Lee's P.O.V643Please respect copyright.PENANAmK0XsxROHx
I was so tired as I sat 643Please respect copyright.PENANAJi1dicG4ST
on the chair which I had been sitting on for so long that my butt hurt 643Please respect copyright.PENANA9sDHX5NUTg
so bad and all I wanted to do was stand. I was just piling up the last 643Please respect copyright.PENANAnVaGvZ6yKl
documents Collins and I had been passing through earlier on in the 643Please respect copyright.PENANA8X4sHM446O
morning in a file and I had never felt so relieved that I was done. I 643Please respect copyright.PENANA1zQEotiqOJ
leaned back further on my chair and blew out a sigh. A sigh of relief.643Please respect copyright.PENANAmrDiyf1eia
The past two days have 643Please respect copyright.PENANANpAJgIqg7K
been pretty packed and I've been up and down all the time without a 643Please respect copyright.PENANAlK726wHkbD
chance to relax. The only time I ever did was when it was time for bed. 643Please respect copyright.PENANAlGSpql47Es
But even then, I still had to wake up early and get to work. Well, being643Please respect copyright.PENANAsb5ygmarRm
Collins' assistant is what I signed up for. So I had no reason to 643Please respect copyright.PENANAUcRLfv2uIZ
complain.643Please respect copyright.PENANAq0E07cWHrk
Why should I complain? 643Please respect copyright.PENANAsHOyMTaOm3
So far, being an assistant manager isn't as bad as I thought it was when643Please respect copyright.PENANAKfGbahH5gg
I signed up for the job two years ago. That was almost the same time 643Please respect copyright.PENANA1mVyxUYFij
The Toxins were discovered and signed their record deal.643Please respect copyright.PENANAvzF15s3Xup
I really love my job. 643Please respect copyright.PENANAx4bwWrqxhR
It's pretty involving and requires me to be here and there all the time.643Please respect copyright.PENANAHWwh0u0aVD
When I not only got to work with Collins, but also with The Toxins, my 643Please respect copyright.PENANA2z66VALCNq
job became a concrete part of my life that I never wanted to let go of.643Please respect copyright.PENANA90ACMtFQjn
Collins is strict and 643Please respect copyright.PENANAOAj3HU8Krz
wants everything to go according to plan, but he isn't half as bad. I 643Please respect copyright.PENANApY2Ilze8QJ
got to see that when he first discovered The Toxins and those five 643Please respect copyright.PENANAQBS09KO0yr
monkeys managed to break him down, bringing up a softer side of him only643Please respect copyright.PENANA1dLNpk9urr
a few people ever get to see. I know as manager, you always have to set643Please respect copyright.PENANAD8jOGbSLHm
your limits and put up a straight face, but I can tell you, that 643Please respect copyright.PENANAKP5j52NfzC
Collins is one heck of a friendly person and we became very good friends643Please respect copyright.PENANAnO4tm3qdlz
over the years.643Please respect copyright.PENANADgx0Rj1EXk
And another reason I 643Please respect copyright.PENANAQvF3vEmpt7
love my job is because of The Toxins. Those five came like an unexpected643Please respect copyright.PENANArbfYxANNxX
wrapped up bundle of joy in my life. With them, there is never a dull 643Please respect copyright.PENANAW0bFk54StW
moment and they always make my work easier. Well, let me rephrase that: 643Please respect copyright.PENANAJ8iKoZnEzv
most of the times harder. But that only makes everything about them so 643Please respect copyright.PENANAtYwkSPPNKv
memorable. I remember the first few months after they signed their 643Please respect copyright.PENANAYsLgTXVYvx
record deal and they were all put under pressure to do their best. That 643Please respect copyright.PENANA76Ci7dxZhT
period was nerve wrecking for them and even for me. But the one thing I 643Please respect copyright.PENANAn8qpnWr3fG
loved about them was that they never gave up on who they were and that's643Please respect copyright.PENANAnojgqsPIhw
how they have managed to make it this far.643Please respect copyright.PENANAEJZetnfPBJ
As I remained seated and643Please respect copyright.PENANAA7UdIcaHoR
thought of all those times with The Toxins, I finally realised how much643Please respect copyright.PENANAmX4uZBo9ec
I missed them. I haven't been around them a lot these past days and I 643Please respect copyright.PENANAAHwH6O9YpV
really wanted to know what's up. I felt a little left out and I didn't 643Please respect copyright.PENANAzGzOfdTcRj
like that at all.643Please respect copyright.PENANAIWSKMLaQsQ
Not that I'm acting like643Please respect copyright.PENANAnA9aszLnMl
a mama bear or anything, I've always cared for The Toxins. We are all 643Please respect copyright.PENANAR6G7vGTAYS
like one big family. And as a friend, they also tend to confide in me 643Please respect copyright.PENANAxFjs52XLlV
for anything. Mostly Sam because she's a leader and always has to look 643Please respect copyright.PENANArNqPkUcwO1
out for her team. Whenever she needs advice or help, I'm always there to643Please respect copyright.PENANAQq8htMRK9S
help in any way I can.643Please respect copyright.PENANA5elB8XyOsM
I looked at the time on 643Please respect copyright.PENANALf1VqG05hq
my wrist watch and I realised it was fifteen minutes past twelve. I was 643Please respect copyright.PENANABacSnB8FSJ
supposed to check up on The Toxins and I completely forgot.643Please respect copyright.PENANA4HzKnFShdj
I quickly grabbed my 643Please respect copyright.PENANAtLeIxNdcit
phone on the dining table in front of me and I quickly dialled Sam's 643Please respect copyright.PENANA4dGzFtlk6y
number. I put my phone to my ear and waited for her to pick up the call.643Please respect copyright.PENANAD0QyJFbkwT
"Hi, Lee," said Sam when she finally answered.643Please respect copyright.PENANAXR7iKPuL4G
"Sam, hey," I said. I was so exhausted, I rubbed my forehead. "Are you done with practise? It's lunchtime."643Please respect copyright.PENANAFPx0LNMgLC
"Ya, we're done with practise."643Please respect copyright.PENANATXk30ixrug
I waited for her to say something else and then realised a strange noise in the background.643Please respect copyright.PENANAGMlyzeoM63
"Sam, where are you?" I asked. "You seem to be in some noisy place. Are you in the dance studio?"643Please respect copyright.PENANAoxRNEzrKGe
"No, we aren't in the dance studio."643Please respect copyright.PENANAktuEOk5CgY
"Then where are you? In the live room recording something or what?"643Please respect copyright.PENANAQZm6cSu2Ad
"Truth be told, we aren't at YG."643Please respect copyright.PENANABiDNKjCpZB
Whatever ounce of 643Please respect copyright.PENANA69kLmL503M
exhaustion I had in my body disappeared as I sat upright. These guys 643Please respect copyright.PENANAuMeA7YrBzZ
weren't at YG so they were probably hanging out somewhere. And obviously643Please respect copyright.PENANA5zUKappiyx
without Collins' permission. Oh, boy.643Please respect copyright.PENANAzXop0z4ACC
"Where are you? You know perfectly well that you can't leave without either Collins' or my permission," I said.643Please respect copyright.PENANAuF7GLlVXfs
"I know and we are so sorry," said Sam. "But we met TOP at YG and decided that we should just hang out."643Please respect copyright.PENANAkhsXtIfUR3
I sighed as I leaned back on my chair again. "I guess if you're with TOP it's fine. But you should've informed me first."643Please respect copyright.PENANArBoDy7rE0N
"Is Collins with you?"643Please respect copyright.PENANAxqSjse0Nsi
"No, he left an hour ago to attend to something. Don't know what it was really. He'll tell me about it later."643Please respect copyright.PENANA3eJ50E8oWl
"Good. I've something else to tell you."643Please respect copyright.PENANAbqztooSTfT
I sat upright on my chair in panic mode again. "What is it?"643Please respect copyright.PENANAlF7iju9YPJ
"Well, I don't know how I should tell you, so don't get mad."643Please respect copyright.PENANAlbsoF0vEIn
"Sam, tell me. You know I don't tell Collins if it's something serious."643Please respect copyright.PENANAwGCcVrVFLx
"Ya, well, this is pretty serious."643Please respect copyright.PENANATqL9HGBzhe
"Tell me then," I insisted.643Please respect copyright.PENANAuOCdjsgemU
"Awwh, Lee, I don't know how to tell you! It's so complicated."643Please respect copyright.PENANASjzYX7qh0V
"Did you and TOP kiss?"643Please respect copyright.PENANAWLEsVPZhGx
"What! No! No way!"643Please respect copyright.PENANAiH2uVXAMug
"Okay, eish." I almost pulled my phone away from my ear from her outburst. "I was just assuming that it happened."643Please respect copyright.PENANAbLnwkOdKrL
"What makes you think that?"643Please respect copyright.PENANA0mqQPqEodl
"Well, it's obvious he flirts with you all the time and maybe he had the chance to finally kiss you."643Please respect copyright.PENANA3EukBTytZH
"I'm not ready for that kind of drama like I had last time, Lee."643Please respect copyright.PENANAnuAI6tgwTH
"Then if that didn't happen, what's going on?"643Please respect copyright.PENANAla4GGOg9RQ
Sam took a deep breath over the phone and hesitated for a few seconds.643Please respect copyright.PENANAFFanbrOVgR
"Lee, a lot has happened that you don't know about and you're going to freak if I tell you."643Please respect copyright.PENANArJA9dvHsWG
"Try me, Sam. I've been 643Please respect copyright.PENANAT9O4IER3T1
around you guys like forever. There is always something funny that goes 643Please respect copyright.PENANAtMnyoNHWNn
on that I won't be surprised this time around."643Please respect copyright.PENANACvnWXaSCaE
"No, Lee, this time it's different."643Please respect copyright.PENANAZb7k3j6wMD
"What are you waiting for then? Spill the beans already! Now you're making me nervous."643Please respect copyright.PENANATCBAcp3lgF
"Okay, okay. Yesterday something happened. Ummm, where can I even start? Okay, so, there was someone in the......."643Please respect copyright.PENANAkbgPaBb4YJ
Before Sam could say 643Please respect copyright.PENANAulHZs4h8NI
anything more, she was interrupted by someone in the background. For a 643Please respect copyright.PENANAx3ubo74wtL
moment, I thought it could be TOP or any of her two brothers, but I 643Please respect copyright.PENANAA9tFDtZOWk
quickly realised that it wasn't.643Please respect copyright.PENANA1mVNlrnE3c
"Sam, are you going to talk on the phone all day? We're waiting for you," came a man's voice in the background.643Please respect copyright.PENANAYvugzhRwVj
"Just hold on for a moment, Seunghoon. I'll be right there," said Sam.643Please respect copyright.PENANAfXZ71I8UNX
"What the what! Sam! 643Please respect copyright.PENANAzjUf77WTEw
Whose that!" I asked. I had no idea how I had quickly stood up from my 643Please respect copyright.PENANAep3BQrzY70
seat that even the chair behind me fell to the floor.643Please respect copyright.PENANA6WxV8Cjh8h
"Wait, hold on, give me a643Please respect copyright.PENANAE9rWKeauQ5
few seconds," I heard Sam talk to whoever it was beside her. "Lee? I 643Please respect copyright.PENANALhlpX6s2Nk
know you're freaking out, but that's kind of the long story I wanted to 643Please respect copyright.PENANAk2DMlzGOiy
tell you."643Please respect copyright.PENANAsMZ5MvUkHE
"Wait? Which Seunghoon were you talking to?"643Please respect copyright.PENANAwJxnJd5ouK
"Seunghoon from WINNER."643Please respect copyright.PENANAYjXK8tZLQr
I thought the world 643Please respect copyright.PENANA7RGSA168i1
below my feet will open and swallow me whole any moment now. I also felt643Please respect copyright.PENANAfBvwm9DUSs
a wave of dizziness as I held my head and tried to stand steady.643Please respect copyright.PENANAt62yXzal74
"Sam, I'm going to faint643Please respect copyright.PENANAnquSruiSt7
right now and I'm alone in this hotel," I said. I took a deep breath. 643Please respect copyright.PENANAw9AwQy6M1q
"Are you for real? Seunghoon from WINNER, like YG's own WINNER?"643Please respect copyright.PENANA3No4SI0qsx
"Yes! And there's a lot more that's happened, it might be worse."643Please respect copyright.PENANAxDrEopWZ34
"Oh no, Sam. Like what? Collins is going to freak."643Please respect copyright.PENANAiTdXMaK8wc
"I know, but I've a plan."643Please respect copyright.PENANAuLeLO5joCt
"Don't you always? How bad is the situation?"643Please respect copyright.PENANAh8kx29hd3I
"Very bad to the point where your mind could easily be blown away. And probably not in a good way."643Please respect copyright.PENANAuX9b9nCamG
"Wait, Seunghoon isn't the only person with you, is he?"643Please respect copyright.PENANAkI76nmXqd4
"Yes, and it's much worse than that. If you want to know more, go online and see what's trending on Twitter."643Please respect copyright.PENANAL2J0mfyqU7
"Okay, but can't I just come to where you guys are now and pick you up? Before things get any worse, I mean."643Please respect copyright.PENANANiXOWF4pfY
"Or you can just join in643Please respect copyright.PENANAEOumPog6hC
the fun. Things are already worse as it is and we're all just going 643Please respect copyright.PENANAQZsJBquNiF
with the flow. If I were you, I would be here at Times Square with us."643Please respect copyright.PENANAy5lEhvlaBR
"Okay, I'll be there. 643Please respect copyright.PENANAOHbYU2epwt
But before then I'll have to see what kind of show you guys have put up 643Please respect copyright.PENANAvsQyGrQAso
on social media so that I know what's going on. Why of all places did 643Please respect copyright.PENANAO5yys5NpXo
you choose Times Square to hang out anyway?"643Please respect copyright.PENANAyS6iRR3FHM
"That's another long story. You see, we were on a bus..."643Please respect copyright.PENANActaCIUvpIN
"You guys went on a bus?" I couldn't believe what I was hearing. "I am really missing out on this."643Please respect copyright.PENANA9DnJS2kMvM
"And there is more. So you better come here quick if you want me to tell you the whole story."643Please respect copyright.PENANAUQOU3xVx2Q
"Alright, I'm on my way."643Please respect copyright.PENANAlJO2aX0AiO
I quickly cut the call 643Please respect copyright.PENANA6Y22xUwTbb
and before I could arrange for the chauffeur to come pick me up, I went 643Please respect copyright.PENANAaAPqqr6V1W
on Twitter just as Sam had suggested I should. When I saw what was on 643Please respect copyright.PENANAk0LU4WdMGE
the trending list, I was a little confused.643Please respect copyright.PENANAflz8yHahNx
But once I realised what was trending on number three, almost made me faint for real.643Please respect copyright.PENANAj7OdtDwb0B
***643Please respect copyright.PENANA20fThZOCnf
Sam's P.O.V643Please respect copyright.PENANAOAitdIPxKl
I643Please respect copyright.PENANAesbFrMIOWx
quickly put my phone in my pocket and when I turned around, I found 643Please respect copyright.PENANALLekI6qg2J
everyone the same way I left them, taking pictures, mostly selfies with 643Please respect copyright.PENANA4IUv7SHa7z
the fans.643Please respect copyright.PENANAjqP2Bs9bck
Since643Please respect copyright.PENANAotvaPPJORX
we came to Times Square, all we did was take pictures. The picture 643Please respect copyright.PENANALyAGv9uji5
frenzy all begun when we were spotted by fans as we walked in the 643Please respect copyright.PENANA8qJBSgSER8
massive Times Square complex.643Please respect copyright.PENANA9Jr3Hit7Fd
So643Please respect copyright.PENANACLLdq7cze2
far so good, my plan seem to be going smoothly. I got the reaction I 643Please respect copyright.PENANAp7y5XyOgFz
needed from the fans and already, we were trending all over Twitter. A 643Please respect copyright.PENANACfr2EJBYSu
good thing on my part, but obviously a bad one when our managers find 643Please respect copyright.PENANARfzyIftZ90
out. Hopefully they wouldn't get mad to the point where it might be 643Please respect copyright.PENANAyuq6wtHuzj
serious.643Please respect copyright.PENANANssm00czai
"It's643Please respect copyright.PENANAzcoVCOSpPs
about time you were done with that call," said Seunghoon as he came 643Please respect copyright.PENANA5oC19VLRzO
flying, landed by my side with his phone held up and his arm around my 643Please respect copyright.PENANAEPNnsUnTbQ
shoulder to take a selfie. "Smile."643Please respect copyright.PENANAv5Ibirgnch
I643Please respect copyright.PENANAzlVmczBLJn
smiled at the camera, even when I didn't want to. Seunghoon has been 643Please respect copyright.PENANAXEP9XyLL9V
acting too clingy. And as much as that wasn't a bad thing, it was 643Please respect copyright.PENANAoefeUrVXAq
somewhat worrying.643Please respect copyright.PENANAstKGMbBrui
"So cute," he said as he looked at the photo. "You and I make a very cute couple."643Please respect copyright.PENANAp4ux5taguS
"No, we don't," I answered when I looked at the photo with my eyebrows raised.643Please respect copyright.PENANAZItITrIB0C
"I agree with Sam," said TOP, who came to stand beside me to look at the photo. "You don't."643Please respect copyright.PENANA6OpyD9DZJT
"You're just saying that because you like her," said Seunghoon.643Please respect copyright.PENANAPWfeZApqRG
"You're right. I do."643Please respect copyright.PENANAQxCh1Jkn6y
"Can you two fight later when I'm not here?" I asked as I waved my hand in the air.643Please respect copyright.PENANAJ03Of3KnYj
"Don't worry Seunghoon," said Zoey as she approached us. "You two look cute together, honestly."643Please respect copyright.PENANASEyY9b9E94
"Thank you," said Seunghoon as he beamed at Zoey.643Please respect copyright.PENANAXRk4uLDUvj
TOP and I just murmured. I ended up rolling my eyes and frowning.643Please respect copyright.PENANA9AIYXgyRvw
"Now that we have made a statement to the whole world that we've already met, what next?" Zoey asked.643Please respect copyright.PENANAIMycptDA5C
"You're643Please respect copyright.PENANAOIXkFWxN0g
in Times Square," said Lisa as she came to stand beside Zoey. "One of 643Please respect copyright.PENANAzeNE1eyQjb
the biggest shopping complexes in Korea. There are a ton of stuff to do 643Please respect copyright.PENANAL8IKNOVuH1
around here."643Please respect copyright.PENANAmJTEcG9Uqv
"Shopping would have been nice but we didn't carry our credit cards," said Christine as she came to join us.643Please respect copyright.PENANA38D4gP8Jjy
"Who said we need to 643Please respect copyright.PENANAeCKymMqZs5
shop to have fun?" Mino asked as he followed Christine behind her. 643Please respect copyright.PENANAmllwqcdHfJ
"Times Square is an awesome place and you can do so many things."643Please respect copyright.PENANAfzXplrtn5j
"Fine, then what do you suggest we do?" I asked. "You guys know the place. So, I suggest you be our tour guides."643Please respect copyright.PENANA71EZtIvbOH
"It will be our honour," said Rosé as she came and gave a playful little bow.643Please respect copyright.PENANAViQmXUf3Tf
"I think I know where to start," said Jinwoo.643Please respect copyright.PENANAwKLcrQwRBc
"Where?" Zoey asked.643Please respect copyright.PENANA3N4ShL3TZK
"Has any of you seen the largest screen in the world?"643Please respect copyright.PENANArfvChvw2Q7
My mind started to tingle in a funny way and I felt my face lit up when Jinwoo said that.643Please respect copyright.PENANASnxEVCY2nU
"Wait, a minute!" I 643Please respect copyright.PENANAHk7x845NA1
said. "This is the place which holds the largest screen in the world, 643Please respect copyright.PENANAwMKkYKWa5b
right? CGV Starium, the world's largest permanent 35 mm cinema screen."643Please respect copyright.PENANAZhMf5vUcXc
"That's correct," said Jinwoo.643Please respect copyright.PENANASIKMFI2quK
"Oh, no," said Zoey as she covered her ears. "Nerd alert!"643Please respect copyright.PENANAtrTYzYj1ps
"Did someone just say 643Please respect copyright.PENANA7axt3ib6Oj
'Nerd alert?'" Mike asked as he came to join us after taking pictures 643Please respect copyright.PENANAyH2ehYDSgc
with some of the fans with Seungyoon. "What did Sam do now?"643Please respect copyright.PENANAVMfWnRjLNJ
"Huh?" I looked confused as I shrugged my shoulders and looked at everyone else staring at me.643Please respect copyright.PENANAGGEoKAeIVt
"You're doing that thing643Please respect copyright.PENANAyvB2YHzRXs
again where you start talking about all the knowledgeable facts you 643Please respect copyright.PENANAH7gd2pumbD
know in this world," said Zoey. "Like about the largest screen."643Please respect copyright.PENANAaPcqxRbKeO
"Try to be more clear, Zoey. Because I still don't get it."643Please respect copyright.PENANABh5orMQv32
"Well, there's a whole lot more where that came from. Remember in high school you were always up top with general knowledge."643Please respect copyright.PENANAklz6TI3Gvm
"Ya, true," said Mike.643Please respect copyright.PENANA2MpZfSmfSp
"What's wrong with that?" Rosé asked. "Isn't that just how Sam is?"643Please respect copyright.PENANAT8Y7iBOdBg
"I'm not going to 643Please respect copyright.PENANAQylVFPmL0R
tolerate you guys bullying Sam," said Seunghoon as he came behind me and643Please respect copyright.PENANA1ehs4RC4F4
held my shoulders. "She's smart, so deal with it."643Please respect copyright.PENANAABhYwfFwQC
"No, I'm scared that 643Please respect copyright.PENANAPPB2vTXvAL
Jinwoo might be joining her in the nerd train. Chooo-chooo!" said Zoey 643Please respect copyright.PENANAa1kstpkeQs
with a smirk as she imitated the sound of a train.643Please respect copyright.PENANATeH8pNRExZ
I looked at Zoey, then 643Please respect copyright.PENANA0KmrjJvG7D
at Jinwoo who was staring back at me. He also looked as confused as I 643Please respect copyright.PENANAFuvtkryzZv
was. And right now, I was so not liking this. Not when I knew that 643Please respect copyright.PENANAXk314Vw4Pq
Christine liked Jinwoo. She might get the wrong idea and I was not ready643Please respect copyright.PENANALwUVcu86mF
for that bumpy ride again.643Please respect copyright.PENANA8PGQjuzD40
"So, are we going to watch a movie then so that we can go see the big screen?" TOP asked, changing the topic immediately.643Please respect copyright.PENANAROD9dYI30V
"Did someone say movie?" Daniel asked as he, Jisoo and Jennie finally joined us.643Please respect copyright.PENANAuMYSZbTWtc
"That's if you want to see the largest screen in the world," said Seungyoon with a smile.643Please respect copyright.PENANA7YwmkOadyy
Daniel's mouth gaped 643Please respect copyright.PENANAkcf9mWobiB
open, his eyes full of bewilderment as he looked at Seungyoon. "You're 643Please respect copyright.PENANAsJbwnNeO70
serious, right? The largest screen in the world? That's so cool!"643Please respect copyright.PENANAak9XLxWykX
"Oh, ya," said Jennie. "That sounds like a great idea."643Please respect copyright.PENANA16jRq1BstI
"Well, I think we can 643Please respect copyright.PENANAMjQwy7CPom
plan on watching a movie later," said Zoey. "I just realised that I'm so643Please respect copyright.PENANAKxpxiPYvfZ
hungry and I don't think popcorn will do me any good."643Please respect copyright.PENANAAH6IW7Wcll
"Same here," said Mino.643Please respect copyright.PENANAzbYCsCUPYW
Zoey giggled. "At least I'm not the only one. Who's up for lunch?"643Please respect copyright.PENANAVQBmimK5Nh
Everyone including me 643Please respect copyright.PENANANT442pyPqr
raised their hands. I hadn't noticed that we all haven't eaten yet. And 643Please respect copyright.PENANANjq6f4VQ3g
for some of us who just had dance practise and never ate any breakfast 643Please respect copyright.PENANAiokFp5qAK6
needed all the energy we could get if we wanted to last the whole day in643Please respect copyright.PENANANAIJrxbAgb
Times Square.643Please respect copyright.PENANAnKfM5iiSY6
"There's an open food 643Please respect copyright.PENANAUPiagCNElE
court down this way," said Seungyoon as he jerked his head to the side 643Please respect copyright.PENANAssBSeVB2j0
pointing to the other end of the wide open lobby.643Please respect copyright.PENANAQQDBTgcdbn
"Gosh, I've now realised643Please respect copyright.PENANAgh90phcJjp
that I hadn't eaten breakfast," said Daniel who walked beside me 643Please respect copyright.PENANAZhDcKVRXz0
holding his tummy as we made our way towards the other end.643Please respect copyright.PENANAiqi64hYOpf
"What took you so long to even realise it?" Jisoo asked as she ruffled his hair.643Please respect copyright.PENANABYoj2MxfKu
"Sometimes the excitement gets to you that you don't feel a thing until later on."643Please respect copyright.PENANAlrfW8wU1VH
"No wonder you Toxins 643Please respect copyright.PENANA7bwbW93Zxh
have a big appetite," said TOP who walked behind me. "You never eat 643Please respect copyright.PENANApZ6C2BpKD5
breakfast before practise and that's why you eat so much."643Please respect copyright.PENANAR2IiPUTaht
"No, we don't!" Zoey argued behind me.643Please respect copyright.PENANArbb1OnLxW8
"Have you seen yourself eat? I'm telling you, you guys have a massive appetite."643Please respect copyright.PENANAw1nupKQGxP
"But that's because we use up all our energy," said Christine. "When we practise all we take is water and nothing else."643Please respect copyright.PENANALrqO9ZqAx2
"You should have been a fish then," said TOP as he chuckled.643Please respect copyright.PENANAd4Nt2jkmm0
Zoey, Christine and the 643Please respect copyright.PENANAGZVLyQ2nft
rest of BlackPink behind me gasped in the most dramatic way any girl 643Please respect copyright.PENANArbgVMyCTDW
would ever do. The rest of us kept quiet to see where all this was 643Please respect copyright.PENANAR2wBx4SEj3
going.643Please respect copyright.PENANAYUyGzSZoNg
"That's insulting," said Jennie.643Please respect copyright.PENANAVnDK9QdNKs
"I know I'm annoying sometimes but that doesn't mean you have to call me a fish, Choi," said Zoey.643Please respect copyright.PENANAZbkWMsu5C9
"Okay, fine I take that back," said TOP. "You're a jellyfish."643Please respect copyright.PENANAeaiFAkaSGD
I burst out laughing 643Please respect copyright.PENANAoGJqLc0zaA
with the rest of the others. Our laughs were so loud that everyone in 643Please respect copyright.PENANAPfsdfGgXBn
the wide lobby and maybe including those up the first floor of the 643Please respect copyright.PENANAC9m5r9kjAU
complex, looked at us. I hope our laughs didn't echo all the way up the 643Please respect copyright.PENANAnvkmJjOsBd
other floors because that would surly be something.643Please respect copyright.PENANAJZGfpKru0O
"Good one, TOP," said 643Please respect copyright.PENANAPUCrxlPSMn
Mike as he wiped away the tears from his eyes and laughed. "I wouldn't 643Please respect copyright.PENANAT1Ajn27acZ
have thought of that in a million years."643Please respect copyright.PENANAhoGfoOr96o
Everyone continued to 643Please respect copyright.PENANAQJ7LT5BIYn
laugh except from Zoey of course, who looked like like the odd one out 643Please respect copyright.PENANAZOUzCH1quf
from the rest of us with her arms folded and giving us the look showing 643Please respect copyright.PENANAw5rfVw9fPo
how annoyed she was.643Please respect copyright.PENANArU6gWKRgcP
"I can't believe you 643Please respect copyright.PENANAzRDizaqp3W
just said that to me, TOP," said Zoey as she looked at Choi. 643Please respect copyright.PENANAooBrBtpsI0
Surprisingly her tone was calm. "You've really disappointed me."643Please respect copyright.PENANALJ24q1dLBG
"Don't worry, Zoey," 643Please respect copyright.PENANAXnvaUhXVZL
said TOP as he came and wrapped his arm around her shoulder, giving her a643Please respect copyright.PENANAY21sITyMbT
brief hug. "I was just messing with you."643Please respect copyright.PENANAYsVKmHF4Rh
"Careful," said Jinwoo. "You don't want her to sting you since she's a jellyfish."643Please respect copyright.PENANAEeggwVYjka
"She always stings," said Daniel. "So, TOP, you better get prepared for the worst."643Please respect copyright.PENANALkfMJKkbVA
"I'll sting him so bad, 643Please respect copyright.PENANAy0pOcLwf3P
he will regret it," said Zoey as she furrowed her eyebrows and looked at643Please respect copyright.PENANAX8qY0zihMd
TOP next to her. TOP just continued to smile.643Please respect copyright.PENANACAazrTJ6zT
"Oh, look, a stage," 643Please respect copyright.PENANAsFBAbCmd6j
said Daniel, pointing in front of him. That drew our attention away from643Please respect copyright.PENANAefMPF3lMBP
Zoey and to where Daniel was pointing at.643Please respect copyright.PENANAmCxth8fOZk
In the direction Daniel 643Please respect copyright.PENANAtsl095aHnG
pointed at stood a small round stage. Daniel was even bold enough to go 643Please respect copyright.PENANABQuIQTzpao
there and get up on it. We all followed him.643Please respect copyright.PENANAHMb4fg1y9Y
"I've missed being on 643Please respect copyright.PENANAjGPAuE60qr
stage," said Daniel as he walked around the stage with so much jolly 643Please respect copyright.PENANAvSzfe5ektC
that he even started to showcase his dance moves.643Please respect copyright.PENANASkdDOQfKa5
Jisoo also joined him up on the stage and started to dance alongside Daniel.643Please respect copyright.PENANAPDKlqB2Wwm
"Come on, guys, we aren't supposed to be there," said Seungyoon.643Please respect copyright.PENANAYLlHhGuzfT
"We're just having fun,"643Please respect copyright.PENANAOQODaUa7e4
said Daniel. He turned to look at Jisoo and offered up his hand to her.643Please respect copyright.PENANAgwamZ6fAW2
Jisoo gladly took it and Daniel spun her around, dragging her close to 643Please respect copyright.PENANAOK5Fx2Wocw
him and in the end held her waist and bended her backwards so that she 643Please respect copyright.PENANAobA7iQGNWX
could be looking up at him and he down at her. It looked they had just 643Please respect copyright.PENANAVzli04MGEV
done a ballroom dance and had added the finishing move.643Please respect copyright.PENANAVjxtdszHmh
The rest of us down the 643Please respect copyright.PENANABd7TYZDUUj
stage cheered and clapped for them. I was pretty impressed with Daniel 643Please respect copyright.PENANAhLVpNwODfU
though. I never knew he even had interest in ballroom dancing. He was 643Please respect copyright.PENANAisy9bGjvjR
one who never even had a date to his high school prom, so seeing this 643Please respect copyright.PENANA0JLZr61i8q
side of him was a shocker.643Please respect copyright.PENANA3lwkfXL5WA
"Wow, Daniel," said Lisa. "I never knew you could dance like that."643Please respect copyright.PENANA9F6nAbDT4W
"Thanks," said Daniel after Jisoo had finally stood up straight.643Please respect copyright.PENANAiqLxSw7CCm
"Mum would be so proud,"643Please respect copyright.PENANAFC70dH4moq
said Mike with a mood of sentiment in his voice. "She would think 643Please respect copyright.PENANAguJkHH92uJ
you've now grown up to be a gentleman."643Please respect copyright.PENANAGIzunPxJPy
"Haha, very funny," said643Please respect copyright.PENANAZghspEmY7p
Daniel as he folded his arms and looked at Mike. "You want me to dance 643Please respect copyright.PENANApXl0V4PH9e
again so that you can capture it on video, don't you?"643Please respect copyright.PENANAZD8LwVpff5
I looked at Mike and he 643Please respect copyright.PENANA8f2ooyOykq
had a smirk on his face. He already had his phone in his hand and was 643Please respect copyright.PENANAVt4T56KaFf
twirling it around like it was something light. "You know me so well, 643Please respect copyright.PENANAp5ascLgbrT
bro. Sometimes I feel we were meant to be twins."643Please respect copyright.PENANAWpZU332dOA
"Thank goodness, you aren't," said Zoey. "I can't handle two Mikes."643Please respect copyright.PENANAOfbW1UPr8F
"I'm still not going to 643Please respect copyright.PENANAEHUEcuDtSx
dance so that you can capture me on video," said Daniel. "Well, not 643Please respect copyright.PENANAj7HLrhkEQ1
alone with Jisoo. It would look weird on my part."643Please respect copyright.PENANAQ3vv6aW73h
"I'll join you then," said Mino as he walked up on stage and then turned around to look at Zoey offering his hand to led her up.643Please respect copyright.PENANAr8FwOjSvGF
"Care to dance with me?" Mino asked.643Please respect copyright.PENANAAXgFVwdD9x
Zoey folded her arms and looked away, rejecting the offer. She could be so skittish sometimes.643Please respect copyright.PENANAMmQcu4hngA
"No," she said still not643Please respect copyright.PENANAGMbZ2tRiVG
looking at Mino. "I'm not going up there since someone called me a 643Please respect copyright.PENANAtBIQfBSbOr
jellyfish. So my dance moves will obviously be pathetic."643Please respect copyright.PENANA2IcoRVImK6
Everyone turned to look 643Please respect copyright.PENANAMhS3anCPmk
at Zoey and suddenly us Toxins all mourned in annoyance at the same 643Please respect copyright.PENANAz6kVizkq8q
time. Mike and Daniel both hit their heads at the same time while 643Please respect copyright.PENANAr9cVnFPL6D
Christine and I rolled our eyes which still landed back on Zoey. This 643Please respect copyright.PENANAPwCmQBO44s
was the melodramatic Zoey, alright. And the only way to soothe her anger643Please respect copyright.PENANAXfdDhXbOzO
was to sweet talk her somehow.643Please respect copyright.PENANAxx9q3HMxyr
"You're still hovering over that joke?" Mike asked. "FYI, it ended a good five minutes ago."643Please respect copyright.PENANAoqpY8Wiwkv
"I never knew Zoey could be this difficult," whispered Jennie behind me in my ear.643Please respect copyright.PENANABzq1TERD1C
"Trust me, this is just the scope," I whispered back.643Please respect copyright.PENANACx7k6FaZNL
"Come on, Zoey," said TOP. "Don't you think you're taking this a little too far?"643Please respect copyright.PENANAEegdfr01NF
"No, I'm not," she replied. This time she even pouted her lip.643Please respect copyright.PENANA032P3B8dmA
"It's not nice to leave Mino hanging like that," said Christine. "Don't forget that you aren't a jellyfish. You're Zoey."643Please respect copyright.PENANA8dZNF42SLb
"Our sweet, sweet Zoey," I added the cherry on top.643Please respect copyright.PENANA1M4p4ujcny
"Our sweet like sugar, Zoey," said Lisa, following my lead.643Please respect copyright.PENANARyTKv4gBRz
"You're sweet like sugar," sang Jisoo on stage.643Please respect copyright.PENANAqcWC3A5Bbm
"You're sweet like sugar," Jennie and Rosé sang along.643Please respect copyright.PENANA7k3Ra7wyNq
"This sugar got us sprung," Christine and I joined in.643Please respect copyright.PENANACoTVDJU3Eo
I snapped my fingers 643Please respect copyright.PENANAycAKuNnlJ3
following a certain tune and the rest of the girls even Jisoo on stage 643Please respect copyright.PENANAGJeyzr6nfa
joined in. Zoey's attention was captured by us all snapping our fingers.643Please respect copyright.PENANAYvyR4w2P1y
I approached Zoey from behind with Christine, Jennie, Rosé and Lisa, 643Please respect copyright.PENANAWBJPHCw2T4
forming a half circle, still snapping our fingers.643Please respect copyright.PENANASdLmMHUfcM
The girls: Da double dee double di [x3] 643Please respect copyright.PENANAyCX4rXJ7hh
Lisa: You're sweet like 643Please respect copyright.PENANAwrVhldfPfv
All girls: Da double dee double di [x2]643Please respect copyright.PENANAdmiMjDnsBY
Jennie: You're sweet like 643Please respect copyright.PENANAzPuQ7EVNg9
All girls: Da double dee double di Sugar 643Please respect copyright.PENANATV9cY7MGkT
We all ended up giving a643Please respect copyright.PENANA9TZSdGaOIz
Zoey a little shove in the back and she took a step forward. Mino took 643Please respect copyright.PENANA5TV8XDGuDT
the opportunity to grab her hand and bring her up on stage. What a way 643Please respect copyright.PENANAk9eUElm8ka
to make an entry. When Zoey got on stage, Mino spun her around. Zoey 643Please respect copyright.PENANAm0Nx7Q9pxN
looked confused as to what was going on until Mino started to rap out 643Please respect copyright.PENANAy0alakFHIM
the words to Flo Rida's "Sweet Like Sugar" verse.643Please respect copyright.PENANAb1ju1OC0LK
Mino: Hey, I've got a mouth full of cavities.643Please respect copyright.PENANANaojE81LHL
Sweet tooth, full of mama, like sugar to me.643Please respect copyright.PENANA32Xto9fAQU
So my love with the lips, put a bug in the ear tone.643Please respect copyright.PENANAqDJsOrVQ9a
Shawty gotta kiss, it's an emergency. Spit sprung for the taste, addicted to her gloss.643Please respect copyright.PENANAP7MyTqkMiz
Daniel who was following suit with Mino and dancing with Jisoo also rapped the first verse.643Please respect copyright.PENANAbgVHIQ3CEO
Daniel: Won't smile this way, baby I rub it off.643Please respect copyright.PENANAzbIvHwzsVq
Put my tongue in your face A little mistletoe, sippin Gram I A.643Please respect copyright.PENANAtRBDzwFwVy
Im a fan all day.643Please respect copyright.PENANA7iKplm2wxX
Do me that favor, cuz I like your flavor.643Please respect copyright.PENANAg3ZyTMJAyG
My manage behavior; Im into your major.643Please respect copyright.PENANAISh1Vvyqeg
Sweeter so flavor, thats good for this player.643Please respect copyright.PENANARnVnRRRjh2
Mike grabbed Jennie's hand and on their way to the stage, he also rapped:643Please respect copyright.PENANAgpEh4nQrgT
Mike: My hood, now and later, throw back like a pager.643Please respect copyright.PENANA3eoOu7pPkl
Pretty much, youre givin me a sugar rush.643Please respect copyright.PENANANn6FqBHzWa
Lil mama, give me high blood pressure when you blush.643Please respect copyright.PENANAYC9ZXBsGoD
Lips feel soft as a feather when we touch, Shawty thats whats up. 643Please respect copyright.PENANAesTEseR6Br
The three couples on 643Please respect copyright.PENANAUMXAqO3jrk
stage dancing and the guys twirling the girls around got me smiling. And643Please respect copyright.PENANAuny9o7sfS2
surprisingly, I was dancing my way on stage as I sang the chorus. I 643Please respect copyright.PENANA1RsXQVIqbO
spun around and I found myself at the centre of the stage while the 643Please respect copyright.PENANAoDYxR7TjcF
three couples surrounding me in a circle.643Please respect copyright.PENANApsNiMnezvN
Me: My lips like sugar [x2]643Please respect copyright.PENANAUjrh0rJziZ
This candy got you sprung [x2]643Please respect copyright.PENANAG2HR5IEYjr
So call me your sugar [x2]643Please respect copyright.PENANAPd8hEYb4hN
You love you some [x2]643Please respect copyright.PENANAYNgfDpSAYY
I'm sweet like 643Please respect copyright.PENANAH4ZfBaKoto
All girls: Da double dee double di [x3] 643Please respect copyright.PENANAJPc3ShMCVq
I'm sweet like Da double dee double di [x2]643Please respect copyright.PENANAeg99MsAOwz
I'm sweet like Da double dee double di643Please respect copyright.PENANApCevb291aQ
Sugar643Please respect copyright.PENANAQOl2Dt7Kn5
Seunghoon came up on 643Please respect copyright.PENANAwcU5d0prXx
stage and joined me at the centre. I smiled at him as he held my hand. 643Please respect copyright.PENANAXyUDXL3u29
We danced together as he rapped out the second verse.643Please respect copyright.PENANAhE1KW7aMdh
Down stage, Seungyoon 643Please respect copyright.PENANAvnsXCQdd93
paired with Lisa, Jinwoo with Christine and TOP with Rosé. Everyone had a643Please respect copyright.PENANAiRtIu9sjOY
partner and it was so fun. We faced our partner as we danced. The 643Please respect copyright.PENANAHffj2DY295
ladies every now and then will be twirled around and the fact that we 643Please respect copyright.PENANAbKwfhRWalb
all did that simultaneously was awesome.643Please respect copyright.PENANAvrbr4NLLkZ
The other guys continued to rap out Flo Rida's verses while we could all sing out the chorus together.643Please respect copyright.PENANAzlX4YMPmct
All: My lips like sugar (x2)643Please respect copyright.PENANAl7aQkH3gTD
This candy got you sprung (x2)643Please respect copyright.PENANAuh0DYZj0hc
So call me your sugar (x2)643Please respect copyright.PENANAOvsyQZHhNP
You love you some (x2)643Please respect copyright.PENANAUibxVPQ3AN
I'm sweet like Da double dee double di (x3)643Please respect copyright.PENANAfJB1XAf7Lx
I'm sweet like Da double dee double di (x2) 643Please respect copyright.PENANAc6pMAcD2Pu
I'm sweet like Da double dee double di643Please respect copyright.PENANAFPC1MfQSw8
Sugar 643Please respect copyright.PENANA9wxktYhDQz
I643Please respect copyright.PENANATdIchHN5f0
was staring straight into Seunghoon's eyes as he and I breathed out 643Please respect copyright.PENANASQYYPhMbmc
heavily right after we finished the song. Our foreheads touched as we 643Please respect copyright.PENANAFEAVAl3Q0i
looked at each other and for a moment, all I could see and feel was him 643Please respect copyright.PENANANgGGlH08Ub
until a loud round of applause brought me back from my little world. I 643Please respect copyright.PENANARc6VNiKyZP
quickly broke away from Seunghoon.643Please respect copyright.PENANA9CentXQPzs
Onlookers643Please respect copyright.PENANAzKLiljkD5S
in the lobby had surrounded the stage to watch us perform when all we 643Please respect copyright.PENANAQKRqWZ9YyC
did was just have fun and dance on stage. Bright lights from people's 643Please respect copyright.PENANAf1onxLBWlz
phones blinked before my eyes and there were loud screams from the fans.643Please respect copyright.PENANAry4Y8SGWJh
For a moment, I felt a little confused until I slowly took it all in.643Please respect copyright.PENANAIUGTkMZxBu
"Wow, what's happening?" Zoey asked. I looked to my side and I hadn't noticed that she was standing next to me.643Please respect copyright.PENANAyFFOrtRAsM
"Looks like we just performed in front of a crowd without realising it," I answered.643Please respect copyright.PENANAcNUcpQErR6
I looked at everyone else on stage and also those those who danced down stage. They also looked as confused.643Please respect copyright.PENANAOTQbVBeXrP
"Isn't this where we all take a bow?" Seunghoon asked as he came to whisper in my ear.643Please respect copyright.PENANAH9dDzFVe3X
"Ya, we really should," I answered.643Please respect copyright.PENANAm5Do2Z50uE
"We should do what?" Mike asked as he came to stand next to Seunghoon.643Please respect copyright.PENANAwk6Y4FkV5h
"Take a bow," I said.643Please respect copyright.PENANAl5ghmx9vfg
Zoey who stood next to 643Please respect copyright.PENANAvflcPXDRXo
me held my hand and I saw Mino standing next to her also take hold of 643Please respect copyright.PENANAoWz5XggQRN
her's. I felt Seunghoon's fingers enclose around my hand. Mike also took643Please respect copyright.PENANAe9f4XJfzfm
Seunghoon's and Jennie's hand. And the rest of the others who were down643Please respect copyright.PENANABiLpCawxTX
stage came and joined us in the joining of hands. Then all together we 643Please respect copyright.PENANAkTpMjqA0s3
bowed at the same time and we received an even bigger round of applause.643Please respect copyright.PENANAktFXxCSg5v
"Well, this just got 643Please respect copyright.PENANAO0sW94acw9
interesting," said TOP. Somehow, I still managed to get him through the 643Please respect copyright.PENANAJ9s8YaPXxl
loud noise of the audience who kept on cheering.643Please respect copyright.PENANAVT0RWbh0Y6
"It's about to get even more interesting," said Mike. "Look who's in the crowd."643Please respect copyright.PENANAsZyyeIa46P
The way Mike said it 643Please respect copyright.PENANAjuvLKhSOsr
made me think of Collins and my heart skipped a beat as I looked at the 643Please respect copyright.PENANAQODqDCFswQ
crowd. Was Collins here? But then my heart settled when I saw who was 643Please respect copyright.PENANAy4vPwdA7wG
making their way to us through the crowd. Lee.643Please respect copyright.PENANAdMplMXOEDi
"I told her to come here," I said with a smile and I broke away from the others to head to Lee.643Please respect copyright.PENANAI1yexDK1Po
When I got down from the643Please respect copyright.PENANA6UD7nfah9k
stage, Lee had already gotten away from the screaming fans. And the 643Please respect copyright.PENANAPnPwF9V0tM
surprising thing was that I hadn't noticed that the security had come in643Please respect copyright.PENANAocWV1ool3X
to handle the crowd from getting up on stage. Noticing the commotion, I643Please respect copyright.PENANApNJiYNQX1i
quickly grabbed Lee's hand and pulled her with me up on stage.643Please respect copyright.PENANA4s4nv6ps5p
"Well, you guys sure 643Please respect copyright.PENANAs8wNy95ez2
know who to stir a crowd," said Lee as she looked behind her. "I even 643Please respect copyright.PENANArM48VmfblN
had to warn the security before I could even get here."643Please respect copyright.PENANAOUAp0ARXjV
"Lee, you're here!" came Daniel and the next thing I know, all four Toxins had quickly surrounded Lee into a hug.643Please respect copyright.PENANAbAGflvuP9H
"Goodness!" Lee couldn't643Please respect copyright.PENANAOxnMNqDRfe
believe all the love she was getting that she couldn't help but smile. 643Please respect copyright.PENANAWz016EZc8f
"I haven't been gone forever, you know?"643Please respect copyright.PENANAH0hMt3sR7Q
"We just missed you, 643Please respect copyright.PENANAPORnt8PlHK
that's all," said Zoey, they were all still hugging her. "You're usually643Please respect copyright.PENANAmavTEnBNjj
with us but these past days you haven't."643Please respect copyright.PENANALh5IDj6NDZ
"You're right and I miss all of you too. Been caught up with work. And now, you have all given me a much bigger mess to clean."643Please respect copyright.PENANAq25C3bFlMW
"Does Collins know?" Christine asked as they all broke away from hugging Lee.643Please respect copyright.PENANAF0FqDbVotv
"He would've called by 643Please respect copyright.PENANAvPspdpufzQ
now," Lee answered. "Yang Hyun-suk would've done the same, but so far, 643Please respect copyright.PENANAZ5yovkjWrd
no calls from the grim reapers yet."643Please respect copyright.PENANACN474dtqIO
"When you put it like that you make it sound like a bad thing," said Mike as he sulked.643Please respect copyright.PENANAPDvLC5Buhe
"It is!" Lee emphasised through the loud noise of the crowd behind her. "You better have a reason for all this. Sam?"643Please respect copyright.PENANA4Ghxcs7qoz
Immediately Lee focused 643Please respect copyright.PENANAZg5mdK3ZtS
on me, the other Toxins did the same. I hated such moments when everyone643Please respect copyright.PENANARq4slRRzGf
looks at you just because you have to give an explanation. For now, I 643Please respect copyright.PENANAd2ntbMpiwb
couldn't blame them.643Please respect copyright.PENANACh64Vwg3rk
"We've a lot to tell you, Lee," I started.643Please respect copyright.PENANAQlSLBSWN16
"That's true," said TOP as he came from behind to stand next to me.643Please respect copyright.PENANAATjuQajl7a
"How643Please respect copyright.PENANAYM7UX8cI9r
did you even allow all of this to happen, TOP?" Lee asked as she looked643Please respect copyright.PENANASlpCwl2Iy5
at him. "And you ended up joining in the fun and turned this place into643Please respect copyright.PENANAZgaEFv9GA4
your own dance hall."643Please respect copyright.PENANA3tyl3yHA4K
"Can you hear us out first?" Zoey asked. "Because all this just didn't start from YG."643Please respect copyright.PENANANpbc6ywRKp
Lee had a horrified look on her face as she looked at Zoey. "What do you mean?"643Please respect copyright.PENANADRxlLrpIMx
"It all started yesterday," said Mike.643Please respect copyright.PENANAAC1EsV2SVg
"And....?" Lee was waiting for someone to go on with the explanation until.....643Please respect copyright.PENANAn9mnmZvz7y
"I was in Sam's and Zoey's closet," came Seunghoon who came to to stand on my other side.643Please respect copyright.PENANAnJyu4kg8ww
Lee looked shocked. First of all, because of Seunghoon's sudden appearance and second, because of what he said.643Please respect copyright.PENANA4959yh9Ngi
"You were in what now!" Lee asked, looking like she was going to faint.643Please respect copyright.PENANAZE8aRLVnuy
"I told you it was a long story," I said. "Why don't we just talk about this over lunch? We're really starved."643Please respect copyright.PENANAEn8Nczl21r
"No,643Please respect copyright.PENANAbDyv9o4H71
wait, hold up," said Lee as she held her hand up. "How WINNER comes 643Please respect copyright.PENANAneebmkrygq
into the picture, I now understand, but what about BlackPink? Don't tell643Please respect copyright.PENANAVZuFpRbSsZ
me someone else was hiding in the boy's closet too!"643Please respect copyright.PENANA77MVqMEQNz
"That would have been nice," said Mike with a stupid grin on his face. I threw him a look and the smile fell right away.643Please respect copyright.PENANAg5xqYBi7pM
"No, we met them today," said Lisa as she came to stand beside Seunghoon and looked at him. "You hid in the girl's closet?"643Please respect copyright.PENANAzuW0yb709z
"It was a surprise," said Seunghoon.643Please respect copyright.PENANA5mGYkFRnBC
"That's something," said Jennie as she rolled her eyes and came to join us with the rest of BlackPink and WINNER.643Please respect copyright.PENANAnKAWL5JPzl
"Don't blame me for being a fan," said Seunghoon.643Please respect copyright.PENANAyrNvxm7mxP
"I told him we should've come up with another surprise," said Seungyoon.643Please respect copyright.PENANAxb1OtC8hdG
"Well, he barely listens to us anyway," said Jinwoo.643Please respect copyright.PENANAFNaDCHNWz8
I643Please respect copyright.PENANAbVm0PTVecO
looked at Lee and realised that her face was losing colour as she 643Please respect copyright.PENANAgLZ4G9SR3k
looked at the number of people standing before her. Now that she knows 643Please respect copyright.PENANAA0krPBMW6b
she wasn't just dealing with The Toxins but now BlackPink and WINNER, it643Please respect copyright.PENANAmQrlaOB4vP
was a lot to take in.643Please respect copyright.PENANANcfdzsHFxn
"I think I'm going to faint," said Lee. "This is just too much even your managers will explode."643Please respect copyright.PENANALm1h82AbFI
"That's643Please respect copyright.PENANAqNDCFc0jLi
why you shouldn't worry about a thing," I said. "We all know that we 643Please respect copyright.PENANAP6uTTdUO69
are in trouble and there is simply nothing we can do about it. We all 643Please respect copyright.PENANAhR3qjL6quS
wanted to hang out and even if we were to do it in secret, they would 643Please respect copyright.PENANAvyKIxaaLAk
still find out anyway."643Please respect copyright.PENANA8yBXSePJpS
Lee scratched her head. "You're right on that one. There's nothing we can do but feel their warth when they find out."643Please respect copyright.PENANAlrD87YPyWA
"As long as we had fun today, I've no regrets," said Mino.643Please respect copyright.PENANAY40Xb8b729
Everyone643Please respect copyright.PENANA802PGh0bbY
else apart from Lee agreed. Even I had to admit, we had fun and we had 643Please respect copyright.PENANAum3nlK8ZzM
only just started. We had a lot of things to do in Times Square and 643Please respect copyright.PENANA9fny5ZIIxB
somehow the anxiety was killing me.643Please respect copyright.PENANAFV708J7NuP
After643Please respect copyright.PENANA87shvSuUE6
the crowd had cleared away from the stage, we were now back to the plan643Please respect copyright.PENANACGRNXjmQIt
we had had before. And that was having lunch. We were on our way to the643Please respect copyright.PENANAnbeYJXUsSS
food court when Lee asked:643Please respect copyright.PENANAk9CMDx7vj0
"Who came up with that hash tag on Twitter?"643Please respect copyright.PENANAxDfy9E1IlQ
"Zoey did," I answered as I pointed at Zoey walking beside me.643Please respect copyright.PENANAOPmyy5s0aQ
"What's wrong with it?" Zoey asked.643Please respect copyright.PENANAOMWUt8HAaM
"You643Please respect copyright.PENANA35XEfFmePn
put up #BTW," said Lee. "Won't other people apart from your fans find 643Please respect copyright.PENANAqY3VHaCk72
it odd when they find that on the trending list and ask 'what could 643Please respect copyright.PENANApINJLxBxmw
possibly be a by a way thing?' BTW does mean by the way."643Please respect copyright.PENANAKupq88732D
"I643Please respect copyright.PENANAGQTDo40M0K
don't think it's that bad," said Rosé. "I mean we couldn't make a long 643Please respect copyright.PENANAQnkXMF7hOX
hash tag with the group's names so, putting it in abbreviations seemed 643Please respect copyright.PENANAk5DGILaXcK
okay."643Please respect copyright.PENANAc8V8KJiaMe
"I didn't like the BTW thing though," said Mike.643Please respect copyright.PENANA4wevNIy74X
"Well, you should have maybe put WTB or TBW," said Lee. "BTW is already taken."643Please respect copyright.PENANAfFLBAgpdNG
"You643Please respect copyright.PENANACsxXdzuDh0
can eat me later but that was all I could think of to prevent our 643Please respect copyright.PENANAVFnKa2a0Nz
managers from finding out about us quickly," said Zoey. "Not everyone 643Please respect copyright.PENANAYZqe1cDVbB
knew about it before we did our little performance. I bet others still 643Please respect copyright.PENANAcYwhCooqkK
don't know up to now."643Please respect copyright.PENANAwxL9F4xQAy
"BTW643Please respect copyright.PENANAxA6tprHeGw
is now trending number 2 by the way," said Lee. "I don't even know how I643Please respect copyright.PENANAYBAlDL8VmM
realised that BTW was even you three all together. At first I was a 643Please respect copyright.PENANAlaOlD8I8bi
little confused that that was trending until I realised there was 643Please respect copyright.PENANAMgEJeHnwG3
nothing familiar trending on Twitter related to you guys."643Please respect copyright.PENANAfHoEB11JqV
"I643Please respect copyright.PENANABd4NYgM3WX
think Zoey did good," I said. "Even I would have thought of a name for 643Please respect copyright.PENANAwt8vqpNT2y
this little group that wouldn't capture so much attention from the 643Please respect copyright.PENANA32NPVcoTVu
normal human perspective."643Please respect copyright.PENANAc4ZxCV0zEE
"Is Sam calling me smart?" Zoey asked as she smirked. "Most people don't say that about me."643Please respect copyright.PENANAJEOqK60mWs
"I think she is," said TOP.643Please respect copyright.PENANAMmyh9jqkm9
"Yay!" Zoey clapped her hands with glee.643Please respect copyright.PENANAp5rwf75TQi
"You're smart now but you'll be a jellyfish later," jeered Mike.643Please respect copyright.PENANAvO2SrQ7FVw
Zoey643Please respect copyright.PENANAHCmXP0VRm3
stopped clapping and she looked at Mike who was walking in front of 643Please respect copyright.PENANAWRgDEWyPKD
her. Her excited demeanor changed in an instant to killer mode.643Please respect copyright.PENANAFE7tmahcGX
"Did Mike just say jellyfish?" Lee asked. "Where did that come from?"643Please respect copyright.PENANAWziNxxZfmf
"That's another long story," said Jisoo.643Please respect copyright.PENANAGMi5Qxy999
Before643Please respect copyright.PENANAMxcABjcsTw
Lee could say anything else, Zoey let out a war cry and immediately she643Please respect copyright.PENANAC9QGPiutEI
did, Mike took it on cue to run for his life. He ran ahead towards the 643Please respect copyright.PENANAYEeNPgkadp
open food court and Zoey was right behind him.643Please respect copyright.PENANAxEruSsm51C
"I'm going to kill you, Mike!" Zoey called after him.643Please respect copyright.PENANASyzPziwrRz
"You better catch me first!" Mike called back.643Please respect copyright.PENANAOwZETCPWQR
The643Please respect copyright.PENANA5YDqsAasYf
rest of us paused as we looked at Zoey chase Mike down and a few 643Please respect copyright.PENANAMW3RrExpbY
onlookers stopped to us see the sequel before them. I smiled. Those two 643Please respect copyright.PENANAlkf7YNoZDS
would never stop fighting no matter what.643Please respect copyright.PENANA73TlExAUor
"I643Please respect copyright.PENANAvte7PI1Vzw
was about to say, my day is so full of stories," said Lee and she gave a643Please respect copyright.PENANA9G8fk0ADDP
little laugh as she looked towards the food court. "But it looks like 643Please respect copyright.PENANAQuDWalkWmo
it's full of drama too."643Please respect copyright.PENANAbFTywfimuS
"I hope she doesn't sting him," said Jinwoo.643Please respect copyright.PENANAmctCVhr1Bv
"Do643Please respect copyright.PENANA6UTJuYrCoN
you think our managers would ever make BTW a real thing?" Seunghoon 643Please respect copyright.PENANAlkgz81JWOU
asked, his eyes still focused on the two Toxins running around the food 643Please respect copyright.PENANAr976B3G05E
court.643Please respect copyright.PENANAEXqIhsX2tf
"I hope they do," said Jennie. "It would be so much fun."643Please respect copyright.PENANAapwiA8ClSZ
"The fans are already loving it," said Mino. "I don't see why they wouldn't make it a real thing."643Please respect copyright.PENANAqvHy6PyYrI
"I hope so too," said Christine.643Please respect copyright.PENANA1XUu0DNfFY
"Come643Please respect copyright.PENANAv2eIpY2P2J
on, let's not watch these guys run around, I'm starving," said Daniel. 643Please respect copyright.PENANA9RfcUt4KJH
"And we got a movie to watch on the largest screen in the world."643Please respect copyright.PENANAglVnPOkBlG
"Did you just say the largest screen in the world?" Lee asked with a surprised look on her face.643Please respect copyright.PENANAZw87sAEKRH
"Ya, I did." Daniel smiled.643Please respect copyright.PENANA4SlP1PILGH
As643Please respect copyright.PENANAdw372TVEcS
we made our way towards the court, the thing about BTW started spinning643Please respect copyright.PENANAFd5TI0hA5T
in my mind. As much as that seemed like a good idea, the others were 643Please respect copyright.PENANAZx5BZY2gKB
forgetting that despite dealing with two difficult managers, us The 643Please respect copyright.PENANAMlm7YZ3f9M
Toxins weren't going to be here for long and there may be a lot more 643Please respect copyright.PENANAEt1aFD61q3
other issues which I wasn't ready to deal with at the moment.643Please respect copyright.PENANAayB7zfAvzM
I643Please respect copyright.PENANACv0snes0Zn
didn't want to burst everyone's bubble because they were all in a good 643Please respect copyright.PENANAgMmIeAlJu2
mood, so I kept all these worries to myself. Hopefully this time I might643Please respect copyright.PENANAV1g1ZGwZRY
be wrong about my thoughts, except on the part where other issues out 643Please respect copyright.PENANAiErgoHBfcv
of the blue may arise.643Please respect copyright.PENANAx4B0dzxmW1
But the other thing that worried me was that my premonitions in most cases, were never wrong.
