The water felt like a 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ39qmGgYQy2
safe haven and I didn't want to get out. For some reason, it felt so 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ36oR9tSgnU
warm and nice. I didn't want to go above the surface and face all the 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfuE7e5sKOO
troubles out there. But I couldn't stay in water forever. That's 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTgk7nBcJD0
obvious. I didn't want to die in here and sooner or later, I had to 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0nng6WbMHO
breathe. 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfaj5IeLQL4
I pushed myself upwards 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzoERRVKz1
and my head stuck out of the water's surface. I took in a deep breath of1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UPOjTR20B
fresh air and I shook my head to shake the water out of my eyes. I 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kFjtMFbFQ
opened my eyes fully and as I looked around the pool, I swam to the 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7imKfbtn8x
edge.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmoVFHTpFbS
When I finally got myself out, I saw Hyo-rin, Seungri and TOP run towards me. Taeyang and Daesung also appeared.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnFBibK8GZa
"Sam, are you okay?" Hyo-rin asked, when she got closer.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhEbXm5qtQ3
"I've never been better," I answered as I looked at myself.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3USGVOZxiG
I looked ridiculously 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk0joCqi9dq
wet, that's for sure. My clothes felt so heavy. I pulled out my phone 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5mprMoiyZb
from the pocket and it was all wet and ruined. I sucked my teeth in 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ39zjx9Bzcw
irritation. So much for having a cool fancy iPhone only to find it 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Yx9nrVeSt
taking a dive with you into the water. I put my phone back in my wet 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡueK9QQVK2u
pocket. My day couldn't get any better than this.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJe58OQHoYb
I looked around me and 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYq9w3bA5Du
luckily, the little drama I had had with G-Dragon at the top of the 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7lCSHVxrOy
rocks, hadn't caught so many people's attention, but only to a few of 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHn8asMnkVd
those who were in the same pool I had fallen in. That was a relief. The 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cTMfY8MbO
last thing I wanted was to look embarrassed in front of the whole world.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEdGuNyxcNf
"You need a towel," said TOP. "You're soaking wet, and you need a change of clothes too."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVKCXomXVPp
"No need," I said as I started to remove my wet sneakers and water poured out of them. "We've to go."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDUy8BUE83
I heard Zoey and the 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAawv93bQgp
others' laughter and cheering on the other side of the pool. I looked on1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLBkbhDjaZ9
and I saw the others approach G-Dragon after he climbed down the rocks.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWeqysCazpb
They surrounded and cheered for him as though he was a hero. 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ozUnTaiQj
"Sam?" I heard Taeyang's1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnk0TJi4AG3
voice as he held my shoulder. "You don't look okay at all. And you 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyB0FK9YXdG
really need a change of clothes or else you're going to catch a cold."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwTFSRZsiiA
"I already told you, I'm1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMa652XcxB
fine," I said as I slowly brushed off Taeyang's hand from my shoulder. I1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVoEFtsJQcI
didn't want to be rude, but I was so not in the mood for consolation 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvoky2SydYU
from anyone.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42g5f1xTpz
I made my way towards GD1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDy5JdCDaB
and the others, while they were chattering on with excitement over what1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzWHNkfbUm1
had happened. Hyo-rin and the rest followed behind me. As the Toxins 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3kFSVLjgbC
and G-Dragon saw me approach them, Zoey came forward.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8zXv4znKLC
"Oh, man, Sam," said 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBzdxGuv63Y
Zoey, with a ridiculous smile on her face. "You should really see 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgYyXICoX9
yourself. Sorry for all that, but we had to add a little spice to the 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvHxEE78kRD
game. Hope you didn't mind."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaDirg11MSG
"Can we just go back to YG?" I asked, with no hint of emotion on my face. "I've had a long day."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtn7XAkfFM
"Go back to YG?" Zoey asked with a surprised look on her face. "I thought we were going back to the hotel."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5TkSFSFz7T
"I told you, our 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtpb2MayBz
managers need us back there. And as usual, you never listen to me." I 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4SLMyhf6e
rolled my eyes as I soon remembered something. "Speaking of our 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrS2MMqe5E4
managers, Daesung, may I use your phone, please?" I looked over at 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVYUgS61xvc
Daesung.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSzspzwe8hl
"Ya, sure," said Daesung, as he gave it to me.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8WgA9pqChy
I dialled Lee's number 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMik5vi6Dq
and I placed the phone to my ear. The Toxins and G-Dragon looked on at 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbvxxCTRlua
me, clueless. They were obviously wondering why I was making a call. 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJgOaLQCOf
They would know soon enough.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIh28YsIeNm
"Hello?" came Lee's voice at the other end of the line.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHefdH1V0G
"Lee, it's Sam," I answered.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8OXLyPwG6z
"Sam, thank goodness, you called. Did you find them?"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvvGO3E9thg
"Ya, I found them," I said, as I looked on at the culprits in front of me. "Do our managers know anything?"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdO79gf8hvD
"No, not yet. But you 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBhgBF2liT
better get back here quick. I can't keep them locked up much longer. And1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGW7ClSsqJ6
the press have been waiting for you, so you better hurry."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa15z75WBFa
"We'll be there in thirty minutes."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB0ug0obuFX
"Okay, I'll be waiting."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQT0ov1eYo
I cut the call and gave Daesung his phone back.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZHNinzFSvU
"Wait, Sam, what's going on?" Daniel asked. "Why were you talking to Lee? Is something wrong?"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1cmL7KtPO
"Everything is wrong," I answered, trying to keep my cool. "I'll tell you later. We better go now."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNsO9Kyupmo
"At least tell us what's going on," said Christine. 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobrozGZQQK
"It's best we get to YG first," said Seungri. "We're wasting a lot of time here."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDq65Sh59V
"Come on. You heard Seungri, we don't have much time," I said.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhxAkEQfGzV
"But you better change your clothes first," said Zoey. "You know you easily catch a cold. At least get a towel to dry yourself."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXaozywU56Q
I shook my head. I was 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGxDJkHOVC
really on the edge of losing my temper. But I quickly took in a deep 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtou8WGJWF
breath and started to walk away from the pool and the others in my bare 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76c7ScddNU
wet feet and carrying my wet sneakers.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCoDVd5x6Wv
After walking a few feet1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEj3zbBri8n
away, I looked behind me and the others just stared at me, with 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiih15Bc2Zd
surprised and confused looks on their faces. The last thing I wanted was1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCAll8JqOB
for them to just stand there because they would end up grabbing other 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ797SWADNpz
people's attention which I was highly trying to avoid.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaFBoVPR7KB
"Aren't you coming or are you going to run off so that I go looking for you again?" I asked.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡElk0LOBJRI
None of them answered as1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxIDrrGTKG
they all started walking towards me and walked past heading for the 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDsY4RR6jSO
exit. I stayed for a few minutes from where I stood as I watched them 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEmsPs0U7Ha
go, except for TOP, who came to stand beside me.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4Zul0Eot6
"Don't say a word, please," I said as I turned to look at him.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamajEy2OdR
"I wasn't going to say 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXmLDzjREM
anything, apparently," said TOP. "I know you're angry and the last thing1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkdTR4HzQr
you would want to hear from me is advice."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrGkMZE0tnq
I turned to look the other way as I now felt a little guilty. 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡatNigYvBWZ
"Was I harsh on them?" I asked quietly.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItGN9W22js
"To be honest, you did the best you could not to let your anger get the best of you."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRyIouRbQzm
"I'm still upset, though."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZnr1szPVV
"And that's normal. They will understand. You're human too."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9Y9qiecq6
"Thanks, TOP." I said, trying to put up a smile. "Sorry for being harsh on you earlier."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzdH2mxtgfp
"It's okay. You guys go on ahead. I'll go get changed and I'll catch up with you later."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbLO9cdQbl
I gave TOP an assuring 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDGKs4gWNE
nod and he gave me a pat on my shoulder and walked away. I was on my way1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVLGOJ752A
again and I found myself outside the indoor water park. I saw the 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtIqP2eSNIc
others ahead of me and I kept my distance. I was still soaking wet and I1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9vcxlj4a93
started to shiver. It was now in the afternoon but the sun still didn't1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHIXFO5upmN
seem to warm me up as I expected it to. It was hot, yes, but I still 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBDN3wnUtE
felt cold because of my dripping clothes.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlE5jxbjJEw
We all found ourselves 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNPd1JA40VM
back at the back gate of the water park. I found G-Dragon and the Toxins1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBkpj1CZd6
all settled in G-Dragon's car. Daesung, Seungri, Hyo-rin and Taeyang 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe90Pa6fC66
were waiting for me. 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRcSmk2EiZc
"Hey, Sam, you don't 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwp9Y9t0m7M
mind if I ride along with you, Daesung and Seungri, do you?" Hyo-rin 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLVu0wW1fiz
asked as she approached me to keep the others out of ear shot.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYM7Nf2WTAD
"I'll ride with Tae, he shouldn't be alone," I said, giving Hyo-rin a small smile. "Don't worry about it."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ZVmeIa8yP
Hyo-rin gave me a kind 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI60nGxTbt0
smile and I looked on as she settled in with Daesung and Seungri in the 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlp0RSuZxw1
car. G-Dragon's car took off first, then Daesung's. I continued to watch1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQc1lBl4Dze
on as the two cars left the premises and all I did was stand in the 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0HAlUcNIF
sun, trying to take in the warmth, but still shivering like a leaf.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNxHQMs67IJ
I had my eyes closed 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzKiFrZXC0A
when I felt something warm on my shoulders. I opened my eyes and I found1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8gaLrlTpw
Taeyang wrap his warm coat around me.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4MgFDzYOH3
"You're really shivering," said Taeyang. "Let's hope you don't get..."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoAMyMgpU9U
Before he could finish his sentence, I sneezed.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKoZiAcmPCF
"....a cold," said Taeyang, rolling his eyes at me. "Nice one, Sam. Now our managers will get pissed for sure."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5lfQmjRJHq
"Don't worry, it's just a small sneeze," I said as I sniffed. "I'll be fine by tomorrow."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjOWvSWWMBA
"Let's hope so. Come on, we better get going."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2jHEG00UP
Taeyang led me to his 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfxbyGx9HuA
car and he helped me open the door to the passenger's seat. We were on 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfREO96tuXj
the road in no time, and as I sat in the car, I still felt cold that 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjaHst8vfx
Taeyang had to turn the heater on.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUJF6uelzI
In about thirty minutes,1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8Aj0Gs2hB
we were back in Seoul and back in the YG premises. I found the others 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCzz0vXWhR
all waiting for us at the front entrance of the building. Taeyang and I 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIfsU329579
got out of the car and walked up to them. I led them in, still barefoot 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlzzVSipx9L
and surprisingly at the same time, Collins, Yang Hyun-suk and Lee 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHIougAENS
appeared out of the elevator.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgePFZqxKEf
"Where have you guys been?" Collins asked, as they approached us. "And why do you look so wet, Sam?"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOeKe8Sp8B
"We went to Caribbean Bay," I answered.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRbCKkDO88
Lee who stood behind 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPhKR6iqZc
Collins gave me a funny startled look. She probably thought I was going 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcC7xYoRqJn
to make up some kind of a lie to cover up for the others. But I had 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgfWyYm47Bb
other things in mind.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYDY43Y3pt
"Caribbean Bay?" Yang Hyun-suk looked surprised. "We had things to sort out here and you went to have fun?"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYr9qlyKZZD
Yang Hyun-suk sounded a 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0E5HeBlnZh
little harsh and the rest of us were quiet. I could feel the atmosphere 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPLxV6KrHd
behind me grow tense as no one said a word.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDxznmlDXZv
"Well, is anyone going to say anything?" Yang Hyun-suk asked.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRg8ENlSGjl
"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."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5RhlLg2wbg
There was an awkward 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnfh4ojv6Kb
silence as I felt all eyes on me. Their eyes felt like piercing needles,1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXnVYufE1r
but I had to ignore the feeling and carry on.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡurFoaGbUTB
"What do you mean?" Collins asked.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmxIQsp7nc
"Well, I hear the press 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwKGv9Ckfc9
are here," said Sam. "And I bet they are here over the video of G-Dragon1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtucsJbIVNi
and I. I'll tell you everything from there."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRBHCl3rYc6
"That won't be 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUs2YrKe46n
necessary," said Yang Hyun-suk. "We can do all of that tomorrow or some 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvMOFxEPxE
other day. You look all beat and I don't think it will be appropriate to1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWlaBGj40D
go to the press looking all wet."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKuq9bszXsJ
I breathed out a sigh of1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6Hz8tVuZ7
relief. Things were simply going the way I thought they would. I just 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZKbOMI2Vq1
hoped that what I was going to do next would work out too.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh76uRcWg4w
"In the meantime, you go1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6jnaGdWdP
to the hotel and get freshened up," said Collins. "We will talk later 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡofW6Q7rJBw
on in the evening and you will tell us all about it."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhshsJ5m4rm
I nodded my head in 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUWnopZqIh
agreement. Well, that was a relief. I seriously needed a change of 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCyU6oHB760
clothes as I felt myself shiver vigorously.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4eozQyzjVC
"Come, I'll drive you to the hotel," said Taeyang.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8QFtDvLQ9
"Alright," I said 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyu1r3fLBsF
quietly, as I looked up at Lee. She seemed really frightened. The last 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡISwKMCOFEN
thing she wanted was for all of us to get into trouble and it seems like1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwTAHSpRJZ
I was only making things worse.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHs9YX3a89
Before I turned to leave1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNU4GKzoq3M
with the rest of the group, I gave Lee a wink, assuring her that 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsyLZPnkZLM
everything was going to be alright and that she should trust me on this 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmsIqwKo1i
one.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZv8cxeyZ7J
***1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGTOqbvM9QJ
I sat on the couch all 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEZmkLXnwK
wrapped up in a blanket, coughing and sniffing like crazy as I continued1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTx50Gg1f0
staring at the TV. I was watching a K-drama series, "Boys over flowers"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsAaNdH6fu3
and I was really enjoying it, despite being down with a cold. 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBNDJsL4gt
I had a box of paper 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4gNirfzUr
tissues right beside me and a plastic containing the ones I had blown my1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0R9RfqKxc
nose on on my other side. Disgusting, I know, but hey, it was only a 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4SKztdqh9
cold and there was nothing I could do about it.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8lOKPWXc70
I continued watching the1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW1TuShySkO
series when the waiter came in to bring in my warm chicken soup and 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtj90CwA592
announced that Taeyang had come to see me.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJCYCgoCrW
"Hey, how are you doing?" Taeyang asked after the waiter gave me the soup and left while he came in.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGcvOJhOyw
"Never better," I said, 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdlcOhAv7i
sounding funny with a blocked nose. "Take a seat, please. Not too close 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQRztuHD45
to me though, I don't want you to catch my cold."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1IiMJ5vOv
"I wasn't even going to try," Taeyang took a couch right next to mine, but far away from me as possible.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2LTR4NGrz1
"So, watching k-drama, huh?" Taeyang asked as he looked at the flat screen TV on the wall.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXYH6GVOOX
"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.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9GTn9fOIs
"And the others?" 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD7r94lcbQa
When Taeyang meant the "others," I knew he meant The Toxins. I just rolled my eyes and continued staring at the TV.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjZ8wBY1y7u
"As usual, they went for practise two hours ago," I answered, not sounding like I cared.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFnmsUV9DFS
"Are you still mad at them?" Taeyang asked.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKgEFSCPmwX
I got the remote and paused the TV. I couldn't catch up with reading the subtitles and Taeyang's question just confused me.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlnx0uLrkRC
"I don't know," I said, staring at my soup.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wGFhh9iuu
"You don't know or you are?"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQplL3kFwDa
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.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcj13GqPBaV
"I don't know, Tae," I 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6yJQxK71Ed
answered. "I'm still upset with all of them, but another part of me is 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmkKEh9zH1m
telling me that I won't stay that way for long and I should just try to 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjbu76ijQM
forget all that happened yesterday."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5yvU9NY0S8
"Ya, I understand. They 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjBcWfNZAsE
never listened to you and you had to carry on with their game. And in 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwZuBhZhSt
the end, you take the blame because you knew how angry our managers were1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQCLpc8cbQ
going to get."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEdsAPVKNZ3
I looked on at Taeyang 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsIeon42vgq
as I sniffed. He was right. Yesterday was tough, and coming up with a 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg2k6rjmEPo
plan to help the others get out of trouble was even tougher when you 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWn6GwcSXDG
know you weren't only dealing with Collins, but also with Yang Hyun-suk 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxWJrIFGoed
who was as tough as nails.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrIb4GTFYej
Last night, I took the 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKztmCUXGj
blame and told our two managers that I was the one who decided that we 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHvrpliECSW
should all go out and the others had nothing to do with it. I told them 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp5EO0NCXOX
that the others had insisted on working on the song, but I was the one 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAaNxJmkn4p
who objected and made everyone do whatever they wanted. 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNOL44zfc9
Apparently, the managers1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7GjgVljz8
weren't that mad at me at all. If I hadn't lied on their part, they 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwJILuKNkpo
would've been way mad at the others instead. They were glad I had bought1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDoFlF9yMi
these guys back on time without creating much of a scene on social 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFeWF1JUTTJ
media. Luckily, only a few people had taken pictures of us. Most people 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5iZjj9tODM
on social media were even surprised that BigBang and The Toxins were at 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVIV78QTQf
Caribbean Bay. Well, at least my plan worked out. What I was truly 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmTbV7STym
avoiding, was grabbing too much attention from our fans, the paparazzi 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8O8eo0xNl4
and the reporters.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKsXl9UtlBB
After my confrontation 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZN77Y25Pwv
with our managers, I went straight to bed without talking to anyone and I1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡviXa5NBm4E
didn't have supper. One, I was totally beat from all that had happened,1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3mTAqW59s
and two, I just didn't feel like talking to anyone.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKurpPh1IpC
"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."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkYh6V2i7KH
"Ya, what happened was kind of dramatic," said Taeyang.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoDy094fwcE
"You saw that?" I looked surprised. "I thought you came later on when I fell into the pool."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSJj63rOnZ
"No, Daesung and I arrived when you got to the top."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe318uI3cxV
"Oh," I sniffed and coughed. "Ya, it was kind of dramatic."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡehBKDOzrGD
"Have you tried talking to GD?"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6bRTZIIIAx
"To be honest, I haven't1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgJMknJyum
even tried. I don't even want to see nor talk to him. I would probably 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡluXmlAUiUf
slap him in the face if I see him."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc83YX4n1FW
"I don't doubt that."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSRpQfMss3o
"And thank goodness my 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzBIbZC7x0
new phone isn't coming in until late in the afternoon. I wouldn't like 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1BNTnv12lx
anyone calling me trying to tell me how sorry they are. Right now, all I1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2KvqYGoXr
want to do is watch some TV."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOedY757pIL
I quickly drank my 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGGZqHdIVj
chicken soup from the bowl. And my goodness, the cooks here really knew 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9WODHo38b
how to make lovely soup. I would probably order for it again if I had 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvVEPHp5ZD
to.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbBoheWkGl1
"So, how are you and Hyo-rin?" I asked, after putting the bowl aside.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhOihWX1b9u
"Still not talking to each other," Taeyang amswered as he leaned back on the couch and stared at the ceiling.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxTgYgZzhK
"Looks like I'm not the only one not talking to people, aren't I?"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhU4RxQYnAQ
"Nope."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNWItErcHG
I stared at Taeyang as he continued to look at the ceiling as I thought of what to say or ask next.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoP6LeCE5CO
"What really happened to you two yesterday?" I asked.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8yHLKc2EQv
Taeyang didn't say 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkYpr14P3dC
anything at first. Then he breathed out heavily and said, "what happened1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmakWDE0oeU
to us happens to every other couple, Sam."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkVlBNOnDd
"I know you fought or 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh7VLT8y6JV
probably had an argument. I just want to know what it was all about. 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zlo8QsMW3
That's if you're willing to tell me. I won't push you if you don't."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeENfX6aqJy
I noticed Taeyang smile 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZQYK3Wyhf
while he continued to look upwards. It was probably over what I had 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUmxpnXAa0
said. I was not one who liked to push people over talking about their 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwf59SuGkZD
problems. I wasn't like Zoey who always got away with such things.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw1D8TDLdNn
"Aren't you going to say anything?" I asked Taeyang who continued to smile.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxAmKQoFOxd
"I'm just wondering why some things you wish for never come to pass."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDm5u9VE8y
I raised an eyebrow this time around. Was he diverting the question or was he talking in riddles now?1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLCeYsc3Nd
"I thought I was the only one who is sick today," I said rolling eyes.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW9PfquI16A
"Don't mind what I just said," said Taeyang, as he looked at me. "It's nothing."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQdh60S3ZwM
"Mmm, figured. If you don't want to say anything, it's fine by.."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ037h0guzzM
Before I could finish my1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPtPq47Bcre
sentence, I sneezed. Like, really loud. There was silence at first 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4GH5mSHZXx
until Taeyang started laughing at me while I blew my nose with a tissue.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR569xEou6h
"It's not funny, Tae," I said furrowing my eyebrows and threw the used up tissue in the plastic.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhcy4ugK8pN
"You sound funny when you sneeze. That's why I laughed," said Taeyang, giving me his eye smile.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0uWcY6A8ek
"Well, it's good I made you laugh then. Just like me, you haven't been smiling at all since yesterday."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXfbAgvp3R
"Looks like the two of us really have a lot in common when things don't go our way."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJTyoNUJ5R
"Yep, cheers to that." 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwympTYKI0J
"So, have you thought of any lyrics for the song yet?" Taeyang asked.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8htfLa6Xz
I slapped my face. I had completely forgot about the song since I was running up and down the whole of yesterday.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6E712xxrBu
"I completely forgot," I said, as I sniffed. "Weren't you guys supposed to work on it today?"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8F7qStBno8
"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."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktRFQOGSbK
"Don't mention his name because I feel like breaking something."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXIqL00s6Gp
"Wow, that sounds personal."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYOKZ7ZCZw3
"Ya," I nodded my head. "It really is."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDON5ySKtZI
"Then how are the two of you going to work on the lyrics if you're still angry at him?"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnvzyG6Q1dl
"I think I've a better 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkNWuHJ9xY
idea. Let's all just work on the song together. I may be the songwriter 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡirRF7k2Ay0
in my group, but I always give a chance for others to bring in their 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6a1G1ST0pS
lyrics. It's better that way."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡagU7psoVlv
"That's not a bad idea. Aren't you going to tell GD about it?"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwP6gXM2bpG
"Uh, no. Until I'm no longer mad at him, you will have to act as my middle man."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNfGUJuhu1
"Me? Your middle man?" Taeyang burst into a fit of laughter. "That's going to be classic."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25swYGvxlW
"You should be honoured. Most people would die just to be my middle man."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpEASACXTdt
"I wouldn't. FYI, I'm a pop star just like you and people would die just the same."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ27xJElhkBJ
"Haha, good point."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGe889NhuPL
Taeyang and I continued 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡov4ftZSg13
to talk for a good thirty minutes and it was so much fun. I was glad he 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvnfs76iQO
came to see me because life tends to be boring sometimes when you're 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwnn2VQUwh
alone. Apart from talking about the events that took place yesterday, we1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDpcUGmI6OQ
talked about other fun things concerning our personal lives. Mostly 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsdAEq923uO
focusing on the funny things that goes on whenever we were with your 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xpDUvqtKw
group members. I mostly talked about Zoey, since she always creates 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvmylpRd11s
drama in my life, while Taeyang talked about Seungri, who always got 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJjtaIuPBa
into trouble since he was the "maknae" (막내) (youngest) in the group.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52Qtbo4pBW
While the two of us were1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMb3MCSGuv
laughing after Taeyang finished telling me a funny story about Seungri,1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡver0SAJudJ
I received a phone call from the hotel land line. 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSpPiP6rjpd
I quickly went over to 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVFHcg3s5A
the phone, trying to calm myself after laughing so much. Luckily, it was1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRfrXikHvqW
just the receptionist downstairs, informing me that Seungri and Daesung1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCHcqOS73cv
had come to visit. I told the receptionist to tell them that they could1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGjtv5hlsT6
come up and I put the receiver down.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvhfVQG3n3
"Speaking of the devil," I said as I passed Taeyang, going back to my seat, "he is here with Daesung."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22kLprh4QL
"Seungri is here? Well, that's a surprise."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNUtFvLoXXE
"I'm not," I said shrugging my shoulders. "He's obviously here to check up on me, since he calls me his panda."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15pDlCZk6V
"Trust me, you're one of his many pandas," said Taeyang, as he smiled.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9tWE02RZCP
"Shut up, Tae!" I threw a pillow at him and he blocked it as he raised his arm.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb11hZzDaud
"Eww, that pillow 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhKOOThy33
probably has your germs on it," said Taeyang, as he disgustingly looked 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6W9lGQ45T
at the pillow I had thrown at him on the floor.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9p3I9P6e4g
"You're welcome," I said with a devious smile on my face.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1aowZuxGI
A few seconds later, we 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9wUua9unAt
heard the sound of the elevator then Seungri and Daesung appeared into 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXIKWRfCo2n
the lounge. Seungri was holding a huge stuffed panda and Daesung was 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJWIgoVbBy
holding a box of chocolates.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQeKKFRO3v8
"Awww, is that for me?" I asked as I turned on the couch to face them.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxdd90JZwf
"Ah, no, the panda is a 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbs8Uni8Y8N
very good friend of mine and just came along to see the famous B.K who 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46JTIHINbk
is sick," said Seungri. Daesung and Taeyang burst out laughing at the 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVXTgug6ga
same time.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc0rX0Mt1kh
"Very funny, Seungri," I said, as I frowned at him. "Give him to me, I want to hug him."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9duHOb4EID
"And give him your cold? No ways," said Seungri, hugging and holding onto the panda.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKmf5wW0hX
"Do you really want me to come over there and fight for it?"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJKEf3Pf0O
"I would give the lady the panda if I were you, Seungri," said Taeyang. "You wouldn't want to see her nasty side."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx8dIoIiPcV
"Hey, I don't have a nasty side," I said, as I looked at Taeyang.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWVlW3BA7sz
"Everybody has one," said Taeyang, shrugging his shoulders.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5xNuk5W58
"Never mind that," said Daesung, "just give her the panda, Seungri."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7frNuYVHb
"Really? But he'll be scared without me," said Seungri, still holding onto the panda.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVdIpUvFw3
"For goodness sake, I 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDMYJCxcpk
know the panda is mine," I said. "And besides, we ladies are good with 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvpD33lOtoC
handling cute and cuddly stuff. Mr Panda won't ever feel lonely or 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡepWgIVaC4y
scared with me."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUNcgv9U2Xb
"Ya, I know he won't," said Seungri with a smile as he walked over to me and gave me the panda.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡki3oGzKocU
I took the panda in my 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVXsjegKx7a
arms and I hugged and cuddled it as though I was a little girl who just 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYSvFArJ4VM
got her doll for the first time. It was so soft and fuzzy that for a 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWtredera0
moment, it felt like a warm pillow I could sleep on. The new smell of 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpTNU59rL6C
the panda triggered my nose though, and I sneezed so loud, yet again.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYviCGNpuSs
"My goodness, Mr Panda would need a doctor," said Seungri. "You're gonna get him sick."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTdAKYM2hJ
"He's officially mine now," I said as I sniffed. "We're going to be the best of besties."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxayUvNn3cv
"Whatever, just take good care of him for me, okay?"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6E3BkJvL1
"I will," I said with a smile as I cuddled the panda in my arms.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJsARycKMT0
"I got you some chocolates," said Daesung, as he handed over the box of chocolates to me. "Every girl's favourite treat."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW4gwEqXCgH
"Aww, thanks Daesung," I1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVNh8e3k7Gj
said as I smiled at him and I felt myself blush when I remembered what 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDwFF8xWow
happened between him and I yesterday at the park. "That's so sweet of 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB19hsnm3du
you. See, Seungri, you should be a little bit more like him."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtCKD4kbs1q
"What did I do?" Seungri asked looking surprised. "I bought you a panda."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlq8jNcBDR7
"Never mind, come take a seat, please," I said. "It's good you two came to see me."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgs8gtskiyh
"Are you feeling any better?" Daesung asked as he and Seungri sat on the other couch opposite Taeyang.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwEFRVqLha
"Well, I'm not really feeling that sick," I said, as I sniffed. "I'll be fine tomorrow, you'll see."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb5ZTPEBbmt
"I doubt that," Taeyang blurted out.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKy1meTAuRr
"Ah, put a sock in it, Tae!" I said angrily. "You really know how to make me feel bad."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxzmx592CLN
"Ya, I do."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQy3baDnz1
While the four of us 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDzmu5XWYb
were chatting and Seungri kept on pulling funny faces at me every now 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8HtBwOOmsE
and then, just to make me laugh, The Toxins arrived. At first I didn't 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCKdsozqmxg
notice since I was laughing so much, until Daesung looked behind me and 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrEldiEI6B
said:1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9m0VJI0l0d
"Hey, Zoey." 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS153dq4MQw
I stopped laughing automatically and I turned to looked behind me. Zoey was standing in the passage with her training bag. 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkBHWToKeTQ
"Hey," Zoey replied. "I was wondering why there was laughter when we came in."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFAgGXYvs9
"We came to see how Sam was doing," said Taeyang.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZTHNNVByWI
"It's good you came to 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2DfSNfWwM5
keep her company while we were gone." Zoey turned to look at me, but I 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsbGasOTlxy
quickly turned away, putting myself back in my usual position on the 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgd85Mj9WV
couch.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEFUMD1VfO
"Hey, what's with all the laughter?" came Mike's voice. "Oh, you guys are here, that's great!"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMKVnFv6UE
"Who's here?" Christine asked, also joining the others. "Hey, guys!"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡftnbqXxcec
"Hey, how was practise?" Daesung asked.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgTTMG72rfS
"Tiring as usual," I heard Daniel reply. 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQu2Bo1qGw0
"We will just put our stuff away and join you in a second," said Zoey.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3njf8foGVD
"Ya, please do, it will be so much fun," said Seungri.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWdSOFzWCQJ
I tugged at my panda's 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZFOYSsJWum
ear absentmindley as I felt Taeyang's eyes on me. I looked at him and it1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLOrG6dQYRI
was obvious he could read my mind. I was still not in a mood to talking1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZd577uVNm
to the other Toxins, and I so much as wanted as to leave the room.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1qFOv8t2kD
The Toxins came back to 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBIN9MHG1Ag
the lounge area. Zoey sat next to me and I moved away from her as I held1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxYCMf9CG3
my panda like it was the only thing that ever mattered to me. Christine1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcMI0v3LFTj
went to join Seungri and Daesung, while Mike and Daniel joined Taeyang.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhyKEjheFa
For a moment, no one 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5jZWoIT3LN
said a word to each other. There was silence. As for me, I kept on 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8TlKhMNTgb
tugging at the panda's ear still not looking at Zoey.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlaPczA4ZFZ
"Oh, Sam, you've a panda," said Daniel, breaking the silence.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡExRo5YE8BO
"Ah huh," I replied dully. 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqMps0qVlR
"I got it for her," said Seungri, with a smile.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtS3ws3rkt6
"Aww, it's so cute," said Christine. "You should get me one just like that someday."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEIVsxBsLZ
I stared up at the 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb1dSfEjvlP
ceiling and then at the panda. I got the box of chocolates that were 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dWS3hcSwj
next to me, opened it and put a piece of chocolate in my mouth.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡae9iUrUkjJ
"And she also has chocolates too," said Zoey. "I also want some."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVyEmBRXiMy
When Zoey tried to reach1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9XGLDsk8ct
out for chocolates, I lifted the box and took it to my other side to 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhRrpcTqvL
prevent her from getting any. I looked at her as I furrowed my eyebrows.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpOQFZ9sex
"Sorry, I should have asked," said Zoey.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqtHpK0Tg6p
"Ya, you should have!" I snapped at her.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8vYjqFbuE
Zoey looked hurt with 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNX0mGf5x0E
the way I responded to her, but at the moment, it didn't even matter. I 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ZqhQOLlli
turned to face the other way sucking at the chocolate in my mouth.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKlpL1wdIo
"Are you still mad at us?" Zoey asked.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRuuTPs6VHE
I didn't answer as I put1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkmnQIULE5H
another piece of chocolate in mouth. My silence was an obvious answer. I1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNIQu7b2jEX
was still mad, especially at Zoey.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMIcLRHy99
"I know it's a little 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSh1oWiSgqq
late to say this," started Zoey. "But we're really sorry for what 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlP6MAVLq4v
happened yesterday. Yes, we didn't listen to you as always and we're 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyVd8ePeVyM
sorry for that too. You even took the blame for us. And I know it 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFn4wlKSrX
doesn't look like we appreciate what you do for us, but we really do. 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQaHgpZa0Z
You've saved our necks a number of times before from Collins, but this 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb4BJvZE9VS
time you had to deal with Yang Hyun-suk too."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnXtStl1KSd
I stared at the ceiling as I sucked at the chocolate in my mouth as though I wasn't listening.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvE4ddDckkt
"I don't like it when 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKXdqFB2Cb5
you're not talking to me," Zoey continued. "And last night when you 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0eSvqtWTL8
didn't say a word, I knew you were going to give us the silent 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3XJ1icMGLJ
treatment. You know you're my best friend and my only source of 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Xyq9C0ypD
happiness everyday. You know I'm not myself without you. I'm really 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxItqo0gcp
sorry, Sam."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrwSZ44c02U
"We're all sorry, Sam," said Daniel. "I know you're hurt real bad because of our silly actions yesterday."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhWn8pqrO8q
"I'm sorry too," said 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡburTW4zPT3
Mike. "I should have acted like the responsible one, but we all know 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjMOKQ49Jwf
that's not the case. You really saved us yesterday and all we want is 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDUm6rUO7r
for you to talk to us again."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ5tbCwyEBd
"I'm also sorry, Sam," 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmHeMfFnVAf
said Christine. "We might say 'we won't do it again,' but we keep on 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKPRrzX5UfF
doing the same thing. We can't do anything without you. You're our 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjh7CE2y2V
leader."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE7TFua689A
I still didn't say a 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmiVqPHrxuS
word to them as I continued to stare upwards. I knew it would come to 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcw1fp0Eqok
this, them saying that they were sorry. My hatred for them wasn't going 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHJ8UZmTPu
to last forever and I knew that very well. They were family and I loved 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy4aTwg4vM2
them despite the awful things they put me through.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb1VVm7jdey
"Aren't you going to say something, Sam?" Taeyang asked. 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4wuzwZ3Et
"And what should I say?" I asked. "They know completely well that I can't stay mad at them forever, so...."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpakAAk3Eo0
"Wait, you're not mad any more?" Zoey asked, with a little hint of excitement in her voice.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXCcDzOHfNB
I sighed deeply and I turned to face Zoey. And I each gave the other Toxins a look as well.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJxZoaIxNQP
"I'm mad and pretty much1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKL1Ttsw9Y
angry with all of you," I said. "But it's obvious I can never stay mad 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPZyZz4yE3
at you forever. So, yes, I forgive you."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWmJTJDaRy
"Seriously, you mean it?" Daniel asked.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaZQKhQc6Gd
I sniffed and said, "ya, I mean it."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQf93FUWJT
"Aww, I love you, Sam!" Zoey exclaimed as she tried to come close to hug me.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwLRWnWxq4
"Whoa! Back up!" I said 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbiz0sHZ0kD
with my hands raised to stop her from getting any closer to me. "I've a 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYanKQV9yqu
cold. Just because I forgive you, doesn't mean you can hug me."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1p30MzOwnF
"Ah, you! Always acting 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0KmnJsjaP
like you don't want a hug. Come here!" Zoey wrapped her arms around me 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJ27NeyniY
and hugged me. "Your cold isn't that contagious and I don't care if I 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzo6UyVQAk
catch it anyway."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRXuTedY9I
Christine, Daniel and 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡloW6x8jant
Mike also came over and we were all hugging each other on the couch. 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPeaurPQq6
Even the panda got caught up in the hug. It was kind of nice and I 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXgInZMIn3
smiled. I completely wasn't mad at them any more, that's for certain.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ44wZIl3Ey7
"Aww, let me take a pic of this beautiful moment," said Deasung as he pulled out his phone and took a photo.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcYe3IiuS8W
"I'm glad you guys finally resolved things ," said Taeyang.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4vaJcppN6
"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...."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXSwr8TtQUA
I sneezed and the other Toxins quickly withdrew their arms around me and looked on as though I was contagious.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzmiZT61bk1
"Excuse me," I said as I got a tissue and blew my nose. "I just can't help myself."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfkF9KSFxr
"Don't worry, you won't 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvC6s2i8wlX
help yourself laughing once you see this pic," said Daesung, as he 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JE3wjzbvu
looked at his phone with a smile on his face.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtSHiDOl8r8
"Please don't tell me you captured me sneezing," I rolled my eyes when I obviously knew the answer.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYCqgtNLo3
"Ya, he did," said Seungri, with a smirk on his face.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAyyTGheUkg
"Never mind. It's almost lunch time and I'm starving," I said. "What can we order for lunch?"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvIXqP9LLo4
"I'm glad you asked," said Zoey. "You just sit back and relax, my hungry kitty. We already have lunch covered."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq263REomDV
"What do you mean?" I asked, looking at Zoey with an eyebrow raised.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5GavaNwRLz
"We thought of having a special lunch just for you since you were so mad at us," said Daniel. 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡulBDnQGSlt
"Well, that's interesting," said Taeyang. "Weren't you going to invite us as well?"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDwziJtSS7x
"Well, ya, but surprisingly you brought yourselves here," said Zoey. "We were about to call you as soon as we arrived."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxmO0Ew6dG
"We already called the others so, no need," said Mike.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmWYovEfCYd
At that moment, I had 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLtb5ez9mL
put in another piece of chocolate in my mouth and I almost choked on it.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwss5hYyYpi
Mike who was the closet to me patted my back.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdWa5BBjLe
"Hey, are you okay?" he asked.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgaykwN3ygE
"I'm fine, I guess," I said, as I held my throat.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29yMgrpwhO
"This is what happens when you don't share chocolates," said Zoey. "Here, I'll help you."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlAudsCo4vr
Zoey got the box of 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWPfG5oU3dF
chocolates and Christine went to sit next to Zoey to eat them while I 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWwVfXwvtt
continued rubbing my throat, deep in thought.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLLK6gjdoo
"Can you excuse me for a second?" I asked as I got up from the couch with my panda and left the room.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2aE4r2LNtk
I was in the passage as I1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs5LMyrSvgz
leaned on the wall, close to the door of the room Zoey and I were 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4apAdiyH3
sleeping in. I held the panda in my arms and hugged it tightly. I sighed1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNk6beRQhwS
in what felt like sadness.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwRIqlJd2A4
"You aren't okay, again, aren't you?" came Taeyang's voice behind me.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLZcKBwqVk
I sniffed and without facing him said, "you already know. I don't have to say anything."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpJAZglvSkM
I heard his footsteps 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsS9cMMX4o6
and I knew he was coming closer. He also leaned his back against the 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWtdvN5mTHP
wall as he stood right next to me and I heard him sigh.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjV7SNKsisu
"Are you really going to stay mad at GD for long?" he asked.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF20Tg35jaN
"And are you going to do the same with Hyo-rin?" I also asked.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdgfYu2ScQd
"Are we really do this right now?"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KD77BJYuO
"Do you want us to continue making each other feel bad about yourselves?" 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcnx2RIoQY
Taeyang chuckled silently and I smiled, still not looking at him.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4X1aW8pVM
"This isn't working, is it?" Taeyang asked.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8081JsJTk
"Nope." 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP5WHfIS9aD
I heard Taeyang take in another deep breath and said, "I really admire you, Sam."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrdvx33Zb9
My eyes almost felt like1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmt4f1KgEo
they would pop out of their sockets. He admired me? Like how? Admiring 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrWFA38JleF
meant a lot of things. And right now I felt really confused.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw51H9cVxZP
I turned to look at him 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7HIH2pieoF
and I found him staring at me. He gave me a simple smile and I didn't 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwvA3IQVun7
know where to begin to ask what he truly meant.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcEttRPFLLV
"I....uh, what do you, uh.... mean when you said you admired me?" I asked as I stammered.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUVK0YSsBP
"That you're surrounded 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfuaGrcVKat
by such amazing people in your life that you're even able to forgive 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP19X0rYjo5
them despite you getting hurt by them," he answered. "I admire that 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzSyFZxSwfd
you've such a good heart. You don't seem to hold grudges for long."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYCfI6hRmB
"A good heart? Really? I don't think so. If it's anyone with a good heart it's you, Tae, not me." 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdhrg9AdGzk
"Then if you can see that in me, I can also see that in you."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3zFie1SXJ
I sighed and I gave Taeyang a stern eye. "So what's your point?"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE8svToJDCV
"That you also shouldn't stay mad at GD."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAaKv2A0Hs
"Tae, you don't know how I felt yesterday when he betrayed me and left me dangling on the cliff for my life."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNx5k1NJlSr
Taeyang raised an eyebrow at me. "You felt betrayed?"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJcceCu1O3Z
"Well, ya." I shrugged my shoulders. "What GD did to me wasn't.....It was so not....."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Lwhbao91J
Apparently, I couldn't 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15r78YZC6n
seem to find the right words. I didn't even realise how I felt when I 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7RZeeOnmH
talked about this to Taeyang. On one hand I was confused and on the 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh20243sRVi
other, I was still mad I could break something. I was even squeezing my 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYOBUGFT8xu
panda tightly. If it were a live animal, I would have choked it to 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjlip2dKPxv
death.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5i0UePCIoi
Taeyang still looked at me with his eyebrow raised and I didn't like that he wasn't saying anything.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtL1eDhkXxd
"Aren't you going to say anything, Tae?" I asked, sounding frustrated. "Don't look at me like that."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIxPsAP0B8
Taeyang folded his arms 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwyaNHhVZP
and said, "if you really want me to say something, I'll say what I think1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxyGtwsrxOS
and what I'm seeing right now. You aren't mad at GD. You're just hurt."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡilJNIaml9R
"Hurt? I don't get it." I felt even more confused.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwULDh7a80e
"You're may think you're1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwSM6IZHInw
upset and angry, when actually you're hurt. You just said you felt 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNF4KC7vRbq
betrayed with what GD did to you. Feeling betrayed isn't getting angry, 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRfG8MoRGEf
but feeling hurt."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ11NQtmEG5
I slowly took in what Taeyang said and I couldn't help but feel he was right on this one.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdywn8tEtBN
"But I wouldn't feel 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOCJYoQS3f
hurt or betrayed if I...." I was soon hit with the most shocking 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYKL1U4WqFp
revelation of my life and I stopped myself in mid sentence as I looked 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFftbYYeH5
at Taeyang.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4mbuplOcK
Taeyang gave me that 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JRl3f7cST
look that he already knew what I was about to say. And he probably had 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlCOwTEQsPP
figured it out a whole lot sooner than I did. I shook my head at him, 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BXmxOJ2rI
while in return, he nodded.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqbBHYJps7
"No, freaking way," I said, trying not to raise my voice. 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ50oClvanZR
"Ya," said Taeyang. "Believe it or not, it seems like you like him."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWmGxhJheD
I didn't say a word as I1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz86XQdzxPn
went back to leaning my back against the wall. I buried my chin into my1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSFLISPFMp6
panda's soft head not really believing what just happened. The thought 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAXX1cHgHa
of liking GD clouded my mind. Not only that. What happened between 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjuGwPbn70p
Daesung and I at the park really made things complicated.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGVDmZRBWAM
"I guess you're right," I muttered to Taeyang. "But I can't tell for sure if I really like him or not."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpu9dNApY7Q
"Maybe all you need is a little time to figure it out," said Taeyang. "Right now, you're just confused."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObUrjuzo9v
"I'm 'really' confused. You've no idea."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKCOPtlrai
"Did something else happen that you aren't telling me?"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ80mWC8OfIF
If there was ever a way I1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDis5N3oaN
would personally give Taeyang an award for, was for mind reading. It's 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnflsHzJ051
like he knew what was going on inside my head. I wondered if I should 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbYa73ADFu
tell him about Daesung too, but I was saved my the bell.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4b9w14kDSN
"Hey, you two, let's go, lunch is ready downstairs," said Zoey appearing in the passage. 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXsVgPM1gjd
"Okay, let me put my panda away," I said as I quickly disappeared into the room and I left it on my bed. 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs19i2jP4vX
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.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmkTc9hB1y
"You two are really close today. Are you up to something?" Zoey asked Taeyang and I as we got into the elevator.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkcqN2Sn2Hb
"No, why do you ask?" I asked.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjjM9QMAst
"Well, I'm just asking,"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmu4Gu1dnnh
said Zoey, as she playfully scratched the back of her head. "Who knows,1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQnXJqnFeWk
Taeyang might steal you away from me and become your new best friend."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5gNCVTeRC1
"Sounds like you're jealous," said Seungri, with a mocking smile on his face.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡurVAVrVBhB
"No, I'm not!" Zoey snapped.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPXkZRqZ9Zr
"Hilarious," muttered Taeyang, as he smiled.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPYmaDyeoN
"If I knew that's what you were thinking about, I wouldn't have asked," I said, as I rolled my eyes.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4M89Zv4OCh
I pressed the button 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLxxj8VnRy
leading us to the ground floor and the doors to the elevator closed 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwqaC5elyBg
before us. In a matter of seconds, we found ourselves on the ground 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZVKJci8C4
floor and we all walked out of the elevator.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdhYu44V3op
We went to the main 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS95djxNUcI
hotel dinning room and a waiter lead us to the table reserved for us for1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56H7JGuc0J
lunch. It was a huge round table in the VIP section. There were ten 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Z8PSXmZiS
seats around the table, obviously for all BigBang and Toxins members.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFbxEMx6x07
"Why didn't you invite, our managers and Lee?" I asked Zoey as we approached the table.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9wPaGpPWLp
"Are you serious? Those guys are busy and you wanted me to invite them?" Zoey asked. 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxBhdu9P9H
"To be honest, we just 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3OUffINk2o
wanted to avoid them asking us questions about yesterday," said Daniel. 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPTqPOpf9l8
"We wanted it to be strictly Toxins and BigBang."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDAgisShrd1
"Was that so hard to say?" I asked Zoey upon Daniel's answer.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlYn2i2GOIP
"Maybe. Let's forget about it and sit, shall we?" Zoey suggested and she walked ahead of us, reaching the table first.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzTowb4tjPD
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.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFQhKqe8tE
"Thanks, Tae," I said as I smiled up at him.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUhszUXTbJ3
"You're welcome," said Taeyang as he sat next to me and Daesung sat on my other side.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07W2UFJxRZ
"Okay, weird, you two are getting real close," said Zoey as she sat across the table looking directly at Taeyang and me.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE6JbkhySbW
"Nah, I don't think so,"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOhd9ccz6xQ
said Christine. "Taeyang is just so sweet. I wish I was the sick one so1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHwps5ySNIA
he would be treating me like that."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8goQ32rF5n
"Mmm, I don't think so,"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlHlyKKcGmd
said Zoey, shaking her head. "Did something happen between the two of 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4n9yYryPC
you yesterday that I'm not aware of?"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5KgrRN78kV
"My goodness," I rolled my eyes and sniffed. "Stop making a drama out of everything, Zoey."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWvoTcpV6S
"I'm not," said Zoey, shrugging her shoulders.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2KTwGhwnR
"Then, stop trying to make one."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpqKiJOZBS
"Before you two decide to tear each other apart," said Seungri. "Can we please have our food now? I'm starving."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmv5FfOycZt
"Ya, me too," said Mike.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4U6ROEJXb6
"Wait, we've to wait for TOP and GD to get here first," said Zoey.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGM8mPoBw5d
"Seriously?" Daniel asked. "Do we really have to wait?"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrH99pJRovX
"We can't really be so sure how long they're going to take to get here," said Daesung.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5M1XjWFx4
"They will be here any moment now," said Zoey as she stared at her fancy white wrist watch. "Trust me."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡREiaG87qum
"Really? Can we just get on with it?" Mike asked.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhjAQyQsAM
"We haven't even passed a minute, and you're complaining already?" Daesung asked almost in a fit of laughter.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3N95ja0sBM
"Ah, here they come," said Zoey as she looked behind me. "Told you they will be here."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0yIMd23KSJ
I didn't even dare try 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0gk2aWTX6
to look behind me as I twirled a strand of my hair with my fingers as I 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vTUQiQ2u7
coughed. Zoey got up from her seat and ran over to G-Dragon and TOP.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlCXt2VwesT
"I'm so glad you're here," said Zoey. 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUlhuUQb0Y
"I'm glad you invited us," came TOP's voice. "How is our patient doing?"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVRG3Fv6hrr
"Why don't you see for yourself?" Zoey suggested.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8MSPkKv92
I heard footsteps coming1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHKGxTqWbV
towards the table and I couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJoJwOGcNF
as I moved in my seat. Taeyang must have noticed because he turned to 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKW1DVKGwA
look at me.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTgEAldrFRh
"Are you okay?" he whispered.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLicsXdA7hp
"I'm trying to," I whispered back.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzHLama0gCi
I soon felt strong hands1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5C0dGKbAAo
grip my shoulders and I was startled. For a moment, I thought it was GD1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIGnmhD9V00
until I took a whiff of TOP's musky cologne.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡysfSAc8GxU
"Hi, Sam," said TOP, as he bent over to give me a peck on the cheek. "How are you doing?"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8FjRKnACeb
"I'm a whole lot better,1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf1wp5r2d9O
thanks," I replied, as I felt myself blush and the spot where TOP 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOLBAeMthN
pecked me burn up. "It's nothing serious." I sniffed.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0804J8KK41
"Glad to hear that."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpjuCJ4ivRj
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.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjiFTYWljO
"I'm glad you're okay, Sam. I thought of the worst when you got sick."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQWZ3XJsv0u
I was planning not to 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡejZlRWFYzi
turn and look at G-Dragon, but I did anyway. When I looked at him, he 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXINr0dYOA
was staring at me with those captivating eyes of his. I could tell that 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGqtKrIwBGE
he was sorry for what he did to me yesterday. I was wondering whether to1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ95L9cNxAnf
jump at him and tear him apart, or just let the problem go like water 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡouhDOdHYlt
under the bridge.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dTXNHIrmZ
I smiled, at least that was an effort, and said, "I'm fine, GD, my cold isn't serious neither is it contagious."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3HxAo5syP
"Wait, you're not mad at me anymore?" he asked.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp5jBU6cM2D
I tried not to frown. "Let's not talk about that. I'm starved."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWmqOQxtCYv
"Okay, then," said Zoey, as she wrapped her arm around G-Dragon's elbow. "Let's sit and have lunch."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwdLszAleZ
Zoey and G-Dragon sat down next to each other as they were conversating about something.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNaQoELW1T
"You know what? At least I tried not to sound mad at him," I said to Taeyang.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtAhWjJSSjW
"Will you try to keep that up for long?" Taeyang asked.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM1qzr0LkAh
"If I can manage to have lunch without any mishaps, then I know things will be okay."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLEwBdauQJ
The waiters soon came 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkA1sUHEPk5
and laid our lunch on the table. We first had lovely soup for a starter.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrcM0q4ZFum
And since Zoey mentioned earlier that it was a special lunch 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMI0twvF3sD
specifically for me, we were all served my favourite dish as the main 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ394aPgCJLG
meal, Italian chicken terazzini.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55bmmlM7OW
For a moment, I felt 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvIxdQrbxZ
more at home than ever before. A feeling I hadn't felt in a long time. 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySMcJyTuBY
Zoey really knew how to make me feel more pleased with her in order for 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXNW5oFV7Z
me to forget that I was ever mad.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJTqnoV16z
"Mmm, this is so 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ82cS54LoNQ
delicious," said Mike, a few minutes in during the meal. "Now I see why 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVIVdzhAf8y
you like this dish, Sam. It's so awesome."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsk55R8aEFL
"I agree," said Seungri. "And the chefs here really know how to make a good meal."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0GXrDbjBRR
"We wouldn't have had this if it wasn't for Zoey," I said, as I looked at her. "Thanks, by the way."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTD3q6rjCrN
"Anything for you, Sam,"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9TKtQbvWFd
said Zoey with a huge grin on her face. "But to be honest, this whole 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs5prm3H1i2
lunch thing, wasn't really my idea."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFSCcdQkpUC
"Oh? Then whose was it then?" Daesung asked.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0l8YWDZuj
"Da, GD. Who else?" Zoey replied as she playfully nudged G-Dragon on his arm with her elbow.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmWENHnzAX
I had just taken in some1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtF2mBV52fs
food into my mouth and I almost choked on it, but I tried not to make 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaRyzkbwRAm
it look obvious. I slowly put my spoon and fork on the plate as I slowly1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWQtS9Jxi4
tried to chew my food, but at the same time, processing what Zoey had 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9uxDEFTtJ6
just said.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWGamh5jQQS
"This was all G-Dragon's idea?" I asked.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC33EK66ghj
"Well, ya," Christine 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgw2lDm8a1S
replied. "You were so mad that you weren't talking to us, when we met 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYaNWKW7uMW
G-Dragon at YG this morning, he suggested the idea of throwing you a 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡprTJJbu7EZ
special lunch to lighten your mood."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmE8aBF9loh
At that moment, I didn't know if all this lightened my mood or just darkened it even more.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEB3WqQF9UY
"Thanks for the lunch, 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtt0o1Lc8z
GD," I said with a smile, which felt rather painful on my face. "It's so1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK9yqAGUFej
sweet of you to have come up with this."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLKxkEM7cPU
"You're welcome," said G-Dragon as he winked at me.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQjHuZHgjGj
I almost felt like 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6gxxFP3iR
jumping at him from my seat to poke his eyes out with a fork, but I was 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNd1c6z8YQe
surprised with myself when I didn't move a muscle and continued to stare1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvdJ6QCC3H
at him with a fake smile on my face. Where was all this anger coming 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7AGZT9tpl1
from? And why was it that with every minute that passed, my anger kept 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSFHxfnTkly
turning into rage?1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXUXNiBzc68
Oh, goodness. I needed 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdzR28yy8lM
help, that's for sure. I wasn't supposed to be mad at G-Dragon up to 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItUGK6F8yD
this point. But why did I still feel angry and hurt? 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhzbocDOAyP
I tried to push aside 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6KCvrgVHW6
the questions and my boiling anger as I stared at my food and continued 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRENocPsLuT
to eat. When we were all done with our main meal, we were served 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITjq92tQA6
dessert. Again, surprise, surprise, it was my favourite dessert, frozen 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEApsup9QsP
chocolate moussé.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQnmvneASV
"Yum, yum, yum," I said,1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqkVaIgmKkB
with a bright smile on my face as the waiter laid down a dessert bowl 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS0QZBVw3r4
filled with chocolate moussé in front of me.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1q9gohu91z
"This is the most excited I've seen you today, Sam," said Taeyang.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhzKX6ZR2iy
"It's because chocolate moussé is her favourite dessert," said Daniel. "Give her that and she would be your best friend."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ65nynrLBSg
"I'll keep that in mind," said TOP.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2OU4UKYXNz
I didn't wait for 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvY8YVG9WK
everyone else to get their own share of dessert. As soon as I got mine, I1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMSxJQJSNm
got a dessert spoon and started to eat the cold dessert. Mmmm, I closed1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlgqpMsLfwW
my eyes as I took it in my mouth and for once, I felt like I was in 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46ZED21nGj
heaven.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1AOAYiUrZR
"This is so good," I said, with my eyes closed as I savoured the chocolate in my mouth.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9sr1Iy4is
"Be careful though," said G-Dragon. "You're not supposed to be eating cold stuff when you've a cold and a cough."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW1KglIhqhP
"I don't care," I said 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡozmTmLNHGG
as I opened my eyes and smiled at G-Dragon. "I would end up with a bad 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjEfb0OtUGi
sore throat and I still wouldn't mind."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLX76fYJDBU
G-Dragon smiled back at 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLt7MKjsElP
me and I realised that I wasn't mad at him anymore. It looked like I 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxVzfors1n
really couldn't stay mad at him. And I was glad that all the hate faded 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ysHEtdWYR
away.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCCvTZs8TbW
After dessert, we all 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRIxvnI4JSU
just sat there and started to chat. For once, it felt really good to be 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuo9YRBDTzF
on speaking terms with everyone again. We were soon talking about what 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp4O1Cih4qf
happened yesterday. After going through all that and talking about it, 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1yjdYyWdP
it all seemed rather funny and we all laughed about it. Although, the 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQaA3rrLhVK
part where G-Dragon had made me dive into the pool seemed to hurt a 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9RaKi8T6Bx
little, I knew I would grow out of it someday.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvLJAtelUaQ
"Hey, may I ask?" Seungri asked. "How did Lee manage to keep our managers at YG for so long?"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEkSTGRUavm
"Not sure, I'll make sure to ask her later on," I said.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQn5Ut8wMY6
"Yesterday, was just hilarious," said Zoey, wiping away a fake tear after laughing. "We should try that again some time."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgPX2YaUcJW
"But this time, not at the water park," I said.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZjD40fGBDM
"Then where?" Daesung asked. "The water park was so much fun."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJ2WFSUKs5
"I suggest we try to figure that out later," I said. "We have stuff to do."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfRHOTbgqON
"What stuff?" TOP asked.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSPxJpgNU1P
"The song. Don't tell me you all forgot?"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgHHE8DZrVY
"Oh, the song!" Mike slapped his forehead. "I myself forgot about that."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHuUQk4QLzf
"I thought both you and G-Dragon were going to work on it," said Christine.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHvZhriYybZ
"Ya, but I have a better idea," I said.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDAQ1FjkrWc
I felt Taeyang look at me and I turned to look at him.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLaXEyRw2QP
"Are you really going through with that?" Taeyang asked, as he whispered.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqMRMD4hlK
"I don't think that's a big deal, is it?" I whispered back. "I think it's a good idea."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVJGqfWiyY
"Wait, what's going on?"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhsGHw5F2x
G-Dragon asked, as he noticed Taeyang and I whispering to each other. 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnIFT37SUU
"And what idea have you come up with for the song?"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDoWf8AVmSm
"I thought we should all1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKLQ1XGW33r
work on the lyrics together. I feel it will be a lot better if we all 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡra7zGH31DM
bring out our ideas and put them as lyrics."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqwtyF2lgz
"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.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrfggN1PPzy
"I don't know, I feel we1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE66Vx49ihk
have to put our all in the song by coming up with lyrics from everyone.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcYrxNK8Ir
It might sound a little strange, but we all have to help each other out1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrgLmDiSYq
on this. If there is anyone objecting to it, you're free to do so."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjx5gJIxxqR
"I don't get it though,"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5gkfc6Die
said G-Dragon, as he leaned back on his chair and stared at me. "What 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMiO11uOtHr
made you come up with this idea when we already agreed on who will write1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Of0ebWHUp
the lyrics?"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcoERprCSqf
"I don't know, it kind of felt right, I think," I said.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqqwECRvRh1
"You think?" G-Dragon now raised his eyebrow at me. "Is there something you aren't telling us?"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG5EDbzTzl7
This time, I also raised1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcaj5FpAQ6w
an eyebrow. I had told Taeyang about my idea earlier not because I was 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkvLc8yUwW
trying to avoid G-Dragon but for everyone else's benefit.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKuwXXTCteP
"What makes you think I have other intentions?" I asked.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡixGTba91L1
"Maybe you might still be mad at G-Dragon," Zoey blurted out.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqF7Z2M0l18
I sighed. Great! These were the times you wished Zoey never had such a big mouth.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSACosRAlU1
"Is that true? Are you still mad at me?" G-Dragon asked.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4WMfTQ7KSc
"No, not any more," I answered. "At first I was, but now I'm over with what happened yesterday."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJAd0E8wddV
"Or are you still mad that you don't want to work on the lyrics with me?"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4GN4T52pGo
By the way G-Dragon 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOBw7jAsrT
spoke, I could tell he was hurting. But it was pretty hard to try to 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdoOwwUCjO
convince him that yes, I was mad at first and I wanted to avoid him. And1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqhA8pGs2W
no, since I'm no longer mad at him any more and that the idea of all of1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeW8JpIQzVX
us working on the lyrics for the song seemed like a good idea.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbHF2iqdBK
"I just told you, I'm not mad anymore."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAs3QHP73b2
"Why is it that I don't believe you?"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYQnIde7gF
"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."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vbcWXWyGq
"Mmm, looking at it through Sam's point of view, I see nothing wrong if all of us work on the song," said Daniel.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDBquGwJvs
"Then why come up with this in the first place?" Zoey asked. 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3inyxBfTo
"I already told you, I just think it's a good idea," I repeated.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6Dt9WLniu
"Well, I'm not up for it," said G-Dragon folding his arms. "I object."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfttY7eQUNQ
"Well, you should have said that instead of blaming me for coming up with this as an excuse."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvq6pV2IxfS
"I think you are, and you're not telling us."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qGGCGP0L0
"Are we going to go through this again? You just objected."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPosRTSuR3f
"I could go through this over and over again if I had to until you tell us the truth."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaCklXkRR6f
"What truth?" I asked.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPb1I39DjIL
"Okay, guys this is getting a little out of hand," said Taeyang. "Don't forget, we aren't the only ones here."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOgXhYA5oCB
Taeyang was right. I was1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi4fekrihz4
so caught up in the argument with G-Dragon, I forgot that we were in 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ib4fw8pdx
the hotel dining room. I looked around us and a few heads from other 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXCC7i1slgp
tables turned to ours. It seemed like our argument caught some people's 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxqVngzDDp
attention.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGqvTPNhgQ
"Tae's right," I said. "We shouldn't be arguing, much less here."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5adfFAjrN
"Then let's conclude on this once and for all then," said Deasung. "Those who favour Sam's idea, raise your hand."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2FPsjIImq
Taeyang, Daesung, Daniel1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk1SH9NBQqw
and Mike, raised their hands. That meant Zoey, TOP, Seungri and 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZBhxP1icbm
Christine were on G-Dragon's side. What a bummer!1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkj8smrJJB5
"Whoops, looks like it's a tie," said Zoey playfully with a smirk.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHCwDBH73t
"It's not funny, Zoey," I said shaking my head.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiAgKCk6ObC
"Well, this just got serious," said Seungri, scratching his head.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZ3fcE458D
"It's a tie, so I suggest we..." I was then interrupted by G-Dragon.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB4AnrPW5Gu
"No, this time you aren't going to say or suggest anything," said G-Dragon.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXMXJXAzAD
"But I....." 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ63hTRqypP5
"Sam, sshh," said Zoey, 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOlaVmzGxP
pressing her index finger to her lips, telling me to keep quiet. "You've1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpoFAXlMDB
talked way too much, don't you think?"1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDR7uIZOkoi
That felt like a slap in1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMuHkO7op7G
the face and I felt my face burn up in embarrassment. It looked like 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbNUVLeztMI
the tables had turned on me today. At first I was mad at G-Dragon and 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBnAFdMgilt
the other Toxins, but now, I was the one pissing everyone off. What 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxgUbCx10o
happened to me being the leader? I know G-Dragon was older, but what 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrW68RAUCQs
about what I thought was best for the whole group?1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrLimGUhMVz
"I suggest we think about it and when we meet tomorrow, we vote over it again," said G-Dragon.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkfzu2J0Lq9
"That's fine with me," said Mike.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7cPFTvJMP9
Everyone else agreed, 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Pf6iDnkOG
except me since I was told not to say a word. I personally also thought 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGde3PnCUX
it was a good idea to try and think things through. But what if it 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqbkzhbxnR
didn't work out tomorrow? What would we do then? I had a terrible 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJwOq1oYKTr
feeling that things weren't going to go as planned and we needed a Plan 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC6ooUPNo5E
B, just in case.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwFW3L9oWH1
"Okay, then, we will meet tomorrow," said G-Dragon as he stood up to leave.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIHGYfRZvk3
"But I've something to say," I blurted out.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9vVo6qPHGO
"Not now, Sam. We will 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm8nPd5XRat
meet tomorrow," said G-Dragon as he looked at me and walked away from 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ynLKZ7NHf
the table heading for the door. I had to admit, the way he looked at me 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡskoJHaP0FG
gave me goosebumps.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3uRTHcTFy
"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."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSZJlWK2oi
Zoey went after G-Dragon and I sat back on my chair, feeling defeated and powerless. 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtx3rsEnAa7
One by one everyone 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoysW8ClXti
started to leave the table without even saying a word. It was awkward 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEaRB34zszG
with the argument that had taken place, and saying something didn't seem1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡET68xbE8xH
appropriate.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvByVBnDWq
I was soon left with Taeyang at the table and I looked at him, wondering why he hadn't left.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp0uTfZPdCU
"Aren't you supposed to have left by now?" I asked.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡInKhENkz5d
"And leave you all alone? No way," said Taeyang.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQc654EEKA
"Why do I feel like I've just become the villain?" I asked, my thoughts elsewhere.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBbzNBWOJ46
"You aren't a villain. You just feel bad that not everyone agreed to your idea."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAECcinAS3C
"It's not that. I pissed1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU4J0zNaU66
almost everyone off and that makes me feel bad. How I wish I could take1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIU6GN4rTBB
everything I said back. Too bad I can't control time."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjzFnV7sZf
"You never knew that was going to happen. Let's just hope for the best that it would all seem like one bad dream."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGl9TuJ2Ld
"Thanks, Tae" I said, trying to put up a smile. "It means a lot that you're still here."1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcUMi4ZQXGq
Taeyang placed his hand 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRSBa46bLe
on my shoulder, an assurance that he was there for me no matter what. He1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKpAHjO7oF
smiled back at me and I felt comforted.1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjznKfavSGj
I knew I had to hope for1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6S3i7wXlFb
the best just like Taeyang had suggested. But I couldn't ignore the gut1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9MnZw0sEVc
feeling that things weren't going to run smooth and easy from now 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSDYSw19Zb
on wards. Especially now that G-Dragon was angry at me. He seemed more 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtII8DqHhMa
angrier at me than I was at him. I feared for the worst and I knew this 1041Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHxFhIiq95
was just the beginning of a heavy storm ahead.
