I tapped my foot 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFqSXpnve3
impatiently onto the floor, not because I was waiting for the doors to 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5j1uCKuUjq
open. But because I couldn't figure out what to say when I finally got 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj9aVi2ZrzL
out. I was scratching my head as I thought of what to do. Was saying 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhO4GgW0Pe
"hi" or "how are you" going to help? I wasn't too sure how I was going 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNkQasv31Xm
to start this conversation.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9nFh6ldcwz
And besides, the person I908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP9FFCLYKqv
was about to meet, wasn't really expecting me to be here. So I better 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8z9QKEVmkN
had a reasonable explanation for coming, which I already had. Or else, I908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSFpEk1nxpV
might just kill myself out of embarrassment.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfHYo8TG0k
There was a small ding 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrPm5wIoqz
sound when the elevator stopped. I realised that I had finally arrived. I908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8jFBzjSwf
looked towards the doors as they started to slide open. I gulped. I 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcd1NWivXoV
hope everything was going to go fine like I expected it to.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2oLyvkzmXm
When the doors fully 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWLSp14XIWo
opened, I hesitated to walk out. But then, I stepped out quickly before I908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfwDbOpvhDC
even had the thought of chickening out at the last minute.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOMdmqilQT
"Zoey? What are you doing here?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVWJjNPI55
I was staring at 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLf4mcR432v
G-Dragon who was standing in the living area of his apartment. He looked908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDO90r84M2x
a little surprised by my sudden visit and I could see he was a little 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRhNareQgQ
disappointed too.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ02DABGCSbj
"Hi, GD," I said as I stood there. "I know you weren't really expecting me here."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1PI3wvZERl
"When I was told a lady had come to see me, I thought it might be Sam," said G-Dragon.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18a3lCG4JW
"Ya, I know." I was a little nervous as I played with my fingers. "I had to come and talk to you."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMD5dN2OZdi
"Please, do come in."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKsiSDw6EbD
"Thanks," I said as I walked into the living room and sat on the couch. G-Dragon sat right next to me.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuopJ7dUOdh
"Do you need anything?" he asked.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7YOshTBX1u
"No, thanks," I replied. "I'm good."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMG7kZLvfBU
"How's Sam doing?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihIBMX1o85
"Oh, she's fine," I replied, playing with the strap of my purse on my lap. "Don't you two talk anymore? Like over the phone?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt50ERJrbbx
"We do, but our 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS3tqo8FSaG
conversations don't last long." G-Dragon looked a little distant when he908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡof3wGQ0ns5
said that. And I could tell the thought of Sam had completely taken 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg279RzXpBu
over his mind.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07jRSt36OX
I didn't say anything for a moment as I thought of what to say next.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkjVicF6Pr
"I know you feel bad that Sam's been ignoring you lately," I said. "It's so unlike her to do so, trust me."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60qk9p2Nj8
G-Dragon leaned back on to the couch. "Do you have any idea why?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Jcpq2ygjR
"Since I know her so well, yes. I do."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjie0lSYRmB
"What is it then? To be honest, I feel like I've done something wrong for her to be ignoring me."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwJV75rowO
"She's not ignoring you, GD."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99iAfEZzCi
"What is she doing then?908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUGy2V0qBQ1
It's now been two days since we last had a real conversation. That was 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9lA15NqVn
after the issue with Jehan was sorted out at the arts centre."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡya7nLmofi5
I laughed when I remembered Jehan and his goons being arrested. "I'll never forget that day. It was awesome."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfz87BwEJKm
"Ya. And people can't stop talking about how they loved our performance. And since then, Sam doesn't talk to me anymore."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ7OYS0z0ef
With that last statement, I realised just how sad G-Dragon was with all this. And that's why I was here.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoIminxiAmK
I knew Sam had been 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDG8ywfQnC
ignoring G-Dragon the day after the arts center incident. She and I were908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKO7rxcVBDE
in the lounge going through social media, right after I came back from 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55uLBTslXW
the police station to give my statement. We kept on receiving messages 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHVwL8p260i
from fans and family back home because of our stunning performance the 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMsEnPenJYJ
night before. When her phone started to ring, she completely ignored the908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu2g42pG2I1
call. Her phone rang several times that day and it was so unlike her 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxOcqRsrUW
not to answer. When I checked who called, I grew a little worried.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ57blrpxVjF
The day after, we all 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMLbDnLZI6
decided to meet as BigBang and The Toxins, just to hang out. And 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKcb4ceCSB8
surprisingly, Sam wasn't up for it. So she stayed back at the hotel. 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtTG40g5N7q
Which for me, was so unlike her.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAyVN3lOAXK
"Why do you think she's doing this?" G-Dragon asked.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3YWyLumBDn
"It's because she doesn't want to get hurt," I replied.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGQWyUQ2qPj
"What do you mean?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCfmEDEWGb
I rolled my eyes. One 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDmukfTxWVT
thing I didn't like, was explaining things to people. But this was 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQrUaU4f638
G-Dragon I was talking to, so, I ignored that for a minute.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWIWi3uGBF
"Sam likes you, a lot," I908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GTqJUfbQC
said. "And she's one person who doesn't like to get too attached 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ7BG7SJl6I
because she knows that if she does, she's likely to get hurt. And she 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAVfJ7ndPc
doesn't want that."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsBbw2SSxWB
G-Dragon shrugged his shoulders, waiting for me to continue. "So?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSIiMPMu5Ut
"We'll be leaving soon. 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdVZEZk4cI
Well, soon after the music video is released. And trust me, she feels 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyyLFHJwcwV
awful that we have to go. That's why she's practically ignoring everyone908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28XDo4nHdq
around her and being so distant."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCDUO7NF3n0
"For a moment, I thought I might have done something wrong."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqu886p62oS
"You haven't done 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzHKN7unrrn
anything. That's just how Sam is. She thinks ignoring you till she 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsq7rN7d6ZX
leaves looks like the best solution not to get hurt. But it isn't 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡECrcx36mlp
working." I said that with a smirk.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9bjEqR8gMN
"Why do you say that?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtt2vSpx9rm
"I don't really know for908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFbJKiU76gU
sure. She's been acting real funny lately. But I can tell she misses 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dyj6kMEEC
BigBang, especially you. She just doesn't want to admit it."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHi7RJDpdMp
"Ya. The others are really worried about her too."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡABFihpnOLe
"Why don't you just talk908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74pQv3Ayy7
to her personally? In that way, you'll be able to open her up. Because 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQ6pU9jkF3
right now, she is so closed up like a bud that she isn't even talking to908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFF3iOr4T3O
some of us either."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeAlqgBGvdp
"Wait, she isn't talking to you?" G-Dragon asked with an eyebrow raised.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrucWUdtLw
"Not really. She just 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvx9LYenVXX
isn't herself is all I can say. But I bet you talking to her face to 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQYL04yUsh
face will break that little state she's in."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcakX0WnqY0
"I have so much to tell her, I'm afraid I might upset her."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtWbRNYh1H
"Don't tell me you're going to ask her to be your girlfriend?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwqyrf7FAp5
G-Dragon looked at me and I could tell he was blushing, even when he was trying to hide it by putting up a stoic face.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡziQYnVR0jR
"How do you know that?" he asked.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRfu3uOZkil
"Is that not obvious? I know that if you ask her to be your girlfriend, she will say no because of us leaving Korea."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlujwlgLcL
"True. And she was really strong on the fact that we couldn't be together."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRuBNLSeEBP
"Ya, well, she said that to Daesung, and he understood and respected her wishes. I believe you also have to do the same."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZ4wRmFoTC
"I don't think I want to."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVYwWfORBeL
"Trust me, GD. If you 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmuWy68og4
really want to be on Sam's good side, you'll do it. Besides, isn't it 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJ2kSOddlg
that if you love someone, you will let them go?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljzmBPCfY0
G-Dragon thought for a moment. "I guess you're right, but, I don't think I want to let her go."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9DVsABk4eL
"Well, I think you 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNAHXGOiGzD
should. Don't take this the wrong way," I said quickly when G-Dragon 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzFOjJhpd2f
gave me a certain look. "But, if you two were really meant to be 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQbASIrL4bV
together, then destiny in one way or another will play it's part."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXt1lXkt0T8
"You think so?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlFcc7OSyl2
I smiled and nodded. "I 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGlrnR7Dih
know so. I feel she and you are perfect for each other." I tapped my 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9FGlQV5uDs
chin as I looked up at the ceiling. "But then again, there's Daesung, so908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7q4JVB53E
I can't really tell."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhOAQST7hbY
"Are you serious?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ10dYlogOpD
"I'm joking," I laughed. "Well, I think it's obvious that she likes you."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQohv4eoN8B
"But she kissed Daesung last time."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0CgXiiH4cj
"Are you really bringing that up now?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLNmLlxf5Z
"Just because I like her so much doesn't mean that I can easily forget that. I don't really care anyway."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2iPiWjjFS
I smiled when I realised908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPpXtuLEZF
why he said that. He hadn't kissed Sam yet. I didn't want to taunt him 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFT8pZPpeR
so I kept quiet. He was already suffering and I didn't want to make 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxgsbsN4Lg2
things worse. But still, I smiled in my heart, finding it so cute that 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3IEGDJqHA
he was dying just to kiss Sam. I was also dying inside, feeling the urge908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TiD3BtdEn
to taunt him so bad.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe7XDAAqAM8
"Well, I still think you should talk to her," I said. "Because I'm tired of the way Sam's been acting."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrjiIWmpgWb
"But I'm afraid she might not want to talk to me," said G-Dragon. "Should I go to see her instead?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmkVFVDGC8
"That will be so much better. Because calling her just to meet won't work."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9567AOyXs
"Okay, let's go to the hotel right now."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuwdnmm5ajx
"You want to go now?" I asked, looking a little surprised.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQEkdelwCmk
"Well, yes. What's wrong?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7No6phxd2
"Oh, ummm...." I looked away so that I wouldn't have to look at G-Dragon in the face. "She went to meet up with Derrick today."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyteWQDO2Fr
"What? Why? She went to meet him and not me?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5g9QqQU1Gq
"Stop acting jealous." I908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdrQRKD5qZ
turned to look at him, then looked away again. "That's why I didn't 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0wYWbONLg
want to tell you. She had to meet him since he is leaving for Paris 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW4HdWpL56f
today. Jehan was deported back to France to face trail and he had to 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpN3IPnlHcd
leave too. So she had to go and say goodbye."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdfy7qrvdiW
"Does she like him?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGolaSunb4p
I smiled and when I 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWx6qxFDF8q
turned to look at him, it disappeared. "She only likes him as a friend, 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡojlcjg7qep
don't worry about it. He's really good looking though."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzAEuNTmWvL
"I'm glad he's leaving."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGyfk3U3uKr
"Why? You're scared that he and Sam might hook up and date? I doubt it. Not when Sam already likes you. So, I'm not worried."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvoNj6i6N4d
"I've to see her though. I've to give her something."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43p33m4FWf
"What is it?" Now I was curious.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVON0jggkp
"It's a present. I planned to give it to her two days ago, but I couldn't."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DRvqhg4LB
My phone soon started to ring in my purse and when I took it out, it was Sam.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbnufmZOHF
"Sam's calling," I said as I looked at G-Dragon and quickly answered the call.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx3zVdabRCn
"Hey, Sam," I said as I put the phone to my ear.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvd4XveoQpI
"Hey, I'm heading back to the hotel," said Sam. "Are you still around?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjvKRvt4Og
"Ummm, no I'm not. Are you on your way back now?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0bmXJLV2ui
"Yes. I went to see Derrick off with Christine at the airport and we are on our way back right now."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvqAyksfWOr
"Alright, then, you'll find me at the hotel."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMYoRPjFqLg
I quickly cut the call and stood up from the couch. G-Dragon was startled by my sudden quick action.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ltsZrXgtC
"GD, let's go," I said as I looked at him.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8afBs9UwgA
"Where?" he asked.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjqJcip3qfE
"To the hotel. We're 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy45rNZ93Ke
going to get there before Sam does. So quickly go and get her present. 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2sWWNDlDFO
And whatever it is, I don't want to miss a thing when you give it to 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaOOSnM8uBr
her."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6H9NPbXSu
***908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFTMtHc1ed
Sam's P.O.V:908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnu6dUN2M81
"Do you think the colour908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjfpqxaE9tq
green is going to match with these shoes?" Christine asked me as I sat 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFVbXmWUouU
next to her, showing me a pair of shoes on her phone.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoAtqVWh3UM
"Mmm, they will," I said908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxrtAFBtSeL
as I took a brief look at the shoes and turned the other way, looking 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvbByGQs0TE
out through the car window. "Just make sure it's army green."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2PiStj1A8
"Okay," said Christine as she kept on looking at other different shoes to buy online. "I bet Zoey would love these shoes."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4v04tFXeG9
"I know she will."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxOr602bO2
"Are you okay, Sam?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡprHQKNPOqR
"Ya, I am," I replied as I turned to look at her. "Just a little sad."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoIPIibrzAB
"You've been like that for a while now. Anything on your mind?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIP2id4kwJS
I thought before I answered, "there is a lot going through my mind. Things that I know I can't change, even if I wanted to."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIq8OiC5z34
"Is it about GD?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXQyvIVGkp
"That and a whole lot more," I said as I gave Christine a small smile. "I'm really going to miss this place when we leave."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKWDFS0HujB
"Is that why you're acting so distant with all of us?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXm5e3To54
I raised an eyebrow and gave Christine a serious look. "I have?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TlTZp56tG
"Pretty much, yes. Yesterday you didn't even want to hang out with us. And you've been ignoring GD's calls and everybody else."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGrxHIk39mX
She was right though. As908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzlccoYalu3
much as I didn't want to admit it, all I was doing right now was to 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6RiQ59OhA
completely detach myself from BigBang and this place. I felt if I did, I908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8AfM6pQrU
wouldn't get too attached and when its time to leave, I wouldn't feel 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqK2ESyt98
so bad.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ZtPyEtT3m
I was always like this. 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgqmhfvVtJx
Not trying to get too attached because it hurts when you finally have to908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFduZy4mlsf
leave behind the people you care about the most. And I really grew 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXCpXr9huNg
attached to BigBang despite us being so different from one another.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48LYV9fjQ0
And now that I know we 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwiMQJ9d7cM
might be leaving soon, was killing me. I never knew I would get too 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nWsHzvF9X
attached to this place. But with BigBang and the loving fans, they made 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUB8FmvB6Q
my stay here feel like home. And I bet the other Toxins felt that way 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfI1Rg6tnd
too.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzuKqHYCwAG
"You're right, Christine," I said. "But I can't say that I'm ignoring people. Not in a bad way or anything."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSztPDFdmpc
"You just want to detach yourself because you don't want to get hurt. We know you all too well, Sam."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGeBY2hz9N
I almost burst out laughing. "Ya, you do. I realise that the more I try to ignore them, the worse it is for me."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTS7Lt3BQLB
I looked at Christine who had been looking at me the whole time. "Well, it's about time you admitted it."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvsl6oXp7gL
I leaned back on my seat and looked out of the window staring at the streets of Seoul. I smiled to myself.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGkc9dmSKcs
"Maybe I should drop 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwtituS6Ld
this little act of mine and go with the flow. I mean, I'm leaving, but I908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlvEpFX7Ush
would rather enjoy my last days here and create more memories, you 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkWpSYqjiKw
know?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoPQ6TKl9ch
"You've no idea how much908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvB6ouUMvrA
I wanted to hear you say that," said Christine as she held my shoulder.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW38A6TJPPw
"Everyone has been so worried about you, they thought you would be 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacxzTXdp2k
ignoring us forever."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4XquBe8lYs
"Ha. Even I can't do 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5E8R48uzPE
that for that long. Trust me, these last few days I have been dying 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc1Hj0Rv6R7
inside. And I realise how much I miss BigBang."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6I23jKrKhT
"And what about G-Dragon? Don't you miss him?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMXH0IuJjta
I blushed when Christine asked me that. And I felt a wave of guilt flood over me.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3X17jCNnoH
"I miss him, a lot," I 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWuCewD9pqS
found myself saying, as I thought of G-Dragon. "And I've been dodging 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDcHusNugz1
his calls, lately. Only picking up when he calls too much."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG3vEvZVvAN
"You're so mean, Sam," 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLnWFVZ1nWh
said Christine, looking upset as she folded her arms. "You know he loves908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiMkHmC3qgk
you and you're treating him like he's done something wrong."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKGv6m72Co
I blushed when Christine908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdvaAU1Tcd
said the "L" word. I swore that I even saw the driver of the car look 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbxb1ZKbjf
through the rear view mirror and smile at me.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2QaVjwyP2c
"Ya, I'm horrible!" I covered my face with my hands. "And he's probably been sick and worried about me."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhX8zZ7r8Jd
"Well, obviously. You've to make up for it."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmphWMFCMhq
"I've to make up to a lot of people."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7pWM9zvsX
"True."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPgU65KhM4
"Well, when we get to the hotel, I'll try and see what I can do about it."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyuU9Ten4FU
"Good," said Christine. "I'm glad to see that you're back to your old self."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcr8lCa19vW
"Mmm, I just hope that the guys don't get mad at me after how I have been treating them lately."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGYgIYkQxw
"BigBang? No way. And if908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfiP7pKiAV
it comes to GD, he will treat this like it was nothing but a phase. I 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSPefr3LHoX
wouldn't be too worried if I were you."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuaxrE9V9wY
I smiled and didn't say a908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDgSPZgD2F
word. I knew he would never be mad at me no matter what I do. He's 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXa1vdKynQD
proved that to me so many times before, especially when we never settled908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1x7d27opx
our differences during the first few weeks.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4PVCJvOPeT
We arrived at the hotel and Christine and I got out of the car.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCMEc0RcjMV
"So, are you going to call GD and talk?" Christine asked as we walked into the lobby together.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy4krsiApDJ
"I have to, don't I? 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8PElWozm86
Besides, Zoey isn't around, the boys left with Seungri and Daesung to 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7LyxMUc60A
attend a video game convention. And Lee and Collins are busy as usual. 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRd9Xvk9Uh8
So this might be the perfect time to call him and talk."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG8o7uYp6RD
"Will you tell him to come here?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV3ZVp7bqJT
"Ya. I know I should be making the effort to see him, but I would rather he comes here. In fact, let me call him right now."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiW4JDFb9EH
As we headed towards the908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMjSSJbWzw
elevator, I took my phone out of my purse and when Christine and I got 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtCpiZhSrPO
in the elevator, I had already dialled his number and had my phone to my908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydzdKAZCnX
ear.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHq9U1p02Tt
His phone was ringing when I pressed the button to our floor and the elevator doors quickly closed in front of us.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkuDtDrgjso
When he finally picked up, he sounded surprised.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh7XXITFLW8
"Sam?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLUuUprDzc
My mouth stayed opened. I908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLoOyq1fpaJ
didn't know what to say next. How could I tell him I needed him here at908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4nDyEZnZuD
the hotel right now? After all that's happened these past two days, I 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zBz022hsp
felt a little guilty calling him.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTK2mj4B2nw
"Sam, are you there?" G-Dragon asked.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn38l9TAlyY
"Hi, Ji Yong," I said, clearing my throat. "Ummm, are you busy today?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsS3ei7YDp
I looked at Christine who was looking at me.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRqitj5ic1m
"No, I'm quite free today," G-Dragon replied. "What is it? Do you want us to meet?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQiVf9x2xB
For a moment, I was ready to say, "no, I was just asking." But I went on to say, "yes."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVeWtKMSpx2
There was silence at the end of the line and I grew worried. What if he said he didn't want to see me?908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4nqZZjG5S
The doors to the 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp0kjMEqkoA
elevator stood open and standing right there in the hall was G-Dragon 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMI6FqIO5jC
with his phone to his ear. My heart raced when I saw him and I felt some908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkNHCGTCo97
sense of relief. Christine who stood beside me gasped when she saw him 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Lsyee8M1t
waiting for us in the hall. I quickly cut the call and put my phone 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsu1IEvqjrs
away.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRz70F8nQpI
"You're here?" Christine asked him instead of me.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs5NckyKCgx
"I had to come," said G-Dragon, his eyes had never left mine as he put his phone away. "She and I need to talk."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLb2KnnUPL2
Christine stepped out of the elevator and I quickly followed before the doors could close.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqUIrVnMoKk
Zoey appeared from the 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCmjNBe71C7
lounge and I knew right there that G-Dragon was here because she told 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7OFhDBjMm
him to come. She gave me a smile when I looked at her, and that 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbuCcDDZFcw
confirmed everything.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZs4mPUYC4P
"Hey," said Zoey, giving908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDvfKuwqOUN
me a small wave. "You two need to talk so I figured that G-Dragon 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡad64lg1s1a
should come here. Hope you aren't mad."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqzQhH4xwVk
"No," I quickly shook my908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPB8MCdPpG
head nervously. "No, no. It's fine. I was also planning on meeting up 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvMB0vem4tx
with him, so, its fine." I scratched the back of my head.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡybwZdAhVZC
"Ummm," Christine went 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhfVMpYuqY
to looking at me and then at G-Dragon, looking confused yet amused by 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXkBbr4D0Jf
all this and wondering what to do next. "I will....I mean, we, Zoey and 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW5xKbn56Jc
I, will be in the room if you need us."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGDYlZ8xjYg
Christine and Zoey soon 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkl0avYKGS
headed for the rooms. I quickly went to the lounge, without taking a 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6oJRtQkMty
look at G-Dragon. I could hear G-Dragon coming right behind me and when I908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKn4ZvpkEY
stopped to stand in the middle of the room, I took a deep breath, 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsWHXrIfzR
trying to calm myself down.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2sSMOFCLk
"I'm glad, you wanted to talk," said G-Dragon. "Because there is so much I need to....."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQ2yH8yC2w
I quickly cut him short 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83olta1yM8
when I turned around and the next thing I knew, I had my arms wrapped 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7w1KZgf7PT
around him in a hug. I can't really tell how all of that happened. It 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfs8rrxWCFz
felt like an immediate impulse.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhFOuNAQ7iT
"I missed you too," said G-Dragon as he also wrapped his arms around me.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDkJIqOQFS
It felt like we had 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrwoOEfX5uQ
stayed like that in each other's arm for a while. I wanted to say like 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9f65U1hoE
this forever, but I knew all that was too good to be true. But I knew I 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD50AXQXjDA
was never going to regret doing it now because I never know when we will908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO0wDQIexVH
ever do so again.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqgPJVCP5wv
"I'm sorry," I said as I pulled away from him and looked at him.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGTmmp1gNB8
"You have a lot of 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvtu3iqfNOc
explaining to do, my little kitty," said G-Dragon as he held my chin. He908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVaimKLsrQ4
was smiling at me and my heart was beating so fast and I was blushing 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsx4DBiHGJ2
like crazy.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJggdAI6PdX
"I know, I'm sorry. It's just that, I've been such a jerk ignoring you like that. It's that I didn't want to get...."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfo6rDlR1BP
"...hurt." G-Dragon finished the sentence before I could. "Zoey told me."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOE2a1W2jMK
"I'm surprised that she brought you here." I had my eyebrow raised.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJUo5pPjZxc
"Well, she noticed that you were a bit off these past two days. I was a little surprised myself when she came to see me."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8YiSEBtZxI
I smiled. "I'm glad you came. And I'm really sorry for my awful behaviour. I should apologise to the others too."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnhsxcnAmGM
"I'm not mad at you and you don't need to apologise for anything, Sam. I completely understand you."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BjZ2cwLnL
I looked down at my feet908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWUOSvU49W
and moved them here and there. I was feeling embarrassed. "You were 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn37tH4ghMt
never mad at me, weren't you?" I asked.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡstcLSkHWdF
"No. For some reason I can never stay mad at you for anything."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBvgO5VoU8m
"I'm guessing we have a lot to talk about. Why don't we sit down?" I was still looking down at the floor.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYOAzc8N0XJ
"Sure."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKO0KuDmPF
We went to sit on the 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hB0XmGNDx
couch, facing each other. I tucked a strand of my hair behind my ear, 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5c4sPWcXuG
wondering where to start. We sat in silence, not saying a word for a 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2r4Y6NEPZ
while.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS30ENALzoR
"Aren't you going to say anything?" G-Dragon asked.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPA3HR2X4I
"What's left to say?" I asked as I looked at him and shrugged my shoulders. "I can keep apologising if you want me to."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiuVgrCK6xS
"I want to know what's on your mind."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhiWLaFQQfa
"I thought Zoey already told you."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDlJbJ4u66v
"I want to hear your version."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLarDlkqNR
I raised an eyebrow. 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoqgu2Bq0D4
There were some things I didn't like to explain to people, but G-Dragon 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsiS8I3NYxf
deserved to know what was in my mind at the moment and how I felt.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOSRFhTmLij
"I'm scared." I looked 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQiXcHShjnp
down at my fingers on my lap. "I'm scared of losing and leaving all this908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQhCHpowfr
behind. Since I came here, I only thought, I would come here, do the 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYG5ViLgfee
collaboration with you guys and leave. But a lot more happened. Quite 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnN2497qIVX
out of the ordinary, actually. First off, you and I had some unsettling 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TDvga1UCm
differences."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp0p9VuJtHA
G-Dragon chuckled. "Don't remind me," he said.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBCl07JLEt
"Then came Zoey and her issue with Jehan. Which, thank God, was all sorted out."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgoqPOvTK0d
"And it was all thanks to you," said G-Dragon as I looked up at him and he smiled.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3IHWjbKY9G
"And after all that, 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwAfdIiB19T
we'll be leaving soon after the music video is released. I know it will 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVppevU7O5v
take a while, but each day that passes by, I feel we might just leave 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8ZSFQfwV8
tomorrow. That's why I've been avoiding you guys so much. Because, I'm 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCkF9q6mUBb
trying to detach myself from all that's happened and the people around 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQB7zJ4Qzh5
me. But that's only making me feel even more miserable."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgH4YFquHAX
"I understand you, Sam. 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqt9HGW8xZ
Leaving people you care about behind hurts. But with all the memories we908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX54bpfj2p1
have of each other, I don't think you'll ever feel we're apart."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOjvdrW1GvT
"You're right. I figured that on my way back. And I think it's time I just enjoy my last days here."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXCCuBZOUa7
"I'm glad," said G-Dragon as he came a little closer. "There is also something you and I should talk about."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEoexSxuVrU
I gave him a questioning look. "What else is there to talk about apart from my unusual behaviour?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVKgwb1Y2kY
"You and me."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqN99mZUw2c
My eyes grew wide and my sudden surprise soon turned to sudden frustration.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1BAdPs4DL
"Please, not that!" I shook my head, feeling uncomfortable. "I don't want to talk about it."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2VFKgiWLI
For whatever reason, G-Dragon didn't take my reaction seriously and just laughed. I turned to look at him and I was startled.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8iw7rWP6Ft
"Now I see why you've been specifically avoiding me," said G-Dragon. "It's because of us, isn't it?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTiK7t87ivk
I sighed as I gave in. 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuAXjorlhT2
"True. It hurts to know that you and I can never be....you know." I 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCBCeztltt
hesitated to say the word. But I carried on anyway. "I'm still going to 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTzVVtAHMu
stand my ground on this one. And I'm just hoping you won't be stubborn 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVbX3xvbWcI
enough to disagree with me like you have always done."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPLDBcnycFx
"I completely agree with you, Sam."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhLevxE1R9n
"Huh?" I was confused. "Did you just say you agree with me?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSskUUiclwO
"You heard right. I know I've disagreed with you on that part, but I'm finally going to give in and let all of this slide."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDn12u9OJUb
Out of nowhere, a smile 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZX5Zolurj
appeared on my face and my heart felt overjoyed. But there was still 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlHlSMDEXhc
that sinking feeling in me. And I knew it was because of the fact that 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQudmdBxRZ
he and I had finally agreed to be friends and nothing else.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqu0FtqYw01
But maybe it was best for things to be this way. We were never meant to be from a long shot.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrptaiAyT3f
"Hearing you say that feels like a surprise," I said.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWl1P8udBX
"I also can't believe 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7cCMZmsGp
that I'm saying this either. But, if fate wants us to be together, then 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvktSgMwyT0
it will play its part, wouldn't it?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdK9MJ3flT
I slowly nodded my head. "You're right. Zoey convinced you to all this, didn't she?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOk0YUdlmuS
G-Dragon raised an eyebrow. "How do you know that?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgYDPIVTOkF
I smirked. "I could tell when my best friend is trying to help out. That's another reason she came to see you, I bet."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbeZdV7DEQ
"Looks you're really good at figuring things out. And I never knew Zoey could give such great advice."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3fr81M7ZE
"She's a ninety percent of crazy and a ten percent of sensible. That shows she rarely gives good advice to anyone."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn2YwYKDEtG
"Hey! I heard that!" came Zoey's voice coming from the room.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeW9cOLfrJ7
I looked up at the ceiling and gave a little laugh. "Making fun of Zoey never gets old."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VqaHSx1HW
"Ya, but she isn't that bad either," said G-Dragon.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIIZG86L27e
"Awww! Thanks, Ji Yong!" came Zoey again.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPCv7BBkIo
"Can you please you step away from that door? We're having a conversation here," I called out to her.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuYG23s4lda
"Fine! That's why you're no fun!"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc62mQMIKVZ
"Yet, I wonder she stuck with me in the first place," I muttered, playfully rolling my eyes.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8uQ4eaIgPk
"Oh, Sam," said G-Dragon. "Do you remember I had something for you? I was planning to give it to you two days ago."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7bE08xYbaq
"Oh, ya, I remember. Do you have it here with you?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnxHSfvIi9
G-Dragon had his hand 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ03hE9dm8ms
behind him and he soon brought out a black fancy looking jewellery box. I908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNH2ui5AKiW
could tell there was a necklace in there. But what kind sent me 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKByigXAOYK
thinking.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDnrndHumN
"You got me a necklace?" I asked as I looked up at him.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYzkQMSFfRZ
"Yes. I bought it the 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsccevNO8uZ
time I went to Paris with Zoey and the others. Zoey was planning to give908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxYbAfcyRw
it you, but I took it from her and wanted to give it to you later on."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2apLZzHaKP
"Ha! I knew you got that necklace, GD! How could you!" came Zoey's voice for the room.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xPbtpixx7
"Quiet down!" came Christine's voice. "You're ruining everything!"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBm8koB72n
"Sorry! Carry on! Pretend I never said all that!"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX40F3PGOKt
"Anyway," said G-Dragon, trying to put all that Zoey had said behind him, "it's yours."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfAZIWaODl
I took the box from him 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZlq9xZRDby
and when I opened it, what I found inside wasn't what a could call a 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvzxHOyGzy
necklace. It was a pendant. A silver pendant with a music note studded 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEEYY7Aur1A
with real tiny diamonds.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlngk6ZrG1a
I was stunned at first as I looked at the beauty of the pendant. I took the small music note in my fingers and looked at it.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWctGb4InvS
"Wow, it's so pretty," I908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCwIrooJDD
said, looking at it with so much awe and wonder. "I've always wanted to908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3FP3ZvzCLw
get this kind of a pendant. It's just never crossed my mind to buy one 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVEIubNb3U
on my own. I'm always so forgetful of the little things I truly want."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDF2f73iLbk
"Just so you know, Sam, I picked that for you!" came Zoey.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmiv7I9ggV
"Be honest, Zoey!" G-Dragon called out to her.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ03L0teLThf
Zoey sighed loudly. "Fine. Lover boy picked it for you and I agreed because you've always wanted one of those."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAKIi2FLPO1
"Well, I've to say, you really guessed right on one of the things I really wanted," I said as I looked at G-Dragon.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgcHcAp8zdA
"I had a strong feeling you would like it," said G-Dragon. "I'm glad I was right."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh42kKR2BMU
"Will you help me put it on?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNTLb5XlYqa
Christine and Zoey squealed and giggled with glee. I for one, was very annoyed.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9isWbOOIhz
"Don't mind them," said G-Dragon as he smiled. "Let me."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHflkbWw3Lw
He took the pendant and I908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjsnAxRqfdF
turned to face the other way, my back facing him. I lifted my hair off 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuPYknRTsmU
my back and the pendant soon came around and landed on my chest. 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPn7Wf7CzYU
G-Dragon fixed the silver string behind my neck and when he was done, I 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtvYR49305
put my hair back down.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNb7kH98ZBo
"Thank you so much," I said as I faced him again. "It's really lovely."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRA1DdY5feB
"I know, it's gorgeous,"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLQzPpuMAc
he said as he took the music note hanging on the silver neckline and 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7AIDA1IXj
looked at it. "Music has always been your driving passion, Sam. That's 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE3Tkuu9O6z
why I got it for you. And with this, I hope you will always remember me 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCPgBic8Zu
like a musical melody that you can never get tired of listening to and 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhv0ujKWt7R
you will listen to it forever. Like a symphony."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0N00JqXtxL
"You will always be my symphony, GD," I said as I held his cheek and then, the unthinkable happened.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5HDtOBHkE
I brought my lips close 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyjGvPkrnUs
to his and I kissed him. He immediately responded and opened his mouth 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUJT0pEiTp
to take me in. I had to admit, the kiss sent me to a whole new world and908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjm7qcxC25r
there was this driving passion that I never wanted to ever be 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXihWDiubHt
extinguished. My heart beat so fast and my insides tingled by the sudden908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29Jyj4mcTi
rush of ecstacy. G-Dragon had pulled me closer to him and I wrapped my 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLr0obPhyYG
arms around his neck not willingly to let go.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI11eKRNMIF
We broke away from each other and I felt starry-eyed by all of this. And I blushed like hell. Did I really do that?908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE9uIIowezb
"Wow," said G-Dragon as 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZJWBGCajP
he looked at me in the eyes and even he himself couldn't believe what 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8p6lrfXd2v
had happened. "Did you really just kiss me?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvabCNBZUDr
"I don't know." I was confused and I soon felt so embarrassed. "Did I?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTgXbg8BCAp
"You did. And I loved it."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpY3ZUNPczP
"Don't say that," I said908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJeCDcK7nod
as I moved away from him and pulled my hair back from my face. My face 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNXKar3MeG
was as hot as ever and I felt like splashing water all over myself.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjy785wJVq
"I'm being really honest908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikYwvc1EHL
right now. That was so magical, Sam." He moved closer and whispered in 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ87BK9JJrYY
my ear. "And I would do it all over again."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2ZRS8QJjL
His voice gave me 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSzh4JBVqo
butterflies in my tummy and I felt that tingling feeling rush through me908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSFO5TKfn7Y
all over again. I looked at him and by surprise, he wrapped his arms 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoqWFVAmMtm
around me and kissed me. And now, I realised I wanted this more than 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFuGYpErov2
ever. Him being so close to me. I never wanted to let all of this go.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡypCldQTsGn
After we broke away from908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG3cUnyI1kR
each other, I didn't feel that much embarrassed as I did before. If 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSITAXuqYyC
anything, I was still blushing but this time, I felt a certain glow from908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDzwvD5Vbga
my cheeks.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBrndwpz3Wd
"I never knew you're such a good kisser," said G-Dragon as he bit his lower lip.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnaO6amIPrx
I was staring at his 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Ybh4IEsp4
lips and I wanted him to kiss me again so bad. But this time, I smiled. I908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcHZx47Hidl
knew he was enticing me to kiss him again, not this time.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTHSuHspR8e
"Don't push it," I said as I finally stood up from the couch. "This is going to be the last we will ever do this."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeX3yZdFU2A
G-Dragon also got up and908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq09Bxlrgei
from behind, he wrapped his arms around me. Gosh! He was killing me 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfVOvY42Cfz
inside and he knew it. I couldn't stand it when he was so close to me.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsx69mZzrhB
"Do we really have to?" 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5PJG7d79Jh
he asked as he whispered in my ear. Again, that tingling feeling. It was908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdcXp1RZa1k
driving me insane. "Because I loved it so much."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhpSnEv2Q4U
"We agreed to be friends and I'm planning to keep it that way."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkcy5Yeh1av
"Okay, fine," he said as he dropped his arms around me and I turned to face him. "The queen has spoken."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9ZA6OaYRs
"Don't mock me," I warned with a smile.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxS5RKusWy
"You know it's going to be hard to forget what just happened."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3N6kDcJxw
"I know. But in one way or another we have to."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0SAcfVEgBK
"I'll always love you, Sam."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRf1t5wRXke
The whole world seems to908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJAZs8RmM0B
pause when he said those words. I tried to speak but I couldn't make 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtPYjxSngJY
the effort of opening my mouth. Why did he say that? Right now, I was 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqns8GkYIkL
stunned.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4SZKdwcuGy
If his plan was to make 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF8U3FYf98M
me look like a lifeless statue, it pretty much worked. All he did was 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqXv589Uquz
give me that devious smile of his and I just stood there until Christine908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvwcaiyHig
and Zoey finally showed up.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUKIyyu7aKp
"Hey, you two are too quiet," said Zoey, then she looked worried when she stared at me. "Oh, no."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH3mclx4K2S
"Dang, GD. Don't tell me you used the 'L' word on her," said Christine. She winced.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsy3Uae0dip
"I did," he said confidently.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2jFV78rbR
"Sam, Sam, if you hear me, just breathe," said Zoey.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡft7K2wh0SG
"I can hear you loud and clear," I said. "I don't go deaf when I'm stunned, you know?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZJITWFvLv
"A lot of things happen when you get stunned. In high school, there was a time you cried out of the blue."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDtIHuf3ld
"Don't remind me," I 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtiRaSvbwia
said as I rubbed my head. I suddenly had a huge headache. "That was a 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3H1GB1e8p
long time ago and I was pretty emotional that day."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnn0grRRzPr
"If I knew you'll get like this, I wasn't going to say that," said G-Dragon.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXAuTUdPeJM
"I should have given you a heads up," said Zoey.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDEyDf2zG5
"No, it's fine. I'm also sorry. I should have said something in return," I said.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAZ1GkWYmHr
"No need," he said. "I know you also feel the same way. It's just hard for you to realise it."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlt4QFKhzBg
Before I could say 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg012NLO9M9
anything, Christine immediately interrupted by saying, "with all of that908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZ3agM6Thi
lovey dovey nonsense aside, Mike called and asked if we could all join 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3itLxudFF
him and the others for lunch. Are you two up for it?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡclB0I7nFCV
"Ya, sure," said G-Dragon. "Are you okay with it, Sam?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8qrTWHm8LI
"Yes, I am," I said. Finally, something to keep me distracted.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmR7sUEZQdZ
"Let's go then," said Zoey. "I'm starving."908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJuS0ZEkzc
"Tell me about it," I said as I went over to the couch to get my purse.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHD0VSyhA7t
"That's such a pretty pendant," said Christine as she looked at my pendant as the four of us made our way to the elevator.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRox7yhAims
"Thanks," I said.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4v68PT3h4D
"May I ask something?" Zoey asked me as she pressed the button for the elevator lift and the doors flew wide open.908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6OnNxAKEM
"What is it?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4sTOfH6njv
We all went in the elevator and Zoey asked, "for G-Dragon to finally say the 'L' word, you two kissed, right?"908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xczC9BG9d
I never said a word as I908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF6Nkwg1m9n
stood still and the doors to the elevator started to close before us. 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhrB9mijrju
G-Dragon smiled, Christine silently giggled and I was praying for this 908Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8hfXtwiPLN
day to end.
