I poured myself a cup of orange juice as I looked at Christine who sat across from me at the table, having a bite of her toast. I looked at her and realised that she seemed more vibrant today. Was it because of the extra sleep we had yesterday?890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsiJXColeZE
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWvLuBAwm8m
I heard footsteps coming into the lounge and I turned to see Zoey approaching the table.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs2n7bpeEEM
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPUVCUvqae
"Morning, girls," she said as she drew out a chair next to mine and sat down with a bright smile on her face.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzO5jzr7M1I
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7BziLTGaN
"Morning," Christine and I answered at the same time.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNEN9DFhmyz
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqYBKgLn9hk
"You ladies look very bright this morning," she said as she took a plate and placed it in front of her.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqVS8xIphjP
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3ByITSBHI
"So do you," said Christine as she took another bite out of her french toast.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwAqM7pQzky
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGk2DCu1kvD
"I guess the sleep we had really worked wonders," I said.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡokXAkASZTs
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2xBYi4zv2
"Really?" Zoey asked as she looked at me and held her cheeks with her fingers as though she was massaging them. "Do I look like extra extra pretty?"890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLh8ovJguv
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqRQ8eSpRW
I smiled at her. "You've always looked pretty, Zoey."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHU8tKv92cp
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV43GbQ9gLp
"Morning, people," said Mike as both him and Daniel appeared and came straight for the table.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwlEiZQCHLe
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJSE4ya0ov
"Morning," we answered him. I gave Daniel, a bright smile. He smiled back.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4RHUALTZYT
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHTtVkMFwA9
"What's with Zoey feeling like she's all pretty?" Mike asked as he took a seat right next to Christine and Daniel sat right next to Zoey.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnKis55OMrO
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3NCjmcXkmn
"Can't you see that I'm glowing?" Zoey asked as she beamed at Mike. "Sam says the extra sleep we had must have helped."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2khD3XuTH
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMd8axmUZqV
"Enough sleep is good for the body," said Daniel as he took the jug of orange juice.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wtLAM7D0A
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHg2L3OMrW
"Are we going to meet with the others today and finish up on the song?" Mike asked as he looked at me.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjoEIuXclrd
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSH6u07bA8q
"I haven't communicated with either of the two groups yet," I said.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDCgQ2xOuWu
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOhGJhEWVEo
"Mmm..., funny," said Zoey as she lifted her toast and looked at it like she was observing it. "I haven't been on my phone since last night."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpMvUY4huw
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkiOi1EFZMY
"Really, that's all you can think about?" Christine asked.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNDMvk6g5E
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡptzPqkuNRJ
"Well..., I guess we were all tired and needed a break. Besides, last night was quite fun."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZddbfblu1
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCbcH9xBHJ
"Tell me about it," said Daniel as he held a slice of toast and took a bite.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhYklYsnOrm
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxZ54YBEoY
After we went to catch up on sleep yesterday afternoon, we woke up around 7PM and we all met in the lounge where we ended up playing board games with Lee. Before supper, Collins arrived and joined in on the fun and we told him about our progress on the new song. After supper, we all sat down to watch the Korean drama series, "Boys Over Flowers." We went to bed an hour early before our usual bedtime.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyb2eSVYs5a
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWOvjCdqFI
"We should have more sleeping hours, don't you think?" Mike asked.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0GjAC3iofD
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8izBe0bH55
"With what we are working on right now, I doubt it," I said. "Maybe after we finally head back home."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGqR9UD8kCk
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQwoYGhNCm
"This album is going to kill us," said Zoey as she leaned her head back and looked up at the ceiling in frustration.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PoSmSYniI
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu0hNYKj9al
"You have to check up on these guys and ask if we're going to meet," said Christine as she looked at me.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3y2WB33Cqd
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3HuWKMEwR
"After breakfast," I said. I took a sip of my juice.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8GReC1XkXj
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXwyV5VOYyO
As we continued to have our breakfast and talked about the snakes and ladders game we had yesterday, Lee and Collins came into the lounge. Lee was taking down something on her tablet while Collins talked to her, almost like he was giving her instructions. I couldn't hear what he was saying because he talked in a low tone and Zoey at the same time was the one talking at the table.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMS6j6icEie
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTmExBZMwuM
"All I am saying is," she said, "if Daniel wasn't so lucky, I would have won that game."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCySoXI6IX
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxTtFZkWiK
"Too bad you got eaten by the snake towards the end," said Daniel as he smiled at Zoey.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdY5n7WBoSm
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdldxILu67
"Sometimes I think you cheat."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5gOgfRqaPj
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZychZaT3M
"Cheating in snakes and ladders is almost impossible," said Christine as I saw her shrug her shoulders. "That's if you have the super power to row the dice to the number that's most suitable."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ieRbBzWVM
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfqNPaPtVxy
"Morning," said Collins as he and Lee came towards us. "I see Zoey still hasn't gotten over that snakes and ladders game."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhAYSIwzJq5
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXxyTfdIO0A
Zoey looked down at her empty plate, not daring to look up at Collins. "Not really," she said.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFpvXFo7Sa
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEk6LL6fHtx
"Will all of BTW be meeting today to continue working on the song?" Collins asked as he looked at me.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡusjkDEqxsG
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoioVnZVUN6
"I have to communicate with them and see if it's possible," I answered.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJAdaTni9xr
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKlxZdTjCyw
"Well, I sure hope so. I told Yang Hyun-suk that you already started. He wants to hear it tomorrow, so I really hope you do make progress."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvARjH71xfj
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9gKHlago0
"I better go give them a call, then."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQO0l17PPG
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeIz3mCuZXK
I drew my chair back and left the table. I later found myself back in the room I shared with Zoey. I went straight for my phone that was beside the bed lamp. It felt like it had stayed there for a very long time because I barely touched it last night.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMXpOz9c25
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSn6TJTQ0b
I checked my lock screen and found no messages whatsoever. Maybe its because I hadn't turned the wifi on on my phone. After I unlocked it and switched on the wifi, notifications came flooding in almost at the same time most of them from social networks like Instagram and Twitter. I ignored them all as I went on my WhatsApp to check if there were any messages on the BTW chat group. But nothing.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPII3Vt3JD
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJ5PRxG0L8
"Strange," I muttered to myself as I sat on my bed. I decided to leave a message, but that wasn't going to be enough.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6dBD9u23hR
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS77Dc5XiHJ
I decided to make a call to one of the BlackPink members. Jennie was the first member on my contact list so I called her.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsGFaIpB8ce
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCi87ijz74
I put my phone to my ear. Her phone rang but she wasn't picking up. I waited until the voicemail came up and I cut the call right away. Maybe she was still asleep or she wasn't so close to the phone. I called again and still her phone went straight to voicemail.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpAr5QsGLsm
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlbHeZe7lYu
I called Jisoo next, and just like Jennie's phone, it went straight to voicemail. Something didn't feel right. Why were they both not answering their phones?890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFpey6sOIl
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXAF5F9UXZ
I went on ahead to call Seunghoon and this time, I prayed that his phone wasn't going to act like the others. Upon the third ring, he answered.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDoycBCpHQ
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBCZ0EQk4s
"Hello?" Seunghoon answered. He sounded sleepy.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxh0mEmhhdp
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhwIWn5zpPV
"Seunghoon? Hey, are you still asleep?" I asked.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjjKBcESAU8
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuIC1MQ41Di
"Sam?" he sounded surprised and more awake. "Oh, I didn't notice it was you."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDzwG2zbZMk
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLapqyEtaTd
"Are you guys coming to meet us here at the hotel? We have a song to work on, remember?"890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Dx8PrwOyY
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvz50nUKtno
"Oh, oh, ya, we do..., ummm, eish.....," I heard him mutter something in Korean. "You said we can meet either today or tomorrow, right?"890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLETwnXWPxE
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ50Te2yCy9H
"Umm...," I raised an eyebrow. Something was definitely not right at the moment. "Yes, I did. That's why I called to see if you guys are up it."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU6h8n4aXNK
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNIAR15x0fI
"Oh, umm, let me ask if these guys are up for it." I heard movement, like someone was pushing away the sheets to try and get out of bed. "I'll call you right back."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzSsxTCaTup
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDkaPKVXarC
"Ya, sure."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAurDCobcE
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlC3Gndj38
Seunghoon cut the call and I couldn't help but wonder. Maybe the others weren't up for meeting today. It was for the best to have it cancelled.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQEToont50
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMaZkpZfzI
The door to the room flew open and Zoey came in.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWd1wjHMnPf
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtUZLugOUeP
"Anything?" Zoey asked.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ06uHEPUJTW
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrWM0MyKZS
"Couldn't reach Jennie or Jisoo," I answered. "But I did reach Seunghoon and he will get back to me as soon as he talks to the others."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0QroVMp7bK
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIisUvYUaf
"Okay, well, we can wait."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLPltm8vT4
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9YjZDI259S
"Maybe we should cancel and meet tomorrow. Seunghoon was still asleep when I called."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVqJ9K0Sif
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCnMjNmgOJ
"We could, but Yang Hyun-suk wants to hear the song tomorrow."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡclZSHdyE6J
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOtUrAnZnoU
"We can tell Collins to tell him that he will have to wait a little longer."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡidMKbfsn8d
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJffsGsJ4w
"Geez, this is Yang Hyun-suk we're talking about. He wouldn't like taking orders from a missy like you."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMNDt2Rc4GJ
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo3eo6cUbOX
I shrugged my shoulders. "It's just a suggestion, not an order."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17PEqd85Sk
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBassPAply
"Ooh, you know what I mean," she said irritatingly.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8POiVpZXvc
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITaVqkaSNq
"We can't work on the song without them."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtXVvsxc55
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDdJDCmIuV
"True, but you started to work on the song way before we all met yesterday. You're a good songwriter after all."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6NfN5oV6S3
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhdTlcB7hlw
"I hope we won't have to write the songs of the entire album ourselves. We will need to bring out some songwriters. We don't really have much time."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOc0n3x5ZT4
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm24gieGklC
"Huh, funny. Collins was talking about it with Lee just now. You two seem to think alike."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ZV1zO1Gxf
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgZ0xwXUBf
"Yay, we will be working on one song," I said with less enthusiasm.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWkA2vja7lo
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcNzzLYz1iX
"Then get your guitar and notebook."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7wgIrF18R
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQTJXGOFhN
"May you help me with my guitar?" I asked. "It's in the closet."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9arJsNv5k
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3l9U5SXrB
"Really? Why do I get to carry the heavy stuff for you?"890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxeFvgfF1S
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzgtKLC4G98
"I never let you carry any of my heavy stuff. And besides, the guitar isn't so heavy."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKIU7QoI4rL
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGOhozfYRPt
"Whatever," Zoey rolled her eyes at me as she went to the closet to get it. I stretched out over my bed to get my notebook in one of the drawers on the other side of the bed.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaG8gHctAnB
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlyNNFoHmcv
Zoey and I soon left the room, Zoey with my guitar and me, with my phone and notebook. I expected Seunghoon to have called back by now but he hadn't. Strange.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4L5uxwUyPt
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzQGu29evC
"Aah, it's good to see that you are much more serious than I thought about the song," said Collins as we entered the lounge.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wLZeQFkzE
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNEQSluanUS
"Of course we are," said Zoey as she smiled at Collins seated in the lounge. My brothers and Christine weren't by the dining table.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPb8OkIAGq
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUweYakFWEq
"And what about the others?" Lee asked. She was standing right in front of us with the tablet still in her hands. "Are they going to make it?"890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3rSrYeMCr
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv09bgu5Pco
"Am yet to receive a reply," I answered.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qQTa7Txvm
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSpveHDF4L
"I hope all goes to plan," said Collins as he stood up. "Yang Hyun-suk is really looking forward to hearing the song."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0xjgA5tT6Y
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74GqSQaoux
I gulped. Something told me it was best if the managers heard the song another day.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSj5w3rE9B
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9g7rtTxfMo
"I actually think we need a little more time," I said to Collins.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWV59vAs4s
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxETzTSlK5
"Really?" he raised his eyebrow at me.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7QgB1Zo6y
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2ssclnYY4
I felt Zoey look at me. She knew what I was doing. I had no other choice but to stall.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Ee7HZc0ZS
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbSGAuGGQP
"Yes, really," I answered.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpkntKwZLi6
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN930b8dyIK
"Whatever reason you have, fine. But you will have to finish the song because tomorrow we will meet other songwriters and composers for the album. But we will still need that song from you."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKN8tjGn3DQ
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPZavmXhgj
I nodded my head. "It will be a great song, trust me."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0zRf25Znj1
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwkz3C1w9Ac
Collins smiled at Zoey and I, then left the lounge heading for the elevator. It looked like he was going out as always.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡitkdDUJEQz
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA36Z4YKs5w
"Well, that went well," said Zoey after we were sure that Collins had gone.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTy4C6Mwzf
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvHraZ3vHdv
"What went well?" Lee asked.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqidxW3xvR
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqx74okPEg
"Nothing, nothing," said Zoey as she went ahead to put the guitar on the nearest couch and smiled at Lee.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjq1Zaiu4m
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZvwe5HX4L
I knew Lee was going to stare at me to get an answer, so, I avoided her gaze by looking at my phone. Still nothing from Seunghoon. I debated on whether to give him another call.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHUofjA5mm
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaeO8dZvll7
I heard one of the doors open and shut in the hall followed by Christine's voice singing to a song by Maroon 5: "She will be loved" until she entered the lounge.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeN9H1DlBcO
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxUBuzmi6X
"Any news from the others yet?" she asked as she stood beside me.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWoiX4SC2du
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyyXadChgGh
I shook my head. "I can't reach BlackPink and Seunghoon said he would inform me soon if he and the rest are going to make it."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8KvpCBrXO1
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUHG6tFtfi
"Bummer," she said as she went over to sit on the couch. Zoey soon joined her.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFcaagmYEUy
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvcUlwh5KgW
"Now I see why you don't want the managers hearing the song tomorrow," said Lee. "You're not sure if these guys are going to show."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhfi2BNQguY
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYoCQu59isd
"I thought we agreed that we were all going to rest and then meet up," said Christine.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTgPnHaK5Ut
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU90GH1IaU7
"The sad part was I suggested we meet either today or tomorrow," I said.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xjHWrUqgs
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMnZ1j06tEN
"I think I was the one who suggested that," said Lee as she winced.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoW4CCx8EBG
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡanE8nT1ISC
"Judging by Sam's phone that should have rang minutes ago, we're likely to meet tomorrow," said Zoey.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvowN818mP
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmEMcPtwGun
She was right. I looked at my phone and I felt like I should have just left it behind in my room. Seunghoon might call to tell me that they weren't going to make it. Jisoo or Jennie would find my missed calls and call me back to say the same thing.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2V3bw1EnU
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVsDIxQgHL
"Ya, you're right," I said as I slumped my shoulders and lowered my phone. I sighed.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDHhjO58N2L
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvijqbSIj9
"If these guys are taking a day off, don't you think we should as well?" Zoey asked.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0Dw0xdUqm
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCkWmtpLQc
"No!" Christine, Lee and I said at the same time.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyvDZseSYzV
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfgLOpDUPu
Zoey's face was one filled with disappointment. "I really wanted to go shopping."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeM5cP9iaTf
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUYUpLg1emu
"If they won't come, we will work on the song ourselves," I said. "I'll just text them-"890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhpjjtoRCv
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1uKzH1x8rg
The phone beeps in my hand. I looked at it and I found a message from Seunghoon. I read the message saying that they won't be able to make it. I texted back and told him we would meet tomorrow.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe7WoTHt1PF
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzpfzAAEeBa
After pressing the send button, Lee asked, "was that Seunghoon?"890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1BTesYEyym
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN57QRv2J3w
"Yep, and he said they aren't going to make it."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLXRk2ot8g
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXblu6CHVf2
"Well, you saw this coming," said Zoey.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTD3bz1mtCN
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmcyaGxzHGj
"And you did well to stall the managers," said Lee. "That will give you some breathing space."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡahSxaxo4m0
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7cLPk7ftO
"We better start working on the song," I said as I went over to the couch where my guitar lay and lifted it to create space to sit. "Where are Mike and Daniel?"890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWF9M42qAcJ
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9aoeJAcWyz
"I can go call them, they are in their room," said Lee.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdxFgOVvDoT
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwR9nwMcpH
She didn't even have to leave the lounge as Mike and Daniel soon appeared.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQtFZ7JtCr
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9s60f803By
"We're working on the song already?" Daniel asked. "Aren't we waiting for the others?"890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbGFWmPnUE
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFxhKugnx1
"They won't make it today," said Zoey as I sat down.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgGRnqh2cRn
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrLkmRHA9rv
"Mmm..., how come?" Mike asked, sounding puzzled.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhFohKuTfmA
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCEB5jlMgm
"They wouldn't say, just that they can't make it, at least that's what Seunghoon told me on behalf of WINNER," I said. "I'm yet to hear from BlackPink."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBApgI7ImN1
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWKlYStYwi
"Bummer," said Daniel as he came to sit right beside me.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1O84KzOiMi
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGrN0fGtYR
"Not to worry, we can still make progress without them. Shall we begin?"890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxf6XYgpXl
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ533ySeDWpF
Mike sat opposite Daniel and I. We first did a recap of the song and continued working on the first verse since that was where we left off. Without the others it was kind of difficult since Mino and Seungyoon came up with great lyrics for the first verse. We had to go with the flow though and it didn't seem so bad.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8LkalCPA3j

We were still on the first verse, checking out sentences and debating whether one word sounded better than the other when my phone rang. It laid on the armrest of the couch. I checked who was calling and rolled my eyes.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0YpxfV346
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8ZtTGYyBD
"Who's calling, Sam?" Daniel asked.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8F9ZmGDAf
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡls359RtGXw
"I'll tell you," said Zoey, "it's G-Dragon. If it's not, then it's probably someone who's just as annoying as he is."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUC7D6OumLq
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyBAsEk8iTB
"It's him, alright," I said as I took the phone and picked up the call. "Hey, GD."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuVVKubzopZ
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNO32ne0QbP
"Hi, I'm in the elevator right now coming to your floor. I'll be there in like 30 seconds."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZTPjR18aWM
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzEv9OohzaF
"Wait, you're....," the line went dead. I stared at the phone.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcIrIzwkxmi
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVGLfLgnYDX
"What is it?" Christine asked.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbti4IkoQhK
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGn3eNPm7Q
We heard the sound of the elevator doors on our floor announcing the arrival of our visitor.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡknyROJfSvC
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqVu2zztjJ
"He's here," I said.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIw61Uatq1R
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP35jbHxkIq
Lee who sat at the dining table, working, asked, "how come we were never informed at the reception of his arrival?"890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgakZcCfxQ
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2a7Av0yGl
"It's because I told them not to," came G-Dragon as he appeared in the lounge.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSPuD3KeMg
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2KTBSdieX9
We turned to look at him. Somehow, I wasn't surprised that he was here.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF9QRqYhJux
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcp9lASk4HK
"Hello, everyone," he greeted as he came to where the five of us, sat.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hWQXZZvIt
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGHcYW5nKl
Four of us, including Lee, replied to his greeting except Zoey who said, "how come you're here?"890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUORALzahB
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBELKmtxHKE
"What's wrong with me being here?" he asked as he shrugged his shoulders.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUhUEHu5cSI
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkexrqq93HM
"For someone who went partying last night, you seem pretty sober."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMUPHaKkIac
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmQBJoCNLl
"Oh.., how did the party go anyway?" Christine asked.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡykJlINZK38
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdNaTkkkKB
"It was great," he said with a happy grin.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0uWfGZv5D
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkrxSRP6bFr
"Zoey has a point, though," said Mike. "For someone who had a great time at the party, you seem pretty sober and...," he snapped his fingers as he tried to think of a word.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5hojOhZPj
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB13aVdSBAX
"Normal?" Daniel suggested. Though he was only joking.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiah6pSNsrt
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7JgCU44sz
"Wait, you think I'm not normal?" G-Dragon asked. He almost looked offended.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaRii1vI2Xu
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZ9CAW4W5q
"Nah, that's not the word, Daniel," said Mike. "It doesn't matter anyway."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI8UR1BbEiV
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDTpJa6tbvv
I looked over at Mike and he had a small smirk on his face that was almost unnoticeable to everyone else. I found Daniel also staring at his brother and then he looked at me. The two of us knew he meant what Daniel said.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7W5bJJC79N
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3tiOqN0Qrq
"We had a blast yesterday," said G-Dragon as he went over to join Mike on the couch. "I thought you checked the photos on Instagram."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNwjxJS25C
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNnpuK1xVyS
"Did you just say 'we?'" I asked as I raised my eyebrow at him.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6iPxO4Xr9
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrRCIgVIL6r
"What?" he asked as if he hadn't heard my question. I felt like he did.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBxFaSBOC1h
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPiVudjuoX4
"You said 'we.' Who else were you with?"890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vZl2wtEKw
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡye9DrMk6f9
"Oh.., just friends, very close..., very good friends," he answered as he nodded his head.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡILryIoPi3i
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtyfVBdoKJZ
"Okay," I said as I slowly nodded back. "I'm glad you had fun."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0g7oEW0GX3
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS0fnZcqIV9
"You guys should have come. It was amazing."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjeVlxacPRm
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRcivIu3LMV
"Too late for that now, isn't it?" Christine asked.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJXC9yh7loC
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDM3UgrfTY
"Yep, too late. But you could still see the pics of how much fun we had."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSXEGgfnCSZ
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPcyGlzuJ1S
"I bet there was plenty of booze too," said Zoey.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrBOUHZC4j
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUqQfv8cwVf
"Plenty," said G-Dragon with a smile.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMw2aOnejUo
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoyOfqtiJIX
I couldn't help but feel something strange with what G-Dragon said a few sentences ago. Maybe I was just imagining things. Any who....890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWq3GzyEZpt
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOoRV1nxsp
"We can check the pics later," I said. "We have a song to write."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hsyaagMwR
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDHyfG59hVl
"The others aren't here yet?" G-Dragon asked. "How can you work on the song without them?"890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHVMmnmqVdQ
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtTpYlUl2mY
"Seunghoon called to tell me they weren't going to make it. I haven't heard anything from BlackPink but I doubt they will come, so I called off the meeting and we are working on it instead."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpZ8fDpJjkw
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXp9fBRn25
"Oh. I think that's fair considering that they must be tired from the party."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtAuvmnTKb
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvT2keKDpXS
I looked at G-Dragon, and so did the rest of the Toxins.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPsoxarDCg4
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2PWZwPsTHJ
"They were with you at the party?" Daniel asked.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyav4d5zGQK
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TCbd9VL5r
"Huh....?" G-Dragon now looked like the confused one. "I thought you knew."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHmICSMWSy
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGBmsqwCqo
"How would we know when we were resting yesterday and we were completely off social media?" Christine asked.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimlWu2nuXs
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcoU6Lv665d
G-Dragon shrugged his shoulders. He left our floor early yesterday, so he had no idea that we all agreed to rest and continue working on the song later. Can't blame him for that.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkOvd1RPHVm
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCWjjvBMZsS
"You dragged them to the party, didn't you?" Zoey asked as she pointed a finger at him. "You're such a manipulator!"890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIeyJJ3V39Z
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DxCdTI1Rt
"I didn't convince them, I swear," he said as he raised his hands in surrender. But then he looked at me and lowered them. "Okay..., maybe a little."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5R4Q38usO7
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm29ECdONw7
"I knew it!" Zoey said with a look on her face.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpN8ZB2nOXQ
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2OShkancc2
"But ninety percent of the whole convincing thing was on the other guy."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbu5iKD3GBr
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJs2HFCxLHi
"The other guy?" Mike asked as he raised his eyebrows.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡymyV0UBzTi
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5mv2U3YNl
"Who's the other guy?" Christine asked.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbs1V2ExFOd
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWHfWwsZXs
I knew there was something fishy about G-Dragon's earlier statements. He didn't just go and party with "just" close friends.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GDk44hYq4
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAhaatcuhU
"Tell us," Zoey demanded when G-Dragon didn't speak.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWs1NMrsLM8
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ40rq6lWzRD
We looked at him as he also stared back at each one of us. The look in his eyes made me realise that he didn't want to talk for fear of what might happen next.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTIeOvZZnPx
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0yFINHo1Rf
"Looks like you lost your tongue, GD," said Daniel. "Please tell us who you were with. I don't think it's that much of a big deal."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ipS1Cfaa6
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2lG2m6vIxS
G-Dragon squeezed his eyes shut in fright. And just like that, we knew it was a big deal.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMHvx31dLMp
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjD9iNAdCX
"Goodness, just tell us, GD," I said. "We have a song to work on and you're just wasting our time."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4s7iEIe2gY
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWTBRBjMcb
"It was a mistake coming here," said G-Dragon as he nervously stood up from the couch. "I better get going. Sorry for disturbing you."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXJG3tqGSH
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNII0BxwwQ2
All five of us stood up and surrounded him. It was five against one and he knew he couldn't stand a chance. We came closer, making it tight for him to leave.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xnX3Rmd32
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxPM5ov5CJ
"GD, sit down, please," I instructed him and he did.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxkVH2QyPX
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIzKQhvt381
"Now," said Zoey as she cracked her knuckles. "You're going to answer our questions. You don't want to receive these babies," she gestured to her fists, "on your face."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTEcInhHE2
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JBwIPPCk2
"Okay, okay," G-Dragon surrendered. "I'll tell you."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8v8vVfyBWH
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTB7ygpMGci
"First question," said Christine with her arms folded. "Who were you with downstairs when you left our floor yesterday?"890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMnOVu3OzyQ
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsLscYEHrjz
G-Dragon gulped as he looked at us. "You won't like the answer I am about to give you. You will kill me before I even leave this place."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjCaAx5FVN
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnfnomWQnLk
"We will make sure to bury you in a lovely place, promise," said Mike. "Now, spill."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLrI7F55oiQ
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhdL6y0tGUZ
G-Dragon sat upright and cleared his throat. "When I came out of the elevator, I saw..., I saw this guy. He recognised me immediately and said he was a big fan..., and so....., we talked for a while. We got along well...., and then that's when the others came..."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLDLeufym5s
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJHO5ucXAZZ
"GD, we don't want to hear how you all met," I said, "we want a name. Who is the guy?"890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPQ0H7uXRa
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jFNY6ZkBb
"It's..., it's..., Johnny," said G-Dragon. He immediately looked down at the floor.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdkyfK5DrL
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1gm39Xh0Z
"Johnny Jerkins!" the five of us said at the same time.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfMh3Pg3JvI
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxpw1aJFb4g
"Yes," G-Dragon as he slowly nodded his head, still facing downwards.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxXazicK6V
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvci1PHRw6q
Zoey fell onto the couch next to G-Dragon like she was about to pass out, her hand on her forehead.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgoeGJRqekh
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKUOKEm36P
"I can't believe it" she said.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbugrpIVGQ
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgT0IFkAqdC
"That explains everything," I said, as I looked at a certain part of the wall above the couch, my mind far off.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKq3amlsckD
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxSv1QXQNL
"No wonder they couldn't make it," said Daniel.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJYOL5zDqq
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Qupnd4pE4
"They didn't just go to the party, they were hanging out with Johnny," said Mike.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQh0NMYhBI
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbon7vSXsQw
"Ya...., you won't like what I am about to show you," said Lee behind us.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEP8gph6KQ
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9XqKgAix7n
We all turned to look at Lee as she approached with a tablet in her hands. She went to sit on the couch I had been sitting on with Daniel. I went to sit next to her, Christine on her other side. Mike and Daniel went over to stand at the back of the couch so as to see more clearly on the tablet.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqWHWFrCieR
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGysqLiJgEi
She was on Instagram and she had gone on one of G-Dragon's fan pages. One of the first photos we saw of last night was a picture of him and Johnny staring at the camera and smiling. They had hands over each other's shoulders like they were best buddies.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWk75hKfpmb
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5TrQBkJdcc
It was definitely Johnny Jerkins alright. His white blonde hair cropped to the sides and a strand of it falling above his right blue eye. He was almost G-Dragon's height and he had on a white shirt and brown khaki shorts. I noticed their surrounding and I couldn't help but ask:890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOiiorAVPz5
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJAl5MviPWS
"You guys had a party on a boat?" I looked at G-Dragon.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbYbytiPCua
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuW0rWJ7qxc
"What! A cruise party!" Zoey yelled as she sat up quickly. She looked like she had woken from her slumber as she went to stand alongside my two brothers.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCe4XZNqMu8
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTDPgNvsKU
Lee continued to scroll down the page and more pictures came up. This time, there were some of BlackPink and WINNER having a good time with Johnny and G-Dragon. There were other pictures with fans who wanted to take pics with the K-Pop superstars.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvR9u59tsNy
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDaRkN5JYw
"You guys had such a good time," said Zoey. "I wish I came."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoBFOfv5c5A
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxW2K5FdWs
"You see, you guys should have tagged along," said G-Dragon.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9AzwgnFtp
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3f2zKH1UAt
"And hang out with Johnny? Heck no!" Zoey detested.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3sFA2yJpg
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVC5vrL9sa7
"He seems pretty cool."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr7Tgcc2p2p
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMIHSSjf5aW
"That's because you only just met him," said Daniel.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6YovpXHE3
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLw1bWowFZ0
"You won't be hanging out with him more often, will you?" Christine asked.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFe9PtjHwq
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfS8XM4Qmju
"Nah," G-Dragon denied. "I guess all that was just a one time thing."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvvDG6nDzw8
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvN3HWe5Fvn
"That's what they all say," said Zoey. I imagined her rolling her eyes when she said that.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjqxCERGlq
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8awgdRC466
"And let's not forget, he's in this hotel," I said. "Avoiding him will be tricky."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWCrcMFHwM
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuWLllhjBNK
"Don't you think maybe you guys are taking this thing a little too far?" G-Dragon asked.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcr0H9YY3u2
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk9S4PcWmUZ
"What thing?" Christine asked. Her eyes were still fixed on the tablet as Lee continued to scroll.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjlOtIK0flq
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvA6tbeJWvc
"This 'Johnny' thing?"890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Zw32y6m03
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ7A0sjeQr7
I looked up from the tablet at G-Dragon and I knew I wasn't the only one.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPabqUR4cL
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV694LbuS0e
"Why would we?" I asked.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTEFHXqrikh
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiV2OdGj28p
"You talk about him as if he's your worst enemy."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrn1fa5iM6E
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3i7vBynZ8e
"Look, we don't hate people, well, maybe some," said Mike. "It's just that some people aren't worth hanging out with."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkOacseUYtH
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRISUSU7MS
"Because of his actions back at school? Please, that was a long time ago."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxl1v5IOVWX
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZrPWb7iffZ
"You're right," said Zoey. "It was a long time ago, but we would rather keep our distance. Some people are just toxic, you know?"890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSaCu23zsec
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjcbMZmWgF0
"How ironic," said G-Dragon as he stood up from the couch.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0IzhjRlev
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQfApAYx2L7
"Leaving already?" Lee asked.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8soq2TwVlR
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv240VH8W5R
"Ya, I really should. Just came to check up on the progress with the song."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2elgnMPkBu
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQYBhHCdyN
G-Dragon didn't seem like himself. I looked at him and this time I didn't give him a criticising look like I always do. I could tell he was upset if not sad.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5jVy9UGAGc
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOneP7jmHs
"I'll escort you to the elevator," I said as I stood up from the couch.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaakWvZ2j54
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpvfyoD0f6
"Ok," he said and he turned to address the others, "I'll see you guys later."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZo8aZtGMq
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSPMwHmhUXn
"Bye, GD," the rest replied at the same time. Their tone sounded low almost as if they didn't want to upset him any further.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVUVOMjnZ5
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNhU4OhYBco
G-Dragon made his way out of the lounge and I was right behind him.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfuW22ADXVs
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqIJutQdbsb
"Well, you seem upset," I said to him when we were in the hall.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKEBpn6IrF
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Oz3HK4XJK
"No, I'm not," he said as he shrugged his shoulders.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZLeEZ31Aq
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡciK3UbHUkm
I held his shoulder and he stopped walking, his back still facing me.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn3LlWCA09T
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXyY8R5Qqt
"I know when you're upset," I said as I dropped my hand. "I think the others know too."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7etFyDqxH
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡscMpRpvoUC
He turned around to look at me. "I don't get you guys at all," he said.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkmRRKUOxai
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk4B2hjGILY
"What do you mean?" I folded my arms.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZcx6wAIWB
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuaiTAJvnBM
"I mean, you guys are the nicest and coolest people I have ever met and I never thought you would be so spiteful about someone. You weren't all like this when you were dealing with Jehan...., well, maybe Zoey, but even she wasn't so extreme."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBeYOo6AVdR
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJ1VwIcBuk
"We aren't perfect, you know? We have our emotions too, whether good or bad."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFg62GAab2
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4KUMHFQCWZ
"But why hate on Johnny so much?"890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsn5L2LWyj
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOONDzx7py
I shook my head. "We don't hate him. We do hate what he did to us in the past, but we don't actually hate him."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzHC3VZSHWF
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVcljKdmwQ
"Really?"890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEAJlotqpBV
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBGGkz2Olhp
"If we really did, we would have called him worse names than 'jerk' now, wouldn't we?"890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFzukLrHVSA
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUp0g5WjR52
G-Dragon bit his lip and he didn't have to admit I was right. "Then why can't you come to peace with him?" he asked. "You don't even want to cross paths with him, like ever."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyJLyVbcQGz
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡokdLs6eL34
I sighed as I dropped my arms. "Some people aren't worth mingling around with, Jiyong."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2JxqZ76Lc
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT7urs2HuGq
"Is there something you aren't telling me?" He raised his eyebrow at me and took a step closer.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRL4iaD8SF
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4jkmEpjH8E
I shrugged my shoulders. "Kind of," I answered. "You're yet to know everything in due time."890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsEoP7JYMz1
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlGB8a6pkdh
G-Dragon slowly nodded his head. I could tell that he understood and is willing to wait. But for how long is the million dollar question.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ93G4LR2zMN
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLUWlkKzZ3
"Okay, I'll see you around, then," said G-Dragon as he managed to smile.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOXyh9Ts24w
890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAcGDN7jlr

For a moment, we didn't say a thing as Lee stood up from the couch, taking the tablet with her back to the dining table. The others who stood went to take their seats. For a moment, some of us sat, slumped on the couch.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2opVpm5mj4

"Aren't you guys going to continue working on the song?" Lee asked at the dining area. We had been quiet for what felt like forever.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmuSzniaajh

The five of us all looked at each other. It was surprising we wanted something sweet to boost our spirits. We needed some fresh air too. We all turned to look at Lee who sighed. She needed a doughnut too.890Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZK7My0rDXH
