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.copyright protection288PENANAjsOtiBYcSh292Please respect copyright.PENANAMnWpOWayil
I had never been this 292Please respect copyright.PENANADDv74GWtup
late in my entire life. Not even when I had my own personal 292Please respect copyright.PENANAbb6hv9dBz7
appointments. The others would be wondering why I was so late. And 292Please respect copyright.PENANAwcqUwr691c
trying to explain the reason why, would have them blown away.copyright protection288PENANAc2zqjQksIe292Please respect copyright.PENANAwi1g7Gwqt9
"Sam, are you still there?" Zoey called out to me from our room.copyright protection288PENANAqdklBETeME292Please respect copyright.PENANA4Xi4kOWO35
I didn't want to answer. I was quite irritated. But if I didn't, she would start to freak out.copyright protection288PENANA2mu9U9nbG4292Please respect copyright.PENANAB7MprE96BZ
"Sam!"copyright protection288PENANAwkBfrUQKqK292Please respect copyright.PENANAhp4BCE8Hg6
I rolled my eyes. "I'm still here, Zoey," I answered.copyright protection288PENANAaJirwpat6K292Please respect copyright.PENANAx8ZumulIJn
Zoey came out of the 292Please respect copyright.PENANArW1lSVuZxh
room and came to the lounge where I was seated waiting for her. I was on292Please respect copyright.PENANAWnk5iC9Q1s
the couch and I looked at her, then back at my watch.copyright protection288PENANAAqRJDFGOsO292Please respect copyright.PENANAWisdCNPBtC
"Did you find what you're looking for?" I asked.copyright protection288PENANA6Qm9cwPar7292Please respect copyright.PENANAlkhqy84N3x
"No, I haven't," said Zoey.copyright protection288PENANAiSfujsEP4O292Please respect copyright.PENANA9YhaE2J9nm
"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."copyright protection288PENANA902ijzYOqr292Please respect copyright.PENANAGbPQch4EmI
"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.copyright protection288PENANAlgYGPBQm5y292Please respect copyright.PENANA0npzk7cTiW
"Zoey, it's just a stud and you have plenty of those like it in your jewellery box."copyright protection288PENANALcgCTOzca6292Please respect copyright.PENANA063hMXF5Ek
"But those are my favourite studs," said Zoey. "You know they are diamond, right?"copyright protection288PENANAcRbGc05WS9292Please respect copyright.PENANA3kvF7TiSUy
"I know because I bought you those studs for your birthday a year ago."copyright protection288PENANAMCsAklJDSH292Please respect copyright.PENANA08B9KGXH7N
"Oh. Ya, I know." Zoey had a look on her face that told me she forgot about that.copyright protection288PENANABaX1RGD9lx292Please respect copyright.PENANAZWemknldlK
I ignored her and said, 292Please respect copyright.PENANAhhpyfwAfu9
"just get another pair of studs or don't put on any at all. For my sake.292Please respect copyright.PENANAwioNOiFhCK
And Collins' too. We were supposed to be at the studio at 10."copyright protection288PENANAuPRJ8WWWi3292Please respect copyright.PENANAtKJ6vQuO7D

"Let me go get my phone."copyright protection288PENANA2wMnMVndcb292Please respect copyright.PENANAgMzDVe4PGh
Zoey rushed back to the 292Please respect copyright.PENANApRV8wdHFgh
room and I hoped she wasn't going to get back to looking for her missing292Please respect copyright.PENANAM2z3Bp7Yct
stud. She sometimes did the opposite of what she had to do. But anyway,292Please respect copyright.PENANA5Knp16ksur
that was Zoey.copyright protection288PENANAYTpCOD0ONE292Please respect copyright.PENANAdguMhtBQFA
I soon received a 292Please respect copyright.PENANAvQeB12N8IB
message from Collins threatening me to get to the studio as soon as 292Please respect copyright.PENANA0EhcNj6qqS
possible. In no less than five minutes. I moaned. He knew we couldn't 292Please respect copyright.PENANAJD6NMKJjjB

"I'm coming."copyright protection288PENANAtdHBNUwpTl292Please respect copyright.PENANABWVIgwAQXu
I started heading 292Please respect copyright.PENANA6OONfAm1zW
towards the elevator and my phone beeped again. Another message. 292Please respect copyright.PENANAWN3uJsfY0f
Hopefully it wasn't Collins again telling us he would hang us to death 292Please respect copyright.PENANAnMEjwPw2Xf
if we didn't make it in time. But I was surprised to see an unknown 292Please respect copyright.PENANAgK7VG61DQA
number. A number coming from another country.copyright protection288PENANAp2TBOLCb5K292Please respect copyright.PENANABeSz3RzGIf
"Oh, who is this?"copyright protection288PENANAUS9MFHYBBi292Please respect copyright.PENANAJygoMuW10t
Before I could open the message icon, Zoey came rushing from behind and bumped into my back. That almost made me drop my phone.copyright protection288PENANA9Bu25PrB2j292Please respect copyright.PENANAQgLBtGI5y4
"My goodness, Zoey!" I said as I looked at her. "You should look where you're going. I almost dropped my phone."copyright protection288PENANAQb8FL4giKv292Please respect copyright.PENANAe5RvkV9RGc
"Sorry," said Zoey as she also looked at me.copyright protection288PENANAXOT7Q7XswW292Please respect copyright.PENANAQYliVsYskx
"Come on, we're already late."copyright protection288PENANAorpWMuwHlE292Please respect copyright.PENANAawzoRUF2DO
We went into the 292Please respect copyright.PENANAxp1RvS7OkO
elevator and I put my phone away in my jeans jacket pocket. A black 292Please respect copyright.PENANAQPt2tMilnS
Chevrolet SUV was waiting for us outside. The others had already left 292Please respect copyright.PENANAMayUZ8OfGD
for the studio and I had stayed behind because of Zoey's missing stud.copyright protection288PENANAzyWP4w6len292Please respect copyright.PENANAEU9Il0HJT7
When we got to YG, 292Please respect copyright.PENANA8p17zVe92U
Collins stood there by the entrance, obviously waiting for us. He looked292Please respect copyright.PENANACu7XNsoCVf
like an angry father ready to scold at his kids for coming home late.copyright protection288PENANAor14xbngpZ292Please respect copyright.PENANAeMDXZQITa1
"Don't tell me all this is your doing, Zoey," said Collins as we approached him.copyright protection288PENANATWFyyYA0bB292Please respect copyright.PENANALmlYocMicm
"No, no, it's not," said Zoey as she shook her head.copyright protection288PENANA0VOenezSes292Please respect copyright.PENANAD4uTNV10Mt
"Says the person who isn't wearing her studs today."copyright protection288PENANAF3UTP6cVT9292Please respect copyright.PENANATvxnvfUUqB
Zoey held her earlobes 292Please respect copyright.PENANAt2NVQ8FYjd
and looked at me with a surprised look on her face. I shrugged. I had to292Please respect copyright.PENANAtGz7BNIVWq
tell Collins why we delayed over the phone. At least he believed me, 292Please respect copyright.PENANAt81vIE6Kpx
knowing that he already knew what was Zoey was like.copyright protection288PENANAFq7ihocVt2292Please respect copyright.PENANADwzaExU1mL
"Come on, the others are waiting and they didn't want to start without you," said Collins.copyright protection288PENANAcY7mSxM8UY292Please respect copyright.PENANACHJ0abZzsh
"They had to wait," said Zoey, flipping her hair. "I'm singing the first verse alongside G-Dragon."copyright protection288PENANACokLT5Jj8Z292Please respect copyright.PENANAJAe8S4No3k
"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.copyright protection288PENANAyaCxGl7hhb292Please respect copyright.PENANAvYFYr7s0Br
"I'll try." I smiled. Zoey stuck out her tongue at Collins.copyright protection288PENANA2cvVODeYgM292Please respect copyright.PENANANUWamOOfID
We got to the studio and we found everyone else waiting for us, lazing around on the couch.copyright protection288PENANABMRXBpnSeH292Please respect copyright.PENANA2GLkz2qAjt
"Hey, you're finally here," said Seungri.copyright protection288PENANAbFHGEJl6TM292Please respect copyright.PENANAqpkl7pC3y5
"Sorry, we had an issue back at the hotel," said Zoey.copyright protection288PENANA2vKnw3cooo292Please respect copyright.PENANADN2s0xxwIQ
"Ya. A 'serious' one." I said as I rolled my eyes.copyright protection288PENANAAsEqBjbUpE292Please respect copyright.PENANA4WXX3KOOBx
"I can't wait to get started," said Daniel excitedly as he stood up from the couch.copyright protection288PENANAU5zYhRoYDC292Please respect copyright.PENANAugoO8tBZgk
"Then let's do so," said292Please respect copyright.PENANAsNExUcIBBZ
Collins as he joined the music producer by the console. "Zoey, Taeyang,292Please respect copyright.PENANAke9SGoLwJZ
Christine, Sam and G-Dragon, we will start with you guys."copyright protection288PENANA4rFrFeGYeB292Please respect copyright.PENANAtWd31wjVh6
I had completely forgot 292Please respect copyright.PENANAOrT5DfI8wh
that G-Dragon was even in the room. I hadn't noticed him at all when he 292Please respect copyright.PENANAmSzEgTirTJ
stood up from the couch and came towards Zoey and I.copyright protection288PENANARkpE5joAWw292Please respect copyright.PENANAWqs9cS357P
"Hi, Zoey," G-Dragon greeted Zoey.copyright protection288PENANAvXIZIOnRMF292Please respect copyright.PENANAzG8UMd76cH
"Hi," said Zoey with a wide smile on her face.copyright protection288PENANAfp7pp1Fxrs292Please respect copyright.PENANAYxt3e96c4V
"Ahem," Christine came from behind as she cleared her throat. "Let's go. You two can talk later."copyright protection288PENANAWzk6PFgxmY292Please respect copyright.PENANAvRXP81vUlH
I rolled my eyes and together with Taeyang and Christine, we went into the live room together, followed by the two love birds.copyright protection288PENANALL1Je2pInS292Please respect copyright.PENANAXTF3uYjdpo
In the live room, there 292Please respect copyright.PENANAAvX5ihLMXA

Ahead of us was a window where we could see the others from the other side.copyright protection288PENANAUVpsHgzRQP292Please respect copyright.PENANAy2NuR980NK
"Are you guys ready?" Collins asked as his voice was heard through the speaker in the live room.copyright protection288PENANAR2Odi4cEsQ292Please respect copyright.PENANALyf2Q3vMGO
I looked at the others 292Please respect copyright.PENANAu05kzgo0LX
to see if they were settled and gave Collins a thumbs up and the music 292Please respect copyright.PENANAEkvhcCMrB4
producer started to play the tune for the song.copyright protection288PENANARLp1k3s0Rm292Please respect copyright.PENANA1IHmGr1x8l
G-Dragon started to sing292Please respect copyright.PENANAuLy9kzgOFz
and then afterwards, Zoey followed. Their voices blended so well with 292Please respect copyright.PENANAT9pKQAOesn
the music, they made a perfect harmony. Looked like I did a good thing 292Please respect copyright.PENANAghfLLtsAtn
to let them sing the first verse together.copyright protection288PENANAMKe3EygBq6292Please respect copyright.PENANAJxdQVHQXtz
Collins, the music 292Please respect copyright.PENANA74FlcFwXxB

They were loving it alright. Collins gave them a thumbs up.copyright protection288PENANAQ2bO30K82r292Please respect copyright.PENANAyYfukQYmF6
Christine then sang the 292Please respect copyright.PENANAF2N1y0j2hX
bridge and as she came came closer to the chorus, I joined in. Then 292Please respect copyright.PENANA6Kazgy2QR7
Taeyang and I sang the chorus together.copyright protection288PENANAc6xwhyIyZS292Please respect copyright.PENANASH7lfp5Hkr
When we were done, the music producer stopped playing the track.copyright protection288PENANAoQYQC1xePn292Please respect copyright.PENANAdMucbxhK6m
"That was awesome, guys," said Collins as his voice came out through the speaker. "The song is so incredible."copyright protection288PENANAITBFUlyCD0292Please respect copyright.PENANAwIeqgB8d7T
"Ya, thank Sam," said Taeyang. "She is the one who came out with all of this."copyright protection288PENANAc3dRtlznKl292Please respect copyright.PENANAJiAFmurXn8
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."copyright protection288PENANAD1Nj7vJFmb292Please respect copyright.PENANAYCfQXxtQJ9
"Okay, Sam and Taeyang, I292Please respect copyright.PENANAVcyvG1TAHH

more high tempo and see how it sounds," said the music producer.copyright protection288PENANAcNydYoF9Oo292Please respect copyright.PENANAaxb75t6wHo
"Okay," Taeyang and I said at the same time.copyright protection288PENANA7s6X7JUBWJ292Please respect copyright.PENANA0b15VFIp03
"Shall GD and I leave then?" Zoey asked.copyright protection288PENANAJN85LWkn85292Please respect copyright.PENANAySfRpSP6qj
"You may," said Collins,292Please respect copyright.PENANA1JjqNS22kU
looking a little irritated on his face. "But don't leave the studio. 292Please respect copyright.PENANAMhFh4yF4Xj

If I hadn't known 292Please respect copyright.PENANAM6fphJldzW
better, something told me Zoey and G-Dragon were up to something. They 292Please respect copyright.PENANAexDt7NXGvD
looked like little mischievous children as they smiled at each other and292Please respect copyright.PENANAPMN2Ru6Im9
they walked out of the live room. I couldn't help but feel a little 292Please respect copyright.PENANA9EUyySPcx6
hollow inside.copyright protection288PENANAJgDH79M7Ge292Please respect copyright.PENANAvklKEnFIdm
"So, we will start from Christine's part," said the music producer.copyright protection288PENANAkli48QF6Rn292Please respect copyright.PENANAKfstzmz46f

the song and later on, TOP, Mike, Daesung, Seungri and Daniel also came 292Please respect copyright.PENANA8zmF8UKfoV
into the live room. It took us a while to record the whole song, trying 292Please respect copyright.PENANAqwJT2Acqqz
to make our vocals blend in with the song but we were done.copyright protection288PENANAVEgDH29RdB292Please respect copyright.PENANAYXBiN1Ob8L
"Great job guys," said Collins. "Let's break up for lunch and then we can come back and work on the backup vocals."copyright protection288PENANAfhewQzkUoM292Please respect copyright.PENANApuy61jdPsQ
"Alright," said Mike as he took out his headphones. "I'm pretty hungry now."copyright protection288PENANAIcbEp3EfEJ292Please respect copyright.PENANA22VX15Syns

"Ya," said TOP. "Why don't we all go somewhere special for lunch?"copyright protection288PENANAHeINl5s53H292Please respect copyright.PENANAfnHmrZPgHj

"Fine, an hour and a half."copyright protection288PENANA6LfhMSOaIU292Please respect copyright.PENANAlsDu5dya0P

"How did you do that?" Daesung asked as we all walked out of the live room.copyright protection288PENANA8v4waIhLn0292Please respect copyright.PENANAZhQ7ndoEP1

Daniel. "You might not know it, but Collins listens to you because you 292Please respect copyright.PENANAQz7QSTJhmK

attention, especially from the customers.copyright protection288PENANA2YUFbaexy2292Please respect copyright.PENANALO5fwT0zQd
I had to admit, the 292Please respect copyright.PENANA5MKoZfyLy7

I walked into the restaurant with the others, a fancy glass chandelier 292Please respect copyright.PENANAjtdnSc6VZR

A smartly dressed 292Please respect copyright.PENANAcZqb79ZFPi
waiter, who by the way, was super cute, came over. He gave us a friendly292Please respect copyright.PENANAP4S1FLGFXz
smile and I felt Christine nudge me by the shoulder and when I turned 292Please respect copyright.PENANAVIdeWdmqZ0
to her, she was smiling. Looked like she also noticed the waiter's good 292Please respect copyright.PENANAqg824pbvb7
looks too. Damn! Why were Korean men so good looking?copyright protection288PENANAi29OuenhM6292Please respect copyright.PENANAhoqELjE5qy
We were escorted to a 292Please respect copyright.PENANAjbdQZV5LVm

me and I sat down, thanking him as he took his seat beside me. Seungri 292Please respect copyright.PENANAkJQevHIzny

As we were having our 292Please respect copyright.PENANA5Kz4I4SjxP
dessert, we were chatting and there was a lot of laughter all around our292Please respect copyright.PENANAq8rcvkggCO
table. It was fun to be like this, all together as good friends and 292Please respect copyright.PENANASQVOX4kNcm
laughing about. I kind of wished Zoey and GD were here. I bet they were 292Please respect copyright.PENANABittZZzxMf

While I was having my 292Please respect copyright.PENANAwMCuETMXBF
strawberry cake, I felt the vibration of my phone in my pocket. Must be a292Please respect copyright.PENANA6ChnaBDwPP
message. I took out my phone and I was shocked to see that the same 292Please respect copyright.PENANAs1MqpPjqh8

I tapped on the message 292Please respect copyright.PENANAQcu37WvT52

the next message was more surprising.copyright protection288PENANA84bwj9PQAm292Please respect copyright.PENANAhltnyBVcaT

the question. Had this had to do with the photo? Must be or else the 292Please respect copyright.PENANAlBrcfxN34y
unknown person wouldn't have texted me this message.copyright protection288PENANAqe7ejrHjbI292Please respect copyright.PENANA8m4hCYe2P1
I decided to turn my data on and download the photo. Just as I was about to, my phone went off.copyright protection288PENANAEJ5W2kOj5g292Please respect copyright.PENANAOfHdpTUx0U

"Nothing, my phone went dead. I hadn't charged it last night."copyright protection288PENANAcwyN0O4OMk292Please respect copyright.PENANAM8Rvd8HFnN
"Was there something important you wanted to do?" Taeyang asked.copyright protection288PENANA0LWVaMr0AK292Please respect copyright.PENANAZVqZo55a2W
"Not really, it's not important." I shook my head but my thoughts still lingered on the unknown photo.copyright protection288PENANAR1lMg0DAdP292Please respect copyright.PENANAUoqS1EJwgo
"Did Zoey text you back?" Christine asked.copyright protection288PENANAGxUOwnKdhr292Please respect copyright.PENANAQMyVi0pjUx
"No, why?" I asked as I picked up a piece of strawberry cake with my fork.copyright protection288PENANAqx3Vov4vsP292Please respect copyright.PENANAAf2FPhTaxY

"Isn't it freaking obvious?" said Daesung. "Those two seem like a couple now."copyright protection288PENANAW8YBIsCI9m292Please respect copyright.PENANAytd1DDlb1m
I almost choked on my cake but instead, I cleared my throat. Christine rolled her eyes.copyright protection288PENANAwRDtSCeuA7292Please respect copyright.PENANAU84JZeUmT9
"Well, that wasn't going to go on unnoticed forever," she said.copyright protection288PENANAnE9YgijY88292Please respect copyright.PENANAyFL3KnEmyM

"They have always been close," said Seungri. "But this time, they are just way too close."copyright protection288PENANAmbdYjVUs3S292Please respect copyright.PENANASdZWkFYDo3
"For them to disappear like that together, it counts for something, right?" TOP suggested.copyright protection288PENANAoCfp5XaXb5292Please respect copyright.PENANAoma5NiU6oW
"Can we please stop 292Please respect copyright.PENANACxtbUkSl4l

"No, let me," said 292Please respect copyright.PENANACoLePbYsGi
Christine, as she put her hand on mine and looking at me convincingly to292Please respect copyright.PENANAjb9EV2vX5K
allow her to say what she wanted to say.copyright protection288PENANAMBW6SI22Rd292Please respect copyright.PENANAO9WFH7eOze
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.copyright protection288PENANAT9sWChFHq0292Please respect copyright.PENANAfgjetGuPtp
"Because, Collins gave 292Please respect copyright.PENANAwNeNDULkjU
these girls a golden rule when we were coming here," said Daniel. "And 292Please respect copyright.PENANAM2KfgjSQrv

Never."copyright protection288PENANAAdf4LuMVPz292Please respect copyright.PENANAGmsZhRRcLw
There was silence on the292Please respect copyright.PENANAMV9E8OIvlw
table and I couldn't help but feel a little downcast. Christine 292Please respect copyright.PENANAznlOfhqQyg
continued to eat her dessert like nothing serious had been said. I 292Please respect copyright.PENANAQatFIOro1K
looked over at my brothers who seem to be enjoying our humiliation.copyright protection288PENANAfoWpWEfCd9292Please respect copyright.PENANA4NKrgRXhfm
"Is that true?" Seungri asked, looking over at me.copyright protection288PENANAgGn6OiEG5n292Please respect copyright.PENANAXF8TqVujTl

"Who cares? It's not like it's that serious," said TOP as he shrugged.copyright protection288PENANAmphIdSZ0qC292Please respect copyright.PENANA7TpPnoS4FZ
"It's serious to 292Please respect copyright.PENANAcKj9evoehX
Collins," I said as I turned to look at TOP. "We're only here to 292Please respect copyright.PENANAUhNEn5wGEa

That was odd coming out 292Please respect copyright.PENANAK4PFsDWk28

with looks on their faces that I couldn't describe. This was 292Please respect copyright.PENANAAt6ydEV8mP
embarrassing. My hands were now curled into fists as they rested on my 292Please respect copyright.PENANAK33bRQVfqO

I really did. Something 292Please respect copyright.PENANArJziKlL6lG

I quickly closed the 292Please respect copyright.PENANAsHSiqw3cUL

the door. My hands flew to my hair and I took a deep breath. I walked 292Please respect copyright.PENANALpulskUOlG
over to the sink and stared at myself in the mirror.copyright protection288PENANALaBmevwK9K292Please respect copyright.PENANALGC2svG9rX
"What's wrong with you today?" I asked my reflection.copyright protection288PENANArmu1RbfrYe292Please respect copyright.PENANA8g0aZvRlXy
I shook my head and I 292Please respect copyright.PENANAopC0R1fKyb
knew I wasn't alright. Something was definitely wrong. Was it the fact 292Please respect copyright.PENANAnpUEcjkerE
that Zoey and G-Dragon were together? As far as I know, I wasn't really 292Please respect copyright.PENANAzIhUOMuO01
supposed to care. But I did.copyright protection288PENANAwSopbrasNL292Please respect copyright.PENANA3m8lSPxTLy
I looked at myself and I292Please respect copyright.PENANAfWhjfZ7xIu
could see the sadness in my eyes. Were they for G-Dragon? I shook my 292Please respect copyright.PENANA7a6pvDDkjQ
head at the thought. No. They weren't. He and I were still at war with 292Please respect copyright.PENANAZMcdq2yMbS
each other and that made no sense. I had to stop thinking about these 292Please respect copyright.PENANAvBYcdpIftL
things and focus on what's really important.copyright protection288PENANAJGCHseja0N292Please respect copyright.PENANACNswBzNl9l
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.copyright protection288PENANAg7FIeUftXa292Please respect copyright.PENANAiEjetNS7K5

guys thought of now? If it was what I thought it was, I would rather 292Please respect copyright.PENANAviKxG36TnI
not hear it. There was a moment of silence at the table.copyright protection288PENANA43Wut8r8Uv292Please respect copyright.PENANAFddGdkBvZC
"Zoey has you so worked up that you're irritated," said TOP.copyright protection288PENANAefZ9yMLuCG292Please respect copyright.PENANAO7bEK26QtL

While Christine was one 292Please respect copyright.PENANA1OEFgVUAXo
who at least had her hormones in check, Zoey and I were pretty much 292Please respect copyright.PENANA0Ifza2mwHV
guilty. I couldn't tell who was worse between either of us. I bet I was 292Please respect copyright.PENANAcUW5P29Wm3
worse.copyright protection288PENANAZDeCwsW7mX292Please respect copyright.PENANAjHNmYDVjrn

looking over at my brothers who looked set on tearing TOP apart. And I 292Please respect copyright.PENANAnpFu3jFFbA
caught a glimpse of Daesung rolling his eyes at TOP. "You would end up 292Please respect copyright.PENANAvYTm90baI1
regretting it."copyright protection288PENANAGyH0wpBPs8292Please respect copyright.PENANAVw0uvlXekV

because Sam says so." He gave me that killer bad boy smile of his and I 292Please respect copyright.PENANAJBtE7u2CNa
blushed.copyright protection288PENANA3XkGUfJnAr292Please respect copyright.PENANANp8rn1aBYp
"Well, we better go," said Taeyang.copyright protection288PENANA7bSRlbQVpq292Please respect copyright.PENANAWEcKczJ18I

that something was wrong, just by the look on his face. "What's wrong?"292Please respect copyright.PENANAxwW0TF9YFl

"And we have to do something with Collins," said Taeyang.copyright protection288PENANAOZEjCmYAmx292Please respect copyright.PENANAtzlNTMenhr
"Did someone say my name?"copyright protection288PENANABZVtFDWFrk292Please respect copyright.PENANA6uwnww4y3u
I cringed. He was one 292Please respect copyright.PENANAJ1miCRfI33
person I wasn't ready to face right now. Everyone else wasn't ready to 292Please respect copyright.PENANARllHQN1UZN
either. We slowly turned to look behind us and Collins stood there with 292Please respect copyright.PENANAurMkpJBBJD
the music producer.copyright protection288PENANAFlNPCuAHeZ292Please respect copyright.PENANAvPiCVKldi5
"Why are you all looking worried like someone has gone missing?" Collins asked.copyright protection288PENANAikCCS9DKpW292Please respect copyright.PENANAegJqygXaUB
I sighed. If only he knew. But if he does find out, he wasn't going to forgive us that easily.copyright protection288PENANA6ix1E7Q4Go292Please respect copyright.PENANAwG0N6Lc22j
Collins looked on at us, waiting to answer him. What to do now! We were going to be in such big trouble.copyright protection288PENANAkNhiToMcuT292Please respect copyright.PENANAGu4cCgeDW9
"Looks like you aren't 292Please respect copyright.PENANA84TC8WhLol
going to answer me, so let's get back to work," said Collins turning 292Please respect copyright.PENANAp9yIzSkQJx
away from us and heading towards the console.copyright protection288PENANA8OTUFy9Gga292Please respect copyright.PENANA41wy9Px2lM
"We will work on the backup vocals," said Collins. "Zoey, Sam and Christine, you're up."copyright protection288PENANANya4xjPOlP292Please respect copyright.PENANAP57DkqaDJH
I looked at the others 292Please respect copyright.PENANAz5YTxIU2MG
who hadn't said a word. We all looked at each other. Someone had to do 292Please respect copyright.PENANAfJT9xfWSEb
something or else we would be toast.copyright protection288PENANAF541frdbBn292Please respect copyright.PENANA3HCsGOwI4E
"Are we going to start?" Collins asked looking behind him as he turned on his chair. "Where is Zoey?"copyright protection288PENANAfyBHWdhsvm292Please respect copyright.PENANAU41Io2saHw
It was about time he noticed. It looks like we ourselves weren't ready to tell him that Zoey is missing.copyright protection288PENANA9Qk62K3HKW292Please respect copyright.PENANATTzGNZzZ9m
"What's wrong with you, guys? Why aren't you saying anything?"copyright protection288PENANA6XwksAQjbv292Please respect copyright.PENANAP3BBrIH1kq
"Zoey isn't here," said Mike.copyright protection288PENANAAIsyOd1fsP292Please respect copyright.PENANAgjMULwNBhM
"Ya, I can see that. Where is she?"copyright protection288PENANA08VaJkFpUx292Please respect copyright.PENANA28CR9MJuoL
"She wasn't feeling too well," I said. "So she went back to the hotel."copyright protection288PENANAr3XkZK84fZ292Please respect copyright.PENANAmbNT6LYpOY
"What? Did she eat something bad for lunch?"copyright protection288PENANAc3ikxXZU1k292Please respect copyright.PENANAqjP8DFHoEt
"Ya. She did," said G-Dragon.copyright protection288PENANAsDaaxLx5c5292Please respect copyright.PENANADB7aCz6PY7
"So, do you think we should continue or do this tomorrow when Zoey is around?" I asked.copyright protection288PENANAvsbemAGDkE292Please respect copyright.PENANAaibbD1Orti
"We should just do this tomorrow," the music producer suggested, turning to Collins.copyright protection288PENANAc1PbkN4AeF292Please respect copyright.PENANA1pybOyWyrW
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.copyright protection288PENANAoIWlsfHq7v292Please respect copyright.PENANAGuJm7wPwNd
"Fine," said Collins. "We really need Zoey, so we should just do it tomorrow."copyright protection288PENANA0uMymJhVnh292Please respect copyright.PENANAdBUuHykKiL
Mike and Daniel almost 292Please respect copyright.PENANA4kDObufjhR
jumped with relief but they managed to control themselves. Christine 292Please respect copyright.PENANArkfDzmqYLQ
turned around so that Collins and the music producer wouldn't notice her292Please respect copyright.PENANASpSKI826fM
sighing in relief. The rest of us just stood there, pocker faced.copyright protection288PENANABqVLYoL0kf292Please respect copyright.PENANAwbBSErr53f
"That's fine," said Taeyang.copyright protection288PENANA1Kx7iIF0GN292Please respect copyright.PENANAPdgOi5n2r6
"I really wanted us to be done with this today," said Collins.copyright protection288PENANAv0MuaKaUUL292Please respect copyright.PENANAZ2AUdRDeG7
"Looks like it wasn't meant to be," said TOP.copyright protection288PENANAwvmlLuWvcR292Please respect copyright.PENANA3tOuPazBFj
Ya. It wasn't meant to be. Looks like we were lucky. That meant we could look around for Zoey.copyright protection288PENANAZLkqN0ZhBB292Please respect copyright.PENANAcExgg9Nibi
"You guys can go back to the hotel and make sure Zoey is okay," said Collins.copyright protection288PENANAEZPF5cFSjH292Please respect copyright.PENANAgXuf2HmdYb
"I'll go," said Christine. "The others can stay here if they want to."copyright protection288PENANAoH8JsLkDex292Please respect copyright.PENANAqpZnGo9DTI
Christine was doing the 292Please respect copyright.PENANA02Zh5fdf4w
right thing. If she went to the hotel, Collins wouldn't be so suspicious292Please respect copyright.PENANAEeL8wZoj2T
of what's going on and just in case he decides to go back there at 292Please respect copyright.PENANANrEQlosSxY
anytime, Christine might cover up for Zoey.copyright protection288PENANAEO9xWK7fFH292Please respect copyright.PENANAEqgimbTnW6
"Okay and what will the rest of you all be doing?" Collins asked.copyright protection288PENANAccYzOQGO62292Please respect copyright.PENANAFj7c82890U
"Chilling," G-Dragon and I replied at the same time. We both looked at each other afterwards.copyright protection288PENANADLP2dFIYsS292Please respect copyright.PENANA6bYXPkCxPK
"Fine, I have some other things to attend to. I might just go and check up on Lee and Yang Hyun-suk."copyright protection288PENANAD4RFDgr6VZ292Please respect copyright.PENANAKFqBslNgpz
I wanted to ask where, 292Please respect copyright.PENANAblKkdA83Da
but I knew it was none of my business. I realised that I hadn't seen Lee292Please respect copyright.PENANAyxrcXye2Ji
the whole day. Must be she was busy with Yang Hyun-suk. Collins and the292Please respect copyright.PENANAEo4ct7wESv
music producer soon left.copyright protection288PENANABp5N6LmPtB292Please respect copyright.PENANAuGokAL4axm
I walked over to the door and checked if Collins and the music producer were in the hall. But they were gone.copyright protection288PENANAjq4UgZt6Le292Please respect copyright.PENANAgivN51vIhn
"Looks like we have to split up and look for Zoey," said Taeyang.copyright protection288PENANAKBXQBlAtN6292Please respect copyright.PENANA3bewE4PJKO
"Ya, we should," I 292Please respect copyright.PENANAu14VUHqVrO
nodded my head. "G-Dragon and I will take Christine to the hotel just in292Please respect copyright.PENANA2v6xrwjdNz
case Zoey shows up and if Collins decides to go there."copyright protection288PENANAWqaiorstDP292Please respect copyright.PENANAU6X0zSFfyq
"I'll go with Taeyang," said Daniel.copyright protection288PENANAkJJ4ysocjQ292Please respect copyright.PENANAPgbC3Dvv8D
"And I go with Seungri," said Mike.copyright protection288PENANArwaE2jS07k292Please respect copyright.PENANA40ZsiAT9iy
"That leaves Daesung and I," said TOP.copyright protection288PENANAcbZzXvLe88292Please respect copyright.PENANAabot9lOlH6
"Great, let's go," I said and we all walked out of the room.copyright protection288PENANAaXdVZOcLfF292Please respect copyright.PENANA6C5JtMK3PV
As soon as we left the 292Please respect copyright.PENANAH4Bpm5TyRP
YG building, we split up in the parking lot. Luckily, Collins had 292Please respect copyright.PENANAVMR1jaTVQE
already left. Christine and I went with G-Dragon in his car. It was 292Please respect copyright.PENANAaJe9LXPGzh
important that I had to talk to G-Dragon concerning Zoey.copyright protection288PENANA9mLU5oOBIm292Please respect copyright.PENANAPGx5Q4yXFF
We soon arrived at the hotel and Christine got out of the car. I gave her my phone for it to be charged.copyright protection288PENANAeKVnsgANbi292Please respect copyright.PENANA2KcMw8hHZj
"Call us if anything good happens," I said I looked at Christine through the window.copyright protection288PENANA38d5XrrXo2292Please respect copyright.PENANAVxcTyyfTTi
"And what if something bad happens?" Christine asked.copyright protection288PENANAIZUGtFsd6g292Please respect copyright.PENANAYwd23rvKdW
"Like Collins? You can handle it," I said as I gave her a smile. Christine winked and wished us luck.copyright protection288PENANA3onrick96y292Please respect copyright.PENANAKrfqMXhNcU
G-Dragon drove away and 292Please respect copyright.PENANAOPqkZInwdo
we first went to the park where he came with Zoey after lunch. I just 292Please respect copyright.PENANAvcfxwzwVPe
hope she didn't go that far and that she was okay.copyright protection288PENANA5PydFIC02R292Please respect copyright.PENANA34XBk1TGnq
"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.copyright protection288PENANA820wWhRaej292Please respect copyright.PENANA4P1mLbNh9r
"What?"copyright protection288PENANAcqcQQWPb8O292Please respect copyright.PENANAueIrHLA9yh
"Did you two argue?"copyright protection288PENANAE3uiNzMpes292Please respect copyright.PENANAGn8hnQ8GYY
"No, we didn't," said G-Dragon as he went around me and started walking towards the park.copyright protection288PENANASo4y5CMeih292Please respect copyright.PENANAejwtVy9Mdz
I quickly turned and followed him. When I caught up with him, I stood in front of him to stop him.copyright protection288PENANA3EHuZ8onPa292Please respect copyright.PENANAJ2E7kXP9Ro
"Are you telling me the truth?" I asked.copyright protection288PENANABtUYfxkGJw292Please respect copyright.PENANARcymbb7Iw1
"Do you think I am lying?" G-Dragon asked.copyright protection288PENANAdCMVtSn1Rt292Please respect copyright.PENANAhXezFoMXd5
"I think so." I said with my arms folded.copyright protection288PENANAF0SdRU94fS292Please respect copyright.PENANASoZBvGTQNi
"You're crazy," said G-Dragon as he walked around me again.copyright protection288PENANAlflvxVDseC292Please respect copyright.PENANAqdLm6LVm3F
I huffed. He wasn't going to budge. I had to try something to get the truth out of him.copyright protection288PENANACAk4RkqB6J292Please respect copyright.PENANAwk7ARZBWxd
With quick strides, I 292Please respect copyright.PENANAJ774IPscJd
caught up with him again. This time I started to walk backwards so that I292Please respect copyright.PENANAEZ6dVEmrYS
could look at him directly in his face.copyright protection288PENANAuUA2ge2DnL292Please respect copyright.PENANAK78gu8vdhp
"What are you doing?" G-Dragon asked as he looked at me, puzzled.copyright protection288PENANABFajal8yRH292Please respect copyright.PENANAZcWSkYRuf0
"I want you to tell me the truth."copyright protection288PENANA25N9o1bq47292Please respect copyright.PENANAp01hrfBo9X
"You're stressing yourself out by walking backwards."copyright protection288PENANAzt5H1sTexY292Please respect copyright.PENANAvyLPOgPs2m
"Do I care?" I raised an eyebrow at him. "I know you're hiding something from me."copyright protection288PENANAhyHUecuNEZ292Please respect copyright.PENANAMLS3w6eydn
G-Dragon chuckled and 292Please respect copyright.PENANAprPNxmb58q
that almost made me smile. "Stop playing detective, my little kitty. As 292Please respect copyright.PENANAnXK1WVYr6r
much as it suits you, you're going to trip over and fall."copyright protection288PENANA7SWuh6LAPt292Please respect copyright.PENANANke0CoSHRL
"Then you have to stop me from walking backwards by answering my question."copyright protection288PENANAa7TXwlIKCa292Please respect copyright.PENANAjAgS4KVf0h
"This is one silly method of interrogation if you ask me."copyright protection288PENANAuCyTGY46as292Please respect copyright.PENANAkuyzBw5vLA
"I can tell you're not telling me something. Zoey can't just leave like that without someone upsetting her."copyright protection288PENANA4YBuLLjIQ2292Please respect copyright.PENANAMgoIT43xVF
"And how do you know?"copyright protection288PENANAGKMwiLEbTz292Please respect copyright.PENANAadLcrmYrln
"I'm her best friend. 292Please respect copyright.PENANALL4788xexf
And plus, whenever someone gets her really upset, she runs off without 292Please respect copyright.PENANAayD4xqeX18
telling anyone. She always wants be alone to think."copyright protection288PENANACULZMUOpSl292Please respect copyright.PENANAqYrrNLQItv
"I hope she doesn't think of committing suicide."copyright protection288PENANAxbctFq3Kzh292Please respect copyright.PENANAWBNW2QPuKQ
"Zoey can't end her 292Please respect copyright.PENANAMZGN5JWCAD
life. Well, she hasn't tried to anyway. She's leaving the dream right 292Please respect copyright.PENANAzX4DZE7OxP
now and ending her life this early, isn't going to sound right. Unless 292Please respect copyright.PENANAMlgvGfmsRH
you did something."copyright protection288PENANAJnfLkMVP8k292Please respect copyright.PENANACSuCzlSU0D

"What could I possibly have done for Zoey to try and commit suicide?"copyright protection288PENANAbg24B0EGGu292Please respect copyright.PENANA7TsAefiHvo
"Don't talk about suicide like that." I hit him on the arm.copyright protection288PENANA61cC7bdjgS292Please respect copyright.PENANAJtyRIuAEbJ
"Ouch!" G-Dragon stopped and held his arm. "That hurts!"copyright protection288PENANAEKdg4ne0Cc292Please respect copyright.PENANA39Qr5S9zS5
"Well, you deserve it. Now tell me the truth." I put my hands on my hips.copyright protection288PENANA5TQ9cbLnN8292Please respect copyright.PENANA5brBYuBIar
"I'm telling you, Zoey and I didn't argue."copyright protection288PENANAnmhzRpBM67292Please respect copyright.PENANAnjfk7L5Qoy
G-Dragon looked me in the eye and he seemed really convincing.copyright protection288PENANAqNAQ4NJbcZ292Please respect copyright.PENANAhg8ELqWBu7
"Okay. I believe you," I said. "But you must have said something that upset her."copyright protection288PENANA9T1jlzWL0X292Please respect copyright.PENANA3IYqNZASRG
"I can't really remember what I had said to her. Maybe she just left on her own."copyright protection288PENANAfta9qhQhnR292Please respect copyright.PENANAbdu6BS018r
"And with her phone off, that's a bit strange, don't you think?"copyright protection288PENANAapaA7IOUHX292Please respect copyright.PENANAdmJS9Mzt5Y
"When we find her we will ask why she ran off."copyright protection288PENANANcJ43d4EuM292Please respect copyright.PENANAX8596eOhdy
"Ya. Sure."copyright protection288PENANAUZ6zySzpRF292Please respect copyright.PENANAd1kCG8Qvj8
"Now, will you please 292Please respect copyright.PENANAxM4iBaRKIb
stop walking backwards? I don't want you to trip and save you from 292Please respect copyright.PENANAv9sUdNTEUV
falling. That will spark rumours again like it did during the 292Please respect copyright.PENANA34XU9LKQeh
interview."copyright protection288PENANAboSO7LCFc8292Please respect copyright.PENANA1W98mG20X6
I didn't say anything, 292Please respect copyright.PENANAZWGJwYWozC
so I just nodded my head and faced forward. We went further into the 292Please respect copyright.PENANAaAFMzndX6p
park and as we looked around for Zoey, we sparked some attention from 292Please respect copyright.PENANAwNL97exKqw
our darling fans. We signed a few autographs and took a few pictures and292Please respect copyright.PENANAEs0hYBr1fk
went on with our search. We even asked some fans if they had seen Zoey,292Please respect copyright.PENANABVGQUcxrmd
but nothing.copyright protection288PENANAeouHok64le292Please respect copyright.PENANAk0LqEbwoyr
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.copyright protection288PENANAir5FsncTsy292Please respect copyright.PENANAAqTkE4zAus
"Are you tired already?" G-Dragon asked as he looked down on me.copyright protection288PENANAx6cPym8Eya292Please respect copyright.PENANAwPHlolC1ZE
"I'm not," I said as I 292Please respect copyright.PENANA2L8B3jYZcK
removed my slippers and felt comfortable with my bare feet on the grass.292Please respect copyright.PENANA2RFw53fviI
"I'm trying to figure out where Zoey could be."copyright protection288PENANACuY1NqAATo292Please respect copyright.PENANAKu16TGw6Bg
G-Dragon sat down beside292Please respect copyright.PENANACIba0lDvHu
me and the two of us were silent, looking at the pond. Laughter filled 292Please respect copyright.PENANAJn7UiJM3X9
my ears as I saw a group of kids playing from across the pond. Some 292Please respect copyright.PENANADCfl3GL69X
couples also sat on the grass close to the pond. It was such a beautiful292Please respect copyright.PENANA8jp9COaUat
day and sitting by the pond felt so relieving.copyright protection288PENANA81cq7kxg5v292Please respect copyright.PENANAMLh9E6ixsv
"Have you figured something yet?" G-Dragon asked.copyright protection288PENANAXjrF0y6LY5292Please respect copyright.PENANAiuXDfXu3wV
I frowned and looked at him. "No, why do you ask?"copyright protection288PENANAJhMwjDZJNl292Please respect copyright.PENANAHnwqLr4Tju
"You seem to be smiling to yourself," said G-Dragon as he looked at me.copyright protection288PENANAixekzd7w9q292Please respect copyright.PENANASl1BoNpVOl
"No, I'm actually enjoying what I'm experiencing right now."copyright protection288PENANAUKG0zeuFcz292Please respect copyright.PENANASj30PJIkjh
"You love nature, don't you?"copyright protection288PENANAcQNJQQli53292Please respect copyright.PENANAbO49G0oRrZ
I closed my eyes, still smiling. "Ya. I really do."copyright protection288PENANA8Hw8afOChf292Please respect copyright.PENANAZ5eL73DkiQ
At that moment, I was so292Please respect copyright.PENANAWmubbtmbnb
caught in the little world inside my head. For a moment, I forgot about292Please respect copyright.PENANAa3eSPjM6FF
everything. About looking for Zoey, being famous, and the whole world 292Please respect copyright.PENANAq7CZiVLUk5
with everyone and everything in it. It's like they never existed because292Please respect copyright.PENANAtvhgxj0bY2
even the noise around me seemed non existent.copyright protection288PENANArynuOTiogH292Please respect copyright.PENANA456MMc3XP8
Then I felt something 292Please respect copyright.PENANA0Rfwg82THx
brush against my hand like a soft feather. The touch brought me back to 292Please respect copyright.PENANAnmrmlRgRnw
reality and I quickly opened my eyes. I looked beside me and G-Dragon 292Please respect copyright.PENANAXuDplpquuV
was staring at me.copyright protection288PENANACoEb15Zk17292Please respect copyright.PENANAGuhsPcW4XJ
"What?" I asked.copyright protection288PENANAwwjIavpZ95292Please respect copyright.PENANAdI2rBNoUfF
"Has anyone ever told you how beautiful you are?"copyright protection288PENANAE1LcGDo0Au292Please respect copyright.PENANAwle3OxMaSX
I blushed all of the 292Please respect copyright.PENANAm5TM7c5pTH
sudden and I looked down. His hand covered mine and for a moment I 292Please respect copyright.PENANA3abjVPIkV8
wanted to pull away. But then again, I couldn't explain how I felt with 292Please respect copyright.PENANAezJb3whJkj
his hand on mine. I felt this weird comfort.copyright protection288PENANA7ZU5gQf7dG292Please respect copyright.PENANAzOulr2uBxX
I would have said yes to292Please respect copyright.PENANAEmERovwUYT
his question, but no words came out. This wasn't right. As much as I 292Please respect copyright.PENANAwo7qc3RStS
wanted him close to me, I knew I would end up getting hurt because we 292Please respect copyright.PENANAjE6F4WhzcF
were never meant to be.copyright protection288PENANAPHXBkONhv3292Please respect copyright.PENANAL6VCW8Iety
"Umm," I pulled my hand away and put it closer to my body. "Please don't say that GD."copyright protection288PENANALdpexEtUNa292Please respect copyright.PENANAGOpAr937cp
"Why?" He asked softly.copyright protection288PENANA6XGQ8F3meV292Please respect copyright.PENANAoafxgAbHOg
"Because this isn't right at all and you know it."copyright protection288PENANAbZkEZXVsIo292Please respect copyright.PENANAmFnik5HkLV
"What do you mean?"copyright protection288PENANAqYKLMMqVkX292Please respect copyright.PENANAuppiUGrwmu

"So?"copyright protection288PENANA739CCCXj0c292Please respect copyright.PENANAvSPkFrJM9D
"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."copyright protection288PENANAEB8OnbdcJd292Please respect copyright.PENANADJgWsdEFfr
"Looks like you figured out that I don't really like Zoey as such as I like you."copyright protection288PENANAqzra2bCzGj292Please respect copyright.PENANAgWWi4Kd6yB
I didn't say anything as I continued to figure out what to say next.copyright protection288PENANAh0KOV17Yma292Please respect copyright.PENANAG1KR6mBnhn

"Then why are you doing this?"copyright protection288PENANALcjDAsJ6ms292Please respect copyright.PENANAh4da3p55dA
G-Dragon looked at me like he never had before. He soon looked away and sighed.copyright protection288PENANAOfHHzgNYFB292Please respect copyright.PENANAWejsNH2wjC
"I'm doing this because of you, Sam. But even if I do so, I still can't get you out of my head."copyright protection288PENANA8llNzPXmrW292Please respect copyright.PENANAfKjhidgGAK
I also looked the other way, trying to act like those words hadn't affected me. But they did and they did so badly.copyright protection288PENANAPEXzY0yCet292Please respect copyright.PENANAWJmm6k3MKl
"You should find another292Please respect copyright.PENANAivnLUwAjDu
way to do so, GD." I turned to look back at him and he faced me. "But 292Please respect copyright.PENANArQGhb3UMaN
not with Zoey. I don't want her getting hurt because of the both of us. I292Please respect copyright.PENANAiQIbeyb1pm
will never forgive myself."copyright protection288PENANAG9LN5M8Bpc292Please respect copyright.PENANA8hDSpKWHli
G-Dragon nodded his head. "I'll do so."copyright protection288PENANA32SKCw8Omv292Please respect copyright.PENANAxINSTI1fYE
I wanted to smile but I 292Please respect copyright.PENANAH6mjJgYIWv
couldn't bring myself to do it. I hoped he kept his word and maybe with 292Please respect copyright.PENANAPorXLJrWmg
this little talk we've had, we would be friends again and stop acting 292Please respect copyright.PENANAW6sn5w7PEQ
like we had beef with each other.copyright protection288PENANA3g4p8R8itX292Please respect copyright.PENANARtHbEpk3jC

ask him why he had been giving me the attitude lately and if it had 292Please respect copyright.PENANAoRyAKvDN6u
anything to do with his jealousy, his phone rang. He quickly removed it 292Please respect copyright.PENANA5ygd3KvIy1
from his pocket and answered it.copyright protection288PENANAb4xFYAKz1d292Please respect copyright.PENANAreDvWf9gyE
"Hello? Christine?"copyright protection288PENANAvwhmNS4i5a292Please respect copyright.PENANA9EVO71jauu

G-Dragon got up from the292Please respect copyright.PENANAcT5sTlxjWu
ground and he held out his hand to me. I took it and he pulled me up 292Please respect copyright.PENANABal8B95yaA
from the ground. We left the park together, heading towards his car.copyright protection288PENANAVDJF5eH1d3292Please respect copyright.PENANAcbseRFufOZ
When we got in his car, 292Please respect copyright.PENANAjiUI5aqKNc
we drove through the city and we arrived at this small fancy café. We 292Please respect copyright.PENANAdWuW3qSt6m
parked across the street and before we could get out of the car, I 292Please respect copyright.PENANArWUXqNTbKD
looked across towards the café.copyright protection288PENANABNilK0CRVr292Please respect copyright.PENANAO8SwHUKXbU
"Can you see, Zoey?" G-Dragon asked.copyright protection288PENANA5zMrddOabZ292Please respect copyright.PENANANHA4aKv8op
Through the huge window,292Please respect copyright.PENANAwnanWmRipw
I could see what was going on inside. Looked like a lot of people 292Please respect copyright.PENANAR6MkbjvMJs
enjoyed coming over to the café. The place was parked for an ordinary 292Please respect copyright.PENANA8a6crPhaWe
day in the afternoon.copyright protection288PENANA2vTPorntll292Please respect copyright.PENANAsGYzoXrS1F
I searched for Zoey, but292Please respect copyright.PENANAAXDAspECe2
I couldn't see her. It was then that I saw Zoey at the far corner of 292Please respect copyright.PENANAjVImQiwaMv
the café. She was facing the window side and I saw her with someone. 292Please respect copyright.PENANAYq09bHTC3d
Sitting opposite her was a man in a fancy looking black suit. From afar,292Please respect copyright.PENANA16iyjGEhlN
I could tell his suit was expensive and I couldn't see his face.copyright protection288PENANAacFU5N7rnR292Please respect copyright.PENANAhc2zzVDR9o

"Who is it?"copyright protection288PENANAuhIo7umnR0292Please respect copyright.PENANAvV3cmV72M2
"I don't know. By the look of his suit, he seems like a business man or one rich tycoon."copyright protection288PENANAAVOuA2nEIm292Please respect copyright.PENANAk4Vhkcy8ZC
"Seriously?"copyright protection288PENANAYvwbVdaIc0292Please respect copyright.PENANAfm9Vp93nsy
"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?"copyright protection288PENANALadnWlVbSI292Please respect copyright.PENANA97DiSBObSH
G-Dragon looked towards the windshield, avoiding my gaze. "No, I'm not. I'm just wondering who it was, that's all."copyright protection288PENANAympLZqA6vw292Please respect copyright.PENANAkYFyiQvj97
I rolled my eyes and 292Please respect copyright.PENANAI508H6XvV2
said nothing more. I went back to looking at the café and focused on 292Please respect copyright.PENANAsZ6hGzWWvt
Zoey. I decided to read her body language and see if she was okay. She 292Please respect copyright.PENANAmnmeumSf54
looked like she was enjoying herself, chatting with this stranger.copyright protection288PENANALe7rKcD7FO292Please respect copyright.PENANAssQLcPvBZp
She was sipping her cup 292Please respect copyright.PENANA6ZVHshZvXj
of coffee and she went back to smiling at the stranger. Something was a 292Please respect copyright.PENANAwZ9YS7SXtP
bit off and I shifted on my seat to see if I was seeing right.copyright protection288PENANA44UeRdT7xZ292Please respect copyright.PENANAKvQltzYaGD
"Hey, is something wrong?" G-Dragon asked, noticing my tension.copyright protection288PENANAlGjgXdg8ss292Please respect copyright.PENANANXb4JnW7E7
"Ya."copyright protection288PENANAE2X7R8XBO1292Please respect copyright.PENANAbYPDTV6cQE
G-Dragon also turned on his seat and looked through the window.copyright protection288PENANA412qFvCnPW292Please respect copyright.PENANA2XK8Zd4gPb
Zoey's smile made me 292Please respect copyright.PENANAzDJkVJUtcT
wonder what was going on. She was smiling and chatting but she looked a 292Please respect copyright.PENANA3ggl8TfsS6
little nervous. Usually when she is with a guy, she was always the one 292Please respect copyright.PENANA8E9n1cBHR5
who was never scared of leading the conversation and became pretty292Please respect copyright.PENANAZIlpU5AnJJ
comfortable with the person. Unless the guy was creepy enough to be a serial killer.copyright protection288PENANADqp6KpbLbU292Please respect copyright.PENANAWRL62OqdcB
I felt a threat coming 292Please respect copyright.PENANAt6MPQbU1QR
up. Was this guy dangerous? Zoey had a nervous smile on her face and if I292Please respect copyright.PENANAnuYdDGEc85
was not mistaken, I think I noticed her fingers tap frantically on the 292Please respect copyright.PENANAQhBR24AOxB
table. She did that whenever she was nervous. I had to know what was 292Please respect copyright.PENANApwwt2xzslV
going on in there.copyright protection288PENANASjHol7dPsl292Please respect copyright.PENANAtAromhm37b
"Let's go," I said as I turned to look at G-Dragon. "I'm not liking this."copyright protection288PENANAcG3QbEkn8x292Please respect copyright.PENANAhCTlgdbsBZ
"Thank you," said G-Dragon, looking relieved. "I had a bad feeling about this guy."copyright protection288PENANAUJcjNwU2yn292Please respect copyright.PENANAX3ReLO2NeT
"Ya, right," I said as I grabbed the handle of the door, opened it and stepped out.copyright protection288PENANAJr69ar5RZD292Please respect copyright.PENANA5jucz0BgyJ
Just as G-Dragon came 292Please respect copyright.PENANAnbArhhUShu
out of the car, three cars appeared off the main road and came to park 292Please respect copyright.PENANAgdEHzIPx7w
in the parking space behind G-Dragon's car. The others had arrived.copyright protection288PENANAGn2ryrui0E292Please respect copyright.PENANAFIx7R3BBvT
"Christine told us to meet you here," said Taeyang as he and Mike came out of his car.copyright protection288PENANAycLnNoyzuK292Please respect copyright.PENANAvCbtgyeoHx
"Zoey's in the café," I said as I pointed across the road.copyright protection288PENANA0L63XEwxOz292Please respect copyright.PENANAl9UJKJfsaB
"Alright, let's go," said Seungri.copyright protection288PENANAY0oUZJHBlc292Please respect copyright.PENANAjqTCANRv9A
When I looked back at the café window, I noticed that Zoey was all alone on her table. That was odd. Where was he?copyright protection288PENANAPxB9uc0FCm292Please respect copyright.PENANA1GlF8I5BkY
"Oh, no, no, no," I said staring wide eyed inside the café.copyright protection288PENANAoSeJu56PLm292Please respect copyright.PENANA5ia32ZGWhp
"What is it, Sam?" Daesung asked.copyright protection288PENANAqPaRWVjhOu292Please respect copyright.PENANAtPnvewSCZW
I didn't answer him as I292Please respect copyright.PENANApIf6TBmfko
quickly dashed across the road without even checking for any cars. I 292Please respect copyright.PENANAe4hWIaEeqY
could hear the others behind call out to me to be careful. I luckily 292Please respect copyright.PENANA75WHUSiz6P
managed to reach the café without getting hit.copyright protection288PENANAJnyQuhB9hX292Please respect copyright.PENANAktsH18Mral
When I got to the café, a292Please respect copyright.PENANAPDiSO6QlGs
few people came out through the door. None of them matched the person 292Please respect copyright.PENANAM5Y421QEhW
who was in the café with Zoey. I quickly went in and I found Zoey still 292Please respect copyright.PENANAfe7cu7p0qF
sitting in the corner. I rushed over to her that my presence scared her.copyright protection288PENANA1apPBZePUq292Please respect copyright.PENANACtWQBtAaIX
"Sam! You scared me to death!" Zoey held her chest as she breathed in and out so heavily, trying to calm down.copyright protection288PENANAiPNCUmcA7d292Please respect copyright.PENANAlmx15KkVkb
"Where did you go?" I asked, taking the seat the stranger had been sitting on earlier.copyright protection288PENANAnsNYBY9vQS292Please respect copyright.PENANAp3gHAkGpWd
"Oh, I...um.." Zoey played with her fingers.copyright protection288PENANAZShbUAqCkH292Please respect copyright.PENANAIp1jeSvYWv
"Don't you dare try to 292Please respect copyright.PENANAYu7KUxUGlK
lie to me, Zoey," I threatened. "You went with GD for lunch and the two 292Please respect copyright.PENANANin4GLWZhS
of you went to the park. When GD went to get ice cream, you had 292Please respect copyright.PENANAT6HBIRaPRh
disappeared. And the next thing we know, you're here."copyright protection288PENANASOETLXHwml292Please respect copyright.PENANAVjUKyJJIoA

"Of course she had to. We were worried sick."copyright protection288PENANAmiYzwTtL8h292Please respect copyright.PENANABxsoFb8MsE
I heard the bell of the 292Please respect copyright.PENANAam1HZ44aj2
café ring and I knew the others had arrived. They soon came over by the 292Please respect copyright.PENANAXaGogSw54h
table. Only Taeyang, G-Dragon and Daniel were the ones who came in.copyright protection288PENANAwf9iw0cZF1292Please respect copyright.PENANAv3z7tMDkl9
"Zoey where have you been?" Daniel asked.copyright protection288PENANAbFG7cLb44V292Please respect copyright.PENANAftvAqwSkJk
"And who was that guy you were with, huh?" G-Dragon asked, looking down at Zoey with a frown on his face.copyright protection288PENANAVT0V6cYWS9292Please respect copyright.PENANAhoLPYtcHvQ
"Awww, are you jealous, my G-Dragon?" Zoey smiled at him.copyright protection288PENANAoJs8pxh76b292Please respect copyright.PENANABed1M9kkZc
"Stop taking all this 292Please respect copyright.PENANAtLO47zabsb
like a joke, Zoey. I saw the way you were behaving with him. You weren't292Please respect copyright.PENANAXjjTZtThw0
yourself when I saw you from across the street," I said.copyright protection288PENANAj5M3rLy91r292Please respect copyright.PENANAjihDuYBVCW
The smile on Zoey's face292Please respect copyright.PENANA6Dqq6k4V2v
disappeared in an instant. Good. Maybe now she would take us seriously.292Please respect copyright.PENANAzw4xz8Hv6G
Her safety was way more important than she could ever imagine. If 292Please respect copyright.PENANA9nycLdqION
anything had happened to her, a lot of us here would never forgive 292Please respect copyright.PENANAFOwbIeToLj
ourselves.copyright protection288PENANA66CiAFsBUN292Please respect copyright.PENANApk3lQQYFU4
"Can we please get out of here?" Taeyang suggested. "This isn't the place to discuss this."copyright protection288PENANAKn4tmpfRDd292Please respect copyright.PENANAdPNtSoMZ6M
"You're right," I said 292Please respect copyright.PENANAMHbXF5YTMt
as I looked around the café and many heads were turning our way. I hated292Please respect copyright.PENANAQz5vVn3mFU
attracting so much attention sometimes.copyright protection288PENANAzMGCcuBPIR292Please respect copyright.PENANArfiJp6SNJM
The others had started 292Please respect copyright.PENANAtT1U48wXuh
to leave and Zoey and I both stood up from the table. I noticed the 292Please respect copyright.PENANA1ZrppFuyDF
teacup the stranger had used and my mind still couldn't stop thinking 292Please respect copyright.PENANAnD93t0gOFu
about who he was.copyright protection288PENANAKhlN2mNx9z292Please respect copyright.PENANAmOQxn1vWqJ
After we left the café, 292Please respect copyright.PENANAREciuidMbe
we went back across the road where the vehicles were parked. Daesung, 292Please respect copyright.PENANAROJhXl7fdV
TOP, Mike and Daesung stood waiting for us.copyright protection288PENANAhFRn1OyUpl292Please respect copyright.PENANAkrqOykJesW
"Thank goodness, you're alright, Zoey," said Daesung.copyright protection288PENANAXAe1cG3Nx5292Please respect copyright.PENANAaxBwXvAjIc
"Ya, thank goodness you weren't lost," said Mike. "We wondered if we would find you in a ditch or something."copyright protection288PENANAA1lkzu3OfA292Please respect copyright.PENANAq1ciT0XikZ
Zoey frowned at Mike and all he could do was smile back at her mischievously.copyright protection288PENANA0TFjL4DZKY292Please respect copyright.PENANAEriasU8P3c
"Let's all go back to the hotel, shall we?" I suggested. "Zoey can tell us everything from there."copyright protection288PENANA96TdqJktVj292Please respect copyright.PENANAQJyQfkAxwL
Zoey and I went in 292Please respect copyright.PENANAcceMtszgzE

could vent out all my anger on Zoey.copyright protection288PENANAuVEHoJGN1H292Please respect copyright.PENANAUM8fxO5p80
We gathered ourselves in292Please respect copyright.PENANAfwqf4Fw40J
the lounge. The others sat on the couch and made themselves 292Please respect copyright.PENANAwzmOoc4Z7N
comfortable. Zoey and I were left standing and I looked at her, with my 292Please respect copyright.PENANA8NA4N5FGoF
hands on my hips.copyright protection288PENANA1BpBehh1Z2292Please respect copyright.PENANAqkU7zpgD3H
"Okay, let's start with why you disappeared?" I asked.copyright protection288PENANAPuI6clRrzJ292Please respect copyright.PENANAfuLQmSpNJP
"No, don't ask that," said G-Dragon. "Ask who she was with first."copyright protection288PENANA8AbGgUZLkx292Please respect copyright.PENANAGzrncD33qv
"I'm the one asking the questions." I turned to face G-Dragon. "I want to know what made her go like that."copyright protection288PENANAjVVAB1ZoVE292Please respect copyright.PENANA8XmoxNtXAN
"Fine, I tell you," said292Please respect copyright.PENANANL45z4jHtN
Zoey raising her hand to calm me down. "G-Dragon went over to get some 292Please respect copyright.PENANAMn9buZh47H
ice cream when a person came up to me. Said he was my biggest fan."copyright protection288PENANAzJxmRNvpRQ292Please respect copyright.PENANAhywSvIvRvb

"You know handsome men are my weakness," said Zoey. "Sorry G-Dragon."copyright protection288PENANAkAJuE4yKwM292Please respect copyright.PENANAv9LSb5bwqL
"No, I don't mind," said292Please respect copyright.PENANAXyUlVIpKRi
G-Dragon, shaking his head. I looked at him again and I was surprised 292Please respect copyright.PENANAAvWViyiek8
with the look on his face that he really didn't mind at all.copyright protection288PENANANiFB4qHDuZ292Please respect copyright.PENANAz60xUbyTq5
"So, he said he is your biggest fan and then what?" Taeyang asked.copyright protection288PENANAN1QWQJKg7C292Please respect copyright.PENANAsx6ShNe2za
"He offered that the two of us go out for some coffee," said Zoey. "That's how I left."copyright protection288PENANACzBORw99jp292Please respect copyright.PENANAgQBIOEJt6K
"Now that makes no sense or maybe you have no sense, Zoey," said Seungri.copyright protection288PENANAgxzG9wKfmq292Please respect copyright.PENANARoxxylv3SF
"Huh?" Zoey looked at Seungri, looking embarrassed.copyright protection288PENANAeclkV8pRrn292Please respect copyright.PENANAKCFQfMYYIO
"As much as that sounds 292Please respect copyright.PENANAPiIPWgMhqJ
totally embarrassing, Seungri is right," said Christine. "What you said 292Please respect copyright.PENANAdkyvFKuFJ1
doesn't make sense at all. How could you go out for coffee with someone 292Please respect copyright.PENANASv4HNICbWv

I started to tap my foot292Please respect copyright.PENANAgxlAmk2T39
and looked at Zoey, ready to breathe out fire if necessary. Christine 292Please respect copyright.PENANAdmjgwF3ZI1
was right and surprisingly, Seungri too. She wasn't telling us the 292Please respect copyright.PENANAMNGQypMqUT
truth.copyright protection288PENANARERff8UqcP292Please respect copyright.PENANAoHif3ngGpn
"Come on, Zoey, tell us 292Please respect copyright.PENANAH2Vy19ke9O
what really happened," I said. "You couldn't leave without GD. And you 292Please respect copyright.PENANAaR4D0048QE

that he was wearing an expensive black suit."copyright protection288PENANAinYycfP9Rq292Please respect copyright.PENANAHXSSucU1fJ

"Okay, okay, eish," said292Please respect copyright.PENANAr8HOQqVbYS
Zoey. "You scared the hell out of me. The truth is, I went with my fan 292Please respect copyright.PENANAvllvSsGaB3

"Someone who was ready to take advantage of Zoey," I answered.copyright protection288PENANAEN35bpc9W3292Please respect copyright.PENANANEiocFJ6t5
"If he did, you guys still wouldn't have found me," said Zoey.copyright protection288PENANAYmsxFYVn9T292Please respect copyright.PENANAGSg9wzfSuV

Daniel was right. Zoey 292Please respect copyright.PENANA35Lh4iWLdx
would have stood and walked away from the stranger but she didn't. I 292Please respect copyright.PENANArZe73trqij
wondered what question he might have asked her. That's if Zoey was 292Please respect copyright.PENANAtfegLwsrOm

There was a knock on the door and I called out to the person to come in. Christine entered.copyright protection288PENANAV0gcA6DxDP292Please respect copyright.PENANAORyCiigO9F
"Hey, can we talk?" Christine asked as she closed the door behind her.copyright protection288PENANAsbq9cexxKS292Please respect copyright.PENANARZM83aQpTV
"About what?" I turned to look at her.copyright protection288PENANAixnPgS0j5j292Please respect copyright.PENANAqN7UXtiubm
"Do you really believe what Zoey told us?"copyright protection288PENANAVKkQSefrqk292Please respect copyright.PENANAMyAOaddlId
"No, I don't." I sat on the bed.copyright protection288PENANAxblnY7OsPE292Please respect copyright.PENANAcB51ENA6Gt
"Looks like I'm not the only one," said Christine as she came to sit on Zoey's bed, facing me.copyright protection288PENANAjVujyau5tD292Please respect copyright.PENANAArGiFktQBL
"I wonder why she isn't telling us the truth."copyright protection288PENANAyMHM7TB9l6292Please respect copyright.PENANAPILcafHvB8
"Did you see the man's face?"copyright protection288PENANAyxw8uZMOTu292Please respect copyright.PENANAieof7oqPT9
"No. All I could say is that he wore a fancy and expensive suit."copyright protection288PENANAJDnMmgTKvT292Please respect copyright.PENANAbXjHphBDMJ
"I wonder who he is. Maybe he is some rich tycoon or something."copyright protection288PENANAsknHcpEW2Q292Please respect copyright.PENANAU3U75g9ePN
"That's what I thought too." I gave Christine a smile.copyright protection288PENANA0KbIipQHl5292Please respect copyright.PENANAD98DDLIZRH
"I bet he is good 292Please respect copyright.PENANAkj8VzvscEW
looking too. I still wonder why Zoey left like that without telling 292Please respect copyright.PENANAlODIqD3Xum
anyone. Do you think she really did all that just because the stranger 292Please respect copyright.PENANAIck0N2n8dM
told her to?"copyright protection288PENANAilxi9rzeLr292Please respect copyright.PENANAyMgUrviAsw
"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?"copyright protection288PENANAavHYdAjv2o292Please respect copyright.PENANAStrGIlsewt
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."copyright protection288PENANAaMbKM7UhJg292Please respect copyright.PENANAQRe6BvkEqI
"You said so yourself, Christine. There is no other explanation. He might have blackmailed her or something."copyright protection288PENANAtDhQcM1PAT292Please respect copyright.PENANAqiRgybqmuS
"Okay, but blackmailed her with what?"copyright protection288PENANAh5Xv8qOK1R292Please respect copyright.PENANABzWo6Mk2IP
"That we have to find out."copyright protection288PENANAP8jOeWhEDT292Please respect copyright.PENANAdFGCcX9ROe
I was just about to grab my phone and check out if I had any messages when Zoey came in the room.copyright protection288PENANACankzJVwdI292Please respect copyright.PENANA8QgoKusUvP
"Oh. Has GD left already?" Christine asked.copyright protection288PENANAWXWuXahuT6292Please respect copyright.PENANA2ZyMistjxt
"Ya. He left," Zoey replied. I heard a bit of sadness in her voice.copyright protection288PENANAxdXfWI4JOv292Please respect copyright.PENANAJMbhwFGK4f
"Are you okay? You don't look alright," I said.copyright protection288PENANAtbg05Szq25292Please respect copyright.PENANAzjWk4tm7DC
"I'm fine. G-Dragon and I talked about something serious."copyright protection288PENANAfUWUuuF6kR292Please respect copyright.PENANAxXp3nNlRE4
Oh my. Had he told her 292Please respect copyright.PENANAiGUu6TEC3d
about what we had discussed earlier at the park? As much as I knew it 292Please respect copyright.PENANAefcQzFiFC5
was going to hurt Zoey, it was for the best. Besides, she was going to 292Please respect copyright.PENANAnmRbzaWOEr
find someone way better than G-Dragon. Hopefully, even me.copyright protection288PENANAVCS4BbxY0t292Please respect copyright.PENANA5kVprpf71p
"What did you talk about?" I asked.copyright protection288PENANAnsYmpeHAwx292Please respect copyright.PENANAx2bQJjskFs
"He was just pissed that292Please respect copyright.PENANAxod7SphIAK
I left like that," Zoey answered. "He thought maybe he said something 292Please respect copyright.PENANAyMxXNEKdug
that might have upset me or something."copyright protection288PENANArLii22jSky292Please respect copyright.PENANA1bw15AKS8N
"Oh." That wasn't what I was expecting. "Well, I had asked him earlier if he had said something that might have upset you."copyright protection288PENANA5Bmtti6m50292Please respect copyright.PENANAt7FwezIKy7
"But he didn't."copyright protection288PENANAKhGMQfktOh292Please respect copyright.PENANA3yQaJp79Bi
"I see why Sam asked," 292Please respect copyright.PENANAEvbr7EjA7l
said Christine. "When someone gets you so upset, you run away. You've 292Please respect copyright.PENANAji69MYEmm1
done that many times before back home during our school days, you know?"copyright protection288PENANAPNlm1BerxU292Please respect copyright.PENANAvAU9LRPbMd
"Ya I know. Forget about it." Zoey waved her hand in annoyance. "What's happened has happened."copyright protection288PENANAnM1926Awdi292Please respect copyright.PENANA9Q2T87jo5Z
And I hope it will never292Please respect copyright.PENANAsmWGhGuzSo
happen again, but this guy in the suit still worried me. Until I know 292Please respect copyright.PENANA2n17vV2fRU
who he is, I wasn't going to pretend that the worst has passed when it 292Please respect copyright.PENANA1VvdKlw5hq
was yet to come at any moment.copyright protection288PENANAbvbMuK4aCG292Please respect copyright.PENANAwB6tPfpa4K
The next thing I knew, the door to our room flew open and Lee walked in.copyright protection288PENANAUwS2yRLfzj292Please respect copyright.PENANAgoTsTxrbnv
"Lee!" the three of us exclaimed in excitement.copyright protection288PENANA3ibxI7PvaD292Please respect copyright.PENANALYTc3pD7yb
"Wow! Did you guys miss me?" Lee asked with a smile on her face.copyright protection288PENANAPn1E0XPmJD292Please respect copyright.PENANAY5gqzZz9ky
"Ya, we did," said Zoey, putting her arm over Lee's shoulders.copyright protection288PENANAcKpjZLK1Y3292Please respect copyright.PENANAA6yghVkf4R
"Well, I missed you too," said Lee. "So, what happened today? I heard you never finished up on the song."copyright protection288PENANAsLkYfjdF2O292Please respect copyright.PENANAfMvNNw1rR7
Christine, Zoey and I 292Please respect copyright.PENANA62GvlI5UNf
shook our heads and talked randomly at the same time, saying nothing 292Please respect copyright.PENANADzrpSPVkhU
really happened. Lee knew something was up and even if it could clearly 292Please respect copyright.PENANAkpnVKo9f8x
show on her face, she didn't push us. She just smiled.copyright protection288PENANA6rzdRtCZPh292Please respect copyright.PENANAqAwj7kj91v
"Well, you'll tell me later," said Lee. "Collins and I were just....."copyright protection288PENANAjV6L7lhmBf292Please respect copyright.PENANA96nNTcMoZu
"Collins is here!" Zoey's face went white like a sheet.copyright protection288PENANAFid0DVAgzS292Please respect copyright.PENANAMo2X9RXpPt
"Yes, he is," said Lee 292Please respect copyright.PENANAdftJtAZhw6
with a wicked smile. "Now if you don't want to get into trouble, I 292Please respect copyright.PENANAh1sY6R0VIF
suggest you go on your bed and cry out that you still aren't feeling 292Please respect copyright.PENANA5TTiP5CF1H
well."copyright protection288PENANAqvchcYl7oN292Please respect copyright.PENANAHuSb9xWUE7
Christine and I almost burst out laughing. Zoey frowned.copyright protection288PENANA3A1oQ2DBJl292Please respect copyright.PENANAO3tMNHLcYZ
"Ha, ha, very funny," said Zoey as she went over to her bed and sat down.copyright protection288PENANAxz1mtDoc6h292Please respect copyright.PENANAaf7ojpY6h0
"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."copyright protection288PENANAoXRcsdmffZ292Please respect copyright.PENANA9f7ewTFEZz
"Us?" I asked.copyright protection288PENANAfs6643Iadu292Please respect copyright.PENANAQnUwy0x5mw
"Ya, the letter on the package was directed to The Toxins. It's with Collins in the lounge."copyright protection288PENANAETOY9ImTKQ292Please respect copyright.PENANAwa6jeq4Ypg
Christine and I rushed 292Please respect copyright.PENANAxqKnmYuamS
out of the room leaving Zoey with Lee. She had to pretend she was still 292Please respect copyright.PENANAP86mb9m3WL
not feeling well. We found Collins in the lounge with the package in his292Please respect copyright.PENANAyXt4GWaoUG
hand.copyright protection288PENANAtTy1PMutBv292Please respect copyright.PENANAB6CbNjrgI3
"Hey, Collins," I said. "What's that?"copyright protection288PENANAMAX5JLv8Fx292Please respect copyright.PENANAwYTbV21bSa
"This came in for you guys," said Collins. "And with a letter too."copyright protection288PENANAYaIWYKQY4u292Please respect copyright.PENANAbmyu7FTvNs
"Did I hear there is something for us?" Daniel asked as he and Mike came in the lounge.copyright protection288PENANAHicG47boAg292Please respect copyright.PENANAvMt4g89FdO
"Ya. Here you go." Collins gave me the package.copyright protection288PENANAgiQ16l9rDL292Please respect copyright.PENANAPodGwppEXZ
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.copyright protection288PENANAsAhcY7xVcp292Please respect copyright.PENANAvvyXdwf3sp
I took the letter and 292Please respect copyright.PENANA3QQz0w51H7
gave the package for Christine to hold and opened the envelope to remove292Please respect copyright.PENANAe7DnbGjOq7
a letter. I unfolded the letter and I read it out loud:copyright protection288PENANAXqMqXKiXjz292Please respect copyright.PENANABWPzIDzpUh
"Hope you're all okay. Just wanted to say I'm your biggest fan. With lots of love."copyright protection288PENANA8a2dqFfNcP292Please respect copyright.PENANAYyulISh7jo
"That's it?" Mike asked.copyright protection288PENANAapbx4QZYj8292Please respect copyright.PENANAGJmW5oIQ6F
"Ya, that's pretty much it," I said, looking behind the letter but there was nothing. "No name at all."copyright protection288PENANAYXpCoOjJff292Please respect copyright.PENANAH0HsKvcXaQ
"Did you see anyone who sent this?" Daniel asked Collins.copyright protection288PENANAB8TM3mX5qm292Please respect copyright.PENANA0agRirBp31
"All that the 292Please respect copyright.PENANABMR49fNSXr
receptionist told us was that some young man in a suit gave it to her 292Please respect copyright.PENANASmEQ9dZ1bY
and she should give either you guys or us when we came by the lobby."copyright protection288PENANAMNI2zOllcx292Please respect copyright.PENANAklTvdnW9Of
My eyes went wide and my292Please respect copyright.PENANA0aZxZQfNXC
heart pace quickened. Did Collins just say a young man in a suit? Maybe292Please respect copyright.PENANAuGnk993P39
I heard wrong and needed some clarification.copyright protection288PENANAkbDP0GThl9292Please respect copyright.PENANA8AaaWRylov
"A young man in a suit?" Mike asked.copyright protection288PENANAe152RFFZzY292Please respect copyright.PENANAi5G4nRfeBI
"Ya. Do you perhaps know him?" Collins asked.copyright protection288PENANAq5iZmKn71Z292Please respect copyright.PENANAQ9Yjw2iY4D
"Huh, no," said Christine, shaking her head.copyright protection288PENANAqFpfI8JKCb292Please respect copyright.PENANAQ4AGlkODXc
"Oh. For a moment there, you guys looked a little frightened," said Collins. "I thought you might know him."copyright protection288PENANA7kmY2wV3En292Please respect copyright.PENANAlegR55P9ay
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?copyright protection288PENANAAEQFeWVYww292Please respect copyright.PENANA4FqolppKrw
"Open it, Christine," said Daniel.copyright protection288PENANAz1GMKNEO0v292Please respect copyright.PENANAmplAqPSG3q
Christine threw Daniel 292Please respect copyright.PENANA2BKHKLetYZ
an angry glance. She obviously didn't want to open it and I knew what 292Please respect copyright.PENANAgabMMc9ABI
she was thinking. What if there was a bomb inside? Or maybe something to292Please respect copyright.PENANACrqXRZ2dCv
threaten or blackmail us? You could only think of the worst from a 292Please respect copyright.PENANAFVToCO7YNC
person you barely even knew.copyright protection288PENANAUCyZXViWLW292Please respect copyright.PENANA1f8zW1vvci
"Let me," I said as I took the package from Christine and I sat down on the couch with the package on my lap.copyright protection288PENANAjdvfDJp4RA292Please respect copyright.PENANAalC1628PXg
Collins was watching us for a second and then left the lounge. I sighed in relief and so did the others.copyright protection288PENANAm68eA5Tjmg292Please respect copyright.PENANAphZl018HQC
"I thought he would never leave," Mike whispered after we heard the door to Collins' room open and close.copyright protection288PENANAadxK5SHgd0292Please respect copyright.PENANAcYwUKIGaMI
"Can you check if he is really in his room?" I asked.copyright protection288PENANAmLYhOemOMd292Please respect copyright.PENANAVkVrfBtLbv
Mike went in the hall and came back seconds later. "He is in the room."copyright protection288PENANAA7TJzETweh292Please respect copyright.PENANAQYD6A8tak5
"I'm really nervous," said Christine. "What is in there?"copyright protection288PENANAKTM6Xa9e8X292Please respect copyright.PENANAAZYkhZf7gg
"I don't know," said Daniel. "I hope it is nothing that could kill us."copyright protection288PENANAgpnqkKdHDy292Please respect copyright.PENANAOvS10G451V
Mike hit Daniel at the back of his head and Daniel whined in pain.copyright protection288PENANAbvOvLoSej3292Please respect copyright.PENANAPgGJvOAT1H
"Don't say that," said Mike. "I don't want to die soon."copyright protection288PENANAL2lrOHW6W5292Please respect copyright.PENANA8LwD8TVeEx
"Guys, calm down," I said. "Let's just open this thing and see what's in it."copyright protection288PENANASKSgk0bRpv292Please respect copyright.PENANAnjbq4kUVis
"Okay, but take your 292Please respect copyright.PENANAjbnmpOXRjC
time," said Christine. "If there is a bomb in there, I want to say my 292Please respect copyright.PENANA2KlBKJNcqG
last prayers before I leave this earth."copyright protection288PENANA9gohHKAXIY292Please respect copyright.PENANAt3XB5PvUE0
I rolled my eyes but I 292Please respect copyright.PENANAVzpj64mGPB
was as scared as the rest of them. If we were to make out of this alive,292Please respect copyright.PENANAkOxLeYE1zY
I was going to kill Zoey myself for dragging us into this mess.copyright protection288PENANAG0HAqyznY6292Please respect copyright.PENANAi0LMitrHnJ
I started to unwrap the package. It was a white box.copyright protection288PENANANccWdwpCU1292Please respect copyright.PENANAnBXRWg88fk
The other three couldn't292Please respect copyright.PENANAdsglSkByIR
stop staring at the box and I needed to end this paranoia once and for 292Please respect copyright.PENANA3x8qdGduGH
all. I quickly removed the lid without thinking that there might be 292Please respect copyright.PENANA4H5IUvvihN
something dangerous in the box. The others even covered their faces. But292Please respect copyright.PENANAvTMaCt1VPf
nothing happened.copyright protection288PENANADtZSKgrSq0292Please respect copyright.PENANAj4Ih1vxMDx
"What the....?" I looked in the box and what I saw, shocked me completely.copyright protection288PENANAUMOuxnZ50i292Please respect copyright.PENANADUbtHqO2u8
"What is it?" Christine asked.copyright protection288PENANARVVaBpzrn5292Please respect copyright.PENANAx3zNlJLPJD
I looked up at the 292Please respect copyright.PENANAgsUcCP5Io0
others and they bended over to see what was in the box. Their jaws 292Please respect copyright.PENANACGksxY3liR
dropped almost at the same time and we looked at each other.copyright protection288PENANASsidLBRNg8292Please respect copyright.PENANAUhFYFVj9V7
"This is just ridiculous," I said as I shook my head.copyright protection288PENANA7nH8vBEggL292Please respect copyright.PENANAngfeS5mmd3
Christine, Mike and Daniel suddenly burst out laughing.copyright protection288PENANArINXLWsOUv292Please respect copyright.PENANAW82mveDpP4
Zoey and Lee came rushing into the lounge.copyright protection288PENANAHc1x9ZLUQn292Please respect copyright.PENANApHZANcedVe
"Hey? What's going on?" Zoey asked.copyright protection288PENANAGkQRFyDyT4292Please respect copyright.PENANAuPUq7xq9jN
No one answered. I was too speechless to say anything and the rest were still laughing.copyright protection288PENANANO2GH1XZy9292Please respect copyright.PENANA8hL2VotO2O
"What is in the package, Sam?" Lee asked.copyright protection288PENANA9YaOEFCmep292Please respect copyright.PENANAOol1XpYbxg
I soon removed a little cute brown teddy bear and held it up for Zoey and Lee to see.copyright protection288PENANAma9qPVEjid292Please respect copyright.PENANA3vg1zuSlk8
"Huh? You're laughing all because of a teddy bear?" Zoey looked at the others, wondering if they were okay in the head.copyright protection288PENANAejmfb5Aabl292Please respect copyright.PENANAhVBsNAdEbl
"Oh, my goodness, Zoey," said Christine trying to catch her breath with tears in her eyes. "Can't you see it?"copyright protection288PENANA8RTzcei5Bh292Please respect copyright.PENANAz4xFrUp3GP
"See what?" Zoey and Lee asked the same time.copyright protection288PENANABOyKYC8ZwQ292Please respect copyright.PENANAY1JeqW4u6x
"The...the...suit!" Mike laughed even more, pointing at the teddy bear.copyright protection288PENANAH5HcF1W1Cn292Please respect copyright.PENANAN6H8kL4I79
It was then that Zoey 292Please respect copyright.PENANA7rXwhf2wpz
looked at the bear in my hand and recognised that the tiny teddy bear 292Please respect copyright.PENANAvjNUryX4EY
wore a tiny black suit with a tiny black tie. Zoey looked like she was 292Please respect copyright.PENANA4ftjBC5BUA
about to get sick. Looked like she already figured out it was the292Please respect copyright.PENANALy1LOV3HJe
stranger who she was with today that sent it.copyright protection288PENANAKbYjsFLChp292Please respect copyright.PENANAbMtYWMmlns
"Guys, what am I missing here?" Lee asked.copyright protection288PENANAnfXsKj29bW292Please respect copyright.PENANAFGmeOkKPof
"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.copyright protection288PENANAtvuXlrnOyK292Please respect copyright.PENANAoEYSiFb93u
The other three continued to laugh when they saw Zoey take the bear. Lee looked as confused as ever.copyright protection288PENANAUMtLFNmt4Z292Please respect copyright.PENANAkWafY30HSH
"And here I thought it was a bomb," said Daniel, wiping away the tears in his eyes.copyright protection288PENANA6kOGQhnFSG292Please respect copyright.PENANAdlEhuDRpdO
"Ya. But it just turned out to be a bear in a suit," said Christine. "A harmless bear!"copyright protection288PENANA9XxPNozUfY292Please respect copyright.PENANA1b7RIPNF8n
This time, they laughed 292Please respect copyright.PENANAzglhG81wt7
even louder and I couldn't help but start laughing too. A minute ago, we292Please respect copyright.PENANABWYHQ5peUq
had feared for our lives and it was for no good reason. I saw the 292Please respect copyright.PENANAqyGfC8zv3s
reason to laugh along as well. Who knows what the future might hold? You292Please respect copyright.PENANAOnuewfaCvR
could die at any given day. We were just glad to be alive and laughing.copyright protection288PENANA1BALfUcTJD292Please respect copyright.PENANAEGjcAitGxq
"Stop it, guys," said Zoey with a frown. "This isn't funny." Lee just shook her head in disbelief.copyright protection288PENANAe6bOwelAvL292Please respect copyright.PENANANWAkaAlu1j
"You brought this on yourself, not us," said Mike.copyright protection288PENANA4v1GcrF0wR292Please respect copyright.PENANAYey5wahstm
"What's with all the laughing?" Collins asked as he came into the lounge.copyright protection288PENANA571AujnMCm292Please respect copyright.PENANAsRFeuIdUlP
Zoey held up the bear 292Please respect copyright.PENANAvRx7Zn0pMV
for Collins to see. It was such a funny site given that Zoey looked like292Please respect copyright.PENANAxfBT1FPozp
she was about to cry and she held the bear's little arm in between her 292Please respect copyright.PENANAg3FxpfNcf5
fingers that it was dangling in midair. That sent us into another wave 292Please respect copyright.PENANAZjhWtnet9J
of laughter. This time, Mike and Christine were on the floor and Daniel 292Please respect copyright.PENANAOYtpRz7iR6
fell right beside me on the couch. I laughed so hard my stomach ached.copyright protection288PENANAIxpJnJDSti292Please respect copyright.PENANAFlQHS3O6HG
And surprisingly, Collins laughed too.copyright protection288PENANABfOl8SADUY
