I was looking out 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAfNBQiobwNy
through the car window on an early Thursday morning as we were being 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAL8RAQpEBrC
driven to YG. I felt so much had happened since we got here, it felt 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAdbshUXRwZG
like we had stayed in South Korea for so long when its only been five 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAoDn0uf5lap
days. I already felt homesick and the feeling of going to YG this 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA5zHnX87I69
morning, made me nervous.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAbXOxFAYbim
I didn't know what to 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAJrAZyAyB6o
expect when I get there. Yesterday was a total disaster and I prayed 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAna7XN1IVsJ
that today it wouldn't be the same. But deep down, I knew I had to 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAIkcatib8Ql
prepare myself for what's to come. 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAQbbPMyPxOh
Although the other 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAfQTeRZMswl
Toxins and I were still on speaking terms like nothing had happened 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA2GY4TLLIkN
during lunch yesterday, I could somehow feel the tension amongst 1094Please respect copyright.PENANANr1zKjPBbb
ourselves. It's like we were now divided ever since I had suggested on 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAAfJD50xiLc
on all of us working on the lyrics for the song. Mike, Daniel and I on 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAfl7PXjwhXI
one side, Zoey and Christine on the other. How I wish it never came to 1094Please respect copyright.PENANANcXwbSlikL
this and I regretted every moment of it. But as the saying goes, what's 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAy2IxujLysF
done is done.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAMZm56MMjpB
We were all seated in 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA9j1LIjBPeS
the car, the others talking amongst themselves with Lee and Collins 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAHPsOntE8Fv
while I was quiet and feeling out of place. We hadn't told Lee and 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAGWqXFI4ftV
Collins about our little conflict yesterday. We decided not to tell them1094Please respect copyright.PENANA7a7Mm3vHsB
until we came to a final decision. That's if it will even be necessary.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAS7R49f9h7A
"Looks like someone is 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAKZsy7bTXPu
deep in their thoughts this morning," said Collins who sat in the front 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAFghp28H23V
seat of the car and was looking at me through the rearview mirror.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAilzHc5M7uB
"I just miss home, that's all," I said.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAR17mHDu0ft
"You can give your mum a call later on in the evening," said Collins. "I bet by then it would be daytime in the U.S."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAFGGm4jPNge
"Ya, sure." I tried to put up a smile, but it felt pointless.1094Please respect copyright.PENANA1qGslBntjG
We finally arrived at 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAJuEPAwXuFu
our destination and when we all got out of the car, I couldn't help but 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAnzeW3f57z2
feel nervous. The five of us followed Collins and Lee into the YG 1094Please respect copyright.PENANARZLSEH0qfg
building. As usual, we first had to go for practice. We left Collins and1094Please respect copyright.PENANAeZeilt7HBY
Lee downstairs on the ground floor, while the rest of us took the 1094Please respect copyright.PENANANawzyhKMcO
elevator heading for the changing rooms.1094Please respect copyright.PENANASPDE9gL06V
After changing, we all met in one of the dance studios, ready for practice.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAQNiOUoXDPN
"So, what should we do first?" I asked. "Go through the same routine as always or come up with some new dance moves?"1094Please respect copyright.PENANADzVP1KaEiZ
"I don't see why we 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAchlFH8qpR4
should come up with new dance moves," said Zoey. "I mean, it's not like 1094Please respect copyright.PENANACkOuT3v92z
we have come up with a new song yet or anything."1094Please respect copyright.PENANA6cKdgl07f6
I felt my heart jolt upwards and I couldn't tell if it was guilt because of the song issue or I wasn't just feeling too well.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAeFL6pxx90f
"But we always come up 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAUtvKqeZolo
with new dance moves even without a new song," said Mike. "I've come up 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA3GvjSKP8oe
with some pretty good moves and I think we should try them out."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAWGTiVurkSl
"Well, okay then," said Zoey, shrugging her shoulders as though in doubt. "Let's give it a shot."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAQP03lyu0dk
"Zoey, if you want you can just sit back and watch," I said. "It seems to me you don't want to do this."1094Please respect copyright.PENANA14pv3JIJla
"No, I want to, believe me," said Zoey.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAfSTdrp8hdE
"Okay, if you say so," I turned to Mike. "So, what new ideas do you have?"1094Please respect copyright.PENANAorcZl3bil9
Mike soon begun teaching1094Please respect copyright.PENANAk6v4jWiFAF
us some of the dance moves he had come up with and without fail, we all1094Please respect copyright.PENANAuIazQNDU5h
got to know them quickly even when we made a few mistakes here and 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAWd870D0fkE
there. We soon got a hang of it after going through it a number of 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAgcpyVNJ27V
times, it turned out to be perfect and we liked it. Sometimes back home 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAuUNOS8MxAk
when our choreographer, Jimmy wasn't available, Mike would step in and 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAKx3o4irwfA
act as our choreographer instead. Most of the time, the two would both 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAzDoOu8gvDX
work together, and they made a pretty good team.1094Please respect copyright.PENANA84lq4Zn5Lh
After going through the 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAh2P47t6du3
dance moves flawlessly with what seemed like the fourth time, we decided1094Please respect copyright.PENANAWiOF7p8COl
to take a break. And when I went to collect my water bottle on a rack 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAkVSjqMLiD2
where we laid our training bags, I noticed from the corner of my eye 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAk2XTSWqCDE
that the door stood slightly open. That's weird. The last time I 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAg4uNpnSfU2
checked, the door was closed and I am pretty sure of it.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAbmvJHcdbWp
When I turned to face 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA0Gb2epkzp4
the door, I noticed a shadow, and it moved. Someone was definitely 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAwGdF8dgyns
behind the door. I started to walk towards it and when I got to the 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA9xPvcQfChJ
door, I was surprised with what I saw. 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA68K5h4OHOJ
Standing behind the door1094Please respect copyright.PENANAbJcpgjIlWb
were two young trainees, probably in their teens, a male and female. 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAvGUvV5lJOs
When I saw them face to face behind the door, they seemed frightened and1094Please respect copyright.PENANAM7DisHhw6u
they bowed their heads.1094Please respect copyright.PENANArotgc1OZy8
At that moment I didn't have any words to say as I kept staring at them.1094Please respect copyright.PENANABCgFin0o40
"Hey, Sam, who is by the door?" Christine called out to me.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAEBwHak3iO8
I couldn't even reply. I1094Please respect copyright.PENANAYZnkEQAXwL
didn't even know where to start explaining to Christine that there were1094Please respect copyright.PENANAZykpr1q0xP
young trainees by the door, who were probably watching us practice.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAtiKNfur9hq
Before I could say anything, the girl said, "we're sorry. We didn't mean to spy on you while you were practising."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAvLeNVPJKSE
"Yes, we're sorry," said the boy. "We were just leaving."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAW7ekhncGpW
With their heads still bowed low, they slowly started to back away.1094Please respect copyright.PENANApOKRiD0VcF
"Wait, stop," I said.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAgwI9F4tfyl
The two trainees immediately stopped as though they were robots. It felt a little weird, but I quickly brushed off the feeling.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAwrEa66P7CI
"Please, come in," I said, stepping aside and widening the door for them.1094Please respect copyright.PENANA3r1tZJJqgq
For a moment, the 1094Please respect copyright.PENANArKdOrKN6hd
trainees looked on at me with scared looks on their faces. I can tell 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA1MgDMJ8Lnz
why. It was probably some of the rules set around the place and they 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAh0gpFxHzAD
must have found it quiet weird that I, the famous B.K, had told them to 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA6ZucdbOUxD
come in.1094Please respect copyright.PENANA7bwuFmqVQd
"아니요 (Aniyo)," said the 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAPbFVSJNrIZ
boy. I recognised that he said 'no'. I don't know Korean, but there were1094Please respect copyright.PENANA0nSUz6Zmau
some basic words I got to know so far from watching some K-Drama 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAQPylFQl2k0
series.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAW5oKt2N7uO
"I mean, no," said the boy, this time in English. "That won't be necessary."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAaxrOo0xwxX
"No, I insist," I said. "Come on in, we don't bite."1094Please respect copyright.PENANARE75A8RCpY
Zoey soon appeared behind me and asked, "what's going on? Are these fans of ours?"1094Please respect copyright.PENANAIMsM9wLPq0
"Well, maybe," I said. "Don't try to intimidate them. You know you scare people."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAZyuFTofxqt
"No, I don't," Zoey 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAc3uXHX2sbe
turned to face the trainees and said, "you guys can come on in and 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAFKI39dBYPR
practice with us. You're YG trainees, right?"1094Please respect copyright.PENANALVzTTlY6Ox
The two trainees 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA5GWMQ6DsIK
nervously nodded, still with their heads bowed low. I looked on at the 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAupw5qjYdrf
trainees, then at Zoey, then back at the trainees again.1094Please respect copyright.PENANADDGAoKFBpp
"If you are worried 1094Please respect copyright.PENANArwlouhARYj
about getting in trouble with Yang Hyun-suk, don't worry about it," I 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAWfGx5R05UE
said. "You can come and practice with us. You don't have to be afraid."1094Please respect copyright.PENANA9Ssi0Ccdg4
The two trainees looked 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAqrrItQZWfs
at me and this time, they looked really excited. By the looks on their 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA5rHED4oyPK
faces, I bet they were fans, and probably the idea of dancing with The 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAYALpncnaHy
Toxins seemed like a dream come true. I knew how that felt, because once1094Please respect copyright.PENANAwS4QB3JEg8
upon a time, I was once in their shoes.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAfmcCVXAMdL
"Re-really?" the girl asked, looking at me with excitement in her eyes.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAFWNtxImmio
"Ya, sure. Why not?" I 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAGOhCd9DaZk
jerked my head to the side, telling them to come in. I knew I was 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAt8FU9bUF88
already in trouble with Yang Hyun-suk because of what happened at 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA3bkgdwGv3a
Caribbean Bay, so I didn't mind if I got into more trouble just because 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAwfUUGoTlEK
of allowing innocent trainees to come and practice with us.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAxMMVuepK1i
The trainees gladly followed as Zoey and I led the way.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAwDUAn1oprc
"Oh, I see you brought in some friends," said Daniel as he saw us approaching. "Welcome guys."1094Please respect copyright.PENANACd4B3cyXps
"Thank you," said the two trainees at the same time, with huge big smiles on their faces.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAs2UJUroKUp
"You guys don't mind if they join us, do you?" I asked the others.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAX30fR6hJxX
"Not at all," said Mike.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAqjPRD8DjgF
"Ya, it's good to have people around, much less our fans," said Christine. "It's going to be so much fun."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAwxzVpXB74X
"Wow, this is like a dream come true," said the girl. "I never knew I would be dancing with you guys."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAjrgPgrAX7J
"You better believe it, girl," said Zoey, giving the girl a wink. "Dreams do come true."1094Please respect copyright.PENANA69P3K4Fk9x
"So, should we teach them the new dance moves we have been working on?" Mike asked as he turned to me.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAHgMshVQo3S
"Ya, sure," I said. "It's okay with me."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAemIxGt9MSr
Mike soon started to 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAngaWcAVTVK
teach the trainees the dance moves and surprisingly, they got to learn 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAz5D2qQxl59
it quicker than I anticipated. They were really talented, I had to give 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAjbDfnHNUkF
them credit for that.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAQLroGm8FlM
"Wow, for trainees, you're really good," said Mike, as he turned to face them.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAMGKVLtOSxv
"We try," said the boy. "We have been watching you practise, so it wasn't that hard."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAqIPMk4uXLR
"We didn't get to know your names," said Daniel.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAyhRXlRMMsh
"I'm Soo Mi," said the girl.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAB0Xay6ed9p
"I'm Young Jin," said the boy.1094Please respect copyright.PENANA4VtDBhtWG1
"It's really nice to meet you guys," I said. "Why don't we go through the dance moves together and see how it all turns out?"1094Please respect copyright.PENANAyj2H3aVPxO
Everyone agreed. We 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAl4rYTvo7Ve
positioned ourselves and started going through the moves again and it 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAVquncjfPFk
was awesome. When we were done, everyone cheered and we all gave each 1094Please respect copyright.PENANApRBUkeVdnL
other high fives.1094Please respect copyright.PENANA2ninoUi2bk
"This is so much fun," I said.1094Please respect copyright.PENANA6Y0lxx3dTH
"Ya, I know, we should be doing this more often with other trainees," said Mike.1094Please respect copyright.PENANA7PxHsoM5mX
"Ya, but we have to finish this dance routine, Mike," said Zoey. "So, work on it."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAdG7B2tTVcS
While I turned to talk to the trainees, I noticed Lee come into the studio. And she seemed to be coming straight for me.1094Please respect copyright.PENANALSiZCYcctQ
"Sam, we need to go," said Lee as she came close.1094Please respect copyright.PENANA0FfU8I7Uiu
"Go? Go where?" I asked looking confused.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAc5DyBmhDHO
"The reporters are here, you know, over the video of you and G-Dragon."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAv706NF8wRv
Yikes! I was enjoying 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAHPWdySnlil
myself with practice and being friends with the trainees, I forgot all 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA8Wqjanpg3I
about the video. I wish the reporters should just forget about the 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAXDHfqYxzFj
stupid video for once and let it be.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAMTR5K0OOPn
But that wasn't my only 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAB2d0ju3d8x
fear. I am going to be with GD for the interview and the thought of 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAoBwNSFVAbk
being next to him somehow made me nervous. I realised that I had 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAzJhVYcxn4R
goosebumps all over my arms just at the thought of it. I just hope he 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAaeLtOZqrW9
isn't mad at me anymore. But I was going to trust my gut and say that he1094Please respect copyright.PENANALCa7vfVTTo
probably still is.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAe6Zpi3O6eK
"Wait, they are having their interview today?" Zoey asked.1094Please respect copyright.PENANABmzgI6w0Wk
"Yes, and right now," said Lee. "Go and freshen up, Sam. You must be ready within fifteen minutes."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAU1WnRtLJAU
"Um, okay," I said. I could even hear my voice breaking. 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA3rEf3Q0dGZ
"Is GD already here?" Christine asked.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAYNgYmPplht
When Christine asked the1094Please respect copyright.PENANArtEwvgmz9V
question, I felt my heart stop beating. Eish! I was nervous for sure. 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA4KrPCC9NDF
The thought of GD being here almost made me want to run.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAAQrmOepuot
"No, but he will be here any moment," Lee replied. "Come on, Sam. You better take a shower."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAbS0S2PXgge
Somehow, it felt good 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAsjJncdFb8B
that I was going to take a shower. Maybe I would cool off and try to 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA1MMLT55TQ0
calm down with all of this. But I felt that wasn't going to be the case.1094Please respect copyright.PENANASJ5S5NocvF
"See you later, guys," I said as I followed Lee who led the way out of the studio.1094Please respect copyright.PENANABZfHIKsqdL
Everyone waved and 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAtscRsYPmzY
wished me luck. Dealing with reporters wasn't easy and you just didn't 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAL8g8mFg4E2
need luck to confront them. You needed guts and confidence.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAAkQrehZqQ4
I needed luck to be on my side though, because dealing with G-Dragon wasn't going to be easy.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAn0YEbITmIc
***1094Please respect copyright.PENANAeGNHMNFQ5S
The make-up artists were1094Please respect copyright.PENANAzWnYemNJji
done powdering my face and my hair was all combed and tied up in a pony1094Please respect copyright.PENANAMfkTnqB670
tail. I wanted to look simple in front of the cameras and reporters 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAeJW2gKIkjZ
just like I always have. Except whenever I have to shoot for music 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAXieodfkpqA
videos and taking photo shoots, I have to apply make-up just to fit in 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAqbss0g7A7M
with the scene.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAXvfM1BnWED
When the make-up artists1094Please respect copyright.PENANAe2zLgY7BtA
were done and I was applying pink lip gloss on my lips, I heard quick 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAHtWqEl8hnt
chattering behind me and someone mentioned G-Dragon's name. I turned to 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAQrfGyNLUqJ
look behind me and I saw G-Dragon entering the dressing room.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAgEyIkhMJsK
My heart skipped a beat 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAviaPs1g9l0
as I watched him. He didn't seem to notice me at first because of the 1094Please respect copyright.PENANADN4hIqmdaX
make-up artists and clothe designers that surrounded him trying to 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA06NKWLj1XE
figure out if he needed a bit of make-up and a change of clothes. But 1094Please respect copyright.PENANABU2u6MWybq
just the way he was dressed seemed okay to me and they seemed to have 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAwDrOVNhLD5
noticed that too because, they backed away from him and went on to do 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAI0xBC4K3q7
their own things.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAmIUtesMhH1
He dyed his hair blonde 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAuMztXytmET
this time around and it matched with his white fancy jacket with gold 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAXlDRLoYP5Y
studs on the collar and a black shirt beneath. They never call him a 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAHcigTq0x2m
fashionista for nothing.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAZEyj3RG4ah
When he looked in my direction, he saw me and he immediately looked the other way as though I was nothing.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAN4TPaupSbN
Ouch! That's gotta hurt!1094Please respect copyright.PENANAOnd60pf2zR
I felt my face grow hot in embarrassment. He was still mad at me. I 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAeisy9IEtg3
slowly turned to face the mirror again trying to act like nothing was 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAm9k6jGJrra
wrong, when I was actually hurt.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAxg0tJK9V0n
Through the mirror, I 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAq3ADMSGzsZ
saw G-Dragon take a seat on the other side of the dressing room facing a1094Please respect copyright.PENANAJWsOrUmSHi
mirror. He was looking down on his phone, probably texting or 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA999rM2t8u3
something, and I continued to stare at him.1094Please respect copyright.PENANA0w6HMznPwr
G-Dragon looked up at 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAOIzpnl9W2r
the mirror in front of him and I bet he saw me looking at him through my1094Please respect copyright.PENANAtqrffmy4x4
mirror because he had a funny look on his face and he went back to 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAl8zbdiTKt4
looking at his phone. Bummer! I could tell by the way he looked at the 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA5qYfpVDIH1
mirror that he obviously saw me looking at him. I sighed in deep regret 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAk5BiuSI9gs
and looked the other way. I had never felt so alone.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAgFvKjBdisd
Then all of the sudden, 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAOGiusM8tjX
someone behind me held my shoulders and I almost jumped in fright. I 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA48PoyFp554
looked behind me and there stood Daesung. 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAAY96GIKmdc
"Hey, little kitty. Your head's in the clouds today," he said, as he continued to look down at me and smiled. "What's up?"1094Please respect copyright.PENANABkXEGNMT0B
At that moment, I was so1094Please respect copyright.PENANAVSc7lMZQuf
glad that he was here. Right now I needed someone to talk to. I smiled 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAyVbBnP9RyI
back up at him. His smile and his presence seemed to have brighten my 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA1TQE4ozsr6
mood a little.1094Please respect copyright.PENANApSn353HFyY
"Take a seat and I'll tell you," I said.1094Please respect copyright.PENANA1eZtD28bO7
"Okay, sounds serious," said Daesung as he grabbed a chair and sat next to me.1094Please respect copyright.PENANA0uOss0ZZN9
When I looked at 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA7mUeBxDew7
Daesung, I felt myself blush. With our shoulders almost brushing each 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAS7wcEToHXX
other, I could feel the electric pull between us and I hope he wasn't 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAqvTXDit4Q4
feeling it too. It brought back memories of what happened the day before1094Please respect copyright.PENANA2HnBY40lGM
yesterday. The two of us hadn't even tried to bring up that topic yet. 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA9xsMUSlAKm
Maybe we never will.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAL3SUBOnMx6
"So, tell me, what's wrong?" Daesung asked.1094Please respect copyright.PENANANX1SmXELnn
"Everything is wrong," I slowly replied.1094Please respect copyright.PENANApWKOkoYO3w
"Is it about yesterday?"1094Please respect copyright.PENANA9zREiXI1c5
"Ya, it is."1094Please respect copyright.PENANATnIMe4iUUF
Daesung looked behind 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAav6ShdlWCQ
him because he knew what I was taking about. I also turned and G-Dragon 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAPUQACk3ILG
was still on his phone ignoring everyone around him. He seemed lost in 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAJ0G8D5zsVB
his own world.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAT3UPJWIPRG
"He's still mad, isn't he?" Daesung asked as he turned to face me.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAJpDoIGX6wJ
"Pretty much," I replied. "He didn't say a word to me when he came in and ignored me as though I didn't exist."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAfobUbcCN3r
"Let's just hope he doesn't stay that way for long."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAlKid5NKFt5
"I hope so too. But why do I get the feeling that this is only going to get worse?"1094Please respect copyright.PENANAyyIKefXXj5
"Stop thinking like that, okay?" Daesung held my hand that was on my lap. That sent tingles up my arm and down my spine.1094Please respect copyright.PENANA9ajcwEpU0Q
"I can't, Daesung," I said. "My gut feeling has never failed me before. Why should it now?"1094Please respect copyright.PENANAhHseRzkDKa
"I don't have the answer to that. And it seems to me you really trust your gut a lot."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAuJWZJmetkX
"Dah, I always do," I said rolling my eyes playfully as I smiled.1094Please respect copyright.PENANASYvS6MOKJb
Daesung laughed and that1094Please respect copyright.PENANAHrwW0tY74a
caused me to laugh also. I felt so relieved that I shared this with 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAskOigMSbBG
Daesung. He is so nice, caring and understanding, just like Taeyang.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAyRnAouyopQ
I soon felt someone's 1094Please respect copyright.PENANANHdUk9kP9S
eyes on me as I laughed. I looked behind me. For a moment, I had a 1094Please respect copyright.PENANASjssYh4eHN
feeling that G-Dragon was staring at us through the mirror, but his eyes1094Please respect copyright.PENANAxfivyRJhnb
were still on the phone. Maybe I was just imagining things.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAK9sZjQcj38
Lee suddenly came in the dressing room and said, "Sam, Ji Yong, it's time to go. The reporters are waiting."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAn0I9vO3uSL
I quickly stood up and 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA9sJIgEDDjb
checked if my clothes were alright. I was wearing a blue summer dress 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAzEUPD3ek20
with purple flowers on it and white flats.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAePXAixxvzU
"You look beautiful, Sam," said Daesung. "Just stunning."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAUt2NHB9P40
I smiled and I blushed like crazy. Right now, I had to focus on the interview and Daesung was sweeping me off my feet.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAY4NId7lM9Y
"Thanks, Daesung," I smiled, as I continued to blush.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAkAftoea2Dw
I noticed G-Dragon stare1094Please respect copyright.PENANAWg7sBcnYYR
at us as he stood up from his chair. And when I turned to face him, he 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAKMzAXIrHKt
quickly looked away and walked out of the dressing room, bypassing Lee 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAZdHqbGhucM
who was by the door. For a moment, the room was silent as everyone, 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA2fq5kM3mhw
including the people who worked around the dressing room, noticed 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAjGCmMOVByl
G-Dragon's odd behaviour.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAj8Nq6An1q6
"Wow. What's wrong with him?" Lee asked as she pointed her thumb down the hall where G-Dragon had passed.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAM1jnV6aL33
"Long story," I answered. "We better go."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAkNIVLYqLzs
Lee nodded her head and I turned to face Daesung.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAJxK2Pw0YLw
"You'll be fine, don't worry about it," said Daesung as he smiled at me.1094Please respect copyright.PENANASvjJHPxJuh
"Thanks," I tried to put up a smile, but it all felt useless.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAGkRl0jcyFQ
Lee and I walked out of 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAPtoU6GrXsL
the dressing room together and it seemed like G-Dragon had already taken1094Please respect copyright.PENANAt1TDtOpjGo
off into the elevator without us because he wasn't in the hallway. The 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAnf4uhfilmA
guilt came back to settle within me and I couldn't help but blame myself1094Please respect copyright.PENANA1eynh1fVLi
that it was all my fault he was acting this way.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAJdyF2Ls8uL
When Lee and I got into 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA82yKhFm5L4
the elevator, she asked, "why does G-Dragon seem so upset? I noticed the1094Please respect copyright.PENANAGIhbcsU0cB
way he looked at you. Weren't you supposed to be mad at him for what 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAP7ywEzUw98
happened at Caribbean Bay?"1094Please respect copyright.PENANAhLIXvRV1or
"A lot has happened that1094Please respect copyright.PENANAysDy4RlQrY
you don't know about, Lee," I said, staring at my feet as the elevator 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAToVF7nowgZ
continued to move. "So much that I can't explain."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAjyNN3p3dO4
"Like what? I heard you guys had lunch yesterday and things didn't turn out well."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAYmUCdPC9tb
"Where did you hear that from?" I asked as I quickly turned to look at her.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAZ3WS8Fl5YG
"Too much gossip among 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAQaVLkou1Dp
the working staff at the hotel," said Lee with a smile. "Don't worry 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAAkDYCAnb2q
though. They said it didn't seem so serious."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAUvVB4DdeI0
"Wait? You understand Korean?" I grew even more surprised when that thought suddenly dawned on me.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAG11R2qBQMu
"Dah," said Lee, rolling1094Please respect copyright.PENANAPLrv13GI85
her eyes and the elevator doors slid open. "Why do you think I was able1094Please respect copyright.PENANAI9oiL7FAtL
to hold Yang Hyun-suk and Collins for so long at YG? Oh, and don't tell1094Please respect copyright.PENANANbK9qFaasr
Collins. He doesn't know either."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAMWY9P6PrH1
"You never told me what happened," I said as the two of us stepped out of the elevator.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAEuhSHm9tBF
"Well, I think the both 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAgoSesTpQJ2
of us have a lot of catching up to do after this," said Lee as we both 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA8INWMBgNxO
walked down the hallway and turned round the corner. "Right now, it's 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAgmQ4yeNmwB
showtime."1094Please respect copyright.PENANASDX3NQraWB
It was showtime indeed. I1094Please respect copyright.PENANAzfdt6DveTm
found Collins, Yang Hyun-suk and G-Dragon talking amongst themselves in1094Please respect copyright.PENANAgF08M8zTSU
the hallway. Behind them was the door that led to the conference room. I1094Please respect copyright.PENANAd87kKrYYld
could hear voices of the reporters behind the door and I felt my palms 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA9zphROhdM1
starting to sweat. I wasn't such a fan of interviews and I hated them.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAx103CHyTR2
"Ah, here she comes," said Yang Hyun-suk as he noticed Lee and I approach. "You're looking very lovely today."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAunOxkjjs48
I bowed my head at him and said slowly, "gomawoyo (고마워요) (thank you), Hyun-suk Sajangnim (사장님) (Boss)."1094Please respect copyright.PENANARVkvZb26an
"I'm impressed," said Yang Hyun-suk, with a smile on his face. "You're really learning."1094Please respect copyright.PENANA56F5VFNhU5
"Well, I try to do the best I could," I said.1094Please respect copyright.PENANA7GlZMd29Cj
"Sam really knows how to adapt to the environment she's in," said Collins. "No wonder she's so smart."1094Please respect copyright.PENANA9pwHxs66cx
"No doubt about that," said Yang Hyun-suk. "And she's looking really lovely today, isn't that right, GD?"1094Please respect copyright.PENANAbxcXIKLjPu
My heart almost skipped a1094Please respect copyright.PENANA2XXih3Dj3z
beat as I turned to look at G-Dragon who was also looking at me. For a 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA051CIZSAlm
moment, he didn't reply and I was scared at what he was going to say.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAIXLOT6sigF
Surprisingly, he managed1094Please respect copyright.PENANAOQK3jPNvPj
to put up a smile on his face. For a moment there, his smile seemed 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAogjQpMcvrb
genuine, but I could feel the negative energy behind it.1094Please respect copyright.PENANATINgSX3Oeh
"Yes, she does look lovely today," G-Dragon replied.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAeBfHimKkdz
I didn't know whether I 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAqlmIXfghzL
should run or remain where I was. I couldn't stand this any longer. I 1094Please respect copyright.PENANApwqMUtlNyb
felt he was some psychopathic killer ready to jump on me when no one was1094Please respect copyright.PENANASrtaannJj2
looking. And honestly, I felt pretty terrified.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAwqqI5YY5U2
The door soon flew open 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAN4r5axQbl7
and someone came to inform us that everything was all set and ready to 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAqX6SFQsMSt
go. I breathed out heavily as I tried to calm myself and we walked 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA4LdTlRv8T3
towards the door. My palms were still sweaty.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAaTIj4whf5C
"Hey, don't worry about a thing," said Lee as she reached me to the door. "You'll be alright."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAnOEWmAd7dm
All I could do was nod my head at Lee and I stepped in to the conference room first with G-Dragon behind me.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAsjy3S3IgeS
The flashing lights of 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAKd9fgU7FWP
the cameras flashed around me. They blinded my eyes for a moment, but I 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAk7wfVigcDs
pretended not to flinch as I continued to walk up to the small podium 1094Please respect copyright.PENANADhzlNakkPs
and there stood a table with four chairs.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAhLeohPW9Wj
I got up to the podium 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAZKVYdAeBtO
and I was guided where to sit. There were four chairs behind the table 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAKNbT3VD5nI
and I sat in the middle and G-Dragon sat next to me. Collins sat to my 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAbBRJ2mpdgl
left while Yang Hyun-suk sat to G-Dragon's right.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAfx1ukXY4oq
The bright lights of the1094Please respect copyright.PENANAIWDXfZkrKm
flashing cameras continued to flash in front of my eyes and it took 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAGiaSwOKeL5
time to regain my vision. I soon noticed that there were a lot more 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA3CIgJhYTAc
reporters and camera men in the conference room than I had anticipated. 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAav9daYnykV
My hands were as sweaty as hell and I felt them shivering. I bet this 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAM854y0O0c7
interview was going live on national TV because I noticed video cameras 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAZU4ma8em9J
around the room.1094Please respect copyright.PENANADrWwUeTpT9
"Good morning, 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA5RYjfnt33Y
everyone," said Yang Hyun-suk through the set of microphones that were 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAfT40eeuXB9
in front of him on the table. "We may now proceed with the interview. 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAw1SQ5S8k1K
You may begin to ask your questions."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAtrhVwciomy
The thing I always hated1094Please respect copyright.PENANAJ6CC2SeXV8
about interviews, was that reporters could ask the dumbest questions, 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAUA0tPZzjQZ
the personal ones, the most hurtful ones, the most confusing ones and 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAioRs1uRvDq
the inappropriate ones. I hoped and prayed that the first question 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAEfkAQFKgLc
wasn't going to be any of the five I had in mind. 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAepdLtmWG6H
A lady among the 1094Please respect copyright.PENANALSxYeMJWlY
reporters raised her hand and Yang Hyun-suk told her to proceed. I had 1094Please respect copyright.PENANASMAGjgghfb
my fingers crossed. I always hated such moments.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAX5OH31XAMu
"I'm Mi Sun from MBC 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAGxZyEl4Vou
TV," said the reporter. "On Tuesday this week, a video of YG's own 1094Please respect copyright.PENANACSIJncoGmP
phenomenal artist, G-Dragon, and Samantha Glasson, also known as B.K, 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAnoERM0pRCN
was released on YouTube and almost became a worldwide trend. My 1094Please respect copyright.PENANArIngL3TW6u
question, probably on everyone's mind is, are the two of them dating?"1094Please respect copyright.PENANAB6rWaXPpnE
Yang Hyun-suk answered, 1094Please respect copyright.PENANANoq56mTo7u
"we can assure you that the two of them aren't dating. That video wasn't1094Please respect copyright.PENANAS0j6C6Ctj0
supposed to be aired on YouTube."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAZ5b4eX0vP9
"If it wasn't supposed to be aired, then who did this and why?" the reporter asked.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAxWeCsuWQdw
Ah, oh. Was this the 1094Please respect copyright.PENANADvp6Gmkhh8
part where either G-Dragon and I were supposed to answer the question? 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAx03dLH1vZL
If so, I wasn't ready to tell them that my very own best friend had done1094Please respect copyright.PENANAnrqh2C7aXX
all this. I feared of what the outcome may be.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAHT1x9wRhkr
"The person who took the video was none other than our very own, Zoey," Collins answered.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAyBHAhzWQ0z
From the corner of my 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAd0bSweOadA
eye, I looked at Collins. I knew Collins wouldn't want to make Zoey look1094Please respect copyright.PENANAxtqYYNqa6G
bad for any reason at all, but it looks like he and Yang Hyun-suk were 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAFtUw1EqH4q
sticking to the truth. I might as well just do the same.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAYb2ykNvwQf
Another reporter, a man this time around, raised a hand and Yang Hyun-suk allowed him to speak.1094Please respect copyright.PENANArcexLElCBQ
"Thank you, my name is 1094Please respect copyright.PENANApDSYeSPXAU
Jin Soo from KBS," said the male reporter. "I think a lot of people 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAwNOEsgmaYw
would want to know after hearing all of this, why would Zoey post that 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAMMHykXGFZ0
video? From the look of things, what was going on between GD and BK 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA7oG5h1oHMP
seemed like a private affair, or was the video all for show?"1094Please respect copyright.PENANAANjgxRnWBn
This was what I feared. I1094Please respect copyright.PENANAj9RI9rEDZs
bet a lot of our fans were thinking G-Dragon and I were actually dating1094Please respect copyright.PENANA06VZYfztbb
and had high hopes. Now that people know the truth, it would crush the 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAa52PC7Eb81
fans and Zoey would end up being the villain. But telling the truth was 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAi2TQaVAXXW
really the best option. It wouldn't seem right, now that GD and I were 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAglgO0sghN7
clearly not on good terms at the moment, to tell the whole world a lie.1094Please respect copyright.PENANANEtqkVw5Oo
"I think I'll answer that question," said G-Dragon.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAspD7ddpE3c
For a moment, my heart 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAT8gOrmRwfQ
almost skipped a beat as G-Dragon spoke through the mic. I turned to 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAcILwV8R9fX
look at him. I just hoped he wasn't going to say anything that would 1094Please respect copyright.PENANANb2Tn71ML5
raise more questions from the reporters.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAx9PHwKH3bs
"The video you saw on YouTube wasn't for show," said G-Dragon. "All that was actually real."1094Please respect copyright.PENANA8g7xZFqqvF
"And you allowed Zoey to take the video?" the male reporter asked.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAvd6PAEAYBS
"No, apparently, we never realised that Zoey was taking the video until it was already too late."1094Please respect copyright.PENANA0Pbvzii7H7
"But why did she do all that? Can you explain what her intentions were at the time?"1094Please respect copyright.PENANAWMHJ6qr9em
I knew G-Dragon wasn't 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAcpvYS14ZZQ
going to answer that question because no one knew Zoey better than I 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAwzaVtxZVwJ
did. So without realising it, I stepped in.1094Please respect copyright.PENANABtr9E5mZIm
"I know what Zoey did by1094Please respect copyright.PENANAWFfkQ30WOy
releasing the video has raised a lot of questions in everyone's mind," I1094Please respect copyright.PENANADzLiUYGkyW
said, confidently. "Many of our fans had high hopes that GD and I were 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAEtPnPP9mZw
dating, but that's not the case. What happened was nothing but a 1094Please respect copyright.PENANALEnFMe49dJ
misunderstanding."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAWNtPfg1L3S
Immediately I said those1094Please respect copyright.PENANAuPll21DzcK
words, everyone's eyes were on me now, including those around the world1094Please respect copyright.PENANA3Sf42ZJ07H
probably watching on their television screens or devices. Yang 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAIibq375Hns
Hyun-suk, Collins and G-Dragon also stared at me. The camera lights kept1094Please respect copyright.PENANA2sUlfvKi14
on flashing in my face like crazy. I wish I could tell the camera men 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAEwfeiw8GOc
to stop because the flashing lights were so annoying. 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA1PELlJ8q5V
I continued before any 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA19pmA4Nfhw
reporter could ask what I meant. "The truth is, what was going on 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAOLCB4Uph7h
between GD and I was real. He gave me chocolates and roses because he 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA4BShw7ikVx
was trying to make up for not being there for me the previous day and to1094Please respect copyright.PENANA6pjRZN6pqs
congratulate me on making it on the Elle Korean Magazine Cover. So, him1094Please respect copyright.PENANAfwO47Z6RP1
giving me those gifts were more like saying 'congratulations' and 'I'm 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAfyH7D0Igwr
sorry for not being there' kind of thing."1094Please respect copyright.PENANA1su2ker7st
For a moment, no one 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAH9W7C4pqsg
said a word, not even the reporters. I turned to Collins, who gave me a 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAh76yRIOy5f
nod to go on. I continued to stare at the audience of reporters and 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAB7xnxATOJ2
camera men. I could feel G-Dragon's eyes on me though. But that 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAOyJ5ohfxQZ
shouldn't intimidate me. I cleared my throat and went on.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAWILzUs20Sf
"And knowing Zoey, she's1094Please respect copyright.PENANAJsWhNrPKO4
one who likes to capture such beautiful moments. So, she decided to 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA8ynt9tVS0W
take a video of what was happening. And before we could realise what was1094Please respect copyright.PENANAUei9X4ViYh
going on, it was already too late. She first posted it on her fan base,1094Please respect copyright.PENANAPz45cBJd1a
which she usually does. But before she could take it down, her loyal 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAH8nbhKTO8J
fans had already seen it and probably one of them posted it on YouTube. 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAa4csW8DQsP
And that's how everything came to be up to this point."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAxQakILhSKz
All the reporters who 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAxHUJJ3dB26
were taking down what I was saying, started muttering among themselves 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAAdDE7xYIPB
as though we were in a debate room. I didn't know what they would 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA5i16Xs1LEj
obviously be talking about and I hoped that they weren't going to ask a 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA3eU7Wnjj3T
question that might just intimidate me.1094Please respect copyright.PENANA08TfMEwUZv
The same female reporter from MBC raised her hand and she was told to proceed. I feared for my life.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAtRxujqf5w5
"So what you're trying to say, B.K, is that all this is Zoey's fault?" the reporter asked.1094Please respect copyright.PENANA4Sl24X3FLL
"Well, I could blame 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAdh7KAVtWZM
Zoey because she was the one who took the video in the first place and 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAs9hzhhoZzh
without our permission. But it's not entirely her fault," I replied. 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAm9bm08NH77
"I've grown to know her very well because she's my best friend. I know 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAt38gqSqkes
she didn't mean any harm by raising people's hopes that we were dating. 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA2GxEmdWiNL
Knowing her, she thought she could try to capture the great friendship 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAXmO1YvZVJ4
that G-Dragon and I have."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAzOSDOLAznX
What was I saying? I 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAbrPIPfUsmL
know I am being honest and genuine, but saying it with G-Dragon by my 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAt2k6rL6Iql
side felt awkward. If people got to know that G-Dragon and I had quiet a1094Please respect copyright.PENANACCerkVW4Dm
misunderstanding the other day, it would surly raise questions and the 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAUKicPiFsqI
whole world would criticise me.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAMhZWuYIVXG
I stared at G-Dragon 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAmpr4exMf2g
beside me and he was still staring at me. I could see it in his eyes 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAynZrzreoEJ
that me saying all that felt wrong, but all that happened way before the1094Please respect copyright.PENANAp5FYe5jvmf
argument. I was hurting as I said all that and I wish I could turn back1094Please respect copyright.PENANAtcS59qL3x3
the hands of time and set things right.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAphR03YBk75
"And also, she's always 1094Please respect copyright.PENANArEKp12OUhQ
admired G-Dragon," I continued, as I turned to the audience. "So, I bet 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAq9bCKzKK2i
she was trying to capture G-Dragon's great personality. We all know how 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAx7CO0nWa98
much of a good guy he is, so, that's why Zoey did all that."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAtPuji3OELV
I think I had said 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAOKWxLNqhmR
enough and I kept quiet. This was awkward and I could feel that G-Dragon1094Please respect copyright.PENANAvKIGLaXVac
was feeling the same way. All I wanted was for this interview to be 1094Please respect copyright.PENANArV7IY82amk
over and get out of the conference room.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAzct4qD3TrL
"So, you two are clearly not dating?" the reporter asked.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAagMCsSnh13
"No," G-Dragon and I replied at the same time.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAIuImmnWb8U
Okay. That felt weird. 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAaR2Px4xuKi
My eyes flew at G-Dragon and he also turned to look at me. That made 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAtzXbBbVHmI
things even more weirder. I bet those watching on national TV would 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAfuvWTTHGOn
either find all of this a show or something beyond the ordinary.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAGdxO0D8dFm
"And you guys wouldn't 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAoJ9Fei4rdJ
like to date in future?" the reporter continued. "Because a lot has been1094Please respect copyright.PENANAUAb2qyCzgv
said since the video came out that you two would make a great couple."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAVZiQbe1lZB
"No, we wouldn't."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAbH7D2ImLm1
Dang it! We replied at 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAw21KzhjaCt
the same time, again! This wasn't going so well and we both knew it as 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAIMoujEeSx7
we stared at each other. These were the times you would tell the 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAv4kFQveVnz
reporters to mind their own business and walk away like you didn't care.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAksWFa26Mnm
This was turning out to be just terrible.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAAmAuOwdcT8
"There would be no need 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAtdkDVPAocU
to ask such questions," said Collins. "The Toxins are here in South 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAbbm2IK6evN
Korea strictly for business. There would be no point for Sam and Ji Yong1094Please respect copyright.PENANAk39DbpMd5A
to start dating when The Toxins would obviously stay here for less than1094Please respect copyright.PENANAvVf351ZZY4
a month or two."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAliYFyekk5y
Phew! Thank you, 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAQnuueGsDkN
Collins! No wonder I considered him as my top guardian angel. I was so 1094Please respect copyright.PENANALKpCGWXYbI
glad that he finally decided to step in or else I would obviously have 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAC1r7CLRyhp
told the reporter to piss off.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAXrPe8yEGuo
"So, how is the song 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAILR9TDJxnk
coming along?" the reporter asked. "Because I heard The Toxins and 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAYxp0Kt0kPN
BigBang had quiet a fun ride at Caribbean Bay the day before."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAn5lpyzzBHi
Oh no. That question was clearly not necessary. Aargh! This was what I considered the inappropriate question.1094Please respect copyright.PENANA9cNLNfSMMT
"I don't see why you get1094Please respect copyright.PENANAyyMznf10Mw
to ask that," said Collins. "They went out to have fun and find a 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAQi7HhlDqjr
source of inspiration for their song. And why not at Caribbean Bay? I 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA6H3PpKWaCo
know Sam and Ji Yong were supposed to be here for the interview that 1094Please respect copyright.PENANATdaTUSLB0a
day, but apparently, you all came at the last minute when they had 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA6z5M0eF58y
already made plans to go out."1094Please respect copyright.PENANANpQLtNf1Jf
I didn't know whether to1094Please respect copyright.PENANALOvMJkW2wm
be impressed that Collins is such a good liar, or I should hug him at 1094Please respect copyright.PENANApmyANNx1ZR
the end of the interview for saving our necks. That was such a close 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAwZqF9bqHv7
call.1094Please respect copyright.PENANA1yEf7g5NIE
"I think time is already up," said Yang Hyun-suk. "So, if you would kindly excuse us, we have other schedules to attend to."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAsebZpYdNfM
No reporter asked any 1094Please respect copyright.PENANABJfYVplkfT
further questions, that meant all of this was over. Finally! I just 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAJ38thFyE1D
wanted to get out of here and breathe. I needed the air because things 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAxTXjMGRgOJ
were starting to get a little intense in here.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAoAoOU52yLc
When we all got up from 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA8CAAw1kRxU
our chairs to leave, I was backing away from my chair and the back of my1094Please respect copyright.PENANAtPB4dWTFMR
shoe got caught with one of the cable cords on the floor. Before I 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAgOhSZ56y7f
realised it, I tripped and was falling backwards. 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA3ZoHckyCBb
I almost screamed but before I could even reach the floor, G-Dragon caught me just in time. 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAehTU0tlJTd
The camera lights in 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAAadGMb8FWb
front of us flashed like crazy because of the scene. And I couldn't help1094Please respect copyright.PENANApCTlCANfFV
but feel that all this just made things a whole lot worse.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAoACHjoqVI2
G-Dragon and I were so 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAzex70P56Zu
close and I couldn't help but blush when I looked up at him and he was 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA02Yrn0enQ8
staring down at me. I knew that he was still angry at me, but I wanted 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAu6xX7qg9i5
to forget about that and I hoped he would too. We could both carry on 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA1WjDxaaWuh
with our lives as if all that never happened.1094Please respect copyright.PENANA25oELobZ3t
He quickly helped me to 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAncaOYLqsaB
straighten up as the camera lights continued to flash before us. I 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAAFi5j3yJdM
stared at G-Dragon and I realised that I was still blushing. I took a 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAY8DR1D1Ad5
strand of my hair behind my ear and cleared my throat.1094Please respect copyright.PENANADPVhdoeEKy
"Um, thanks, GD," I said to him.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAVYh3yMFiNA
"You should be a little more careful next time," he replied.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAhahZkuSoe1
I couldn't tell if he 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA68ik0q7Hgo
said that because they were reporters around, or he really did care 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAHImB4AJslq
despite being mad at me. That, I'll never know.1094Please respect copyright.PENANA3ndHrZ8FSJ
The four of us walked 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAvX3DwHTf49
out of the conference room and I couldn't help but realise that I had 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAG6jv89HlTM
another challenge ahead now. And that was the song.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAmRs2Wn8HKe
***1094Please respect copyright.PENANAunXjuCjAmP
"Sam, you were just awesome! Come here, you!" Zoey exclaimed as she ran towards me and pulled me into a tight hug.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAAMqXawyRpy
G-Dragon and I had just walked out of the conference room and Zoey appeared out of no where.1094Please respect copyright.PENANA1QbG2zsmxB
"I thought you weren't supposed to be here," I said to Zoey, still embraced in her arms.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAgQSNt4KE3E
"Well, ya," said Zoey as1094Please respect copyright.PENANANBYXYwnxDQ
she pulled away from me. "I was watching the interview with the others 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAWNjAJuXUbr
upstairs and when I saw how you defended me in front of those reporters,1094Please respect copyright.PENANAdDIu2vd06h
I decided to come down here."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAXx4vX3ylec
"You should have seen the way she came," said Lee. "If it wasn't for me, she would have come running into the conference room."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAp4ghPV9u3e
"Zoey, what are you doing here?" came Collins' voice behind me. Yikes! Zoey was in for it now.1094Please respect copyright.PENANApuJfI5nrNZ
"I came for my best friend," said Zoey. "Is that bad?"1094Please respect copyright.PENANA6uABBMjgHj
"At the moment, yes," 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA44E9NHxn8E
said Collins. "Not when everyone now knows that it's all your fault that1094Please respect copyright.PENANAcwsGhrmoFi
you released the video and made everyone have high hopes about Sam and 1094Please respect copyright.PENANACbyxjmis2S
G-Dragon's relationship. It was best to keep you out of plain site of 1094Please respect copyright.PENANADNwiedhwns
the reporters to keep them from asking any more questions."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAkg9eaB2gFf
"Come on, Collins," said1094Please respect copyright.PENANABecVD71UBf
Zoey, shaking her head at her manager. "Don't you know up to now that 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAz2eO0gX0DE
whatever Sam says to the media everyone will listen and believe her? No 1094Please respect copyright.PENANApSsHcrIa9d
one is going to be mad at me for long if not at all. You'll see."1094Please respect copyright.PENANA4MkI6iPHae
"I don't get it," I 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAzF28Wu1dkF
said, with a confused look on my face. "Why do you say no one is going 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAhz4lhYTCQP
to be mad at you because of what I said?"1094Please respect copyright.PENANAn16Q1f6W3l
"You told the media that1094Please respect copyright.PENANAHvYTqHvS1h
even though I made the video, it was partly not all my fault. If you 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAQbTrkxrSyA
want, Collins, you and I can bet on it. Everyone listens to Sam. She's 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAgJAeuNSlyl
like some high-rank public figure. If she were to run for president, she1094Please respect copyright.PENANAMkxHFxsyNp
would be instated the very same day."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAWRroDf9UW4
Yang Hyun-suk, Lee, 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAo2Qk5bRufp
G-Dragon and I laughed at Zoey's joke, except Collins. I knew he was 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAYK2VdSF2Pp
pissed with what Zoey had said, but I had to admit, that was something 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA445zPetIy1
even an angry person would laugh about.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAsYLxH4mqkF
Speaking about angry 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAeHURP79I1y
people, I turned over to G-Dragon who was still laughing. It felt good 1094Please respect copyright.PENANARiAzWjJXq2
to see him laugh and I smiled. But very soon, he will be back to the way1094Please respect copyright.PENANAwVVEfj09YQ
he was. Just the thought of that made me swell up with sadness that I 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAQewmGKWbgh
even had to face the other way so that no one would notice it all over 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA9MroFNE99V
my face.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAJrqNxlhjHG
"Zoey is one person you 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAmrRzqQkNE8
should never throw away in your life, Collins," said Yang Hyun-suk, 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAIs6lB3jlL4
holding Collins' shoulder with a bit of laughter on his face. "She's 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA3FKnDZx7kD
just hilarious."1094Please respect copyright.PENANATwApXDvH1M
"Ya, she's one of a kind," said G-Dragon.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAQz7fDTsJYn
"Ah, and how could I 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAvMmbgARcUv
forget about my lovely G-Dragon," said Zoey, as she came to stand beside1094Please respect copyright.PENANAM0Y8UXKj2J
G-Dragon and hooked her hand around his elbow. "You looked awesome 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAcSelCwB1So
today. And handsome too."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAadBLOugg1c
"Wow, looks like Sam was right," said Yang Hyun-suk. "You do admire G-Dragon."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAtzisyDfoy2
"Ya, no one knows me better than Sam," said Zoey with a grin. "If it were possible, I would gladly have dated G-Dragon."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAQS4sOgYjcI
"Don't even think about it," said Collins, pointing a finger at Zoey.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAdtY0aQNXEz
"I know. 'We're here 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAyymy2a6ha3
just to collaborate with BigBang, yadda, yadda, that means no dating 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAcrYKvhq7N4
anyone of them.' I still remember that rule," said Zoey rolling her 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA6HelSYehSo
eyes.1094Please respect copyright.PENANA8wjd139SjC
"Sometimes I wish I could kill you," said Collins, shaking his head.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAVinKqbcJTL
"But you can't, because you love me just as I love you, Collins," said Zoey, with a huge grin on her face.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAgIkFnbtWPd
"Hilarious," said Yang 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAp0J70ccLGS
Hyun-suk. "We better get going. You three have to get that song ready, 1094Please respect copyright.PENANASuTWP442td
while we, have other things to attend to."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAAbcc8izzJA
Oh, the song. For a 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAAXJnhZXKvO
moment, I never wanted Yang Hyun-suk or anyone else to mention it. I 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA9jJQARVgdK
felt my heart beat faster and I felt like judgement day had finally 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAMwutwn3ETW
come.1094Please respect copyright.PENANApkC7zhS9By
We all found ourselves 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAM6nMAoW4fY
in the elevator and I was quiet the whole way. The two managers were 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAbQX3Tqj955
busy talking about something important, while Lee, G-Dragon and Zoey 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA7i9msRfDFs
were talking about the interview.1094Please respect copyright.PENANATAKIJhst78
When the elevator 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAaHGESfi1Kd
stopped, Zoey, G-Dragon and I got out and we dropped off on the floor to1094Please respect copyright.PENANAB58YtUyqU5
the recording studios. Our managers and Lee continued on their way 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA83Yh72zNp8
upwards in the elevator probably heading for Yang Hyun-suk's office.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAlsaCEaymJI
While the three of us 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAih0iX73cVA
walked along the hallway, heading for one of the rooms, I couldn't help 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA7bKv2U7Y6R
but fall behind G-Dragon and Zoey as the two walked ahead of me 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAoAh2gFH8cK
alongside each other. The two were so deep in their own little 1094Please respect copyright.PENANACCv8qSpzCc
conversation, I didn't feel like listening or joining them. At that 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA0ndrExzwOH
point, I felt like I didn't matter.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAgrnhe5MrCX
We found ourselves in one of the recording studio rooms and we found all our group members waiting for us.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAzIRJqp9mp5
"You're back!" Christine1094Please respect copyright.PENANAoqXSmipA1A
ran towards us, coming straight for me and pulling me into a hug. "You 1094Please respect copyright.PENANARBl69iRwOK
were so brave standing up for Zoey like that."1094Please respect copyright.PENANA4lPzNgqnsW
"You know I don't like interviews," I said, trying to put up a smile. "I was actually scared."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAIpfAk5lImr
"You didn't seem that way," said Taeyang. "You looked very calm as though you knew what you were doing."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAYDqK4pjBMj
"And you also looked very pretty," said TOP, giving me a wink.1094Please respect copyright.PENANA1yvtehhk3q
"Um, th-thanks," I said while my cheeks blushed after Christine had pulled away from me.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAoewD2YHg70
"Ya, you're looking 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA4WGma85qxc
prettier even now," said Seungri, staring at me with dreamy eyes. "I 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAxPZIWZZOt0
would've come down there in the conference room and kissed you in front 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAOwMdLyd9yV
of the whole world."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAzdIVehaoR8
Daesung who stood beside1094Please respect copyright.PENANAACmpUYdXCu
him slapped him on the shoulder. Seungri whined in pain while he held 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA8TYJIZQxy9
his shoulder and stared at Daesung.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAxTddKuqzke
"What?" Seungri asked. 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAwlwIGmBVhK
"You only want to cause trouble, do you? You should learn to respect Sam, you know," said Daesung.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAOGCyzqHMww
I couldn't help but get the feeling that Daesung was a little jealous. I couldn't help but smile to myself.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAtkHs4jeeXE
"Hello! Isn't anyone going to talk about the little scene that happened at the end of the interview?" Daniel asked.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAE5nHlrGzHs
"Oh, the part where 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAxvRWTAknP1
G-Dragon saves Sam from falling?" Zoey asked. "If you're worried that 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAxNl9TGggvG
people would find that romantic, I highly doubt it."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAqr2282BvHe
Highly doubt it? If 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA6EXWkxxvd2
Daniel was thinking the same way I had earlier, people would start to 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAP0VPLhW4iv
make up a love story that barely even existed.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAkNB41fwh4b
"Well, fans do like to 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAVtu7RdsNar
make out a love story out of small things," said Taeyang, scratching his1094Please respect copyright.PENANAOXEHtq2RXa
head. "I wouldn't be surprised if that happens."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAS23AaLCsxs
Oh, no. Looked like 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAoDnhoOJ9zj
Taeyang was also on this one too. I wished for someone to change the 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAmeSZ52lBG1
subject. This was starting to feel awkward, especially with G-Dragon 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAh1S9Tv7zYW
standing right in front of me.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAfB0XYQRlbD
I stared at G-Dragon and1094Please respect copyright.PENANAfdYzfkwlKo
I could tell by the look on his face that he didn't want to hear a 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAVEVZIbilph
single word concerning love stories. We had other serious things to 1094Please respect copyright.PENANARGtER42pE7
think about.1094Please respect copyright.PENANADtO0YUV322
"Can we drop that for 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAyjtVfCgCdi
now and focus on the song instead?" G-Dragon suggested. "We don't have 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAB3irxbUirU
much time and we need to work on it right away."1094Please respect copyright.PENANA2V2jbFiCxz
"GD's right," I said. 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAiSiTdTQGIA
"We all saw the reporter ask on how much progress we've made and Collins1094Please respect copyright.PENANALKvLlDovXP
made an effort to cover for us. So, for the sake of our managers, let's1094Please respect copyright.PENANA9edgLVaoPT
get to work."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAchvpwpkJ9v
"But we have to vote again, remember?" TOP reminded us. 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAFRdPHRok3z
Everyone fell silent and1094Please respect copyright.PENANAnQ4QQVJAIe
the room felt awkward. It was like the ghost of yesterday still haunted1094Please respect copyright.PENANAcXcmt9bD85
us even now. Again, I still felt like it was all my fault.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAAPzq4mMq3r
"Well, we all agreed yesterday to vote again," said G-Dragon. "So let's get settled and get this over with."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAXkcrrnAmBd
When everyone went to 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAmI6H6GX2Yf
settle down on the black leather seats, I stood on the same spot, deep 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAc2l4geGvLV
in thought. Was all of this worth it? The last thing I wanted was for 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAPN24L5h6hT
all of us to be divided because of my stupid suggestion. Maybe I was 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAaHLboUXOTh
wrong this whole time and I shouldn't have done all of this in the first1094Please respect copyright.PENANAY3lyn2VM7v
place.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAL10UMaiFp4
"Hey, Sam are you alright?" TOP asked. "You seem troubled."1094Please respect copyright.PENANA5OPhg8JVE3
I came back to reality and I saw everyone staring at me with worried looks on their faces, except G-Dragon.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAjb2aaYEIMJ
"Sam, are you okay?" Zoey asked when I didn't answer. "Something is up and you don't look so good. Tell us. What's wrong?"1094Please respect copyright.PENANAEoKtkTSNyS
I still didn't say a 1094Please respect copyright.PENANATkyVZWoFc7
word as I played around with my fingers. I took in a deep breath and 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAKGLG8czEo1
breathed out with my eyes closed, clenching my hands into fists. When I 1094Please respect copyright.PENANApP2AZqJ0wy
opened my eyes, I looked on at the others and said:1094Please respect copyright.PENANAdNdbuEtiRI
"This voting thing is 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAhYBgvE4SQo
pointless. I take back what I said yesterday. It's for the best if 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAFc536tIEGE
G-Dragon and I work on the lyrics for the song instead."1094Please respect copyright.PENANASNQPX3VL6k
Again, the room fell 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAvnWHjuJVhb
into an awkward silence. Everyone's eyes were on me and they looked 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAcWRjboYn1R
surprised, except for G-Dragon. I couldn't tell whether he was smirking 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAEAStTGGyMv
or he decided to play stoic for a change.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAJMPJktODrg
"Wait, what?" Daniel asked. "Why?"1094Please respect copyright.PENANApVCRAXge6H
"Because, Daniel, 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAbvCRXmVwzT
nothing is going to change," I said, looking at my brother. "The same 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAHzQUkOUPAK
thing will happen even today when we vote. It will end up in a tie 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAzedUPxvuMF
again. So, what's the point? I bet a lot of you have thought of it the 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAerQihLEccI
same way, haven't you?"1094Please respect copyright.PENANAa192pZW6st
No one said a word as they all looked at each other, apart from G-Dragon, who still had his eyes on me.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAIM3H99dHVD
"I think it's best this 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAF5ueWPQksi
way," I said, grabbing everyone's attention again. "We're going nowhere 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAKAlp5qBjHJ
like this and I should have realised it sooner."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAwpuEeSnUlk
"Well, it's about time you came to your senses," said G-Dragon.1094Please respect copyright.PENANA7Z5cKTxLGo
I felt like I had been given a slap on the face. And OUCH! It hurt like hell. 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAqJ1HPCc41o
"That's a little harsh, don't you think?" I asked.1094Please respect copyright.PENANA3YTcImnJJ9
"Well, it's true, isn't it?" G-Dragon asked, with his eyebrows raised.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAgXktDhz7Id
"Well, at least I'm bold enough to even admit that I was wrong."1094Please respect copyright.PENANA9HdPeI5Oq1
"And you want me to give you credit for that, Samantha?"1094Please respect copyright.PENANAL5FBrc1w1p
Samantha? Really? He 1094Please respect copyright.PENANADEjDZwaPMU
called me by my full name. Okay, it was clear he was still mad, but he 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAdiEWqdLPoV
shouldn't be expressing his anger in front of everyone else like that. 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAjyxBzvAk3A
He should be doing it to me and me alone. I was ready for what's to 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA8s29ObVCwk
come, but not with our group members around.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAVIEIjwM9SQ
"I don't think we should argue here," I said. "Why don't we go some place else and talk?"1094Please respect copyright.PENANAS2v0q6ACTa
"And why should we?"1094Please respect copyright.PENANAiWP6jSs3ZS
"It's not right and you know it. If you want to get personal with me, at least do it with no one around."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAYDnjwojTBF
"Oh, and now you're trying to play the good girl trying not to hurt anyone else?"1094Please respect copyright.PENANAyiSNkBOJIG
"That's what I'm meant to do, GD. This isn't right."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAtxSqHE18Tu
"Sorry, Sam, but I'm 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAO18sAtnNTc
rather comfortable here," G-Dragon leaned back on the chair with his 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAATrLCywuhG
hands behind his head and crossing his leg above the other.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAvMb1FdvTAG
I shook my head in 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAxQRYhLujAR
disbelief. G-Dragon was totally unbelievable. Right now, I wasn't sure 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAHJY0zwKFHd
whether to hate him or just feel sorry for him.1094Please respect copyright.PENANApo13boHQls
"Fine, then we'll stay here then," I said.1094Please respect copyright.PENANApslPZRtMPg
"That's more like it," said G-Dragon, with a smirk on his face. 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAEirYKS8tuy
"You're so stubborn," I rolled my eyes at him.1094Please respect copyright.PENANATdL8RHsr87
"Ya, well, I was born this way."1094Please respect copyright.PENANADq7Sd9sMtf
"Can we please start working on the song now?" I asked. "It seems like we don't have much time left."1094Please respect copyright.PENANA85FgUSW0Lq
"Okay, let's start."1094Please respect copyright.PENANANUFYioYQJb
"Umm, sorry to interfere1094Please respect copyright.PENANA0B2eWr26Lz
in all of this, but are you serious right now?" Zoey asked, looking 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAKCwSHWMCUs
surprised and confused at the same time.1094Please respect copyright.PENANA4pwvFdjPxg
"What's wrong?" G-Dragon asked, shrugging his shoulders.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAJEwt0Pk4mI
"I don't know if you are1094Please respect copyright.PENANAQkUhvCFhFA
seeing this, but you two look like you're about to tear each other's 1094Please respect copyright.PENANATtmbmKCoPk
throats out. Doesn't that bother you? And you want to work on the song 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAf7hTXfoHiA
together? Today?"1094Please respect copyright.PENANAVdafH5cWm0
Zoey was right. What was happening now looked more like the beginning of World War III, if not the end of the world.1094Please respect copyright.PENANA9BanhfUYip
"I'm sorry, Zoey," I said. "But do we have a choice?"1094Please respect copyright.PENANAJacmfM8rwb
"Well, I have one. Why 1094Please respect copyright.PENANArZAwHkZO6S
don't you two take a break from each other? You're scaring me and 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAipJB1I70JK
probably the whole lot of us too. Why don't you two cool down and work 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAPinCDwOvgC
on the song tomorrow?"1094Please respect copyright.PENANAqVCyWO0BlK
"Zoey's right," said Taeyang. "You two need to chill out. You both seem angry at each other."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAOaLKCzWRKO
"I'm not the angry one, he is," I said, pointing my finger at G-Dragon. "I'm just being reasonable!"1094Please respect copyright.PENANAsESsISxcI2
"I know, Sam. You've 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAeo3hyfxt7I
both agreed to work on the song together, but you can't go on like this.1094Please respect copyright.PENANApvxmYoyPXc
Who knows what may happen if we leave you two alone."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAPBRHH2qNsh
"Tae is right," said Mike. "I don't want to go back home with your beheaded dead body. Mum will kill us."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAcB3qHMDex5
"Okay, fine," I said, rubbing my temples and taking a deep breath. "You're right. Even I can't work like this."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAIPAEiEFPKk
I tried to calm myself 1094Please respect copyright.PENANANY18tmktSY
down, trying to clear my head. I let my anger get the better of me. In 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAOYlGXmKrsk
fact, I couldn't tell if all this was anger or I was just annoyed 1094Please respect copyright.PENANApXUgWyiQmZ
because G-Dragon was acting bigheaded.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAmYaBx7lFyB
"Looks like we will work1094Please respect copyright.PENANAVpf8yRKYVM
on it tomorrow then," said G-Dragon as he slowly got up from his seat. 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA1H7KfRPhfc
And with his hands in the pockets of his jeans, he slowly walked towards1094Please respect copyright.PENANADScDlHMsxp
me.1094Please respect copyright.PENANA6vTcAWVNBM
The last thing I wanted 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAZZA15FAk98
was a face to face confrontation with him because if he was going to do 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAAurHfdscyb
or say something funny, I didn't know what I was going to do. But no. I 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAj833ystioW
wasn't going to let my anger get the better of me again. I didn't want 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAG8eAO4EyFm
to be angry at him. If there was anyone to be angry at, it was myself.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAAlv3BDs9lC
G-Dragon came close and 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAtlMDtZxRMJ
he stared at me with his intimidating eyes. At first, those eyes used to1094Please respect copyright.PENANAQY0bSRNwtj
make me melt like jelly, but now, I couldn't tell where that feeling 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAmGtm8QOi2v
went. Maybe it's because those eyes weren't there to intimidate but they1094Please respect copyright.PENANAcZ1tOqPDio
were full of anger too.1094Please respect copyright.PENANA4oEJUedHJt
He stopped a few inches 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAQfcInjIgGC
away from me and I didn't back away. Earlier on, I would. But this time,1094Please respect copyright.PENANAuALXGYS4lE
I wasn't afraid anymore. I was tired of being scared.1094Please respect copyright.PENANA6nOpTiuS9i
"We'll meet tomorrow soon after practise, capish?" G-Dragon asked.1094Please respect copyright.PENANARbUTRhWhzY
"Capish," I replied, without any hint of emotion.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAw8iHvK2uak
"Good. You better get some aspirin and rest. It looks like your head is about to explode and we don't want that, do we?"1094Please respect copyright.PENANA4zc2GfunUx
"No, we don't."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAQQonvgyMrk
"That's my little 1094Please respect copyright.PENANALQpQLh9zQO
kitty." G-Dragon smiled at me and walked away, our shoulders brushing 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAPjndkyDaRO
each other, and he went out through the door.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAgvyE94pkpC
"Well, that was close," said TOP. "For a second, I thought this whole place was about to blow up."1094Please respect copyright.PENANAYVKlQnKgWp
"Ya, I thought I was going to watch a Mortal Kombart fight," said Mike.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAgfDb1EhrQV
"Seriously? You're 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAQXvz4j3mOU
bringing Mortal Kombart into this?" I asked Mike with my eyebrow raised.1094Please respect copyright.PENANA18Ur9k71pE
Somehow, I wanted to laugh at the joke, but I couldn't.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAQYqDLSIz0A
"Come to think of it," 1094Please respect copyright.PENANATGJ1XnKP14
said Zoey, staring at Mike. "You're right. Remind me of those two 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAnRRAxN2Br8
characters that hate each other so much."1094Please respect copyright.PENANASNKYjTi8X8
"Scorpion and Subzero," said Daniel.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAO963jqMpzj
"So, in this case, Scorpion is G-Dragon," said Seungri, who seemed to be enjoying himself with this.1094Please respect copyright.PENANA0KRw0iGNkx
"Ya, it suits him since Scorpion and dragon kind of go together because of fire," said Daesung.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAQPT2Jdy3nU
"Guys, are you seriously listening to yourselves right now?" I asked.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAoHkSrwTkQy
But no one answered me as they continued their Mortal Kombart fantasy.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAPrNBfNmlRg
"And Sam is Subzero," said Daniel.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAGqREaIJFjn
"Ya, because she is all cool and chilled like ice and doesn't crack under pressure," said TOP.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAzVXFjfNDCW
"True, but also because Subzero is her favourite Mortal Kombart character," said Christine.1094Please respect copyright.PENANA3Qp7icGytu
"Oh, ya, I forgot about that," said Mike.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAkoMlfB67tK
This was getting ridiculous and I shook my head in disbelief.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAsofnRX9Rf9
"So this whole thing is like a fire and ice relationship?" Taeyang asked.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAAygwqPl9Tr
Oh great! Not Taeyang too! The argument G-Dragon and I had created a story in these guy's heads.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAZbvcHdjfGb
"Ya, I'm already 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAB0CjacYXIc
imagining it," said Zoey, staring off into a distance, obviously in her 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA5Vkp6lltfB
imagination. "G-Dragon and Sam, like Scorpion and Subzero."1094Please respect copyright.PENANABFSgtNbry9
"Ya, I can imagine it too," said Mike, also staring off into a distance.1094Please respect copyright.PENANA0d1zQ2X4oU
"Sam looks so hot in her Subzero outfit," said Seungri, also deep in thought and biting his lower lip.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAJ4kljpb2K1
"So hot," said TOP, nodding his head absent mindley.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAnWUcLMtoi9
"So does GD in Scorpion's outfit," said Zoey.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAicse8kqNhk
"Ya, their relationship is now like fire and ice," said Daesung. "Let's just see who wins."1094Please respect copyright.PENANALsL4fhWfwE
As I watched the others 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAQzOz7EUkp2
share out their silly ideas of how the fight would turn out, I couldn't 1094Please respect copyright.PENANApBbcY5BxYU
help but realise that they were right. Right now, GD and I weren't okay 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAR1mqCmrKsb
at all. To the outside world, we were friends, but to ourselves and our 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA8G2qIclPB2
closet friends, we weren't. One moment we were smiling at each other but1094Please respect copyright.PENANA9EzI251Kkf
soon afterwards we were fighting again.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAQm7UzPteQr
I didn't know how all 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA09OsjSdkGP
this was going to end, but if G-Dragon and I didn't resolve our issue 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAmeG2kEOTEk
soon, we might not just hurt each other but also the people around us, 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAJCEqd7INpP
especially our group members. And I wasn't going to let that happen.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAjkuEZKtsGP
If that was the case, I 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAsoPwrZCMo7
had to win this no matter what. I didn't care if I was going to end up 1094Please respect copyright.PENANA4kfG8mN4x0
getting burnt. I created this mess and I had to fix it no matter the 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAOVYNA83PsC
cost. Even if it meant I had to play along like the others. That 1094Please respect copyright.PENANAJVQcyoyKiZ
G-Dragon is Scorpion and I am Subzero.1094Please respect copyright.PENANAeGsfHlOTNZ
That he is fire and I am ice.
