Stuck In A K-Pop World: Hitting With A Big Bang (A Black Kitty Series, Book 1) - Chapter 21: At The Mall

Sunday was quiet and 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTzpORfmgpE
pretty not much the same when you know that your best friend isn't 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPs5RgsgxE
talking to you anymore. As much as I would have liked to bring up any 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFyvkLAuCCW
random topic just for Zoey to talk to me, I knew she wouldn't respond or1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUU4V8WQyqd
listen. She wouldn't even stay in the same room with me.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7AZ0LitTpK

Last night, Zoey moved 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCzHoUbfxPu
out from our room and since we booked the entire floor, she went over to1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvTm0N1lc4u
the other room, far away from me. I couldn't blame her though and I 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkC0X4i5lKT
didn't even try to talk her out of it. No one even bothered to try and 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDf4sYQrG7Z
talk to her either.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs20885GSie

And so did Collins, who had no idea what was going on.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzq53m2mxVx

It so happened that 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqyytYBkKih
while Zoey was moving out of our room with some of her personal 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMCmtVpr8r
belongings, Collins appeared out of the elevator. He had asked her what 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8sKMY0y0wd
was going on and as usual, when Zoey is upset, she hardly talks to 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzpOlWSrFAj
anyone. When Collins asked the rest of us what was going on, I told him 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXrPOUrx4b
that Zoey and I had an argument. With that, he didn't ask any more.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXNaxHI8nxo

Now, I was sitting 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVj6YomPal
lazily on the couch in the lounge on a Sunday, trying to see anything 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡntaMm05Oja
interesting to watch on YouTube so as to pass time since my brothers had1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcxKamTZth
now taken control of the TV playing Call of Duty. I did enjoy myself 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9FKC2tFznt
watching k-pop music videos with the likes of BTS, EXO and many others.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOBsQg8lvRU

I was lying down in a sleeping position, still watching videos when Lee came into the lounge.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Ek9Dio8AS

"Are you just going to sit there the whole day like a lazy bum?" Lee asked as she came over to me.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNdaHqnE1UN

"What?" I asked as I removed an earpiece from my ear. I heard her loud and clear even with my earpieces on.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIiIWCph0Vd

"You heard me," said Lee looking down on me, with an annoying look on her face. "Are you going to sit here the whole day?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPbkzv0axH

"Uh, ya," I nodded my head and put the earpiece back in my ear.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYvosa4XKw6

"Get up, let's go," said Lee as she pushed my legs and they dropped from the couch to the floor.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF6B3ilFm0f

"Lee!" I whined, putting1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOu6ZfubQfs
my feet back up on the couch. Daniel and Mike who were on the floor 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBLHaAyQL6i
facing the TV, turned to look at Lee and I, pausing their game.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegKBz8d2Cy

"This isn't like you, Sam," said Lee, dropping my feet again. "You need to go out and have fun. It's Sunday."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR0zUljYIxM

"But I want to be here and watch videos on YouTube," I said as I sat upright.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxval5xfLR3

"No buts, Sam. We're going out whether you like it or not."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwrLOU5hMHA

"Why? I want to stay here."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCl8A2UABFR

"I need to go and shop 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjA6aRpKnx
for a few things and I think it will do you a lot of good too. Not after1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLbf7bZKABL
what happened yesterday. I can tell you need a distraction."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX67yu82c5X

"But watching YouTube 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1ySDsCV8z
videos is the perfect distraction if you ask me. Besides, you should 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCbHPsgANY
check out these other k-pop artists and groups. They are so awesome."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOsgHGzyVD

Lee turned to my brothers who still had their eyes on us the entire time. "Help me out here, guys. What should I do?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiohzzf6b8C

"I think Lee is right, 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpDO5Bqaho
Sam," said Daniel. "We all aren't busy today and you usually like going 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZtTuOqD0D0
out on Sundays like you do back home."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJPDiaYYnA

"But what's wrong with staying here for a while and do nothing but watch videos?" I asked, looking at my brothers.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCssZnAHQ0x

"I know you're a fan of 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuArATMN2ra
YouTube but the Sam I know wouldn't be here lazing around after what 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ghqnpT1ZR
happened with G-Dragon and Zoey," said Mike.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡncKtxBorZd

"So, what you're trying to say is that I've to try and figure out what to do with those two?" I asked.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFBGZ2YnNN

"Well, that's what 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXvUAzbbHZ0
you're good at," said Daniel. "You did say you were going to try and 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXwMksLrHuu
resolve things with Zoey. You usually come up with ideas to do so."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrYP1F4nxv1

"But that's when I decide to go out somewhere and think."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzdVLJd5mUy

"That's what we are 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAexxHlYFXH
telling you, Sam. Start thinking things out or else at the end of it 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB6s1D9UCT1
all, we won't be able to make the music video. Not with Zoey acting like1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjRBgCHD7x
the goddess of wrath and G-Dragon still mad at you."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo0MEa0CcbM

Daniel's right. I had to1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMvSfJY3akW
figure out what to do with those two and me sitting here wasn't going 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQaRPi9XsM
to solve anything. But how could I tell them that there were now other 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡosXHs8BDZj
problems to deal with? Like Zoey and Derrick's brother for example?1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZiUXSPIa6B

Unlike the others, Lee 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyPu8cC24I4
was the only person whom I told about what happened when I left YG 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXEc4od64Io
yesterday to meet with Derrick who told me what had been going on with 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVXYk1lzWHx
Zoey and his brother. And right now, dealing with Derrick's brother was 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQ4brxCASn
going to be a lot tougher than trying to sort things out with G-Dragon 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcHt6uwiV6m
and Zoey together.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqy4UQnx5Qg

I really wanted to tell 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwmLnHoLtLZ
these guys what was going on. Besides, they were there with Zoey in 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYyDJqENV6h
Paris and they might have some clue as to what was really going on. But I1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhimUPbI8b8
didn't want to worry them. Not yet, at least. I had already put them 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2ms71IHMp
through a lot because of my secrets and I was doing so all over again. 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC2Dg5WmwBM
When was I ever going to change?1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkROiAlmIVA

"Okay, I'll go," I said as I stood up. "You're right. I have to think of something, and fast."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZxygfvndR

"Great," said Lee. "Now, go get your shoes. Collins isn't around so we can stay out for as long as we want."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvcQQEk3dfn

"Has anyone seen Christine?" Daniel asked.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwKK5rY0zek

"She is with Zoey," said Mike, rolling his eyes as he mentioned Zoey's name. "They are probably in the room talking."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3JLDjBEJVy

"Hopefully, Christine would be able to convince Zoey to forgive me," I said.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo9rO524mxY

Lee, Mike and Daniel 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3tqDUieUTm
shook their heads and muttered out words of disapproval. I didn't say 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSb1nnUdYF
anything, as I also shook my head. I went out of the lounge, straight to1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIFR8yxadtb
my room to get my shoes.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWp946PuWm

After I wore my white 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLa2XQ8sdul
pumps to match with my white jeans and purple tank top, I took my purse 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtO97x6YecI
and went to Christine's room. I made sure to knock first, and when 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRC2pjEfyV5
Christine called from inside to come in, I slowly opened the door. I 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKFNyuxpgWl
didn't go in the room as I saw Christine and Zoey on the bed facing each1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWz3ChY8xI3
other. They were quiet when they saw me at the door.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkh8bjxUpvu

"Hey," I said. Zoey looked away, ignoring me. "Lee and I will be going out. I just wanted to let you know."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDnIXJU1an5

"Okay," said Christine. "Have fun."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOP9t6cgmYh

I nodded my head and quickly closed the door. It was still clear that Zoey didn't want to talk to me.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCT4eBSrNqp

I walked down the hall and back to the lounge where Lee was waiting for me.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGd3bSJq4qg

"We can go, now," I told her.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW2xsGbRqpl

"Alright, see you guys," said Lee as she turned to the boys.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLSrqmEkuq

"Bye," said Mike, his eyes glued to the TV screen and his fingers continually working on the control buttons on the game pad.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjhMeQggEHO

"Have fun, Sam," said Daniel as he managed to look at me and smile.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWedPSDi66v

I smiled back at him. 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6h3CAmC1p
Then Lee and I took off for the elevator. When we reached the ground 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1BnQQskmg
floor, the SUV was waiting for us as usual. And there were two body 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIIeymehfeC
guards in the other SUV.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKdEg2fMQtJ

"Looks like you have everything planned out for the day," I said as I entered the car and Lee followed.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7HZn3Crma

"Well, someone had to bring you back to reality and focus on what's really important," said Lee, as she closed the door.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvKWCmqrCXv

"If you mean Zoey and G-Dragon, I don't know what to do anymore."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Ai74jifeN

The car's engine roared to life and the car drove out for the hotel premises with other car following behind us.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTAxC2yb5L

"So, where are we going?" I asked.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07591b1KpI

"To the mall," Lee answered.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1U7nFLDnhg

"How will the mall help me figure things out?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkjEtK2Bf0a

"What's wrong with the 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWP80QmF1ds
mall? Just trying to distract yourself will help you out. Sometimes the 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7IJlEvNyPj
best plans just come out of the blue."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUNqOV2enG

"I should have just stayed behind and continued watching videos."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2p4nDLgJLd

"And waste the day away? No way."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWqHv6T065J

"Come on, Lee. Right now, I have no idea what to do and watching videos was the perfect way to distract myself."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BgNwnL504

"I know. I had to get you away from there so that we can talk about Derrick's brother."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WllfBFImi

"And what am I going to do with him? Unless I find out what Zoey's hiding, I can't come up with anything."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2cmZQGskZ

"Didn't you check around the room for any clues?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmBF8NGA3H

"No. Zoey might have 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHGGczscck
moved some of her stuff out of the room, but if she was hiding 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHVZ434rMl
something, she isn't dumb enough to leave it behind. I checked last 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcMERvqqL5F
night when she moved out and I couldn't find anything."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkiE6OPrI1g

"Well that's a bummer. What do you think she's hiding?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMeLw1JzeVS

"I don't know. But the way Derrick described his brother, I'm expecting it's something serious."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6Mf0VVx1Z

"Are you sure you checked everywhere?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1lQowQBWUa

"The closet, her suitcase and even under the bed. There is nothing."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXffYr6oOy

Lee remained quiet and as for me, I went to looking at the windshield in front of me, looking down the streets of Seoul.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubbzi7O9Xn

"I don't know what to do1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhoOh7sZuS
anymore," I said, my eyes still on the road. "Now that I know that Zoey1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmvisCLDub0
might be in trouble, I can't just sit by and watch quietly. I know Zoey1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfKBUjguBt
doesn't like to admit she is in trouble, but I have to help her out 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9OtZ18iw0
somehow."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJaSDMWKbGx

"But we can't do this alone, you know? At some point, we will have to involve the others too."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzOxgI82Yto

"True. And I'll also have to ask the others their side of the story with what happened in Paris."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ia97pKvzH

"Mmm. Acting a true detective. Trying to put one piece of a puzzle together with another."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcIimAeoUqL

I folded my arms as I 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7DMrY7Nw9
leaned back further in my seat, the wheels of my mind starting to work 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6TSMprariV
but I couldn't figure out what to do. I had too many problems to deal 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2Yl2I62nW
with and it was driving me nuts. I wonder why I wasn't running around 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpkkJaMQQCi
the street with a crazy hairdo at this point.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZXAtE2bpdt

We soon reached the mall1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxTdlETCH1
and we came out of the car, heading towards the building with our two 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwvylfrLx9R
body guards behind us. I carried my shades with me this time and I wore 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdsD8f9N9z
them as we went in the mall. I could already feel eyes on me and see 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmA1xHmQgqE
phones coming out out of people's pockets as we passed. I was glad that 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnu4jLUjN3a
the bodyguards were around.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9QmhA5m1CQ

Lee and I first went 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy1WFsTgGqV
shopping for clothes. We even tried out some of them. I had to admit, 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5R2kGoPjD1
shopping and trying out new clothes made me forget about some things for1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLfEUaNCc2I
a while. I was having fun.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxEiRtSQPFw

And when it came to the fans, some were brave enough to go past the guards and come take photos with me and take autographs.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGQqCHpQN7C

Lee and I soon came out 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIufae9AsOZ
of a shoe store after buying some expensive shoes. I bet I bought more 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPYYJjww4Hk
clothes than shoes and Lee was vice versa. We even managed to buy a few 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcta44aFlge
things for the others as well. The bodyguards had to help us out with 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw9sPQctfG9
our bags because we bought way too much.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSCeheCasYX

When we walked out of 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasgQOgiVxt
the store, Lee suggested that we go down to the food court and get 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI033imsMkf
ourselves something to eat. We were above the ground floor and just as 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1HqioxN4i
we were about to take the glass elevator, I noticed that opposite the 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDmhRR9G7Ta
elevator was a toy store. I looked at the toys shown on display.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡldxdprU37q

"Hey, what are you looking at?" Lee asked as she noticed that I had stopped.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfw6MkZDCnv

I couldn't answer Lee. I1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNd4voC6APM
also didn't know why I was staring at the toys on display. Something 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GuBAh5j9A
had drawn me to this store and I wondered what it was.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU6xBGXzGLE

"Hello! Earth to Sam!" Lee's fingers snapped in front of me.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGb9LdJAlX1

"Huh?" I turned to look at Lee.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx6dbGoERgU

"What's wrong? What are you looking at?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqgjut5Kiks

"I..." I went back to looking at the toys on the glass display. "I don't know."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGYQpkvr3c

"You don't know? You're staring at those toys like you want to buy them all."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9oIzvHwu7P

"I'm not a child, Lee." I rolled my eyes at her.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvn4eMmWZoX

"Then why are you looking at those toys like that?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm9DkVu2C4J

"I...I..." I scratched my head. This was weird even for me too.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf0Puf415So

I looked at each and 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVeulTXOGvX
every single toy on display till my eyes rested on a huge brown teddy 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTXcujvmpz
bear. I looked at it for a while until my mind clicked.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiGGqIWYy1o

"Teddy," I said, looking at Lee.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuA1TOGRGrc

"What?" Lee looked 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz1ExPqF1EU
really confused and I bet in her mind she was obviously thinking that I 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhWsPd3J6S4
was crazy. "You want a teddy bear? But you already have a stuffed 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7EEgIlJhCP
panda."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCDXuRHdqFN

"No, not that. Mr Teddy. The little teddy bear back at the hotel."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHvXDeuLhJs

"Ya? What's wrong with it?" Lee asked as she shrugged.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8qwLnfiAq

"Derrick's brother sent 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5js9bsoz9
it to us that day, remember?" I hit my head in frustration. "Gosh! I 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5O4FSHBJu
should have asked Derrick if he knew that his brother sent us that teddy1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkf6g4iKtL5
bear."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0s0YoALxut

"But why are you so concerned about it? It's just a teddy bear."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nWZUMtgvz

"Ya, sent by Derrick's evil brother. That has to count for something, right?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvCbwGTAl7

"I don't get it though."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxBJahs1VLJ
Lee shook her head as she stared at the toys on display. "Why are you 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4pXT3L8u2
so concerned about that small teddy?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPKbJaCt62N

"That small teddy might hold the one thing we are looking for."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28Qqyyjnoo

***1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zu1HvbFfa

Zoey's P.O.V1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIzRf8BOaEq

"I'm tired of hearing the same thing over and over again," I said as I rubbed my forehead in frustration.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZLGJihGyE

"You know I'm not going to quit, Zoey," said Christine as she looked at me with a stern look.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpA1wm4XkEK

"Look, this has hurt and disturbed me a lot. And when I need someone to talk to, you're not supporting me at all."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE4PY6oMWzm

"Because I know you're wrong. And you're treating Sam so unfairly."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNiHR61lxBC

"How am I treating her unfairly?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXP74uX7Fv

"You moved out of the 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVDWTCmyPl
room, taking some of your belongings with you. I know you're upset with 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVSLyE9Gxmm
Sam, but doing that was not right. You're acting as if she is some kind 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbagkD28A0E
of alien or something."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZuqo0l1K8

I tilted my head to the side. "Well, if you put it that way, calling her an alien isn't that bad."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUpKJg90FoH

In a quick flash, a 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjk96EMeEYo
pillow landed on the side of my face with so much force, that I fell to 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb02HYreaJW
the side on the bed. I quickly sat up and held my cheek.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDTvrkA7T5x

"Christine!" I exclaimed. I was shocked that she did that.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVBa8oSq2el

"Do you want more of 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCh5flbnXJ
this pillow or should I get a hammer instead?" Christine asked 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGFFSMGemc
threateningly as she held up her pillow, ready to strike at me again.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQh53u1ujQ

"Never mind. I shouldn't have said that."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZrVPySULL

"You got that right." 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHE3VGuZ2OU
Christine put the pillow away. "I know Sam hurt you a lot, but you won't1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsgVUFC1zHg
ignore her like you're doing forever."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuvIrfTthYO

"Don't worry, forever will be here any moment now." I said ironically as I looked at the door.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCWYKY1GFDz

"You know that sooner or later you will need her. And besides, she is always going to be around whether you like it or not."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOjB4H2Lm1k

"Ya. You don't have to remind me since we're all in a group together."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhUHF1fXwI

Christine carefully looked at me and stood up from the bed, walking towards the window.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUs3DLnDoC

"It's normal for someone1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJ3EupWTpc
to get hurt by the ones they love and you aren't the first nor the last1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH2scqD3auj
to experience such, Zoey," said Christine as she looked at me. "You 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLKOFxT2WT
just need time to heal. You'll be back to your normal self and later on,1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlrfosRZl5
you will be laughing at all this with Sam. One thing's for sure, you 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktGU29bAvd
and Sam are best friends. And nothing will ever change that."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfdbIgKecFw

I always hated such kind1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡelpoERGSrQ
of talk. And coming from Christine, it just made me want to cry. Which I1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNPrJ7PUoB
didn't want to do. So what if I was still mad at Sam? I knew for a fact1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhyVeyj9XAi
that I wasn't going to ignore Sam for long. And as much as I wanted to,1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgwRopdXJnN
I couldn't live without Sam. She's been my best friend for as long as I1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAMUjhfYFs
could remember and I'm used with her being around. Without her, I'm 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyX0FfJYAAL
nothing.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRosRW34kQ

I've never told anyone 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0kDmZP2p0
this before, but I've always considered Sam as my better half. Not in a 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlNxOIwabl
couple kind of thing (which is kind of gross by the way), but more like a1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXdUEmfIXfG
sister kind of thing. I am one person who is always prone to getting 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBFrXPu03u
into trouble and Sam has always been the one to get me out of it. If it 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVuzDpN4XZT
wasn't for Sam, I would have been a high school drop out or worse. I 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8E78JX3oE
also wouldn't find myself as a famous singer in a pop group right now.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXFx9QOk57

I am Yin and she is 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomaSkNaPwM
Yang, balancing my life and hers. But mostly mine. I fell we are the 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2UrzFDp10
perfect harmony when we are together even though I am not as perfect as 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6ejWTwJld
she is. Maybe that's why I consider myself as Yin, the dark side and Sam1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1w80EtATo4
the bright side. You see what I mean, right?1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wxczZsKAX

And now when I needed 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3AZMLOnmE
her the most, I was stuck with no one to turn to. I couldn't open up to 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCSgZ4f0z5F
her now and tell her what's going on in my life. I've gotten myself into1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeK5C1JBhCQ
big trouble this time around and there was no way of turning back or 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrs9X6JHEI
getting anyone involved to help. Not when you know you're involved in a 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhnJ5W20jQI
serious situation with a very dangerous person.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQEtF2ZrIG

It all begun when I went1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFlkhxUkmJG
to Paris with G-Dragon, TOP and the other Toxins, excluding Sam. How I 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0TbYci4MB
wish she had come along with me that day. Maybe I wasn't going to be in 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJ76sJ81Gm
this mess.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8x0tt8tUd6

We were having so much 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQabKKtu9ne
fun that night. We went for the Chanel fashion show as planned and it 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSU2sOwWPp
was fun looking at the latest fashion being worn and showcased on the 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJ1YP2qB9o
runway. At that time I felt on top of the world with what had happened 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ00028Au0RA
between G-Dragon and I at the Eiffle Tower. And I was so happy and 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrpXyjfDwb9
pretty much oblivious that nothing could ever go wrong. But sadly, 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRGARe3fGB3
things did go wrong.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqs2yMoXwq

As we were watching the 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx6JNKe5IUW
models, I was seated next to someone whom I hadn't really took notice 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgy8KqxPNUm
for a while since the fashion show started until he turned to look at me1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhIBgIMLnTq
and said hi. He introduced himself as Jehan. He told me he was French.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9AllTrjdgZ

When I looked at him, he1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0AkoDkjdwK
seemed like a really nice guy. He was also very handsome. He recognised1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡehasLykgsM
me as one of the Toxins and said he was a huge fan. We talked for a 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnqmWGv0A0w
while during the show and for a moment there, we seemed to be getting 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHuOKFfUp6J
along just fine. I also introduced him to the others. It was after the 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqeNOpQtvgj
fashion show that I realised I was dead wrong about him.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLlr6V63Q6M

After the show when 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJNGAdQLBL
everyone was busy finding themselves among groups and indulging into 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy46udBD2t6
some random conversation, Jehan, said that he wanted to talk to me in 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNgVPec2PP
private. I didn't like the idea of leaving the others while I went out 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeVSWU0pkBP
with someone I barely even knew. But he did say it was only going to 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUDI6grX9ux
take a few minutes.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXedSUp1UfL

I didn't find anything 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5biwjyOGXI
wrong with it and I agreed to go out with him for a while. Besides, I 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS81VTx7UFV
was getting too much attention and going out looked like a good idea at 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2l4LIXJeNd
the time. Without telling G-Dragon who was with TOP and the others 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpWD2za0Bm
talking to some famous fashion designers, I knew they wouldn't miss me 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31LU2jJhFv
too much.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwIXSrQJXhp

Jehan led the way out 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSVY3F22EHK
and we found ourselves outside. It was lovely and the night was cool as 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl5lk7tOe52
we took a walk around a small garden outside the building. There were a 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJVCfD8qg3
few people outside, some near the fountain. At least there was an 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwr9SPkoN3q
assurance that if anything were to go wrong, there were witnesses. With 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIiVyegKOVN
that I felt a little safe.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwQ8jy5cHN

The two of us soon found1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxot21Bkpsr
ourselves indulged in some conversation. Before I knew it, we were all 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTUCEaicnve
alone in the garden and that's when Jehan took the opportunity to 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrYe9qYvMNT
threaten me. It was something I hadn't told anyone about because what 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSKF5t2vB8z
happened frightened me. And coming from a person like Jehan, you could 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡglMSOVJKEE
doubt that such a guy like him would ever do such a thing. Yet alone on a1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLdPzktHGIV
lady. He said if I didn't do whatever he said, he wouldn't hesitate to 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2oAbgRIcLL
hunt me down and kill me. I believed his threats because he was pointing1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKces9TjhA0
a gun at me and his face went from sweet and kind to dangerous and 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Gn6sTgLK1
menacing.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgb77vWkg7

He gave me something for1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmeee8al9v
me to keep safe and not to let anyone know about it. He said he would 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGkXtb2ISkh
follow me to Korea and get it. He was the same person I had met at the 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbdFToJNHh1
café and when I gave him the item back, he said there was more that had 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ79lTSVQGk5
to be done. When I asked what he meant, he didn't say anything. All he 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTwkOhzVNDA
said was that something was going to be sent to me back at the hotel in 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbSn1srlqG
the name of The Toxins. That's how the teddy bear came in.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66RvgkgBEs

Whatever he sent me that1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTtGqQNdHTh
teddy bear for, I have no idea. And when I talked to him about what I 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7HfclBX8h6
should do with it yesterday, he said he would meet with me and give me 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj9680wa1ig
further instructions. And I couldn't meet up with him because of what 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8YMetZTHNZ
happened yesterday.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8tcL2QJBx

I had never been in this1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXRqKUsOrpL
situation before and all I wanted was for all this to be over. But how?1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3UwTnICLJ
Unless I come up with a plan, I was going to be threatened for the rest1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYELGNrvt45
of my life and that's how I didn't want my life to be. I'm Zoey for 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAtoH5XmnRY
crying out loud. I had to do something.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZWdFpzNfd

My phone rang bringing 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJQbMRQ913
me back from my thoughts. Christine who was looking out the window, 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhPawMHN8N
turned to look at me. I went to looking at the phone laying right beside1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1gTc9zBSK
me. When I saw that Jehan was calling, I froze.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXLq1HFlC1

"Aren't you going to answer that?" Christine asked, as I delayed to pick up the call.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJEprrkMkoA

"I...uh, ya, I will," I said as I picked up the phone and answered the call. I could already feel myself starting to sweat.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs4o4DzAsH6

"Hello?" I answered. I almost gave out a croak when I spoke.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9OtIwDAJd

"Nice to hear that you're still answering my calls. Shows that you're cooperating."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ096AmmawmZ

I would have told him to1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4x0TEbzo8
mind his own beeswax but I couldn't with Christine in the room staring 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwrUkr8Ch3
at me like an eagle. Was she observing me? I couldn't tell.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsZj0XEA8A

"I'm great and you?" I said over the phone with a smile. Christine ignored me and went back to looking at the window.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZIV8n7gxbN

"Looks like you aren't 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5r2J1jWork
alone," said Jehan. I could hear in his voice that he wanted to chuckle.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWODy8eW2OH
"You wouldn't have answered so nicely like you rarely do."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4a8xU8O2TL

"May I help you with anything?" I asked as nicely as I could. He was already getting on my nerves.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZwZj5J57a

"Relax, my little tigress. I could tell I'm getting on your nerves and that won't be good for you now, would it?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwhI8PqXUQF

"Just get to the point, 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZT5D3esru6
will you?" I snapped, losing my cool. Christine turned to look at me. I 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFs94HshLwa
smiled as best as I could that I was afraid my face would tear.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJts6QEW0xV

"I want us to meet, today," said Jehan. There was a touch of coldness to his voice and that sent chills down my spine.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3M2s6nYqBx

"Today? Are you serious?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnnlKNgw5sY

"You know that I am. We meet today."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ33sbaRW40J

"But where?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrTqfDOknW6

"At the mall."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡroMhYGmoUd

For a moment I almost 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJ9fVHVquF
burst out laughing, but I held my mouth. I wondered why he would want to1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPLi3nTDsa
meet me at the mall. I was expecting the café again or some fancy 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1iOfflJGE
restaurant. To me, he didn't strike me as one person who would want to 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI0Th1UnIsO
hang out at the mall. That's what made it seem so funny to me.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ58k3Ahbpn1

"What's so funny?" Jehan1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ89vYmQPyOd
asked sternly. He knew I was almost about to burst out laughing. The 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0YuS1M79Y
tone of his voice almost did the trick but I still took a hold of 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2DEE7Mf2M
myself.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99ie8Ox3Sp

"Nothing, I wanted to sneeze but held it. That's all."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc9B33tkGQE

"You better be telling the truth or else I will blow your brains out."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrygCJ9sYP

If he thought saying 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBw8xPtwVj2
that would get me scared, it didn't. I pulled the phone far away from me1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCu2PtDEdV
and laughed quietly. Then I put the phone back to my ear.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXn8UFUfQUi

"I don't think I would be able to meet you," I said, choosing my words carefully in front of Christine.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPJPcZgo1n

"I don't care. You're meeting with me whether you like it or not."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2R89OVJLrM

"Mmm. Even if I wanted to, I don't know how I'm going to get there."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRyLsbDAHKZ

"A car will be waiting to take you within fifteen minutes. You better get ready. And don't forget the teddy."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJA9qJjxXu

"Ya, sure."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35bjRuJ5CI

Jehan didn't say 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKCQ3W2Gjv
anything more and cut the call. He was so rude. Bossing me around just 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdR8L4CZyR
because he could do whatever he wants with a gun pointed to my head. 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVCRmj11OK
Typical.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5P8LL1qV36

"Who was that?" Christine asked, looking at me.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmkJabpiNGA

"Oh, it was Seungri," I lied. "He wanted to see if I was free right now so that the two of us could hang out."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8f0lmNUWBV

"Seriously?" Christine looked surprised. "Why would Seungri call you just to hang out?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEo5gW09Hsa

"Well, he wanted to talk to me about Sam. That's all."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8MeEbv6aB8

"And you didn't refuse?" Christine had her arms folded and looking at me with doubt.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVbd8JRVenA

"Why? You think I would?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwJ4PJVxUX

"Ya. The Zoey I know would refuse."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKsYjJVIhN

"He's just taking me to some fancy place. I couldn't refuse."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIucqUYUM9W

"Ya, you always like the fancy stuff." Christine rolled her eyes as she looked up at the ceiling.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSBwVVDWsVM

"Whatever happened to that teddy bear?" I asked, changing the topic.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYAaSUsCnQD

"You mean the teddy bear you hate so much?" Christine came closer and sat down on the other side of her bed.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKw7Xw0hNP

"That one. Where is it?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0rWPboPvKS

"Why are you even asking?" Christine shrugged her shoulders.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡleXKItrw3R

"I just want to ask if it's still around. That's all. I hadn't seen it ever since we went bowling that other day."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEmCLCKjlyU

Christine looked over at Lee's bed across from her's.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3jMYpkbrZo

"I saw it on the bed yesterday. I don't know where she could have put it."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhp2lpKaN5w

"Oh. Okay," I said, as I stood up with my eyes surveying Lee's bed. "I better get ready to meet Seungri, then."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoIBlxZsSqI

"Alright," said Christine as she also stood up. "I need to use the bathroom."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp5uWyfofnT

Christine went past me to the bathroom and closed the door behind her, locking it.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmRMqt3uhaQ

I quietly went over to 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwz4WzS0Wda
Lee's bed. Her bed was well spread and pillows well placed. I couldn't 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLyMNmpvMh5
see the teddy anywhere. I had to act fast or else Christine will be back1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT47HiZHrPd
soon.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNva5SF9YC

I came to the drawer 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9EfWJCADeP
next to the bed and checked them, being careful enough not to make a 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNrtdvEZx8G
sound. Nothing. I almost started to panic. Where was the teddy?1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvLCn5Dy97

I looked at her bed and 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbugfn2P4E0
decided to check under the pillows. When I lifted one of them, there 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9sjO7i6Z3
laid the teddy bear still in his tiny suit.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5dSnklimI

"There you are," I said softly as I took the teddy. "I think it's now time for you to leave once and for all."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZoMj0lZmd2

I heard the tap in the 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡotoAFX8e7V
bathroom running. Christine was bound to be back in the room any second 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeOrHM7mg6y
now. I quickly put the pillow back neatly and then tiptoed quickly out 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiAOBlTBF7R
of the room with the teddy in my other hand. When I reached the door, I 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF2SsYsmPlm
quietly opened it and closed it behind me.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWogYyApaxf

***1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgg8nWXQtHK

Sam's P.O.V1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfip73CsKJB

"Do you really think 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6DNgLQX8N3
that teddy carries something that will help us figure out what's going 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf50rFMSKiH
on?" Lee asked as she took a sip of her smoothie, looking at me.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrxhDPt7ojc

"Definitely," I said as I got a french fry, dipped it in sauce and put it in my mouth.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfwgik6wj4o

"Okay, so far, Derrick has described his brother as a very dangerous guy. Is he some sort of criminal or something?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxR14vTiVH

"For him to threaten Zoey, he must be. But if he really is a criminal, then what sort of crime does he do?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrGsDOxO7r

"I hope it's not drugs."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwCxyiFNf9

"I hope not too." I shook my head at that terrible thought.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPfMHGW6hR

"What of gun trafficking?" Lee asked as she held her smoothie cup in midair.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhywiNPyGV

"No way." I asked as I drank from my smoothie.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTwZhIh0lL

"So, what should we do with that teddy bear?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYa7pPkMMEv

"Keep it away from her. Whatever that thing has, we have to know before she takes it away."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6xW6DLyDUN

"I wonder why she never kept it for herself. I mean, if she is being threatened, her life will depend on that teddy, right?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKObz7bCixe

"True." I nodded my head. "I bet she pretended to hate the teddy so that we don't get suspicious of anything."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgGODZfz1eC

"She did a pretty good job on that one."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM8O3dRBo2R

"Ya. But she was overreacting. Who could reject such a cute teddy bear like that one?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCB86TUAJ2w

"Zoey."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj2QpTP4X0N

"Haha. Ya. I heard Zoey 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwH0LPCVJy
talking to Derrick's brother. They were supposed to meet yesterday but 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2G57ZcVLT
they couldn't because of our little fight."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd69ORZAkJt

"Mmm." Lee took a fry 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLli4XovBds
and dipped it in sauce as she looked deep in thought. "Don't you think 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvuerlINdpx
the two would try to meet today, no matter what?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPi0U3zNcu

I raised an eyebrow at 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHr1TgsPnf
her. Come to think of it, I was supposed to be keeping an eye on Zoey. 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFA7I2rkYM
But here I was, eating fries. I completely forgot.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfMWci40v2

"Shoot!" I said loudly 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDy2fJQOWpw
as I leaned my head back with my eyes closed. I bet everyone around me 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIF46KKZWnk
was wondering what was wrong with me since I was so loud. I hit my head 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFY4AXS3k9l
with my hand. "You're so right, Lee."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4p7dktZ6ge

"About what?" Lee asked.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9cS3COiYs0

"About Zoey meeting him today. I should have been more aware."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPMA23Sgex0

"But do you think they would? I was just suggesting."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMeNrXXFlP8

"But today might be the 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD5W9laZA7D
perfect time for them to meet. We are here, the boys are busy playing 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQmAMZPNCrj
video games and Zoey might find a way to dodge Christine to go out."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj9YRXKZJtR

"Hopefully not. If she is going to meet him today, then she might take the teddy with her."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCCU3Mip1dl

My heart rate quickened 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8CuZVEemDl
at the thought of Zoey meeting Derrick's brother. I was scared. What if 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ40gi8ew4f9
she sees him today and things don't go well this time around?1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOnnYYCjN1C

"If I were you, I would give Zoey a call," said Lee. She obviously saw the worried look on my face.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPiK5r1oZch

"No, you do it," I said shaking my head. "She isn't going to answer my call."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSNQUdlD9kv

"Oh, yeah," said Lee as she took out her phone from her handbag and called Zoey.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQLlvQahMC

"She isn't picking up," said Lee as she looked at her phone. "She must have switched her phone off."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡad3m3kDFTV

"She must have gone to see him. Call Christine and ask about Zoey."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoDjaY8yPA

Lee went back to her phone and immediately called Christine. Christine picked up immediately.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpl9msZw2F

"Hey, Christine," said Lee as she looked over at me and I watched her intently. "I wanted to ask if Zoey is with you."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡagjbUfpB0W

There was a pause as Lee listened to Christine over the phone. Lee's face changed completely.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5QuwcKHyYu

"Alright, thanks, 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0J9Bz0awYR
Christine," said Lee as she cut the call and looked at me. "Zoey had 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMYbxF8NWN
left the hotel a few minutes ago. Christine says she went out with 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXG0hzdbOS
Seungri."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGO8QRxFVF

I raised an eyebrow. "Seungri? Why would Seungri meet with Zoey? I bet she lied."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKnyAr29lJ

"Of course she did. She has obviously gone to meet with this guy."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ZCP4M7JkZ

"Did Christine say where she had gone?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfcX0AbUedM

"No. Zoey wasn't specific. All Christine said was that she and Seungri were going to some fancy place."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZi3X8URwj

I suddenly decided to get my phone from my purse and called Seungri. He answered the call immediately.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdF11fNwj4P

"Hey, BK," he said so enthusiastically over the phone. "How are you?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5JR9DkvNyw

"I'm fine, Seungri, thanks," I said, immediately jumping to the point. "Where are you?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2uL3ZaJwvN

"I'm in my car heading to GD's. Is there anything I could do for you?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCyoy4EuUPB

"Uh, no, nothing. Was just asking. Are you alone?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡguygdHyEbf

"Yes, I am." I could 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMvUq3sALND
already imagine a smile on his face and I had to get ready for a 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMbMQNFgtk
ridiculous question to follow. "Why? You think I'm with someone? A woman1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpjanhkmsk8
perhaps?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbCK1PPGww

I rolled my eyes and as 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzizGxD9L1l
much as I wanted to remain stoic and not laugh, I did. I quickly tried 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIL7r3r7rX
to cover it up, but Seungri also heard it and chuckled. Lee looked at me1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGEP05Chem
with an eyebrow raised as I laughed out loud this time around.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBzcvTrtRR

"What makes you think that?" I asked after recovering from my laugh.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpOcu5hRN2

"For you to call, I'm guessing you must have been thinking of me and tried to see what I'm up to."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6cRqM97nK6

I bit my lower lip and 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQEDya46ANX
shook my head. If only he knew why I called. But I had to admit, he was 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjGtWxWTr3
really making me laugh even when I didn't want to.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSoMeUXzdL8

"It's really nothing, Seungri. I just wanted to say hi."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzXZOPcgWGk

"Well, if you say so." I knew he wasn't buying it. "Where are you?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKqGTs3stk

"I'm at the mall with Lee."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfE4Y2266Z

"Okay, you have fun now. You will need it."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGM7G4BvsD1

"Bye."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHGSxx444wk

"Bye, my little kitty."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBApNpXiD2J

"Well, that was some conversation," said Lee as I put my phone away.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ63bQogYgCQ

"Ya, it was," I said still with a smile on my face.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmg9XNvM9xa

"So, he isn't with Zoey?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMHx5k02i15

"Nope. And he isn't 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9hYZ22H8ZX
going to some fancy place either." I paused as the smile on my face 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLOV5M34lYP
disappeared. "He's gone to see G-Dragon."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbuYn95Z3Zu

"Oh." Lee took her smoothie and sucked on the straw. "Umm, what are we going to do now? We have to know where Zoey is."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz1xeHjQhXr

"You're right," I said. "But where can we even start to look? This time, I'm blank."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdiqoggltsH

"Maybe they are going to meet at the café again."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNiGfPlCg6

I shook my head. "I highly doubt it. Even if we were to guess where they could meet, it would probably be too late."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Cuv5DgT0l

Lee sighed as she folded her arms. "Well, this has turned out to be such a bust."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPu8JjCJAQ4

"Tell me about it." I 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66Z9OSp2NO
put my elbows on the table and held my head in my hands. "I shouldn't 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvopsIEQrqs
have allowed this to happen. I shouldn't have been so absent minded."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzUagEZcz7

"Don't beat yourself up, Sam," said Lee. "Maybe it's time we told Zoey what we already know."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR0HTIzUE13

I nodded. We were now caught in a dead end and maybe it was time we involved the others too.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡguCQ6HAjGG

After we were done with 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0oyi7oxc7l
lunch, we paid for the meal, carried our shopping bags with us and with 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMa7kS46bH
our body guards following behind, we headed out of the mall.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTMnr5uXZj

As soon as we walked out1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbzPOwv0eEw
through the main entrance, a fancy looking red Ferrari was parked right1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJO1bhEOwU
in front of us in the parking lot. Just as we were about to bypass the 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ07ayd8rzR
car, the door to the driver's seat flew open and a man in a fancy 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2H31FzaNs8
looking black suit stepped out.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuaFylUDj1G

Time seemed to have 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0FbJThSpsS
stopped when I looked at the man from the corner of my eye. He was tall 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr21bTCO95U
and handsome with a strong jaw and black shiny hair which was combed 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoT26N2M9cg
back. He had a pair of sunglasses on and I couldn't help but feel 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4gvcCh6K6a
something familiar about him.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡitGMPwBOVO

Just as I was about to 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqrEcIAZvM
focus ahead, the man removed his shades and I fully turned to look at 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbkRfV4mub
him. My mouth almost dropped and I couldn't believe what I was seeing.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtKrN73BKMu

I almost tripped and 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNiJPGA3GmN
fell over on the road but I was quick to gather myself. Lee looked at me1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVx8GcWSva
with concern because even the guards almost came to my rescue to stop 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVw04ljAq0M
me from falling.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRk4PZr1qAN

"Are you okay, Sam?" Lee asked as she looked at me. "You almost fell."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡayC3fZqtjf

I didn't say a word as I1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPutSFxujRE
looked behind me where the Ferrari was packed and I noticed the man go 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDynEZiZ0L
inside the mall. I turned to look at Lee.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwbpH0ncLZ

"We need to go back, Lee," I said.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmjp5uAWC4J

"But why? You're scaring me Sam. It's look like you have seen a ghost."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxrePb0tI2l

"Trust me, Lee. We need to go back. We have to put these bags away first."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYD21R9Rna

"May I please know what's going on with you?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs51MIqncos

"I know where Zoey and Derrick's brother are going to meet. They will be meeting here. At the mall."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡED6rj1Y10w

Narrator's P.O.V1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVSVejmVg9a

Seungri came into G-Dragon's apartment and found TOP, Taeyang and G-Dragon, who was still in his pyjamas, in the living room.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3vMS1t6tHi

"Hey guys, am here," 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvapuyQG9V8
annouced Seungri as he sat down on the couch next to Taeyang. "You guys 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNRaeX3SjhT
look downcast as though someone's just died."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHevsVlYXaf

"Ji Yong still doesn't want to talk things out with Sam," said TOP.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7eU33vktVc

"This is getting real 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlAl5kvnBvj
frustrating, guys," said G-Dragon who was hugging a couch pillow close 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk4aGJhzclT
to him and looking down on the floor. "Now isn't the time to talk with 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLEOTpVk4l
her or with anyone of you."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJnjU0yNPsX

"No, I think now is the 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhDreuY4dP7
time to solve things with her," said Taeyang. "We will be working on the1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYSwv7LnGTY
music video soon and we can't do this if you two aren't on good terms."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiVNVKUJ1UH

"And let's not forget, Zoey," said Seungri.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPdofJPBkM

"Zoey is a whole lot tougher to talk to," said G-Dragon. "I already did my part and told her the truth."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2KHiT2vRdn

"Well, you shouldn't have led her on if you knew you had feelings for Sam," said Taeyang.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8eOd4MUST8

"Let's not forget, Daesung also has feelings for her," said TOP.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCP0vVo1CJe

"And me," said Seungri with a corky smile on his face.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyc3bdo1oaw

"Oh, stop joking around, Seungri," said G-Dragon, with a frown on his face.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq9JJB4UhO0

"For real," said Seungri raising his hands in the air admitting to the truth. "I also like Sam."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3knNXKkav

The others rolled their 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMVg5gqsGyg
eyes at Seungri, obviously not taking him seriously. He usually jokes 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5BQk8S0F9
around and now wasn't the time for it.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUNzd75Sm5

"Look, I know leading Zoey on was a big mistake, but I'm more angry at Sam than at myself," said G-Dragon.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbV8eSysWhQ

"Why? Because Sam and Daesung kissed?" Seungri asked with an eyebrow raised.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcfIMsJzntX

G-Dragon didn't answer immediately. He looked like he was about to jump at Seungri and tear him apart.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZidhAZDtO7

"Well, maybe," said 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVyh1gPTAkm
G-Dragon. "The thing is, the day Zoey went missing, she and I had a talk1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBUDQE9rOmv
in the park about the same thing. She figured out that I liked her so 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZiwR0lDMK
she told me to break things up with Zoey."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYAaflg9oj

"And why didn't you do that sooner?" TOP asked.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIon07RB4OG

"When I saw Daesung and 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrAtwWdlL5
Sam so close the next day, I couldn't help it. I had a feeling they 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxAhLYbsXKf
kissed though I didn't see it for myself. That's what made me so mad."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnlaehB4RK

"And you still are," said Taeyang.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡip0knNyc3O

G-Dragon didn't answer 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgbkKZpb3te
as he looked down at his fingers, looking as if he was ready to bite 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyuBUaLmrAI
them out of anger. "Yes," he replied slowly.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITPg1WXbPK

"Oh, I get it now," said Seungri, as he looked up at the ceiling. "But I see no reason why Sam could be in the wrong here."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83cUTqXKLi

"What do you mean?" 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrW17bFgWSn
G-Dragon asked as he looked up at Seungri. "Sam didn't tell me anything 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhIIrvrOhb7
about Daesung and yet she told me not be with Zoey anymore."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67WigTPsmd

"She was just doing that1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ73ul2CGXEz
to protect Zoey because she figured out that you like her instead of 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6difaL6u9S
her best friend," said Taeyang. "And besides, we all heard your little 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0Scjzr7e6
argument. She and Daesung also talked and also agreed that they cannot 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWktPvs59Px
be together."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5nVcbBsQJ

"I still don't believe all that," said G-Dragon.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMYgO0ugjKG

"You better believe it, Ji Yong," came Daesung's voice by the door. "Sam never meant to hurt anyone. Not even you."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHDJ9Aiabw

All the four BigBang 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjsN9u1wKD
members in the living area, turned towards the door. Daesung stood there1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2scWTFZej
looking at them. The others were a little surprised that they hadn't 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYGssoKzTS
heard him come in.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4s3YlNUJH

"It's good you're here," said Seungri. "You also have a lot of explaining to do."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR98jHrgqX5

"No, he doesn't," said G-Dragon.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOyTsrHNWs

"Yes, I do," said Daesung. "All this has to be cleared up once and for all."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJwOd17Y1o

"True," said TOP. G-Dragon who sat beside him gave him an angry stare. TOP shrugged. "What?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeihmiH6fQ9

"I'm not going to stay 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiyaTOqrnq6
here and listen to this," said G-Dragon as he stood up from the couch. 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbjGc2RXl5
"If you need me, I'll be in my room."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOzfBI5dJx

"No wait, you have to hear me out," said Daesung.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBkNbwXlI1

"No, I don't."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqciSfNWrk

Before G-Dragon could 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkBVy7IWRLU
take a step in the direction of his room, TOP held his arm and pulled 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡebuZNOTxT5
him down. G-Dragon sat right back on the couch.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9gJqVcfkA

"You aren't going anyway," said TOP.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPxK9cA3BJ

"Come on, man, seriously!" G-Dragon complained.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYVyVkUPCv

"Let's hear what Daesung has to say, alright?" Taeyang suggested.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1kMK5a1ftd

G-Dragon folded his arms1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLUjLKhZFIw
and looked at the others like an angry child who was told to do 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2WZD9lIAT
something that he didn't want to do. He finally rolled his eyes and 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZM2XyEUtp
stared at the ceiling.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEQXcptzq5

"Fine," he said. Then he looked at Daesung. "Go ahead."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqWxYtzo8w9

Daesung came into the 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgA5ey9Ey9K
living area and didn't take a seat. He stood there in front of the TV 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUECBLXJv2w
for everyone to get his attention. His eyes locked with G-Dragon's.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdjHsrC1MZu

"Look, I know you're 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6G6dee4lJG
probably mad and want to kill me right now," started Daesung. "But first1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyVLOu535zT
thing's first, I had no idea that you had something for Sam and she 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMnf9Bj8kO
never told me anything either."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTpVVBIrP0

"Do you really like her?" G-Dragon asked, looking at Daesung with so much intent.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1YoEJj7ZoP

"Yes, I won't deny it. I thought she and I might make our relationship work, but she didn't think that way."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9VCBxWicrB

"Why?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb5cD8CVlZt

"She just felt like it 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4321zKYI5Q
wasn't going to work. That's what she told me. She wasn't going to stay 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQWqjA468i
here for long. And judging by that, she doesn't look like one who thinks1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRW3WHWKJ8M
long distance relationships will ever work out."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJcvEyQYtn

"Then, why did you kiss her?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6Xz7h8xpd

"Because I know I'll 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDLTmU93E1
never get a chance to do so. Sam is a great person and calling her great1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBJvNUVTFO
is an understatement because she is way beyond that. And I see 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlX893ZKzP
something in her that I've never seen in any other girl before. I could 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGJCp8uwga
tell you also see it in her too. She is also one person who wouldn't 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuS85Ze4eJz
want to hurt anyone either.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡllLlm3se2d

"Maybe that's why she 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GKQSStmil
didn't want anything to do with me either because she knew you would 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUyzUHygA4S
also get hurt. But unfortunately, you already had a hunch about our kiss1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi55BXb9vCX
and I could see that it really hurt you a lot."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkcp8GS0Xoc

"Ya, it did," said G-Dragon as he looked somewhere else, his mind on Sam.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6taySCgVs

"Now, are you going to talk to her?" Daesung asked.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNwiPSQawN

"What?" G-Dragon turned to look back at Daesung with a confused look on his face.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf0pxj7K7q0

"Aren't you going to talk to Sam?" Daesung asked again. "All this wasn't entirely her fault."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvkOfVqKbP

"I know."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgPX4LbfW0p

"So, you will talk to her, then?" TOP asked.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUcsyPOJav

"I'll think about it."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlp7RYQ2ZpZ

"No, no, no!" Seungri 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOeoOyVfTN
waved his finger at G-Dragon. "That's it! You're always stubborn and you1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0LzK7F5AS
want things to be done your way. Go and take a shower. We're going to 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9aADvkL0H2
the mall."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrcWLVmPpfE

Everyone turned to look at Seungri and wondered if he had hit his head or something.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfMRu2vLNre

"Huh?" Taeyang shook his head, trying to understand if he had heard right. "Did you just say the mall?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrlYXIcMwqW

"Ya," said Seungri, 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMU1vqApdqL
shaking his head. "We're going to the mall. Sam is there and I think 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQWwBkuDD7l
this will be a good time for the two of them to talk."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzEhPfaIjQn

"No way! I'm not going to the mall," said G-Dragon. "What am I going to say? I need more time to think about it."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE26BLqIAe7

"There is no time to 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmgKqZDG48z
think about it," said TOP. "I'm not going to allow you to keep on doing 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjpS9CQfORE
this to Sam. It's not right at all."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXypA7gBEA9

"It's best you go, GD," said Daesung. "And we are all going with you so that you have no reason to escape."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgojBWI7en

"No way," said G-Dragon. "You will have to force me into the shower if I'm leaving for the mall."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkjQuGArJKx

"We're your best 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZzGDqsJJn
friends, so, no hard feelings," said Taeyang with a smirk on his face. 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4sIGLHLNTS
He addressed the others, "guys, let's take him to the shower."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7I4r3zb5i

"Wait! What!" G-Dragon looked horrified as the others came and quickly surrounded him. And there was no way of trying to escape.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡofDEXIKqEc

I came out of the black 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDmPufGsqB
Mercedes as it stopped directly in front of the mall. I quickly put my 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLN2Jl3pZ3T
shades on as I walked towards the entrance and I heard screams behind 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZocQWkXmS
me. I smiled at the reaction and turned around to see a group of young 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLr0qLfsQtO
teenagers, obviously having a fun time at the mall, giggling and waving 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtW83tIFvGY
at me. I smiled and waved back and they screamed even more. I continued 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZzSt5PWWsd
on my way into the mall, always liking the feeling of being recognized 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgaygk1itd

I pulled out my phone from my purse as I went on the escalator and called Jehan.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5fxWUv2suZ

"Okay."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOP6YUAlA0

I sighed in irritation. "I'm not that dumb not to bring it."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjq50wwTqJ

instructed. "And for the record, I'm not blonde. I'm actually a whole 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8xxUXs1uSn
lot smarter than you think."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ux5v2zqJJ

"Just get over here," said Jehan, also sounding irritated and cutting the call.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9sALi2Huwq

"Mr Grumpy is such a 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVMCo6Bt5u
pain in the butt," I muttered as I put my phone away and looked around 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkohRsWetP
for the Rolex store. It didn't take too long to find it.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2bJpYOsYT

When I went into the 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhkuHU2y3Qx
fancy looking store showcasing fancy looking watches, I found Jehan by 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRsX46iCTu
the counter, looking down at watches through the glass case.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyPPd8evjFu

I stood right beside him and looked down at the watches.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDzJKFYMI2L

"If I were you, I would go for that one," I said as I pointed at one of the watches.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuEHMcsKWwo

"I don't need your opinion with anything, Zoey," said Jehan, his emerald green eyes looking at me.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8uMFSIBCR

I shivered. Despite his 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZH0of3Uu84
good looks, he had a stare in his eyes that could make you drop dead in 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFE3gnZWKxq
seconds. I wondered why such a handsome man like him, could be so hard 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJby8CtCge
to the core. As much as it was scary, he gave me butterflies in my 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA6fYkrxXyF
stomach. Which to me is totally creepy.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY646hOcZYZ

"Now, that you're here," said Jehan, as he turned to fully look at me. "I can now get what I want."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUzmUEftqJw

"May I ask why you sent this teddy bear to me?" I asked.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡESN8mEbJis

"Why do you need to 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWkb2BVRQa
know?" Jehan asked as he stepped closer. He was too close that I could 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSgw9duNKE
feel his breath on me. I almost trembled by his close presence.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqGn1Q4cs9

"Well, I need to know 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFcY3NR0Nbr
what you're up to, don't you think?" I asked, standing my ground. Him 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡISgcv3iKzu
being so close to me almost made my legs turn to jelly.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCOi8HFpVs

"And tell me, why should1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxD85dyJeFT
I tell you?" He leaned in closer. This time he spoke so softly that my 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1HybE7UPK
heart fluttered. With that deep husky voice of his and his French 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD7dDdZGbcL
accent, I was completely drawn to him. And not to mention his musky 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4PmmFlGb7
cologne, yum. It was just delicious.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNT2lEwafFb

"I...eh..." I looked him1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7W8ytzu9r
in the eye and tried to focus but I couldn't. I cleared my throat. 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBI2h9xi39t
"It's not fair. First, I came with that box from Paris. And then you 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2FNzkv1gl
sent me a teddy which is highly unusual given that you don't look like 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNS4NLggUlP
the kind who would send such a thing."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZseNmKOKv

"Oh, really?" Jehan 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUBRoURvbpE
raised his eyebrow at me. I had to admit, he looked kind of hot when he 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPJFh5IcdS
did so. "What makes you think I couldn't send such a cute teddy bear?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMAQGbf2GJf

"I don't know." I 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9PprMt0vPI
shrugged my shoulders. "You just don't seem like the guy who would. And 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDlEqxCRXv
it was kind of weird if you ask me. But answer my question. What are you1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCsVEdtP2Cy
up to?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz4Duua9shy

Jehan gave me a smile that made me blush that I had to look down on the floor so that he wouldn't notice.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4nkjkfEdn2

"Fine, I'll tell you," said Jehan. "Let's go and have a little something to eat, shall we? We can talk from there."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBduESjPk8

"Whoa! Wait a minute," I said as I backed away from him, a little surprised. "You're willing to tell me?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5gEPZC7MP6

"What's the matter with that?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxEapqFdUme

"I thought you would be hard to convince given that you're so mean."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYAcTDiuQS

"Don't test my patience,1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ReEHW6PxJ
Zoey," said Jehan, his voice getting restless. "Just because I want to 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDUoumPDY0K
tell you, doesn't mean you can take all this like a joke. Besides, I 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXaYAJ0nnwu
think you deserve to you know."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6WjbKpoVSC

"Well, yes, I do."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKlNxcLefg1

Jehan smirked. "Good. Follow me."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFHLKfCD18G

***1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkAkdh4pxT

Sam's P.O.V1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBU1wpYWw5n

I could see Zoey from 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlvp1fdYYAS
across the hall at the Rolex store. I was looking at clothes right next 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBpUV7pWjbX
to the huge window display so that I could have a clear view of Zoey and1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTwBXOO2iHJ
Derrick's brother. Lee was right behind me facing the opposite 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjciDWtNpzo
direction also pretending to be looking at clothes.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZikcHhArq

I was entirely grateful 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxhwecBzvd
that the body guards had kept an eye out for Zoey when she came here to 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2QYUGGn75f
the mall. They were the ones who told us that she had arrived and had 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfk6Qmkl5yy
followed her to the Rolex store. I was just glad that she hadn't noticed1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQYXMuWspL
them. We were close by looking for Derrick's brother when the guards 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPn1AszuVG
told us where Zoey was. We decided to go to the store opposite from 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRF7nFZttq4
where they were and keep an eye on them from now on.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Y5OVSuh6i

"The man is so handsome," said Lee as she looked out the window. "I still can't believe that he is a bad guy."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPdcPgLZ7Ed

"Believe me, he is," I said as I looked at a nice beige top on a hanger and then took a brief glance out the window.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbif41iGsW5

"But how did you know 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5qxG9xpb1r
that's Derrick's brother? I mean, you haven't seen him before and that 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPV47IAh5Vx
photo you showed me never revealed his face."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTQoKDP60O

"True. It's because he looks so much like Derrick."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡixY9BLLK28

Lee turned to look at me with her mouth wide open. "For real! Do you mean, like twins?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4iJvIIcTy

"Well, ya," I said as I 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQJPWX8I34
looked at Derrick's brother who was standing so close to Zoey through 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdsGO0TqCO
the window. "Maybe they are twins. They look so much alike. Except, 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGMOcaQ0FB
Derrick has blue eyes and short brown curly hair."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3L9WKDML0N

Lee turned to the window1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUuiSffDzl
and I could tell she was observing Derrick's brother. "If he looks like1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7SlR67HPj
that, I can easily picture how Derrick looks like."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjyTPg2WbP

"He's handsome too. Looks like it runs in the family."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJR6vJBGqev

"Tell me about it. Too bad their mindsets are completely different."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Owz2eb6JT

"Derrick did say he and his brother are completely different that they don't easily get along."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡswDfdnLdRG

"Figures," said Lee as she went back to looking at clothes. "I wonder what he wants that teddy bear for."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSwuYsWFq1

"I'm also wondering too," I said as I continued to be on high alert.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3r57RjfQ83

Then, Zoey and Derrick's brother were walking out of the store. I hit Lee on the shoulder and she looked out the window.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJy17x242o1

"Come on, let's go," I said and the two of us went out of the store.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlSbckYGg6K

We made sure to keep a 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYIGzqRKY7a
reasonable distance between Zoey and Derrick's brother as we followed 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ugkRqpOKX
them. Lucky for us, there were a lot of people around, so if either of 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY71m6hSSQM
the two ever had a chance to look behind them, they wouldn't actually 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhfidiw2ZJ
see us properly and we could easily pretend to walk away.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8sQEKOiil

They went down the 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7TMHji2o6L
escalators and we also followed. They reached the ground floor, took a 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN6VUtrImk6
corner and went into some fancy looking Chinese restaurant. We stood 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhM4tXaWXYb
outside waiting at a nearby store to see where they were going to sit.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkeik1bogZg

They were led by a 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW1VjNL4lzE
smartly dressed waiter to a table in the middle of the restaurant. 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9w8a5Dc3em
Derrick's brother acting like a gentleman, helped Zoey with her chair 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWPCd3285FU
and they were smiling at each other as though they were friends. I bet 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31Okl3lkrF
they did that just to look normal in front of everyone in the 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqu7xxgJZs5
restaurant.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0Tgi9CtXQ

"What are we going to do now?" Lee asked as she looked at me.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOpwIIQKB7p

"I don't know. We surely can't stay here forever. We need to get that teddy away from Derrick's brother," I said.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJbGH8vOor

"Why don't I just join them? In that way, I can ruin their plans if I'm around."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡloqvKCsnAl

"That sounds like a good idea, but won't he get suspicious?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDVUBe9RhM

"I doubt it. But we have to do something. I'm not going to let that teddy bear get away."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPyZ8mFQZN

"Me neither. But what to1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj2GdTnlmgD
do?" I tapped my chin with my index finger impatiently as I looked 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXcExpn4Xlf
through the restaurant's window at Zoey and Derrick's brother.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwfBOVSK50a

I felt my phone beep in my purse and I quickly removed it. Seungri was calling.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtSUM8znkLO

"Hey, Seungri, what's up?" I answered, turning away from the restaurant.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5scjElFui

"I wanted to ask, are you still at the mall?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4dzNf4FoL

My mind started working. "Yes, I am. What's wrong?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0PUvueYWl

"Nothing. I just wanted to ask. I'm heading there right now and I was hoping if I could join you."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfxP68gd20

Bingo! If Seungri could come here, he might just interrupt Zoey's meeting. And I knew just what to do.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxlua4HHG3

"Uh, ya, you can. How far are you from the mall?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0mJgZex1bx

"I'll be there in two minutes, I'm almost there."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWNW4au0xp

"Perfect. Call me when you get here." I cut the call.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDuYKBVacR

"Are you crazy?" Lee looked at me with a surprised look on her face. "Why do you want Seungri here?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQuUHRs8EE8

"Don't worry. Seungri 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCHitrM0LOi
will be perfect for the plan. I'm afraid Derrick's brother will get too 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBcdGEJEfi
suspicious if you go in there. Besides, Zoey knows you went out with me 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBlxP0Wkddb
and she will know something fishy is going on."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXph2L9Wz3

"Well, okay," said Lee as she went back to looking at the restaurant. "Let's just hope it will work."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhr31Ghw6J5

"I hope so too."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCyN15g2OQq

Zoey's P.O.V1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhiAAvkYvc

I looked at the menu and1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3uJuOg8oa
I realised that I wasn't so hungry. Maybe I was just too anxious to 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxFcCRsKB3T
figure out what Jehan's plans were. I looked at him as he sat across the1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFm2NJbaGCe
table, looking at the menu. He must have felt my eyes on him because he1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3bKOyooCwq
looked up at me.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTUV3PtXP98

"Aren't you going to order?" Jehan asked, as he went to looking back at the menu.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjScOF1VAnD

"No. I realise I'm not that hungry anymore," I said.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD546XIJN0p

"Why?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWReWPCGsoK

I put the menu aside and leaned forward on the table. That caught his attention. He looked at me with an eyebrow raised.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04AjOF7lIx

"I just want to know what you do. And by the looks of it, it's pretty serious."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr57XSQPxPH

"I'm glad you figured that out." Jehan gave me a mocking smile.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqEK9Rosp2b

I growled. "Stop that, will you?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6IZsLnxCG

"What?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGsrT8aKO6

"Mocking me. And just so you know, it's not funny."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2wDEUxFge

"I'll try not to next 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH9v0aWD2O2
time." He turned to the waiter who had been waiting for our order. Jehan1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48q6Hln7Gj
ordered the same meal for the both of us. The waiter left immediately.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwqadCmxX7T

"Now, are you going to tell me?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bNqXoAX6O

"Yes, I'll," said Jehan. "I figured you deserve to know. Only if you do one thing."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOAhbdgx0Fc

"Not tell anyone."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1XFHCYn0Vh

Jehan smiled widely this time around. "Exactly."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkqH6yXdm1m

"Okay." I was now attentive. "Spill."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9YJ8V1ph08

"I smuggle diamonds."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPC8QHZsUek

My eyes almost popped out of their sockets. That was sudden. I didn't expect him to be so direct.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9rOJ5H9Qc

"Surprised that I was direct?" Jehan asked as he looked at me giving me goosebumps.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uDz4dmgWf

"Well....ya," I leaned back on my chair still recovering from what he said. "I expected something different."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgBnGWRuyx

"Like what? Drugs or gun trafficking?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7sPUndB78F

"That's what a lot of bad guys are involved in nowadays. I wasn't expecting that you smuggle diamonds."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHvPro8tYY

The waiter came with our1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLG6cfMYts0
appetisers, Chinese dumplings. I have always liked dumplings. I got a 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡusfRsmbhYH
pair of chopsticks and put a dumpling in my mouth.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCPJ7GLOmtd

"Yes. I know it's a surprise, but that's what I do. I smuggle in diamonds from country to country."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwsxlfyUgtB

"But you don't look like the kind who would do such things."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jdDE9Xw7b

"Too bad, I am. And there is nothing you can do to change that."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6kUHFtX7T6

"Oh, don't worry about me," I said raising my hands in surrender. "I wasn't even going to try."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyhd8PkAvAw

"Good girl," said Jehan, as he smirked. His smirk made me blush and I quickly looked down at my food.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx1zILaOkHS

"So, the little teddy has diamonds in it?" I asked, putting another dumpling in my mouth.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPK89r2hfmp

"Yes, millions worth of tiny diamonds."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyvGMmcq3Te

"Is that why you're so rich?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWt1QvHeSe

"I was born in a rich family. We own a business but I did all this just to become more richer and more powerful."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpRhqjSIO4z

"That's being greedy, don't you think?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJJ6ayT9WZ

Jehan gave a little laugh. "That's the whole point. Power is everything."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjzxO0PTe0F

I gulped. He was giving 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVeCkXZZjnW
me that evil look of his again. I nodded my head and prayed that I would1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgSo1IWhdq

I was waiting by the 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEA4tJTbmHy
entrance when I saw Seungri's lamborgini park in the parking lot and 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSi9bK0smTL
another car park right next to it. My mouth dropped. Was that Taeyang's 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSSTmdIjud
car? What was he doing here?1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcVxp068nm

Seungri came out of the 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQHwIfUxCX
car and Daesung came out of the passenger's seat. Taeyang came out of 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrHH26BL40o
his car and TOP from the passenger's side. Surprisingly, G-Dragon came 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFjpRyGcw48
out of the back seat of Taeyang's car. I felt something in me break when1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3r98l0f5Lr
I saw G-Dragon and Daesung. The whole BigBang was here! This wasn't 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrXfSGbYep
what I was expecting.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQsUtbFI5CM

I trembled. What am I 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ825RxmUkbV
going to do now? I was only expecting Seungri here. This was just 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4IlujJgl7
fantastic! I had to think of something quick or else Zoey was going to 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBhV58uiAk
give Mr Teddy away.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68vlaRsqvb

"Hey, Sam," said Seungri as they came to the entrance. "Were you waiting for me?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLfw6YhmCzT

"I...eh..." I looked at Seungri, then at the others. What to do! What to do!1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZFM7VXy5u

"Sam, are you okay?" Taeyang asked. "You don't look at all happy to see us."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOwRDlN3Tk

"I, no....I," I didn't 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCAdakRGwXy
know what to say. Now that all five of them were here, this was going to1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh30d1k76c6
get a lot more complicated. What the hell was I going to do?1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXk93kyPsbf

"I was only expecting 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdAtV5p2X6y
Seungri here so I'm a little surprised," I answered as I looked at 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9r9CGgFaW7
Daesung and G-Dragon who stood there staring at me. It felt so weird 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5xAOaut8y
seeing the two of them together.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtY6xZF821R

"We could leave if you want us to," said G-Dragon, who looked more than happy to do so.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw7z01H6hsZ

"No, no one is going anywhere," said TOP.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UFxeXFYCw

"Sorry if we surprised you like this, Sam," said Daesung. "But, you and G-Dragon need to talk."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGuB2ud6RgN

"Talk?" I raised an eyebrow looking confused. When I looked at G-Dragon, it finally came to me. "Oh, I get it."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFaybnpeqW0

"So, will it be okay to leave you two alone?" Taeyang asked.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrdG9tpyaR

"Ummm, we can talk later," I said quickly turning to look at Taeyang. "Right now, I need your help."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsR0h7vvljT

"What's up?" Seungri and Daesung asked at the same time, both looking concerned.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVPDoP7RPd

"Come with me," I said 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIGDbLRHU6i
as I led the way into the mall, heading towards the Chinese restaurant. 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2N5Kc2tqKY
Next to the shop was a store where Lee was hiding so as to keep an eye 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCrWr3eVZW2
on Zoey and Derrick's brother.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfBFwRuiBsX

When we reached Lee, she turned around and her face went pale upon seeing the others.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqwdCR5vR6

"Okay, it looks like you really weren't looking forward to seeing us," said G-Dragon, looking irritated and folding his arms.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtRit4O8iZQ

"Hi, guys. You're 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ34SKFHCQ5j
right," said Lee. "Sam told me Seungri was coming here. She didn't 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5tJ9MxiERJ
mention that the whole crew would be coming too."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1gpIJV0LcD

"Trust me," I said as I looked at Lee. "I had no idea they were all coming."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZr9GiN4Lq

"But what's the emergency?" Taeyang asked.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMpCKe0d8z

I could feel Lee's eyes on me and I could tell she was scared of telling them the truth. So, I had to do the talking.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2aTJKDfnI0

"It's Zoey," I said. "Remember the guy she met at the café and who had also sent that teddy bear?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhsdPRn2Fn

that restaurant," I said, pointing at the Chinese restaurant. "Zoey is 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMloUoCHrXp
with someone and I'm betting it's the same guy."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXvmKmasvk

The five all turned to 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBtDhzl3I1o
look through the glass window of the restaurant and they easily spotted 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJ8g8pmbvC
Zoey and Derrick's brother. Lee nudged me on my side with her elbow and 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNStldtmWM
gave me a what-do-you-think-you're-doing look.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLfodQw0YE

"Wait, a minute," said TOP. "I've seen that guy before."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3QTizhwkrY

Lee and I turned our attention to TOP and asked at the same time, "you have?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDgKioLWI1L

"Ya, in Paris," answered TOP. "Don't you recognise him too, GD?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQ6AvcKG7m

"Yes, I do," said G-Dragon looking through the glass window. "We met him at the fashion show. I'm surprised why he is here."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxuPils1Hx

"We were also wondering 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSiSoUzH3Gp
too," I said. "Lee and I were planning to go in there and talk with 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCB7RSTjqc
them, but decided that I would rather not."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXzICj5kE4C

"Why?" Daesung asked.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsci4pqvjBh

"Well, Zoey seems to be 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRkdJSdoFAA
having a good time and I didn't want to bother her with my presence 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfXyloZxSEj
since we argued. But then again, I'm so curious about the guy she is 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9z0z5vMKqw
talking to. So I thought Seungri might help out."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0jy3IdcWk

"Aww, so sweet of you to think I could solve that out for you, my little kitty," said Seungri with a smile on his face.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0arEYaqicB

"Huh? Wait a minute," 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQbIZeESZmH
said G-Dragon, who had a confused look on his face. As he looked at 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfrHNC102u
Seungri. "I thought you always called Sam your panda."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08kFy2Z9CO

"Well, ya." Seungri shrugged. "She's my little kitty and my panda. Do you have a problem with that?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡORGWy50j2R

"It's a little strange for you to call her your little kitty because I call her that."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1PUTHnarjQ

Everyone turned to look 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMVxkLcCJhx
at G-Dragon. What was he saying? I was very surprised by all this. And 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhOtAGkVkY
my heart was pounding so hard in my chest. Wow. Was G-Dragon jealous or 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlzxXIKPOam
something? I couldn't help but feel flattered about it.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9DZkOASEeC

"Looks like someone is jealous," said TOP, with a mocking smile on his face.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0d2yB9krgz

Lee giggled. "Tell me about it."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEcfL2bO1S4

"Here you're now 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡutLBE0PSOD
claiming that you're the one who's supposed to call Sam your little 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Nn5fL61RU
kitty when you're still mad at her," said Taeyang.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhFQKINQG0f

"Can we not focus on that now and sort out the problem at hand?" G-Dragon asked avoiding our eyes.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy17I4yvpfS

"I'll talk with G-Dragon1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvLZegVCjQ
later," I said. I turned to look at the restaurant as I felt myself 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfvP2tG3DK4
blush. They were almost done with their main meal. I had to do 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZWTKzE6iB
something, quick.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHUkaMf8AT

"Okay, fine, we will 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKlxlN02KC
mock GD later," said Seungri giving G-Dragon a playful smile. "I'll go 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi4h2U92Flx
into the restaurant and meet the guy."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRwd6VbwRN

Yes. Finally. I thought 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQuS0UrqEu
he would never go. After G-Dragon's little jealous showdown, I thought 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkAQBFAbyEX
everything was going to be delayed.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDrZfFQIcr

"I'll come with you," said TOP. "I also would like to know who this guy is."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUj9memVCSJ

"We will wait out here," said Daesung.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuzTBRz6cWJ

Seungri and TOP started their way towards the restaurant, while the rest of us just stood there like statues.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa887AaiVfw

"So, are we going to stay here or what?" G-Dragon asked.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxR7iZHyWDB

As much as I wanted to 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRSo7eE37iX
stay here and see what will go on with the others in the restaurant, I 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0pxJHqTbOF
decided it was time for G-Dragon and I to talk.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlWe1UtL6If

***1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDyEbaBm3p

Zoey's P.O.V1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUZJTr21Ar

As much as I tried to 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwCqp370GH4
enjoy this meal we were having, I couldn't wait to get out of this place1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7xkZI3sC08
and just go back to the hotel. After my little talk with Jehan, I 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj9z7v2dXjt
haven't been able to talk again freely. I had been quiet throughout the 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhfFKvW37yz
whole meal and I bet he also noticed it too.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpiUwZe00CX

"Have you finally decided to follow table manners or are you tired of talking to me?" Jehan asked.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMtxp1WxaC

"If by tired, you mean scared, then yes," I said as I finished my noodles on the plate.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd3KJ4ZY8B5

"Scared? Are you really that scared of me?" Jehan had a questioning look on his face.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWRBpygLH1F

"Well, ya. Do you see the way you look at me sometimes? No, you don't. Silly of me for even asking."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeuYfQ3coBe

"Looks like you're getting all worked up for nothing, Zoey." Jehan got a napkin on the table and wiped the corners of his mouth.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCc0RiNkpLs

"What do you want me to 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLmhCGUJao
do? I just found out that you smuggle diamonds, which to me is very 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8U4i0Jo4Is
illegal like drugs and gun trafficking. And I'm very scared that there 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLC3xLtfWD
are a lot of guns involved because you pointed one at me back in Paris."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXrOFIFs67m

"Don't blame me. You wanted to know what I was up to."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ36qHXWEWYi

"Well, you should have played hard to get. Given that look you give me, I wouldn't even have asked any further."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM8l6pC2F1J

Jehan shook his head and1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZVaZxAeWK
surprisingly, he chuckled as he leaned back on his chair. "I wonder how1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPbBAQ48n1c
your group members even put up with you. You're amusing yet so 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDPqRBPqTy
annoying."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8gU3aTV6L

"My group members and I get along just fine despite my drama and the petty fights we have."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhqMHRrVV9

"Mmm. I see that. Are you up for dessert?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVAQ8eLOhV

"Do you know what, I don't want dessert. I want to go back to the hotel if you don't mind."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEdLGhKvK30

"You can leave if you give me the teddy bear," said Jehan as he outstretched his arm and opened his palm.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqHgs9RFdJ

"Wait," I said as I held my purse close with the teddy bear in it. "I need some assurance from you about something."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGzZLek9Lqr

Jehan looked rritated and folded his arms. "What?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyAA5B1xZFH

"Tell me this will be the last time you're going to tell me to do anything for you."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjw7nK7epjF

Jehan looked at me and I could tell that he was studying me. "Why? You don't want to help me out anymore?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡywBaejZ2Ay

"Heck no!" This time, I was a little loud and a few heads in the restaurant looked my way. I lowered my voice. "Sorry."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLEHn36A6kr

Jehan looked unmoved by my reaction, but I could easily tell that in the inside, he was pretty pissed.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbeHNKn2th

"Just so you know, this might probably be the last time you will ever see me again," said Jehan in a cool, calm tone.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7C39gzxC8U

"For real?" I raised an eyebrow, not really believing that he was telling the truth.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhzlGIwnaKr

"Yes, for real."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRfI3snp1p5

"So, you aren't going to come back and threaten me, right?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43ivYTKped

"Yes. Maybe we will meet1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4mN4cIAkKv
someday in the future. The only reason why I threatened you was so that1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡah3uyduWHn
you could carry those diamonds for me from Paris to Korea."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡawCbUeUTZx

"Why? Because we were using a private plane and there was less security?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQlbtLGUhn

"I'm impressed. You're actually smart."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCic9QmC3D

"I watch too many movies." I gave him a smile, though I didn't really mean it.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2Jewa467x

"Figured. So, the teddy, please." Jehan had his arm outstretched again.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxYHNnWidvJ

I took a deep breath. This was it. Once I give him the teddy, it will all be over and I can finally be in peace.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGFPygkJc2C

Just as I was about to open my purse and take out the small teddy, a voice I recognised came behind me.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXCB2m45gcW

"Zoey, hey!"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLszk1oKiL

Seungri? I quickly 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEuGznzgZOR
turned around and standing at the door of the restaurant, stood Seungri 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMD2db4spU7
with TOP beside him. I was so horrified. Oh no! What were they doing 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWwlotrXd1S
here?1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1bKFMVWJQu

They came over to our 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlzMVsFJkD
table and I still couldn't believe that they were here. I tried to put 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCWmbD1IC2o
up a smile but so far, I couldn't. I looked over at Jehan who had a grim1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zR8L4QJ9y
look on his face. This was not supposed to happen. What were we going 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFxGX5X6bl
to do now?1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7p4gCDGITy

"Hey, Zoey," said TOP. Then he turned to look at Jehan. "Mind if we sit?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOYyChjUoU

"Sure," said Jehan giving TOP a smile. "We met at the fashion show in Paris."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9XiXOPLsru

"Ya, we did," said TOP as he sat down and Seungri sat opposite him. "Your name again?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnTCJNVwbBW

"Jehan."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt30IMzToRz

"Nice to meet you," said Seungri. "I'm...."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8N348qOmRk

"There is no need for introductions, Seungri," said Jehan. "I already know who you are."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyapVmYsYwA

"Good," said Seungri. "So, what brings you here?"1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGQH91v7EIb

"I just came here to visit. I met Zoey again and decided to have lunch together."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2zanCSetA

"Oh." Seungri nodded his head.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJ18ZDjcho

"Ya," I said as I took a glass of water beside me and drank from the cup.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsDGolTMKVr

"Weren't you the same guy at the café with Zoey the other day?" TOP asked.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcfMNDLsBU2

I almost spit out the 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoDg9G3SPfv
water in my mouth but I tried not to. I ended up choking instead. The 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZrrFtjFxkn
three men all turned to look at me and I hit my chest as my eyes begun 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGkwfVXI01
to water.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOhglffmidC

"Are you okay, Zoey?" Seungri asked.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMXYVcs7Gu

"Ya, I'm fine," I said. How did they figure out that Jehan was the person I met at the café?1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6eab14h6Z

"Yes, Zoey and I met at the café the first day I got here," said Jehan, answering TOP's question.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxGCeW5BsN

Jehan looked at me and I1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvw5TkU3Oc6
bet he was also wondering how the others could have figured out all 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡflskJrSIs5
this. I gave him a look that said I had no idea how they did.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdUWsrLOc0

"May I ask what you're 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GYYLBY5Ek
doing here?" I asked looking at TOP and then at Seungri. This was 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7PF0T1HXbH
getting frustrating and I didn't want them to be here anymore.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAvLcGqknp

"Oh, we just came here 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3ezX4tNp5
to see if we could shop for a few things," said Seungri. "Then we saw 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5O57n32CW
you as we were walking by and decided to say hi."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQx9yJOo4y

"Hope we didn't interrupt you with anything," said TOP. "You two seemed to be having a serious conversation."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDgIQrdmfDn

"No, you didn't," said Jehan.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9mVWAHgeL

Then a phone rang. It was Jehan's phone. We were all silent at the table as Jehan looked at his phone.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡos2HTbpadp

"I think it's time to leave," said Jehan putting his phone on silent. "I have a business meeting to attend to."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpoNIjjnqcd

"Okay," I said. "We will meet some other time then before you leave for Paris."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBWBruHsw4j

"Yes, we will," said 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpv4NWNkUz
Jehan as he pulled our his wallet and pulled the cash out to pay for the1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ7x9SPl20t
bill, leaving it on the table. He quickly stood up from his chair.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTA1540Il7

"We will stay in touch," he said as he looked at me and then turned to face the others. "It was nice meeting you."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLyFqYNjQ5

"You too," said Seungri.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5EaUya7aj

Jehan gave a small smile1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0sNbnmvJE9
and swiftly left the restaurant. I wanted to growl in frustration, but 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvh0IWWXbV3
not in front of Seungri and TOP. When I thought I could finally give the1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQD7QHyirs
teddy bear away, these two show up. Why was this happening to me?1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVf521wQOXA

"He seemed kind of nice," said Seungri. "Okay, let's go shopping."1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMbyIC8gv61

"Are you up for it, Zoey?" TOP asked, as he looked at me.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmlCBzOdbT

"Sounds fun," I said as enthusiastically as I could.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUjf8QqxjL

"Great, let's go," said Seungri and we all stood up the table and headed out of the restaurant.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhIaY2Hmhh3

I wondered how I was 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK4PV2Lxczc
going to have fun when I knew what I had come here for hadn't gone as 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3yw8PvGDG
planned. And all that still meant that I still had a gun pointed to my 1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7P4McfwATK
head until I give the teddy bear away.1156Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ91a22H43qs

This was just great!
