Have you ever been awake1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMyVN02bNp
for so long in your bed with no thought or sign of sleep and your heart1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXoFLODzUlP
isn't at peace because you're afraid of what's going to happen as the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8YqbCXUA2
day goes on?1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIUWkAQrAi
That's how I felt right at this moment.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSRX28e9dCZ
I tossed in my bed, 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRdeCYDwi9
turning to the side and looking towards the curtain. There was still no 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBd2i8xYuyA
sign of the sun coming up and I was getting frustrated. I wished the sun1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFD3XHYoAn
could come up so that I could meet my end already.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcIrtM4IEOI
I quickly sat up and went for my phone on the drawer close to my bed. I checked the time. It was only 4 AM.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhzzkakVwz8
I fell back on my bed, 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzWnLN86rAv
the back of my head hitting the pillows real hard. I clenched my teeth 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaC1Dpd3YBs
in irritation. Sunrise felt like forever and I was already tired of 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBk4VxSryo
sleeping. This had been the third time that I had to wake up and only 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpgiTztBGEd
realise that I had only slept for a few minutes. I wish I could sleep 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslFPfCL20p
till sunrise, but waking up three times meant I was too bothered in my 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRoY09jFqfE
mind even to dream.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOoS7YRCzi0
I turned to my other side where my stuffed panda lay beside me and I cuddled it in my arms.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhsTlEKN3F
How I wish I could fall 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIc5ut6zZmU
asleep. I admired Zoey whom I could hear snoring slightly in her sleep. I1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0XBrWhIj4Q
stared up at the dark ceiling trying to picture things in my mind but I1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5EwCPkkAFj
couldn't. Even my imagination wasn't working.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVfnleWOlq
I sighed as I looked at the panda. I couldn't stop thinking of what I was going to do today, especially with G-Dragon and Zoey.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlT4IFrf0nH
I knew I now had to face1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI91b9p6iB3
the music. And even though we had quite a hectic day yesterday, Zoey 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfdZD4QYKO
hadn't given up on me about what happened with G-Dragon and me. And even1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCaPhMFQAt7
though she was tired when we got back, she still hadn't stopped 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwZvkN2Pmc
bothering me until she finally gave up and went straight to bed.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4oFUdR8ox
I knew her persistence 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡChbJAqPbBC
was far from over and I had to prepare myself for more of it today. I 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiNZk8e4ozf
know Zoey must be very worried about me, but I was more worried about 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8YwdJtdiep
her if I had to tell her the truth.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTlqrdVhHQ
I know sometimes we 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrOg2g3znX1
people lie to prevent the others we love and care about from getting 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2VYlwcNnF
hurt. But there will come a point in time when you can't keep it to 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJKBftsNwub
yourself any longer because the guilt will eat you up inside. Sadly, I 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTf4XqRKM2b
had now reached that point.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8F5CfsZFwA
I sighed again as I 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwtJRR7Azil
turned again to the other side, taking the panda in my arms with me. 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡceYr4IrDtu
What wrong did I ever do to be in the position I was in right now?1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnxszCqloz
If it came to G-Dragon, 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Ee9V2rr69
he was going to be one person who will be difficult to talk to. I know I1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDuXNErIma
betrayed his trust, and trying to convince him was going to be a whole 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdx1qzWsPLf
lot harder.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhPYR5FsC4
How was I going to tell 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡexm0uzkMjF
him that yes, Daesung and I did kiss, but all of that happened due to a 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKAd9LSzdI
completely different story? I know how bad he must be feeling and if I 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Zldau3gKZ
was in his shoes, I probably wouldn't believe anything I would say 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQUmzbHXog
either.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMmFX4LbkQN
I kicked out the bed 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3YYsPXc4c
covers and got up from the bed. And taking Mr Panda with me and my 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzKU17k39as
phone, I slipped my feet into my bed slippers and walked out of the room1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ZTZeVWKLX
in my purple pyjamas.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI61wleI7IG
I went straight for the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWKfhn9jby
dark, empty lounge and I turned on the lights. I went to sit on the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJkwJ0RH4X6
comfortable couch and with my feet up and folded with Mr Panda in my 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTLt2zoqR5K
arms, I unlocked my phone and went straight to my contacts and called my1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOv7sgfeQM6
mum.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZg1vUTnHz
Hopefully, I was calling1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhOboKNuph1
her at the right time. I wasn't really sure what time it would be back 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ254JH76iLA
home in the U.S. I was too bothered to even try and figure out all this 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjWQHluP3x
time zones nonsense. I just had to talk to someone. And why not my mum?1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKwJaUdTkyq
I put the phone to my ear hoping she would pick up. I just hope she wasn't busy at work or something.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrNnEjFWlCQ
She finally picked up the phone on the fourth ring.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJVsOziGtf
"Hello, Sam?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGmPw8cPIwH
"Hi, mum."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLuWlj0wNv
"Sam, how are you, dear?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN6Q7BKIt2H
"I'm good. How are you? Are you at work?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7keQPQyHw
"Yes, I am, sweetie. I 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKtOLd15Sx
am just looking at photos online on the computer. A friend of mine just 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGzOypXrC9
told me you guys went out bowling with BigBang."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qTyDS3Iec
"Ah.." I scratched my head. "We did, mum. And we had fun."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDr9T472Yd1
"Ya, I can see you guys 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6bZx8NEXct
smiling and laughing on the photos." I could hear clicking in the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlxoNaFgfiB
background and that confirmed that she was tapping away on the mouse of 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW5HBvi4V95
her computer as she looked at the pictures.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPRdLv4ray
"So, was it more like a competition?" she asked. "It's says here that you guys won."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEYqjX3Myba
"It was mum. We won," I said with a smile. "You should have seen what happened. It was awesome."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhW1Ev7VsGN
"I'll check out the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAM4U5qdo5i
videos later on and see everything for myself, dear," I could hear my 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUUw7JeMWP7
mum clicking quickly on the mouse. "Now tell me. What's bothering you? 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1WmlXNC4J
Why aren't you asleep?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvF3mELCuHK
I raised an eyebrow. "You know what time it is here?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeiUPQItYN7
"I'm your mother, Sam. Of course I know what time it is."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZpK0KVqqKd
I could imagine my mum 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1voYh4H2G
with a stern look on her face as she said that. If we weren't talking on1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvpSbPtBDEf
the phone and I was standing in front of her, she probably would have 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtOl3IsZRuL
her arms folded.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzcsHzapYzi
"I know its way too early in the morning for you to be awake right now," she continued. "What's up?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFWEa24yDS
"I feel my whole life has been nothing but a lie, mum," I said as I tugged at Mr Panda's ears.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgh0urEkUPE
"Your name is Samantha Glasson and you're a famous pop star. That my child, is not a lie."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYpJfDMvCvR
"Mum, you know what I mean when I say that."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuvyrKklE7h
She sighed. "What did you lie about this time?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc80gZmHgzF
"I've lied way too much in my life, but this time, I think I'm in a really big mess that I can't seem to get out of."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVCe06i6Do
"Tell me. I've all the time to listen."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXN7UetJAn8
"I've been lying to Zoey1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8UD5ur9RjB
and everyone else about G-Dragon and I, and I don't now how to tell 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡswl74pKH4i
them, especially Zoey since she likes G-Dragon so much. It would crush 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDflFsrBUUB
her if she finds out G-Dragon likes me and not her."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXHVunDeLhP
"I thought you girls weren't supposed to date any one of those guys."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0TasAXZxfs
My eyebrows shot up in surprise. "Wow. Collins really does tell you everything, does he?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcuYJBBAxJM
"Whatever he tells you, we as parents have to know too. I hope Zoey's mum isn't going to freak when she finds out."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJa98uI7hY
"Trust me, mum, Collins 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe71nM8l8gE
has no clue with what's going on in our private circle and I suggest 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLdSS3gBJB0
that you shouldn't say a word either."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmpfUNts2Ux
"Is that a threat?" I imagined my mum's eyebrow raised.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlV0PIclO7g
"You know I can never 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0fM6b68jiM
threaten you, mum. It's just for now until we come back home. It's a 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomvSLOmAS5
matter of life and death. I've no choice."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV79T1T2aqf
"I know. But why does Zoey like him?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAzmWApP5Rc
"Knowing Zoey, you must know by now the kind of guy she would fall for, mum."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvof1oB0oPF
"True. But how come she likes him but he likes you? Don't tell me you also like him too."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7dVhBODUcu
"Well....." I hesitated, trying to figure out what to say next.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIfTDDeC96m
"Samantha Glasson," my mum's voice sounded stern now. "Tell me the truth."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7D6i1Gbwcy
I sighed. "I also like him, mum."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2UHJmk8HHl
There was silence at the other end. Until....1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxYzviwOlN
"WHAT!"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm5BXfTA58P
"Mum, calm down. It's not what you think."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqmJTutiJ2
"Then what is it? The 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbj6h2yBOZM
way I'm seeing it, you also like him and you feel guilty because you 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfgFoJlwkdC
feel like you're betraying your best friend."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbg6a3cohEq
"It was like that at 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMWzH2o3tc
first. I really do like G-Dragon but I'm learning to like him as a close1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3HRO8gwzh
friend because I know how Zoey likes him and because of Collins' 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfLlV112ZM
'golden rule'." I put "golden rule" in quotation marks with my remaining1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCsHV7emDO
fingers.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN877kWAlVC
"What do you mean it was like that at first?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhLkQXgpKj
"I like G-Dragon, but he isn't the only one."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHrUFBB9ZnF
"Don't tell me you like someone else from the same group too."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYlCORG3ZHJ
I closed my eyes as I winced. "Yes, mum."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Q0brCsg1z
She didn't say a word. I wondered what she was thinking right now.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbiabacM8QR
"You're really in one hell of a mess, dear."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoN9kLKW2Tz
"And that's not the worst part."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUziZJyErjv
I told her what happened1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsR6CWpe3ny
the day Zoey went missing, making sure I didn't mention the stranger in1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhAIbO9b0S
the suit. I talked about what G-Dragon and I had talked about in the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKwiEEOLEQD
park and what we agreed upon. Then I told her what happened with Daesung1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4joeKLdvy1
and the kiss.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGABdwo6MAy
"You kissed?" my mum sounded surprised.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqJ4U0U9g7
"Ssh, and listen."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWIycNNlFM
I told her that G-Dragon and Zoey saw us but they didn't witness the kiss. And I told her what happened afterwards.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPoQOBSQjho
"You're in a real mess, Sam. You now have two people to tell the truth to."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2wn0M3kiJ6
"If it's not Zoey and G-Dragon, then it's the entire group."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN95Jcf9HYa
"I know. But you can't lie forever now, can you?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTOKmktLEs
I thought of what she said. "You're right. We all deserve to know the truth someday."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlW4dth7jF
"Are you scared?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtm2cj3umMO
"I am. Maybe that's why I can't fall asleep." I hugged Mr Panda close to me.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlUp2hylLaj
"It's okay to be scared, sweetie. And it's good that you decided to come out clean."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDl2vyeWQjm
"I don't want people getting hurt because of me." I could now feel tears coming up in my eyes.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlgFIGToKZT
"We all get hurt at some1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWZYq4dMDG
point in our lives, sweetie. That's why there is a time for everything.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlzUz4K7tiU
Just wait and see. After the storm, everything will be back to the way 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡziJrczaHZ4
it was and everyone will forget about it. Besides, no one can stay mad 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUw7r1jhT8j
at you forever, Sam. Not even me."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQMLDSJhf5b
I smiled as a tear ran down my cheek and I quickly wiped it away.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZuRiuurab
"Thanks, mum." I sniffed.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLo7Tzzuj7
"Don't cry, okay? You're1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgIofkgPxtl
a brave girl. Now, do me a favour and get a few minutes of sleep. You 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbFaMu2EgW
will need all the rest you can get."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXnnnV1ndR
"Yes, mum. I will."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hTnxA9sQ2
"Bye, Sam. Tell me what happens, okay?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoiITP634kM
"Okay. Bye."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRi2u0Eb5XM
I hang up and I quickly 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7TeqnQQudL
got up from the couch with Mr Panda and went back in the room, straight 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwiYbMe2vBa
into the bed covers. I fell asleep in an instant with Mr Panda in my 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYlUUQzbtI
arms.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYrbvFhzuY
It must have been some 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo3TIN7pxtN
time around 7:40 when I finally woke up. The sun rays shone brightly 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFMlUDUVf0
into the room that I had to shield my eyes with my hand from the light.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxeOdzEff7s
"Wakey! Wakey!" Zoey came over and sat next to me.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1PZl98E0Hm
"Mmmm." I murmered as I turned around and covered my head with a blanket. "Leave me alone."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDQYAAk2Qo
"You've to get up, Sam. We have a big day ahead of us."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxEdCJdtQBx
"Isn't it a Sunday today?" I asked as I removed the blanket from my head.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOZMLBjl2i
"Sadly, it isn't, my 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9lK1g6OSDz
dear kitty," said Zoey as she placed her hand on my head. "Looks like 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2EKZvPHaN
you weren't the only one praying for it to be a Sunday."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYM7bDkioaG
"Okay." I muttered as I sat up on my bed and rubbed away the sleep in my eyes.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7bJWANePT
"You know you have a lot of explaining to do, right?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEe9bCNqkpB
I yawned, then sighed. "I know. You don't have to tell me."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMEj2V01GJ
"So, start talking right now."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4TGKwXOa9s
I looked at Zoey with wide eyes. "You want to talk now?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaEi89S0pyB
"Ya. I'm still really worried about you."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡie1AXf29k7
Looks like I had no choice. This was it. Time to tell the truth.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxo6kwVmBt
"What I'm about to tell you, is going to crush you completely, Zoey."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0XMTxXQcQ
Zoey turned to look at me with a serious look on her face. "What are you saying, Sam? Is it that serious?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdXygIXnXNf
"It really is, and I feel bad that I have to tell you."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzc0XWn0lhr
I hesitated as I looked down at my hands and played with my fingers. Zoey put her hand over mine and I looked at her.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtU2YR7jY3i
"Just tell me, Sam. Even if it's going to hurt."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFvexRp1xm
I closed my eyes bracing myself for impact. My heart was pounding so hard.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFg2LtPKzwf
"It's about G-Dragon and I," I said. "I'm sorry to say this but...."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHkQl5i1c5
"You like him, don't you?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbj1atOdCH
I opened my eyes in shock. That wasn't supposed to happen. And what made Zoey say all that?1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA60KHWqABn
"I..uh...no, that's not it."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLBz54KsEn
Zoey laughed. "Don't worry, Sam. I know how much you also like him. I'm not mad."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNj5AmWhO2y
"Zoey, that wasn't what I...."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5DpFQwVRgP
"Expected from me?" Zoey1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG8DrRW1YjR
grinned as she flipped her hair to the side. "I know, you're surprised.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPl4KLyM99
I like him, you like him, the whole world likes him."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkZqrMaSJ2
"Zoey, I..." Zoey placed her index finger on my lips to keep me from talking further.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2PQHd6jTp
"I know you feel guilty 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Tktshr8yT
that you like him because I do too. Don't worry about it, because I know1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkdYX9aaZ9
that you wouldn't try to steal him away from me."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1S2MIbywgl
I gulped. What was I going to tell her now? How was I going to her that G-Dragon liked me and not her?1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXI4N7SCkpS
"Aren't you worried that G-Dragon might just like someone else and not you?" I asked.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99xkWyPNSG
Zoey shrugged as she was deep in thought. "I haven't thought of it that way. I know that he only has eyes for me."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvNs36KGfy
I wanted to slap my 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3FEPcdeOA
forehead in frustration but I gave Zoey a weird look instead. I couldn't1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7ou4kBhGY
blame her when you were blindly in love. But I had to stop this before 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLsWgVzcCrk
it gets out of hand.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡee5EjzteQi
"Zoey, listen to me," I 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLe9aOnK3jb
said as I looked at her in the eye. "I admit that I like G-Dragon, but 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPapUE80Pi
not in the way you think. You on the other hand, need to know that...."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEpjSslknRD
I paused. That was odd. 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4wgKIG2vIJ
The words were spilling out of my mouth just fine. What's happened now? I1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9IauHKkKe
felt someone had just cast a spell on me and now I was tongue tied.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHpf4p7ewy
Zoey looked at me, irritated that I had stopped talking. "What do I need to know?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWoLG8dAec
What was wrong with me? I1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPmIjh0MZw8
had so much confidence when I was talking just now and I still do. But 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGOTfX30yY
now, I couldn't say anything. I opened my mouth to speak, but still 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHvn4qgao5X
nothing came out. Zoey shook her head.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsuQsIKnST0
"You're weird, Sam," 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGp7AjazsU
Zoey stood up from my bed and went straight for the bathroom. "When you 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJeyd3HT56K
finally have the courage to tell me what you wanted to say, I'll be 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4hoKL1quE
waiting."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZx9gWNOG3W
Zoey closed the door and1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDYZvQIyJL
I heard the shower tap turn on. Oh no! I blew it this time and that 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡooZe91Yz7S
just proves that telling her the truth was going to be a whole lot 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcCKLj4gPu
harder than I thought.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPmZ6CCRKw6
At least Zoey knew that I once liked G-Dragon, that's if she really took what I said seriously.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmsVbNrn0vc
This was all so messed up and I felt like I was going nuts.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡByvAFDv3t7
I stood up from my bed 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdadJqqBqaa
and started to pace up and down, thinking. What happened to me a few 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkfDp4rXFq3
minutes ago? Why couldn't I tell Zoey the truth? Well, half of it, which1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcEwS12ofmq
is the most important part.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWa0dEhEFg
"It's not your portion to say anything to Zoey. And you know it."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPeVk8hMRj
Whatever my conscious 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXIqAjRTjwn
was saying inside my head was true. G-Dragon did say that he will end 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4gLnwMDKSi
things with Zoey and tell her the truth. Was that why I was tongue tied 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwBuN1W2pG
and I couldn't say anything? I had no any other reason as to why.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvaPPlPuegL
If that was the case, 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP5p7Lcq2AP
then G-Dragon better do it fast. The earlier it was, the better. Before 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡupb3ROJfRP
Zoey really gets too much involved with him or else she would be 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrn3jg5zrKg
shattered completely.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgCGbjTw3bG
While I was trying to 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBP9PA9NTp
figure out what to do next, my phone rang and I went on the bed to reach1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkwfzFdy5wv
out for my phone that laid on top of the drawer next to the lamp.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryEqxcUmMh
When I checked the caller ID, I raised an eyebrow. An unknown number. I wonder who it was?1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hIPJEjKFb
I answered the call. "Hello?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA57TXne2Ko
"Bonjour, mademoiselle," came a deep husky voice from the phone. The man had a French accent.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPi9ZWi8dNw
I held my breath. That 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE57DMhztXz
sent a chill down my spine. Who was this? Dang it! I'm supposed to be 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2pHccuXpOX
asking that question, not thinking it.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡToFdIZ9fRi
I cleared my throat. "Hello? May I know who this is?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8l0RewAra2
The man chuckled. "Who I am isn't important. What matters is that we talk."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWeY7cOfscx
"Talk? Talk about what?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoeii1NPSh
"Did you check the photo I sent you?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcVYNytmRG
"Photo? What...?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRO0mxyY1Hs
I paused when I realised the photo he was talking about. I had completely forgot about it.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZ52TsQNr7
"Oh!" I slapped my forehead. "I never downloaded it to see what it was." I raised an eyebrow. "What's the photo about?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkYzPUdBg8Z
"If you haven't seen it,1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFLTL5R9KTm
then it's best you see it for yourself. I can't tell you over the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa5aaqdTFRQ
phone. When you see it call me or text, will you, sweetheart?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyDc2FyWPV
Sweetheart? What was this guy playing at? What was the photo all about?1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGR40EHgLJP
"Are you trying to blackmail me with the photo?" I asked.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJejh9rJq4
"I wouldn't call it blackmail. But everything would be more interesting if you're involved."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO7m82UStB3
"If I'm involved? What do you mean?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbC08pFwIx8
I could soon hear the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZCIV6CupZ
person hanging up and I growled. I looked at my phone like I wanted to 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfUE4kYBqqn
break it. What was going on today? First, I had G-Dragon and Zoey to 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8N0PBjhia
handle and now, I had this stranger calling me and making things worse.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxK0V1o9QzJ
I looked back at my 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4nfPI82vr
phone and started to go straight to my messages. I checked the message I1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn1VDGHvglU
had received from the unknown man and I realised that I still hadn't 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQlDMlKzmu
downloaded the picture. I switched on my mobile data and started to 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmKf8D521i0
download the photo.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIFbRJArA5B
"Sam! Zoey!" Lee came all of the sudden into the room. She almost scared me.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYnLBst9JLq
"Goodness, Lee!" I held my chest as my heart beat fast. "There is a thing called knocking, you know?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpfgAaAqeW
"I know, I thought you guys were still asleep."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78UnegucY0
"No matter," I said. "We're all awake as you can see."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvKbqPHMle
"Okay. Get ready, we have to leave for the studio."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PFi5d02xC
I nodded and Lee left. I1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHm8ZTdp0A
went back to looking at my phone. I frowned. The internet was so slow 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLK5hkRZpa8
today. The photo hadn't finished downloading yet.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDyu60oqyV
"I'm done," said Zoey as she came out of the bathroom in her towel. "You go get ready."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPBQ04vtbK
"I just want to see something first," I said as I pointed at my phone.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKkcpSkDXU
Zoey walked up to me, took my phone and threw it on her bed.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtRQV6z0ba
"Zoey!"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYrP1ZO3Wch
"Not a word, Sam. You're1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSt6qjyb8qI
always the one telling me to get ready and be punctual, but you don't 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQn01xF4i1H
want anyone telling you anything. Just go take a shower. I wonder what's1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4zzT7Fvvg
up with you today."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUNIfTqyDzU
If only she knew. So 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMiNL3Un6b6
many things were running in my mind that I couldn't seem to focus on one1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYyfcnoRwDu
thing because something else would just pop up all of the sudden.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUM4nLdRDP
I went to the bathroom 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVTION6bWYr
and locked the door behind me. Before I could undress and get into the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFnVsuuuRsr
shower, I went over to the mirror above the sink and looked at my own 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYd9yoqbuhK
reflection.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG3PejcDT9W
I looked like I hadn't 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4fpaNdua5i
had sleep in days with all the dark circles underneath my eyes. I was 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡESJCk2FMzx
deeply troubled, that's for sure. My problems just got increased by one 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK59kQmqSXJ
if not by two.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUpS4s7bu8
G-Dragon and Zoey were 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSKIuk2Kd0
my main problem to tackle today. And all of the sudden, an unknown 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp3Vi3xWidt
stranger calls and tells me about the photo which I had no idea or clue 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTS0CcTAEHY
about. And why he sent it to me was the most confusing part. If he 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIG5KdhZ9am
wasn't blackmailing me, then what was this charade about?1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4t8bV6IgWf
After I took a quick 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvi8YthlCE
shower, I quickly went back in the room and I went straight for my phone1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBqu6f4X60
on Zoey's bed. Zoey had already dressed up and she went past me into 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNGMgeUQOR
the bathroom to get her makeup done.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTUN1W5iZs5
I unlocked my phone. I 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ACkofH1tQ
was pretty anxious about the photo that even my hands were shaking. The 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLsIHqULA7
photo must be done downloading by now.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUJIVgO8lw
Just as I unlocked the phone, it vibrated. Someone was calling me. Oh no! What now?1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6RRhmxoL0
Seungri was calling. What could he probably want to talk to me about this early in the morning?1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ869Xp5Nc8
"Hello, Seungri?" I answered.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6eZAuF1et
"Morning, my panda," said Seungri.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsmTxTvYTte
"Morning. How was your night?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46lVW73gHB
"My night was perfect, since I dreamt of you."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNLdeb92p2
If I was myself, I would have blushed by those words. But now, I was as confused as ever and I didn't know what to say next.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrHjCpfFiiE
"Oh, wow," I said, trying to act a little surprised. I hope he bought it.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4C8s32ikiu
"I've a little something I want to give you when you get to YG."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJPOuciKCK
I smiled a little. At 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNhTA2HsAF
least out of all that was going on, Seungri managed to make me smile, 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqepnugjm2d
which was quiet peculiar because he didn't say anything funny. I was 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2myaRWX1U
already imagining another huge stuffed panda waiting for me.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3if3j8p3B
"Can't wait," I said with a little laugh. "See you."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNfKKO2Ysi
"You too."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNwiGmibPli
He cut the line and I 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB5JtzlyA0a
threw my phone on the bed. I decided to dress up first and have my 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhKhIzcEF97
breakfast, before Zoey came back in the room and start to pressurise me 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKzmcBIoU2
again. I had already pissed her enough this morning.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsIqkPFhs6j
After I dressed up and 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡprFTSRRH1x
Zoey had left for breakfast, I went in the bathroom to get my hair done 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRjZb1sDURE
and applied a bit of makeup to hide my dark circles. When I was done, I 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSWu3zPaz7
went back in the room and without a thought of making my bed, which I 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1AbG6DWSMo
always did, I wore my black pumps, grabbed my phone and went out of the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQOFQ8MZPs
room.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzcUwWC6qC5
Just as I got into the lounge, I made a bee line to the dining table. Everyone was at the table eating their breakfast.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUj7zAqkqs2
"Someone isn't themselves this morning," said Collins as he watched me approach the dining table.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtyvGPLqiHV
I knew he was talking about how late I was today. I was usually the earliest to be at the dining table.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG6YFOiBh9k
"Sorry," I said as sat down next to Lee. "I was pretty bummed up, that's why."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1BSY5mh9a
"No pressure, just eat up, we have a lot of work to do today."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsE202ZbpLF
There was a variety of breakfast options today and I decided to take some cereal, which I haven't had in a while.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQMmUByHkf
As I got the box of cereal and poured the contents in the bowl in front of me, I couldn't help feel all eyes were on me.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmB8CPUvgwa
I looked up and just as I had guessed it, all eyes were definitely on me. What had I done now? I put the box of cereal down.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0ImdnYuYo
I looked at everyone at the table and when they didn't say a word, I shrugged my shoulders.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmrKG25KSu
"What?" I asked.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY6KFqYgwV4
Mike who sat opposite me cleared his throat. "You're eating cereal."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSWHS6RXb9n
I frowned. "So?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWyrr2UQw7h
"But there is bacon and eggs with toast," said Daniel.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GDkUavsjO
I was still confused. "So?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjFb839ZwOv
"You usually don't eat cereal when there is bacon, eggs and toast," said Collins.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQEhAfZTtN
"And cereal is kind of like my thing," said Daniel.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2CLVzZUUjj
I don't know if I just hit my head or I had now landed in Crazy Town. What was wrong with just having cereal for a change?1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2VfiQAxq4y
"I don't see the harm in1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxbFWrhrfzh
eating cereal. I have oatmeal whenever I feel like it and that's still 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVFgNdSGeq
cereal," I said. "I just wanted something different for a change. Is 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb75A8JsA30
that wrong?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡei0PlxakB9
Everyone else looked at each other and then they looked back at me, shaking their heads.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3eYvcOtbS8
"Thank you," I said as I got a jug of milk and poured into the bowl. "I haven't had sweet cereal in a while and I miss it."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEtaViMnwp5
"I can see that," said 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡakLQmECkix
Zoey as she drank from her cup of coffee. I knew she was making fun of 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG5LB3EgnRT
me but I decided not to say anything.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvkeXRjDQ82
When we were done with 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlO6dCYBiO4
breakfast, we headed downstairs in the lobby and the black SUV was 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGAq0vzV3JI
waiting for us as usual. When we got in, I made sure to take the back 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ90chRKw1sj
seat with my brothers next to the window so that I would avoid people 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA1cV0OJ6Jw
looking at my phone.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK7enk1wEia
When everyone in the car1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGsgkaJBBi1
was engrossed in some conversation that I had no interest in joining in1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWzv5Lx3A8
or listening to, I decided to check my phone. The photo was done 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5T5YjX8JSn
downloading and what I saw made my mouth drop and my eyes pop.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9gaLX3B5jG
"What's wrong, Sam?" Mike who sat next to me asked.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJqE8zB0at
I quickly pressed the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq5oOr266M0
power button on the side of the phone and blacked the screen. Mike was 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9D7cbe69GC
already leaning onto my side to see what was on my phone.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWop6xYyvJK
"Nothing, just some scary video," I said.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeiNdr3iPt8
"May I see?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsf3Ed9poRt
"No. You won't be sleeping for the next two days."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEhI9E9EL2D
"I've watched horror movies before. I can handle a little scare."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1Isf9dUw1
"No can do, bro," I said as I put my phone into my purse that I had decided to carry with me.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGiA5xD0ega
Mike leaned back and folded his arms. "Whatever."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdveuiKHLr
I wish I could tell him 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhAlJ7J0nHK
and everyone else what was going on. But at the moment, I felt like 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9LDm8XY1eq
keeping everything to myself, not after what I had seen.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpPRNpAUdN
Now that I had seen the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTV37FI3ZAn
photo, I had to meet up with the stranger and talk about all this. But 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7XNyquO4Zu
where to meet the person and when was going to be a hustle. It was 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo3lwytqmSI
pretty obvious that I had to meet him alone.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJlE32AW6W
Speaking of which, I 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrGLSOedk17
still had to convince G-Dragon about telling Zoey the truth. Now how was1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOx8J9H62Ve
I going to do that given the little time I had in my hands? We had a 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBikeVbzgDK
music video to prepare for and we had to start working on the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIrG0ji0N4R
choreography today. This was hectic. And I knew that if I was pushed 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2RBrxdyxCM
further onto the edge, I would burst.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9m5PT3VDh
Time seemed so short, given that I was thinking of ways to do things today. The next thing I knew, we had finally arrived at YG.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEdyJmopCZn
My heart skipped a beat.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgXTDFJBSF
I swallowed. This was it. G-Dragon was probably with the others waiting1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKyIr47DhR3
for us inside. For a moment, I didn't want to go in. But I had no 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZ8lAvzver
choice.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8QAOGMb0HJ
As soon as I stepped out1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOC6k9yIar
of the vehicle, I took a deep breath as I looked at the entrance. I 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCCPOdIwTxS
felt like I was about to walk into hell and that frightened me.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZaaP0i0ht
"Are you okay, Sam?" Christine asked as she came to stand in front of me.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJpne2Hs2aT
"I'm fine," I said. "I just realised that I haven't really thought of any ideas for the music video."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQhpV173Pb
"You're aren't the only 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgCkDVOPvMU
one," Christine said with a smile. "Let's just hope our minds will get 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryMIZEzYwN
to work on that when we get in there."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zS5wAiN5F
I managed to put up a 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnSeXTJZm6u
smile, but I knew my mind wasn't going to be on full throttle today. How1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnJ1ulIAZ87
I wish this wasn't happening to me right now.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQNkFz7VgF
As I came into the lobby1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSIQRhackO
with Christine, we found Collins talking to the receptionist. The rest 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ566jaDPLUP
were heading towards the elevator and we joined them.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAs6MCEUymr
"You will be going up to the dance studio," Collins said as he turned to us. "The others are waiting for you there."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBfPj6TWxVq
"Okay," the others responded. I for one felt really jumpy at the moment.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxkRwi7i2L
We all got in the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMqBAXj0q7h
elevator and Mike was busy talking about some dance moves he had come up1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ02M4dVHcG
with and I wasn't really paying attention though I did get one or two 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg68qURFTV4
things.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEgDod7XNHU
We got to the dance 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6J67KnVxHw
studio while Lee and Collins decided to go upstairs to meet with Yang 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNS8Irbtv5M
Hyun-suk. We checked a few dance studios before we finally found them.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvLaliG9nPG
"Hey, guys!" Zoey greeted so enthusiastically as we came in the room.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfbvS5Xxo4j
I was too lost in 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1IAVz0pd5n
thought to even reply to the other's greetings until Seungri came up to 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0oPT7Oq1RX
me and hugged me. That brought me right back down to earth.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZs5UBqWA0
"Hey, what's wrong with you?" Seungri asked, still hugging me.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW27umpDTsn
"I'm fine," I said, as I pulled myself away.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNAkXS32oHu
"If I know you well, you look pretty occupied in that head of yours," said TOP as he walked up to us.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡERWb8OoSfD
"Tell me about it," said1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6A82GxzPsv
Zoey as she was now on the floor with Daesung standing right beside her1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCCUMIQGDrP
and she was removing her shoes. "She's been weird all morning."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySEa7T3vPm
"How weird?" Taeyang asked.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ30kNLskBV9
"Too weird," said Daniel.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhv8riHN9Td
"Cut me some slack, guys," I said. I looked at Taeyang. "They are just saying nonsense."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAZfgZPI2Si
"Says the person who was so late to wake up today," said Zoey.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhN9u5CgKSK
"And ate sweet cereal for breakfast instead of bacon, eggs and toast," said Christine.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa2kOuCu4WD
"And refused to give me her phone to check out what she was watching," said Mike.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0d4MCZW2A
I shrugged. "So? And Mike, seriously? Just over a phone?" I shook my head at my brother.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyzZSMPjGLT
"It's not like you, Sam," said Daniel. "That's all we are trying to say."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs34auUmRiK
I rubbed my forehead. "Look, guys, I'm just a little bummed out because of yesterday. Is that so wrong?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY9AGe4J7RU
"No, I think something is bothering you," said Zoey, still on the floor.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZd86G8fD7
"I'm fine. Trust me. My mind is pretty tired."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdcsYRsUpn
"Come on, guys, let's not stress her out because of this," said Daesung. "If she says she is tired, then she is."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM0MUHSkdLX
Zoey slapped Daesung's leg with her hand and Daesung looked down at her. "Don't try to defend her."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUVNXy4qQ1m
"I'm not."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Mo4avkteS
Zoey snickered at him and I knew why. She still remembered the little incident yesterday with Daesung and me.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzn2Lb3vBRN
"Where is G-Dragon?" Daniel asked.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjROlk2SbP
I looked around the room and I noticed that GD was the only group member who wasn't here.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGQN1ACtCV
"He went to get the choreographer," TOP answered.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9QqmKQckLm
"Now, Sam, about your little problem...." said Mike, turning to face me.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLh9DoAuhs
"Not now, Mike," I said as I folded my arms. "You can attack me later, just not now."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNmji4qvI4
"Not to worry, my little kitty," said Seungri who stood right behind me. "Maybe this will cheer you up."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNi8shaZLCI
Before I could turn 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6NoeTTIw8y
around to ask what he meant, I felt something settle at the top of my 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMMHLmsPln
head. My hand reached up for whatever it was.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlP6jBpv96E
"A lovely crown for the lovely queen of k-pop," said Seungri.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmZEy2rkWO
I took the crown from 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3IJDm3qUdN
the top of my head to look at it. It looked more like a tiara but it was1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEw506aUr1
big enough to be called a crown. It was silver and studded around with 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxvozP1A5lD
what looked like real diamonds. Perched in the middle surrounded by 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSRH7rQNkhM
diamonds was a sapphire stone in an oval shape.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXQdyPJFIM
"Wait, are these real diamonds?" I asked as I turned to look at Seungri with a surprised look on my face.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuzwMDEgETn
"It is," said Seungri 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBDtuD0ZoV
with a huge smile on his face. "And I know how much you value sapphire 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFYozV2tYcb
stones because it's your birth stone."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSme4jhhDWO
"Aww! Thank you so much,1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9fVRoDGFB
Seungri!" I gave him a hug and I couldn't stop smiling. Somehow, I knew1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOrwu94BLDj
he was going to brighten up my day today.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZdpyd1yTa
"So pretty, let me see," said Christine, as she came and took the crown from my hand. "Wow!"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUHRDQ6YMRw
"I want to wear it," 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxTtKdggSu
said Zoey as she got up from the floor and rushed to look at the crown. 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡagCGfmqoIV
Christine put the crown on Zoey's head.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLv1RjLGW7
"Don't I look like a 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp8loP4m5kW
true queen?" Zoey asked as she looked at her reflection through the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnlMpvpJ1m2
studio mirrors that lined up the walls of the room.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQl4jQLudQ
"You look like that evil witch in those fairy tale fantasy movies," said Mike.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQjuYhaMMlq
"Haha, very funny," Zoey said as she turned to look at Mike.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0ICZP62QG
"When did you even have the time to get it done, Seungri?" I asked, still a little surprised.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg89aCGJNjA
"I have my way of doing things just to impress you," said Seungri with a corky smile.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZiOC502R3u
"Thank you. You don't know how much you just made me smile."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2JY8DRStCf
"It can clearly show on your face." Seungri softly pinched my cheek and I blushed.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4uVs8WrWQ
"I should get my own crown," said Christine who also wore the crown and was looking at herself in the mirror.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2daTHuVQig
"May her royal majesty 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemaCZhqyaf
get her crown back?" Taeyang asked as he came behind Christine and took 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRfqI86htVL
the crown from her head. He came up to me and put the crown on my head.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm9QCfgYfR9
"Oh, hail the queen!" Taeyang chanted and I broke into a laugh, playfully hitting him on the shoulder.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIx3G6slWSf
"Stop it, will you? You're making me blush," I said, trying to cover my laugh with my hand.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qvod0MSRf
"You look just like a real queen, Sam," said TOP.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOzcba3lVB
"Thanks." I was still blushing like crazy.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Uk3HxMXWj
"Let me take a photo," said Daesung, pulling out his phone.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡETzie9iG7n
"Ya. The whole world should see the queen of k-pop," said Zoey.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnokVCilemj
"Are you really calling me that?" I asked.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡACSquDxp8d
"We did win last night, didn't we?" Zoey asked. "Of course I'm calling you that."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZPddP3I93
I rolled my eyes. "I wasn't really taking it that seriously. It was nothing but a game."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4YYApJCJ8
"A game we won. Cheer up. We are all kings and queens with you."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXK6SYYuTN5
I looked on at Zoey trying to smile as best as I could, but somehow I couldn't.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡumoQdwJgyY
She couldn't tell the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdr9WKSZC61
look on my face because she didn't even ask. Daesung went ahead and took1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXahM9papK4
pictures of me, and then we huddled together as a group to take a group1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCdQD6CyjqN
photo with me in the middle.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVP0uwFsTuD
"Hey, what's going on here?" G-Dragon asked as he came in the room.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHadvZz3FZy
"Taking photos with the queen," said Daniel.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1zUzpkYeA
"The queen?" G-Dragon looked confused until he saw the crown on top of my head. "Oh..."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGZoCGpOfR
"It's pretty, isn't it?" Zoey asked. "You should also get me one."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyfFqmZ8atS
"I can make a gold one if you want," said G-Dragon.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbsJrBW1xyX
Zoey smiled. "Even better."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrymgKhfQrB
G-Dragon turned to 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6amyJRLlO7
Taeyang. "The choreographer is going to be here any moment now. So I 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe7knhztFvi
suggest we bring out your ideas if you have any. We can start without 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡunOmnlkUTA
him and he will find us."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamtfyUHIEg
"Mike told me over the phone earlier that he had some brand ideas," said Taeyang.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0GbDeV1cyO
"Ya, I do," said Mike. "You guys just watch. I have the song in my phone so I'll play it from there."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ftetXfNZl
We all stood on one side1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGgVa61T1LB
of the room while Mike took off his jacket and got his phone to search 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQJVnA6nsU
for the track. He gave Daniel to hold the phone and when he positioned 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVMiBlo2nv
himself in the middle of the room and turned to look at us.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn4xqq4z8Ms
"So, I was thinking, 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBso4zlnP26
since G-Dragon and Zoey start the first verse, they should open up the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1kPzCkq9eh
dance floor. So, I need someone to act as Zoey so that I could show you 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lwa16wall
guys."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITMHidmvCJ
Christine came forward 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgPYOInNATd
and Mike gave her a few instructions on what to do. She nodded her head 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkmwvdPm9uk
and Mike told Daniel to press the play button on cue.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhp3rE9fcN5
With Christine and Mike 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXuW8mlLYhy
each facing opposite directions with their backs touching, the music 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6cbjiAvyby
started to play. Still not looking at each other, the two started the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxYbSm2e7W
dance with each of them taking a step forward, breaking the contact 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzDSWpkwus
between them and then like a powerful force pulling them, they dragged 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZb1b1bFwZh
themselves back and they again their backs touched.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0zfTkhSA9D
With a bit of skilful 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6j1adAdXr
footwork, they turned to face each other and with their hands, they drew1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvDaF4ppRcm
closer and then skidded away from each other with their hands in the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjRDR0ZumC
air.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsttiFcDRXR
"Then you guys will come in through the middle then make a formation in front."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoogqXIakTw
"That's pretty awesome," said Taeyang.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPse86jICp
"Very smart," said G-Dragon.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZFXcjDF0r
"Let's practise that," said Zoey taking G-Dragon's hand and taking him in the middle of the dance floor.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8gA09AKhI
"I'll take you through the moves," said Mike as he faced them.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRuJIabsJe
"Your brother is a total genius, isn't he?" TOP asked as he stood next to me.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2GY4V02QH
"Ya, he is," I said with a smile.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNBXMPsQYC4
The door soon opened and1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiiQlKU9Zqu
the person who I guessed was our choreographer walked in. We stopped 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7JJTWqtBf
what we were doing and bowed as he came further in the room.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL303TLACHN
"So, I see you guys are already getting started," said the choreographer.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡudw14SHV6Q
"Yes, we are," said Seungri.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxA9xEK3Fyt
"Okay, let me see what you have done so far."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnaBV9nK7kx
Mike and Christine 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHVtvmQ4la
stepped forward and the music playing on Mikes phone, they did the dance1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdzsDTbYLy
routine. After their hands broke apart, Mike explained how the rest of 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNR8vbxLfk2
us will come in the scene.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCAGRsB6WQ
"Mmmm," the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk39iTs0BuE
choreographer looked on at Mike as he tapped his chin. For a moment I 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXDes05WYD
thought he was going to say something bad, but he didn't.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9B82gOzti
"I like it," said the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Rh0c4HvCf
choreographer. "So far, the starting part is brilliant. I wouldn't have 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCFBY0v7xS
thought of anything better. Now let's see if Zoey and G-Dragon could 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FwZbhPyvJ
quickly work on their moves then we will come to the part when everyone 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡypikfGUTyj
comes in."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqtIx6Iglh
Zoey and G-Dragon took 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgFmhXPg44a
to the center and with Mike telling and showing them what to do, they 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMppma3YMZ
did so accordingly. After a few tries, they got the hang of it and they 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0pRU3L6uA
were perfect.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1lx7lIk3WT
"Excellent," said the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfEYUZzmITV
choreographer as he stood in front of us. "Now, when they break apart, 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAiD53Qcr2S
that's when the rest of you guys come in through the space in between 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbfSKJ8KHbh
them like a doorway. We will come in a straight line and then make a 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOaOPqDHRx4
formation in front of them."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcifCN9oHpB
We did as the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNBOjaaevfW
choreographer said and the next hour, we were practising our hearts out 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5eeSMtnUe
for the music video. We made a few mistakes here and there, but we got 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk3JL9RBY27
the hang of it.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjYKRXyQ1G
A few minutes later, 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXzBYOQ4Mu
most of us were splayed on the floor after the choreographer announced 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObdXzRLHmn
that we can take a break with some of us with our backs on the floor and1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ781ItwSPNG
staring at the ceiling. Others were seated.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZiYYMqoWb
"This is why I hate dancing," said TOP, laying opposite me staring at the ceiling.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDqyMpAGIU
I laughed, also staring 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRITPF8gHg8
at the ceiling. "I love dancing. It just makes you forget about all your1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7cQlXYcGHk
problems for a while. It's kind of like sleeping."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGkvS6aqT8Q
"Ya, true," said Christine who also had her back on the floor and laid a few feet away from me.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuwrUlwSPOx
Speaking of problems, I completely forgot about that French guy.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXVpTq1fjIQ
I quickly scrambled up 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3pJUVFiE5C
from the floor passing Mike and Taeyang who were seated on the floor and1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDWpwASQRNn
still talking about the dance moves. I went to the corner of the room 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhiiWr1xoJ0
where we had piled up our shoes and phones and my crown. I got my purse 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr1uFujZhM8
and removed my phone.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARfDAJ3nHf
I sent a message to the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡff9il4zJtN
stranger telling him that I had already seen the photo. Thinking that he1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLrmZe3lAcH
would reply later on, he repiled in an instant. That was fast. I 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk1eUYdA0NK
imagined he had been waiting for me to either call or text.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaiYq7ACoLQ
"Good. We should meet."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmydni5OC1z
Was this guy serious right now? I was really busy and meeting him didn't sound like a good idea. I texted back.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMbac5G5Ah
"I can't see you today. I'm kind of busy."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNuKdeo8YhB
"But this is a very important issue, Sam."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWv16p83Eh
Great. He was calling me by name now? How I wished I knew his.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3r0E0wJh8
I texted, "what happens if I don't meet with you today?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfVt1Ij6k0
"You're one smart 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwCXdmhuVNF
girl. I don't have to explain because you know what will happen when the1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsrHmnBYxQP
whole world sees this. It's today or never. And never comes with 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jRVgYGzfm
consequences."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFwQYOLHsgC
I growled. This guy had put me in a tight corner and I couldn't refuse.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhxJLD0uvtR
"Fine. I'll tell you when to meet when I'm done."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZxohmbgke
"That's my girl."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDIqQH1jJC
I wanted to throw up. I bet this guy was way older than me and him calling me his girl made me nauseous.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMRVxtfLOYu
As I tucked my phone 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbGls5IBgZ
back into my purse, I looked up and everyone was still resting. Luckily 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPYHu744Qhi
their eyes weren't on me. I went to lay back down with TOP when I 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsVX66Alsob
realised that Mike and Taeyang weren't the only ones engrossed in their 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjXHkgVSSz8
own conversation. G-Dragon and Zoey were too.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7NrXjCjjui
I looked at them and unlike the others, they were whispering. I wondered what they were talking about in secret.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVpKEF17b8
When they both turned to1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK5E0xaHe40
look at me, they quickly looked away again. My face turned pale. Oh, 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDpL16sNulv
no. Were they talking about me? Their look sent me weird vibes and I 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwInFe1lDON
couldn't help but feel that they were.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUS8JJl9VC
I laid back down 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFdyjZagFr
pretending that all was alright. I stared up the ceiling as I thought. 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqyla6f77lo
Could it be that Zoey was telling G-Dragon about the conversation the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgR6cGqvlFT
two of us had in our room this morning?1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2EOEVoM2rL
Yikes! If she did, then I1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1QaTDrCli0
had just made a bigger mess for myself, again. If I'm right, (hoping 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMyHbKu2Els
that I'm wrong) G-Dragon wouldn't like this at all. We agreed that he 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqor2D9dyRd
would tell Zoey everything. And just a few hours ago, I had almost told 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRjR8Xlb3I
her the whole truth. So much for trying to be honest.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoct3b5Cptl
Still in my own thoughts, the door to the studio opened. Collins, Lee and Yang Hyun-suk came in.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIGpUj7SMd
"I see you guys are bummed out," said Collins with a smirk on his face as he looked at each of us.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXvuCWPHfj
"Ya, we are," said Seungri, his back also on the floor.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj9XOyx7Uah
"Okay, guys, sit up, we have something to tell you," said Yang Hyun-suk.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEckVPNCmel
Most of us who were on lying on the floor sat up and looked on intently at our managers and Lee.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQIVvxcxtEx
"We came up with where we will be shooting the music video," said Yang Hyun-suk.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqOqlfFIOoN
"Where?" Christine and Daesung asked at the same time.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvUYkuDqki5
"Caribbean Bay," answered Collins.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Z6OBFd8Zx
"Caribbean Bay?" I asked with my eyebrow raised.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUmdJCtF9aw
"It's not the only place we would be shooting the video," said Lee, tilting her head at me.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ23bgvePoW2
"But it would be more likely that we would shoot it at Caribbean Bay?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2IUJNrZMK6
"That's right," said Yang Hyun-suk. "Do you think it's a bad idea?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMDqAYcu48
"No. It sounds great."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvcQiEtXsy3
"Well, the song is based on fun," said Zoey. "And we did have fun there."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIoELWTZh4K
"Well, not for some of us who ended up playing cop," I said, replaying in my mind what a hectic time I had that day.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ21BK92cEkn
"Haha, that was fun," said Daniel, staring off into space with a smile.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsIZWTOCrXf
"So, you finish up the choreography today and then we can start shooting the video on Monday."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbzSC3L1WyV
"But can't we meet tomorrow?" I asked. "You know, to perfect the dance and all?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Nw9Og8ABd
"I don't think people will like to meet on a Sunday," said Collins.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDMGHUE5Qn
"True," said Taeyang.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHA8veM9nE
"Okay," I said, feeling a1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfAHSjTHky4
little disappointed. That meant we had to finish up and perfect the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktkTtjJJEp
dance routine today. And I don't know what time we will be done.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcBz324agOC
"Okay, we'll leave you guys," said Yang Hyun-suk.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm1Xnlmwpil
After the three had 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbGjmd3u4tt
left, we went back to what we were doing, waiting for the choreographer 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHzniPvW2LV
to show up because he was coming in with some backup dancers.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcfsYF0QLnd
While we waited, 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZrMrOHrOEL
G-Dragon came over to me, his head hovered over my sight as I still laid1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9TRLWuaCh
down on the floor. I looked up at this face and couldn't make up the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGGaTfCYm3
expression on his face.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8IuYml3Gwe
"Sam, we need to talk," he said, as he looked down on me.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQeb7aaPaWA
He sounded serious and I1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFyuqAyt9oC
couldn't say no. I tried not to show that I was scared but I could feel1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaKossj7gX1
my body tremble. All I did was nod my head.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0SLHcEoOo
"Let's talk outside," he said and he went ahead of me out of the room.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡplnDWEDuKP
I got up from the floor 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡehjzvFbOCU
and I realised that everyone was looking at me now, obviously wondering 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ7w6ssmchP
what was going on. I ignored them and none of them asked anything as I 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60j6fa3q5X
stood up from the floor and walked out of the room.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlHQc4oMaZP
I found G-Dragon three 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnxg80nXRk
doors down the hall, obviously trying to avoid anyone from listening to 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2n0XmwaJ63
our conversation. I quickly walked up to him with his back facing me. I 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaAEZGyhbO9
stopped a few feet away from him taking extra precaution not to be too 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuwDD5xkiwo
close.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡczbsHqGBQ9
"I'm here. What do you want to talk about?" I asked.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1OEZfZAMrw
G-Dragon turned to look at me and I could see he was upset. It was good that I wasn't that close to him in the first place.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3dGSMHZka7
"It's about Zoey," he said.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsqnqJNRUeU
I gulped. "Zoey must have told you what happened this morning, didn't she?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLN2pVGLJkP
"She did," he said as he nodded his head. "What's up with you lately? Didn't we agree that I would tell her everything?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiWhoiIxWhe
"Sorry, I just.... I couldn't keep lying anymore."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2BPAaTSyO
"Really? That's all you can say?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9o22mnJwrO
"Well, it's the truth. And besides, I never told her that you liked me, because I couldn't bring myself to."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIj10vLvgmi
"But you almost had."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsc0CmBQ4zw
"Yet I couldn't."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXaYzTS053z
"Zoey is right. You're 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx4wlEtKYsn
been acting really weird today. Weird enough to tell her the truth when 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm4frkTD4PZ
you know I was supposed to do it."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3yLSTreizj
"Well, you were taking too much time and I couldn't help myself seeing the way how angry you were yesterday and now."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUyWziq6yG
"And so telling the truth would help solve my anger issue? Or are you jealous of Zoey because she is happy with me?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2rYXO9ooPC
I paused before I could say, "what?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEbdvULnnvA
"You heard me loud and 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0eQ3LpEJ2i
clear, Sam. As though kissing Daesung wasn't enough, you're now trying 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPiHmUgG7Ez
to take matters into your own hands."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQvk2gYAsr
Oh no. He knew Daesung and I kissed. I wonder how he found out because I didn't tell anyone about it. Not even Zoey.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzaNOEpxWPy
"Wait, that's not true," I said.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgHVZ5PViKZ
"Which one? You kissing Daesung or taking matters into your hands?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8N2BTT73eG
I now realised that I 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjltwggNSBE
was stuck. This time I couldn't tell if he was sure that I had kissed 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPYj4ewk3t
Daesung or he was trying to test me to see what I would say to prove his1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhiX2WFCBoF
assumption right. But there was no point in hiding now. The truth was 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbDuBhD0YU
bound to come up sooner rather than later.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjeraJiLFkK
"Aren't you going to answer? Which one of the two?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBY4UdSPXDu
I sighed. "You're being ridiculous, GD."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEgNABRxet
"But I'm not and you know it." He took a step closer. "Now answer the question. Which one?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4QN9tIAlWS
"If you want to hear it, then fine. I did kiss Daesung but it's not what you think."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn2dPrGGO3K
G-Dragon took a step 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qqrtpxNCt
back. "I knew it. You tell me you want nothing to do with me and then 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHlOx8ib20Q
you kiss my best friend who is like a brother to me!"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4n6VqRBnRc
"You wanted the truth, didn't you? You got one! But backstabbing you wasn't what happened."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhv0M4TQ9ty
"Then what did happen?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYI6oVfRPwP
"All of this is nothing 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhFQZMKtdbd
but a misunderstanding. I never went back on my word. Things just 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzjtqh40znL
happened that I myself couldn't control."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KSKN7wSWi
"Don't lie to me, Sam."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vWpnI5eiU
"You know what, I'm 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkv9s8NN9ro
trying my best here to try and tell you the truth but you're acting like1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8TRomRrSTF
a deaf person blocking my words out. I knew from the very beginning 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbuuoe2e7e
that I could never be with you nor with Daesung and I have accepted it. I1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1KK4l582UT
talked about that with him yesterday. That's why he kissed me."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8pdBjeIPNM
G-Dragon shook his head. "So you're saying that he kissed you and not that you kissed him?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZllrhdjBQ
"Yes. But I know you 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkqLNOW9Sa
won't believe me. Unlike you, at least Daesung realised and accepted it 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQGdV7ouQ6
for himself that he and I could never be together."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ehRPFa5T6
I looked at G-Dragon and I knew I hit the spot. I just hope that what I said would make him understand.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnztO2UiiCS
"The sooner you accept all this, the better it would be for all of us," I said.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMPVUHbEHe
I turned around to head 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUX3WBY9Zy
back for the studio. As I walked away, I realised that I wasn't upset or1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkUfg1mP7E
angry. I was frustrated and my problems were far from over.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9ORavevKd
When I came back in the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4gfPtlGYGU
studio, all eyes were on me as soon as I walked in. I could tell on 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf9ahsM288q
their faces that they had heard the entire conversation.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7XoBcvswh
"Sam, are you okay?" Taeyang asked.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqmLDdpR82
I didn't want to beat around the brush. "No. I'm not."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1bDRccskt
I came in further into the room and sat down on the floor, not looking at the others.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTmqMTtrSf2
"You and G-Dragon were arguing," said Zoey as she came to sit down beside me. "Would like to talk about it?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxHYfRaVIZ2
I looked at Zoey. "I'm certainly not the one to tell you what's going on."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnSyNwRzN6L
I went back to looking at the floor. My chin rested on my knees and I hugged myself, lost in thought.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGAHaSPYlBn
I heard the door open 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHnzWjCtYJW
behind me and I knew G-Dragon had come into the room. At the corner of 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQzwApnoqg
my eye, I could see Zoey turn towards the door.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKc7LHYwGUC
"Care to explain to us what's going on?" Mike asked G-Dragon. "You two argued and we could hear you guys down the hall."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQu9NgjMMIk
"It's nothing," I heard G-Dragon say.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHZ1YP2Bg0
"It's nothing? Looking at both of your faces, something did happen," said TOP.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9P2nKyJ8G
"Look guys," I said as 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VAvsY3AKJ
quickly stood up from the floor and turned to face them. "Tell me if I'm1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY9dPryV0ph
wrong, but you guys heard the entire conversation, right?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡejx9QLherg
No one said anything and they had guilty looks on their faces. That settled it.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzMvUWfjZo
"I'm sorry you had to hear all that," I said as I scratched my head. "We shouldn't have been so loud."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWCMH2ruXT0
"Why didn't you two tell us all this before?" Seungri asked.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3uTZDQ0Fz
I didn't say anything 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw82Ho112TO
and neither did G-Dragon. We looked at each other and then at the others1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFYCiBe7wJ
who were waiting for either of us to say something.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5ZELkQqcs
Before anyone could 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtbbZKveYP
break the silence, the door to the studio opened and the choreographer 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsyNkigup1E
came in with some backup dancers and pretending like nothing happened, 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2PmY5Q9VQg
we went back to practising.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbWu3FnWDW
I don't know how I 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9tRTBK1LsZ
managed to go through the entire dance session without making a mistake.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcUqXvKBDTK
Not after what happened some minutes ago. Now that everyone knows 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ChDbiuvtB
what's been going on between G-Dragon and I, it was supposed to affect 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIEX7uq8FkD
me in some way but it didn't. I felt bad, but right now I had to keep my1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkNg6tgMFXF
head in the real world and not mess things up.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCDOxD7UX5M
It was lunch time and 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6YDHcetxfx
again we took a break. We were almost done with the dance routine but I 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1KXpYScYWw
was so tired, I wondered if I would be able to meet up with the unknown 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhDT419yaTw
stranger.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ePIMuaL7G
Now that we were on a 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGVgIoa8qI
break, no one said anything to each other even after the choreographer 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0laYuTavN7
left with the backup dancers. As much as I would have loved to say 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5kb7PrANVk
something to the others concerning the argument, I couldn't. It was just1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0AcMMrB1Z
too awkward for me.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVnCKCSui6
Zoey cleared her throat first. "Mmmm, so are we going to talk about this or are we going to have lunch?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZtVGMrGi8
I looked at Zoey. "You and G-Dragon have a lot to talk about." I then turned to face G-Dragon.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdzTlq8vYd
"Sam's right, Zoey," said G-Dragon.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡisVbt6Bbwd
Zoey looked a little downcast as though she knew to expect the worst.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOXLWq0i5EE
"Well, you guys can talk if you want," said Seungri, "but I'm hungry."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQmwLTa70cZ
"Ya, me too," said Daniel.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3AW7EjJSs
"We can order a pizza," said Christine.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFynZ2Bn4E
"Good idea," said Taeyang.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb47EbQphEZ
As though they couldn't 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP76SGRDImt
stay in the room any longer, the others walked out, leaving Zoey, 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySnTZLivJO
G-Dragon and I in the room. I couldn't blame them. There was too much 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1M3si7CaxD
tension going on and I couldn't help to think it was entirely my fault.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgRMrBCD5H
A few seconds later, 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxI4tJWbgB
when I knew that the others had gone, I also left the room with my purse1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3HjRDxzax8
and crown without saying a word. Zoey and G-Dragon had a lot of talking1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0sVVvRGVwp
to do and I would come back for that later. And while the others had 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHGFCJbB6bp
plans for lunch, I had other plans of my own.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5eOpDK4uwd
As I walked down the empty hall, I called Lee and she picked up immediately.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBqCjenHvX
"Hey, Sam, why are you calling?" Lee asked.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtjiX5esDvz
"A lot has happened 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfiW1Vrwg0
today that I need to tell you, Lee," I said, keeping my voice down in 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPLUwXJZqJQ
case there were any people snooping around.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD8VXz25BJf
"What? What's happened?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpubPoC9zyM
"Everyone now knows the truth about G-Dragon and I. They heard us arguing."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcKFMXguVO2
I could hear Lee gasp and I pictured her ready to drop and faint. "For real? Oh, gosh, this is bad."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLEOhmFK7cP
"That's not the worst 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46znHgdsQs
part," I said as I found myself at the end of the hall going down a 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVnHKzTE2pT
flight of stairs. "A weird guy called me today and I need to meet him."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zzuLIEDjS
"Huh? What for? Who is this guy?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLyBv85F4DE
"Like I said, he is 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQo3cl5bcx1
weird. Something bad came up and if I don't meet him soon, a lot of us 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8YayZ1xEfa
are going to be toast especially with the press."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9NRLM5xts
"Is he blackmailing you or something?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOKdO4MkVZ
"I'm not sure if I can 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLl3khcgfVv
call it that. But if I'm affected too, then it kind of looks that way. 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY6GEYD3jNp
Do me a favour and meet me at the back of the building."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxmYXkSktPJ
Lee paused. "Why? You aren't going to meet him, are you?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBytg0ewJ1C
"I've no choice and I 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsjYLyQ7Hac
would better do it now because we are going to be here for a while until1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksZo44ES3V
we are done with the dance routine. Bring me a pair of sunglasses, a 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjQEMGZwIW
cap and a scarf."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbBc7TWB3s
"What will you need that for?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74s9cQ89Td
"Trust me," I said as stopped on the stairs. I wasn't too sure which floor I was on at the moment.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjCII54q3J
"Okay, fine. I'll see where I can get those."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLfUTJsQncJ
"Thanks, Lee. Don't tell anyone."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1pWHgHt5c
I cut the call and this 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBAsntiNLDQ
time, I ran down the stairs with a new found energy. I was tired from 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVRVrjLmODI
all the dancing but I had some reasonable ounce of energy left in me.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw97qHXfbM7
I reached the bottom of 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFonMaQ3vhj
the steps. I had reached the ground floor. There was a passage behind 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPH3czNKHC
the stairs which lead to a door. The back door, I presume. And in front 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXE3radHoN
of me was a short passage which lead to the lobby. I could hear a few 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl7Yz9VbYXY
voices that I could recognise.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdE0QHrdSbg
I went over to look, 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡos2gbNU8x9
making sure I had my back against the wall. I took a peek and I saw The 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjNvlwdnVt
Toxins and BigBang in the lobby heading out. They were going out for 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobujKajWDE
lunch instead of ordering it from here. Before I could turn around and 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKPqVANwQgW
head for the back door, I ended up hearing their conversation.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZ7qtvjuv9
"I wish Sam could have told me what was going on," said Christine.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzM6RrKsLO
"How could we have known?" Daesung asked. "Sam and I just talked about it yesterday, but she never mentioned G-Dragon."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqycUlzcuqV
"I'm just surprised that1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡddYCuFzN35
you kissed my sister," said Mike. For some reason, I was surprised that1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ32eKwJfvSl
he wasn't upset like I thought he would.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHwIiPcf90M
"Well, whatever she did that for," said Taeyang, "she will tell us eventually."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyEp09r0oU
"Should we go back for her and see if she would come with us for lunch?" TOP asked.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Y8Ya3doz0
"No, I bet she wants to be alone for a while," said Seungri.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6zmv5oZbU
"I think so too," said 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGrdqFjIoA
Daniel. "But just in case, we would order her and the others a takeout. 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6iTjTiBmG
Sometimes Sam would starve herself without even realising it."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhxDRapMaph
The next thing I knew, their voices became distant. I peeked again and I saw that they had already walked out of the lobby.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnatSHcsJIe
I was expecting them to 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFLXNgvCjx
be mad and all, but they didn't seem like they were. Maybe they were 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoPVZT2EHl9
just hiding it and they would throw all of their anger on me later on. 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCDR0PJQLQU
Who knows?1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1LoF4CuPj5
Throwing that thought 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf2cxdKNHi7
out of my head, I quickly went back down the hall, heading for the back 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJLLjZR1bQa
door. I hope it wasn't locked. I swung the door and it opened. Lucky me.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhPeN496Jok
Now I had to wait for Lee to show up.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXIA0aX4hsY
There were still more 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwvSQB7fwe
vehicles parked at the back of the building. Some of which were delivery1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhDIJ3prJ7G
trucks. I waited for Lee on the slab with my back leaning against the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxfui3RONe
wall. I could hear the sound of the vehicle's engine coming from the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcdXAg91K6
front and I knew the others were leaving until I heard the noise fade 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwCMKuyXjmO
away.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF44IYXP8fh
In what seemed like 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwFB6dK4lfq
forever, Lee appeared around the corner of the building with her 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0fm8GjzTuS
handbag. When she spotted me, she quickened her steps.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡno7aD5m04R
"It's about time," I said with my arms folded.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTHahgA8x2j
"Don't act all grumpy on me," said Lee. "So as to let you know, finding what you wanted wasn't all that easy."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQRafWmH1hF
"Okay, thanks," I said as Lee gave me her bag and I gave her my crown and purse to hold. "Hold this."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzsvFBMC1Z8
"Oh, wow!" Lee marvelled as she looked at my crown. "Who gave this to you?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkA5W1Eex5d
"Seungri," I answered as I rummaged through the bag to get the items out.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGldveBt19a
"This is so pretty. These diamonds look so real."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHrCPxHAxp6
"They are," I said as I put the blue baseball cap on.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJaRHraugq1
"So sweet of him to do this," said Lee. She looked at me. "Are they all still inside?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9DuzoyZbj0
"They have gone out for 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYj2FwCgDN2
lunch. But Zoey and G-Dragon are talking in the studio. Hopefully things1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡit6BF66kb6
will work out okay. Though I highly doubt it will."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorQozcNluJ
"Things are really bad, huh?" Lee asked with a sad expression on her face.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYsBPuGHbfL
"Ya. And they are about 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOc0Y2tbapx
to get a whole lot worse. Wish me luck." I put on the sunglasses and the1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsXSRULn5a
light scarf around my neck. Lee gave me back my purse.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFzF4kNLr4
"Okay. Tell me how everything goes," said Lee. "Want me to escort you out of the gate?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEeMpQE2tQi
"Ya, that will be a good1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWm7sD0ClKU
idea," I said. "Leaving me alone would be dangerous and who knows what 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsk987xQZy8
the guards might think when they see me."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwY4KsQKsY
Lee and I started to 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1T6jN640J
walk and we turned around the corner finding ourselves back at the front1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWiKe8QcMre
parking lot. As we were heading towards the gate, Lee started some 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFapD87gnPy
random conversation and I played along making sure not to look 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3syVPx2QWo
suspicious in front of the guards who didn't seem to be paying much 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6tjCBonhxB
attention. I made sure that they didn't notice my face.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtRsZaj7wPY
When I finally managed 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMUvm2CGQy
to get out of the gate, Lee wished me luck. I nodded my head and walked 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0l43LYmmz9
away from the YG gate and down the street.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfH6QJ4Yzxv
I had to admit, I was so1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHkOwobl8mr
scared. For one reason, I had no idea where I was going since I hadn't 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX2dyDnPQ98
fully known the place and this was the first time I had to walk around 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9iUg40pOdR
in the streets by myself. Going around alone was too dangerous for me 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡttvgQLVC5F
and I was crazy to think I would manage on my own.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Mv5Ao76U7
After walking a few 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKHvDOpFyl
blocks away from YG, I reached the crosswords and I stopped at the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9DUPvJaH5
traffic walking sign. I looked around and so far, no one had recognised 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFIxIKkStj
me under my little disguise. When the robot indicated 'walk' I crossed 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMgf2GaKNl
the road with a few people and got to the other side of the street.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpBQ7cViBmb
As I walked, passing a shoe shop, I took my phone out from my purse and called the unknown man.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTt2ny8qXG
"Ah, you finally called," said the stranger who had answered after the first ring. "I've been waiting."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCOKPAe9twQ
"Ya, I figured," I said, looking around hoping that no one noticed me but the cap hid my face1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvj4Td2S7wH
pretty well. "I've no idea where to meet you and I'm not so familiar with the place."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5tLZ7tYdU
"Not to worry, dear. I already see you. Nice disguise by the way. I can hardly tell it is you under that baseball cap."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhNaqFiYOye
I froze as I soon looked1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6Ubb0W0oc
left and right and across the street hoping to see him. But I couldn't 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWyHnDxTXZ2
spot out any French native among the midst of Koreans. Feeling a little 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡphb0glzC98
out of place, I figured I might just be the odd one around here too.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV1qMsusGSK
I heard him laugh 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBAgO0OgNpq
through the phone and I could tell he was making fun of me. "Not to 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG49nW9bHw9
worry, Sam. Be careful or you might just blow your cover."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCWQz7Ku6Hh
I gritted my teeth. "Just show yourself. Where are you?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV2eeagtAou
"I'm right here."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSeqKwT8tHu
"Right where?" I looked around and still nothing. People walked past me and I got frustrated. "Don't try play games with-"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0s0aIfS3c
My sentence was cut 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEBwWp6M2qK
short when down the road, a fancy black shiny Bugatti parked at the edge1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCn351j46y4
of the concrete slab right in front of me. I looked on with my mouth 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBgV1ysPag
agape. I have always admired fancy cars but this was one hell of a ride.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlAuJIIpN5e
A smartly dressed 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvDbo14N8Ar
looking chauffeur came out of the driver's seat and came to my side. 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrnM6XKtyM
With his white gloved hand, he opened the door to the passenger's seat.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwEo4UaoKki
"You may go in, mademoiselle," said the driver in deep French accent, as he bowed.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYxLINFd4Z
At first I was dumbfounded and I didn't know whether to run and head back to YG, or just go in and get this over with.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjcVgIVUOgx
A few heads turned my 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUysO83BrQ
way and I could only imagine what people must think of a Bugatti and a 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxEt29Iyrb
smartly dressed chauffeur waiting for me to go in. Strange, I suppose 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpneDtlqKD
and a little suspicious too.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzEJKKh4Ol
I managed to awake from 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd370GlSRc8
my slumber and got in the car before people fully start to look at me 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSoQCo9DRex
and figure out who I was. As I got in, a nice car smell wafted in the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3BZnMcLrw
air and into my nostrils. The chauffeur closed the door and went to the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSYLUAz9zb
driver's seat.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCiIaaf7AKl
"Samantha Glasson, nice to finally meet you at last," came a deep voice.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5Bi58HrrZ
With my eyes, I looked 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTWHI5WR66
at the person sitting right beside me in the passenger's seat. For a 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd45UhJjRiL
moment, I was scared. But when I looked at the man fully, my face fell.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhZ0xAFxg6
He looked to be in the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4eTVBHxPZv
same age group as me but maybe two years older. I guessed in my head 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2SQCq5S3bG
that he must be 24 or 25. He had gorgeous blue eyes like the colour of 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCHDr37sLm
the sea and brown short curly hair. His dashing lips were lifted up into1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZA2iIDo2Gt
a smile and under that navy blue suit of his, I could tell he was one 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKqkZV3uB1
who had one heck of a body.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXqj6ipxs4
I hadn't said a word and1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDneD2ETFC
the car started to drive down the road when the young man offered his 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5EQkAN0eTN
open hand. I stared at it and noticed a shiny gold Rolex on his left 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmef44liow0
wrist. Who was this guy?1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrepMCVhPv8
"Aren't we going to shake hands?" he asked.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5uh5EKXio2
I opened my mouth but 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVAVQKgLzQ
then closed it again knowing that it was pointless to argue. I took his 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAK3uv23BOn
hand and shook it, scared that I might receive a shocking zap from the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qW6NFSD9j
contact.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMjyhWwScMs
"And you must be the guy I was talking to over the phone?" I asked.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMImpmRWxJL
"Yes, a pleasure to meet1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1WkUwZ0Qv
your acquaintance." He lightly pressed his lips on the back of my palm 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVqI19ETaY
and I blushed as I slowly withdrew my hand.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpXzyPSuLg
"I'm sorry we had to 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVrIMxH5gW
meet under such awkward circumstances," he said as he leaned back in the1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTpu0ypgrQ2
fancy leathered seats. "But I needed to talk to you, and fast."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhzs2zS0kJo
I looked at him and 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6eSMIVsan
realised that all his was just too surreal. This wasn't what I was 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsO2LFLcy5n
expecting. I was expecting a man much older than me and rafia looking. 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhx25rHsAA
This guy right beside me looked like one of those handsome Greek gods we1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwmXHhm63pH
hear about in mythical tales.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67V28hM0EB
"Why are you looking at me like that?" he asked with the corner of his lips raised up to a smile.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAy9hiOJeF
"I...uh." Yikes! I was 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyU49TtNgYN
caught looking at him. I blushed and turned to face the window beside 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxNxCDOudpf
me. "Nothing. This wasn't what I was expecting."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hu6NTqIUF
There was silence and I 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxc6Woz2bCh
didn't want to look at him. He was obviously looking at me and that made1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuisVQnSXjI
me play around with my fingers because I was nervous. Then I realised 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1DXsJ9dkL6
something.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEmH0oJxEQd
"You never told me your name," I said as I looked at him. Dang it! I wasn't supposed to look at him.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJCvRw7xj2
"Oh, silly me. Where are my manners? I'm Derrick."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvIVtQoU5YB
"That's a weird name, given that you're French."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSjeE4EOuE
"I was born in the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ3gLkGZUzx
States and my parents preferred giving me this name even though they are1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpsCeVK5nbw
both French. I grew up in France almost my whole life and my parents 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPV1mUsY6b
are people who like to travel a lot for business. Building their 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoRyCMiM21Z
business empire is what's so important to them."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8whepkYU3
"I can clearly see that," I said as I wondrously looked around in the car.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhFyqANEg0d
My expression might have amused him because he chuckled. I blushed as I pushed my glasses further up my nose and folded my arms.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWrYTzELVx
"This is going to be fun," he said to himself.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9m5domrJj
I changed the topic. "About the photo, why did you want to see me?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv6POUr00iw
"Can we talk about this over lunch?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ24esHwvfU7
"Lunch?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUIdvHr2Jbo
"Yes, lunch."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8KMLTWnGQn
A moment ago, I wasn't in the mood for lunch. But now that he mentioned it, I was starving.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxOm9DTHBLT
"Lunch sounds good. But not in the open. I don't want to grab any attention."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnprNVJyzR
"Of course. I figured you would want that. Given that no one knows where you are anyway."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1CEuQKoo9p
I raised an eyebrow at 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs2JKelAS7Z
him. "You've been following me the whole time, haven't you? That's how 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4CS66htAZ
you have been able to find me on the street."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnekDklUu4x
He gave me that dashing 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI2CZ3cZW2M
smile of his. "Of course. I just had to. I knew sooner or later that we 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsC0rBZLkgC
would meet. I had to come prepared."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrtzRALXCti
"That's sounds creepy if you ask me," I said as looked out the window. "So, where are we going?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPvKcJhXZsA
"My apartment. It's much safer there."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ97Hho8adwK
"You own an apartment?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs2qjguG0zG
"Like I said, my parents travel around for world and South Korea, is one of their favourite spots."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzCThwzZfL8
"So, it's their apartment then and not yours."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4RmJzOvBP
"They have their own apartment and I have mine."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY9qFSGtNal
"Oh." I couldn't help but feel embarrassed.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKvbcY5dS6f
"Here we are now," said Derrick as he looked out of the car window on his side and followed suit.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxSKyejAyx
It was a huge apartment 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR8dNWyepmA
building kind of like the ones famous people live in. The car took a 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDf7NvXi97X
turn and went down the road to an underground parking lot.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhfNpYzs0R
After the car parked, 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdPRuTTsFF
the chauffeur quickly came out and opened the car door on Derrick's 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuVZWBWfmyF
side. Derrick came out and I followed. Before I could step out of the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyhMbaikfeO
car, Derrick held out his hand to help me out. I took his hand and I 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6NKwhr6Aj
came out of the car.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzY9N5WM96
Derrick lead the way, 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrIL1QgS2Bh
still holding my hand, to the elevator and the chauffeur stayed behind 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDFex4fM2ce
with the car as he watched us go. I couldn't help but feel that the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKg2ayUoxhv
chauffeur had been smiling at us from the time we got out of the car.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpasFkFNFS
Derrick pressed the elevator button and when they drew open, we stepped in at the same time.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡojVtvSCtSH
When the door closed, I withdrew my hand from his. He pressed the button to his floor and I felt the elevator move.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUVBGFv8llF
"So, about that photo, I need to know what's going on," I said as stared at the floor.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVtVzWbxZB
"What do you want to know?" Derrick asked. I could feel his eyes on me.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsRZ4pzAN8q
"Everything," I said as I looked at him. "But one thing I don't get is why you're involving me in all this."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtj1Z9l211D
"But don't you want to know what's going on?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH02aPXvrhk
"Well, ya, I do! You're 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwn318JHC0e
the one who sent me the photo so I'm curious. Do you know what? It was 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJzgfhC93pG
best you didn't send it to me in the first place."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHznZeprGqZ
"Why?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbLF7d0qvns
"Maybe then I wouldn't be here."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFP72Mabd3k
The elevator doors flew 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡviN2gz3Evg
open and in front of me was a lavishly looking hall. The white painted 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYoRpx2sgty
hall and the bright lighting above made the hall look angelic that if 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfcFnCrQ5r
you were to see it for yourself, you would think you had just stepped 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKrQeXhoro
into heaven.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3UwBWOcws8
I stepped out of the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBIQiXeV4dp
elevator and beautiful paintings lined up the walls. I noticed that the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzSqZxppn6
doors leading to other people's apartments were white doors with fancy 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq3eKRTOjEc
looking gold plated handles. The floor of the hall was covered with a 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXLiyj3hwN
soft red carpet.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0uwhRgue7B
"This place looks nice," I said as I walked down the hall.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE7uj5QmKvD
"I know," said Derrick as he came up behind me. "My apartment is the door at the end of the hall."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJwNSsqZGM
I looked down the hall 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEPwFqo04fI
and there stood two huge white doors. I walked up to it and just as I 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHJwJvRMAt
was about to turn and look at Derrick, the right door flew open and in 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPx764pdMo
front of me stood a smartly dressed butler. It's like he knew I was 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXHiEn64REG
coming.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84pOKHp4eJ
"Welcome, mademoiselle," said the butler as he stepped aside and and with his hand, he gestured to come in.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQpoSRdOtpm
For a moment, I hesitated. Until I felt Derrick behind me.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBru6UHPv0X
"Ladies first," said Derrick.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvHjjKryt35
I gulped and took a step into his apartment.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7rNYuwRVe
"This place is very 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2TQ60MdNF
nice," I said when I looked around the foyer and I when turned round the1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDTSoGPMDb
corner, there was lavishly looking sitting room with creamed coloured 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡez5dp9DrI9
sofas with a glass coffee table and I huge smart screen TV pinned on the1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVKoUKi50uj
wall.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9hGVgOM8T6
I looked to the other 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBL6TPF7er6
side and there was a fancy looking table with a beautuful chandelier 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYL1hIDuEs
above it. Beautiful artistic pictures filled the place and there were 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8XRT8liWz
beautiful flower vases with orchids.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbo6qPE9CAB
"I see you like 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtqN4a7eklJ
orchids," I said as I went over to the flower vase close to the sitting 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9nQ14T8Wp
area and looked at the orchids. They were fresh and lovely.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6s9qiC0T7Z
"I know you like roses," said Derrick as he stared at me.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSpz0mwhWZ
"Almost everything that celebrities like and don't like are always found on the internet." I rolled my eyes at him.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoO2xUU8EYz
"True, but I can tell what a woman likes and doesn't."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYnq6DytQnf
I gave him a smile that showed how impressed I was.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBefAmjq9y
"Lunch is ready, sir," said the butler. "Should I serve the food?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKa7rjnkUKG
"Yes, please," sad Derrick.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC2eUTRtb1P
The butler bowed and 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqVlpFa2jH1
left for the kitchen. I continued to look around and I went over by the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWndvdopu0
windows to look down at the city below. We were so high above the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLg59S3qD3
ground.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6vVsnGYef
"Is it just me or are we on the last floor of this building?" I asked.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19RXFAASw2
"We are," said Derrick who came to join me by the window. "This place is lovely, isn't it?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHCLQBWFtRb
"Ya, it surly is." I knew he meant Seoul.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡICUC8wmyGO
"Food is ready, Master Derrick," came the butler behind us.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzkDlKdM3H
"Shall we?" Derrick gestured his hand towards the dining table and I walked up to it with him following behind me.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWUE8Pts7YY
As we got to the dining 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzclLoIdul
table, Derrick pushed back a chair for me and I took my seat, removing 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFabwCeSZQ
my glasses and cap putting the glasses in my purse. I said thank you and1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8Zn2SQgun
he sat at the head of the table right next to mine.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ144QASD5lh
The butler had served 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMI3IuTUdJ
our plates on the table and just by looking at the cutlery and napkins 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡykNlzwW8r4
laid and folded neatly I couldn't help but feel I was in some kind of 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXge8hB4mbz
fancy fairytale. The table was set to perfection and the wine glasses 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXKkDgeBGB
next to the plates were spotless.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS52J76A4YP
Dishes of food were 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKp5GIcva79
lined in the middle of the table and my mouth couldn't help but water. 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ73Xg0PchXd
If I wasn't in such an elegant apartment, I would have just dug in and 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYTZsneBaJ
started to eat. I was really hungry. But for now, I had to act like a 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmMHr3jdSSK
lady.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtMBJeWUxS
The butler helped to 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1a0aC62E1e
serve the food and I didn't hesitate eating right there and then. I made1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZaKClM0MT
sure not to eat too much and take my time.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLYZ7NxcTd
"This was really good," I said, after I was done with my food.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA97goyhTPD
"France's finest traditional dishes," said Derrick with a smile.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydYuKyWVW5
"Now, about the issue at1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdbwgcYTkw6
hand," I said, wiping the corner of my mouth with a napkin as the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsqYdp9G312
butler came to take away my plate and also Derrick's.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxG164WhHoa
"Let's talk then," said Derrick.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCG07xVcox
"First of all, I need to know why you sent it to me."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1RmbmapdrI
"Because as much as you don't want to get involved, it concerns you more than you can ever imagine."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6rJCjdYM1
I shook my head as I got my purse and removed my phone. I went to the gallery and checked out the photo.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcf1vvYoPPF
"How does this have to do with me?" I asked as I showed him the photo.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2H9yqW6haz
The photo showed Zoey in1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0rpC7j0Oa
a some place that looked like a garden or a park and in front of her 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOjzdC5dEk5
stood a man I couldn't recognise. His face was hidden because his back 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5EUdD7rh4i
faced the camera and whoever had taken the photo, took it behind some 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1VhvgNVmVq
bushes so it was hard to make out who he was. But there was something 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnKEGSOWfuj
completely odd about what I saw in the photo.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5fHFuRqeOt
"I know this isn't 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgavqkX29an
really supposed to concern me," I said as Derrick looked at the photo 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZ6Ai0Jr1D
and then back at me. "Who was Zoey with?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPYGT76OxC
"That's my brother," Derrick answered.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9vUOX6EEoX
Now that was a surprise. Derrick had a brother?1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGDwpwPgE0W
"Wait? Brother?" I raised an eyebrow.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNP5b4XbE9
"Sadly, yes," said Derrick clearing his throat.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡonfnAS6uX2
I looked at the photo 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3eCTWfhxVr
again. "So, you're saying that, this happened the time Zoey went to 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZllGbfZ2v
Paris with G-Dragon and the others? And this person in the photo is your1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKEsKUM4Zr
brother?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo22zpAKnHU
I still couldn't believe it when Derrick nodded his head at me.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKwxjobF1E
"You never told me you had a brother," I said, looking at Derrick.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPHILhRE281
"We don't really get along," said Derrick.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8QP86qiKNm
"That figures," I said as I rolled my eyes. "Why?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡotuFxQsGNr
"We have been different from each other since we were kids. You can't even tell that he and I are brothers."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNrdhbc8Ufz
"So, what's do you think he wants with Zoey?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpyEp5VFJS
"I have no idea but I know it's something serious."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxNxSC7murE
"So, you're just assuming all this or what?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH9kyoe5h4g
"I know my brother very 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg1m2MPhgeJ
well. I know something is going on between the two of them. I had my 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGeTgEnIwGQ
suspicions during the Chanel fashion show."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn4STnXAt6O
I then remembered the 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUB9IJc0wen
time Zoey came back to Korea the following day after the fashion show. 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUtl6cCi11
She was acting all weird and the way she had hugged me surprised me a 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLmAKBQ08Fj
little. And so did the others. Were these guys really in trouble?1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2CQlGherwd
"Are my brothers and Christine involved in this too?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrhtgXWzMHh
"I can't be too sure. You have to ask them."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDf1arsyL0x
"But that's strange. If 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRGMFeUQb6
it's something so serious as you put it, they would have told me. I 1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH2sYTpnmlU
don't see the reason why they would hide."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTSnQJaXIEh
"If it's anything concerning my brother, I suggest you find out what's going on and fast. I don't like it."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDRE7X439W
"But what if all this isn't that serious? In fact, what makes you think your brother is that dangerous enough to hurt us?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWoORYMqfK3
Derrick leaned back on his chair as he looked at me and I waited for him to answer.1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7yBiWcAd4V
"My brother isn't one person to mess around with. He is one person who threatens when things don't go his way."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLLieTriUc4
"You think he is threatening Zoey?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUQYihuRUg
"He did visit Zoey in that café, didn't he?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkrDfR3Khr
"Wait! That was him?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTT13CD3Gvi
"Yes. I was there."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM8fk0fCAUZ
"You were there too?"1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxlZwo8DNB7
"Yes. That's when I thought you should help me out with this."1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd0WrKxEmgh
"But what if I can't?" I folded my arms1048Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXRZmwU0v7a
