My watch said 10:31 and I hissed in frustration. I was getting really impatient and I felt like I was about to blow a fuse.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUkikjDrRCQ
I had never been this 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgfeAxELz9l
late in my entire life. Not even when I had my own personal 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPjxhlfSlD
appointments. The others would be wondering why I was so late. And 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlYz5xDzuYI
trying to explain the reason why, would have them blown away.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiTzTnlqEOk
"Sam, are you still there?" Zoey called out to me from our room.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7sJAO1ovc
I didn't want to answer. I was quite irritated. But if I didn't, she would start to freak out.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0TxfYFFBG
"Sam!"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jwqNVPRzN
I rolled my eyes. "I'm still here, Zoey," I answered.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPkYakxBaI
Zoey came out of the 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv3ofXf7hFg
room and came to the lounge where I was seated waiting for her. I was on931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRh1pOXaR2n
the couch and I looked at her, then back at my watch.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnMO8jcS1i
"Did you find what you're looking for?" I asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfg9n2cuvWz
"No, I haven't," said Zoey.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsfOvwk2cV
"You've been searching for it all morning," I said as I stood up. "Can we please just go to the studio? We're already late."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyumdcJmaPI
"No, let me go and check again," Zoey turned around to head back to the room and I groaned so loudly to grab her attention.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdDNg0Bw6L
"Zoey, it's just a stud and you have plenty of those like it in your jewellery box."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3wOlKORfh
"But those are my favourite studs," said Zoey. "You know they are diamond, right?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyBt2EC97Gd
"I know because I bought you those studs for your birthday a year ago."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMmxZceHY2
"Oh. Ya, I know." Zoey had a look on her face that told me she forgot about that.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJvZFYKjPw
I ignored her and said, 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzduQ97kRyM
"just get another pair of studs or don't put on any at all. For my sake.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8qGRUl3lw1
And Collins' too. We were supposed to be at the studio at 10."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Zy0Q5WSpR
"What time is it?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jLKO0YfuN
"10:35."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84OHr2CGrg
"Wow, time really passes by."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXSa1iWJAEK
"When it comes to you, it does. Come on, let's go."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQcaWH2EWa
"Let me go get my phone."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnsUDzNwoLg
Zoey rushed back to the 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP63fOzNq9T
room and I hoped she wasn't going to get back to looking for her missing931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBEHQs3AB8I
stud. She sometimes did the opposite of what she had to do. But anyway,931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyobxAODpAj
that was Zoey.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8oi9PMoQ1
I soon received a 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnxu9lWvdF
message from Collins threatening me to get to the studio as soon as 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwLWxVArRe
possible. In no less than five minutes. I moaned. He knew we couldn't 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhgsGPjgqs
get there in five minutes. That's if we were superheros.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1L0jqK5us
"Zoey, come on, we better go!"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5RIBVRkG6
"I'm coming."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5EU78T3shF
I started heading 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYXisuNG30G
towards the elevator and my phone beeped again. Another message. 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXRfGvtSfy
Hopefully it wasn't Collins again telling us he would hang us to death 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLLPVn03F0
if we didn't make it in time. But I was surprised to see an unknown 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJTCFqMHlkg
number. A number coming from another country.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlU1pG52nea
"Oh, who is this?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxH13cqVIfS
Before I could open the message icon, Zoey came rushing from behind and bumped into my back. That almost made me drop my phone.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiojoormpX5
"My goodness, Zoey!" I said as I looked at her. "You should look where you're going. I almost dropped my phone."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLshYHVtTJx
"Sorry," said Zoey as she also looked at me.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5W7oXvkou
"Come on, we're already late."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxR4SAKIOdQ
We went into the 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡueWZ6A3mB9
elevator and I put my phone away in my jeans jacket pocket. A black 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4iyttuWimH
Chevrolet SUV was waiting for us outside. The others had already left 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7FFUVLave
for the studio and I had stayed behind because of Zoey's missing stud.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBpUS0yPUtM
When we got to YG, 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlKDmRKzxzT
Collins stood there by the entrance, obviously waiting for us. He looked931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpcHoGavnpi
like an angry father ready to scold at his kids for coming home late.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMfbWCWEuxv
"Don't tell me all this is your doing, Zoey," said Collins as we approached him.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwqGVFdx0S
"No, no, it's not," said Zoey as she shook her head.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBPLiGdteWK
"Says the person who isn't wearing her studs today."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZMcLg1q8K1
Zoey held her earlobes 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVfE1nj5LYE
and looked at me with a surprised look on her face. I shrugged. I had to931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbBFgJSBXjm
tell Collins why we delayed over the phone. At least he believed me, 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkVy6HWAav
knowing that he already knew what was Zoey was like.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfrVR96I04
"Come on, the others are waiting and they didn't want to start without you," said Collins.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1NRVQk8qjm
"They had to wait," said Zoey, flipping her hair. "I'm singing the first verse alongside G-Dragon."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡab1Y6OS0aC
"Remind me whenever you're deciding who sings which part of a song to let me be there," said Collins as he turned to look at me.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhUDLTQP0B
"I'll try." I smiled. Zoey stuck out her tongue at Collins.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7O5lvMMLHM
We got to the studio and we found everyone else waiting for us, lazing around on the couch.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnJiLDeGM8F
"Hey, you're finally here," said Seungri.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48urzTUL4O
"Sorry, we had an issue back at the hotel," said Zoey.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmjLH0I8QBy
"Ya. A 'serious' one." I said as I rolled my eyes.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYa0Q2R6wi3
"I can't wait to get started," said Daniel excitedly as he stood up from the couch.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCzQTOkQDoV
"Then let's do so," said931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmjs00HgHS
Collins as he joined the music producer by the console. "Zoey, Taeyang,931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0ieNUMeTq
Christine, Sam and G-Dragon, we will start with you guys."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM7T4nguQ1h
I had completely forgot 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPEqZFz2xX
that G-Dragon was even in the room. I hadn't noticed him at all when he 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqih5g6S2o
stood up from the couch and came towards Zoey and I.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnXiRI1hWxf
"Hi, Zoey," G-Dragon greeted Zoey.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDR8zet3mC
"Hi," said Zoey with a wide smile on her face.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzdcDxAiJ4I
"Ahem," Christine came from behind as she cleared her throat. "Let's go. You two can talk later."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK9pdXqVmRI
I rolled my eyes and together with Taeyang and Christine, we went into the live room together, followed by the two love birds.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3sVnACsBV
In the live room, there 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfk3ibRp68
stood five microphones and with each mic had a pair of headphones around931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDwQwfj3NEW
it. We each stood in front of a microphone and put on the headphones.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy347eMCZW5
Ahead of us was a window where we could see the others from the other side.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfwidm2Ob3p
"Are you guys ready?" Collins asked as his voice was heard through the speaker in the live room.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdaqLkNqBij
I looked at the others 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPBwQgObtC
to see if they were settled and gave Collins a thumbs up and the music 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwS4xl1Uj1v
producer started to play the tune for the song.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbo9D5MGsoK
G-Dragon started to sing931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2J7AH4eYG
and then afterwards, Zoey followed. Their voices blended so well with 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmaqgNMuHR
the music, they made a perfect harmony. Looked like I did a good thing 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEjD13YGnP
to let them sing the first verse together.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZHEk6rzbD9
Collins, the music 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmDgxyzhUqy
producer and the others outside the live room had smiles on their faces.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk0UqIJgoVd
They were loving it alright. Collins gave them a thumbs up.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX42aVYwINH
Christine then sang the 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5AXxgBEWI
bridge and as she came came closer to the chorus, I joined in. Then 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDUmra7i3G
Taeyang and I sang the chorus together.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrttdnNSAT
When we were done, the music producer stopped playing the track.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9mCcwDrf1j
"That was awesome, guys," said Collins as his voice came out through the speaker. "The song is so incredible."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJDDPFpw5Q
"Ya, thank Sam," said Taeyang. "She is the one who came out with all of this."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0SNdKYk0DL
I smiled at Taeyang who stood beside me and I nudged him on the shoulder. "Stop it, Tae," I said. "Don't make me blush."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgEI08j5dd
"Okay, Sam and Taeyang, I931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMpltP6831t
want you two to go through the chorus again, this time with a little 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTBmtRbTdp8
more high tempo and see how it sounds," said the music producer.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYP80pGSuyF
"Okay," Taeyang and I said at the same time.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlACHmF60A1
"Shall GD and I leave then?" Zoey asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡORBb8VBhki
"You may," said Collins,931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWgkxTlE2d
looking a little irritated on his face. "But don't leave the studio. 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEIYmFc0pi
You have to work on the backup vocals."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiGNvHFe3fl
"Alright, we will be here," said Zoey, with a grin on her face.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCreYHr72j
If I hadn't known 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡthpcygjCBZ
better, something told me Zoey and G-Dragon were up to something. They 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCMdbHNoxwS
looked like little mischievous children as they smiled at each other and931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMmshwuP3kl
they walked out of the live room. I couldn't help but feel a little 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPz9hXd4PI
hollow inside.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDe791SICth
"So, we will start from Christine's part," said the music producer.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVF1mjT7fB
We continued recording 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHNvuh9WyZ
the song and later on, TOP, Mike, Daesung, Seungri and Daniel also came 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ49WglSgPLB
into the live room. It took us a while to record the whole song, trying 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBePQCxcuLM
to make our vocals blend in with the song but we were done.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQc8gVxVA4N
"Great job guys," said Collins. "Let's break up for lunch and then we can come back and work on the backup vocals."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51KmCqd7Fe
"Alright," said Mike as he took out his headphones. "I'm pretty hungry now."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4L7XapCJhE
"The song is amazing," said Christine. "And it's catchy that you can sing it the whole day."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckIxr3RyBr
"Ya," said TOP. "Why don't we all go somewhere special for lunch?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhssuraExt9
"Like where?" I asked as I put the headphones on the mic.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKpfZBy4px
"Some restaurant I think we will like," said TOP as he looked at me with a killer smile.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbD45pBhzVe
"That sounds great." I turned to the window to look at Collins who obviously heard everything. "Can we go, Collins?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi4kxVq3k87
"Ya, you can go," said Collins waving his hand irritatingly in the air.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxH8Q2dABrS
"Yes!" Daniel punched the air with his fist.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKd76iEWD0
"But be back within an hour."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdf5ET7YHA
I raised an eyebrow at Collins who then rolled his eyes at me and groaned.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7zuNFmMYv
"Fine, an hour and a half."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzFRHagWsAi
I did a little victory dance in my heart and I smiled in triumph. Collins and the music producer soon left the studio room.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3clFnLWyjF
"How did you do that?" Daesung asked as we all walked out of the live room.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuBy9Q0DkCr
"Do what?" I asked with a smile on my face as Daesung was right behind me.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLnAZFZPmGO
"How did you convince Collins to give us an hour and thirty minutes?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkyQBqL6hF
"That, my friend," said 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fELRxKUCn
Mike behind me, "is the way my sister does her thing. Just by a look in 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9dpmnKUud1
her eyes and you will have to do whatever she wants."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOko1sKARk
"That's not true," I said as I turned around to look at Mike who had his hand on Daesung's shoulder.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwwi5BdYO0
"Really? I beg to differ," said TOP as he winked at me.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7hRIWXFA3
"No one does what I want them to do just by looking at them in the eye," I said, looking away from TOP, blushing.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdC5hKbDiCY
"Well, it does work, most of the time," said Christine nodding her head.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6cejQPoZBg
"Oh, ya? Like when?" I folded my arms.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY75AwQZef2
"Whenever you want us to931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5oBE5kCaer
tell you the truth about something and we refuse, you always give us 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB27UvjipYo
this eye that makes us give in," said Daniel.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWGsNg30reC
"For real?" I raised an eyebrow.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Igc7jyg12
"Ya, your eyes burn and we just can't take it," said Christine.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3a8L30gF7z
"Huh," I thought of all 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYJJysTybu
the times when either of my brothers or the girls ever did whatever I 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHUmopn2aTK
wanted them to do just by me giving them the eye.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB13oh0zQgf
"But that doesn't explain with Collins though," said Taeyang.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Z0vSm09Qo
"Thank you, Tae," I said feeling relieved.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2m9llM3AP
"Come on, Sam," said 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZgDFtkJbs
Daniel. "You might not know it, but Collins listens to you because you 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5qUXSTjgm
also give him the eye. And also probably because you're his favourite."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4biYYfzJuJ
"That makes no sense." I shook my head.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO0rYbM5nec
"I believe him," said Seungri. "Looks like you have a way of getting to Collins to make him agree with you."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYvXXjvXYRA
"But he doesn't agree to me all the time," I slowly shook my head.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyPITOlGMIf
"On some ocassions like this one, he does," said Christine with a smile.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2TXmC44goV
"Can we please just go for lunch?" I asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4taTPgDqzQ
Seungri came over to open the door for me, but just as I was about to step out of the room, I stopped.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRqDSXVMQHZ
"Guys?" I turned around to look at the others. "Where are Zoey and GD?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6n6HAQP9P
We all turned towards the couch and noticed that there was no one there. I went back in the room and looked around.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK1SIufyf2t
"They aren't here," I said.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfL4VGzq0e
"These guys don't stop surprising us with their disappearing acts," said Daesung.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1GkRD04Ck
"I'm surprised Collins didn't notice," said Seungri.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxBC1ty2Y6S
"Hopefully, they will be back before we start on the backup vocals," I said.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHeXqsCGN25
"Then let's go then," said TOP. "Wherever those two are, they are fine."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDGu8Ebzn71
I nodded my head and we 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtO2ddcGMXl
all left the room. As we headed down to the ground floor, I reminded 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJM2fzbEYlo
myself to leave a text message for Zoey.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1lrkindGy
We were in the lobby and931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9INacqp9S
I stopped to remove my phone. I went over to messages and realised that931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYtONhPtszV
I had one unread message. It was the message I had received this 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjriQAuETNt
morning.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRaCotqI75
I first sent Zoey a text931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxX0oImrQ1J
message then I decided to read the unknown message from this unknown 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCflThV0wzH
person. Then TOP appeared right in front of me.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2Gs9jVrat
"Hey, what are you looking at?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2QubqxQhf
I was startled by his sudden appearance that my thumb pressed the exit button and I had gone out of my messages.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vWj2bKVBi
"I was just sending Zoey a message," I said.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy4nh6C9Y5X
"Okay, shall we go?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEz6iLqdWZ2
"Ya, sure." I put the phone back in my pocket and I wrapped my arm around his elbow and we walked out of the building.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmA5okK0lXQ
"Oh, you guys look like you're going out," said Christine with a smile.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDQA7JW8pg
"We're all going out for lunch aren't we?" I asked with a smirk.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCWFAYIwY96
"Ya, we are," said Daesung, looking the other way and scratching the back of his head.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv97Qgmhpuk
"We better go or else our one and half hours will elapse in no time," said Daniel.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7oWrJKzoQ
Instead of using any one931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3vVYYOUUlD
of the BigBang members personal cars, we used the two black SUVs. We 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7UgVfFPFUL
were driven to a fancy restaurant and as usual, we grabbed a lot of 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9inKu26b4
attention, especially from the customers.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOAXCn5Fe7W
I had to admit, the 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ61rAXRZKTE
restaurant was nice and classy, suitable for the famous and the rich. As931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLTEhAQnPS
I walked into the restaurant with the others, a fancy glass chandelier 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5LmlSOjdu4
caught my eye. The polished wooden floor shone almost like glass under 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJuPjCtHKJ1
the lights the chandelier reflected all over the room.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXzg9RqL3BD
A smartly dressed 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnhsvOvVYEF
waiter, who by the way, was super cute, came over. He gave us a friendly931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgP4NFUgIJo
smile and I felt Christine nudge me by the shoulder and when I turned 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡviCjdwC28r
to her, she was smiling. Looked like she also noticed the waiter's good 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtesRuvtYdI
looks too. Damn! Why were Korean men so good looking?931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNUIs1yZ9xW
We were escorted to a 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCBBInUr0yf
round table big enough to cater a whole lot of people. Even ten. But 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Gr8SvfTSk
sadly, Zoey and G-Dragon weren't here.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSzQx73hBF
TOP pulled a chair for 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzuZ2h0l6ls
me and I sat down, thanking him as he took his seat beside me. Seungri 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAv28CkaF0
pulled a chair for Christine who sat on my other side and Seungri sat 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnFmJKvOwP
beside her.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPHqK1vZoeX
"This place is so lovely," I said as I looked around.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡthyqy6JpPp
"Tell me about it," said Christine.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ZLSghUqxh
"I knew you would like it," said TOP.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi15MYmbr2c
"Ya, it's exquisite, but I'm only here for the food," said Mike who sat opposite me.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYcWZpog8FR
"So, let's order," said Daesung.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvTB8RoQt4z
I took the fancy looking menu with the colour of velvet and the letters written in gold. Classy.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY6Sqn5lfI3
After our delicious meals had been served, we ate. I enjoyed it as I savoured every little food in my mouth.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySUeudBK7o
As we were having our 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVMpkflp3eD
dessert, we were chatting and there was a lot of laughter all around our931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGWiIE7v5VZ
table. It was fun to be like this, all together as good friends and 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKCu9k8N2h
laughing about. I kind of wished Zoey and GD were here. I bet they were 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW8vjWueHIr
having fun wherever they were.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uXdI7yYwr
While I was having my 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpf3TkbNoN
strawberry cake, I felt the vibration of my phone in my pocket. Must be a931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOL5QGh0F7f
message. I took out my phone and I was shocked to see that the same 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3vjdPRMxDZ
unknown number had sent me a message again.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnSd1RNo1yq
I tapped on the message 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUi6nlLs4pv
icon and the first message the unknown number had sent to me was a 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHHGFfRsHB
photo. I had to download it first before I could even see it. And then 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrRGYs20kFo
the next message was more surprising.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXygy8At4le
"Aren't you going to do anything about this?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡysMhUZO7Iu
Anything about what was 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4bqSp11xf
the question. Had this had to do with the photo? Must be or else the 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb44JBt27pq
unknown person wouldn't have texted me this message.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1SHd83h6SY
I decided to turn my data on and download the photo. Just as I was about to, my phone went off.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡth8owXahJ3
"Dang it!" I muttered to myself.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKi5UyJAcM
"Hey, what's wrong?" TOP asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvWuQm8lTJ
"Nothing, my phone went dead. I hadn't charged it last night."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ63J8sI2VP
"Was there something important you wanted to do?" Taeyang asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfplgLhXUj
"Not really, it's not important." I shook my head but my thoughts still lingered on the unknown photo.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSN6ncwF9aH
"Did Zoey text you back?" Christine asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡABVTboXT63
"No, why?" I asked as I picked up a piece of strawberry cake with my fork.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyt9FVshYGV
"Well, your phone vibrated so I thought you had received a message from her."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg2r3HFaLBg
"It was nothing. Wherever Zoey is, she is having a lot of fun."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZktwa4DfAr
"Hey, what's up with GD and Zoey anyway?" Taeyang asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpIFk2wb3b8
"Isn't it freaking obvious?" said Daesung. "Those two seem like a couple now."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJeWYuDo0mZ
I almost choked on my cake but instead, I cleared my throat. Christine rolled her eyes.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrb1YO7JgnA
"Well, that wasn't going to go on unnoticed forever," she said.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtjCloxXjX
"Wait, for real?" Taeyang asked, with a look of surprise.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5PAJ9rtZF
"And you already knew, didn't you?" Mike asked looking at Christine.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzj5Kofwesw
"Oh, please," said Christine rolling her eyes. "Don't tell me you haven't noticed how close those two are nowadays."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIx7cWqlfop
"They have always been close," said Seungri. "But this time, they are just way too close."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMV1blxwNd
"For them to disappear like that together, it counts for something, right?" TOP suggested.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGPXzTfU7wO
"Can we please stop 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgfvoV7Nhcp
talking about it?" I asked. "There are people around and if they hear 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjA0V67OQ2
all this, some of us would be hanged when this spreads like wild fire."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgz7R7KNpMs
"Why do you say that?" Daesung asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2AkpYEbuR
"Oh, oooh, oh," said Daniel waving his hand from across the table. "May I say it?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ6DLqnAtny
"No, let me," said 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5yG3VPW7oU
Christine, as she put her hand on mine and looking at me convincingly to931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgom5Zhk9rc
allow her to say what she wanted to say.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFCwkKhMbSo
I shook my head at Christine and she leaned back on her seat with a groan. Daniel smiled when I nodded my head to let him go on.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3Tsx7XYrv
"Because, Collins gave 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNVPMhGzVZ
these girls a golden rule when we were coming here," said Daniel. "And 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYwW58omBT
that is, none of them should date any one of you BigBang members. 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjsoSpWoAqm
Never."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWgwrsJO7bp
There was silence on the931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4QS5nZpTCo
table and I couldn't help but feel a little downcast. Christine 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6RMtpnBq6
continued to eat her dessert like nothing serious had been said. I 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMK6L6Uhu3m
looked over at my brothers who seem to be enjoying our humiliation.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wX8hvxSng
"Is that true?" Seungri asked, looking over at me.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYaYB1xwooJ
"Ya, it's true," I said as I slowly chewed the cake in my mouth.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYfSGdnRDN
"Oh." Daesung looked a little disappointed as he stared down at his plate.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJ7xMoR3VK
"Who cares? It's not like it's that serious," said TOP as he shrugged.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbViU1vbUr7
"It's serious to 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGjxbmUf7gM
Collins," I said as I turned to look at TOP. "We're only here to 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6BHUQt4n33
collaborate with you and that's all. Not date, get married and have 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXa7Z0mUdlL
babies."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46u8HIKzsm
That was odd coming out 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8R4InKRLEW
of my own mouth and the others knew it too. Everyone's eyes were on me, 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqIEPMzDbXt
with looks on their faces that I couldn't describe. This was 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4pU9yXGETx
embarrassing. My hands were now curled into fists as they rested on my 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCYJ90fnpM
laps.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJkhTd1DfzQ
"Sorry, that came out wrong," I said.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCcLhoMQJY8
"Well, you did catch us by surprise by saying that," said Taeyang.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRwf3ISHAw
I really did. Something 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcHkRiI6cgh
had gone totally wrong with me and I could feel it. My thoughts were 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8NmXb2JUDe
spinning in my head and I felt like I had no control over how I felt.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgCXguk9dra
"Excuse me, I'll need to use the rest room," I said as I drew back my chair, stood up and headed straight for the ladies' room.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8aaFnl5yh
I quickly closed the 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxfYMnI1LS
door immediately I stepped in the ladies' room, leaning my back against 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡql2JZfpuwL
the door. My hands flew to my hair and I took a deep breath. I walked 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIp48Hdwpo8
over to the sink and stared at myself in the mirror.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7bC7EQTSXZ
"What's wrong with you today?" I asked my reflection.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAq4iiZfYH3
I shook my head and I 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8RXsNrN2u6
knew I wasn't alright. Something was definitely wrong. Was it the fact 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9bL79BE9o
that Zoey and G-Dragon were together? As far as I know, I wasn't really 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimVzdd6tyt
supposed to care. But I did.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5R6T5iB9fv
I looked at myself and I931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY22X960IsT
could see the sadness in my eyes. Were they for G-Dragon? I shook my 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCsBK9rw5LR
head at the thought. No. They weren't. He and I were still at war with 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXISWf8Oj7
each other and that made no sense. I had to stop thinking about these 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWwrEEwqbpx
things and focus on what's really important.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfem3Hv4ieJ
I quickly took a deep breath to try and pull myself together. I rinsed my hands, left the room and went back to our table.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2b8lQSERDr
"Are you okay, Sam?" Mike asked as I sat back down.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKcusGaMLWP
"Ya, I am. I just feel horrible that I said that."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAr940rwWL
"We think we know why you did," said Christine.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPlbYEFhu9
I gulped. What had these931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyu7iVvOX5N
guys thought of now? If it was what I thought it was, I would rather 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxluEFoDEQc
not hear it. There was a moment of silence at the table.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxZodd5pYt
"Zoey has you so worked up that you're irritated," said TOP.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG5PAa4oAc4
That was not what I was expecting. I was wide eyed and in my heart, feeling a little relieved.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Ktmo9xTfX
"Ya, I remember when we were coming here in the plane and Collins told you to watch over Christine and Zoey," said Mike.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCquFOVG30T
"And I have been a good girl on my part," said Christine making an invisible drawing of a halo above her head with her finger.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxhWVMjeyG
While Christine was one 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡebGZ2VQEgs
who at least had her hormones in check, Zoey and I were pretty much 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡetLPSua1t5
guilty. I couldn't tell who was worse between either of us. I bet I was 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6iQGutgx4j
worse.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzSOcCdD0X
"Well, I guess I'm also guilty myself like Zoey," I said, admitting to everyone.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ00s3tJImp0
"If you mean TOP flirting around with you, then trust me, you're not," said Daniel.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUC4WXSqipu
"Hey!" TOP looked a little annoyed but rather amused. He ended up laughing.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9x3goyJpVt
"And me calling you my panda," said Seungri, with a smirk.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhbbN4NRqK
"You see, Sam, people just like you," said Mike. "And these guys shouldn't dare make a move of kissing you."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlEBPyeVAGh
I blushed. "Mike!"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA04Z0cBT5B
"Don't worry, he is just being protective over his sister," said Daesung, laughing.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNlGUDudMJ
"I've tried kissing 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1bkYBjOWE
her," TOP challenged as he looked over at my brothers. He raised an 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuix694b7O7
eyebrow. "What are you going to do about that?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZUVy5ELrcZ
"Uhh, if I were you, I 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwlGCyUmy6
wouldn't challenge them, TOP," I said as put my hand on his shoulder, 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq7z0wrJibP
looking over at my brothers who looked set on tearing TOP apart. And I 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFkaWRrRwEo
caught a glimpse of Daesung rolling his eyes at TOP. "You would end up 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBBhlwS1OS
regretting it."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQFhhKUN0X
"True," said Christine, nodding her head at TOP. "These boys are like monsters you can't beat. Only Sam can handle them."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkiV4Qi8z2p
I looked over at Christine with a look that said 'that's not true.' Christine shrugged.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5We9OrAFo
"Fine, I'll listen to 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA55xPXfoPW
you ladies," said TOP as he looked at Christine and I. "Most especially 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQavOHQGbQf
because Sam says so." He gave me that killer bad boy smile of his and I 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7rM0xSpIpo
blushed.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS9bl195zz4
"Well, we better go," said Taeyang.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7bDRpb9tAp
He was right. We only had a few minutes to get to YG. And Collins was one person who's strict when it comes to time.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVXwCICA5O
After TOP paid the bill, we left the restaurant with the paparazzi taking pictures as we walked out.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhJC2Q8OfA
We got to YG just in 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1UOAtu1Jv
time. I just hoped that Zoey and G-Dragon were back here. I didn't want 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrlynMpZ2YP
Collins on my throat and giving him the eye, wasn't going to help.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjhMPNOjjn
When we got to the studio, we found G-Dragon.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJDo80QztO
"Hey, where did you two disappear to?" Christine asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltM4P0HRAl
"We just went out," said G-Dragon as he looked around the room.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNwzs5LrMvq
I couldn't help but feel931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvDHyl7JLbi
that something was wrong, just by the look on his face. "What's wrong?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ncRqsL80N
I asked him with my eyebrow raised.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDypgKz8qI
"Huh?" He appeared to be absent minded. Was he looking for something?931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6w7Ulb0L06
"I was asking what's wrong with you? And where is Zoey?" I asked as I also looked around.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvL8NhM3bjn
"That's the thing," said G-Dragon. "I can't find her."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhnoFfm849a
I felt something inside 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMsgbdmpq2
me break and my eyes bulged out of their sockets ready to fall out. I 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ65oMomneh
couldn't believe what I was hearing.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLWvHDWsY5k
"Are you for real?" Taeyang asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRTxArUqBko
"I'm serious," said G-Dragon.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmWru00xXfW
"Wait, do you mean you 'lost' her?" Mike asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxNZnblO9Xn
"I didn't lose her, I just can't find her."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI8LjuiNYLZ
"That sounds more like losing her to me," said Daniel.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYvZvigcBF3
"You guys aren't helping!" G-Dragon exclaimed throwing his hands in the air in frustration.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGWVgAEJAuc
"Where were you guys first of all?" Seungri asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ00NU6Aj4XO
"We first went to have lunch then the two of us went to the park."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoUPrfFv7F
"Then?" TOP asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9P6bXzpDr6
"I don't know, I went over to get some ice cream for the both of us, and the next thing I know she was gone."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCXkgilHoM
"Are you sure?" Daesung asked. "Did you look everywhere for her?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0WmxZGblOP
"I did. I even asked people around and they hadn't seen her. I thought she would be back here."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRA9QXaTPA
"That would be unusual, given that Zoey doesn't really know the city so well," said Taeyang.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vtYJyLURs
"But where could she be?" Christine asked looking as worried as I was.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzuZJxKTpHZ
"Try calling her," said Seungri, turning to Christine.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzsXmhroV4
"I just hope she is okay," I said as I rubbed my neck.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbdzVcIy6Z
"What are we going to do with Collins?" Mike asked looking at me.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZlGoWdpWsn
"I don't know," I said. "Hey, do me a favour and try to call the hotel and see if Zoey is there."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEACr3K0vtr
"Sure thing," said Mike as he pulled out his phone.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopAMrYTgkg
"Her phone is off," said Christine her phone in her hand.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6E4cYp2ftU
"Oh, no, this isn't good," said TOP.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCJpEPQGSs
"Again, Zoey is putting us into more problems."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0uAPq1cKv5
I couldn't help but 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdAwY4v2jIA
wonder why she went off like that. Something wasn't right. Was G-Dragon 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kNrGCvqe4
not telling us what was really going on?931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GcQlcCa41
"No one has seen Zoey go into the hotel," Mike announced.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4y1ol9PXg
"We're goners," said Seungri as he dropped himself on the couch.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2ttEDFtRA
"We've to look for her," said TOP.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTHS2ahcE6i
"But where can we start looking?" Daniel asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkitxWqLJI
"I don't know, but we have to go and find her," I said.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnv2Ea8fMW
"And we have to do something with Collins," said Taeyang.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Riu72J4xc
"Did someone say my name?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB15t60HDWz
I cringed. He was one 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡruJ1curtf6
person I wasn't ready to face right now. Everyone else wasn't ready to 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUP3UFnblcR
either. We slowly turned to look behind us and Collins stood there with 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHfCrpMWSmi
the music producer.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5QdMW1ACv
"Why are you all looking worried like someone has gone missing?" Collins asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAT9bUAbibH
I sighed. If only he knew. But if he does find out, he wasn't going to forgive us that easily.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPO4cllwF8G
Collins looked on at us, waiting to answer him. What to do now! We were going to be in such big trouble.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2cJMxmE9W9
"Looks like you aren't 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiWZiVT3SUp
going to answer me, so let's get back to work," said Collins turning 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9S8LZ07pQg
away from us and heading towards the console.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxpK4ErE5Gi
"We will work on the backup vocals," said Collins. "Zoey, Sam and Christine, you're up."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSNh0GPrih
I looked at the others 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADfLDNUsXs
who hadn't said a word. We all looked at each other. Someone had to do 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ684nizwgvF
something or else we would be toast.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡprXFxdwQWW
"Are we going to start?" Collins asked looking behind him as he turned on his chair. "Where is Zoey?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRnt7UkKCg
It was about time he noticed. It looks like we ourselves weren't ready to tell him that Zoey is missing.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAEbmaozrSk
"What's wrong with you, guys? Why aren't you saying anything?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7AFrWNkhM
"Zoey isn't here," said Mike.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiy3CtVg8jN
"Ya, I can see that. Where is she?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyl00KcVLGG
"She wasn't feeling too well," I said. "So she went back to the hotel."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXnYnAbRjo
"What? Did she eat something bad for lunch?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRaYYr5mrL
"Ya. She did," said G-Dragon.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQl247nAmk
"So, do you think we should continue or do this tomorrow when Zoey is around?" I asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuPNyFJeEun
"We should just do this tomorrow," the music producer suggested, turning to Collins.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomlBol3Ejm
Please say yes. I was praying in my heart that Collins would agree. This time I wasn't relying on my eye to do anything.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb18uN3NzC9
"Fine," said Collins. "We really need Zoey, so we should just do it tomorrow."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN716VJJVKj
Mike and Daniel almost 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDmct19SyXd
jumped with relief but they managed to control themselves. Christine 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9OakuXOJfV
turned around so that Collins and the music producer wouldn't notice her931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpKnQS9KWQ
sighing in relief. The rest of us just stood there, pocker faced.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMC0eDK90Zg
"That's fine," said Taeyang.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwKFRKhUXF3
"I really wanted us to be done with this today," said Collins.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz22L6cTtgb
"Looks like it wasn't meant to be," said TOP.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiIcQ4QAHD3
Ya. It wasn't meant to be. Looks like we were lucky. That meant we could look around for Zoey.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmyolu6guC
"You guys can go back to the hotel and make sure Zoey is okay," said Collins.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBRcGaRU3qo
"I'll go," said Christine. "The others can stay here if they want to."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4RHwqC8615
Christine was doing the 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPV6sUjMY3
right thing. If she went to the hotel, Collins wouldn't be so suspicious931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRjHpgylQp1
of what's going on and just in case he decides to go back there at 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4lHdJEIPql
anytime, Christine might cover up for Zoey.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJSzvvpK65u
"Okay and what will the rest of you all be doing?" Collins asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv1o7W88aef
"Chilling," G-Dragon and I replied at the same time. We both looked at each other afterwards.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBSLhWUXsJV
"Fine, I have some other things to attend to. I might just go and check up on Lee and Yang Hyun-suk."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxOyk6RDD3u
I wanted to ask where, 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcohK50ivlN
but I knew it was none of my business. I realised that I hadn't seen Lee931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSW7HK8d58z
the whole day. Must be she was busy with Yang Hyun-suk. Collins and the931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHv9TGtl9ht
music producer soon left.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4nSwlxuyt
I walked over to the door and checked if Collins and the music producer were in the hall. But they were gone.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq85rp1EQuF
"Looks like we have to split up and look for Zoey," said Taeyang.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv55CjkHPp5
"Ya, we should," I 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡutQAhGrCDd
nodded my head. "G-Dragon and I will take Christine to the hotel just in931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFicStXioQB
case Zoey shows up and if Collins decides to go there."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemA60HlrnX
"I'll go with Taeyang," said Daniel.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwmkgSQq1b
"And I go with Seungri," said Mike.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTfOOqNwDAe
"That leaves Daesung and I," said TOP.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyiNhuAv2jE
"Great, let's go," I said and we all walked out of the room.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Wq6n1MkHU
As soon as we left the 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOfJyV0FeH
YG building, we split up in the parking lot. Luckily, Collins had 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjObDpcbFG4
already left. Christine and I went with G-Dragon in his car. It was 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQpofHa646G
important that I had to talk to G-Dragon concerning Zoey.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhoyffezhaJ
We soon arrived at the hotel and Christine got out of the car. I gave her my phone for it to be charged.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16sA9Dr9UW
"Call us if anything good happens," I said I looked at Christine through the window.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6cYN90YV9v
"And what if something bad happens?" Christine asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy86dyc1gPc
"Like Collins? You can handle it," I said as I gave her a smile. Christine winked and wished us luck.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ347SIE5vIs
G-Dragon drove away and 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxrVs252W3
we first went to the park where he came with Zoey after lunch. I just 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrt9gCUmkEL
hope she didn't go that far and that she was okay.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJyJ7cYidq
"Did you two have some sort of argument?" I asked when we both got out of the car and I went round it to face him.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcdSA1EG8jr
"What?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnt5q2tzmUM
"Did you two argue?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwJlfmWQYbP
"No, we didn't," said G-Dragon as he went around me and started walking towards the park.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSs8XpH5ubU
I quickly turned and followed him. When I caught up with him, I stood in front of him to stop him.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6dNbNqhaKd
"Are you telling me the truth?" I asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbePPkWWWVC
"Do you think I am lying?" G-Dragon asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡORMawyVQp8
"I think so." I said with my arms folded.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVcFVuimc8i
"You're crazy," said G-Dragon as he walked around me again.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIixrPcWu23
I huffed. He wasn't going to budge. I had to try something to get the truth out of him.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNuguBzbZPh
With quick strides, I 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwNjir93Me4
caught up with him again. This time I started to walk backwards so that I931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsVyl3CPFuR
could look at him directly in his face.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4QbLWcHWse
"What are you doing?" G-Dragon asked as he looked at me, puzzled.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2wBrXjp0VR
"I want you to tell me the truth."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1QZkbPkT4O
"You're stressing yourself out by walking backwards."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSYqOKnRkM
"Do I care?" I raised an eyebrow at him. "I know you're hiding something from me."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcIolbJTS4g
G-Dragon chuckled and 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvufuoGaDjs
that almost made me smile. "Stop playing detective, my little kitty. As 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCXHdhO89OF
much as it suits you, you're going to trip over and fall."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKYPQexyubG
"Then you have to stop me from walking backwards by answering my question."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5tHM9lE7Lp
"This is one silly method of interrogation if you ask me."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaaPQpT4RZU
"I can tell you're not telling me something. Zoey can't just leave like that without someone upsetting her."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeLemvWj8qK
"And how do you know?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb86FB96W4y
"I'm her best friend. 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbBuuKJgviS
And plus, whenever someone gets her really upset, she runs off without 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5fYON4YPp
telling anyone. She always wants be alone to think."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQcq0iRWmE
"I hope she doesn't think of committing suicide."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfEKVKJg1zc
"Zoey can't end her 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBsnfUuFHv
life. Well, she hasn't tried to anyway. She's leaving the dream right 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8rajIcGd7
now and ending her life this early, isn't going to sound right. Unless 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2JJJXOo7tg
you did something."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoBNOxQdIOY
"Me?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7AzxXJnuv
"Da! Yes, you!"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJnLuVTy9HP
"What could I possibly have done for Zoey to try and commit suicide?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRacG0JxfF
"Don't talk about suicide like that." I hit him on the arm.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8th15ZHruf
"Ouch!" G-Dragon stopped and held his arm. "That hurts!"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmlBu2vhhTx
"Well, you deserve it. Now tell me the truth." I put my hands on my hips.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4kquOeBLl
"I'm telling you, Zoey and I didn't argue."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUJ4JDup7J
G-Dragon looked me in the eye and he seemed really convincing.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSpX8UgjE3U
"Okay. I believe you," I said. "But you must have said something that upset her."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhkYsXIiyf
"I can't really remember what I had said to her. Maybe she just left on her own."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQFwyFMRbrp
"And with her phone off, that's a bit strange, don't you think?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzjInQRcAT
"When we find her we will ask why she ran off."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ7S9lhuFLx
"Ya. Sure."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcbg2SHEqJ2
"Now, will you please 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtGDt3J1wz
stop walking backwards? I don't want you to trip and save you from 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhtUFrg9Hq
falling. That will spark rumours again like it did during the 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrw1Pa1uAon
interview."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0tlFFjyEbb
I didn't say anything, 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJLrR0Un01
so I just nodded my head and faced forward. We went further into the 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnV6BtaG5Ek
park and as we looked around for Zoey, we sparked some attention from 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUwHFXzn49y
our darling fans. We signed a few autographs and took a few pictures and931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSniOjyKRIc
went on with our search. We even asked some fans if they had seen Zoey,931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGMMyfB4F6G
but nothing.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGz0emKRCj
We were already half way into the park and still no sign of Zoey. We were by the lake and I sat down on the grass by the banks.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmp8lyYsE2s
"Are you tired already?" G-Dragon asked as he looked down on me.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVEoN5DCPzJ
"I'm not," I said as I 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDyymN0yTs
removed my slippers and felt comfortable with my bare feet on the grass.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5aewJalK0I
"I'm trying to figure out where Zoey could be."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsna5BKnecn
G-Dragon sat down beside931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TRsqZRMIl
me and the two of us were silent, looking at the pond. Laughter filled 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpsi3ujZEJp
my ears as I saw a group of kids playing from across the pond. Some 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEENyxRbOl
couples also sat on the grass close to the pond. It was such a beautiful931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡapBH3UbIh6
day and sitting by the pond felt so relieving.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7vm1n41j3
"Have you figured something yet?" G-Dragon asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiur8JEcwrI
I frowned and looked at him. "No, why do you ask?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ4g8KZGDUR
"You seem to be smiling to yourself," said G-Dragon as he looked at me.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIkUcanhuKh
"No, I'm actually enjoying what I'm experiencing right now."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLreIEPV22
"You love nature, don't you?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJoymKPxW3
I closed my eyes, still smiling. "Ya. I really do."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0t0cOvG09
At that moment, I was so931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFuguNfAV4
caught in the little world inside my head. For a moment, I forgot about931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNXsv3AtqR
everything. About looking for Zoey, being famous, and the whole world 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCwTKqPCBr
with everyone and everything in it. It's like they never existed because931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHx3ugDwGb
even the noise around me seemed non existent.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFkztciDWcP
Then I felt something 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFyWwNwLxw1
brush against my hand like a soft feather. The touch brought me back to 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9sVX8MkMu
reality and I quickly opened my eyes. I looked beside me and G-Dragon 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6qr4dYWN9
was staring at me.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVz12bFC7v
"What?" I asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWVToxVjKZ
"Has anyone ever told you how beautiful you are?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvoQtZmXADh
I blushed all of the 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvvjyib5P8f
sudden and I looked down. His hand covered mine and for a moment I 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlxIxXNFs0h
wanted to pull away. But then again, I couldn't explain how I felt with 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgE25S4i8Dq
his hand on mine. I felt this weird comfort.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZ1kg3luMV
I would have said yes to931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp6rKrZRYw1
his question, but no words came out. This wasn't right. As much as I 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vx8BzrUUA
wanted him close to me, I knew I would end up getting hurt because we 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7lhv3M5FZ
were never meant to be.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Jwp1fC09i
"Umm," I pulled my hand away and put it closer to my body. "Please don't say that GD."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUE570uZWUP
"Why?" He asked softly.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Bnazncedq
"Because this isn't right at all and you know it."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeoZLpqVPaL
"What do you mean?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡruxcNj1rot
"You know that I ready know about Zoey and you. You guys are more like a couple."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxzGg9hyMI
"So?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmRi9r28EK
"I want you to stay far away from me as possible. The further we are apart, the better it is for the both of us."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX19B2G7i9F
"Looks like you figured out that I don't really like Zoey as such as I like you."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYbHWdd0HsP
I didn't say anything as I continued to figure out what to say next.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrU43PxEk3g
"Then why are you leading Zoey on? She doesn't deserve this, you know?" I asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84xk0wZdHk
"I know."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXvH8YHW1Mw
"Then why are you doing this?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwB5MZeneRb
G-Dragon looked at me like he never had before. He soon looked away and sighed.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbV4xpZ9eWj
"I'm doing this because of you, Sam. But even if I do so, I still can't get you out of my head."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPYIPm4vDJ6
I also looked the other way, trying to act like those words hadn't affected me. But they did and they did so badly.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNREBo9klH9
"You should find another931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMA2gzzydK
way to do so, GD." I turned to look back at him and he faced me. "But 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJoalSwlxX
not with Zoey. I don't want her getting hurt because of the both of us. I931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU3pdT8FBGu
will never forgive myself."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtOBuTk91aH
G-Dragon nodded his head. "I'll do so."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWrj8eBfPWg
I wanted to smile but I 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡju4UDFAF19
couldn't bring myself to do it. I hoped he kept his word and maybe with 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3e3Oa4sByR
this little talk we've had, we would be friends again and stop acting 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkm4rLZJG41
like we had beef with each other.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLougEO1cN
Just as I was about to 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWVfpBilyJS
ask him why he had been giving me the attitude lately and if it had 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1uLqG3K1CJ
anything to do with his jealousy, his phone rang. He quickly removed it 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgP2l54eIi
from his pocket and answered it.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhNgBax1Go1
"Hello? Christine?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAEknds1CjX
I was now attentive. Had she found Zoey? I wished I could have talked to her myself.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8eMdkZLmz
"Okay, we will be right there. Inform the others as well."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsTUpvsjJci
"What happened?" I asked after he cut the call.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvsW6iO5Se3
"Christine called to tell me that she knows where Zoey is."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0rkliuc5UM
"Where is she?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeApBnceP3J
"She is at a famous café. I know where it is."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjIsV1ny6gW
"But how did Christine know where Zoey is?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLbSXqxCND4
"Zoey's phone went back on and she texted where she was. And she is not alone."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBxkEbZoReo
"Who is she with?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTGjTKRBAgC
"We're about to find out. Let's go."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDHQ3GeNwk
G-Dragon got up from the931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXhR2i4yYd1
ground and he held out his hand to me. I took it and he pulled me up 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLLJwGo13HA
from the ground. We left the park together, heading towards his car.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNFHdHgCaN
When we got in his car, 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCl2aUL2HM
we drove through the city and we arrived at this small fancy café. We 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZ7trVLydL
parked across the street and before we could get out of the car, I 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWuti28YtT
looked across towards the café.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡteZLUnmSGq
"Can you see, Zoey?" G-Dragon asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO832dpb6eq
Through the huge window,931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡphsfYVIULf
I could see what was going on inside. Looked like a lot of people 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZzLzcOM0Z
enjoyed coming over to the café. The place was parked for an ordinary 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7a9RL4UL0
day in the afternoon.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Jlascz3KK
I searched for Zoey, but931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvbI2tBha4m
I couldn't see her. It was then that I saw Zoey at the far corner of 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtSYwG83EDF
the café. She was facing the window side and I saw her with someone. 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGu4ytZ27us
Sitting opposite her was a man in a fancy looking black suit. From afar,931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsoqY0oRRxi
I could tell his suit was expensive and I couldn't see his face.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMx9Og6WM9f
"I see her," I said. "And she is definitely with someone."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEIcJSdt7H
"Who is it?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TVCk3X1Uc
"I don't know. By the look of his suit, he seems like a business man or one rich tycoon."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZlenx2oWH
"Seriously?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Qwu5af8ox
"You think I'm kidding?" I turned to look at him. "Or are you now jealous that Zoey is hanging out with someone who isn't you?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGC5HZRT7rj
G-Dragon looked towards the windshield, avoiding my gaze. "No, I'm not. I'm just wondering who it was, that's all."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1KNeE9BYX
I rolled my eyes and 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeY6epxfl7R
said nothing more. I went back to looking at the café and focused on 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwddxKmB0j
Zoey. I decided to read her body language and see if she was okay. She 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOtGwcMUApn
looked like she was enjoying herself, chatting with this stranger.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAjzM3yG6zu
She was sipping her cup 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5H4Pz5jaHx
of coffee and she went back to smiling at the stranger. Something was a 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6A2LKXNb3
bit off and I shifted on my seat to see if I was seeing right.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdcj6K8L0jM
"Hey, is something wrong?" G-Dragon asked, noticing my tension.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvbdUOYwgP2
"Ya."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk4FyxxTvTT
G-Dragon also turned on his seat and looked through the window.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJMstsaloi
Zoey's smile made me 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVZXIgukkk
wonder what was going on. She was smiling and chatting but she looked a 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQle15x9uf
little nervous. Usually when she is with a guy, she was always the one 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8DNy5M9DcB
who was never scared of leading the conversation and became pretty931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2lLairX7C
comfortable with the person. Unless the guy was creepy enough to be a serial killer.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzs8GMIhPps
I felt a threat coming 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡruzz98fkUH
up. Was this guy dangerous? Zoey had a nervous smile on her face and if I931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Y2edj9RwJ
was not mistaken, I think I noticed her fingers tap frantically on the 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHzMT3IP9r
table. She did that whenever she was nervous. I had to know what was 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41Y6FtHgL5
going on in there.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ol0xAf1dK
"Let's go," I said as I turned to look at G-Dragon. "I'm not liking this."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt47T4RfUsT
"Thank you," said G-Dragon, looking relieved. "I had a bad feeling about this guy."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxOcs15Wh3
"Ya, right," I said as I grabbed the handle of the door, opened it and stepped out.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMRqUPIyUwj
Just as G-Dragon came 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrYPkm2nNG
out of the car, three cars appeared off the main road and came to park 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxbTByea6v
in the parking space behind G-Dragon's car. The others had arrived.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTYcP3sHK0
"Christine told us to meet you here," said Taeyang as he and Mike came out of his car.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz2c34HsWUV
"Zoey's in the café," I said as I pointed across the road.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXypFRLnP8o
"Alright, let's go," said Seungri.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTLHvfoHBU5
When I looked back at the café window, I noticed that Zoey was all alone on her table. That was odd. Where was he?931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxEMOFpwT6
"Oh, no, no, no," I said staring wide eyed inside the café.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7TfkLzytgw
"What is it, Sam?" Daesung asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNxEuPKYbPP
I didn't answer him as I931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcG6FOYZnVp
quickly dashed across the road without even checking for any cars. I 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy2DaBHpxcV
could hear the others behind call out to me to be careful. I luckily 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFrKHm3dqz0
managed to reach the café without getting hit.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiLENP1r2wj
When I got to the café, a931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4VNjPLhpBz
few people came out through the door. None of them matched the person 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhX9iehCShg
who was in the café with Zoey. I quickly went in and I found Zoey still 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtFhLxnEdhH
sitting in the corner. I rushed over to her that my presence scared her.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTuAMasF0Bo
"Sam! You scared me to death!" Zoey held her chest as she breathed in and out so heavily, trying to calm down.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhetbZXGSf
"Where did you go?" I asked, taking the seat the stranger had been sitting on earlier.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3R6PQnZIfk
"Oh, I...um.." Zoey played with her fingers.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGl8jwXIMr1
"Don't you dare try to 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHWZwxrmxR5
lie to me, Zoey," I threatened. "You went with GD for lunch and the two 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gLppLKiJs
of you went to the park. When GD went to get ice cream, you had 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGHR2m5Wzr
disappeared. And the next thing we know, you're here."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFEoVCa93oe
"Christine told you where I was?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhWJKWAu4Ds
"Of course she had to. We were worried sick."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0g59SSJkhr
I heard the bell of the 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJa3XSJejOz
café ring and I knew the others had arrived. They soon came over by the 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvmgDRXFpMe
table. Only Taeyang, G-Dragon and Daniel were the ones who came in.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUVpT8Qjsu
"Zoey where have you been?" Daniel asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhrqIuBA5RT
"And who was that guy you were with, huh?" G-Dragon asked, looking down at Zoey with a frown on his face.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBip21EtxXY
"Awww, are you jealous, my G-Dragon?" Zoey smiled at him.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8qf32JL3QG
"Stop taking all this 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCO2SCTTNO
like a joke, Zoey. I saw the way you were behaving with him. You weren't931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb52v1syW7B
yourself when I saw you from across the street," I said.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSWR03jUR8b
The smile on Zoey's face931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5VdKPO18q
disappeared in an instant. Good. Maybe now she would take us seriously.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8pdb7wUfm
Her safety was way more important than she could ever imagine. If 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOB9f8hC3V
anything had happened to her, a lot of us here would never forgive 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJM3cDrDpL
ourselves.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZIGoPXVEf
"Can we please get out of here?" Taeyang suggested. "This isn't the place to discuss this."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62rgln6dLU
"You're right," I said 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcYbgBKS48w
as I looked around the café and many heads were turning our way. I hated931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQXnaUHVyS
attracting so much attention sometimes.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK76OvoG20n
The others had started 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFf1kXV2W1f
to leave and Zoey and I both stood up from the table. I noticed the 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOhSjcVhFk
teacup the stranger had used and my mind still couldn't stop thinking 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHapuvrUSia
about who he was.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMV9ougQ7Ju
After we left the café, 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB76Z9BSYfK
we went back across the road where the vehicles were parked. Daesung, 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLmeYmwVsr9
TOP, Mike and Daesung stood waiting for us.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwcVZ2g8knI
"Thank goodness, you're alright, Zoey," said Daesung.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBe2rHGdQXy
"Ya, thank goodness you weren't lost," said Mike. "We wondered if we would find you in a ditch or something."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJqE0Nhg9L
Zoey frowned at Mike and all he could do was smile back at her mischievously.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMHHkbhVio
"Let's all go back to the hotel, shall we?" I suggested. "Zoey can tell us everything from there."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBF8KGWS06n
Zoey and I went in 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwy8lxG79o
G-Dragon's car making sure I sat in the backseat. The others got in the 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHYmcxe94DF
other cars and we drove off, G-Dragon's car leading the way.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4afqyUzXrs
We were all back in the 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQ3AGo0Cx4
hotel on our floor. Luckily, Collins wasn't around. I was relieved. Now I931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Rz9Chc8CI
could vent out all my anger on Zoey.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJKF34RFr2
We gathered ourselves in931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVl86NYvPC
the lounge. The others sat on the couch and made themselves 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxCBzKf2JM
comfortable. Zoey and I were left standing and I looked at her, with my 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRXNicG89u3
hands on my hips.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0UEirDXOkK
"Okay, let's start with why you disappeared?" I asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfPhtbfxroT
"No, don't ask that," said G-Dragon. "Ask who she was with first."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxXrubTMmp
"I'm the one asking the questions." I turned to face G-Dragon. "I want to know what made her go like that."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7RQ9Hcx4sS
"Fine, I tell you," said931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQk0BeycHo
Zoey raising her hand to calm me down. "G-Dragon went over to get some 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9FYfJoDlb
ice cream when a person came up to me. Said he was my biggest fan."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6pgng7KWGd
"Don't tell me you fell for the person's good looks like always," said Christine shaking her head.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBlu1CHo7Ut
"You know handsome men are my weakness," said Zoey. "Sorry G-Dragon."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZ2sIYnmOg
"No, I don't mind," said931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDpccxYggsa
G-Dragon, shaking his head. I looked at him again and I was surprised 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltcjeuR8gx
with the look on his face that he really didn't mind at all.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8DLkCFyW0
"So, he said he is your biggest fan and then what?" Taeyang asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZilByOt1Ok
"He offered that the two of us go out for some coffee," said Zoey. "That's how I left."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmrcFJuuvH3
"Now that makes no sense or maybe you have no sense, Zoey," said Seungri.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK56aPIEBf5
"Huh?" Zoey looked at Seungri, looking embarrassed.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQaEAVGKi8
"As much as that sounds 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ54En8b8Gfd
totally embarrassing, Seungri is right," said Christine. "What you said 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHvhzuWfYF5
doesn't make sense at all. How could you go out for coffee with someone 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLEdaQ0eoEC
you claims to be your fan without taking G-Dragon along with you?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIm84BIKh37
I started to tap my foot931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5XhlwYTN5X
and looked at Zoey, ready to breathe out fire if necessary. Christine 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEbKe1LFWqQ
was right and surprisingly, Seungri too. She wasn't telling us the 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE8uW8Yhnrm
truth.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qZeg9DJIm
"Come on, Zoey, tell us 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzXyaG7Fpso
what really happened," I said. "You couldn't leave without GD. And you 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5y12wpuya8
had your phone turned off. All I know about the person you were with is 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU6wVtsbvT1
that he was wearing an expensive black suit."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvg03XWoMsY
"Okay, do you really want to know the truth?" Zoey asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzjFnvT3wyL
"Yes!" everyone replied at the same time, that almost made Zoey jump in fright.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWgf7kOB66
"Okay, okay, eish," said931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkm0xI4pFgk
Zoey. "You scared the hell out of me. The truth is, I went with my fan 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Yo9cycBWB
because he insisted that I go with him and not tell anyone about it."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3OPnjpV2iy
"Huh?" TOP looked confused.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaonIb9xzj5
"What fan lays out that kind of condition?" Mike asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPl5ztjMlw
"Someone who was ready to take advantage of Zoey," I answered.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQWXPrxfDr
"If he did, you guys still wouldn't have found me," said Zoey.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡONojVTPxnn
"If he did, you wouldn't have been looking so nervous in the café."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1sEnKrhv1T
Zoey was quiet and I still felt that she wasn't telling us the whole truth. I decided to play along and not say a word.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8QpAqMxw0
"Then what were you two talking about?" I asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzVtX6GSRYC
"Just stuff," said Zoey, avoiding my eyes. "About me and my celebrity life."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrwIOcMWeHh
"You're sure?" I asked. "Didn't he talk about himself?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSow7c36lA
"Ya, totally." Zoey nodded her head. He never said anything about himself. Not even his name."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCtkLXwDg2
"Then why did you look so nervous in the café?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlgXnkVcUby
"He was asking some personal questions I didn't like."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGpphKaUPU
"Are you sure?" Daniel 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQY9g2SP8f3
asked. "When someone asks you a personal question, you either snap back 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1idbdlqJfb
at them or walk away. Whether it's an annoying reporter, any of your 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznWTLq74st
haters or even us."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7oaNG7u1vy
Daniel was right. Zoey 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9mTkIIMOu9
would have stood and walked away from the stranger but she didn't. I 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFX1Qqh7Rd1
wondered what question he might have asked her. That's if Zoey was 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsoUYeX8f12
telling the truth.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJKXNGbkJF
"I didn't want to look so mean in front of him," said Zoey. "He seemed like a very nice guy."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdiDYqdVTWZ
"A very nice guy that 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Li2WzdkL6
made you run off with him, made you switch off your phone and made you 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSGq16LKFu
so uncomfortable," said G-Dragon, looking really irritated.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZrjPNM140V
"Come on," said Zoey. "He wasn't that bad, seriously."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPMyyZZAlAE
I didn't want to 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEeIMEmgu73
pressurise Zoey with more questions. Right now, she was getting away 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9nNt4l6bW3
with it. If she was hiding something, I would find out sooner or later.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXEZzaEWfG
"Okay," I said. "We're just glad you're fine."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa419DZpOEF
"And not dead," said 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk3RMbhHt1z
Mike with a smirk. Seungri and Christine who sat on either side of him, 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQo28OglZx
both gave him the elbow in the side and he howled in pain.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4BzGw31DN
"I'll pretend I never heard that," said Zoey.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7NnIs5Iw4T
"And you better get 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUXhy3sUgK
ready for Collins," I said giving Zoey a smirk of my own. "We told him 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNM774Mr5u
you had a bad tummy ache and that's why you weren't at the studio."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68em9E2n42
"Seriously?" Zoey gave me an angry stare. "Couldn't you have told him a better lie?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbEvmyk8GIz
"That you were missing? Fat chance. You've already put some of us into enough trouble for one day."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIy8qfphwhH
"Alright. Sorry. I won't do that again."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeszpRWZexz
I rolled my eyes, while shaking my head and went over to the dining table. Something told me it wouldn't be the last.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALuCvG8uMh
"Well, now that you're found," said Daesung, as he stood up. "Some of us better get going."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyv6neXBgOP
"Sorry for putting you guys into so much trouble," said Zoey.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPMlaeDAdcI
"As long as you're fine and Collins isn't going to kill us, it's okay," said Taeyang with a smile.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNUPYHa4KO
"I'll be leaving too," said Seungri and he gave Zoey a hug and he walked over to hug me as well.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJL8eV2mvP
"Alright, see you tomorrow," I said.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv7FaPVSwdm
One by one the BigBang 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOyGd8ieQxF
members started to leave, saying bye to each other. G-Dragon stayed 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBGREVYqdBJ
behind with Zoey so that they could talk a little. Giving them privacy, 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQghAW6IO9Z
Christine, my brothers and I left for our rooms.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyTdtjIbbKE
When I went in my room, I931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKfDxqMPLU
went for my phone that was still charging on my bed. The phone was 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWDNZYKFwA
still off and I decided to switch it on. It was almost full.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUoOaOL7Cvl
There was a knock on the door and I called out to the person to come in. Christine entered.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSwYlohhskm
"Hey, can we talk?" Christine asked as she closed the door behind her.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHi1NdivK3
"About what?" I turned to look at her.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBcDnKAO1hE
"Do you really believe what Zoey told us?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxr0MBAQXSK
"No, I don't." I sat on the bed.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD5E9xeerPA
"Looks like I'm not the only one," said Christine as she came to sit on Zoey's bed, facing me.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqSHme74Yjb
"I wonder why she isn't telling us the truth."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE9wpq1AxUF
"Did you see the man's face?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJwIygnOwE
"No. All I could say is that he wore a fancy and expensive suit."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHTM6QZThz
"I wonder who he is. Maybe he is some rich tycoon or something."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbceT7Eq7Fl
"That's what I thought too." I gave Christine a smile.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRqWyJwX8X
"I bet he is good 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡex0N68MFTD
looking too. I still wonder why Zoey left like that without telling 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5tfepDenSZ
anyone. Do you think she really did all that just because the stranger 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe40XseTdGC
told her to?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU6jXkxoVy9
"Well, I believe her on that part. I'm just wondering how he managed to convince her to come with him. Maybe he threatened her?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQR6QpsNdD
Christine's jaw dropped. "Don't say that. I know there is no any other logical explanation, but I think that's way too far."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9nYFOauL4
"You said so yourself, Christine. There is no other explanation. He might have blackmailed her or something."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvav4qhol2a
"Okay, but blackmailed her with what?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ02iFZDs45q
"That we have to find out."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJfE4lNsIy
I was just about to grab my phone and check out if I had any messages when Zoey came in the room.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvahd0YEaDX
"Oh. Has GD left already?" Christine asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCebk1qqsSL
"Ya. He left," Zoey replied. I heard a bit of sadness in her voice.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOSJ0BNaM8B
"Are you okay? You don't look alright," I said.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8O8tM8PcI
"I'm fine. G-Dragon and I talked about something serious."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTmKRM7SKXY
Oh my. Had he told her 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiCvwUtolxA
about what we had discussed earlier at the park? As much as I knew it 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZSLKCYpJ3
was going to hurt Zoey, it was for the best. Besides, she was going to 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3XoRcNPw7J
find someone way better than G-Dragon. Hopefully, even me.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxcp1nzgyh
"What did you talk about?" I asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHAErqvR8Hr
"He was just pissed that931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQD3EcJv54p
I left like that," Zoey answered. "He thought maybe he said something 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDngz4OgZw8
that might have upset me or something."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUQFkT7ep9
"Oh." That wasn't what I was expecting. "Well, I had asked him earlier if he had said something that might have upset you."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTudrYEgfEg
"But he didn't."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQmdkjdMq0
"I see why Sam asked," 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbOSJ1sVfc
said Christine. "When someone gets you so upset, you run away. You've 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtkag28blH
done that many times before back home during our school days, you know?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy1H2BeZWVp
"Ya I know. Forget about it." Zoey waved her hand in annoyance. "What's happened has happened."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk0WMtlCKKF
And I hope it will never931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdGJwx8r74w
happen again, but this guy in the suit still worried me. Until I know 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhFpam6DDtc
who he is, I wasn't going to pretend that the worst has passed when it 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZLupDCj5q
was yet to come at any moment.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6DhQb35Zz3
The next thing I knew, the door to our room flew open and Lee walked in.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw490sXEhth
"Lee!" the three of us exclaimed in excitement.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVKeqxhhhhJ
"Wow! Did you guys miss me?" Lee asked with a smile on her face.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfT8WKSaNHO
"Ya, we did," said Zoey, putting her arm over Lee's shoulders.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEfTesc22vD
"Well, I missed you too," said Lee. "So, what happened today? I heard you never finished up on the song."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPmjMgnHnjF
Christine, Zoey and I 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJEKdEnri7
shook our heads and talked randomly at the same time, saying nothing 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdoCxSKoWE0
really happened. Lee knew something was up and even if it could clearly 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJwVvhhuz03
show on her face, she didn't push us. She just smiled.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn8YWkqr90a
"Well, you'll tell me later," said Lee. "Collins and I were just....."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjtiHeyDbHk
"Collins is here!" Zoey's face went white like a sheet.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrWmZTB1qKB
"Yes, he is," said Lee 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlclrQV0LqM
with a wicked smile. "Now if you don't want to get into trouble, I 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtSA9yJRiFg
suggest you go on your bed and cry out that you still aren't feeling 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSyurL1lhR
well."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhEYUIChEPZ
Christine and I almost burst out laughing. Zoey frowned.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE15PyMSuY4
"Ha, ha, very funny," said Zoey as she went over to her bed and sat down.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsB4VzETPye
"As I was saying," said Lee. "We were in the lobby when we received a package from the receptionist. Said it was for you guys."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1CGRBAoj2
"Us?" I asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpzVGLvzDHF
"Ya, the letter on the package was directed to The Toxins. It's with Collins in the lounge."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0lXSaqtTBk
Christine and I rushed 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnhZ2nygzhB
out of the room leaving Zoey with Lee. She had to pretend she was still 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2uYptkiqb3
not feeling well. We found Collins in the lounge with the package in his931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSutXrWAsPE
hand.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7f4zcW7TY
"Hey, Collins," I said. "What's that?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ70mBJgo3z
"This came in for you guys," said Collins. "And with a letter too."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRz16eJqKU9
"Did I hear there is something for us?" Daniel asked as he and Mike came in the lounge.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhcFscLLRMA
"Ya. Here you go." Collins gave me the package.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ6MEVszUeS
The package was wrapped in a brown wrapper and on top of it was a white envelope. It was directed to us just as Lee said.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWL5I1kRmvX
I took the letter and 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDaXkESt1nI
gave the package for Christine to hold and opened the envelope to remove931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jEFF8dKKI
a letter. I unfolded the letter and I read it out loud:931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIYN1f5Nwf0
"Hope you're all okay. Just wanted to say I'm your biggest fan. With lots of love."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZGOTLyGAK
"That's it?" Mike asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmRBx1DC2UL
"Ya, that's pretty much it," I said, looking behind the letter but there was nothing. "No name at all."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2iKMTX7vL6
"Did you see anyone who sent this?" Daniel asked Collins.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMOyDcp95w
"All that the 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYE3HI5AJJO
receptionist told us was that some young man in a suit gave it to her 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡycJBpNnvea
and she should give either you guys or us when we came by the lobby."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXyyYsDjE21
My eyes went wide and my931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Z9YhmQ8jK
heart pace quickened. Did Collins just say a young man in a suit? Maybe931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXyBwMUGCa
I heard wrong and needed some clarification.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydbBnKti6c
"A young man in a suit?" Mike asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ44x3uEJSaM
"Ya. Do you perhaps know him?" Collins asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHncqNOoI2N
"Huh, no," said Christine, shaking her head.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2pKIpwBO9M
"Oh. For a moment there, you guys looked a little frightened," said Collins. "I thought you might know him."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhjlw5q6mB
We did know him all right. The man who had been with Zoey. But who really was this guy? And this package? What could be in it?931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcjTstE4oBk
"Open it, Christine," said Daniel.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9CFR36TTI4
Christine threw Daniel 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXhJfNDsSK
an angry glance. She obviously didn't want to open it and I knew what 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8wnu8mwEh
she was thinking. What if there was a bomb inside? Or maybe something to931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlxGlJ27vL
threaten or blackmail us? You could only think of the worst from a 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl7P5fdhgSs
person you barely even knew.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzuQCK3DJx1
"Let me," I said as I took the package from Christine and I sat down on the couch with the package on my lap.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTb3QjEztG
Collins was watching us for a second and then left the lounge. I sighed in relief and so did the others.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQ6Rz7iy5U
"I thought he would never leave," Mike whispered after we heard the door to Collins' room open and close.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxUZM8iLRq
"Can you check if he is really in his room?" I asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV0nfp3AVIh
Mike went in the hall and came back seconds later. "He is in the room."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqeR8iRXTvO
"I'm really nervous," said Christine. "What is in there?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3R7A26OKq
"I don't know," said Daniel. "I hope it is nothing that could kill us."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCzPOYUI1uF
Mike hit Daniel at the back of his head and Daniel whined in pain.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaaKR9lJ2rp
"Don't say that," said Mike. "I don't want to die soon."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSW5PyferDt
"Guys, calm down," I said. "Let's just open this thing and see what's in it."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ79Bc8SgC1S
"Okay, but take your 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcfylIbCTJe
time," said Christine. "If there is a bomb in there, I want to say my 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhIIASQpA4q
last prayers before I leave this earth."931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmS6uwoamVW
I rolled my eyes but I 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxAxQqKd42l
was as scared as the rest of them. If we were to make out of this alive,931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd3nNW1AaDM
I was going to kill Zoey myself for dragging us into this mess.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJi4Yo45k1o
I started to unwrap the package. It was a white box.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8aj4O1mpZF
The other three couldn't931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsP9Zayy5wa
stop staring at the box and I needed to end this paranoia once and for 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwAYcoIlaq
all. I quickly removed the lid without thinking that there might be 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIdhqf3rzv
something dangerous in the box. The others even covered their faces. But931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIfR8jNbhQA
nothing happened.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNOMGUGaTT
"What the....?" I looked in the box and what I saw, shocked me completely.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOowOwmnQH
"What is it?" Christine asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZS76lE5I3Y
I looked up at the 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGWSSUFSsFn
others and they bended over to see what was in the box. Their jaws 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAk9ZStA0xE
dropped almost at the same time and we looked at each other.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAlzcwqNwE
"This is just ridiculous," I said as I shook my head.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ159M2ujCqo
Christine, Mike and Daniel suddenly burst out laughing.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTikhOsaFw2
Zoey and Lee came rushing into the lounge.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTFATi0soU
"Hey? What's going on?" Zoey asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOlNMvLLgVG
No one answered. I was too speechless to say anything and the rest were still laughing.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPM0oBvd6h
"What is in the package, Sam?" Lee asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIhksf0mbs
I soon removed a little cute brown teddy bear and held it up for Zoey and Lee to see.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlaWbc7GFYO
"Huh? You're laughing all because of a teddy bear?" Zoey looked at the others, wondering if they were okay in the head.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfu2OrkoSVF
"Oh, my goodness, Zoey," said Christine trying to catch her breath with tears in her eyes. "Can't you see it?"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZIFIeHufkD
"See what?" Zoey and Lee asked the same time.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRwMLhyjYWZ
"The...the...suit!" Mike laughed even more, pointing at the teddy bear.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyA9MLCS8Ac
It was then that Zoey 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡruQI2IM6lc
looked at the bear in my hand and recognised that the tiny teddy bear 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz2aU2957P6
wore a tiny black suit with a tiny black tie. Zoey looked like she was 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpNA0smtWC
about to get sick. Looked like she already figured out it was the931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwGXC5h0Vq
stranger who she was with today that sent it.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQFYJEJ545
"Guys, what am I missing here?" Lee asked.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbuSWV7CpWp
"Zoey will tell you all about it," I said. "I believe this is yours." I gave the teddy bear to Zoey who held it in her hand.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXcTfupWcn
The other three continued to laugh when they saw Zoey take the bear. Lee looked as confused as ever.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJujMizUVn
"And here I thought it was a bomb," said Daniel, wiping away the tears in his eyes.931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17kv2tBkcX
"Ya. But it just turned out to be a bear in a suit," said Christine. "A harmless bear!"931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyhvaCZsoxi
This time, they laughed 931Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99igAymBIp
