Zoey's P.O.V1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHRZpvDoATi
Waking up this Monday 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBUT6bQhGc
morning was hectic. I didn't want to get out of bed, but in one way or 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7RKd5lku3g
another, I would have to. I lay awake, thinking. I didn't want to face 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiqSoPVpnB6
off the challenges for today knowing that one of them was dealing with 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jLhVMQ6QO
Jehan. Since I still have the teddy bear, I wasn't as free as I expected1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ53IZ5eUHRB
myself to be.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ynDY67xUD
I couldn't stop 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwRMOvCmyZs
wondering what Seungri and TOP were doing at the mall yesterday. As much1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFzWUNRVUa9
as I wanted to believe that it was a coincidence, I couldn't help but 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡssCWt7pc2e
feel that something was wrong.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMTEoOkrML
Could they have known 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQoI257Pc4
about Jehan? And if they did, then how? I shook my head. Maybe all that 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSLzan9lJm
was nothing but a coincidence and I was just being paranoid. If they 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF9a0dtadBn
really had found out about Jehan, they would have been asking questions 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCKqTH78PtG
about him and what he does while we were shopping. But they didn't. We 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWC621YukAX
just had our usual conversation.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKHONT5wpF
I brushed off all those 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDoijVAJMni
thoughts aside when the alarm on my phone rang telling me to get up. The1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0iwU30J1MD
last time I had ever put up an alarm was the morning of my last day of 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgkJdV9YTA
high school. Eversince I became a musician, I never put up an alarm when1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS9WEiRG9q2
I knew I had someone around to wake me up. Like Sam.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc53LbmHKp9
But now that she wasn't 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhYwSJL4JLl
here, I had to wake up on my own. Most of the time, I would do so 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEncVj2k3db
without her help. But when I overslept, she was always there to wake me.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJvEj3STYb
Anyway, right now, I was just too troubled in my sleep that I must have1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡej1zb06JBz
woken up early before the alarm rang.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRlONp24EQL
I sat up on my bed and 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNttjpyOMJF
switched off the alarm. I checked the empty bed beside mine and I 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYcpfTIu4jW
couldn't help but realise how much I miss Sam. I don't know why I was 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmiGWzrrfd
feeling this way, but I hated the fact that I was missing her so bad. 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2miarW26b
Not after what happened yesterday at the mall and all over social media.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡclOl9KnP9k
After seeing her with 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLDGbafO1Wb
G-Dragon yesterday broke my heart further into tiny pieces. As much as I1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuW8cR1d0Sm
knew she was only there just to try and resolve things with G-Dragon, I1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmcJNLAem8B
was filled with fury seeing the two of them together. And to make 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDSoj24AF5C
matters worse, after I had left the mall, I went online and there were 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhgEPBCSsca
pictures of the two everywhere. They were a trending topic for the whole1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0J0UzQiR6A
day. That left me devastated.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjshWlWHxps
I couldn't stop looking 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfxTBtAL1l
at pictures online even when I came back to the hotel. I read so many 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiq5G7AQMZL
comments. As much as there were so many haters around (like myself), so 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG70zLuGGKc
many people couldn't stop talking about how adorable the two looked 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1WwQAasrJ
together. I couldn't help but admit to myself that they were right. They1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7b4GYcAXYR
really did make a cute couple. And that left me envious. I wished it 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUFHylN7cq
was G-Dragon and I. Not G-Dragon and Sam.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdw6WtjyZAf
That sent me boiling to a1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqnyF4jZmDu
point where I almost threw my phone away. When Christine came to see me1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2hv2ELqGh
in my room and found me in an angry fit, I told her how painful I felt 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmIF4ADrvE4
seeing G-Dragon and Sam together.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2P44Bh7fM5
Christine had told me to1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNnvvYuxUHs
cool down and that I shouldn't be jealous. She told me that Sam was 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1HNQMuAXdq
only with G-Dragon because she was only trying to resolve things. I told1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7cF5uTLp9k
her that I already knew that. Christine quickly left me to myself when 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQ4s55Vne8
she realised that she couldn't calm me down. So I was alone for the rest1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmr6WC32516
of the day, not speaking to anyone. I didn't even join the others for 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ92iaaZufzn
supper. I had ordered for my supper to be taken up to my room.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3NVZBKRBVa
And now, I had to face 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPhj1wkx4K
another challenge of seeing everyone today, most especially Sam, since 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpcsMNv0tYp
we have to finish up on the dance routine and start working on the music1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9zzrhKajZe
video as soon as possible. I have to put up with all this today when I 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTt8YrEDb3
was still so upset.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZn6LZzU2m
I quickly got out of bed and went in the showers, hoping the cool water would cool down all the boiling anger in me.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDs6zmzsbaH
After I was done, I 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmjAUqMuaqt
quickly dressed up. And carrying my purse with me, I went to meet the 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOeX5u1xWR
others at the dining table for breakfast.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7eosc9JS6
I found them already 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2yo9AAXzjb
settled. When I came to sit, everyone mouthed out a "good morning" to 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2taBL7PmeQ
me, except Sam. And I replied back with a smile on my face.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3tZaf45Vsl
I felt a little awkward 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMedWI76Jm
when I looked at Sam who sat across the table next to Collins and hadn't1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkAELj3Zez
said a word. She was busy with her breakfast, her usual bacon, eggs and1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxbnA6osSGf
toast with juice. I realised she hadn't even looked up at me once and 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0k3ZkGrw0g
that also felt weird.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvk38xOfIY
I know that she and I 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNS0n3jxVM
aren't talking to each other at the moment, but I expected her to say a 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡatIYpDDSUD
"good morning" or even look at me to acknowledge that I was around. She 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLIX3Iezgyb
was one person even if we ever had an argument, she would at least try 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyW5QfKAH19
to say something to me. The fact that she didn't greet me, made me feel 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzS59SctbOo
like something was wrong.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4yj9fbiAG5
I poured myself a cup of1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHY76a3NNGl
coffee, trying to ignore what I was feeling at the moment. I got some 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcEUN8ciIIQ
slices of toast and ate my breakfast.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK5UAHLbBba
"Hey, Sam," said Mike, who sat right next to her. "Have you seen what people have been saying about you and G-Dragon?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsS5l4skNPQ
My heart almost skipped a1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDCX5i5XtK8
beat and I almost choked on my coffee. What was Mike getting at? I know1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQMaYTCyS0
he does things just to annoy me sometimes, but this time, he's gone way1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwTW5SNYFgk
too far. I was over here! Hello!1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9JGQvqBAfA
"You don't have to remind me," Sam said as she looked at her brother. "I've decided not to go online today."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr2UVpyDquA
"For one who doesn't like attention, you might just disappear off the face of the earth," said Collins.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUwFlJxUmI
"I can do that," said Sam, staring up at the ceiling obviously building castles in the air.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYXXhddsY8E
"I have no doubt about it."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4TuxwW06B
"But I don't see why you1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ80uIRmrF1n
have to," said Daniel. "Just because people make stories about you and 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCEQnVgLSLb
G-Dragon dating, doesn't mean that you are."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡelsnfHibxJ
"One thing about fans is1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJZfbjYA8y
that they can make a story so believable, even those who don't know 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjN6HswoUv
what's going on, might end up believing it," said Christine.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvkgMs2QI6X
"I know," said Lee. 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8kd4SC74pl
"Right now, some k-pop news sites are already taking this to the next 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6H0OKErrW6
level. But they all say they couldn't be too sure about it until they 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0uvPxaofn0
get an official statement from you and G-Dragon."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBbOFYeC31j
"Wow, that's serious," said Sam.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8n0z2PPmF6
"But right now, we have no time for interviews," said Collins. "We have a music video to work on."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDakl3Gsps
"I can work with that," said Sam, with a smile on her face.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuM6YOVFrYX
"Alright, guys, finish your breakfast. You know the drill."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7HyjF8uY2q
"Aye, aye," said Daniel.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3sCMzdvy6x
"Well, you're quiet today, Zoey," said Christine as she looked at me. She sat directly across from me on the table.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpnIOJVpSz
"Do you have a problem with that?" I asked, eyeing Christine.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshOR6LMUQb
"You're just too quiet, that's all."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡug8XkrQvX4
"You should be quiet more often," said Collins as he got up from the table. "It kind of suits you."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwit0kaNmYZ
I frowned at Collins. "Thanks. I'll try doing so more often. That's if I really want to."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8ysbgZ9zS
"Now that's the Zoey I know," said Mike, raising his eyebrow at me and smiling.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRkQ452cBck
I stuck my tongue out at1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxx4qVoCyOM
him but he continued to smile mockingly nonetheless. I noticed that the1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXv3z639q5d
others were laughing and smiling at the whole thing, except Sam. She 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfSnWBR2Gl
still wasn't looking in my direction.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHk5sTeqe7x
Soon after breakfast, we1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM1KRlk0pYZ
left for YG. In the SUV, Sam sat at the back with her brothers. We were1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnlz5kynIUg
all chatting happily in the car but she was quiet the whole way. She 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeoljOL9ohJ
was like that nowadays, always lost in thought. I wondered what she 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZlgw5VLg1
could be thinking about. Sam was one person who never really shared what1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2yQYWkVXh
she thought. When you asked her about it, she would usually say 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSbcfiwK5K
"nothing" and say no more. But if she really wanted to share with you, 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7Bhk8VnGr
she would.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA2wdhw0a1L
We arrived at YG and we 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgZS6YWX9d
found ourselves back at the dance studio we were practising in on 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeSoIH3YmMU
Saturday. We found our dance instructor and all the BigBang members with1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp3TqmC96N5
the rest of the backup dancers, waiting for us.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwf7rIZ8LAq
When everyone was 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaRGngxm01W
exchanging greetings with each other, G-Dragon didn't respond to me when1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJ17ykFsB4
I said "hi" to him. Given with what happened yesterday, I bet he was 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH01ttDas9j
still mad at me for how I behaved towards Sam. He didn't even want to 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs6GljBol0Y
hang out with us soon after Sam had left.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQzlvf7KLQ
He not responding to me 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ34xp9jk8zm
felt awkward and I longed for him to at least give me some attention. He1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWwkSbMO1wy
didn't say "hi" to Sam either but just nodded his head when she greeted1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOObV5h2uUL
him. At least that was acknowledging someone even if they weren't 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwkd88mPil
talking to each other. And he was staring at her the whole time even 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLB0NrTijz
when she wasn't looking. I thought of throwing a shoe at him, but I just1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDG5gOPNec
looked away instead.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCkNzCp619R
We went straight to 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkbMCQvNPZ
practising for almost a good five hours. And those proved to be the 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4pWmLZ8Le9
hardest five hours of my life. Since the dance routine starts with 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopMMNa5mEH
G-Dragon and I, it was really hard having him so close. I realised that I1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoDZfZIBaHe
still had feelings for him. At some point during practise, I almost 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhARi6XHDyo
hugged him, but I brought myself not to. And that wasn't the worst part.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwEToqybCZ
During pratice, I 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnIjXewXkjm
noticed that G-Dragon still couldn't take his eyes off Sam. This was 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPLlwbIMSjS
getting to the point where I wanted to scream at him to snap out of it. I1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXY14UCSgG
wondered what he saw in Sam and that sent me thinking.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIMvvMcOxAU
G-Dragon wasn't the only1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡetsS5UiXzU
one who liked Sam. Come to think of it, Daesung also liked her. 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9BPOXhgRud
Probably even Seungri and TOP, given that Seungri had a beautiful crown 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJ6QisFqoY
made just for her and TOP flirts with her whenever he gets the chance 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKg4s2sniw5
to. Taeyang already had Hyo-rin and always takes Sam like a sister. What1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe4CUwZTTNH
did Sam have that even most of the BigBang members like her so much?1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2OvVlwDfW
As her best friend, I 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJUHVZEPCE
should be aware of her qualities. She was nice and friendly to whoever 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYeN0qKqjm
approached her. She is very pretty and had a great body, though she was 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZwtl7tbUqS
never ever fully aware of her physical beauty. She always thought she 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWOOuhNHUM
was like any other ordinary girl but she was more than that.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71cSJwIwF8
She is also smart, 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyE2Zgmy6Cm
caring and always understanding. She is a great leader and one who 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgsXm9IdJaz
always had our backs whenever we needed it. I don't know how many times 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgViMVo0rXb
she had always tried to get The Toxins out of trouble. I agree that even1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6WMjSZFkt
if it looked like we don't appreciate what she does, we really do.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO7MQIzjK69
Sam has a lot of good 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVfyAsbnmI9
qualities. Maybe that's why she is liked and loved by everyone. Even her1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4CBCbqKLGx
fans. She is honest, when she wanted to. She is also a pretty good 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEeCI8vTK70
liar, only when it was necessary to do so. And she is one who wouldn't 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrDet87tPd
want to hurt anyone around her.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMMc9BLai1D
Realising this made me 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ56OGeepWv
feel a little guilty as I looked at Sam who was dancing in front of me 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzk06yfxOQI
with Taeyang beside her. I looked at her face and she had this smile 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwF5LcPweuB
that reflected her innocence. I realised that I had been giving Sam a 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0d2IkEZLRp
real hard time after I found out G-Dragon likes her and not me. She is 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUio4e8y24a
my best friend and would do nothing to hurt me. I know she was only 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeY9k7W7GRD
looking out for me like she always does, but I am just too ignorant to 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl7CUOg2SLW
realise it till now.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShJIAXGXPz
"Wait, hold on a minute guys," said the choreographer. We all stopped dancing as instructed.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KMMHEH7LM
"Zoey, you aren't 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYvv5xw54zi
concentrating," said the choreographer as he looked at me. "This is the 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM7q5UERR7f
second time you have made the same mistake."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hm26bJdQ6
"Oh, sorry," I said, scratching the back of my head feeling embarrassed. "I'll try to be more cautious next time."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMcvzrTYz0f
"Okay. Let's continue from where we left off."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzamKRTESe0
It was lunch the time we1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkk1R03dfYC
broke off for a break. The choreographer left and the others were 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5s3C8Oi2jD
talking to some of the backup dancers. I noticed Sam at the corner of 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDUnsM1wEoq
the room with Christine and some of the backup dancers talking. It 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35MUNb5EJw
looked like they were having one hell of a funny conversation because 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoeGjAVMnQ8
they were all laughing.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZnUPr3aeFh
"Hey, why are you here all alone?" came TOP as he came to stand right next to me.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEcbE0no0kN
"Nothing," I replied, looking down at my sneakers. "I just want to be alone today."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNiR2tfrSta
"Still not talking to Sam?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFLGBm7alq
"Nope."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZgV8TLVCMg
TOP's lips rose to a smile. "You really are stubborn."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJLS9Iesho
"Too bad it's in my DNA." I smirked.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0yBkmg3L1p
"And how long do you think you're going to put up with it?" TOP folded his arms as he looked at me.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFUYUN3N41S
"Maybe till we go home." I shrugged my shoulders.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF4sNgNTCwZ
"I doubt it. Judging by the way you performed today, you looked really preoccupied that you made several mistakes."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡElN8EUPQEt
"Being preoccupied is Sam's thing."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsDmTkpWaGk
"I know. But you aren't 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHsFGaPbM8
yourself, that's for sure. The Zoey I know wouldn't be here all alone. 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7AQBwChcS
You would be chit chatting like you always do."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVGZBZsEJqh
"What if I just want to be alone for today?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeyPlB9oH5B
"It's okay. Everyone has those kinds of days. But you make it look like being alone sometimes is a bad thing."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkBeVGcFF0
I frowned. "Why?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡne0Sndh0Ka
"Because you look miserable."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT7xtWQYFIi
I didn't expect that coming from TOP. My mouth was agape as I looked at him.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ95KiLXt7UQ
"Miserable!"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaLckoD9Ug7
"Ya." TOP nodded his head. "It clearly shows."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ282OFaevtw
I thought for a moment 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjvDB9jB5en
and went back to looking at Sam and Christine with the backup dancers. 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlO7X6lj1yc
Mike, Daesung, Seungri and Daniel had also formed their own little 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQRikgaGRCu
circle and were laughing and chatting too. Taeyang and G-Dragon were 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnyLKbt5xmD
with some of the backup dancers, having a normal chat.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrfgP3LV0G6
Seeing all this in front1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQYbJ3M9YW
of me made me realise that TOP is right. I am definitely miserable. By 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLiD1OOKl8
now, I would be with the others, chatting. But here I was, all alone. 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGghc6A191X
Until TOP came to talk to me.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gDx8a5XZH
"I guess you're right," I said. "I am miserable."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnIAexiw3C9
"Don't worry about it. Aren't you going to resolve things with Sam?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1LKsZnMO30
"I don't know," I said 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUly377Bfa1
as I looked at Sam who was laughing out loud. "I'm still mad at her, but1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVv2SGM4NY
something in me says that I can't stay like this for long."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyvkmSabrXH
I told TOP what happened in the morning and how it felt weird that Sam didn't say a word to me nor even looked at me.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9Wm52PVUf
"I felt so bad about it," I said, shaking my head.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxUrzpjZuH
"Then why don't you talk to her?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhwbVDqIey3
"Pfft!" I rolled my eyes. "Why should I? Sam always does all the talking."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMY1p77tnhg
"Really? You think Sam would do that this time around? Besides, she wasn't really at fault with all this."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjGX83f3Yr
"I know."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQBsXvYTyG
"So? Are you going to try and talk to her yourself?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1iYS8olTr
"I'll think about it."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxucAI4ZIq
"Hey, guys," came Seungri, suddenly calling out to everyone in the room. "Who wants pizza?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8aKZ3dvRpI
Everyone muttered out "me!" really loud. Seungri smiled and said he would bring the pizza.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUjcuEjoLP
"Mind if you guys can help me?" Seungri asked as he came up to TOP and I.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjlhkk0cQVH
"Sure," I said. I really needed to get out of here for a while and breathe.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8hdHUuP3X
The three of us went out1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUqhXeYy5Fp
of the room and headed to the elevator to take us downstairs. Seungri 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlgblgHcq5
already had his phone out calling the pizza parlour to take the order.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYVYrBQ0vK
As soon as we reached the ground floor, we stuck around in the lobby waiting for the pizza.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvbXi6npOk9
"I'm so hungry," said Seungri, staring at his watch.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHAThrYJxVR
"Chill, you just ordered1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFSOwUsranQ
pizza like right now," said TOP who was sitting right next to me on one1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6XyWDgpm2r
of the chairs in the waiting area of the lobby.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3nqafMPBhj
"But I'm so hungry."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRVwBcIKOU
"Trust me, you aren't 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jfbJHJzok
the only one," I said as I looked at Seungri who was still standing. 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOx9hR2Ian
"Sit down or else you're going to drain the last remaining blood you 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFR8v0tW3f
have."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzfMfUGLlGi
"Well, that's mean," said Seungri as he sat next to me. "What's up with you?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJ7GbgdgBU
"Nothing," I said as I folded my arms.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjitEvQrl4b
"She's cranky, don't mind her," said TOP.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGNmDq7SvA
"I'm not cranky. Just having an awful day."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqvNtIRrv7D
"Ya, we can see that," said Seungri with a smirk on his face.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5dHWvHR9Z
I didn't say anything as1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv95qXAVXmC
I shook my head. All of the sudden, I felt my phone vibrate against my 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0OYLN0DL1u
thigh in the pocket of my sweat pants. I took out my phone. Jehan was 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBEQWRnbiVo
calling.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnva3uLTTGB
"Isn't it that French guy we met yesterday at the mall?" TOP asked, looking at my phone screen.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3bHA3wzHOl
"Can you please not look!" I said as I turned the phone screen away from TOP's eyes.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDuDq4gQW3t
"Okay, well you better answer that call."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkw6D5rGPlL
I stood from the chair and answered Jehan's call when I was a few feet away from the two.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46S7Q2dvaG
"Hello," I answered.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZaifUg5qTu
"Hey, Zoey," said Jehan. "Are you busy today?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtmx5K6Ty0
"Ya, I'm very busy," I answered. "Why?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVE55g5Nuww
"We have to meet today, ASAP."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOc7lhw5pxD
"But I can't. I have a lot to do today and I don't think I'll manage to meet with you."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzkvOuzx62
"I don't care. I need that teddy bear today. Not tomorrow, but today."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwnGsaMJ97F
I knew Jehan was going 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIVUONWtETL
to call and demand for the teddy bear. Luckily, I carried my purse with 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5U6vjkiyXr
the teddy bear in it. I hadn't removed it from my purse since yesterday 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgGYJpsrqT
and I checked to see if it was still in there this morning. The purse 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhAGfCeFnx
was upstairs in the dance studio.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9RzoEWCnEg
"Okay, what time do you want to get the teddy bear?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUqJGdksCdF
"I'm coming to YG to get it."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvchTKLsTk6
"What!" I was horrified and equally surprised. "No way. You can't come here."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslmIK6ACwW
"Fine. If you have a better idea, then call me or text in the next thirty minutes. I have to get that teddy today."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkZ7Ubgz6p
"You don't have to remind me," I snarled.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEeh6KCBXz
He cut the call and I 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMA3hyCCTs4
looked at my phone like I was ready to throw it out of the lobby through1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9F27kHLjKd
the open entrance doors. This was bad. Real bad. He wanted to come here1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsBC1dGcNWx
to get the teddy. That was going to be dangerous. If anyone were to see1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1UbpKZjg4j
him they would start to ask questions.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7dIH80crY
"Zoey," came Seungri's voice behind me.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwehqj6z7AP
I turned around and there stood Seungri and TOP staring at me.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28eYec65cZ
"What?" I asked.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ61DYsjvJmw
"Was that Jehan you were talking to?" TOP asked.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFZq83U3iZ
"Um, ya. Is there a problem?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKNjNU4Ga5
"You two didn't seem to be having a normal conversation," said Seungri. "It sounded like you were arguing or something."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJOFvAFAt4j
"Arguing? Pfft. No," I gave out a small laugh trying to hide my fear. "It was just some silly misunderstanding."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH3vpNaVKqJ
"Come on, Zoey," said TOP. "That was no ordinary misunderstanding and I know an argument when I see one."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnFgb5YBExT
"Guys, it's nothing. You're worrying for no reason."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0h0mwPKTLT
"Oh, ya? Then why were you talking about that teddy bear then? It's that small cute teddy he had sent you, right?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMqupwgEvg
Dang it! I was cornered 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9xW0djboG
now. They had heard about the teddy. I couldn't come up with a lie. If 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUnsU5by6Fy
anything, I'm a terrible liar. Looks like the truth will always come to 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIcwNHWyWz
light no matter how much you try to hide it.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL6wBQ10t2f
"Tell us, Zoey," said Seungri softly. "It can show on your face that something is wrong."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfhepvjUCQ
I sighed as I looked down on the floor. "Fine. But don't tell anyone."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2LIfAE43is
"Okay. Now tell us what's going on," said TOP.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXzxu9083Gj
We went back to settle down on the chairs. We were at a reasonable distance away from the receptionist so I could talk quietly.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQywJqp31r
I told them everything 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KrOM6sjSn
from what happened in Paris till now. They listened carefully and hadn't1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfUEETjUxY
said a word until I finished the whole story.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoGuA6kEXxv
"Have you told anyone about all this?" Seungri asked.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbz2dMPSsvb
"Just you two," I answered.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwmDqbXsuN1
"Wow, this is serious," said TOP, trying to take it all in. "He's a diamond smuggler?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8B0o68Q1u
"Surprising, right?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKagy27Dvo5
"He seemed so nice when we met him," said Seungri.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGYqvaCYsJ
"We should involve the police," said TOP.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYapLVORk31
"No! We can't!"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJqvNYv1zT
"Why?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHFSDCt4v40
"You know word goes out 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdTJVvRIx1m
fast. The next thing we know, it's going to be all over social media and1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ferBKFNB2
might give The Toxins a bad name. I would rather do this quietly."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDLjOzK9vH0
"And how are you so sure he isn't going to use you again?" Seungri asked.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPuAOWqDY1G
"He assured me that this1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjPm0xN37I
will be the last time he will ever use me to do any of his dirty 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOgQl0kLDTv
business. I just have to give him the teddy bear and that's it."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4kU5mwmKn
"Give who the teddy bear?" came Christine's voice.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5u7Awc67XG
The three of us turned 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBYGOi413Nu
and we saw Christine standing a few feet away from us. We hadn't heard 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasAwvP4Wzq
the elevator doors open nor her footsteps. How did she get here unheard?1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8GMspbvGF0
"Christine, you're here?" I raised my eyebrows.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsrz25TNVFf
"Ya, I came to check up on you guys since some of us are really hungry," said Christine.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0aNUTXBBsJ
"The delivery guy hasn't arrived yet," said Seungri with a smile.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpuWU0M0rg
"What's this about some guy and a teddy bear?" Christine asked as she looked at me.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGVAve0Aqk
"Ummm, it's nothing, Christine," I said, waving my hand in the air. "Just talking about some random stuff."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfkVOqXrvK
"Random stuff involving a1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgljWWmCodU
teddy bear?" Christine shook her head at me as she folded her arms. "I 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6d8KFRzuo6
clearly heard you talking about giving some guy a teddy bear and that 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMckovIC7Fc
you won't have to do his dirty business anymore. I know you're hiding 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0zniDxqbr
something from me, Zoey. So you better start talking."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9epnavpbmx
I rolled my eyes and sighed so loud in frustration. How many people was I going to tell the truth to today?1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLhfWyrxWm
"Fine," I said, looking at Christine. "But please don't tell anyone about this."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSt66mQylLU
"Okay, I won't."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOw9FO3FEP
"Sit down."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXICRs4dmkl
Christine sat right next to TOP and she looked at me with anticipation.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMATLQzz87
"I got myself into trouble," I started.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOq5dTFYkMf
"Great!" Christine threw her arms in the air. "What did you do now, Zoey?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5DDum2GBAg
"I got involved with a diamond smuggler."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMnOMVexm5G
Christine's face soon 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUkcIEkf4A9
drained of colour and she looked as white as a ghost. She tried to open 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPr1PMYU7TG
her mouth to say something but she couldn't. Until....1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7yBSx2UqwP
"What!"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ8WykhXDol
TOP quickly covered up 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBa04NKKR6
her mouth before she could shout out anything else. The receptionist 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFdbtHsQ13
looked our way and soon went back to work. When he was sure she had 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg1yC7hKN8y
cooled down, TOP removed his hand from Christine's mouth.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5JA7CtIGH
"Are you cool now?" TOP asked.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLDEcszwyK
"Cool?" asked Christine, sounding anxious. "I come here and hear about some diamond smuggler. How can I be cool?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1XS9bmDDE
"I know you're really mad at me right now, but you asked what was going on," I said, looking apologetically at her.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSVjDLaGs9l
"Of course I'm mad!" 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtRDkuLISg
Christine whispered angrily at me. "I know you always get in trouble, 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOG3CkbS2S
but this by far is the worst one of them all."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzrtCvLW3wz
"At least it's not a drug dealer," I said shrugging my shoulders.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPpi9L3GUAX
"Is there a difference? Seriously, Zoey. How the heck did this happen?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgESzNH4QM
"It happened in Paris," I said. "Remember the guy I introduced you to at the fashion show?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEmHso3MdaV
"Ya, I remember. What about him?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh7tsT2lnor
"He's the diamond smuggler," said TOP.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdgpB45D75L
"WHAT!"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeLuSla73kT
"Ssh!" TOP, Seungri and I hushed at her at the same time, putting our fingers on our lips.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7S3GjoyIqL
"Guys, I can't help it, sorry," said Christine. "Wait, that handsome guy is the diamond smuggler?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVyqVEVWvjr
"And the one I met at the café," I said.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfIka1v8msL
"So he is the one who sent us the teddy bear?" Christine asked.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPws089xxn
"Yes," the three of us answered at the same time.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPeioTPBVG5
"But why does he want the teddy bear back?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ647jxEZxAt
"Because the teddy has diamonds in it," said Seungri.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibUt5t5xDH
"Wow, seriously?" Christine's eyes bulged out with surprise.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhLIsm4IRdR
"Ya," I said. "I planned1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMMeVNnD5i0
on giving him the teddy bear yesterday but I couldn't because these 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl012donVW8
guys showed up." I pointed at Seungri and TOP with my two thumbs.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxPLuyLB1g3
"So you're the one who 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSS4O723WaA
got the teddy from our room yesterday," said Christine. "Lee was 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0XyDdmAr6S
searching for it and couldn't find it. She thought she must have 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKPiwHzh1j
misplaced it somewhere. You even went to meet him? I thought you went 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf1IRQHyPxX
out with Seungri."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxFvgn7Bew5
"I lied."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDqaRms8nf
Christine shook her head. "I knew something was up. You are really not good at lying."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3FRpNvqSeW
"I know." I gave Christine a grim look, not feeling impressed about myself at all.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAcBaLC8y2W
"Why didn't you tell us you were being threatened by this guy?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFl9ShV2lhY
"I wasn't supposed to. And besides, it was too dangerous. He threatened me with a gun in Paris not to tell anyone."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqXu8k54Wrj
"That's great. There are guns too. Blackmail would have been so much better."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNP55sk5ILR
"I know. Now he wants the teddy bear back today. And I don't know what to do. He wanted to come here and get the teddy himself."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHhejwZBD62
"Then why didn't you let him?" Christine asked.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwCUwZiCbnt
"That was going to raise a lot of questions if anyone saw him," said Seungri.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡogbiMPpjSq
"Now where is she going to meet him now? She has to take that teddy bear away or else it could land us into more trouble."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG6yVcDlUSs
"He said I should have a location as to where we meet," I said. "And I haven't thought of anything yet."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcS6tDNJBhh
"Why don't you meet after practice?" TOP suggested.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZuPgu1XmZ
"But where?" I asked.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNUKv6MNLjV
"Tell him you will meet at the café. The one you had met him in last time. TOP and I will take you there," said Seungri.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkJOltw508
"I'm also coming with you," said Christine. "And don't refuse." She pointed her finger at me when I opened my mouth to object.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtPcqhF56D8
"Fine, but remember, don't tell anyone," I said.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzZdNCnIG4
"Got it," said TOP and Seungri at the same time. Christine nodded her head.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4R841ayEyS
I took my phone out and 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4b2KvNT79W
texted Jehan that we should meet at the café after practise some time in1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSDeUDBF71
the evening. He replied saying that he would be there.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdlDQAjut7
"Okay, it's settled," I said as I put my phone back in my pocket.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIxpr2uJ5nw
"Yay! The pizza is here," said Seungri as he stood up and approached the pizza delivery man coming in through the entrance.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2q0lObShYu
Seungri had ordered ten 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqVr2PzFXmv
large sized boxes of pizza, enough for everyone upstairs. And the 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKCqNpT5pGP
flavour, mac and cheese. Sam's favourite. Well, almost everyone's 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXspVhuSX59
favourite.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHrhIh4fTq
We helped Seungri with the pizza and went to the elevator which took us back up to the floor of the dance studio.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFoNeQNUiI3
"When all of this is over, Zoey, you're going to get a scolding from me," said Christine, as we walked down the hall.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BaI2ldANL
"I'll be ready for 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIppouAUcDt
that," I said as I rolled my eyes. "I just can't wait to have everything1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDgpc2pEoM
back to the way they were. Before all the threatening."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1SX6qGMZfF
"No, they won't," said Seungri. "You still have Sam to resolve things with."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwvcBwlE8dh
"And G-Dragon," TOP added.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOAwaNQiyLm
"Can we please not talk about that?" I asked. "You don't have to remind me all the time."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWL8KDtPQUE
"Well, someone has to," said Christine.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPIePZtkMd
"Just so you know, I'll agree to resolve things on my own terms."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkjcl1DvMV6
"Jeez," said Christine, rolling her eyes at me. "When you say that, I have to get ready for the unexpected."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8kJkHEbhZ
We found ourselves back 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡotekABEKyN
at the studio and this time, I found Sam talking to Taeyang. G-Dragon 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMAN8eSXjrR
was still talking to some of the back up dancers and I could see him 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFTXNEJSpKC
staring at Sam through the corner of his eye. Or was that me being 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfvgSlFnmQy
paranoid?1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡosXrS4RPbC
Christine snapped her fingers right in front of me and I turned to look at her.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkUd333F4n9
"What?" I asked.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡofoFMhwRKY
"You were frowning," Christine answered.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkg0qr7r4ki
"Frowning? I wasn't frowning."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYcu2Mct3AM
"Says the person who 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNBqQAsEHaf
couldn't stand seeing G-Dragon looking at someone else." Christine gave 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnVcZRkwl1G
me a smirk and left me standing all alone by the door, while she joined 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfBGcVjqIRu
the others who had soon formed a circle around Seungri and TOP.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZcZnP3ziVG
Soon after lunch, we 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWITFlvDXNH
went straight back to practising. This time, for a good six hours. We 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4m1goqzhX
had to do the dance routine over and over again to perfect it. This time1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvUjbHXMOR
around, I made sure not to make any mistake like I had been doing 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7Fa9I7Mfp
earlier. This time, everything was coming out perfectly and I don't know1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vxQ2dLxll
how many times we had to do the routine all over again. But despite the1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUhGaGzgk8k
number of times we did it again, we had a whole lot of fun.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHUqlzMRNib
At some point in the 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEZ9z7jlwUt
afternoon, our two managers and Lee came over to check on us and they 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaiqP29bTyB
were really impressed. Yang Hyun-suk thought filming the dance practise 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqgJEZscrr
will be helpful and that they would release it after the music video. 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbh5OTWIbD
The dance practise was shot and it came out perfect, but still, we went 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYfx14r7eQ
back to practising until we could pratice no more.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtTofC0WKK
It was five and the sun 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJiBxUqKtD
was setting when we were finally done for the day. I was so tired that I1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Ws3pNnCd8
was lying on the floor. My body aching everywhere. Luckily, I wasn't 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGjEpAM2X4
the only one on the floor. Christine and Daniel were lying on either 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq5YWdDb7M6
side of me. We were all pretty tired.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWbHG6fFb00
The choreographer had already left and the backup dancers also started to leave. G-Dragon and Taeyang left together.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3lIxhVn0r
While I was resting and 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdhSXBBtZW
gathering up any ounce of energy I had left, Seungri was standing next 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3x6LhirLc
to my head and looking down on me. I looked up at him with a puzzled 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJ6jHXOmPt
look on my face.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPuFAhB01uK
"Get up, Zoey, we gotta go," he said.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ7ghapMM4i
"Go? Go where?" I asked.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡycy2YZgJeD
Christine roughly nudged me on my side with her elbow, I looked at her with a whining look on my face.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxVo8ioVkjQ
"Ouch, that hurt!" I said.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSNpGtxMoZR
"Are you forgetting, Zoey?" Christine asked, raising her eyebrows. "We have to go somewhere to do something."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡublXWIJcy9
It was then that I remembered that I was supposed to meet Jehan at the café. I totally forgot.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDGNBkNtWTW
"Oh, ya!" I quickly sat up on the floor and Christine followed. "We have to go."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGrgoVbZGuz
"Go where?" Daniel asked, still lying down on the floor and looking at us.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmrkI5C83Ie
"No where," I answered quickly. "We're just planning on going around the city for a drive."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVYNVDxi0iG
"I want to follow too," said Daniel.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡth2IftIPQw
"Where did you say you were going?" came Mike who had been talking with Sam and Daesung.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK8G03IGKQJ
I rolled my eyes. Seriously? The last thing I want is for everyone to follow and find out what's going on.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5uQoLwLoEg
"It's nothing really," said TOP. "We were planning to drive around the city. You don't have to follow."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAtAkVoSvy
"But this is not fair," said Daniel, sitting up quickly. "I also want to come along."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNP0n2NYy8
"Ya, me too," said Mike.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkOGrDCVpi
"Why don't you want 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEToKdqBZPy
these guys to go along?" Sam asked. I noticed that she still wasn't 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK4xHcBn9vX
looking at me. "You're just going for a drive. I see no reason for them 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHSmf2ILxTQ
not to follow."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSoFWSCWk3Z
I wanted to protest and 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUdxY05zTHR
refuse but then I realised that I wasn't supposed to talk to Sam. And 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHxriA6IQCK
refusing her was going to be pointless because I already know Seungri 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqkvg82yuu0
and TOP weren't going to deny her so easily.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsuTwWLYnzQ
"Okay, they can come along," said Seungri.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIwDiDMeen
Dang it!1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOEUE2LADm
"Okay, you'll find me back at the hotel. I'll tell Collins that you had to go out," said Sam to the others, giving them a smile.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY4ph8RGuNi
"I can take you back to the hotel if you want," said Daesung, addressing Sam.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhSi1AdJitX
"Thanks, that's nice of 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN6DaqgQ6Yc
you, Daesung," said Sam giving him a sweet smile. She turned to look at 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpTIWLtAAb3
the others. "Have fun you, guys."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmDMudwhFWU
Sam and Daesung left the1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Hy5Bq2TXU
room together and I couldn't help but look at the door and think to 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS22LGb6meP
myself that the two also made a nice pair.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3ZfrGpayO
"So, where are we going?" Mike asked.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHRy4Vq6SeR
"Please, don't ask any questions," I said as I turned to face him. "It's none of your business."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2eamBp87d
"Mmm, seeing the look on your face, something's up," said Daniel.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSzMJNFCxjP
Christine stood up from 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡon0cStZv4I
the floor and said, "look guys, if we tell, you have to promise not to 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxt2TiV0aHI
tell anyone. Not even Sam. No one."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3nTeboPqLz
I looked up at her with my eyebrow raised. "Are you seriously going to tell them?" I asked.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6ccNqEdsm
"Do I have a choice? You know how persistent these two are and they are probably going to find out anyway."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5nifRQxYxH
"Ya, Christine's right," said Seungri. "And we also couldn't refuse Sam for them to come along."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcoUdNvzTJ
"You just couldn't refuse because you like her too much," I said, turning to face Seungri.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQefJHh9sQc
Seungri shrugged and smiled. "What can I say? I've to obey the lovely queen, right?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoyx5gZASsj
I almost snapped back at him but I controlled myself and looked away.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxggMO6zhQl
"Okay, can we focus on telling us what's going on?" Daniel asked.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡclQpFJDEWa
"Fine," I said. "Someone tell them. I can't keep repeating myself with all this."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeB3zmb5MnG
TOP told Mike and Daniel what was going on. The two brothers were shocked after what they heard.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡANwDqymgNQ
"Oooh, you're in a lot of trouble now, Zoey," said Mike, looking at me and shaking his head.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOEYIF5NlL
"You don't have to remind me," I said rolling my eyes.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUOZSydlRu
"I can't believe that guy is the diamond smuggler," said Daniel.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpJSm6fpJWC
"I know," said Christine.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVdLYAOKuV
"You haven't told Sam about this?" Mike asked.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDbnqeSWnM
"No. No one has to know," I said. "Not even the police."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKGFqBMy8o
"I think you should have told Sam," said Daniel.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHFqsrQYez
"So that she can judge me? No way."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0r8HWqt3j
"You know Sam can never do that," said Seungri. "She would have helped in any way possible."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWgr7aJkQN5
"Don't try to convince 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaY84iCc2R0
her of anything," said Christine. "She probably won't listen like she 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡusDvJoUGWG
always does." I raised an eyebrow at Christine and she looked back at me1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0UxvbOSjws
like she could hit me with a hammer.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMRQruWx0PL
"Okay, let's go," said TOP.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUg89ceacX
I got up from the floor 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHR01RYWjL
with Daniel and I took my purse. We soon left the room and headed 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8axZC9TyEf
downstairs. Sam and Daesung had already left since there was no sign of 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6w1QoLYQ7i
Daesung's car in the parking lot. Christine and I went with Seungri in 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg4M5Bro5od
his car while Daniel and Mike went in TOP's car.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKw2O5IsXb
The cars soon left the 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTRJTzhrILm
YG premises and in the car, I couldn't help but feel nervous. What if 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9zTOEjJjYv
things didn't work out like it did yesterday? I hope not. Every now and 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNAGaYQjyYk
then, I would open and check if the teddy bear was still in my purse.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGkT1CJejCB
"Can you you please stop1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9UdFqcYg2
doing that?" Christine asked from the back seat. "You might just drop 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenR9TNKqku
the teddy and lose it in the car."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg6aUe5BLYi
"Stop joking around," I said as I turned to look at Christine.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUfc9g4fQ5s
"Well, then stop getting nervous. We're all here with you so there is nothing to be worried about."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQqDlb0mor
I leaned back on the chair and tried to relax. "You're right," I said. "I need to relax."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjBzSykK9Y
"Don't worry, we're almost there," said Seungri as the car took a turn.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRT7J3cjtsS
"I just want to get this over with."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdo661XAs2t
We were soon packed 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6meAnzFYFI
right outside the café and TOP's car parked right next to us. I took a 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSz4HOLXp00
deep breath. Christine came over and put her hand on my shoulder. I 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB4Pre59b4o
turned to look at her.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyT3CiFOgCG
"Everything is going to be okay," said Christine giving me an encouraging smile. "If anything happens, we'll be here."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ4obM8Uitr
"Thanks," I said with a smile. "I'm glad you guys are all here."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLp3HvpVhVd
Seungri also turned to 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgIUJCXEDf
smile at me. I don't know what I would have done without them. Their 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbMmQuiLr0X
presence here gave me a little comfort. But I felt a small hole in my 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorgiKWFavG
chest and I wished Sam was here too.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJZ2eAnTvJ
I soon got out of the 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhwcLacM3h9
car and there was a sudden chill in the air. Maybe it's because the sun 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5TYyRmf6H
was setting that it started to get cold. I had my purse in my hand and I1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgGPY8hf52
looked towards the café. I hope everything will go as planned.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHpnc3nEnXt
Before I could find my 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Kk1BUXQ3H
way into the café, TOP, Mike and Daniel waved at me through the windows 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxlXYI4P9uO
of TOP's car and giving me a thumbs up. I smiled a little and waved 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKcZUMh34WG
back. At least that gave me the confidence to go ahead.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxIYr6SKeGn
I quickly went in the 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVxmEizzf8
café and when I slowly stepped in, I looked around for Jehan. I spotted 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcE0z1RTbgy
him right next to the huge glass window where we had last sat down 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHq3KRCzOjT
together. He was alone in his smart pressed black suit, as always.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSWEZT4l6X
I slowly approached the 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWERBUsCQeb
table. His eyes never left me since I walked in the café. When I got to 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsVGV49edo
the table, I sat facing him. My heart was beating so fast. I don't know 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpIB5ROeAO1
why I was so scared that things might go wrong and Jehan wouldn't 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFybLG3Oaqp
hesitate to end my life right here.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMaQfHPDqDf
"I'm glad you could make it," said Jehan. "I was almost about to call my driver to come pick you up."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd0lCLmGYGA
"I was practising today," I answered.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmnW7xMM8We
"You look really tired. It could show all over your face."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGkfmHHoD4
"Thanks," I frowned at 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqnKpgVki3m
him. "Can we get this over with? I still have a busy day tomorrow and I 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxThNWVcKt
would like to get this teddy bear off my back."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡurXHkAmoZc
Jehan smirked. "Certainly."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEdXeO1Gr72
I quickly reached out 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVqyLwc48o
for the purse on my lap, opened it and gave him the teddy bear. Jehan 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6J4SKIVka
reached out to take it and I couldn't help but feel relieved.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDEFagPB1oD
"There! You have your teddy," I said. "Can I go now?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBseqAj4o72
"Wait." Jehan held up a finger when I was just about to stand up and leave. I sighed.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡggapnsAax6
"What now?" I complained.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0BykD4ZEN
"I need to check if all the diamonds are in here," said Jehan, shaking the teddy in his other hand.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFBG15FuXFt
"What do you think? That1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXdJ6H6kVN8
I would steal from you?" I was really surprised that he didn't trust 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAt57EtNeix
me. "You pointed a gun to my head in Paris and I have done everything 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPigQgY8iI
you have asked until now. What makes you think I would steal your 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslremiwJsy
diamonds? I have a life to live, may I remind you."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe6SRUlcRSA
Jehan raised an eyebrow 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjsvJ7PP29R
at me. "Nice one, Zoey. You almost had me convinced. But I'm still going1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡME7RuEKVeA
to check. I've to make sure all the diamonds are in here before I make a1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoeK40syd4
fool of myself in front of my clients I'm selling these to."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPOwt0zIE6
"Fine." I folded my arms on the table. "If you don't believe me, then check it yourself. I know I'm innocent."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ82cEeJ9pQ1
"I know you're." Jehan gave me a smile and I looked away facing the window. It was getting really dark outside so fast.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIZWt5UVjEJ
I went back to looking 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3QX9gYBp3a
at Jehan who had laid the little teddy bear on the table and he dug into1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg3otbgw67O
the pockets of his suit and removed a small pocket knife. It didn't 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyTWEdzJGx
surprise me that he carried that thing around.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkbgArRlEg
Jehan slowly laid the 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPF8SJx34U2
blade onto the little teddy's belly and cut through its tiny suit, 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡih5XNz4WAj
dissecting the teddy bear. This reminded me of science class back in 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDis2hSDt7T
high school when we were told to dissect a frog. Doing that was so 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlPLZBzeWI
disgusting that I ended up purking all over Sam's shoes, who was my 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7dXsoYOUId
science partner. This time, it was just cotton stuffing that came out of1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwcrWH15Bhd
the teddy bear.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTIclrH6VkE
Wait. I frowned. This 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡViAV8T6svV
isn't right. I raised an eyebrow when Jehan kept on removing cotton 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3CG20uA38
stuffings and there was no sign of the diamonds. Where were the 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcujrfR4zT0
diamonds!1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhEtIN7kY2F
I stared horrified at 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdQwvLqRfT
the scene on the table. There was tiny cotton stuffings everywhere and 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0LwDrFaVYl
the bear that laid stuffless on the table was a sad site to see because 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTw9Yl6RNq
there was nothing in it. No diamonds.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM1dbKLJ2ZT
I looked up at Jehan and1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSP8L0fbQPC
he was as surprised as I was. His mouth was wide open and he couldn't 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡESE6xmkSBu
stop looking at the dissected teddy. If he kept on looking at it like 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoDnxAfQPwv
that, he was going to end up traumatised.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6zJmhs4pxe
"Je-Jehan," I said 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJVi5d7k3E
softly. Hoping he wouldn't bite at me like a dog with rabies. "Jehan. 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6B7Qnh6owX
I...I have no idea what has just happened, but, there are no diamonds in1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSFQgEoKJ7V
there."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9e2wifHweI
Jean neither moved nor 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnKYAlpJHPa
said a word. I was getting worried. Should I move him to try and snap 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxEoh9jD5zA
him out of it? I didn't know what to do.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9F2Ho2V6CX
But how could this be? 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYP72OZPF8I
Where did the diamonds go? It's not like the teddy bear could just poop 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsr6poheMT
out diamonds since it wasn't alive or anything. Something weird was 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWBMQ9kQzfH
going on. And I wasn't like liking it at all.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlpLfMyDiw
"Where are my diamonds?" Jehan muttered silently, still looking at the scene before him.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZXiIeiqY8v
"I...I don't know," I said shaking my head. I was scared of his reaction and I prepared myself for it.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmcNyFHFQTZ
He banged his fists on 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZANeXsAxh
the table so loudly that he startled not only me, but everyone else in 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNgwo1wJRR
the café. Everyone turned to look at us and I looked around then back at1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZcTlPHTuj
Jehan, whose eyes were as red as a bull's, staring at me.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYFOYTUhWK
"Jehan, chill," I said, putting my hands up to calm him down. "Let's not try to get angry here."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkLSxdpsh5
"Where are my diamonds, Zoey?" This time he didn't shout but the anger in his voice got me shivering.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzFRwLwzuIA
"I don't know. I don't 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj45qEeohW5
know what's going on right now. This is the same teddy bear you sent us.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlYeNaICbYA
I don't know why it doesn't have diamonds in it."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2wVZR2jAaw
"How did the diamonds go missing?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM1Vi1Ltcq1
"How am I supposed to 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe4ZD4waXGo
know? I just kept the teddy for you. Maybe you sent me the teddy without1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ38U53G4III
diamonds in it and you probably never noticed."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡumRZixfvL3
"Don't doubt what I do, Zoey! I made sure I made no mistake."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzaoo6RRwvI
"Okay, chill, I believe you. Look, why don't we try to sort this out calmly? Getting upset won't do us any good."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWKewcealK
Jehan rubbed his 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhMa60tH2l
forehead and sighed as he leaned back further into his seat. He seemed 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUEYi1gy9H
to have calmed down when he looked at the teddy bear again.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIOIasaJIKT
"I need my diamonds back, Zoey."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqqD1FWFh54
"I know. You've said that like almost a hundred times now."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJuhGnI0yjK
"Let's not joke around here. What happened? Why does this bear have no diamonds in it?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhKpIJClnyD
"I didn't do anything. I swear. That teddy was just the way it was eversince you sent it."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFd8VEkKb8L
"Then why doesn't it have diamonds in it?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXiNWD7sQFR
"I don't know."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVRiht31nFs
Jehan looked at me with an eyebrow raised. "Who else had this teddy apart from you?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7zBKKK16P
"Ummm," I looked down 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNfBKkYgDd
and played around with my fingers. "Uh....I wasn't the one who had been 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUexiG5xyL3
taking care of the teddy bear this whole time."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC9Ziqa315B
"What?" Jehan sounded surprised. "What do you mean?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8M1baEVhJu
"I didn't have the teddy bear with me at the hotel the whole time," I said, looking at him fully in the eyes now.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIxvTh7O9l4
"Who had the teddy bear?" Jehan leaned closer, his eyes not leaving mine.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOh5gHE2v8L
"Lee had it before I took it from her yesterday."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6eHmRhXE3
"Oh, my gosh!" Jehan 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2vzktWErvQ
covered his face with his hands and I could see this wasn't going too 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrc8kTt6ucE
well for him. "Could she have the diamonds?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzDB2eMXfR
"I don't think so. Lee 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfEDucc4Isj
is an honest person. If she did notice there were diamonds in the teddy,1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzVpTFRvWT1
she would've said something. No way. She can't have the diamonds."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmS8MvMcS21
"Then how do we explain all this! She was the last person to have the teddy, correct?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdNOAh4pKH6
"You're right. But if she did find out about us and all this diamond business, she wouldn't keep that to herself. I know Lee."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWf2OsVHZo8
"Maybe you don't know Lee well enough. If this is the same teddy I had sent, where could the diamonds be?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxcqBRDJUCU
"Maybe this is just another teddy bear and the actual one with the diamonds is still at the hotel."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDxoZ58bO35
After I said that, Jehan1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4SfIK4Nyps
quickly took the dissected teddy bear in his hands and looked at it 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKIvteehbU
carefully. He turned the teddy, looking at its back side and tearing the1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuqEFdsK30e
suit away. I wondered what he was looking for because he had a serious 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7OYRrEHYK
look on his face.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXR8kfgk81
"You're right," said Jehan. "This is definitely another teddy bear and not the one I sent you."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzVz3UB6IA
"Wait, how do you know?" I asked.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfdsysQxTGV
"I remember one of my 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZPVqNMDpR
men who sewed the teddy bear after putting diamonds in it at the back. 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhW4KmYG3WG
There should have been some stitching here but this one doesn't."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGrNurdQ61
"Ha!" I snapped my fingers. "I knew I was right!"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIEkfkuhdbL
"Don't snap your fingers and be all happy about this," said Jehan, back to giving me that angry look. "I need that teddy, now!"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhExBcTWXcW
"Huh? I can't start 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4PvH031yC
searching for it now. It would look suspicious. And I can't start asking1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEAmIpyjAYL
Lee if she bought another teddy just like this one. She already knows 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcKhZWo69j4
that the bear is missing."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6OWENtpL0N
"Then maybe, Lee isn't the only person you should be asking."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO8kCRhpvVF
"What do you mean?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2KzQpOF1oo
"Someone else must know where the other teddy bear is. Your group members perhaps."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpSXpKRLHhF
"No. I highly doubt it. Lee must have bought another teddy and we just didn't know about it."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡceYEipTAaA
"Now that, makes no 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkL8zirxbUP
sense. If I were you, I would go back and find out what happened to that1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAY6kaIyefE
teddy and ask around for it. I'll need that teddy tomorrow."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFvNj1qQmT
"Tomorrow! Are you nuts!"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjV2EFwW3fC
"Maybe I am because I'm desperate to have those diamonds back."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLfEozMw4xy
"I might not be around tomorrow. I have a music video to shoot."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzyghEfvDRN
"Find those diamonds and you will be scott free, Zoey. Or do you want everyone to mourn over you when they find you dead?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9hF4edwmCp
I completely forgot that1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbTCNpYaPUt
I was being threatened by this guy. Though his threats didn't scare me 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtD1YuuiQSH
anymore, I just had to abide to everything. Who knows, he might not have1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbsBLfaolUB
me killed, but he could hurt the others and it would be all my fault.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4U01VbMuPj
"Okay. I'll see what I can do."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2YyjF3Fl41
Jehan gave me a smile. 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwE4ZwsUm4E
"That's more I like it. I would start working on this soon if I were 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZPhxUtg27P
you. Try your best to find the bear by tomorrow, will you?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ86iWgKsUv6
I nodded my head and 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1JB84zlhW0
that made him smile even more. He soon stood up from his seat and looked1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz6JoXmsheI
down at me. I looked back at him without a saying a word.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvFwPhrjjvA
"See you tomorrow," said Jehan and he quickly walked out of the café.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTnW7En6TPJ
I sat there as I buried 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeiE5EeEsNb
my face in my hands, thinking of what to do. Again, everything was 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3u8R0q01cW
ruined. First, the interruption from TOP and Seungri yesterday. Now, the1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNmpGT4OV3
teddy bear had been swapped with another. My life couldn't get any 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqUllwJ0VZ1
worse than this. What was going on? Who was putting me into so much 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl7mQD9oQDC
drama that might just ruin my life?1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMg2XF9Svi
I hadn't noticed the bell of the café ringing because I felt a hand on my shoulder and when I looked up, there stood Christine.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnXGr9wc8Lj
"Zoey, what happened?" Christine asked, as she turned to look on what was on the table.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7348P85Ba
I could hear footsteps 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOSMEygvYS
behind me. The others had come in the café too. They all looked worried 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUPvmMfMtw0
when they saw the look on my face.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHpaW8DmsB
Christine sat where Jehan had been a few minutes ago and looked at the tattered teddy bear on the table.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKN1Gf5FQG
"What's going on?" Daniel asked. "And what happened to Mr Teddy?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpgCWJaH5T
"Jehan didn't look happy when he left the café," said TOP. "Didn't he get his diamonds?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTwNgdd3dA1
"No," I answered. "He didn't."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMMm6p5vqH
"What?" Seungri sounded surprised. "What do you mean he didn't get his diamonds?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtLPPgoUqyc
"This teddy isn't the teddy he had sent us," I answered. "Someone swapped the teddy with another."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfq6STTpfD
Mike shook his head. "But who? We didn't know what that teddy bear had until now, so, it couldn't be anyone of us."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeh3XBFUsX6
"And what about Lee?" 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBIhvZSKYa
Christine asked. "She was the one who last had the teddy before Zoey 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzSoboGJbXg
took it. But what doesn't make any sense is why she would want to get 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyb1hABeE6n
another teddy when she had asked me last night where Mr Teddy had gone 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9B2SCXd53
to."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3RplWtOvLx
"This is bad," I said, 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6HRhAehui
leaning my elbows on the table and holding my head. "Whoever has the 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ifQBdX9H6
teddy, knew what must have been going on this whole time."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYei8mnlgNL
"Ya, but who could have known?" Seungri asked. "It couldn't be Lee because all she knows is that the teddy has gone missing."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJRUGkRTwA0
"Maybe Sam has it," said Mike.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB73x8ItHT4
We all turned to look at Mike with grim looks on our faces.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOgP0Dnw2LV
"Sam?" I wondered for a 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVWwv5MA3O
little while. "Why would Sam have the teddy? And if she did, how could 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSE7IhC5Hc
she have swapped it with the other one?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjqQU3fm9T
"Okay, wait," said TOP. 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVnUHOgNLI4
"This is all too confusing. Does Sam even have any idea or clue as to 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ErwyVwKo9
what's really going on in the first place?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzPnfUNs1B
"I doubt it," I said 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1LAesulzPA
shaking my head. "If she knew what was going on she would have 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF25g3kUnKO
confronted me. And besides, she was also at the mall yesterday and would1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVaojKsAjmq
have probably seen Jehan and I together. But she didn't."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHrUYoQoWO
TOP and Seungri looked 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMhZtfpp0k6
at each other after I said that. What was up with them? The look they 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWkFbSqCMWx
gave each other made me feel that something was up but I quickly brushed1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWZ73UZ4f7
it away.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡunWcKSWcTG
"I highly doubt it too,"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qBcLE6f6K
said Daniel. "If she knew Zoey was into some kind of serious trouble, 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyIP4UXQHNN
she would have asked us about it."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGNrhhkggq
"That's true," said 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ZcQpAc2qt
Mike. "Come to think of it, I don't think Sam has it. For her to swap 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8oE8yF58Z
the teddy, she would have bought it from somewhere."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqoJnE3LTxY
"And I checked out the 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Caq9mOdTd
shopping bags, Lee came with yesterday when she went shopping with Sam. 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK7lEg0kaBY
There was no sign of a small teddy in any of them," said Christine.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ95w04Fl3e
"She must have bought it when she was with G-Dragon," I said.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTsa7ePEuD
"No, I highly doubt it,"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6UpbY0VHs
said TOP. "There are some dedicated fans who followed those two 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHICN8ImL0c
yesterday, describing which store they went to and taking pictures. They1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9OAHUdXpC5
said nothing about them entering a toy store."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT7UfOp9iwm
"Now that's what I call a dead end," said Daniel.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡELAmMlj3bs
"Fine, so Lee and Sam have been cancelled on the list," said Seungri. "Who else could have swapped the teddies?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHSzEqveyw
"Collins?" Mike asked.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDuGACFuMgj
"Ha! No way," I said, almost laughing in a such a serious situation. "How could he have known about Jehan and the diamonds?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1o0ZgyigHf
"Mmmm, good point," said Seungri. "He's been really busy these past few days."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA2DP9YShhW
"But who knows? Maybe he1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPxvRfdyXa
has been spying on me this whole time and I haven't noticed. He 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡekSgxc6Pul
considers me the black sheep that has to be kept an eye on at all 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOglQpnFl0a
times."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKIdA0dUXi
"You're definitely the black sheep, Zoey," said Mike.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡztFR3BI7aa
"Hey! May I remind you, I'm not the only one here who gets into trouble here."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3JpIjkGcK7
"Okay, guys, focus," said TOP. "What makes you think Collins might have been the one who swapped the teddies?"1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDLKQ2zM9nH
Daniel suddenly snapped his fingers. "I remember now. Yesterday when he came back with Sam, something happened."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOvihK8YVh
"Wait. Collins was with Sam?" I asked.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCMGJ6j96Ou
"He was the one who went1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0qLZ5iU3Sq
to pick her up from the mall," Daniel answered. "Back to what I was 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGE1XNCcy5
saying, Collins had something delivered to him at the hotel. He even 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ah8Dezehn
went to get it himself from the delivery man who was coming up the 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR372fDUF1A
elevator."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡudrQ38e54j
"What was it?" We all asked Daniel, looking at him anxiously.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq7ncffHSd4
"It was a small box. And if you ask me, it was kind of like the one Jehan had sent that teddy bear in."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItBNh4SDFo
"Gosh, it's been Collins this whole time," said Christine.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOpdnOBVKU
"I couldn't be too sure," I said. "But after what Daniel has said, I don't know what to believe."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjtiyjQcUj
"We really have to go," said Seungri. "We can't stay here."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBhXZuwzCXj
"You're right," I said 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVomp8RAVEj
as I stood up from the seat taking my purse. "I've to search for that 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2KMUAzZMqz
teddy if I want to make it out alive tomorrow."1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQj7KAiJ4Jy
"Wait, we can't leave all this here," said Christine, taking what was left of the teddy bear in her hands.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwwx6t5kkp
We all walked out of the1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2bN2ZtJS3Z
café, hopping no one had heard our conversation. There were a few 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6JNh0KQ9H
people in the café and I highly doubt if they really heard anything.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzK5pmTIfZ
While I was in the car 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3HK7Rv6mP1
with Seungri driving and the others in the other car behind us, I was so1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfuPASHpUuF
troubled about the missing teddy. I couldn't help thinking that Collins1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLc8kZ0fHGJ
is involved. But that didn't make any sense. As much as I wanted to 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WGol9I3oP
believe that Collins could have swapped the teddies, I shook my head at 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpeYhNvhn1X
the thought of it. Maybe it really wasn't Collins.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXuLGI5SkA1
If it isn't him, then 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwKJWQMChim
who? It couldn't be Lee because she had the teddy with her the whole 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWntHR3Hqja
time and she couldn't buy another teddy for no reason. And I couldn't 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ZnMycvVRJ
picture Sam doing anything like that either because I had never seen her1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmRsGmTFqjO
near that teddy after Jehan sent it to us that day.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcbjh1uRu6L
What if I had the wrong 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡouiXmsFTdL
teddy the whole time and I had never known till now? All this was too 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUnlnFZobR3
confusing. Who swapped the teddies? And when did the swapping ever take 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOnsfRg17Ca
place without any of us noticing in the first place?1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4SrojE8SEP
I hope I could be able 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMe7ZnTFwe
to find the teddy soon. Jehan might threaten to kill me, but I was 1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfS7E11Ovbk
pretty sure he would try to hurt the others too. And I wouldn't let that1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUNdGO5JnI
happen.
