The water felt like a 718Please respect copyright.PENANAhf1H9zjCl4
safe haven and I didn't want to get out. For some reason, it felt so 718Please respect copyright.PENANAe7hbdBLXzh
warm and nice. I didn't want to go above the surface and face all the 718Please respect copyright.PENANAYkb2EqkSpz
troubles out there. But I couldn't stay in water forever. That's 718Please respect copyright.PENANAxxyb1TeGHw
obvious. I didn't want to die in here and sooner or later, I had to 718Please respect copyright.PENANAfKjQHezEwJ
breathe. 718Please respect copyright.PENANAye9AjXKZoq
I pushed myself upwards 718Please respect copyright.PENANAHjxNvujjcp
and my head stuck out of the water's surface. I took in a deep breath of718Please respect copyright.PENANANp6L0BaId7
fresh air and I shook my head to shake the water out of my eyes. I 718Please respect copyright.PENANAhupIegk0qM
opened my eyes fully and as I looked around the pool, I swam to the 718Please respect copyright.PENANAZ0E2cmBK6B
edge.718Please respect copyright.PENANAcmyFnc8qC9
When I finally got myself out, I saw Hyo-rin, Seungri and TOP run towards me. Taeyang and Daesung also appeared.718Please respect copyright.PENANA5R2AJlD500
"Sam, are you okay?" Hyo-rin asked, when she got closer.718Please respect copyright.PENANA802gwCEi7u
"I've never been better," I answered as I looked at myself.718Please respect copyright.PENANAYrm2RlBpFf
I looked ridiculously 718Please respect copyright.PENANAAXviJv6yzQ
wet, that's for sure. My clothes felt so heavy. I pulled out my phone 718Please respect copyright.PENANAUbUgDq9i8S
from the pocket and it was all wet and ruined. I sucked my teeth in 718Please respect copyright.PENANANfBqKmdvmx
irritation. So much for having a cool fancy iPhone only to find it 718Please respect copyright.PENANA9kzaByBPHe
taking a dive with you into the water. I put my phone back in my wet 718Please respect copyright.PENANAFHeTc2gzmY
pocket. My day couldn't get any better than this.718Please respect copyright.PENANAERvhfn082t
I looked around me and 718Please respect copyright.PENANAKhlDPRZsWO
luckily, the little drama I had had with G-Dragon at the top of the 718Please respect copyright.PENANAtdsRsXeExg
rocks, hadn't caught so many people's attention, but only to a few of 718Please respect copyright.PENANA2WQqEJSL1A
those who were in the same pool I had fallen in. That was a relief. The 718Please respect copyright.PENANAHuZs5jb2Ga
last thing I wanted was to look embarrassed in front of the whole world.718Please respect copyright.PENANAt886wkPljI
"You need a towel," said TOP. "You're soaking wet, and you need a change of clothes too."718Please respect copyright.PENANARKaztB7NDj
"No need," I said as I started to remove my wet sneakers and water poured out of them. "We've to go."718Please respect copyright.PENANA7sDDFUvhes
I heard Zoey and the 718Please respect copyright.PENANAaA8O6kfNUH
others' laughter and cheering on the other side of the pool. I looked on718Please respect copyright.PENANA29c3F50PVQ
and I saw the others approach G-Dragon after he climbed down the rocks.718Please respect copyright.PENANAO4G9iQPzVp
They surrounded and cheered for him as though he was a hero. 718Please respect copyright.PENANAfmKMMrC6Bx
"Sam?" I heard Taeyang's718Please respect copyright.PENANAMKpH6aha8T
voice as he held my shoulder. "You don't look okay at all. And you 718Please respect copyright.PENANAvRxht8aIMi
really need a change of clothes or else you're going to catch a cold."718Please respect copyright.PENANABEUJH386uP
"I already told you, I'm718Please respect copyright.PENANANtq0KUJmgU
fine," I said as I slowly brushed off Taeyang's hand from my shoulder. I718Please respect copyright.PENANAgXmQPtnIiu
didn't want to be rude, but I was so not in the mood for consolation 718Please respect copyright.PENANAanxv1AXTtN
from anyone.718Please respect copyright.PENANAgNv5II0kCQ
I made my way towards GD718Please respect copyright.PENANA8fBty5UP4a
and the others, while they were chattering on with excitement over what718Please respect copyright.PENANAPayWrruGBi
had happened. Hyo-rin and the rest followed behind me. As the Toxins 718Please respect copyright.PENANAJ0mESBR1i8
and G-Dragon saw me approach them, Zoey came forward.718Please respect copyright.PENANASzncBJ9fJX
"Oh, man, Sam," said 718Please respect copyright.PENANAc53TkVHAQD
Zoey, with a ridiculous smile on her face. "You should really see 718Please respect copyright.PENANAM6DamrfJYH
yourself. Sorry for all that, but we had to add a little spice to the 718Please respect copyright.PENANAoP6rIeEuU7
game. Hope you didn't mind."718Please respect copyright.PENANAJeKIpF05Sb
"Can we just go back to YG?" I asked, with no hint of emotion on my face. "I've had a long day."718Please respect copyright.PENANA82kPnMNTah
"Go back to YG?" Zoey asked with a surprised look on her face. "I thought we were going back to the hotel."718Please respect copyright.PENANAkrc92rwvcq
"I told you, our 718Please respect copyright.PENANAhSg6Y8NkOE
managers need us back there. And as usual, you never listen to me." I 718Please respect copyright.PENANACF3hsnwK3i
rolled my eyes as I soon remembered something. "Speaking of our 718Please respect copyright.PENANAmOrV3DYleh
managers, Daesung, may I use your phone, please?" I looked over at 718Please respect copyright.PENANAtlmUvDAQEf
Daesung.718Please respect copyright.PENANAkkn1QwplSX
"Ya, sure," said Daesung, as he gave it to me.718Please respect copyright.PENANAq5KHMTSSvA
I dialled Lee's number 718Please respect copyright.PENANAUlYtIngei9
and I placed the phone to my ear. The Toxins and G-Dragon looked on at 718Please respect copyright.PENANAt5oLQOI9Ee
me, clueless. They were obviously wondering why I was making a call. 718Please respect copyright.PENANAH8jrIXL880
They would know soon enough.718Please respect copyright.PENANAYaRfa6FKOf
"Hello?" came Lee's voice at the other end of the line.718Please respect copyright.PENANAH8d73OwZ9p
"Lee, it's Sam," I answered.718Please respect copyright.PENANAAhPUmcCdmn
"Sam, thank goodness, you called. Did you find them?"718Please respect copyright.PENANAPNwsCdjOlC
"Ya, I found them," I said, as I looked on at the culprits in front of me. "Do our managers know anything?"718Please respect copyright.PENANACrTDIiyruj
"No, not yet. But you 718Please respect copyright.PENANA5K8Iaj4u8b
better get back here quick. I can't keep them locked up much longer. And718Please respect copyright.PENANAnv7rcgF8bZ
the press have been waiting for you, so you better hurry."718Please respect copyright.PENANATc58jwcmR8
"We'll be there in thirty minutes."718Please respect copyright.PENANAt658TyfKcr
"Okay, I'll be waiting."718Please respect copyright.PENANANMXZAp9c11
I cut the call and gave Daesung his phone back.718Please respect copyright.PENANAZBc0BcNN1C
"Wait, Sam, what's going on?" Daniel asked. "Why were you talking to Lee? Is something wrong?"718Please respect copyright.PENANAgiVkcFns8w
"Everything is wrong," I answered, trying to keep my cool. "I'll tell you later. We better go now."718Please respect copyright.PENANApTHmchZJLY
"At least tell us what's going on," said Christine. 718Please respect copyright.PENANAMwZBLPoNYM
"It's best we get to YG first," said Seungri. "We're wasting a lot of time here."718Please respect copyright.PENANAk66Ow1Fh2w
"Come on. You heard Seungri, we don't have much time," I said.718Please respect copyright.PENANAEWeAV2N2aI
"But you better change your clothes first," said Zoey. "You know you easily catch a cold. At least get a towel to dry yourself."718Please respect copyright.PENANAOHwsx0yMhF
I shook my head. I was 718Please respect copyright.PENANAPuRgm9u5fV
really on the edge of losing my temper. But I quickly took in a deep 718Please respect copyright.PENANA1DE48btOJA
breath and started to walk away from the pool and the others in my bare 718Please respect copyright.PENANAwEMZPbWSKW
wet feet and carrying my wet sneakers.718Please respect copyright.PENANAjHkNpCBAuc
After walking a few feet718Please respect copyright.PENANA2hP3ShOWkI
away, I looked behind me and the others just stared at me, with 718Please respect copyright.PENANAq7Y6j94of2
surprised and confused looks on their faces. The last thing I wanted was718Please respect copyright.PENANAAHtngmv33l
for them to just stand there because they would end up grabbing other 718Please respect copyright.PENANADPI01G8RD6
people's attention which I was highly trying to avoid.718Please respect copyright.PENANABYutSOJky9
"Aren't you coming or are you going to run off so that I go looking for you again?" I asked.718Please respect copyright.PENANACXMfusCvME
None of them answered as718Please respect copyright.PENANAwhPGqGuIUr
they all started walking towards me and walked past heading for the 718Please respect copyright.PENANAxk92ZU5h6Q
exit. I stayed for a few minutes from where I stood as I watched them 718Please respect copyright.PENANAjrJerkDa4g
go, except for TOP, who came to stand beside me.718Please respect copyright.PENANAbvLrezfUYY
"Don't say a word, please," I said as I turned to look at him.718Please respect copyright.PENANACoGJ6I7ARD
"I wasn't going to say 718Please respect copyright.PENANAqlmGjRBAHX
anything, apparently," said TOP. "I know you're angry and the last thing718Please respect copyright.PENANArSWwiRgvbp
you would want to hear from me is advice."718Please respect copyright.PENANAdhAmtwOitn
I turned to look the other way as I now felt a little guilty. 718Please respect copyright.PENANAH8GGdOBuPw
"Was I harsh on them?" I asked quietly.718Please respect copyright.PENANAcsaKrK4r2i
"To be honest, you did the best you could not to let your anger get the best of you."718Please respect copyright.PENANAZxh68JwGn6
"I'm still upset, though."718Please respect copyright.PENANAexLVT9OFCG
"And that's normal. They will understand. You're human too."718Please respect copyright.PENANAC1tFNiJYpZ
"Thanks, TOP." I said, trying to put up a smile. "Sorry for being harsh on you earlier."718Please respect copyright.PENANADuIFlzt3UH
"It's okay. You guys go on ahead. I'll go get changed and I'll catch up with you later."718Please respect copyright.PENANAU6wTaKt4VJ
I gave TOP an assuring 718Please respect copyright.PENANAUEBwKJWvCn
nod and he gave me a pat on my shoulder and walked away. I was on my way718Please respect copyright.PENANAANcLmBXm67
again and I found myself outside the indoor water park. I saw the 718Please respect copyright.PENANAy1idEw1Rmg
others ahead of me and I kept my distance. I was still soaking wet and I718Please respect copyright.PENANAq4J9krgJ9T
started to shiver. It was now in the afternoon but the sun still didn't718Please respect copyright.PENANA8JgO9FsZiJ
seem to warm me up as I expected it to. It was hot, yes, but I still 718Please respect copyright.PENANALL6Bt9bs6Z
felt cold because of my dripping clothes.718Please respect copyright.PENANAixtYvJ2Lkr
We all found ourselves 718Please respect copyright.PENANAMPrOKDFRXq
back at the back gate of the water park. I found G-Dragon and the Toxins718Please respect copyright.PENANAFBSulGEauR
all settled in G-Dragon's car. Daesung, Seungri, Hyo-rin and Taeyang 718Please respect copyright.PENANASuIqPwUsO5
were waiting for me. 718Please respect copyright.PENANAP9fJHZsfeR
"Hey, Sam, you don't 718Please respect copyright.PENANAkACLvDpA46
mind if I ride along with you, Daesung and Seungri, do you?" Hyo-rin 718Please respect copyright.PENANAyC9aaJDqo0
asked as she approached me to keep the others out of ear shot.718Please respect copyright.PENANAJYucVU5CJm
"I'll ride with Tae, he shouldn't be alone," I said, giving Hyo-rin a small smile. "Don't worry about it."718Please respect copyright.PENANAtTlB86a7TS
Hyo-rin gave me a kind 718Please respect copyright.PENANARTmJePmkyO
smile and I looked on as she settled in with Daesung and Seungri in the 718Please respect copyright.PENANA6bZ22ZNxcO
car. G-Dragon's car took off first, then Daesung's. I continued to watch718Please respect copyright.PENANACYn1G5DcaX
on as the two cars left the premises and all I did was stand in the 718Please respect copyright.PENANA38UG4dSJOu
sun, trying to take in the warmth, but still shivering like a leaf.718Please respect copyright.PENANApiEpQMwaud
I had my eyes closed 718Please respect copyright.PENANAXK7z3cXe0q
when I felt something warm on my shoulders. I opened my eyes and I found718Please respect copyright.PENANA6vkJCxWH5E
Taeyang wrap his warm coat around me.718Please respect copyright.PENANADm4P8mWzF8
"You're really shivering," said Taeyang. "Let's hope you don't get..."718Please respect copyright.PENANAWsw4qJNx7q
Before he could finish his sentence, I sneezed.718Please respect copyright.PENANAaNjpWSQqSS
"....a cold," said Taeyang, rolling his eyes at me. "Nice one, Sam. Now our managers will get pissed for sure."718Please respect copyright.PENANAKJRXpaEQ4L
"Don't worry, it's just a small sneeze," I said as I sniffed. "I'll be fine by tomorrow."718Please respect copyright.PENANAQejPqEWyfU
"Let's hope so. Come on, we better get going."718Please respect copyright.PENANApqsQzVoVfG
Taeyang led me to his 718Please respect copyright.PENANAVZd3LcY1en
car and he helped me open the door to the passenger's seat. We were on 718Please respect copyright.PENANAFQl2zfrlok
the road in no time, and as I sat in the car, I still felt cold that 718Please respect copyright.PENANAPsxgO1Mz18
Taeyang had to turn the heater on.718Please respect copyright.PENANAfRO8KXTUdP
In about thirty minutes,718Please respect copyright.PENANAwcJHPCuDT5
we were back in Seoul and back in the YG premises. I found the others 718Please respect copyright.PENANAceTQqgBEfY
all waiting for us at the front entrance of the building. Taeyang and I 718Please respect copyright.PENANA6aytdlQygD
got out of the car and walked up to them. I led them in, still barefoot 718Please respect copyright.PENANALNZ03K7aIo
and surprisingly at the same time, Collins, Yang Hyun-suk and Lee 718Please respect copyright.PENANAI3xqbaHJj8
appeared out of the elevator.718Please respect copyright.PENANABteXjboNJO
"Where have you guys been?" Collins asked, as they approached us. "And why do you look so wet, Sam?"718Please respect copyright.PENANAtU09GxHYmH
"We went to Caribbean Bay," I answered.718Please respect copyright.PENANAUVKejRePBZ
Lee who stood behind 718Please respect copyright.PENANAGaqDBn9Zer
Collins gave me a funny startled look. She probably thought I was going 718Please respect copyright.PENANAPlyb4xmsAG
to make up some kind of a lie to cover up for the others. But I had 718Please respect copyright.PENANAZmk7O8kAqK
other things in mind.718Please respect copyright.PENANAwxjuG21uLQ
"Caribbean Bay?" Yang Hyun-suk looked surprised. "We had things to sort out here and you went to have fun?"718Please respect copyright.PENANAAd0gCelzNG
Yang Hyun-suk sounded a 718Please respect copyright.PENANA8RBRRgTQA5
little harsh and the rest of us were quiet. I could feel the atmosphere 718Please respect copyright.PENANA47Pv26xqjH
behind me grow tense as no one said a word.718Please respect copyright.PENANA3X8dQXjwb4
"Well, is anyone going to say anything?" Yang Hyun-suk asked.718Please respect copyright.PENANANqkhv2kE0F
"We didn't just go there to have fun," I said, with my head down. "If there's anyone to blame for all this, it's me."718Please respect copyright.PENANAghRc3YPFIQ
There was an awkward 718Please respect copyright.PENANAgwfI5Upy2L
silence as I felt all eyes on me. Their eyes felt like piercing needles,718Please respect copyright.PENANACkX66mepwf
but I had to ignore the feeling and carry on.718Please respect copyright.PENANAzI6OluBqKR
"What do you mean?" Collins asked.718Please respect copyright.PENANAZUPCySNnLI
"Well, I hear the press 718Please respect copyright.PENANAobYE1xj8tk
are here," said Sam. "And I bet they are here over the video of G-Dragon718Please respect copyright.PENANAjnpbJ2CZw0
and I. I'll tell you everything from there."718Please respect copyright.PENANAgNS7r2S0qz
"That won't be 718Please respect copyright.PENANAKqpRYFL5Mx
necessary," said Yang Hyun-suk. "We can do all of that tomorrow or some 718Please respect copyright.PENANAgnr8MNKn6B
other day. You look all beat and I don't think it will be appropriate to718Please respect copyright.PENANAyzoimruS6z
go to the press looking all wet."718Please respect copyright.PENANAsSZeW1aaHU
I breathed out a sigh of718Please respect copyright.PENANAV7PyJ0WSRH
relief. Things were simply going the way I thought they would. I just 718Please respect copyright.PENANAo8pkuNCvMg
hoped that what I was going to do next would work out too.718Please respect copyright.PENANAonJSE4fWO8
"In the meantime, you go718Please respect copyright.PENANAFXQZWFeRiT
to the hotel and get freshened up," said Collins. "We will talk later 718Please respect copyright.PENANAUYJvDGaIdw
on in the evening and you will tell us all about it."718Please respect copyright.PENANAue9vxHIF8M
I nodded my head in 718Please respect copyright.PENANAcl8UgmEqWV
agreement. Well, that was a relief. I seriously needed a change of 718Please respect copyright.PENANAQbqq7ayMly
clothes as I felt myself shiver vigorously.718Please respect copyright.PENANAWmDyrlsmdn
"Come, I'll drive you to the hotel," said Taeyang.718Please respect copyright.PENANAnvQacFxiLW
"Alright," I said 718Please respect copyright.PENANA1dLT8I5Gn4
quietly, as I looked up at Lee. She seemed really frightened. The last 718Please respect copyright.PENANAsJemxxpZsQ
thing she wanted was for all of us to get into trouble and it seems like718Please respect copyright.PENANAISN8TxwQZV
I was only making things worse.718Please respect copyright.PENANAOWfjqGKP29
Before I turned to leave718Please respect copyright.PENANAprvaBiHIjz
with the rest of the group, I gave Lee a wink, assuring her that 718Please respect copyright.PENANAILdWqC7Uw5
everything was going to be alright and that she should trust me on this 718Please respect copyright.PENANA6r7piseCB5
one.718Please respect copyright.PENANAuMFqp0g6MM
***718Please respect copyright.PENANASwtdyxUgdS
I sat on the couch all 718Please respect copyright.PENANAErXhiQfYyi
wrapped up in a blanket, coughing and sniffing like crazy as I continued718Please respect copyright.PENANA0MUJTH1rT7
staring at the TV. I was watching a K-drama series, "Boys over flowers"718Please respect copyright.PENANA0tPb8rer2f
and I was really enjoying it, despite being down with a cold. 718Please respect copyright.PENANAJG9sI9FpPQ
I had a box of paper 718Please respect copyright.PENANAkbujWY8ZUS
tissues right beside me and a plastic containing the ones I had blown my718Please respect copyright.PENANAaRGLUydY6f
nose on on my other side. Disgusting, I know, but hey, it was only a 718Please respect copyright.PENANA6J2wGsdYmh
cold and there was nothing I could do about it.718Please respect copyright.PENANAtZQmyl1WJs
I continued watching the718Please respect copyright.PENANAIiZBxBxF56
series when the waiter came in to bring in my warm chicken soup and 718Please respect copyright.PENANAEFoZ9WOxmP
announced that Taeyang had come to see me.718Please respect copyright.PENANAKEL9MNcgzZ
"Hey, how are you doing?" Taeyang asked after the waiter gave me the soup and left while he came in.718Please respect copyright.PENANAugSIw6h23f
"Never better," I said, 718Please respect copyright.PENANASMpdfISqq6
sounding funny with a blocked nose. "Take a seat, please. Not too close 718Please respect copyright.PENANA0HRl8eg9Tw
to me though, I don't want you to catch my cold."718Please respect copyright.PENANAU2p275PKeP
"I wasn't even going to try," Taeyang took a couch right next to mine, but far away from me as possible.718Please respect copyright.PENANACq2niL4ist
"So, watching k-drama, huh?" Taeyang asked as he looked at the flat screen TV on the wall.718Please respect copyright.PENANAME7hkLQPIo
"Ya, I'm actually enjoying it," I said as I put in a spoonful of chicken soup in my mouth. Mmm, it was so tasty.718Please respect copyright.PENANA06y4tnzHNA
"And the others?" 718Please respect copyright.PENANAXyANmSDmcU
When Taeyang meant the "others," I knew he meant The Toxins. I just rolled my eyes and continued staring at the TV.718Please respect copyright.PENANADB0EY0dMC3
"As usual, they went for practise two hours ago," I answered, not sounding like I cared.718Please respect copyright.PENANAfUhFsUALWg
"Are you still mad at them?" Taeyang asked.718Please respect copyright.PENANALCVbjXW63g
I got the remote and paused the TV. I couldn't catch up with reading the subtitles and Taeyang's question just confused me.718Please respect copyright.PENANAd2bGYrBUuO
"I don't know," I said, staring at my soup.718Please respect copyright.PENANASiJg5rKnva
"You don't know or you are?"718Please respect copyright.PENANAujnKNjysD7
I shrugged my shoulders. To be completely honest, I am still mad, but then again, I felt like I wasn't and that felt confusing.718Please respect copyright.PENANAD4nTu8ZOq2
"I don't know, Tae," I 718Please respect copyright.PENANA7rBE8d5FfV
answered. "I'm still upset with all of them, but another part of me is 718Please respect copyright.PENANApSMCw0NJVE
telling me that I won't stay that way for long and I should just try to 718Please respect copyright.PENANA6KxZvrnNWH
forget all that happened yesterday."718Please respect copyright.PENANAAd8kcqqTlr
"Ya, I understand. They 718Please respect copyright.PENANAKGirEIMCGg
never listened to you and you had to carry on with their game. And in 718Please respect copyright.PENANAncaFomYihn
the end, you take the blame because you knew how angry our managers were718Please respect copyright.PENANAhamrReZTvc
going to get."718Please respect copyright.PENANAl8S5v1ZREe
I looked on at Taeyang 718Please respect copyright.PENANACOdBBzS1UP
as I sniffed. He was right. Yesterday was tough, and coming up with a 718Please respect copyright.PENANA87h96mD9FQ
plan to help the others get out of trouble was even tougher when you 718Please respect copyright.PENANA1U1mJjXpCH
know you weren't only dealing with Collins, but also with Yang Hyun-suk 718Please respect copyright.PENANAN9bEyg0ki4
who was as tough as nails.718Please respect copyright.PENANAgO8nmjup6y
Last night, I took the 718Please respect copyright.PENANAF4BoEamyel
blame and told our two managers that I was the one who decided that we 718Please respect copyright.PENANAUzNtCX5GfC
should all go out and the others had nothing to do with it. I told them 718Please respect copyright.PENANAVwqZ01eJk9
that the others had insisted on working on the song, but I was the one 718Please respect copyright.PENANAQ44W9jvrOt
who objected and made everyone do whatever they wanted. 718Please respect copyright.PENANAPj1tfu0fFb
Apparently, the managers718Please respect copyright.PENANAUfxJbj2iRp
weren't that mad at me at all. If I hadn't lied on their part, they 718Please respect copyright.PENANAbiIRvwjoqo
would've been way mad at the others instead. They were glad I had bought718Please respect copyright.PENANAIA2n6xzSGR
these guys back on time without creating much of a scene on social 718Please respect copyright.PENANAGQAvDRaI2P
media. Luckily, only a few people had taken pictures of us. Most people 718Please respect copyright.PENANArBPpEa6RIv
on social media were even surprised that BigBang and The Toxins were at 718Please respect copyright.PENANAEFjkfxZ4xT
Caribbean Bay. Well, at least my plan worked out. What I was truly 718Please respect copyright.PENANApEBxtmmW2J
avoiding, was grabbing too much attention from our fans, the paparazzi 718Please respect copyright.PENANAfhuV7Giw8q
and the reporters.718Please respect copyright.PENANAPHRatP6VKh
After my confrontation 718Please respect copyright.PENANAbZcHXYXLV4
with our managers, I went straight to bed without talking to anyone and I718Please respect copyright.PENANAT3xAcWqW7L
didn't have supper. One, I was totally beat from all that had happened,718Please respect copyright.PENANAGVHWUlgU5f
and two, I just didn't feel like talking to anyone.718Please respect copyright.PENANAXQQrMjXZKC
"Huh, I guess am still upset," I said, as I took in another spoon of soup in my mouth. "Especially after what GD did to me."718Please respect copyright.PENANA5vLtha4drx
"Ya, what happened was kind of dramatic," said Taeyang.718Please respect copyright.PENANARusr9WYIgd
"You saw that?" I looked surprised. "I thought you came later on when I fell into the pool."718Please respect copyright.PENANAwDcm3YhPIe
"No, Daesung and I arrived when you got to the top."718Please respect copyright.PENANApoGiD0uqix
"Oh," I sniffed and coughed. "Ya, it was kind of dramatic."718Please respect copyright.PENANAZkT8IQ4LY6
"Have you tried talking to GD?"718Please respect copyright.PENANAEFuB3rGMD9
"To be honest, I haven't718Please respect copyright.PENANAbuHqktMRWk
even tried. I don't even want to see nor talk to him. I would probably 718Please respect copyright.PENANAuVdmSqGaRo
slap him in the face if I see him."718Please respect copyright.PENANAKPXOKuRKgl
"I don't doubt that."718Please respect copyright.PENANALldU6Bmv86
"And thank goodness my 718Please respect copyright.PENANAimxVlC62oh
new phone isn't coming in until late in the afternoon. I wouldn't like 718Please respect copyright.PENANATzd243sZpc
anyone calling me trying to tell me how sorry they are. Right now, all I718Please respect copyright.PENANAN3VJowkai0
want to do is watch some TV."718Please respect copyright.PENANAJiW0sl0sPu
I quickly drank my 718Please respect copyright.PENANAwo6IDM05jB
chicken soup from the bowl. And my goodness, the cooks here really knew 718Please respect copyright.PENANA7vKsTh7RXA
how to make lovely soup. I would probably order for it again if I had 718Please respect copyright.PENANAR9lIbDHW2U
to.718Please respect copyright.PENANAdpBVp39CUp
"So, how are you and Hyo-rin?" I asked, after putting the bowl aside.718Please respect copyright.PENANAw9birMSTxI
"Still not talking to each other," Taeyang amswered as he leaned back on the couch and stared at the ceiling.718Please respect copyright.PENANA8lMzvAWn87
"Looks like I'm not the only one not talking to people, aren't I?"718Please respect copyright.PENANA6hsYOhZMCn
"Nope."718Please respect copyright.PENANA6IxXykMO9N
I stared at Taeyang as he continued to look at the ceiling as I thought of what to say or ask next.718Please respect copyright.PENANA7QmdlSpAbA
"What really happened to you two yesterday?" I asked.718Please respect copyright.PENANALQ8cCVAkCh
Taeyang didn't say 718Please respect copyright.PENANAroDtO2IHNi
anything at first. Then he breathed out heavily and said, "what happened718Please respect copyright.PENANA8LMuaU0HdW
to us happens to every other couple, Sam."718Please respect copyright.PENANAiMK7Ge6741
"I know you fought or 718Please respect copyright.PENANAzbInMSDTXN
probably had an argument. I just want to know what it was all about. 718Please respect copyright.PENANAjP50CWJgaa
That's if you're willing to tell me. I won't push you if you don't."718Please respect copyright.PENANAIIKBuVNAFG
I noticed Taeyang smile 718Please respect copyright.PENANA8DCwA8Rtms
while he continued to look upwards. It was probably over what I had 718Please respect copyright.PENANAl1MOXeXN2w
said. I was not one who liked to push people over talking about their 718Please respect copyright.PENANAMGd77t0nuI
problems. I wasn't like Zoey who always got away with such things.718Please respect copyright.PENANAha6ZJ1kzDd
"Aren't you going to say anything?" I asked Taeyang who continued to smile.718Please respect copyright.PENANAXG5fJn4JSO
"I'm just wondering why some things you wish for never come to pass."718Please respect copyright.PENANAemkELNod3j
I raised an eyebrow this time around. Was he diverting the question or was he talking in riddles now?718Please respect copyright.PENANAtv7J05LTtQ
"I thought I was the only one who is sick today," I said rolling eyes.718Please respect copyright.PENANAB910pGUc1o
"Don't mind what I just said," said Taeyang, as he looked at me. "It's nothing."718Please respect copyright.PENANAe5D8OFWz1r
"Mmm, figured. If you don't want to say anything, it's fine by.."718Please respect copyright.PENANABjGRiNww5w
Before I could finish my718Please respect copyright.PENANAPCjyMJ3dvT
sentence, I sneezed. Like, really loud. There was silence at first 718Please respect copyright.PENANAPfI53W54ni
until Taeyang started laughing at me while I blew my nose with a tissue.718Please respect copyright.PENANA37snU3zeVc
"It's not funny, Tae," I said furrowing my eyebrows and threw the used up tissue in the plastic.718Please respect copyright.PENANAQO19oYsmZa
"You sound funny when you sneeze. That's why I laughed," said Taeyang, giving me his eye smile.718Please respect copyright.PENANAtcGICDvyj1
"Well, it's good I made you laugh then. Just like me, you haven't been smiling at all since yesterday."718Please respect copyright.PENANA49v2jC5Yde
"Looks like the two of us really have a lot in common when things don't go our way."718Please respect copyright.PENANAzGZzzEu1Fj
"Yep, cheers to that." 718Please respect copyright.PENANA4ynmYQtiRk
"So, have you thought of any lyrics for the song yet?" Taeyang asked.718Please respect copyright.PENANA464O5Zno5c
I slapped my face. I had completely forgot about the song since I was running up and down the whole of yesterday.718Please respect copyright.PENANA27wUC63Fzd
"I completely forgot," I said, as I sniffed. "Weren't you guys supposed to work on it today?"718Please respect copyright.PENANAxRyKmuo0DC
"We can't work on it without you," said Taeyang. "You and G-Dragon decided that the both of you would work on it together."718Please respect copyright.PENANAmYoO3Nl4UD
"Don't mention his name because I feel like breaking something."718Please respect copyright.PENANAUggiO3tFY5
"Wow, that sounds personal."718Please respect copyright.PENANASQUEgIciXH
"Ya," I nodded my head. "It really is."718Please respect copyright.PENANAnJ0db11Tjd
"Then how are the two of you going to work on the lyrics if you're still angry at him?"718Please respect copyright.PENANAgKa4eniCO3
"I think I've a better 718Please respect copyright.PENANACtIetXfAOq
idea. Let's all just work on the song together. I may be the songwriter 718Please respect copyright.PENANASNX2BCYbnp
in my group, but I always give a chance for others to bring in their 718Please respect copyright.PENANAoXwGnqXB6B
lyrics. It's better that way."718Please respect copyright.PENANAPAHg5iisIZ
"That's not a bad idea. Aren't you going to tell GD about it?"718Please respect copyright.PENANAR079iGrrzh
"Uh, no. Until I'm no longer mad at him, you will have to act as my middle man."718Please respect copyright.PENANAfdDQ0BuTGo
"Me? Your middle man?" Taeyang burst into a fit of laughter. "That's going to be classic."718Please respect copyright.PENANA25QvNVfZmj
"You should be honoured. Most people would die just to be my middle man."718Please respect copyright.PENANAKCjyb84Cwb
"I wouldn't. FYI, I'm a pop star just like you and people would die just the same."718Please respect copyright.PENANAq7yZ1Lcpbt
"Haha, good point."718Please respect copyright.PENANArkdpPqTHhA
Taeyang and I continued 718Please respect copyright.PENANAYy60DyqWa3
to talk for a good thirty minutes and it was so much fun. I was glad he 718Please respect copyright.PENANANgw3vJ4jDT
came to see me because life tends to be boring sometimes when you're 718Please respect copyright.PENANAzBKs86gTJS
alone. Apart from talking about the events that took place yesterday, we718Please respect copyright.PENANAJOvDNQiguM
talked about other fun things concerning our personal lives. Mostly 718Please respect copyright.PENANAZYeSbb8EKL
focusing on the funny things that goes on whenever we were with your 718Please respect copyright.PENANAHc4xzAIVpj
group members. I mostly talked about Zoey, since she always creates 718Please respect copyright.PENANA7kpZZXKZb2
drama in my life, while Taeyang talked about Seungri, who always got 718Please respect copyright.PENANA9Y8fuYTvSL
into trouble since he was the "maknae" (막내) (youngest) in the group.718Please respect copyright.PENANAjzShaf95MV
While the two of us were718Please respect copyright.PENANADwWkViv3v9
laughing after Taeyang finished telling me a funny story about Seungri,718Please respect copyright.PENANAKcE2mSgdzq
I received a phone call from the hotel land line. 718Please respect copyright.PENANAU7Y7GfB1jn
I quickly went over to 718Please respect copyright.PENANANFEvpiFMoi
the phone, trying to calm myself after laughing so much. Luckily, it was718Please respect copyright.PENANAtbMUnmQ478
just the receptionist downstairs, informing me that Seungri and Daesung718Please respect copyright.PENANAYdgmV0dkEM
had come to visit. I told the receptionist to tell them that they could718Please respect copyright.PENANARLSjq3efWq
come up and I put the receiver down.718Please respect copyright.PENANAzdiWpym9sr
"Speaking of the devil," I said as I passed Taeyang, going back to my seat, "he is here with Daesung."718Please respect copyright.PENANAo4XhsC83Ry
"Seungri is here? Well, that's a surprise."718Please respect copyright.PENANAuc5AzEbqkU
"I'm not," I said shrugging my shoulders. "He's obviously here to check up on me, since he calls me his panda."718Please respect copyright.PENANAkWkWqryAcI
"Trust me, you're one of his many pandas," said Taeyang, as he smiled.718Please respect copyright.PENANAHUOROWJzpp
"Shut up, Tae!" I threw a pillow at him and he blocked it as he raised his arm.718Please respect copyright.PENANAd59JlbfXoU
"Eww, that pillow 718Please respect copyright.PENANAvTyp6M5gDk
probably has your germs on it," said Taeyang, as he disgustingly looked 718Please respect copyright.PENANAQINPSKqYi7
at the pillow I had thrown at him on the floor.718Please respect copyright.PENANAtCawBsq4TQ
"You're welcome," I said with a devious smile on my face.718Please respect copyright.PENANAsw82KXHJxJ
A few seconds later, we 718Please respect copyright.PENANAh9RZEuOT19
heard the sound of the elevator then Seungri and Daesung appeared into 718Please respect copyright.PENANACFgKxA3F0Q
the lounge. Seungri was holding a huge stuffed panda and Daesung was 718Please respect copyright.PENANApmWqBdORyi
holding a box of chocolates.718Please respect copyright.PENANAbryEFjnaZ1
"Awww, is that for me?" I asked as I turned on the couch to face them.718Please respect copyright.PENANAx4EyfTJeSc
"Ah, no, the panda is a 718Please respect copyright.PENANA492XCzNnLC
very good friend of mine and just came along to see the famous B.K who 718Please respect copyright.PENANAmaemCdDaGq
is sick," said Seungri. Daesung and Taeyang burst out laughing at the 718Please respect copyright.PENANAdW4hIEeaU5
same time.718Please respect copyright.PENANABUNk3E4LRm
"Very funny, Seungri," I said, as I frowned at him. "Give him to me, I want to hug him."718Please respect copyright.PENANAwYGqFDX7DR
"And give him your cold? No ways," said Seungri, hugging and holding onto the panda.718Please respect copyright.PENANAu2oyr2G9vx
"Do you really want me to come over there and fight for it?"718Please respect copyright.PENANAZdggwbb9cL
"I would give the lady the panda if I were you, Seungri," said Taeyang. "You wouldn't want to see her nasty side."718Please respect copyright.PENANAMQ464GF8Ze
"Hey, I don't have a nasty side," I said, as I looked at Taeyang.718Please respect copyright.PENANAbpHrTrbvRk
"Everybody has one," said Taeyang, shrugging his shoulders.718Please respect copyright.PENANAjO88wNdCMK
"Never mind that," said Daesung, "just give her the panda, Seungri."718Please respect copyright.PENANA5gPbNyFnES
"Really? But he'll be scared without me," said Seungri, still holding onto the panda.718Please respect copyright.PENANA1SdptizbQn
"For goodness sake, I 718Please respect copyright.PENANACX365mLsD0
know the panda is mine," I said. "And besides, we ladies are good with 718Please respect copyright.PENANADjXF5zVxJH
handling cute and cuddly stuff. Mr Panda won't ever feel lonely or 718Please respect copyright.PENANA7rNrw5sWti
scared with me."718Please respect copyright.PENANAUNYC4idPu4
"Ya, I know he won't," said Seungri with a smile as he walked over to me and gave me the panda.718Please respect copyright.PENANAzXz6Vlmtij
I took the panda in my 718Please respect copyright.PENANA5wyg1XeMi1
arms and I hugged and cuddled it as though I was a little girl who just 718Please respect copyright.PENANA2scVn2ABlU
got her doll for the first time. It was so soft and fuzzy that for a 718Please respect copyright.PENANAPLhTL9Ux1Y
moment, it felt like a warm pillow I could sleep on. The new smell of 718Please respect copyright.PENANAPzKu5DW0YO
the panda triggered my nose though, and I sneezed so loud, yet again.718Please respect copyright.PENANA0K6Pjzl2KB
"My goodness, Mr Panda would need a doctor," said Seungri. "You're gonna get him sick."718Please respect copyright.PENANAEdll5Vo5Op
"He's officially mine now," I said as I sniffed. "We're going to be the best of besties."718Please respect copyright.PENANA2E18Hq4rzj
"Whatever, just take good care of him for me, okay?"718Please respect copyright.PENANAxq6iGg9LZ4
"I will," I said with a smile as I cuddled the panda in my arms.718Please respect copyright.PENANAsY3ClmRQNq
"I got you some chocolates," said Daesung, as he handed over the box of chocolates to me. "Every girl's favourite treat."718Please respect copyright.PENANA5Gw7qclH9q
"Aww, thanks Daesung," I718Please respect copyright.PENANAzrDhbigool
said as I smiled at him and I felt myself blush when I remembered what 718Please respect copyright.PENANA4mnEwFFZmM
happened between him and I yesterday at the park. "That's so sweet of 718Please respect copyright.PENANAlrKlWvyLeL
you. See, Seungri, you should be a little bit more like him."718Please respect copyright.PENANAkvy3zCjsZ6
"What did I do?" Seungri asked looking surprised. "I bought you a panda."718Please respect copyright.PENANAuoqHHtQTTW
"Never mind, come take a seat, please," I said. "It's good you two came to see me."718Please respect copyright.PENANAYX4ZmhVQRU
"Are you feeling any better?" Daesung asked as he and Seungri sat on the other couch opposite Taeyang.718Please respect copyright.PENANAR7NjCA6zuS
"Well, I'm not really feeling that sick," I said, as I sniffed. "I'll be fine tomorrow, you'll see."718Please respect copyright.PENANAwelq1fStAc
"I doubt that," Taeyang blurted out.718Please respect copyright.PENANAV7tEOTpCz3
"Ah, put a sock in it, Tae!" I said angrily. "You really know how to make me feel bad."718Please respect copyright.PENANA2hAdPH7uSU
"Ya, I do."718Please respect copyright.PENANALWuQ87gAZi
While the four of us 718Please respect copyright.PENANAKMCRfc78ch
were chatting and Seungri kept on pulling funny faces at me every now 718Please respect copyright.PENANAzAGMm2Fl7O
and then, just to make me laugh, The Toxins arrived. At first I didn't 718Please respect copyright.PENANAwmi98wW1hR
notice since I was laughing so much, until Daesung looked behind me and 718Please respect copyright.PENANArdNo8i0xIi
said:718Please respect copyright.PENANArs4gHOR8UU
"Hey, Zoey." 718Please respect copyright.PENANA42rpvwWqo4
I stopped laughing automatically and I turned to looked behind me. Zoey was standing in the passage with her training bag. 718Please respect copyright.PENANAeSK6GYDU78
"Hey," Zoey replied. "I was wondering why there was laughter when we came in."718Please respect copyright.PENANAKNY7wE6hic
"We came to see how Sam was doing," said Taeyang.718Please respect copyright.PENANAaVVotHBmAE
"It's good you came to 718Please respect copyright.PENANA4dvdMCLqUM
keep her company while we were gone." Zoey turned to look at me, but I 718Please respect copyright.PENANAgqLp1XpYu1
quickly turned away, putting myself back in my usual position on the 718Please respect copyright.PENANAlIKLqddyfw
couch.718Please respect copyright.PENANActeU8kIzJr
"Hey, what's with all the laughter?" came Mike's voice. "Oh, you guys are here, that's great!"718Please respect copyright.PENANAINkXL362lB
"Who's here?" Christine asked, also joining the others. "Hey, guys!"718Please respect copyright.PENANA2Z2z9sTHFT
"Hey, how was practise?" Daesung asked.718Please respect copyright.PENANA2ahBd9kxnU
"Tiring as usual," I heard Daniel reply. 718Please respect copyright.PENANAhBcdLevxJT
"We will just put our stuff away and join you in a second," said Zoey.718Please respect copyright.PENANA8NKspBh5EB
"Ya, please do, it will be so much fun," said Seungri.718Please respect copyright.PENANArbqoEPO1B7
I tugged at my panda's 718Please respect copyright.PENANApZ6lA3tFcU
ear absentmindley as I felt Taeyang's eyes on me. I looked at him and it718Please respect copyright.PENANAyEDx6zJhgR
was obvious he could read my mind. I was still not in a mood to talking718Please respect copyright.PENANAOQh1PL2ekY
to the other Toxins, and I so much as wanted as to leave the room.718Please respect copyright.PENANA4zsVNHLT68
The Toxins came back to 718Please respect copyright.PENANAsPY6kJVq4n
the lounge area. Zoey sat next to me and I moved away from her as I held718Please respect copyright.PENANAQkQBBCCqrV
my panda like it was the only thing that ever mattered to me. Christine718Please respect copyright.PENANAYpFYKSoBET
went to join Seungri and Daesung, while Mike and Daniel joined Taeyang.718Please respect copyright.PENANAgLm81D3wVA
For a moment, no one 718Please respect copyright.PENANAwX62pWykW0
said a word to each other. There was silence. As for me, I kept on 718Please respect copyright.PENANAQEQ4tBwHUL
tugging at the panda's ear still not looking at Zoey.718Please respect copyright.PENANAcbWt6lELIc
"Oh, Sam, you've a panda," said Daniel, breaking the silence.718Please respect copyright.PENANAfg1odKR0Fr
"Ah huh," I replied dully. 718Please respect copyright.PENANAdmoYQPn5EY
"I got it for her," said Seungri, with a smile.718Please respect copyright.PENANAklMChJM2Zx
"Aww, it's so cute," said Christine. "You should get me one just like that someday."718Please respect copyright.PENANAXjeRDtHAG5
I stared up at the 718Please respect copyright.PENANAzs0rAcLm5X
ceiling and then at the panda. I got the box of chocolates that were 718Please respect copyright.PENANACYo0XaKccs
next to me, opened it and put a piece of chocolate in my mouth.718Please respect copyright.PENANAWzTQvDZyJn
"And she also has chocolates too," said Zoey. "I also want some."718Please respect copyright.PENANAvRkjFSQ3kf
When Zoey tried to reach718Please respect copyright.PENANAPKsRgTavNo
out for chocolates, I lifted the box and took it to my other side to 718Please respect copyright.PENANASy6WNiAwiN
prevent her from getting any. I looked at her as I furrowed my eyebrows.718Please respect copyright.PENANAwoPS5vg5iP
"Sorry, I should have asked," said Zoey.718Please respect copyright.PENANAD2DcZtKXcw
"Ya, you should have!" I snapped at her.718Please respect copyright.PENANAWc5f8iIqRc
Zoey looked hurt with 718Please respect copyright.PENANAdlIiAtJnTW
the way I responded to her, but at the moment, it didn't even matter. I 718Please respect copyright.PENANAmVI8oqyMHu
turned to face the other way sucking at the chocolate in my mouth.718Please respect copyright.PENANAQTCbTdN7Ow
"Are you still mad at us?" Zoey asked.718Please respect copyright.PENANAvhWOPWCxB1
I didn't answer as I put718Please respect copyright.PENANAIZIC2y82Vj
another piece of chocolate in mouth. My silence was an obvious answer. I718Please respect copyright.PENANAllixRRjotP
was still mad, especially at Zoey.718Please respect copyright.PENANAGr1qKLfZoD
"I know it's a little 718Please respect copyright.PENANAa1XGbt1paT
late to say this," started Zoey. "But we're really sorry for what 718Please respect copyright.PENANAQFWUDlAgqU
happened yesterday. Yes, we didn't listen to you as always and we're 718Please respect copyright.PENANAyOuT7cOA7b
sorry for that too. You even took the blame for us. And I know it 718Please respect copyright.PENANAMmGBB3nkBB
doesn't look like we appreciate what you do for us, but we really do. 718Please respect copyright.PENANATao4eekayS
You've saved our necks a number of times before from Collins, but this 718Please respect copyright.PENANAeCgqynUPFN
time you had to deal with Yang Hyun-suk too."718Please respect copyright.PENANASgJpRJOvNW
I stared at the ceiling as I sucked at the chocolate in my mouth as though I wasn't listening.718Please respect copyright.PENANAv25UtDH6oh
"I don't like it when 718Please respect copyright.PENANAm1duOf40jM
you're not talking to me," Zoey continued. "And last night when you 718Please respect copyright.PENANAy7M2X3LNlX
didn't say a word, I knew you were going to give us the silent 718Please respect copyright.PENANAxExcSQCIjG
treatment. You know you're my best friend and my only source of 718Please respect copyright.PENANAHTM7OHr4Rg
happiness everyday. You know I'm not myself without you. I'm really 718Please respect copyright.PENANA78GxN9d9hS
sorry, Sam."718Please respect copyright.PENANAQnvfH7INWv
"We're all sorry, Sam," said Daniel. "I know you're hurt real bad because of our silly actions yesterday."718Please respect copyright.PENANAYiLmiiF1DV
"I'm sorry too," said 718Please respect copyright.PENANAYCOinaEIdQ
Mike. "I should have acted like the responsible one, but we all know 718Please respect copyright.PENANA0HOUcziF3r
that's not the case. You really saved us yesterday and all we want is 718Please respect copyright.PENANAhV2kbP9b8W
for you to talk to us again."718Please respect copyright.PENANA0zwl75HFlV
"I'm also sorry, Sam," 718Please respect copyright.PENANAIDVX3M5of6
said Christine. "We might say 'we won't do it again,' but we keep on 718Please respect copyright.PENANARItmtYiIKU
doing the same thing. We can't do anything without you. You're our 718Please respect copyright.PENANA2YfgFZLR5A
leader."718Please respect copyright.PENANAdYyC0Jj2mR
I still didn't say a 718Please respect copyright.PENANAZD9hyWS8G6
word to them as I continued to stare upwards. I knew it would come to 718Please respect copyright.PENANA6gn2abV2uC
this, them saying that they were sorry. My hatred for them wasn't going 718Please respect copyright.PENANAANEmOIQyR2
to last forever and I knew that very well. They were family and I loved 718Please respect copyright.PENANAkJdWITbDrs
them despite the awful things they put me through.718Please respect copyright.PENANAU6k96Igeld
"Aren't you going to say something, Sam?" Taeyang asked. 718Please respect copyright.PENANAbDu85IIFuW
"And what should I say?" I asked. "They know completely well that I can't stay mad at them forever, so...."718Please respect copyright.PENANAa1xgMlewy9
"Wait, you're not mad any more?" Zoey asked, with a little hint of excitement in her voice.718Please respect copyright.PENANAyzPG52fvXt
I sighed deeply and I turned to face Zoey. And I each gave the other Toxins a look as well.718Please respect copyright.PENANA6Yh9lT8aNG
"I'm mad and pretty much718Please respect copyright.PENANA1rdArVZUUA
angry with all of you," I said. "But it's obvious I can never stay mad 718Please respect copyright.PENANAhtQCQIDT50
at you forever. So, yes, I forgive you."718Please respect copyright.PENANAXYY7UtRL3v
"Seriously, you mean it?" Daniel asked.718Please respect copyright.PENANAACDyjt9Jt5
I sniffed and said, "ya, I mean it."718Please respect copyright.PENANAD20hI3cXxt
"Aww, I love you, Sam!" Zoey exclaimed as she tried to come close to hug me.718Please respect copyright.PENANAYleS1cttK6
"Whoa! Back up!" I said 718Please respect copyright.PENANACarNmpdb2b
with my hands raised to stop her from getting any closer to me. "I've a 718Please respect copyright.PENANAzjTNheOODt
cold. Just because I forgive you, doesn't mean you can hug me."718Please respect copyright.PENANAQmXfx58k4n
"Ah, you! Always acting 718Please respect copyright.PENANAmZAa6lxMcf
like you don't want a hug. Come here!" Zoey wrapped her arms around me 718Please respect copyright.PENANASN0xw3Sjgr
and hugged me. "Your cold isn't that contagious and I don't care if I 718Please respect copyright.PENANALrFRXjCXRg
catch it anyway."718Please respect copyright.PENANABQrq4tKJL1
Christine, Daniel and 718Please respect copyright.PENANAD3VQUioYRg
Mike also came over and we were all hugging each other on the couch. 718Please respect copyright.PENANAJQ2TzyBHcE
Even the panda got caught up in the hug. It was kind of nice and I 718Please respect copyright.PENANAvqRYR8tcS4
smiled. I completely wasn't mad at them any more, that's for certain.718Please respect copyright.PENANABwLLbbTN6N
"Aww, let me take a pic of this beautiful moment," said Deasung as he pulled out his phone and took a photo.718Please respect copyright.PENANARuhRvw98jR
"I'm glad you guys finally resolved things ," said Taeyang.718Please respect copyright.PENANAQTIxNRJs65
"Ya, I'm glad we did," I said, as I felt my nose twitch. "Can you guys please stop hugging me, I'm about to...."718Please respect copyright.PENANAwR1gwuWyCx
I sneezed and the other Toxins quickly withdrew their arms around me and looked on as though I was contagious.718Please respect copyright.PENANAlcYTuHWofw
"Excuse me," I said as I got a tissue and blew my nose. "I just can't help myself."718Please respect copyright.PENANAQ9eJ37MkXP
"Don't worry, you won't 718Please respect copyright.PENANAVcviE9fkz3
help yourself laughing once you see this pic," said Daesung, as he 718Please respect copyright.PENANAxecF8AIlya
looked at his phone with a smile on his face.718Please respect copyright.PENANArKI6kwZsAO
"Please don't tell me you captured me sneezing," I rolled my eyes when I obviously knew the answer.718Please respect copyright.PENANACoTRdvMnjb
"Ya, he did," said Seungri, with a smirk on his face.718Please respect copyright.PENANATLekx2AnfG
"Never mind. It's almost lunch time and I'm starving," I said. "What can we order for lunch?"718Please respect copyright.PENANAXJUAwojHEu
"I'm glad you asked," said Zoey. "You just sit back and relax, my hungry kitty. We already have lunch covered."718Please respect copyright.PENANAAAiw0z3ZxJ
"What do you mean?" I asked, looking at Zoey with an eyebrow raised.718Please respect copyright.PENANA1jRosnaC3s
"We thought of having a special lunch just for you since you were so mad at us," said Daniel. 718Please respect copyright.PENANAHcwUvRxGrY
"Well, that's interesting," said Taeyang. "Weren't you going to invite us as well?"718Please respect copyright.PENANARtb0uqwS3U
"Well, ya, but surprisingly you brought yourselves here," said Zoey. "We were about to call you as soon as we arrived."718Please respect copyright.PENANAgy1jsEqahw
"We already called the others so, no need," said Mike.718Please respect copyright.PENANAus9Yx3aff9
At that moment, I had 718Please respect copyright.PENANAOMUQ6br99C
put in another piece of chocolate in my mouth and I almost choked on it.718Please respect copyright.PENANA8lyQpasmtV
Mike who was the closet to me patted my back.718Please respect copyright.PENANA6j6SVQfgL9
"Hey, are you okay?" he asked.718Please respect copyright.PENANArMd0PrX1mb
"I'm fine, I guess," I said, as I held my throat.718Please respect copyright.PENANARYi1o1qDn1
"This is what happens when you don't share chocolates," said Zoey. "Here, I'll help you."718Please respect copyright.PENANA5tEgnfs1Uo
Zoey got the box of 718Please respect copyright.PENANA9W0F9xZOlK
chocolates and Christine went to sit next to Zoey to eat them while I 718Please respect copyright.PENANAyG4mWUFXaq
continued rubbing my throat, deep in thought.718Please respect copyright.PENANAEAXWV9DQAl
"Can you excuse me for a second?" I asked as I got up from the couch with my panda and left the room.718Please respect copyright.PENANAvRtGg5zouj
I was in the passage as I718Please respect copyright.PENANAV7PgA4NZAA
leaned on the wall, close to the door of the room Zoey and I were 718Please respect copyright.PENANAnCXVithc9Y
sleeping in. I held the panda in my arms and hugged it tightly. I sighed718Please respect copyright.PENANAeOJgNfJpUX
in what felt like sadness.718Please respect copyright.PENANApU5dLnyra4
"You aren't okay, again, aren't you?" came Taeyang's voice behind me.718Please respect copyright.PENANA9u0vWwEPwK
I sniffed and without facing him said, "you already know. I don't have to say anything."718Please respect copyright.PENANAfAAFNjWQRk
I heard his footsteps 718Please respect copyright.PENANAz4Um77pR64
and I knew he was coming closer. He also leaned his back against the 718Please respect copyright.PENANAMlUroNPFmj
wall as he stood right next to me and I heard him sigh.718Please respect copyright.PENANAtFtZsFMX3b
"Are you really going to stay mad at GD for long?" he asked.718Please respect copyright.PENANAWLNldPYR7n
"And are you going to do the same with Hyo-rin?" I also asked.718Please respect copyright.PENANA1sq37csYXo
"Are we really do this right now?"718Please respect copyright.PENANAnzSjxH0Aee
"Do you want us to continue making each other feel bad about yourselves?" 718Please respect copyright.PENANARt7CVDsDE5
Taeyang chuckled silently and I smiled, still not looking at him.718Please respect copyright.PENANAXLnCKoYYmM
"This isn't working, is it?" Taeyang asked.718Please respect copyright.PENANAEpnyQcJud8
"Nope." 718Please respect copyright.PENANANeocjL4od9
I heard Taeyang take in another deep breath and said, "I really admire you, Sam."718Please respect copyright.PENANAs0Ev9HVojk
My eyes almost felt like718Please respect copyright.PENANAZ0TzkriBtG
they would pop out of their sockets. He admired me? Like how? Admiring 718Please respect copyright.PENANAWcGBs7JWsR
meant a lot of things. And right now I felt really confused.718Please respect copyright.PENANAZbRrDIQIfB
I turned to look at him 718Please respect copyright.PENANAQyKFCA2ykP
and I found him staring at me. He gave me a simple smile and I didn't 718Please respect copyright.PENANAfPTSNi131u
know where to begin to ask what he truly meant.718Please respect copyright.PENANAhfVHgf4BD9
"I....uh, what do you, uh.... mean when you said you admired me?" I asked as I stammered.718Please respect copyright.PENANAZylTc7UlGS
"That you're surrounded 718Please respect copyright.PENANAtW5vuwjrwM
by such amazing people in your life that you're even able to forgive 718Please respect copyright.PENANAsfigKKjb5K
them despite you getting hurt by them," he answered. "I admire that 718Please respect copyright.PENANAZ7o5Xu265Q
you've such a good heart. You don't seem to hold grudges for long."718Please respect copyright.PENANAmR1gnL5Aks
"A good heart? Really? I don't think so. If it's anyone with a good heart it's you, Tae, not me." 718Please respect copyright.PENANAMUKGyLzV1n
"Then if you can see that in me, I can also see that in you."718Please respect copyright.PENANAfL0aXXyWPO
I sighed and I gave Taeyang a stern eye. "So what's your point?"718Please respect copyright.PENANAZ0tU2LWQTv
"That you also shouldn't stay mad at GD."718Please respect copyright.PENANAELRW3v55JW
"Tae, you don't know how I felt yesterday when he betrayed me and left me dangling on the cliff for my life."718Please respect copyright.PENANAitcVi8vK1w
Taeyang raised an eyebrow at me. "You felt betrayed?"718Please respect copyright.PENANAlGyB6kZwTp
"Well, ya." I shrugged my shoulders. "What GD did to me wasn't.....It was so not....."718Please respect copyright.PENANAd5Sbxezy83
Apparently, I couldn't 718Please respect copyright.PENANAKdFpHtyxdh
seem to find the right words. I didn't even realise how I felt when I 718Please respect copyright.PENANAh76UnVkW3x
talked about this to Taeyang. On one hand I was confused and on the 718Please respect copyright.PENANAIloZYL0H54
other, I was still mad I could break something. I was even squeezing my 718Please respect copyright.PENANAMdGqErYGMe
panda tightly. If it were a live animal, I would have choked it to 718Please respect copyright.PENANAnzSUagHIKY
death.718Please respect copyright.PENANAclLwHSwBwo
Taeyang still looked at me with his eyebrow raised and I didn't like that he wasn't saying anything.718Please respect copyright.PENANAyy0ajl7mHZ
"Aren't you going to say anything, Tae?" I asked, sounding frustrated. "Don't look at me like that."718Please respect copyright.PENANA1T12byyusK
Taeyang folded his arms 718Please respect copyright.PENANAz0IERAVvr3
and said, "if you really want me to say something, I'll say what I think718Please respect copyright.PENANArtmDuAPaXt
and what I'm seeing right now. You aren't mad at GD. You're just hurt."718Please respect copyright.PENANANMOVGSxBEq
"Hurt? I don't get it." I felt even more confused.718Please respect copyright.PENANAE8A7AGB7gz
"You're may think you're718Please respect copyright.PENANAN09ZeAiG2a
upset and angry, when actually you're hurt. You just said you felt 718Please respect copyright.PENANAm6Ib9YLQkm
betrayed with what GD did to you. Feeling betrayed isn't getting angry, 718Please respect copyright.PENANA9zYFSmDJe8
but feeling hurt."718Please respect copyright.PENANA0qHBS7iZ9K
I slowly took in what Taeyang said and I couldn't help but feel he was right on this one.718Please respect copyright.PENANAlXUEz329Up
"But I wouldn't feel 718Please respect copyright.PENANAkti9i8B76t
hurt or betrayed if I...." I was soon hit with the most shocking 718Please respect copyright.PENANAdFzrtgStLI
revelation of my life and I stopped myself in mid sentence as I looked 718Please respect copyright.PENANAgrxIMXcLek
at Taeyang.718Please respect copyright.PENANAEogivT1DBj
Taeyang gave me that 718Please respect copyright.PENANAh4sPKFMJ1r
look that he already knew what I was about to say. And he probably had 718Please respect copyright.PENANACphyo6nuO8
figured it out a whole lot sooner than I did. I shook my head at him, 718Please respect copyright.PENANAAA14de9Hvf
while in return, he nodded.718Please respect copyright.PENANAgDOnmaTC43
"No, freaking way," I said, trying not to raise my voice. 718Please respect copyright.PENANAeiEUTRCyPr
"Ya," said Taeyang. "Believe it or not, it seems like you like him."718Please respect copyright.PENANAGNTsABC8XU
I didn't say a word as I718Please respect copyright.PENANAYBotrMfcJD
went back to leaning my back against the wall. I buried my chin into my718Please respect copyright.PENANAzJhBzb6Gex
panda's soft head not really believing what just happened. The thought 718Please respect copyright.PENANAZr1nTnCsBc
of liking GD clouded my mind. Not only that. What happened between 718Please respect copyright.PENANALEOy6MWCYi
Daesung and I at the park really made things complicated.718Please respect copyright.PENANAqw17Rb7CNS
"I guess you're right," I muttered to Taeyang. "But I can't tell for sure if I really like him or not."718Please respect copyright.PENANA0lomU8NF9r
"Maybe all you need is a little time to figure it out," said Taeyang. "Right now, you're just confused."718Please respect copyright.PENANAW59tLznSoR
"I'm 'really' confused. You've no idea."718Please respect copyright.PENANAGLDK9p07n9
"Did something else happen that you aren't telling me?"718Please respect copyright.PENANAinnRWZv9Mb
If there was ever a way I718Please respect copyright.PENANA5dnjM1eaEv
would personally give Taeyang an award for, was for mind reading. It's 718Please respect copyright.PENANA3uyLSskaMd
like he knew what was going on inside my head. I wondered if I should 718Please respect copyright.PENANAAVIte8m5Yy
tell him about Daesung too, but I was saved my the bell.718Please respect copyright.PENANAY5BuJindky
"Hey, you two, let's go, lunch is ready downstairs," said Zoey appearing in the passage. 718Please respect copyright.PENANAd3QiB4PFgp
"Okay, let me put my panda away," I said as I quickly disappeared into the room and I left it on my bed. 718Please respect copyright.PENANAKvWiaR8nZ0
When I came out, I still found Taeyang where I had left him and the two of us went to join the others entering the elevator.718Please respect copyright.PENANAPUe5kdTkWr
"You two are really close today. Are you up to something?" Zoey asked Taeyang and I as we got into the elevator.718Please respect copyright.PENANAhYWt1aMhcl
"No, why do you ask?" I asked.718Please respect copyright.PENANADPTgcFtfSx
"Well, I'm just asking,"718Please respect copyright.PENANAvAxD41EpXA
said Zoey, as she playfully scratched the back of her head. "Who knows,718Please respect copyright.PENANArK79DgxRtj
Taeyang might steal you away from me and become your new best friend."718Please respect copyright.PENANA8O5x0rW4XE
"Sounds like you're jealous," said Seungri, with a mocking smile on his face.718Please respect copyright.PENANAvF3PA5E6m6
"No, I'm not!" Zoey snapped.718Please respect copyright.PENANApIL9aX3ras
"Hilarious," muttered Taeyang, as he smiled.718Please respect copyright.PENANA49xaXIAKN3
"If I knew that's what you were thinking about, I wouldn't have asked," I said, as I rolled my eyes.718Please respect copyright.PENANAxL2xIZ6GWy
I pressed the button 718Please respect copyright.PENANAdGedGjdNdJ
leading us to the ground floor and the doors to the elevator closed 718Please respect copyright.PENANAxuVlXm4Zi4
before us. In a matter of seconds, we found ourselves on the ground 718Please respect copyright.PENANAQupEEyavxK
floor and we all walked out of the elevator.718Please respect copyright.PENANAMjeseloqyg
We went to the main 718Please respect copyright.PENANAEVpQh4yQun
hotel dinning room and a waiter lead us to the table reserved for us for718Please respect copyright.PENANAXGaM3H59vQ
lunch. It was a huge round table in the VIP section. There were ten 718Please respect copyright.PENANA2ON6gwgykH
seats around the table, obviously for all BigBang and Toxins members.718Please respect copyright.PENANAIm075Fli91
"Why didn't you invite, our managers and Lee?" I asked Zoey as we approached the table.718Please respect copyright.PENANATKe5Xmb94k
"Are you serious? Those guys are busy and you wanted me to invite them?" Zoey asked. 718Please respect copyright.PENANAFv538xZN3b
"To be honest, we just 718Please respect copyright.PENANABGDIU5Z8Sw
wanted to avoid them asking us questions about yesterday," said Daniel. 718Please respect copyright.PENANAkGcCdmdKNq
"We wanted it to be strictly Toxins and BigBang."718Please respect copyright.PENANA7ghm3dBQWu
"Was that so hard to say?" I asked Zoey upon Daniel's answer.718Please respect copyright.PENANAVbM8bo1joj
"Maybe. Let's forget about it and sit, shall we?" Zoey suggested and she walked ahead of us, reaching the table first.718Please respect copyright.PENANAhpvp2Bm3E1
We all got to the table and before I could pull out my chair, Taeyang pulled the chair out for me and I glady sat.718Please respect copyright.PENANAQ28iiEQm3d
"Thanks, Tae," I said as I smiled up at him.718Please respect copyright.PENANAgIyBMKlygk
"You're welcome," said Taeyang as he sat next to me and Daesung sat on my other side.718Please respect copyright.PENANA0jCNumRcKm
"Okay, weird, you two are getting real close," said Zoey as she sat across the table looking directly at Taeyang and me.718Please respect copyright.PENANADWlkhDkSQg
"Nah, I don't think so,"718Please respect copyright.PENANAk200KB1n5S
said Christine. "Taeyang is just so sweet. I wish I was the sick one so718Please respect copyright.PENANASZoG4frVoC
he would be treating me like that."718Please respect copyright.PENANAZWbR0nKYnN
"Mmm, I don't think so,"718Please respect copyright.PENANAa2NcRXM3rn
said Zoey, shaking her head. "Did something happen between the two of 718Please respect copyright.PENANA15mDH9ickT
you yesterday that I'm not aware of?"718Please respect copyright.PENANA85xqEveZtm
"My goodness," I rolled my eyes and sniffed. "Stop making a drama out of everything, Zoey."718Please respect copyright.PENANAaTt83NvU3T
"I'm not," said Zoey, shrugging her shoulders.718Please respect copyright.PENANAkbfDpgIjbU
"Then, stop trying to make one."718Please respect copyright.PENANA4tF6tttJ3a
"Before you two decide to tear each other apart," said Seungri. "Can we please have our food now? I'm starving."718Please respect copyright.PENANAJycnqXzXDj
"Ya, me too," said Mike.718Please respect copyright.PENANAlhZt76Kbu2
"Wait, we've to wait for TOP and GD to get here first," said Zoey.718Please respect copyright.PENANAWhPqNnEXu8
"Seriously?" Daniel asked. "Do we really have to wait?"718Please respect copyright.PENANAIdhl9aC6DI
"We can't really be so sure how long they're going to take to get here," said Daesung.718Please respect copyright.PENANAqbW7ESThJ6
"They will be here any moment now," said Zoey as she stared at her fancy white wrist watch. "Trust me."718Please respect copyright.PENANATxix3dAZWk
"Really? Can we just get on with it?" Mike asked.718Please respect copyright.PENANAZORbKYtwDk
"We haven't even passed a minute, and you're complaining already?" Daesung asked almost in a fit of laughter.718Please respect copyright.PENANAPS9R4LZJIs
"Ah, here they come," said Zoey as she looked behind me. "Told you they will be here."718Please respect copyright.PENANAi9MLevULKC
I didn't even dare try 718Please respect copyright.PENANAZRbBf3EYcj
to look behind me as I twirled a strand of my hair with my fingers as I 718Please respect copyright.PENANAyhvUXTZrQF
coughed. Zoey got up from her seat and ran over to G-Dragon and TOP.718Please respect copyright.PENANAydxwt6Om3L
"I'm so glad you're here," said Zoey. 718Please respect copyright.PENANAnyOcz4TjQU
"I'm glad you invited us," came TOP's voice. "How is our patient doing?"718Please respect copyright.PENANAga3qU5ZYXT
"Why don't you see for yourself?" Zoey suggested.718Please respect copyright.PENANAzHD9bXCpJA
I heard footsteps coming718Please respect copyright.PENANAuxfyZWfu4P
towards the table and I couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable 718Please respect copyright.PENANAeKcfjBy5Qb
as I moved in my seat. Taeyang must have noticed because he turned to 718Please respect copyright.PENANASX6ntoNv6r
look at me.718Please respect copyright.PENANAFMaLH95nUd
"Are you okay?" he whispered.718Please respect copyright.PENANAr8VSbBWNIp
"I'm trying to," I whispered back.718Please respect copyright.PENANAUAwJ7nqqYo
I soon felt strong hands718Please respect copyright.PENANAHPDn7fum7g
grip my shoulders and I was startled. For a moment, I thought it was GD718Please respect copyright.PENANApUJ9je7EA3
until I took a whiff of TOP's musky cologne.718Please respect copyright.PENANAxZloxiokqW
"Hi, Sam," said TOP, as he bent over to give me a peck on the cheek. "How are you doing?"718Please respect copyright.PENANArQlzo2EKA9
"I'm a whole lot better,718Please respect copyright.PENANAqbDIwtRcKn
thanks," I replied, as I felt myself blush and the spot where TOP 718Please respect copyright.PENANAuEk4E0djGy
pecked me burn up. "It's nothing serious." I sniffed.718Please respect copyright.PENANAGwo8JRrOwx
"Glad to hear that."718Please respect copyright.PENANAqqJOoCuDie
When TOP let go of my shoulders and walked away to take his seat next to Mike, I heard G-Dragon's voice behind me.718Please respect copyright.PENANALGl2yAwNur
"I'm glad you're okay, Sam. I thought of the worst when you got sick."718Please respect copyright.PENANAHsHCOiWwaB
I was planning not to 718Please respect copyright.PENANA2vMXeetyqJ
turn and look at G-Dragon, but I did anyway. When I looked at him, he 718Please respect copyright.PENANACSk7JUmLSD
was staring at me with those captivating eyes of his. I could tell that 718Please respect copyright.PENANARVW5QtTJAQ
he was sorry for what he did to me yesterday. I was wondering whether to718Please respect copyright.PENANAFGvQu9dHVN
jump at him and tear him apart, or just let the problem go like water 718Please respect copyright.PENANAd6ux285Nrr
under the bridge.718Please respect copyright.PENANATJ3iELp1ep
I smiled, at least that was an effort, and said, "I'm fine, GD, my cold isn't serious neither is it contagious."718Please respect copyright.PENANAheYHCkAdhU
"Wait, you're not mad at me anymore?" he asked.718Please respect copyright.PENANAdq3q9LJaJU
I tried not to frown. "Let's not talk about that. I'm starved."718Please respect copyright.PENANA1IfsZX3QSt
"Okay, then," said Zoey, as she wrapped her arm around G-Dragon's elbow. "Let's sit and have lunch."718Please respect copyright.PENANAb9ZGyLO63w
Zoey and G-Dragon sat down next to each other as they were conversating about something.718Please respect copyright.PENANASkqf6mmua3
"You know what? At least I tried not to sound mad at him," I said to Taeyang.718Please respect copyright.PENANAgQkxun6lji
"Will you try to keep that up for long?" Taeyang asked.718Please respect copyright.PENANAUAmkHvniuj
"If I can manage to have lunch without any mishaps, then I know things will be okay."718Please respect copyright.PENANAfkzQcQKweQ
The waiters soon came 718Please respect copyright.PENANAbzqixtQd2H
and laid our lunch on the table. We first had lovely soup for a starter.718Please respect copyright.PENANAarchAO8hQ7
And since Zoey mentioned earlier that it was a special lunch 718Please respect copyright.PENANAALMveEq6Yd
specifically for me, we were all served my favourite dish as the main 718Please respect copyright.PENANA4YQ3nQ5ZQb
meal, Italian chicken terazzini.718Please respect copyright.PENANAIxEJAXKjdG
For a moment, I felt 718Please respect copyright.PENANAcezn5p13p8
more at home than ever before. A feeling I hadn't felt in a long time. 718Please respect copyright.PENANAg3lUJ2zAm3
Zoey really knew how to make me feel more pleased with her in order for 718Please respect copyright.PENANAr41ZjsAylr
me to forget that I was ever mad.718Please respect copyright.PENANAiYmNBMxvKp
"Mmm, this is so 718Please respect copyright.PENANAoAOFdxx5dX
delicious," said Mike, a few minutes in during the meal. "Now I see why 718Please respect copyright.PENANALVrx9cT7Wr
you like this dish, Sam. It's so awesome."718Please respect copyright.PENANANV92NdOwfM
"I agree," said Seungri. "And the chefs here really know how to make a good meal."718Please respect copyright.PENANAcRjjYEQfqf
"We wouldn't have had this if it wasn't for Zoey," I said, as I looked at her. "Thanks, by the way."718Please respect copyright.PENANAIP7gXe9UGG
"Anything for you, Sam,"718Please respect copyright.PENANAWqseWHgNnw
said Zoey with a huge grin on her face. "But to be honest, this whole 718Please respect copyright.PENANAmZUQc2zwQ2
lunch thing, wasn't really my idea."718Please respect copyright.PENANAvyswyC3ugy
"Oh? Then whose was it then?" Daesung asked.718Please respect copyright.PENANAVH1apUBt3s
"Da, GD. Who else?" Zoey replied as she playfully nudged G-Dragon on his arm with her elbow.718Please respect copyright.PENANAUqkzIfLEv4
I had just taken in some718Please respect copyright.PENANA6vu4ZtRdHc
food into my mouth and I almost choked on it, but I tried not to make 718Please respect copyright.PENANALIKewjY5Ey
it look obvious. I slowly put my spoon and fork on the plate as I slowly718Please respect copyright.PENANAExVN5tMTie
tried to chew my food, but at the same time, processing what Zoey had 718Please respect copyright.PENANAulAOCNurqJ
just said.718Please respect copyright.PENANAOJ7Q9sVr6P
"This was all G-Dragon's idea?" I asked.718Please respect copyright.PENANAnDhBdPvQDV
"Well, ya," Christine 718Please respect copyright.PENANAPwNNDWqC0k
replied. "You were so mad that you weren't talking to us, when we met 718Please respect copyright.PENANAY64NmOj6fb
G-Dragon at YG this morning, he suggested the idea of throwing you a 718Please respect copyright.PENANA2mBc9NtG0g
special lunch to lighten your mood."718Please respect copyright.PENANAOjiz7gYyl6
At that moment, I didn't know if all this lightened my mood or just darkened it even more.718Please respect copyright.PENANA8UFp8LyjIm
"Thanks for the lunch, 718Please respect copyright.PENANAQxZgvY90qF
GD," I said with a smile, which felt rather painful on my face. "It's so718Please respect copyright.PENANAObAyh2yFHz
sweet of you to have come up with this."718Please respect copyright.PENANAAysfPxTJIf
"You're welcome," said G-Dragon as he winked at me.718Please respect copyright.PENANA09cgSM3Ztm
I almost felt like 718Please respect copyright.PENANAuOU3eskke9
jumping at him from my seat to poke his eyes out with a fork, but I was 718Please respect copyright.PENANA0hQGFR8WkA
surprised with myself when I didn't move a muscle and continued to stare718Please respect copyright.PENANAb5nHBJFHQ2
at him with a fake smile on my face. Where was all this anger coming 718Please respect copyright.PENANAy5piNvwdE8
from? And why was it that with every minute that passed, my anger kept 718Please respect copyright.PENANAUQvrLeX2oz
turning into rage?718Please respect copyright.PENANA3iCuaM6hhR
Oh, goodness. I needed 718Please respect copyright.PENANARAvK1PiBMh
help, that's for sure. I wasn't supposed to be mad at G-Dragon up to 718Please respect copyright.PENANAD5Tgekq2iB
this point. But why did I still feel angry and hurt? 718Please respect copyright.PENANA1XEb7N2hHn
I tried to push aside 718Please respect copyright.PENANAQHqlcgCO9e
the questions and my boiling anger as I stared at my food and continued 718Please respect copyright.PENANAChfwTTGXg9
to eat. When we were all done with our main meal, we were served 718Please respect copyright.PENANA4CIAFA47in
dessert. Again, surprise, surprise, it was my favourite dessert, frozen 718Please respect copyright.PENANAWHcBm25HpW
chocolate moussé.718Please respect copyright.PENANASYk0cYTpbU
"Yum, yum, yum," I said,718Please respect copyright.PENANAt5JnTv9zuO
with a bright smile on my face as the waiter laid down a dessert bowl 718Please respect copyright.PENANAj7N7toI6xG
filled with chocolate moussé in front of me.718Please respect copyright.PENANAnxqoKsuRu0
"This is the most excited I've seen you today, Sam," said Taeyang.718Please respect copyright.PENANAIAfUaSOTTH
"It's because chocolate moussé is her favourite dessert," said Daniel. "Give her that and she would be your best friend."718Please respect copyright.PENANAbGlANYEBr3
"I'll keep that in mind," said TOP.718Please respect copyright.PENANA7Xp0ENjlXV
I didn't wait for 718Please respect copyright.PENANAclc0K4pbR7
everyone else to get their own share of dessert. As soon as I got mine, I718Please respect copyright.PENANAxmQdYBgBy0
got a dessert spoon and started to eat the cold dessert. Mmmm, I closed718Please respect copyright.PENANAVl67iZi0dS
my eyes as I took it in my mouth and for once, I felt like I was in 718Please respect copyright.PENANA2hskWRVvD2
heaven.718Please respect copyright.PENANAkbgt9RkhK7
"This is so good," I said, with my eyes closed as I savoured the chocolate in my mouth.718Please respect copyright.PENANAu9fNvjzRfm
"Be careful though," said G-Dragon. "You're not supposed to be eating cold stuff when you've a cold and a cough."718Please respect copyright.PENANAME4ZQYgIEO
"I don't care," I said 718Please respect copyright.PENANABTpJcY4TCT
as I opened my eyes and smiled at G-Dragon. "I would end up with a bad 718Please respect copyright.PENANA1nwi9TqNKu
sore throat and I still wouldn't mind."718Please respect copyright.PENANAYHp4QLZJMP
G-Dragon smiled back at 718Please respect copyright.PENANA6L4Xc5vwXR
me and I realised that I wasn't mad at him anymore. It looked like I 718Please respect copyright.PENANALU5JNRQkEy
really couldn't stay mad at him. And I was glad that all the hate faded 718Please respect copyright.PENANA5RbNaJFVLa
away.718Please respect copyright.PENANA2f01OurKK1
After dessert, we all 718Please respect copyright.PENANAFBU6spp1tF
just sat there and started to chat. For once, it felt really good to be 718Please respect copyright.PENANA5LXZT8ZW1z
on speaking terms with everyone again. We were soon talking about what 718Please respect copyright.PENANAwjRHmIAXIl
happened yesterday. After going through all that and talking about it, 718Please respect copyright.PENANAJQHZsXqMme
it all seemed rather funny and we all laughed about it. Although, the 718Please respect copyright.PENANAvdu1MVwmX4
part where G-Dragon had made me dive into the pool seemed to hurt a 718Please respect copyright.PENANAXODpCnSX8a
little, I knew I would grow out of it someday.718Please respect copyright.PENANA32HBIu8OBJ
"Hey, may I ask?" Seungri asked. "How did Lee manage to keep our managers at YG for so long?"718Please respect copyright.PENANAPrY8nvjK1S
"Not sure, I'll make sure to ask her later on," I said.718Please respect copyright.PENANAQxV1db1o4O
"Yesterday, was just hilarious," said Zoey, wiping away a fake tear after laughing. "We should try that again some time."718Please respect copyright.PENANAeunINhUlWt
"But this time, not at the water park," I said.718Please respect copyright.PENANANkCNiN5u6D
"Then where?" Daesung asked. "The water park was so much fun."718Please respect copyright.PENANAWVWuuy9O9I
"I suggest we try to figure that out later," I said. "We have stuff to do."718Please respect copyright.PENANAWIuBr5Utsl
"What stuff?" TOP asked.718Please respect copyright.PENANASnNdPLOTx1
"The song. Don't tell me you all forgot?"718Please respect copyright.PENANAecFHg3JLQu
"Oh, the song!" Mike slapped his forehead. "I myself forgot about that."718Please respect copyright.PENANAuDsoUWSTpb
"I thought both you and G-Dragon were going to work on it," said Christine.718Please respect copyright.PENANA5U9s3xWGU7
"Ya, but I have a better idea," I said.718Please respect copyright.PENANAd9kpKMUbaL
I felt Taeyang look at me and I turned to look at him.718Please respect copyright.PENANA7WqBzPvz1B
"Are you really going through with that?" Taeyang asked, as he whispered.718Please respect copyright.PENANAojEz6sTqKl
"I don't think that's a big deal, is it?" I whispered back. "I think it's a good idea."718Please respect copyright.PENANAYcUfPSOyeN
"Wait, what's going on?"718Please respect copyright.PENANALv5RZzBBlb
G-Dragon asked, as he noticed Taeyang and I whispering to each other. 718Please respect copyright.PENANAkR8ehyyXb2
"And what idea have you come up with for the song?"718Please respect copyright.PENANAid0LkJaI7u
"I thought we should all718Please respect copyright.PENANA6iJUEuTeNi
work on the lyrics together. I feel it will be a lot better if we all 718Please respect copyright.PENANA6IKMAPpL2S
bring out our ideas and put them as lyrics."718Please respect copyright.PENANAeQ1wh9wi02
"But why do we have to put our heads together if there is you and G-Dragon who are better at song writing?" TOP asked.718Please respect copyright.PENANAKn9CA24Y8v
"I don't know, I feel we718Please respect copyright.PENANAjvi78qRGSj
have to put our all in the song by coming up with lyrics from everyone.718Please respect copyright.PENANAA1Mr33pXJG
It might sound a little strange, but we all have to help each other out718Please respect copyright.PENANACfDDnOhITf
on this. If there is anyone objecting to it, you're free to do so."718Please respect copyright.PENANAfJhA0wUlJf
"I don't get it though,"718Please respect copyright.PENANANs5iegHnBz
said G-Dragon, as he leaned back on his chair and stared at me. "What 718Please respect copyright.PENANAqqnWtz8NBj
made you come up with this idea when we already agreed on who will write718Please respect copyright.PENANAx1w4jAIKHk
the lyrics?"718Please respect copyright.PENANAA5dr3ZDQhA
"I don't know, it kind of felt right, I think," I said.718Please respect copyright.PENANAuh8xmel3m3
"You think?" G-Dragon now raised his eyebrow at me. "Is there something you aren't telling us?"718Please respect copyright.PENANATJPlQWehoC
This time, I also raised718Please respect copyright.PENANAAKDzUeul8S
an eyebrow. I had told Taeyang about my idea earlier not because I was 718Please respect copyright.PENANAjIyTcdbdbU
trying to avoid G-Dragon but for everyone else's benefit.718Please respect copyright.PENANAtUI3X8ouk8
"What makes you think I have other intentions?" I asked.718Please respect copyright.PENANADZlA8PBPtz
"Maybe you might still be mad at G-Dragon," Zoey blurted out.718Please respect copyright.PENANAqA7vO2X1CO
I sighed. Great! These were the times you wished Zoey never had such a big mouth.718Please respect copyright.PENANAfonH5ip86Z
"Is that true? Are you still mad at me?" G-Dragon asked.718Please respect copyright.PENANA1WohkSKM8X
"No, not any more," I answered. "At first I was, but now I'm over with what happened yesterday."718Please respect copyright.PENANAUaUooXxqC3
"Or are you still mad that you don't want to work on the lyrics with me?"718Please respect copyright.PENANAtbaLvUnqHE
By the way G-Dragon 718Please respect copyright.PENANAGBcOIxYitc
spoke, I could tell he was hurting. But it was pretty hard to try to 718Please respect copyright.PENANAhvC51LNu4t
convince him that yes, I was mad at first and I wanted to avoid him. And718Please respect copyright.PENANAYAEfP5DMNe
no, since I'm no longer mad at him any more and that the idea of all of718Please respect copyright.PENANAdr4hMay3su
us working on the lyrics for the song seemed like a good idea.718Please respect copyright.PENANANfGbuWs1Wx
"I just told you, I'm not mad anymore."718Please respect copyright.PENANA0hy8ElxwUD
"Why is it that I don't believe you?"718Please respect copyright.PENANAO8Ew0Ma0Ya
"Maybe, it's because you're objecting to my idea and you just want to make up what would be a valid reason for it."718Please respect copyright.PENANASwRmipu4ia
"Mmm, looking at it through Sam's point of view, I see nothing wrong if all of us work on the song," said Daniel.718Please respect copyright.PENANAyHDDmzqedx
"Then why come up with this in the first place?" Zoey asked. 718Please respect copyright.PENANAqCOqQhQpsC
"I already told you, I just think it's a good idea," I repeated.718Please respect copyright.PENANAv7RFD0VKsE
"Well, I'm not up for it," said G-Dragon folding his arms. "I object."718Please respect copyright.PENANAOMscke2LCT
"Well, you should have said that instead of blaming me for coming up with this as an excuse."718Please respect copyright.PENANAIWoSSg5fWG
"I think you are, and you're not telling us."718Please respect copyright.PENANAkv4x5hI0yf
"Are we going to go through this again? You just objected."718Please respect copyright.PENANA0s6ENjileG
"I could go through this over and over again if I had to until you tell us the truth."718Please respect copyright.PENANAyrxAAz36yV
"What truth?" I asked.718Please respect copyright.PENANAyqbwE5LQ6S
"Okay, guys this is getting a little out of hand," said Taeyang. "Don't forget, we aren't the only ones here."718Please respect copyright.PENANAXMgKQrtDWD
Taeyang was right. I was718Please respect copyright.PENANAggsgf9Tscu
so caught up in the argument with G-Dragon, I forgot that we were in 718Please respect copyright.PENANARpvPIXrLpx
the hotel dining room. I looked around us and a few heads from other 718Please respect copyright.PENANAolMwflj2mT
tables turned to ours. It seemed like our argument caught some people's 718Please respect copyright.PENANAQ4ELdJGImK
attention.718Please respect copyright.PENANAHF2fKV4dwO
"Tae's right," I said. "We shouldn't be arguing, much less here."718Please respect copyright.PENANABnSOnGzQbH
"Then let's conclude on this once and for all then," said Deasung. "Those who favour Sam's idea, raise your hand."718Please respect copyright.PENANAcWqPMGRJiC
Taeyang, Daesung, Daniel718Please respect copyright.PENANARYuHRL1ahe
and Mike, raised their hands. That meant Zoey, TOP, Seungri and 718Please respect copyright.PENANAyry8Xfr2Es
Christine were on G-Dragon's side. What a bummer!718Please respect copyright.PENANAwRq5Pi17p9
"Whoops, looks like it's a tie," said Zoey playfully with a smirk.718Please respect copyright.PENANAJqH0ujxwmQ
"It's not funny, Zoey," I said shaking my head.718Please respect copyright.PENANAnefHgV43tG
"Well, this just got serious," said Seungri, scratching his head.718Please respect copyright.PENANAF9fyHVuR8b
"It's a tie, so I suggest we..." I was then interrupted by G-Dragon.718Please respect copyright.PENANAH4RDs1TGPl
"No, this time you aren't going to say or suggest anything," said G-Dragon.718Please respect copyright.PENANAOuymjlc7vS
"But I....." 718Please respect copyright.PENANAefP2ObVm6S
"Sam, sshh," said Zoey, 718Please respect copyright.PENANA6KLqNJ9hNv
pressing her index finger to her lips, telling me to keep quiet. "You've718Please respect copyright.PENANAM7SozyEvt8
talked way too much, don't you think?"718Please respect copyright.PENANASFh41MzA2z
That felt like a slap in718Please respect copyright.PENANAjqRVCUHAKu
the face and I felt my face burn up in embarrassment. It looked like 718Please respect copyright.PENANA3abdmQ63xF
the tables had turned on me today. At first I was mad at G-Dragon and 718Please respect copyright.PENANAVTKekpnCgH
the other Toxins, but now, I was the one pissing everyone off. What 718Please respect copyright.PENANAyPlwI97msX
happened to me being the leader? I know G-Dragon was older, but what 718Please respect copyright.PENANAzvYH3YZYv9
about what I thought was best for the whole group?718Please respect copyright.PENANAXOLx8MjH9S
"I suggest we think about it and when we meet tomorrow, we vote over it again," said G-Dragon.718Please respect copyright.PENANAtvzDNVNaGD
"That's fine with me," said Mike.718Please respect copyright.PENANAQRC4ac3Uvu
Everyone else agreed, 718Please respect copyright.PENANAOCPBw1S8Kr
except me since I was told not to say a word. I personally also thought 718Please respect copyright.PENANAKpDdDD7Q9y
it was a good idea to try and think things through. But what if it 718Please respect copyright.PENANAcJ6y3qNeu0
didn't work out tomorrow? What would we do then? I had a terrible 718Please respect copyright.PENANAVula0ZCcB4
feeling that things weren't going to go as planned and we needed a Plan 718Please respect copyright.PENANANZuh31KnEz
B, just in case.718Please respect copyright.PENANA8elV4GUxcR
"Okay, then, we will meet tomorrow," said G-Dragon as he stood up to leave.718Please respect copyright.PENANAe4SQR80Gge
"But I've something to say," I blurted out.718Please respect copyright.PENANAjDQjYZKFrj
"Not now, Sam. We will 718Please respect copyright.PENANAccE7dlTGJK
meet tomorrow," said G-Dragon as he looked at me and walked away from 718Please respect copyright.PENANAoI80vdMHb1
the table heading for the door. I had to admit, the way he looked at me 718Please respect copyright.PENANABpT0a5Me96
gave me goosebumps.718Please respect copyright.PENANAIhlSU8DESa
"Way to go, Sam," said Zoey, as she also stood up from the table. "You just made him upset. I need to go calm him down."718Please respect copyright.PENANAgLtGSYzpRG
Zoey went after G-Dragon and I sat back on my chair, feeling defeated and powerless. 718Please respect copyright.PENANAIQmU2XwKUw
One by one everyone 718Please respect copyright.PENANAw9KF9AckOS
started to leave the table without even saying a word. It was awkward 718Please respect copyright.PENANADkv1FAgjBS
with the argument that had taken place, and saying something didn't seem718Please respect copyright.PENANA8PaQaSBV7R
appropriate.718Please respect copyright.PENANAsO5XP9ouzF
I was soon left with Taeyang at the table and I looked at him, wondering why he hadn't left.718Please respect copyright.PENANAJMRZN9mc8Y
"Aren't you supposed to have left by now?" I asked.718Please respect copyright.PENANACfHfCwh29y
"And leave you all alone? No way," said Taeyang.718Please respect copyright.PENANAOWiKrHJaE2
"Why do I feel like I've just become the villain?" I asked, my thoughts elsewhere.718Please respect copyright.PENANAACAMX5Mxfh
"You aren't a villain. You just feel bad that not everyone agreed to your idea."718Please respect copyright.PENANA0hrUGro3VR
"It's not that. I pissed718Please respect copyright.PENANAsQrtkalvgs
almost everyone off and that makes me feel bad. How I wish I could take718Please respect copyright.PENANASgY5OHHyMh
everything I said back. Too bad I can't control time."718Please respect copyright.PENANAqSfLbqcQkn
"You never knew that was going to happen. Let's just hope for the best that it would all seem like one bad dream."718Please respect copyright.PENANAmqOPrwx5rv
"Thanks, Tae" I said, trying to put up a smile. "It means a lot that you're still here."718Please respect copyright.PENANAX5AauJNJhv
Taeyang placed his hand 718Please respect copyright.PENANAxNU0vqpdsg
on my shoulder, an assurance that he was there for me no matter what. He718Please respect copyright.PENANApzpWHbNG4z
smiled back at me and I felt comforted.718Please respect copyright.PENANAYZoziV2JVS
I knew I had to hope for718Please respect copyright.PENANAmT89vP4nRS
the best just like Taeyang had suggested. But I couldn't ignore the gut718Please respect copyright.PENANAuWuWBk0d5o
feeling that things weren't going to run smooth and easy from now 718Please respect copyright.PENANAjCcd7A7GOk
on wards. Especially now that G-Dragon was angry at me. He seemed more 718Please respect copyright.PENANAxW4yqNwJLI
angrier at me than I was at him. I feared for the worst and I knew this 718Please respect copyright.PENANAgftYc0BOYh
was just the beginning of a heavy storm ahead.
