My body ached all over 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASOvp7MBjE
when I finally woke up. My eyes slowly opened and a flash of light above1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshEDUnIzi5
me was blinding that I had to shield my eyes with my hand. When my eyes1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwnLhWr6ErP
adjusted to the light, I sat up and I could tell I hadn't slept on my 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡswPfLwc0lo
bed.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBe1pDJWnh
I scratched my head as I1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwReYTkHRxz
slowly took in my surrounding. I had slept in the lounge on the floor. I1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOpQvaukxg7
closed my eyes and murmured to myself. Collins was going to kill me if 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC7djiltahx
he found me here.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SuGLq8vYp
I slowly stood up and I 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgeBgeZq8N
realised that I had been covered with a blanket when it dropped to the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEADpPqxHTa
floor. Lee must have found me sleeping and covered me with it. So 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLyn6IA5xZh
thoughtful of her. And the guitar laid on the couch.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAsLGLFYTSG
"Morning, sleepy head," came Collins' voice behind me.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR36q83VCFn
I almost jumped in 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrlq5bm9yU3
fright when I turned around. I found Collins sitting at the dining 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cSq7LY5mY
table, drinking a hot cup of coffee and looking at his tablet. He was 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNix9cEB3mZ
obviously reading the news online.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4CnN66UA64
"Hey, Collins," I replied as I walked over to him.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7fHcIqrrI
"What did we say about working on the song the whole night?" Collins asked, still looking at his tablet.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsDLnPXpzdD
"'Don't tire yourself 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpIf5aDyfOi
out and just go to sleep,'" I said, remembering what Collins had told me1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBOQ6YBvTZ
last night since I refused to go to sleep when I arrived.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlCbsle4jRs
"And you didn't listen to me and you kept on playing your guitar the whole night. Your song sounds incredible, by the way."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ZLgeNFVhc
"Oh, you were listening?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVt62DIs0F
"Ya, you kept on playing1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kG7M1U3r3
until I couldn't hear you play anymore. I came to check up on you and 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3vaNgcXa7e
you were hugging the guitar like a teddy bear."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ90oAcZxJCR
"Thanks, Collins." I smiled at him.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfyfBNceNn
"For what?" Collins asked as he looked at me.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUPNx2lUPF
"For covering me with a blanket."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9yiFW5QAkB
Collins looked at me 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Y7mNF3bHr
with his eyebrow raised and smiled. "Go take a shower. We need to leave 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe57eaWEicM
for YG. Yang Hyun-suk also needs to hear the song."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyVMXvdNcRT
"Okay." I smiled as I nodded.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GvHO3Txag
"Morning, people," said Lee as she came into the lounge. "It feels really weird these guys aren't here. The place is so quiet."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13rWC7QE1Q
"I know," I said. "I really miss them."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNJKbeQk3k
"Me too."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA3ol3Rd4Mk
"I don't," said Collins as he sipped some of his coffee.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEoZUyOZjZl
Lee and I threw Collins angry glances. Collins chuckled to himself.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1h5NFpAqm
"Going to take a shower," I said.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJbNE8Cu6Wy
"You go do that," said Lee. "I'll order us some breakfast."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeAMe64UsKg
After I freshened myself1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31ec0wzpXs
up, I went back to the lounge. I still found Lee and Collins by the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHfIyHOwPH
dining table. Lee was having her usual toast and eggs for breakfast, and1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnepYLkPfIw
Collins was still on his tablet.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPueYR9Ebc
"Are you going to keep on reading the news the whole morning?" I asked as I took a seat at the table.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9ohQlmblS
"Nope. Just looking at 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgcSHowiTI
messages," Collins replied. "Zoey sent me one. She said she will be 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMTvw26S3W
coming back late at night with the others."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhRAkb0czH
"Are they having a good time?" I got a slice of bread that laid on the middle of the table and was applying marmalade on it.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBhHXNBhT5z
"You know Zoey. She doesn't take any opportunity for granted when she is in some glamorous place."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATZKVGAd2E
"True." I shrugged as I got another slice of bread.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGElyuROfX
"She even sent Collins a picture," said Lee. She turned to face Collins as she jerked her head. "Show her."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5nqQXJjBNM
Collins handed his 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz617egZr7p
tablet over to me and I took it. Zoey took a selfie of herself with the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfHPGpwbiv
other Toxins, G-Dragon and TOP behind her. They were all cheering and 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZ0qunFEqt
raising their hands up in the air. I smiled. Looks like they were really1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0gS2GqGU2F
having a great time.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxNM8rqgwO
"Is it me or is that the Eiffle Tower behind them?" I asked.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWdnP0q24g
"It sure is," said Lee, raising a cup of coffee to her lips.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDyx6Qi6xoo
I mumbled. I had always wanted to go to Paris and see the Eiffle Tower. These guys were so lucky. Boo hoo for me.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMwZLu78FTH
"They should have as 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIRDJ84UVkm
much fun as they could possibly can," said Collins as I gave him back 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnTgUCweVq
the tablet. "They are in for a lovely treat."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpH6M72Y9Xm
"What? Is it about the song?" I looked at Collins.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVZcLe6BhA
"No, it's not about the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcPHpP0GGVl
song. They already know they have a lot of work to do with the song when1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKwnq39Esf
they get back. I'm talking about something else."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYN6U3JykGr
I looked at Lee who sat 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4uEyq7beAp
opposite me. I gave her a look that told her to tell me what Collins 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXsIgNOZrBY
meant. But she looked at me with a worried expression. That meant she 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK5ZiCJbHqM
didn't have the slightest clue of what Collins was talking about.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn05548Izs6
"What are you talking about Collins?" I asked as I poured myself a cup of coffee.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIuhFXmuUAd
"Oh, you will see," said Collins with a huge grin on his face.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXoTYUVg8M
I almost shuddered when Collins smiled. I'd never liked that smile. That only meant Collins had something up his sleeve.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmnRIzwInv
"You can tell us, Collins. I won't tell the others."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT4Q8koBiGF
"If I tell you, I'll 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2KUiLvvqq7
just ruin everything. Just sit back and wait for things to happen. 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKaT7FnSCA
Finish your breakfast. We will be out of this place in a few minutes."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡavAHnSWxm7
Collins got up from his 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuyRBFa7mne
chair and walked away with a satisfied look on his face. How I wish I 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Fl2MCXarW
knew what he was thinking. Whatever he planned for us seemed rather 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2F0wxaYvG7
amusing to him and might turn out bad for some of us.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXhZKhr7YU5
"What do you know?" I 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXy0D1QoYoR
asked Lee, immediately I knew that Collins was in his room. I leaned 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSqJF7C2wpN
forward to look at her straight in the eye. I seemed more like a 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡov95X4RCjd
detective asking questions to a criminal.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0a4nlmCJdD
"I don't know," Lee 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡliuGvjtbEf
replied with a shocked look on her face. "I am as surprised as you are. 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYdNiwd3lL
And besides, I wasn't with Collins the whole day of yesterday."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQCTZkpcpqJ
I knew something was up 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDkD7NSB3i
when Collins wasn't around yesterday. I wondered what he and Yang 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyBnefJqS30
Hyun-suk had planned this time. Collins had a happy look on his face.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZc86TOA6n2
"This is not good," I said as I leaned back on my seat.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVi1vDJk3B9
"I don't think it's that bad," said Lee. "Whatever they have planned, will be okay. Even for you."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpcV62urMBw
"Well, hopefully." I blew out a puff of air and shook my head as I thought of what happened to G-Dragon and I yesterday.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS796Kh3Xo0
"Hey, what's wrong?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNwhr6VAsb
"I think G-Dragon and I aren't on good terms again."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGPEWbhMhbp
"What? What happened?" Lee looked shocked and then again, confused.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7VYaeswNhq
"Things were going so well before things went down the drain when Zoey and TOP came to YG yesterday."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZAULubxfa
Lee leaned her head backwards and let out a huge murmuring sound. "Don't tell me Zoey ruined everything."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08R2HqP0Eu
"Well, kind of," I said 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl3rNpOupjU
as I thought of what happened and who to blame. "It's complicated. And 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfdzVrwBuO
to be honest, I don't who to blame. But it wasn't entirely their fault."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBiF5YVcIw
"Eat up. You will need all the energy to sing that song. We'll talk about this later."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMrL9Ta4ikS
"Okay."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXP2VMUuDa5
I was just done eating my breakfast when Collins came to tell us that it was time to go. I carried the guitar and my notebook.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9j13Re1asl
Lee, Collins and I soon 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJRaMKgh6GG
left the hotel and we were at YG. To be honest, I felt kind of nervous. I1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzTVebZMTj
was going to perform the song in front of Collins and Yang Hyun-suk but1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgkMsfFug4y
it felt like I was going on the X Factor auditions just to be judged 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJBqLKglWH
afterwards. Collins did say the song sounded amazing. I just wondered 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcldnGkBlr
what Yang Hyun-suk would say.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2SFDiFTwX
I was waiting in th 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdH5IBKUqND
recording studio, waiting for Collins and Yang Hyun-suk. I kept telling 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNixLmGYRDO
myself that everything was going to be alright and I shouldn't worry 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOFnxKWAbn
because I had gone through all of this several times. But today, I was 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6agH0wKRg
edgy and my heart was beating so fast.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlgHCzo24u
I was pacing up and down1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZuY62KAzB
with agitation written all over my face when the door to the studio 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8pQQ8W7J9p
opened. I turned to the door and Lee came in with Taeyang and his 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwLxHq2pnn
girlfriend, Hyo-rin. Well, this is a surprise. I never thought I would 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxOfI8skvm
ever meet Hyo-rin again. Well, not today when I'm about to sing a song 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJTctYqoRf3
and I was so nervous.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW3oE6pfFAl
"Here she is," said Lee,1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡetbPcJegPx
turning to face Taeyang and Hyo-rin. "I've tried to calm her down but 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4KFHnjlCc9
she can't stop pacing up and down like an ant. Maybe she will listen to 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJOXXDnHFa
you, Tae."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLO6jWK6hZW
I frowned at Lee and I 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuPKweLmHGA
wanted to snap at her but I brushed it off. She hadn't even made an 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqNKNxPMlRu
effort to try and calm me down. She had left me all alone. What a 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZXkfA9O86
friend.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9YLYq86xH
"Hi, Tae," I said and walked over to Hyo-rin and gave her a hug.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUR3Xy3GNJ
"I never thought I would see you again," I said to Hyo-rin with a smile after I hugged her.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNO6gPJU4Gk
"I told Taeyang that I 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqd1svs0lO
wanted to see you," said Hyo-rin. "Looks like I decided to come and see 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkWX8jksN19
you at the right time when you're about to sing the song."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5YR7N6i4hv
"Our manager called me 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNH3kZWvQ4n
to come to the studio and listen to the song," said Taeyang, answering 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoTanPAJXSw
the puzzled look on my face. "Hyo-rin came to see me and heard my 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5h5A2LbBr
conversation on the phone. That's why she wanted to come and see you."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHxeitgoia
"Thanks," I said. "Maybe with you guys around I might just calm down a little bit."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCPauVP22sr
"I'll go and check on the managers and see what's taking them so long," said Lee as she started to head out of the room.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwC7D3qaHr6
I wanted to call out to her and tell her to let it be. I didn't want our managers here just yet. But she had already left.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2iaKNEbEnp
"So, where are the others?" Hyo-rin asked as she took a seat on the comfortable leather couch and Taeyang followed.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8IBQ1nuoMF
"They left for Paris," I answered. I was still standing with my arms folded.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIaNyDeeMjc
"Oh, they left with GD," said Taeyang. "He told me last night."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhaiZrNkWOR
"Ya, these guys are having a ton of fun right now," I said as I looked at my fingers.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYU8ioCgym8
"But how come you didn't go with them?" Hyo-rin asked.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxWwLhEyqs0
"I had the song to finish up. Trust me, it wasn't easy. But I had help before they could leave for Paris."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZzmIG17JwJ
"Looks like you're always the one stuck here working hard while the others go out and have fun."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWrkV0GXru
"Ya. Looks like it." I smiled slightly.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk1aOKhpxi5
"You managed to finish the song?" Taeyang asked.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpTzQhJM5Hc
"I did. Want to take a look at the lyrics?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQoIcQlcHGf
"Sure."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMXCCa3lKDt
I gave Taeyang my 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4mzQWQGXm
notebook and with Hyo-rin beside him, they looked at the lyrics 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEi92lUteZw
together. I couldn't help but smile at the two of them. They looked so 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMIACtPta3J
cute together.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6XBzDEyhk
"I can't wait for you to sing the song for us," said Hyo-rin as she looked at me. "The lyrics sound really good."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5UPpfDw89U
"Thanks. I was singing 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPaRiq0Ncp
the song while playing the guitar the whole night. I had to make it work1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFbbmPzW6J
on the second verse and since the song is mixed with English and 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbD01oYc9F
Korean, I just had to make it perfect."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0AsesHyv6W
"You can read Korean?" Hyo-rin asked.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGxOXT7kf4
"Well...not really," I 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ50Jg3hBmwP
said shrugging my shoulders. "I had to learn the Korean alphabet and the1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZsKdilJX9u
vowels. And with GD and TOP's help yesterday, I was fine with it."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZ8mBEXu0s
"Wow. Pretty smart," said Hyo-rin with a smile on her face.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0LdfX5COOj
"Sam is totally smart," said Taeyang. "And this song is going to be a huge hit."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcyGzIQnGjs
I couldn't help but smile at their sweet compliments. That made me forget about my fear. For now.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUVCdgvFYSo
The door suddenly flew open and Seungri and Daesung came in. Seungri rushed to hug me when he first saw me.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzfjWjrCEP9
"Hey, I missed you so much," said Seungri.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvdfOumtX1
"Ya, me too," I said as I tried to breathe. Seungri always hugged me so tight.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PWPxDfljn
"Hey, Sam," said Daesung as he came over to hug me.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡptszS8hMYT
"Hi," I blushed when we hugged and I smiled like a fool.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZlQR2AHTk0
"So, when do we hear the song?" Seungri asked, looking so excited.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuAsdEeUPAh
Before I could reply, a voice came at the door. Yang Hyun-suk's voice.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4svbu7iA6
"Right now."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxF5cHp1oHH
We all turned towards 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRowvYUEvqA
the door. Yang Hyun-suk, Collins, Lee and one of YG's music producers 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvXXL3fqWyI
came in. This was it. I couldn't help but feel my palms get so sweaty.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8kb48v742e
When everyone got 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmBGeaL2M8B
settled onto the couch, I sat facing them sitting on a long stool and 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtN1kb4eMLY
holding the guitar. I looked on at the others and all I wanted was to 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJai1i3oNg
run out of the room.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNwcDIeSFAn
"We're ready when you're," said Yang Hyun-suk.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4dCH3V9Qa
I nodded my head and my 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW8EaL3MBJX
heart couldn't stop beating so hard. I tried to settle properly with the1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAEwp0EQCVj
guitar on my lap, but it felt so heavy like it was the first time when I1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtlNor84pnI
ever got to play it.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDilmhCmdF
I felt a break of sweat 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDnPYTTJUXr
would start to appear on my forehead. I blew out a puff of air and 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQIJ4xlBoC
stared at the audience. Daesung gave me an encouraging smile and I 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP3RFcGz4fY
slightly smiled back. I relaxed myself for a bit and closed my eyes as I1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJvkpsVZFG7
strung the strings on the guitar.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwfILvowP4
I started to sing as I 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTV6sLtnst0
played the instrument. My fear soon left me as I sang. It was going well1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwfVvKoCjYu
so far. Then I came to the second verse where most of the lyrics were 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ33fEo1s6n6
in Korean. I thought I would stumble and say something wrong but I 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAZxglLcH6t
didn't. Well, I hope so.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9AUnqSUuc
As soon as I was done 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1SmtZoOiXr
singing the whole song, I looked up at everyone. I had been trying to 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshX5GiDv2v
avoid their gaze the whole time so that I wouldn't really mess up with 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygHbd0vVn3
the song. I did get a few glances of their faces here and there, but I 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITUMLQUCpi
was staring above their heads the whole time and closing my eyes. I just1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhRMibyKuSN
hoped they liked it.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Bow03VNH3
The studio was still 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡow0M5zdTGQ
quiet. No one had said a word and I got scared. Wasn't it good enough? 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQwnA34QXC
Why weren't they saying anything? I looked on at Yang Hyun-suk and he 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcfDElakGSv
had a grim look on his face. Oh, no.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTre44kgfoC
Yang Hyun-suk cleared 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPWekdr8Bn
his throat. I knew he was going to speak first. Yikes! Not him. I would 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwiLiZ3b9l9
rather he said what he wanted to say last. I crossed my fingers.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvXPm5iKUqd
"Well, Sam," started Yang Hyun-suk. "The song is really....."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvMNn4ZkTS
This was it. The hammer 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88ls12Y1oW
blow to my career. I wanted to close my eyes as I waited for any hurtful1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDrMCN84596
word ready to come out of his mouth. I knew it was going to sting.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMZoSV9544
"....incredible."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHX13GaPvA
I opened my eyes and I 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9wLhNSPKqZ
couldn't believe that word just came out of his mouth. I looked up at 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkfu0lZjuN4
him and he started to clap his hands. The others followed. There was a 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbpYvMR0Tkc
round of applause in the room and I couldn't help but smile to myself. 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYYHDxtKep
It was such a relief. I could finally breathe.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXub4bymMxv
"I've to admit, when 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35rLt1SSRi
Collins told me that the song was good, I didn't believe him," said Yang1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4i5xWsrE8u
Hyun-suk, as he stood up from the couch. "It's just incredible."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPClbHIJD4
"Thank you," I said as I bowed my head.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQBUlxuyih
"You better start working on it," said Yang Hyun-suk. "Today."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXS76yj0PTz
"We sure will," said Taeyang as he came up to me. "That was mind blowing, Sam."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv9z8tSATSx
"Thanks," I said as I jumped off the stool. "I hope my Korean was okay."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18hGTVm049
"Are you kidding me? You sounded amazing," said Seungri.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxWm6kjt9f
"I agree," said Hyo-rin. "You sung in Korean like you've known that language your whole life."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWROLVVp4C2
I couldn't stop smiling 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgPRdYzYyB
at the others. I kept on receiving praises from the others including 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQFBKmDigF
Daesung who said that I had such a beautiful golden voice. I blushed and1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2gIq4xG8e
told him that wasn't true. To me, there was a big difference between a 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOSKgOotjZ
good voice and a golden one.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kQhtUFXKC
Immediately our managers1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1CHdVg3OzS
left with Lee, we went over to join the music producer by the audio 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmpqukgmbOw
engines and the multi track console. Above the console was a huge window1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQZvYcPxRk
that showed the live room where we the artists sing and play any 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0aK4powymd
musical instruments.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVluW1jC9Zu
This was always the hard1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpZQwCJSqkf
part of producing a track. Making the melodies and to find the right 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5txEV1MrN
tune for the song. I still had the tune of the song stuck in my head. 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhJBsk5oAz
But it was going to be difficult to make it sound right now that we had 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFxDjJfXTi3
to use auto tunes and electric beats.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZm6FxQ4lwp
An hour had passed and I1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWmTebbG29
was already feeling so tired. Making the soundtrack was so hard. And 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJ9Hp90QYN
this time, I got so tired so quickly. Must be that I really didn't have 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xB9IcvCMC
enough sleep last night. I was having a whole lot of fun with Daesung, 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg31bKBSv0i
Seungri and Taeyang around. I admired Hyo-rin who sat leisurely on the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡccJHx36fSo
couch and would come up and join us whenever she felt like it.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTH1qUF6a0b
"It's been an hour and I1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5XKW8nQUn
already feel so tired," I mumbled as I leaned by head backward as I sat1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ESEUecSGF
on a chair next to the music producer. "This is so hard."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMcEPTopGV
"Mind if I give you a massage?" Seungri asked as he came to stand behind me.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQUms9XKJ2
"No. I wonder what's wrong with you sometimes," I said as I rubbed my neck. "I don't need a massage."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsppcESSDr
"Trust me, you're so 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3uWYrT8Cv
tense," said Seungri as he laid his hands gently on my shoulders. 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZXkRFR973
"You've been working too hard. You definitely need a massage."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIz6TFZwERp
"No, Seungri." I tried to brush Seungri's hands away but he didn't budge.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJOKrco3Lx7
"Come on, Sam," said Hyo-rin, looking up from her phone. "Just let him massage you. The maknae always gets what he wants."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCDarOs4Fje
"Oh, please." I rolled my eyes. "I never let Daniel do whatever he wants. Why should I let Seungri?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa5wZFBQf92
"Sam's right. And besides, Seungri can't give a proper massage," said Daesung.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6O8iBIo7Cp
"Yes, I do!" Seungri snapped at Daesung.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB97Sy6KXYu
"No you don't!" Daesung snapped back.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb7Lmbydu7L
"I'm not going to talk about it," said Seungri as he started to relax my muscles on my shoulders.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOfaFhr4El
"Mmmm." I murmured in 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsLOI8rhnaR
pleasure as I smiled and closed my eyes. I could feel my body relax. 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQvkqOtGRk
"You're really good, Seungri. I might just hire you as my personal 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsjjA1gdK3O
masseur."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrrRREowkqq
"Thank you. I would definitely be your personal masseur."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkBREQUfyyI
I heard Daesung mutter to himself and I smiled. Looks like someone was jealous.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCnP9hnpL5e
The music producer soon 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBAbPw1zBkq
decided to take a break and he left. We made the studio more like our 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVTQvK7YgPo
own crib. We sat by the couch chatting and laughing. I was even playing 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhp2KtFcbi
with the guitar and we were singing some random songs together. It was 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6c0YdjiLp4
so much fun. Lee came in with our lunch and afterwards we were back to 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUE0z4noxOa
recording the track.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3N7OgDDyw
We spent another two hours recording, when Collins came into the room.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZu3rxfgc2
"Hey, Collins," I said as I turned to look at him, removing the headphones from my ears.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNTKtl1CUw
"I want you guys to do me a favour," said Collins.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1geos3IHv2
"What is it?" Taeyang asked as he also turned around to look at Collins.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKhHUyxuFx
"Zoey and the others will be coming later on in the evening, so I want you guys to go and pick them up."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0oNc6FHD1
I raised my eyebrow at Collins. "Why don't you do it? I mean, it's never a big deal for you, right?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1yRzaRBwJQ
"I'm busy, Sam. So I was1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwluGvs1Bb
thinking that you guys should do it. It will be good for you guys to 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYrpJaTq8ni
catch up with all that's happened in Paris."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMMyTOkrqQy
"Let me guess, you're 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3CHAOALwV
avoiding all the talking and yapping from Zoey." Daesung and Seungri 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGW1g3rhcyW
were snickering and I couldn't help but smile.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1CseKG8eWs
"You know me so well." Collins smirked. "But also it's because I have some important work to do."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIt8k6jejX1
Something told me his 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwC7uGvHC08
important work had something to do with what he talked about this 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVB3wep2iiu
morning. I dared not try to ask because he would brush me off like he 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpEPGSrhffy
always does.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQqGY0TGZ2
"Don't worry about it," said Daesung. "We will go and pick them up."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0TOEYKTbEs
"Thanks, guys," said Collins and he left the room.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4RWLcLLzt
It was late in the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL6BnF9OlGL
afternoon and I was as tired as hell. I was leaning my head on the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8sPrFPBDLg
console, careful not to mess around with the buttons and all. I had my 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL36BpPOp9J
eyes closed and I could slowly feel myself drifting away to sleep. 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xW2mi6MJI
Taeyang pulled up the headphones from my ears and that made me sit up.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfpHNnXaXsq
"What did I miss?" I asked, sounding drowsy and rubbing my eyes, when I knew nothing much had happened.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUkUNOO2E2Y
"Nothing. You just dosed off for a few seconds," said Taeyang.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZUrnBC3YX
I looked beside him and I1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHOkVgY1T8O
realised Daesung and Seungri weren't on their seats. I looked behind 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFSlVNfs8ob
and I saw them on the couch with Hyo-rin looking a little tired. The 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Y7w4GyK8M
music producer had already left the room and I had taken the liberty of 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCTPpIuplg
leaning my head on the console.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjSuOj11tF
"I always hate this part1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Bhw15W99q
of making a music track. As much as I love producing music, it gets me 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDHIlxMkcBF
so worked up and tired," I said as I leaned my head back onto the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvpsZKlfAQM
console.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHhPdEihjYS
"Ya, I understand you," said Taeyang. "I wonder what time these guys will get back."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeNDXEG4iq9
"Didn't Collins say at night?" I asked through a muffled tone.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJl4DgWNg9E
"I wonder what time."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55jNsfn2uo
"Wait." I pushed my head1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡII7HdXdA3u
upwards and felt like my head was spinning out of control. I was still 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRRkxSRii0B
feeling sleepy and I had to hold my head for a while as though I was 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1gztfYoFXz
drunk and the world around me was spinning.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhqb3Kn8mn
"Whoa! Are you okay, Sam?" Hyo-rin asked as she came over.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhfBrMM82nj
"Ya, I'm fine. Just tired." I pulled out my phone out of my pocket and decided to call Collins.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvH98rNUOS6
"You know, if you're tired you shouldn't come with us to the airport," said Daesung. "You look really tired."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnSiLMWZRCh
"I didn't sleep well 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Rah25ROgL
last night," I said as I rubbed my eyes. The phone screen was all 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZPWGuzBUE
blurring. "I stayed up all night and slept on the floor."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxwumYDPAC
"Ya, you better not come with us, my little panda," said Seungri. "You need a whole lot of rest."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6FtLowzwb4
"You're right." I soon 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATpcwEcE0o
dialled Collins number and asked him what time the plane would actually 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJrDV65kMi
arrive and that I wouldn't be able to go.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHOznjyI8qI
"He said they might come at nine in the evening," I said when I cut the call. I was so sleepy I felt like I couldn't stand up.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrn12Z2IPwG
"Well, since we are all done here, you can go back to the hotel and rest," said Taeyang. "We will take you."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmKrs2wd2F
"Alright. Thanks."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3uROO8yP3
"I'm coming too," said Daesung.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxK8Fmiv0X
"And so will I," said Seungri.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiTGhlx9Be8
"Guys, it's fine. Taeyang and Hyo-rin will take me," I said with a small smile on my face as I faced Seungri and Daesung.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5af9QcGve
Immediately I left the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXWeNbG935f
studio with Taeyang and Hyo-rin, Hyo-rin couldn't help but say, "was it 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZZ5BOMZpT
just me or Daesung and Seungri were fighting over you?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUyOJ3LL4Kw
"Pfft! Fighting over me? How?" I asked trying my best not to smile through my tired face.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7BV5sTv87y
"Well, the time Seungri was massaging you, Daesung was totally jealous," Hyo-rin said. "What do you think, Tae?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOpqn2KgygE
"Well, I think they were just playing around," said Taeyang as we entered the elevator.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1M3DOn8VHf
Phew! Taeyang hadn't 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiyIYQeD7qP
noticed or else he would have agreed with Hyo-rin. But anyway, I was 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUABREggME
tired and was in no state of talking about who liked me or not.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxlvXdUvYj0
The next thing I 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzdQkdpVx6x
remember was lying on my comfy pillows back at the hotel and my eyes 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE4A9fsZPMq
roll back.I covered myself with a blanket and I felt like I was sleeping1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYoNWwC0DWy
on clouds, slowly drifting to sleep.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqodB7carks
I woke up by the sound 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjDJ6SZct7
of my phone ringing and I squinted after I opened my eyes and closed 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8pW1FZvy9
them again. I murmured as I tried to look for my phone. My arm moved 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgnMyRIt3gI
here and there on the bed and I couldn't remember where I had put my 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhnZgL4uC68
phone. I was too lazy to even open my eyes to look for it.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTg83NviV8
I reached out for the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJIx9fqdIx7
drawer beside the bed and as I fumbled on the surface looking for the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rtOCNyvpt
phone, I heard someone come in the room and before I could open my eyes,1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUuhuupixcR
I felt something in the palm of my hand. Was that my phone?1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBcJLVvIwFC
I fully opened my eyes and indeed, the phone was in my hand. I looked up and Lee was the looking down at me.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9I8eVKkJTJ
"How did you know I needed my phone?" I asked.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOdjaEqMhH
"I could hear it ringing1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdSb5d281Qv
and I was just passing by your room. Thought you would still be asleep 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ye2v4pGoX
but when I came in you were struggling to find it," Lee answered.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ058ZuJYCZc
"Thanks," I said as I 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52pLgWkKr0
sat up on the bed. My phone had stopped ringing and I had to wait till I1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySFMrQhYoy
could let my eyes adjust to see who had called.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDjPrXyDDV
"I hope this is the last time you ever stay up all night," said Lee. "You looked really tired when you came back."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmD0BsJpxuR
"You know I will keep on doing it time and again," I said as I looked at my phone. I had two missed calls.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjulkduxC2p
"Never mind. I'll order supper. You must be hungry."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvdbdeTA8RK
"Thanks. I'll be out in a minute."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJ0bQ7ZP68
Lee left the room and I 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfSWRrdvWo
went on to look at my phone. I had missed calls from Zoey, and this was 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVF8n7fv7xu
just 9:30 PM. They must have already landed.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCEkt9BcI9g
"Hey, Lee," I called out to Lee as I found her watching a Korean drama series holding a bowl of popcorn. "Is Collins around?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3piVwrtRrj
"No," Lee answered, putting popcorn in her mouth.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZ8BZdB8uA
I joined her on the couch and took a handful of popcorn from the bowl. "Did he tell you where he went?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgogHTsm1W2
"No. But I bet it's got to do with what he told us this morning."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwossyV9n0H
"Of course." I rolled my eyes. "I should have known. Are you watching Boys Over Flowers?" I pointed at the TV screen.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPhpGDLtgFU
"Yes, it is. Your supper is on the table. Go get your plate and come over and sit. This series is so awesome."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2t4EnVFsoq
I dashed over to the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcc7iKD4jLS
dining table where there was a plate of spaghetti and meatballs. I 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy2k03Nbjzt
quickly dashed back to the couch and the two of us watched the series.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWro3S08MT
It was now 10 PM and 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpZDGFVYLZs
Zoey and the others still hadn't arrived. I looked at my phone to see if1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdL4T6MCTYF
there were any messages or missed calls but nothing. I wonder where 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60hJioDt2U
they were right now.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZxNv6CPYH
"Hey, what's wrong?" Lee asked as she looked at me. The episode had ended and a commercial came up.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMfog98ajUT
"Nothing. I was wondering why these guys are not back yet."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzfAFROQLMC
"Who knows. I just hope they didn't get into any trouble, even on the road." Lee laughed.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF6GvCBTmur
"I hope not. After what happened at Caribbean Bay, I don't think they would want to go through something like that again."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcoRqLpfPHI
"Why? You don't want to help them out again?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5q3PTcXep2
"Nope. I already had my own share of getting those guys out of trouble."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPW7sjYqibL
"True."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7HpyUevC7I
We soon heard the elevator doors opening and we both got up from the couch to the hallway to see who had arrived.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4lyTvyd9y
Two bell boys came out 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡArHIkUrk70
of the elevator first and I was confused until I saw they were bringing 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjzRg3Se9GE
in boxes and wrapped packages. Lee and I looked at each other.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlwSvoqsfi
"Zoey." We both said at the same time.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDw9iuxSsoO
There were so many gift 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTF0ipJ4Cwo
boxes and packages from Paris, Lee and I had to help out with the bell 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ38RnQjhea
boys with bringing everything in. Some of the boxes also had to come 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSuVDgMRiuX
into the lounge. I was glad Collins wasn't here yet. He was going to be 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWo1EUbfdo
so pissed.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaUTEjxxk6c
"Where is Zoey?" I asked one of the bell boys as we put in some boxes in the lounge.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkhN4uciV5b
"They are downstairs," he answered.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbksQDNFCjh
After we were done putting in the packages, Lee and I followed the bell boys into the elevator heading to the ground floor.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmKr7zyFqJT
When the doors flew 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡats8kfhW0k
open, I saw the Toxins and BigBang in the lobby all indulged in some 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4d3VSjmcE
conversation. Even Hyo-rin was there. They didn't seem to notice Lee and1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtksT11Y1EU
I until Daniel looked towards the elevator.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4k7qaZZJc6
"Sam! Lee!" Daniel exclaimed and he ran towards me.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxh7Rp8yG3
"Hey!" I was surprised when he came to hug me. "You've never come running towards me like this in a while."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡly9IEQ1lOU
"I just missed you," said Daniel. "You too, Lee."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk08Dq41hrX
As Daniel hugged Lee, Mike came to hug me. I was even more surprised.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdMWfNx2aln
"Guys, you've been away for a day and you're acting like you've been away for months," I said.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzf8k4JGp3
"Paris was nice, but not without you, Sam," said Mike.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0HDd1q5V3X
"Don't tell me Zoey was acting like a control freak," said Lee teasingly.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8okVBZbgQ
"Hey," Zoey came over to us. "I tried to be really reasonable this time around. Don't blame me."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8vjnU8op0
"We aren't blaming you for anything, Zoey," I said. "How was Paris?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5155UhFxMf
Zoey hugged me instead. "I missed you so much, my little kitty!"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4rxehRaeEg
I raised an eyebrow. 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4v6rGwuF6g
Something was definitely up this time. Christine also came to join in 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzAoyB6eJUg
the hug. What did these guys do in Paris for them to behave like this?1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbKDOTHvSc
"Okay. Enough," I said as I shook off Zoey and Christine away from me. "Can someone please tell me why you're acting like this?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeLuv4ze7vy
"Everyone just missed 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItDLQR6ZVh
you. That's all," this time it was TOP who answered as he came towards 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡike2GizxP8
me with his arms outstretched. "Aren't you also going to give me a hug?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnrG4a5hzwS
I rolled my eyes at him,1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuD40pQdEm9
feeling rather hilarious that he had asked for a hug. I took a few 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLib0DSPcMn
steps towards him. I couldn't understand why I had a stupid smile on my 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVaBmMddeY1
face when I hugged him.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF17hascad0
"I missed you too, TOP," I said after we broke away from each other.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDUsoNxGypM
"Wait! You missed TOP 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuAnjbZuamw
but not us?" Zoey asked. "I'm so upset. After buying you all those gifts1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFCDkUhQEWZ
and you didn't miss me? I thought you were my best friend."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6dZAU303J
I always loved it when 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3IZUyb45iN
Zoey acted like a jealous best friend. I turned to look at her with a 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4RrzUIO92n
smile and before I could reply, someone else did instead.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSeFA9gpvhq
"Don't mind her, Zoey. Looks like she only cares about TOP instead of anyone else."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡni7Nd9zBio
For a moment, that voice1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05PoTPFs3U
sent a chill down my spine and I didn't even want to turn around. I 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspnbO4PIDY
clenched and unclenched my fists. His voice was so full of bitterness it1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoGddYtHTQn
almost sent me into an outrage. I don't know why this time around, I 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgFgmnsRXVn
wasn't afraid or scared of what G-Dragon thought of me. I was tired that1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7vzwQ8idk
he was still acting the same way he had left.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXtZB0f21r5
I was really confused. I1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡunUv750hSF
wasn't so clear why he was mad at me. And I hated the fact that I had 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvpAkTyaG6u
to think around in circles just to figure out what was wrong with him. 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfBqDwtw90O
This time it wasn't the jealousy he had for TOP. It felt way more 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3EwWt5kCp
personal and it had to do with me.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH3IeYjejEs
I had no other choice 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHNfBU2029
but to turn around to face him. I made sure that my face didn't reveal 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQCe25gbYLw
how I truly felt. G-Dragon was standing right next to Hyo-rin and 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVR9YRbVc4
Taeyang. I managed to put up a smile before I could say anything.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFOf3DKP7l
"Hi, GD. How was Paris?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9yDRh6OwAZ
By the look on his face,1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOy2h9ZN1Rn
I bet he didn't expect me to greet him. I wasn't going to give him want1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22pgEanLPZ
he wanted. If I had answered by talking back at him, things weren't 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6bYLRn6xD
going to end pretty tonight.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWumiTOkuw
"Paris was okay," G-Dragon answered. "I heard you managed to finish the song and played it to everyone today."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCSWD9zSdOf
"Ya, I did."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDCjTBNhZX
"The song will make you want to dance all day long," said Daesung.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW25ymUeJtc
"Ya, it's pretty awesome," said Seungri.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcs7U1pnpuc
"Can't wait to hear it,"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6YO1dg5gq
said Daniel as he came to stand beside me and nudge me by the shoulder.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvRSMPVhCSC
"You should give us a preview when we go upstairs."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmoazEvjy6V
"Anything for you, 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9cRUsqHdi3
guys," I said as I pinched my brother's cheek. "That's how much I care 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfoN9qr3bk9
about you. Unlike some people who think I don't miss them." I turned to 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcuVsRtEnBe
look at Zoey.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU1RROzarfI
"Don't mind her," said Christine. "You just know how she is."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4dEqLnuz1
"You guys better go and rest," said Taeyang. "We have a busy day tomorrow."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡozn1mS6Giv
"Okay, we better go then," said Seungri. "See you guys tomorrow."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6T6xfWHtsl
After saying bye to each other, we all went our separate ways.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdyVs9ZjG7Y
"You know Collins is 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOeXLtDGPEx
going to kill you, right? With all those gifts you came with," I said to1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQOhYYjs9EE
Zoey and the others as we were all in the elevator going up to our 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡne4o9sCqik
floor.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJKZ2MFtxKi
"Don't worry, we also got a few presents for him too," said Mike.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SEGA2nIQl
"And you think bringing him gifts will help?" Lee asked. "You guys are in a lot of trouble."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WpLxP5xxi
"This won't be the first time," said Zoey. "I mean, we're always in trouble no matter the cause."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqwLnGsdnGM
I looked at Zoey and wondered why she would say that. Did they have a little problem in Paris? I hope not.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rmGxINkL3
"We better sort out all 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAsbLfTzD7F
the gifts before Collins gets here. You don't want to get on his bad 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQ2iZevemJ
side, like you usually do," I said as we got out of the elevator on our 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKSZYeY6Q5
floor.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsBdZsaJy2R
Sorting out all the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGrxXydguX
packages and gifts took a whole lot of time than I had expected. The 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqAkMuwshQr
gifts in the hall and also in the lounge were just too many. These guys 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡukBfGb7Au9
had really bought a lot of stuff.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfPQ31eXSby
The boys had brought a 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6D1ODdwLo
handful of video games, including some expensive designer t-shirts and 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfR4yK2vAOu
jeans from Chanel. Expensive French cologne for men and watches with 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHfWiGtjTo4
expensive designer shoes.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGinby4dKLh
As for Zoey and 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDZCpQmJmt
Christine, well, you know what girls would like to buy if they ever go 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU4MlAbRmEP
to Paris. Designer shoes and dresses. Expensive perfumes and Zoey also 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNUxBR17Jf5
bought along with her some expensive jewellery.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ70TfXEBCss
"G-Dragon was helping me1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7wtbfmNGn
out with picking the jewellery," said Zoey when she showed us a pretty 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTEOaj4pGV2
gold necklace with matching gold earrings.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIZVz5EoMj
"Wow, very pretty," said Lee as she looked at the jewellery.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmY6nfkBpfP
"Ya, very pretty," I said dully, looking at it briefly.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXlkVhUgZuh
We were sitting on the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1e4xIBH4yV
floor in the lounge sorting out the gifts. The ladies were huddled up in1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2vfle3hOAK
one circle while the boys were next to us also sorting out their own 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASKIKNfeog
stuff with Collins' too.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGicF34CKH
"We also bought a beautiful necklace for you too," said Christine looking over the boxes behind her. "Where is it?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡexJQueWv9c
I was also searching for any jewellery box behind me when I stumbled over a box of Lindtt chocolates.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfvBNKBKCfh
"Yum, is this for me?" I asked as I got the box and looked greedily at it.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGIYjJQUQC4
"Hey! It's for all of us," Zoey warned. "I know you love chocolates, but you don't have to be so selfish."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBhGgWKo8P
"Since when have I ever been selfish?" I asked, as I opened the box.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyJvCpYkJsI
"Okay, you've never been selfish. But when it comes to chocolates...."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ52GIh3xaQ
"'But when it comes to chocolates.....'" I mimicked her. "At least I know how to share."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5pBqmnfKM
I distributed the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvaiOtbHPVY
chocolates to everyone. Lee was trying on a pair of heels which looked 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAARiv2Grsh
so good on her while Zoey kept on looking for the jewellery box which 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡba8KA2XSiF
was meant for me.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMr7Xs8c0nh
"Where is it?" Zoey muttered to herself as she looked at the other packages on the floor.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwODur7DhRE
"Don't worry about it," I said as I walked over to her. "We will find it tomorrow. We can't go through all these right now."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDBUmbaAY0
"Ya, you're right," said Zoey. She had a gloomy look on her face. I could tell that she had bought that gift with lots of love.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfgH0t6Hyng
"But we better pack up some of these stuff," said Lee. "This place is in a mess and Collins might....."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwtToVMwRU
When Lee just mentioned his name, the sound of the elevator doors opening was heard. Collins was here!1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8DR30OftGA
For a moment, time 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0uegvTTIsq
seemed to have stopped and all of us in the lounge had stopped along 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhchY0n7SF
with it. We all had our mouths open, looking at each other in shock. We 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnWN6V0t7k
hadn't finished packing up and Collins would freak out when he sees this1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Y4RCERxm8
mess.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡug2nlyG8Vv
"Hey, guys I'm here!" came Collins voice in the hall.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy9pUYZspJG
"What are we going to do?" Mike whispered as he looked at me.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfvX4x9rck
"I don't know," I whispered. This was bad.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLl6lj3aV5d
"Hide," Zoey whispered.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr582Ub4vy4
For me, it kind of felt 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzoBhMQiThT
pointless to hide. But not for the other four Toxins. Zoey went to the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37m7pGyVFk
dining table and hid under the table. Christine, Mike and Daniel hid 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVVkwTe4Ol
behind the couch. Lee and I just stood there, static.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubrtt23tHn
When Collins came to the1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFPWa7mM3C
lounge, he stopped on his tracks. He was obviously trying to take 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeN19cjErBe
everything in. His mouth was slightly open, trying to say something, but1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRh38HIhJ8l
he just couldn't.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl3u9XDgeR8
"Hey, Collins," I said.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxhFY3NkjJ
"What is all this?" Collins asked when as he took a step into the lounge, looking around.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBs48f7wOu
"Christmas came a little early," said Lee, with a smile.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVUAK0mEZK
Collins looked over at Lee and noticed the heels she was wearing. "Those look nice."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWPRcC6bKjX
"Thanks."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFBRroOTg5p
"Where are they?" Collins turned to look at me.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8labN9b9zn
"Who?" I asked.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl8OYBWIocl
"You know who I'm talking about."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLi3Ibo2IVk
"If you're talking about Santa's little helpers, they left a while ago." I said as I folded my arms.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3KHLdKjXph
"Santa's little helpers, alright," said Collins as he carefully walked around, avoiding to step on anything.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡas6TMJMXJj
Collins went over to the1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJTeGZCFQtV
dining table. There were a few gifts on the table and down on the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXT44wj53PO
floor. Collins moved the presents down on the floor and Zoey was beaming1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZMdzGvAEc
up at him.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9dPIa7vEt
"Hey, Collins! Looks like you found one elf who stayed behind," said Zoey, beaming up at him.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoO1jWTWu8z
"Where are the others?" Collins asked.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4EHpW3AaTk
Christine, Daniel and Mike came out from behind the couch and they all said, "hey, Collins!"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOS8r4qJZpT
"Guys, what is all this?" Collins said as he looked around the lounge.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLaeyVYiS26
"Gifts from Paris," said Zoey.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNMXLu7Q42
"But why did you get all this stuff? I hope you didn't use your credit cards."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHLvzaN5AL
"Well..." Mike looked down at his feet.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHhjY8SpFHV
"Okay, great." Collins looked worn out if not frustrated. "I hope you didn't finish up all the money in your accounts."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUtW7NZ7M3
"I doubt it," said Daniel. "We made sure to be careful with what we were buying."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNwPFP3uBw
"Ya, most of the stuff weren't bought by us, you know? If it came to the designer clothes, it was all from Chanel," said Zoey.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtaEh7nRcmN
"I'll know for myself when I get to see your bank accounts," said Collins.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnB7pgwsWTJ
"Here, we brought you an1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmoq98sFNY
expensive watch too," said Daniel as he gave Collins a fancy looking 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHGstJ3Ww8v
box. A watch from Rolex. It was definitely expensive.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWyQqHwkAIl
"That's because you're the best manager ever," said Christine.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡogf8lGCOOp
"Thanks," said Collins, 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxZZSAUiUa
as he looked at the watch, looking rather impressed. "Do me a favour and1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVi1nxWrtRG
finish clearing up all this. And also bring my gifts to my room. Okay?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaSbYfQMkbo
Collins smiled at the rest of us and left the lounge.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIcfxLvliaL
"Looks like he isn't really upset," said Lee. "He would have blown a big fuse already."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDuxkxOeVX
Lee was right. Collins 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMHVOUqrpkc
wasn't really upset, but that smile he gave us before he left, made me 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiMHE6L0gzu
realise something. He might be upset, but I felt like he had already 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJq1r3cDmc
arranged something to get back at us. And why not that which he and Yang1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVmABg2LlAY
Hyun-suk have planned for us? That for me would be the perfect payback.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGLtGbIjYW
That's if it is that bad enough to stun us all.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Jmei3CR3W
"Okay, people, let's get done with this," said Zoey. "It's almost close to midnight."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡodTUClC38R
We continued sorting out1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNBuiNa5Fzw
everything and by midnight, the lounge had cleared up a little except a1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMOcxeCqGN
few wrappers on the floor which we picked up and threw away in the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpXTyWbQIPS
waste bin which was overflowing with wrappers and empty boxes. And I 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmmvwzDYDqm
planned with the others to sing them the song tomorrow because it was 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWVYfyz57W
already too late and we all needed to rest.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNM9L5yjqw
We hadn't managed to 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRfLknPxnW
find the jewellery box with my necklace. Zoey thought maybe TOP or GD 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrWhxbIMpNi
had it. I didn't like the thought that GD might have it. Getting it back1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1VjQdNU1M
from him was going to be difficult, looking at our current situation of1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8VqM1UjVN
course.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXb3i0oFIFc
When we were all done and had retired to our rooms, Zoey quickly pushed me into the room when I was just coming into the room.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLbBxRzp5D
"Zoey, what's wrong with you?" I asked when she made me sit on the bed.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF63Aa0cEpW
Zoey went by the door and checked in the hall if there was anyone. Then she came back in and stood before me.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xHy5cmQkG
"What is it, Zoey?" I asked. "What's so urgent?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvTP152umq
"Nothing much," said Zoey. "I just needed you in the room."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡphgVGbrFqM
I looked at her with an 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm28yA5DQKn
eyebrow raised. Something was definitely up and she looked like she was 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgs7HbJ6yBz
stuck in between telling me what was bothering her or not.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdpf9PZTY4G
"So, tell me what happened in Paris," I said as I took my Mr Panda into my arms. "How was the fashion show?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMJGdAHfb5
"It was fine," Zoey replied as she walked to the closet to get her pyjamas.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvT17YalvIO
"Fine?" I looked at 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN57jZKqjFR
Zoey's back and then I looked at Mr Panda then back at her again. 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qIqU3UhSt
"Knowing you, you would've said it was so exquisite or it was so 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7cwrdRn4Cq
awesome. What's happened to you? This isn't my best friend."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQEi9xcdES
"Nothing happened," said Zoey as she took out her pyjamas and came back to put them on the bed.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡArabX3ErUr
"Tell me, please!" I 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCijnCGGfLt
begged. I even made Mr Panda on my lap beg as well putting his tiny cute1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgQ3M6qvF6
paws together. "Nothing is not an excuse. You look like you want to 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUePWt0gFxy
tell me something. So tell me!"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ44DmbGoBz
"Keep your voice down!" Zoey snapped at me as she tried to cover my mouth but I slapped her hand away.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHh7Xp05bc9
"Then what's wrong, Zoey? Did something happen in Paris?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkBj06TqbIU
"Well, nothing much happened," said Zoey as she sat down on her bed and looked lost in thought.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9L0VnErUTR
"Hello! Earth to Zoey!" I snapped my fingers in front of Zoey's face. "You look so lost. Please tell me what's bothering you."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWD2alejUbr
Zoey paused and looked at me for a few seconds. Then she slumped her shoulders and sighed. "Okay, I will tell you."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQP3uCPKkMS
I felt really excited 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCw3BrrNhDi
like I was about to watch a blockbuster movie. I hugged Mr Panda close 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMO5WpZ6rL2
to me. Ready for what's about to drop out of Zoey's mouth.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMUSgUx78OQ
"I don't know how I 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM1MqD9w3Hi
should tell you this," said Zoey as she played with her fingers and was 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbtoVHIrKx6
staring somewhere else. "But when we got to Paris, we went to the Eiffle1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ttESDNkMm
Tower."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3s8Pqq9o91
"Ya, I saw the picture. 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZtuEfKB9h1
So much for going to Paris without me," I muttered. "You know I have 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ45VEqJRVEu
always wanted to visit the Eiffle Tower."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1n6FpKWcJA
"Aren't you going to let me talk?" Zoey asked.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo37qJ4pIuK
"Okay. Continue." I pressed my chin onto Mr Panda's head.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡozpFI8NS5z
"So we got to the Tower and we were having a good time as usual." Zoey paused as she licked her lips. "Then something happened."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxs3tV3LuP
"What?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ991kYdHHa9
"When we got to the top 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡconwwGpqV9
of the Eiffle Tower, we were enjoying the view and I was so caught up 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazRJl0c3dI
with looking at the bright lights of the city I didn't notice that the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJvXUqpLUy
others had left and it was just GD and I."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5oSwcgo7s
My eyes grew wide. I 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8XlMTL8HEZ
knew where all this was going already. And before I could let my best 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡano2wG1uIE
friend share her magical moment herself, I blurted it out.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZy3U0UKDl
"You two kissed."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQyPmNLSVV
"What the...! Sam!" Zoey hit the bed with her hands. "How could you!"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡivtTN5HGk9
"I'm sorry." I hissed and covered my mouth. That wasn't supposed to happen.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa5jwSbEnnH
"Great! How did you know?" Zoey still looked pissed, but yet surprised.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx4Atjwh3GR
"Well, you were in one 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSevjOD2lMI
of the most romantic cities in the world and you two were left alone, so1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIYGh2fvyf4
for me, that was a perfect romantic scene."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZxHIlXLDY
"Smart."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBXktchiYTQ
"Thanks. So, how was it?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDqJFdCGZt
Zoey smiled like a fool,1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpyTVWMbraL
now that the secret was out in the open. "It was so unexpected but yet 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRxezUaZfO
it was so magical at the same time."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxTziqXEHQ
I couldn't help but 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJewIDXBYZ1
smile. It's been a long time since she smiled like that. The last time 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡII0V5iV3QE
she did, it was back in high school when she was going out with the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbm3BqtWpR0
hottest and yet popular guy in school and they kissed in front of 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxkKrb1a8F
everyone at the prom.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡolLtxYswwo
"Oh my gosh, Sam," said Zoey rubbing her cheeks. She was blushing. "I can't stop smiling to myself."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsbCFyue8nI
"So you guys kissed, and then what?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWpBvOCleV6
"Nothing really. We had to pretend in front of the others when we went down the Eiffle Tower like nothing had happened."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDukaOzh4PE
"And? Anything else? 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOAr3dTl9e
What happened at the top of the Tower after you kissed?" I leaned 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuBaRPXRUaY
forwards with Mr Panda also eager to hear.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbvzK7oOZiI
"When we were on top of 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSvIpyAGIwx
the Tower, when we kissed, he told me he liked me and kept on saying the1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWU3xwAH1g
most sweetest words ever. How he had always liked me."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6xzs9NOH3b
Well that's a bummer. 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1bUKG3v4Hu
But to be honest, I expected it. I remembered he had also said those 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡieFXW4pq32
words to me too. But that was when he was drunk. Could it be that he 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQiSNxGZMvM
really liked Zoey and not me?1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJTvCUNCojp
I brushed that off. Why 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYdGmD8piQ
should I even care? I knew from the very beginning that GD wasn't in his1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbz1cyDHtBr
right state of mind when he told me he liked me. I didn't really get my1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUlUHufx3Qu
hopes up with it.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6ROWMUOOH
"I even told Christine," said Zoey. "I just hope you don't tell Collins."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZFnZtER1mv
"And why should I tell him?" I asked, shrugging my shoulders.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhNzrLx30CN
"Ya, you're right. And don't tell your brothers. They are going to make fun of me."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbBrCLRjqiM
"Telling my brothers is one thing I wouldn't do."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS69m6PuH1H
"Thanks, Sam."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBrfdIy81d
"Hey, what are best friends for? We better go to sleep. We might leave for YG tomorrow really early."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDdJeC538Eq
"Okay." Zoey hopped on her bed like a little child and started to change into her pyjamas.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiHErZiIV2P
I left Mr Panda on the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWBismdwHIw
bed and also went to the closet to get my pyjamas. When I changed, I 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ae3MwqoaS
quickly went into the bed covers and put Mr Panda right beside me. I had1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVEQdiLsNHM
gotten used to the stuffed panda being around whenever I slept. I 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm8afYx4sqX
looked over at Zoey who was already in her bed covers.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAZUYpTRtGR
"Good night, Zoey," I said to her with a smile.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01z6ATcVaC
"Good night," she replied. She turned to the other side to flip the switch beside the bed on the wall and the room went dark.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYiSvwwbOOd
I laid my head on the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyAbqERedP0
pillow and just as I closed my eyes, I could hear Zoey giggling to 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3BHspHdYfH
herself. She was obviously texting G-Dragon on her phone and I couldn't 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2et0SFfHTE
blame her. She was so happy when she talked to me about kissing him on 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOqC3zxtuHN
the Eiffle Tower. And it was also probably a good thing that I had never1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJbPut1HmM
told Zoey what happened on Friday when GD came in drunk and told me 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4oRAFNL1B
that he liked me. I could only imagine what the whole scenario would 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSp7JUrxsYs
have been.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0PeIoLbUW
Zoey would have only 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9fZwaeW2U
felt guilty about it and would have confronted GD about playing the two 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQ6NPLcRVG
of us around. It wasn't like he kissed me anyway, so maybe I was a bit 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQRzx9VfXE
on the safe side. But it was still good that I didn't tell her anything.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnrLyB7yoTA
To be honest, I was happy for Zoey. And when I heard her giggling again, I realised that I wouldn't want to hurt her.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAzSKiXmhEe
I pulled Mr Panda closer1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡen5XpfBC2L
and cuddled him. I was soon drifting away into a deep sleep, eager for 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMrkKYjBGyp
what's to come when I woke up in the morning.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJaA6vzpYSd
***1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAv1FNlHUID
I was given a round of 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJjZ8sHHMA
applause when I finished singing the song. I was in the lounge with the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA7B9jodkpe
Toxins and I stood before them as I sang the song. I didn't have a 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLeZmDrI5O
guitar with me but I managed to sing it anyway.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGrcoIJHmH
"The song is incredible," said Zoey. "I never thought it would be this good."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFbXVVI8JaD
"And your Korean is good too," said Christine.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1UCPkBJkk4
"I can't wait to start working on the song," said Mike.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQ2jiPIDWJ
"Then you better eat 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpzogay3tCp
your breakfast," said Lee as she came in with the room service bringing 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJns07MDC1K
in our breakfast. "We have a long day ahead."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDbPjvE7og
We went over to the dinning table and settled down. We were all having toast for breakfast.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDK8Uf4av3
"I can't wait for us to 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡadhkmvh6pK
go to the studio," said Zoey happily as she jumped excitedly on her seat1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGJLmOchu7
beside me. I could only tell why.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3Caep29Gz
Christine who sat 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHIETAnc8y
opposite from Zoey coughed and I could tell that she just coughed out 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZlzsN9PErG
G-Dragon's name. Luckily, the boys hadn't even noticed. And by the look 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXyKUwWwDcA
on Lee's face, sitting directly opposite me, she already knew about Zoey1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXk9Tk3rHsL
and G-Dragon.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdv8KMzPDkd
When we were done 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPM8XfIMZfZ
eating, we headed downstairs and as usual, there were paparazzi, 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufsKpYElAC
reporters and fans too. We entered into the SUV and we arrived at YG.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW1BmFuNYs9
"Hey, Sam," Zoey called out to me when we got out of the car. I turned to look at her.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4cFiI2cUy
"What is it, Zoey?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXSCEqNxK3w
"Do I look okay? I mean, is my hair on point, my make up?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn1JLUwwaut
Mike growled loudly behind us as he came out of the car with Daniel right behind him. "The drama queen is at it again."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCDZq6Qct7
"Can't you just zip up your mouth and let me worry about myself?" Zoey asked, rolling her eyes.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42g0ggA60Q
"That's the problem," 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuVtiugeqJG
said Mike as he came to stand in front of Zoey. "Once you start acting 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxeaNfLlP5A
like this, something is definitely up or you're just trying to impress 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDJdXVj1YK
someone. You've been acting really weird ever since we got to Paris."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvxGPv6G4q
Mike turned away and 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBf8WaiGt9
headed straight for the entrance with Daniel. I could have sworn I saw 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ63BiODv37Q
him smirk before he walked away. Could it be that he might know 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLqndDgpkFI
something?1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZoaBJUleRg
"Don't mind him," said Christine. "You know how these boys like to mock us. Let's go."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhOPqP4eTK
We agreed with Christine1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZ9qGvXiQ7
and we went into the YG building with Lee and Collins. We got to the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0UCh3SROax
studio and I wasn't expecting the BigBang members to be there before us.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYOexAKajG
Finding them here earlier than us was a bit of a surprise.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJDTcJSsxv
"Hey, guys!" Zoey greeted everyone.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5RYylOfY2t
"Hey, how are you," said G-Dragon as he came and gave her a hug. I bypassed them heading to the couch sitting next to Daesung.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRBROuDcyyk
"Hey, are you alright?" Daesung asked.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyojvYdxzRC
"Oh, I'm fine," I answered. "I slept a little late last night since these guys came with so many gifts."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBh7p34HLL9
"I also feel like I 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLOPwXOP9j
didn't get enough sleep," said Christine as she came to sit beside me. 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf1FYiQJYyM
She was obviously trying to avoid the two love birds in the room. The 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLCyU0Kex3P
two of them seem to be in a deep conversation at the moment.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBfqebe1qan
"Do you think we should 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPKQzRSRkY
start?" Seungri asked as he came to stand by the couch and also noticed 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuVDBj8NYWg
how close Zoey and G-Dragon were.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQFWRbICfp
"What's up with them?" Mike asked as he stood in front of me with his arms folded.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaSK5suaz9G
"Can't you see they are having a conversation?" Christine asked.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBHKCRasWE
"Well, I think we should start working on the song," said TOP who sat next to Daesung.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa0skoKJEvW
"I think someone has to tell these guys," said Taeyang. "Sam? May you do the honours?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQXB8h914X
I looked over at Taeyang who sat at the far end of the couch with my eyebrow raised.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUsQUndW2I
"You do it," I said. "Why should I?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡONL9xHI4sT
"Because everyone listens to you," said Daniel.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSWSPPbCvfi
Everyone around me shook their heads. I sighed.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrgmrpxBzS2
I stood up from the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbodFlA58C2
couch and I went over to the multi track console where I had left my 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7bwuyXrJb
notebook yesterday. Zoey and G-Dragon were still indulged in their 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhM56CnE6N
conversation.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLwHjx7bDK
When I went back, I 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8cvUaq1iBw
signalled to the others who were standing to sit down. When everyone on 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlpfPp41frP
the couch was settled, I cleared my throat so loud, hopeful that I 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3fEZ18PJGe
caught Zoey and G-Dragon's attention.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdECWKHZnVY
"Ahem! So, we have to agree on who will sing the first verse," I said as I looked at the notebook.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa0J9UqZv5A
"I was thinking, G-Dragon and Zoey could start," said Daniel, as loud as he could.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3sa4DaDf0H
"That's not really a bad idea." I nodded my head.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjWfPTavmz
"Hey, what's going on?" Zoey asked as she and G-Dragon turned to look at us.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfyMJBzy2O
"Oh, you guys better come here because we're dividing the lyrics amongst ourselves," I said as I turned to look at the two.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYpt7cryVpj
"You should have told us," said G-Dragon.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTjEItP345
"Well, I didn't want to disturb you two. You looked really busy. And the two of you will be doing the first verse."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQDANfWMfi
G-Dragon gave me a weird1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS3tOLULtR5
look and all I could do was smirk at him. My plan had worked to get 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqk4KCvKFyS
their attention. I went back to looking at the lyrics while he and Zoey 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh9GodoTvzS
took their place on the couch.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE4iPtLekBw
"Christine and Daesung, I1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqqagWTNbIv
think one of you could sing the bridge after the first verse and then 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJi1VeXDLz
the other on the second bridge after the second verse," I suggested.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbpRSaJJy64
"Then you and I will sing the chorus," said Taeyang.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2rFFzD75x
"Ya, we will sing the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Z2qHBucMv
chorus," I said. "And Seungri and Daniel will sing the last verse. So, 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOe61UFlO0b
now that we are done with all this, let me just give you guys a preview 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRwJgJ69Ea
of the song and how its supposed to be laid out. I hope the music 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnVs07vg2V
producer has the lyrics printed out."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyN8psq6eiR
"He brought in the printed lyrics for each of us this morning," said TOP, his eyes on the table behind me.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4m4DZF0RR8
I looked behind me on the small table. I hadn't noticed the papers. I took them and gave each member a sheet.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF8kaloduUU
Afterwards, I sang out the song so that everyone can have a layout on how it should be sung.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zedIqMft7
Then we all went over 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR5JvQCbhJG
the console so that everyone could listen to the instrumental the music 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJaVrtZrSEX
producer had made with me and the others yesterday.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wgR5uUkOh
"So, what do you think of the instrumental?" I asked after making them listen.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh50XrqDyiF
"So catchy," said Daniel. "I like it."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Xj9GxCtyE
"Me too," said TOP.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsYWXxN912z
"Then, let's get started," said Daesung.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0z91Egwo8Z
"Wait, a minute," said G-Dragon and everyone turned to look at him.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4OPqWpyq4
I didn't look up at him 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5mzJiPgz2
though since I was the one seated at the console and everyone else stood1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqExmKBXlW
behind and beside me. All I did was just sit there and rub my forehead.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIyhGtDYBN
Something told me he was going to say something I wasn't ready to hear.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0AoJkKxfAt
"What's wrong, GD?" Christine asked. "Is there something wrong?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWclcljXp1
I started to relax my 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0HRSbBBQF
temples with my fingers and my elbows leaning on the console. G-Dragon 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKvyJNafZUR
had paused for a while and I felt impatient.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3C5aOWIPA
"The instrumental is okay and all, but I feel there is something missing."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkpAePnEfeu
"What's missing?" I asked as I turned around on the chair to look at G-Dragon.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZOXQfANUL
G-Dragon came to sit 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhRysOzjAS
next to the chair beside me and I wondered what was running in his mind.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnu9ROcP1YG
The instrumental was just fine and it's not like we hadn't gone through1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhLR1w3DSA
it with the music producer yesterday. I wondered what had gotten into 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2PiClzoBW8
him now. Everyone liked it. But what was wrong with it for him?1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMMDQJbRAU
"I'll have to listen to this for a while and I'll tell what I think," said G-Dragon.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwlGDiDTihZ
"Okay, suit yourself," I said as I backed away from the console dragging the chair behind me. I stood up.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxAsnp3AzK5
G-Dragon got the headphones and at the same time, the music producer came in the room.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVNM3oZvYds
"So, should we start putting in the lyrics into the song?" the music producer asked.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl56OiZvrP6
"We can't because G-Dragon here thinks the tune and melodies need a little changing," I said.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2pJ5cKC0y
"Really?" the music producer asked.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0h6oPQRSz
"Well, that's what he said," said Taeyang. "It all seems fine to me. I also don't see why it needs changing."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUe4JmwKhL
"Let's just see what he is going to come up with," I said as I folded my arms.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZbWaAuSWGo
"Give him a chance, 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJTCcxkYQS
Sam," said Zoey as she sat next to G-Dragon who kept on listening to the1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbLaSK7DGuY
instrumental through the headphones. She also got another pair of 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksCiWUvWdk
headphones and put them on.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtOocBUgbvR
"Okay, this is 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI48mXC4i0c
confusing," said the music producer looking at all of us. "Let me also 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMGlriR59Wv
join them and see what needs some changing."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvayvQ7rXQO
I nodded and the music producer went over to join G-Dragon and Zoey.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNlIg7pdTC
"So what should we do now?" Seungri asked.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR5oIZf8JST
"Chill, I guess," said Mike.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOyjvAxvCc
The others looked at me 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIeKTTmXoW5
when I didn't say a word. They were all looking at me obviously thinking1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvkY9pXaN38
I would come up with a better solution to all this just to pass time.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQzNK2BdQP
"To be honest, I don't know what we should do," I replied, shrugging my shoulders.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡczE9rsDfAl
"Why can't we just go through the song?" TOP asked.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Q2nqiLkTW
"That's going to be a 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOsTQt4NyA
problem." I rubbed the back of my neck. "The tune might change a little 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSLb33ErIk
now that GD thinks it needs a little changing."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaU7f7gTmCz
"I doubt it," said Taeyang shaking his head. "We can still go through it. I don't think he can change the entire tune."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb6AzybhZWA
Something told me he might but I didn't want to scare anyone so I kept that thought to myself.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe6geE1T4sZ
"Okay let's go through the song," I said as everyone nodded their heads and sat on the couch and I went over to get the guitar.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDQDCGmpmD
I looked over at Zoey 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlx85jSNRMz
and G-Dragon. I wondered if they would really change everything. I tried1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVfiCC8ojbs
to ignore the thought, and focused on the song.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRDNhXr6XZ
I put a stool in front 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYsYMg5BHN
of the others and I sat on it like I had yesterday. With the guitar in 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhY5buIrDX
my hands, I started to play and I sang the song. After I sang it, 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zBrGhYuBG
everyone admitted that the song was good and that made me realise about 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXUxrP2cvka
what G-Dragon was up to. I tried not to look worried in front of the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQxLv6TdiO
others.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfoDYSHLWx
"Now, that we know how the song is supposed to flow, let's all sing out our parts," I said. Everyone agreed.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0LfcXiMjWF
Taeyang and I sung the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkRl52EYqdv
first verse since G-Dragon and Zoey were busy. Then Christine sung the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPxJjfLxV0
bridge, Taeyang and I sung the chorus. From that point, the song sounded1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jMlUvBP1y
great and everyone cheered.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6SYIOzaIuC
"Wow, guys, this sounds awesome," said TOP.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡizUTVF1nAX
"Mind blowing if you ask me," said Mike. "I can't wait for the second verse."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrkzeTlWGj6
"Let's give it a go then," I said and I started to play the guitar.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ50XhcyOtow
TOP started to rap the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4BqkwZG6p
second verse and then Mike followed suit. It was going on great. And 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5dfc2AVQg
while I played and the guys rapped everyone else on the couch was moving1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVj2kjVz7W
to the flow of the tune. I smiled. Everyone was having a good time.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5pxPjpkfTr
Daesung sung the bridge and then Taeyang and I sung the chorus again. This time even Christine joined in.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOJSSxAJtS
"I'm impressed," I said. "You guys really did well on the second verse."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnl64LXgKvB
"Come on, now," said Seungri. "Daniel and I want to sing our part."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJQMnSGihw
"Okay, okay." I looked at Seungri with my hand raised to calm him down. "Before you eat me alive."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3EqbGqN1hs
Daniel and Seungri sung 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmI2Q3BWuzh
the third verse beautifully, and coming to the bridge, Daesung and 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwu5JQYSxl
Christine sung the bridge together. Taeyang and I sung the chorus. In 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtXiVe8Y62m
the end we all sang the chorus together. When we were done, everyone 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmHEdRjgQQ
clapped for themselves and cheered.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOBZlUOFTtR
"That was lovely guys," I said as I smiled at the others.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0xDu6vkiC
"That sounds really good," came Yang Hyun-suk's voice behind me.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKrQRLCHfB
I almost fell off the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1uyLZ6PZqq
stool when I heard his voice. I was so caught up with the song that I 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4uZeQfgdmV
hadn't noticed Yang Hyun-suk come in the room. By the look on the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡINavCRoJWb
other's faces, they hadn't noticed him either.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvwQqBKvvt
We all stood and bowed our heads as Yang Hyun-suk came closer to us.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Guys1H78k
"I have to say, you all 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFmvwE6FeC
sounded really good. The song is just perfect," said Yang Hyun-suk with a1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjj9UxkOEV
smile. "Keep up the good work."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVg8xk9hTg
"Thank you," we all replied at the same time.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBROEmHAgm
"You're supposed to be in the live room recording the song," said Yang Hyun-suk. "Why aren't you doing so?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb1GAmRUdt7
No one said anything. We1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUaUdBCyqtg
all looked at each other expecting the other to say something. Most 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ZVVK8msIM
eyes were on me though. I always hated it when I had to do all the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmjyoaOTJ5G
talking.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCut7P6A6b2
"Umm, G-Dragon wanted to add a few things to the instrumental," I said, not looking at the manager in the eye.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMiQn1rRK9
"Add a few things or change things?" Yang Hyun-suk asked, sternly.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpu8g4nDvIu
That, I couldn't answer.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0RjGZT8Yct
Looked like he also thought like I did. The only way to find out was to1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqTLFmnEn2
listen to the instrumental ourselves.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZrCy6Qy2U
"He just said something was missing," said Taeyang.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNXQXtdIm0
"Then where is he then? Why isn't he here?" Yang Hyun-suk asked.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0J1Y5TIXeV
"He's right-" I turned around to the console. He and Zoey weren't there.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxK3zRo1Rjh
"They were here a while ago," I said as I pointed at the audio machines and the multi track console.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJfzMsP67r
"They?" Yang Hyun-suk asked.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1AqGpnAvvo
"G-Dragon, Zoey and the music producer."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5rlirrtTB
The manager shook his head. He was obviously annoyed with all this.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6YOOynBmB
"I want them back here 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmntohYSOA
right now," said Yang Hyun-suk. "I'll back in thirty minutes and if I 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡevcw5H6m7M
don't find them here, you better have a good answer for all of this."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUKo0WYNhpU
I gulped as I felt the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnc7kJ23gnk
air in the room change. He was furious all right. He was more furious 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCVQobxxuv
because he feared that G-Dragon might change everything with the song. 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSthQ6lNE8i
And we only had thirty minutes to find them or else we were toast.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzbRDEW70d
No one said anything 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0SGgCxQDsM
when Yang Hyun-suk left the studio. And this time, I was furious. I 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuVufQLVM1i
looked at the others and it looked like I wasn't the only one.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1v7NROdAdz
"Where could they have 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXwJOWOXBq2
gone all of the sudden?" Christine asked, her voice sounded like it was 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbrewdLUWo
full of rage. "They were there the last time I checked."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2GU28pypI
"They couldn't have gone far," said Daesung. "They must have been gone a few minutes."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGS1fekBfZd
"Maybe they went out for lunch," said Mike as he looked at his wrist watch. "It's almost close to lunch time."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxQkvbDHgU
"They should have told us though," said Taeyang.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5wyQSdUfb
"Then we better start 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHBFuJqEPLT
looking," I said. "I just hope they aren't out of the building or else 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAzG2q8GU54
looking for them will be difficult."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGsmXyvdgSH
We all agreed to split 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9AU9o0GCU1
up and look for them given the little time we had. I went with Christine1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5498yPAa2
and TOP looking around the other studio rooms, Mike and Daniel went 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz1BBhO9C1K
over to the dance studios. Taeyang, Seungri and Daesung went upstairs.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLSQrTT2je
All the studio rooms 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIxPnFUgxSD
were empty, so I went with Christine and TOP downstairs and asked the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbEGkPanIeZ
receptionist if she saw Zoey and G-Dragon go out.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjMx9RV7ieK
"The two of them walked out just a while ago," the receptionist answered.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM1Z4RFdHUN
I frowned and turned away from the receptionist while Christine asked, "how long ago was it?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPp9tqjacgJ
"Almost fifteen minutes."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrjy5iikoww
"Try and call them, will you?" I asked TOP.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnvRdVQ618F
He nodded and pulled out1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNc0PTMDPo7
his phone. At the same time, the elevator doors opened and my brothers 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUVzcdCSTCG
walked out of it and came towards us.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Dg6LvGy7r
"Anything?" Daniel asked.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGULW9K7J99
"They left the building," I answered with my hands on my hips. I looked over at TOP. "Have they picked up?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVqmlO72opo
"GD's phone keeps ringing and he isn't picking up," said TOP, with his phone on his ear.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmG0OZuvBl3
"Let me try to call, Zoey," said Christine pulling out her phone.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9QY28OdYy
I looked at the time on my watch. We only had fifteen minutes and Yang Hyun-suk was going to kill us all if we didn't find them.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQFNVxTkaLn
"She isn't picking up either," said Christine.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5a6yuwr8zm
"Great, these guys are going to get us into trouble," said Mike as he scratched his head.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWsttOzeTde
"If they just went for lunch they are bound to show up," said TOP.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH2vPbbR7l7
"Should we split up and look for them around town?" Daniel asked.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBI87ueeYby
"Splitting up will be risky now that Yang Hyun-suk is on our necks," said Christine.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkaVAOJzaR
I hadn't said a word 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjZ5CfzunDr
when the elevator doors opened and Daesung came out. He had a really 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdlXWcbKNH
worried look on his face. He rushed up to us and I also couldn't help 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡElpA3Mff5O
but worry.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4yjDLxmTVo
"What is it, Daesung?" I asked. "Is there something wrong?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEaZSTEYLD0
"We just met with the music producer upstairs," said Daesung. He shook his head. "You're not going to like this."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLX7KDDZJi8
Daesung motioned his 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGTymd6cFsP
head towards the elevator. We followed him and we found ourselves back 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKtgDkWh5e
at the studio. Taeyang and Seungri were with the music producer.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSeJkpZAE4g
"Please tell me G-Dragon didn't just change the entire tune for the song?" I asked when we got in the studio.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUVUdnd8kMW
Taeyang and the music 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZszzi33N8Z
producer looked at each other with blank looks on their faces then 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3WclXmIArD
looked back at me. Seungri was looking at me the whole time. I was so 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwJvtBu4ibT
preoccupied in my mind, thinking of the worst, that I felt so confused 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡswpLzkk3dE
and angry at the same time.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOddtWl5TZQ
"It's best if you hear it for yourself," said Daesung.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu0lVyDtBJG
I looked over at Daesung1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL2BFHigZN8
and made my way to the console where the music producer had his laptop 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFUUME1Bzz
open for me. I sat down and preparing myself for the worst, I pressed 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpiASBFcLNf
the play button.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Ym5qN4Y8M
***1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQfOLhgtza
"Where are they?" came Yang Hyun-suk's voice from the door.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7elZFi8g3n
I came crushing back 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxHncGe2hvU
down to reality by the harsh sound of the manager's voice. I was on the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiWQPED7JO9
couch with the rest of the others and I had been brooding for a while.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6CFtbL2Gqp
I had so many mixed 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyeq3TFnFdz
feelings inside after listening to the instrumental G-Dragon had made. 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5QtFgY1Mk
He had completely changed everything and that made me so upset. After 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNxLBWECDg7
all the work I had put in with the others yesterday and this is what I 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB4C6iMPI7U
get in return? I was speechless. So were the others.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZx2o7L4f7y
I could tell that the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBn8wLmrHlT
others were as confused and wondering why G-Dragon had done all this. 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjD7sgnXZMV
But I was confused with a mixture of rage. I worked so hard on that 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfrT61mwmk
track and I felt everything just went down the drain.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWCSUYX4f1W
"Isn't anyone going to answer me?" Yang Hyun-suk asked.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9dL9GsYUKk
"They aren't here," Daniel answered.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtrpLXwyOB
"It looks like they had gone out for lunch," said Taeyang.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡluwatDTwkL
"They went out without taking you guys along?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFEjM8OZVkF
I folded my arms and 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡblBgAm3RHE
huffed. It looked like they did, alright. And if they made sure as to 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVNrtbRNhgN
come back here, I was going to skin them alive.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46DLOeXalG
"Maybe they must have gone to order us some lunch as well," said Christine.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRvedq4ylj0
"Well, they are taking a lot of time to get here," said Yang Hyun-suk. "What about the instrumental? Did they change anything?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMxCp7fpPpS
I could feel Christine who sat next to me stiffen by the question and I could imagine the others stiffen too.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTmsXoZi0o
"Well...eh," Mike started to talk but I intervened.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQjld24q7BD
"No, we haven't heard it yet."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfiNFnna8B9
I could feel the others 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOBGinHgPL0
turn to me with weird looks on their faces. I knew lying wasn't the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZy0gUJlLE7
right thing to do at this moment, but the music producer's laptop wasn't1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHjYn8VUYi
here and I had the USB drive where the instrumental was. And besides, 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGuVPnu1T0F
Yang Hyun-suk was going to be furious. I had to know what the heck was 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3UmxhxCaT1
going on in G-Dragon's mind before telling our managers anything.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNAMLy6JQg
"Oh, hopefully they haven't changed anything," said Yang Hyun-suk. "Call me when they get here."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfXRzmcTxpT
"Okay." I nodded my head.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD903Ug3yYG
When Yang Hyun-suk left,1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmM4pZ2jy03
Seungri came over to me in a quick flash. He scared me by his sudden 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw1EBcvVvzB
approach. He looked down on me with a look on his face.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxin3Ya1G12
"What did you just do?" Seungri asked. His voice almost turned into a shriek.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOn4CCoSPyo
"You know what I did," I answered, my arms still remained folded as I looked up at him. "I lied."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQUB2Tpr6G
"But why?" Christine turned to look at me fully in the face. "We're going to get into serious trouble."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwepPuqPHGV
"Not until I hear what 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZQApt9OnW
GD has to say." I looked at Christine and I could tell on her face that I1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwNKBr77L0
sounded a bit harsh towards her. I closed my eyes and took a breath, 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeD0m2uCafX
trying to calm down.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7AXKWVmn4D
"Sorry, I didn't mean to sound harsh," I said as I looked at her.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe7AWvRUvon
"I know. But you shouldn't have lied, Sam."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxpRMsYbfNs
"So that we could get 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZISSx1wOsU
Zoey and G-Dragon into trouble? The reason why I did this is because I 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvmPUup6IdD
want to know for myself why GD changed everything. If we told Yang 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wJdmXf8v5
Hyun-suk, I wouldn't have known for myself."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0GefROyJz
"I agree with Sam," said1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zjG7w5nbg
TOP. "We the group members have to know what's going on first. Getting 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNqwZLrPiQ9
Yang Hyun-suk angry won't be good for all of us and you know it."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMitG9opAv9
"So we just sit here and wait for them?" Mike asked.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufHFHomX4n
"Do we have a choice?" I asked as I looked out the window.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYsdY1CkQj
The rest of the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXzrxrbkAf
afternoon was quiet and boring. I was just on the couch looking out the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE18E0Kbp0P
window, while the others were now on the floor sitting in a circle 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4yUTqjqlx
playing cards.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8t96c65UE
I was leaning my chin on1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYlGawO6C8K
the armchair and my legs were up on the couch. I sighed sadly. I still 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡevISqpiZ9H
felt so bad about the song and I wondered why all this was happening, 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUVP4IELR5Z
especially to me.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2t10OCTobY
Did he do all this because of what happened with TOP the other day?1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZmEOk5jWq
I suddenly sat upright 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1kvbNHEcR
when I realised something. Hadn't he told Zoey that he liked her? If he 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5VQxs1ybt
really did like Zoey from the beginning, then why was he acting like a 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVtJJIpace
jealous prick the other day? Was he trying to get back at me not just by1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYUdLREIWJ
ruining the track but also by hanging out with Zoey?1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmD3PbfGB01
"Hey, Sam, are you okay?" Daesung asked as he looked at me. "You look like you have seen a ghost."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC41MBVOQyw
"I...eh.." I tucked a strand of hair behind my ear. "Nothing. Just realised something."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡongYRVjC2v
"That you're hungry," said Seungri, looking at his cards in his hands. "I'm also hungry."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOrWhHMNo6w
"But we can't go out and order lunch," said Mike. "I feel Yang Hyun-suk's eyes are everywhere now apart from here."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQRsQDQWbdC
"Maybe we can just order1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRfLChomS5
a pizza and tell the receptionist to come here without raising any 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNvrp0GJMu
suspicion to Yang Hyun-suk," said Daniel.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIIrmtAUEO9
"Good idea," said TOP. "Let me tell her right now." He pulled out his phone and just when he was about to call, Lee came in.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVMqcRJL5Q8
"Hey, guys," said Lee carrying three boxes of pizza in her hands.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQquYRQkMGZ
"Finally, food!" Christine exclaimed as she got up from the floor and ran over to Lee to help with the boxes.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOhPZecR9hU
"I heard that Zoey and 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9DckMgVTks
G-Dragon had left," said Lee. "Yang Hyun-suk told me and he is watching 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡioVQfedk8u
out of his office window for them like a hawk."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPJvww46t8
"I knew it," said Mike. "I knew he was watching."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLUt7UAd1FH
"Then it's a good thing 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWRGxR4qkG
Sam texted me a while ago," said Lee. "I had to find a way to sneak in 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq44W4uu7pZ
the pizza. That's why I took forever to get here."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8uPUpRUAz9
Daniel came over to hug me. "Thanks, sis. I don't know what we would have done without you. I was starving."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXyuy0aHi1Z
"Ya, I know," I said. "We better eat quickly before the managers get here."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGIxrZhEasV
Everyone soon dropped 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0oq76SMWlN
their cards and went over to the table started to dig in as soon as one 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7A0BlFRAPm
of the pizza boxes was laid on the table and Lee opened it.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNwe7TT6VV8
I had never eaten pizza 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYnSP10Z8D8
so fast and it had never tasted so good in my mouth. Maybe it's because 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubqFIIiTRU
despite all the anger bottled up inside me, I was as hungry as hell.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfKaDbYjVP
We were done finishing 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5djHVO0vqH
the second box of pizza when Lee asked, "I heard G-Dragon changed the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLLtCIMiiTB
instrumental for the song, is that true?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7tuTn19olH
"Well, ya," I said with my mouth full of pizza. The pizza was so good.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2UgAEqQx7
"He changed it for real?" Lee sounded surprised. "But Yang Hyun-suk said you haven't heard it yet."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dpCB4Mtj4
We were huddled up on 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwEeL4MrKxG
the floor around the table eating our pizza and we had soon stopped 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡumfuE2OiyY
eating and looked at Lee who was seated on the couch.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡle5XIOXckS
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Lee asked.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA6pcXi1PqJ
"We actually lied," said Taeyang.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡptpG567s3W
"You lied? About what?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0zZz0IPQP
"I told the manager that we hadn't heard the instrumental," I said.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeWPqzl4cDy
"But why?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqp0YdtrnAb
"Because, I had no choice. I want to know why GD did this. It's best we know and see how we can move forward."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXeKQjAkSyg
I finished my slice of pizza and licked my fingers when Lee asked, "don't you think he just did that to get back at you, Sam?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHanCaYF2DI
I didn't expect Lee to 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4D4iLnlCcn
say that in front of everyone. I felt time I had stood still and all 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXqczF42au
eyes were on me now. I looked away without saying a word.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtA3Yvsl2aU
"What does she mean by that, Sam?" Daesung asked.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0J48fBg1I0
"Please, tell us," said Christine. "What is it with you and GD? Are you two still fighting?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvildikYgCv
I sighed as looked up at the ceiling still without saying a word. I didn't know how I was going to tell them.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqgXJ1I2p83
"I thought that argument ended a long time ago," said Daniel. "Or did something else happen?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7qXHjR4yC
I stood up from the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI0N3FdZNJJ
floor and walked over to the window. The day was so bright and warm but 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlcE3dUukb
yet I felt so cold and gloomy. I knew this day would come sooner or 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxrzL9CZHRL
later.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTwtROnCqpw
Trying to find the right1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT1FmSlBMzZ
words to say was a lot harder than I thought. What was I going to say? 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHzdEzsMMR
To me, all this was confusing. I knew GD was still mad at me, but for 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNwzGU7607
what for, was the question in mind.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6RsQtscWmd
"Aren't you going to 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO8gs2EHf5Z
tell us?" Mike asked as I realised that he was standing next to me. "Is 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlu9HpDDqBS
he still mad about who had to write the lyrics for the song?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjoS2bbplK
"I doubt it," said TOP. "I was here with them when they were writing the lyrics and the two of them looked fine to me."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7iRxhLBuFg
"Please, tell us what's going on?" Taeyang asked. "Lee, do you know something?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMRI84MDxu
I looked at Lee and she was looking back at me with a scared look on her face. Using my eyes, I told her not to say a word.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkczFzR6l38
Lee went on to look at 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcok65htFMW
Taeyang and shook her head. "I've no clue. I didn't mean to say that. I 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ6B17IpKV8
just thought they might be arguing again."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzb5zTHO7h
"And it looks like it too," said Daniel, giving me an eye.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJA6AWvWxdt
"Aren't you going to say anything, Sam?" Seungri asked.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTagPSa3d62
"I don't even know what 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2vAzarEIfn
to say to you at this point," I said, turning back to face the window 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxcWI3IAe39
and I saw G-Dragon's car pull into the premises. Mike also saw it too.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQIAawaZHhn
"They are here," Mike announced to the others.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2PA2ZoWZDa
No one said a word. The room had too much tension already, it was best not to say a word.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZAqNNgKdEu
"I better call Yang Hyun-suk," said Lee.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpgrnhMrq8H
"No, not yet," I said, before Lee could stand up from the couch. "Wait until Zoey and G-Dragon get in here."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiLI0qzpWFg
Lee just nodded her head and I went back to looking through the window down at the car park.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbqjONVFCam
It only took five 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnH1k9OMJqy
minutes for Zoey and G-Dragon to get to the studio. They came in talking1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYSSF7w61cf
and laughing. Well, that happiness was going to end soon. Not when you 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeAGYyzYo50
see your group members are all upset and gloomy.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsill0u3JJD
"Hey, guys!" Zoey said cheerfully as she came in with G-Dragon behind her.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVBD6lO6gmy
When no one said anything back, Zoey's mood also changed. "What's with the long faces?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxGhMYmWoC
Still, no one said anything. It looked like no one was ready to throw the dice first. I cleared my throat and looked at Lee.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6tIsOZGCg
"You can call Yang Hyun-suk for us," I said.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Iaacq8L8n
"Okay." Lee got up from the couch and bypassed Zoey and G-Dragon going through the door.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1a6LFVBOMX
"Aren't you going to say what's wrong with you guys?" G-Dragon asked.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJsO33Anvqm
"Where were you?" I asked as I slowly started to approach them.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBIRPIgyVmh
"We went out," Zoey answered. "Are we in trouble with Yang Hyun-suk?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBvXMEV8gcZ
"Not just with him but also with me, a lot of us too," I said motioning to the other group members in the room.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZMBrvpd11t
"What? Are you mad we left without telling you?" G-Dragon asked.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMhgZsrffOc
"No." I now turned to look at G-Dragon. "It's about the instrumental. You changed absolutely everything."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ20tMG4W1AL
I tried to keep my tone down and my anger in check but I was boiling inside. Any minute now, I might just blow my head off.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEHB9a9WRI
I was expecting an answer from G-Dragon but all he did was look at me. I kept on coming closer, my eyes not leaving his.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaSyYVvjYxW
"Why did you this?" I asked.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1pAW1jc38O
"I didn't like the first one you made," he said, clearly with no emotion in his voice.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6QxhiQovah
"If you didn't like it, you should have just said so and all of us together would have figured something out. Not what you did."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZVN8iXhJF
When I got closer to them, I took out the USB drive from my pocket. I took G-Dragon's right hand and placed it in his open palm.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLcnpgB5Qrj
"The instrumental is in 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0HWkX9deRz
there," I said as I slowly looked up at G-Dragon. "When Yang Hyun-suk 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnOKcbRZ61R
came to hear it, I told him that we ourselves haven't heard it. I did 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE9FXsSRMnf
this so I can get the explanation out of you. But we're running out of 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXOeElCHdX
time and he will be here any moment. It's up to you to give it to him 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡevun9L5OH3
and let him hear it for himself. But let me remind you, he is already 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5eJUoIi8nl
pissed."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnrDxnXrXKn
"Wait, a minute," said Taeyang as he came up right behind me. "He first has to tell us what's happening between the two of you."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHZzOnW3Fg
"We don't have time, Tae," I turned to look at him.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVcLR32QEY
"What is going on?" Zoey asked. "Are you and GD still not on good terms?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT8sDFFCogX
I looked at Zoey and she1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6JeC3ChFTD
was as confused as ever. How I wish I could tell everyone but I didn't 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1gRZAX0Dzv
know where I stand with G-Dragon. I still couldn't tell why and what he 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb75zqKaGE0
was mad at me for.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmpdGf3mlc
"Now is not the right 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUuRXC118wD
time," I said as I went over to the couch and sat down. All eyes were on1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgpjSx4xHV
me now and I knew everyone was confused, but later on, they would 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyeLNsggvZF
understand.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMofWxpjId
Yang Hyun-suk, Collins 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFvTdpVPsF
and Lee came in seconds later. I could tell a lot of people felt 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmp5x1kTmPR
uncomfortable when they came in. I didn't. I just wanted to see whether 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCXga09ySs
G-Dragon would give away the USB drive or not.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoaZyp2OhdS
"It's about time you guys got here," said Yang Hyun-suk as he turned towards Zoey and G-Dragon. "Hope you had a perfect lunch."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqPdCl7iek
I almost smirked but kept my cool when Zoey said, "yes, we did."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡehRS5FiLjd
"But did you manage to order lunch for your friends too?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXuVWIRG3Gt
Zoey and G-Dragon paused. They obviously weren't expecting that. I had to step in and say something.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs9fjTiFgkb
"They did. They brought us pizza," I pointed at the three boxes of pizza on the table. We had only finished two boxes.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0w87GvVv84
"You guys were pretty hungry, weren't you?" Collins asked, looking surprised that two boxes were already empty.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfmcUDVAXk
"Ya, we were," said Mike as he opened the other box of pizza and the rest of us still eating dug in.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZprEJKUYRH
"So," Yang Hyun-suk looked away from us facing Zoey and G-Dragon. "Did you change anything with the instrumental or what?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsDf1GndaR3
I paused with my mouth 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGkHTccxmO
open ready to bite another piece out of my slice. I looked on at what 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFUAXNJDa3
was happening in front of me. I just hoped G-Dragon wasn't going to give1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBt8ggSHSm0
Yang Hyun-suk the USB drive.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrE2wboMiox
I looked at G-Dragon and1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpSuD4KplBY
noticed that he still had the USB enclosed in his hand. I looked at his1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnOjaG2CxM2
face wondering what he was thinking.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlnWWM1Ejdg
"Do you think he will give away the USB?" Seungri asked as he whispered in my ear.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOp8BOXsytG
"Hopefully not," I whispered back. I even had my fingers crossed.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5NosmMOWb
"No, we didn't change anything," said G-Dragon.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGGrTRUVCp
I smiled and Seungri 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZeMzHKLBw
held his breath and let out a sigh of relief. The rest of us on the 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxC5xHc6Q5v
couch seemed to have relaxed. Luckily, the managers hadn't read our body1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPYZxg7bMAB
language. They didn't even look at us. But Lee did.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR601IaIcFI
"Thank goodness," said Yang Hyun-suk. "I thought you did. I'm glad you didn't."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGgGOQ8h2p
I smiled a little more. 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAasgbyVrWm
G-Dragon did the right thing which I knew he would do. But the problem 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7wdW6sHh3
was far from over though. Now that our group members knew that he and I 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGuH8eP0zQu
were at war again.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpZJe6771F
"But we can't start 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgncTA9HDYe
recording the track now," said Collins. "It's a little late so they 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ57jrq4yML3
would have to do it the day after tomorrow."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoE6OVFODbn
I sat upright and alert.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv2fSi9zUd7
"The day after tomorrow? What are we doing tomorrow that we possibly 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQbyBpiJeZ
have to record the track the day after?"1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUZoJ2TRVp
"Well, Sam," said Yang Hyun-suk turned to look at me. "The Toxins are going to have a TV interview tomorrow."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2gpHfWIqmv
"An interview?" Christine was the one who looked more surprised.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh3fExihpah
"But why didn't you tell1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GHG1kEpzV
us earlier?" I asked as I looked at Collins who smiled back at me. It 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZhqtKO5Gb
was then that it hit me and things became clear.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFABCmart9X
"Is that the surprise you were talking about yesterday?" I asked.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGu5LfZq1W9
"Yep," said Collins as he grinned.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0YPpxmNilW
"This is one heck of a surprise, alright," said Zoey folding her arms.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZK1DRokwOi
"Well, played," I muttered to myself as I looked away.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1YDBszBCc
"So, before the day ends, we better go get ready," said Collins. "You will also have to perform during the interview too."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMjrbPXi7pI
"This just keeps on getting better," said Daniel, rolling his eyes.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkmHRLDDm8
"What are we waiting for? Let's go," said Collins. "We don't have enough time in our hands."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUUmpg08Xe
"You should have told us earlier, you know?" Mike said, as we the Toxins stood up to leave.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ38R731KrV8
"Then you should have thought twice before you all decided to leave for Paris."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzdG9tTj0v
It was then that the other Toxins realised that all this was payback. I wasn't surprised. I already knew.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV0Ft7UzUYV
The two managers and Lee went out of the room first. Just as we were about to walk out, TOP stopped me by holding my hand.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17gzk5AFcO
I turned to look at him 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0x9cT0xsoD
and he had stood up from the couch, looking straight at me. I blushed 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXcS6xflGPQ
and looked down at my feet. He always made me nervous when he looked at 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMmf7Ad41FV
me like that.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNaYJhiOItv
"We might have gotten away from our managers' fury today," said TOP. "But you and GD have a lot of explaining to do."1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfkhEKHAcY
"I know," I said as I turned to look at G-Dragon, who quickly looked away.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO8vQU6DtHr
"Ya, a lot," said Daesung as he nodded his head. I could see he was trying to ignore that TOP was holding my hand.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHc0G05iADs
"And don't try to come up with any excuses," said Taeyang.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVzDbK4zMj
"Don't worry, I won't," I promised. I just hoped G-Dragon wouldn't.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhidVl6CG4C
Zoey and the others left the room and I was the last to walk out. I didn't want to look at G-Dragon, but I did.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6d0DFqDsJn
We looked at each other 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5lPQqeYVTs
for a while and I didn't know what I felt for him anymore. Maybe I was a1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3UcfwBsxeV
little hurt, but I was also so confused. I don't know. I couldn't tell.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4MXR3xiGzd
Maybe he also felt the same.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaeoY6s6BVj
But I wouldn't know and I wouldn't like to know what he felt. I walked out of the studio, closing the door behind me.1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQE48SkjHJ
I then realised that I 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhC4NSBAKW
had completely forgot to ask G-Dragon and TOP about the necklace Zoey 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7pihM93fBA
bought for me from Paris. I guess that issue will have to come up 1168Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1MYbGlzXD
another time.
