Sunday was quiet and 713Please respect copyright.PENANAhjKV5l4bMm
pretty not much the same when you know that your best friend isn't 713Please respect copyright.PENANAXOzI7xqyzl
talking to you anymore. As much as I would have liked to bring up any 713Please respect copyright.PENANANYltrvwwZ8
random topic just for Zoey to talk to me, I knew she wouldn't respond or713Please respect copyright.PENANAXbZ2EtjrWy
listen. She wouldn't even stay in the same room with me.713Please respect copyright.PENANA2aFWWbJkpM
Last night, Zoey moved 713Please respect copyright.PENANAo4pjyDKs3p
out from our room and since we booked the entire floor, she went over to713Please respect copyright.PENANATvzlQy4RWy
the other room, far away from me. I couldn't blame her though and I 713Please respect copyright.PENANALPedugOaHu
didn't even try to talk her out of it. No one even bothered to try and 713Please respect copyright.PENANA56SdcKlGn9
talk to her either.713Please respect copyright.PENANAaH0reMvj2W
And so did Collins, who had no idea what was going on.713Please respect copyright.PENANAMxlSbCC6Zn
It so happened that 713Please respect copyright.PENANAA4OEz3erdK
while Zoey was moving out of our room with some of her personal 713Please respect copyright.PENANAjlYRwgPFlo
belongings, Collins appeared out of the elevator. He had asked her what 713Please respect copyright.PENANAzVYJ7c1V1Z
was going on and as usual, when Zoey is upset, she hardly talks to 713Please respect copyright.PENANAbM4YFySPfv
anyone. When Collins asked the rest of us what was going on, I told him 713Please respect copyright.PENANAfnBPmpOxWN
that Zoey and I had an argument. With that, he didn't ask any more.713Please respect copyright.PENANAUv7vNgQ5nN
Now, I was sitting 713Please respect copyright.PENANAnjsfBEFvSV
lazily on the couch in the lounge on a Sunday, trying to see anything 713Please respect copyright.PENANAP8XfDtNcQ4
interesting to watch on YouTube so as to pass time since my brothers had713Please respect copyright.PENANACqv7QEcMRo
now taken control of the TV playing Call of Duty. I did enjoy myself 713Please respect copyright.PENANA0wuthhuH4W
watching k-pop music videos with the likes of BTS, EXO and many others.713Please respect copyright.PENANAqbGTmZ4CdZ
I was lying down in a sleeping position, still watching videos when Lee came into the lounge.713Please respect copyright.PENANAB2DpcDAQPC
"Are you just going to sit there the whole day like a lazy bum?" Lee asked as she came over to me.713Please respect copyright.PENANABrLFQajfHG
"What?" I asked as I removed an earpiece from my ear. I heard her loud and clear even with my earpieces on.713Please respect copyright.PENANALLUwPP86Lg
"You heard me," said Lee looking down on me, with an annoying look on her face. "Are you going to sit here the whole day?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAacsgM1GSY0
"Uh, ya," I nodded my head and put the earpiece back in my ear.713Please respect copyright.PENANAqr6Br2GqqQ
"Get up, let's go," said Lee as she pushed my legs and they dropped from the couch to the floor.713Please respect copyright.PENANAYwqtEVOc7k
"Lee!" I whined, putting713Please respect copyright.PENANA5vYjXIbD3W
my feet back up on the couch. Daniel and Mike who were on the floor 713Please respect copyright.PENANAV9bw3L4LMR
facing the TV, turned to look at Lee and I, pausing their game.713Please respect copyright.PENANAenpUyf188h
"This isn't like you, Sam," said Lee, dropping my feet again. "You need to go out and have fun. It's Sunday."713Please respect copyright.PENANAsuQJo69z2v
"But I want to be here and watch videos on YouTube," I said as I sat upright.713Please respect copyright.PENANAnoWwBpLGJu
"No buts, Sam. We're going out whether you like it or not."713Please respect copyright.PENANAb4eUtb5HeL
"Why? I want to stay here."713Please respect copyright.PENANAZbEZxtG3Vd
"I need to go and shop 713Please respect copyright.PENANAB2DbTMJ3hf
for a few things and I think it will do you a lot of good too. Not after713Please respect copyright.PENANAM9pW0VCs9n
what happened yesterday. I can tell you need a distraction."713Please respect copyright.PENANADgwO8nDWLA
"But watching YouTube 713Please respect copyright.PENANA4Q6WKGO6Iq
videos is the perfect distraction if you ask me. Besides, you should 713Please respect copyright.PENANAPlpEUWs8ld
check out these other k-pop artists and groups. They are so awesome."713Please respect copyright.PENANAFfisXBGdvW
Lee turned to my brothers who still had their eyes on us the entire time. "Help me out here, guys. What should I do?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAP8ctlxnxO2
"I think Lee is right, 713Please respect copyright.PENANA6YTS8qAC8X
Sam," said Daniel. "We all aren't busy today and you usually like going 713Please respect copyright.PENANAEGKTE5PwLw
out on Sundays like you do back home."713Please respect copyright.PENANAkX2jsAtr4n
"But what's wrong with staying here for a while and do nothing but watch videos?" I asked, looking at my brothers.713Please respect copyright.PENANAyHmlJk5uBN
"I know you're a fan of 713Please respect copyright.PENANADdZb2rG35H
YouTube but the Sam I know wouldn't be here lazing around after what 713Please respect copyright.PENANAcisthyibKC
happened with G-Dragon and Zoey," said Mike.713Please respect copyright.PENANABACpDSshWi
"So, what you're trying to say is that I've to try and figure out what to do with those two?" I asked.713Please respect copyright.PENANALjgxQmQ0vZ
"Well, that's what 713Please respect copyright.PENANAAW1DbD3OrX
you're good at," said Daniel. "You did say you were going to try and 713Please respect copyright.PENANAUu76TZtpCG
resolve things with Zoey. You usually come up with ideas to do so."713Please respect copyright.PENANAaJkm0Rn6vS
"But that's when I decide to go out somewhere and think."713Please respect copyright.PENANAB74WCLIjPV
"That's what we are 713Please respect copyright.PENANAcLHq1QyD7x
telling you, Sam. Start thinking things out or else at the end of it 713Please respect copyright.PENANAZSTuyuy21S
all, we won't be able to make the music video. Not with Zoey acting like713Please respect copyright.PENANAAaNgtjD1Zt
the goddess of wrath and G-Dragon still mad at you."713Please respect copyright.PENANAyIFvHROxJj
Daniel's right. I had to713Please respect copyright.PENANA2lTCEpiYq7
figure out what to do with those two and me sitting here wasn't going 713Please respect copyright.PENANA9hZWfpiJE7
to solve anything. But how could I tell them that there were now other 713Please respect copyright.PENANA3LJ8MlR6Nw
problems to deal with? Like Zoey and Derrick's brother for example?713Please respect copyright.PENANAfULSRY2AyM
Unlike the others, Lee 713Please respect copyright.PENANAFzLF8ywbRu
was the only person whom I told about what happened when I left YG 713Please respect copyright.PENANAYXfvmRSAsZ
yesterday to meet with Derrick who told me what had been going on with 713Please respect copyright.PENANAHUI59GjQWr
Zoey and his brother. And right now, dealing with Derrick's brother was 713Please respect copyright.PENANAMsHA0uGxBv
going to be a lot tougher than trying to sort things out with G-Dragon 713Please respect copyright.PENANAVhcqcFqUQR
and Zoey together.713Please respect copyright.PENANAYXKfGYYAbh
I really wanted to tell 713Please respect copyright.PENANA0pV9KHYE5j
these guys what was going on. Besides, they were there with Zoey in 713Please respect copyright.PENANAP4LIO6aZim
Paris and they might have some clue as to what was really going on. But I713Please respect copyright.PENANArSAqOICdY4
didn't want to worry them. Not yet, at least. I had already put them 713Please respect copyright.PENANAYSYUlr5VPC
through a lot because of my secrets and I was doing so all over again. 713Please respect copyright.PENANAUFF8MmwXVX
When was I ever going to change?713Please respect copyright.PENANA9ryCjWVnWv
"Okay, I'll go," I said as I stood up. "You're right. I have to think of something, and fast."713Please respect copyright.PENANAYq9XxZBVYM
"Great," said Lee. "Now, go get your shoes. Collins isn't around so we can stay out for as long as we want."713Please respect copyright.PENANABg2sS2uCFM
"Has anyone seen Christine?" Daniel asked.713Please respect copyright.PENANAaCoIOszlKb
"She is with Zoey," said Mike, rolling his eyes as he mentioned Zoey's name. "They are probably in the room talking."713Please respect copyright.PENANAjNb8cuIkSS
"Hopefully, Christine would be able to convince Zoey to forgive me," I said.713Please respect copyright.PENANA4stLrhPKjF
Lee, Mike and Daniel 713Please respect copyright.PENANA6ThL8qcK84
shook their heads and muttered out words of disapproval. I didn't say 713Please respect copyright.PENANApLGC02ycAJ
anything, as I also shook my head. I went out of the lounge, straight to713Please respect copyright.PENANADwrigSt2HS
my room to get my shoes.713Please respect copyright.PENANAlD5QcxoOpZ
After I wore my white 713Please respect copyright.PENANA1fqc1lw0aH
pumps to match with my white jeans and purple tank top, I took my purse 713Please respect copyright.PENANAsKTb4GQOK4
and went to Christine's room. I made sure to knock first, and when 713Please respect copyright.PENANAgjpfRS9OzR
Christine called from inside to come in, I slowly opened the door. I 713Please respect copyright.PENANA2hrLhfpI7H
didn't go in the room as I saw Christine and Zoey on the bed facing each713Please respect copyright.PENANAR2fPLsd6BZ
other. They were quiet when they saw me at the door.713Please respect copyright.PENANAzu5doAqWPB
"Hey," I said. Zoey looked away, ignoring me. "Lee and I will be going out. I just wanted to let you know."713Please respect copyright.PENANAHZVfp3e0oA
"Okay," said Christine. "Have fun."713Please respect copyright.PENANAsTxVxxvLas
I nodded my head and quickly closed the door. It was still clear that Zoey didn't want to talk to me.713Please respect copyright.PENANACm934ydm4z
I walked down the hall and back to the lounge where Lee was waiting for me.713Please respect copyright.PENANALVN243M047
"We can go, now," I told her.713Please respect copyright.PENANAlp8vMTSVbk
"Alright, see you guys," said Lee as she turned to the boys.713Please respect copyright.PENANAFiArIs8CVo
"Bye," said Mike, his eyes glued to the TV screen and his fingers continually working on the control buttons on the game pad.713Please respect copyright.PENANANTsUm3Gneq
"Have fun, Sam," said Daniel as he managed to look at me and smile.713Please respect copyright.PENANABM3AlPnvVB
I smiled back at him. 713Please respect copyright.PENANAto38wzlTJs
Then Lee and I took off for the elevator. When we reached the ground 713Please respect copyright.PENANAw245Q88vsx
floor, the SUV was waiting for us as usual. And there were two body 713Please respect copyright.PENANAeDqUvIhBP5
guards in the other SUV.713Please respect copyright.PENANAEcjGqL7s1h
"Looks like you have everything planned out for the day," I said as I entered the car and Lee followed.713Please respect copyright.PENANAjFELsOuG4K
"Well, someone had to bring you back to reality and focus on what's really important," said Lee, as she closed the door.713Please respect copyright.PENANAdkAWsrJMt6
"If you mean Zoey and G-Dragon, I don't know what to do anymore."713Please respect copyright.PENANAIC6w70V4JF
The car's engine roared to life and the car drove out for the hotel premises with other car following behind us.713Please respect copyright.PENANAtnT5UsanvD
"So, where are we going?" I asked.713Please respect copyright.PENANAkqfiPVjelD
"To the mall," Lee answered.713Please respect copyright.PENANAjfXkX81msf
"How will the mall help me figure things out?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAxpdYnIM6S2
"What's wrong with the 713Please respect copyright.PENANARD9kKcpSVB
mall? Just trying to distract yourself will help you out. Sometimes the 713Please respect copyright.PENANA4wce4pA6If
best plans just come out of the blue."713Please respect copyright.PENANAJNaGu6Cbvl
"I should have just stayed behind and continued watching videos."713Please respect copyright.PENANAqcglFJarWf
"And waste the day away? No way."713Please respect copyright.PENANA0NDxu5ixPV
"Come on, Lee. Right now, I have no idea what to do and watching videos was the perfect way to distract myself."713Please respect copyright.PENANA7YTUtEObkc
"I know. I had to get you away from there so that we can talk about Derrick's brother."713Please respect copyright.PENANABMBPmRp0nB
"And what am I going to do with him? Unless I find out what Zoey's hiding, I can't come up with anything."713Please respect copyright.PENANA4Yp347MCKE
"Didn't you check around the room for any clues?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAYSHKNXhACf
"No. Zoey might have 713Please respect copyright.PENANAoeeRRnu30U
moved some of her stuff out of the room, but if she was hiding 713Please respect copyright.PENANAO4UrKp5UyE
something, she isn't dumb enough to leave it behind. I checked last 713Please respect copyright.PENANAk3YRLdq2Kc
night when she moved out and I couldn't find anything."713Please respect copyright.PENANAR8pRCmCuN4
"Well that's a bummer. What do you think she's hiding?"713Please respect copyright.PENANA079PMF3Sit
"I don't know. But the way Derrick described his brother, I'm expecting it's something serious."713Please respect copyright.PENANAlqkoqyqr0H
"Are you sure you checked everywhere?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAxDAWfS6ZtG
"The closet, her suitcase and even under the bed. There is nothing."713Please respect copyright.PENANAxrrpRuDs9S
Lee remained quiet and as for me, I went to looking at the windshield in front of me, looking down the streets of Seoul.713Please respect copyright.PENANA5pxzjszynI
"I don't know what to do713Please respect copyright.PENANA5iZu0gVjoD
anymore," I said, my eyes still on the road. "Now that I know that Zoey713Please respect copyright.PENANALdpLzJqF9u
might be in trouble, I can't just sit by and watch quietly. I know Zoey713Please respect copyright.PENANA3TsgK4aHvf
doesn't like to admit she is in trouble, but I have to help her out 713Please respect copyright.PENANAIrmQoAj8BV
somehow."713Please respect copyright.PENANAnEaSofgsfH
"But we can't do this alone, you know? At some point, we will have to involve the others too."713Please respect copyright.PENANAdw5P8YDMfc
"True. And I'll also have to ask the others their side of the story with what happened in Paris."713Please respect copyright.PENANAVxkTXrrfBK
"Mmm. Acting a true detective. Trying to put one piece of a puzzle together with another."713Please respect copyright.PENANABbKq1fXQCw
I folded my arms as I 713Please respect copyright.PENANASMWnlsnrBM
leaned back further in my seat, the wheels of my mind starting to work 713Please respect copyright.PENANAE2Kbz8H9NM
but I couldn't figure out what to do. I had too many problems to deal 713Please respect copyright.PENANA0If67vRhcH
with and it was driving me nuts. I wonder why I wasn't running around 713Please respect copyright.PENANAfeHvH9FLsh
the street with a crazy hairdo at this point.713Please respect copyright.PENANAsGW3Al4wLJ
We soon reached the mall713Please respect copyright.PENANAtq474rDMCh
and we came out of the car, heading towards the building with our two 713Please respect copyright.PENANAeUzaKHPgel
body guards behind us. I carried my shades with me this time and I wore 713Please respect copyright.PENANARs12POuqGF
them as we went in the mall. I could already feel eyes on me and see 713Please respect copyright.PENANAPjloRDv3Gy
phones coming out out of people's pockets as we passed. I was glad that 713Please respect copyright.PENANAIdpNfXlpzm
the bodyguards were around.713Please respect copyright.PENANAkTtCUkc0mn
Lee and I first went 713Please respect copyright.PENANAkyGKawJzIN
shopping for clothes. We even tried out some of them. I had to admit, 713Please respect copyright.PENANAQfAvltpi8i
shopping and trying out new clothes made me forget about some things for713Please respect copyright.PENANABfTBUjuyCZ
a while. I was having fun.713Please respect copyright.PENANARqGjpwV3hQ
And when it came to the fans, some were brave enough to go past the guards and come take photos with me and take autographs.713Please respect copyright.PENANAngQCRTU2Ry
Lee and I soon came out 713Please respect copyright.PENANAgVykFJlWnx
of a shoe store after buying some expensive shoes. I bet I bought more 713Please respect copyright.PENANAYGfTxrUimB
clothes than shoes and Lee was vice versa. We even managed to buy a few 713Please respect copyright.PENANAQDt7slGOSy
things for the others as well. The bodyguards had to help us out with 713Please respect copyright.PENANAL3vI5v6mGz
our bags because we bought way too much.713Please respect copyright.PENANAbYdZoVy2Dc
When we walked out of 713Please respect copyright.PENANAQ0NOQhuhAu
the store, Lee suggested that we go down to the food court and get 713Please respect copyright.PENANAwovbbQkjRa
ourselves something to eat. We were above the ground floor and just as 713Please respect copyright.PENANAyfD5dwcMXi
we were about to take the glass elevator, I noticed that opposite the 713Please respect copyright.PENANAFbELEDRxOO
elevator was a toy store. I looked at the toys shown on display.713Please respect copyright.PENANA3rRPVvfvTl
"Hey, what are you looking at?" Lee asked as she noticed that I had stopped.713Please respect copyright.PENANAxhXcRppmTw
I couldn't answer Lee. I713Please respect copyright.PENANAAnxrpw1GoE
also didn't know why I was staring at the toys on display. Something 713Please respect copyright.PENANAnylpMbVJNu
had drawn me to this store and I wondered what it was.713Please respect copyright.PENANA5wkziimNeo
"Hello! Earth to Sam!" Lee's fingers snapped in front of me.713Please respect copyright.PENANAWvvTALqASR
"Huh?" I turned to look at Lee.713Please respect copyright.PENANAh1D9xdkK7G
"What's wrong? What are you looking at?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAcwjBP9Kmso
"I..." I went back to looking at the toys on the glass display. "I don't know."713Please respect copyright.PENANAVOxt2HkX8H
"You don't know? You're staring at those toys like you want to buy them all."713Please respect copyright.PENANAhqk7103A5v
"I'm not a child, Lee." I rolled my eyes at her.713Please respect copyright.PENANATLXPc7P252
"Then why are you looking at those toys like that?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAWUS0JTHjQy
"I...I..." I scratched my head. This was weird even for me too.713Please respect copyright.PENANAyPHSSc8ETv
I looked at each and 713Please respect copyright.PENANAofaK80qBaT
every single toy on display till my eyes rested on a huge brown teddy 713Please respect copyright.PENANAX3iMTh17Mi
bear. I looked at it for a while until my mind clicked.713Please respect copyright.PENANA5TGPqd02oU
"Teddy," I said, looking at Lee.713Please respect copyright.PENANAmOyns9E3cR
"What?" Lee looked 713Please respect copyright.PENANAFAXFbgJ9iL
really confused and I bet in her mind she was obviously thinking that I 713Please respect copyright.PENANAh4DnH1A6OI
was crazy. "You want a teddy bear? But you already have a stuffed 713Please respect copyright.PENANAJ8qLTXyd9V
panda."713Please respect copyright.PENANAVlPNezaTz1
"No, not that. Mr Teddy. The little teddy bear back at the hotel."713Please respect copyright.PENANA3HUU3drTCd
"Ya? What's wrong with it?" Lee asked as she shrugged.713Please respect copyright.PENANAAvkBuKwmXi
"Derrick's brother sent 713Please respect copyright.PENANApKAUHCbUIo
it to us that day, remember?" I hit my head in frustration. "Gosh! I 713Please respect copyright.PENANAsC0DGk2RWh
should have asked Derrick if he knew that his brother sent us that teddy713Please respect copyright.PENANAV3ssAsd5UK
bear."713Please respect copyright.PENANAGNnAuknrPs
"But why are you so concerned about it? It's just a teddy bear."713Please respect copyright.PENANAiMUpzyUUR9
"Ya, sent by Derrick's evil brother. That has to count for something, right?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAJkaQrjTGAs
"I don't get it though."713Please respect copyright.PENANA2CODnfOVAu
Lee shook her head as she stared at the toys on display. "Why are you 713Please respect copyright.PENANAdeXCf6WRyf
so concerned about that small teddy?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAbaSpFmKg5Y
"That small teddy might hold the one thing we are looking for."713Please respect copyright.PENANAgBjXXJXGbv
***713Please respect copyright.PENANAK9QNA38jr5
Zoey's P.O.V713Please respect copyright.PENANA1wXStXl9Lc
"I'm tired of hearing the same thing over and over again," I said as I rubbed my forehead in frustration.713Please respect copyright.PENANAfln2V4DXSE
"You know I'm not going to quit, Zoey," said Christine as she looked at me with a stern look.713Please respect copyright.PENANAmu7QpHJpQW
"Look, this has hurt and disturbed me a lot. And when I need someone to talk to, you're not supporting me at all."713Please respect copyright.PENANAVBuD5zh0Bb
"Because I know you're wrong. And you're treating Sam so unfairly."713Please respect copyright.PENANAkCbZFqRCMh
"How am I treating her unfairly?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAGqOoeZmQda
"You moved out of the 713Please respect copyright.PENANAMiJMotSutO
room, taking some of your belongings with you. I know you're upset with 713Please respect copyright.PENANAbRjWhhOdzf
Sam, but doing that was not right. You're acting as if she is some kind 713Please respect copyright.PENANALzxN5j53aQ
of alien or something."713Please respect copyright.PENANABtjo4IzeQ5
I tilted my head to the side. "Well, if you put it that way, calling her an alien isn't that bad."713Please respect copyright.PENANAInnNExCGPi
In a quick flash, a 713Please respect copyright.PENANAFNO7ZafWaB
pillow landed on the side of my face with so much force, that I fell to 713Please respect copyright.PENANAOB60K0Fv6W
the side on the bed. I quickly sat up and held my cheek.713Please respect copyright.PENANAMx1RsNRfbp
"Christine!" I exclaimed. I was shocked that she did that.713Please respect copyright.PENANAKvGD9J4iGf
"Do you want more of 713Please respect copyright.PENANAVYeDAKpYsq
this pillow or should I get a hammer instead?" Christine asked 713Please respect copyright.PENANAigJFZcd8CJ
threateningly as she held up her pillow, ready to strike at me again.713Please respect copyright.PENANAbSlIhd9Fxr
"Never mind. I shouldn't have said that."713Please respect copyright.PENANA2Rk6tzzWgH
"You got that right." 713Please respect copyright.PENANAIiHj2cf4sR
Christine put the pillow away. "I know Sam hurt you a lot, but you won't713Please respect copyright.PENANAUZvXaL1pGe
ignore her like you're doing forever."713Please respect copyright.PENANAcx8pQ5NWn2
"Don't worry, forever will be here any moment now." I said ironically as I looked at the door.713Please respect copyright.PENANAWSQ7bhXS1u
"You know that sooner or later you will need her. And besides, she is always going to be around whether you like it or not."713Please respect copyright.PENANA8IheG3rbOK
"Ya. You don't have to remind me since we're all in a group together."713Please respect copyright.PENANAgcDeIM8fWm
Christine carefully looked at me and stood up from the bed, walking towards the window.713Please respect copyright.PENANARBc9NI5Yy7
"It's normal for someone713Please respect copyright.PENANATIkyX550rf
to get hurt by the ones they love and you aren't the first nor the last713Please respect copyright.PENANAgtTJ7hsSCR
to experience such, Zoey," said Christine as she looked at me. "You 713Please respect copyright.PENANAqIcjVVf1QL
just need time to heal. You'll be back to your normal self and later on,713Please respect copyright.PENANA6OxyWBmGTh
you will be laughing at all this with Sam. One thing's for sure, you 713Please respect copyright.PENANAm8rnIiBXJN
and Sam are best friends. And nothing will ever change that."713Please respect copyright.PENANAyKbnrt3307
I always hated such kind713Please respect copyright.PENANARVAJmdFiod
of talk. And coming from Christine, it just made me want to cry. Which I713Please respect copyright.PENANA93iP5zI9oC
didn't want to do. So what if I was still mad at Sam? I knew for a fact713Please respect copyright.PENANAlqJDEXjvdD
that I wasn't going to ignore Sam for long. And as much as I wanted to,713Please respect copyright.PENANAeDKG1lshMt
I couldn't live without Sam. She's been my best friend for as long as I713Please respect copyright.PENANAABMm1rJjFN
could remember and I'm used with her being around. Without her, I'm 713Please respect copyright.PENANA5UDX9wvbHt
nothing.713Please respect copyright.PENANAuYk63dAjuJ
I've never told anyone 713Please respect copyright.PENANACLXCxgCILm
this before, but I've always considered Sam as my better half. Not in a 713Please respect copyright.PENANAS98bxcnmxO
couple kind of thing (which is kind of gross by the way), but more like a713Please respect copyright.PENANAnnVet735xC
sister kind of thing. I am one person who is always prone to getting 713Please respect copyright.PENANACdbQlZKiYd
into trouble and Sam has always been the one to get me out of it. If it 713Please respect copyright.PENANAGIoiIQvZih
wasn't for Sam, I would have been a high school drop out or worse. I 713Please respect copyright.PENANADUZTVTWfqr
also wouldn't find myself as a famous singer in a pop group right now.713Please respect copyright.PENANAkr3zkolosH
I am Yin and she is 713Please respect copyright.PENANAR4aE9JZHNv
Yang, balancing my life and hers. But mostly mine. I fell we are the 713Please respect copyright.PENANAjDrqQfmgGt
perfect harmony when we are together even though I am not as perfect as 713Please respect copyright.PENANAuFeym032Nu
she is. Maybe that's why I consider myself as Yin, the dark side and Sam713Please respect copyright.PENANAk45sOoiEmQ
the bright side. You see what I mean, right?713Please respect copyright.PENANA2RkCd3Sph2
And now when I needed 713Please respect copyright.PENANAr9mHh2l0Ch
her the most, I was stuck with no one to turn to. I couldn't open up to 713Please respect copyright.PENANADrRGMoZahx
her now and tell her what's going on in my life. I've gotten myself into713Please respect copyright.PENANA4HzqOB3CQk
big trouble this time around and there was no way of turning back or 713Please respect copyright.PENANAiykv2yLRak
getting anyone involved to help. Not when you know you're involved in a 713Please respect copyright.PENANAhoEAzO85jk
serious situation with a very dangerous person.713Please respect copyright.PENANApV2BokI9DX
It all begun when I went713Please respect copyright.PENANAUCtalW9xLC
to Paris with G-Dragon, TOP and the other Toxins, excluding Sam. How I 713Please respect copyright.PENANAxVDcVKWeFE
wish she had come along with me that day. Maybe I wasn't going to be in 713Please respect copyright.PENANAGs13Sc8QR6
this mess.713Please respect copyright.PENANAhpTQkjODjz
We were having so much 713Please respect copyright.PENANAANyIaaAQng
fun that night. We went for the Chanel fashion show as planned and it 713Please respect copyright.PENANAofGu21qTLx
was fun looking at the latest fashion being worn and showcased on the 713Please respect copyright.PENANAzIuVHjA0n2
runway. At that time I felt on top of the world with what had happened 713Please respect copyright.PENANAYCEMAV4ztq
between G-Dragon and I at the Eiffle Tower. And I was so happy and 713Please respect copyright.PENANAjUF4xCbHLp
pretty much oblivious that nothing could ever go wrong. But sadly, 713Please respect copyright.PENANAA2Qharji4v
things did go wrong.713Please respect copyright.PENANAKlnCg5Bzwk
As we were watching the 713Please respect copyright.PENANAizRZxVEIM4
models, I was seated next to someone whom I hadn't really took notice 713Please respect copyright.PENANA1et7uUWPbd
for a while since the fashion show started until he turned to look at me713Please respect copyright.PENANAYRutqJMxsw
and said hi. He introduced himself as Jehan. He told me he was French.713Please respect copyright.PENANAMoXAxKVoZB
When I looked at him, he713Please respect copyright.PENANAROnCF7fB2O
seemed like a really nice guy. He was also very handsome. He recognised713Please respect copyright.PENANAyimPhrZiGa
me as one of the Toxins and said he was a huge fan. We talked for a 713Please respect copyright.PENANAm5B5UEfbXh
while during the show and for a moment there, we seemed to be getting 713Please respect copyright.PENANAMFbSKKbP4F
along just fine. I also introduced him to the others. It was after the 713Please respect copyright.PENANAr9Fw1mRmc3
fashion show that I realised I was dead wrong about him.713Please respect copyright.PENANAAMMFwEQ3Xn
After the show when 713Please respect copyright.PENANAQ7Uo6iCO7r
everyone was busy finding themselves among groups and indulging into 713Please respect copyright.PENANA7x39C8ceVM
some random conversation, Jehan, said that he wanted to talk to me in 713Please respect copyright.PENANAWl9yqQazCd
private. I didn't like the idea of leaving the others while I went out 713Please respect copyright.PENANAAopnScLN1m
with someone I barely even knew. But he did say it was only going to 713Please respect copyright.PENANAFnHasiHIiD
take a few minutes.713Please respect copyright.PENANAiNav2geOIe
I didn't find anything 713Please respect copyright.PENANA4wMc3MmD05
wrong with it and I agreed to go out with him for a while. Besides, I 713Please respect copyright.PENANAfH5Ne3actV
was getting too much attention and going out looked like a good idea at 713Please respect copyright.PENANAnWPv7AL80a
the time. Without telling G-Dragon who was with TOP and the others 713Please respect copyright.PENANA1tPcYQDC2z
talking to some famous fashion designers, I knew they wouldn't miss me 713Please respect copyright.PENANAzziiInsAr5
too much.713Please respect copyright.PENANAou3n0brZqZ
Jehan led the way out 713Please respect copyright.PENANAP1NCaJ9n4E
and we found ourselves outside. It was lovely and the night was cool as 713Please respect copyright.PENANARFj5PIGeDg
we took a walk around a small garden outside the building. There were a 713Please respect copyright.PENANAtHU5sDTcnd
few people outside, some near the fountain. At least there was an 713Please respect copyright.PENANAwyqmr6LkOU
assurance that if anything were to go wrong, there were witnesses. With 713Please respect copyright.PENANAw3NUmwSl7B
that I felt a little safe.713Please respect copyright.PENANA6iAbAQU7hR
The two of us soon found713Please respect copyright.PENANAsInFVYodl1
ourselves indulged in some conversation. Before I knew it, we were all 713Please respect copyright.PENANAsYPSHpU9gM
alone in the garden and that's when Jehan took the opportunity to 713Please respect copyright.PENANARuHIs9xnzW
threaten me. It was something I hadn't told anyone about because what 713Please respect copyright.PENANAJrDPzDzJsk
happened frightened me. And coming from a person like Jehan, you could 713Please respect copyright.PENANAEvZDUIiY2D
doubt that such a guy like him would ever do such a thing. Yet alone on a713Please respect copyright.PENANAzbFMZamVgp
lady. He said if I didn't do whatever he said, he wouldn't hesitate to 713Please respect copyright.PENANAAiESLg68Mb
hunt me down and kill me. I believed his threats because he was pointing713Please respect copyright.PENANAFWvBTUiB1g
a gun at me and his face went from sweet and kind to dangerous and 713Please respect copyright.PENANAaJkrDUnrG1
menacing.713Please respect copyright.PENANAuPfg0CVz1K
He gave me something for713Please respect copyright.PENANAQQYlUcbAva
me to keep safe and not to let anyone know about it. He said he would 713Please respect copyright.PENANAf7Rolj4pdC
follow me to Korea and get it. He was the same person I had met at the 713Please respect copyright.PENANAM1Hx2Pjs7U
café and when I gave him the item back, he said there was more that had 713Please respect copyright.PENANAUMLjdIXbak
to be done. When I asked what he meant, he didn't say anything. All he 713Please respect copyright.PENANAb01OaGiNt0
said was that something was going to be sent to me back at the hotel in 713Please respect copyright.PENANAAXBoWL1HBI
the name of The Toxins. That's how the teddy bear came in.713Please respect copyright.PENANAXDaBbyGRf5
Whatever he sent me that713Please respect copyright.PENANAZuwwehHeA1
teddy bear for, I have no idea. And when I talked to him about what I 713Please respect copyright.PENANAiDBf6eHeQY
should do with it yesterday, he said he would meet with me and give me 713Please respect copyright.PENANAqEJQIXKAc6
further instructions. And I couldn't meet up with him because of what 713Please respect copyright.PENANAuRkuxXdByS
happened yesterday.713Please respect copyright.PENANAQkndYRNpFD
I had never been in this713Please respect copyright.PENANAH7TuCHXcn5
situation before and all I wanted was for all this to be over. But how?713Please respect copyright.PENANALAXa7wnmkO
Unless I come up with a plan, I was going to be threatened for the rest713Please respect copyright.PENANAYpZCZiYiqT
of my life and that's how I didn't want my life to be. I'm Zoey for 713Please respect copyright.PENANAnKFdKAUivy
crying out loud. I had to do something.713Please respect copyright.PENANAw1FERxJHsD
My phone rang bringing 713Please respect copyright.PENANA38m0bX3GWq
me back from my thoughts. Christine who was looking out the window, 713Please respect copyright.PENANAG1uIvHE4Gg
turned to look at me. I went to looking at the phone laying right beside713Please respect copyright.PENANA46o5UQxMrO
me. When I saw that Jehan was calling, I froze.713Please respect copyright.PENANA6C8VQ5Zcvd
"Aren't you going to answer that?" Christine asked, as I delayed to pick up the call.713Please respect copyright.PENANAd5c9tpZjYx
"I...uh, ya, I will," I said as I picked up the phone and answered the call. I could already feel myself starting to sweat.713Please respect copyright.PENANAA8U77LflDb
"Hello?" I answered. I almost gave out a croak when I spoke.713Please respect copyright.PENANAEdbxuaD6CL
"Nice to hear that you're still answering my calls. Shows that you're cooperating."713Please respect copyright.PENANAyM5EZ76Co4
I would have told him to713Please respect copyright.PENANATx7Z9NPgOA
mind his own beeswax but I couldn't with Christine in the room staring 713Please respect copyright.PENANA8rwpVdjpHH
at me like an eagle. Was she observing me? I couldn't tell.713Please respect copyright.PENANAHfhC9HWp91
"I'm great and you?" I said over the phone with a smile. Christine ignored me and went back to looking at the window.713Please respect copyright.PENANAyTpdnywR6l
"Looks like you aren't 713Please respect copyright.PENANATpvELqGQoS
alone," said Jehan. I could hear in his voice that he wanted to chuckle.713Please respect copyright.PENANAVpMaS9rd5N
"You wouldn't have answered so nicely like you rarely do."713Please respect copyright.PENANAnCTtCDsRYs
"May I help you with anything?" I asked as nicely as I could. He was already getting on my nerves.713Please respect copyright.PENANATE811EvE1Q
"Relax, my little tigress. I could tell I'm getting on your nerves and that won't be good for you now, would it?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAK3nWDfNdQS
"Just get to the point, 713Please respect copyright.PENANAdfS1cWRaEH
will you?" I snapped, losing my cool. Christine turned to look at me. I 713Please respect copyright.PENANAVNxxdQoTl4
smiled as best as I could that I was afraid my face would tear.713Please respect copyright.PENANAKpHXxxaCC6
"I want us to meet, today," said Jehan. There was a touch of coldness to his voice and that sent chills down my spine.713Please respect copyright.PENANAjano0gVA5H
"Today? Are you serious?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAFQQyOPFtyx
"You know that I am. We meet today."713Please respect copyright.PENANA7aqyYcJ8Vx
"But where?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAbVNWR4RbuU
"At the mall."713Please respect copyright.PENANAd8JFHeL5Ld
For a moment I almost 713Please respect copyright.PENANAi9WjnoPCBO
burst out laughing, but I held my mouth. I wondered why he would want to713Please respect copyright.PENANAxNhDq3CW69
meet me at the mall. I was expecting the café again or some fancy 713Please respect copyright.PENANAvnEs6sSnto
restaurant. To me, he didn't strike me as one person who would want to 713Please respect copyright.PENANAxk1itt865c
hang out at the mall. That's what made it seem so funny to me.713Please respect copyright.PENANACOkoqeoZpu
"What's so funny?" Jehan713Please respect copyright.PENANA8cSFCcVYYt
asked sternly. He knew I was almost about to burst out laughing. The 713Please respect copyright.PENANAOnrUoP4XVe
tone of his voice almost did the trick but I still took a hold of 713Please respect copyright.PENANA96Ldd0P8Tw
myself.713Please respect copyright.PENANAnnkFRWoFSO
"Nothing, I wanted to sneeze but held it. That's all."713Please respect copyright.PENANAn5saTD7aX5
"You better be telling the truth or else I will blow your brains out."713Please respect copyright.PENANAD69nwRpSUa
If he thought saying 713Please respect copyright.PENANAzUlXF2dkoI
that would get me scared, it didn't. I pulled the phone far away from me713Please respect copyright.PENANAyLDSVyAGZk
and laughed quietly. Then I put the phone back to my ear.713Please respect copyright.PENANAaiR4kxlmAy
"I don't think I would be able to meet you," I said, choosing my words carefully in front of Christine.713Please respect copyright.PENANAjVWiYsMiOB
"I don't care. You're meeting with me whether you like it or not."713Please respect copyright.PENANAZcUvRjaJXP
"Mmm. Even if I wanted to, I don't know how I'm going to get there."713Please respect copyright.PENANARoeqwm4fYH
"A car will be waiting to take you within fifteen minutes. You better get ready. And don't forget the teddy."713Please respect copyright.PENANADQAKhbcbZf
"Ya, sure."713Please respect copyright.PENANAXFQnjWGXDJ
Jehan didn't say 713Please respect copyright.PENANAtOxrtExW36
anything more and cut the call. He was so rude. Bossing me around just 713Please respect copyright.PENANAdu0m9qreAy
because he could do whatever he wants with a gun pointed to my head. 713Please respect copyright.PENANA1uyRjlK9ki
Typical.713Please respect copyright.PENANAu20XutHWPH
"Who was that?" Christine asked, looking at me.713Please respect copyright.PENANA9yWbMojnmL
"Oh, it was Seungri," I lied. "He wanted to see if I was free right now so that the two of us could hang out."713Please respect copyright.PENANAEVVP4LBezn
"Seriously?" Christine looked surprised. "Why would Seungri call you just to hang out?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAOzrkI7xzdw
"Well, he wanted to talk to me about Sam. That's all."713Please respect copyright.PENANA2QB2TSDx3G
"And you didn't refuse?" Christine had her arms folded and looking at me with doubt.713Please respect copyright.PENANAWT96E7TSpq
"Why? You think I would?"713Please respect copyright.PENANArBPOUBy5Uy
"Ya. The Zoey I know would refuse."713Please respect copyright.PENANAwNUPIZ7eWH
"He's just taking me to some fancy place. I couldn't refuse."713Please respect copyright.PENANAVRmrUuy5WI
"Ya, you always like the fancy stuff." Christine rolled her eyes as she looked up at the ceiling.713Please respect copyright.PENANA4eA0LXayFs
"Whatever happened to that teddy bear?" I asked, changing the topic.713Please respect copyright.PENANAxAgKUlA1Mp
"You mean the teddy bear you hate so much?" Christine came closer and sat down on the other side of her bed.713Please respect copyright.PENANAELixbwJbGX
"That one. Where is it?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAmqULKyO5jd
"Why are you even asking?" Christine shrugged her shoulders.713Please respect copyright.PENANAIIfMpRUzSR
"I just want to ask if it's still around. That's all. I hadn't seen it ever since we went bowling that other day."713Please respect copyright.PENANAgfUriiQR7R
Christine looked over at Lee's bed across from her's.713Please respect copyright.PENANAtGNPq7Y4hb
"I saw it on the bed yesterday. I don't know where she could have put it."713Please respect copyright.PENANAJOyaEO03oZ
"Oh. Okay," I said, as I stood up with my eyes surveying Lee's bed. "I better get ready to meet Seungri, then."713Please respect copyright.PENANABye7eHkqWx
"Alright," said Christine as she also stood up. "I need to use the bathroom."713Please respect copyright.PENANAfbOBrvjJ0X
Christine went past me to the bathroom and closed the door behind her, locking it.713Please respect copyright.PENANAKe3qb6i2p8
I quietly went over to 713Please respect copyright.PENANA4l7MPCZwQf
Lee's bed. Her bed was well spread and pillows well placed. I couldn't 713Please respect copyright.PENANA5y0YN9BasS
see the teddy anywhere. I had to act fast or else Christine will be back713Please respect copyright.PENANAkU8NIYvoUL
soon.713Please respect copyright.PENANA1wfr8280Xf
I came to the drawer 713Please respect copyright.PENANAfx4fCL2St3
next to the bed and checked them, being careful enough not to make a 713Please respect copyright.PENANAuvHrsDoszT
sound. Nothing. I almost started to panic. Where was the teddy?713Please respect copyright.PENANAQwH41hLKNC
I looked at her bed and 713Please respect copyright.PENANA2UotWYOPXE
decided to check under the pillows. When I lifted one of them, there 713Please respect copyright.PENANAiAdWQ3xI92
laid the teddy bear still in his tiny suit.713Please respect copyright.PENANAhOjBXy4fzn
"There you are," I said softly as I took the teddy. "I think it's now time for you to leave once and for all."713Please respect copyright.PENANAQ8tjLfBZlh
I heard the tap in the 713Please respect copyright.PENANA1aq8XSl6MV
bathroom running. Christine was bound to be back in the room any second 713Please respect copyright.PENANA9kYYMOZIeW
now. I quickly put the pillow back neatly and then tiptoed quickly out 713Please respect copyright.PENANAuhsy0M8F3I
of the room with the teddy in my other hand. When I reached the door, I 713Please respect copyright.PENANAPErlTfygDE
quietly opened it and closed it behind me.713Please respect copyright.PENANAWJrvc5SCvG
***713Please respect copyright.PENANAqlAOz1rTMc
Sam's P.O.V713Please respect copyright.PENANAoNmCCoLC4y
"Do you really think 713Please respect copyright.PENANAA0TW7BMuok
that teddy carries something that will help us figure out what's going 713Please respect copyright.PENANAVrKJWHxeXM
on?" Lee asked as she took a sip of her smoothie, looking at me.713Please respect copyright.PENANAB16jztRSA2
"Definitely," I said as I got a french fry, dipped it in sauce and put it in my mouth.713Please respect copyright.PENANAvqx6diULDO
"Okay, so far, Derrick has described his brother as a very dangerous guy. Is he some sort of criminal or something?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAKxqtZFrFPg
"For him to threaten Zoey, he must be. But if he really is a criminal, then what sort of crime does he do?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAGzyNiQOKgV
"I hope it's not drugs."713Please respect copyright.PENANARnwHuyKcyY
"I hope not too." I shook my head at that terrible thought.713Please respect copyright.PENANAmQtgq2lzZ8
"What of gun trafficking?" Lee asked as she held her smoothie cup in midair.713Please respect copyright.PENANA0QyDPQNvxN
"No way." I asked as I drank from my smoothie.713Please respect copyright.PENANAiyHkIoKZCa
"So, what should we do with that teddy bear?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAt6mbMspF7f
"Keep it away from her. Whatever that thing has, we have to know before she takes it away."713Please respect copyright.PENANAk1UpJ92kH7
"I wonder why she never kept it for herself. I mean, if she is being threatened, her life will depend on that teddy, right?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAmyZcFDnDfl
"True." I nodded my head. "I bet she pretended to hate the teddy so that we don't get suspicious of anything."713Please respect copyright.PENANAC3WekpdUTW
"She did a pretty good job on that one."713Please respect copyright.PENANAijjpuUENdf
"Ya. But she was overreacting. Who could reject such a cute teddy bear like that one?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAI3Up0yVyL4
"Zoey."713Please respect copyright.PENANAABqtZ5qla4
"Haha. Ya. I heard Zoey 713Please respect copyright.PENANAVeOc5k4yuA
talking to Derrick's brother. They were supposed to meet yesterday but 713Please respect copyright.PENANAdNbsht1PV4
they couldn't because of our little fight."713Please respect copyright.PENANA72HdaZgYD1
"Mmm." Lee took a fry 713Please respect copyright.PENANAnViznpKC4W
and dipped it in sauce as she looked deep in thought. "Don't you think 713Please respect copyright.PENANAwlWUW8O2bl
the two would try to meet today, no matter what?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAY3qWwVGkit
I raised an eyebrow at 713Please respect copyright.PENANAAHkH7NvXtS
her. Come to think of it, I was supposed to be keeping an eye on Zoey. 713Please respect copyright.PENANAmjS3RokBUd
But here I was, eating fries. I completely forgot.713Please respect copyright.PENANA0AfXCPwsNk
"Shoot!" I said loudly 713Please respect copyright.PENANAdkHwMGIsvR
as I leaned my head back with my eyes closed. I bet everyone around me 713Please respect copyright.PENANAqh9m9HivFG
was wondering what was wrong with me since I was so loud. I hit my head 713Please respect copyright.PENANAeczdTvJxxU
with my hand. "You're so right, Lee."713Please respect copyright.PENANAnJrpQGIQJw
"About what?" Lee asked.713Please respect copyright.PENANAm9VBUVh0Ub
"About Zoey meeting him today. I should have been more aware."713Please respect copyright.PENANAkOR0pzDkb1
"But do you think they would? I was just suggesting."713Please respect copyright.PENANA0DLwU5kJqA
"But today might be the 713Please respect copyright.PENANAOBn9OmIxg1
perfect time for them to meet. We are here, the boys are busy playing 713Please respect copyright.PENANAqMJJGm12mF
video games and Zoey might find a way to dodge Christine to go out."713Please respect copyright.PENANAa5srODUOYO
"Hopefully not. If she is going to meet him today, then she might take the teddy with her."713Please respect copyright.PENANAiY3qRjPPPz
My heart rate quickened 713Please respect copyright.PENANAxj9NSdE7aP
at the thought of Zoey meeting Derrick's brother. I was scared. What if 713Please respect copyright.PENANAQngZKO6hPo
she sees him today and things don't go well this time around?713Please respect copyright.PENANAJ5UOo3LqBX
"If I were you, I would give Zoey a call," said Lee. She obviously saw the worried look on my face.713Please respect copyright.PENANA0KaDFnkyr8
"No, you do it," I said shaking my head. "She isn't going to answer my call."713Please respect copyright.PENANAYy2FxFS8yb
"Oh, yeah," said Lee as she took out her phone from her handbag and called Zoey.713Please respect copyright.PENANAoDhbvRrbrB
"She isn't picking up," said Lee as she looked at her phone. "She must have switched her phone off."713Please respect copyright.PENANACq36s5qyEg
"She must have gone to see him. Call Christine and ask about Zoey."713Please respect copyright.PENANAgRBntYDevR
Lee went back to her phone and immediately called Christine. Christine picked up immediately.713Please respect copyright.PENANAWkdACm1jzS
"Hey, Christine," said Lee as she looked over at me and I watched her intently. "I wanted to ask if Zoey is with you."713Please respect copyright.PENANAgrzNmqnglW
There was a pause as Lee listened to Christine over the phone. Lee's face changed completely.713Please respect copyright.PENANAVfjKeD36qr
"Alright, thanks, 713Please respect copyright.PENANAuvQkDRaJpp
Christine," said Lee as she cut the call and looked at me. "Zoey had 713Please respect copyright.PENANAi11hegY0y6
left the hotel a few minutes ago. Christine says she went out with 713Please respect copyright.PENANAAVLB0Hafk4
Seungri."713Please respect copyright.PENANAdyTPpOrlNZ
I raised an eyebrow. "Seungri? Why would Seungri meet with Zoey? I bet she lied."713Please respect copyright.PENANAi5fKw7X6zO
"Of course she did. She has obviously gone to meet with this guy."713Please respect copyright.PENANAfMkNzTrUNC
"Did Christine say where she had gone?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAUDxcrDy6R1
"No. Zoey wasn't specific. All Christine said was that she and Seungri were going to some fancy place."713Please respect copyright.PENANAJukcjtnR87
I suddenly decided to get my phone from my purse and called Seungri. He answered the call immediately.713Please respect copyright.PENANAOsnefSJvwv
"Hey, BK," he said so enthusiastically over the phone. "How are you?"713Please respect copyright.PENANA4bh2eydzTd
"I'm fine, Seungri, thanks," I said, immediately jumping to the point. "Where are you?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAcUAMd89sNH
"I'm in my car heading to GD's. Is there anything I could do for you?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAo4IwP1hBlr
"Uh, no, nothing. Was just asking. Are you alone?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAeODwzV5Tuf
"Yes, I am." I could 713Please respect copyright.PENANALlObReFyr2
already imagine a smile on his face and I had to get ready for a 713Please respect copyright.PENANA66nzaqwKfH
ridiculous question to follow. "Why? You think I'm with someone? A woman713Please respect copyright.PENANAjUNY0gWfJs
perhaps?"713Please respect copyright.PENANA9fJt1HIowN
I rolled my eyes and as 713Please respect copyright.PENANAo1TOVz7lzh
much as I wanted to remain stoic and not laugh, I did. I quickly tried 713Please respect copyright.PENANALQBSbsD9t4
to cover it up, but Seungri also heard it and chuckled. Lee looked at me713Please respect copyright.PENANAkOmRVQ1Zpd
with an eyebrow raised as I laughed out loud this time around.713Please respect copyright.PENANAy9pTPYmSng
"What makes you think that?" I asked after recovering from my laugh.713Please respect copyright.PENANAfwxuunRNjQ
"For you to call, I'm guessing you must have been thinking of me and tried to see what I'm up to."713Please respect copyright.PENANAobV28GM3Ap
I bit my lower lip and 713Please respect copyright.PENANA9GozwYfm7Z
shook my head. If only he knew why I called. But I had to admit, he was 713Please respect copyright.PENANA4uvEmLeCN0
really making me laugh even when I didn't want to.713Please respect copyright.PENANAskYphoNqGl
"It's really nothing, Seungri. I just wanted to say hi."713Please respect copyright.PENANAVelLPlaIBH
"Well, if you say so." I knew he wasn't buying it. "Where are you?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAO5z2nyLVkL
"I'm at the mall with Lee."713Please respect copyright.PENANA39Nk7m7xp0
"Okay, you have fun now. You will need it."713Please respect copyright.PENANAqz0nWi4UxC
"Bye."713Please respect copyright.PENANARXQ7IAZoez
"Bye, my little kitty."713Please respect copyright.PENANAJF5YspLIyq
"Well, that was some conversation," said Lee as I put my phone away.713Please respect copyright.PENANAIgTCPJ9Fh3
"Ya, it was," I said still with a smile on my face.713Please respect copyright.PENANA4dH6y22C3Y
"So, he isn't with Zoey?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAObBrmM99Hv
"Nope. And he isn't 713Please respect copyright.PENANAyZreZ3TJBn
going to some fancy place either." I paused as the smile on my face 713Please respect copyright.PENANAboGUyu17fp
disappeared. "He's gone to see G-Dragon."713Please respect copyright.PENANAdfgk6ZVFdR
"Oh." Lee took her smoothie and sucked on the straw. "Umm, what are we going to do now? We have to know where Zoey is."713Please respect copyright.PENANAZ0gjTtnz3s
"You're right," I said. "But where can we even start to look? This time, I'm blank."713Please respect copyright.PENANAxd9HO18YRy
"Maybe they are going to meet at the café again."713Please respect copyright.PENANA3E9BlHe6oF
I shook my head. "I highly doubt it. Even if we were to guess where they could meet, it would probably be too late."713Please respect copyright.PENANAfeMXVGaa7r
Lee sighed as she folded her arms. "Well, this has turned out to be such a bust."713Please respect copyright.PENANA4srKLlbPoc
"Tell me about it." I 713Please respect copyright.PENANAyhR91B3tnG
put my elbows on the table and held my head in my hands. "I shouldn't 713Please respect copyright.PENANAoJmqUa8lNE
have allowed this to happen. I shouldn't have been so absent minded."713Please respect copyright.PENANA5aJ9o5GSL9
"Don't beat yourself up, Sam," said Lee. "Maybe it's time we told Zoey what we already know."713Please respect copyright.PENANASxGBvd3gun
I nodded. We were now caught in a dead end and maybe it was time we involved the others too.713Please respect copyright.PENANASsb1tknCc9
After we were done with 713Please respect copyright.PENANAGUEpwHCOFI
lunch, we paid for the meal, carried our shopping bags with us and with 713Please respect copyright.PENANAXgw4jfKvSo
our body guards following behind, we headed out of the mall.713Please respect copyright.PENANAvd8mhisnh4
As soon as we walked out713Please respect copyright.PENANAKAlO98DBjj
through the main entrance, a fancy looking red Ferrari was parked right713Please respect copyright.PENANAve6M3ZHpzM
in front of us in the parking lot. Just as we were about to bypass the 713Please respect copyright.PENANAAUGYhlsPxT
car, the door to the driver's seat flew open and a man in a fancy 713Please respect copyright.PENANAVwU4dIo7IH
looking black suit stepped out.713Please respect copyright.PENANAiIFoen8xR9
Time seemed to have 713Please respect copyright.PENANAx1O3ocApXn
stopped when I looked at the man from the corner of my eye. He was tall 713Please respect copyright.PENANAOukvIo4sOR
and handsome with a strong jaw and black shiny hair which was combed 713Please respect copyright.PENANAJLbPTGM0j9
back. He had a pair of sunglasses on and I couldn't help but feel 713Please respect copyright.PENANAtQ45bs02E9
something familiar about him.713Please respect copyright.PENANAaCoZY8wSr2
Just as I was about to 713Please respect copyright.PENANAZxUhG3UYAP
focus ahead, the man removed his shades and I fully turned to look at 713Please respect copyright.PENANAW2jzKtFR2R
him. My mouth almost dropped and I couldn't believe what I was seeing.713Please respect copyright.PENANAirdNpNAYOJ
I almost tripped and 713Please respect copyright.PENANAfiD3chUThn
fell over on the road but I was quick to gather myself. Lee looked at me713Please respect copyright.PENANA0l96urjt2t
with concern because even the guards almost came to my rescue to stop 713Please respect copyright.PENANA3tIoEAKASm
me from falling.713Please respect copyright.PENANAAhvE5wjxph
"Are you okay, Sam?" Lee asked as she looked at me. "You almost fell."713Please respect copyright.PENANAojp0D4xBlv
I didn't say a word as I713Please respect copyright.PENANAqKL6lucvCW
looked behind me where the Ferrari was packed and I noticed the man go 713Please respect copyright.PENANAbvoI6YXkva
inside the mall. I turned to look at Lee.713Please respect copyright.PENANAJQ5mrIIiiz
"We need to go back, Lee," I said.713Please respect copyright.PENANArgKTygWfWQ
"But why? You're scaring me Sam. It's look like you have seen a ghost."713Please respect copyright.PENANA78bGa0QRa7
"Trust me, Lee. We need to go back. We have to put these bags away first."713Please respect copyright.PENANAQVjjfIQweX
"May I please know what's going on with you?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAGd0cGXcUFm
"I know where Zoey and Derrick's brother are going to meet. They will be meeting here. At the mall."713Please respect copyright.PENANAhLodsIpT7y

Narrator's P.O.V713Please respect copyright.PENANAk5airpdb9B
Seungri came into G-Dragon's apartment and found TOP, Taeyang and G-Dragon, who was still in his pyjamas, in the living room.713Please respect copyright.PENANAMoosrMlE5l
"Hey guys, am here," 713Please respect copyright.PENANAvmdvizie43
annouced Seungri as he sat down on the couch next to Taeyang. "You guys 713Please respect copyright.PENANAhTFN43ND34
look downcast as though someone's just died."713Please respect copyright.PENANAzeqIPotWNn
"Ji Yong still doesn't want to talk things out with Sam," said TOP.713Please respect copyright.PENANAianG09O5RL
"This is getting real 713Please respect copyright.PENANAJ7Ki5qUbaf
frustrating, guys," said G-Dragon who was hugging a couch pillow close 713Please respect copyright.PENANAZiYfTccNQF
to him and looking down on the floor. "Now isn't the time to talk with 713Please respect copyright.PENANAPZ1YtsZeh7
her or with anyone of you."713Please respect copyright.PENANAN2OBBg18PA
"No, I think now is the 713Please respect copyright.PENANAqunp2SXPG9
time to solve things with her," said Taeyang. "We will be working on the713Please respect copyright.PENANABNg7viLHUG
music video soon and we can't do this if you two aren't on good terms."713Please respect copyright.PENANAem2U02qRTf
"And let's not forget, Zoey," said Seungri.713Please respect copyright.PENANAIADe5m3SEx
"Zoey is a whole lot tougher to talk to," said G-Dragon. "I already did my part and told her the truth."713Please respect copyright.PENANAU6DesDeeKb
"Well, you shouldn't have led her on if you knew you had feelings for Sam," said Taeyang.713Please respect copyright.PENANAykcPtOfkrI
"Let's not forget, Daesung also has feelings for her," said TOP.713Please respect copyright.PENANA0VVEzccQr1
"And me," said Seungri with a corky smile on his face.713Please respect copyright.PENANALkXfSD4vcY
"Oh, stop joking around, Seungri," said G-Dragon, with a frown on his face.713Please respect copyright.PENANAZjppsnTxAn
"For real," said Seungri raising his hands in the air admitting to the truth. "I also like Sam."713Please respect copyright.PENANAL50gsN5afv
The others rolled their 713Please respect copyright.PENANAoB2WOvDpuW
eyes at Seungri, obviously not taking him seriously. He usually jokes 713Please respect copyright.PENANAutG3fEUwO3
around and now wasn't the time for it.713Please respect copyright.PENANAr0RvLCiZ56
"Look, I know leading Zoey on was a big mistake, but I'm more angry at Sam than at myself," said G-Dragon.713Please respect copyright.PENANAThOrUHoTav
"Why? Because Sam and Daesung kissed?" Seungri asked with an eyebrow raised.713Please respect copyright.PENANANIcvShvgOs
G-Dragon didn't answer immediately. He looked like he was about to jump at Seungri and tear him apart.713Please respect copyright.PENANACWozZsVFJr
"Well, maybe," said 713Please respect copyright.PENANAfIf5G55RlZ
G-Dragon. "The thing is, the day Zoey went missing, she and I had a talk713Please respect copyright.PENANAMQglhVsdmw
in the park about the same thing. She figured out that I liked her so 713Please respect copyright.PENANARCeaeHRypm
she told me to break things up with Zoey."713Please respect copyright.PENANAvUvHJ0VrqR
"And why didn't you do that sooner?" TOP asked.713Please respect copyright.PENANAdBNKUlDgIw
"When I saw Daesung and 713Please respect copyright.PENANAiOvx09REOr
Sam so close the next day, I couldn't help it. I had a feeling they 713Please respect copyright.PENANAd8YaT5g2HQ
kissed though I didn't see it for myself. That's what made me so mad."713Please respect copyright.PENANAN01SoauVSW
"And you still are," said Taeyang.713Please respect copyright.PENANAnhclbjeqDL
G-Dragon didn't answer 713Please respect copyright.PENANAEWV06a6VI7
as he looked down at his fingers, looking as if he was ready to bite 713Please respect copyright.PENANAQ774ZlRtds
them out of anger. "Yes," he replied slowly.713Please respect copyright.PENANAMPclrw6GYZ
"Oh, I get it now," said Seungri, as he looked up at the ceiling. "But I see no reason why Sam could be in the wrong here."713Please respect copyright.PENANAxgXoYFxLy3
"What do you mean?" 713Please respect copyright.PENANAWZ1Yef1q3j
G-Dragon asked as he looked up at Seungri. "Sam didn't tell me anything 713Please respect copyright.PENANANpLytlpyVj
about Daesung and yet she told me not be with Zoey anymore."713Please respect copyright.PENANAqXRDdNQPfZ
"She was just doing that713Please respect copyright.PENANAGjc8cs8DeP
to protect Zoey because she figured out that you like her instead of 713Please respect copyright.PENANA1wwrOZrfFl
her best friend," said Taeyang. "And besides, we all heard your little 713Please respect copyright.PENANAjfiCVcPHcm
argument. She and Daesung also talked and also agreed that they cannot 713Please respect copyright.PENANARlP4zTp5FX
be together."713Please respect copyright.PENANAYwFrTgKDCW
"I still don't believe all that," said G-Dragon.713Please respect copyright.PENANAJwZOYkEKmU
"You better believe it, Ji Yong," came Daesung's voice by the door. "Sam never meant to hurt anyone. Not even you."713Please respect copyright.PENANAzST1sA2M21
All the four BigBang 713Please respect copyright.PENANAgVmnauj161
members in the living area, turned towards the door. Daesung stood there713Please respect copyright.PENANA9MJ6Y6XYhh
looking at them. The others were a little surprised that they hadn't 713Please respect copyright.PENANAKc4qKSXknR
heard him come in.713Please respect copyright.PENANATgPj3VTOS8
"It's good you're here," said Seungri. "You also have a lot of explaining to do."713Please respect copyright.PENANAxX2R2JDDLt
"No, he doesn't," said G-Dragon.713Please respect copyright.PENANAfh4lJx70AB
"Yes, I do," said Daesung. "All this has to be cleared up once and for all."713Please respect copyright.PENANARWAsjCagqh
"True," said TOP. G-Dragon who sat beside him gave him an angry stare. TOP shrugged. "What?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAb6Hq04fbks
"I'm not going to stay 713Please respect copyright.PENANAOClzXsVuBL
here and listen to this," said G-Dragon as he stood up from the couch. 713Please respect copyright.PENANA0DckwJ91O6
"If you need me, I'll be in my room."713Please respect copyright.PENANANtkhhORxug
"No wait, you have to hear me out," said Daesung.713Please respect copyright.PENANAdfjQecNzJZ
"No, I don't."713Please respect copyright.PENANA27bOmxBSb2
Before G-Dragon could 713Please respect copyright.PENANAEh9S5mHAEJ
take a step in the direction of his room, TOP held his arm and pulled 713Please respect copyright.PENANAvuXCzsYyVC
him down. G-Dragon sat right back on the couch.713Please respect copyright.PENANAnci4UplrDh
"You aren't going anyway," said TOP.713Please respect copyright.PENANARdxlXn2ZDI
"Come on, man, seriously!" G-Dragon complained.713Please respect copyright.PENANA7LP9pATUVX
"Let's hear what Daesung has to say, alright?" Taeyang suggested.713Please respect copyright.PENANA8ZiYAa6pND
G-Dragon folded his arms713Please respect copyright.PENANAOxrCqGcMer
and looked at the others like an angry child who was told to do 713Please respect copyright.PENANAQD6uOyVB0Y
something that he didn't want to do. He finally rolled his eyes and 713Please respect copyright.PENANAJMp4LiZueX
stared at the ceiling.713Please respect copyright.PENANAbHEuATJo7A
"Fine," he said. Then he looked at Daesung. "Go ahead."713Please respect copyright.PENANAaPRG5Tlev5
Daesung came into the 713Please respect copyright.PENANAemtYPq9R3g
living area and didn't take a seat. He stood there in front of the TV 713Please respect copyright.PENANA9MG659L6jZ
for everyone to get his attention. His eyes locked with G-Dragon's.713Please respect copyright.PENANA4CJ7gDjSHH
"Look, I know you're 713Please respect copyright.PENANA1uVrU73YUu
probably mad and want to kill me right now," started Daesung. "But first713Please respect copyright.PENANALOibH6X6i8
thing's first, I had no idea that you had something for Sam and she 713Please respect copyright.PENANAqMpkbSxcPK
never told me anything either."713Please respect copyright.PENANA8VIvTPJc8Q
"Do you really like her?" G-Dragon asked, looking at Daesung with so much intent.713Please respect copyright.PENANAPI1Xm4TynU
"Yes, I won't deny it. I thought she and I might make our relationship work, but she didn't think that way."713Please respect copyright.PENANA50e4qOVv91
"Why?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAAidj3sHfRN
"She just felt like it 713Please respect copyright.PENANAUr7mIMCwPF
wasn't going to work. That's what she told me. She wasn't going to stay 713Please respect copyright.PENANAGdlULsVfzS
here for long. And judging by that, she doesn't look like one who thinks713Please respect copyright.PENANALlk02gJvwQ
long distance relationships will ever work out."713Please respect copyright.PENANACs22GJzTMb
"Then, why did you kiss her?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAHCnaawSSv2
"Because I know I'll 713Please respect copyright.PENANA2OSYcKCek8
never get a chance to do so. Sam is a great person and calling her great713Please respect copyright.PENANA5oj06NLJBF
is an understatement because she is way beyond that. And I see 713Please respect copyright.PENANAbXZyYbMxwo
something in her that I've never seen in any other girl before. I could 713Please respect copyright.PENANA7TVpW5qEfL
tell you also see it in her too. She is also one person who wouldn't 713Please respect copyright.PENANA0BaetQMePS
want to hurt anyone either.713Please respect copyright.PENANAFDf0UW63Cq
"Maybe that's why she 713Please respect copyright.PENANAtYahCG6XsS
didn't want anything to do with me either because she knew you would 713Please respect copyright.PENANAxm3JSwUpJm
also get hurt. But unfortunately, you already had a hunch about our kiss713Please respect copyright.PENANA4sn7aUH8Dt
and I could see that it really hurt you a lot."713Please respect copyright.PENANAsz2GC1hSwR
"Ya, it did," said G-Dragon as he looked somewhere else, his mind on Sam.713Please respect copyright.PENANAiyqeIH5frG
"Now, are you going to talk to her?" Daesung asked.713Please respect copyright.PENANAc6iaUiBUVz
"What?" G-Dragon turned to look back at Daesung with a confused look on his face.713Please respect copyright.PENANAuICWpGzurF
"Aren't you going to talk to Sam?" Daesung asked again. "All this wasn't entirely her fault."713Please respect copyright.PENANAbFhTw30G2F
"I know."713Please respect copyright.PENANAgaTXsio7zI
"So, you will talk to her, then?" TOP asked.713Please respect copyright.PENANAy5pK4Jrx1M
"I'll think about it."713Please respect copyright.PENANAeApIhc3dch
"No, no, no!" Seungri 713Please respect copyright.PENANAskhEbv9FbD
waved his finger at G-Dragon. "That's it! You're always stubborn and you713Please respect copyright.PENANAqz6FY3dBR4
want things to be done your way. Go and take a shower. We're going to 713Please respect copyright.PENANAOmIIKlw6MS
the mall."713Please respect copyright.PENANAZZD5bO8KhY
Everyone turned to look at Seungri and wondered if he had hit his head or something.713Please respect copyright.PENANAfCMPsdEH61
"Huh?" Taeyang shook his head, trying to understand if he had heard right. "Did you just say the mall?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAfoKgiZILZv
"Ya," said Seungri, 713Please respect copyright.PENANA3cF2FpdWxE
shaking his head. "We're going to the mall. Sam is there and I think 713Please respect copyright.PENANADKhJxqiDlE
this will be a good time for the two of them to talk."713Please respect copyright.PENANANUF3HeSvlP
"No way! I'm not going to the mall," said G-Dragon. "What am I going to say? I need more time to think about it."713Please respect copyright.PENANAFe1Hre4Oq0
"There is no time to 713Please respect copyright.PENANA4WT1FXzMlx
think about it," said TOP. "I'm not going to allow you to keep on doing 713Please respect copyright.PENANAcYtraU44FP
this to Sam. It's not right at all."713Please respect copyright.PENANAHsEJ6cTJfh
"It's best you go, GD," said Daesung. "And we are all going with you so that you have no reason to escape."713Please respect copyright.PENANAuSVimLwsCc
"No way," said G-Dragon. "You will have to force me into the shower if I'm leaving for the mall."713Please respect copyright.PENANAifroJKcf4i
"We're your best 713Please respect copyright.PENANAeQhcpLdCax
friends, so, no hard feelings," said Taeyang with a smirk on his face. 713Please respect copyright.PENANA1ZEHNcwDSs
He addressed the others, "guys, let's take him to the shower."713Please respect copyright.PENANAtZBQG1qknC
"Wait! What!" G-Dragon looked horrified as the others came and quickly surrounded him. And there was no way of trying to escape.713Please respect copyright.PENANAMmDclP8uEZ

Zoey's P.O.V713Please respect copyright.PENANATBkavPxs2o
I came out of the black 713Please respect copyright.PENANAK2pkx7HxMr
Mercedes as it stopped directly in front of the mall. I quickly put my 713Please respect copyright.PENANAvVcRo0PiFe
shades on as I walked towards the entrance and I heard screams behind 713Please respect copyright.PENANASneZDTnNne
me. I smiled at the reaction and turned around to see a group of young 713Please respect copyright.PENANAC1a8HwBuqZ
teenagers, obviously having a fun time at the mall, giggling and waving 713Please respect copyright.PENANAsm8yHztRPv
at me. I smiled and waved back and they screamed even more. I continued 713Please respect copyright.PENANAeoyGZZCAkJ
on my way into the mall, always liking the feeling of being recognized 713Please respect copyright.PENANAuxDGsls3c6
by my fans.713Please respect copyright.PENANAAmVaE53dt5
I pulled out my phone from my purse as I went on the escalator and called Jehan.713Please respect copyright.PENANAm9ZL7KbbG1
"I'm guessing you're already here," said Jehan as he picked up the call.713Please respect copyright.PENANAKljUxyMI0f
"Yes. Where are you?" I asked.713Please respect copyright.PENANAII61tYbfuw
"I'm at the Rolex store. Just go up the escalator and keep on moving forward. You'll find the store to your right."713Please respect copyright.PENANApFL6ckYz4c
"Okay."713Please respect copyright.PENANAsCNkbWrawO
"Did you bring what I asked for?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAG53CL0q5NI
I sighed in irritation. "I'm not that dumb not to bring it."713Please respect copyright.PENANAlVTtdRDUi2
"I was just asking. As much as you are blonde, I know you're good enough to blackmail me over the teddy bear."713Please respect copyright.PENANAr3XpYAFEnc
"Well, I'm glad you 713Please respect copyright.PENANAbFVVdbr0B8
think I can blackmail you," I said as I reached the top and walked away 713Please respect copyright.PENANAKx7S6UNsBG
from the escalator, walking ahead down the wide spaced hall as he had 713Please respect copyright.PENANARljXSb3z7H
instructed. "And for the record, I'm not blonde. I'm actually a whole 713Please respect copyright.PENANAXgnmdDlTnd
lot smarter than you think."713Please respect copyright.PENANA9f4IPNvjVr
"Just get over here," said Jehan, also sounding irritated and cutting the call.713Please respect copyright.PENANAD3wQL7mydP
"Mr Grumpy is such a 713Please respect copyright.PENANAGeDIgab1ri
pain in the butt," I muttered as I put my phone away and looked around 713Please respect copyright.PENANAkYU4x9XUhJ
for the Rolex store. It didn't take too long to find it.713Please respect copyright.PENANARzAapnyj2n
When I went into the 713Please respect copyright.PENANAG3soQzDvTz
fancy looking store showcasing fancy looking watches, I found Jehan by 713Please respect copyright.PENANAJjlnjbPqo9
the counter, looking down at watches through the glass case.713Please respect copyright.PENANAFM5MdFHz3C
I stood right beside him and looked down at the watches.713Please respect copyright.PENANAjwit9AvLtn
"If I were you, I would go for that one," I said as I pointed at one of the watches.713Please respect copyright.PENANArZBMpgEmcO
"I don't need your opinion with anything, Zoey," said Jehan, his emerald green eyes looking at me.713Please respect copyright.PENANApXOgDNreOc
I shivered. Despite his 713Please respect copyright.PENANAbzxWxLNDQI
good looks, he had a stare in his eyes that could make you drop dead in 713Please respect copyright.PENANAGjDt9H1lWL
seconds. I wondered why such a handsome man like him, could be so hard 713Please respect copyright.PENANAySiCrXZr6N
to the core. As much as it was scary, he gave me butterflies in my 713Please respect copyright.PENANASgDSv1GP0L
stomach. Which to me is totally creepy.713Please respect copyright.PENANAOSJqFFczxz
"Now, that you're here," said Jehan, as he turned to fully look at me. "I can now get what I want."713Please respect copyright.PENANAIMeXVZPWTc
"May I ask why you sent this teddy bear to me?" I asked.713Please respect copyright.PENANAgk0rERQbSY
"Why do you need to 713Please respect copyright.PENANAnLc28is2Lv
know?" Jehan asked as he stepped closer. He was too close that I could 713Please respect copyright.PENANArxiUZQrDrq
feel his breath on me. I almost trembled by his close presence.713Please respect copyright.PENANAOkuHnFoaXj
"Well, I need to know 713Please respect copyright.PENANAQaZ5c7RPyI
what you're up to, don't you think?" I asked, standing my ground. Him 713Please respect copyright.PENANAWps3HJifej
being so close to me almost made my legs turn to jelly.713Please respect copyright.PENANAZUsPjD4ilK
"And tell me, why should713Please respect copyright.PENANAiuOFxibxrS
I tell you?" He leaned in closer. This time he spoke so softly that my 713Please respect copyright.PENANAjqQpXg5cTx
heart fluttered. With that deep husky voice of his and his French 713Please respect copyright.PENANAdEcjAuStm2
accent, I was completely drawn to him. And not to mention his musky 713Please respect copyright.PENANA6oGKL5O6wK
cologne, yum. It was just delicious.713Please respect copyright.PENANAUqFSp4eCYT
"I...eh..." I looked him713Please respect copyright.PENANA943UmDWCBS
in the eye and tried to focus but I couldn't. I cleared my throat. 713Please respect copyright.PENANAXkO8LE5Hk0
"It's not fair. First, I came with that box from Paris. And then you 713Please respect copyright.PENANAmRUMwAm0wT
sent me a teddy which is highly unusual given that you don't look like 713Please respect copyright.PENANAnR2Te5TVda
the kind who would send such a thing."713Please respect copyright.PENANAaRnmoZv8aT
"Oh, really?" Jehan 713Please respect copyright.PENANASYWOqyH4Tl
raised his eyebrow at me. I had to admit, he looked kind of hot when he 713Please respect copyright.PENANA7WxXfHAALk
did so. "What makes you think I couldn't send such a cute teddy bear?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAuTTax0MaFt
"I don't know." I 713Please respect copyright.PENANAsIPWz2hIT7
shrugged my shoulders. "You just don't seem like the guy who would. And 713Please respect copyright.PENANAak1RYt02Y0
it was kind of weird if you ask me. But answer my question. What are you713Please respect copyright.PENANAkJjVDDn334
up to?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAWmLwc6Hd5t
Jehan gave me a smile that made me blush that I had to look down on the floor so that he wouldn't notice.713Please respect copyright.PENANAHkGWJZ6NGK
"Fine, I'll tell you," said Jehan. "Let's go and have a little something to eat, shall we? We can talk from there."713Please respect copyright.PENANA4K24X2URvW
"Whoa! Wait a minute," I said as I backed away from him, a little surprised. "You're willing to tell me?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAfsBqFkmZuy
"What's the matter with that?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAgM5a4fLZiT
"I thought you would be hard to convince given that you're so mean."713Please respect copyright.PENANAcjBGvM5Sm2
"Don't test my patience,713Please respect copyright.PENANAttPvYJaFGN
Zoey," said Jehan, his voice getting restless. "Just because I want to 713Please respect copyright.PENANAToAlGO1Pnl
tell you, doesn't mean you can take all this like a joke. Besides, I 713Please respect copyright.PENANAtTNtvdDLej
think you deserve to you know."713Please respect copyright.PENANAO7XbS6s1Ob
"Well, yes, I do."713Please respect copyright.PENANAu36KOa4Fpl

followed her to the Rolex store. I was just glad that she hadn't noticed713Please respect copyright.PENANAJnKUIRuHXM
them. We were close by looking for Derrick's brother when the guards 713Please respect copyright.PENANA56qlxI5baH
told us where Zoey was. We decided to go to the store opposite from 713Please respect copyright.PENANAlDva76GyXO
where they were and keep an eye on them from now on.713Please respect copyright.PENANApQwbGmY3Vi
"The man is so handsome," said Lee as she looked out the window. "I still can't believe that he is a bad guy."713Please respect copyright.PENANAMmcGFxAHZm
"Believe me, he is," I said as I looked at a nice beige top on a hanger and then took a brief glance out the window.713Please respect copyright.PENANAFWKdctiGqH
"But how did you know 713Please respect copyright.PENANAmT2VpHcjZW
that's Derrick's brother? I mean, you haven't seen him before and that 713Please respect copyright.PENANAJwibMV3hto
photo you showed me never revealed his face."713Please respect copyright.PENANA6XOJFNGswK
"True. It's because he looks so much like Derrick."713Please respect copyright.PENANAJ2lPCs240H
Lee turned to look at me with her mouth wide open. "For real! Do you mean, like twins?"713Please respect copyright.PENANA1uHX9H4ARd
"Well, ya," I said as I 713Please respect copyright.PENANAjPrO3jrUf3
looked at Derrick's brother who was standing so close to Zoey through 713Please respect copyright.PENANAEMIt4CR86y
the window. "Maybe they are twins. They look so much alike. Except, 713Please respect copyright.PENANAV01y8uTHgU
Derrick has blue eyes and short brown curly hair."713Please respect copyright.PENANA44zBMYC09e
Lee turned to the window713Please respect copyright.PENANA9mzcwaK3oh
and I could tell she was observing Derrick's brother. "If he looks like713Please respect copyright.PENANA1p6pbAqp92
that, I can easily picture how Derrick looks like."713Please respect copyright.PENANAqAyEyGpbti
"He's handsome too. Looks like it runs in the family."713Please respect copyright.PENANAF8041XUNA5
"Tell me about it. Too bad their mindsets are completely different."713Please respect copyright.PENANA2NJcZZ9q3R
"Derrick did say he and his brother are completely different that they don't easily get along."713Please respect copyright.PENANAGDHjyJEAJO
"Figures," said Lee as she went back to looking at clothes. "I wonder what he wants that teddy bear for."713Please respect copyright.PENANASc3IBPlG56
"I'm also wondering too," I said as I continued to be on high alert.713Please respect copyright.PENANAhmgmZSEzFo
Then, Zoey and Derrick's brother were walking out of the store. I hit Lee on the shoulder and she looked out the window.713Please respect copyright.PENANAil6LG7i3WN
"Come on, let's go," I said and the two of us went out of the store.713Please respect copyright.PENANA2Ox68XXOyi
We made sure to keep a 713Please respect copyright.PENANAUXR9BqUUlG
reasonable distance between Zoey and Derrick's brother as we followed 713Please respect copyright.PENANANCi9nIU7uG
them. Lucky for us, there were a lot of people around, so if either of 713Please respect copyright.PENANAkKQynRinqi
the two ever had a chance to look behind them, they wouldn't actually 713Please respect copyright.PENANApixpYc8QPo
see us properly and we could easily pretend to walk away.713Please respect copyright.PENANAJrTdnHsSyO
They went down the 713Please respect copyright.PENANAgy5vr1rUMj
escalators and we also followed. They reached the ground floor, took a 713Please respect copyright.PENANAReZaTSjcW6
corner and went into some fancy looking Chinese restaurant. We stood 713Please respect copyright.PENANAGqyRg8SrCx
outside waiting at a nearby store to see where they were going to sit.713Please respect copyright.PENANAI5H3MMT8HF
They were led by a 713Please respect copyright.PENANAEy0JWT7AZe
smartly dressed waiter to a table in the middle of the restaurant. 713Please respect copyright.PENANANVwW65qCIU
Derrick's brother acting like a gentleman, helped Zoey with her chair 713Please respect copyright.PENANAxKKJnJkH8u
and they were smiling at each other as though they were friends. I bet 713Please respect copyright.PENANAsB5PWXIRty
they did that just to look normal in front of everyone in the 713Please respect copyright.PENANA6y2Cxj84Dl
restaurant.713Please respect copyright.PENANAxYeCMb2b4a
"What are we going to do now?" Lee asked as she looked at me.713Please respect copyright.PENANAg0eaggGEad
"I don't know. We surely can't stay here forever. We need to get that teddy away from Derrick's brother," I said.713Please respect copyright.PENANAQXlw2Sv8sX
"Why don't I just join them? In that way, I can ruin their plans if I'm around."713Please respect copyright.PENANAWRwabnEJer
"That sounds like a good idea, but won't he get suspicious?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAj3jNMJI7Eq
"I doubt it. But we have to do something. I'm not going to let that teddy bear get away."713Please respect copyright.PENANAbDnY2qNQoV
"Me neither. But what to713Please respect copyright.PENANAb8hOI0XCkp
do?" I tapped my chin with my index finger impatiently as I looked 713Please respect copyright.PENANAYKVMNKO401
through the restaurant's window at Zoey and Derrick's brother.713Please respect copyright.PENANAcFzSlKyiFF
I felt my phone beep in my purse and I quickly removed it. Seungri was calling.713Please respect copyright.PENANAXl1KFO0KRj
"Hey, Seungri, what's up?" I answered, turning away from the restaurant.713Please respect copyright.PENANAMHkAs8g7AJ
"I wanted to ask, are you still at the mall?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAMzZwZjodmk
My mind started working. "Yes, I am. What's wrong?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAedjvuZkZl5
"Nothing. I just wanted to ask. I'm heading there right now and I was hoping if I could join you."713Please respect copyright.PENANAxuLTuPx7zw
Bingo! If Seungri could come here, he might just interrupt Zoey's meeting. And I knew just what to do.713Please respect copyright.PENANAM2dDoyD2xO
"Uh, ya, you can. How far are you from the mall?"713Please respect copyright.PENANApyWtBBTAjt
"I'll be there in two minutes, I'm almost there."713Please respect copyright.PENANAJLIaS8zeu1
"Perfect. Call me when you get here." I cut the call.713Please respect copyright.PENANAlLC4o8NQlU
"Are you crazy?" Lee looked at me with a surprised look on her face. "Why do you want Seungri here?"713Please respect copyright.PENANA20Jd16dFsf
"Don't worry. Seungri 713Please respect copyright.PENANAU2Vfw773w6
will be perfect for the plan. I'm afraid Derrick's brother will get too 713Please respect copyright.PENANAeHLhEAfQ5O
suspicious if you go in there. Besides, Zoey knows you went out with me 713Please respect copyright.PENANAg6kO7Tugoy
and she will know something fishy is going on."713Please respect copyright.PENANAMySVj6UW8X
"Well, okay," said Lee as she went back to looking at the restaurant. "Let's just hope it will work."713Please respect copyright.PENANATHpV4GUDv4
"I hope so too."713Please respect copyright.PENANA0qfMucR78W
***713Please respect copyright.PENANAy6yHozUKhx
Zoey's P.O.V713Please respect copyright.PENANAH3jCEWcycg
I looked at the menu and713Please respect copyright.PENANAOhhR6fENev
I realised that I wasn't so hungry. Maybe I was just too anxious to 713Please respect copyright.PENANA16Vt39woTF
figure out what Jehan's plans were. I looked at him as he sat across the713Please respect copyright.PENANAa0IIGgu8I3
table, looking at the menu. He must have felt my eyes on him because he713Please respect copyright.PENANAad2iIoEqJQ
looked up at me.713Please respect copyright.PENANA9qI1Wb03c5
"Aren't you going to order?" Jehan asked, as he went to looking back at the menu.713Please respect copyright.PENANARhcgBgRCxC
"No. I realise I'm not that hungry anymore," I said.713Please respect copyright.PENANAF9AlXZ5ehL
"Why?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAFjzogO5cKH
I put the menu aside and leaned forward on the table. That caught his attention. He looked at me with an eyebrow raised.713Please respect copyright.PENANAyJWUETdkM4
"I just want to know what you do. And by the looks of it, it's pretty serious."713Please respect copyright.PENANATdxYTTpFzy
"I'm glad you figured that out." Jehan gave me a mocking smile.713Please respect copyright.PENANA3S7rTDCpnN
I growled. "Stop that, will you?"713Please respect copyright.PENANA3sapeUGPqq
"What?"713Please respect copyright.PENANA2uXtS1ojA0
"Mocking me. And just so you know, it's not funny."713Please respect copyright.PENANAhRxsvHIDEP
"I'll try not to next 713Please respect copyright.PENANAMWjVBXVdqh
time." He turned to the waiter who had been waiting for our order. Jehan713Please respect copyright.PENANAXfH7xFZxrC
ordered the same meal for the both of us. The waiter left immediately.713Please respect copyright.PENANAeNpvv3t66T
"Now, are you going to tell me?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAl6aISbQ7tF
"Yes, I'll," said Jehan. "I figured you deserve to know. Only if you do one thing."713Please respect copyright.PENANAge4tx9ncmR
"Not tell anyone."713Please respect copyright.PENANAycYFTLbXwE
Jehan smiled widely this time around. "Exactly."713Please respect copyright.PENANAVY4Jvy3Eeb
"Okay." I was now attentive. "Spill."713Please respect copyright.PENANAY04Zp8bfxH
"I smuggle diamonds."713Please respect copyright.PENANArYl0s3aDIg
My eyes almost popped out of their sockets. That was sudden. I didn't expect him to be so direct.713Please respect copyright.PENANAJDz16o0WZo
"Surprised that I was direct?" Jehan asked as he looked at me giving me goosebumps.713Please respect copyright.PENANAsGwaY5TtkU
"Well....ya," I leaned back on my chair still recovering from what he said. "I expected something different."713Please respect copyright.PENANA780z2cOQAd
"Like what? Drugs or gun trafficking?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAevZdxSs0hJ
"That's what a lot of bad guys are involved in nowadays. I wasn't expecting that you smuggle diamonds."713Please respect copyright.PENANAXZaJBHPoZe
The waiter came with our713Please respect copyright.PENANAnXcgiOkLqi
appetisers, Chinese dumplings. I have always liked dumplings. I got a 713Please respect copyright.PENANADZlX8gRcQW
pair of chopsticks and put a dumpling in my mouth.713Please respect copyright.PENANAe5zprApuo4
"Yes. I know it's a surprise, but that's what I do. I smuggle in diamonds from country to country."713Please respect copyright.PENANA20UARFuOBk
"But you don't look like the kind who would do such things."713Please respect copyright.PENANA6vsYVkN1Me
"Too bad, I am. And there is nothing you can do to change that."713Please respect copyright.PENANAoGo2C4QWQ8
"Oh, don't worry about me," I said raising my hands in surrender. "I wasn't even going to try."713Please respect copyright.PENANAI1Bcf8qoxX
"Good girl," said Jehan, as he smirked. His smirk made me blush and I quickly looked down at my food.713Please respect copyright.PENANAzgHJlvRXH6
"So, the little teddy has diamonds in it?" I asked, putting another dumpling in my mouth.713Please respect copyright.PENANAY3LgCpoka9
"Yes, millions worth of tiny diamonds."713Please respect copyright.PENANAVBzvJlbiEu
"Is that why you're so rich?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAtyCNSFqY8E
"I was born in a rich family. We own a business but I did all this just to become more richer and more powerful."713Please respect copyright.PENANAAhqTd6T96W
"That's being greedy, don't you think?"713Please respect copyright.PENANA8Mca6G0PHf
Jehan gave a little laugh. "That's the whole point. Power is everything."713Please respect copyright.PENANAtWuovHonYu
I gulped. He was giving 713Please respect copyright.PENANAaZaChtvwFl
me that evil look of his again. I nodded my head and prayed that I would713Please respect copyright.PENANAEH4Zxtq3gC
manage to get out of this lunch, alive.713Please respect copyright.PENANAGFlTvRUuPz
***713Please respect copyright.PENANADus2WUNQRA
Sam's P.O.V713Please respect copyright.PENANAl8kaR0S8vJ
I was waiting by the 713Please respect copyright.PENANAH6sFFI2zMq
entrance when I saw Seungri's lamborgini park in the parking lot and 713Please respect copyright.PENANAyNg8yAlr07
another car park right next to it. My mouth dropped. Was that Taeyang's 713Please respect copyright.PENANAytvZVmZCMM
car? What was he doing here?713Please respect copyright.PENANAJICQLZnzka
Seungri came out of the 713Please respect copyright.PENANAulIt8qkaRO
car and Daesung came out of the passenger's seat. Taeyang came out of 713Please respect copyright.PENANALFVartKGqT
his car and TOP from the passenger's side. Surprisingly, G-Dragon came 713Please respect copyright.PENANAi97DCnY182
out of the back seat of Taeyang's car. I felt something in me break when713Please respect copyright.PENANADK86122cyT
I saw G-Dragon and Daesung. The whole BigBang was here! This wasn't 713Please respect copyright.PENANAN3QLLNDwmL
what I was expecting.713Please respect copyright.PENANAQq8yzoAemu
I trembled. What am I 713Please respect copyright.PENANASZERTSPWe7
going to do now? I was only expecting Seungri here. This was just 713Please respect copyright.PENANAEhhmwGhspX
fantastic! I had to think of something quick or else Zoey was going to 713Please respect copyright.PENANAeBFSrWclXf
give Mr Teddy away.713Please respect copyright.PENANAxprdnhFLUZ
"Hey, Sam," said Seungri as they came to the entrance. "Were you waiting for me?"713Please respect copyright.PENANA5OZla46xHR
"I...eh..." I looked at Seungri, then at the others. What to do! What to do!713Please respect copyright.PENANA8f8M3TxGyT
"Sam, are you okay?" Taeyang asked. "You don't look at all happy to see us."713Please respect copyright.PENANA2Af08FrEMJ
"I, no....I," I didn't 713Please respect copyright.PENANAEPZKJn2zHU
know what to say. Now that all five of them were here, this was going to713Please respect copyright.PENANAMtd64GmSoc
get a lot more complicated. What the hell was I going to do?713Please respect copyright.PENANAp7CZcXQY7P
"I was only expecting 713Please respect copyright.PENANA2xbEoGQG7X
Seungri here so I'm a little surprised," I answered as I looked at 713Please respect copyright.PENANAkerYzpx9SJ
Daesung and G-Dragon who stood there staring at me. It felt so weird 713Please respect copyright.PENANAiBPUHSCY8M
seeing the two of them together.713Please respect copyright.PENANAdTNUYvOABk
"We could leave if you want us to," said G-Dragon, who looked more than happy to do so.713Please respect copyright.PENANAQ9JXRLooZT
"No, no one is going anywhere," said TOP.713Please respect copyright.PENANAIhwa7ERqh1
"Sorry if we surprised you like this, Sam," said Daesung. "But, you and G-Dragon need to talk."713Please respect copyright.PENANAG3HOwzXCqp
"Talk?" I raised an eyebrow looking confused. When I looked at G-Dragon, it finally came to me. "Oh, I get it."713Please respect copyright.PENANA604A1Qx6il
"So, will it be okay to leave you two alone?" Taeyang asked.713Please respect copyright.PENANA8VpyXls40q
"Ummm, we can talk later," I said quickly turning to look at Taeyang. "Right now, I need your help."713Please respect copyright.PENANA44k4MMICDe
"What's up?" Seungri and Daesung asked at the same time, both looking concerned.713Please respect copyright.PENANA0YG0qrJwpg
"Come with me," I said 713Please respect copyright.PENANAO8VzAUHDDC
as I led the way into the mall, heading towards the Chinese restaurant. 713Please respect copyright.PENANA5ICi7GMSie
Next to the shop was a store where Lee was hiding so as to keep an eye 713Please respect copyright.PENANAAb8SofAZjy
on Zoey and Derrick's brother.713Please respect copyright.PENANAuuifFqeSFO
When we reached Lee, she turned around and her face went pale upon seeing the others.713Please respect copyright.PENANANuFLyZLJrq
"Okay, it looks like you really weren't looking forward to seeing us," said G-Dragon, looking irritated and folding his arms.713Please respect copyright.PENANAB9yrKUbAKP
"Hi, guys. You're 713Please respect copyright.PENANABlVJJ2Hduv
right," said Lee. "Sam told me Seungri was coming here. She didn't 713Please respect copyright.PENANAV1yvDpU2rE
mention that the whole crew would be coming too."713Please respect copyright.PENANAuvCCwoJf55
"Trust me," I said as I looked at Lee. "I had no idea they were all coming."713Please respect copyright.PENANAb2v1UyQ51z
"But what's the emergency?" Taeyang asked.713Please respect copyright.PENANAt8vInQQiBx
I could feel Lee's eyes on me and I could tell she was scared of telling them the truth. So, I had to do the talking.713Please respect copyright.PENANAlusKbnTc5u
"It's Zoey," I said. "Remember the guy she met at the café and who had also sent that teddy bear?"713Please respect copyright.PENANA8auv1Wsuoh
The five BigBang members all nodded their heads.713Please respect copyright.PENANAsOnGlmOG5r
"Well, if you look into 713Please respect copyright.PENANAO7fsYNRw0S
that restaurant," I said, pointing at the Chinese restaurant. "Zoey is 713Please respect copyright.PENANAD1L6fZ3S1A
with someone and I'm betting it's the same guy."713Please respect copyright.PENANAqCmH40sPbd
The five all turned to 713Please respect copyright.PENANAnYumLky3LQ
look through the glass window of the restaurant and they easily spotted 713Please respect copyright.PENANA6kdUepuPpG
Zoey and Derrick's brother. Lee nudged me on my side with her elbow and 713Please respect copyright.PENANAiY7NypUoXU
gave me a what-do-you-think-you're-doing look.713Please respect copyright.PENANA4C0M1oijNl
"Wait, a minute," said TOP. "I've seen that guy before."713Please respect copyright.PENANAQBwmPqH1C4
Lee and I turned our attention to TOP and asked at the same time, "you have?"713Please respect copyright.PENANA6QeGSEG1vb
"Ya, in Paris," answered TOP. "Don't you recognise him too, GD?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAiZnLNaqLNa
"Yes, I do," said G-Dragon looking through the glass window. "We met him at the fashion show. I'm surprised why he is here."713Please respect copyright.PENANAomXJi7WZKd
"We were also wondering 713Please respect copyright.PENANAeT9tDFsqmf
too," I said. "Lee and I were planning to go in there and talk with 713Please respect copyright.PENANARAa9Ay5j1m
them, but decided that I would rather not."713Please respect copyright.PENANAaeYGiGgpP1
"Why?" Daesung asked.713Please respect copyright.PENANAJstlIaX0LI
"Well, Zoey seems to be 713Please respect copyright.PENANAwkd77v4fbg
having a good time and I didn't want to bother her with my presence 713Please respect copyright.PENANANBSF4q3eDj
since we argued. But then again, I'm so curious about the guy she is 713Please respect copyright.PENANAZC5jboDBow
talking to. So I thought Seungri might help out."713Please respect copyright.PENANAmmMW5yjHxy
"Aww, so sweet of you to think I could solve that out for you, my little kitty," said Seungri with a smile on his face.713Please respect copyright.PENANA0bDNwcftd5
"Huh? Wait a minute," 713Please respect copyright.PENANAMHBFqnnMr4
said G-Dragon, who had a confused look on his face. As he looked at 713Please respect copyright.PENANALOgfjJYdjf
Seungri. "I thought you always called Sam your panda."713Please respect copyright.PENANA0aPv7G4Xre
"Well, ya." Seungri shrugged. "She's my little kitty and my panda. Do you have a problem with that?"713Please respect copyright.PENANApdL4OPnnsW
"It's a little strange for you to call her your little kitty because I call her that."713Please respect copyright.PENANAN9nVD8k3vd
Everyone turned to look 713Please respect copyright.PENANAvQPogQWu2R
at G-Dragon. What was he saying? I was very surprised by all this. And 713Please respect copyright.PENANAicaeE7I8X7
my heart was pounding so hard in my chest. Wow. Was G-Dragon jealous or 713Please respect copyright.PENANAxGO7IkqncF
something? I couldn't help but feel flattered about it.713Please respect copyright.PENANALuLREO3G1m
"Looks like someone is jealous," said TOP, with a mocking smile on his face.713Please respect copyright.PENANAUinUzVHM0u
Lee giggled. "Tell me about it."713Please respect copyright.PENANAgRu9iBRjtf
"Here you're now 713Please respect copyright.PENANAVJXUA1rD4C
claiming that you're the one who's supposed to call Sam your little 713Please respect copyright.PENANAy1Xn6FyAUn
kitty when you're still mad at her," said Taeyang.713Please respect copyright.PENANAw4YdwbbOzA
"Can we not focus on that now and sort out the problem at hand?" G-Dragon asked avoiding our eyes.713Please respect copyright.PENANAlHX17bMDPF
"I'll talk with G-Dragon713Please respect copyright.PENANA71bng5t9kH
later," I said. I turned to look at the restaurant as I felt myself 713Please respect copyright.PENANAb3JKLfQe4n
blush. They were almost done with their main meal. I had to do 713Please respect copyright.PENANAmF78PFpbiz
something, quick.713Please respect copyright.PENANAs14ufrVXmy
"Okay, fine, we will 713Please respect copyright.PENANAiWtxrHjkHV
mock GD later," said Seungri giving G-Dragon a playful smile. "I'll go 713Please respect copyright.PENANAyw7K42Mo9O
into the restaurant and meet the guy."713Please respect copyright.PENANAOKxqtIqyHi
Yes. Finally. I thought 713Please respect copyright.PENANAqO09v6YmpC
he would never go. After G-Dragon's little jealous showdown, I thought 713Please respect copyright.PENANAz3zNMPIbao
everything was going to be delayed.713Please respect copyright.PENANA95UpNkVgb3
"I'll come with you," said TOP. "I also would like to know who this guy is."713Please respect copyright.PENANArAxHHLVfBd
"We will wait out here," said Daesung.713Please respect copyright.PENANACoBcsvyQ4t
Seungri and TOP started their way towards the restaurant, while the rest of us just stood there like statues.713Please respect copyright.PENANA5TciR5pFC3
"So, are we going to stay here or what?" G-Dragon asked.713Please respect copyright.PENANAnGLZM1Sj9D
As much as I wanted to 713Please respect copyright.PENANAQVlXGvEFey
stay here and see what will go on with the others in the restaurant, I 713Please respect copyright.PENANAOZ6ys8vyh2
decided it was time for G-Dragon and I to talk.713Please respect copyright.PENANAVnQpY1E2jH
***713Please respect copyright.PENANAifW79K4IzX
Zoey's P.O.V713Please respect copyright.PENANA7lymHLg3Ae
As much as I tried to 713Please respect copyright.PENANA3ay0SAn2ve
enjoy this meal we were having, I couldn't wait to get out of this place713Please respect copyright.PENANAFsTWeObEKI
and just go back to the hotel. After my little talk with Jehan, I 713Please respect copyright.PENANAwKtcAZ4Dz6
haven't been able to talk again freely. I had been quiet throughout the 713Please respect copyright.PENANA3THw4vHORl
whole meal and I bet he also noticed it too.713Please respect copyright.PENANAHVal0cHRqB
"Have you finally decided to follow table manners or are you tired of talking to me?" Jehan asked.713Please respect copyright.PENANAevj5vdpO8R
"If by tired, you mean scared, then yes," I said as I finished my noodles on the plate.713Please respect copyright.PENANAnQ32liHf39
"Scared? Are you really that scared of me?" Jehan had a questioning look on his face.713Please respect copyright.PENANAKNeGIOXbL1
"Well, ya. Do you see the way you look at me sometimes? No, you don't. Silly of me for even asking."713Please respect copyright.PENANA1wOZPwZM2P
"Looks like you're getting all worked up for nothing, Zoey." Jehan got a napkin on the table and wiped the corners of his mouth.713Please respect copyright.PENANAtOqlcokuTF
"What do you want me to 713Please respect copyright.PENANAJPyaPMw7Jw
do? I just found out that you smuggle diamonds, which to me is very 713Please respect copyright.PENANAx3Ee95iPpf
illegal like drugs and gun trafficking. And I'm very scared that there 713Please respect copyright.PENANA9Lz5G4vQJi
are a lot of guns involved because you pointed one at me back in Paris."713Please respect copyright.PENANAOdei7jtQQj
"Don't blame me. You wanted to know what I was up to."713Please respect copyright.PENANAg4yytYANJX
"Well, you should have played hard to get. Given that look you give me, I wouldn't even have asked any further."713Please respect copyright.PENANAvkiSpkqBhP
Jehan shook his head and713Please respect copyright.PENANAmYE5nCEJ5w
surprisingly, he chuckled as he leaned back on his chair. "I wonder how713Please respect copyright.PENANALC80TDTb9x
your group members even put up with you. You're amusing yet so 713Please respect copyright.PENANAHxLlzAlxqk
annoying."713Please respect copyright.PENANAKEuWlFPXKp
"My group members and I get along just fine despite my drama and the petty fights we have."713Please respect copyright.PENANA9OWw1VG0Mf
"Mmm. I see that. Are you up for dessert?"713Please respect copyright.PENANApMkB3S3WaA
"Do you know what, I don't want dessert. I want to go back to the hotel if you don't mind."713Please respect copyright.PENANAUNWiRBdBxh
"You can leave if you give me the teddy bear," said Jehan as he outstretched his arm and opened his palm.713Please respect copyright.PENANAt9cx7TPjCB
"Wait," I said as I held my purse close with the teddy bear in it. "I need some assurance from you about something."713Please respect copyright.PENANAJDapQe7jU1
Jehan looked rritated and folded his arms. "What?"713Please respect copyright.PENANADLazTxVjuh
"Tell me this will be the last time you're going to tell me to do anything for you."713Please respect copyright.PENANAOvc3TjLG1P
Jehan looked at me and I could tell that he was studying me. "Why? You don't want to help me out anymore?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAaooEru2Dpx
"Heck no!" This time, I was a little loud and a few heads in the restaurant looked my way. I lowered my voice. "Sorry."713Please respect copyright.PENANARPCucRTxf9
Jehan looked unmoved by my reaction, but I could easily tell that in the inside, he was pretty pissed.713Please respect copyright.PENANAPpMDndo9mF
"Just so you know, this might probably be the last time you will ever see me again," said Jehan in a cool, calm tone.713Please respect copyright.PENANAE8nlA1oNvU
"For real?" I raised an eyebrow, not really believing that he was telling the truth.713Please respect copyright.PENANADmBNbtdMOg
"Yes, for real."713Please respect copyright.PENANA3W9ETi5HuC
"So, you aren't going to come back and threaten me, right?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAr2TIbEtncO
"Yes. Maybe we will meet713Please respect copyright.PENANAtVfZzYKvHT
someday in the future. The only reason why I threatened you was so that713Please respect copyright.PENANA1ZmxnAcnNR
you could carry those diamonds for me from Paris to Korea."713Please respect copyright.PENANAMl5vUS1lHY
"Why? Because we were using a private plane and there was less security?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAKhRJOC3Au5
"I'm impressed. You're actually smart."713Please respect copyright.PENANAKM3RI1RnkI
"I watch too many movies." I gave him a smile, though I didn't really mean it.713Please respect copyright.PENANAqRzoMAA8p6
"Figured. So, the teddy, please." Jehan had his arm outstretched again.713Please respect copyright.PENANA4Thvml4ET8
I took a deep breath. This was it. Once I give him the teddy, it will all be over and I can finally be in peace.713Please respect copyright.PENANA21thcQwwPJ
Just as I was about to open my purse and take out the small teddy, a voice I recognised came behind me.713Please respect copyright.PENANATQbafnl2j1
"Zoey, hey!"713Please respect copyright.PENANAu0qvhoKvS6
Seungri? I quickly 713Please respect copyright.PENANA7EAEtQcjII
turned around and standing at the door of the restaurant, stood Seungri 713Please respect copyright.PENANANnicRHHUDx
with TOP beside him. I was so horrified. Oh no! What were they doing 713Please respect copyright.PENANAFytebLG5SL
here?713Please respect copyright.PENANA4PDi2OyiLB
They came over to our 713Please respect copyright.PENANAi3EMWIpIrn
table and I still couldn't believe that they were here. I tried to put 713Please respect copyright.PENANA57t1ezmqj9
up a smile but so far, I couldn't. I looked over at Jehan who had a grim713Please respect copyright.PENANA1NpFOxQlfT
look on his face. This was not supposed to happen. What were we going 713Please respect copyright.PENANALOxQq4JLih
to do now?713Please respect copyright.PENANArVIcTBdLwd
"Hey, Zoey," said TOP. Then he turned to look at Jehan. "Mind if we sit?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAjr5X26a1bq
"Sure," said Jehan giving TOP a smile. "We met at the fashion show in Paris."713Please respect copyright.PENANA3hzRUN3Xbi
"Ya, we did," said TOP as he sat down and Seungri sat opposite him. "Your name again?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAfhwzvLg0v9
"Jehan."713Please respect copyright.PENANARKrE0x3r1L
"Nice to meet you," said Seungri. "I'm...."713Please respect copyright.PENANAsTkuAvDU2T
"There is no need for introductions, Seungri," said Jehan. "I already know who you are."713Please respect copyright.PENANAYh9FoYHxJf
"Good," said Seungri. "So, what brings you here?"713Please respect copyright.PENANAfBENsdr4eL
"I just came here to visit. I met Zoey again and decided to have lunch together."713Please respect copyright.PENANA4kI4q2BZb1
"Oh." Seungri nodded his head.713Please respect copyright.PENANA8g32JoEX6L
"Ya," I said as I took a glass of water beside me and drank from the cup.713Please respect copyright.PENANA121HZeMaQY
"Weren't you the same guy at the café with Zoey the other day?" TOP asked.713Please respect copyright.PENANActmkVwECsx
I almost spit out the 713Please respect copyright.PENANAqmymzsKqU0
water in my mouth but I tried not to. I ended up choking instead. The 713Please respect copyright.PENANAm0kmeDtmC8
three men all turned to look at me and I hit my chest as my eyes begun 713Please respect copyright.PENANAT8cashBwAn
to water.713Please respect copyright.PENANAE0MbJQefOf
"Are you okay, Zoey?" Seungri asked.713Please respect copyright.PENANA3aXaKlBRFU
"Ya, I'm fine," I said. How did they figure out that Jehan was the person I met at the café?713Please respect copyright.PENANA4KFVMSII3n
"Yes, Zoey and I met at the café the first day I got here," said Jehan, answering TOP's question.713Please respect copyright.PENANAYdFksklPoW
Jehan looked at me and I713Please respect copyright.PENANAL6fJnVdsz7
bet he was also wondering how the others could have figured out all 713Please respect copyright.PENANADlrVEenXj8
this. I gave him a look that said I had no idea how they did.713Please respect copyright.PENANAbgO3IUgLeK
"May I ask what you're 713Please respect copyright.PENANAjGzi6PXd01
doing here?" I asked looking at TOP and then at Seungri. This was 713Please respect copyright.PENANAqkYfQ5xoUx
getting frustrating and I didn't want them to be here anymore.713Please respect copyright.PENANApvfjfezv2K
"Oh, we just came here 713Please respect copyright.PENANAxZFHwHHNkc
to see if we could shop for a few things," said Seungri. "Then we saw 713Please respect copyright.PENANA8xcONjFowZ
you as we were walking by and decided to say hi."713Please respect copyright.PENANAzU5tcxLzHg
"Hope we didn't interrupt you with anything," said TOP. "You two seemed to be having a serious conversation."713Please respect copyright.PENANAkzfyHN2alZ
"No, you didn't," said Jehan.713Please respect copyright.PENANA4C2iRcpyX8
Then a phone rang. It was Jehan's phone. We were all silent at the table as Jehan looked at his phone.713Please respect copyright.PENANAGfEOoS6Hb3
"I think it's time to leave," said Jehan putting his phone on silent. "I have a business meeting to attend to."713Please respect copyright.PENANAaIeskUTa1Z
"Okay," I said. "We will meet some other time then before you leave for Paris."713Please respect copyright.PENANArn5TlcJqay
"Yes, we will," said 713Please respect copyright.PENANAy3oeLsekcp
Jehan as he pulled our his wallet and pulled the cash out to pay for the713Please respect copyright.PENANA1NwfWzPvkh
bill, leaving it on the table. He quickly stood up from his chair.713Please respect copyright.PENANA5DJoFbVrfS
"We will stay in touch," he said as he looked at me and then turned to face the others. "It was nice meeting you."713Please respect copyright.PENANAuaNpwE0qdv
"You too," said Seungri.713Please respect copyright.PENANARPo60Fx0Cj
Jehan gave a small smile713Please respect copyright.PENANAMM9Jm5qDoZ
and swiftly left the restaurant. I wanted to growl in frustration, but 713Please respect copyright.PENANALbNw4RNFTs
not in front of Seungri and TOP. When I thought I could finally give the713Please respect copyright.PENANAyXsGMd12Gh
teddy bear away, these two show up. Why was this happening to me?713Please respect copyright.PENANAEObUVOsddw
"He seemed kind of nice," said Seungri. "Okay, let's go shopping."713Please respect copyright.PENANAbsN69LTEJW
"Are you up for it, Zoey?" TOP asked, as he looked at me.713Please respect copyright.PENANAZtP94BGZrU
"Sounds fun," I said as enthusiastically as I could.713Please respect copyright.PENANAV4OYWLw4Zq
"Great, let's go," said Seungri and we all stood up the table and headed out of the restaurant.713Please respect copyright.PENANAabzqtZSv3u
I wondered how I was 713Please respect copyright.PENANAtviT327a7q
going to have fun when I knew what I had come here for hadn't gone as 713Please respect copyright.PENANAW2bCNytfQc
planned. And all that still meant that I still had a gun pointed to my 713Please respect copyright.PENANAEQ2qgJR3Lc
head until I give the teddy bear away.713Please respect copyright.PENANAUdH3ODQDrc
This was just great!
