6
their attention. I went back to looking at the lyrics while he and Zoey 833Please respect copyright.PENANAmMnBzQ2Ydf
took their place on the couch.833Please respect copyright.PENANA0Qtm8jsAQM
"Christine and Daesung, I833Please respect copyright.PENANACSPhACoUs7
think one of you could sing the bridge after the first verse and then 833Please respect copyright.PENANAmQtBpm5yD8
the other on the second bridge after the second verse," I suggested.833Please respect copyright.PENANAvJEINEfRRn
"Then you and I will sing the chorus," said Taeyang.833Please respect copyright.PENANAuebumiyLfg
"Ya, we will sing the 833Please respect copyright.PENANAyhco5uHmQr
chorus," I said. "And Seungri and Daniel will sing the last verse. So, 833Please respect copyright.PENANAqBQwxyXjZl
now that we are done with all this, let me just give you guys a preview 833Please respect copyright.PENANAp66wXTixTN
of the song and how its supposed to be laid out. I hope the music 833Please respect copyright.PENANAFMjj72GVd0
producer has the lyrics printed out."833Please respect copyright.PENANAbE32yO3Th8
"He brought in the printed lyrics for each of us this morning," said TOP, his eyes on the table behind me.833Please respect copyright.PENANAJA66WHHCvh
I looked behind me on the small table. I hadn't noticed the papers. I took them and gave each member a sheet.833Please respect copyright.PENANAQ7TW4NkhCb
Afterwards, I sang out the song so that everyone can have a layout on how it should be sung.833Please respect copyright.PENANAhXHvxWxA0F
Then we all went over 833Please respect copyright.PENANAt94MhuWD92
the console so that everyone could listen to the instrumental the music 833Please respect copyright.PENANAgzkHRRPzj2
producer had made with me and the others yesterday.833Please respect copyright.PENANAbf1zEDQUlq
"So, what do you think of the instrumental?" I asked after making them listen.833Please respect copyright.PENANA2ascjonuIT
"So catchy," said Daniel. "I like it."833Please respect copyright.PENANAioq1mUrSxu
"Me too," said TOP.833Please respect copyright.PENANAanUf9xnavJ
"Then, let's get started," said Daesung.833Please respect copyright.PENANA9EC3rma2v5
"Wait, a minute," said G-Dragon and everyone turned to look at him.833Please respect copyright.PENANAfoQIZRiW5j
I didn't look up at him 833Please respect copyright.PENANAf0nAUVgjle
though since I was the one seated at the console and everyone else stood833Please respect copyright.PENANAtEuGpanZmu
behind and beside me. All I did was just sit there and rub my forehead.833Please respect copyright.PENANAt7Kw9ddjf4
Something told me he was going to say something I wasn't ready to hear.833Please respect copyright.PENANAKQZXlKzL7N
"What's wrong, GD?" Christine asked. "Is there something wrong?"833Please respect copyright.PENANAiAoW7wNNC1
I started to relax my 833Please respect copyright.PENANAz0sJ9w2OAR
temples with my fingers and my elbows leaning on the console. G-Dragon 833Please respect copyright.PENANA8RhJT5rR04
had paused for a while and I felt impatient.833Please respect copyright.PENANAyoY1udAGqA
"The instrumental is okay and all, but I feel there is something missing."833Please respect copyright.PENANAT4co6uyd6Q
"What's missing?" I asked as I turned around on the chair to look at G-Dragon.833Please respect copyright.PENANABfskZFXdD6
G-Dragon came to sit 833Please respect copyright.PENANAP5hPh6fMc8
next to the chair beside me and I wondered what was running in his mind.833Please respect copyright.PENANALeHxLFVf4c
The instrumental was just fine and it's not like we hadn't gone through833Please respect copyright.PENANAKHvZiGQWZm
it with the music producer yesterday. I wondered what had gotten into 833Please respect copyright.PENANAqBGFUBgxVV
him now. Everyone liked it. But what was wrong with it for him?833Please respect copyright.PENANAFRDU3Rbyu1
"I'll have to listen to this for a while and I'll tell what I think," said G-Dragon.833Please respect copyright.PENANAeLZM2k39Ma
"Okay, suit yourself," I said as I backed away from the console dragging the chair behind me. I stood up.833Please respect copyright.PENANATErUjaBBYZ
G-Dragon got the headphones and at the same time, the music producer came in the room.833Please respect copyright.PENANAmf71Gkbr2Y
"So, should we start putting in the lyrics into the song?" the music producer asked.833Please respect copyright.PENANApRHA6PQWGY
"We can't because G-Dragon here thinks the tune and melodies need a little changing," I said.833Please respect copyright.PENANAG6KfdaitDx
"Really?" the music producer asked.833Please respect copyright.PENANA7yFb7Uqgy8
"Well, that's what he said," said Taeyang. "It all seems fine to me. I also don't see why it needs changing."833Please respect copyright.PENANAaGEHaRp3ED
"Let's just see what he is going to come up with," I said as I folded my arms.833Please respect copyright.PENANANHDKunTvO5
"Give him a chance, 833Please respect copyright.PENANAuR4h9zdNgF
Sam," said Zoey as she sat next to G-Dragon who kept on listening to the833Please respect copyright.PENANASiHuGflkib
instrumental through the headphones. She also got another pair of 833Please respect copyright.PENANA6o7aE24fsR
headphones and put them on.833Please respect copyright.PENANAql57JzBh2T
"Okay, this is 833Please respect copyright.PENANASrR6KwZGPP
confusing," said the music producer looking at all of us. "Let me also 833Please respect copyright.PENANAEXUqlckx0z
join them and see what needs some changing."833Please respect copyright.PENANAS7yoT0Y7uO
I nodded and the music producer went over to join G-Dragon and Zoey.833Please respect copyright.PENANAH5zZM4MjE4
"So what should we do now?" Seungri asked.833Please respect copyright.PENANA7PMohhfgST
"Chill, I guess," said Mike.833Please respect copyright.PENANAOwi8QWBRQf
The others looked at me 833Please respect copyright.PENANAGJ5o1DCPZV
when I didn't say a word. They were all looking at me obviously thinking833Please respect copyright.PENANANmslx12Wi7
I would come up with a better solution to all this just to pass time.833Please respect copyright.PENANAF3gqa4EXvo
"To be honest, I don't know what we should do," I replied, shrugging my shoulders.833Please respect copyright.PENANASZx0UOQ7sq
"Why can't we just go through the song?" TOP asked.833Please respect copyright.PENANA9TDrlD053F
"That's going to be a 833Please respect copyright.PENANAkHFd4cYhVt
problem." I rubbed the back of my neck. "The tune might change a little 833Please respect copyright.PENANApC1rPoKXLH
now that GD thinks it needs a little changing."833Please respect copyright.PENANAazkIS29m4S
"I doubt it," said Taeyang shaking his head. "We can still go through it. I don't think he can change the entire tune."833Please respect copyright.PENANAfaeEELGWL9
Something told me he might but I didn't want to scare anyone so I kept that thought to myself.833Please respect copyright.PENANAaalOgxPcyI
"Okay let's go through the song," I said as everyone nodded their heads and sat on the couch and I went over to get the guitar.833Please respect copyright.PENANAaFLp72tSM4
I looked over at Zoey 833Please respect copyright.PENANA8O7nGgC8Gn
and G-Dragon. I wondered if they would really change everything. I tried833Please respect copyright.PENANAe3nEZhamDe
to ignore the thought, and focused on the song.833Please respect copyright.PENANA6ttFVMtnwi
I put a stool in front 833Please respect copyright.PENANAjaSMRiDzna
of the others and I sat on it like I had yesterday. With the guitar in 833Please respect copyright.PENANA7HsSezkorH
my hands, I started to play and I sang the song. After I sang it, 833Please respect copyright.PENANACgYDmcjmOk
everyone admitted that the song was good and that made me realise about 833Please respect copyright.PENANAp0sCF4LjWY
what G-Dragon was up to. I tried not to look worried in front of the 833Please respect copyright.PENANAoBjRTjAPF3
others.833Please respect copyright.PENANA61xCUQbpOW
"Now, that we know how the song is supposed to flow, let's all sing out our parts," I said. Everyone agreed.833Please respect copyright.PENANA1LAqnOSRJs
Taeyang and I sung the 833Please respect copyright.PENANAN5Wup0vN6y
first verse since G-Dragon and Zoey were busy. Then Christine sung the 833Please respect copyright.PENANAzLNbqIKvNA
bridge, Taeyang and I sung the chorus. From that point, the song sounded833Please respect copyright.PENANAVb631CCzGo
great and everyone cheered.833Please respect copyright.PENANA5349ToLSlh
"Wow, guys, this sounds awesome," said TOP.833Please respect copyright.PENANAyeN8p7NxIT
"Mind blowing if you ask me," said Mike. "I can't wait for the second verse."833Please respect copyright.PENANArrMGzMI6Gw
"Let's give it a go then," I said and I started to play the guitar.833Please respect copyright.PENANAT76jAnDeQW
TOP started to rap the 833Please respect copyright.PENANAT6pnlicUEu
second verse and then Mike followed suit. It was going on great. And 833Please respect copyright.PENANAmkC7QZxPzd
while I played and the guys rapped everyone else on the couch was moving833Please respect copyright.PENANAq9CiHUVlkt
to the flow of the tune. I smiled. Everyone was having a good time.833Please respect copyright.PENANAn3y7urqKih
Daesung sung the bridge and then Taeyang and I sung the chorus again. This time even Christine joined in.833Please respect copyright.PENANAFfb4p1Pjii
"I'm impressed," I said. "You guys really did well on the second verse."833Please respect copyright.PENANAUoEwzhB1pV
"Come on, now," said Seungri. "Daniel and I want to sing our part."833Please respect copyright.PENANAqDOytTwIjp
"Okay, okay." I looked at Seungri with my hand raised to calm him down. "Before you eat me alive."833Please respect copyright.PENANA2GZRrQ42oB
Daniel and Seungri sung 833Please respect copyright.PENANASTWq2axttQ
the third verse beautifully, and coming to the bridge, Daesung and 833Please respect copyright.PENANA5wXZ2VuNZa
Christine sung the bridge together. Taeyang and I sung the chorus. In 833Please respect copyright.PENANAn3Z2wY27lk
the end we all sang the chorus together. When we were done, everyone 833Please respect copyright.PENANAq3jkqWolP5
clapped for themselves and cheered.833Please respect copyright.PENANAvV1Bv1a5WO
"That was lovely guys," I said as I smiled at the others.833Please respect copyright.PENANA5MhKcLRCio
"That sounds really good," came Yang Hyun-suk's voice behind me.833Please respect copyright.PENANAcLuSSzE3G9
I almost fell off the 833Please respect copyright.PENANAU3aP4D5kDN
stool when I heard his voice. I was so caught up with the song that I 833Please respect copyright.PENANAu9Gyl47hBG
hadn't noticed Yang Hyun-suk come in the room. By the look on the 833Please respect copyright.PENANAogPSZdSXOE
other's faces, they hadn't noticed him either.833Please respect copyright.PENANA1ImdpzBBVB
We all stood and bowed our heads as Yang Hyun-suk came closer to us.833Please respect copyright.PENANAbvGH7N3OKF
"I have to say, you all 833Please respect copyright.PENANAkHFtH0TS8D
sounded really good. The song is just perfect," said Yang Hyun-suk with a833Please respect copyright.PENANAeIb1CxtTf7
smile. "Keep up the good work."833Please respect copyright.PENANAAP6wrAMiof
"Thank you," we all replied at the same time.833Please respect copyright.PENANAOp21P9bFSM
"You're supposed to be in the live room recording the song," said Yang Hyun-suk. "Why aren't you doing so?"833Please respect copyright.PENANAhZJuzvMPYh
No one said anything. We833Please respect copyright.PENANAHitIM4C4A1
all looked at each other expecting the other to say something. Most 833Please respect copyright.PENANAxx1TwVNGVq
eyes were on me though. I always hated it when I had to do all the 833Please respect copyright.PENANAIUd5yGl4Gd
talking.833Please respect copyright.PENANAd60qw4outL
"Umm, G-Dragon wanted to add a few things to the instrumental," I said, not looking at the manager in the eye.833Please respect copyright.PENANAeU3qx6rsyg
"Add a few things or change things?" Yang Hyun-suk asked, sternly.833Please respect copyright.PENANACoO9gCIaqt
That, I couldn't answer.833Please respect copyright.PENANACvzoNhRCgn
Looked like he also thought like I did. The only way to find out was to833Please respect copyright.PENANAmibk83iUNr
listen to the instrumental ourselves.833Please respect copyright.PENANA12I1HhXdFP
"He just said something was missing," said Taeyang.833Please respect copyright.PENANAsXkrFkmVKJ
"Then where is he then? Why isn't he here?" Yang Hyun-suk asked.833Please respect copyright.PENANALIJYJUjzX4
"He's right-" I turned around to the console. He and Zoey weren't there.833Please respect copyright.PENANAepvucepqs0
"They were here a while ago," I said as I pointed at the audio machines and the multi track console.833Please respect copyright.PENANAN7onHK5yD2
"They?" Yang Hyun-suk asked.833Please respect copyright.PENANACVkDQVJSvY
"G-Dragon, Zoey and the music producer."833Please respect copyright.PENANAkLITzyNw8S
The manager shook his head. He was obviously annoyed with all this.833Please respect copyright.PENANA47qOpLxnEO
"I want them back here 833Please respect copyright.PENANAB83PHL7Gjo
right now," said Yang Hyun-suk. "I'll back in thirty minutes and if I 833Please respect copyright.PENANAaUVd5fqiE1
don't find them here, you better have a good answer for all of this."833Please respect copyright.PENANAwBnnc5eIry
I gulped as I felt the 833Please respect copyright.PENANAZC40oICNCD
air in the room change. He was furious all right. He was more furious 833Please respect copyright.PENANAffPgA9GcWY
because he feared that G-Dragon might change everything with the song. 833Please respect copyright.PENANAJtO8kncVAa
And we only had thirty minutes to find them or else we were toast.833Please respect copyright.PENANARNx98CsuDD
No one said anything 833Please respect copyright.PENANARJzp04YhqF
when Yang Hyun-suk left the studio. And this time, I was furious. I 833Please respect copyright.PENANAp4M9Zg7Blk
looked at the others and it looked like I wasn't the only one.833Please respect copyright.PENANAqHgFer3XJK
"Where could they have 833Please respect copyright.PENANAkvPWE81mFN
gone all of the sudden?" Christine asked, her voice sounded like it was 833Please respect copyright.PENANAovSTTvZG3k
full of rage. "They were there the last time I checked."833Please respect copyright.PENANAUYglcW8ELn
"They couldn't have gone far," said Daesung. "They must have been gone a few minutes."833Please respect copyright.PENANAUSaroHLEzO
"Maybe they went out for lunch," said Mike as he looked at his wrist watch. "It's almost close to lunch time."833Please respect copyright.PENANAQPQx50k7HT
"They should have told us though," said Taeyang.833Please respect copyright.PENANApNCDHUenC2
"Then we better start 833Please respect copyright.PENANAD6VYKfLUl8
looking," I said. "I just hope they aren't out of the building or else 833Please respect copyright.PENANAnjRvpvRpFg
looking for them will be difficult."833Please respect copyright.PENANAmnrdPpQwgp
We all agreed to split 833Please respect copyright.PENANAG22c7zi5QJ
up and look for them given the little time we had. I went with Christine833Please respect copyright.PENANAMmucWO9zV4
and TOP looking around the other studio rooms, Mike and Daniel went 833Please respect copyright.PENANAmKetyY6y9a
over to the dance studios. Taeyang, Seungri and Daesung went upstairs.833Please respect copyright.PENANAEgprbasqWB
All the studio rooms 833Please respect copyright.PENANAjUMbjWuoK8
were empty, so I went with Christine and TOP downstairs and asked the 833Please respect copyright.PENANA8h9LV4xi1R
receptionist if she saw Zoey and G-Dragon go out.833Please respect copyright.PENANAgxYdFtqtNu
"The two of them walked out just a while ago," the receptionist answered.833Please respect copyright.PENANAs586QsuK8k
I frowned and turned away from the receptionist while Christine asked, "how long ago was it?"833Please respect copyright.PENANArSJQCVG9oy
"Almost fifteen minutes."833Please respect copyright.PENANAv019LAdf8X
"Try and call them, will you?" I asked TOP.833Please respect copyright.PENANAPOOvLbXep8
He nodded and pulled out833Please respect copyright.PENANAzrryFXMGuo
his phone. At the same time, the elevator doors opened and my brothers 833Please respect copyright.PENANANQXOG918Vh
walked out of it and came towards us.833Please respect copyright.PENANAnIN7v6IIPR
"Anything?" Daniel asked.833Please respect copyright.PENANA5bCMAOKL2I
"They left the building," I answered with my hands on my hips. I looked over at TOP. "Have they picked up?"833Please respect copyright.PENANAr3oGD2PZFm
"GD's phone keeps ringing and he isn't picking up," said TOP, with his phone on his ear.833Please respect copyright.PENANAwq8AZX2qXN
"Let me try to call, Zoey," said Christine pulling out her phone.833Please respect copyright.PENANAieGHo5Ohe3
I looked at the time on my watch. We only had fifteen minutes and Yang Hyun-suk was going to kill us all if we didn't find them.833Please respect copyright.PENANAi3kBZjAnn5
"She isn't picking up either," said Christine.833Please respect copyright.PENANAqkrTkWyMIX
"Great, these guys are going to get us into trouble," said Mike as he scratched his head.833Please respect copyright.PENANA2QfsPxh9qp
"If they just went for lunch they are bound to show up," said TOP.833Please respect copyright.PENANA6caVFqqHyA
"Should we split up and look for them around town?" Daniel asked.833Please respect copyright.PENANANAsQRRtK3z
"Splitting up will be risky now that Yang Hyun-suk is on our necks," said Christine.833Please respect copyright.PENANAQiK5RNCKQI
I hadn't said a word 833Please respect copyright.PENANAvy9L5iyDYN
when the elevator doors opened and Daesung came out. He had a really 833Please respect copyright.PENANAK5GK8pSvdQ
worried look on his face. He rushed up to us and I also couldn't help 833Please respect copyright.PENANAuqPxGEeplB
but worry.833Please respect copyright.PENANAwLzvbdwHvn
"What is it, Daesung?" I asked. "Is there something wrong?"833Please respect copyright.PENANACFTKXcAlw5
"We just met with the music producer upstairs," said Daesung. He shook his head. "You're not going to like this."833Please respect copyright.PENANAA9BZM1o2fm
Daesung motioned his 833Please respect copyright.PENANADrouyjZ3BJ
head towards the elevator. We followed him and we found ourselves back 833Please respect copyright.PENANAQE40xe1xhq
at the studio. Taeyang and Seungri were with the music producer.833Please respect copyright.PENANAOdym2zca8A
"Please tell me G-Dragon didn't just change the entire tune for the song?" I asked when we got in the studio.833Please respect copyright.PENANAuiXDZZs6qW
Taeyang and the music 833Please respect copyright.PENANAO9gDKp3S3j
producer looked at each other with blank looks on their faces then 833Please respect copyright.PENANAb5UBiwah2Y
looked back at me. Seungri was looking at me the whole time. I was so 833Please respect copyright.PENANAbJMFv72Uyw
preoccupied in my mind, thinking of the worst, that I felt so confused 833Please respect copyright.PENANAXMQiK63eYA
and angry at the same time.833Please respect copyright.PENANADivYUGUdrw
"It's best if you hear it for yourself," said Daesung.833Please respect copyright.PENANAbzqvZlTUgr
I looked over at Daesung833Please respect copyright.PENANAANoEQf1rr0
and made my way to the console where the music producer had his laptop 833Please respect copyright.PENANAUCglNMCz52
open for me. I sat down and preparing myself for the worst, I pressed 833Please respect copyright.PENANA7TbsYR064K
the play button.833Please respect copyright.PENANA7qO03UtCcT
***833Please respect copyright.PENANAnB3GQbF65j
"Where are they?" came Yang Hyun-suk's voice from the door.833Please respect copyright.PENANAE6Mz3CggTq
I came crushing back 833Please respect copyright.PENANAliam9EQPr9
down to reality by the harsh sound of the manager's voice. I was on the 833Please respect copyright.PENANAXXNKG2EVrE
couch with the rest of the others and I had been brooding for a while.833Please respect copyright.PENANARTs2Arlprg
I had so many mixed 833Please respect copyright.PENANAFcsLtzeHZI
feelings inside after listening to the instrumental G-Dragon had made. 833Please respect copyright.PENANAuYeheu0bKR
He had completely changed everything and that made me so upset. After 833Please respect copyright.PENANA7kfDST4leZ
all the work I had put in with the others yesterday and this is what I 833Please respect copyright.PENANAkUGX8rMmCe
get in return? I was speechless. So were the others.833Please respect copyright.PENANAQsi9IhRs63
I could tell that the 833Please respect copyright.PENANAhK8WjSX0HM
others were as confused and wondering why G-Dragon had done all this. 833Please respect copyright.PENANAAacyv5jA8x
But I was confused with a mixture of rage. I worked so hard on that 833Please respect copyright.PENANAwIJsS8NXbc
track and I felt everything just went down the drain.833Please respect copyright.PENANAB25rbGkYSX
"Isn't anyone going to answer me?" Yang Hyun-suk asked.833Please respect copyright.PENANAZO4kxfg6VY
"They aren't here," Daniel answered.833Please respect copyright.PENANAcgRT1nZs8l
"It looks like they had gone out for lunch," said Taeyang.833Please respect copyright.PENANAzaSx1MVVs4
"They went out without taking you guys along?"833Please respect copyright.PENANAH7TvdiGSlY
I folded my arms and 833Please respect copyright.PENANAAW3Wu9nM9y
huffed. It looked like they did, alright. And if they made sure as to 833Please respect copyright.PENANAUswqYcUsk2
come back here, I was going to skin them alive.833Please respect copyright.PENANAf4oLJH6vF1
"Maybe they must have gone to order us some lunch as well," said Christine.833Please respect copyright.PENANAFcH3E5xe2X
"Well, they are taking a lot of time to get here," said Yang Hyun-suk. "What about the instrumental? Did they change anything?"833Please respect copyright.PENANAGpEsICVDij
I could feel Christine who sat next to me stiffen by the question and I could imagine the others stiffen too.833Please respect copyright.PENANAeKgMGpWzzz
"Well...eh," Mike started to talk but I intervened.833Please respect copyright.PENANA4e4f5dKz2i
"No, we haven't heard it yet."833Please respect copyright.PENANAbyzLT0tEnW
I could feel the others 833Please respect copyright.PENANAvNf7yVVsLX
turn to me with weird looks on their faces. I knew lying wasn't the 833Please respect copyright.PENANAQJPrR4VpBT
right thing to do at this moment, but the music producer's laptop wasn't833Please respect copyright.PENANAGuxuqUv142
here and I had the USB drive where the instrumental was. And besides, 833Please respect copyright.PENANAHWsfSlqZY1
Yang Hyun-suk was going to be furious. I had to know what the heck was 833Please respect copyright.PENANAh1jpP8JQet
going on in G-Dragon's mind before telling our managers anything.833Please respect copyright.PENANAZaxMnWLUZA
"Oh, hopefully they haven't changed anything," said Yang Hyun-suk. "Call me when they get here."833Please respect copyright.PENANAbxpOBFgyOm
"Okay." I nodded my head.833Please respect copyright.PENANAbj3gHFPqlO
When Yang Hyun-suk left,833Please respect copyright.PENANAoMkh1oKNo0
Seungri came over to me in a quick flash. He scared me by his sudden 833Please respect copyright.PENANAZqEQUcXkeV
approach. He looked down on me with a look on his face.833Please respect copyright.PENANAk8dyMlrHL8
"What did you just do?" Seungri asked. His voice almost turned into a shriek.833Please respect copyright.PENANA2jcUVJQQf4
"You know what I did," I answered, my arms still remained folded as I looked up at him. "I lied."833Please respect copyright.PENANAaJmAmORVql
"But why?" Christine turned to look at me fully in the face. "We're going to get into serious trouble."833Please respect copyright.PENANANCcbh9pG67
"Not until I hear what 833Please respect copyright.PENANANc22Hb3cUP
GD has to say." I looked at Christine and I could tell on her face that I833Please respect copyright.PENANAFljUZMvuNX
sounded a bit harsh towards her. I closed my eyes and took a breath, 833Please respect copyright.PENANAiOYZRssf39
trying to calm down.833Please respect copyright.PENANAKF13DamoQu
"Sorry, I didn't mean to sound harsh," I said as I looked at her.833Please respect copyright.PENANAiOlswLnEoo
"I know. But you shouldn't have lied, Sam."833Please respect copyright.PENANAsMHPd8JVqj
"So that we could get 833Please respect copyright.PENANAwKpnx10r9d
Zoey and G-Dragon into trouble? The reason why I did this is because I 833Please respect copyright.PENANAV7qPtHAyd9
want to know for myself why GD changed everything. If we told Yang 833Please respect copyright.PENANACxhpn7sxLG
Hyun-suk, I wouldn't have known for myself."833Please respect copyright.PENANAEMNGH0H9Cy
"I agree with Sam," said833Please respect copyright.PENANAXmb8j5lyBs
TOP. "We the group members have to know what's going on first. Getting 833Please respect copyright.PENANA726bwgHA3W
Yang Hyun-suk angry won't be good for all of us and you know it."833Please respect copyright.PENANAPhkcpUeqRg
"So we just sit here and wait for them?" Mike asked.833Please respect copyright.PENANA9ofMhdHc3V
"Do we have a choice?" I asked as I looked out the window.833Please respect copyright.PENANAnmDDtvZJLR
The rest of the 833Please respect copyright.PENANAGIGLHXMyLo
afternoon was quiet and boring. I was just on the couch looking out the 833Please respect copyright.PENANARhA30HckUe
window, while the others were now on the floor sitting in a circle 833Please respect copyright.PENANADaGoZW7Jgt
playing cards.833Please respect copyright.PENANAs158fQ499q
I was leaning my chin on833Please respect copyright.PENANAlWPnhmtrE7
the armchair and my legs were up on the couch. I sighed sadly. I still 833Please respect copyright.PENANAI4vGbN3D6e
felt so bad about the song and I wondered why all this was happening, 833Please respect copyright.PENANAouEmElw808
especially to me.833Please respect copyright.PENANAFKXlQ0MgFy
Did he do all this because of what happened with TOP the other day?833Please respect copyright.PENANAJohtAP25E7
I suddenly sat upright 833Please respect copyright.PENANAaXd8gxdbGV
when I realised something. Hadn't he told Zoey that he liked her? If he 833Please respect copyright.PENANAEW4z6WBgAi
really did like Zoey from the beginning, then why was he acting like a 833Please respect copyright.PENANAw7GHhxmcg0
jealous prick the other day? Was he trying to get back at me not just by833Please respect copyright.PENANASpr6DO4l96
ruining the track but also by hanging out with Zoey?833Please respect copyright.PENANAPY9dOdeuRc
"Hey, Sam, are you okay?" Daesung asked as he looked at me. "You look like you have seen a ghost."833Please respect copyright.PENANAIpyGbutzSg
"I...eh.." I tucked a strand of hair behind my ear. "Nothing. Just realised something."833Please respect copyright.PENANA588nlXyBo0
"That you're hungry," said Seungri, looking at his cards in his hands. "I'm also hungry."833Please respect copyright.PENANAB2ncnOEp9U
"But we can't go out and order lunch," said Mike. "I feel Yang Hyun-suk's eyes are everywhere now apart from here."833Please respect copyright.PENANAhIJ5To9MR3
"Maybe we can just order833Please respect copyright.PENANAbgm97WSuKR
a pizza and tell the receptionist to come here without raising any 833Please respect copyright.PENANA6Q3NtQd7HA
suspicion to Yang Hyun-suk," said Daniel.833Please respect copyright.PENANA2VKjDAYurB
"Good idea," said TOP. "Let me tell her right now." He pulled out his phone and just when he was about to call, Lee came in.833Please respect copyright.PENANAXH3sJAI0In
"Hey, guys," said Lee carrying three boxes of pizza in her hands.833Please respect copyright.PENANAleVVpBXRnf
"Finally, food!" Christine exclaimed as she got up from the floor and ran over to Lee to help with the boxes.833Please respect copyright.PENANAHvpLiZ84cD
"I heard that Zoey and 833Please respect copyright.PENANAaAvHjcn8Zm
G-Dragon had left," said Lee. "Yang Hyun-suk told me and he is watching 833Please respect copyright.PENANAVhHlTgQkJq
out of his office window for them like a hawk."833Please respect copyright.PENANAVI2XPa4tkP
"I knew it," said Mike. "I knew he was watching."833Please respect copyright.PENANAF7eUP6cwD1
"Then it's a good thing 833Please respect copyright.PENANAdhMJBaXbpW
Sam texted me a while ago," said Lee. "I had to find a way to sneak in 833Please respect copyright.PENANAhKtIjLkaGg
the pizza. That's why I took forever to get here."833Please respect copyright.PENANAwYOkI3PldH
Daniel came over to hug me. "Thanks, sis. I don't know what we would have done without you. I was starving."833Please respect copyright.PENANApPhcKawBln
"Ya, I know," I said. "We better eat quickly before the managers get here."833Please respect copyright.PENANAYjV4UuH1Yi
Everyone soon dropped 833Please respect copyright.PENANABuq1ZYHKRp
their cards and went over to the table started to dig in as soon as one 833Please respect copyright.PENANArMEmndiWjJ
of the pizza boxes was laid on the table and Lee opened it.833Please respect copyright.PENANAEaUbQXvMu8
I had never eaten pizza 833Please respect copyright.PENANANbqLTsnjB4
so fast and it had never tasted so good in my mouth. Maybe it's because 833Please respect copyright.PENANATSpHOlyarn
despite all the anger bottled up inside me, I was as hungry as hell.833Please respect copyright.PENANADvLT4lilHY
We were done finishing 833Please respect copyright.PENANAs5dqjvAd3c
the second box of pizza when Lee asked, "I heard G-Dragon changed the 833Please respect copyright.PENANAc2T9bqUZPJ
instrumental for the song, is that true?"833Please respect copyright.PENANA5UOOXKYxRK
"Well, ya," I said with my mouth full of pizza. The pizza was so good.833Please respect copyright.PENANAzdQj8I6KFs
"He changed it for real?" Lee sounded surprised. "But Yang Hyun-suk said you haven't heard it yet."833Please respect copyright.PENANAemkeNHGl84
We were huddled up on 833Please respect copyright.PENANAcTEEZCGXh7
the floor around the table eating our pizza and we had soon stopped 833Please respect copyright.PENANAHyk31dmhvy
eating and looked at Lee who was seated on the couch.833Please respect copyright.PENANAoDLKuIRv7f
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Lee asked.833Please respect copyright.PENANAlCExHOH673
"We actually lied," said Taeyang.833Please respect copyright.PENANAkVSxqJ4owW
"You lied? About what?"833Please respect copyright.PENANAYIPvLpumKj
"I told the manager that we hadn't heard the instrumental," I said.833Please respect copyright.PENANAAQBqxRW8Vm
"But why?"833Please respect copyright.PENANA0wALEWFTpu
"Because, I had no choice. I want to know why GD did this. It's best we know and see how we can move forward."833Please respect copyright.PENANAV7VOzFMNq7
I finished my slice of pizza and licked my fingers when Lee asked, "don't you think he just did that to get back at you, Sam?"833Please respect copyright.PENANANcH9BaaZ2H
I didn't expect Lee to 833Please respect copyright.PENANApJEAtx9g8B
say that in front of everyone. I felt time I had stood still and all 833Please respect copyright.PENANAq39LPExGFt
eyes were on me now. I looked away without saying a word.833Please respect copyright.PENANAnpyPmuyzgG
"What does she mean by that, Sam?" Daesung asked.833Please respect copyright.PENANAPqKXt2lKnF
"Please, tell us," said Christine. "What is it with you and GD? Are you two still fighting?"833Please respect copyright.PENANAt69qmOuDpi
I sighed as looked up at the ceiling still without saying a word. I didn't know how I was going to tell them.833Please respect copyright.PENANArPb40xwC0d
"I thought that argument ended a long time ago," said Daniel. "Or did something else happen?"833Please respect copyright.PENANAHgUIuDY33y
I stood up from the 833Please respect copyright.PENANA8tjkVsCPhc
floor and walked over to the window. The day was so bright and warm but 833Please respect copyright.PENANADNPh7VebK8
yet I felt so cold and gloomy. I knew this day would come sooner or 833Please respect copyright.PENANAGpu0QwVeAI
later.833Please respect copyright.PENANAuAG04C2TQv
Trying to find the right833Please respect copyright.PENANA6Dx9XegFCM
words to say was a lot harder than I thought. What was I going to say? 833Please respect copyright.PENANADT6IPsVQjb
To me, all this was confusing. I knew GD was still mad at me, but for 833Please respect copyright.PENANAAN1fT95GIN
what for, was the question in mind.833Please respect copyright.PENANApgEx8d5T83
"Aren't you going to 833Please respect copyright.PENANAHSc5m2WcTt
tell us?" Mike asked as I realised that he was standing next to me. "Is 833Please respect copyright.PENANAlkbVbd0l92
he still mad about who had to write the lyrics for the song?"833Please respect copyright.PENANADk3ivzaX3A
"I doubt it," said TOP. "I was here with them when they were writing the lyrics and the two of them looked fine to me."833Please respect copyright.PENANAj49B6p2W6l
"Please, tell us what's going on?" Taeyang asked. "Lee, do you know something?"833Please respect copyright.PENANAOMx4FsoCbY
I looked at Lee and she was looking back at me with a scared look on her face. Using my eyes, I told her not to say a word.833Please respect copyright.PENANAGeSfYfQRpm
Lee went on to look at 833Please respect copyright.PENANAJzrD9KoSGM
Taeyang and shook her head. "I've no clue. I didn't mean to say that. I 833Please respect copyright.PENANAGxIkIKfzeN
just thought they might be arguing again."833Please respect copyright.PENANAP3HlAPpu6b
"And it looks like it too," said Daniel, giving me an eye.833Please respect copyright.PENANAtOVt9xJjlH
"Aren't you going to say anything, Sam?" Seungri asked.833Please respect copyright.PENANAJxugIjbPT8
"I don't even know what 833Please respect copyright.PENANAFlkGMjJlNl
to say to you at this point," I said, turning back to face the window 833Please respect copyright.PENANAaKXIGwl013
and I saw G-Dragon's car pull into the premises. Mike also saw it too.833Please respect copyright.PENANAvwpRrlPSWE
"They are here," Mike announced to the others.833Please respect copyright.PENANA4pDqxQFAi7
No one said a word. The room had too much tension already, it was best not to say a word.833Please respect copyright.PENANAu1Ro8IqOjz
"I better call Yang Hyun-suk," said Lee.833Please respect copyright.PENANAfB92duwgs2
"No, not yet," I said, before Lee could stand up from the couch. "Wait until Zoey and G-Dragon get in here."833Please respect copyright.PENANAr6i1I1sM3Q
Lee just nodded her head and I went back to looking through the window down at the car park.833Please respect copyright.PENANA6kljpAw2gH
It only took five 833Please respect copyright.PENANAxPz5g5PihX
minutes for Zoey and G-Dragon to get to the studio. They came in talking833Please respect copyright.PENANAsSHiccehLK
and laughing. Well, that happiness was going to end soon. Not when you 833Please respect copyright.PENANA7CRthxgBzZ
see your group members are all upset and gloomy.833Please respect copyright.PENANA49qRVxYpqc
"Hey, guys!" Zoey said cheerfully as she came in with G-Dragon behind her.833Please respect copyright.PENANAEanoLF2V4T
When no one said anything back, Zoey's mood also changed. "What's with the long faces?"833Please respect copyright.PENANAwFKMYbOwD8
Still, no one said anything. It looked like no one was ready to throw the dice first. I cleared my throat and looked at Lee.833Please respect copyright.PENANAwIeq9CpYVg
"You can call Yang Hyun-suk for us," I said.833Please respect copyright.PENANAGs8NofpBad
"Okay." Lee got up from the couch and bypassed Zoey and G-Dragon going through the door.833Please respect copyright.PENANAGBJMMhRKDj
"Aren't you going to say what's wrong with you guys?" G-Dragon asked.833Please respect copyright.PENANAnYPEN9xzBG
"Where were you?" I asked as I slowly started to approach them.833Please respect copyright.PENANAsCwBVwTHBJ
"We went out," Zoey answered. "Are we in trouble with Yang Hyun-suk?"833Please respect copyright.PENANAuIJSOpFA78
"Not just with him but also with me, a lot of us too," I said motioning to the other group members in the room.833Please respect copyright.PENANAl9JauZW22c
"What? Are you mad we left without telling you?" G-Dragon asked.833Please respect copyright.PENANAYofn0ZITUR
"No." I now turned to look at G-Dragon. "It's about the instrumental. You changed absolutely everything."833Please respect copyright.PENANAl74OS82KOd
I tried to keep my tone down and my anger in check but I was boiling inside. Any minute now, I might just blow my head off.833Please respect copyright.PENANA7WMz9ZFhaB
I was expecting an answer from G-Dragon but all he did was look at me. I kept on coming closer, my eyes not leaving his.833Please respect copyright.PENANAEkLsZYHpZM
"Why did you this?" I asked.833Please respect copyright.PENANANyqojuBkWg
"I didn't like the first one you made," he said, clearly with no emotion in his voice.833Please respect copyright.PENANAkHzxJaRgO3
"If you didn't like it, you should have just said so and all of us together would have figured something out. Not what you did."833Please respect copyright.PENANA4ojLcylCpJ
When I got closer to them, I took out the USB drive from my pocket. I took G-Dragon's right hand and placed it in his open palm.833Please respect copyright.PENANAuiMK2ogsDn
"The instrumental is in 833Please respect copyright.PENANA90S6W9Uq2R
there," I said as I slowly looked up at G-Dragon. "When Yang Hyun-suk 833Please respect copyright.PENANAMSSyVCFbnh
came to hear it, I told him that we ourselves haven't heard it. I did 833Please respect copyright.PENANAsxwJgL03ms
this so I can get the explanation out of you. But we're running out of 833Please respect copyright.PENANAXiU00R3R90
time and he will be here any moment. It's up to you to give it to him 833Please respect copyright.PENANA7EehrFL5lB
and let him hear it for himself. But let me remind you, he is already 833Please respect copyright.PENANA29pE5LU5T7
pissed."833Please respect copyright.PENANAUXnFTjqmGD
"Wait, a minute," said Taeyang as he came up right behind me. "He first has to tell us what's happening between the two of you."833Please respect copyright.PENANARu8pRf8Dr6
"We don't have time, Tae," I turned to look at him.833Please respect copyright.PENANA1YIaDJz22u
"What is going on?" Zoey asked. "Are you and GD still not on good terms?"833Please respect copyright.PENANAZ2Ij8Rx6gt
I looked at Zoey and she833Please respect copyright.PENANAe6D7x9uPtT
was as confused as ever. How I wish I could tell everyone but I didn't 833Please respect copyright.PENANAuzmjmCMjMf
know where I stand with G-Dragon. I still couldn't tell why and what he 833Please respect copyright.PENANALwYkYdQfEO
was mad at me for.833Please respect copyright.PENANAFYFEQZk8cv
"Now is not the right 833Please respect copyright.PENANAcM4qfrGJqs
time," I said as I went over to the couch and sat down. All eyes were on833Please respect copyright.PENANA89iwFjjEsn
me now and I knew everyone was confused, but later on, they would 833Please respect copyright.PENANAyZOW8dfzSA
understand.833Please respect copyright.PENANAznWicRRaBy
Yang Hyun-suk, Collins 833Please respect copyright.PENANAfnwDX15aj8
and Lee came in seconds later. I could tell a lot of people felt 833Please respect copyright.PENANAzaaUhNIrKj
uncomfortable when they came in. I didn't. I just wanted to see whether 833Please respect copyright.PENANAC9eqx4x2Ey
G-Dragon would give away the USB drive or not.833Please respect copyright.PENANAJhEdtxpCV8
"It's about time you guys got here," said Yang Hyun-suk as he turned towards Zoey and G-Dragon. "Hope you had a perfect lunch."833Please respect copyright.PENANAuGuWqL8AId
I almost smirked but kept my cool when Zoey said, "yes, we did."833Please respect copyright.PENANA8np8Tqavhx
"But did you manage to order lunch for your friends too?"833Please respect copyright.PENANAUzDZr5BbXu
Zoey and G-Dragon paused. They obviously weren't expecting that. I had to step in and say something.833Please respect copyright.PENANAbkWTviRGji
"They did. They brought us pizza," I pointed at the three boxes of pizza on the table. We had only finished two boxes.833Please respect copyright.PENANAVXZR65S7B8
"You guys were pretty hungry, weren't you?" Collins asked, looking surprised that two boxes were already empty.833Please respect copyright.PENANALsM492epJo
"Ya, we were," said Mike as he opened the other box of pizza and the rest of us still eating dug in.833Please respect copyright.PENANADEt9DkFuj2
"So," Yang Hyun-suk looked away from us facing Zoey and G-Dragon. "Did you change anything with the instrumental or what?"833Please respect copyright.PENANAkwg3qMvTaW
I paused with my mouth 833Please respect copyright.PENANArZuUqxCDBH
open ready to bite another piece out of my slice. I looked on at what 833Please respect copyright.PENANAtBW2A9oezP
was happening in front of me. I just hoped G-Dragon wasn't going to give833Please respect copyright.PENANAXtsaBJtc8C
Yang Hyun-suk the USB drive.833Please respect copyright.PENANA01A898IB0w
I looked at G-Dragon and833Please respect copyright.PENANAs4NfJolrYe
noticed that he still had the USB enclosed in his hand. I looked at his833Please respect copyright.PENANA0a5HYxHBWw
face wondering what he was thinking.833Please respect copyright.PENANAmqWxYMyJZ3
"Do you think he will give away the USB?" Seungri asked as he whispered in my ear.833Please respect copyright.PENANAHSFNGsh0bi
"Hopefully not," I whispered back. I even had my fingers crossed.833Please respect copyright.PENANAoc4tDUJ24W
"No, we didn't change anything," said G-Dragon.833Please respect copyright.PENANAuVSgMQUk8z
I smiled and Seungri 833Please respect copyright.PENANA3In16m0I2p
held his breath and let out a sigh of relief. The rest of us on the 833Please respect copyright.PENANAjjmuRHAmSa
couch seemed to have relaxed. Luckily, the managers hadn't read our body833Please respect copyright.PENANARqICzpZ6Ut
language. They didn't even look at us. But Lee did.833Please respect copyright.PENANAgnu0lb28kn
"Thank goodness," said Yang Hyun-suk. "I thought you did. I'm glad you didn't."833Please respect copyright.PENANAHRVSB5Bc1b
I smiled a little more. 833Please respect copyright.PENANAdQII7pdknH
G-Dragon did the right thing which I knew he would do. But the problem 833Please respect copyright.PENANAU2bXm61zAe
was far from over though. Now that our group members knew that he and I 833Please respect copyright.PENANA2Gce46sDXF
were at war again.833Please respect copyright.PENANAocR2sxeELh
"But we can't start 833Please respect copyright.PENANAwSsvz08ad6
recording the track now," said Collins. "It's a little late so they 833Please respect copyright.PENANAZDQh14Vtf8
would have to do it the day after tomorrow."833Please respect copyright.PENANARpf82xHLB2
I sat upright and alert.833Please respect copyright.PENANAR4HiVPqISR
"The day after tomorrow? What are we doing tomorrow that we possibly 833Please respect copyright.PENANAseGuYxhRyL
have to record the track the day after?"833Please respect copyright.PENANAlSLWfIcDSo
"Well, Sam," said Yang Hyun-suk turned to look at me. "The Toxins are going to have a TV interview tomorrow."833Please respect copyright.PENANALdGVM2xsDF
"An interview?" Christine was the one who looked more surprised.833Please respect copyright.PENANAVLWG3pgdMt
"But why didn't you tell833Please respect copyright.PENANAdBGZpCblqX
us earlier?" I asked as I looked at Collins who smiled back at me. It 833Please respect copyright.PENANANzeRPssw2S
was then that it hit me and things became clear.833Please respect copyright.PENANAKipL8oaseN
"Is that the surprise you were talking about yesterday?" I asked.833Please respect copyright.PENANARsg8jMJ8sj
"Yep," said Collins as he grinned.833Please respect copyright.PENANAdO1ovubdZk
"This is one heck of a surprise, alright," said Zoey folding her arms.833Please respect copyright.PENANAEDMx2OMiUI
"Well, played," I muttered to myself as I looked away.833Please respect copyright.PENANAw7QWmcyOY4
"So, before the day ends, we better go get ready," said Collins. "You will also have to perform during the interview too."833Please respect copyright.PENANANXWjTaJ2eT
"This just keeps on getting better," said Daniel, rolling his eyes.833Please respect copyright.PENANAahhEMEI8qu
"What are we waiting for? Let's go," said Collins. "We don't have enough time in our hands."833Please respect copyright.PENANArybjpEAyVp
"You should have told us earlier, you know?" Mike said, as we the Toxins stood up to leave.833Please respect copyright.PENANAM4xRMPRPtd
"Then you should have thought twice before you all decided to leave for Paris."833Please respect copyright.PENANA8NNIEUBJhR
It was then that the other Toxins realised that all this was payback. I wasn't surprised. I already knew.833Please respect copyright.PENANAZlnxESXyZH
The two managers and Lee went out of the room first. Just as we were about to walk out, TOP stopped me by holding my hand.833Please respect copyright.PENANAzu8oRL2Dju
I turned to look at him 833Please respect copyright.PENANAGqEf4wfTWx
and he had stood up from the couch, looking straight at me. I blushed 833Please respect copyright.PENANAz8rrEA354B
and looked down at my feet. He always made me nervous when he looked at 833Please respect copyright.PENANApUg5AEQu0G
me like that.833Please respect copyright.PENANAAfoIjYW3ty
"We might have gotten away from our managers' fury today," said TOP. "But you and GD have a lot of explaining to do."833Please respect copyright.PENANAygdPw3xSxt
"I know," I said as I turned to look at G-Dragon, who quickly looked away.833Please respect copyright.PENANA9zQOLaOTPE
"Ya, a lot," said Daesung as he nodded his head. I could see he was trying to ignore that TOP was holding my hand.833Please respect copyright.PENANAKQxUCdtsNw
"And don't try to come up with any excuses," said Taeyang.833Please respect copyright.PENANARhxUWlr8UV
"Don't worry, I won't," I promised. I just hoped G-Dragon wouldn't.833Please respect copyright.PENANA7kvtuSA5l2
Zoey and the others left the room and I was the last to walk out. I didn't want to look at G-Dragon, but I did.833Please respect copyright.PENANARWR1rUK1cw
We looked at each other 833Please respect copyright.PENANAs42p5q7nLT
for a while and I didn't know what I felt for him anymore. Maybe I was a833Please respect copyright.PENANAhVjR9lQH6s
little hurt, but I was also so confused. I don't know. I couldn't tell.833Please respect copyright.PENANA3LPpyu3lQ7
Maybe he also felt the same.833Please respect copyright.PENANAYMdzh29adk
But I wouldn't know and I wouldn't like to know what he felt. I walked out of the studio, closing the door behind me.833Please respect copyright.PENANABflPvHWWh5
I then realised that I 833Please respect copyright.PENANAxchc3ZX1l6
had completely forgot to ask G-Dragon and TOP about the necklace Zoey 833Please respect copyright.PENANAx5b1ZvP0ly
