My watch said 10:31 and I hissed in frustration. I was getting really impatient and I felt like I was about to blow a fuse.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz4d1WcjLIK
I had never been this 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLsAGTa1x5d
late in my entire life. Not even when I had my own personal 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxD86CkPzor
appointments. The others would be wondering why I was so late. And 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8GzGtvJW7J
trying to explain the reason why, would have them blown away.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHg14ynHXO6
"Sam, are you still there?" Zoey called out to me from our room.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIz4NwpdoMF
I didn't want to answer. I was quite irritated. But if I didn't, she would start to freak out.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjRrCvuyNC
"Sam!"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXyy4Ecpalc
I rolled my eyes. "I'm still here, Zoey," I answered.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7LeZKPGzz
Zoey came out of the 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGPbTjQGaD
room and came to the lounge where I was seated waiting for her. I was on928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhGqp0qFIn
the couch and I looked at her, then back at my watch.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vbxLwNxX4
"Did you find what you're looking for?" I asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4EM9kqrjvk
"No, I haven't," said Zoey.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJe0ALG4VV
"You've been searching for it all morning," I said as I stood up. "Can we please just go to the studio? We're already late."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIQ07GO8eMu
"No, let me go and check again," Zoey turned around to head back to the room and I groaned so loudly to grab her attention.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2Rm4EP9Y4
"Zoey, it's just a stud and you have plenty of those like it in your jewellery box."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4t7HYadq3
"But those are my favourite studs," said Zoey. "You know they are diamond, right?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZFNZFuifo
"I know because I bought you those studs for your birthday a year ago."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAENo3qGDZD
"Oh. Ya, I know." Zoey had a look on her face that told me she forgot about that.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVgkT4HTlu
I ignored her and said, 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2f3oLk7BER
"just get another pair of studs or don't put on any at all. For my sake.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfbNiSvjJkY
And Collins' too. We were supposed to be at the studio at 10."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGMgbHksyp
"What time is it?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DtzHoGe4f
"10:35."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXcrV1LNrB6
"Wow, time really passes by."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKpCtwEJrli
"When it comes to you, it does. Come on, let's go."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMC2Qn9IbOd
"Let me go get my phone."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwvpHWbhhEf
Zoey rushed back to the 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPF0yIWY6cj
room and I hoped she wasn't going to get back to looking for her missing928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBr3sHIq0jk
stud. She sometimes did the opposite of what she had to do. But anyway,928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP7HuR0s3zp
that was Zoey.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6WojlgPRJc
I soon received a 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfDhMPWxnH
message from Collins threatening me to get to the studio as soon as 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9bIRJrJnZ
possible. In no less than five minutes. I moaned. He knew we couldn't 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXd5IEB9tu
get there in five minutes. That's if we were superheros.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxmfkbZKW01
"Zoey, come on, we better go!"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKOLeKI2cm
"I'm coming."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpffd1Xk85h
I started heading 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOPYb0vCz6o
towards the elevator and my phone beeped again. Another message. 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyRWZvDfXb
Hopefully it wasn't Collins again telling us he would hang us to death 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGAc2EdRRr8
if we didn't make it in time. But I was surprised to see an unknown 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3cy6lEkSu
number. A number coming from another country.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPku3eX7LHw
"Oh, who is this?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKtGhEkS49
Before I could open the message icon, Zoey came rushing from behind and bumped into my back. That almost made me drop my phone.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnw7M983XoA
"My goodness, Zoey!" I said as I looked at her. "You should look where you're going. I almost dropped my phone."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTF5c1q68fq
"Sorry," said Zoey as she also looked at me.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7i1maiAWHY
"Come on, we're already late."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcczepmtOd
We went into the 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK8r1NUq7Z4
elevator and I put my phone away in my jeans jacket pocket. A black 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0gaz72o6np
Chevrolet SUV was waiting for us outside. The others had already left 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdLohmVgmVg
for the studio and I had stayed behind because of Zoey's missing stud.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ82KqZoKlV
When we got to YG, 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxLKUszBOPP
Collins stood there by the entrance, obviously waiting for us. He looked928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdTSU32C8sI
like an angry father ready to scold at his kids for coming home late.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5u8Z47zGt
"Don't tell me all this is your doing, Zoey," said Collins as we approached him.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShA62S63Cr
"No, no, it's not," said Zoey as she shook her head.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJDHPC0gG1
"Says the person who isn't wearing her studs today."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgw00MxO0lp
Zoey held her earlobes 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjeALuWe8hO
and looked at me with a surprised look on her face. I shrugged. I had to928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ089LjkMFIw
tell Collins why we delayed over the phone. At least he believed me, 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFpF4Ges3H
knowing that he already knew what was Zoey was like.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4v7RuOTevv
"Come on, the others are waiting and they didn't want to start without you," said Collins.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdTwTqoCrs
"They had to wait," said Zoey, flipping her hair. "I'm singing the first verse alongside G-Dragon."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlaUqe5ksYv
"Remind me whenever you're deciding who sings which part of a song to let me be there," said Collins as he turned to look at me.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuT9ZCbJa8N
"I'll try." I smiled. Zoey stuck out her tongue at Collins.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcGVdinNKn
We got to the studio and we found everyone else waiting for us, lazing around on the couch.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmp9R4o9jb
"Hey, you're finally here," said Seungri.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBPxYi7I4al
"Sorry, we had an issue back at the hotel," said Zoey.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqyyLq4Vl7W
"Ya. A 'serious' one." I said as I rolled my eyes.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5XQjwGbW5l
"I can't wait to get started," said Daniel excitedly as he stood up from the couch.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8oEYXipUEj
"Then let's do so," said928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsopaIQw1AQ
Collins as he joined the music producer by the console. "Zoey, Taeyang,928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43HeA2HHUK
Christine, Sam and G-Dragon, we will start with you guys."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMGoQ3VSeE6
I had completely forgot 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3uTlW0MhBb
that G-Dragon was even in the room. I hadn't noticed him at all when he 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ7bpOCNq9A
stood up from the couch and came towards Zoey and I.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcRBVSYxVyd
"Hi, Zoey," G-Dragon greeted Zoey.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyuWSGQLVkv
"Hi," said Zoey with a wide smile on her face.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1yd5HcniXx
"Ahem," Christine came from behind as she cleared her throat. "Let's go. You two can talk later."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwsUd40eNlN
I rolled my eyes and together with Taeyang and Christine, we went into the live room together, followed by the two love birds.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtG6YAOBIiH
In the live room, there 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS0a8s030Bo
stood five microphones and with each mic had a pair of headphones around928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUfZRSr0y3A
it. We each stood in front of a microphone and put on the headphones.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvINCogkWlQ
Ahead of us was a window where we could see the others from the other side.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQg91lrZl34
"Are you guys ready?" Collins asked as his voice was heard through the speaker in the live room.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPcNDxt5gYc
I looked at the others 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zUSLxUlxq
to see if they were settled and gave Collins a thumbs up and the music 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdXSoHOhBY
producer started to play the tune for the song.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzdanvrsneU
G-Dragon started to sing928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwivoQY09Po
and then afterwards, Zoey followed. Their voices blended so well with 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmIdyBLtmhA
the music, they made a perfect harmony. Looked like I did a good thing 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡepDBHx0ZFA
to let them sing the first verse together.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmwA1du6Q3
Collins, the music 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPDTupT6bG
producer and the others outside the live room had smiles on their faces.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0qg56LOcZk
They were loving it alright. Collins gave them a thumbs up.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ047X3gTz2b
Christine then sang the 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJd5u0t0nRi
bridge and as she came came closer to the chorus, I joined in. Then 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8DMqTGkgw8
Taeyang and I sang the chorus together.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡin0aBGBPDw
When we were done, the music producer stopped playing the track.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGmxSpHBTKz
"That was awesome, guys," said Collins as his voice came out through the speaker. "The song is so incredible."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg144IPQQ93
"Ya, thank Sam," said Taeyang. "She is the one who came out with all of this."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsnqoIZszh
I smiled at Taeyang who stood beside me and I nudged him on the shoulder. "Stop it, Tae," I said. "Don't make me blush."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZuyky9Y5B
"Okay, Sam and Taeyang, I928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡueb44RcDfm
want you two to go through the chorus again, this time with a little 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbutSzCTgD
more high tempo and see how it sounds," said the music producer.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5hZGzCow4f
"Okay," Taeyang and I said at the same time.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNoS8bvcIXk
"Shall GD and I leave then?" Zoey asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHDcQHychE
"You may," said Collins,928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCsPTfOfagU
looking a little irritated on his face. "But don't leave the studio. 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4YmKbVvET
You have to work on the backup vocals."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTwKttyGGA3
"Alright, we will be here," said Zoey, with a grin on her face.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXnZiRBZfG
If I hadn't known 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLy7p1IwDFo
better, something told me Zoey and G-Dragon were up to something. They 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoXpLxyQoOh
looked like little mischievous children as they smiled at each other and928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcs9tjP2kI3
they walked out of the live room. I couldn't help but feel a little 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9HywJn9wh
hollow inside.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1PE46MtLw
"So, we will start from Christine's part," said the music producer.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOonofHmWZy
We continued recording 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRPXxIrujh
the song and later on, TOP, Mike, Daesung, Seungri and Daniel also came 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMyI3QeFuV
into the live room. It took us a while to record the whole song, trying 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6sEe0xvLp
to make our vocals blend in with the song but we were done.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNAm1B9tQx
"Great job guys," said Collins. "Let's break up for lunch and then we can come back and work on the backup vocals."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpRH1kRukU
"Alright," said Mike as he took out his headphones. "I'm pretty hungry now."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6y8XKvoT4O
"The song is amazing," said Christine. "And it's catchy that you can sing it the whole day."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEC8CCHuhfU
"Ya," said TOP. "Why don't we all go somewhere special for lunch?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcJpJNjjzT
"Like where?" I asked as I put the headphones on the mic.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSiQid5QdQY
"Some restaurant I think we will like," said TOP as he looked at me with a killer smile.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5G4LDn0Ju
"That sounds great." I turned to the window to look at Collins who obviously heard everything. "Can we go, Collins?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4qDthrA5No
"Ya, you can go," said Collins waving his hand irritatingly in the air.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy3a7v7mA3s
"Yes!" Daniel punched the air with his fist.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡThtXuo0Chw
"But be back within an hour."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBKiHkbikH
I raised an eyebrow at Collins who then rolled his eyes at me and groaned.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSFQhTB2lEx
"Fine, an hour and a half."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Pyef3mWCX
I did a little victory dance in my heart and I smiled in triumph. Collins and the music producer soon left the studio room.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrgxZskLVnk
"How did you do that?" Daesung asked as we all walked out of the live room.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKto2S3ix3R
"Do what?" I asked with a smile on my face as Daesung was right behind me.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQewv6ukIO
"How did you convince Collins to give us an hour and thirty minutes?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmZWSFE6MX
"That, my friend," said 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQPPAqnzIdM
Mike behind me, "is the way my sister does her thing. Just by a look in 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcg4omuaC7w
her eyes and you will have to do whatever she wants."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGQuZY24vOE
"That's not true," I said as I turned around to look at Mike who had his hand on Daesung's shoulder.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6SWfUelmLs
"Really? I beg to differ," said TOP as he winked at me.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBdWxuZUdF
"No one does what I want them to do just by looking at them in the eye," I said, looking away from TOP, blushing.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGqOL9ItRB
"Well, it does work, most of the time," said Christine nodding her head.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ63ynETo73w
"Oh, ya? Like when?" I folded my arms.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGvTY3iy6jT
"Whenever you want us to928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8czgAP46ga
tell you the truth about something and we refuse, you always give us 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7Vh5Q8FFF
this eye that makes us give in," said Daniel.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0mmq5JQF7
"For real?" I raised an eyebrow.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdMRocXBeD
"Ya, your eyes burn and we just can't take it," said Christine.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWtjAOKrLvw
"Huh," I thought of all 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQb1A6ZBGw
the times when either of my brothers or the girls ever did whatever I 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXyEun0GJ4
wanted them to do just by me giving them the eye.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0U7kljfa1
"But that doesn't explain with Collins though," said Taeyang.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwh9yLnB4hP
"Thank you, Tae," I said feeling relieved.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSYc68LSdqr
"Come on, Sam," said 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0X3FNyvg6A
Daniel. "You might not know it, but Collins listens to you because you 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVMInk5ZMK0
also give him the eye. And also probably because you're his favourite."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcoLFoeubiy
"That makes no sense." I shook my head.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqAMftCFra
"I believe him," said Seungri. "Looks like you have a way of getting to Collins to make him agree with you."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQkyg8LqPNt
"But he doesn't agree to me all the time," I slowly shook my head.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgfvBw4ZMK
"On some ocassions like this one, he does," said Christine with a smile.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxi5jQhfBG
"Can we please just go for lunch?" I asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3R71mM987u
Seungri came over to open the door for me, but just as I was about to step out of the room, I stopped.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0CkMiVKtii
"Guys?" I turned around to look at the others. "Where are Zoey and GD?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnEh3Jo7Lwh
We all turned towards the couch and noticed that there was no one there. I went back in the room and looked around.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwyhr9F3z2
"They aren't here," I said.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOqB9awRkoI
"These guys don't stop surprising us with their disappearing acts," said Daesung.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhHo7FYRdqS
"I'm surprised Collins didn't notice," said Seungri.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzEJm2e4odQ
"Hopefully, they will be back before we start on the backup vocals," I said.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFw3o9A6LF8
"Then let's go then," said TOP. "Wherever those two are, they are fine."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJ7zRHMZJy
I nodded my head and we 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF80W2Z7CqN
all left the room. As we headed down to the ground floor, I reminded 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtuh8Frzmyf
myself to leave a text message for Zoey.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaE8bQeyvdP
We were in the lobby and928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOIJvHtARi
I stopped to remove my phone. I went over to messages and realised that928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxKAOkadIq
I had one unread message. It was the message I had received this 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZG8fKnbt6
morning.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLdZiUmEdW
I first sent Zoey a text928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8KqyIZwnyf
message then I decided to read the unknown message from this unknown 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZKSQivGRm
person. Then TOP appeared right in front of me.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu63Ianz69X
"Hey, what are you looking at?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7FY3pDSMGi
I was startled by his sudden appearance that my thumb pressed the exit button and I had gone out of my messages.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwPR82JTxT
"I was just sending Zoey a message," I said.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlFbSPzFxbZ
"Okay, shall we go?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ZhGqrfX88
"Ya, sure." I put the phone back in my pocket and I wrapped my arm around his elbow and we walked out of the building.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1CpdAzMoL
"Oh, you guys look like you're going out," said Christine with a smile.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgaJyU8oEvM
"We're all going out for lunch aren't we?" I asked with a smirk.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡej7uBKZQtx
"Ya, we are," said Daesung, looking the other way and scratching the back of his head.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlq1bltl0p
"We better go or else our one and half hours will elapse in no time," said Daniel.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdv64iCqhY
Instead of using any one928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcI5YymzIem
of the BigBang members personal cars, we used the two black SUVs. We 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVTw8waGkI
were driven to a fancy restaurant and as usual, we grabbed a lot of 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS164lymMLR
attention, especially from the customers.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3eUxqAfCo
I had to admit, the 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpfgRPYXgx
restaurant was nice and classy, suitable for the famous and the rich. As928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaF0BZJ15EU
I walked into the restaurant with the others, a fancy glass chandelier 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwJfqa48yYa
caught my eye. The polished wooden floor shone almost like glass under 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGoRylTHFO
the lights the chandelier reflected all over the room.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoB3Pp3rHcN
A smartly dressed 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkZoNXEp9j
waiter, who by the way, was super cute, came over. He gave us a friendly928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnetbs1RaLn
smile and I felt Christine nudge me by the shoulder and when I turned 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVAKscXwoFF
to her, she was smiling. Looked like she also noticed the waiter's good 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzyCtNfgED5
looks too. Damn! Why were Korean men so good looking?928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1eJVkc9CMR
We were escorted to a 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwkbhA5Yo5
round table big enough to cater a whole lot of people. Even ten. But 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6onxqKqjC
sadly, Zoey and G-Dragon weren't here.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO69j3CSrDN
TOP pulled a chair for 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxphjLWnoW
me and I sat down, thanking him as he took his seat beside me. Seungri 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4TAdAUff6K
pulled a chair for Christine who sat on my other side and Seungri sat 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWUMRJvzakY
beside her.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4IOcCn0lsU
"This place is so lovely," I said as I looked around.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhB9UndLZkt
"Tell me about it," said Christine.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMmtcYv5zz
"I knew you would like it," said TOP.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmpY2FMGoFC
"Ya, it's exquisite, but I'm only here for the food," said Mike who sat opposite me.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpFBt07OqyU
"So, let's order," said Daesung.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgwTC3STWkm
I took the fancy looking menu with the colour of velvet and the letters written in gold. Classy.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAnoqOQbvDu
After our delicious meals had been served, we ate. I enjoyed it as I savoured every little food in my mouth.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzTkcNMlQv
As we were having our 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHvslE1Hv9
dessert, we were chatting and there was a lot of laughter all around our928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9baMKpCoWO
table. It was fun to be like this, all together as good friends and 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9FA8IBaMav
laughing about. I kind of wished Zoey and GD were here. I bet they were 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhqcMkhslM
having fun wherever they were.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALDNFfv8Lk
While I was having my 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdgY21KrzE7
strawberry cake, I felt the vibration of my phone in my pocket. Must be a928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq8oRNMZfFm
message. I took out my phone and I was shocked to see that the same 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ646NRSVwsA
unknown number had sent me a message again.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡucUffpGyRl
I tapped on the message 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrgK5z4tVEA
icon and the first message the unknown number had sent to me was a 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1s9atRJheF
photo. I had to download it first before I could even see it. And then 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWX31SdV6B
the next message was more surprising.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhPEzxFlHiV
"Aren't you going to do anything about this?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3vtaTw75U1
Anything about what was 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrm97FGn6Nr
the question. Had this had to do with the photo? Must be or else the 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWj3wQPy7r7
unknown person wouldn't have texted me this message.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKynYcB1Sv
I decided to turn my data on and download the photo. Just as I was about to, my phone went off.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKS0te8j3Sf
"Dang it!" I muttered to myself.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTDtmUekvp
"Hey, what's wrong?" TOP asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr7E5DB4X3j
"Nothing, my phone went dead. I hadn't charged it last night."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMiaRbDhLF6
"Was there something important you wanted to do?" Taeyang asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ryG4wEvzg
"Not really, it's not important." I shook my head but my thoughts still lingered on the unknown photo.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm8XgnYe5DB
"Did Zoey text you back?" Christine asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRkWVrUfDx
"No, why?" I asked as I picked up a piece of strawberry cake with my fork.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8YKbl7ZKIt
"Well, your phone vibrated so I thought you had received a message from her."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg1Fv7LGKns
"It was nothing. Wherever Zoey is, she is having a lot of fun."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxuZLukXzUt
"Hey, what's up with GD and Zoey anyway?" Taeyang asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6AZsAruKZw
"Isn't it freaking obvious?" said Daesung. "Those two seem like a couple now."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42e1qhyHYm
I almost choked on my cake but instead, I cleared my throat. Christine rolled her eyes.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ75KyKiWqnb
"Well, that wasn't going to go on unnoticed forever," she said.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2RA7SbFCNQ
"Wait, for real?" Taeyang asked, with a look of surprise.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdk3cChOId3
"And you already knew, didn't you?" Mike asked looking at Christine.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3IlIBHw8K5
"Oh, please," said Christine rolling her eyes. "Don't tell me you haven't noticed how close those two are nowadays."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMeUYBstNR
"They have always been close," said Seungri. "But this time, they are just way too close."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11rHSoaYcY
"For them to disappear like that together, it counts for something, right?" TOP suggested.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5EXalDfvuA
"Can we please stop 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr7lccEJYk5
talking about it?" I asked. "There are people around and if they hear 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBSiYsQSvGg
all this, some of us would be hanged when this spreads like wild fire."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBzEmbilREH
"Why do you say that?" Daesung asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu043ybrBTo
"Oh, oooh, oh," said Daniel waving his hand from across the table. "May I say it?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GNIiRarG8
"No, let me," said 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzQkwFdx3j
Christine, as she put her hand on mine and looking at me convincingly to928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtg2fgJ9DI8
allow her to say what she wanted to say.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgnntfpAhg1
I shook my head at Christine and she leaned back on her seat with a groan. Daniel smiled when I nodded my head to let him go on.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpazhgRetv6
"Because, Collins gave 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKALVSBoIhM
these girls a golden rule when we were coming here," said Daniel. "And 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsWQjPGqgQC
that is, none of them should date any one of you BigBang members. 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFD9qGJT0qu
Never."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0fkbJH2c4
There was silence on the928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIuYiF9nFg
table and I couldn't help but feel a little downcast. Christine 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5JKAMCkmE
continued to eat her dessert like nothing serious had been said. I 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrBoui7X9sk
looked over at my brothers who seem to be enjoying our humiliation.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFL9h56ZyC5
"Is that true?" Seungri asked, looking over at me.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9BvujXDS7
"Ya, it's true," I said as I slowly chewed the cake in my mouth.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0gXpcGuHDJ
"Oh." Daesung looked a little disappointed as he stared down at his plate.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyfrCE1rRl
"Who cares? It's not like it's that serious," said TOP as he shrugged.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSl9YgYfoj6
"It's serious to 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIVVJmcaqO0
Collins," I said as I turned to look at TOP. "We're only here to 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqKhJmaFyL
collaborate with you and that's all. Not date, get married and have 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxXPQJ4rT0
babies."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfXlxMdy1iF
That was odd coming out 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmyt7L4nmro
of my own mouth and the others knew it too. Everyone's eyes were on me, 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGBeQrC1clP
with looks on their faces that I couldn't describe. This was 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm2HwTePgej
embarrassing. My hands were now curled into fists as they rested on my 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPcetMWJYP4
laps.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRliLUfG1pq
"Sorry, that came out wrong," I said.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD30uRQEr8x
"Well, you did catch us by surprise by saying that," said Taeyang.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrLFq4qEGx5
I really did. Something 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcgQGf3tu7e
had gone totally wrong with me and I could feel it. My thoughts were 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtW19liZoZj
spinning in my head and I felt like I had no control over how I felt.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDsSGkBKm0b
"Excuse me, I'll need to use the rest room," I said as I drew back my chair, stood up and headed straight for the ladies' room.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjo6tuimV6
I quickly closed the 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp8PgGEDLGH
door immediately I stepped in the ladies' room, leaning my back against 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtTc2YThyQs
the door. My hands flew to my hair and I took a deep breath. I walked 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafp1BdlyIm
over to the sink and stared at myself in the mirror.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHuggnzD6bK
"What's wrong with you today?" I asked my reflection.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE6rXIiFWsW
I shook my head and I 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbGld4bmEuv
knew I wasn't alright. Something was definitely wrong. Was it the fact 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjEzJY5VVMP
that Zoey and G-Dragon were together? As far as I know, I wasn't really 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhpUenBm8k
supposed to care. But I did.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFv5biGe1Tl
I looked at myself and I928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdAEDC1hm6
could see the sadness in my eyes. Were they for G-Dragon? I shook my 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT57oSpwwCP
head at the thought. No. They weren't. He and I were still at war with 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMNrBJbyrrZ
each other and that made no sense. I had to stop thinking about these 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjbiNd7vPX1
things and focus on what's really important.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wQtv5DgS0
I quickly took a deep breath to try and pull myself together. I rinsed my hands, left the room and went back to our table.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ75s77xNhQQ
"Are you okay, Sam?" Mike asked as I sat back down.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0jljElNS2m
"Ya, I am. I just feel horrible that I said that."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJyeOzdvFwX
"We think we know why you did," said Christine.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEiGgsZpO5w
I gulped. What had these928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwM4u5d7cWN
guys thought of now? If it was what I thought it was, I would rather 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡriptSlTMDD
not hear it. There was a moment of silence at the table.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhr4oLUIQwM
"Zoey has you so worked up that you're irritated," said TOP.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfVrREvr8qA
That was not what I was expecting. I was wide eyed and in my heart, feeling a little relieved.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡavoq9FkpSw
"Ya, I remember when we were coming here in the plane and Collins told you to watch over Christine and Zoey," said Mike.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYl0BKIxOe0
"And I have been a good girl on my part," said Christine making an invisible drawing of a halo above her head with her finger.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCotJYOcdMz
While Christine was one 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBWS4RrLrei
who at least had her hormones in check, Zoey and I were pretty much 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDsabwC43EJ
guilty. I couldn't tell who was worse between either of us. I bet I was 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhjlEf99mo
worse.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNNfg8ioWqV
"Well, I guess I'm also guilty myself like Zoey," I said, admitting to everyone.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1cOh4lHOG
"If you mean TOP flirting around with you, then trust me, you're not," said Daniel.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPoAs33KYi
"Hey!" TOP looked a little annoyed but rather amused. He ended up laughing.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5PCh2oOVfo
"And me calling you my panda," said Seungri, with a smirk.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy64xzDGhWC
"You see, Sam, people just like you," said Mike. "And these guys shouldn't dare make a move of kissing you."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjBYTD47cnT
I blushed. "Mike!"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDqD6q0P7M
"Don't worry, he is just being protective over his sister," said Daesung, laughing.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIiowQucBf5
"I've tried kissing 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQWzga0aTc
her," TOP challenged as he looked over at my brothers. He raised an 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkquDocbwWe
eyebrow. "What are you going to do about that?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7V0q33p4k
"Uhh, if I were you, I 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNAhYATBwJK
wouldn't challenge them, TOP," I said as put my hand on his shoulder, 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUkIkL01I0g
looking over at my brothers who looked set on tearing TOP apart. And I 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxG3NyQbitU
caught a glimpse of Daesung rolling his eyes at TOP. "You would end up 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1zAYrRixH6
regretting it."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtU7nAR7ayN
"True," said Christine, nodding her head at TOP. "These boys are like monsters you can't beat. Only Sam can handle them."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVq1Z5Zv6R8
I looked over at Christine with a look that said 'that's not true.' Christine shrugged.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsV7Xz8asbv
"Fine, I'll listen to 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPLvdgX9b6
you ladies," said TOP as he looked at Christine and I. "Most especially 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG6pp5W3ktV
because Sam says so." He gave me that killer bad boy smile of his and I 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhEO5DnofIO
blushed.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9PJ7mccoe
"Well, we better go," said Taeyang.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL2PLn8PRa9
He was right. We only had a few minutes to get to YG. And Collins was one person who's strict when it comes to time.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsW9pvVu3fB
After TOP paid the bill, we left the restaurant with the paparazzi taking pictures as we walked out.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡflRhC7Sazy
We got to YG just in 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBd2tz9dKG
time. I just hoped that Zoey and G-Dragon were back here. I didn't want 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGmD6DJjD6N
Collins on my throat and giving him the eye, wasn't going to help.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVn1fHlTmpc
When we got to the studio, we found G-Dragon.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡexzCasfUlZ
"Hey, where did you two disappear to?" Christine asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNEwxNpqC6M
"We just went out," said G-Dragon as he looked around the room.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ95IwyKJ9Lt
I couldn't help but feel928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡByWWiINE9T
that something was wrong, just by the look on his face. "What's wrong?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhnX5VjvGvX
I asked him with my eyebrow raised.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3KYp8XZDXv
"Huh?" He appeared to be absent minded. Was he looking for something?928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgjR2ytAHL
"I was asking what's wrong with you? And where is Zoey?" I asked as I also looked around.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxg8S1a7woA
"That's the thing," said G-Dragon. "I can't find her."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrNEZzfXQZp
I felt something inside 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrpZhnewds2
me break and my eyes bulged out of their sockets ready to fall out. I 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYAkf3pb8z1
couldn't believe what I was hearing.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7b7dTregQ
"Are you for real?" Taeyang asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrYA4RfGfu2
"I'm serious," said G-Dragon.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2oTdrUkl3l
"Wait, do you mean you 'lost' her?" Mike asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3AhZ3QxsYL
"I didn't lose her, I just can't find her."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiV6ebiCtqb
"That sounds more like losing her to me," said Daniel.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzHNfPJbYI
"You guys aren't helping!" G-Dragon exclaimed throwing his hands in the air in frustration.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBw0JP1UF7k
"Where were you guys first of all?" Seungri asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPK6q8s4RWM
"We first went to have lunch then the two of us went to the park."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL6tRgxXXwB
"Then?" TOP asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1EIUW4MVAa
"I don't know, I went over to get some ice cream for the both of us, and the next thing I know she was gone."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy856MLecxp
"Are you sure?" Daesung asked. "Did you look everywhere for her?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2OHsi7xdY
"I did. I even asked people around and they hadn't seen her. I thought she would be back here."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxpC0fPJdq
"That would be unusual, given that Zoey doesn't really know the city so well," said Taeyang.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZjZEqNfKc
"But where could she be?" Christine asked looking as worried as I was.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfUTn5GoQX
"Try calling her," said Seungri, turning to Christine.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4nAYLHF3a7
"I just hope she is okay," I said as I rubbed my neck.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfUGrui9I0F
"What are we going to do with Collins?" Mike asked looking at me.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡal0ID5bdps
"I don't know," I said. "Hey, do me a favour and try to call the hotel and see if Zoey is there."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl0Kbptu3LP
"Sure thing," said Mike as he pulled out his phone.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsoJPQmpAZ
"Her phone is off," said Christine her phone in her hand.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTmtvljcEj
"Oh, no, this isn't good," said TOP.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1RQ5YpiwVo
"Again, Zoey is putting us into more problems."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6M3Xb92oql
I couldn't help but 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegZ0N5VTa3
wonder why she went off like that. Something wasn't right. Was G-Dragon 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmJIfr6ENr
not telling us what was really going on?928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3EGqN4383E
"No one has seen Zoey go into the hotel," Mike announced.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEuyZQRmEpZ
"We're goners," said Seungri as he dropped himself on the couch.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnEvcPQbQjX
"We've to look for her," said TOP.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDE9rQCdQL6
"But where can we start looking?" Daniel asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBIefsmsWFa
"I don't know, but we have to go and find her," I said.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuh22U4ZgUh
"And we have to do something with Collins," said Taeyang.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5mPAiTFjP
"Did someone say my name?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxL6CzfVXq
I cringed. He was one 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW2dV8WsxTo
person I wasn't ready to face right now. Everyone else wasn't ready to 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUqp8SGBadT
either. We slowly turned to look behind us and Collins stood there with 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMw68XDitZK
the music producer.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHhTvM8Yf9
"Why are you all looking worried like someone has gone missing?" Collins asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ4LYaxBj8m
I sighed. If only he knew. But if he does find out, he wasn't going to forgive us that easily.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19y3FlHcDz
Collins looked on at us, waiting to answer him. What to do now! We were going to be in such big trouble.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ64Th62Tzh7
"Looks like you aren't 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvv7MOaIoAQ
going to answer me, so let's get back to work," said Collins turning 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGqHZhPp57
away from us and heading towards the console.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4qMQLCqT0g
"We will work on the backup vocals," said Collins. "Zoey, Sam and Christine, you're up."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dv5wW6Z5D
I looked at the others 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOmlIvHFR2
who hadn't said a word. We all looked at each other. Someone had to do 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEi6LKmKgN7
something or else we would be toast.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx3FovHcIUd
"Are we going to start?" Collins asked looking behind him as he turned on his chair. "Where is Zoey?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSx1MEchTVS
It was about time he noticed. It looks like we ourselves weren't ready to tell him that Zoey is missing.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlxqbDZuJji
"What's wrong with you, guys? Why aren't you saying anything?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXMn3CN1ZQ
"Zoey isn't here," said Mike.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQpB33W5eud
"Ya, I can see that. Where is she?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmW2O2uPN8z
"She wasn't feeling too well," I said. "So she went back to the hotel."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBfqgTKAsU6
"What? Did she eat something bad for lunch?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKTTzuzCRA
"Ya. She did," said G-Dragon.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFqO9COAsd
"So, do you think we should continue or do this tomorrow when Zoey is around?" I asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Ttb6xE3nA
"We should just do this tomorrow," the music producer suggested, turning to Collins.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46mCMyhXws
Please say yes. I was praying in my heart that Collins would agree. This time I wasn't relying on my eye to do anything.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZMsWb8lK6p
"Fine," said Collins. "We really need Zoey, so we should just do it tomorrow."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuip6tUizB3
Mike and Daniel almost 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtFhF6IiMqQ
jumped with relief but they managed to control themselves. Christine 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Jkgm1SnG7
turned around so that Collins and the music producer wouldn't notice her928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWYAAzFB6s0
sighing in relief. The rest of us just stood there, pocker faced.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDXqbpFXmG
"That's fine," said Taeyang.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe63SvCGx36
"I really wanted us to be done with this today," said Collins.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfCwxiISZFe
"Looks like it wasn't meant to be," said TOP.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwFNpmcNvF
Ya. It wasn't meant to be. Looks like we were lucky. That meant we could look around for Zoey.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwq5LGuIcVs
"You guys can go back to the hotel and make sure Zoey is okay," said Collins.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNqRuDUjxtl
"I'll go," said Christine. "The others can stay here if they want to."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYaPN8y11U
Christine was doing the 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOgOm71aZu
right thing. If she went to the hotel, Collins wouldn't be so suspicious928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT72LM5plMm
of what's going on and just in case he decides to go back there at 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwIaHRFve1I
anytime, Christine might cover up for Zoey.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZItjklZar
"Okay and what will the rest of you all be doing?" Collins asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtmp1s2nvue
"Chilling," G-Dragon and I replied at the same time. We both looked at each other afterwards.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡga7VGD6WZH
"Fine, I have some other things to attend to. I might just go and check up on Lee and Yang Hyun-suk."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiTjJ5jT0DT
I wanted to ask where, 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeW0LMNgC7b
but I knew it was none of my business. I realised that I hadn't seen Lee928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PHjnoIOcT
the whole day. Must be she was busy with Yang Hyun-suk. Collins and the928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCB4JBEXuI
music producer soon left.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1fyoMjZub
I walked over to the door and checked if Collins and the music producer were in the hall. But they were gone.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOrDtXWTWG
"Looks like we have to split up and look for Zoey," said Taeyang.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa5h1ft4nxt
"Ya, we should," I 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5GOqB1UnB
nodded my head. "G-Dragon and I will take Christine to the hotel just in928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFVYZCKofP
case Zoey shows up and if Collins decides to go there."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRtiqAX3j5o
"I'll go with Taeyang," said Daniel.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDd3z3FBx9
"And I go with Seungri," said Mike.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuIgtMdfzmJ
"That leaves Daesung and I," said TOP.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKALz4EOqPA
"Great, let's go," I said and we all walked out of the room.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ZWEW1kves
As soon as we left the 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVHTvODcFL
YG building, we split up in the parking lot. Luckily, Collins had 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfRbZKV6VS
already left. Christine and I went with G-Dragon in his car. It was 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxxRHa2CogW
important that I had to talk to G-Dragon concerning Zoey.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB0O6uKY3KQ
We soon arrived at the hotel and Christine got out of the car. I gave her my phone for it to be charged.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHt6V3fPY9h
"Call us if anything good happens," I said I looked at Christine through the window.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8eBAaV3ZPM
"And what if something bad happens?" Christine asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzGUBIv89PG
"Like Collins? You can handle it," I said as I gave her a smile. Christine winked and wished us luck.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡILv2dt3217
G-Dragon drove away and 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJLDo62Ev0F
we first went to the park where he came with Zoey after lunch. I just 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrNbfMa2Mf
hope she didn't go that far and that she was okay.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAuN271WnY7
"Did you two have some sort of argument?" I asked when we both got out of the car and I went round it to face him.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9XacTVGFz1
"What?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrjPwo8CIxv
"Did you two argue?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8C8AHvy4ZF
"No, we didn't," said G-Dragon as he went around me and started walking towards the park.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazK17NKcFh
I quickly turned and followed him. When I caught up with him, I stood in front of him to stop him.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWtDmtLDvOw
"Are you telling me the truth?" I asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPLZKNqAXX
"Do you think I am lying?" G-Dragon asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQ1eFEVg8u
"I think so." I said with my arms folded.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUtPOEWxfg
"You're crazy," said G-Dragon as he walked around me again.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZHq4zvBSxP
I huffed. He wasn't going to budge. I had to try something to get the truth out of him.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhCXBgiT6FX
With quick strides, I 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrh5pShKAu6
caught up with him again. This time I started to walk backwards so that I928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNE39BG0e0d
could look at him directly in his face.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBP8R7rgBl
"What are you doing?" G-Dragon asked as he looked at me, puzzled.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujJZQlZl6q
"I want you to tell me the truth."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpgI0VbMo1M
"You're stressing yourself out by walking backwards."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJwBHIuWkr
"Do I care?" I raised an eyebrow at him. "I know you're hiding something from me."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItVhXhMvWY
G-Dragon chuckled and 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkRlpgBNY3S
that almost made me smile. "Stop playing detective, my little kitty. As 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO0fDz6cvF2
much as it suits you, you're going to trip over and fall."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1iEolAdcg
"Then you have to stop me from walking backwards by answering my question."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1uHuPgoZ2N
"This is one silly method of interrogation if you ask me."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiuNTMkWvtx
"I can tell you're not telling me something. Zoey can't just leave like that without someone upsetting her."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEtuVqdWYO
"And how do you know?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTn84Eu3LN
"I'm her best friend. 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPULsF2wPL
And plus, whenever someone gets her really upset, she runs off without 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNlNeWLH3rB
telling anyone. She always wants be alone to think."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9DQ9FLt1Gc
"I hope she doesn't think of committing suicide."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkOI8QRfdYi
"Zoey can't end her 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUYIiMBLKf
life. Well, she hasn't tried to anyway. She's leaving the dream right 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLod5JH30XM
now and ending her life this early, isn't going to sound right. Unless 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9gbIxtOYMP
you did something."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ705DPrukif
"Me?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0JWM1f8AGD
"Da! Yes, you!"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVXim4ELNA
"What could I possibly have done for Zoey to try and commit suicide?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp3QC1nHk8a
"Don't talk about suicide like that." I hit him on the arm.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzXGlf6XfpA
"Ouch!" G-Dragon stopped and held his arm. "That hurts!"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIb98tm7SkC
"Well, you deserve it. Now tell me the truth." I put my hands on my hips.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8328v03Rg
"I'm telling you, Zoey and I didn't argue."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSwiKDLxOc5
G-Dragon looked me in the eye and he seemed really convincing.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ50goD93ypP
"Okay. I believe you," I said. "But you must have said something that upset her."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHcdG0NcMaI
"I can't really remember what I had said to her. Maybe she just left on her own."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXA0eV3w8Ui
"And with her phone off, that's a bit strange, don't you think?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH2Tmuwwaox
"When we find her we will ask why she ran off."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPhshc27TTZ
"Ya. Sure."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZa8NjSPn8
"Now, will you please 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUmWxIAmww
stop walking backwards? I don't want you to trip and save you from 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSStsBfNuRX
falling. That will spark rumours again like it did during the 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1RL2x4qVb
interview."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2vr4p4V5s6
I didn't say anything, 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxFtXoMMCVt
so I just nodded my head and faced forward. We went further into the 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvWqRzr7GJ
park and as we looked around for Zoey, we sparked some attention from 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnJ1yb5j2fS
our darling fans. We signed a few autographs and took a few pictures and928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwe0twmxxZ1
went on with our search. We even asked some fans if they had seen Zoey,928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrGvzoNd2p
but nothing.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgnuCZFk0t
We were already half way into the park and still no sign of Zoey. We were by the lake and I sat down on the grass by the banks.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzCCEULcb7r
"Are you tired already?" G-Dragon asked as he looked down on me.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIQhJDKOWZ9
"I'm not," I said as I 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs7AWfYuXPF
removed my slippers and felt comfortable with my bare feet on the grass.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxMaqFghe9
"I'm trying to figure out where Zoey could be."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFnZXPkNglm
G-Dragon sat down beside928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVKzUkIGZt
me and the two of us were silent, looking at the pond. Laughter filled 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsR2HWsCOT
my ears as I saw a group of kids playing from across the pond. Some 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9OVA5pH6zM
couples also sat on the grass close to the pond. It was such a beautiful928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLwa66gWOL
day and sitting by the pond felt so relieving.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGAUTXT7hvj
"Have you figured something yet?" G-Dragon asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4TNQxnu8J
I frowned and looked at him. "No, why do you ask?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQY0ZVgy1p
"You seem to be smiling to yourself," said G-Dragon as he looked at me.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYtejNx7hkG
"No, I'm actually enjoying what I'm experiencing right now."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe59hsSBVys
"You love nature, don't you?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2SmiEEhxSM
I closed my eyes, still smiling. "Ya. I really do."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTb27XuJ7jd
At that moment, I was so928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo3BVJHNYw0
caught in the little world inside my head. For a moment, I forgot about928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ZdTG4twIr
everything. About looking for Zoey, being famous, and the whole world 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgNw0ttuN7
with everyone and everything in it. It's like they never existed because928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXMCFk0LR3
even the noise around me seemed non existent.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjFlelqhtZc
Then I felt something 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMNk6PFPUK6
brush against my hand like a soft feather. The touch brought me back to 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnre7LfbHHG
reality and I quickly opened my eyes. I looked beside me and G-Dragon 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX2oCb4PfZ5
was staring at me.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyfLrlI35Ys
"What?" I asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAjlEP05Jgr
"Has anyone ever told you how beautiful you are?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9406kxnmSv
I blushed all of the 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqesAceaKcl
sudden and I looked down. His hand covered mine and for a moment I 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQX1NCDjKZD
wanted to pull away. But then again, I couldn't explain how I felt with 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSIWdOue5Dt
his hand on mine. I felt this weird comfort.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPlaP6ZGav
I would have said yes to928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwW6swpeGKh
his question, but no words came out. This wasn't right. As much as I 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmEafQeBQR9
wanted him close to me, I knew I would end up getting hurt because we 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5eHc6EwXut
were never meant to be.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMlZm4H1L77
"Umm," I pulled my hand away and put it closer to my body. "Please don't say that GD."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvPteuPCYP
"Why?" He asked softly.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4IP8FFl3w
"Because this isn't right at all and you know it."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZY7AQgTA7t
"What do you mean?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNqGFDIuVHK
"You know that I ready know about Zoey and you. You guys are more like a couple."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXgRJkJxte
"So?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCWdSC3zSeN
"I want you to stay far away from me as possible. The further we are apart, the better it is for the both of us."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZaDZEmq4IP
"Looks like you figured out that I don't really like Zoey as such as I like you."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzTHl44hyr
I didn't say anything as I continued to figure out what to say next.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZ5J3JuCr1
"Then why are you leading Zoey on? She doesn't deserve this, you know?" I asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTfj86yKhBv
"I know."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsf2UEjZNnl
"Then why are you doing this?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs4ipSQDjjY
G-Dragon looked at me like he never had before. He soon looked away and sighed.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnRoVag2Oq
"I'm doing this because of you, Sam. But even if I do so, I still can't get you out of my head."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4pKpAYovFj
I also looked the other way, trying to act like those words hadn't affected me. But they did and they did so badly.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6wduratZo
"You should find another928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJy6jgJgoS
way to do so, GD." I turned to look back at him and he faced me. "But 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyc79KRVPU
not with Zoey. I don't want her getting hurt because of the both of us. I928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhNt0ZNj3pD
will never forgive myself."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1nQvhhol4
G-Dragon nodded his head. "I'll do so."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhKC4AH3hg
I wanted to smile but I 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWaBgXSQSUE
couldn't bring myself to do it. I hoped he kept his word and maybe with 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXaAUlYiNFY
this little talk we've had, we would be friends again and stop acting 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG8tZ2e3Qjj
like we had beef with each other.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv98edq1rbn
Just as I was about to 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Q4jXe54YM
ask him why he had been giving me the attitude lately and if it had 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNi4Df1GY11
anything to do with his jealousy, his phone rang. He quickly removed it 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgehlgtz4xm
from his pocket and answered it.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRwSlRGA8UY
"Hello? Christine?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1D8TqodafR
I was now attentive. Had she found Zoey? I wished I could have talked to her myself.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBtoXKgYEB
"Okay, we will be right there. Inform the others as well."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyG0AS5GuJd
"What happened?" I asked after he cut the call.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcimSAnOEpC
"Christine called to tell me that she knows where Zoey is."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlko3MDQDbz
"Where is she?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3vpVv4ryMz
"She is at a famous café. I know where it is."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIl06WV8me1
"But how did Christine know where Zoey is?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPWOaLRAoU
"Zoey's phone went back on and she texted where she was. And she is not alone."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6dO6AlrkW
"Who is she with?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnA6arOsahc
"We're about to find out. Let's go."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0qiDNB5aC
G-Dragon got up from the928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdn4VnmLNN
ground and he held out his hand to me. I took it and he pulled me up 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNwjZSELVv
from the ground. We left the park together, heading towards his car.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGDPvqIKUbU
When we got in his car, 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3EMqHHLnx
we drove through the city and we arrived at this small fancy café. We 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl2BVeSeonO
parked across the street and before we could get out of the car, I 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhOmNIAhyJq
looked across towards the café.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXj2ulBT60N
"Can you see, Zoey?" G-Dragon asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIMaHfsAqup
Through the huge window,928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5QHXaIXMF
I could see what was going on inside. Looked like a lot of people 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dYdlJSTYw
enjoyed coming over to the café. The place was parked for an ordinary 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsTJmJzhY8O
day in the afternoon.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMEq8F0riC
I searched for Zoey, but928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkjb8xpFesN
I couldn't see her. It was then that I saw Zoey at the far corner of 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCfAW5ygPq
the café. She was facing the window side and I saw her with someone. 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlxunUo90iZ
Sitting opposite her was a man in a fancy looking black suit. From afar,928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1IXXV8fsH
I could tell his suit was expensive and I couldn't see his face.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYHIk6uykZi
"I see her," I said. "And she is definitely with someone."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzanYBA1Hl
"Who is it?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW6yIjdgAnh
"I don't know. By the look of his suit, he seems like a business man or one rich tycoon."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJkImS7NyvR
"Seriously?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1Dvv8lQZ3
"You think I'm kidding?" I turned to look at him. "Or are you now jealous that Zoey is hanging out with someone who isn't you?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzp65tPlOGj
G-Dragon looked towards the windshield, avoiding my gaze. "No, I'm not. I'm just wondering who it was, that's all."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdO2kQKGMAj
I rolled my eyes and 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMBpBAHkSq
said nothing more. I went back to looking at the café and focused on 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzGI88jhlQ
Zoey. I decided to read her body language and see if she was okay. She 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6E4iMablxx
looked like she was enjoying herself, chatting with this stranger.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf1ePDGJEKc
She was sipping her cup 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKJoKA6tic
of coffee and she went back to smiling at the stranger. Something was a 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbvF8qzrjZb
bit off and I shifted on my seat to see if I was seeing right.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25ILsxXXnr
"Hey, is something wrong?" G-Dragon asked, noticing my tension.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdvmpIhpVZ
"Ya."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFfQd3MRz8E
G-Dragon also turned on his seat and looked through the window.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRvUPnXhBPr
Zoey's smile made me 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72UQUVliwx
wonder what was going on. She was smiling and chatting but she looked a 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuE3dcyYQSI
little nervous. Usually when she is with a guy, she was always the one 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJQmfj9LMb
who was never scared of leading the conversation and became pretty928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAX8U6kcvxo
comfortable with the person. Unless the guy was creepy enough to be a serial killer.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJowlKwIPl
I felt a threat coming 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrXqENmcdy0
up. Was this guy dangerous? Zoey had a nervous smile on her face and if I928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlrL1E6YyD4
was not mistaken, I think I noticed her fingers tap frantically on the 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIxEcTaoXxm
table. She did that whenever she was nervous. I had to know what was 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgA5Fdi9yo
going on in there.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMcYHMuOV2O
"Let's go," I said as I turned to look at G-Dragon. "I'm not liking this."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpa0O0XHGNy
"Thank you," said G-Dragon, looking relieved. "I had a bad feeling about this guy."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeVfrLHWCFC
"Ya, right," I said as I grabbed the handle of the door, opened it and stepped out.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cJgCuo6pz
Just as G-Dragon came 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp5qeZgZ5m1
out of the car, three cars appeared off the main road and came to park 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOYzIxE6Jo
in the parking space behind G-Dragon's car. The others had arrived.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7SZjwNyaQ5
"Christine told us to meet you here," said Taeyang as he and Mike came out of his car.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgosUgbXl8O
"Zoey's in the café," I said as I pointed across the road.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyX6lgbAG2v
"Alright, let's go," said Seungri.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKly45nC9B
When I looked back at the café window, I noticed that Zoey was all alone on her table. That was odd. Where was he?928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ7wSvZG1lW
"Oh, no, no, no," I said staring wide eyed inside the café.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHfV7iq7Wre
"What is it, Sam?" Daesung asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnd5NHeB00
I didn't answer him as I928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSAP8YDNvp
quickly dashed across the road without even checking for any cars. I 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjBhSbBAdsW
could hear the others behind call out to me to be careful. I luckily 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVpm083SjKZ
managed to reach the café without getting hit.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhxMLNQRzE5
When I got to the café, a928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhMZ82qW8N
few people came out through the door. None of them matched the person 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfUHbvKfSI
who was in the café with Zoey. I quickly went in and I found Zoey still 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlBgfgmNtD
sitting in the corner. I rushed over to her that my presence scared her.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQogtTnUliw
"Sam! You scared me to death!" Zoey held her chest as she breathed in and out so heavily, trying to calm down.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLYzyPYEYH1
"Where did you go?" I asked, taking the seat the stranger had been sitting on earlier.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0T5ph6N6wt
"Oh, I...um.." Zoey played with her fingers.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxtPTLJAIo
"Don't you dare try to 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwFOVV6AHO4
lie to me, Zoey," I threatened. "You went with GD for lunch and the two 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWDk8xFH5h
of you went to the park. When GD went to get ice cream, you had 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUHif0xBzB8
disappeared. And the next thing we know, you're here."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwfFY4mqFG3
"Christine told you where I was?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡog155H3Dca
"Of course she had to. We were worried sick."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLI4CIkfun2
I heard the bell of the 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjPAR4m50l
café ring and I knew the others had arrived. They soon came over by the 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwNZIYhB1K
table. Only Taeyang, G-Dragon and Daniel were the ones who came in.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy09yUXmhAD
"Zoey where have you been?" Daniel asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVyIvg6l2u
"And who was that guy you were with, huh?" G-Dragon asked, looking down at Zoey with a frown on his face.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPflxHh4mY
"Awww, are you jealous, my G-Dragon?" Zoey smiled at him.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7ei1UHWJ7
"Stop taking all this 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWX0iT9LjW7
like a joke, Zoey. I saw the way you were behaving with him. You weren't928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwb4CvlLz8v
yourself when I saw you from across the street," I said.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFwp1kBzDw
The smile on Zoey's face928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡck1EecS7ud
disappeared in an instant. Good. Maybe now she would take us seriously.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTtHqFfDqM
Her safety was way more important than she could ever imagine. If 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRbimavG2em
anything had happened to her, a lot of us here would never forgive 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHNuP5X7Qx3
ourselves.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5K3DHuLKxQ
"Can we please get out of here?" Taeyang suggested. "This isn't the place to discuss this."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88xyn90TJb
"You're right," I said 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjuNJvUXy7y
as I looked around the café and many heads were turning our way. I hated928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr1cl5TfCT4
attracting so much attention sometimes.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH1PAU5b4kC
The others had started 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSpbYGLxRG
to leave and Zoey and I both stood up from the table. I noticed the 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkzGUQTH6t
teacup the stranger had used and my mind still couldn't stop thinking 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5BBE0FNG9q
about who he was.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKO9u3dod51
After we left the café, 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVaL8JYGa2j
we went back across the road where the vehicles were parked. Daesung, 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUAp45WBUnf
TOP, Mike and Daesung stood waiting for us.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH7AKnIc9CE
"Thank goodness, you're alright, Zoey," said Daesung.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcftCU1G4Eh
"Ya, thank goodness you weren't lost," said Mike. "We wondered if we would find you in a ditch or something."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC6hx6fi7xF
Zoey frowned at Mike and all he could do was smile back at her mischievously.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUHIgNrHw62
"Let's all go back to the hotel, shall we?" I suggested. "Zoey can tell us everything from there."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXE4G4kTJJ
Zoey and I went in 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJ7WwEDKDP
G-Dragon's car making sure I sat in the backseat. The others got in the 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe6rND29NyP
other cars and we drove off, G-Dragon's car leading the way.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6ZMa79mz0
We were all back in the 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0PiDtGdLAn
hotel on our floor. Luckily, Collins wasn't around. I was relieved. Now I928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5chSRYmPX
could vent out all my anger on Zoey.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyEB2EqEfRY
We gathered ourselves in928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrykItZZx2R
the lounge. The others sat on the couch and made themselves 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfaiu7iqaTl
comfortable. Zoey and I were left standing and I looked at her, with my 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Zfh5dhv4b
hands on my hips.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSiNNbejCKU
"Okay, let's start with why you disappeared?" I asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3Fqx18oHk
"No, don't ask that," said G-Dragon. "Ask who she was with first."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uKz3zbQof
"I'm the one asking the questions." I turned to face G-Dragon. "I want to know what made her go like that."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYg8iaJrXF
"Fine, I tell you," said928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfTb9ECCbB
Zoey raising her hand to calm me down. "G-Dragon went over to get some 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDv2egfFCJw
ice cream when a person came up to me. Said he was my biggest fan."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3BcQ5MdIXW
"Don't tell me you fell for the person's good looks like always," said Christine shaking her head.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2NUOi3gE7u
"You know handsome men are my weakness," said Zoey. "Sorry G-Dragon."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5DgOAdIWBw
"No, I don't mind," said928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQegj0mSBaB
G-Dragon, shaking his head. I looked at him again and I was surprised 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHcjHqUd1n
with the look on his face that he really didn't mind at all.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM3l6kUa2fq
"So, he said he is your biggest fan and then what?" Taeyang asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrEDk5PDaYp
"He offered that the two of us go out for some coffee," said Zoey. "That's how I left."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSf1Q7V4UHf
"Now that makes no sense or maybe you have no sense, Zoey," said Seungri.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1No9lmCIfK
"Huh?" Zoey looked at Seungri, looking embarrassed.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGBMzEeDZa
"As much as that sounds 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC17hBxtj9v
totally embarrassing, Seungri is right," said Christine. "What you said 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9pe8Gl5Sz2
doesn't make sense at all. How could you go out for coffee with someone 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfa6CZYMbtd
you claims to be your fan without taking G-Dragon along with you?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfGnqTAm19c
I started to tap my foot928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ97x81KZD4F
and looked at Zoey, ready to breathe out fire if necessary. Christine 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxZbiCXE3h
was right and surprisingly, Seungri too. She wasn't telling us the 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKU2MoeBVJC
truth.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwFN2GfDrkq
"Come on, Zoey, tell us 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡztIhzivJ5f
what really happened," I said. "You couldn't leave without GD. And you 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdiUqEiyhjf
had your phone turned off. All I know about the person you were with is 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99vjMBWjVk
that he was wearing an expensive black suit."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9lnMHZykA
"Okay, do you really want to know the truth?" Zoey asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWD4Ik3zmS
"Yes!" everyone replied at the same time, that almost made Zoey jump in fright.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbgMx9rfzyE
"Okay, okay, eish," said928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtLvuk2CIG0
Zoey. "You scared the hell out of me. The truth is, I went with my fan 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf7HraSlYeU
because he insisted that I go with him and not tell anyone about it."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpAfM3iXTOJ
"Huh?" TOP looked confused.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡskI7hV1vSG
"What fan lays out that kind of condition?" Mike asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡboaF9vaveG
"Someone who was ready to take advantage of Zoey," I answered.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3BM9fG3nN
"If he did, you guys still wouldn't have found me," said Zoey.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡurgyAcBQqa
"If he did, you wouldn't have been looking so nervous in the café."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8v4YFq64a
Zoey was quiet and I still felt that she wasn't telling us the whole truth. I decided to play along and not say a word.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsj7Gh1ovgv
"Then what were you two talking about?" I asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpZrNI2B6c0
"Just stuff," said Zoey, avoiding my eyes. "About me and my celebrity life."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16ruZrI7S0
"You're sure?" I asked. "Didn't he talk about himself?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6St8yfESU
"Ya, totally." Zoey nodded her head. He never said anything about himself. Not even his name."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaUKLyaf3MO
"Then why did you look so nervous in the café?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zQ9nbN7nB
"He was asking some personal questions I didn't like."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIt9A4mbLRp
"Are you sure?" Daniel 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7NJKau5c3W
asked. "When someone asks you a personal question, you either snap back 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSYaFEZncsy
at them or walk away. Whether it's an annoying reporter, any of your 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaLegNQ8w7q
haters or even us."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd687jSrMOz
Daniel was right. Zoey 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOPuBpkZrs5
would have stood and walked away from the stranger but she didn't. I 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWUJczEfysI
wondered what question he might have asked her. That's if Zoey was 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgO5H5LKwxu
telling the truth.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbeQQYJFQyS
"I didn't want to look so mean in front of him," said Zoey. "He seemed like a very nice guy."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTQVT4jydW
"A very nice guy that 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTUkTq4bO3l
made you run off with him, made you switch off your phone and made you 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmi3AWNYF3
so uncomfortable," said G-Dragon, looking really irritated.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX2JeKUZzV9
"Come on," said Zoey. "He wasn't that bad, seriously."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ldc1xLUlH
I didn't want to 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXNNFvlhGh
pressurise Zoey with more questions. Right now, she was getting away 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2rYgDjgxd
with it. If she was hiding something, I would find out sooner or later.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEf88RLyuCH
"Okay," I said. "We're just glad you're fine."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6XhtjoiPiN
"And not dead," said 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSB4HZI3EsT
Mike with a smirk. Seungri and Christine who sat on either side of him, 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZBELayo8o
both gave him the elbow in the side and he howled in pain.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfz4dinWsVX
"I'll pretend I never heard that," said Zoey.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwf7DM2lfpT
"And you better get 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPwBpQAzyB
ready for Collins," I said giving Zoey a smirk of my own. "We told him 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCIBDM2tcO
you had a bad tummy ache and that's why you weren't at the studio."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaIRMBd6a0L
"Seriously?" Zoey gave me an angry stare. "Couldn't you have told him a better lie?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI13KTkkvSy
"That you were missing? Fat chance. You've already put some of us into enough trouble for one day."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOctntlZct
"Alright. Sorry. I won't do that again."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGN82FLq7Gq
I rolled my eyes, while shaking my head and went over to the dining table. Something told me it wouldn't be the last.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9sY1W9b5I6
"Well, now that you're found," said Daesung, as he stood up. "Some of us better get going."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6j8BkYeTc
"Sorry for putting you guys into so much trouble," said Zoey.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLdq666UQE
"As long as you're fine and Collins isn't going to kill us, it's okay," said Taeyang with a smile.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQW6cno1o4
"I'll be leaving too," said Seungri and he gave Zoey a hug and he walked over to hug me as well.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6fAmzXP2cT
"Alright, see you tomorrow," I said.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKmWPleQijh
One by one the BigBang 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLvezCWkvv
members started to leave, saying bye to each other. G-Dragon stayed 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmyJksi9zx8
behind with Zoey so that they could talk a little. Giving them privacy, 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMiyPwwmSgC
Christine, my brothers and I left for our rooms.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmyFk8Zh4GN
When I went in my room, I928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMWTz4mPns
went for my phone that was still charging on my bed. The phone was 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpLM7vZ74Ki
still off and I decided to switch it on. It was almost full.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHeTWDa467k
There was a knock on the door and I called out to the person to come in. Christine entered.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTcZxGt8Pbs
"Hey, can we talk?" Christine asked as she closed the door behind her.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Dk5xMHcs6
"About what?" I turned to look at her.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1m3tErnZso
"Do you really believe what Zoey told us?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBv2f5qduhD
"No, I don't." I sat on the bed.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrpl9MHvYSl
"Looks like I'm not the only one," said Christine as she came to sit on Zoey's bed, facing me.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDbeqHHfrW
"I wonder why she isn't telling us the truth."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ6o3zR7EP9
"Did you see the man's face?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVcuT4Pxe4
"No. All I could say is that he wore a fancy and expensive suit."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqRPPY16me
"I wonder who he is. Maybe he is some rich tycoon or something."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVxiwQszyN
"That's what I thought too." I gave Christine a smile.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlvXIX9SQ5
"I bet he is good 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdej5cPkXkN
looking too. I still wonder why Zoey left like that without telling 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlbIH5a94O4
anyone. Do you think she really did all that just because the stranger 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIGUz8QSg3
told her to?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW4tj4oYvoV
"Well, I believe her on that part. I'm just wondering how he managed to convince her to come with him. Maybe he threatened her?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFK1nznk6dg
Christine's jaw dropped. "Don't say that. I know there is no any other logical explanation, but I think that's way too far."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpUFoLN8Ssr
"You said so yourself, Christine. There is no other explanation. He might have blackmailed her or something."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4gyJlfoE8
"Okay, but blackmailed her with what?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaktfhK5SfT
"That we have to find out."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvgrSqwfdA
I was just about to grab my phone and check out if I had any messages when Zoey came in the room.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhjO0jqWNr
"Oh. Has GD left already?" Christine asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAsYHsIYFuB
"Ya. He left," Zoey replied. I heard a bit of sadness in her voice.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0NYBijv9e
"Are you okay? You don't look alright," I said.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIrYRJAHAMN
"I'm fine. G-Dragon and I talked about something serious."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCeN8vTuhMP
Oh my. Had he told her 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcfyPOM2AC
about what we had discussed earlier at the park? As much as I knew it 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9z53NcJHY
was going to hurt Zoey, it was for the best. Besides, she was going to 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP51Ixnms3x
find someone way better than G-Dragon. Hopefully, even me.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDGIXvw5d0
"What did you talk about?" I asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡICBK26MedE
"He was just pissed that928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKWhgMHsjL4
I left like that," Zoey answered. "He thought maybe he said something 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4ItnTkMYd
that might have upset me or something."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ972L7XgjLl
"Oh." That wasn't what I was expecting. "Well, I had asked him earlier if he had said something that might have upset you."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVE8CJvAG2t
"But he didn't."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9t5A1HmNW8
"I see why Sam asked," 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsK8EqZQgbd
said Christine. "When someone gets you so upset, you run away. You've 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7QgZm9rls
done that many times before back home during our school days, you know?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg3qOvHBPCM
"Ya I know. Forget about it." Zoey waved her hand in annoyance. "What's happened has happened."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwIIYCLLMKz
And I hope it will never928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡchE9u66SfF
happen again, but this guy in the suit still worried me. Until I know 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNzrA8gzjv2
who he is, I wasn't going to pretend that the worst has passed when it 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJivp1X4pKI
was yet to come at any moment.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhEfO83u9G
The next thing I knew, the door to our room flew open and Lee walked in.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbElYfzWN3W
"Lee!" the three of us exclaimed in excitement.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Xv7khNb0b
"Wow! Did you guys miss me?" Lee asked with a smile on her face.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTHPtJvVWw
"Ya, we did," said Zoey, putting her arm over Lee's shoulders.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefeaitNytt
"Well, I missed you too," said Lee. "So, what happened today? I heard you never finished up on the song."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEO1CgIhsgU
Christine, Zoey and I 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHCc7EmCOEr
shook our heads and talked randomly at the same time, saying nothing 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf652PqcY5d
really happened. Lee knew something was up and even if it could clearly 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzTdLe2bEh
show on her face, she didn't push us. She just smiled.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs8W9qXshF2
"Well, you'll tell me later," said Lee. "Collins and I were just....."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzRyETEHxa
"Collins is here!" Zoey's face went white like a sheet.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUoxXZByna
"Yes, he is," said Lee 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmfIhTc0Wn
with a wicked smile. "Now if you don't want to get into trouble, I 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWkSGqEGIW
suggest you go on your bed and cry out that you still aren't feeling 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFulfmCe0qK
well."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡISxSlwTXNV
Christine and I almost burst out laughing. Zoey frowned.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIrq7xYSpTO
"Ha, ha, very funny," said Zoey as she went over to her bed and sat down.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEfSzgtelXW
"As I was saying," said Lee. "We were in the lobby when we received a package from the receptionist. Said it was for you guys."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3eSBeIeoEL
"Us?" I asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuX2HpXLjYa
"Ya, the letter on the package was directed to The Toxins. It's with Collins in the lounge."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡerde4fXgkg
Christine and I rushed 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡteFJG8QsFl
out of the room leaving Zoey with Lee. She had to pretend she was still 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPqWbOvfVj
not feeling well. We found Collins in the lounge with the package in his928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqyD2dj7bm
hand.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrRpSgH7Nx9
"Hey, Collins," I said. "What's that?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBbLNSEJbG
"This came in for you guys," said Collins. "And with a letter too."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJmNOYWj0S
"Did I hear there is something for us?" Daniel asked as he and Mike came in the lounge.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJxeToAu9gs
"Ya. Here you go." Collins gave me the package.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfh8kGnE3ag
The package was wrapped in a brown wrapper and on top of it was a white envelope. It was directed to us just as Lee said.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxPAswgwGn
I took the letter and 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJk8pUSySOK
gave the package for Christine to hold and opened the envelope to remove928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZtB3E0hnE
a letter. I unfolded the letter and I read it out loud:928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWExJf4Xr2
"Hope you're all okay. Just wanted to say I'm your biggest fan. With lots of love."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHCM7xSAqr0
"That's it?" Mike asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZKmLqlT5V
"Ya, that's pretty much it," I said, looking behind the letter but there was nothing. "No name at all."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjaoJF4Whm
"Did you see anyone who sent this?" Daniel asked Collins.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkskpHeNyrK
"All that the 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnImsFTkGsr
receptionist told us was that some young man in a suit gave it to her 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3HBai0NMRx
and she should give either you guys or us when we came by the lobby."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJMsmRQXmH
My eyes went wide and my928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoBDLxZCMh3
heart pace quickened. Did Collins just say a young man in a suit? Maybe928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfeTTD43RpA
I heard wrong and needed some clarification.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxLQD9X9r4
"A young man in a suit?" Mike asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaM47tMYD1G
"Ya. Do you perhaps know him?" Collins asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlEYhnSpj8o
"Huh, no," said Christine, shaking her head.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1M4qq6x3Dp
"Oh. For a moment there, you guys looked a little frightened," said Collins. "I thought you might know him."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIMuCFPPukO
We did know him all right. The man who had been with Zoey. But who really was this guy? And this package? What could be in it?928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2jaXrKJeb
"Open it, Christine," said Daniel.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0T8e2dEf9
Christine threw Daniel 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAmfIYqzP94
an angry glance. She obviously didn't want to open it and I knew what 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgd2W72nfVn
she was thinking. What if there was a bomb inside? Or maybe something to928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzFot9CY1AH
threaten or blackmail us? You could only think of the worst from a 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJiXrXM87h
person you barely even knew.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQHhGVlF8v1
"Let me," I said as I took the package from Christine and I sat down on the couch with the package on my lap.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnCVA984Oy
Collins was watching us for a second and then left the lounge. I sighed in relief and so did the others.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bJUaJmxha
"I thought he would never leave," Mike whispered after we heard the door to Collins' room open and close.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHc5P81TWDO
"Can you check if he is really in his room?" I asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPIYUTX2FrB
Mike went in the hall and came back seconds later. "He is in the room."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZGhnmvxzx
"I'm really nervous," said Christine. "What is in there?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlatEwEGLC8
"I don't know," said Daniel. "I hope it is nothing that could kill us."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3Us7nMfD6
Mike hit Daniel at the back of his head and Daniel whined in pain.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsA2TZ5jkp
"Don't say that," said Mike. "I don't want to die soon."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFx9sFC187a
"Guys, calm down," I said. "Let's just open this thing and see what's in it."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42NbfAO58Z
"Okay, but take your 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtKEliFQorZ
time," said Christine. "If there is a bomb in there, I want to say my 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCWXy4vjm2X
last prayers before I leave this earth."928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNIlsdtur9k
I rolled my eyes but I 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTv0X8eNaq
was as scared as the rest of them. If we were to make out of this alive,928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqzQTFndUEr
I was going to kill Zoey myself for dragging us into this mess.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7z3d8Ex4I
I started to unwrap the package. It was a white box.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdfaQzx0wm
The other three couldn't928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdIDTp3fHWx
stop staring at the box and I needed to end this paranoia once and for 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb49ugGP5Fo
all. I quickly removed the lid without thinking that there might be 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDEg6Vx1nxC
something dangerous in the box. The others even covered their faces. But928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySw4YDoABh
nothing happened.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNd9vFk4kdN
"What the....?" I looked in the box and what I saw, shocked me completely.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1UetaOtkVA
"What is it?" Christine asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZcWwIcBki
I looked up at the 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8prk0mk5FV
others and they bended over to see what was in the box. Their jaws 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoldKDmszqV
dropped almost at the same time and we looked at each other.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡek4X486eZl
"This is just ridiculous," I said as I shook my head.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAB5UUgbXxD
Christine, Mike and Daniel suddenly burst out laughing.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoqLGMiZaPl
Zoey and Lee came rushing into the lounge.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVoMmGPyNn
"Hey? What's going on?" Zoey asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNjrqSu2LC
No one answered. I was too speechless to say anything and the rest were still laughing.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51UUpd7Usf
"What is in the package, Sam?" Lee asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpPmFoN4FW
I soon removed a little cute brown teddy bear and held it up for Zoey and Lee to see.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ694DN32dCN
"Huh? You're laughing all because of a teddy bear?" Zoey looked at the others, wondering if they were okay in the head.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmY1XG1rkAw
"Oh, my goodness, Zoey," said Christine trying to catch her breath with tears in her eyes. "Can't you see it?"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNxXSe3F5gc
"See what?" Zoey and Lee asked the same time.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfIpfbOxxLZ
"The...the...suit!" Mike laughed even more, pointing at the teddy bear.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKmiNAImTO
It was then that Zoey 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhDqP5KhqV7
looked at the bear in my hand and recognised that the tiny teddy bear 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPmvBr992bU
wore a tiny black suit with a tiny black tie. Zoey looked like she was 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUdrGBzajRz
about to get sick. Looked like she already figured out it was the928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8tQsPCI3B
stranger who she was with today that sent it.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIFxMYtdvqs
"Guys, what am I missing here?" Lee asked.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvhcWLg0E1
"Zoey will tell you all about it," I said. "I believe this is yours." I gave the teddy bear to Zoey who held it in her hand.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJFXDCBxMV
The other three continued to laugh when they saw Zoey take the bear. Lee looked as confused as ever.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYdkhGMm5y
"And here I thought it was a bomb," said Daniel, wiping away the tears in his eyes.928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4TgmjY5UwT
"Ya. But it just turned out to be a bear in a suit," said Christine. "A harmless bear!"928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98UD0MPeXY
This time, they laughed 928Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlbVLUNU97o
