My watch said 10:31 and I hissed in frustration. I was getting really impatient and I felt like I was about to blow a fuse.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQHY8fPcG6X
I had never been this 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRVZgpuibm
late in my entire life. Not even when I had my own personal 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1J6YrdXtu
appointments. The others would be wondering why I was so late. And 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNDhRVGOrt
trying to explain the reason why, would have them blown away.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqFSBNsVHB
"Sam, are you still there?" Zoey called out to me from our room.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQerf67ZWt2
I didn't want to answer. I was quite irritated. But if I didn't, she would start to freak out.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlUeXSv7m8
"Sam!"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxbRalMv5S0
I rolled my eyes. "I'm still here, Zoey," I answered.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGwAoN378j
Zoey came out of the 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhCWI7H3ecE
room and came to the lounge where I was seated waiting for her. I was on862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH7oqyZtf65
the couch and I looked at her, then back at my watch.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3i3CmDNbDh
"Did you find what you're looking for?" I asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRa8weZYZPC
"No, I haven't," said Zoey.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡozGQkGOzQK
"You've been searching for it all morning," I said as I stood up. "Can we please just go to the studio? We're already late."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLLe6qYs9bz
"No, let me go and check again," Zoey turned around to head back to the room and I groaned so loudly to grab her attention.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslrZeRfOSr
"Zoey, it's just a stud and you have plenty of those like it in your jewellery box."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3XAFvQzGkK
"But those are my favourite studs," said Zoey. "You know they are diamond, right?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0P8OeULI5D
"I know because I bought you those studs for your birthday a year ago."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1GrNhymuz
"Oh. Ya, I know." Zoey had a look on her face that told me she forgot about that.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTHHNVY3BG
I ignored her and said, 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtoxz2ZO0e
"just get another pair of studs or don't put on any at all. For my sake.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUHNvcKbIej
And Collins' too. We were supposed to be at the studio at 10."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5zXkXDMOu
"What time is it?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOY77JcSNR
"10:35."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc1EstoXi0T
"Wow, time really passes by."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xyjckMz2X
"When it comes to you, it does. Come on, let's go."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKIGDJbMG3U
"Let me go get my phone."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdbiRLx7c3I
Zoey rushed back to the 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01BTWewsmM
room and I hoped she wasn't going to get back to looking for her missing862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJUn6jGyyT1
stud. She sometimes did the opposite of what she had to do. But anyway,862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdHfexdHlE
that was Zoey.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRLXW7VMkb
I soon received a 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhh2XsCMCF7
message from Collins threatening me to get to the studio as soon as 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvdDnnxfXP1
possible. In no less than five minutes. I moaned. He knew we couldn't 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdRoHYy1KR
get there in five minutes. That's if we were superheros.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSh4rueq5Fk
"Zoey, come on, we better go!"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRwaiBX86r
"I'm coming."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTl1MD0QeIO
I started heading 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSCg77TtGZz
towards the elevator and my phone beeped again. Another message. 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFBdW2fT2Gn
Hopefully it wasn't Collins again telling us he would hang us to death 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBAMVNA798p
if we didn't make it in time. But I was surprised to see an unknown 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIe1xDAfHle
number. A number coming from another country.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmc75PRwCX
"Oh, who is this?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSDfzwNj9x
Before I could open the message icon, Zoey came rushing from behind and bumped into my back. That almost made me drop my phone.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4oubeKC4d2
"My goodness, Zoey!" I said as I looked at her. "You should look where you're going. I almost dropped my phone."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQ5Rx3L46K
"Sorry," said Zoey as she also looked at me.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9Zsyu7Hp1
"Come on, we're already late."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKIfVhlko3
We went into the 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyveDsGJFFB
elevator and I put my phone away in my jeans jacket pocket. A black 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgUugUrdlr
Chevrolet SUV was waiting for us outside. The others had already left 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRo92ILXFA0
for the studio and I had stayed behind because of Zoey's missing stud.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXaRvQ92Qkq
When we got to YG, 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCGW5OdO2d
Collins stood there by the entrance, obviously waiting for us. He looked862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWjeJCbTW4
like an angry father ready to scold at his kids for coming home late.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3nSTntoxVP
"Don't tell me all this is your doing, Zoey," said Collins as we approached him.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyd20NK9x9s
"No, no, it's not," said Zoey as she shook her head.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2fDiZHmhuA
"Says the person who isn't wearing her studs today."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpsdTy1jfn5
Zoey held her earlobes 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGbcQrk3gH
and looked at me with a surprised look on her face. I shrugged. I had to862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzA5mujCGUz
tell Collins why we delayed over the phone. At least he believed me, 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0EfmmVbudQ
knowing that he already knew what was Zoey was like.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBhzzYNFIRR
"Come on, the others are waiting and they didn't want to start without you," said Collins.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuyQ4gfzeMI
"They had to wait," said Zoey, flipping her hair. "I'm singing the first verse alongside G-Dragon."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0G9V5ErMQH
"Remind me whenever you're deciding who sings which part of a song to let me be there," said Collins as he turned to look at me.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN5H97qpebs
"I'll try." I smiled. Zoey stuck out her tongue at Collins.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡejJzBOXgUk
We got to the studio and we found everyone else waiting for us, lazing around on the couch.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0o3LTN3xEy
"Hey, you're finally here," said Seungri.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKapKEXVDB
"Sorry, we had an issue back at the hotel," said Zoey.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhE9xHZhwAl
"Ya. A 'serious' one." I said as I rolled my eyes.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQGiyCzcoz
"I can't wait to get started," said Daniel excitedly as he stood up from the couch.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoou1iHRHC6
"Then let's do so," said862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0NhXmwbju4
Collins as he joined the music producer by the console. "Zoey, Taeyang,862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqNecYEComb
Christine, Sam and G-Dragon, we will start with you guys."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3T3SefgTY
I had completely forgot 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56UtKGkqIo
that G-Dragon was even in the room. I hadn't noticed him at all when he 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvlO1Tvlhv
stood up from the couch and came towards Zoey and I.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFXUKfdfu2
"Hi, Zoey," G-Dragon greeted Zoey.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgcopXAZZ4w
"Hi," said Zoey with a wide smile on her face.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4kEkieWcF
"Ahem," Christine came from behind as she cleared her throat. "Let's go. You two can talk later."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLitNKDzxv
I rolled my eyes and together with Taeyang and Christine, we went into the live room together, followed by the two love birds.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpygjXyUfUa
In the live room, there 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAza92wryO
stood five microphones and with each mic had a pair of headphones around862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWEWlgujM8
it. We each stood in front of a microphone and put on the headphones.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡifmz1zlPQQ
Ahead of us was a window where we could see the others from the other side.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC6kZQlR8Bz
"Are you guys ready?" Collins asked as his voice was heard through the speaker in the live room.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHGcGAjEEXa
I looked at the others 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQOH9taBe8
to see if they were settled and gave Collins a thumbs up and the music 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLG5LhXjkV
producer started to play the tune for the song.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWRsVqC1vD
G-Dragon started to sing862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8753otN3u
and then afterwards, Zoey followed. Their voices blended so well with 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdRkfFsuJV
the music, they made a perfect harmony. Looked like I did a good thing 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2lJf2x5Gmf
to let them sing the first verse together.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05gd64lqme
Collins, the music 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdzO2psWka7
producer and the others outside the live room had smiles on their faces.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡssqsKJgQ1s
They were loving it alright. Collins gave them a thumbs up.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5YxPcyQbUp
Christine then sang the 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyLX0o0u0x
bridge and as she came came closer to the chorus, I joined in. Then 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDm3BBcAa3X
Taeyang and I sang the chorus together.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUmz12FwPM
When we were done, the music producer stopped playing the track.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEq4mTb11pS
"That was awesome, guys," said Collins as his voice came out through the speaker. "The song is so incredible."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPMsJI4br0
"Ya, thank Sam," said Taeyang. "She is the one who came out with all of this."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRMHOsxfXYj
I smiled at Taeyang who stood beside me and I nudged him on the shoulder. "Stop it, Tae," I said. "Don't make me blush."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVqNKXBeQ5l
"Okay, Sam and Taeyang, I862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7k9IrBh4tf
want you two to go through the chorus again, this time with a little 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2QSVULK5Oq
more high tempo and see how it sounds," said the music producer.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcoFEaU6QOL
"Okay," Taeyang and I said at the same time.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA9nZWa2ByJ
"Shall GD and I leave then?" Zoey asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBapLHgoEfl
"You may," said Collins,862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJr7ncrDOE2
looking a little irritated on his face. "But don't leave the studio. 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQDa7qvG9I
You have to work on the backup vocals."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUabHyZdVYE
"Alright, we will be here," said Zoey, with a grin on her face.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBoRTsvlY1b
If I hadn't known 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHPspjCTUP
better, something told me Zoey and G-Dragon were up to something. They 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ70qix9KcVx
looked like little mischievous children as they smiled at each other and862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQH1PXM9N9G
they walked out of the live room. I couldn't help but feel a little 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWUVPwanpCL
hollow inside.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHefSY7KKuP
"So, we will start from Christine's part," said the music producer.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKsn9gxduD7
We continued recording 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGrTizzT8u
the song and later on, TOP, Mike, Daesung, Seungri and Daniel also came 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiVIiKR4r48
into the live room. It took us a while to record the whole song, trying 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16jefyNOJb
to make our vocals blend in with the song but we were done.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZnarpMN90f
"Great job guys," said Collins. "Let's break up for lunch and then we can come back and work on the backup vocals."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxHd6QIrAJw
"Alright," said Mike as he took out his headphones. "I'm pretty hungry now."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKevFwCc9Za
"The song is amazing," said Christine. "And it's catchy that you can sing it the whole day."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ34O1jUFYxN
"Ya," said TOP. "Why don't we all go somewhere special for lunch?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjtrDovqGa
"Like where?" I asked as I put the headphones on the mic.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZkZztmtyI
"Some restaurant I think we will like," said TOP as he looked at me with a killer smile.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRXnpjIcHBL
"That sounds great." I turned to the window to look at Collins who obviously heard everything. "Can we go, Collins?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRnZ2Hb6oyj
"Ya, you can go," said Collins waving his hand irritatingly in the air.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW5FNlwirFp
"Yes!" Daniel punched the air with his fist.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3gE11VVcQ
"But be back within an hour."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdANNjQah8
I raised an eyebrow at Collins who then rolled his eyes at me and groaned.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9copWrUge
"Fine, an hour and a half."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhmOyWdASWg
I did a little victory dance in my heart and I smiled in triumph. Collins and the music producer soon left the studio room.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzWJFhxZrl
"How did you do that?" Daesung asked as we all walked out of the live room.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4IM1EVNO53
"Do what?" I asked with a smile on my face as Daesung was right behind me.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ57BGzSULx6
"How did you convince Collins to give us an hour and thirty minutes?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrHKCG7JgfJ
"That, my friend," said 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9QyqyRobd
Mike behind me, "is the way my sister does her thing. Just by a look in 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpsF2y4PRhW
her eyes and you will have to do whatever she wants."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFS96RQcE4
"That's not true," I said as I turned around to look at Mike who had his hand on Daesung's shoulder.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Xn7VISoLL
"Really? I beg to differ," said TOP as he winked at me.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXx90gqqspK
"No one does what I want them to do just by looking at them in the eye," I said, looking away from TOP, blushing.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTeKcAt54Im
"Well, it does work, most of the time," said Christine nodding her head.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6atePHb84
"Oh, ya? Like when?" I folded my arms.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3t17eET5lR
"Whenever you want us to862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1iTQRumPlU
tell you the truth about something and we refuse, you always give us 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0ow8jQJx2
this eye that makes us give in," said Daniel.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWufqqtf2p
"For real?" I raised an eyebrow.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJnGeN0iZV
"Ya, your eyes burn and we just can't take it," said Christine.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhj46vfGKUB
"Huh," I thought of all 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wKESGzWOu
the times when either of my brothers or the girls ever did whatever I 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSzUX6fSUf
wanted them to do just by me giving them the eye.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWEtYaDqEF
"But that doesn't explain with Collins though," said Taeyang.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPdBAcxIiLC
"Thank you, Tae," I said feeling relieved.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcMrrcLdAN4
"Come on, Sam," said 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9II1ZgqEix
Daniel. "You might not know it, but Collins listens to you because you 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnXmeLqGD0
also give him the eye. And also probably because you're his favourite."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbNFcvHuPTZ
"That makes no sense." I shook my head.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQn0w279USD
"I believe him," said Seungri. "Looks like you have a way of getting to Collins to make him agree with you."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2K74NPRXt
"But he doesn't agree to me all the time," I slowly shook my head.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAklb9sR2V7
"On some ocassions like this one, he does," said Christine with a smile.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡePFtsjCQUH
"Can we please just go for lunch?" I asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEZkow7Fras
Seungri came over to open the door for me, but just as I was about to step out of the room, I stopped.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7sVITNkoB
"Guys?" I turned around to look at the others. "Where are Zoey and GD?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡepcvoPebsr
We all turned towards the couch and noticed that there was no one there. I went back in the room and looked around.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3JOCn6jLjl
"They aren't here," I said.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLuadFtJqPj
"These guys don't stop surprising us with their disappearing acts," said Daesung.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3A0YSkkXdH
"I'm surprised Collins didn't notice," said Seungri.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX64iiqHflH
"Hopefully, they will be back before we start on the backup vocals," I said.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3MFgsHXyK
"Then let's go then," said TOP. "Wherever those two are, they are fine."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wbGyDYEwN
I nodded my head and we 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2B25nHZmc
all left the room. As we headed down to the ground floor, I reminded 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeeg6sehZho
myself to leave a text message for Zoey.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsuhp1S0WX
We were in the lobby and862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSATjjjQ8fa
I stopped to remove my phone. I went over to messages and realised that862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFkLAqUIx4d
I had one unread message. It was the message I had received this 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJWAx0KzkU
morning.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgAAOPv3G2
I first sent Zoey a text862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDmGZUyyhOT
message then I decided to read the unknown message from this unknown 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfzQPwKYLW
person. Then TOP appeared right in front of me.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnC3QZWVJoF
"Hey, what are you looking at?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ40UAs8Zq3B
I was startled by his sudden appearance that my thumb pressed the exit button and I had gone out of my messages.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIYOr8Q5o6J
"I was just sending Zoey a message," I said.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0uimeU3SA
"Okay, shall we go?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfBiLVqWQf
"Ya, sure." I put the phone back in my pocket and I wrapped my arm around his elbow and we walked out of the building.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfwWxEFfeCO
"Oh, you guys look like you're going out," said Christine with a smile.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6k8w4nBoW
"We're all going out for lunch aren't we?" I asked with a smirk.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUg8vEuICF
"Ya, we are," said Daesung, looking the other way and scratching the back of his head.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9S227UktZO
"We better go or else our one and half hours will elapse in no time," said Daniel.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjM2L6Zqa91
Instead of using any one862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjXaB896Ea
of the BigBang members personal cars, we used the two black SUVs. We 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ09iEvWHFnr
were driven to a fancy restaurant and as usual, we grabbed a lot of 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVFUNnCNQE
attention, especially from the customers.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ElsszELoa
I had to admit, the 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2DiZ9OIPj
restaurant was nice and classy, suitable for the famous and the rich. As862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBS9pVthBV
I walked into the restaurant with the others, a fancy glass chandelier 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyvR2PfGMt
caught my eye. The polished wooden floor shone almost like glass under 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbzVfAl5Qv
the lights the chandelier reflected all over the room.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXyQEj1z2cB
A smartly dressed 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHeyAzHINO5
waiter, who by the way, was super cute, came over. He gave us a friendly862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMG3OZZxNed
smile and I felt Christine nudge me by the shoulder and when I turned 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjKcizSLD8
to her, she was smiling. Looked like she also noticed the waiter's good 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQL2QMhuEW
looks too. Damn! Why were Korean men so good looking?862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq8uQ1szgGy
We were escorted to a 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0IKOvVg9Y0
round table big enough to cater a whole lot of people. Even ten. But 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJR7vHPjNrn
sadly, Zoey and G-Dragon weren't here.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMqnGAQEBF
TOP pulled a chair for 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRbkGtmr2U2
me and I sat down, thanking him as he took his seat beside me. Seungri 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs9PLZW7OoQ
pulled a chair for Christine who sat on my other side and Seungri sat 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vH2CZHtMH
beside her.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSYR36UQ0Gb
"This place is so lovely," I said as I looked around.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU15rWnI00g
"Tell me about it," said Christine.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbpYMpbw20E
"I knew you would like it," said TOP.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYCgRmtLCl
"Ya, it's exquisite, but I'm only here for the food," said Mike who sat opposite me.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRo7hR7XOp
"So, let's order," said Daesung.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3MvR4hXgNO
I took the fancy looking menu with the colour of velvet and the letters written in gold. Classy.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfP6FKiJw64
After our delicious meals had been served, we ate. I enjoyed it as I savoured every little food in my mouth.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXOL8ZWkcAM
As we were having our 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwg7JPe6Y72
dessert, we were chatting and there was a lot of laughter all around our862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZKSbI2mOyM
table. It was fun to be like this, all together as good friends and 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyv7DqrnifE
laughing about. I kind of wished Zoey and GD were here. I bet they were 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOhD8cfkoE
having fun wherever they were.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZMUQChcYr
While I was having my 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQpbvJ8IIVk
strawberry cake, I felt the vibration of my phone in my pocket. Must be a862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMGFERh3ZWW
message. I took out my phone and I was shocked to see that the same 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMsTyLu0Qlx
unknown number had sent me a message again.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuA2EbckYCv
I tapped on the message 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQrFdAqOUAO
icon and the first message the unknown number had sent to me was a 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqQc1dmdbH
photo. I had to download it first before I could even see it. And then 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk3Lpo4PKhM
the next message was more surprising.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ73yI4waqtK
"Aren't you going to do anything about this?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4nRTXRT9TZ
Anything about what was 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjqGqBfriSl
the question. Had this had to do with the photo? Must be or else the 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22r95Fgtxg
unknown person wouldn't have texted me this message.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCfzxDorIUI
I decided to turn my data on and download the photo. Just as I was about to, my phone went off.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2pFtiJjjSR
"Dang it!" I muttered to myself.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ZmyQaxgGH
"Hey, what's wrong?" TOP asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHn4KvD8Io
"Nothing, my phone went dead. I hadn't charged it last night."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZh76up6POX
"Was there something important you wanted to do?" Taeyang asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlAKyySLZGd
"Not really, it's not important." I shook my head but my thoughts still lingered on the unknown photo.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFtphKr2EG
"Did Zoey text you back?" Christine asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjzJfXl71Ww
"No, why?" I asked as I picked up a piece of strawberry cake with my fork.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYLmsulqSo
"Well, your phone vibrated so I thought you had received a message from her."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA7YxN1IwJb
"It was nothing. Wherever Zoey is, she is having a lot of fun."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn246b6iILN
"Hey, what's up with GD and Zoey anyway?" Taeyang asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi918b910qV
"Isn't it freaking obvious?" said Daesung. "Those two seem like a couple now."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡassifKxbMo
I almost choked on my cake but instead, I cleared my throat. Christine rolled her eyes.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ucMaaTOTb
"Well, that wasn't going to go on unnoticed forever," she said.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGpfLvx9eU
"Wait, for real?" Taeyang asked, with a look of surprise.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiD4TRSv9KV
"And you already knew, didn't you?" Mike asked looking at Christine.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9pd0HZfYEu
"Oh, please," said Christine rolling her eyes. "Don't tell me you haven't noticed how close those two are nowadays."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5GZsidIl8h
"They have always been close," said Seungri. "But this time, they are just way too close."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHhv5Qs6GD
"For them to disappear like that together, it counts for something, right?" TOP suggested.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7AJpJ1xbrV
"Can we please stop 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGdAlsQavch
talking about it?" I asked. "There are people around and if they hear 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQaUjfPBdL
all this, some of us would be hanged when this spreads like wild fire."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94AgqB0gQS
"Why do you say that?" Daesung asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYStSpzVrF8
"Oh, oooh, oh," said Daniel waving his hand from across the table. "May I say it?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFfJ9MAVhD
"No, let me," said 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMIYimYuujE
Christine, as she put her hand on mine and looking at me convincingly to862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5umXkvia8
allow her to say what she wanted to say.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQx5CCuKyMs
I shook my head at Christine and she leaned back on her seat with a groan. Daniel smiled when I nodded my head to let him go on.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwyOjV8nxM5
"Because, Collins gave 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqijX9qxlfj
these girls a golden rule when we were coming here," said Daniel. "And 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzVxwuWRCfG
that is, none of them should date any one of you BigBang members. 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIazxnPM1Em
Never."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjRzRc4QSy2
There was silence on the862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKy8rFOqNCB
table and I couldn't help but feel a little downcast. Christine 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTgdxVSzD1R
continued to eat her dessert like nothing serious had been said. I 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEeczzdhD9b
looked over at my brothers who seem to be enjoying our humiliation.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXELHSV8lxE
"Is that true?" Seungri asked, looking over at me.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOoqbpOyw9f
"Ya, it's true," I said as I slowly chewed the cake in my mouth.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpjLtz0cVob
"Oh." Daesung looked a little disappointed as he stared down at his plate.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP6YSHNqdD3
"Who cares? It's not like it's that serious," said TOP as he shrugged.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡykZ89ZMPql
"It's serious to 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLN3RcEfH6t
Collins," I said as I turned to look at TOP. "We're only here to 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkBVNsQf6Ux
collaborate with you and that's all. Not date, get married and have 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGK5AdmTNIY
babies."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJHAUExxbO
That was odd coming out 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wfeFynoVV
of my own mouth and the others knew it too. Everyone's eyes were on me, 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2tFQ4Gk11p
with looks on their faces that I couldn't describe. This was 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsY7vbcHKWO
embarrassing. My hands were now curled into fists as they rested on my 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJEoxtcx60i
laps.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7tV1c798y
"Sorry, that came out wrong," I said.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkBrIrYR0pr
"Well, you did catch us by surprise by saying that," said Taeyang.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7qwh36rqr
I really did. Something 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPRGYBLzvU
had gone totally wrong with me and I could feel it. My thoughts were 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48OF9DfAOX
spinning in my head and I felt like I had no control over how I felt.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJJKQzXinE
"Excuse me, I'll need to use the rest room," I said as I drew back my chair, stood up and headed straight for the ladies' room.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9HszO9Zr6f
I quickly closed the 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAYInbmb5pJ
door immediately I stepped in the ladies' room, leaning my back against 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWCwmpwX15
the door. My hands flew to my hair and I took a deep breath. I walked 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa2B8JQUVWd
over to the sink and stared at myself in the mirror.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5BroupRbs
"What's wrong with you today?" I asked my reflection.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkWi0OVIjNE
I shook my head and I 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFnCN6liCus
knew I wasn't alright. Something was definitely wrong. Was it the fact 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHFWuEacHVI
that Zoey and G-Dragon were together? As far as I know, I wasn't really 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJXm6fB3Fd
supposed to care. But I did.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJoFEyoG0z
I looked at myself and I862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8xokgtmZF
could see the sadness in my eyes. Were they for G-Dragon? I shook my 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqtXd0cNu3
head at the thought. No. They weren't. He and I were still at war with 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqQ4ZVeGzv
each other and that made no sense. I had to stop thinking about these 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOnPl8GwI6m
things and focus on what's really important.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrg901Usjsb
I quickly took a deep breath to try and pull myself together. I rinsed my hands, left the room and went back to our table.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0aDE1lBtqu
"Are you okay, Sam?" Mike asked as I sat back down.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQugcJ32eWU
"Ya, I am. I just feel horrible that I said that."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJZjBzyY99
"We think we know why you did," said Christine.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUX3q7u1Fbh
I gulped. What had these862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡii8G9p4Ghw
guys thought of now? If it was what I thought it was, I would rather 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡay3VHzPwLV
not hear it. There was a moment of silence at the table.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTHAaZLHW2
"Zoey has you so worked up that you're irritated," said TOP.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvOh5jM6OnM
That was not what I was expecting. I was wide eyed and in my heart, feeling a little relieved.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd10epcCnd3
"Ya, I remember when we were coming here in the plane and Collins told you to watch over Christine and Zoey," said Mike.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfcH0PgC4JG
"And I have been a good girl on my part," said Christine making an invisible drawing of a halo above her head with her finger.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBrkb4GHgir
While Christine was one 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBpXjV6ds7
who at least had her hormones in check, Zoey and I were pretty much 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6haYbeBpD
guilty. I couldn't tell who was worse between either of us. I bet I was 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtT5bBqqKx
worse.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUwZxdZuqw5
"Well, I guess I'm also guilty myself like Zoey," I said, admitting to everyone.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsLoqTUiZSl
"If you mean TOP flirting around with you, then trust me, you're not," said Daniel.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9UgYLc0UU0
"Hey!" TOP looked a little annoyed but rather amused. He ended up laughing.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhq1NkYgV13
"And me calling you my panda," said Seungri, with a smirk.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwAO5WP2lJZ
"You see, Sam, people just like you," said Mike. "And these guys shouldn't dare make a move of kissing you."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDyoklBzEUO
I blushed. "Mike!"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAKP4V1mC6c
"Don't worry, he is just being protective over his sister," said Daesung, laughing.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOFnqMtgch
"I've tried kissing 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1x96LugBnV
her," TOP challenged as he looked over at my brothers. He raised an 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7keoeHfwTJ
eyebrow. "What are you going to do about that?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOPwY7CQtk
"Uhh, if I were you, I 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijfA1y83Qo
wouldn't challenge them, TOP," I said as put my hand on his shoulder, 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0dk4c6uPI
looking over at my brothers who looked set on tearing TOP apart. And I 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKuPM92rJd1
caught a glimpse of Daesung rolling his eyes at TOP. "You would end up 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaZ0PCr1AK3
regretting it."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgnXGbYYE83
"True," said Christine, nodding her head at TOP. "These boys are like monsters you can't beat. Only Sam can handle them."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8UgbiVnnY2
I looked over at Christine with a look that said 'that's not true.' Christine shrugged.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMyGVOOQWU6
"Fine, I'll listen to 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGCdOKavdLv
you ladies," said TOP as he looked at Christine and I. "Most especially 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWf3BybPvGH
because Sam says so." He gave me that killer bad boy smile of his and I 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKZuSvml8z
blushed.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDkm2FBPrGj
"Well, we better go," said Taeyang.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIcvyjWRUZg
He was right. We only had a few minutes to get to YG. And Collins was one person who's strict when it comes to time.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBAk23Hx3w
After TOP paid the bill, we left the restaurant with the paparazzi taking pictures as we walked out.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB5C49lnmJC
We got to YG just in 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcdMsEs6jGR
time. I just hoped that Zoey and G-Dragon were back here. I didn't want 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9n86JWEWkz
Collins on my throat and giving him the eye, wasn't going to help.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUDlQdkAUho
When we got to the studio, we found G-Dragon.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOGoEisrdT
"Hey, where did you two disappear to?" Christine asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8CFEY0VqWY
"We just went out," said G-Dragon as he looked around the room.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg4wY8CWUv4
I couldn't help but feel862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTp9zG2GfJ1
that something was wrong, just by the look on his face. "What's wrong?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHz89joMfr
I asked him with my eyebrow raised.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkM2gwZGY3V
"Huh?" He appeared to be absent minded. Was he looking for something?862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbk8j1uVO5
"I was asking what's wrong with you? And where is Zoey?" I asked as I also looked around.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOSS0xXg9IC
"That's the thing," said G-Dragon. "I can't find her."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01eFl9389A
I felt something inside 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVW4KNUnIh
me break and my eyes bulged out of their sockets ready to fall out. I 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpD8dle1mLQ
couldn't believe what I was hearing.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9E1JP3bV3N
"Are you for real?" Taeyang asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlnzP1xWFwY
"I'm serious," said G-Dragon.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzG15Yr7gWV
"Wait, do you mean you 'lost' her?" Mike asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3HgVHl3XwS
"I didn't lose her, I just can't find her."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9htKRReXG
"That sounds more like losing her to me," said Daniel.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2kNnUQc2CU
"You guys aren't helping!" G-Dragon exclaimed throwing his hands in the air in frustration.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtny6LSkEDa
"Where were you guys first of all?" Seungri asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPnoGyBdtU2
"We first went to have lunch then the two of us went to the park."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8WIvmJEJo
"Then?" TOP asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1iN9hII6J3
"I don't know, I went over to get some ice cream for the both of us, and the next thing I know she was gone."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4CHUGXxSl
"Are you sure?" Daesung asked. "Did you look everywhere for her?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYpJ3OiXhJN
"I did. I even asked people around and they hadn't seen her. I thought she would be back here."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFjFOOgHWMA
"That would be unusual, given that Zoey doesn't really know the city so well," said Taeyang.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2ZpaaPnYL
"But where could she be?" Christine asked looking as worried as I was.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWUbTluFBjT
"Try calling her," said Seungri, turning to Christine.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsh80KBoZWV
"I just hope she is okay," I said as I rubbed my neck.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzKN7M9mrZ
"What are we going to do with Collins?" Mike asked looking at me.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNO3yhmgEP
"I don't know," I said. "Hey, do me a favour and try to call the hotel and see if Zoey is there."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4mangoPMD7
"Sure thing," said Mike as he pulled out his phone.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTydXs3sIC5
"Her phone is off," said Christine her phone in her hand.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuzZAMViLSh
"Oh, no, this isn't good," said TOP.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0xEcwshlL
"Again, Zoey is putting us into more problems."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCJiX6vDzZ
I couldn't help but 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡit8RPcrjkL
wonder why she went off like that. Something wasn't right. Was G-Dragon 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKRIN0DqOi
not telling us what was really going on?862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc1qPBgtc8V
"No one has seen Zoey go into the hotel," Mike announced.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2fAu3JZIiB
"We're goners," said Seungri as he dropped himself on the couch.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd7PSjClkpj
"We've to look for her," said TOP.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCms3r8ZTa
"But where can we start looking?" Daniel asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1AsgFKp5Vw
"I don't know, but we have to go and find her," I said.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4McBPR1I9G
"And we have to do something with Collins," said Taeyang.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlh1dka9Y7m
"Did someone say my name?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6OrQ1bDNs0
I cringed. He was one 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzXVX9LUGYt
person I wasn't ready to face right now. Everyone else wasn't ready to 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1kbTb8pDG
either. We slowly turned to look behind us and Collins stood there with 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGQ6N6sT7nY
the music producer.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa0NbOPf1wM
"Why are you all looking worried like someone has gone missing?" Collins asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgabZMmOHpq
I sighed. If only he knew. But if he does find out, he wasn't going to forgive us that easily.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmQXQFYvIc
Collins looked on at us, waiting to answer him. What to do now! We were going to be in such big trouble.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ95Su8P2PCH
"Looks like you aren't 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡENuUa1jrT9
going to answer me, so let's get back to work," said Collins turning 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9sKKbAHRYj
away from us and heading towards the console.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvCcqGFmFnU
"We will work on the backup vocals," said Collins. "Zoey, Sam and Christine, you're up."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLbwzfHcJQ
I looked at the others 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSkIniy4CUV
who hadn't said a word. We all looked at each other. Someone had to do 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHYbY06DPw
something or else we would be toast.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmL3dGnoym2
"Are we going to start?" Collins asked looking behind him as he turned on his chair. "Where is Zoey?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFgBwatq8S
It was about time he noticed. It looks like we ourselves weren't ready to tell him that Zoey is missing.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyvu7eZSzTt
"What's wrong with you, guys? Why aren't you saying anything?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfhQtRHP6RT
"Zoey isn't here," said Mike.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCz68ypisOy
"Ya, I can see that. Where is she?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCzvwqwuhLH
"She wasn't feeling too well," I said. "So she went back to the hotel."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYs7ipjiq1
"What? Did she eat something bad for lunch?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTcNG0mApd0
"Ya. She did," said G-Dragon.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCEiA3R7Dr9
"So, do you think we should continue or do this tomorrow when Zoey is around?" I asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8HlQYp0Gm6
"We should just do this tomorrow," the music producer suggested, turning to Collins.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwuV8Fd8db
Please say yes. I was praying in my heart that Collins would agree. This time I wasn't relying on my eye to do anything.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe4IgBFgKrQ
"Fine," said Collins. "We really need Zoey, so we should just do it tomorrow."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0gck8yuLwz
Mike and Daniel almost 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrD09OGedHp
jumped with relief but they managed to control themselves. Christine 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6OvkImaduK
turned around so that Collins and the music producer wouldn't notice her862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfg6gH5QSju
sighing in relief. The rest of us just stood there, pocker faced.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0x3hK8hFE
"That's fine," said Taeyang.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgfKDmHzL0P
"I really wanted us to be done with this today," said Collins.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn27qWXBIp4
"Looks like it wasn't meant to be," said TOP.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWw50mYyRd
Ya. It wasn't meant to be. Looks like we were lucky. That meant we could look around for Zoey.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBMwmXZlfH
"You guys can go back to the hotel and make sure Zoey is okay," said Collins.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNtJmxY7ad
"I'll go," said Christine. "The others can stay here if they want to."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXX7RVDe9t0
Christine was doing the 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSNS6hGJLWv
right thing. If she went to the hotel, Collins wouldn't be so suspicious862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKQfWlgojD
of what's going on and just in case he decides to go back there at 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFTY2iMbvx
anytime, Christine might cover up for Zoey.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8oRlhTgHvM
"Okay and what will the rest of you all be doing?" Collins asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRtlAgLFDj
"Chilling," G-Dragon and I replied at the same time. We both looked at each other afterwards.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpgACI9IZFE
"Fine, I have some other things to attend to. I might just go and check up on Lee and Yang Hyun-suk."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvAdwukd57
I wanted to ask where, 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUCzATkgi18
but I knew it was none of my business. I realised that I hadn't seen Lee862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYPypJjFvA
the whole day. Must be she was busy with Yang Hyun-suk. Collins and the862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtenbLkwKx
music producer soon left.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiiyOmfVaof
I walked over to the door and checked if Collins and the music producer were in the hall. But they were gone.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBAaAumOQIh
"Looks like we have to split up and look for Zoey," said Taeyang.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsIUpBmnt1V
"Ya, we should," I 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡluT36YIqqk
nodded my head. "G-Dragon and I will take Christine to the hotel just in862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf15192Yx4X
case Zoey shows up and if Collins decides to go there."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYuiei9AJai
"I'll go with Taeyang," said Daniel.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4iGHpfuEQL
"And I go with Seungri," said Mike.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwKXlIHl2H
"That leaves Daesung and I," said TOP.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWeVXFayLA
"Great, let's go," I said and we all walked out of the room.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJJR310Agk
As soon as we left the 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUUieQUz0kN
YG building, we split up in the parking lot. Luckily, Collins had 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHGecjtLI5
already left. Christine and I went with G-Dragon in his car. It was 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzGDJHlqgcg
important that I had to talk to G-Dragon concerning Zoey.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgd6SDJWrr4
We soon arrived at the hotel and Christine got out of the car. I gave her my phone for it to be charged.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrx5pPTw7p7
"Call us if anything good happens," I said I looked at Christine through the window.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD8NmO8QomV
"And what if something bad happens?" Christine asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb121EB12Bi
"Like Collins? You can handle it," I said as I gave her a smile. Christine winked and wished us luck.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8IT6Mn37H
G-Dragon drove away and 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhPBeqxCV2R
we first went to the park where he came with Zoey after lunch. I just 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5rRO9DrNS
hope she didn't go that far and that she was okay.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSE9xRXvvIQ
"Did you two have some sort of argument?" I asked when we both got out of the car and I went round it to face him.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLBTgyBcr4c
"What?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrWKW3jaddS
"Did you two argue?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwlUg0SBfY8
"No, we didn't," said G-Dragon as he went around me and started walking towards the park.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUwaifReCI9
I quickly turned and followed him. When I caught up with him, I stood in front of him to stop him.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4do5J1KhU
"Are you telling me the truth?" I asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCcQJ97hDt
"Do you think I am lying?" G-Dragon asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYAEhrptq8b
"I think so." I said with my arms folded.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpS8Lr6q45u
"You're crazy," said G-Dragon as he walked around me again.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNAWE6Czjfc
I huffed. He wasn't going to budge. I had to try something to get the truth out of him.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFgJHBsdjX
With quick strides, I 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr32yG5maqc
caught up with him again. This time I started to walk backwards so that I862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFrpR4ID8t
could look at him directly in his face.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhnYhMd3mz
"What are you doing?" G-Dragon asked as he looked at me, puzzled.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiai1tZ4zuD
"I want you to tell me the truth."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHkRBnZi4ud
"You're stressing yourself out by walking backwards."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYIkSKu5NH3
"Do I care?" I raised an eyebrow at him. "I know you're hiding something from me."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFn3kjBfBkg
G-Dragon chuckled and 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ8gnIrb0UA
that almost made me smile. "Stop playing detective, my little kitty. As 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC2487Z8zmT
much as it suits you, you're going to trip over and fall."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3jwsH66ZN
"Then you have to stop me from walking backwards by answering my question."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3MDgy83bC
"This is one silly method of interrogation if you ask me."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGy4DkJWxG
"I can tell you're not telling me something. Zoey can't just leave like that without someone upsetting her."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9XAKWrEhB
"And how do you know?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB6KWxRhF6X
"I'm her best friend. 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMDPelkjpb
And plus, whenever someone gets her really upset, she runs off without 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡII8vsn5War
telling anyone. She always wants be alone to think."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCdCk6liZ6G
"I hope she doesn't think of committing suicide."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoAVASUQCKm
"Zoey can't end her 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxt39Msv42
life. Well, she hasn't tried to anyway. She's leaving the dream right 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dquLPkiAp
now and ending her life this early, isn't going to sound right. Unless 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqKdIOlNhj
you did something."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXDFHwFUUkq
"Me?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1iro0bUaJ
"Da! Yes, you!"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9IW9rbour
"What could I possibly have done for Zoey to try and commit suicide?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyPb1ib1hw0
"Don't talk about suicide like that." I hit him on the arm.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1suqrCoUEv
"Ouch!" G-Dragon stopped and held his arm. "That hurts!"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrYeTVnKoyn
"Well, you deserve it. Now tell me the truth." I put my hands on my hips.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl2vo6J12re
"I'm telling you, Zoey and I didn't argue."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPf9f4gmRe
G-Dragon looked me in the eye and he seemed really convincing.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8pah0RpVP
"Okay. I believe you," I said. "But you must have said something that upset her."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSnNiLTrYmY
"I can't really remember what I had said to her. Maybe she just left on her own."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmrHKlkpdy0
"And with her phone off, that's a bit strange, don't you think?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpLO2mCI3aX
"When we find her we will ask why she ran off."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiIOGAwp1PR
"Ya. Sure."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJq92F4Mcl
"Now, will you please 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5JfNMA26A
stop walking backwards? I don't want you to trip and save you from 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdmc0hu1Wf
falling. That will spark rumours again like it did during the 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2CjVYftChI
interview."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVScrGsGUf
I didn't say anything, 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE3SAqOuUWe
so I just nodded my head and faced forward. We went further into the 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamzORAy9W3
park and as we looked around for Zoey, we sparked some attention from 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGOj9vlziA
our darling fans. We signed a few autographs and took a few pictures and862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxSNlXpHhb
went on with our search. We even asked some fans if they had seen Zoey,862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Qb6A1rEYm
but nothing.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1A387plmVj
We were already half way into the park and still no sign of Zoey. We were by the lake and I sat down on the grass by the banks.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qopLyZcGf
"Are you tired already?" G-Dragon asked as he looked down on me.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2b3ho9eAT
"I'm not," I said as I 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUxzB5V5YZq
removed my slippers and felt comfortable with my bare feet on the grass.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ502kC7sqiN
"I'm trying to figure out where Zoey could be."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuekF5r8fT1
G-Dragon sat down beside862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Xyf8VG3UV
me and the two of us were silent, looking at the pond. Laughter filled 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKT2wVqV2k
my ears as I saw a group of kids playing from across the pond. Some 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZ9Ys8NHGw
couples also sat on the grass close to the pond. It was such a beautiful862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGmitmODdeg
day and sitting by the pond felt so relieving.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7zDNrm08h
"Have you figured something yet?" G-Dragon asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmU0ekccr0
I frowned and looked at him. "No, why do you ask?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsh80JI6nZH
"You seem to be smiling to yourself," said G-Dragon as he looked at me.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqAj66ANSfZ
"No, I'm actually enjoying what I'm experiencing right now."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs2pHJ5Eo66
"You love nature, don't you?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOpVwzhUBDY
I closed my eyes, still smiling. "Ya. I really do."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpUHe7PrZRa
At that moment, I was so862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzNqz1qaQNU
caught in the little world inside my head. For a moment, I forgot about862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCBiwCSSe7D
everything. About looking for Zoey, being famous, and the whole world 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Gw00pfiw3
with everyone and everything in it. It's like they never existed because862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kf2zNUdc7
even the noise around me seemed non existent.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWAZ4ACSQU
Then I felt something 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmgATHoXMtO
brush against my hand like a soft feather. The touch brought me back to 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYeidflqbit
reality and I quickly opened my eyes. I looked beside me and G-Dragon 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAL2rr9m1sJ
was staring at me.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxLNK7yw90
"What?" I asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9cwXtECAD
"Has anyone ever told you how beautiful you are?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUrO0h6lio
I blushed all of the 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1rq7ALie5c
sudden and I looked down. His hand covered mine and for a moment I 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpyIJ2gw9LG
wanted to pull away. But then again, I couldn't explain how I felt with 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwRLsZH5WRN
his hand on mine. I felt this weird comfort.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0XmoDzPnuy
I would have said yes to862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46At0PBMTZ
his question, but no words came out. This wasn't right. As much as I 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCeJIyV3l1Z
wanted him close to me, I knew I would end up getting hurt because we 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wpdJcmjmS
were never meant to be.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSyabwfSmts
"Umm," I pulled my hand away and put it closer to my body. "Please don't say that GD."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgiAG2ZEtRX
"Why?" He asked softly.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBm0vKpqqP
"Because this isn't right at all and you know it."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtJPVUGlmS
"What do you mean?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6P4ZTRj2ua
"You know that I ready know about Zoey and you. You guys are more like a couple."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoyrGqnjjjQ
"So?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZBFf6qQfIp
"I want you to stay far away from me as possible. The further we are apart, the better it is for the both of us."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVuRtjmLefs
"Looks like you figured out that I don't really like Zoey as such as I like you."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwoJv53MjCM
I didn't say anything as I continued to figure out what to say next.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Fp8DH2bk2
"Then why are you leading Zoey on? She doesn't deserve this, you know?" I asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy4xKmkPgHg
"I know."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡks4XOUn1tF
"Then why are you doing this?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6njhV1rIxU
G-Dragon looked at me like he never had before. He soon looked away and sighed.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdJgtvSngk
"I'm doing this because of you, Sam. But even if I do so, I still can't get you out of my head."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDpIm7rWwx
I also looked the other way, trying to act like those words hadn't affected me. But they did and they did so badly.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGdEdf3yciq
"You should find another862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2fDCVNF8Ug
way to do so, GD." I turned to look back at him and he faced me. "But 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5fNpLPYBce
not with Zoey. I don't want her getting hurt because of the both of us. I862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPUY3XtvRsg
will never forgive myself."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzMUmnXqDB
G-Dragon nodded his head. "I'll do so."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXWaPCmYbTG
I wanted to smile but I 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDvgZ6cpjx
couldn't bring myself to do it. I hoped he kept his word and maybe with 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrr5wg0gjne
this little talk we've had, we would be friends again and stop acting 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwuFaSo04uW
like we had beef with each other.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXbm8YAQPy
Just as I was about to 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVakqU1ftYu
ask him why he had been giving me the attitude lately and if it had 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2QLZS2x8m
anything to do with his jealousy, his phone rang. He quickly removed it 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4I8h9ozJdG
from his pocket and answered it.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDbU4pj4vF
"Hello? Christine?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7WWr1X9pS
I was now attentive. Had she found Zoey? I wished I could have talked to her myself.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76euapfHpo
"Okay, we will be right there. Inform the others as well."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbqUFMtrhe1
"What happened?" I asked after he cut the call.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9PWfHrMFAj
"Christine called to tell me that she knows where Zoey is."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzgzS1FHfx
"Where is she?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zHbFGvEnP
"She is at a famous café. I know where it is."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrIlv1tiJ35
"But how did Christine know where Zoey is?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5BcR1ub6sS
"Zoey's phone went back on and she texted where she was. And she is not alone."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnujgvTFoBk
"Who is she with?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZiJDovZ3OR
"We're about to find out. Let's go."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSoc8KX0JT
G-Dragon got up from the862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfYZr61BuQ
ground and he held out his hand to me. I took it and he pulled me up 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9o6bxsjjm5
from the ground. We left the park together, heading towards his car.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBDiqbbzBD
When we got in his car, 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjOvR3BWLY
we drove through the city and we arrived at this small fancy café. We 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4jQxElTS0m
parked across the street and before we could get out of the car, I 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2nwMcovNO5
looked across towards the café.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdLQ57zRPK2
"Can you see, Zoey?" G-Dragon asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPEFXJFcKQg
Through the huge window,862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXnoo4yIoki
I could see what was going on inside. Looked like a lot of people 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1zMzYhyd1m
enjoyed coming over to the café. The place was parked for an ordinary 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡphmCue8DGq
day in the afternoon.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvLo8dIih3B
I searched for Zoey, but862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8S2FjO63p
I couldn't see her. It was then that I saw Zoey at the far corner of 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUJSy6bW1S
the café. She was facing the window side and I saw her with someone. 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMUjEPWXOgj
Sitting opposite her was a man in a fancy looking black suit. From afar,862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJroaihmxh
I could tell his suit was expensive and I couldn't see his face.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdR5MjnL0An
"I see her," I said. "And she is definitely with someone."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIT8RtbXOwL
"Who is it?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4U4gauy2iv
"I don't know. By the look of his suit, he seems like a business man or one rich tycoon."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqMFnKnX6W
"Seriously?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ju8h91enQ
"You think I'm kidding?" I turned to look at him. "Or are you now jealous that Zoey is hanging out with someone who isn't you?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQHbR4sgJ3
G-Dragon looked towards the windshield, avoiding my gaze. "No, I'm not. I'm just wondering who it was, that's all."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡavAr3fZztl
I rolled my eyes and 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqNb4c1WZA8
said nothing more. I went back to looking at the café and focused on 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPsr81i69P1
Zoey. I decided to read her body language and see if she was okay. She 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYpha19fwYn
looked like she was enjoying herself, chatting with this stranger.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4VicblS6oJ
She was sipping her cup 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDUk5oOWP5z
of coffee and she went back to smiling at the stranger. Something was a 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCoKFuV2Zh
bit off and I shifted on my seat to see if I was seeing right.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2JEx8XGcQ
"Hey, is something wrong?" G-Dragon asked, noticing my tension.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBAFq1Kd8s5
"Ya."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5tzW8kib4
G-Dragon also turned on his seat and looked through the window.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQQPJSGio9
Zoey's smile made me 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMauBXVL22
wonder what was going on. She was smiling and chatting but she looked a 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCtDcpulTTx
little nervous. Usually when she is with a guy, she was always the one 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡejbsJuM4Fw
who was never scared of leading the conversation and became pretty862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Tz21MlE4y
comfortable with the person. Unless the guy was creepy enough to be a serial killer.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvOzkiYTa2k
I felt a threat coming 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBN6E6e2GD
up. Was this guy dangerous? Zoey had a nervous smile on her face and if I862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgkRP2mWa1d
was not mistaken, I think I noticed her fingers tap frantically on the 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKWVaV9x2Zc
table. She did that whenever she was nervous. I had to know what was 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS14lWu1A7K
going on in there.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA2f1n1gNHy
"Let's go," I said as I turned to look at G-Dragon. "I'm not liking this."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2Vzy4Hob8
"Thank you," said G-Dragon, looking relieved. "I had a bad feeling about this guy."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFe3lDOZh5
"Ya, right," I said as I grabbed the handle of the door, opened it and stepped out.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdq94wMWzht
Just as G-Dragon came 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE9Zv1JnHRP
out of the car, three cars appeared off the main road and came to park 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3jWh7xv15r
in the parking space behind G-Dragon's car. The others had arrived.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBnb9hxjZ3O
"Christine told us to meet you here," said Taeyang as he and Mike came out of his car.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkfA1M8KHSw
"Zoey's in the café," I said as I pointed across the road.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrwAy5vksRJ
"Alright, let's go," said Seungri.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5NC2GHz7hy
When I looked back at the café window, I noticed that Zoey was all alone on her table. That was odd. Where was he?862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ57msG7ARyr
"Oh, no, no, no," I said staring wide eyed inside the café.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7JwDGsODF
"What is it, Sam?" Daesung asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0HKeVL5lN
I didn't answer him as I862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpFywZttWX8
quickly dashed across the road without even checking for any cars. I 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xC55oQMUF
could hear the others behind call out to me to be careful. I luckily 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaE9BC9ld9i
managed to reach the café without getting hit.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtFHbYVK6aR
When I got to the café, a862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFA2j8aokLG
few people came out through the door. None of them matched the person 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR5dfO2gCFX
who was in the café with Zoey. I quickly went in and I found Zoey still 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjRfywViN9K
sitting in the corner. I rushed over to her that my presence scared her.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6dc3FcKnJy
"Sam! You scared me to death!" Zoey held her chest as she breathed in and out so heavily, trying to calm down.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUfGCGYMSyc
"Where did you go?" I asked, taking the seat the stranger had been sitting on earlier.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmeQ5ICys0w
"Oh, I...um.." Zoey played with her fingers.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMMDGJPSTe
"Don't you dare try to 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQv4V0vqTUo
lie to me, Zoey," I threatened. "You went with GD for lunch and the two 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3KHbNqP9RC
of you went to the park. When GD went to get ice cream, you had 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdNf4CwKMFj
disappeared. And the next thing we know, you're here."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckQiQfaNoz
"Christine told you where I was?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9UDg2y5C9L
"Of course she had to. We were worried sick."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2023qvc5TN
I heard the bell of the 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrC5uqS8tT
café ring and I knew the others had arrived. They soon came over by the 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlHi8VcI5D
table. Only Taeyang, G-Dragon and Daniel were the ones who came in.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BgSyhXVji
"Zoey where have you been?" Daniel asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtHofZZUNg
"And who was that guy you were with, huh?" G-Dragon asked, looking down at Zoey with a frown on his face.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW267gctTEv
"Awww, are you jealous, my G-Dragon?" Zoey smiled at him.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUmZlA7XPGh
"Stop taking all this 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFY1qLxDjtX
like a joke, Zoey. I saw the way you were behaving with him. You weren't862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlB1WPg789M
yourself when I saw you from across the street," I said.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡquYp8CFQ7U
The smile on Zoey's face862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXOhCzwvjd
disappeared in an instant. Good. Maybe now she would take us seriously.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvvSIJpXHkg
Her safety was way more important than she could ever imagine. If 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8XMHHexk0b
anything had happened to her, a lot of us here would never forgive 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJkSXgbkpQi
ourselves.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDlIQdMQ0OZ
"Can we please get out of here?" Taeyang suggested. "This isn't the place to discuss this."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjx8Cfmvm4C
"You're right," I said 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQ3tRP5FGE
as I looked around the café and many heads were turning our way. I hated862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyJusqlxjob
attracting so much attention sometimes.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hJvdwdYW5
The others had started 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbaXY35Xti
to leave and Zoey and I both stood up from the table. I noticed the 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpK6igk5gH
teacup the stranger had used and my mind still couldn't stop thinking 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQiYr36Z0E
about who he was.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKoPJw56f8V
After we left the café, 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxvQGnzTs2m
we went back across the road where the vehicles were parked. Daesung, 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16AUVMKxzD
TOP, Mike and Daesung stood waiting for us.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Ei6UzKmB3
"Thank goodness, you're alright, Zoey," said Daesung.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9pcjWwAPZ
"Ya, thank goodness you weren't lost," said Mike. "We wondered if we would find you in a ditch or something."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGN9iy7GNL
Zoey frowned at Mike and all he could do was smile back at her mischievously.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNmLRCFbc7
"Let's all go back to the hotel, shall we?" I suggested. "Zoey can tell us everything from there."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpFvsKtQmMS
Zoey and I went in 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtIjJqEOgBU
G-Dragon's car making sure I sat in the backseat. The others got in the 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1AUyhMdO8w
other cars and we drove off, G-Dragon's car leading the way.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfaHNeiIH7u
We were all back in the 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnWoShHyPva
hotel on our floor. Luckily, Collins wasn't around. I was relieved. Now I862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwJKTOYMcZ8
could vent out all my anger on Zoey.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr8J4ZEF08J
We gathered ourselves in862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNAOIMe315Z
the lounge. The others sat on the couch and made themselves 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBnXpBtpb0A
comfortable. Zoey and I were left standing and I looked at her, with my 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9RnZ8GNbp2
hands on my hips.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXrUCRUcZmR
"Okay, let's start with why you disappeared?" I asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWiUcZug9F3
"No, don't ask that," said G-Dragon. "Ask who she was with first."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPyWskwjKE
"I'm the one asking the questions." I turned to face G-Dragon. "I want to know what made her go like that."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkjXmpKcqdf
"Fine, I tell you," said862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasKq7xFFCM
Zoey raising her hand to calm me down. "G-Dragon went over to get some 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlAz0peMdRB
ice cream when a person came up to me. Said he was my biggest fan."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCdXJU2eBh
"Don't tell me you fell for the person's good looks like always," said Christine shaking her head.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATxXx1pSdl
"You know handsome men are my weakness," said Zoey. "Sorry G-Dragon."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVNm32cffTu
"No, I don't mind," said862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7fT74MJsik
G-Dragon, shaking his head. I looked at him again and I was surprised 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBhIUXkJKO
with the look on his face that he really didn't mind at all.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvcr5Z4AXK1
"So, he said he is your biggest fan and then what?" Taeyang asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjOmIyfAuwq
"He offered that the two of us go out for some coffee," said Zoey. "That's how I left."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznoT0sTXbW
"Now that makes no sense or maybe you have no sense, Zoey," said Seungri.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzpvKLAIDj
"Huh?" Zoey looked at Seungri, looking embarrassed.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZhfSyx5rm
"As much as that sounds 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdGLoVQILU8
totally embarrassing, Seungri is right," said Christine. "What you said 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrjOpO8CQID
doesn't make sense at all. How could you go out for coffee with someone 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvkAP73Rot8
you claims to be your fan without taking G-Dragon along with you?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ710UBiNlYI
I started to tap my foot862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJIvq5omuT
and looked at Zoey, ready to breathe out fire if necessary. Christine 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhmpoDHk7B
was right and surprisingly, Seungri too. She wasn't telling us the 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtB2gUYgxe
truth.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3tg97nJxo
"Come on, Zoey, tell us 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ9w2LwYli7
what really happened," I said. "You couldn't leave without GD. And you 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1PUhWhps8p
had your phone turned off. All I know about the person you were with is 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh87wwzv4bu
that he was wearing an expensive black suit."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPw3HPRwk0P
"Okay, do you really want to know the truth?" Zoey asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQRNnDJwAJ
"Yes!" everyone replied at the same time, that almost made Zoey jump in fright.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuSpB4tRI7w
"Okay, okay, eish," said862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7ffIYHK0P
Zoey. "You scared the hell out of me. The truth is, I went with my fan 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4r9FWecmS
because he insisted that I go with him and not tell anyone about it."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7gJKgPFTGF
"Huh?" TOP looked confused.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3RP05Uhxz
"What fan lays out that kind of condition?" Mike asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLunlZ8Tw3J
"Someone who was ready to take advantage of Zoey," I answered.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyPuNEGKomg
"If he did, you guys still wouldn't have found me," said Zoey.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWoRxkoVvg8
"If he did, you wouldn't have been looking so nervous in the café."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKAivigAncj
Zoey was quiet and I still felt that she wasn't telling us the whole truth. I decided to play along and not say a word.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHh41xC0V96
"Then what were you two talking about?" I asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV5pV5TIM3z
"Just stuff," said Zoey, avoiding my eyes. "About me and my celebrity life."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡROISHoUPuZ
"You're sure?" I asked. "Didn't he talk about himself?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLTIxTQXNt
"Ya, totally." Zoey nodded her head. He never said anything about himself. Not even his name."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr93DzW6cGr
"Then why did you look so nervous in the café?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzhBwiRn5hE
"He was asking some personal questions I didn't like."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohrKDqTjVB
"Are you sure?" Daniel 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFOn8DABQK
asked. "When someone asks you a personal question, you either snap back 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFG9kHqAZr
at them or walk away. Whether it's an annoying reporter, any of your 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCzZkhPgK6z
haters or even us."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9gOjBYjJwS
Daniel was right. Zoey 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0F8mMJ949S
would have stood and walked away from the stranger but she didn't. I 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRXmtjWFxie
wondered what question he might have asked her. That's if Zoey was 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zMQglUmbF
telling the truth.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuAn6gGYIkf
"I didn't want to look so mean in front of him," said Zoey. "He seemed like a very nice guy."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUw7mYggP8
"A very nice guy that 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUxH91POJm
made you run off with him, made you switch off your phone and made you 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXViA5FOoFs
so uncomfortable," said G-Dragon, looking really irritated.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4geExMlws
"Come on," said Zoey. "He wasn't that bad, seriously."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkwqVa6lsKg
I didn't want to 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSnmZdUFZLR
pressurise Zoey with more questions. Right now, she was getting away 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomlGctdCUw
with it. If she was hiding something, I would find out sooner or later.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjaaqC8Peu
"Okay," I said. "We're just glad you're fine."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMGZvUiPFK
"And not dead," said 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJvOGs3IuJ
Mike with a smirk. Seungri and Christine who sat on either side of him, 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPFAJrpKgRM
both gave him the elbow in the side and he howled in pain.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2knHciVbOM
"I'll pretend I never heard that," said Zoey.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgkypJVtA4C
"And you better get 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1wajq977I
ready for Collins," I said giving Zoey a smirk of my own. "We told him 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhNpi9rf6Uj
you had a bad tummy ache and that's why you weren't at the studio."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOqKz7QfvuE
"Seriously?" Zoey gave me an angry stare. "Couldn't you have told him a better lie?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemn3FJEB1y
"That you were missing? Fat chance. You've already put some of us into enough trouble for one day."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaaZGmrmxxg
"Alright. Sorry. I won't do that again."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSphJQCNHhz
I rolled my eyes, while shaking my head and went over to the dining table. Something told me it wouldn't be the last.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6tUmkRIEw
"Well, now that you're found," said Daesung, as he stood up. "Some of us better get going."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqQsm944LZ
"Sorry for putting you guys into so much trouble," said Zoey.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPf3lWvp1zj
"As long as you're fine and Collins isn't going to kill us, it's okay," said Taeyang with a smile.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoR1I9VSzjb
"I'll be leaving too," said Seungri and he gave Zoey a hug and he walked over to hug me as well.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9lOVqTV4u
"Alright, see you tomorrow," I said.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY50arqPGVm
One by one the BigBang 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwYhOAmFiM
members started to leave, saying bye to each other. G-Dragon stayed 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEmIujoWNQG
behind with Zoey so that they could talk a little. Giving them privacy, 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xWX65OL7I
Christine, my brothers and I left for our rooms.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Pag6hxeyR
When I went in my room, I862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNxdFIT0tzF
went for my phone that was still charging on my bed. The phone was 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyM28a7OPnL
still off and I decided to switch it on. It was almost full.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBupl4FU3l8
There was a knock on the door and I called out to the person to come in. Christine entered.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNTzukucMS6
"Hey, can we talk?" Christine asked as she closed the door behind her.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbc5SjOqII9
"About what?" I turned to look at her.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLoSheu1MOQ
"Do you really believe what Zoey told us?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡochgCql1h3
"No, I don't." I sat on the bed.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Jowc2m8rY
"Looks like I'm not the only one," said Christine as she came to sit on Zoey's bed, facing me.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRSLDOIYOxC
"I wonder why she isn't telling us the truth."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdY538A8R1
"Did you see the man's face?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfRQJxYvVO7
"No. All I could say is that he wore a fancy and expensive suit."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfw8xLL6Z6
"I wonder who he is. Maybe he is some rich tycoon or something."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5QcKbsNLrE
"That's what I thought too." I gave Christine a smile.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE17ailq7zr
"I bet he is good 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs5OcuYHBCh
looking too. I still wonder why Zoey left like that without telling 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNQBIvxiiE
anyone. Do you think she really did all that just because the stranger 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsL1sQj59Y2
told her to?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmX7ad8WgSX
"Well, I believe her on that part. I'm just wondering how he managed to convince her to come with him. Maybe he threatened her?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKSLcKQBfyI
Christine's jaw dropped. "Don't say that. I know there is no any other logical explanation, but I think that's way too far."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5o2Jy6gnf
"You said so yourself, Christine. There is no other explanation. He might have blackmailed her or something."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡitRmAQUa0e
"Okay, but blackmailed her with what?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCMfObOAIbX
"That we have to find out."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5v31NHqZI
I was just about to grab my phone and check out if I had any messages when Zoey came in the room.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbQUH2Y0aC
"Oh. Has GD left already?" Christine asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTG39kovMq
"Ya. He left," Zoey replied. I heard a bit of sadness in her voice.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1XVBqeywmX
"Are you okay? You don't look alright," I said.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqjshPwxON6
"I'm fine. G-Dragon and I talked about something serious."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXZFxqAYn2
Oh my. Had he told her 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXe6WmOrVbz
about what we had discussed earlier at the park? As much as I knew it 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUL9ZOilIhB
was going to hurt Zoey, it was for the best. Besides, she was going to 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh3QPjW70cy
find someone way better than G-Dragon. Hopefully, even me.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFwZriJowC2
"What did you talk about?" I asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdNQAk3jC0T
"He was just pissed that862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1EP3dyPS7
I left like that," Zoey answered. "He thought maybe he said something 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Lv6Q2A2w8
that might have upset me or something."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcooKFMXW8z
"Oh." That wasn't what I was expecting. "Well, I had asked him earlier if he had said something that might have upset you."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTgVLwY94i
"But he didn't."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSDixassI2T
"I see why Sam asked," 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwAVmddp6M
said Christine. "When someone gets you so upset, you run away. You've 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaBFYhFhMac
done that many times before back home during our school days, you know?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBcfY7l43r
"Ya I know. Forget about it." Zoey waved her hand in annoyance. "What's happened has happened."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwogJmYRv5S
And I hope it will never862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQaeplg94QK
happen again, but this guy in the suit still worried me. Until I know 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfoaKruu3iu
who he is, I wasn't going to pretend that the worst has passed when it 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMBaKBv9PZ
was yet to come at any moment.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIcpNgBT3oX
The next thing I knew, the door to our room flew open and Lee walked in.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfbNZt6OhE
"Lee!" the three of us exclaimed in excitement.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLt9D1D9qhO
"Wow! Did you guys miss me?" Lee asked with a smile on her face.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIGVZWAANPN
"Ya, we did," said Zoey, putting her arm over Lee's shoulders.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0x2x5h4pP7
"Well, I missed you too," said Lee. "So, what happened today? I heard you never finished up on the song."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkPP2oSkWJ
Christine, Zoey and I 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡULUf53WNpA
shook our heads and talked randomly at the same time, saying nothing 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlSRcC1Q2Lh
really happened. Lee knew something was up and even if it could clearly 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRq3KiyjgyR
show on her face, she didn't push us. She just smiled.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8FQVU9KoJ3
"Well, you'll tell me later," said Lee. "Collins and I were just....."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMjzRUvVRq
"Collins is here!" Zoey's face went white like a sheet.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpVoLW2S2j
"Yes, he is," said Lee 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYHmYcB5FHF
with a wicked smile. "Now if you don't want to get into trouble, I 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgeARPc3wc8
suggest you go on your bed and cry out that you still aren't feeling 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Gmw5NTZSy
well."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjw8cEoc3kJ
Christine and I almost burst out laughing. Zoey frowned.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrh5Tc7UjLf
"Ha, ha, very funny," said Zoey as she went over to her bed and sat down.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTi5sSPljIo
"As I was saying," said Lee. "We were in the lobby when we received a package from the receptionist. Said it was for you guys."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQbSAFSBCZe
"Us?" I asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2KBflBFeCM
"Ya, the letter on the package was directed to The Toxins. It's with Collins in the lounge."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡleiEmevB6I
Christine and I rushed 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1PqvSfQhRV
out of the room leaving Zoey with Lee. She had to pretend she was still 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwmngwNQU7
not feeling well. We found Collins in the lounge with the package in his862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6dUlXN7sEi
hand.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvSqzA8KU4
"Hey, Collins," I said. "What's that?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDX0HmjSCBk
"This came in for you guys," said Collins. "And with a letter too."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5Pd1SW1uV
"Did I hear there is something for us?" Daniel asked as he and Mike came in the lounge.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6JzGHLhov3
"Ya. Here you go." Collins gave me the package.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcL55JQjFHz
The package was wrapped in a brown wrapper and on top of it was a white envelope. It was directed to us just as Lee said.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdAfx5vq5OP
I took the letter and 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2MeXP5Kn7p
gave the package for Christine to hold and opened the envelope to remove862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEu2kCjWRd
a letter. I unfolded the letter and I read it out loud:862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHseXQPXOL
"Hope you're all okay. Just wanted to say I'm your biggest fan. With lots of love."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM8TPFrO9Ww
"That's it?" Mike asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZwdLicrHi
"Ya, that's pretty much it," I said, looking behind the letter but there was nothing. "No name at all."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBTSJVH9o6
"Did you see anyone who sent this?" Daniel asked Collins.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamSfMc4jlQ
"All that the 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRsKARV6Iq
receptionist told us was that some young man in a suit gave it to her 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47FWntjEvF
and she should give either you guys or us when we came by the lobby."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqU7cum8vi
My eyes went wide and my862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡje1SwNdBaJ
heart pace quickened. Did Collins just say a young man in a suit? Maybe862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzuLPY4RNE
I heard wrong and needed some clarification.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BEmBoFFuv
"A young man in a suit?" Mike asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY4tv9liIu5
"Ya. Do you perhaps know him?" Collins asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHEGKmVf04m
"Huh, no," said Christine, shaking her head.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTjVnXDCi5A
"Oh. For a moment there, you guys looked a little frightened," said Collins. "I thought you might know him."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYRe0ZuvWH
We did know him all right. The man who had been with Zoey. But who really was this guy? And this package? What could be in it?862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoaDuxXg3Yc
"Open it, Christine," said Daniel.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNNGvkNNpDS
Christine threw Daniel 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmH903On3U
an angry glance. She obviously didn't want to open it and I knew what 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhPPI0YGkp4
she was thinking. What if there was a bomb inside? Or maybe something to862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmM1FIx4jxB
threaten or blackmail us? You could only think of the worst from a 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cQNJWgfxI
person you barely even knew.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMObe6XCCz3
"Let me," I said as I took the package from Christine and I sat down on the couch with the package on my lap.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDybuyM34XJ
Collins was watching us for a second and then left the lounge. I sighed in relief and so did the others.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpa6twIWqbp
"I thought he would never leave," Mike whispered after we heard the door to Collins' room open and close.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2tIoPFMTR
"Can you check if he is really in his room?" I asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgf2vTBRX7t
Mike went in the hall and came back seconds later. "He is in the room."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiTbpI7lDkZ
"I'm really nervous," said Christine. "What is in there?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3k5dpsqxzz
"I don't know," said Daniel. "I hope it is nothing that could kill us."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhlHBDVOcT
Mike hit Daniel at the back of his head and Daniel whined in pain.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWPSWx6eAm
"Don't say that," said Mike. "I don't want to die soon."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAL87ySTkks
"Guys, calm down," I said. "Let's just open this thing and see what's in it."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZAOAWLMmM
"Okay, but take your 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlHAFgi2VBo
time," said Christine. "If there is a bomb in there, I want to say my 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUPfXrYCtlb
last prayers before I leave this earth."862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpWUiZFplUb
I rolled my eyes but I 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfi53VtHBiP
was as scared as the rest of them. If we were to make out of this alive,862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxVOz5NvWE
I was going to kill Zoey myself for dragging us into this mess.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOUp3onN4u
I started to unwrap the package. It was a white box.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2unbRfXezB
The other three couldn't862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIoHAtkPvGk
stop staring at the box and I needed to end this paranoia once and for 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP170z4jZMP
all. I quickly removed the lid without thinking that there might be 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjD8Db9pnQ0
something dangerous in the box. The others even covered their faces. But862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZThzNxRjIF
nothing happened.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkcOulmeqe
"What the....?" I looked in the box and what I saw, shocked me completely.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5McEr5h3x
"What is it?" Christine asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb0aAGmwqep
I looked up at the 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIWbbuIpdB
others and they bended over to see what was in the box. Their jaws 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSXfrj5A9Gb
dropped almost at the same time and we looked at each other.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWryFs9z3lT
"This is just ridiculous," I said as I shook my head.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnnZh2IHs4a
Christine, Mike and Daniel suddenly burst out laughing.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRFilO8UNr6
Zoey and Lee came rushing into the lounge.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgaaF1lFpN9
"Hey? What's going on?" Zoey asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2nTluncko
No one answered. I was too speechless to say anything and the rest were still laughing.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW2AogSLcIC
"What is in the package, Sam?" Lee asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUuC6Brc39l
I soon removed a little cute brown teddy bear and held it up for Zoey and Lee to see.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC80FeztLdg
"Huh? You're laughing all because of a teddy bear?" Zoey looked at the others, wondering if they were okay in the head.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh3LqRe8SmB
"Oh, my goodness, Zoey," said Christine trying to catch her breath with tears in her eyes. "Can't you see it?"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD8DYdHpqmL
"See what?" Zoey and Lee asked the same time.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡozwG29KdM2
"The...the...suit!" Mike laughed even more, pointing at the teddy bear.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0tjTET0dz
It was then that Zoey 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyuMVuRDuva
looked at the bear in my hand and recognised that the tiny teddy bear 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsZ178Onyp
wore a tiny black suit with a tiny black tie. Zoey looked like she was 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlGd7NURzh
about to get sick. Looked like she already figured out it was the862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwN5NIJaOUv
stranger who she was with today that sent it.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtSR2wyAXw2
"Guys, what am I missing here?" Lee asked.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeW4zuDF0xH
"Zoey will tell you all about it," I said. "I believe this is yours." I gave the teddy bear to Zoey who held it in her hand.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhybtFPJpNp
The other three continued to laugh when they saw Zoey take the bear. Lee looked as confused as ever.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFvjDLmPAD
"And here I thought it was a bomb," said Daniel, wiping away the tears in his eyes.862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO7M5u57VPy
"Ya. But it just turned out to be a bear in a suit," said Christine. "A harmless bear!"862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Qz9jxQXe9
This time, they laughed 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5tqCUU62hu
even louder and I couldn't help but start laughing too. A minute ago, we862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5d0406mx5S
had feared for our lives and it was for no good reason. I saw the 862Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwSiOI6GaV
