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.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcR0wQwHh4J
I had never been this 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3iwdsWXE5
late in my entire life. Not even when I had my own personal 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnOOAe1iVId
appointments. The others would be wondering why I was so late. And 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgPRsyWOZ54
trying to explain the reason why, would have them blown away.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWSHRyRaIL
"Sam, are you still there?" Zoey called out to me from our room.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4NJGhRoxUM
I didn't want to answer. I was quite irritated. But if I didn't, she would start to freak out.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ISvbnN6Ja
"Sam!"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSCMSKGqsdS
I rolled my eyes. "I'm still here, Zoey," I answered.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfnFzWHD77E
Zoey came out of the 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJW08JX5I0
room and came to the lounge where I was seated waiting for her. I was on1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDuAF8HQsW
the couch and I looked at her, then back at my watch.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZUz4rMJp6
"Did you find what you're looking for?" I asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIOrxfJaoZh
"No, I haven't," said Zoey.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxs7YHqNuM
"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."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnKA5MajdtA
"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.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡelgtgHHyeH
"Zoey, it's just a stud and you have plenty of those like it in your jewellery box."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcmglUybSyt
"But those are my favourite studs," said Zoey. "You know they are diamond, right?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9QyJZqags
"I know because I bought you those studs for your birthday a year ago."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtiQ0DlhqNx
"Oh. Ya, I know." Zoey had a look on her face that told me she forgot about that.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3uIGHKIHvO
I ignored her and said, 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnrCfLSLy0J
"just get another pair of studs or don't put on any at all. For my sake.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcYMNeNOlDG
And Collins' too. We were supposed to be at the studio at 10."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2KW1w69w7
"What time is it?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZM9FEZEPW
"10:35."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKvSHQZVSYU
"Wow, time really passes by."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpfwKVmKIE
"When it comes to you, it does. Come on, let's go."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPIsEHaY7Z
"Let me go get my phone."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXSbNtYFVk
Zoey rushed back to the 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtc3FLSWtYv
room and I hoped she wasn't going to get back to looking for her missing1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4sp4ktERvm
stud. She sometimes did the opposite of what she had to do. But anyway,1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡexLgSw77Dp
that was Zoey.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqzvw5IHUQ
I soon received a 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlbYOCBUWsu
message from Collins threatening me to get to the studio as soon as 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamsgnudvPl
possible. In no less than five minutes. I moaned. He knew we couldn't 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtANfCTmx0
get there in five minutes. That's if we were superheros.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBhTSewWiK
"Zoey, come on, we better go!"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBLOahBgs0M
"I'm coming."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdYXwOdqNC
I started heading 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLRbUxiMvaU
towards the elevator and my phone beeped again. Another message. 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfywkt00wH3
Hopefully it wasn't Collins again telling us he would hang us to death 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGqBBoiwNH
if we didn't make it in time. But I was surprised to see an unknown 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoTNqBYC5Xn
number. A number coming from another country.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHW2w0qgPy5
"Oh, who is this?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg1Lp3k8vj1
Before I could open the message icon, Zoey came rushing from behind and bumped into my back. That almost made me drop my phone.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4bmKeEsWv
"My goodness, Zoey!" I said as I looked at her. "You should look where you're going. I almost dropped my phone."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHG5QDFjLVs
"Sorry," said Zoey as she also looked at me.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhchVGvnxq
"Come on, we're already late."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5GFzfYlr2c
We went into the 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5U93P1ZFQG
elevator and I put my phone away in my jeans jacket pocket. A black 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqwUJ82FKnU
Chevrolet SUV was waiting for us outside. The others had already left 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KLDJgysYr
for the studio and I had stayed behind because of Zoey's missing stud.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0O1IeP15R
When we got to YG, 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAGLf2rvTJg
Collins stood there by the entrance, obviously waiting for us. He looked1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68WINb2spb
like an angry father ready to scold at his kids for coming home late.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQ9c9KgeK4
"Don't tell me all this is your doing, Zoey," said Collins as we approached him.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEeHbnLQyBD
"No, no, it's not," said Zoey as she shook her head.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkeMkyalbm
"Says the person who isn't wearing her studs today."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrfkntvxpQw
Zoey held her earlobes 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNrrI61dQUx
and looked at me with a surprised look on her face. I shrugged. I had to1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFShOrV2Mi
tell Collins why we delayed over the phone. At least he believed me, 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrHHGYYZ1W4
knowing that he already knew what was Zoey was like.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfMvOSNUAU
"Come on, the others are waiting and they didn't want to start without you," said Collins.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6eYM7EPB3q
"They had to wait," said Zoey, flipping her hair. "I'm singing the first verse alongside G-Dragon."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdh3AEBgvgf
"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.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTrBeBA6e7
"I'll try." I smiled. Zoey stuck out her tongue at Collins.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdmcmY7LcZ
We got to the studio and we found everyone else waiting for us, lazing around on the couch.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsO33ajtMC4
"Hey, you're finally here," said Seungri.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcXNWZFVv9
"Sorry, we had an issue back at the hotel," said Zoey.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg4VsVG8L4p
"Ya. A 'serious' one." I said as I rolled my eyes.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSzWjhtUgLx
"I can't wait to get started," said Daniel excitedly as he stood up from the couch.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHY950UsqVY
"Then let's do so," said1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxsgrHya1g
Collins as he joined the music producer by the console. "Zoey, Taeyang,1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZoYf3K9qm8
Christine, Sam and G-Dragon, we will start with you guys."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ58Y8AEb3Wa
I had completely forgot 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAnXcqyTWI
that G-Dragon was even in the room. I hadn't noticed him at all when he 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgqylkEHLZg
stood up from the couch and came towards Zoey and I.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQ4nUIKeXG
"Hi, Zoey," G-Dragon greeted Zoey.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKnAjqPycV
"Hi," said Zoey with a wide smile on her face.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFyUoOZ7Udd
"Ahem," Christine came from behind as she cleared her throat. "Let's go. You two can talk later."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsgbCU4ZH6Y
I rolled my eyes and together with Taeyang and Christine, we went into the live room together, followed by the two love birds.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKCjpur4uq
In the live room, there 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lpYsQyIx1
stood five microphones and with each mic had a pair of headphones around1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpbP6Sqpz4v
it. We each stood in front of a microphone and put on the headphones.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGakBTgOq6L
Ahead of us was a window where we could see the others from the other side.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPCk2qioEX
"Are you guys ready?" Collins asked as his voice was heard through the speaker in the live room.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltLR0ar4s1
I looked at the others 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiVDKR5PRsI
to see if they were settled and gave Collins a thumbs up and the music 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWwdxTCgH0l
producer started to play the tune for the song.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZdUvTQf37
G-Dragon started to sing1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTzlaGTS4P
and then afterwards, Zoey followed. Their voices blended so well with 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0nRWtgQJHB
the music, they made a perfect harmony. Looked like I did a good thing 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNMBlEBpn9
to let them sing the first verse together.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZKjsmtKh79
Collins, the music 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8sRCYDpKJ7
producer and the others outside the live room had smiles on their faces.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUtZGLXlqWJ
They were loving it alright. Collins gave them a thumbs up.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdk7wA85OEJ
Christine then sang the 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZFluViHxBx
bridge and as she came came closer to the chorus, I joined in. Then 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJ9n3ojI1X
Taeyang and I sang the chorus together.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDV0tN1GuSK
When we were done, the music producer stopped playing the track.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Ibbi7oW4Y
"That was awesome, guys," said Collins as his voice came out through the speaker. "The song is so incredible."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5y33HEiDt
"Ya, thank Sam," said Taeyang. "She is the one who came out with all of this."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrGZUihdv2D
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."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYXDDcmC8oE
"Okay, Sam and Taeyang, I1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvA0lBRkXx8
want you two to go through the chorus again, this time with a little 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzWQ3NF5l3
more high tempo and see how it sounds," said the music producer.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wui4AgRTb
"Okay," Taeyang and I said at the same time.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsftK8fNO2P
"Shall GD and I leave then?" Zoey asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCWg9VlWaYe
"You may," said Collins,1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALAHvRVtWr
looking a little irritated on his face. "But don't leave the studio. 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZwAjrOFah5
You have to work on the backup vocals."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcgskqfJSwo
"Alright, we will be here," said Zoey, with a grin on her face.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqE7WEUjxVO
If I hadn't known 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjOkHTrwUA6
better, something told me Zoey and G-Dragon were up to something. They 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC7oWiUAYLu
looked like little mischievous children as they smiled at each other and1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDU9zmYuWd
they walked out of the live room. I couldn't help but feel a little 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxeRQWUaMnB
hollow inside.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGh3p1XDoY
"So, we will start from Christine's part," said the music producer.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSb0e5kx6a4
We continued recording 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0iMBMnyMQ3
the song and later on, TOP, Mike, Daesung, Seungri and Daniel also came 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3uexkYDj9
into the live room. It took us a while to record the whole song, trying 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUL7tSun2dK
to make our vocals blend in with the song but we were done.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDgFwgH36yx
"Great job guys," said Collins. "Let's break up for lunch and then we can come back and work on the backup vocals."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2IHD2Mho8Y
"Alright," said Mike as he took out his headphones. "I'm pretty hungry now."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4eti6Q5p6
"The song is amazing," said Christine. "And it's catchy that you can sing it the whole day."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxTxx4BEeQ
"Ya," said TOP. "Why don't we all go somewhere special for lunch?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFlxwGdl77
"Like where?" I asked as I put the headphones on the mic.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4f8395Ngr
"Some restaurant I think we will like," said TOP as he looked at me with a killer smile.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQ1xYPPnKd
"That sounds great." I turned to the window to look at Collins who obviously heard everything. "Can we go, Collins?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiuYWGdm22c
"Ya, you can go," said Collins waving his hand irritatingly in the air.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxnB3L2f5u
"Yes!" Daniel punched the air with his fist.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡab0jCqA93t
"But be back within an hour."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5RQjbkEEWm
I raised an eyebrow at Collins who then rolled his eyes at me and groaned.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaZ9rNFnoT4
"Fine, an hour and a half."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbEDKNmmDna
I did a little victory dance in my heart and I smiled in triumph. Collins and the music producer soon left the studio room.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSnopvnxqP5
"How did you do that?" Daesung asked as we all walked out of the live room.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfVQguBaFoX
"Do what?" I asked with a smile on my face as Daesung was right behind me.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxroj3Y5dd
"How did you convince Collins to give us an hour and thirty minutes?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQMi7QmUyg
"That, my friend," said 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡulXbdgaLuE
Mike behind me, "is the way my sister does her thing. Just by a look in 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkY9Jbp0ben
her eyes and you will have to do whatever she wants."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3JBjHvClp
"That's not true," I said as I turned around to look at Mike who had his hand on Daesung's shoulder.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqslNepSzOL
"Really? I beg to differ," said TOP as he winked at me.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUsVevRQKT
"No one does what I want them to do just by looking at them in the eye," I said, looking away from TOP, blushing.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMptRzUNGv
"Well, it does work, most of the time," said Christine nodding her head.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVjYN90mig
"Oh, ya? Like when?" I folded my arms.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGCwIgpFABq
"Whenever you want us to1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCmGm02hA3w
tell you the truth about something and we refuse, you always give us 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRFghOXx1hk
this eye that makes us give in," said Daniel.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZrTo6z8Hn
"For real?" I raised an eyebrow.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3fL3fSjHPs
"Ya, your eyes burn and we just can't take it," said Christine.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdfM0rs0909
"Huh," I thought of all 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhicDS6Ga8
the times when either of my brothers or the girls ever did whatever I 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUnU4q9F6IE
wanted them to do just by me giving them the eye.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4EIEr9AwR
"But that doesn't explain with Collins though," said Taeyang.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgFjdk7oaBa
"Thank you, Tae," I said feeling relieved.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5YZjaaMNJz
"Come on, Sam," said 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLlAhFZANMl
Daniel. "You might not know it, but Collins listens to you because you 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5lCo9JiOg
also give him the eye. And also probably because you're his favourite."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwFbmO1BJ6F
"That makes no sense." I shook my head.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3bFtpRCIF6
"I believe him," said Seungri. "Looks like you have a way of getting to Collins to make him agree with you."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ZDFO0imUk
"But he doesn't agree to me all the time," I slowly shook my head.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgVNqbVuRs
"On some ocassions like this one, he does," said Christine with a smile.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3SiCVKJvgO
"Can we please just go for lunch?" I asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1iw6hmiIQ
Seungri came over to open the door for me, but just as I was about to step out of the room, I stopped.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwrtaLq0w8J
"Guys?" I turned around to look at the others. "Where are Zoey and GD?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzPHeTlWhc
We all turned towards the couch and noticed that there was no one there. I went back in the room and looked around.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhnuAk8PwrE
"They aren't here," I said.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATUgYXUeZ9
"These guys don't stop surprising us with their disappearing acts," said Daesung.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6wCQ66Lna
"I'm surprised Collins didn't notice," said Seungri.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujgThmJIFD
"Hopefully, they will be back before we start on the backup vocals," I said.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNBTryra5xv
"Then let's go then," said TOP. "Wherever those two are, they are fine."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡECbPAgRzyK
I nodded my head and we 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUYChG9kIZ9
all left the room. As we headed down to the ground floor, I reminded 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1w4VcoWs2
myself to leave a text message for Zoey.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujtkryjAbt
We were in the lobby and1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkIu9bMbIUS
I stopped to remove my phone. I went over to messages and realised that1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjDbjcOBi4
I had one unread message. It was the message I had received this 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZiqiyqoqm
morning.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNaGY6VKZW
I first sent Zoey a text1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpqf6C7aIk
message then I decided to read the unknown message from this unknown 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf2vdhw4cjv
person. Then TOP appeared right in front of me.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWs6X8pfztU
"Hey, what are you looking at?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA2Amikgi9v
I was startled by his sudden appearance that my thumb pressed the exit button and I had gone out of my messages.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5G3yTSMxnn
"I was just sending Zoey a message," I said.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ95J3sbNNx1
"Okay, shall we go?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoFvUnPiv9v
"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.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUl6v4sibVz
"Oh, you guys look like you're going out," said Christine with a smile.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCsqKFcufyq
"We're all going out for lunch aren't we?" I asked with a smirk.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeVfjwOfQ53
"Ya, we are," said Daesung, looking the other way and scratching the back of his head.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbMum4pPPVu
"We better go or else our one and half hours will elapse in no time," said Daniel.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjW9eI7H4Oe
Instead of using any one1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNenHNDMVl
of the BigBang members personal cars, we used the two black SUVs. We 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7OrxM6HiUL
were driven to a fancy restaurant and as usual, we grabbed a lot of 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkG4JHl1yP
attention, especially from the customers.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYc6E5eLGTR
I had to admit, the 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHxxVKlCFGJ
restaurant was nice and classy, suitable for the famous and the rich. As1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFP370657Af
I walked into the restaurant with the others, a fancy glass chandelier 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCcmMWa6VJQ
caught my eye. The polished wooden floor shone almost like glass under 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNBFLI7oW5s
the lights the chandelier reflected all over the room.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGD7tlgfeBk
A smartly dressed 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGg7I7wTBB
waiter, who by the way, was super cute, came over. He gave us a friendly1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCHqc53A2Kg
smile and I felt Christine nudge me by the shoulder and when I turned 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxjd6l4CWj
to her, she was smiling. Looked like she also noticed the waiter's good 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK7EUmiqh8q
looks too. Damn! Why were Korean men so good looking?1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYyM0JkwtYh
We were escorted to a 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFbEtNXH2gG
round table big enough to cater a whole lot of people. Even ten. But 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBCYa8tTsR
sadly, Zoey and G-Dragon weren't here.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gdNBRzYjB
TOP pulled a chair for 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUBN014wSM
me and I sat down, thanking him as he took his seat beside me. Seungri 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalsrKXuIsO
pulled a chair for Christine who sat on my other side and Seungri sat 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjcRARKxMsh
beside her.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfKgjyHdb1
"This place is so lovely," I said as I looked around.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFBE3kwzXYl
"Tell me about it," said Christine.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqg2mpyr9sd
"I knew you would like it," said TOP.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUiJQikkqLd
"Ya, it's exquisite, but I'm only here for the food," said Mike who sat opposite me.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwaIOxMYs8k
"So, let's order," said Daesung.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3uuaEyUZfW
I took the fancy looking menu with the colour of velvet and the letters written in gold. Classy.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fe8Rr971I
After our delicious meals had been served, we ate. I enjoyed it as I savoured every little food in my mouth.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqWx7WTDE4c
As we were having our 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1W8lO9nX2
dessert, we were chatting and there was a lot of laughter all around our1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWAEZNfyvNF
table. It was fun to be like this, all together as good friends and 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5PYANJpxBG
laughing about. I kind of wished Zoey and GD were here. I bet they were 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3bVtQH543p
having fun wherever they were.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0DYiqQH9qt
While I was having my 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08XYlWT3MK
strawberry cake, I felt the vibration of my phone in my pocket. Must be a1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcSTnE9bf8d
message. I took out my phone and I was shocked to see that the same 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4jrX7nhyX
unknown number had sent me a message again.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZCluvRaDZ
I tapped on the message 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0bmnjoNoV
icon and the first message the unknown number had sent to me was a 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0zAKsbI5O
photo. I had to download it first before I could even see it. And then 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5lf0ccPvtm
the next message was more surprising.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMpTSavAhGF
"Aren't you going to do anything about this?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGsleltqWO5
Anything about what was 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhfIVVgLsx2
the question. Had this had to do with the photo? Must be or else the 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkvyeSGd4f
unknown person wouldn't have texted me this message.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlYGyWYovf7
I decided to turn my data on and download the photo. Just as I was about to, my phone went off.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVKTwFCzIJ
"Dang it!" I muttered to myself.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4sUXyeQZ4H
"Hey, what's wrong?" TOP asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuPDEwGCD88
"Nothing, my phone went dead. I hadn't charged it last night."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEXl7YEXqK
"Was there something important you wanted to do?" Taeyang asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAd664ETzk
"Not really, it's not important." I shook my head but my thoughts still lingered on the unknown photo.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ32TyOGi8rR
"Did Zoey text you back?" Christine asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHpsFhxv9FD
"No, why?" I asked as I picked up a piece of strawberry cake with my fork.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFoJcWArgy
"Well, your phone vibrated so I thought you had received a message from her."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1MZQ3oxl3X
"It was nothing. Wherever Zoey is, she is having a lot of fun."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1NNOsyWVKC
"Hey, what's up with GD and Zoey anyway?" Taeyang asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUm0QORP8b
"Isn't it freaking obvious?" said Daesung. "Those two seem like a couple now."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ75xiuDSR7w
I almost choked on my cake but instead, I cleared my throat. Christine rolled her eyes.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtV4MyBI9I7
"Well, that wasn't going to go on unnoticed forever," she said.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05OwvRuPKz
"Wait, for real?" Taeyang asked, with a look of surprise.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2ydGbonOx
"And you already knew, didn't you?" Mike asked looking at Christine.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMFFn0VNixm
"Oh, please," said Christine rolling her eyes. "Don't tell me you haven't noticed how close those two are nowadays."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBEfxwAzg4U
"They have always been close," said Seungri. "But this time, they are just way too close."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMsoWjisQZR
"For them to disappear like that together, it counts for something, right?" TOP suggested.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡICCATMjFFu
"Can we please stop 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1I15cd3qF4
talking about it?" I asked. "There are people around and if they hear 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Q9x0PiJS3
all this, some of us would be hanged when this spreads like wild fire."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBNhixaQJe
"Why do you say that?" Daesung asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9CAIYOw3Sa
"Oh, oooh, oh," said Daniel waving his hand from across the table. "May I say it?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9DUmFFsiE
"No, let me," said 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm9IEVW2aEg
Christine, as she put her hand on mine and looking at me convincingly to1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtt0kZraQ4g
allow her to say what she wanted to say.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGBSBPMKNVS
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.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxt3DzYLBfP
"Because, Collins gave 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlAsWXwDVXg
these girls a golden rule when we were coming here," said Daniel. "And 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKWFncQR4oT
that is, none of them should date any one of you BigBang members. 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡre9hOmX8KC
Never."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyMQZjIj41
There was silence on the1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBuQJ57hOEv
table and I couldn't help but feel a little downcast. Christine 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfLg6TsQsK
continued to eat her dessert like nothing serious had been said. I 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpp3FiN5DBQ
looked over at my brothers who seem to be enjoying our humiliation.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡulYVOrf1bI
"Is that true?" Seungri asked, looking over at me.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7QjiNXFaHV
"Ya, it's true," I said as I slowly chewed the cake in my mouth.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKS7w9CjbqY
"Oh." Daesung looked a little disappointed as he stared down at his plate.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2eFHo4JUa
"Who cares? It's not like it's that serious," said TOP as he shrugged.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtH5olCjtDq
"It's serious to 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk3SWZrwdXv
Collins," I said as I turned to look at TOP. "We're only here to 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8SXlHauEW
collaborate with you and that's all. Not date, get married and have 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMe1Zq0dkb
babies."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH69z9S54fk
That was odd coming out 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQY0x4vMjR
of my own mouth and the others knew it too. Everyone's eyes were on me, 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2sov0BBoTO
with looks on their faces that I couldn't describe. This was 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8YeIMcuO9f
embarrassing. My hands were now curled into fists as they rested on my 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOm52qWVHIF
laps.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZCnCiVgE3
"Sorry, that came out wrong," I said.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPB49UfBqc9
"Well, you did catch us by surprise by saying that," said Taeyang.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ335QAMVGRk
I really did. Something 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi24cvqCYwg
had gone totally wrong with me and I could feel it. My thoughts were 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBcmQybnW2k
spinning in my head and I felt like I had no control over how I felt.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKaoHS6Alpa
"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.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemt0XYD606
I quickly closed the 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wiVvkyrCk
door immediately I stepped in the ladies' room, leaning my back against 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6byoPm0M5
the door. My hands flew to my hair and I took a deep breath. I walked 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcW5MmvCCP4
over to the sink and stared at myself in the mirror.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6gsBtqIVkf
"What's wrong with you today?" I asked my reflection.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5PpbOez9SN
I shook my head and I 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKtDErLKCF
knew I wasn't alright. Something was definitely wrong. Was it the fact 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUDjLVh3H4U
that Zoey and G-Dragon were together? As far as I know, I wasn't really 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡONmDtgrbGZ
supposed to care. But I did.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOw48bD54eA
I looked at myself and I1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjD84KATC9
could see the sadness in my eyes. Were they for G-Dragon? I shook my 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1eMw6nha9p
head at the thought. No. They weren't. He and I were still at war with 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ULRuawM9t
each other and that made no sense. I had to stop thinking about these 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡprSJ08iVbO
things and focus on what's really important.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxEdLQ3a2Vd
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.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28ZTV674GX
"Are you okay, Sam?" Mike asked as I sat back down.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbWgeXGsn4
"Ya, I am. I just feel horrible that I said that."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6yHZY13vCJ
"We think we know why you did," said Christine.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVzhYIVLVq
I gulped. What had these1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMtnZ5HFld
guys thought of now? If it was what I thought it was, I would rather 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6cEwASRxeX
not hear it. There was a moment of silence at the table.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ57oloF9DG6
"Zoey has you so worked up that you're irritated," said TOP.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsYwQIEowzM
That was not what I was expecting. I was wide eyed and in my heart, feeling a little relieved.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyYfbUOu0PS
"Ya, I remember when we were coming here in the plane and Collins told you to watch over Christine and Zoey," said Mike.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVO3CaXtOMc
"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.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2yywDXXpN
While Christine was one 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeSpLbaFrSl
who at least had her hormones in check, Zoey and I were pretty much 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3AEOnycN3W
guilty. I couldn't tell who was worse between either of us. I bet I was 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOXdu0o4vH6
worse.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw1bASu9bVj
"Well, I guess I'm also guilty myself like Zoey," I said, admitting to everyone.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeeX852g4lz
"If you mean TOP flirting around with you, then trust me, you're not," said Daniel.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYCNBuSc530
"Hey!" TOP looked a little annoyed but rather amused. He ended up laughing.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqjy32v0wGn
"And me calling you my panda," said Seungri, with a smirk.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjbbiIuRFOs
"You see, Sam, people just like you," said Mike. "And these guys shouldn't dare make a move of kissing you."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55xCc1t0N0
I blushed. "Mike!"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡta9NtAfJZ6
"Don't worry, he is just being protective over his sister," said Daesung, laughing.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR0RtaXcRM9
"I've tried kissing 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLKpnrKniS
her," TOP challenged as he looked over at my brothers. He raised an 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDLN2iX6XyH
eyebrow. "What are you going to do about that?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeIWf0lfI9L
"Uhh, if I were you, I 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VbkJ66qPH
wouldn't challenge them, TOP," I said as put my hand on his shoulder, 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ciozSzFWm
looking over at my brothers who looked set on tearing TOP apart. And I 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOpwuuZspZK
caught a glimpse of Daesung rolling his eyes at TOP. "You would end up 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmEW1N9f9p
regretting it."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjt9Rfq2yQr
"True," said Christine, nodding her head at TOP. "These boys are like monsters you can't beat. Only Sam can handle them."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0u5Tx3goI
I looked over at Christine with a look that said 'that's not true.' Christine shrugged.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpamKYDVLT
"Fine, I'll listen to 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzpfOmt1JQY
you ladies," said TOP as he looked at Christine and I. "Most especially 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxelNGfistB
because Sam says so." He gave me that killer bad boy smile of his and I 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡffJy20ZD2U
blushed.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrBk3g6IoHJ
"Well, we better go," said Taeyang.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdJiWDvWNu
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.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2JfhmZfYiI
After TOP paid the bill, we left the restaurant with the paparazzi taking pictures as we walked out.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Fv83qyUNq
We got to YG just in 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZmpOJtmKa
time. I just hoped that Zoey and G-Dragon were back here. I didn't want 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQByVrruVwf
Collins on my throat and giving him the eye, wasn't going to help.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYvqSCe0KVk
When we got to the studio, we found G-Dragon.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvafCgw6DFR
"Hey, where did you two disappear to?" Christine asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP5MC1MNvoR
"We just went out," said G-Dragon as he looked around the room.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzWRLA6sAG
I couldn't help but feel1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjXKIO0hxab
that something was wrong, just by the look on his face. "What's wrong?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdM4YxjIx3o
I asked him with my eyebrow raised.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ371wwezjd
"Huh?" He appeared to be absent minded. Was he looking for something?1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkmkrwtLUO
"I was asking what's wrong with you? And where is Zoey?" I asked as I also looked around.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYoI2R5hHg
"That's the thing," said G-Dragon. "I can't find her."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWGFs3mw3fK
I felt something inside 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvaLrLwSvHy
me break and my eyes bulged out of their sockets ready to fall out. I 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIt9wlEwbVk
couldn't believe what I was hearing.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt45pymNY3n
"Are you for real?" Taeyang asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0FvDHX7Qoc
"I'm serious," said G-Dragon.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46OhUQKobg
"Wait, do you mean you 'lost' her?" Mike asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm1cKaA6tBD
"I didn't lose her, I just can't find her."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjuxtsV17so
"That sounds more like losing her to me," said Daniel.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDEcBM9O86
"You guys aren't helping!" G-Dragon exclaimed throwing his hands in the air in frustration.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC22cSKgczK
"Where were you guys first of all?" Seungri asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWMrS6tTSq
"We first went to have lunch then the two of us went to the park."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl3XhdcyJvU
"Then?" TOP asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr20i7rDMtI
"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."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4E4oqD2KQz
"Are you sure?" Daesung asked. "Did you look everywhere for her?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtP3zZEV66q
"I did. I even asked people around and they hadn't seen her. I thought she would be back here."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvXO8DKUDCO
"That would be unusual, given that Zoey doesn't really know the city so well," said Taeyang.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCeQOcLiWtS
"But where could she be?" Christine asked looking as worried as I was.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJSWj8pO22Y
"Try calling her," said Seungri, turning to Christine.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx72oLS8cdB
"I just hope she is okay," I said as I rubbed my neck.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxHGJxRByl9
"What are we going to do with Collins?" Mike asked looking at me.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡykA5RyYzSc
"I don't know," I said. "Hey, do me a favour and try to call the hotel and see if Zoey is there."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡccmnUSDP1s
"Sure thing," said Mike as he pulled out his phone.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ39ZwoAAsIT
"Her phone is off," said Christine her phone in her hand.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPEa2gNI3oa
"Oh, no, this isn't good," said TOP.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdx4Sf1ar9R
"Again, Zoey is putting us into more problems."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5WVt6LjNmJ
I couldn't help but 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlCSCqTzC5e
wonder why she went off like that. Something wasn't right. Was G-Dragon 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgP233NsNSi
not telling us what was really going on?1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9s9bnVWxm
"No one has seen Zoey go into the hotel," Mike announced.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ERTL63jLd
"We're goners," said Seungri as he dropped himself on the couch.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUum58qGeab
"We've to look for her," said TOP.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCrj4vgiMS
"But where can we start looking?" Daniel asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgg2pE4klQ1
"I don't know, but we have to go and find her," I said.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpX5zXNls8x
"And we have to do something with Collins," said Taeyang.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkyxC2I2xHc
"Did someone say my name?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0MVjnfEu1Q
I cringed. He was one 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdmpKlXTIHU
person I wasn't ready to face right now. Everyone else wasn't ready to 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8sDKqH9L7p
either. We slowly turned to look behind us and Collins stood there with 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF9bdHmi2eN
the music producer.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgATYSHKKld
"Why are you all looking worried like someone has gone missing?" Collins asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbjNO1SLaG
I sighed. If only he knew. But if he does find out, he wasn't going to forgive us that easily.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡflF6gv4Lf1
Collins looked on at us, waiting to answer him. What to do now! We were going to be in such big trouble.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdFmPnKNaA
"Looks like you aren't 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81cXPnCIbC
going to answer me, so let's get back to work," said Collins turning 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvPZRrnUZ3
away from us and heading towards the console.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Lguwz8pdK
"We will work on the backup vocals," said Collins. "Zoey, Sam and Christine, you're up."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡStTLsIag4Y
I looked at the others 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYoaaCPGpn3
who hadn't said a word. We all looked at each other. Someone had to do 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ330rsUyD78
something or else we would be toast.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTf8uVDW7O
"Are we going to start?" Collins asked looking behind him as he turned on his chair. "Where is Zoey?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPbAU1wvy7x
It was about time he noticed. It looks like we ourselves weren't ready to tell him that Zoey is missing.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnO3YPhOSd
"What's wrong with you, guys? Why aren't you saying anything?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU1JAaL5muC
"Zoey isn't here," said Mike.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRpt6IvRIJ
"Ya, I can see that. Where is she?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfg7gH68Wx
"She wasn't feeling too well," I said. "So she went back to the hotel."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYyB2gMpT1g
"What? Did she eat something bad for lunch?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn8NEcvfRZi
"Ya. She did," said G-Dragon.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKnsRzJv0X
"So, do you think we should continue or do this tomorrow when Zoey is around?" I asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeNmc0NxhfG
"We should just do this tomorrow," the music producer suggested, turning to Collins.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0xMKxOXFh
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.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFAvW8re1t
"Fine," said Collins. "We really need Zoey, so we should just do it tomorrow."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSWE7EjmaS
Mike and Daniel almost 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvBrMD12dR
jumped with relief but they managed to control themselves. Christine 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeFp2beeDsC
turned around so that Collins and the music producer wouldn't notice her1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsyyZBfNF2
sighing in relief. The rest of us just stood there, pocker faced.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPnKZmHLGD
"That's fine," said Taeyang.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAC9mVi10FI
"I really wanted us to be done with this today," said Collins.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKHsRQfMzY
"Looks like it wasn't meant to be," said TOP.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAnyYFhriv0
Ya. It wasn't meant to be. Looks like we were lucky. That meant we could look around for Zoey.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXn9OvwVzI
"You guys can go back to the hotel and make sure Zoey is okay," said Collins.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJGhQ2URFv
"I'll go," said Christine. "The others can stay here if they want to."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡndGB678fvT
Christine was doing the 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVGIxdClbcH
right thing. If she went to the hotel, Collins wouldn't be so suspicious1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYTExaYiG3C
of what's going on and just in case he decides to go back there at 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcARikJVci6
anytime, Christine might cover up for Zoey.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3P8tMe95p
"Okay and what will the rest of you all be doing?" Collins asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2FdZ2lUalA
"Chilling," G-Dragon and I replied at the same time. We both looked at each other afterwards.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoa4b8DCy1d
"Fine, I have some other things to attend to. I might just go and check up on Lee and Yang Hyun-suk."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUK3wqoVAW
I wanted to ask where, 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRv3dydtkUA
but I knew it was none of my business. I realised that I hadn't seen Lee1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasSVkfhs4s
the whole day. Must be she was busy with Yang Hyun-suk. Collins and the1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDm0ZyJt79u
music producer soon left.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9YjFrQBkbl
I walked over to the door and checked if Collins and the music producer were in the hall. But they were gone.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVTmaMc5Lfa
"Looks like we have to split up and look for Zoey," said Taeyang.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYdX0wyL0i
"Ya, we should," I 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ou3fkiar9
nodded my head. "G-Dragon and I will take Christine to the hotel just in1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbug9ZNFXuN
case Zoey shows up and if Collins decides to go there."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5IlXz4XpVB
"I'll go with Taeyang," said Daniel.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbyNf8RY9cD
"And I go with Seungri," said Mike.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKgsUMxkSGG
"That leaves Daesung and I," said TOP.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡynZd2MpqeZ
"Great, let's go," I said and we all walked out of the room.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMR5McXFE1b
As soon as we left the 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJc6P4o7C4
YG building, we split up in the parking lot. Luckily, Collins had 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBUG5GM11TU
already left. Christine and I went with G-Dragon in his car. It was 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqv0kKSsmSW
important that I had to talk to G-Dragon concerning Zoey.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYXJxBuafW9
We soon arrived at the hotel and Christine got out of the car. I gave her my phone for it to be charged.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNwnZLIPVah
"Call us if anything good happens," I said I looked at Christine through the window.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFzK6ty8UNR
"And what if something bad happens?" Christine asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh3y8xjXUXU
"Like Collins? You can handle it," I said as I gave her a smile. Christine winked and wished us luck.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8VGlHp9m18
G-Dragon drove away and 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYKGprgD2iM
we first went to the park where he came with Zoey after lunch. I just 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xwQbDWgvr
hope she didn't go that far and that she was okay.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlYXdyHf9KT
"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.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEi4IdizrHy
"What?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdeAMFmcgH
"Did you two argue?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWmh6XJ8acN
"No, we didn't," said G-Dragon as he went around me and started walking towards the park.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADk51cjpW7
I quickly turned and followed him. When I caught up with him, I stood in front of him to stop him.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0e8rabgxRz
"Are you telling me the truth?" I asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsWmwHUx7sH
"Do you think I am lying?" G-Dragon asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwIQ26b0P7v
"I think so." I said with my arms folded.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJ6do7NRlO
"You're crazy," said G-Dragon as he walked around me again.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCauOYbxbDX
I huffed. He wasn't going to budge. I had to try something to get the truth out of him.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJq0ve4gCHT
With quick strides, I 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNik5v0G4K
caught up with him again. This time I started to walk backwards so that I1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbs6sVM4cqX
could look at him directly in his face.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwhMegfXdWk
"What are you doing?" G-Dragon asked as he looked at me, puzzled.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrgFD163Sm7
"I want you to tell me the truth."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvY09HpVyG
"You're stressing yourself out by walking backwards."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rxhmnRRKA
"Do I care?" I raised an eyebrow at him. "I know you're hiding something from me."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuA63O9FzP3
G-Dragon chuckled and 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfadOFFagdo
that almost made me smile. "Stop playing detective, my little kitty. As 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHIE4sexN2I
much as it suits you, you're going to trip over and fall."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡahW1vQnx1x
"Then you have to stop me from walking backwards by answering my question."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5rjmkIIffT
"This is one silly method of interrogation if you ask me."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFcmJR4DnS
"I can tell you're not telling me something. Zoey can't just leave like that without someone upsetting her."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7dTPJbd2cs
"And how do you know?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Lb6xvVL4W
"I'm her best friend. 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ50pQLKrtnk
And plus, whenever someone gets her really upset, she runs off without 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCoA5X0DNL3
telling anyone. She always wants be alone to think."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjL5hQLuai
"I hope she doesn't think of committing suicide."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8mHMtCEkP
"Zoey can't end her 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdUiJZ4LyR
life. Well, she hasn't tried to anyway. She's leaving the dream right 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2fQBB7akGF
now and ending her life this early, isn't going to sound right. Unless 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡESTt8T6Cn5
you did something."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKtmIxYn7FK
"Me?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7HukU4dgi
"Da! Yes, you!"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0YalLmxD3
"What could I possibly have done for Zoey to try and commit suicide?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1fvwucuMH
"Don't talk about suicide like that." I hit him on the arm.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmKG9Hy62zt
"Ouch!" G-Dragon stopped and held his arm. "That hurts!"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc2ozU6zaTU
"Well, you deserve it. Now tell me the truth." I put my hands on my hips.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWld7NNYuiM
"I'm telling you, Zoey and I didn't argue."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkX46y6Ru2E
G-Dragon looked me in the eye and he seemed really convincing.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxcjipaCHkz
"Okay. I believe you," I said. "But you must have said something that upset her."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzXISFLRK4b
"I can't really remember what I had said to her. Maybe she just left on her own."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJTbJJsHoy
"And with her phone off, that's a bit strange, don't you think?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQeINavHclC
"When we find her we will ask why she ran off."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpIjcULPWZc
"Ya. Sure."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdW1KFh8eDr
"Now, will you please 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT8FRWySw6T
stop walking backwards? I don't want you to trip and save you from 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovZQR4LK0A
falling. That will spark rumours again like it did during the 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpdzYeY7HV
interview."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbQAHTjRJ5
I didn't say anything, 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpEoQCrpd1X
so I just nodded my head and faced forward. We went further into the 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlGyISeKv3m
park and as we looked around for Zoey, we sparked some attention from 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZwYlBKUlv
our darling fans. We signed a few autographs and took a few pictures and1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4J8w1c4Zb
went on with our search. We even asked some fans if they had seen Zoey,1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxCmpg9RQW
but nothing.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9rw8U3z96
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.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8BHm2N3H0
"Are you tired already?" G-Dragon asked as he looked down on me.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkrckCBND3D
"I'm not," I said as I 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg6UFzcA99B
removed my slippers and felt comfortable with my bare feet on the grass.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0uUqsdDW72
"I'm trying to figure out where Zoey could be."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIc04XMgcix
G-Dragon sat down beside1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbRuGiSQFeh
me and the two of us were silent, looking at the pond. Laughter filled 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDCqKL5BGk
my ears as I saw a group of kids playing from across the pond. Some 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0ArZQd3A3
couples also sat on the grass close to the pond. It was such a beautiful1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9EnP3jLvCB
day and sitting by the pond felt so relieving.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56ZW44R93M
"Have you figured something yet?" G-Dragon asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZbGgy03QBo
I frowned and looked at him. "No, why do you ask?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBY2QSDQIwq
"You seem to be smiling to yourself," said G-Dragon as he looked at me.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkaFVoA6ZT
"No, I'm actually enjoying what I'm experiencing right now."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVfFXLLaju
"You love nature, don't you?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡunpA7CvMpp
I closed my eyes, still smiling. "Ya. I really do."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0cqjSZG8l
At that moment, I was so1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpoN2YoCj86
caught in the little world inside my head. For a moment, I forgot about1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqWZEZ3LPk
everything. About looking for Zoey, being famous, and the whole world 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXWpsNaqtqC
with everyone and everything in it. It's like they never existed because1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtKDZSEoRe9
even the noise around me seemed non existent.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxjIH6Hh70
Then I felt something 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtlD3lQBrze
brush against my hand like a soft feather. The touch brought me back to 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88zfZXn3cY
reality and I quickly opened my eyes. I looked beside me and G-Dragon 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7iwcrQJPaK
was staring at me.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNlUhnAAOPW
"What?" I asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡniAlUwHpFr
"Has anyone ever told you how beautiful you are?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhfmP16HNaH
I blushed all of the 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeLrHBt5thQ
sudden and I looked down. His hand covered mine and for a moment I 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEFtkMCuVxO
wanted to pull away. But then again, I couldn't explain how I felt with 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWoPQwVTqI
his hand on mine. I felt this weird comfort.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxj2H4GvwH
I would have said yes to1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Q0OueX3Sk
his question, but no words came out. This wasn't right. As much as I 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs93hv0KNVM
wanted him close to me, I knew I would end up getting hurt because we 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsgq7nDPfw9
were never meant to be.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn17HVqVMMn
"Umm," I pulled my hand away and put it closer to my body. "Please don't say that GD."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOdvKv8fFO
"Why?" He asked softly.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnsIhDxoFtP
"Because this isn't right at all and you know it."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCreKz5Olg
"What do you mean?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8n4ZY4ho8M
"You know that I ready know about Zoey and you. You guys are more like a couple."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMWPekrJi9
"So?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWbEXZ6IyV
"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."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqe70xhtvfO
"Looks like you figured out that I don't really like Zoey as such as I like you."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3x3dx5DQr
I didn't say anything as I continued to figure out what to say next.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBi79XR6N2n
"Then why are you leading Zoey on? She doesn't deserve this, you know?" I asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGi3AmilmN
"I know."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ykLduMBWr
"Then why are you doing this?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIRW9UjtXbV
G-Dragon looked at me like he never had before. He soon looked away and sighed.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFI4aphSI1y
"I'm doing this because of you, Sam. But even if I do so, I still can't get you out of my head."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDghTl1oe1
I also looked the other way, trying to act like those words hadn't affected me. But they did and they did so badly.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlef11eGKWe
"You should find another1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasFf509x2p
way to do so, GD." I turned to look back at him and he faced me. "But 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rmNpr4T1X
not with Zoey. I don't want her getting hurt because of the both of us. I1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJyZMg17crH
will never forgive myself."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHlLtJfJQZL
G-Dragon nodded his head. "I'll do so."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4e0dxCUI1A
I wanted to smile but I 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNGfGYH8VI
couldn't bring myself to do it. I hoped he kept his word and maybe with 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHZ9Z8C1hN
this little talk we've had, we would be friends again and stop acting 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBZmirmHZM
like we had beef with each other.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGg0UNu8mh
Just as I was about to 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTJtjebJZX
ask him why he had been giving me the attitude lately and if it had 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUfrhs8IX2A
anything to do with his jealousy, his phone rang. He quickly removed it 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4M8h1eONv8
from his pocket and answered it.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUvSIv2pqB
"Hello? Christine?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYIJmyYRHT
I was now attentive. Had she found Zoey? I wished I could have talked to her myself.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk0dySNUmMs
"Okay, we will be right there. Inform the others as well."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ44toLGhpuE
"What happened?" I asked after he cut the call.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUsDaWfQkOQ
"Christine called to tell me that she knows where Zoey is."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNYKRF04JJz
"Where is she?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3I0bqQbwF
"She is at a famous café. I know where it is."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Bkrj6aBaW
"But how did Christine know where Zoey is?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ezsVnCxCm
"Zoey's phone went back on and she texted where she was. And she is not alone."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeLIABSjdIS
"Who is she with?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8s8kKXvPWl
"We're about to find out. Let's go."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp3TFW7W2EL
G-Dragon got up from the1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcbsIgt0WNs
ground and he held out his hand to me. I took it and he pulled me up 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOM3TLJ5Cm
from the ground. We left the park together, heading towards his car.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29Kch9kJZD
When we got in his car, 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfprA8iEGs2
we drove through the city and we arrived at this small fancy café. We 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5la6rvRy3A
parked across the street and before we could get out of the car, I 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFn7ZdNeLyw
looked across towards the café.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKB574BOUAo
"Can you see, Zoey?" G-Dragon asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Yew0Xw3Y2
Through the huge window,1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfbhYKF1qLo
I could see what was going on inside. Looked like a lot of people 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQmFilZdiUq
enjoyed coming over to the café. The place was parked for an ordinary 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVUTMR9sw1
day in the afternoon.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfER8lzaeG9
I searched for Zoey, but1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5PqU7yJ7p
I couldn't see her. It was then that I saw Zoey at the far corner of 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2CulESBIal
the café. She was facing the window side and I saw her with someone. 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡylDEmX7TSD
Sitting opposite her was a man in a fancy looking black suit. From afar,1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWlOJgoGwm
I could tell his suit was expensive and I couldn't see his face.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2nylc6Ee4f
"I see her," I said. "And she is definitely with someone."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo54ICQT9lc
"Who is it?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQzCt23B7m
"I don't know. By the look of his suit, he seems like a business man or one rich tycoon."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSWMM4t6aeB
"Seriously?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkRAZVuF6R
"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?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLe6Q8NhE9
G-Dragon looked towards the windshield, avoiding my gaze. "No, I'm not. I'm just wondering who it was, that's all."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡytfek5opl3
I rolled my eyes and 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41Qq19rzre
said nothing more. I went back to looking at the café and focused on 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRt7nOhdfgq
Zoey. I decided to read her body language and see if she was okay. She 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8fdbkyOkbP
looked like she was enjoying herself, chatting with this stranger.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvH7JRsaJBp
She was sipping her cup 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4SsxFYqIdn
of coffee and she went back to smiling at the stranger. Something was a 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdEZ2yTemSZ
bit off and I shifted on my seat to see if I was seeing right.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuS32hgpcMN
"Hey, is something wrong?" G-Dragon asked, noticing my tension.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQuNYQxx6H
"Ya."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNlvPBoOnA
G-Dragon also turned on his seat and looked through the window.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsVbRPny84O
Zoey's smile made me 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsf6ngjMFli
wonder what was going on. She was smiling and chatting but she looked a 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOhwCsTZmd
little nervous. Usually when she is with a guy, she was always the one 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIf6zcjdEFT
who was never scared of leading the conversation and became pretty1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡczXErgNhQk
comfortable with the person. Unless the guy was creepy enough to be a serial killer.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nn4mO5RYv
I felt a threat coming 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsj4DyTJSNx
up. Was this guy dangerous? Zoey had a nervous smile on her face and if I1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4UilMeRmlO
was not mistaken, I think I noticed her fingers tap frantically on the 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Eg2MX7Kkh
table. She did that whenever she was nervous. I had to know what was 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKwVWyjMiES
going on in there.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35nhpB3OQE
"Let's go," I said as I turned to look at G-Dragon. "I'm not liking this."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTOfXlTGIu
"Thank you," said G-Dragon, looking relieved. "I had a bad feeling about this guy."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMz7fuxyMoK
"Ya, right," I said as I grabbed the handle of the door, opened it and stepped out.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxPlz6D7Dz
Just as G-Dragon came 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIKZdMiCEdT
out of the car, three cars appeared off the main road and came to park 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjvxurG32D
in the parking space behind G-Dragon's car. The others had arrived.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfVNVcu1ycJ
"Christine told us to meet you here," said Taeyang as he and Mike came out of his car.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTpxGghYVt
"Zoey's in the café," I said as I pointed across the road.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡffN6Tlvm1d
"Alright, let's go," said Seungri.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyveenBCRE
When I looked back at the café window, I noticed that Zoey was all alone on her table. That was odd. Where was he?1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFU2ULN6Cp
"Oh, no, no, no," I said staring wide eyed inside the café.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2Fm7XbQuI
"What is it, Sam?" Daesung asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8dyzaMGC9E
I didn't answer him as I1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmmDjX19kdC
quickly dashed across the road without even checking for any cars. I 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSbsDzLuef
could hear the others behind call out to me to be careful. I luckily 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGwjXyfwjM
managed to reach the café without getting hit.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWQoMkFOAS
When I got to the café, a1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeWRa6HDQwP
few people came out through the door. None of them matched the person 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqa9PSKhA6o
who was in the café with Zoey. I quickly went in and I found Zoey still 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZE1XWCs901
sitting in the corner. I rushed over to her that my presence scared her.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyjqYwkPVmT
"Sam! You scared me to death!" Zoey held her chest as she breathed in and out so heavily, trying to calm down.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQDlKcAD7L
"Where did you go?" I asked, taking the seat the stranger had been sitting on earlier.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnFkUnUezAK
"Oh, I...um.." Zoey played with her fingers.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmteqiZFDab
"Don't you dare try to 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡih1kB6F03X
lie to me, Zoey," I threatened. "You went with GD for lunch and the two 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEN8LYn8kCY
of you went to the park. When GD went to get ice cream, you had 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYAsPkw4be
disappeared. And the next thing we know, you're here."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvDyLklafIO
"Christine told you where I was?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNbCtHQV0Mw
"Of course she had to. We were worried sick."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXvkUutarJL
I heard the bell of the 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9imMECIm2
café ring and I knew the others had arrived. They soon came over by the 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7dIMWHSY6n
table. Only Taeyang, G-Dragon and Daniel were the ones who came in.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2YxZKyQq5O
"Zoey where have you been?" Daniel asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPoXqbgBRf
"And who was that guy you were with, huh?" G-Dragon asked, looking down at Zoey with a frown on his face.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxqdKRf4PL
"Awww, are you jealous, my G-Dragon?" Zoey smiled at him.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwL6TDPCygn
"Stop taking all this 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE4JaZMnUsW
like a joke, Zoey. I saw the way you were behaving with him. You weren't1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxgAyFBxg7
yourself when I saw you from across the street," I said.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxi0rI7TkVl
The smile on Zoey's face1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡukps7MykEJ
disappeared in an instant. Good. Maybe now she would take us seriously.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJiB4nDMidh
Her safety was way more important than she could ever imagine. If 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1HcY59A3EZ
anything had happened to her, a lot of us here would never forgive 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbvnpk8t8SO
ourselves.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdVBdqguEV
"Can we please get out of here?" Taeyang suggested. "This isn't the place to discuss this."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0289N4xH3
"You're right," I said 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGkAY0Gokd
as I looked around the café and many heads were turning our way. I hated1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhikGF8r7VC
attracting so much attention sometimes.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3O3L7v53r
The others had started 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2uO3FupHxB
to leave and Zoey and I both stood up from the table. I noticed the 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQPXVx7FI3R
teacup the stranger had used and my mind still couldn't stop thinking 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡelcOKF27Pj
about who he was.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKkl30MgTp
After we left the café, 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIxouzv882N
we went back across the road where the vehicles were parked. Daesung, 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4aS2tFdEG
TOP, Mike and Daesung stood waiting for us.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLqgvRW6vW
"Thank goodness, you're alright, Zoey," said Daesung.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezZi86AIXa
"Ya, thank goodness you weren't lost," said Mike. "We wondered if we would find you in a ditch or something."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHcrGot9LG
Zoey frowned at Mike and all he could do was smile back at her mischievously.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHY0YhGQ6kQ
"Let's all go back to the hotel, shall we?" I suggested. "Zoey can tell us everything from there."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbaDRVtsBDI
Zoey and I went in 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0P0TiGqZpz
G-Dragon's car making sure I sat in the backseat. The others got in the 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jQUc28tIg
other cars and we drove off, G-Dragon's car leading the way.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDxDo5PopM
We were all back in the 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgGWYxC83RP
hotel on our floor. Luckily, Collins wasn't around. I was relieved. Now I1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpLalnBLlYO
could vent out all my anger on Zoey.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvqCWSdQ87
We gathered ourselves in1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGa7Y0Ov72U
the lounge. The others sat on the couch and made themselves 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ96a4nFv3ro
comfortable. Zoey and I were left standing and I looked at her, with my 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHIRvNkmLiW
hands on my hips.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH1QVQrgZZX
"Okay, let's start with why you disappeared?" I asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3AZEQTCMuA
"No, don't ask that," said G-Dragon. "Ask who she was with first."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjX6Jiwh6Nt
"I'm the one asking the questions." I turned to face G-Dragon. "I want to know what made her go like that."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCUux6fZ1w
"Fine, I tell you," said1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvGkIiWauM
Zoey raising her hand to calm me down. "G-Dragon went over to get some 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡisszGZVM6S
ice cream when a person came up to me. Said he was my biggest fan."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHoNElGDpYn
"Don't tell me you fell for the person's good looks like always," said Christine shaking her head.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobCTS4RLZ1
"You know handsome men are my weakness," said Zoey. "Sorry G-Dragon."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF2prxeVFIX
"No, I don't mind," said1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqkOz8gbX0
G-Dragon, shaking his head. I looked at him again and I was surprised 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1dSaqiSzE
with the look on his face that he really didn't mind at all.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmdoqQXfJ3
"So, he said he is your biggest fan and then what?" Taeyang asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQZJ4HtM31
"He offered that the two of us go out for some coffee," said Zoey. "That's how I left."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5IrEKKtUw
"Now that makes no sense or maybe you have no sense, Zoey," said Seungri.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqi7wBkA2E8
"Huh?" Zoey looked at Seungri, looking embarrassed.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhYAfABp5l
"As much as that sounds 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPLjm4pocy
totally embarrassing, Seungri is right," said Christine. "What you said 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqVAP1RMclz
doesn't make sense at all. How could you go out for coffee with someone 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRJ0QXb9OC
you claims to be your fan without taking G-Dragon along with you?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrz1vFKOMY6
I started to tap my foot1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2rYxJVyRG9
and looked at Zoey, ready to breathe out fire if necessary. Christine 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD3KD5NMg0U
was right and surprisingly, Seungri too. She wasn't telling us the 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxHKzZvG4jf
truth.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPdfWIZFpa
"Come on, Zoey, tell us 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPmwPOAmriY
what really happened," I said. "You couldn't leave without GD. And you 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9R4kFgZCZ
had your phone turned off. All I know about the person you were with is 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoGIwQYINwh
that he was wearing an expensive black suit."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyc2JGLXSyq
"Okay, do you really want to know the truth?" Zoey asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ezvFJTXo5
"Yes!" everyone replied at the same time, that almost made Zoey jump in fright.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjRv1QN9LFV
"Okay, okay, eish," said1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiCmjwaL9wF
Zoey. "You scared the hell out of me. The truth is, I went with my fan 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYplWilHNI
because he insisted that I go with him and not tell anyone about it."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡar65CNLklC
"Huh?" TOP looked confused.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPRBL405OBJ
"What fan lays out that kind of condition?" Mike asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSAFjEX0Rbs
"Someone who was ready to take advantage of Zoey," I answered.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasNSpUG16o
"If he did, you guys still wouldn't have found me," said Zoey.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY4GHBRHHIv
"If he did, you wouldn't have been looking so nervous in the café."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3E3QLAvadm
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.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZPQ2WtbbzN
"Then what were you two talking about?" I asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOBa2B2PiQL
"Just stuff," said Zoey, avoiding my eyes. "About me and my celebrity life."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi60TEBu4ez
"You're sure?" I asked. "Didn't he talk about himself?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVzpkgE2NU
"Ya, totally." Zoey nodded her head. He never said anything about himself. Not even his name."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn2pFcmQJaG
"Then why did you look so nervous in the café?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15CV89G4fV
"He was asking some personal questions I didn't like."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeK98Ayca1d
"Are you sure?" Daniel 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5V0mwVZytC
asked. "When someone asks you a personal question, you either snap back 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdS5Sr5768o
at them or walk away. Whether it's an annoying reporter, any of your 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLrRwIVzFOg
haters or even us."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfbKcbZDpqn
Daniel was right. Zoey 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIVVNNdVERM
would have stood and walked away from the stranger but she didn't. I 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjVtMgdxLl
wondered what question he might have asked her. That's if Zoey was 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJynD7bibbo
telling the truth.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6zPqazzyDg
"I didn't want to look so mean in front of him," said Zoey. "He seemed like a very nice guy."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJfU9df5Wp
"A very nice guy that 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMpVhyZe6Gp
made you run off with him, made you switch off your phone and made you 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrALR4nPAb
so uncomfortable," said G-Dragon, looking really irritated.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMphsbw06En
"Come on," said Zoey. "He wasn't that bad, seriously."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2KoNG48ES
I didn't want to 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡki3cT2xjbh
pressurise Zoey with more questions. Right now, she was getting away 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfP7aA4Po4f
with it. If she was hiding something, I would find out sooner or later.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBGUTe9fAGB
"Okay," I said. "We're just glad you're fine."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9Qj5rUy3N
"And not dead," said 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xWRkMXPND
Mike with a smirk. Seungri and Christine who sat on either side of him, 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hVTeBlhf0
both gave him the elbow in the side and he howled in pain.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ467M444owC
"I'll pretend I never heard that," said Zoey.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkIitpTSxmQ
"And you better get 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0yRItrNh60
ready for Collins," I said giving Zoey a smirk of my own. "We told him 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAizoYFuxfC
you had a bad tummy ache and that's why you weren't at the studio."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8taqzs69iy
"Seriously?" Zoey gave me an angry stare. "Couldn't you have told him a better lie?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzYqVG4bDts
"That you were missing? Fat chance. You've already put some of us into enough trouble for one day."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fj8zN19pv
"Alright. Sorry. I won't do that again."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2rdfGqeIqC
I rolled my eyes, while shaking my head and went over to the dining table. Something told me it wouldn't be the last.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ90dHFizeyM
"Well, now that you're found," said Daesung, as he stood up. "Some of us better get going."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQszHJwwjTR
"Sorry for putting you guys into so much trouble," said Zoey.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GLnbFxSiR
"As long as you're fine and Collins isn't going to kill us, it's okay," said Taeyang with a smile.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrXQ4lKbm8U
"I'll be leaving too," said Seungri and he gave Zoey a hug and he walked over to hug me as well.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMlQ0xHKYi6
"Alright, see you tomorrow," I said.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmvwLeylkRp
One by one the BigBang 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ73k6EGZ1EL
members started to leave, saying bye to each other. G-Dragon stayed 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbBsQDWItyQ
behind with Zoey so that they could talk a little. Giving them privacy, 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2XiPtuh8Rs
Christine, my brothers and I left for our rooms.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFs5eJDFVJP
When I went in my room, I1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckyNYrXDvp
went for my phone that was still charging on my bed. The phone was 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9u5MJSe9k
still off and I decided to switch it on. It was almost full.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEEOi5UwinE
There was a knock on the door and I called out to the person to come in. Christine entered.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6MYLxEQYU
"Hey, can we talk?" Christine asked as she closed the door behind her.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDrJU9Xw7N3
"About what?" I turned to look at her.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxkpSqe1CkJ
"Do you really believe what Zoey told us?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXsegRXLj4
"No, I don't." I sat on the bed.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAs7y6SvV3p
"Looks like I'm not the only one," said Christine as she came to sit on Zoey's bed, facing me.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1PFmGecB3
"I wonder why she isn't telling us the truth."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjn28G7mDMq
"Did you see the man's face?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DunA7T5qm
"No. All I could say is that he wore a fancy and expensive suit."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Nv563zR4r
"I wonder who he is. Maybe he is some rich tycoon or something."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsZ3mMpxIw
"That's what I thought too." I gave Christine a smile.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6zgnvky05
"I bet he is good 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHzBTBOafC
looking too. I still wonder why Zoey left like that without telling 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCaJ9oCUl29
anyone. Do you think she really did all that just because the stranger 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdVXjEg9sL
told her to?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMhXmrpZXGf
"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?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqnQ0glXJc
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."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7iuvb3Twhe
"You said so yourself, Christine. There is no other explanation. He might have blackmailed her or something."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYlrHlCsnp4
"Okay, but blackmailed her with what?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1pa09IBhBE
"That we have to find out."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡirOf2tGfJv
I was just about to grab my phone and check out if I had any messages when Zoey came in the room.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKmM9uFmPAG
"Oh. Has GD left already?" Christine asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjXheOMyT6p
"Ya. He left," Zoey replied. I heard a bit of sadness in her voice.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3OcsrDUMBB
"Are you okay? You don't look alright," I said.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qihhMLTm1
"I'm fine. G-Dragon and I talked about something serious."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZVdSFYvtA
Oh my. Had he told her 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6DE3vskyn
about what we had discussed earlier at the park? As much as I knew it 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWuysyI7axH
was going to hurt Zoey, it was for the best. Besides, she was going to 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1te2CWZktc
find someone way better than G-Dragon. Hopefully, even me.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLv4RFx0Zdk
"What did you talk about?" I asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwFLi2dWFyp
"He was just pissed that1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFB8FvEoIi
I left like that," Zoey answered. "He thought maybe he said something 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuzidXfMfPH
that might have upset me or something."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7nQ5laWGQ
"Oh." That wasn't what I was expecting. "Well, I had asked him earlier if he had said something that might have upset you."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfYkKmfmw6
"But he didn't."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU3WjPh83s3
"I see why Sam asked," 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzmIlpFNSFS
said Christine. "When someone gets you so upset, you run away. You've 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYoPXhPXXf
done that many times before back home during our school days, you know?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18uB1Xwfme
"Ya I know. Forget about it." Zoey waved her hand in annoyance. "What's happened has happened."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxLlY6uXRL8
And I hope it will never1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ20CtV4ONRT
happen again, but this guy in the suit still worried me. Until I know 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXzd9vQ2Yif
who he is, I wasn't going to pretend that the worst has passed when it 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡku57DE3Cwj
was yet to come at any moment.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvoHactM6Uw
The next thing I knew, the door to our room flew open and Lee walked in.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmmo8DTTU4L
"Lee!" the three of us exclaimed in excitement.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5sC4on77u
"Wow! Did you guys miss me?" Lee asked with a smile on her face.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0FqxUdLKE
"Ya, we did," said Zoey, putting her arm over Lee's shoulders.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyEyys9gTgw
"Well, I missed you too," said Lee. "So, what happened today? I heard you never finished up on the song."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT4sIRHWkxJ
Christine, Zoey and I 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwzfdUbkQP
shook our heads and talked randomly at the same time, saying nothing 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxe0OmoU4V
really happened. Lee knew something was up and even if it could clearly 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCvoK7mbTIU
show on her face, she didn't push us. She just smiled.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSVj4RyIkg
"Well, you'll tell me later," said Lee. "Collins and I were just....."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDIxkepfugp
"Collins is here!" Zoey's face went white like a sheet.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjtym3X082G
"Yes, he is," said Lee 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQ9hnoiSB1
with a wicked smile. "Now if you don't want to get into trouble, I 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdkEZRob2U
suggest you go on your bed and cry out that you still aren't feeling 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqq9YZFpXj
well."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡai4jegBQkV
Christine and I almost burst out laughing. Zoey frowned.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2HeT8qQPj
"Ha, ha, very funny," said Zoey as she went over to her bed and sat down.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPcgEfWdahl
"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."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVR4ZwU3uZV
"Us?" I asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEfmdzzLQ4G
"Ya, the letter on the package was directed to The Toxins. It's with Collins in the lounge."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdApbRkJEuZ
Christine and I rushed 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kBeCxK2zh
out of the room leaving Zoey with Lee. She had to pretend she was still 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdtrxg8c3z
not feeling well. We found Collins in the lounge with the package in his1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3NDoiAAKW
hand.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxWQjztDrSO
"Hey, Collins," I said. "What's that?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoszEtKMj1m
"This came in for you guys," said Collins. "And with a letter too."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMlP0XCUoA
"Did I hear there is something for us?" Daniel asked as he and Mike came in the lounge.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99R68NV7zl
"Ya. Here you go." Collins gave me the package.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1SrmME7Nm
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.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6gp1WntN9E
I took the letter and 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYTSwfc6k2b
gave the package for Christine to hold and opened the envelope to remove1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAN7crD6oY2
a letter. I unfolded the letter and I read it out loud:1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8hK8w07Xm
"Hope you're all okay. Just wanted to say I'm your biggest fan. With lots of love."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ23o704lsHV
"That's it?" Mike asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpc7i8cVQaY
"Ya, that's pretty much it," I said, looking behind the letter but there was nothing. "No name at all."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0NwuDQVWU
"Did you see anyone who sent this?" Daniel asked Collins.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNZtf70ikR
"All that the 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE8fdwB3CMs
receptionist told us was that some young man in a suit gave it to her 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk0A8ingKfC
and she should give either you guys or us when we came by the lobby."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhcWy4Jdgp
My eyes went wide and my1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqfYpRQHZJ
heart pace quickened. Did Collins just say a young man in a suit? Maybe1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDarSJ42vLm
I heard wrong and needed some clarification.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Ab95F9tjJ
"A young man in a suit?" Mike asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMtD8g071T
"Ya. Do you perhaps know him?" Collins asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5ctiVW4ir
"Huh, no," said Christine, shaking her head.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg8zyxt3UcY
"Oh. For a moment there, you guys looked a little frightened," said Collins. "I thought you might know him."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2tNcbfJnCl
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?1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5CiYKX5pGn
"Open it, Christine," said Daniel.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ73P3gLbRXk
Christine threw Daniel 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCfwwSg2Rpv
an angry glance. She obviously didn't want to open it and I knew what 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhf8mpCvb9
she was thinking. What if there was a bomb inside? Or maybe something to1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIungNUJ8xz
threaten or blackmail us? You could only think of the worst from a 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOu3qdSS6G6
person you barely even knew.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKcqVP3BYt7
"Let me," I said as I took the package from Christine and I sat down on the couch with the package on my lap.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡliStwRIW25
Collins was watching us for a second and then left the lounge. I sighed in relief and so did the others.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0WlE8REfm2
"I thought he would never leave," Mike whispered after we heard the door to Collins' room open and close.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfAXd04qtzh
"Can you check if he is really in his room?" I asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0mO5eTyNQc
Mike went in the hall and came back seconds later. "He is in the room."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYIXXcHNWlG
"I'm really nervous," said Christine. "What is in there?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRqf0gkE5g4
"I don't know," said Daniel. "I hope it is nothing that could kill us."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt2SCcjlKZD
Mike hit Daniel at the back of his head and Daniel whined in pain.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARrenc1EhU
"Don't say that," said Mike. "I don't want to die soon."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQIziyBv27
"Guys, calm down," I said. "Let's just open this thing and see what's in it."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujwhsdqq54
"Okay, but take your 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF2Bngh03lE
time," said Christine. "If there is a bomb in there, I want to say my 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOyxCTzU9Xf
last prayers before I leave this earth."1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV40NGmFXdY
I rolled my eyes but I 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPG3gGnj3z
was as scared as the rest of them. If we were to make out of this alive,1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05EmcE5pBl
I was going to kill Zoey myself for dragging us into this mess.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3tV9US80x
I started to unwrap the package. It was a white box.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW2Zo7QPtJ1
The other three couldn't1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHxE7RbCcz
stop staring at the box and I needed to end this paranoia once and for 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDggh9v0s6B
all. I quickly removed the lid without thinking that there might be 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkpQs14MpJP
something dangerous in the box. The others even covered their faces. But1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTM6zUVpv2
nothing happened.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA2FMwHwkjp
"What the....?" I looked in the box and what I saw, shocked me completely.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQLL0XzMfO
"What is it?" Christine asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsJNJMT9QRz
I looked up at the 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnoVTAclnBI
others and they bended over to see what was in the box. Their jaws 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxZGPC4VO4g
dropped almost at the same time and we looked at each other.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNworksNNG
"This is just ridiculous," I said as I shook my head.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPAHaWrp7k
Christine, Mike and Daniel suddenly burst out laughing.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC6uEoF0te2
Zoey and Lee came rushing into the lounge.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3BpZ21ITEE
"Hey? What's going on?" Zoey asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCfcQX84dfN
No one answered. I was too speechless to say anything and the rest were still laughing.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM3cmBcuxSi
"What is in the package, Sam?" Lee asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ipDsozx4u
I soon removed a little cute brown teddy bear and held it up for Zoey and Lee to see.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡglpcnhlT79
"Huh? You're laughing all because of a teddy bear?" Zoey looked at the others, wondering if they were okay in the head.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYf0w78Oijq
"Oh, my goodness, Zoey," said Christine trying to catch her breath with tears in her eyes. "Can't you see it?"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsWsHmqaMaP
"See what?" Zoey and Lee asked the same time.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3s1HEcrsUk
"The...the...suit!" Mike laughed even more, pointing at the teddy bear.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7NpJ8MjqbJ
It was then that Zoey 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvdONs6DmIW
looked at the bear in my hand and recognised that the tiny teddy bear 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsx3Hox9C1h
wore a tiny black suit with a tiny black tie. Zoey looked like she was 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsONIedpMpi
about to get sick. Looked like she already figured out it was the1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSaoSEkJemA
stranger who she was with today that sent it.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4i8N79xUYA
"Guys, what am I missing here?" Lee asked.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUzXfRKwX4t
"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.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGrF1R7mbZm
The other three continued to laugh when they saw Zoey take the bear. Lee looked as confused as ever.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbS86tWmWnZ
"And here I thought it was a bomb," said Daniel, wiping away the tears in his eyes.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpyWu1qZWBd
"Ya. But it just turned out to be a bear in a suit," said Christine. "A harmless bear!"1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKSxEPHWix
This time, they laughed 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHtDnmydXO
even louder and I couldn't help but start laughing too. A minute ago, we1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT0GQJfDb5X
had feared for our lives and it was for no good reason. I saw the 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhNJvQ8jzEF
reason to laugh along as well. Who knows what the future might hold? You1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBVsyXyNJn
could die at any given day. We were just glad to be alive and laughing.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXDlrmH7GRX
"Stop it, guys," said Zoey with a frown. "This isn't funny." Lee just shook her head in disbelief.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgCGiyLNNA7
"You brought this on yourself, not us," said Mike.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9u8fqVB0oL
"What's with all the laughing?" Collins asked as he came into the lounge.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xXyjFCY12
Zoey held up the bear 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhqzrzGANB
for Collins to see. It was such a funny site given that Zoey looked like1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8yBinFTUET
she was about to cry and she held the bear's little arm in between her 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6GSJtYjvWA
fingers that it was dangling in midair. That sent us into another wave 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlNCwiKA2Ut
of laughter. This time, Mike and Christine were on the floor and Daniel 1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWp2u1lx01y
fell right beside me on the couch. I laughed so hard my stomach ached.1057Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmKPfIhl3Hd
And surprisingly, Collins laughed too.
