Zoey's P.O.V1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9CJhCUjeqs
Waking up this Monday 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUTRrtPIhb
morning was hectic. I didn't want to get out of bed, but in one way or 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOpYmWbS88
another, I would have to. I lay awake, thinking. I didn't want to face 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUKlMxe1Ea
off the challenges for today knowing that one of them was dealing with 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqiCkrgdcIo
Jehan. Since I still have the teddy bear, I wasn't as free as I expected1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdzz4rbbca
myself to be.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEO1GkDLGF
I couldn't stop 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7sHq3AMTKP
wondering what Seungri and TOP were doing at the mall yesterday. As much1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Tx5GHrRaK
as I wanted to believe that it was a coincidence, I couldn't help but 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJa6v5v8W6x
feel that something was wrong.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxxPrikGx7S
Could they have known 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqWs6IqQjg3
about Jehan? And if they did, then how? I shook my head. Maybe all that 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubgDjq3Bx6
was nothing but a coincidence and I was just being paranoid. If they 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjcmYV0cABp
really had found out about Jehan, they would have been asking questions 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwyDbdkp56S
about him and what he does while we were shopping. But they didn't. We 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQ5TiKR5Vh
just had our usual conversation.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgB9yH7msx
I brushed off all those 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQ8kRuhL6C
thoughts aside when the alarm on my phone rang telling me to get up. The1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFL8tOleS85
last time I had ever put up an alarm was the morning of my last day of 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEqcyyEsq8
high school. Eversince I became a musician, I never put up an alarm when1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTrufkD8cup
I knew I had someone around to wake me up. Like Sam.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVdrR64Oe5
But now that she wasn't 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2G97XTCQdG
here, I had to wake up on my own. Most of the time, I would do so 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJKWb91AqJg
without her help. But when I overslept, she was always there to wake me.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSOkSIWeFh
Anyway, right now, I was just too troubled in my sleep that I must have1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUq5qSwIsL
woken up early before the alarm rang.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Nl13dwAaU
I sat up on my bed and 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbqzXMjQVa
switched off the alarm. I checked the empty bed beside mine and I 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR5kjArCoDx
couldn't help but realise how much I miss Sam. I don't know why I was 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡroVNxAPGHk
feeling this way, but I hated the fact that I was missing her so bad. 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMMJlG809MU
Not after what happened yesterday at the mall and all over social media.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaisnmh5a6D
After seeing her with 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz5qWXckzKC
G-Dragon yesterday broke my heart further into tiny pieces. As much as I1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB0OToHxRrg
knew she was only there just to try and resolve things with G-Dragon, I1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xYJAHWDfM
was filled with fury seeing the two of them together. And to make 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYExjxg8K2
matters worse, after I had left the mall, I went online and there were 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡedsGrQjEUv
pictures of the two everywhere. They were a trending topic for the whole1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAjGnjgg6A2
day. That left me devastated.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFluYx6NfHv
I couldn't stop looking 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovIp9ISeRP
at pictures online even when I came back to the hotel. I read so many 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDaTBgziwoP
comments. As much as there were so many haters around (like myself), so 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vtIB5UJXc
many people couldn't stop talking about how adorable the two looked 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡANshp66p46
together. I couldn't help but admit to myself that they were right. They1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmSLqx3TXn
really did make a cute couple. And that left me envious. I wished it 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWnihW44wTJ
was G-Dragon and I. Not G-Dragon and Sam.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPuWSIwHmQn
That sent me boiling to a1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3CENoAEpeB
point where I almost threw my phone away. When Christine came to see me1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡequ5jZ7x77
in my room and found me in an angry fit, I told her how painful I felt 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfPiHJuYhA
seeing G-Dragon and Sam together.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKbcDcf3bFQ
Christine had told me to1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡINuc8oL9in
cool down and that I shouldn't be jealous. She told me that Sam was 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqJwo2XBix
only with G-Dragon because she was only trying to resolve things. I told1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBSjv6tGLq8
her that I already knew that. Christine quickly left me to myself when 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZI0uza2ep2
she realised that she couldn't calm me down. So I was alone for the rest1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXa5VVjYWbU
of the day, not speaking to anyone. I didn't even join the others for 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VQyToCLUZ
supper. I had ordered for my supper to be taken up to my room.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqstAcB1t1M
And now, I had to face 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡThNGPf04OQ
another challenge of seeing everyone today, most especially Sam, since 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgcXvMPIoQ
we have to finish up on the dance routine and start working on the music1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ95srPU8eHH
video as soon as possible. I have to put up with all this today when I 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXPlNaIeNL
was still so upset.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXVBfYEBmmP
I quickly got out of bed and went in the showers, hoping the cool water would cool down all the boiling anger in me.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgkllk4CTq6
After I was done, I 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRIyW8vPCUu
quickly dressed up. And carrying my purse with me, I went to meet the 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jTaLXwmeW
others at the dining table for breakfast.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8uXrHbFLv
I found them already 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7XU450CEb
settled. When I came to sit, everyone mouthed out a "good morning" to 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7TCyQ9NI1N
me, except Sam. And I replied back with a smile on my face.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4pgZohfYN
I felt a little awkward 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjbOjA3V2lS
when I looked at Sam who sat across the table next to Collins and hadn't1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxXQkABR9R
said a word. She was busy with her breakfast, her usual bacon, eggs and1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhqNburpgY
toast with juice. I realised she hadn't even looked up at me once and 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6f6nr9EsaK
that also felt weird.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6IeHBS4isL
I know that she and I 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0HYjpAxtBY
aren't talking to each other at the moment, but I expected her to say a 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3oI8UrEiex
"good morning" or even look at me to acknowledge that I was around. She 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡucI8rrWcQW
was one person even if we ever had an argument, she would at least try 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWzLpqTnZIT
to say something to me. The fact that she didn't greet me, made me feel 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1ORImRnNb
like something was wrong.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTR3myowaK
I poured myself a cup of1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmiIx6OiwG
coffee, trying to ignore what I was feeling at the moment. I got some 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdfQrhaYNmT
slices of toast and ate my breakfast.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOorRLOBSM
"Hey, Sam," said Mike, who sat right next to her. "Have you seen what people have been saying about you and G-Dragon?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrON82GN4e
My heart almost skipped a1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3J8veUleHZ
beat and I almost choked on my coffee. What was Mike getting at? I know1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI87CC02HrY
he does things just to annoy me sometimes, but this time, he's gone way1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UQoHUQuH5
too far. I was over here! Hello!1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHNSfR2FXnT
"You don't have to remind me," Sam said as she looked at her brother. "I've decided not to go online today."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrVnDAmvsl
"For one who doesn't like attention, you might just disappear off the face of the earth," said Collins.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCsAQL7bWF7
"I can do that," said Sam, staring up at the ceiling obviously building castles in the air.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCvZvEheBeO
"I have no doubt about it."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFVdRmMviEB
"But I don't see why you1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2YbVG0Lp8
have to," said Daniel. "Just because people make stories about you and 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuctkuOHNXQ
G-Dragon dating, doesn't mean that you are."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9FUK92SZO
"One thing about fans is1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOv095mgmoY
that they can make a story so believable, even those who don't know 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42E1y66ZqA
what's going on, might end up believing it," said Christine.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rytBN3YT4
"I know," said Lee. 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGVN3COp7r
"Right now, some k-pop news sites are already taking this to the next 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5PbHnh0Yxj
level. But they all say they couldn't be too sure about it until they 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9WJWxspDi
get an official statement from you and G-Dragon."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWAv3dr13Q
"Wow, that's serious," said Sam.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk1Z6ZUUsTj
"But right now, we have no time for interviews," said Collins. "We have a music video to work on."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqjqmxb37q8
"I can work with that," said Sam, with a smile on her face.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wCwOwaaYF
"Alright, guys, finish your breakfast. You know the drill."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyVTswtEWqk
"Aye, aye," said Daniel.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJDOZrnOoW
"Well, you're quiet today, Zoey," said Christine as she looked at me. She sat directly across from me on the table.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaNT3YdBrOA
"Do you have a problem with that?" I asked, eyeing Christine.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWv02XsnbuW
"You're just too quiet, that's all."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2mZEWiGm5
"You should be quiet more often," said Collins as he got up from the table. "It kind of suits you."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡusOPrSJGH1
I frowned at Collins. "Thanks. I'll try doing so more often. That's if I really want to."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnKAxSqFzU5
"Now that's the Zoey I know," said Mike, raising his eyebrow at me and smiling.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTE68D0H1XW
I stuck my tongue out at1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfgUE9f0JJq
him but he continued to smile mockingly nonetheless. I noticed that the1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSN9M0qpQxq
others were laughing and smiling at the whole thing, except Sam. She 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JDrAnB1CR
still wasn't looking in my direction.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV85LEccjqr
Soon after breakfast, we1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡanpekXTntc
left for YG. In the SUV, Sam sat at the back with her brothers. We were1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvvrdThxLpy
all chatting happily in the car but she was quiet the whole way. She 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ97s3GhTA7F
was like that nowadays, always lost in thought. I wondered what she 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡts3Sv6bXmf
could be thinking about. Sam was one person who never really shared what1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡir0a9cPftN
she thought. When you asked her about it, she would usually say 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4tryge3Npw
"nothing" and say no more. But if she really wanted to share with you, 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5TsjeZFssB
she would.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHrKtjvkpe
We arrived at YG and we 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡstVGa1LgVq
found ourselves back at the dance studio we were practising in on 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqSMJGb4i2m
Saturday. We found our dance instructor and all the BigBang members with1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPhp1OY7LpD
the rest of the backup dancers, waiting for us.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNraq6gxJQ
When everyone was 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckZcyVD0lc
exchanging greetings with each other, G-Dragon didn't respond to me when1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtOAVmsbPZ
I said "hi" to him. Given with what happened yesterday, I bet he was 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3bKb9WNIs
still mad at me for how I behaved towards Sam. He didn't even want to 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1D8lLnoyfi
hang out with us soon after Sam had left.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7tLwLoQcG
He not responding to me 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7eZgFJfhvQ
felt awkward and I longed for him to at least give me some attention. He1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbb9mFNFVyO
didn't say "hi" to Sam either but just nodded his head when she greeted1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRFv3a7nzaC
him. At least that was acknowledging someone even if they weren't 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnqRDMbK6ot
talking to each other. And he was staring at her the whole time even 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3v1uePj5Nj
when she wasn't looking. I thought of throwing a shoe at him, but I just1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8UsAyTJxov
looked away instead.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5xbfJ4YK4
We went straight to 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq5dlEaJxpF
practising for almost a good five hours. And those proved to be the 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoFMLMRdhuz
hardest five hours of my life. Since the dance routine starts with 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaSI51y5b4d
G-Dragon and I, it was really hard having him so close. I realised that I1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmIimCUou5t
still had feelings for him. At some point during practise, I almost 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡupQM2hfysg
hugged him, but I brought myself not to. And that wasn't the worst part.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUGX9AQjmki
During pratice, I 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqgX6KiXfH
noticed that G-Dragon still couldn't take his eyes off Sam. This was 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGODhFaEMKZ
getting to the point where I wanted to scream at him to snap out of it. I1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8yst3SnH9Q
wondered what he saw in Sam and that sent me thinking.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9ookzRKXV
G-Dragon wasn't the only1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoenlXDPyU
one who liked Sam. Come to think of it, Daesung also liked her. 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfhermbTfu4
Probably even Seungri and TOP, given that Seungri had a beautiful crown 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrBVvqrcB0
made just for her and TOP flirts with her whenever he gets the chance 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxw638DzgU
to. Taeyang already had Hyo-rin and always takes Sam like a sister. What1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdDp7h64FlN
did Sam have that even most of the BigBang members like her so much?1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEls3Ur7h9a
As her best friend, I 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8ch5ykSrC
should be aware of her qualities. She was nice and friendly to whoever 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZFE2oGCiC
approached her. She is very pretty and had a great body, though she was 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡulDoZw62HS
never ever fully aware of her physical beauty. She always thought she 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN0khiz3vaS
was like any other ordinary girl but she was more than that.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0zFnITwOom
She is also smart, 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsL0V3br2Mv
caring and always understanding. She is a great leader and one who 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4RIvkFfVL
always had our backs whenever we needed it. I don't know how many times 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOyxaADaOMe
she had always tried to get The Toxins out of trouble. I agree that even1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡapYUsRpDCE
if it looked like we don't appreciate what she does, we really do.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhMbiGi4zF
Sam has a lot of good 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR0hfNrzb69
qualities. Maybe that's why she is liked and loved by everyone. Even her1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR38SIoySUU
fans. She is honest, when she wanted to. She is also a pretty good 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu0IoKfvjdW
liar, only when it was necessary to do so. And she is one who wouldn't 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDDFvb85Qc
want to hurt anyone around her.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ANYQQnhvz
Realising this made me 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0nEcgJrqQG
feel a little guilty as I looked at Sam who was dancing in front of me 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5H6TgtWABD
with Taeyang beside her. I looked at her face and she had this smile 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzyaHTgVQbW
that reflected her innocence. I realised that I had been giving Sam a 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf96sUWeLCP
real hard time after I found out G-Dragon likes her and not me. She is 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHaZ0ydYzf6
my best friend and would do nothing to hurt me. I know she was only 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ73fjtctHeP
looking out for me like she always does, but I am just too ignorant to 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡciSF6Uw4TK
realise it till now.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJTNXqGUvUP
"Wait, hold on a minute guys," said the choreographer. We all stopped dancing as instructed.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlV6BMabsUb
"Zoey, you aren't 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43GFXc6SrT
concentrating," said the choreographer as he looked at me. "This is the 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd0uLfbfnBg
second time you have made the same mistake."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8LTJdlsrDU
"Oh, sorry," I said, scratching the back of my head feeling embarrassed. "I'll try to be more cautious next time."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ntitbZQuH
"Okay. Let's continue from where we left off."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14lzuu5qMg
It was lunch the time we1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe4BiTeqVKe
broke off for a break. The choreographer left and the others were 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZYRAKQMuJ
talking to some of the backup dancers. I noticed Sam at the corner of 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM1vLovAV9u
the room with Christine and some of the backup dancers talking. It 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKXxVPFL2v
looked like they were having one hell of a funny conversation because 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZWzzwZAPm
they were all laughing.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvhKvQ5jkc
"Hey, why are you here all alone?" came TOP as he came to stand right next to me.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvbAM6qPfLI
"Nothing," I replied, looking down at my sneakers. "I just want to be alone today."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEsOADI7Dle
"Still not talking to Sam?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1JhMLQj7B
"Nope."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9UIMcLRmn
TOP's lips rose to a smile. "You really are stubborn."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFoiTM5lWe
"Too bad it's in my DNA." I smirked.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKvwCqgRW9
"And how long do you think you're going to put up with it?" TOP folded his arms as he looked at me.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbOxuOK41X8
"Maybe till we go home." I shrugged my shoulders.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUKOh9YRZW
"I doubt it. Judging by the way you performed today, you looked really preoccupied that you made several mistakes."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZaYhwdly30
"Being preoccupied is Sam's thing."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Uig1nPhHB
"I know. But you aren't 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDl2r6V3ez
yourself, that's for sure. The Zoey I know wouldn't be here all alone. 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qWKzkL7Fj
You would be chit chatting like you always do."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPUOamaHW4B
"What if I just want to be alone for today?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiIn4cB1yRG
"It's okay. Everyone has those kinds of days. But you make it look like being alone sometimes is a bad thing."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYOhr1V4dt
I frowned. "Why?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspdraSAcNL
"Because you look miserable."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLf9IW4sFyJ
I didn't expect that coming from TOP. My mouth was agape as I looked at him.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzyiBWstfh6
"Miserable!"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz6PipNCLQY
"Ya." TOP nodded his head. "It clearly shows."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZC8scs7yZ8
I thought for a moment 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqkQCq0pDl
and went back to looking at Sam and Christine with the backup dancers. 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjuR7ju3lce
Mike, Daesung, Seungri and Daniel had also formed their own little 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡArY5AVJuUj
circle and were laughing and chatting too. Taeyang and G-Dragon were 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0NHsm1IbS
with some of the backup dancers, having a normal chat.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuVh0ysdkmL
Seeing all this in front1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ635ZD59VIt
of me made me realise that TOP is right. I am definitely miserable. By 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtLWrLpIwoO
now, I would be with the others, chatting. But here I was, all alone. 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1684VekB2
Until TOP came to talk to me.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6CjWJmPb9z
"I guess you're right," I said. "I am miserable."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7COEpZnCwh
"Don't worry about it. Aren't you going to resolve things with Sam?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9Na2ZoL3J
"I don't know," I said 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNsMT1eZbfM
as I looked at Sam who was laughing out loud. "I'm still mad at her, but1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7AT9Hg1h3
something in me says that I can't stay like this for long."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPt7m185imI
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.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIzMOadcu6o
"I felt so bad about it," I said, shaking my head.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJLwdJ97jBf
"Then why don't you talk to her?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25NqLKD7lR
"Pfft!" I rolled my eyes. "Why should I? Sam always does all the talking."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3hLKGkoN9M
"Really? You think Sam would do that this time around? Besides, she wasn't really at fault with all this."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiTerzwywRQ
"I know."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5RADIPVNWF
"So? Are you going to try and talk to her yourself?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGO3tWzaGtC
"I'll think about it."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8FkURoysH
"Hey, guys," came Seungri, suddenly calling out to everyone in the room. "Who wants pizza?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsaMVmDrRvg
Everyone muttered out "me!" really loud. Seungri smiled and said he would bring the pizza.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOlI9bIXVS
"Mind if you guys can help me?" Seungri asked as he came up to TOP and I.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKlRZk7C9cR
"Sure," I said. I really needed to get out of here for a while and breathe.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUw9WuIwKLz
The three of us went out1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rHcjTZ5R4
of the room and headed to the elevator to take us downstairs. Seungri 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAAsqpRRcYV
already had his phone out calling the pizza parlour to take the order.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVViWk5Wyb0
As soon as we reached the ground floor, we stuck around in the lobby waiting for the pizza.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Dwc68DXZr
"I'm so hungry," said Seungri, staring at his watch.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtT3t0i8s0Z
"Chill, you just ordered1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0yTguYhk6
pizza like right now," said TOP who was sitting right next to me on one1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB81bSnmB0V
of the chairs in the waiting area of the lobby.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVHRgBOxnB
"But I'm so hungry."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4pAzrrkvkH
"Trust me, you aren't 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbubyBXcyr
the only one," I said as I looked at Seungri who was still standing. 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhSV9xFZ78m
"Sit down or else you're going to drain the last remaining blood you 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpC1Mt5E00A
have."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTqg0WP3Jaj
"Well, that's mean," said Seungri as he sat next to me. "What's up with you?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtJRP3QYKt
"Nothing," I said as I folded my arms.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi4KtouoX9p
"She's cranky, don't mind her," said TOP.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSCmufbYMEX
"I'm not cranky. Just having an awful day."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5xnW15aZ6
"Ya, we can see that," said Seungri with a smirk on his face.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZEdvCbN7yZ
I didn't say anything as1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Wvr7UiR8d
I shook my head. All of the sudden, I felt my phone vibrate against my 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDx5uBD0Oa2
thigh in the pocket of my sweat pants. I took out my phone. Jehan was 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDpzNslrk7
calling.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgC3LvroaLK
"Isn't it that French guy we met yesterday at the mall?" TOP asked, looking at my phone screen.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlvXPxrwzJF
"Can you please not look!" I said as I turned the phone screen away from TOP's eyes.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgBCDBAv5x
"Okay, well you better answer that call."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWkB0He8dLi
I stood from the chair and answered Jehan's call when I was a few feet away from the two.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpVW4e7oE4
"Hello," I answered.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOrtVMbDEzG
"Hey, Zoey," said Jehan. "Are you busy today?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJerYJBAMDh
"Ya, I'm very busy," I answered. "Why?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSMZvnOSFV
"We have to meet today, ASAP."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuawX21AiKu
"But I can't. I have a lot to do today and I don't think I'll manage to meet with you."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2BO7I2Cnjm
"I don't care. I need that teddy bear today. Not tomorrow, but today."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkzboRt3zX
I knew Jehan was going 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAoryh3qntV
to call and demand for the teddy bear. Luckily, I carried my purse with 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡij2E9HFuyj
the teddy bear in it. I hadn't removed it from my purse since yesterday 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ICP4QBXOH
and I checked to see if it was still in there this morning. The purse 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqlWYSesKB
was upstairs in the dance studio.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSty78JlYM
"Okay, what time do you want to get the teddy bear?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4f9M90FJ9u
"I'm coming to YG to get it."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9fWEZkCEpj
"What!" I was horrified and equally surprised. "No way. You can't come here."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVYg5AbUOue
"Fine. If you have a better idea, then call me or text in the next thirty minutes. I have to get that teddy today."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPH8Fvg8qBj
"You don't have to remind me," I snarled.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡviKgvrCQ2q
He cut the call and I 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpTLHL6NJ0U
looked at my phone like I was ready to throw it out of the lobby through1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOatlZQT5pv
the open entrance doors. This was bad. Real bad. He wanted to come here1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmvsIvqrZwo
to get the teddy. That was going to be dangerous. If anyone were to see1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDIUgFGHMx8
him they would start to ask questions.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRSM4u5rGL
"Zoey," came Seungri's voice behind me.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqqkeOngcWg
I turned around and there stood Seungri and TOP staring at me.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTvChZiPBT
"What?" I asked.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjm12p0gkMb
"Was that Jehan you were talking to?" TOP asked.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJmbayHAstS
"Um, ya. Is there a problem?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQkDasPzAuh
"You two didn't seem to be having a normal conversation," said Seungri. "It sounded like you were arguing or something."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJP80vwurj
"Arguing? Pfft. No," I gave out a small laugh trying to hide my fear. "It was just some silly misunderstanding."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNarq85dSUq
"Come on, Zoey," said TOP. "That was no ordinary misunderstanding and I know an argument when I see one."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKW0fctkYzH
"Guys, it's nothing. You're worrying for no reason."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDsSSIbNTIW
"Oh, ya? Then why were you talking about that teddy bear then? It's that small cute teddy he had sent you, right?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvahEIkqStM
Dang it! I was cornered 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWLGENxiZr
now. They had heard about the teddy. I couldn't come up with a lie. If 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPldxIWyYsi
anything, I'm a terrible liar. Looks like the truth will always come to 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5kTOi1AjYM
light no matter how much you try to hide it.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLmqrwWoGx
"Tell us, Zoey," said Seungri softly. "It can show on your face that something is wrong."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡepkGYFaAmi
I sighed as I looked down on the floor. "Fine. But don't tell anyone."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfwFo5WXx8I
"Okay. Now tell us what's going on," said TOP.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0l1luT4Al
We went back to settle down on the chairs. We were at a reasonable distance away from the receptionist so I could talk quietly.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVNyQpSjAdg
I told them everything 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrNHDTM5UXO
from what happened in Paris till now. They listened carefully and hadn't1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhZF6sP1ji
said a word until I finished the whole story.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡszh9XQqhnE
"Have you told anyone about all this?" Seungri asked.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSRk4PXw1Z
"Just you two," I answered.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOMv9nUYXjN
"Wow, this is serious," said TOP, trying to take it all in. "He's a diamond smuggler?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA1lYEIkdNQ
"Surprising, right?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZcfhxbI4qu
"He seemed so nice when we met him," said Seungri.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvGKK0w4GX
"We should involve the police," said TOP.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAOnmp2jU5Z
"No! We can't!"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRO6ekWu05Z
"Why?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP9BSBWPB02
"You know word goes out 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMfHgLVBCC
fast. The next thing we know, it's going to be all over social media and1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKtcexKhEa
might give The Toxins a bad name. I would rather do this quietly."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy24go3YDfs
"And how are you so sure he isn't going to use you again?" Seungri asked.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5j5ZXRNWnP
"He assured me that this1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0L7bLmudY
will be the last time he will ever use me to do any of his dirty 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzTqBingwkF
business. I just have to give him the teddy bear and that's it."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZQ76ICGbA
"Give who the teddy bear?" came Christine's voice.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO5vtcl8ylr
The three of us turned 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyVLwm73P6k
and we saw Christine standing a few feet away from us. We hadn't heard 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorxhJ6Emmn
the elevator doors open nor her footsteps. How did she get here unheard?1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiK4hoCToVt
"Christine, you're here?" I raised my eyebrows.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkgge1uYR4
"Ya, I came to check up on you guys since some of us are really hungry," said Christine.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZMoZOdaG33
"The delivery guy hasn't arrived yet," said Seungri with a smile.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI2NRXP2vxY
"What's this about some guy and a teddy bear?" Christine asked as she looked at me.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wdMlFGmcH
"Ummm, it's nothing, Christine," I said, waving my hand in the air. "Just talking about some random stuff."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWg1ZX8VKh
"Random stuff involving a1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmLfzvVLyM
teddy bear?" Christine shook her head at me as she folded her arms. "I 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLpUy6UBJN
clearly heard you talking about giving some guy a teddy bear and that 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyd2JQ59qyi
you won't have to do his dirty business anymore. I know you're hiding 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3kN4oHfKOi
something from me, Zoey. So you better start talking."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡONehi9Bscc
I rolled my eyes and sighed so loud in frustration. How many people was I going to tell the truth to today?1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMwnOQ7Usy
"Fine," I said, looking at Christine. "But please don't tell anyone about this."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMvZSKHP15T
"Okay, I won't."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiisFnbPmRG
"Sit down."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSWvzVZqgn
Christine sat right next to TOP and she looked at me with anticipation.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3q8mgQycgk
"I got myself into trouble," I started.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYStXK1YKTB
"Great!" Christine threw her arms in the air. "What did you do now, Zoey?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKrGseuu6w
"I got involved with a diamond smuggler."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4qsPKrXE1z
Christine's face soon 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRFkaC85vhP
drained of colour and she looked as white as a ghost. She tried to open 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68ymBQA8iy
her mouth to say something but she couldn't. Until....1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtCycX6xpnr
"What!"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNs9T8dDq9X
TOP quickly covered up 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVQOJUEnqY
her mouth before she could shout out anything else. The receptionist 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDoUnpwC9Et
looked our way and soon went back to work. When he was sure she had 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡigBcAYK9fY
cooled down, TOP removed his hand from Christine's mouth.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ay2zA7qSA
"Are you cool now?" TOP asked.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡveACkr1siy
"Cool?" asked Christine, sounding anxious. "I come here and hear about some diamond smuggler. How can I be cool?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVx9invEsnL
"I know you're really mad at me right now, but you asked what was going on," I said, looking apologetically at her.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUQ12xXbH1
"Of course I'm mad!" 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZGYZbDgw7
Christine whispered angrily at me. "I know you always get in trouble, 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOiMCxKv6j6
but this by far is the worst one of them all."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0FX21Fng1u
"At least it's not a drug dealer," I said shrugging my shoulders.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7coyMS71mF
"Is there a difference? Seriously, Zoey. How the heck did this happen?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7b6zQaHyex
"It happened in Paris," I said. "Remember the guy I introduced you to at the fashion show?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiyJPfwBMKC
"Ya, I remember. What about him?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9uBDy9Nbhi
"He's the diamond smuggler," said TOP.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsT2BUsa8w6
"WHAT!"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7xKTACVaW7
"Ssh!" TOP, Seungri and I hushed at her at the same time, putting our fingers on our lips.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0dIHi9zGxb
"Guys, I can't help it, sorry," said Christine. "Wait, that handsome guy is the diamond smuggler?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31sjzKqRRH
"And the one I met at the café," I said.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJZIvzZDnN
"So he is the one who sent us the teddy bear?" Christine asked.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59k0mDlxrd
"Yes," the three of us answered at the same time.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1qycgnempb
"But why does he want the teddy bear back?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHSoYR7RQfj
"Because the teddy has diamonds in it," said Seungri.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6pr2WvAnt
"Wow, seriously?" Christine's eyes bulged out with surprise.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ083ueAGhAh
"Ya," I said. "I planned1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvKdS320hXB
on giving him the teddy bear yesterday but I couldn't because these 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxREkkaUyq1
guys showed up." I pointed at Seungri and TOP with my two thumbs.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz1yAp8UZDN
"So you're the one who 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡybND6VrUQO
got the teddy from our room yesterday," said Christine. "Lee was 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡom11ulonJl
searching for it and couldn't find it. She thought she must have 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7JXEi5tl9j
misplaced it somewhere. You even went to meet him? I thought you went 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjKlvZl4PO
out with Seungri."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4V8zytFIHR
"I lied."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEeGFeWCz8
Christine shook her head. "I knew something was up. You are really not good at lying."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0UcLxmIzpG
"I know." I gave Christine a grim look, not feeling impressed about myself at all.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1ctCyjO5k
"Why didn't you tell us you were being threatened by this guy?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHIH9XfkZnF
"I wasn't supposed to. And besides, it was too dangerous. He threatened me with a gun in Paris not to tell anyone."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDy8cYbQTrs
"That's great. There are guns too. Blackmail would have been so much better."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSOlkb2K5U
"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."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoS1jbPnsha
"Then why didn't you let him?" Christine asked.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCnbW6dl33w
"That was going to raise a lot of questions if anyone saw him," said Seungri.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfu1VBi7Wq
"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."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdgAbEBOU2a
"He said I should have a location as to where we meet," I said. "And I haven't thought of anything yet."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3jgpE6yAA5
"Why don't you meet after practice?" TOP suggested.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaAvUl31rne
"But where?" I asked.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC9oaQWjbSK
"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.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFSLW7aVoH
"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.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuIsJOs9zBH
"Fine, but remember, don't tell anyone," I said.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6IrKoFugzv
"Got it," said TOP and Seungri at the same time. Christine nodded her head.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFbgNTqgbx4
I took my phone out and 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTjHWkYl3Nq
texted Jehan that we should meet at the café after practise some time in1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvaKaW0kmCg
the evening. He replied saying that he would be there.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6yrJwZl746
"Okay, it's settled," I said as I put my phone back in my pocket.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS9ktZHw4qS
"Yay! The pizza is here," said Seungri as he stood up and approached the pizza delivery man coming in through the entrance.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4213PYxVqC
Seungri had ordered ten 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3aAMnpSz3
large sized boxes of pizza, enough for everyone upstairs. And the 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcdi0r9W8R8
flavour, mac and cheese. Sam's favourite. Well, almost everyone's 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlznUAHMsc
favourite.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXVlkaSSSbW
We helped Seungri with the pizza and went to the elevator which took us back up to the floor of the dance studio.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsoblEgv0TB
"When all of this is over, Zoey, you're going to get a scolding from me," said Christine, as we walked down the hall.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyzRVqq8LsK
"I'll be ready for 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrfRXyhGIc
that," I said as I rolled my eyes. "I just can't wait to have everything1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdyEgN2sxk
back to the way they were. Before all the threatening."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ936xeJYpgb
"No, they won't," said Seungri. "You still have Sam to resolve things with."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9kpyzXE1tD
"And G-Dragon," TOP added.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKW6E5W2a55
"Can we please not talk about that?" I asked. "You don't have to remind me all the time."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKYvDLz9Qth
"Well, someone has to," said Christine.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSfCC8ZwJk
"Just so you know, I'll agree to resolve things on my own terms."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiNCEjFtjEC
"Jeez," said Christine, rolling her eyes at me. "When you say that, I have to get ready for the unexpected."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz30cCaZiz4
We found ourselves back 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRXroEaSBGG
at the studio and this time, I found Sam talking to Taeyang. G-Dragon 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6ozklMFnh
was still talking to some of the back up dancers and I could see him 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuj9rs0NEBe
staring at Sam through the corner of his eye. Or was that me being 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4u13CGqkn
paranoid?1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9z5QaDQILv
Christine snapped her fingers right in front of me and I turned to look at her.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMj4jefwdXu
"What?" I asked.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0OIFIPxsmP
"You were frowning," Christine answered.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4URCJbfT0
"Frowning? I wasn't frowning."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB6nGl1Un5l
"Says the person who 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsgzVW0SyR3
couldn't stand seeing G-Dragon looking at someone else." Christine gave 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH6TcpOwRUV
me a smirk and left me standing all alone by the door, while she joined 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZWQHvBcvQ
the others who had soon formed a circle around Seungri and TOP.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUB3EFeKWjQ
Soon after lunch, we 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6kxa27lJ0
went straight back to practising. This time, for a good six hours. We 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy3qPkG6QVI
had to do the dance routine over and over again to perfect it. This time1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMU1xD32WGz
around, I made sure not to make any mistake like I had been doing 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡheJVpGp67J
earlier. This time, everything was coming out perfectly and I don't know1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuoFw36vDT3
how many times we had to do the routine all over again. But despite the1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSTeErVi7T
number of times we did it again, we had a whole lot of fun.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI8orjEIBV1
At some point in the 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7OfwUZq9A
afternoon, our two managers and Lee came over to check on us and they 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1EhHMM8Pe
were really impressed. Yang Hyun-suk thought filming the dance practise 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQMWsFc1n1
will be helpful and that they would release it after the music video. 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZXqXRLPoo
The dance practise was shot and it came out perfect, but still, we went 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmn88mCT6bE
back to practising until we could pratice no more.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡakCUSN0vIC
It was five and the sun 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3weDtsfuv
was setting when we were finally done for the day. I was so tired that I1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡinuP2m8dEe
was lying on the floor. My body aching everywhere. Luckily, I wasn't 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy67a247DIk
the only one on the floor. Christine and Daniel were lying on either 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡskeKe7ENaq
side of me. We were all pretty tired.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmgRMhplvP
The choreographer had already left and the backup dancers also started to leave. G-Dragon and Taeyang left together.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH19JuqdkZN
While I was resting and 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIRvMXbi2ks
gathering up any ounce of energy I had left, Seungri was standing next 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmDyziE0jWR
to my head and looking down on me. I looked up at him with a puzzled 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWqr9QOnJn
look on my face.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKk4NmNikNx
"Get up, Zoey, we gotta go," he said.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyjYd92w0q0
"Go? Go where?" I asked.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrY0hEFllIQ
Christine roughly nudged me on my side with her elbow, I looked at her with a whining look on my face.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmIWHftWix
"Ouch, that hurt!" I said.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaRZElI2r2O
"Are you forgetting, Zoey?" Christine asked, raising her eyebrows. "We have to go somewhere to do something."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5ogOS8K8n
It was then that I remembered that I was supposed to meet Jehan at the café. I totally forgot.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn2jtSUq9UN
"Oh, ya!" I quickly sat up on the floor and Christine followed. "We have to go."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZovu1Eumoi
"Go where?" Daniel asked, still lying down on the floor and looking at us.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcdKsitZGcz
"No where," I answered quickly. "We're just planning on going around the city for a drive."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡev0GRqFC5A
"I want to follow too," said Daniel.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡniS777TBUI
"Where did you say you were going?" came Mike who had been talking with Sam and Daesung.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgy7hXPVTeZ
I rolled my eyes. Seriously? The last thing I want is for everyone to follow and find out what's going on.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DsFGkbHuA
"It's nothing really," said TOP. "We were planning to drive around the city. You don't have to follow."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfCBj6PUjMa
"But this is not fair," said Daniel, sitting up quickly. "I also want to come along."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡql52LouLKD
"Ya, me too," said Mike.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsJJlbgkjRZ
"Why don't you want 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9SrSoM6sVz
these guys to go along?" Sam asked. I noticed that she still wasn't 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3inAiHlq8
looking at me. "You're just going for a drive. I see no reason for them 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8l3DWaGsfa
not to follow."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3CzcNUvPBv
I wanted to protest and 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcKKffc6QIQ
refuse but then I realised that I wasn't supposed to talk to Sam. And 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcfpwBjQRy
refusing her was going to be pointless because I already know Seungri 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡleMnHnt2VG
and TOP weren't going to deny her so easily.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjWmKVrpgG
"Okay, they can come along," said Seungri.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZ8zepjZcd
Dang it!1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnUXaH75BM
"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.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIZHgnY0bqu
"I can take you back to the hotel if you want," said Daesung, addressing Sam.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Ixu89M04E
"Thanks, that's nice of 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUjkV3gDIn
you, Daesung," said Sam giving him a sweet smile. She turned to look at 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzplfoEUlO
the others. "Have fun you, guys."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwuy4ViNccO
Sam and Daesung left the1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShwmICChBZ
room together and I couldn't help but look at the door and think to 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQr8tD1pSHV
myself that the two also made a nice pair.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMnpccGfPG
"So, where are we going?" Mike asked.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd94gtkciu7
"Please, don't ask any questions," I said as I turned to face him. "It's none of your business."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3QlKmn3eM
"Mmm, seeing the look on your face, something's up," said Daniel.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIle365c4L0
Christine stood up from 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBUQrmbZEWk
the floor and said, "look guys, if we tell, you have to promise not to 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQckoZJOCyo
tell anyone. Not even Sam. No one."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4Ky0cQGvT
I looked up at her with my eyebrow raised. "Are you seriously going to tell them?" I asked.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctCmwoyOPi
"Do I have a choice? You know how persistent these two are and they are probably going to find out anyway."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFvRu0tT7i
"Ya, Christine's right," said Seungri. "And we also couldn't refuse Sam for them to come along."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVch1t915aN
"You just couldn't refuse because you like her too much," I said, turning to face Seungri.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrazHg9BeZ
Seungri shrugged and smiled. "What can I say? I've to obey the lovely queen, right?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHIXMWcswh6
I almost snapped back at him but I controlled myself and looked away.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1HmiJfEur
"Okay, can we focus on telling us what's going on?" Daniel asked.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPhSXVgBJT
"Fine," I said. "Someone tell them. I can't keep repeating myself with all this."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPcVGpyzoc1
TOP told Mike and Daniel what was going on. The two brothers were shocked after what they heard.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDwWdgz4LTW
"Oooh, you're in a lot of trouble now, Zoey," said Mike, looking at me and shaking his head.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzTeu7xOYE
"You don't have to remind me," I said rolling my eyes.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡESfCQ4dI3U
"I can't believe that guy is the diamond smuggler," said Daniel.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkq9qiXE2J
"I know," said Christine.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQz389VlJgi
"You haven't told Sam about this?" Mike asked.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD3otTTUg1c
"No. No one has to know," I said. "Not even the police."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZG4VnC6Us
"I think you should have told Sam," said Daniel.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHAe2Do4qKv
"So that she can judge me? No way."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhBNQI47nb
"You know Sam can never do that," said Seungri. "She would have helped in any way possible."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Oz8yU678u
"Don't try to convince 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUFKPRa9yF
her of anything," said Christine. "She probably won't listen like she 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zjinaM5V1
always does." I raised an eyebrow at Christine and she looked back at me1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKRjOovkRE
like she could hit me with a hammer.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgHID2brlL
"Okay, let's go," said TOP.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyz3DjsjKsN
I got up from the floor 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbf2SaRhy0V
with Daniel and I took my purse. We soon left the room and headed 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDCEvhEfSNE
downstairs. Sam and Daesung had already left since there was no sign of 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwZH5hyase
Daesung's car in the parking lot. Christine and I went with Seungri in 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyaizxP73P9
his car while Daniel and Mike went in TOP's car.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡylsRmF79ru
The cars soon left the 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3yphCw6nlg
YG premises and in the car, I couldn't help but feel nervous. What if 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0aosGjg8el
things didn't work out like it did yesterday? I hope not. Every now and 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡivMPoa4Pvb
then, I would open and check if the teddy bear was still in my purse.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMdaI9wOJf
"Can you you please stop1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIr4xcxC3i
doing that?" Christine asked from the back seat. "You might just drop 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6k8UjNISYf
the teddy and lose it in the car."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0wmLjL2ln
"Stop joking around," I said as I turned to look at Christine.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡErD8VD06Jb
"Well, then stop getting nervous. We're all here with you so there is nothing to be worried about."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡteeV1niqlv
I leaned back on the chair and tried to relax. "You're right," I said. "I need to relax."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMlkOaK4Mp
"Don't worry, we're almost there," said Seungri as the car took a turn.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQnwQmMihOp
"I just want to get this over with."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Yt4VSJooh
We were soon packed 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZeKBz6GKuV
right outside the café and TOP's car parked right next to us. I took a 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHVCgBYSXi9
deep breath. Christine came over and put her hand on my shoulder. I 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnw0qrgYQHk
turned to look at her.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlaUWypHsen
"Everything is going to be okay," said Christine giving me an encouraging smile. "If anything happens, we'll be here."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjH6YbHJxRf
"Thanks," I said with a smile. "I'm glad you guys are all here."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3HCYOoUAAd
Seungri also turned to 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ24NfSFvOt
smile at me. I don't know what I would have done without them. Their 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnllaF4T22R
presence here gave me a little comfort. But I felt a small hole in my 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaF5HqdxY0i
chest and I wished Sam was here too.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLq9NKjWo8
I soon got out of the 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqDRfBzftf
car and there was a sudden chill in the air. Maybe it's because the sun 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7oWQpZdfAs
was setting that it started to get cold. I had my purse in my hand and I1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgyy6hfFKUs
looked towards the café. I hope everything will go as planned.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkm6gkNrpA
Before I could find my 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUtVxb9GO2C
way into the café, TOP, Mike and Daniel waved at me through the windows 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKdlKONs7Y
of TOP's car and giving me a thumbs up. I smiled a little and waved 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGsS2GJjnI
back. At least that gave me the confidence to go ahead.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCPal7Oizca
I quickly went in the 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG5vfQseWfO
café and when I slowly stepped in, I looked around for Jehan. I spotted 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgVJF9VbIe
him right next to the huge glass window where we had last sat down 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt5qma2BEzZ
together. He was alone in his smart pressed black suit, as always.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xLe5EH2u4
I slowly approached the 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Ud7zt0hL4
table. His eyes never left me since I walked in the café. When I got to 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFvxn8hp8b
the table, I sat facing him. My heart was beating so fast. I don't know 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLauJGHOdi
why I was so scared that things might go wrong and Jehan wouldn't 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVAu7gYo2o
hesitate to end my life right here.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡylOplMmNEE
"I'm glad you could make it," said Jehan. "I was almost about to call my driver to come pick you up."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCDfscCnGVQ
"I was practising today," I answered.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrtAFs7JLP0
"You look really tired. It could show all over your face."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufkx4Z6h8y
"Thanks," I frowned at 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJcMY1VZOV
him. "Can we get this over with? I still have a busy day tomorrow and I 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpm8O3gm630
would like to get this teddy bear off my back."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvdzdwsaznd
Jehan smirked. "Certainly."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHkNjMmqYS
I quickly reached out 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6mswtPJVP
for the purse on my lap, opened it and gave him the teddy bear. Jehan 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaM3GxVKjnT
reached out to take it and I couldn't help but feel relieved.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9N1QaGdJ1V
"There! You have your teddy," I said. "Can I go now?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhAwPG6qQJ
"Wait." Jehan held up a finger when I was just about to stand up and leave. I sighed.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt93qTriUtT
"What now?" I complained.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuWL6YEgQHY
"I need to check if all the diamonds are in here," said Jehan, shaking the teddy in his other hand.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtoRDjo9XV
"What do you think? That1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwaCjge4eC0
I would steal from you?" I was really surprised that he didn't trust 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOt08nIy0Yi
me. "You pointed a gun to my head in Paris and I have done everything 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAOATdzaK9o
you have asked until now. What makes you think I would steal your 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUDk3pCqV2X
diamonds? I have a life to live, may I remind you."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF4OyDb3ORr
Jehan raised an eyebrow 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAOb9Okyn8S
at me. "Nice one, Zoey. You almost had me convinced. But I'm still going1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP46mo4yOY3
to check. I've to make sure all the diamonds are in here before I make a1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFHvrMU4eRv
fool of myself in front of my clients I'm selling these to."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp0faQ1yQ3q
"Fine." I folded my arms on the table. "If you don't believe me, then check it yourself. I know I'm innocent."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJcSdzjiHc
"I know you're." Jehan gave me a smile and I looked away facing the window. It was getting really dark outside so fast.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4LhSqFze77
I went back to looking 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpA1D82sZm8
at Jehan who had laid the little teddy bear on the table and he dug into1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUIt88pJjPI
the pockets of his suit and removed a small pocket knife. It didn't 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8sULLRBCA
surprise me that he carried that thing around.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkfw0fboLP
Jehan slowly laid the 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kHTpm0rRu
blade onto the little teddy's belly and cut through its tiny suit, 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYa2wAD7kz0
dissecting the teddy bear. This reminded me of science class back in 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWv06wqnw7d
high school when we were told to dissect a frog. Doing that was so 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1mdkM7c9QY
disgusting that I ended up purking all over Sam's shoes, who was my 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDrrY47zJ3z
science partner. This time, it was just cotton stuffing that came out of1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0NpIKDDO6
the teddy bear.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡulkrq68Tkb
Wait. I frowned. This 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIhbZTTfHE
isn't right. I raised an eyebrow when Jehan kept on removing cotton 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3Q663QbJi
stuffings and there was no sign of the diamonds. Where were the 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLngYbWfvbc
diamonds!1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4Ptr7CKsX
I stared horrified at 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnV7bzeFgOI
the scene on the table. There was tiny cotton stuffings everywhere and 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5VlIUKhkko
the bear that laid stuffless on the table was a sad site to see because 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1A7Cs1F91S
there was nothing in it. No diamonds.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMabpRpLkF
I looked up at Jehan and1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHqiKzBxZC
he was as surprised as I was. His mouth was wide open and he couldn't 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbe7KbppK2
stop looking at the dissected teddy. If he kept on looking at it like 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiHSeUEQGFc
that, he was going to end up traumatised.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo32ZBdfR3l
"Je-Jehan," I said 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7SlHtnmro4
softly. Hoping he wouldn't bite at me like a dog with rabies. "Jehan. 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZtOlHnCroX
I...I have no idea what has just happened, but, there are no diamonds in1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOH98QdgA1Q
there."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvdm0GZ4emX
Jean neither moved nor 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHwO4iR3iuS
said a word. I was getting worried. Should I move him to try and snap 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWJIV2vjL9
him out of it? I didn't know what to do.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCpIOEIktE
But how could this be? 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyoQTNpln0G
Where did the diamonds go? It's not like the teddy bear could just poop 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxVSgsj5zR
out diamonds since it wasn't alive or anything. Something weird was 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQWwAjz11BP
going on. And I wasn't like liking it at all.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsTZdXX7Bkv
"Where are my diamonds?" Jehan muttered silently, still looking at the scene before him.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiWxFiHi7wA
"I...I don't know," I said shaking my head. I was scared of his reaction and I prepared myself for it.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzTzBoOuOF
He banged his fists on 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfa2Eu2qpt
the table so loudly that he startled not only me, but everyone else in 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo9mztHiYcb
the café. Everyone turned to look at us and I looked around then back at1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNRdBCxvfp
Jehan, whose eyes were as red as a bull's, staring at me.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡINFEjXmh6J
"Jehan, chill," I said, putting my hands up to calm him down. "Let's not try to get angry here."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQwcKbc8sD
"Where are my diamonds, Zoey?" This time he didn't shout but the anger in his voice got me shivering.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnF1Bc9V9NK
"I don't know. I don't 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4cXkKh9YSs
know what's going on right now. This is the same teddy bear you sent us.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNC7Qzy3vbk
I don't know why it doesn't have diamonds in it."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZX201OdQJE
"How did the diamonds go missing?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡue1rLV7M3L
"How am I supposed to 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZIENBzK94T
know? I just kept the teddy for you. Maybe you sent me the teddy without1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgD4P09Vw7m
diamonds in it and you probably never noticed."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiMX9GuVW4Q
"Don't doubt what I do, Zoey! I made sure I made no mistake."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHNLPok8KxA
"Okay, chill, I believe you. Look, why don't we try to sort this out calmly? Getting upset won't do us any good."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgP4vePXeWV
Jehan rubbed his 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1tA7Al2FXd
forehead and sighed as he leaned back further into his seat. He seemed 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6bFEbI2a8
to have calmed down when he looked at the teddy bear again.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDaV3gvj1a6
"I need my diamonds back, Zoey."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMK92k3G9mr
"I know. You've said that like almost a hundred times now."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3dVTRgTmC
"Let's not joke around here. What happened? Why does this bear have no diamonds in it?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBKqXrMkfS
"I didn't do anything. I swear. That teddy was just the way it was eversince you sent it."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR633iIcaV7
"Then why doesn't it have diamonds in it?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTP0wpiYDlJ
"I don't know."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKiAziIC3h
Jehan looked at me with an eyebrow raised. "Who else had this teddy apart from you?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBT54kB7DX
"Ummm," I looked down 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrYIfSBmYk7
and played around with my fingers. "Uh....I wasn't the one who had been 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡauTV7Sy7An
taking care of the teddy bear this whole time."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ40qWfezEo3
"What?" Jehan sounded surprised. "What do you mean?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCr8qFIzXm
"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.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnj5u4gIwCI
"Who had the teddy bear?" Jehan leaned closer, his eyes not leaving mine.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxRjZ7zpLZ
"Lee had it before I took it from her yesterday."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ38LU3XULq9
"Oh, my gosh!" Jehan 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOLmgkkITN
covered his face with his hands and I could see this wasn't going too 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1QDGDpmfXV
well for him. "Could she have the diamonds?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxX8o8IDjX
"I don't think so. Lee 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88Dfpcyb0d
is an honest person. If she did notice there were diamonds in the teddy,1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5V7JTJtA8z
she would've said something. No way. She can't have the diamonds."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl8PQG0dKiF
"Then how do we explain all this! She was the last person to have the teddy, correct?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ95ZQ2b7OVH
"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."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlo6O8AvIc
"Maybe you don't know Lee well enough. If this is the same teddy I had sent, where could the diamonds be?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vWTkwA9qr
"Maybe this is just another teddy bear and the actual one with the diamonds is still at the hotel."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2k4O3lnEM
After I said that, Jehan1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMdepdJ2aY
quickly took the dissected teddy bear in his hands and looked at it 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMlIUJvMOS4
carefully. He turned the teddy, looking at its back side and tearing the1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9mAf5AIkaj
suit away. I wondered what he was looking for because he had a serious 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJL6nTyHqe
look on his face.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiU05QIWYqb
"You're right," said Jehan. "This is definitely another teddy bear and not the one I sent you."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeaLFCxSTY8
"Wait, how do you know?" I asked.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqnck9uVFcS
"I remember one of my 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNduegHnWYn
men who sewed the teddy bear after putting diamonds in it at the back. 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFiyoKR2dJ
There should have been some stitching here but this one doesn't."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05quxjXMsP
"Ha!" I snapped my fingers. "I knew I was right!"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkwQUTybE8h
"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!"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYsVPBrpT4F
"Huh? I can't start 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHeDJWHciv5
searching for it now. It would look suspicious. And I can't start asking1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ61l9ts9i9b
Lee if she bought another teddy just like this one. She already knows 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFSRzFeYfQ
that the bear is missing."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMesDWWf4Xd
"Then maybe, Lee isn't the only person you should be asking."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTydR0CvNCn
"What do you mean?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU49iOLNGev
"Someone else must know where the other teddy bear is. Your group members perhaps."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoalQ7c660B
"No. I highly doubt it. Lee must have bought another teddy and we just didn't know about it."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlxtDrYT0Oq
"Now that, makes no 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ77BTX4kwVP
sense. If I were you, I would go back and find out what happened to that1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBR6qkPXq1h
teddy and ask around for it. I'll need that teddy tomorrow."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSpc8ILORZ1
"Tomorrow! Are you nuts!"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF6Bncd5c0A
"Maybe I am because I'm desperate to have those diamonds back."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYKs4Ufq6P
"I might not be around tomorrow. I have a music video to shoot."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8BVyI0Lcxl
"Find those diamonds and you will be scott free, Zoey. Or do you want everyone to mourn over you when they find you dead?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5l3OrQI4i
I completely forgot that1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYmlsZoe1Y
I was being threatened by this guy. Though his threats didn't scare me 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDMs0zJYY9
anymore, I just had to abide to everything. Who knows, he might not have1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamzDsh2BGy
me killed, but he could hurt the others and it would be all my fault.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMViVmlpAQ
"Okay. I'll see what I can do."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXHWBQ1CpB
Jehan gave me a smile. 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhgl0L5pA9
"That's more I like it. I would start working on this soon if I were 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpGTfparza
you. Try your best to find the bear by tomorrow, will you?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbwi07eFxf
I nodded my head and 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgjJHB2Imb
that made him smile even more. He soon stood up from his seat and looked1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vv2mvSsT6
down at me. I looked back at him without a saying a word.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUa4sxSk5gU
"See you tomorrow," said Jehan and he quickly walked out of the café.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmvqJjIqJra
I sat there as I buried 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwknNJY4oI
my face in my hands, thinking of what to do. Again, everything was 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Fe8DUzkFJ
ruined. First, the interruption from TOP and Seungri yesterday. Now, the1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7PLUISnWYU
teddy bear had been swapped with another. My life couldn't get any 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM41gnzdsby
worse than this. What was going on? Who was putting me into so much 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOxMmn0kVj
drama that might just ruin my life?1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8pytWR2NH
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.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIcSwUlktiZ
"Zoey, what happened?" Christine asked, as she turned to look on what was on the table.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7NKkK3vh4J
I could hear footsteps 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznobLKBhZk
behind me. The others had come in the café too. They all looked worried 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSeUoKd3CG
when they saw the look on my face.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZV6O9bwT9
Christine sat where Jehan had been a few minutes ago and looked at the tattered teddy bear on the table.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PgX7vMcdw
"What's going on?" Daniel asked. "And what happened to Mr Teddy?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNnl0NwklW
"Jehan didn't look happy when he left the café," said TOP. "Didn't he get his diamonds?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPNNkwXmH6
"No," I answered. "He didn't."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wzuRcrS4Q
"What?" Seungri sounded surprised. "What do you mean he didn't get his diamonds?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbaV002esf6
"This teddy isn't the teddy he had sent us," I answered. "Someone swapped the teddy with another."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡisVvRQEaaM
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."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdaMLJAjxop
"And what about Lee?" 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4To6emBNDt
Christine asked. "She was the one who last had the teddy before Zoey 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrIVkfp5VoM
took it. But what doesn't make any sense is why she would want to get 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4jHpqO3GYl
another teddy when she had asked me last night where Mr Teddy had gone 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf1DOqcUd5O
to."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1GKE4WBUq
"This is bad," I said, 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSCW8vQ1ENi
leaning my elbows on the table and holding my head. "Whoever has the 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyf5GczcRTt
teddy, knew what must have been going on this whole time."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV0hFvcMINV
"Ya, but who could have known?" Seungri asked. "It couldn't be Lee because all she knows is that the teddy has gone missing."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiIaixzY1Lj
"Maybe Sam has it," said Mike.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4K4B9r9Ar
We all turned to look at Mike with grim looks on our faces.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm9O0Yaawis
"Sam?" I wondered for a 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfcC2YIax9q
little while. "Why would Sam have the teddy? And if she did, how could 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUoELo8tgj1
she have swapped it with the other one?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0FmM6imtIx
"Okay, wait," said TOP. 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYaLDTLn4P
"This is all too confusing. Does Sam even have any idea or clue as to 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY9r3YcNYsI
what's really going on in the first place?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfEnJbHefOk
"I doubt it," I said 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIBXAXho1gZ
shaking my head. "If she knew what was going on she would have 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpzibpwpi27
confronted me. And besides, she was also at the mall yesterday and would1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARql72iWz2
have probably seen Jehan and I together. But she didn't."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx6M19oikKl
TOP and Seungri looked 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8CSgIeyYTU
at each other after I said that. What was up with them? The look they 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfEL7kf2RLM
gave each other made me feel that something was up but I quickly brushed1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6zEybn72lI
it away.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVbIrqDSUQ0
"I highly doubt it too,"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtJZBG25cN
said Daniel. "If she knew Zoey was into some kind of serious trouble, 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOtWNrm9Xy
she would have asked us about it."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZkbHaGfzq
"That's true," said 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCKL0VZFMaE
Mike. "Come to think of it, I don't think Sam has it. For her to swap 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOysXDdF44x
the teddy, she would have bought it from somewhere."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15tMKsNssn
"And I checked out the 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1y6P7hlcYM
shopping bags, Lee came with yesterday when she went shopping with Sam. 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZMR5ZOm3F
There was no sign of a small teddy in any of them," said Christine.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsVoxME4l30
"She must have bought it when she was with G-Dragon," I said.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2HnusvFir6
"No, I highly doubt it,"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPyOyj9fXaE
said TOP. "There are some dedicated fans who followed those two 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnRMBlbGys
yesterday, describing which store they went to and taking pictures. They1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdUTdobjQPc
said nothing about them entering a toy store."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dL9Y7xeNn
"Now that's what I call a dead end," said Daniel.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Nmk63QmvV
"Fine, so Lee and Sam have been cancelled on the list," said Seungri. "Who else could have swapped the teddies?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdmVBeipK6
"Collins?" Mike asked.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0j5B89WU7s
"Ha! No way," I said, almost laughing in a such a serious situation. "How could he have known about Jehan and the diamonds?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKaALxB7OTi
"Mmmm, good point," said Seungri. "He's been really busy these past few days."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpFLEk213fY
"But who knows? Maybe he1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJkaCOKxua
has been spying on me this whole time and I haven't noticed. He 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx9ELyp5P5D
considers me the black sheep that has to be kept an eye on at all 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxrJPh90tl
times."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcIuoqJMBe8
"You're definitely the black sheep, Zoey," said Mike.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO0QpbRjM67
"Hey! May I remind you, I'm not the only one here who gets into trouble here."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsoMKNJaHlf
"Okay, guys, focus," said TOP. "What makes you think Collins might have been the one who swapped the teddies?"1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFnD3KfgyZD
Daniel suddenly snapped his fingers. "I remember now. Yesterday when he came back with Sam, something happened."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDnuelxlECI
"Wait. Collins was with Sam?" I asked.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7UGhWqgYp
"He was the one who went1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSrTndoZqK
to pick her up from the mall," Daniel answered. "Back to what I was 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9OgBE6BTLp
saying, Collins had something delivered to him at the hotel. He even 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMvQbR8edvQ
went to get it himself from the delivery man who was coming up the 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTVuJFTzpsI
elevator."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG3By4Fg2hP
"What was it?" We all asked Daniel, looking at him anxiously.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHDQ2S3SQZ
"It was a small box. And if you ask me, it was kind of like the one Jehan had sent that teddy bear in."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8UcRQBRmtL
"Gosh, it's been Collins this whole time," said Christine.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJoEg2qFDb
"I couldn't be too sure," I said. "But after what Daniel has said, I don't know what to believe."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoCpw1R2NZ1
"We really have to go," said Seungri. "We can't stay here."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwam0Rn7My6
"You're right," I said 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8N35V98wS
as I stood up from the seat taking my purse. "I've to search for that 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbzOCm802y
teddy if I want to make it out alive tomorrow."1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZ4dmHPMq0
"Wait, we can't leave all this here," said Christine, taking what was left of the teddy bear in her hands.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeh4te9wPZ4
We all walked out of the1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn3Igc8nOA8
café, hopping no one had heard our conversation. There were a few 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVIXcPk5bK
people in the café and I highly doubt if they really heard anything.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWoblG5MIpi
While I was in the car 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEaRg196ARw
with Seungri driving and the others in the other car behind us, I was so1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYVXmW7m2G
troubled about the missing teddy. I couldn't help thinking that Collins1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡabpIT5UWug
is involved. But that didn't make any sense. As much as I wanted to 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCOIzprOMRa
believe that Collins could have swapped the teddies, I shook my head at 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGjWfunq4G
the thought of it. Maybe it really wasn't Collins.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvkq3es7MXy
If it isn't him, then 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSysOXyjT2k
who? It couldn't be Lee because she had the teddy with her the whole 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2AAyPKb2L
time and she couldn't buy another teddy for no reason. And I couldn't 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJEhGWNDPci
picture Sam doing anything like that either because I had never seen her1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOoOtZPUwum
near that teddy after Jehan sent it to us that day.1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovGNMknc8a
What if I had the wrong 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8gqnJQFpE
teddy the whole time and I had never known till now? All this was too 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv60Xe0v0II
confusing. Who swapped the teddies? And when did the swapping ever take 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNmSdgTubK
place without any of us noticing in the first place?1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvaDxOqBadA
I hope I could be able 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡscBG8bC9td
to find the teddy soon. Jehan might threaten to kill me, but I was 1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLCBcm9KPZ5
pretty sure he would try to hurt the others too. And I wouldn't let that1060Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMetpa6URt
happen.
