"Okay, so here are the lyrics for the song," I said after writing them down.627Please respect copyright.PENANAFGQpM9MR0Z
627Please respect copyright.PENANAMwL1xoyBYN
Everyone's attention automatically turned to me. They all fell silent. I read out the lyrics first then sang them out.
"So, what do you think?" I asked, addressing the question towards BAP.627Please respect copyright.PENANAsoJlGdmySi
627Please respect copyright.PENANA0RJT8QwG3L
"Just admit it," said Zoey, "the song is awesome."627Please respect copyright.PENANAmdr0HDwVhV
627Please respect copyright.PENANAToDVgJjN2s
"Zoey." Christine gave her a look that told her to keep quiet. "Let the others take it in first."627Please respect copyright.PENANABxmwkwpZL7
627Please respect copyright.PENANA8RvRbecoma
"Zoey's right," said Daehyun. "The lyrics are great."627Please respect copyright.PENANAJAixKyEduF
627Please respect copyright.PENANAK6EgPXZzY9
"I now get what Daniel said," said Zelo, "the song is meant to be sad, but it's fun to sing. You can hear it with the way Sam sang it out."627Please respect copyright.PENANAICGRaR6IQe
627Please respect copyright.PENANAzHv7YGzuTP
"You should listen to the tune," said Mike. "You'll love it."627Please respect copyright.PENANAXUJPP0wceH
627Please respect copyright.PENANAqnalisvbru
"I bet that's why you went searching for the guitar," said Jongup as he looked at me.627Please respect copyright.PENANAI6aolN8fDk
627Please respect copyright.PENANABwnWijZnAM
"Play the guitar, Sam," Himchan insisted. "We're all dying to hear it. I bet Yong-guk can't wait any longer."627Please respect copyright.PENANApUL3dpjhnF
627Please respect copyright.PENANApLwEL0kHYm
"Huh?" Yong-guk looked at Himchan beside him, looking confused. "No, I'm not."627Please respect copyright.PENANAMCHTVVTtw9
627Please respect copyright.PENANA02ognnKYkf
"Of course you are," said Yong-nam as he gave his brother a raised eyebrow. "Don't forget, I'm your twin."627Please respect copyright.PENANAr0c7YflJQI
627Please respect copyright.PENANAreOjRx6Rxe
"Okay," I said as I took the guitar that had been laying on the table the whole time. "Let me play it, then."627Please respect copyright.PENANAG09teCAgto
627Please respect copyright.PENANANvrnYVrXZL
I positioned the guitar properly before me with my crossed legs supporting it. Before I started to strum the strings, I took in a deep breath. I played out the tune first. Afterwards, I started to sing out the chorus. It wasn't long so it ended sooner than expected.627Please respect copyright.PENANAZIZPtl0my4
627Please respect copyright.PENANASdg3QaLYaa
"Wow," said Young-jae, looking at me like he's just seen something's dazzled him. "The song's going to sound awesome."627Please respect copyright.PENANA91avIxHGDY
627Please respect copyright.PENANAj2tudtpT7A
"Thanks," I said. "Oh, before I forget," I reached out for the pencil on the table and started to write something down. "We also worked on the first verse, but we couldn't finish it up yesterday. We were having a little trouble with the words so we want to see what you guys think."627Please respect copyright.PENANACMjbIQsWvr
627Please respect copyright.PENANABRJic3eQGb
"Alright," said Yong-guk, looking to see what I was writing on the paper. "Whatever it is, I bet we can handle it."627Please respect copyright.PENANAUF1HQ8D33Q
627Please respect copyright.PENANAfktoVGFapO
"Can't wait to see you try," said Christine. "But then again, if it's you two l'm not worried."627Please respect copyright.PENANABCuD8WKnVV
627Please respect copyright.PENANAJ0D6BpdLJ2
"There you go again, Christine," I said after writing down the lyrics. "Okay, here we are." I laid down the pencil aside on the table.627Please respect copyright.PENANA30entjyE0w
627Please respect copyright.PENANAb820JmAXtF
I felt Jongup lean closer so as to see what I had written. I leaned to the side a little, but his blond hair almost covered my face. I couldn't help but take a sniff. His hair smelt really nice. Well, this seems unusual. I tried to lean away further so as not to smell him.627Please respect copyright.PENANAoJjgLnEu8K
627Please respect copyright.PENANACdK9ns5Wce
"Come on, Jongup," Zelo complained. "You're distracting Sam. We all want to hear what she has written."627Please respect copyright.PENANAX2TYoONrcA
627Please respect copyright.PENANAbAOE5tHsvP
"I don't think that I'm distracting her," said Jongup as he looked at Zelo. "Right, Sam?"627Please respect copyright.PENANAaiGlpLxZdx
627Please respect copyright.PENANA9JK6jLM5G1
It's when he turned his head to look at me that I yelped and leaned back further than before, almost falling to the floor. Instead, I ended up leaning on Yong-nam.627Please respect copyright.PENANAPgBfRiwf5k
627Please respect copyright.PENANATT49e7l98o
Jongup looked at me with a puzzled look on his face. It's either he didn't know what he was about to do or he knew and was just playing dumb.627Please respect copyright.PENANA9TKvyPJgxK
627Please respect copyright.PENANAZ3HzXFFkPS
"What's wrong, Sam?" he asked.627Please respect copyright.PENANA58PH1ky29X
627Please respect copyright.PENANAvyT5j09FUi
I suddenly blushed. He really didn't know that he had almost planted a kiss on me. Anyway, it's best not to tell him. I hope the others hadn't noticed.627Please respect copyright.PENANApL4TCOdcJt
627Please respect copyright.PENANAbcDyqe8muj
"Goodness, Jongup," said Mike, "you almost kissed my sister."627Please respect copyright.PENANADSGVzk5fvC
627Please respect copyright.PENANAKfFcFl51ur
And it just had to be Mike. Goodness, me!627Please respect copyright.PENANAZsCcEiy5OD
627Please respect copyright.PENANA1ryhvhS65Z
"Huh?" Jongup looked surprised. "I did?"627Please respect copyright.PENANAXH0nkYoX6H
627Please respect copyright.PENANAB2LSY2zTb5
"And you were this close," said Zoey indicating a tiny space with her index finger and thumb.627Please respect copyright.PENANAD8ePh7tplG
627Please respect copyright.PENANA2hVl03c8mr
"Oh...," Jongup turned to look at me. I was still leaning onto Yong-nam's shoulder. "I'm so sorry, Sam. Maybe I shouldn't have leaned in too close."627Please respect copyright.PENANAjRgYG9RtqD
627Please respect copyright.PENANAERwObiqNap
"You see, I told you so," said Zelo.627Please respect copyright.PENANAPrVRhHNCpw
627Please respect copyright.PENANAgT36a89Rxr
"No, I'm okay," I said as I sat upright. "Sorry for leaning on you like that, Yong-nam. I hope I'm not too heavy."627Please respect copyright.PENANAkETg4wTa7a
627Please respect copyright.PENANANxLu4qFY2T
Yong-nam cleared his throat. "Not at all," he answered. "You're actually pretty light."627Please respect copyright.PENANAqfsL1OqVhM
627Please respect copyright.PENANAG2sWM5vmYg
I nervously laughed, not sure whether he meant it or not.627Please respect copyright.PENANAsBFoMHIA9G
627Please respect copyright.PENANAUEXscKbX9K
"Wow," said Zoey as she delightfully clapped her hands together. "First Sam avoids Jongup from kissing her and then she leans onto Yong-nam who prevents her from falling. So sweet."627Please respect copyright.PENANA74sIafAnkv
627Please respect copyright.PENANA2zKDy0GEP3
"You're such a fantasist, Zoey," said Daniel as he shook his head.627Please respect copyright.PENANABJ3GfVrAwD
627Please respect copyright.PENANAvS0GkQ7EFY
"Don't mind her," I said. "Can we forget the kissing incident and focus on the song, please?"627Please respect copyright.PENANAVGOwYcwhdJ
627Please respect copyright.PENANAqqJnYDTEmx
"Sure," said Mike. "That's if we can reset Zoey's brain or else she won't stop talking about it."627Please respect copyright.PENANA30qok4Yddn
627Please respect copyright.PENANAGeegZqeSEf
"Are you saying that I'm kookoo?" Zoey asked, looking at Mike.627Please respect copyright.PENANAOS1hC79a1h
627Please respect copyright.PENANA2ZAZxvOHPe
"You can argue later, you two," I said, giving them a look. "Let's try and focus."627Please respect copyright.PENANADTJIs14Hui
627Please respect copyright.PENANAji7a84ggIm
I went back to looking at the paper in front of me and read out the lyrics for them. Just like we did with BAP's song, we started coming up with lyrics. But this time, it proved to be a lot difficult than we expected. Whatever we came up with didn't really fit with the song.627Please respect copyright.PENANAmxZz6S0pA6
627Please respect copyright.PENANAcPe4ruLnoA
"Is it just me or something's just off?" Young-jae asked.627Please respect copyright.PENANAIauy8pKRe7
627Please respect copyright.PENANAaGCQ25nxeV
"I think I feel what you mean," said Zoey as she scratched her head.627Please respect copyright.PENANAL26X0VEz5h
627Please respect copyright.PENANAFPt0AA6PUh
"Huh? What's Zoey saying?" Himchan asked.627Please respect copyright.PENANAjPnw3AXGY7
627Please respect copyright.PENANAizGHIltFGk
"I told you we should've rewired her brain a little," said Mike as he turned to look at me. I shook my head. Zoey on the other hand, ignored him. That's so unlike her.627Please respect copyright.PENANA4nV8s6wBhV
627Please respect copyright.PENANAEzpgCUtq4g
"I feel we aren't working like we did the first time," said Christine.627Please respect copyright.PENANAVXJ1WdyR9m
627Please respect copyright.PENANAcspyiixfoS
"Ya, that's what I meant," said Zoey.627Please respect copyright.PENANAMOqw47Wnpy
627Please respect copyright.PENANAcOqDzUtylT
"We just aren't coming up with the right lyrics," said Yong-guk, "that's all."627Please respect copyright.PENANAwRX8MfuGTh
627Please respect copyright.PENANAvw7P8A0YrN
"Why is that?" Himchan asked.627Please respect copyright.PENANAGGs1tndImh
627Please respect copyright.PENANAieCUUhgnOj
"Who knows," said Daniel. "What do you think, Sam?"627Please respect copyright.PENANAfYOoYPaO1w
627Please respect copyright.PENANARRQ4kxAZvm
I shrugged my shoulders as I also couldn't figure out why we found it so difficult. I scratched the back of my head and pouted my lip a little.627Please respect copyright.PENANAaLsd2lfICj
627Please respect copyright.PENANA435L5mOhxn
"You look like you're about to cry, Sam," said Jongup.627Please respect copyright.PENANAF6o92FxuiQ
627Please respect copyright.PENANA5R8K7qx5Xs
"Don't mind me," I said. "I'm frustrated that we're going nowhere."627Please respect copyright.PENANAuTYOQpdHKF
627Please respect copyright.PENANAnToTLTqko6
"Maybe we're all just tired," said Zelo.627Please respect copyright.PENANAT5ailzq3qF
627Please respect copyright.PENANAN7z1AVLY9B
"I felt we rested enough," said Daehyun.627Please respect copyright.PENANA3U5EiGQD1h
627Please respect copyright.PENANAShGSgONAwo
"Or maybe we've been in the same place for too long," I suggested. "Sometimes the environment contributes greatly."627Please respect copyright.PENANA2okZLv3hqM
627Please respect copyright.PENANAHAs82x0gzU
"Maybe," said Yong-guk.627Please respect copyright.PENANA97UpoEOkER
627Please respect copyright.PENANAyHyBJghnOa
"What do you think, Yong-nam?" Christine asked as she turned to look at him.627Please respect copyright.PENANAWkxWCQUuCX
627Please respect copyright.PENANAIUZors5Wui
He raised his arms up to stretch. As soon as he put them down, he said, "I think we're all just tired. We exhausted ourselves working on BAP's piece and thought we would do the same with this one. If you ask me, we should just call it a day and continue tomorrow."627Please respect copyright.PENANAo7IDedIWFJ
627Please respect copyright.PENANAhHevFhpuhQ
"Tomorrow?" Daniel looked shocked at the idea. "Won't that be a little too late for us?"627Please respect copyright.PENANA8iNC1Aw02Z
627Please respect copyright.PENANANIE37Cn7nd
"You're right," I said as I slapped my forehead. "We've to meet the songwriters and composers for the album. We won't have enough time."627Please respect copyright.PENANArRJ3UgV5Y1
627Please respect copyright.PENANAqTnbLoM6MJ
"Not forgetting that we should at least have something to present to Yang Hyun-suk," said Zoey.627Please respect copyright.PENANAIFOaMdM0Vh
627Please respect copyright.PENANAGZSpJoDIWB
"I told Collins to buy me more time, but I doubt Yang Hyun-suk will even want to hear it. Goodness, just thinking about it feels overwhelming." I buried my face into my hands.627Please respect copyright.PENANAOUIFWgCpa3
627Please respect copyright.PENANA0JUmhT6DHf
"Now I wish we never had to make an album," said Zoey as she leaned back on the chair and sighed.627Please respect copyright.PENANAtm4znZX52P
627Please respect copyright.PENANAMEYr5Azelv
"Wow, you guys are working on an album?" Jongup asked.627Please respect copyright.PENANAHwgmYrF5XF
627Please respect copyright.PENANAYBurFkERF8
"Yep," I answered as I lifted my face up from my hands. "Our managers are ambitious."627Please respect copyright.PENANAP3DnqBKEg1
627Please respect copyright.PENANA0CdpfvJ610
"At least we don't have to worry about the other songs," said Zoey.627Please respect copyright.PENANA6AGdhV4fXE
627Please respect copyright.PENANAWGRFINhnjp
"But you heard what Collins said this morning, Zoey. This one has to be awesome. But the way we're so exhausted, I feel we aren't going anywhere."627Please respect copyright.PENANAaFz4x74p2m
627Please respect copyright.PENANArFHPiI5IfO
"I think we should take a little break," said Yong-nam.627Please respect copyright.PENANAzqdb2kKL3m
627Please respect copyright.PENANAP66lwb8Xba
I went back first onto the floor with my eyes closed. I really did feel exhausted. Why did fatigue have to settle in like this?627Please respect copyright.PENANAQwT3fCJqP7
627Please respect copyright.PENANA2THRwOT2Fo
"You're scaring me, Sam," I heard Yong-guk say.627Please respect copyright.PENANALtltNaRxY3
627Please respect copyright.PENANAY3vNNdE9zJ
"Oh, don't mind her," said Zoey. "She started this and finding a way to finish it is frustrating."627Please respect copyright.PENANAxdSYIkJzn0
627Please respect copyright.PENANAbZ8QwNHZkc
I smiled a little at what Zoey said. Starting something and not finishing it really is frustrating, especially if it involves something that you really love to do. And with time ticking by, Yang Hyun-suk and Collins will have no choice but to be disappointed tomorrow.627Please respect copyright.PENANAjGG7FT42eH
627Please respect copyright.PENANAZm4zSFT1Ow
"Wait..., does this mean we won't have the reward Lee was talking about?" I heard Daniel ask.627Please respect copyright.PENANANaeEjZQmRc
627Please respect copyright.PENANA2GQLoEw3Gm
I opened my eyes as I remembered Daesung's invitation. I really wish I could tell them the truth, but I held my tongue. Even if we leave this place without much progress, Lee won't hold us back because it isn't much of a reward, but an invitation to go out for an outdoor movie. I sat up.627Please respect copyright.PENANArZoXVhv9GS
627Please respect copyright.PENANAQGy1UOt586
"Don't worry about that, Daniel," I said. "Lee will give us that reward."627Please respect copyright.PENANAfsEcWM6fEj
627Please respect copyright.PENANAFl67dZDTJM
"For someone who seems tired, you sound pretty confident," said Himchan.627Please respect copyright.PENANAQK68wzHHIJ
627Please respect copyright.PENANAoXUT4XRSbN
"I just know." I smiled at him as I shrugged my shoulders.627Please respect copyright.PENANAHMAuPYJYdH
627Please respect copyright.PENANAyaIb8Dcb4S
"Do you've any idea what it could be?" Daniel asked.627Please respect copyright.PENANAVPrKJXRd0Z
627Please respect copyright.PENANA3ftDbKpGhe
I shook my head. It's best it turns out as a surprise.627Please respect copyright.PENANABOckIsJtCI
627Please respect copyright.PENANA3MwZYAvwLv
"So, what are we going to do now?" Zelo asked. "Just sit and do nothing?"627Please respect copyright.PENANAWsRGxSuetb
627Please respect copyright.PENANAlSgQp0hxBm
"We can do something fun to pass the time," Christine suggested.627Please respect copyright.PENANAxHftJ2LWPr
627Please respect copyright.PENANAbV75LgpvFg
"Not me," I went back to lying down on the floor.627Please respect copyright.PENANAk1cXTvTDXf
627Please respect copyright.PENANAUCt5SFSI4w
No one said a word. I could feel a few eyes on me, while others, I'm guessing, gave each other looks.627Please respect copyright.PENANAzEGtAyc7Ts
627Please respect copyright.PENANAm9p4hudQGN
"Come on, Sam," said Zoey. "You're such a party pooper."627Please respect copyright.PENANABzUPvwGCh5
627Please respect copyright.PENANA5wEscG3f7e
"Haven't heard you call me that in a while," I said as I smiled at the ceiling.627Please respect copyright.PENANAu0HshcwAHw
627Please respect copyright.PENANAAIYsW3m9oJ
"Get up, will you? This is no time to be lying down."627Please respect copyright.PENANAOz04SCSwyw
627Please respect copyright.PENANAKvRaRQ8jJF
"There's nothing wrong with lying down to rest, is there?"627Please respect copyright.PENANADKc1iRicNY
627Please respect copyright.PENANANTHXJKXpTy
"Goodness, me." Zoey sounded frustrated. She couldn't argue over that and she knew it.627Please respect copyright.PENANAde8Iuy1mci
627Please respect copyright.PENANA1yC3YfPLqu
"Maybe we should call Lee to pick us up," Mike suggested.627Please respect copyright.PENANA70xCS8JhgJ
627Please respect copyright.PENANAFD4IKUWFGF
"Don't bother," I said as I closed my eyes. "With us not under her radar anymore she's probably doing something for herself right now."627Please respect copyright.PENANAdBjZqxZQGG
627Please respect copyright.PENANAXAA5XvdTSN
I heard Zelo and Daehyun chuckle while I heard Christine and Zoey mutter out in frustration.627Please respect copyright.PENANApoq7Qltdp4
627Please respect copyright.PENANArhL80ssSij
"Looks like you're stuck here with us until Lee comes to pick you up," I heard Yong-guk say.627Please respect copyright.PENANAJW7ZlmfSog
627Please respect copyright.PENANABB0nKGOy36
"But we can't sit here doing nothing," said Daniel. "Like Christine said, we better find something to do."627Please respect copyright.PENANAtnni6iB4am
627Please respect copyright.PENANAETT4FOggFm
"You should be resting," I suggested, my eyes still closed.627Please respect copyright.PENANAwjWQvyUeBK
627Please respect copyright.PENANAfnhUamEnGn
"Well, we don't want to," said Zoey. I imagined her folding her arms and looking at me like she would at Mike when he got her angry.627Please respect copyright.PENANAn8AJMZBlTH
627Please respect copyright.PENANA3IOrbcOSTs
I smiled. "Suit yourself."627Please respect copyright.PENANAXXKVvWKEfN
627Please respect copyright.PENANAgT3N5cFaRM
"No one wants to do karaoke in the recording booth?" Jongup suggested.627Please respect copyright.PENANA1ZRiL26K97
627Please respect copyright.PENANAK1Eq0D88Mp
"I think we've done enough singing for one day," said Daehyun.627Please respect copyright.PENANA7BQOtBWQm8
627Please respect copyright.PENANAf5Tb8ZKwlG
"I agree," said Zoey.627Please respect copyright.PENANAHrg2zZyA26
627Please respect copyright.PENANAzN4FT8jfp6
"If there's clearly nothing to do, then I think we should be resting like Sam's doing right now," said Yong-guk.627Please respect copyright.PENANAxqNYa87tMr
627Please respect copyright.PENANA89bm0CaaKV
"I like your thinking," I said with my eyes closed. I raised my hand to give him a thumbs up.627Please respect copyright.PENANAmblMa5UqoW
627Please respect copyright.PENANAulZyeLio8d
"You songwriters all think the same," I heard Christine mutter.627Please respect copyright.PENANAdr7aWeqNxb
627Please respect copyright.PENANA0wJe1TyNfJ
"I might not agree with all this," Mike started to say, "but I'm going through with Sam's idea. I'm just going to lean back on the couch a little."627Please respect copyright.PENANAM5FU4Hlmun
627Please respect copyright.PENANAXnDNMo24Tt
"Huh? Not you too, Mike," said Zoey, sounding surprised.627Please respect copyright.PENANAX3NGNFGtPE
627Please respect copyright.PENANAK1QFRbWKpp
"Quit it, Zoey." I heard him move on the couch, obviously putting himself in a more comfortable position. "There's nothing to do. Why not relax for a bit?"627Please respect copyright.PENANAOpxMk88co0
627Please respect copyright.PENANAEQZ9mAIJvS
"I shouldn't be surprised coming from you."627Please respect copyright.PENANAlmCSYsEVkY
627Please respect copyright.PENANA1UxUmyOasC
"Ya, ya, ya, Zoey. I'm the bad guy here. Doesn't matter now, does it?"627Please respect copyright.PENANAzHxtiX7EL2
627Please respect copyright.PENANAHOwcYMibY9
"Well, if there's nothing for you guys to do at the moment, then I'm going to work on something," said Yong-guk.627Please respect copyright.PENANAJgZJ1MtKqS
627Please respect copyright.PENANA3SmN0NGJoA
"And what could that be?" Young-jae asked.627Please respect copyright.PENANACHy4qop2Mg
627Please respect copyright.PENANAIZMee3wKwX
"Our song, of course."627Please respect copyright.PENANAdMj1icERdj
627Please respect copyright.PENANASYcvpeUDAP
"You go ahead and do that," I said.627Please respect copyright.PENANAt4wfzajarG
627Please respect copyright.PENANAqcXvzgkhVm
There came an awkward pause and I opened one eye to look at him.627Please respect copyright.PENANAeIF2Gotum0
627Please respect copyright.PENANAQMnJOKXtkJ
"You look surprised, Yong-guk," said Yong-nam. He took the words right out of my mouth.627Please respect copyright.PENANA2WyX2c1yGB
627Please respect copyright.PENANADlK4qo5YtE
"I thought that would get Sam up from the floor since she seems to really like helping out," said Yong-guk.627Please respect copyright.PENANAgXURK7cfVQ
627Please respect copyright.PENANAAsYspNRTzt
"I'm drained," I said as I closed my one eye and placed my open palm under my head. "As exciting as it sounds, I'll pass."627Please respect copyright.PENANAAgNYjlF8fV
627Please respect copyright.PENANAdvaMesOfK7
"Okay, then," said Yong-guk. "And you, Mike?"627Please respect copyright.PENANAYTmxonFlu0
627Please respect copyright.PENANA6ifOIVPYTw
"I'll pass too," said Mike.627Please respect copyright.PENANAxxRx8o2pnU
627Please respect copyright.PENANAJtiGD6EzZL
"Okay. I'll be by the console. Any of you guys want to join me?"627Please respect copyright.PENANA3MJPQRykOp
627Please respect copyright.PENANAXcBdB7AiP0
"Well...," Zelo sounded hesitant and I heard a scratching sound across the table. I imagined he was scratching his head, wondering whether to go or not. "Me too," he finally said. "I don't feel like working on the song right now."627Please respect copyright.PENANAO1AfCiVV7l
627Please respect copyright.PENANAfofK9yncUM
"I'm going to relax over here too," said Young-jae.627Please respect copyright.PENANA5X2DgDww0V
627Please respect copyright.PENANAdjxiLzSwhR
"What's up with everyone?" Yong-guk asked, sounding surprised.627Please respect copyright.PENANAd4JxCsaZNS
627Please respect copyright.PENANAp1GiPkOGjP
"Like Yong-nam said, we're tired," I said as I sat up. "The best thing to do right now is relax."627Please respect copyright.PENANA4mMryBDx8J
627Please respect copyright.PENANAeuElyMeXTn
"Aren't you worried about not making progress on your song?"627Please respect copyright.PENANA49g2U9wb4K
627Please respect copyright.PENANAymHy0L6Kxj
"I was about to ask the same question," said Zoey with a sulky look on her face. 627Please respect copyright.PENANAt9Ejp2pY6R
627Please respect copyright.PENANATZRX2JnbKu
I shrugged. "At first I was, but right now, I need to relax a little before my brain explodes. Don't let me stop you from working on your song."627Please respect copyright.PENANAE5oW10CCLr
627Please respect copyright.PENANAcMlMultFJq
"Alright, then," said Yong-nam as he also slept on the floor. "Looks like I can also rest. Keeping your eyes on time can be tiring too."627Please respect copyright.PENANAkUAcVBocTB
627Please respect copyright.PENANAp9qFTMhqpg
"You of all people shouldn't even be sleeping," said Yong-guk.627Please respect copyright.PENANAE83NV8Yd4P
627Please respect copyright.PENANAa0HelwJxH1
I laughed. As much as I wanted to hear these two brothers argue, it ended there. I went back to sleeping on the floor.627Please respect copyright.PENANA3iOGxtpTdl
627Please respect copyright.PENANAfKjozK6HZg
"I'm going to join the relaxing spree too," said Jongup, as he pulled out his phone from his pocket and slept on the floor beside me.627Please respect copyright.PENANANdOe3g8yNl
627Please respect copyright.PENANAxPz41XJpQX
"Looks like the majority wins," said Himchan as he chuckled.627Please respect copyright.PENANAw3V4sNWV6N
627Please respect copyright.PENANA723qsEp4cC
Zoey mourned in frustration. Even I could tell she's tired. She had no choice but to give in.627Please respect copyright.PENANAMKfMaPlvHa
627Please respect copyright.PENANAPYbF5iLyWl
"Oh, man!" Daniel muttered out loud.627Please respect copyright.PENANALRPH4st0Jo
627Please respect copyright.PENANAg9I1rchtHk
I lifted my head from the floor to see what Daniel's doing. He had his phone out too and tapping at it. He's probably playing a game.627Please respect copyright.PENANAjZa6pkzM60
627Please respect copyright.PENANAYjYJht68v4
"Sorry, guys," he said. He quickly looked up from his phone when he noticed people's eyes on him. "Playing a game over here."627Please respect copyright.PENANAEtSveOIilG
627Please respect copyright.PENANAKqCwIC86Ds
I shook my head at him as I put my head back on the floor. I looked beside me and saw Jongup on Instagram looking at cute cat videos. I turned the other side to see Yong-nam with his arm over his face, covering his eyes. He did seem just as tired as all of us. He did help come up with some lyrics, so no argument there.627Please respect copyright.PENANArseCuKRkOU
627Please respect copyright.PENANAPTaERw1V2W
I heard Zoey sigh and that brought a smile across my face. "I give up," she said. "I haven't been on Twitter lately. Time to see what's going on in the world."627Please respect copyright.PENANAGOzsuXT3sB
627Please respect copyright.PENANASXuPUUO5hO
"I think I'll have a little shut-eye," said Christine.627Please respect copyright.PENANABJ5CXZHkJx
627Please respect copyright.PENANAooZA7ljTKL
Everyone seemed to be busy doing their own things now. I counted Jongup, Daniel, Young-jae and Zoey on their phones. Daehyun, Himchan and Zelo were engaged in a conversation. Even when Mike was resting on the couch, he seemed to be contributing whenever he can. Christine, Yong-nam and I were really the ones resting as we closed our eyes.627Please respect copyright.PENANAP5CmYGNGR5
627Please respect copyright.PENANALHdtlPuVyT
I heard someone stand up and guessed it was Yong-guk. I could hear footsteps head towards the other side of the room where the recording booth and console were. He seemed serious with what he wanted to do. I continued to lay there on the floor, hoping that I don't fall asleep.627Please respect copyright.PENANAKzx2qWUSri
627Please respect copyright.PENANAH8Hd2c1FB2
I found myself slowly imagining about the outdoor movie we were going to watch. Will it be an oldies movie? I would love to watch such. It just sets you in the mood when it has to.627Please respect copyright.PENANA8Mimdm8bS2
627Please respect copyright.PENANAEbc6rAEsFd
I heard Jongup chuckle to himself and I knew he's still on his cat videos. A thought crossed my mind. Here I am thinking of the outdoor movie when I should be thinking about the song. I don't feel like dwelling on it. Now is the time to relax, nothing more.627Please respect copyright.PENANAmJwIdntpdE
627Please respect copyright.PENANAhp10F2RPti
"Hey, Sam?" I heard Jongup call me. "Are you asleep?"627Please respect copyright.PENANASGB1DyoEsD
627Please respect copyright.PENANAQN7NEorDgv
"No," I answered. I drew my eyes open and looked at him. "What is it?"627Please respect copyright.PENANAJD1lp4kDHk
627Please respect copyright.PENANA5lb9ei8FwW
"Watch this," he said as he scooted closer that our heads nearly touched. He held his phone up for the two of us to see. We watched a cute cat video where a little white and brown kitten was chasing a movable toy mouse on the floor. It was cute and yet funny at the same time as the kitten tried so many times to capture it. Jongup and I laughed.627Please respect copyright.PENANAYrEHmxxQjY
627Please respect copyright.PENANAKFzkHAoWzX
"Oh, my," I said as I wiped away the tears in my eyes. "The little kitten really struggled. But you've to admit, it's so cute."627Please respect copyright.PENANAt4J0Aqq4Po
627Please respect copyright.PENANAaPK1ZeALDh
"I know," said Jongup. "You should see this previous one. It will knock your socks off."627Please respect copyright.PENANAH7nzUNGdhZ
627Please respect copyright.PENANAsBzGqlMK6f
I joined Jongup in watching more cat videos. We soon moved on to watch people participate in various dance challenges.627Please respect copyright.PENANApWwfeKWBgP
627Please respect copyright.PENANA21DPUdgWW6
"We should've a dance challenge one day," I said to Jongup as we watched.627Please respect copyright.PENANAuHg16afAUw
627Please respect copyright.PENANAFULKofWwkA
"Huh?" he turned to look at me. "We should've a dance challenge?"627Please respect copyright.PENANAgPWHrlxpit
627Please respect copyright.PENANAp4mOQQZssR
"Ya. I mean The Toxins vs BAP."627Please respect copyright.PENANAS5484w93mq
627Please respect copyright.PENANAJThUMz9KMd
"Oh..., like the one you had with Monsta X?"627Please respect copyright.PENANAKXLTIdLexx
627Please respect copyright.PENANA46quPOOZ0m
"Yes, like that one. You watched it?"627Please respect copyright.PENANA1qjjA1vb89
627Please respect copyright.PENANA2WAuVay5B7
"I think a lot of us did. People really liked it."627Please respect copyright.PENANA9Ehe7kSCwa
627Please respect copyright.PENANAXmdXEpcLwP
"Too bad we lost. But it was fun. We should've one one of these days. That's if we could even make the time for it."627Please respect copyright.PENANAprnxUf9XDy
627Please respect copyright.PENANAv4UmBR70PW
"Oh, you've an album to work on."627Please respect copyright.PENANA9uJitZnOKd
627Please respect copyright.PENANAN6unlbTikn
I stared at the ceiling and sighed. "Just thinking about it drains me." I went back to looking at his phone.627Please respect copyright.PENANAlXhfiXFSZX
627Please respect copyright.PENANAsVFULrIeqX
"Did I hear someone talk about having a dance challenge with BAP?" Zoey asked.627Please respect copyright.PENANArFE4d2D9Ni
627Please respect copyright.PENANA35oKp65U27
I raised my head a little and saw Zoey still on her phone.627Please respect copyright.PENANArerZoNunGE
627Please respect copyright.PENANAfB9bBXn1Kv
"Yes, I said that," I said as I dropped my head and stared at Jongup's phone.627Please respect copyright.PENANAFEYLquHN7i
627Please respect copyright.PENANA0I1Sgd5xFO
"Why not do so now?"627Please respect copyright.PENANAOuicmc6Fyr
627Please respect copyright.PENANASNjue105gP
"No!" Christine, Mike and I said out loud at the same time.627Please respect copyright.PENANATT02xRVY44
627Please respect copyright.PENANAonWqINIDpo
"Eish, guys. It's why I asked. You don't have to eat me alive."627Please respect copyright.PENANAmKEqLmtInV
627Please respect copyright.PENANAwmO4DmZyOI
Himchan and the other BAP members around the table started to chuckle.627Please respect copyright.PENANAHmYQyl5z03
627Please respect copyright.PENANAUSIJybNd0H
"You Toxins really are something," said Himchan. "You do know that the majority of you opposed, right?"627Please respect copyright.PENANAaOJjRgKlLO
627Please respect copyright.PENANAqXhSPWZVAt
"Except Daniel," said Zelo.627Please respect copyright.PENANAOngA9J7z0S
627Please respect copyright.PENANA81AL4ni5VM
"Oh, I refuse too," said Daniel, still on his phone.627Please respect copyright.PENANAy0Sczlvssy
627Please respect copyright.PENANA1P23wE7ICR
Zoey tsked. "You guys are no fun."627Please respect copyright.PENANAK4vAqES26I
627Please respect copyright.PENANAjQzrgHJfkf
"Use logic, Zoey," said Christine. "We're all tired and don't have the energy for a dance challenge."627Please respect copyright.PENANA1cKwY2VP0x
627Please respect copyright.PENANAmZOU7OhCBD
"I know that. I thought maybe someone's in the mood for it."627Please respect copyright.PENANAF5XRtMDeYt
627Please respect copyright.PENANAHj0qtNQESt
"No one is in the mood for it," said Mike.627Please respect copyright.PENANAZmU1E5bJPY
627Please respect copyright.PENANAnnQxpUMTub
"And what if the BAP members were?"627Please respect copyright.PENANAmCkDuBMezb
627Please respect copyright.PENANAk5jn3lEUBE
I heard Daehyun nervously chuckle. "To be honest, Zoey," he said, "I'm definitely not in the mood."627Please respect copyright.PENANAyDJCS4ZxBy
627Please respect copyright.PENANAjyyzJp6GqA
"Me too," said Young-jae.627Please respect copyright.PENANAI9vV40whFQ
627Please respect copyright.PENANALdud2oDXEx
"Me three," said Zelo.627Please respect copyright.PENANAi1H7hxwDeV
627Please respect copyright.PENANATmNoWVSAlK
"Guess I don't have to ask you, Himchan," said Zoey, sounding unimpressed.627Please respect copyright.PENANAxqD1YSCfNC
627Please respect copyright.PENANAT394lm2Jrq
Himchan, just like Daehyun, nervously chuckled too.627Please respect copyright.PENANAgroAoZZpmQ
627Please respect copyright.PENANA9Z27lTghOb
"You can ask Yong-guk," Zelo suggested.627Please respect copyright.PENANAh9QBe4HnF0
627Please respect copyright.PENANAJQS7ZWW7fe
"Nah. He's already busy and I don't like to be a bother."627Please respect copyright.PENANA0zaVtO74oL
627Please respect copyright.PENANAogTDd70FwE
"Really?" Mike asked. Uh-oh. I smell an argument brewing. "You bother a lot of us everyday."627Please respect copyright.PENANAajTTjBjzT3
627Please respect copyright.PENANAfcDTodrVgS
"What did you say!?"627Please respect copyright.PENANAACnJETNYag
627Please respect copyright.PENANAO6Df5NbdhF
"Quiet down, Zoey," said Christine. "You're disturbing Yong-nam. He's probably asleep."627Please respect copyright.PENANAjU3y6V2YTr
627Please respect copyright.PENANA9K2HVU7R9l
I turned to look at Yong-nam beside me and saw him move his arm above his eyes. He had one eye open. He turned his eye to look at me. I almost yelped. I felt embarrassed that he had caught me looking at him. The corner of his lips raised to a smile. He closed his eye and moved his arm back to cover his eyes. That was it.627Please respect copyright.PENANAnMchGP6SoV
627Please respect copyright.PENANAMm1W1kNJp5
"I bet he isn't," said Zoey. "Is he, Sam?"627Please respect copyright.PENANAiVQ5Z7QgtV
627Please respect copyright.PENANA1yR4NWYWSt
"Huh?" I got a little caught off guard as I didn't answer Zoey's question.627Please respect copyright.PENANAAh7O4Dl6j4
627Please respect copyright.PENANAQa33rPmtSv
"Is he awake?"627Please respect copyright.PENANAbL5CjVkKPF
627Please respect copyright.PENANAUUI8kKCrPU
"Not sure," I answered. "He would've said something if he was."627Please respect copyright.PENANAQTuxwwvXkO
627Please respect copyright.PENANAdKur94xl1i
I looked at him and noticed a wide smile on his face. Okay...., didn't know what to make of it, so I quickly turned my attention back to Jongup's phone.627Please respect copyright.PENANAXIuK9JOssU
627Please respect copyright.PENANAqso6S2csUH
"Anyway, where was I?" Zoey asked as she paused to think a bit. I noticed that no one's willing to remind her. It's best not to.627Please respect copyright.PENANABeaYgdiBcf
627Please respect copyright.PENANA1XuODjig18
"Ah-ha!" she exclaimed. "It's what you said, Mike. How am I a bother to you?"627Please respect copyright.PENANAbqKeXB0ZAd
627Please respect copyright.PENANAmaj6iF0ubr
"You're being a bother right now. I'm trying to rest and you're disturbing me."627Please respect copyright.PENANAbOSPxVriAQ
627Please respect copyright.PENANAWFlKc2sXCY
Zoey hissed that I thought a snake had magically appeared in the room. If she was one, no doubt she would attack Mike first.627Please respect copyright.PENANA3Lc7fBlCwb
627Please respect copyright.PENANAgfLr5mBhG9
"Enough," said Christine. "No one wants to see or hear you two fight."627Please respect copyright.PENANAWJ6fdv3H9F
627Please respect copyright.PENANAlYONFXh8Yz
"Mike started it," said Zoey.627Please respect copyright.PENANAlf5q71MadC
627Please respect copyright.PENANA4PN4kB33K7
"You amplified it," said Mike. "You always do."627Please respect copyright.PENANA12KW4MKgw1
627Please respect copyright.PENANACjHUUT20r8
"For once I agree with Mike," I said. "Let it go, Zoey."627Please respect copyright.PENANAyE3ZcKmkrU
627Please respect copyright.PENANA70YFCP5pky
"You guys are unbelievable," said Zoey.627Please respect copyright.PENANAc2629HlNF7
627Please respect copyright.PENANAzCxsSSaNP4
"You're unbelievable," said Himchan as he chuckled. "You really are a drama queen. No offense."627Please respect copyright.PENANANKjoOvZjsK
627Please respect copyright.PENANAlQSjcogMuo
"None taken. These guys call me that all the time."627Please respect copyright.PENANA32DDclTWo3
627Please respect copyright.PENANAEsBNn8PveY
After a while, all of us settled back to what we were doing. I was still watching videos with Jongup when I suddenly sat up from the floor. If I continued lying there, I would probably have a backache.627Please respect copyright.PENANA4InzagCPqv
627Please respect copyright.PENANALyXg3lZ9Xm
I stretched out my arms and stood up, stretching my whole body.627Please respect copyright.PENANAsBwtecGFME
627Please respect copyright.PENANAi4x8r6XiuV
"I've had enough of watching Instagram videos," I told Jongup.627Please respect copyright.PENANAiAp4k2zZoT
627Please respect copyright.PENANAXyK3qMKLex
He gave me a smile and went back to looking at his phone. I turned to look at everyone and almost all of them were either quietly resting or on their phones.627Please respect copyright.PENANAdp7rKlWKku
627Please respect copyright.PENANAmgt3fHCkka
I looked over at Yong-guk who was still seated at the console. I decided to go over and see how he's progressing with the song.627Please respect copyright.PENANAWsEDv7haY4
627Please respect copyright.PENANAegebfeoCVt
"Hey, there," I said to him when I got behind him. I bent over to look at him from the side of his face.627Please respect copyright.PENANADwqhdu5x9X
627Please respect copyright.PENANAZG9hixf2wo
"Oh, Sam," he looked up at me, surprised. "I didn't hear you coming."627Please respect copyright.PENANAOXrTPohoX3
627Please respect copyright.PENANASwxnS0zJSX
"I've cat feet," I said as I took the empty seat next to him.627Please respect copyright.PENANAT18KfIH3gI
627Please respect copyright.PENANAgflu2sqJFs
"Cat feet?"627Please respect copyright.PENANA0gCiHO0mx9
627Please respect copyright.PENANAwmXI9BI0XE
"I'm told there are times when people don't hear me coming so they say I've cat feet. I sometimes scare them."627Please respect copyright.PENANA6azRHMWEFD
627Please respect copyright.PENANAZIpBBmcgHe
"Oh, I see."627Please respect copyright.PENANAeoxBMkhPHZ
627Please respect copyright.PENANA1PrptPuwfF
"It's true, Yong-guk," Zoey said behind us. "So don't upset her or else she might come to your room and murder you."627Please respect copyright.PENANANOZebkPRLe
627Please respect copyright.PENANAMf4TOxGsAZ
"I'll keep that in mind," said Yong-guk as he turned to smile at her.627Please respect copyright.PENANAcjwuQot8OK
627Please respect copyright.PENANAqi10Ycf5Lg
"Don't listen to her," I said as I turned to look at the console in front of me. "So, what are you really working on? I thought we were done and dusted with your song."627Please respect copyright.PENANA497D4SgMbG
627Please respect copyright.PENANAjtTR3Wv89s
"I'm not working on our song," said Yong-guk as he went to work on the laptop.627Please respect copyright.PENANAhU7VCHAk57
627Please respect copyright.PENANAaITKAHX2LI
"Then, what are you working on?" I raised my eyebrow at him.627Please respect copyright.PENANAtSxda1GkYb
627Please respect copyright.PENANApLOFbLZXmy
"On your song," he answered.627Please respect copyright.PENANAzmHUxuwsmI
627Please respect copyright.PENANAmdo2u19XJ9
"Huh?"627Please respect copyright.PENANAFYcufaBYeX
627Please respect copyright.PENANA2iKbUpAJMd
"The tune you played earlier gave me a little inspiration to somehow come up with an instrumental. It's still not finished since I just started."627Please respect copyright.PENANAfadQ9t4nGR
627Please respect copyright.PENANAeAaZGnawPn
"Wow." I'm surprised. I didn't think Yong-guk would go this far. I didn't even know what to say.627Please respect copyright.PENANALz3QMSVdMI
627Please respect copyright.PENANAbBEth6HNUH
"Hey, are you okay, Sam?" Yong-guk asked.627Please respect copyright.PENANAqiQwOu1c64
627Please respect copyright.PENANAjs80Nts3Py
I quickly turned to look at him. "Huh?"627Please respect copyright.PENANAEfD83GBHcA
627Please respect copyright.PENANA4wK7MoRHXj
"You spaced out for a bit. Is it a bad idea that I'm working on the instrumental? I know there will probably be someone working on it, but I thought I could do something, you know?"627Please respect copyright.PENANA8gPRIwZNFH
627Please respect copyright.PENANAXyh4St9rgN
I smiled at him. He really means it. There aren't many people in the world who are so thoughtful.627Please respect copyright.PENANAfcmuHBCEVU
627Please respect copyright.PENANAkHzMvGvAn6
"I know what you mean. And no. I think there's no better person to work on it than you, Yong-guk."627Please respect copyright.PENANAPeYSIIDK0q
627Please respect copyright.PENANAlzqkxyDlL0
"Really?" He looked a little surprised with what I said.627Please respect copyright.PENANA20G2KF2kib
627Please respect copyright.PENANAqznt562kFW
"Of course! Who would've thought we would've you helping us? It's actually really nice of you."627Please respect copyright.PENANACOjcziUlZB
627Please respect copyright.PENANAEc1yA7h1ZN
I noticed his cheeks start to redden a little and he quickly turned away. I continued to smile. I had this overwhelming feeling like I could hug him, but now isn't the time.627Please respect copyright.PENANAxtP4pp1MIN
627Please respect copyright.PENANAntGFsZMahJ
"May I hear what you've done so far?" I asked.627Please respect copyright.PENANAMAI4pjciwj
627Please respect copyright.PENANAM7MD7rxwxc
"Ah..., sure," he said as he brought over the laptop closer.627Please respect copyright.PENANAiHzx17zdNP
627Please respect copyright.PENANAaQQTdv9uHQ
He showed me what he had done and even when the instrumental was short, it sounded great. He really did follow the tune and melody like I had done with the guitar. He also added a few beats into the mix making the song sound more like pop.627Please respect copyright.PENANAP1dFqEOVjh
627Please respect copyright.PENANAqNnOnqum41
"Amazing," I looked at him with so much awe. "It's no wonder you're such a great producer."627Please respect copyright.PENANAX0AqSCwR1R
627Please respect copyright.PENANALDL5wb4fLO
He chuckled. "Coming from you, that means a lot."627Please respect copyright.PENANAU35qZF1PPc
627Please respect copyright.PENANAAL63vYgBmX
"The others should hear this." My ear twitched. "I know you're there, Mike."627Please respect copyright.PENANAHbSTU6RXOp
627Please respect copyright.PENANAhAWkAZaul4
"Dang it!" I heard him mutter. Yong-guk and I turned around to see him behind us. "How come my cat feet can't work on you?"627Please respect copyright.PENANAg61Hjb9tR4
627Please respect copyright.PENANALHYmqAoooj
"Because what you've ain't cat feet," I smirked at him. "You've to work a lot harder than that."627Please respect copyright.PENANAFVgmouvOAu
627Please respect copyright.PENANAYcnYVoy8c8
"Anyway....," he came closer and placed his hands on my shoulder and Yong-guk's, "what is it that some of us have to listen to?"627Please respect copyright.PENANAjHsKNXye2s
627Please respect copyright.PENANAsZx5ZzCI8A
"This," I said as I pressed the play button on the laptop, playing out the instrumental for him.627Please respect copyright.PENANAfc5P9LlvGb
627Please respect copyright.PENANAdQEbSmI52k
"Wow," muttered Mike. "But wait..., why does this beat sound familiar?"627Please respect copyright.PENANACfd3xzcxzn
627Please respect copyright.PENANAmbr3VMwk60
"It's because it's the beat to our song, silly," I said to him.627Please respect copyright.PENANAJHckgLbeFS
627Please respect copyright.PENANAXT3d6Uzh5N
"Wow! Really!" I saw Mike look at Yong-guk just like I did earlier, with so much awe. "This is what you were working on?"627Please respect copyright.PENANAKsyX2hRcuR
627Please respect copyright.PENANAhfxiIaBfCO
Yong-guk nodded his head. Mike almost screamed like a girl, but he tried not to be so loud. I couldn't help but chuckle. He looked like his five year old self when he got a remote control car for his birthday.627Please respect copyright.PENANAZ5A9cOPDZW
627Please respect copyright.PENANAIpYfeHBYWx
"You're amazing," he said as he patted Yong-guk on the shoulder. "This song will be awesome."627Please respect copyright.PENANA7BoPS8lFW8
627Please respect copyright.PENANAwQ3etB6ek2
"Thanks," he said. "You should be thanking your sister, though."627Please respect copyright.PENANAD2RKajRuvc
627Please respect copyright.PENANAYp0YkcdsEi
"Huh?" Mike and I looked pluzzled.627Please respect copyright.PENANACSixTVnDuf
627Please respect copyright.PENANAWmJTEnDmSW
"Remember what I said," he said as he looked at me. "The way you played with the guitar inspired me to come up with this."627Please respect copyright.PENANATtNGk3nn46
627Please respect copyright.PENANAUcLNe5mjac
"Oh...," I forgot he said that. Now it's my turn to blush, and Yong-guk smiled.627Please respect copyright.PENANA5SCbRiCjgk
627Please respect copyright.PENANAgqbpDheiiF
"Ya, my sister is a genius," said Mike. "May I join you?"627Please respect copyright.PENANAS1YvzCzb0x
627Please respect copyright.PENANAobBzxgp7ui
"Sure," said Yong-guk. "With you two here, I bet we can work on it together."627Please respect copyright.PENANAyvrfS0ehV0
627Please respect copyright.PENANAqWWzaJKcIK
"And probably come up with lyrics for the song," I said when it dawned on me. "That's why you wanted me to come and join you here by the console."627Please respect copyright.PENANARkzwoUMcwv
627Please respect copyright.PENANAayiSdHtUsc
"I see you've got what I intended to do." Yong-guk turned to look at me with a smile. Mike sat on his other side. "I thought working on the instrumental will give you some idea on lyrics for the song."627Please respect copyright.PENANANJ986a2qja
627Please respect copyright.PENANA9y8D58h1fd
"We'll see," said Mike as he rubbed his hands together and looking at the console before him like a hot, tasty meal he couldn't wait to put in his mouth.627Please respect copyright.PENANANpzma5EvjS
627Please respect copyright.PENANAd5djxABMAy
"Alright, let's start," said Yong-guk.627Please respect copyright.PENANAb5K2GRT0F5
627Please respect copyright.PENANALS8chYsLyk
The three of us worked on the beats maker software on the laptop. With Mike's creativity and Yong-guk's producer skills, working on the instrumental was smooth and simple. We had no idea how long we had been working on it, but we had fun and joked around whenever we could.627Please respect copyright.PENANAZsEueqAxAY
627Please respect copyright.PENANAeAZiqi76Ip
"Hey, what's going on here?" Himchan asked as he came to join us.627Please respect copyright.PENANAbBrhnpxHWg
627Please respect copyright.PENANAjOzZO4vRT5
"We're working on an instrumental," Mike answered.627Please respect copyright.PENANAQAelEQp5K8
627Please respect copyright.PENANAQXPqMX9S05
"Which one?"627Please respect copyright.PENANA3rSGlGGSCp
627Please respect copyright.PENANALLG5J0wBt8
"For our song," I answered. "You should hear it, it's really good."627Please respect copyright.PENANASYv0xGiiV8
627Please respect copyright.PENANACl9A3JpaO4
"Oh, I thought you had run out of ideas for the lyrics."627Please respect copyright.PENANAeKvwrca2mD
627Please respect copyright.PENANAe6ctbUwKN0
"Well, I did. Maybe if I continue working on the instrumental, I might come up with them."627Please respect copyright.PENANA2jh8A2qKWD
627Please respect copyright.PENANA0yRmEkUG8S
"How far have you gone doing so?"627Please respect copyright.PENANAzPs2ycxYkJ
627Please respect copyright.PENANAWUEbKPmWYA
"Not too far," Yong-guk answered. "We've only tried to work on the first part and heading to the chorus. But even that needs a lot of work."627Please respect copyright.PENANAojczy8biCV
627Please respect copyright.PENANAPfGWbU0aXH
"I agree," said Mike.627Please respect copyright.PENANAN1hTdDVoLc
627Please respect copyright.PENANA7SCE3VkFeq
"And you're going to use this instrumental for your album?" Himchan asked.627Please respect copyright.PENANA68Y161egd6
627Please respect copyright.PENANACBpqilXGBU
"Of course we're," I answered, looking back at him. I now understood why he asked and I winced.627Please respect copyright.PENANAua0Ix4jhDK
627Please respect copyright.PENANAUNJiU9mV2J
"What is it, Sam?" Mike asked.627Please respect copyright.PENANAhsoo60VlYC
627Please respect copyright.PENANAGRWy4Pw74H
"We need to seek permission to use this instrumental." I scratched the back of my head. "Goodness, why didn't I think about this before?"627Please respect copyright.PENANAsxxbiSRpw6
627Please respect copyright.PENANAEzz7yTNUbX
"Oh, ya," Mike turned to look at me quickly. "Why can't you give Collins a call and tell him that we've someone helping us?"627Please respect copyright.PENANAhWNjhxX4Mc
627Please respect copyright.PENANAgnakDlnqrQ
"Collins may agree. But what about Yang Hyun-suk?"627Please respect copyright.PENANAu08axeXNdu
627Please respect copyright.PENANA6hV9hSzX1R
Mike and I stared at each other. We both winced like we had done something wrong and we would be in big trouble for it.627Please respect copyright.PENANA2g8gydJLoV
627Please respect copyright.PENANAr1CqlDp13F
"Gosh, the man is troubling," said Mike as he leaned back in his seat. "He can hunt you in your dreams if you think about him too much."627Please respect copyright.PENANABrJG51Ao8Z
627Please respect copyright.PENANAcpPcIRukmu
"He's really strict," I said. "And he's also hard to impress. If we do play out the instrumental for him, would he really like it?"627Please respect copyright.PENANAe3DUAn9MU5
627Please respect copyright.PENANA9cnTqMNaP6
"This is your tune and melody, Sam. So, he can't refuse. I mean, the song we did with BigBang was all you too."627Please respect copyright.PENANAcElnO7fCHq
627Please respect copyright.PENANAtzTNGWMqz6
"It was?" Yong-guk and Himchan asked at the same time.627Please respect copyright.PENANAl4r2tDewS0
627Please respect copyright.PENANA3crfhSRigH
"Never mind that," I told them as I went back to looking at Mike. "I'm worried because Yong-guk is helping us produce this one. Will Yang Hyun-suk agree?"627Please respect copyright.PENANAtsOzViDZw2
627Please respect copyright.PENANAwNrS1dlRGG
"As long as he knows you thought of it in the first place, he'll definitely agree." Mike leaned forward so as to look at me.627Please respect copyright.PENANA6Ewjdxekzx
627Please respect copyright.PENANAlXXwx89F0L
"Does this thing involving me always have to be highlighted?"627Please respect copyright.PENANAsILFvf0p9s
627Please respect copyright.PENANAlYhasVRneJ
"Daa, yes! Out of all of us, Yang Hyun-suk approves of you the most. He'll definitely go through with it."627Please respect copyright.PENANAaki15pzRnp
627Please respect copyright.PENANA6Pmui2MJif
I gave Mike a look. I don't consider myself as Yang Hyun-suk's favourite among The Toxins. I'm just afraid he won't approve.627Please respect copyright.PENANAqummAgglkD
627Please respect copyright.PENANAvDnhsN0bHB
"Okay, if that's the case, than what of Yong-guk? Will he really help us through till the end?"627Please respect copyright.PENANAwgRaOvaSiw
627Please respect copyright.PENANA5ecyjYMUXa
"I don't think we've to worry about that. Besides, even if he didn't offer to help, he seemed to do it out of his own free will, you know."627Please respect copyright.PENANAyh0KBXkrJr
627Please respect copyright.PENANAGxQlXgNI2u
"I'm right here, you guys," said Yong-guk in between Mike and me. "I can clearly hear you."627Please respect copyright.PENANAQCiofalH08
627Please respect copyright.PENANAfvMu0XilMx
Mike and I turned to look at him, then ignored him like he wasn't there. Himchan chuckled.627Please respect copyright.PENANABTmbkSlBsC
627Please respect copyright.PENANAT7kbVeLgdn
"You're right," I said. "He'll stay till the end. He's such a good friend for helping us out."627Please respect copyright.PENANA5agOY5i1Nt
627Please respect copyright.PENANAD7XGdevljd
"I know right," Mike smiled. "He's awesome."627Please respect copyright.PENANAnFEZqXZJv4
627Please respect copyright.PENANA7lKj2SkdmX
"I think you better focus on giving Collins a call, Sam," said Yong-guk, trying to sound serious, yet falling to do so.627Please respect copyright.PENANAyqMwQmJEGP
627Please respect copyright.PENANAziFGoRis1W
"Aww," Himchan complained. "Their conversation was just about to get more interesting."627Please respect copyright.PENANA7tYuX1xbmg
627Please respect copyright.PENANAGcLvIB4uxV
I laughed. "He's just trying to hide the fact that he's blushing."627Please respect copyright.PENANA86MymfTuHr
627Please respect copyright.PENANApJJpqO1Fn3
"No, I'm not," said Yong-guk as he folded his arms and looked straight ahead, avoiding eye contact.627Please respect copyright.PENANAgrFh6Mpnrf
627Please respect copyright.PENANAm6e6R26nLC
Mike burst out laughing that he leaned back further in his seat. "Stop trying to put up a serious face, Yong-guk," he said. "You look awfully funny."627Please respect copyright.PENANAYgOxpf7IgE
627Please respect copyright.PENANA5MbSwgtF1g
I couldn't help but agree with Mike as I also started laughing. I had to keep in mind that I had a phone call to make. I soon stood up from my seat.627Please respect copyright.PENANAiFiMMt8IlH
627Please respect copyright.PENANAqNfAYArLu2
"I'll be back," I said as I tried to stop laughing. "You better not have that face when I get back, Yong-guk."627Please respect copyright.PENANApz0Me4Yrir
627Please respect copyright.PENANAOyuvoHZymB
I walked away from the others as I made my way to the door. I needed to be somewhere more private if I am to talk with Collins.627Please respect copyright.PENANAkBHRdb9hfl
627Please respect copyright.PENANA2xflBz5X9H
I stepped out into the hall and looked both ways. There's nobody walking around. I pulled out my phone from my pocket and searched for Collins' number. I pressed the call button and placed the phone to my ear.627Please respect copyright.PENANAOIwieh65pz
627Please respect copyright.PENANAA9HeVzSpJL
His phone rang, and it kept on ringing. I grew worried that he might not answer. Maybe he's busy. He did say he would be occupied today. I better call him at a later time.627Please respect copyright.PENANApKQSmMZnKL
627Please respect copyright.PENANApFXvbHDEnL
Just when I'm about to cut the call, he picked up at the last minute.627Please respect copyright.PENANASNdqNq0k3s
627Please respect copyright.PENANA7JTGGDLe5K
"Hi, Sam," came his voice. "How's song writing going?"627Please respect copyright.PENANADV2KNGdsyI
627Please respect copyright.PENANAaVNsSvhnwc
"Not good, I'm afraid," I said as I scratched the back of my head wondering how to bring up the instrumental thing.627Please respect copyright.PENANAuUJq0hGuCo
627Please respect copyright.PENANAoCJrADAPiB
"You'll figure it out. You do have extra help, don't you?"627Please respect copyright.PENANAF6vKdblv0V
627Please respect copyright.PENANAYpaZ93imGY
"I see Lee told you about BAP."627Please respect copyright.PENANAwOxGChKZJP
627Please respect copyright.PENANAsA3Sp8MSrA
"Well, she had to. So what can I do for you?"627Please respect copyright.PENANAAeHnnPwOqb
627Please respect copyright.PENANAFFGcRyND1d
"Well, we were working on the song and we felt a little stuck. So we had help with coming up with the instrumental for the song."627Please respect copyright.PENANAx1NxmGZ8QO
627Please respect copyright.PENANAA0xORR0Nb2
"You're already coming up with that?"627Please respect copyright.PENANAHdFKIfig19
627Please respect copyright.PENANApt8NpD4vHf
I scratched the back of my head even more as I started to pace up and down in front of the door. "Well, ya. You see, Yong-guk - the leader of BAP - kind of got inspired to make us the instrumental because of the way I played it with the guitar. So we were wondering if it's okay with you that we use it for the song."627Please respect copyright.PENANA7XS5LbhGH7
627Please respect copyright.PENANAEdG30qNWYq
There was silence on the other end. I wonder what Collins must be thinking. He's a little unpredictable sometimes and he might not agree with it.627Please respect copyright.PENANAA8APn7lwsA
627Please respect copyright.PENANAQPvhrK8ijl
"Well," he started to say, "we would've to listen to it to see if it's actually good. The big problem is whether he should be working on it in the first place."627Please respect copyright.PENANAJWhCV4hdBa
627Please respect copyright.PENANAhPhfRlvsuA
I knew it. I had to say something quick to convince him.627Please respect copyright.PENANA946DYsVdyd
627Please respect copyright.PENANAfIqBs6XJty
"I know, but he's really good. And besides, Mike and I are helping out too. You can be rest assured that it will be great."627Please respect copyright.PENANAMWp4laEg1n
627Please respect copyright.PENANAMZxEaruZ7D
"I believe you. But you know I'm not the only manager in this project of ours."627Please respect copyright.PENANAvJLD4dExOG
627Please respect copyright.PENANARZxWHufsqD
"If you could talk to Yang Hyun-suk for me, I bet he would agree. Yong-guk is a great producer and he's reputation proves that otherwise."627Please respect copyright.PENANAnQtuVmVXKA
627Please respect copyright.PENANAz5bSh8Z4J8
"I don't have to talk to Yang Hyun-suk. He's right here with me. I put you on loud speaker."627Please respect copyright.PENANArIMBPfRDGZ
627Please respect copyright.PENANAIdmo3d39xE
I swallowed as I stopped pacing and my heart did one huge beat that I felt my chest hurt.627Please respect copyright.PENANAX0BlRW4rjC
627Please respect copyright.PENANA9lLE4S3j6n
"Oh..., good afternoon, Yang Hyun-suk sarangnim," I said quickly, so as not to seem surprised.627Please respect copyright.PENANANfDZVViC79
627Please respect copyright.PENANAvDIe6iTqNE
"Afternoon," came Yang Hyun-suk's voice. I could feel beads of sweet starting to form on my forehead. "I heard everything you had to say."627Please respect copyright.PENANACFvZ4rrxi4
627Please respect copyright.PENANAkq5CXAIq3A
"And what do you think?"627Please respect copyright.PENANAIMO4Ucj8il
627Please respect copyright.PENANA27mxd1zKG4
"Well..., as much as the idea sounds tempting, I would actually refuse."627Please respect copyright.PENANAn1EDH0egQt
627Please respect copyright.PENANA1ncHcHdb4v
My heart sank. I told myself it was worth a try anyway.627Please respect copyright.PENANArXFOhVmyo6
627Please respect copyright.PENANA4N8cbIqxWJ
"But," he continued, "we're talking about Bang Yong-guk, and he's reputation, like you've said, precedes him. If he does want to help out and you think he's the right producer for the job, then I've no objection to it. You can proceed with making the instrumental."627Please respect copyright.PENANAxnmBi2rtVl
627Please respect copyright.PENANA89VLz2o6UZ
"Really!" I cried out in excitement. I can't believe he actually agreed.627Please respect copyright.PENANA06ZYUJrkEQ
627Please respect copyright.PENANAQJ5XP2EMuz
"Let's not forget that we're the ones that have the final say. If it's good, then we will proceed."627Please respect copyright.PENANAg21f8IDtbX
627Please respect copyright.PENANA1dhS6GuHiB
"Thank you!" I said with so much excitement. I could hear the two managers chuckle to themselves. "I promise you won't be disappointed."627Please respect copyright.PENANAQVJEbMUAt8
627Please respect copyright.PENANAsmUT3WTqL7
"Make us proud, Sam," said Collins. "I hope you'll be able to come up with lyrics."627Please respect copyright.PENANAU0RpBHJz49
627Please respect copyright.PENANAZZrSePDcvN
"I will. Thank you once again."627Please respect copyright.PENANAqhAX7jWB0R
627Please respect copyright.PENANA0trRVP30qg
The two managers wished me luck. As soon as the line cut, I punched the air with excitement. We're really doing this. I can't wait to tell the others.627Please respect copyright.PENANA8BmQVcyI2u
627Please respect copyright.PENANAQv1wGkZS4m
I turned around and opened the door to the studio. As soon as I went in, I quickly rushed over to the others on the console.627Please respect copyright.PENANAnHyH8ynjH5
627Please respect copyright.PENANAzWt6U95a7W
"What's the news?" Mike asked as he looked at me.627Please respect copyright.PENANAmMHpSnZJ4j
627Please respect copyright.PENANAFFEQg8O9NK
"I hope it's good," said Himchan.627Please respect copyright.PENANARdvjMIS3cJ
627Please respect copyright.PENANAlvDY0z95Zg
"What news?" asked Daniel who was still seated on the couch. His eyes left the phone as he looked at us who were by the console.627Please respect copyright.PENANA4MVoIHMqWb
627Please respect copyright.PENANA3UWGDiRctG
"They agreed," I answered.627Please respect copyright.PENANACv3KI0MJbY
627Please respect copyright.PENANAfCR26JOmp5
Himchan and Mike clapped, looking relieved. Yong-guk leaned back in his seat, looking cool and composed, but I could tell that he was just as happy as the three of us.627Please respect copyright.PENANAW6X5Dt8zSx
627Please respect copyright.PENANARLi59bK9BV
"Who agreed to what?" Daniel asked as he stood up from his couch to come over and join us. "I want to know what's going on."627Please respect copyright.PENANASxGYGGX3Ta
627Please respect copyright.PENANAMZMraXD2Ls
"Ya, I'm also anxious to know what you're all talking about," said Daehyun.627Please respect copyright.PENANAY8B8AaUmp6
627Please respect copyright.PENANAgm5Lc9eKIn
"Me too," said Zoey. "What did I miss?"627Please respect copyright.PENANAoLyKz00FrW
627Please respect copyright.PENANAvEAChgH567
"A lot," I answered.627Please respect copyright.PENANA8ChuTC2zyd
627Please respect copyright.PENANADmvs8reZFQ
I told them what was going on and how I somehow managed to talk to the managers to go through with Yong-guk's instrumental.627Please respect copyright.PENANAwBRxFgTH83
627Please respect copyright.PENANAmu3VpSd7c0
"Wow, that's awesome," said Zelo.627Please respect copyright.PENANADEAkrSs6QE
627Please respect copyright.PENANA4E6I5A3JBi
"You see how the managers just love you, Sam?" Mike asked.627Please respect copyright.PENANAfGqJEs9pd5
627Please respect copyright.PENANA6tZInJcHW3
"No, they don't," I emphasised. "If they don't like the instrumental, we aren't going to use it. So it has to be perfect."627Please respect copyright.PENANAvkr4e2wlr0
627Please respect copyright.PENANAQ0tx0WfdAw
"But for them to agree its because they know Yong-guk is an awesome producer," said Himchan. "No doubt it will be lit."627Please respect copyright.PENANA4UvPNUUnIF
627Please respect copyright.PENANA0JpSsK45FF
"I agree with Himchan," said Zoey. "And besides, it's more of Sam's original, so they can't say no."627Please respect copyright.PENANAgjfaSCkgo1
627Please respect copyright.PENANAcUULWZZJcB
"Okay, we just need to focus on the instrumental and hopefully come up with the lyrics," I said.627Please respect copyright.PENANA6JEFs9pisM
627Please respect copyright.PENANAwuETP8xF5e
"Well, you better work on those fast," said Yong-nam, who was now wide awake, but still laying on the floor. "You don't have much time."627Please respect copyright.PENANAI4oHFjUlza
627Please respect copyright.PENANAK9QqufUc1U
"Okay," I said as I rubbed my hands together. "Toxins, get over here by the console, please."627Please respect copyright.PENANAiznXCbVHSp
627Please respect copyright.PENANAo1Nz1JC0ig
"Okay," said Christine and Zoey as they both stood up from the couch and quickly came over.627Please respect copyright.PENANAnBB9rYu4y5
627Please respect copyright.PENANAKcF8BuyfSj
"We will be here to help in anyway we can," said Young-jae.627Please respect copyright.PENANAlzQWfO2v9b
627Please respect copyright.PENANAQlflyPe7NC
"Thanks, guys," I said with a smile. I went over to sit back on my chair next to Yong-guk.627Please respect copyright.PENANAtLTl0rfCvP
627Please respect copyright.PENANAQRS9aq2S8D
"Okay," said Yong-guk. "Let's continue where we ended, shall we?"
