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.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAqroaMdV8GZ
I had never been this 1059Please respect copyright.PENANABDsdlTSKnw
late in my entire life. Not even when I had my own personal 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAf5TYH75YGX
appointments. The others would be wondering why I was so late. And 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAzl0jNz0wzD
trying to explain the reason why, would have them blown away.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAxv4P9TUCJo
"Sam, are you still there?" Zoey called out to me from our room.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAguXR6ufB56
I didn't want to answer. I was quite irritated. But if I didn't, she would start to freak out.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA5vjWkWchpN
"Sam!"1059Please respect copyright.PENANA6zJ6Y6UxVX
I rolled my eyes. "I'm still here, Zoey," I answered.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAMQodXMI9eK
Zoey came out of the 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAMHqjRy2X7R
room and came to the lounge where I was seated waiting for her. I was on1059Please respect copyright.PENANAj0aFWN2AOx
the couch and I looked at her, then back at my watch.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA2cu305eeB0
"Did you find what you're looking for?" I asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAlKhny1eJkK
"No, I haven't," said Zoey.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAV0wBvrceyH
"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."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAmWs8SFCfGX
"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.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA1hotn6lg9Y
"Zoey, it's just a stud and you have plenty of those like it in your jewellery box."1059Please respect copyright.PENANA7XLW8uSPmY
"But those are my favourite studs," said Zoey. "You know they are diamond, right?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANAAAIEtchhWQ
"I know because I bought you those studs for your birthday a year ago."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAS5enRWVhUP
"Oh. Ya, I know." Zoey had a look on her face that told me she forgot about that.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAS7bGCLwpxI
I ignored her and said, 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAa9OxMCwlsr
"just get another pair of studs or don't put on any at all. For my sake.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAc2OmidLFPI
And Collins' too. We were supposed to be at the studio at 10."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAQJVzDRFMB8
"What time is it?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANAwTLPLvEXCw
"10:35."1059Please respect copyright.PENANA7Lkobbz7EZ
"Wow, time really passes by."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAxv8koXoLG8
"When it comes to you, it does. Come on, let's go."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAsT9lEdAWJB
"Let me go get my phone."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAl7DOKVu7OK
Zoey rushed back to the 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAB3LsTGw1zh
room and I hoped she wasn't going to get back to looking for her missing1059Please respect copyright.PENANAqLQv4LsTqa
stud. She sometimes did the opposite of what she had to do. But anyway,1059Please respect copyright.PENANAfAwih60oIS
that was Zoey.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAjj63H4F9fg
I soon received a 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAUGNj3J9GlB
message from Collins threatening me to get to the studio as soon as 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAdGrVLEzje3
possible. In no less than five minutes. I moaned. He knew we couldn't 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAT3Gt1MA5kp
get there in five minutes. That's if we were superheros.1059Please respect copyright.PENANASNimm9ganh
"Zoey, come on, we better go!"1059Please respect copyright.PENANAPVEvveEp2H
"I'm coming."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAy3r9AIoHQz
I started heading 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA7KLnax7ze5
towards the elevator and my phone beeped again. Another message. 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAMC7OF33FyE
Hopefully it wasn't Collins again telling us he would hang us to death 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAjKWKjAMR0F
if we didn't make it in time. But I was surprised to see an unknown 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAODlOiC0KfA
number. A number coming from another country.1059Please respect copyright.PENANApOitgPC231
"Oh, who is this?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANA8kUjLbZzbf
Before I could open the message icon, Zoey came rushing from behind and bumped into my back. That almost made me drop my phone.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAlLUFEgurc5
"My goodness, Zoey!" I said as I looked at her. "You should look where you're going. I almost dropped my phone."1059Please respect copyright.PENANANItC5tL7j5
"Sorry," said Zoey as she also looked at me.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAidGzMxEjAg
"Come on, we're already late."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAOgTLgN82LW
We went into the 1059Please respect copyright.PENANATzgj0Sx1O8
elevator and I put my phone away in my jeans jacket pocket. A black 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAC7MxeuSc4N
Chevrolet SUV was waiting for us outside. The others had already left 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAVVayF1tAW6
for the studio and I had stayed behind because of Zoey's missing stud.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAdlJyUmrmK8
When we got to YG, 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAAF1wENUvj8
Collins stood there by the entrance, obviously waiting for us. He looked1059Please respect copyright.PENANAwwtDoQAwDN
like an angry father ready to scold at his kids for coming home late.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAGR31hPNGOf
"Don't tell me all this is your doing, Zoey," said Collins as we approached him.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAotrSbdC8ZR
"No, no, it's not," said Zoey as she shook her head.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA2F3GnBk78q
"Says the person who isn't wearing her studs today."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAN4esxLC9sP
Zoey held her earlobes 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAHLYWqMuiKc
and looked at me with a surprised look on her face. I shrugged. I had to1059Please respect copyright.PENANAjtyqSeWiox
tell Collins why we delayed over the phone. At least he believed me, 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAK4x0KKOgVg
knowing that he already knew what was Zoey was like.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAfZAO4sNZIQ
"Come on, the others are waiting and they didn't want to start without you," said Collins.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAiFXNoF1CvH
"They had to wait," said Zoey, flipping her hair. "I'm singing the first verse alongside G-Dragon."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAfS3m4mzInm
"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.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAfdWe47YmJB
"I'll try." I smiled. Zoey stuck out her tongue at Collins.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAhz9zQBWYF6
We got to the studio and we found everyone else waiting for us, lazing around on the couch.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAOKTc5LqcTa
"Hey, you're finally here," said Seungri.1059Please respect copyright.PENANARLBYyPppIY
"Sorry, we had an issue back at the hotel," said Zoey.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAi3K0PhX1Jj
"Ya. A 'serious' one." I said as I rolled my eyes.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA1VO0hSW3PA
"I can't wait to get started," said Daniel excitedly as he stood up from the couch.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAC9e2ERdExX
"Then let's do so," said1059Please respect copyright.PENANAkVdEkwxjoP
Collins as he joined the music producer by the console. "Zoey, Taeyang,1059Please respect copyright.PENANANRvG7Moih2
Christine, Sam and G-Dragon, we will start with you guys."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAELElCaNjLh
I had completely forgot 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAnTccnMrLuh
that G-Dragon was even in the room. I hadn't noticed him at all when he 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAEi2mNRKaEH
stood up from the couch and came towards Zoey and I.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAe1yjISlB0q
"Hi, Zoey," G-Dragon greeted Zoey.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAEDl00r1ITg
"Hi," said Zoey with a wide smile on her face.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAzPwVuXCTqr
"Ahem," Christine came from behind as she cleared her throat. "Let's go. You two can talk later."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAHsBP2CfxTZ
I rolled my eyes and together with Taeyang and Christine, we went into the live room together, followed by the two love birds.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAohEngO44nE
In the live room, there 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAUWZh609qSr
stood five microphones and with each mic had a pair of headphones around1059Please respect copyright.PENANA0qMJCHfFt0
it. We each stood in front of a microphone and put on the headphones.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAL2C7MImJVe
Ahead of us was a window where we could see the others from the other side.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAk1QsMUcJ5m
"Are you guys ready?" Collins asked as his voice was heard through the speaker in the live room.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAcNXtTlVEkt
I looked at the others 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAtLLUNzNuDM
to see if they were settled and gave Collins a thumbs up and the music 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA9kkvlhv8MA
producer started to play the tune for the song.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAQjVMfG7Qzb
G-Dragon started to sing1059Please respect copyright.PENANADQZ9a5Ic8K
and then afterwards, Zoey followed. Their voices blended so well with 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAXnulIck9c1
the music, they made a perfect harmony. Looked like I did a good thing 1059Please respect copyright.PENANApmOcUcMlBK
to let them sing the first verse together.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAlWP5MMtR76
Collins, the music 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA9pe9wnRfZ0
producer and the others outside the live room had smiles on their faces.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAJygMyE10FJ
They were loving it alright. Collins gave them a thumbs up.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAdXBU8qhlrG
Christine then sang the 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAoeFShX6cL7
bridge and as she came came closer to the chorus, I joined in. Then 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAt2RsUg8Q2U
Taeyang and I sang the chorus together.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAG349YlpLT9
When we were done, the music producer stopped playing the track.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAq1i1FV29tv
"That was awesome, guys," said Collins as his voice came out through the speaker. "The song is so incredible."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAu5kDyFlfJd
"Ya, thank Sam," said Taeyang. "She is the one who came out with all of this."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAy0OPRWbOCw
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."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAkoH03Yxzaa
"Okay, Sam and Taeyang, I1059Please respect copyright.PENANAkFz26r1pYH
want you two to go through the chorus again, this time with a little 1059Please respect copyright.PENANABtO6zXbKKf
more high tempo and see how it sounds," said the music producer.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAqLi7tdoG3I
"Okay," Taeyang and I said at the same time.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAmChqlpT9Gg
"Shall GD and I leave then?" Zoey asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAUX9Eq9ojjl
"You may," said Collins,1059Please respect copyright.PENANAV5SIdfkWoW
looking a little irritated on his face. "But don't leave the studio. 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA4h5m5TSYIO
You have to work on the backup vocals."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAMttyldaoKB
"Alright, we will be here," said Zoey, with a grin on her face.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA3Zl4gAsfkL
If I hadn't known 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAmU0x5yebT1
better, something told me Zoey and G-Dragon were up to something. They 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAujh5u1a675
looked like little mischievous children as they smiled at each other and1059Please respect copyright.PENANAjo1m6Xgxp3
they walked out of the live room. I couldn't help but feel a little 1059Please respect copyright.PENANABsN9uTOLec
hollow inside.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA8IhdAecY78
"So, we will start from Christine's part," said the music producer.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAgfNd4YX19B
We continued recording 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAahgjSg8YTO
the song and later on, TOP, Mike, Daesung, Seungri and Daniel also came 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAn1eDrjXROF
into the live room. It took us a while to record the whole song, trying 1059Please respect copyright.PENANADcvmKQ8Sbi
to make our vocals blend in with the song but we were done.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAZp8wZgV7m0
"Great job guys," said Collins. "Let's break up for lunch and then we can come back and work on the backup vocals."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAWnu0nZKmtS
"Alright," said Mike as he took out his headphones. "I'm pretty hungry now."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAQNXsajIlId
"The song is amazing," said Christine. "And it's catchy that you can sing it the whole day."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAxvUrstjMbO
"Ya," said TOP. "Why don't we all go somewhere special for lunch?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANAQxv5LsCMV2
"Like where?" I asked as I put the headphones on the mic.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAZGhw6yQ2ea
"Some restaurant I think we will like," said TOP as he looked at me with a killer smile.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA80fox7UpFn
"That sounds great." I turned to the window to look at Collins who obviously heard everything. "Can we go, Collins?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANAuU7rvHgcO6
"Ya, you can go," said Collins waving his hand irritatingly in the air.1059Please respect copyright.PENANApoB08kJDiE
"Yes!" Daniel punched the air with his fist.1059Please respect copyright.PENANARtEFcwGu4o
"But be back within an hour."1059Please respect copyright.PENANA3QBHqRTIS6
I raised an eyebrow at Collins who then rolled his eyes at me and groaned.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAtuDM1QIDOq
"Fine, an hour and a half."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAvSioIkJ8qW
I did a little victory dance in my heart and I smiled in triumph. Collins and the music producer soon left the studio room.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAwe2WJBvBhR
"How did you do that?" Daesung asked as we all walked out of the live room.1059Please respect copyright.PENANABLQ52VUaDE
"Do what?" I asked with a smile on my face as Daesung was right behind me.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAnIRcON8I5s
"How did you convince Collins to give us an hour and thirty minutes?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANAS8KEwXXyeK
"That, my friend," said 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAK9OYQD7dJi
Mike behind me, "is the way my sister does her thing. Just by a look in 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAW3FdwMa8uK
her eyes and you will have to do whatever she wants."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAVwuqzESA1j
"That's not true," I said as I turned around to look at Mike who had his hand on Daesung's shoulder.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAesBcFTIMF8
"Really? I beg to differ," said TOP as he winked at me.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA1FmTTMw5Bh
"No one does what I want them to do just by looking at them in the eye," I said, looking away from TOP, blushing.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAhby1OjytGn
"Well, it does work, most of the time," said Christine nodding her head.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAsRkMqgBpSj
"Oh, ya? Like when?" I folded my arms.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAOlCfZobD33
"Whenever you want us to1059Please respect copyright.PENANAQmLgSeTdYq
tell you the truth about something and we refuse, you always give us 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAaesJdkzrlK
this eye that makes us give in," said Daniel.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAaHbXOoqkqy
"For real?" I raised an eyebrow.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAM1eXvO4nw4
"Ya, your eyes burn and we just can't take it," said Christine.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAnccPKg82rW
"Huh," I thought of all 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAxmlJ9SNNmZ
the times when either of my brothers or the girls ever did whatever I 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAdrpkwYlsrX
wanted them to do just by me giving them the eye.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAkXtqfAMjAp
"But that doesn't explain with Collins though," said Taeyang.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAttouLtgr11
"Thank you, Tae," I said feeling relieved.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA7F8t1SHu30
"Come on, Sam," said 1059Please respect copyright.PENANACWompYJu8V
Daniel. "You might not know it, but Collins listens to you because you 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAUkyff9UWvZ
also give him the eye. And also probably because you're his favourite."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAYknfqdjAYh
"That makes no sense." I shook my head.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAl5WSUnPaf0
"I believe him," said Seungri. "Looks like you have a way of getting to Collins to make him agree with you."1059Please respect copyright.PENANApnE1S0esMT
"But he doesn't agree to me all the time," I slowly shook my head.1059Please respect copyright.PENANALVwtNtK4M7
"On some ocassions like this one, he does," said Christine with a smile.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAEdtQqwBgln
"Can we please just go for lunch?" I asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAu3Be2Mcl2y
Seungri came over to open the door for me, but just as I was about to step out of the room, I stopped.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAH7gSGJzkWb
"Guys?" I turned around to look at the others. "Where are Zoey and GD?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANAbBjIwg7sct
We all turned towards the couch and noticed that there was no one there. I went back in the room and looked around.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA2DRfRUeXyg
"They aren't here," I said.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA87LMCO46fT
"These guys don't stop surprising us with their disappearing acts," said Daesung.1059Please respect copyright.PENANARGLSqTUKyl
"I'm surprised Collins didn't notice," said Seungri.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAXRSJUBNQBG
"Hopefully, they will be back before we start on the backup vocals," I said.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAY4dqULzncI
"Then let's go then," said TOP. "Wherever those two are, they are fine."1059Please respect copyright.PENANADZQ3OblENC
I nodded my head and we 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAZa69CvNbkx
all left the room. As we headed down to the ground floor, I reminded 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAaJGvKo5qIT
myself to leave a text message for Zoey.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAHRLT9ixKdZ
We were in the lobby and1059Please respect copyright.PENANAuYtbQIUq5s
I stopped to remove my phone. I went over to messages and realised that1059Please respect copyright.PENANAVry7hrHzxQ
I had one unread message. It was the message I had received this 1059Please respect copyright.PENANANUt8dDWauc
morning.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAUVQIkxHQNu
I first sent Zoey a text1059Please respect copyright.PENANAVQBlrGsAfm
message then I decided to read the unknown message from this unknown 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAowe64CPBqd
person. Then TOP appeared right in front of me.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAGWnAO5r5Z9
"Hey, what are you looking at?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANAF6GOV129lk
I was startled by his sudden appearance that my thumb pressed the exit button and I had gone out of my messages.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAMpLMhj31EH
"I was just sending Zoey a message," I said.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAPRBkRvdqRL
"Okay, shall we go?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANAW3p0ByL3CK
"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.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAMn9STKarRR
"Oh, you guys look like you're going out," said Christine with a smile.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAOBxZPDKN7Z
"We're all going out for lunch aren't we?" I asked with a smirk.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAIxmJn644uK
"Ya, we are," said Daesung, looking the other way and scratching the back of his head.1059Please respect copyright.PENANATUM4mZqDbw
"We better go or else our one and half hours will elapse in no time," said Daniel.1059Please respect copyright.PENANABnNe9klCqx
Instead of using any one1059Please respect copyright.PENANALdpYTvZwqk
of the BigBang members personal cars, we used the two black SUVs. We 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA1eyB8VL7hP
were driven to a fancy restaurant and as usual, we grabbed a lot of 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAOGRg4eaxkb
attention, especially from the customers.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAuBAVI8VN6Z
I had to admit, the 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAsC7Lx1Eet8
restaurant was nice and classy, suitable for the famous and the rich. As1059Please respect copyright.PENANAEFZakJ2iky
I walked into the restaurant with the others, a fancy glass chandelier 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAYxL6XWnMQR
caught my eye. The polished wooden floor shone almost like glass under 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAS6MTPG5TDI
the lights the chandelier reflected all over the room.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAHWy7v1e4v7
A smartly dressed 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAvCs73lYDxG
waiter, who by the way, was super cute, came over. He gave us a friendly1059Please respect copyright.PENANAlbiEEBdlP9
smile and I felt Christine nudge me by the shoulder and when I turned 1059Please respect copyright.PENANADwZSYBLaY9
to her, she was smiling. Looked like she also noticed the waiter's good 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAYVzfo5hZUC
looks too. Damn! Why were Korean men so good looking?1059Please respect copyright.PENANAr6nvN7EIhn
We were escorted to a 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAyBcj1nLZJG
round table big enough to cater a whole lot of people. Even ten. But 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAadsCWy8bEh
sadly, Zoey and G-Dragon weren't here.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA0FEUCSgFQe
TOP pulled a chair for 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAbWazx26LPK
me and I sat down, thanking him as he took his seat beside me. Seungri 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAIo0ASBjgIE
pulled a chair for Christine who sat on my other side and Seungri sat 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAaiqzcLaV75
beside her.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAWNovTTGh6k
"This place is so lovely," I said as I looked around.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAn1BNOJaJeG
"Tell me about it," said Christine.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA3JB51qQqKc
"I knew you would like it," said TOP.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAyz1I6yFJ2D
"Ya, it's exquisite, but I'm only here for the food," said Mike who sat opposite me.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAViXTxWVq2k
"So, let's order," said Daesung.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAwMhj1aRG9h
I took the fancy looking menu with the colour of velvet and the letters written in gold. Classy.1059Please respect copyright.PENANARcFQgqz9fz
After our delicious meals had been served, we ate. I enjoyed it as I savoured every little food in my mouth.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA9LkTsaQ15l
As we were having our 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAyM946Mx6r8
dessert, we were chatting and there was a lot of laughter all around our1059Please respect copyright.PENANAw3ZQql1hR1
table. It was fun to be like this, all together as good friends and 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAgoe43p4LJT
laughing about. I kind of wished Zoey and GD were here. I bet they were 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAFkXa7URHNY
having fun wherever they were.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAdu9K0VV1YV
While I was having my 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAjxnppscPDo
strawberry cake, I felt the vibration of my phone in my pocket. Must be a1059Please respect copyright.PENANA4hDHXigdJ6
message. I took out my phone and I was shocked to see that the same 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA4qSHkcGYsQ
unknown number had sent me a message again.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAyV5oAXEb8s
I tapped on the message 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAnZ87HqFdK8
icon and the first message the unknown number had sent to me was a 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAQR6xYzQRQU
photo. I had to download it first before I could even see it. And then 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAiBE24R9J5W
the next message was more surprising.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA0s2CKzo5Qt
"Aren't you going to do anything about this?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANAvHqndibVcO
Anything about what was 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAiy9YUmNiI5
the question. Had this had to do with the photo? Must be or else the 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAwroHkcK3pr
unknown person wouldn't have texted me this message.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAKzdeQIChcL
I decided to turn my data on and download the photo. Just as I was about to, my phone went off.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAWliMU0Afco
"Dang it!" I muttered to myself.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAkM8AtnMl3B
"Hey, what's wrong?" TOP asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAWXE384i0u0
"Nothing, my phone went dead. I hadn't charged it last night."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAhY3hWDDXNK
"Was there something important you wanted to do?" Taeyang asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAPeqfBxithO
"Not really, it's not important." I shook my head but my thoughts still lingered on the unknown photo.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA1yDsiD1QJA
"Did Zoey text you back?" Christine asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA6wHiswOHTP
"No, why?" I asked as I picked up a piece of strawberry cake with my fork.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAx3dU9KkiwU
"Well, your phone vibrated so I thought you had received a message from her."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAIj937YcDsS
"It was nothing. Wherever Zoey is, she is having a lot of fun."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAvS7e7F6xBW
"Hey, what's up with GD and Zoey anyway?" Taeyang asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANALcFrlEVKnb
"Isn't it freaking obvious?" said Daesung. "Those two seem like a couple now."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAzwyUwsMf3b
I almost choked on my cake but instead, I cleared my throat. Christine rolled her eyes.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAq6RFyiz8V8
"Well, that wasn't going to go on unnoticed forever," she said.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA0AhD8kH3oJ
"Wait, for real?" Taeyang asked, with a look of surprise.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAs5FnFiu888
"And you already knew, didn't you?" Mike asked looking at Christine.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAynnB9wRw11
"Oh, please," said Christine rolling her eyes. "Don't tell me you haven't noticed how close those two are nowadays."1059Please respect copyright.PENANATnst743X9w
"They have always been close," said Seungri. "But this time, they are just way too close."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAnPkK9pAp9v
"For them to disappear like that together, it counts for something, right?" TOP suggested.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAkqm2bPvKPL
"Can we please stop 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAJYvWmybvZu
talking about it?" I asked. "There are people around and if they hear 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAx97Pw6OIYj
all this, some of us would be hanged when this spreads like wild fire."1059Please respect copyright.PENANA3FLbNuOAVf
"Why do you say that?" Daesung asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA5p9WC9aZuR
"Oh, oooh, oh," said Daniel waving his hand from across the table. "May I say it?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANARU67qbBGZP
"No, let me," said 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAjMEh6yfr3f
Christine, as she put her hand on mine and looking at me convincingly to1059Please respect copyright.PENANA88c1XJ9EyZ
allow her to say what she wanted to say.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAPHKqwGiwih
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.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA3y1pl2kdCF
"Because, Collins gave 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAOswMIQkb3Y
these girls a golden rule when we were coming here," said Daniel. "And 1059Please respect copyright.PENANABavhKfIuYG
that is, none of them should date any one of you BigBang members. 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAQ80vcZMwzi
Never."1059Please respect copyright.PENANATnj5KxQANO
There was silence on the1059Please respect copyright.PENANAbKVzbnsQVB
table and I couldn't help but feel a little downcast. Christine 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAL5ilwNTseV
continued to eat her dessert like nothing serious had been said. I 1059Please respect copyright.PENANACilNaoBUtV
looked over at my brothers who seem to be enjoying our humiliation.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAjlosG5NRlU
"Is that true?" Seungri asked, looking over at me.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAyYcUxEv1J6
"Ya, it's true," I said as I slowly chewed the cake in my mouth.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAmAE7hswZfB
"Oh." Daesung looked a little disappointed as he stared down at his plate.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAXuy8eWCLB2
"Who cares? It's not like it's that serious," said TOP as he shrugged.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAzaDXDrlXsZ
"It's serious to 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAp4PRgqSe3s
Collins," I said as I turned to look at TOP. "We're only here to 1059Please respect copyright.PENANACD9lVOcG4W
collaborate with you and that's all. Not date, get married and have 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAL5dksDHFFY
babies."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAVoxwziNUYk
That was odd coming out 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAed5AyQE96X
of my own mouth and the others knew it too. Everyone's eyes were on me, 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAyBF0HelWH7
with looks on their faces that I couldn't describe. This was 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAxX6MmZL9of
embarrassing. My hands were now curled into fists as they rested on my 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAucl3iUyZBP
laps.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA38jHUTe2VF
"Sorry, that came out wrong," I said.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA7Fo2oVsHDs
"Well, you did catch us by surprise by saying that," said Taeyang.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAVMdCgsLbXl
I really did. Something 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAHOrmO2kWQu
had gone totally wrong with me and I could feel it. My thoughts were 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA4w0JRxymr6
spinning in my head and I felt like I had no control over how I felt.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAwlMycatOlH
"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.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA71wND8Ripw
I quickly closed the 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA4wMzlt9Lv9
door immediately I stepped in the ladies' room, leaning my back against 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA9Uxz8V7tiB
the door. My hands flew to my hair and I took a deep breath. I walked 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAYe4Mls6IS6
over to the sink and stared at myself in the mirror.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAN6fFzm5OQG
"What's wrong with you today?" I asked my reflection.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAaHZzxtv5C7
I shook my head and I 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA7H1ihaNjVq
knew I wasn't alright. Something was definitely wrong. Was it the fact 1059Please respect copyright.PENANANTh1vBKo9E
that Zoey and G-Dragon were together? As far as I know, I wasn't really 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA08KQft09ZD
supposed to care. But I did.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAJFob4mX6AR
I looked at myself and I1059Please respect copyright.PENANAoD8OJmWKp3
could see the sadness in my eyes. Were they for G-Dragon? I shook my 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAKSpqduG5UY
head at the thought. No. They weren't. He and I were still at war with 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAej6NlLBG2x
each other and that made no sense. I had to stop thinking about these 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAQfa7jFYHq5
things and focus on what's really important.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA5n52MEFSjj
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.1059Please respect copyright.PENANALcAHiwtPQh
"Are you okay, Sam?" Mike asked as I sat back down.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAooNeYFAtBl
"Ya, I am. I just feel horrible that I said that."1059Please respect copyright.PENANA8qblcIPVyW
"We think we know why you did," said Christine.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAJhhc1B0cAp
I gulped. What had these1059Please respect copyright.PENANAlmDQvo6PI5
guys thought of now? If it was what I thought it was, I would rather 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAIbhYLKkp8j
not hear it. There was a moment of silence at the table.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA5RbRBZbHuv
"Zoey has you so worked up that you're irritated," said TOP.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA27ZyhRExwL
That was not what I was expecting. I was wide eyed and in my heart, feeling a little relieved.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAWERJr3xYGq
"Ya, I remember when we were coming here in the plane and Collins told you to watch over Christine and Zoey," said Mike.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAdTiVBxPDUl
"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.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAQ8ksBMqetX
While Christine was one 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAkClQwH7bfz
who at least had her hormones in check, Zoey and I were pretty much 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAGywBxNjNqw
guilty. I couldn't tell who was worse between either of us. I bet I was 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAuntP94USPj
worse.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAc4xIdOj4gR
"Well, I guess I'm also guilty myself like Zoey," I said, admitting to everyone.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAkcfxVCXlrz
"If you mean TOP flirting around with you, then trust me, you're not," said Daniel.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA4KBeLuk3qc
"Hey!" TOP looked a little annoyed but rather amused. He ended up laughing.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAXFQdFXfiaS
"And me calling you my panda," said Seungri, with a smirk.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAixFZCeiQDK
"You see, Sam, people just like you," said Mike. "And these guys shouldn't dare make a move of kissing you."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAHhGXuyBq0w
I blushed. "Mike!"1059Please respect copyright.PENANASD732BN7yP
"Don't worry, he is just being protective over his sister," said Daesung, laughing.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAq5O13uGSiz
"I've tried kissing 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA9ogQJSfpn4
her," TOP challenged as he looked over at my brothers. He raised an 1059Please respect copyright.PENANADd9QDNZEXL
eyebrow. "What are you going to do about that?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANApjmhy7gLCu
"Uhh, if I were you, I 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAg2tFVqWIhh
wouldn't challenge them, TOP," I said as put my hand on his shoulder, 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAMkam3ghVmh
looking over at my brothers who looked set on tearing TOP apart. And I 1059Please respect copyright.PENANARL0wwNGB2F
caught a glimpse of Daesung rolling his eyes at TOP. "You would end up 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAbh8gTdw1fv
regretting it."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAA5PgDaQesr
"True," said Christine, nodding her head at TOP. "These boys are like monsters you can't beat. Only Sam can handle them."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAQGi8mQOKkO
I looked over at Christine with a look that said 'that's not true.' Christine shrugged.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAPKf7tc82gl
"Fine, I'll listen to 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAsTlDQM2yTx
you ladies," said TOP as he looked at Christine and I. "Most especially 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAqOdyt8yaiC
because Sam says so." He gave me that killer bad boy smile of his and I 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAzjg1GdYHwu
blushed.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAqMRTdQR7Ql
"Well, we better go," said Taeyang.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAxdO2TnyNSC
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.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA00696wOYTb
After TOP paid the bill, we left the restaurant with the paparazzi taking pictures as we walked out.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAZFQqqYxvLd
We got to YG just in 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA0YYaPTKvOp
time. I just hoped that Zoey and G-Dragon were back here. I didn't want 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAqiw8bNikxf
Collins on my throat and giving him the eye, wasn't going to help.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAi1wcjZvZFH
When we got to the studio, we found G-Dragon.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAxUf22w1jpW
"Hey, where did you two disappear to?" Christine asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAJYCED0OBEA
"We just went out," said G-Dragon as he looked around the room.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAhMvX76lKLL
I couldn't help but feel1059Please respect copyright.PENANAvWPSW8SGvt
that something was wrong, just by the look on his face. "What's wrong?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANA1LsC0wlZil
I asked him with my eyebrow raised.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAC0rtLX3BcK
"Huh?" He appeared to be absent minded. Was he looking for something?1059Please respect copyright.PENANAP90Kmpq6Xx
"I was asking what's wrong with you? And where is Zoey?" I asked as I also looked around.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAkSDlSxVZiM
"That's the thing," said G-Dragon. "I can't find her."1059Please respect copyright.PENANATHh8WFMOaS
I felt something inside 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAO6a3sS63z1
me break and my eyes bulged out of their sockets ready to fall out. I 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAqC79pjpefG
couldn't believe what I was hearing.1059Please respect copyright.PENANALydQEtlCZx
"Are you for real?" Taeyang asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAGFg5EQPnvS
"I'm serious," said G-Dragon.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAFwMzXGrGC0
"Wait, do you mean you 'lost' her?" Mike asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA2dajubjCeK
"I didn't lose her, I just can't find her."1059Please respect copyright.PENANARkvGGmD4cq
"That sounds more like losing her to me," said Daniel.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAcrLtcyifF6
"You guys aren't helping!" G-Dragon exclaimed throwing his hands in the air in frustration.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAxM93FqcVVr
"Where were you guys first of all?" Seungri asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA6NaQx2Z2Pa
"We first went to have lunch then the two of us went to the park."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAEgbQPESsTl
"Then?" TOP asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAxO35jNlZfh
"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."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAHPgRFovmFk
"Are you sure?" Daesung asked. "Did you look everywhere for her?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANA3jjykWry8b
"I did. I even asked people around and they hadn't seen her. I thought she would be back here."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAUQKD9xrvqG
"That would be unusual, given that Zoey doesn't really know the city so well," said Taeyang.1059Please respect copyright.PENANADbTcJBaw13
"But where could she be?" Christine asked looking as worried as I was.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAVOWKELQCLP
"Try calling her," said Seungri, turning to Christine.1059Please respect copyright.PENANApBxwYUG2Po
"I just hope she is okay," I said as I rubbed my neck.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAmMI10smREH
"What are we going to do with Collins?" Mike asked looking at me.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAuNzuGyUfFG
"I don't know," I said. "Hey, do me a favour and try to call the hotel and see if Zoey is there."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAKRuF2Pof65
"Sure thing," said Mike as he pulled out his phone.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAZIbUiyYPHR
"Her phone is off," said Christine her phone in her hand.1059Please respect copyright.PENANABJ0nnqXVFW
"Oh, no, this isn't good," said TOP.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAYfFlpxdh7B
"Again, Zoey is putting us into more problems."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAZULnIVXJFz
I couldn't help but 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAFKIJwdxvTA
wonder why she went off like that. Something wasn't right. Was G-Dragon 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAMvZUj27lI0
not telling us what was really going on?1059Please respect copyright.PENANAQHsL9mED1x
"No one has seen Zoey go into the hotel," Mike announced.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAaiAOiee9wa
"We're goners," said Seungri as he dropped himself on the couch.1059Please respect copyright.PENANABXtwxT8rjS
"We've to look for her," said TOP.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAXuQY2Sduea
"But where can we start looking?" Daniel asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAgLF94Q2Fm9
"I don't know, but we have to go and find her," I said.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAqoZzqBFyI1
"And we have to do something with Collins," said Taeyang.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAOJkLFY81HX
"Did someone say my name?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANAIQBpjpqsrC
I cringed. He was one 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAjOQolglanJ
person I wasn't ready to face right now. Everyone else wasn't ready to 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAfR6r9n6rWJ
either. We slowly turned to look behind us and Collins stood there with 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAp3puhxoJQV
the music producer.1059Please respect copyright.PENANApjmMBM1hxG
"Why are you all looking worried like someone has gone missing?" Collins asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAXtdaZUgwHr
I sighed. If only he knew. But if he does find out, he wasn't going to forgive us that easily.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAq2gWPI9mZX
Collins looked on at us, waiting to answer him. What to do now! We were going to be in such big trouble.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAXaGrfwugsU
"Looks like you aren't 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAG1UBGWawbh
going to answer me, so let's get back to work," said Collins turning 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAoPfp6rAr4r
away from us and heading towards the console.1059Please respect copyright.PENANASzfKA5frHf
"We will work on the backup vocals," said Collins. "Zoey, Sam and Christine, you're up."1059Please respect copyright.PENANALunAc4tFhR
I looked at the others 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAt7H28OQPhw
who hadn't said a word. We all looked at each other. Someone had to do 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAFvTv4NZAIz
something or else we would be toast.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA8hsGsN8mo7
"Are we going to start?" Collins asked looking behind him as he turned on his chair. "Where is Zoey?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANAnjU07cPkmc
It was about time he noticed. It looks like we ourselves weren't ready to tell him that Zoey is missing.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAJebEYT2qAN
"What's wrong with you, guys? Why aren't you saying anything?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANAaNNtjS1h8g
"Zoey isn't here," said Mike.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA7DtPvEXkP1
"Ya, I can see that. Where is she?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANAbaDpQKIXce
"She wasn't feeling too well," I said. "So she went back to the hotel."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAdpZ9p3FP28
"What? Did she eat something bad for lunch?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANAUGeSJSUTm3
"Ya. She did," said G-Dragon.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAyD6kyS9MM7
"So, do you think we should continue or do this tomorrow when Zoey is around?" I asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAccgyDNMNQ5
"We should just do this tomorrow," the music producer suggested, turning to Collins.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAspIqNZ5q70
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.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAt2yNN06r2d
"Fine," said Collins. "We really need Zoey, so we should just do it tomorrow."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAVHsXEj8iLz
Mike and Daniel almost 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAFctMvZkJsS
jumped with relief but they managed to control themselves. Christine 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAp7ZmGtrt61
turned around so that Collins and the music producer wouldn't notice her1059Please respect copyright.PENANArltC31SEuD
sighing in relief. The rest of us just stood there, pocker faced.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA7lIaNgoboX
"That's fine," said Taeyang.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAB483o3k3cx
"I really wanted us to be done with this today," said Collins.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAWyIBEazYuo
"Looks like it wasn't meant to be," said TOP.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAqo3A0vCWvx
Ya. It wasn't meant to be. Looks like we were lucky. That meant we could look around for Zoey.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAR4vzNQZxeY
"You guys can go back to the hotel and make sure Zoey is okay," said Collins.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAtXq7sAw6x2
"I'll go," said Christine. "The others can stay here if they want to."1059Please respect copyright.PENANA9rIqcWMhpz
Christine was doing the 1059Please respect copyright.PENANArzr1CM808b
right thing. If she went to the hotel, Collins wouldn't be so suspicious1059Please respect copyright.PENANAvoQlVPFa3q
of what's going on and just in case he decides to go back there at 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAJPk8CF520P
anytime, Christine might cover up for Zoey.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAsJLt3vZYiR
"Okay and what will the rest of you all be doing?" Collins asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAHppxiWLd1L
"Chilling," G-Dragon and I replied at the same time. We both looked at each other afterwards.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAO5HYo63fUt
"Fine, I have some other things to attend to. I might just go and check up on Lee and Yang Hyun-suk."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAaErujE0oYz
I wanted to ask where, 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAlBlfbl5fFO
but I knew it was none of my business. I realised that I hadn't seen Lee1059Please respect copyright.PENANA1n0ZTIChRR
the whole day. Must be she was busy with Yang Hyun-suk. Collins and the1059Please respect copyright.PENANAoXac1hOjdV
music producer soon left.1059Please respect copyright.PENANANGE16m8NDg
I walked over to the door and checked if Collins and the music producer were in the hall. But they were gone.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAocD1axDyux
"Looks like we have to split up and look for Zoey," said Taeyang.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAa3j3CQdL5V
"Ya, we should," I 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAO1AtPgQPZM
nodded my head. "G-Dragon and I will take Christine to the hotel just in1059Please respect copyright.PENANADqLr7RnlM3
case Zoey shows up and if Collins decides to go there."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAJseoyUZqle
"I'll go with Taeyang," said Daniel.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA93erDFzgf8
"And I go with Seungri," said Mike.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAJmGpvP570H
"That leaves Daesung and I," said TOP.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAbSQa8ngSxd
"Great, let's go," I said and we all walked out of the room.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAjKIa5Wu7EJ
As soon as we left the 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAz6p11pU9Wd
YG building, we split up in the parking lot. Luckily, Collins had 1059Please respect copyright.PENANANbpOiyLxjy
already left. Christine and I went with G-Dragon in his car. It was 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA3D4JE3Gf9g
important that I had to talk to G-Dragon concerning Zoey.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAiU6mpzuBKt
We soon arrived at the hotel and Christine got out of the car. I gave her my phone for it to be charged.1059Please respect copyright.PENANASh0NnEHUJE
"Call us if anything good happens," I said I looked at Christine through the window.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAiurLNotvUR
"And what if something bad happens?" Christine asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANACiprjicCUe
"Like Collins? You can handle it," I said as I gave her a smile. Christine winked and wished us luck.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAA0rzgtnOsH
G-Dragon drove away and 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAFGwa6HdKlO
we first went to the park where he came with Zoey after lunch. I just 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAGH2SqqU7kC
hope she didn't go that far and that she was okay.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAb6T320rOVC
"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.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAK6ppBMvA2f
"What?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANA4F2yKtvoYS
"Did you two argue?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANAoQNgR3QN62
"No, we didn't," said G-Dragon as he went around me and started walking towards the park.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAMhQDpm1Sez
I quickly turned and followed him. When I caught up with him, I stood in front of him to stop him.1059Please respect copyright.PENANATFOyNkt8UA
"Are you telling me the truth?" I asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAkoDxlfgGDZ
"Do you think I am lying?" G-Dragon asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAMAHI417TXN
"I think so." I said with my arms folded.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAD6aDooxx8g
"You're crazy," said G-Dragon as he walked around me again.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAbiUTX9ggYO
I huffed. He wasn't going to budge. I had to try something to get the truth out of him.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAqHtGCq605T
With quick strides, I 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA62LfQ6jIwK
caught up with him again. This time I started to walk backwards so that I1059Please respect copyright.PENANAI3HB6FVnXe
could look at him directly in his face.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAE3JfXexzk6
"What are you doing?" G-Dragon asked as he looked at me, puzzled.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAv2XY8SXnDF
"I want you to tell me the truth."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAcmqPFkOtqw
"You're stressing yourself out by walking backwards."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAhNQXA7Keqj
"Do I care?" I raised an eyebrow at him. "I know you're hiding something from me."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAV2k2DTnXMK
G-Dragon chuckled and 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAfsLyMUMNsr
that almost made me smile. "Stop playing detective, my little kitty. As 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAsXncpTZnC0
much as it suits you, you're going to trip over and fall."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAyf11gIqIN3
"Then you have to stop me from walking backwards by answering my question."1059Please respect copyright.PENANA6RX4QN04zj
"This is one silly method of interrogation if you ask me."1059Please respect copyright.PENANACcqfY34xiJ
"I can tell you're not telling me something. Zoey can't just leave like that without someone upsetting her."1059Please respect copyright.PENANA833zx7iT4R
"And how do you know?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANAi6zDhYRzk1
"I'm her best friend. 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAA7vD7at7CY
And plus, whenever someone gets her really upset, she runs off without 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA9pvPkUnnoL
telling anyone. She always wants be alone to think."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAPvk6D4McO7
"I hope she doesn't think of committing suicide."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAK0SZnq997d
"Zoey can't end her 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA5SntrkFoyo
life. Well, she hasn't tried to anyway. She's leaving the dream right 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAqn6NY2rVFl
now and ending her life this early, isn't going to sound right. Unless 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA9oYTExfhHN
you did something."1059Please respect copyright.PENANA1amtBC1BWc
"Me?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANAenVXsfb7qp
"Da! Yes, you!"1059Please respect copyright.PENANA2guVgWz7Mq
"What could I possibly have done for Zoey to try and commit suicide?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANAyOUUwkXrBX
"Don't talk about suicide like that." I hit him on the arm.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAt6TrWadbN3
"Ouch!" G-Dragon stopped and held his arm. "That hurts!"1059Please respect copyright.PENANAo4qNlDAfyu
"Well, you deserve it. Now tell me the truth." I put my hands on my hips.1059Please respect copyright.PENANACwu5fxp8CK
"I'm telling you, Zoey and I didn't argue."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAjkznhb7GRE
G-Dragon looked me in the eye and he seemed really convincing.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA98AYVnUkb6
"Okay. I believe you," I said. "But you must have said something that upset her."1059Please respect copyright.PENANACPBI1gB3hN
"I can't really remember what I had said to her. Maybe she just left on her own."1059Please respect copyright.PENANATfYx62mvY4
"And with her phone off, that's a bit strange, don't you think?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANA2S5O5MtZT3
"When we find her we will ask why she ran off."1059Please respect copyright.PENANA6LT2wFlhhK
"Ya. Sure."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAcmonM3j7gb
"Now, will you please 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA64wNZ97hdk
stop walking backwards? I don't want you to trip and save you from 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAXhYoiIMNqi
falling. That will spark rumours again like it did during the 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAn5Gu2cT9Cc
interview."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAMi4XuxboqK
I didn't say anything, 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAtLNI6PL7jU
so I just nodded my head and faced forward. We went further into the 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAoTVF6RaSeA
park and as we looked around for Zoey, we sparked some attention from 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAbTwWOTe4dt
our darling fans. We signed a few autographs and took a few pictures and1059Please respect copyright.PENANAfUAZvlXDhn
went on with our search. We even asked some fans if they had seen Zoey,1059Please respect copyright.PENANAUD1zntKEtR
but nothing.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAFk6dz7hesu
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.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAdPnbLsiANN
"Are you tired already?" G-Dragon asked as he looked down on me.1059Please respect copyright.PENANACXBdEnQu5T
"I'm not," I said as I 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA1HVYj2FEfS
removed my slippers and felt comfortable with my bare feet on the grass.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAEqYB37aDTL
"I'm trying to figure out where Zoey could be."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAmg6WZipLj5
G-Dragon sat down beside1059Please respect copyright.PENANA5DS8YSf0IC
me and the two of us were silent, looking at the pond. Laughter filled 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA8mPKG38AcR
my ears as I saw a group of kids playing from across the pond. Some 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA2iconTTjvM
couples also sat on the grass close to the pond. It was such a beautiful1059Please respect copyright.PENANAHwRlrB3Yrh
day and sitting by the pond felt so relieving.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAp2L0yr0NxK
"Have you figured something yet?" G-Dragon asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAfeyenmD2M3
I frowned and looked at him. "No, why do you ask?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANApMXg79YH8p
"You seem to be smiling to yourself," said G-Dragon as he looked at me.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAk4e8fkbElj
"No, I'm actually enjoying what I'm experiencing right now."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAyqEvZjSV0Q
"You love nature, don't you?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANAyEmyq5m2Sg
I closed my eyes, still smiling. "Ya. I really do."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAE3oteNzUZB
At that moment, I was so1059Please respect copyright.PENANA28efJktx04
caught in the little world inside my head. For a moment, I forgot about1059Please respect copyright.PENANAKMwFAyNuYu
everything. About looking for Zoey, being famous, and the whole world 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAPk4ykZ9WrX
with everyone and everything in it. It's like they never existed because1059Please respect copyright.PENANAtSxrKyHMt7
even the noise around me seemed non existent.1059Please respect copyright.PENANASZeja9iwqU
Then I felt something 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAoP4KOlIpv4
brush against my hand like a soft feather. The touch brought me back to 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA9H1cpOs3OT
reality and I quickly opened my eyes. I looked beside me and G-Dragon 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA1UzyLsITHO
was staring at me.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAFs2NE2ihvu
"What?" I asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAesKU1R2v3X
"Has anyone ever told you how beautiful you are?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANADKjhj9VTj3
I blushed all of the 1059Please respect copyright.PENANASyxovPPN7y
sudden and I looked down. His hand covered mine and for a moment I 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAgp20NvGcud
wanted to pull away. But then again, I couldn't explain how I felt with 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAdcsOf7E2uP
his hand on mine. I felt this weird comfort.1059Please respect copyright.PENANANDGRVBGXAu
I would have said yes to1059Please respect copyright.PENANAPznl9g8sQh
his question, but no words came out. This wasn't right. As much as I 1059Please respect copyright.PENANABLXPWeGitA
wanted him close to me, I knew I would end up getting hurt because we 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAEVjdDGUd3x
were never meant to be.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAqCpToXk2cd
"Umm," I pulled my hand away and put it closer to my body. "Please don't say that GD."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAiRE4ZTgxvF
"Why?" He asked softly.1059Please respect copyright.PENANALGrCN3eoZI
"Because this isn't right at all and you know it."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAUzwXQjIctp
"What do you mean?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANAWrHT7rfHzT
"You know that I ready know about Zoey and you. You guys are more like a couple."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAaHLlu5ce8O
"So?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANAYl44ADuG4M
"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."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAuhwvGIGibc
"Looks like you figured out that I don't really like Zoey as such as I like you."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAvrCwSpPZuu
I didn't say anything as I continued to figure out what to say next.1059Please respect copyright.PENANApgQ1S2VAN1
"Then why are you leading Zoey on? She doesn't deserve this, you know?" I asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAr1aBlS8KiU
"I know."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAghu3RZvtrB
"Then why are you doing this?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANAIRtGVuDm35
G-Dragon looked at me like he never had before. He soon looked away and sighed.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAfFHn6YcTSj
"I'm doing this because of you, Sam. But even if I do so, I still can't get you out of my head."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAMXPQTWkrH1
I also looked the other way, trying to act like those words hadn't affected me. But they did and they did so badly.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAe9ewl39Ib5
"You should find another1059Please respect copyright.PENANAH3CyKPy8FR
way to do so, GD." I turned to look back at him and he faced me. "But 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAKH8B1YZQri
not with Zoey. I don't want her getting hurt because of the both of us. I1059Please respect copyright.PENANAyfeaRJFSRU
will never forgive myself."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAru7lO2E252
G-Dragon nodded his head. "I'll do so."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAICPa0AV6MM
I wanted to smile but I 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAYNZnP6wC0m
couldn't bring myself to do it. I hoped he kept his word and maybe with 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA4paRkcx7Ja
this little talk we've had, we would be friends again and stop acting 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA5zoTlxSgGQ
like we had beef with each other.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAqwxk2vyVQH
Just as I was about to 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAYpMskuVnZ6
ask him why he had been giving me the attitude lately and if it had 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAiGYNFQak6F
anything to do with his jealousy, his phone rang. He quickly removed it 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAlvdpqVrasF
from his pocket and answered it.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAkmAaGCIIVi
"Hello? Christine?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANAdD8o7QC4zL
I was now attentive. Had she found Zoey? I wished I could have talked to her myself.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAoSmrLPGKBs
"Okay, we will be right there. Inform the others as well."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAH5I5XeGgPK
"What happened?" I asked after he cut the call.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAhLFFnY5DCQ
"Christine called to tell me that she knows where Zoey is."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAKQjEVeG7ed
"Where is she?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANA1fPpVG1to9
"She is at a famous café. I know where it is."1059Please respect copyright.PENANA2DdCsGVvJd
"But how did Christine know where Zoey is?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANAPNw5QJVSKA
"Zoey's phone went back on and she texted where she was. And she is not alone."1059Please respect copyright.PENANA1S4d1dgrxC
"Who is she with?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANAt69vJFosFI
"We're about to find out. Let's go."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAn1lSWyykCn
G-Dragon got up from the1059Please respect copyright.PENANAdu1HRZ9u4L
ground and he held out his hand to me. I took it and he pulled me up 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAE04LZ7Qczv
from the ground. We left the park together, heading towards his car.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAA2YxjukLJ6
When we got in his car, 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA0yydDEeMK7
we drove through the city and we arrived at this small fancy café. We 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA24RK9EQTpa
parked across the street and before we could get out of the car, I 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAPHkR7RcaF7
looked across towards the café.1059Please respect copyright.PENANALPCqCMfaR1
"Can you see, Zoey?" G-Dragon asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAEWECDcKbCd
Through the huge window,1059Please respect copyright.PENANAfPoYz8Ay0q
I could see what was going on inside. Looked like a lot of people 1059Please respect copyright.PENANABkJD1ABBHz
enjoyed coming over to the café. The place was parked for an ordinary 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAAHNQi7Zppa
day in the afternoon.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAxaOyQctKCh
I searched for Zoey, but1059Please respect copyright.PENANAxMwnX4K4u0
I couldn't see her. It was then that I saw Zoey at the far corner of 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAL1bSYUg8R0
the café. She was facing the window side and I saw her with someone. 1059Please respect copyright.PENANArlSxNWa3o4
Sitting opposite her was a man in a fancy looking black suit. From afar,1059Please respect copyright.PENANAPYgWDJMXlT
I could tell his suit was expensive and I couldn't see his face.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAHaXFunUecE
"I see her," I said. "And she is definitely with someone."1059Please respect copyright.PENANA0ysQRgkaIh
"Who is it?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANATakoveBTYW
"I don't know. By the look of his suit, he seems like a business man or one rich tycoon."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAyilL6nGs1t
"Seriously?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANAj2cA5doZ9R
"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?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANAkgSRvUIsci
G-Dragon looked towards the windshield, avoiding my gaze. "No, I'm not. I'm just wondering who it was, that's all."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAfmyE8jeLJj
I rolled my eyes and 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAaRwIMjpRpu
said nothing more. I went back to looking at the café and focused on 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAX771UCpVFV
Zoey. I decided to read her body language and see if she was okay. She 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAvLjF0haTfm
looked like she was enjoying herself, chatting with this stranger.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAC0J6qb2Ywc
She was sipping her cup 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAEcuceKaw5z
of coffee and she went back to smiling at the stranger. Something was a 1059Please respect copyright.PENANARtYLviQ9PT
bit off and I shifted on my seat to see if I was seeing right.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAYyTE5wIkke
"Hey, is something wrong?" G-Dragon asked, noticing my tension.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA9FFbC5Z5UP
"Ya."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAnyMpQPYBaw
G-Dragon also turned on his seat and looked through the window.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAcGRyydZLmK
Zoey's smile made me 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA8S5NOJLh1N
wonder what was going on. She was smiling and chatting but she looked a 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAiZgmPm4fgl
little nervous. Usually when she is with a guy, she was always the one 1059Please respect copyright.PENANARxr4z7i9mK
who was never scared of leading the conversation and became pretty1059Please respect copyright.PENANAQdNoBhxlk2
comfortable with the person. Unless the guy was creepy enough to be a serial killer.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAOvFCRW3R5k
I felt a threat coming 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAgHkAaB8ZRT
up. Was this guy dangerous? Zoey had a nervous smile on her face and if I1059Please respect copyright.PENANA1zGbg9EDu5
was not mistaken, I think I noticed her fingers tap frantically on the 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAOVUQ2FrA5k
table. She did that whenever she was nervous. I had to know what was 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAcb1sOyq1qA
going on in there.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAjG7jJW4aBY
"Let's go," I said as I turned to look at G-Dragon. "I'm not liking this."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAOKvbBpiYpA
"Thank you," said G-Dragon, looking relieved. "I had a bad feeling about this guy."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAdqYijgA89q
"Ya, right," I said as I grabbed the handle of the door, opened it and stepped out.1059Please respect copyright.PENANABeZEBNpSZM
Just as G-Dragon came 1059Please respect copyright.PENANArh4wb1NQXE
out of the car, three cars appeared off the main road and came to park 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAQDXOtE8tu6
in the parking space behind G-Dragon's car. The others had arrived.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAJTGWaJs2Mb
"Christine told us to meet you here," said Taeyang as he and Mike came out of his car.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAgTSvYnQ6v4
"Zoey's in the café," I said as I pointed across the road.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA098nbuoMMu
"Alright, let's go," said Seungri.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAYzuysNGTJ1
When I looked back at the café window, I noticed that Zoey was all alone on her table. That was odd. Where was he?1059Please respect copyright.PENANAOs2ddQmiHm
"Oh, no, no, no," I said staring wide eyed inside the café.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAg8a1C6BPj2
"What is it, Sam?" Daesung asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANApGnJJUp3Ns
I didn't answer him as I1059Please respect copyright.PENANAq5uIM9XiJG
quickly dashed across the road without even checking for any cars. I 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAyXl9YysTbC
could hear the others behind call out to me to be careful. I luckily 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAZAnGipALeF
managed to reach the café without getting hit.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAtcV3S6tZ3H
When I got to the café, a1059Please respect copyright.PENANAdBHoJ3WYHT
few people came out through the door. None of them matched the person 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAgh7GtCXv3e
who was in the café with Zoey. I quickly went in and I found Zoey still 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA1yTuAC9P0F
sitting in the corner. I rushed over to her that my presence scared her.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA5XYY9uivga
"Sam! You scared me to death!" Zoey held her chest as she breathed in and out so heavily, trying to calm down.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAkoU81lpWnA
"Where did you go?" I asked, taking the seat the stranger had been sitting on earlier.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA9by7zRl8NI
"Oh, I...um.." Zoey played with her fingers.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAh5BuRfXQAW
"Don't you dare try to 1059Please respect copyright.PENANArFmT2secI5
lie to me, Zoey," I threatened. "You went with GD for lunch and the two 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAKzvI3b8oIl
of you went to the park. When GD went to get ice cream, you had 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAXhS07Ujhii
disappeared. And the next thing we know, you're here."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAlRNK6QWYyK
"Christine told you where I was?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANA01bPQGo6e0
"Of course she had to. We were worried sick."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAlrbnAXpEtm
I heard the bell of the 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAlwI8S4MQvA
café ring and I knew the others had arrived. They soon came over by the 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAZxqIiXPRQl
table. Only Taeyang, G-Dragon and Daniel were the ones who came in.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAEotwqc0xBD
"Zoey where have you been?" Daniel asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANASH6u90Bz4x
"And who was that guy you were with, huh?" G-Dragon asked, looking down at Zoey with a frown on his face.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAdzSafkmFRB
"Awww, are you jealous, my G-Dragon?" Zoey smiled at him.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAFOxrTApzGe
"Stop taking all this 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA3wBfKk31DX
like a joke, Zoey. I saw the way you were behaving with him. You weren't1059Please respect copyright.PENANA9eiDb0x3Ix
yourself when I saw you from across the street," I said.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAvPivIbRxKL
The smile on Zoey's face1059Please respect copyright.PENANAgSZ5OPsOvn
disappeared in an instant. Good. Maybe now she would take us seriously.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAFjUVE1xhm7
Her safety was way more important than she could ever imagine. If 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA02D11Rs8F6
anything had happened to her, a lot of us here would never forgive 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAOeSlNL91HE
ourselves.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAJOxsTAVchD
"Can we please get out of here?" Taeyang suggested. "This isn't the place to discuss this."1059Please respect copyright.PENANA4NzA0f9MDu
"You're right," I said 1059Please respect copyright.PENANASrMUVsv8NG
as I looked around the café and many heads were turning our way. I hated1059Please respect copyright.PENANAVaZgncDrLT
attracting so much attention sometimes.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAKQoavpz8m8
The others had started 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAy0lxFhkhUk
to leave and Zoey and I both stood up from the table. I noticed the 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAaGxbcwcrv8
teacup the stranger had used and my mind still couldn't stop thinking 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAua4Bd9WJ5S
about who he was.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAXib0xIVMbA
After we left the café, 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAZi2ff4Lzoc
we went back across the road where the vehicles were parked. Daesung, 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA2hNspEqZ8A
TOP, Mike and Daesung stood waiting for us.1059Please respect copyright.PENANASJyY7DXd7z
"Thank goodness, you're alright, Zoey," said Daesung.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAveRMFptkjr
"Ya, thank goodness you weren't lost," said Mike. "We wondered if we would find you in a ditch or something."1059Please respect copyright.PENANA1N0rnga1no
Zoey frowned at Mike and all he could do was smile back at her mischievously.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAsYDYFrxj65
"Let's all go back to the hotel, shall we?" I suggested. "Zoey can tell us everything from there."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAr2yDzYNgQx
Zoey and I went in 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAcwhIutqGrF
G-Dragon's car making sure I sat in the backseat. The others got in the 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAS4JZJkOEl2
other cars and we drove off, G-Dragon's car leading the way.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA7ocb5Of2pH
We were all back in the 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA0pXtRlZMr3
hotel on our floor. Luckily, Collins wasn't around. I was relieved. Now I1059Please respect copyright.PENANADVVFblbCPJ
could vent out all my anger on Zoey.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAKQkZIYXb0D
We gathered ourselves in1059Please respect copyright.PENANADyW0FXnC8s
the lounge. The others sat on the couch and made themselves 1059Please respect copyright.PENANASbZXFy9ulA
comfortable. Zoey and I were left standing and I looked at her, with my 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAivN2Pg7CGB
hands on my hips.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAPRgqlnShHe
"Okay, let's start with why you disappeared?" I asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAMK0Vf9udSM
"No, don't ask that," said G-Dragon. "Ask who she was with first."1059Please respect copyright.PENANA0YgqEZIOmw
"I'm the one asking the questions." I turned to face G-Dragon. "I want to know what made her go like that."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAk5c18VdIto
"Fine, I tell you," said1059Please respect copyright.PENANAS4wdd6sLif
Zoey raising her hand to calm me down. "G-Dragon went over to get some 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA6b3METsntt
ice cream when a person came up to me. Said he was my biggest fan."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAwAORamP1AW
"Don't tell me you fell for the person's good looks like always," said Christine shaking her head.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAJUa6Kf1lbb
"You know handsome men are my weakness," said Zoey. "Sorry G-Dragon."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAAz3YewpOoD
"No, I don't mind," said1059Please respect copyright.PENANAmLTMLCLC1v
G-Dragon, shaking his head. I looked at him again and I was surprised 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAaV7EWLwlKx
with the look on his face that he really didn't mind at all.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAVNbZxjtMZQ
"So, he said he is your biggest fan and then what?" Taeyang asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAOAxlUS3uzv
"He offered that the two of us go out for some coffee," said Zoey. "That's how I left."1059Please respect copyright.PENANA4k2UcpohNm
"Now that makes no sense or maybe you have no sense, Zoey," said Seungri.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAxyigUJDybU
"Huh?" Zoey looked at Seungri, looking embarrassed.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA7kjPvUYeVT
"As much as that sounds 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA3RNbWm2B87
totally embarrassing, Seungri is right," said Christine. "What you said 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAgDdVC34k9G
doesn't make sense at all. How could you go out for coffee with someone 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAAr8i84P5im
you claims to be your fan without taking G-Dragon along with you?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANAbxvuljCSck
I started to tap my foot1059Please respect copyright.PENANAsi6LeA3sap
and looked at Zoey, ready to breathe out fire if necessary. Christine 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAdnjFj24PFP
was right and surprisingly, Seungri too. She wasn't telling us the 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAtLCRUG0IZs
truth.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAizHI2Gg8p4
"Come on, Zoey, tell us 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAGnVttUoPqg
what really happened," I said. "You couldn't leave without GD. And you 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAmNzo3dsjjM
had your phone turned off. All I know about the person you were with is 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAetS6KiI8Cm
that he was wearing an expensive black suit."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAKkauRIxwz4
"Okay, do you really want to know the truth?" Zoey asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANADNK8Vj2plk
"Yes!" everyone replied at the same time, that almost made Zoey jump in fright.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAiq093nDqx5
"Okay, okay, eish," said1059Please respect copyright.PENANAjfWTk8Y5oM
Zoey. "You scared the hell out of me. The truth is, I went with my fan 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAKIwRx7uEV7
because he insisted that I go with him and not tell anyone about it."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAPvOGeTQuY3
"Huh?" TOP looked confused.1059Please respect copyright.PENANArXsupx0y4R
"What fan lays out that kind of condition?" Mike asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA9WupcOVZVR
"Someone who was ready to take advantage of Zoey," I answered.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAXpof0d2CUS
"If he did, you guys still wouldn't have found me," said Zoey.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAQ3p7raBk6J
"If he did, you wouldn't have been looking so nervous in the café."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAkE3Jktowmp
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.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAP4yBnuMLck
"Then what were you two talking about?" I asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAEYZSStWScL
"Just stuff," said Zoey, avoiding my eyes. "About me and my celebrity life."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAxhizXy49P7
"You're sure?" I asked. "Didn't he talk about himself?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANACdYbJmWlNH
"Ya, totally." Zoey nodded her head. He never said anything about himself. Not even his name."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAxKPFnqYStg
"Then why did you look so nervous in the café?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANASodSHFuDXT
"He was asking some personal questions I didn't like."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAXsc58NtsWL
"Are you sure?" Daniel 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAbP2Zmkua5Q
asked. "When someone asks you a personal question, you either snap back 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAcxZ9GWWyCh
at them or walk away. Whether it's an annoying reporter, any of your 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAgDN2bbzIqI
haters or even us."1059Please respect copyright.PENANA1e3Bgkox1j
Daniel was right. Zoey 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAL9eqB2jDCs
would have stood and walked away from the stranger but she didn't. I 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAECDSjUwy6H
wondered what question he might have asked her. That's if Zoey was 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAE6DK6a9CVz
telling the truth.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAc2kkSw7mnS
"I didn't want to look so mean in front of him," said Zoey. "He seemed like a very nice guy."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAZqiWjdO6C8
"A very nice guy that 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAOCwkELbhFB
made you run off with him, made you switch off your phone and made you 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAJJVAq3p9vk
so uncomfortable," said G-Dragon, looking really irritated.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAGYG4fx74Gt
"Come on," said Zoey. "He wasn't that bad, seriously."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAEU3yjxY8nE
I didn't want to 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAYZ1fvZ8H63
pressurise Zoey with more questions. Right now, she was getting away 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAQGw4QU8WSl
with it. If she was hiding something, I would find out sooner or later.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAPJgw9LUALS
"Okay," I said. "We're just glad you're fine."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAJkbYvLV7xk
"And not dead," said 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAwHrY1RnKYa
Mike with a smirk. Seungri and Christine who sat on either side of him, 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA8HZLr1c6kY
both gave him the elbow in the side and he howled in pain.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAhDDbaJ2DIQ
"I'll pretend I never heard that," said Zoey.1059Please respect copyright.PENANALwi37d496y
"And you better get 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAOy8SEcISnA
ready for Collins," I said giving Zoey a smirk of my own. "We told him 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA4Q0Z9lYoxH
you had a bad tummy ache and that's why you weren't at the studio."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAkLd4tjfxI3
"Seriously?" Zoey gave me an angry stare. "Couldn't you have told him a better lie?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANAWNu7IvFzSB
"That you were missing? Fat chance. You've already put some of us into enough trouble for one day."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAIrYLbwNZ5R
"Alright. Sorry. I won't do that again."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAn03pTx7Tzw
I rolled my eyes, while shaking my head and went over to the dining table. Something told me it wouldn't be the last.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA9PSgsyyJ5J
"Well, now that you're found," said Daesung, as he stood up. "Some of us better get going."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAFtWPqJJKnt
"Sorry for putting you guys into so much trouble," said Zoey.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAvx1e9TRg49
"As long as you're fine and Collins isn't going to kill us, it's okay," said Taeyang with a smile.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAPrj5YJl16x
"I'll be leaving too," said Seungri and he gave Zoey a hug and he walked over to hug me as well.1059Please respect copyright.PENANALxfgD0tK6r
"Alright, see you tomorrow," I said.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA96iEBMnHzP
One by one the BigBang 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAUa4PXl9EdK
members started to leave, saying bye to each other. G-Dragon stayed 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAiUoBX2Xn1A
behind with Zoey so that they could talk a little. Giving them privacy, 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA3GcGTDqU1T
Christine, my brothers and I left for our rooms.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAhr9kPiO2XI
When I went in my room, I1059Please respect copyright.PENANARBxmoxU6rI
went for my phone that was still charging on my bed. The phone was 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAHmswZt1XKT
still off and I decided to switch it on. It was almost full.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA5XbGwFYjeV
There was a knock on the door and I called out to the person to come in. Christine entered.1059Please respect copyright.PENANALnEyEYkXZZ
"Hey, can we talk?" Christine asked as she closed the door behind her.1059Please respect copyright.PENANABvYXKltkTC
"About what?" I turned to look at her.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAc0rDUnQqkm
"Do you really believe what Zoey told us?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANAdKup5gFEmE
"No, I don't." I sat on the bed.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAoTRqoeoMdw
"Looks like I'm not the only one," said Christine as she came to sit on Zoey's bed, facing me.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAaQUyym73It
"I wonder why she isn't telling us the truth."1059Please respect copyright.PENANApNyNhDNc7Z
"Did you see the man's face?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANAEk62k7DYaC
"No. All I could say is that he wore a fancy and expensive suit."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAWlpxO7Rym5
"I wonder who he is. Maybe he is some rich tycoon or something."1059Please respect copyright.PENANApvz9s4KwMr
"That's what I thought too." I gave Christine a smile.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAYTfCevGXvE
"I bet he is good 1059Please respect copyright.PENANADPSlMvNfVH
looking too. I still wonder why Zoey left like that without telling 1059Please respect copyright.PENANALHabitVw2u
anyone. Do you think she really did all that just because the stranger 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAUUe2SHTmFE
told her to?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANAMcuubY6W9N
"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?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANA1zse8EJFuM
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."1059Please respect copyright.PENANArwMzuamzQZ
"You said so yourself, Christine. There is no other explanation. He might have blackmailed her or something."1059Please respect copyright.PENANASnapUrI2Bj
"Okay, but blackmailed her with what?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANAIGyfYF8mRL
"That we have to find out."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAmr98tWoVyZ
I was just about to grab my phone and check out if I had any messages when Zoey came in the room.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAi6CGJZkhWe
"Oh. Has GD left already?" Christine asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANATFqhtWHxC9
"Ya. He left," Zoey replied. I heard a bit of sadness in her voice.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAhyK0hp8Huh
"Are you okay? You don't look alright," I said.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAOkPiOnW63B
"I'm fine. G-Dragon and I talked about something serious."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAM4yZSveiwP
Oh my. Had he told her 1059Please respect copyright.PENANANl7Luwj3EE
about what we had discussed earlier at the park? As much as I knew it 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAz3iX1nyr6K
was going to hurt Zoey, it was for the best. Besides, she was going to 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAq2Gcb8dA1U
find someone way better than G-Dragon. Hopefully, even me.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAJcJBgWIXyp
"What did you talk about?" I asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAa0TzWW5gyl
"He was just pissed that1059Please respect copyright.PENANAs1zYGSUmMt
I left like that," Zoey answered. "He thought maybe he said something 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAXs822TUTpr
that might have upset me or something."1059Please respect copyright.PENANA6gZRQxaF7o
"Oh." That wasn't what I was expecting. "Well, I had asked him earlier if he had said something that might have upset you."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAJ7TYNexLLk
"But he didn't."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAyArtKiFeqc
"I see why Sam asked," 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA7sNPNaVdm0
said Christine. "When someone gets you so upset, you run away. You've 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAHAkFP8UigY
done that many times before back home during our school days, you know?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANAFNQJCvB6Et
"Ya I know. Forget about it." Zoey waved her hand in annoyance. "What's happened has happened."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAMuIGTIXLyI
And I hope it will never1059Please respect copyright.PENANA2GioPqxkNJ
happen again, but this guy in the suit still worried me. Until I know 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA6VURJgiQl9
who he is, I wasn't going to pretend that the worst has passed when it 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAqRMYnM879W
was yet to come at any moment.1059Please respect copyright.PENANApnaC98CqAp
The next thing I knew, the door to our room flew open and Lee walked in.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAaHeo5GYfMz
"Lee!" the three of us exclaimed in excitement.1059Please respect copyright.PENANACCKXho665P
"Wow! Did you guys miss me?" Lee asked with a smile on her face.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAmRdJuNcasr
"Ya, we did," said Zoey, putting her arm over Lee's shoulders.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA3ef0YNB3xN
"Well, I missed you too," said Lee. "So, what happened today? I heard you never finished up on the song."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAH6OlHrlOqc
Christine, Zoey and I 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAb49tOJVoV0
shook our heads and talked randomly at the same time, saying nothing 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAh55o1tTrxB
really happened. Lee knew something was up and even if it could clearly 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAYCb57jagg2
show on her face, she didn't push us. She just smiled.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAmiee8WaZFa
"Well, you'll tell me later," said Lee. "Collins and I were just....."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAoJSuBO3ri2
"Collins is here!" Zoey's face went white like a sheet.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAgns33FxUnt
"Yes, he is," said Lee 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAZAmf4PBzvs
with a wicked smile. "Now if you don't want to get into trouble, I 1059Please respect copyright.PENANALBzKiOwIjX
suggest you go on your bed and cry out that you still aren't feeling 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAtEfSzD8k5N
well."1059Please respect copyright.PENANA1nv2uuGgt4
Christine and I almost burst out laughing. Zoey frowned.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAXRmut3VjNu
"Ha, ha, very funny," said Zoey as she went over to her bed and sat down.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAaSjggPC4Np
"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."1059Please respect copyright.PENANA0qaG8Yci8f
"Us?" I asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANANWC61oCtww
"Ya, the letter on the package was directed to The Toxins. It's with Collins in the lounge."1059Please respect copyright.PENANARYpa3eQnLg
Christine and I rushed 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAAqYi3W9eQ3
out of the room leaving Zoey with Lee. She had to pretend she was still 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAAkK5uWmKBN
not feeling well. We found Collins in the lounge with the package in his1059Please respect copyright.PENANAUhRGkN2Gkb
hand.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA9NLv0rVz1d
"Hey, Collins," I said. "What's that?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANArvRHeGwNcG
"This came in for you guys," said Collins. "And with a letter too."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAVmKqIborrG
"Did I hear there is something for us?" Daniel asked as he and Mike came in the lounge.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAvDtTLPMFeL
"Ya. Here you go." Collins gave me the package.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAbKnYnGGlrr
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.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAwIczchOgNC
I took the letter and 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAFrMY2AoxA2
gave the package for Christine to hold and opened the envelope to remove1059Please respect copyright.PENANAll0kgiH7m1
a letter. I unfolded the letter and I read it out loud:1059Please respect copyright.PENANAIheUzHyfhC
"Hope you're all okay. Just wanted to say I'm your biggest fan. With lots of love."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAN7jV8ZBOy9
"That's it?" Mike asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAVUOG8EyxGH
"Ya, that's pretty much it," I said, looking behind the letter but there was nothing. "No name at all."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAU2RYtNlEDH
"Did you see anyone who sent this?" Daniel asked Collins.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAkZ00JmjuLa
"All that the 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA8DSXsRRZIy
receptionist told us was that some young man in a suit gave it to her 1059Please respect copyright.PENANABoUnVTc0op
and she should give either you guys or us when we came by the lobby."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAxcvjOYhNrZ
My eyes went wide and my1059Please respect copyright.PENANAlivdIUEuZC
heart pace quickened. Did Collins just say a young man in a suit? Maybe1059Please respect copyright.PENANArjN1FXwW05
I heard wrong and needed some clarification.1059Please respect copyright.PENANACrFsrxlC0t
"A young man in a suit?" Mike asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAHIAedC8eTO
"Ya. Do you perhaps know him?" Collins asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAyjmSNC0N94
"Huh, no," said Christine, shaking her head.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAlPdRLcmos9
"Oh. For a moment there, you guys looked a little frightened," said Collins. "I thought you might know him."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAunh133lfLz
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?1059Please respect copyright.PENANAgVdxdSPcI9
"Open it, Christine," said Daniel.1059Please respect copyright.PENANASjLx9CR8Ck
Christine threw Daniel 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAjWHZQ7mwXX
an angry glance. She obviously didn't want to open it and I knew what 1059Please respect copyright.PENANARi65oFx40u
she was thinking. What if there was a bomb inside? Or maybe something to1059Please respect copyright.PENANA41gnLV4JQc
threaten or blackmail us? You could only think of the worst from a 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAOjBN5RlrEn
person you barely even knew.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA8Md7P0YqDS
"Let me," I said as I took the package from Christine and I sat down on the couch with the package on my lap.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAgKLAJKFQ3R
Collins was watching us for a second and then left the lounge. I sighed in relief and so did the others.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAdWNo53K7vA
"I thought he would never leave," Mike whispered after we heard the door to Collins' room open and close.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA1Wea2E5N40
"Can you check if he is really in his room?" I asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAMFQholaab5
Mike went in the hall and came back seconds later. "He is in the room."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAV6A4B19qU3
"I'm really nervous," said Christine. "What is in there?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANAHxOQUbyfbv
"I don't know," said Daniel. "I hope it is nothing that could kill us."1059Please respect copyright.PENANANnoRWMthAQ
Mike hit Daniel at the back of his head and Daniel whined in pain.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAe3biwDPNez
"Don't say that," said Mike. "I don't want to die soon."1059Please respect copyright.PENANArJB0fetOPS
"Guys, calm down," I said. "Let's just open this thing and see what's in it."1059Please respect copyright.PENANAxaGqC1A5QF
"Okay, but take your 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAk9WnFMqBpU
time," said Christine. "If there is a bomb in there, I want to say my 1059Please respect copyright.PENANArNCm73g2XE
last prayers before I leave this earth."1059Please respect copyright.PENANA3shrxl8vBK
I rolled my eyes but I 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAbfuLqiDdSg
was as scared as the rest of them. If we were to make out of this alive,1059Please respect copyright.PENANAK1lnBtXziq
I was going to kill Zoey myself for dragging us into this mess.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAjsP8laEb9x
I started to unwrap the package. It was a white box.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAl95ZA5FbcW
The other three couldn't1059Please respect copyright.PENANAp14YGPECTz
stop staring at the box and I needed to end this paranoia once and for 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAFrNLVHFnid
all. I quickly removed the lid without thinking that there might be 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAWtbuvAWGwD
something dangerous in the box. The others even covered their faces. But1059Please respect copyright.PENANA4CMRTOeer1
nothing happened.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA55qIBgITXs
"What the....?" I looked in the box and what I saw, shocked me completely.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA03q7mcjf92
"What is it?" Christine asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAttZUSqacBJ
I looked up at the 1059Please respect copyright.PENANABYcbolbibg
others and they bended over to see what was in the box. Their jaws 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA5YivXgHkbP
dropped almost at the same time and we looked at each other.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA9m8SS0MQZG
"This is just ridiculous," I said as I shook my head.1059Please respect copyright.PENANARk4lmbiKQd
Christine, Mike and Daniel suddenly burst out laughing.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAsiRilgO2mC
Zoey and Lee came rushing into the lounge.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAGL2hu4s8CF
"Hey? What's going on?" Zoey asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA77WbCWJvAO
No one answered. I was too speechless to say anything and the rest were still laughing.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAqZHrH74NbR
"What is in the package, Sam?" Lee asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANANsesoy7WrF
I soon removed a little cute brown teddy bear and held it up for Zoey and Lee to see.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAYZ1urGpucn
"Huh? You're laughing all because of a teddy bear?" Zoey looked at the others, wondering if they were okay in the head.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA9sSl5cW3KK
"Oh, my goodness, Zoey," said Christine trying to catch her breath with tears in her eyes. "Can't you see it?"1059Please respect copyright.PENANAQnOSrTYwig
"See what?" Zoey and Lee asked the same time.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAM37Xc8JU4Q
"The...the...suit!" Mike laughed even more, pointing at the teddy bear.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA1HupH7WqFi
It was then that Zoey 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAfveHrVNd7O
looked at the bear in my hand and recognised that the tiny teddy bear 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAgvT49BwOOW
wore a tiny black suit with a tiny black tie. Zoey looked like she was 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAA5n8bykA1g
about to get sick. Looked like she already figured out it was the1059Please respect copyright.PENANAGV8WBomyp4
stranger who she was with today that sent it.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAS0akrgnAD2
"Guys, what am I missing here?" Lee asked.1059Please respect copyright.PENANARCOVCqMfuS
"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.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAamBxKxIedO
The other three continued to laugh when they saw Zoey take the bear. Lee looked as confused as ever.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAk6UT4qbp2t
"And here I thought it was a bomb," said Daniel, wiping away the tears in his eyes.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAk6Jvlig6eu
"Ya. But it just turned out to be a bear in a suit," said Christine. "A harmless bear!"1059Please respect copyright.PENANA4FFY57Arjf
This time, they laughed 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAsoUAgLCWzm
even louder and I couldn't help but start laughing too. A minute ago, we1059Please respect copyright.PENANAdL2AfskIJr
had feared for our lives and it was for no good reason. I saw the 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAgqLi0ZE4J0
reason to laugh along as well. Who knows what the future might hold? You1059Please respect copyright.PENANAJ4lCRufCRX
could die at any given day. We were just glad to be alive and laughing.1059Please respect copyright.PENANA2NoDskyKE4
"Stop it, guys," said Zoey with a frown. "This isn't funny." Lee just shook her head in disbelief.1059Please respect copyright.PENANApxqNQwP8I2
"You brought this on yourself, not us," said Mike.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAl87KoSxTxN
"What's with all the laughing?" Collins asked as he came into the lounge.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAg5O3R9zTxI
Zoey held up the bear 1059Please respect copyright.PENANASHYm2N9LNy
for Collins to see. It was such a funny site given that Zoey looked like1059Please respect copyright.PENANAgyuR9cmy6F
she was about to cry and she held the bear's little arm in between her 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAajO4pStG7K
fingers that it was dangling in midair. That sent us into another wave 1059Please respect copyright.PENANA4QIIbdwH8C
of laughter. This time, Mike and Christine were on the floor and Daniel 1059Please respect copyright.PENANAYrFE98sdJT
fell right beside me on the couch. I laughed so hard my stomach ached.1059Please respect copyright.PENANAhUlydpYsQE
And surprisingly, Collins laughed too.
