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.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0UuLDTpYD
I had never been this 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1g2nkpiZzW
late in my entire life. Not even when I had my own personal 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLFEC7wLmh
appointments. The others would be wondering why I was so late. And 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKLiX7ex03B
trying to explain the reason why, would have them blown away.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzxVpojo7Mf
"Sam, are you still there?" Zoey called out to me from our room.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZquAZb8Os
I didn't want to answer. I was quite irritated. But if I didn't, she would start to freak out.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡESHcOsQSEh
"Sam!"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6DRqJ0K59b
I rolled my eyes. "I'm still here, Zoey," I answered.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxxc1QWaofc
Zoey came out of the 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4onThZ8Cy
room and came to the lounge where I was seated waiting for her. I was on981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCntI00fcOd
the couch and I looked at her, then back at my watch.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXxmlK94KC
"Did you find what you're looking for?" I asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLsNsu1iBDJ
"No, I haven't," said Zoey.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUK2TiUHe4
"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."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKFfsl97sPS
"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.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0mLk5UOkod
"Zoey, it's just a stud and you have plenty of those like it in your jewellery box."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVIobRVbrwJ
"But those are my favourite studs," said Zoey. "You know they are diamond, right?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡREHhwYSzF0
"I know because I bought you those studs for your birthday a year ago."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKFrVRIH9X
"Oh. Ya, I know." Zoey had a look on her face that told me she forgot about that.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡffh4dxJ3m5
I ignored her and said, 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5lFV28mOU
"just get another pair of studs or don't put on any at all. For my sake.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKDd7W1x85V
And Collins' too. We were supposed to be at the studio at 10."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzlfMD4YlwB
"What time is it?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfRpCPpOABG
"10:35."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUTOE3QIR8
"Wow, time really passes by."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFat2Zl1YIF
"When it comes to you, it does. Come on, let's go."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQSK6rQkZs
"Let me go get my phone."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkafj5asi30
Zoey rushed back to the 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6s1LWGT2dd
room and I hoped she wasn't going to get back to looking for her missing981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuj63bxfz9k
stud. She sometimes did the opposite of what she had to do. But anyway,981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3PRSjPIMM
that was Zoey.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3v84ozewaK
I soon received a 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGDryiYylQ6
message from Collins threatening me to get to the studio as soon as 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9gp46kNmK
possible. In no less than five minutes. I moaned. He knew we couldn't 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxQVtlAwrh
get there in five minutes. That's if we were superheros.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGvN8wTaY4
"Zoey, come on, we better go!"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoGspWYjWpB
"I'm coming."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyKUQKeXU5r
I started heading 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhrITlOeucO
towards the elevator and my phone beeped again. Another message. 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ96RW5t55Ei
Hopefully it wasn't Collins again telling us he would hang us to death 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIc2Ivingus
if we didn't make it in time. But I was surprised to see an unknown 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrH1EAaETYv
number. A number coming from another country.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtryBmoKBdI
"Oh, who is this?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCmfHn1Xsj
Before I could open the message icon, Zoey came rushing from behind and bumped into my back. That almost made me drop my phone.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5FZlxJ5ZCe
"My goodness, Zoey!" I said as I looked at her. "You should look where you're going. I almost dropped my phone."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNaRz2RRrh
"Sorry," said Zoey as she also looked at me.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Xaas1bTDg
"Come on, we're already late."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRn6lw8wrSE
We went into the 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJYQmBBLtI
elevator and I put my phone away in my jeans jacket pocket. A black 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQuMQ9FAQK
Chevrolet SUV was waiting for us outside. The others had already left 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUMmb8accP
for the studio and I had stayed behind because of Zoey's missing stud.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfxfQUjQA1o
When we got to YG, 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzLzKwfxyM
Collins stood there by the entrance, obviously waiting for us. He looked981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4rrI6Weuju
like an angry father ready to scold at his kids for coming home late.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnuNLyDNaC
"Don't tell me all this is your doing, Zoey," said Collins as we approached him.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpH8GQdsy1p
"No, no, it's not," said Zoey as she shook her head.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNflTPw96yy
"Says the person who isn't wearing her studs today."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8mTPLI8M6r
Zoey held her earlobes 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡexH5cxwCW2
and looked at me with a surprised look on her face. I shrugged. I had to981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSkMKjA3X2P
tell Collins why we delayed over the phone. At least he believed me, 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hNELtHwEp
knowing that he already knew what was Zoey was like.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUVOMxq8LYa
"Come on, the others are waiting and they didn't want to start without you," said Collins.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5pWLGqTre
"They had to wait," said Zoey, flipping her hair. "I'm singing the first verse alongside G-Dragon."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcP13A1gc8X
"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.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9bD1ENUj7T
"I'll try." I smiled. Zoey stuck out her tongue at Collins.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS57TiF0MSg
We got to the studio and we found everyone else waiting for us, lazing around on the couch.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtqNFWd2tqN
"Hey, you're finally here," said Seungri.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1RfpPT3hHD
"Sorry, we had an issue back at the hotel," said Zoey.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaYdRRBMlb0
"Ya. A 'serious' one." I said as I rolled my eyes.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFx4wYutwf
"I can't wait to get started," said Daniel excitedly as he stood up from the couch.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡixaY9PPDqv
"Then let's do so," said981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD7hapuBPEZ
Collins as he joined the music producer by the console. "Zoey, Taeyang,981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpFmN6e0eow
Christine, Sam and G-Dragon, we will start with you guys."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5pKaGakzp
I had completely forgot 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwt9A41Dg4
that G-Dragon was even in the room. I hadn't noticed him at all when he 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQFmMcoNSy
stood up from the couch and came towards Zoey and I.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjN4p0boQAu
"Hi, Zoey," G-Dragon greeted Zoey.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxxnNoZjsZY
"Hi," said Zoey with a wide smile on her face.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfySo4MqWu
"Ahem," Christine came from behind as she cleared her throat. "Let's go. You two can talk later."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJbUK3QDhm
I rolled my eyes and together with Taeyang and Christine, we went into the live room together, followed by the two love birds.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDEHyQ6tx2t
In the live room, there 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDzU3pdMXff
stood five microphones and with each mic had a pair of headphones around981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXNWjG2bBGS
it. We each stood in front of a microphone and put on the headphones.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEPwj30uaHk
Ahead of us was a window where we could see the others from the other side.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgnESm0qz5h
"Are you guys ready?" Collins asked as his voice was heard through the speaker in the live room.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5HMZFBuyn
I looked at the others 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtEE4AaAKqi
to see if they were settled and gave Collins a thumbs up and the music 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlsrFukVBwU
producer started to play the tune for the song.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuEWWYacFMO
G-Dragon started to sing981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3HFPV9WCa
and then afterwards, Zoey followed. Their voices blended so well with 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQIDrAbTvH
the music, they made a perfect harmony. Looked like I did a good thing 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjKITjmfRi
to let them sing the first verse together.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCmO7bK0t5
Collins, the music 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk676QBdX6k
producer and the others outside the live room had smiles on their faces.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cIjbghsP3
They were loving it alright. Collins gave them a thumbs up.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfnx6Hc4ze
Christine then sang the 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KIo707Vqo
bridge and as she came came closer to the chorus, I joined in. Then 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1SCVZDkSnr
Taeyang and I sang the chorus together.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9hQQEIMUGG
When we were done, the music producer stopped playing the track.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm44eXKf0Gn
"That was awesome, guys," said Collins as his voice came out through the speaker. "The song is so incredible."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3oC7AdIrUq
"Ya, thank Sam," said Taeyang. "She is the one who came out with all of this."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4E1kpjBOh3
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."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCUrmrRCUY
"Okay, Sam and Taeyang, I981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9FfCQlJPno
want you two to go through the chorus again, this time with a little 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKdjXIlmc9l
more high tempo and see how it sounds," said the music producer.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS3x1OmidW4
"Okay," Taeyang and I said at the same time.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0ZHIgcVpd
"Shall GD and I leave then?" Zoey asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbr3q9oNULK
"You may," said Collins,981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsYwny6dQPb
looking a little irritated on his face. "But don't leave the studio. 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwAts3rV9pt
You have to work on the backup vocals."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaLJDKZoElf
"Alright, we will be here," said Zoey, with a grin on her face.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡypFnedP52B
If I hadn't known 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡesukWSCtxF
better, something told me Zoey and G-Dragon were up to something. They 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHrQbbAvsD
looked like little mischievous children as they smiled at each other and981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9yvFMJ6vJG
they walked out of the live room. I couldn't help but feel a little 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8cqvzG2n6
hollow inside.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8g3JrPWnsK
"So, we will start from Christine's part," said the music producer.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHER9ZibSu
We continued recording 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3eltyYlHgw
the song and later on, TOP, Mike, Daesung, Seungri and Daniel also came 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMojvElLDu
into the live room. It took us a while to record the whole song, trying 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNtt345TKF
to make our vocals blend in with the song but we were done.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITuKzVT1Dj
"Great job guys," said Collins. "Let's break up for lunch and then we can come back and work on the backup vocals."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzxMxY0zFbj
"Alright," said Mike as he took out his headphones. "I'm pretty hungry now."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM4i072da3e
"The song is amazing," said Christine. "And it's catchy that you can sing it the whole day."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZaEwjCzZeU
"Ya," said TOP. "Why don't we all go somewhere special for lunch?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMC9cs3SuiG
"Like where?" I asked as I put the headphones on the mic.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtYy2z693M
"Some restaurant I think we will like," said TOP as he looked at me with a killer smile.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Oo4gzk2QW
"That sounds great." I turned to the window to look at Collins who obviously heard everything. "Can we go, Collins?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4AHYrUghXI
"Ya, you can go," said Collins waving his hand irritatingly in the air.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYTkipkuYn
"Yes!" Daniel punched the air with his fist.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmsvfi1Rhld
"But be back within an hour."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1SPrySIVah
I raised an eyebrow at Collins who then rolled his eyes at me and groaned.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdbH2uW5ooF
"Fine, an hour and a half."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBNjriHE6m
I did a little victory dance in my heart and I smiled in triumph. Collins and the music producer soon left the studio room.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66vNWNDgCc
"How did you do that?" Daesung asked as we all walked out of the live room.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg6drbmaw5U
"Do what?" I asked with a smile on my face as Daesung was right behind me.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkqBjURjGrv
"How did you convince Collins to give us an hour and thirty minutes?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gfqyjVOIj
"That, my friend," said 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXnh1pnk5ug
Mike behind me, "is the way my sister does her thing. Just by a look in 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpFbPsSthIb
her eyes and you will have to do whatever she wants."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5sV7Dh4KhW
"That's not true," I said as I turned around to look at Mike who had his hand on Daesung's shoulder.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUP8cAAubdA
"Really? I beg to differ," said TOP as he winked at me.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeRnyOy5y77
"No one does what I want them to do just by looking at them in the eye," I said, looking away from TOP, blushing.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWbr01lPQe
"Well, it does work, most of the time," said Christine nodding her head.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡic3mc29yds
"Oh, ya? Like when?" I folded my arms.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡokVfTx3fw2
"Whenever you want us to981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1sj7jnJbX
tell you the truth about something and we refuse, you always give us 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxoM7O5hkO2
this eye that makes us give in," said Daniel.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ86eDvqV955
"For real?" I raised an eyebrow.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5oyoXv2mrn
"Ya, your eyes burn and we just can't take it," said Christine.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwFZipyg740
"Huh," I thought of all 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2wJC2vFuSr
the times when either of my brothers or the girls ever did whatever I 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3pwgHFRXBz
wanted them to do just by me giving them the eye.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1XxDEXixX
"But that doesn't explain with Collins though," said Taeyang.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZsT9QsDbLD
"Thank you, Tae," I said feeling relieved.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD5vc7k9zjD
"Come on, Sam," said 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN35YBZn8jZ
Daniel. "You might not know it, but Collins listens to you because you 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5gcIywdDP
also give him the eye. And also probably because you're his favourite."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡconWytm3Mv
"That makes no sense." I shook my head.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKXeCQjC7m0
"I believe him," said Seungri. "Looks like you have a way of getting to Collins to make him agree with you."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtaxdONXSq2
"But he doesn't agree to me all the time," I slowly shook my head.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDeGITAOOUY
"On some ocassions like this one, he does," said Christine with a smile.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHoPLxU5ML
"Can we please just go for lunch?" I asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUODcJdpwm4
Seungri came over to open the door for me, but just as I was about to step out of the room, I stopped.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDXp4xUCu6
"Guys?" I turned around to look at the others. "Where are Zoey and GD?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKvJQXiQuPU
We all turned towards the couch and noticed that there was no one there. I went back in the room and looked around.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡArGe90ITYi
"They aren't here," I said.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkoXOgBisho
"These guys don't stop surprising us with their disappearing acts," said Daesung.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5875VtLvN
"I'm surprised Collins didn't notice," said Seungri.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKDCCl7fUG
"Hopefully, they will be back before we start on the backup vocals," I said.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTBtq42Z2it
"Then let's go then," said TOP. "Wherever those two are, they are fine."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdgGCn2it7W
I nodded my head and we 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0iCJ1AfwbX
all left the room. As we headed down to the ground floor, I reminded 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7klbeHJ3Q
myself to leave a text message for Zoey.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzE3wtBNG33
We were in the lobby and981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7VioPI0PYQ
I stopped to remove my phone. I went over to messages and realised that981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiHoeBLLYt9
I had one unread message. It was the message I had received this 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSoFay3gQnr
morning.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIMeYUqKHjn
I first sent Zoey a text981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcMitIeuBqD
message then I decided to read the unknown message from this unknown 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBezEumL1Md
person. Then TOP appeared right in front of me.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsVF220GVT6
"Hey, what are you looking at?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUb5vZxRO2x
I was startled by his sudden appearance that my thumb pressed the exit button and I had gone out of my messages.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2BQ4Htfc8
"I was just sending Zoey a message," I said.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA664MrLgFM
"Okay, shall we go?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxmNSShDzzP
"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.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZe5rsCaWlv
"Oh, you guys look like you're going out," said Christine with a smile.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaCz53NPI0X
"We're all going out for lunch aren't we?" I asked with a smirk.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4P1LhA0b9j
"Ya, we are," said Daesung, looking the other way and scratching the back of his head.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGhhgMhODG
"We better go or else our one and half hours will elapse in no time," said Daniel.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxLIHnZzWaA
Instead of using any one981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdelZUJb6N5
of the BigBang members personal cars, we used the two black SUVs. We 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8uim94oCKQ
were driven to a fancy restaurant and as usual, we grabbed a lot of 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3K30awSPi
attention, especially from the customers.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOZF5vStiF
I had to admit, the 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxnoMXLaefo
restaurant was nice and classy, suitable for the famous and the rich. As981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69rbmYO4Tv
I walked into the restaurant with the others, a fancy glass chandelier 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUFvzJ1Xco
caught my eye. The polished wooden floor shone almost like glass under 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtraX0vkCKm
the lights the chandelier reflected all over the room.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3z7Bn4ilmq
A smartly dressed 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡthZ0elQaa6
waiter, who by the way, was super cute, came over. He gave us a friendly981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJxK6jsvys8
smile and I felt Christine nudge me by the shoulder and when I turned 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxV6k0hjZIy
to her, she was smiling. Looked like she also noticed the waiter's good 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGvc7TMe6S
looks too. Damn! Why were Korean men so good looking?981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVGvCwqJFM
We were escorted to a 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7E77KCbOhG
round table big enough to cater a whole lot of people. Even ten. But 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzOnAJssHnY
sadly, Zoey and G-Dragon weren't here.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEsmrQyVLme
TOP pulled a chair for 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSyCuNq9b9C
me and I sat down, thanking him as he took his seat beside me. Seungri 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjc0U2GSJJN
pulled a chair for Christine who sat on my other side and Seungri sat 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcUMpVJDolk
beside her.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWhS8lPi0a
"This place is so lovely," I said as I looked around.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqaFduMCovR
"Tell me about it," said Christine.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ijrTFLz0k
"I knew you would like it," said TOP.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8JPq4X4aB
"Ya, it's exquisite, but I'm only here for the food," said Mike who sat opposite me.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZSVveR551
"So, let's order," said Daesung.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUtscOPatzt
I took the fancy looking menu with the colour of velvet and the letters written in gold. Classy.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtr8AoK1azc
After our delicious meals had been served, we ate. I enjoyed it as I savoured every little food in my mouth.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsVcxTRAZKw
As we were having our 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxY0bVuZGnQ
dessert, we were chatting and there was a lot of laughter all around our981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1rF3TdtBt
table. It was fun to be like this, all together as good friends and 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVO7BcmYh8E
laughing about. I kind of wished Zoey and GD were here. I bet they were 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLPh0yly1p
having fun wherever they were.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwumieRTCAP
While I was having my 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ09OEtEnAFi
strawberry cake, I felt the vibration of my phone in my pocket. Must be a981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35cqePqctL
message. I took out my phone and I was shocked to see that the same 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyO7wi1fmBN
unknown number had sent me a message again.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Ze0Myt3Sy
I tapped on the message 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJU2M0ZZI7o
icon and the first message the unknown number had sent to me was a 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡno15FtjKzG
photo. I had to download it first before I could even see it. And then 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZCd3b59Sj
the next message was more surprising.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUKwAfSxWxm
"Aren't you going to do anything about this?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlvIY6sPoFX
Anything about what was 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV3xd2EgGag
the question. Had this had to do with the photo? Must be or else the 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgctj5HIYY0
unknown person wouldn't have texted me this message.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡchegDcQPBL
I decided to turn my data on and download the photo. Just as I was about to, my phone went off.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Eq3JbfC2O
"Dang it!" I muttered to myself.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk9d9OWO7uX
"Hey, what's wrong?" TOP asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJdbRKxwYkZ
"Nothing, my phone went dead. I hadn't charged it last night."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQJbhckOSu
"Was there something important you wanted to do?" Taeyang asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡurc9difc6t
"Not really, it's not important." I shook my head but my thoughts still lingered on the unknown photo.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIu2GLz2fbw
"Did Zoey text you back?" Christine asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6BGnxoLlj
"No, why?" I asked as I picked up a piece of strawberry cake with my fork.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZbH9cWv7Sj
"Well, your phone vibrated so I thought you had received a message from her."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQ5CRG1EEk
"It was nothing. Wherever Zoey is, she is having a lot of fun."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBoD68kqxXV
"Hey, what's up with GD and Zoey anyway?" Taeyang asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb22qB50tJU
"Isn't it freaking obvious?" said Daesung. "Those two seem like a couple now."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2xPcysfN3
I almost choked on my cake but instead, I cleared my throat. Christine rolled her eyes.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAwyMtZ2ci
"Well, that wasn't going to go on unnoticed forever," she said.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPHwXAAf520
"Wait, for real?" Taeyang asked, with a look of surprise.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefXDPbOh8A
"And you already knew, didn't you?" Mike asked looking at Christine.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS11mzE62bv
"Oh, please," said Christine rolling her eyes. "Don't tell me you haven't noticed how close those two are nowadays."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtshXkDi30P
"They have always been close," said Seungri. "But this time, they are just way too close."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtJUhtbbuh
"For them to disappear like that together, it counts for something, right?" TOP suggested.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUHQWt8U8n
"Can we please stop 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCd0ZpVWNJZ
talking about it?" I asked. "There are people around and if they hear 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimYhE6yabG
all this, some of us would be hanged when this spreads like wild fire."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCBHDxnXJfB
"Why do you say that?" Daesung asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAudlEYMaPs
"Oh, oooh, oh," said Daniel waving his hand from across the table. "May I say it?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡscpqEfu5sp
"No, let me," said 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHADvRN77K
Christine, as she put her hand on mine and looking at me convincingly to981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIgOFLyMJT
allow her to say what she wanted to say.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKsTbKJEEDU
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.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdaNPNs4YAv
"Because, Collins gave 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGAZBIxWIk1
these girls a golden rule when we were coming here," said Daniel. "And 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFoJyeVMTx
that is, none of them should date any one of you BigBang members. 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSiwhnBHIbU
Never."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQC6Yb8ZRhC
There was silence on the981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkAzbeyiPl0
table and I couldn't help but feel a little downcast. Christine 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2XKzvsilk
continued to eat her dessert like nothing serious had been said. I 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMcfd5CfSCs
looked over at my brothers who seem to be enjoying our humiliation.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡns82cCkRdx
"Is that true?" Seungri asked, looking over at me.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfMOMd4EH3
"Ya, it's true," I said as I slowly chewed the cake in my mouth.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGPSXXw2h8x
"Oh." Daesung looked a little disappointed as he stared down at his plate.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZ2qDs6nBm
"Who cares? It's not like it's that serious," said TOP as he shrugged.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡboGE7Onlhh
"It's serious to 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWU0njXF5Ob
Collins," I said as I turned to look at TOP. "We're only here to 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtG2ehOxPbm
collaborate with you and that's all. Not date, get married and have 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGbbYYnGSZ
babies."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXisVm4Vzwz
That was odd coming out 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmcBQIvNTVH
of my own mouth and the others knew it too. Everyone's eyes were on me, 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrIhfUDET3
with looks on their faces that I couldn't describe. This was 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xdMGA28tO
embarrassing. My hands were now curled into fists as they rested on my 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ09mKTNeHL
laps.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs4svkuM6eR
"Sorry, that came out wrong," I said.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0dN6qmZgRV
"Well, you did catch us by surprise by saying that," said Taeyang.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV3bTWUFy5p
I really did. Something 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrlwY90aaPj
had gone totally wrong with me and I could feel it. My thoughts were 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP7TO85cl6R
spinning in my head and I felt like I had no control over how I felt.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rAX94JHYU
"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.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwmfINfnWu2
I quickly closed the 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlGTsq6Nqy
door immediately I stepped in the ladies' room, leaning my back against 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKPfZKcyDjj
the door. My hands flew to my hair and I took a deep breath. I walked 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSdSPSNcFJ
over to the sink and stared at myself in the mirror.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs2G0Eu3mWI
"What's wrong with you today?" I asked my reflection.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDUWl9PyNKZ
I shook my head and I 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFeaZiOaDIn
knew I wasn't alright. Something was definitely wrong. Was it the fact 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBWfpPzWW5
that Zoey and G-Dragon were together? As far as I know, I wasn't really 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXIGkzBGSQT
supposed to care. But I did.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj9EVoX4RFq
I looked at myself and I981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5e2Bw0nlam
could see the sadness in my eyes. Were they for G-Dragon? I shook my 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBr2XlMRC6a
head at the thought. No. They weren't. He and I were still at war with 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcdAtPKcgAH
each other and that made no sense. I had to stop thinking about these 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVu3dsERSEY
things and focus on what's really important.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQcYBhlsyI
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.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMvEcDierru
"Are you okay, Sam?" Mike asked as I sat back down.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ02WAhs0eUT
"Ya, I am. I just feel horrible that I said that."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRgnxvfeku
"We think we know why you did," said Christine.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNpcpOG8aG
I gulped. What had these981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4k9aU6iNXA
guys thought of now? If it was what I thought it was, I would rather 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1OGRr9iTBi
not hear it. There was a moment of silence at the table.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFjVLD2kblf
"Zoey has you so worked up that you're irritated," said TOP.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡokD1eK5B25
That was not what I was expecting. I was wide eyed and in my heart, feeling a little relieved.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDfsUWqfU1
"Ya, I remember when we were coming here in the plane and Collins told you to watch over Christine and Zoey," said Mike.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvznKP5Mm6
"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.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN0wpfCR59R
While Christine was one 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHWgXfWM8aS
who at least had her hormones in check, Zoey and I were pretty much 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyfgQ3EhJLI
guilty. I couldn't tell who was worse between either of us. I bet I was 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcHhEHle96
worse.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOYVPEIl2n
"Well, I guess I'm also guilty myself like Zoey," I said, admitting to everyone.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCwKP8JJuz
"If you mean TOP flirting around with you, then trust me, you're not," said Daniel.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBGvby2GiRo
"Hey!" TOP looked a little annoyed but rather amused. He ended up laughing.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwtfE3Uz4e
"And me calling you my panda," said Seungri, with a smirk.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPhXAhUXSj
"You see, Sam, people just like you," said Mike. "And these guys shouldn't dare make a move of kissing you."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnz65fjjf1E
I blushed. "Mike!"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5LhYrI8Jhw
"Don't worry, he is just being protective over his sister," said Daesung, laughing.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1PdYafyHOE
"I've tried kissing 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0tmdK9Zmc
her," TOP challenged as he looked over at my brothers. He raised an 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4hzR7mrXV
eyebrow. "What are you going to do about that?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7JUeB2raH
"Uhh, if I were you, I 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMfukvN9WXK
wouldn't challenge them, TOP," I said as put my hand on his shoulder, 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt996QEY11r
looking over at my brothers who looked set on tearing TOP apart. And I 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzFHPpoNaho
caught a glimpse of Daesung rolling his eyes at TOP. "You would end up 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWr45gYm5he
regretting it."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvEI2tt2n6
"True," said Christine, nodding her head at TOP. "These boys are like monsters you can't beat. Only Sam can handle them."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaoUfHgOuSO
I looked over at Christine with a look that said 'that's not true.' Christine shrugged.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlREbSJryl
"Fine, I'll listen to 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhMVgywp1F
you ladies," said TOP as he looked at Christine and I. "Most especially 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwsqkLJHdUN
because Sam says so." He gave me that killer bad boy smile of his and I 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV4BBpzBWKk
blushed.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDIGflSMfhW
"Well, we better go," said Taeyang.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkTwcIWV43
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.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60jdZAW55l
After TOP paid the bill, we left the restaurant with the paparazzi taking pictures as we walked out.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ21qSZtemD7
We got to YG just in 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLL3xWdGywa
time. I just hoped that Zoey and G-Dragon were back here. I didn't want 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvkU0NPkboD
Collins on my throat and giving him the eye, wasn't going to help.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPmzSUuPsRN
When we got to the studio, we found G-Dragon.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxp1ETFy3b
"Hey, where did you two disappear to?" Christine asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SfDVSWZYM
"We just went out," said G-Dragon as he looked around the room.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHaV8sCgAzH
I couldn't help but feel981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡob06xpAzAx
that something was wrong, just by the look on his face. "What's wrong?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAmoBk5nwod
I asked him with my eyebrow raised.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMc5PvBxmFB
"Huh?" He appeared to be absent minded. Was he looking for something?981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaa5YANqgGL
"I was asking what's wrong with you? And where is Zoey?" I asked as I also looked around.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTpYZt67gHe
"That's the thing," said G-Dragon. "I can't find her."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKprB2B5BQ
I felt something inside 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOo3gLEO8Ck
me break and my eyes bulged out of their sockets ready to fall out. I 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgypXV3ACb
couldn't believe what I was hearing.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPtdBwDtfXY
"Are you for real?" Taeyang asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI0QJuoh3XJ
"I'm serious," said G-Dragon.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqONR2VGyY
"Wait, do you mean you 'lost' her?" Mike asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzccE4aCji
"I didn't lose her, I just can't find her."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkjWV0W1xYo
"That sounds more like losing her to me," said Daniel.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8xTKok1dC
"You guys aren't helping!" G-Dragon exclaimed throwing his hands in the air in frustration.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE4Z2JoKuXC
"Where were you guys first of all?" Seungri asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28XOZYOzcC
"We first went to have lunch then the two of us went to the park."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡElKAYDlteb
"Then?" TOP asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vRVVE8hcB
"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."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzKoyS9YXn
"Are you sure?" Daesung asked. "Did you look everywhere for her?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxG4S7ssIb
"I did. I even asked people around and they hadn't seen her. I thought she would be back here."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaDmVkoKEX5
"That would be unusual, given that Zoey doesn't really know the city so well," said Taeyang.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGBaEg8rrN
"But where could she be?" Christine asked looking as worried as I was.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5a4KSEoHqS
"Try calling her," said Seungri, turning to Christine.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5T2Sp8PcV
"I just hope she is okay," I said as I rubbed my neck.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSKYZyc5To6
"What are we going to do with Collins?" Mike asked looking at me.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmB2C7qaoYJ
"I don't know," I said. "Hey, do me a favour and try to call the hotel and see if Zoey is there."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXEdDeEdjs
"Sure thing," said Mike as he pulled out his phone.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMS6h1gBNO
"Her phone is off," said Christine her phone in her hand.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQ4j4ptNnd
"Oh, no, this isn't good," said TOP.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHUR8runiIs
"Again, Zoey is putting us into more problems."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGHTYM78Fn
I couldn't help but 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6NOqqm8R8
wonder why she went off like that. Something wasn't right. Was G-Dragon 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6cR7O5OiW1
not telling us what was really going on?981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4hU9ezfTy
"No one has seen Zoey go into the hotel," Mike announced.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvm7yvtTIx
"We're goners," said Seungri as he dropped himself on the couch.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuEBHXbJpDk
"We've to look for her," said TOP.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhFbFWtOGwY
"But where can we start looking?" Daniel asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfcZsLv9LR
"I don't know, but we have to go and find her," I said.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5xlKjJDMS
"And we have to do something with Collins," said Taeyang.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNNdljyqJ0w
"Did someone say my name?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOgK1MO5dNM
I cringed. He was one 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FyXIe3gCI
person I wasn't ready to face right now. Everyone else wasn't ready to 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6aBSCJrAO
either. We slowly turned to look behind us and Collins stood there with 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Ap1kQd4jz
the music producer.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkOIMpEqRG4
"Why are you all looking worried like someone has gone missing?" Collins asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW6toGSChlr
I sighed. If only he knew. But if he does find out, he wasn't going to forgive us that easily.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4N9D87Z01s
Collins looked on at us, waiting to answer him. What to do now! We were going to be in such big trouble.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKcTDdhEy6I
"Looks like you aren't 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuppkTjrIYu
going to answer me, so let's get back to work," said Collins turning 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqGWEDO3SC
away from us and heading towards the console.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡawjj44L0bo
"We will work on the backup vocals," said Collins. "Zoey, Sam and Christine, you're up."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQSgcXJq1q
I looked at the others 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhIhwEBFKI
who hadn't said a word. We all looked at each other. Someone had to do 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj3KVBO8wvE
something or else we would be toast.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0PycECW9HR
"Are we going to start?" Collins asked looking behind him as he turned on his chair. "Where is Zoey?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSAGVuq6BWZ
It was about time he noticed. It looks like we ourselves weren't ready to tell him that Zoey is missing.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfbfiAYvRTb
"What's wrong with you, guys? Why aren't you saying anything?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXGejKIMuG
"Zoey isn't here," said Mike.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9lD9pGq3qV
"Ya, I can see that. Where is she?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNRwNpWOZb
"She wasn't feeling too well," I said. "So she went back to the hotel."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrX1hJGj4wz
"What? Did she eat something bad for lunch?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIaB3nNA19m
"Ya. She did," said G-Dragon.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYYFmgGIJE
"So, do you think we should continue or do this tomorrow when Zoey is around?" I asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5XWrue4Og
"We should just do this tomorrow," the music producer suggested, turning to Collins.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ91kVBu4yTY
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.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBxQPGeXxr
"Fine," said Collins. "We really need Zoey, so we should just do it tomorrow."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKB6yPEarj
Mike and Daniel almost 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgAarrJOhFQ
jumped with relief but they managed to control themselves. Christine 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSt8sZpLbuR
turned around so that Collins and the music producer wouldn't notice her981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUN1asTwMr
sighing in relief. The rest of us just stood there, pocker faced.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFwO8C3ONR
"That's fine," said Taeyang.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwETUcfgSJM
"I really wanted us to be done with this today," said Collins.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHqHOp42lA
"Looks like it wasn't meant to be," said TOP.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BMgGSrKxM
Ya. It wasn't meant to be. Looks like we were lucky. That meant we could look around for Zoey.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKRmeyBolB
"You guys can go back to the hotel and make sure Zoey is okay," said Collins.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWR4mDPZviI
"I'll go," said Christine. "The others can stay here if they want to."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgibMsBiPG6
Christine was doing the 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovJjWdPUmC
right thing. If she went to the hotel, Collins wouldn't be so suspicious981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcf8MfrQpey
of what's going on and just in case he decides to go back there at 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8hHVCayRhr
anytime, Christine might cover up for Zoey.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKSpjGCzWVx
"Okay and what will the rest of you all be doing?" Collins asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8F7zeyWxPK
"Chilling," G-Dragon and I replied at the same time. We both looked at each other afterwards.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAnqPT0t74Q
"Fine, I have some other things to attend to. I might just go and check up on Lee and Yang Hyun-suk."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDee2wXJeri
I wanted to ask where, 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm9exLyDy68
but I knew it was none of my business. I realised that I hadn't seen Lee981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7E5efjdHFz
the whole day. Must be she was busy with Yang Hyun-suk. Collins and the981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡymLRQM1Raf
music producer soon left.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIkLF3mEJvA
I walked over to the door and checked if Collins and the music producer were in the hall. But they were gone.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ34L0l4Ao0Q
"Looks like we have to split up and look for Zoey," said Taeyang.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYIQvxZJAy
"Ya, we should," I 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWww0L7mFv
nodded my head. "G-Dragon and I will take Christine to the hotel just in981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtcqFmo7jRD
case Zoey shows up and if Collins decides to go there."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZfxaZ8m05
"I'll go with Taeyang," said Daniel.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMdArEArWo
"And I go with Seungri," said Mike.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPUjuKLdih0
"That leaves Daesung and I," said TOP.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJlfr4ZX8r
"Great, let's go," I said and we all walked out of the room.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEfIjK8u3TU
As soon as we left the 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYECpJO3lI9
YG building, we split up in the parking lot. Luckily, Collins had 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUo8q0XLPr3
already left. Christine and I went with G-Dragon in his car. It was 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6ksduRO8U
important that I had to talk to G-Dragon concerning Zoey.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvqFpR4X7EI
We soon arrived at the hotel and Christine got out of the car. I gave her my phone for it to be charged.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡViwDYXUT8c
"Call us if anything good happens," I said I looked at Christine through the window.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUlUkDgnN2B
"And what if something bad happens?" Christine asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxnSca1Vh0
"Like Collins? You can handle it," I said as I gave her a smile. Christine winked and wished us luck.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkGdlyuBJdy
G-Dragon drove away and 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe61fPaPG6I
we first went to the park where he came with Zoey after lunch. I just 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4GuM6WGmT5
hope she didn't go that far and that she was okay.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdp2H7Ad0PB
"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.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg0D8V3pRV1
"What?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNjNh6qGu6
"Did you two argue?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKLD417iVe
"No, we didn't," said G-Dragon as he went around me and started walking towards the park.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUfpLV0zxNe
I quickly turned and followed him. When I caught up with him, I stood in front of him to stop him.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZefp7A1v3
"Are you telling me the truth?" I asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiWdNXg0WDS
"Do you think I am lying?" G-Dragon asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8H6eQWAC0O
"I think so." I said with my arms folded.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2sv3NPHWxb
"You're crazy," said G-Dragon as he walked around me again.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtHSR35UxCx
I huffed. He wasn't going to budge. I had to try something to get the truth out of him.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01e5bC4JJO
With quick strides, I 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVWS2dO0zXr
caught up with him again. This time I started to walk backwards so that I981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1oPgOjfUi
could look at him directly in his face.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1pRC3cS1qR
"What are you doing?" G-Dragon asked as he looked at me, puzzled.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZP6qXSagX
"I want you to tell me the truth."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXHypNeuPIh
"You're stressing yourself out by walking backwards."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnleuU0VA7R
"Do I care?" I raised an eyebrow at him. "I know you're hiding something from me."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIY9AEreCWa
G-Dragon chuckled and 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWk4tzpliC
that almost made me smile. "Stop playing detective, my little kitty. As 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7pNCzAl61a
much as it suits you, you're going to trip over and fall."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVOMT3LkpN
"Then you have to stop me from walking backwards by answering my question."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUF84CTmUie
"This is one silly method of interrogation if you ask me."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmeeYs4CZbz
"I can tell you're not telling me something. Zoey can't just leave like that without someone upsetting her."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCdmLVlyDZ
"And how do you know?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlzflhKDUmr
"I'm her best friend. 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMCRsIxpaw
And plus, whenever someone gets her really upset, she runs off without 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAGsTq6tQSk
telling anyone. She always wants be alone to think."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyCFilgVLF
"I hope she doesn't think of committing suicide."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEbxLkFb1nD
"Zoey can't end her 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKeM0UprRBT
life. Well, she hasn't tried to anyway. She's leaving the dream right 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmEDlrQwWzv
now and ending her life this early, isn't going to sound right. Unless 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfx2jrDQOW6
you did something."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWusdtuUQ4I
"Me?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9joUl3nUCw
"Da! Yes, you!"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefF42Hn4jV
"What could I possibly have done for Zoey to try and commit suicide?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSNarAo467f
"Don't talk about suicide like that." I hit him on the arm.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Qq4tM4Z6w
"Ouch!" G-Dragon stopped and held his arm. "That hurts!"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPvhYsIcAFj
"Well, you deserve it. Now tell me the truth." I put my hands on my hips.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBFcSJm7aB
"I'm telling you, Zoey and I didn't argue."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cw2JQKod7
G-Dragon looked me in the eye and he seemed really convincing.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxCVlVBXG0w
"Okay. I believe you," I said. "But you must have said something that upset her."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvi2r6blkO2
"I can't really remember what I had said to her. Maybe she just left on her own."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡugsm1V8Ke4
"And with her phone off, that's a bit strange, don't you think?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡceinbjb5rA
"When we find her we will ask why she ran off."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx4k0cpnToB
"Ya. Sure."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMhED501Oi1
"Now, will you please 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdmGetpAh8
stop walking backwards? I don't want you to trip and save you from 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvFpjrt6UVs
falling. That will spark rumours again like it did during the 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYOH3fzV3o
interview."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7OEgoO5pLt
I didn't say anything, 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzKyh2A9hqv
so I just nodded my head and faced forward. We went further into the 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Qktq4mvbx
park and as we looked around for Zoey, we sparked some attention from 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKouYKlZdyv
our darling fans. We signed a few autographs and took a few pictures and981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgfyQ26pKWT
went on with our search. We even asked some fans if they had seen Zoey,981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIF157ATPH4
but nothing.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4Yl4HlMZN
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.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUJPhULPJ2p
"Are you tired already?" G-Dragon asked as he looked down on me.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZ6CCzedvc
"I'm not," I said as I 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmUtLJecoc
removed my slippers and felt comfortable with my bare feet on the grass.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡosFZ0ZsDM6
"I'm trying to figure out where Zoey could be."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCcLlUG8X3w
G-Dragon sat down beside981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2oTqITTZJe
me and the two of us were silent, looking at the pond. Laughter filled 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5PVJSMrMQ
my ears as I saw a group of kids playing from across the pond. Some 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIz0uRwzZ9V
couples also sat on the grass close to the pond. It was such a beautiful981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7sq9KFv1u
day and sitting by the pond felt so relieving.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xZwTIH0lg
"Have you figured something yet?" G-Dragon asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2S6jtyjn6I
I frowned and looked at him. "No, why do you ask?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoaVqgtJRKz
"You seem to be smiling to yourself," said G-Dragon as he looked at me.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc06JAr4mYJ
"No, I'm actually enjoying what I'm experiencing right now."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2ScIoSwIt
"You love nature, don't you?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBWTXTlfQFj
I closed my eyes, still smiling. "Ya. I really do."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHjFrnWf4c
At that moment, I was so981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkpYVjnQgw3
caught in the little world inside my head. For a moment, I forgot about981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxPuOi2JTVq
everything. About looking for Zoey, being famous, and the whole world 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlSXbOlTdB
with everyone and everything in it. It's like they never existed because981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxc2bnelvv
even the noise around me seemed non existent.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDaVmDBRin
Then I felt something 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBuCZwer9I3
brush against my hand like a soft feather. The touch brought me back to 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1NChrlknY
reality and I quickly opened my eyes. I looked beside me and G-Dragon 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLKHx8c2SaE
was staring at me.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7vFYv9SMAj
"What?" I asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvuVQ5sO2R
"Has anyone ever told you how beautiful you are?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbaLD6Zhphe
I blushed all of the 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv7lT932xjb
sudden and I looked down. His hand covered mine and for a moment I 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimer3BT7fS
wanted to pull away. But then again, I couldn't explain how I felt with 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5DjXfau6rm
his hand on mine. I felt this weird comfort.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoFueXbvdYs
I would have said yes to981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMyZpZ8aeH
his question, but no words came out. This wasn't right. As much as I 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh620vRczVs
wanted him close to me, I knew I would end up getting hurt because we 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEGlXtjV3C5
were never meant to be.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0p4bYwyZA
"Umm," I pulled my hand away and put it closer to my body. "Please don't say that GD."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd92DZ44NBe
"Why?" He asked softly.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMp87ducKJ7
"Because this isn't right at all and you know it."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1iilD1gAg
"What do you mean?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7QUqaLgD3T
"You know that I ready know about Zoey and you. You guys are more like a couple."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55gxszdYdt
"So?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZm4CLg6cJd
"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."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh8npBTHrJe
"Looks like you figured out that I don't really like Zoey as such as I like you."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJwPDtg3ouO
I didn't say anything as I continued to figure out what to say next.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6QmTO3MQm9
"Then why are you leading Zoey on? She doesn't deserve this, you know?" I asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQLj6o4EPW
"I know."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqH89qRfls
"Then why are you doing this?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLLNZ6e3pUj
G-Dragon looked at me like he never had before. He soon looked away and sighed.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY6cVRrwRpr
"I'm doing this because of you, Sam. But even if I do so, I still can't get you out of my head."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzyNKsTVXXN
I also looked the other way, trying to act like those words hadn't affected me. But they did and they did so badly.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvXRFebUOp3
"You should find another981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzpSNVHRBtM
way to do so, GD." I turned to look back at him and he faced me. "But 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡedbZEHDfrd
not with Zoey. I don't want her getting hurt because of the both of us. I981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSnMcREXw5Y
will never forgive myself."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfeQHyABGiy
G-Dragon nodded his head. "I'll do so."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfRjB7r97XD
I wanted to smile but I 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0gkxQGKNpO
couldn't bring myself to do it. I hoped he kept his word and maybe with 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgFa9ylKEzq
this little talk we've had, we would be friends again and stop acting 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4PP6em5FE4
like we had beef with each other.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4qSMQzoEtU
Just as I was about to 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLWwO347nN
ask him why he had been giving me the attitude lately and if it had 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPyht7D4dGP
anything to do with his jealousy, his phone rang. He quickly removed it 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaC14qkm2O0
from his pocket and answered it.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMmflKw47WW
"Hello? Christine?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRIOTAhyZGv
I was now attentive. Had she found Zoey? I wished I could have talked to her myself.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1UveKNDyqu
"Okay, we will be right there. Inform the others as well."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn0Eg3HpyMC
"What happened?" I asked after he cut the call.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2XbAFKwLpw
"Christine called to tell me that she knows where Zoey is."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKYhVhpXoj
"Where is she?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOFTvuingq
"She is at a famous café. I know where it is."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPnqF7jZB27
"But how did Christine know where Zoey is?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLR2mubejFD
"Zoey's phone went back on and she texted where she was. And she is not alone."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGgEjfl6S91
"Who is she with?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj6uAr1Y0OP
"We're about to find out. Let's go."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPxQoAlCuO
G-Dragon got up from the981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGPxxacFedY
ground and he held out his hand to me. I took it and he pulled me up 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7zPv16hTy
from the ground. We left the park together, heading towards his car.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeAVfFT9miu
When we got in his car, 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKlTL1prWcV
we drove through the city and we arrived at this small fancy café. We 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGB95LaTiSK
parked across the street and before we could get out of the car, I 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVnsT0WzIEP
looked across towards the café.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQpvNEPis3H
"Can you see, Zoey?" G-Dragon asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvopE0fLkGb
Through the huge window,981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfeOOYanCPL
I could see what was going on inside. Looked like a lot of people 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uT8mDKDqV
enjoyed coming over to the café. The place was parked for an ordinary 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpIiCf7jSYW
day in the afternoon.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR8FJROrVHZ
I searched for Zoey, but981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAZMRJA8TxH
I couldn't see her. It was then that I saw Zoey at the far corner of 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj01oq454yo
the café. She was facing the window side and I saw her with someone. 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYzzrMavy6A
Sitting opposite her was a man in a fancy looking black suit. From afar,981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQ6GvwowWR
I could tell his suit was expensive and I couldn't see his face.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ90SE3yQ41f
"I see her," I said. "And she is definitely with someone."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjiCYlVpeDT
"Who is it?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo64o5PzZbk
"I don't know. By the look of his suit, he seems like a business man or one rich tycoon."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjP01ZQvKEu
"Seriously?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4cldXkLtm0
"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?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy83c9F5msX
G-Dragon looked towards the windshield, avoiding my gaze. "No, I'm not. I'm just wondering who it was, that's all."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQK09tRV7Lp
I rolled my eyes and 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPRySWcuNLf
said nothing more. I went back to looking at the café and focused on 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6RXit5S130
Zoey. I decided to read her body language and see if she was okay. She 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhiGv4cptFl
looked like she was enjoying herself, chatting with this stranger.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSft7kf6O2H
She was sipping her cup 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5B3TVx8czr
of coffee and she went back to smiling at the stranger. Something was a 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIlh7Pc9mkq
bit off and I shifted on my seat to see if I was seeing right.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpx8P6d2P7i
"Hey, is something wrong?" G-Dragon asked, noticing my tension.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvm4G00WXnk
"Ya."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ92za11JAw4
G-Dragon also turned on his seat and looked through the window.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgbK5G4X4RS
Zoey's smile made me 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡedbPWDZZQf
wonder what was going on. She was smiling and chatting but she looked a 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdf2UZKptUP
little nervous. Usually when she is with a guy, she was always the one 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaC4qJnpr9c
who was never scared of leading the conversation and became pretty981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUc3YT9pcNg
comfortable with the person. Unless the guy was creepy enough to be a serial killer.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPLQaiUKD6f
I felt a threat coming 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfk7lHRbIeK
up. Was this guy dangerous? Zoey had a nervous smile on her face and if I981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJgsJzv62MZ
was not mistaken, I think I noticed her fingers tap frantically on the 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBEW0VQ4cv6
table. She did that whenever she was nervous. I had to know what was 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5nc4W2C1h
going on in there.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSKDeWF5eLK
"Let's go," I said as I turned to look at G-Dragon. "I'm not liking this."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHlUs8Nrgt
"Thank you," said G-Dragon, looking relieved. "I had a bad feeling about this guy."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiTpN3tgLG1
"Ya, right," I said as I grabbed the handle of the door, opened it and stepped out.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7oX86Lxp5
Just as G-Dragon came 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIV4nzSGmm1
out of the car, three cars appeared off the main road and came to park 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUsjYNrBSC
in the parking space behind G-Dragon's car. The others had arrived.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDd2gjqn2Ij
"Christine told us to meet you here," said Taeyang as he and Mike came out of his car.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMw5xmR47KQ
"Zoey's in the café," I said as I pointed across the road.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqOyUmEGtpk
"Alright, let's go," said Seungri.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHeitlkAtj
When I looked back at the café window, I noticed that Zoey was all alone on her table. That was odd. Where was he?981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnKlNOi6MNE
"Oh, no, no, no," I said staring wide eyed inside the café.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5OPS3WYe7M
"What is it, Sam?" Daesung asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF8tjqp0iw6
I didn't answer him as I981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvU8Gew0mW
quickly dashed across the road without even checking for any cars. I 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41hqod6k8G
could hear the others behind call out to me to be careful. I luckily 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwOs0QfGqP
managed to reach the café without getting hit.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTc60L5z484
When I got to the café, a981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5S5VRackXP
few people came out through the door. None of them matched the person 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4lUSAeF2FV
who was in the café with Zoey. I quickly went in and I found Zoey still 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcH4C5m5B7A
sitting in the corner. I rushed over to her that my presence scared her.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFF4PNak9bf
"Sam! You scared me to death!" Zoey held her chest as she breathed in and out so heavily, trying to calm down.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0zlanVyXyZ
"Where did you go?" I asked, taking the seat the stranger had been sitting on earlier.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEuU6Oh1P5S
"Oh, I...um.." Zoey played with her fingers.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8anMyDuFK
"Don't you dare try to 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF5cDSYSTJh
lie to me, Zoey," I threatened. "You went with GD for lunch and the two 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQ7vrKCue2
of you went to the park. When GD went to get ice cream, you had 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5XAyIfw8cP
disappeared. And the next thing we know, you're here."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9BaNz6nJL
"Christine told you where I was?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkX5Bb1pebg
"Of course she had to. We were worried sick."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZrKn4BoIay
I heard the bell of the 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkAmBWcbDWf
café ring and I knew the others had arrived. They soon came over by the 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsRajlRVDrg
table. Only Taeyang, G-Dragon and Daniel were the ones who came in.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4ewLi69a2
"Zoey where have you been?" Daniel asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrxZI1D9oeZ
"And who was that guy you were with, huh?" G-Dragon asked, looking down at Zoey with a frown on his face.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS3nXXeaOEX
"Awww, are you jealous, my G-Dragon?" Zoey smiled at him.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg7ms3kOZ23
"Stop taking all this 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlq52MKOXic
like a joke, Zoey. I saw the way you were behaving with him. You weren't981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvb8Tddd4s
yourself when I saw you from across the street," I said.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0TEz2fgVtE
The smile on Zoey's face981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJcUbowcEiJ
disappeared in an instant. Good. Maybe now she would take us seriously.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1PEXyevGol
Her safety was way more important than she could ever imagine. If 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUC0CtGkasj
anything had happened to her, a lot of us here would never forgive 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCKrpvkXlJw
ourselves.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZatvNyVFi
"Can we please get out of here?" Taeyang suggested. "This isn't the place to discuss this."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6rOjp9n5Fh
"You're right," I said 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCarmKCwxrX
as I looked around the café and many heads were turning our way. I hated981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxewghThZ1e
attracting so much attention sometimes.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZAMcpQJb2
The others had started 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMVDgnO6SH
to leave and Zoey and I both stood up from the table. I noticed the 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrycpej0sz6
teacup the stranger had used and my mind still couldn't stop thinking 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ4MS86lHLN
about who he was.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpLi54bhy3z
After we left the café, 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99fK3tcWrc
we went back across the road where the vehicles were parked. Daesung, 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHD5imkHFy
TOP, Mike and Daesung stood waiting for us.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLhFD4WJV2
"Thank goodness, you're alright, Zoey," said Daesung.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzey2rvC4bs
"Ya, thank goodness you weren't lost," said Mike. "We wondered if we would find you in a ditch or something."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCBIZwVH5FO
Zoey frowned at Mike and all he could do was smile back at her mischievously.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqo1ReWjN6j
"Let's all go back to the hotel, shall we?" I suggested. "Zoey can tell us everything from there."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2XoOc0C5p
Zoey and I went in 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZq2rjQQu0F
G-Dragon's car making sure I sat in the backseat. The others got in the 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcm9bXNpLAS
other cars and we drove off, G-Dragon's car leading the way.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN1VgDfj3Au
We were all back in the 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBESV41aE3Z
hotel on our floor. Luckily, Collins wasn't around. I was relieved. Now I981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlO9crVYcl7
could vent out all my anger on Zoey.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQaP8N0kpQv
We gathered ourselves in981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0B3TOQhljp
the lounge. The others sat on the couch and made themselves 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAzurwrb24l
comfortable. Zoey and I were left standing and I looked at her, with my 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWnBIrZgKO
hands on my hips.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡogJRVLt4OR
"Okay, let's start with why you disappeared?" I asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQCMxqyrdNs
"No, don't ask that," said G-Dragon. "Ask who she was with first."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8u7fZVetL
"I'm the one asking the questions." I turned to face G-Dragon. "I want to know what made her go like that."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4E2vqwe4sb
"Fine, I tell you," said981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡercTOHWp6j
Zoey raising her hand to calm me down. "G-Dragon went over to get some 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0QxN4hX2f
ice cream when a person came up to me. Said he was my biggest fan."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8jETb7QhN
"Don't tell me you fell for the person's good looks like always," said Christine shaking her head.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP4E77ldPk3
"You know handsome men are my weakness," said Zoey. "Sorry G-Dragon."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnd1auMW8G2
"No, I don't mind," said981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFFXr8H6Tq
G-Dragon, shaking his head. I looked at him again and I was surprised 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdAkVlCyLc
with the look on his face that he really didn't mind at all.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWRP4xM9XR
"So, he said he is your biggest fan and then what?" Taeyang asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVkqgwpOkA
"He offered that the two of us go out for some coffee," said Zoey. "That's how I left."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBLymuBFQi
"Now that makes no sense or maybe you have no sense, Zoey," said Seungri.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJcvt0IwugJ
"Huh?" Zoey looked at Seungri, looking embarrassed.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSllFKh9lWh
"As much as that sounds 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLsDXygtK7X
totally embarrassing, Seungri is right," said Christine. "What you said 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXShfZHfxQ4
doesn't make sense at all. How could you go out for coffee with someone 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVutqaSx1p0
you claims to be your fan without taking G-Dragon along with you?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZAjvJ6N8gW
I started to tap my foot981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡExRMj24QUH
and looked at Zoey, ready to breathe out fire if necessary. Christine 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK1gWwZwulK
was right and surprisingly, Seungri too. She wasn't telling us the 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb35cboiuND
truth.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVCndJscIWR
"Come on, Zoey, tell us 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDDNzh1UVc
what really happened," I said. "You couldn't leave without GD. And you 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW4AM0XxfeY
had your phone turned off. All I know about the person you were with is 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMDKoSS3T9
that he was wearing an expensive black suit."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsv6Hr9Rsux
"Okay, do you really want to know the truth?" Zoey asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtHMvjG1fe
"Yes!" everyone replied at the same time, that almost made Zoey jump in fright.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYs4EO7AOvg
"Okay, okay, eish," said981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfPCtdLM2Ix
Zoey. "You scared the hell out of me. The truth is, I went with my fan 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDpcvEeXL4
because he insisted that I go with him and not tell anyone about it."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5kdPvjIap
"Huh?" TOP looked confused.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQCRHeP8mG2
"What fan lays out that kind of condition?" Mike asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXwXQTCJDlH
"Someone who was ready to take advantage of Zoey," I answered.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiqMhIK8Sev
"If he did, you guys still wouldn't have found me," said Zoey.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGiWPK8w5ZI
"If he did, you wouldn't have been looking so nervous in the café."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBtFu2DatQL
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.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdercirbBC
"Then what were you two talking about?" I asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5wt6g9jRu
"Just stuff," said Zoey, avoiding my eyes. "About me and my celebrity life."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡheNXItNfQO
"You're sure?" I asked. "Didn't he talk about himself?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAP1QjRE1J
"Ya, totally." Zoey nodded her head. He never said anything about himself. Not even his name."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhgUdngr63R
"Then why did you look so nervous in the café?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPlRhNJUde
"He was asking some personal questions I didn't like."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5UXCLsI0x4
"Are you sure?" Daniel 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLdwSQDY51
asked. "When someone asks you a personal question, you either snap back 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhF67O0B49u
at them or walk away. Whether it's an annoying reporter, any of your 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJwETYZ6z8V
haters or even us."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqtesygQrS2
Daniel was right. Zoey 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vHRHGo2Bb
would have stood and walked away from the stranger but she didn't. I 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8G5FRP4sL1
wondered what question he might have asked her. That's if Zoey was 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvdrLR9oYD
telling the truth.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjEbo6g9J78
"I didn't want to look so mean in front of him," said Zoey. "He seemed like a very nice guy."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKeZwvupHri
"A very nice guy that 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYorKcKbEip
made you run off with him, made you switch off your phone and made you 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwCQhxR0wU5
so uncomfortable," said G-Dragon, looking really irritated.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMXSPoznTJ
"Come on," said Zoey. "He wasn't that bad, seriously."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnWQH32J9Nn
I didn't want to 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXtgtYyZNiK
pressurise Zoey with more questions. Right now, she was getting away 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡabEiQk6ktA
with it. If she was hiding something, I would find out sooner or later.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJU9YUcKhtT
"Okay," I said. "We're just glad you're fine."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmMjZhpzn7N
"And not dead," said 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡApRghKkyD7
Mike with a smirk. Seungri and Christine who sat on either side of him, 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Px6OFe8NF
both gave him the elbow in the side and he howled in pain.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJUzVF5lBiq
"I'll pretend I never heard that," said Zoey.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYzeWojVBVT
"And you better get 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJeKoD0m4v
ready for Collins," I said giving Zoey a smirk of my own. "We told him 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfX908fSlPx
you had a bad tummy ache and that's why you weren't at the studio."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyaKbmh3vLT
"Seriously?" Zoey gave me an angry stare. "Couldn't you have told him a better lie?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpE73zyRoN
"That you were missing? Fat chance. You've already put some of us into enough trouble for one day."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJsb4tYBpS
"Alright. Sorry. I won't do that again."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHH0mAsd1S4
I rolled my eyes, while shaking my head and went over to the dining table. Something told me it wouldn't be the last.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1w5QUHdFHN
"Well, now that you're found," said Daesung, as he stood up. "Some of us better get going."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡut457TojpU
"Sorry for putting you guys into so much trouble," said Zoey.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9BX6Or5Tmb
"As long as you're fine and Collins isn't going to kill us, it's okay," said Taeyang with a smile.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ9VVtB23Ao
"I'll be leaving too," said Seungri and he gave Zoey a hug and he walked over to hug me as well.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFB1actoc5U
"Alright, see you tomorrow," I said.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazgc09v3HH
One by one the BigBang 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtesi0FMnAS
members started to leave, saying bye to each other. G-Dragon stayed 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡitznCh9hBs
behind with Zoey so that they could talk a little. Giving them privacy, 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhzrgipDmwj
Christine, my brothers and I left for our rooms.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCCrWcJQvsA
When I went in my room, I981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEOgk7VAwhS
went for my phone that was still charging on my bed. The phone was 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ92bs566123
still off and I decided to switch it on. It was almost full.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEZxwy1dW3e
There was a knock on the door and I called out to the person to come in. Christine entered.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvGKxByRiRJ
"Hey, can we talk?" Christine asked as she closed the door behind her.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcHztDxqIZB
"About what?" I turned to look at her.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1dp6Iwua2
"Do you really believe what Zoey told us?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKlJlu6POo
"No, I don't." I sat on the bed.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6J5g22r6n
"Looks like I'm not the only one," said Christine as she came to sit on Zoey's bed, facing me.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jPiqF9paQ
"I wonder why she isn't telling us the truth."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipN4SZpflK
"Did you see the man's face?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr00oN1hALJ
"No. All I could say is that he wore a fancy and expensive suit."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtibNUsqk7
"I wonder who he is. Maybe he is some rich tycoon or something."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKwlauVVgKX
"That's what I thought too." I gave Christine a smile.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHchYqdYZgp
"I bet he is good 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVTHWNQCEw
looking too. I still wonder why Zoey left like that without telling 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJCPLgZ7nM
anyone. Do you think she really did all that just because the stranger 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5AaSieegf
told her to?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZzLb9algF
"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?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0RneF32mVT
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."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmh31OHJFZV
"You said so yourself, Christine. There is no other explanation. He might have blackmailed her or something."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu2wxFMe7TR
"Okay, but blackmailed her with what?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXRpaeMlCCe
"That we have to find out."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH9FovN1iNu
I was just about to grab my phone and check out if I had any messages when Zoey came in the room.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKkp6aJQOuI
"Oh. Has GD left already?" Christine asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFWF2r7i7W
"Ya. He left," Zoey replied. I heard a bit of sadness in her voice.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNut6BOQbac
"Are you okay? You don't look alright," I said.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFVGmsATc2a
"I'm fine. G-Dragon and I talked about something serious."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTVfCzmAgU
Oh my. Had he told her 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7VvKAqnPB
about what we had discussed earlier at the park? As much as I knew it 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkfSx1w6KCW
was going to hurt Zoey, it was for the best. Besides, she was going to 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXbjjdNdQ0
find someone way better than G-Dragon. Hopefully, even me.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGv7d9vOtyi
"What did you talk about?" I asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDziaPdNTo2
"He was just pissed that981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdTnQb6TpS
I left like that," Zoey answered. "He thought maybe he said something 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYLFpV70TUO
that might have upset me or something."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡptnlnJPoF2
"Oh." That wasn't what I was expecting. "Well, I had asked him earlier if he had said something that might have upset you."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xLMrIg58O
"But he didn't."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRGEocZqJP
"I see why Sam asked," 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvFckDJ2nkN
said Christine. "When someone gets you so upset, you run away. You've 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXB1BxQJIaA
done that many times before back home during our school days, you know?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4b356mG2Y
"Ya I know. Forget about it." Zoey waved her hand in annoyance. "What's happened has happened."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7tj6mDhUG
And I hope it will never981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDHXCzEmJPR
happen again, but this guy in the suit still worried me. Until I know 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCK8Hy7mLT2
who he is, I wasn't going to pretend that the worst has passed when it 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijaogHHu4I
was yet to come at any moment.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbvvBPIxRsE
The next thing I knew, the door to our room flew open and Lee walked in.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjZDpXyidLA
"Lee!" the three of us exclaimed in excitement.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ElRbx9efY
"Wow! Did you guys miss me?" Lee asked with a smile on her face.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ZXBFXqU2L
"Ya, we did," said Zoey, putting her arm over Lee's shoulders.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8r9fmxNSJ
"Well, I missed you too," said Lee. "So, what happened today? I heard you never finished up on the song."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNSsXiVdQZ
Christine, Zoey and I 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzFfx4D6AwR
shook our heads and talked randomly at the same time, saying nothing 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLJCcFixZ6
really happened. Lee knew something was up and even if it could clearly 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWAk6poNdv
show on her face, she didn't push us. She just smiled.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1gpnBDoFhn
"Well, you'll tell me later," said Lee. "Collins and I were just....."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrO5Bul6X5
"Collins is here!" Zoey's face went white like a sheet.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5pjjKflWfd
"Yes, he is," said Lee 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKhK5gIl83
with a wicked smile. "Now if you don't want to get into trouble, I 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfyD5rPGwAV
suggest you go on your bed and cry out that you still aren't feeling 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡui9ppH1QiC
well."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP9CnGMSvJ6
Christine and I almost burst out laughing. Zoey frowned.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1sfT6EHBS
"Ha, ha, very funny," said Zoey as she went over to her bed and sat down.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡra5qRC2yYR
"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."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsqlGSIGmAC
"Us?" I asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZE7pmc65N3
"Ya, the letter on the package was directed to The Toxins. It's with Collins in the lounge."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNkTDFBQGA4
Christine and I rushed 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhN3Ns5H5P
out of the room leaving Zoey with Lee. She had to pretend she was still 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwsJSKw6B4w
not feeling well. We found Collins in the lounge with the package in his981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMFmykbwaLY
hand.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeAxO0dKao1
"Hey, Collins," I said. "What's that?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5Z2A3pW3J
"This came in for you guys," said Collins. "And with a letter too."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYyXUwz28Bk
"Did I hear there is something for us?" Daniel asked as he and Mike came in the lounge.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvTspvdDX5h
"Ya. Here you go." Collins gave me the package.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDDxhhP1g5
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.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYbtW395pI
I took the letter and 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPHFLjl3DJ
gave the package for Christine to hold and opened the envelope to remove981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqW4YNX6kWs
a letter. I unfolded the letter and I read it out loud:981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9XUnaSgV36
"Hope you're all okay. Just wanted to say I'm your biggest fan. With lots of love."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkn9LY75yL
"That's it?" Mike asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlxyIgFDJb4
"Ya, that's pretty much it," I said, looking behind the letter but there was nothing. "No name at all."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYHPXntbQ9A
"Did you see anyone who sent this?" Daniel asked Collins.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjOsQJDuyuQ
"All that the 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm556N5PlFO
receptionist told us was that some young man in a suit gave it to her 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2SlMRviLu
and she should give either you guys or us when we came by the lobby."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDIptjSOjm
My eyes went wide and my981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4zzyXVUeb
heart pace quickened. Did Collins just say a young man in a suit? Maybe981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAcPTJxiON3
I heard wrong and needed some clarification.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43l3hmBBIa
"A young man in a suit?" Mike asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8r6s2koN2B
"Ya. Do you perhaps know him?" Collins asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYpjmAhHUyG
"Huh, no," said Christine, shaking her head.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9LmVTDYIty
"Oh. For a moment there, you guys looked a little frightened," said Collins. "I thought you might know him."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgrIkfry8Y
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?981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi44zKnMXlf
"Open it, Christine," said Daniel.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8lKxPQuE4l
Christine threw Daniel 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXnNi5rIm5E
an angry glance. She obviously didn't want to open it and I knew what 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhkY9ZEj8Jz
she was thinking. What if there was a bomb inside? Or maybe something to981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoDCeUy1qya
threaten or blackmail us? You could only think of the worst from a 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEfeuPqsTmz
person you barely even knew.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvUpBr6cFLU
"Let me," I said as I took the package from Christine and I sat down on the couch with the package on my lap.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlpQ27Biwp
Collins was watching us for a second and then left the lounge. I sighed in relief and so did the others.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5h0CbcPDP7
"I thought he would never leave," Mike whispered after we heard the door to Collins' room open and close.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLuqmpsvjNN
"Can you check if he is really in his room?" I asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3jAHnkrNTr
Mike went in the hall and came back seconds later. "He is in the room."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZcbJ2upau
"I'm really nervous," said Christine. "What is in there?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTxwc6ewrg
"I don't know," said Daniel. "I hope it is nothing that could kill us."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkMLypTzaX
Mike hit Daniel at the back of his head and Daniel whined in pain.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG86uDhqfLM
"Don't say that," said Mike. "I don't want to die soon."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37CjNmFwbk
"Guys, calm down," I said. "Let's just open this thing and see what's in it."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1yyZdKVBkv
"Okay, but take your 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCtfsn7RKdG
time," said Christine. "If there is a bomb in there, I want to say my 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyfWzbVDJBg
last prayers before I leave this earth."981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo8iSy0dCGO
I rolled my eyes but I 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMD32H7JJh
was as scared as the rest of them. If we were to make out of this alive,981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzobT94g919
I was going to kill Zoey myself for dragging us into this mess.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXoFP7nf8H
I started to unwrap the package. It was a white box.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemfIIsKEjZ
The other three couldn't981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5efeYdctX
stop staring at the box and I needed to end this paranoia once and for 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAu4vsVJCzW
all. I quickly removed the lid without thinking that there might be 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzgFWEeDTR
something dangerous in the box. The others even covered their faces. But981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ619k4wWNDJ
nothing happened.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqm6XmEWtB
"What the....?" I looked in the box and what I saw, shocked me completely.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwNzPqkR5GA
"What is it?" Christine asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrYQ9qZ3DXe
I looked up at the 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkemY0BLezA
others and they bended over to see what was in the box. Their jaws 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUt05cRGmVx
dropped almost at the same time and we looked at each other.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJw5vYPYFOV
"This is just ridiculous," I said as I shook my head.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs6LWvYuFeZ
Christine, Mike and Daniel suddenly burst out laughing.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRoqCkxMaHb
Zoey and Lee came rushing into the lounge.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3IO3yeyJu
"Hey? What's going on?" Zoey asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcA9jeeNSGz
No one answered. I was too speechless to say anything and the rest were still laughing.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv7U2egF4pO
"What is in the package, Sam?" Lee asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk0ISaFcfbj
I soon removed a little cute brown teddy bear and held it up for Zoey and Lee to see.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtr6EWYKUQi
"Huh? You're laughing all because of a teddy bear?" Zoey looked at the others, wondering if they were okay in the head.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYCzcAurqVm
"Oh, my goodness, Zoey," said Christine trying to catch her breath with tears in her eyes. "Can't you see it?"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOu5ali1uBf
"See what?" Zoey and Lee asked the same time.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpbSMGvB9kK
"The...the...suit!" Mike laughed even more, pointing at the teddy bear.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOV7WvkXbOK
It was then that Zoey 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXplzmU0nu
looked at the bear in my hand and recognised that the tiny teddy bear 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnV1SYsmsU
wore a tiny black suit with a tiny black tie. Zoey looked like she was 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnzZ5LlsT5
about to get sick. Looked like she already figured out it was the981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJ03HPgnux
stranger who she was with today that sent it.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9i6ptKzBXv
"Guys, what am I missing here?" Lee asked.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEZIYjg8hg
"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.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXd405ZQOlR
The other three continued to laugh when they saw Zoey take the bear. Lee looked as confused as ever.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhaqWhLDpqs
"And here I thought it was a bomb," said Daniel, wiping away the tears in his eyes.981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHsnnPbIaWY
"Ya. But it just turned out to be a bear in a suit," said Christine. "A harmless bear!"981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0RkujlUDcL
This time, they laughed 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQj4yjWgTW
even louder and I couldn't help but start laughing too. A minute ago, we981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5OwxPitwm
had feared for our lives and it was for no good reason. I saw the 981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPT5i9qJAKd
reason to laugh along as well. Who knows what the future might hold? You981Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegwJLDNnkD
