Have you ever been awake1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZPaq7p1R4k
for so long in your bed with no thought or sign of sleep and your heart1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtuB7GWxewk
isn't at peace because you're afraid of what's going to happen as the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Qsh5bgBtN
day goes on?1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzl4VSzaMUT
That's how I felt right at this moment.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIALDnoRtP9
I tossed in my bed, 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmnwOShMQz
turning to the side and looking towards the curtain. There was still no 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc9Ww1FFer8
sign of the sun coming up and I was getting frustrated. I wished the sun1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBr9K5OLKIY
could come up so that I could meet my end already.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5lfJYCQMWy
I quickly sat up and went for my phone on the drawer close to my bed. I checked the time. It was only 4 AM.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAy3hiWyIf
I fell back on my bed, 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxiuH0nBeb2
the back of my head hitting the pillows real hard. I clenched my teeth 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdAUGKQhCuh
in irritation. Sunrise felt like forever and I was already tired of 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TdJfZttTA
sleeping. This had been the third time that I had to wake up and only 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhlMbYzobW
realise that I had only slept for a few minutes. I wish I could sleep 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjSbTt6RG8
till sunrise, but waking up three times meant I was too bothered in my 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI0y0Dm28qj
mind even to dream.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBf1DT6J3P
I turned to my other side where my stuffed panda lay beside me and I cuddled it in my arms.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYuNMC4UcR
How I wish I could fall 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYC6BRVeHk8
asleep. I admired Zoey whom I could hear snoring slightly in her sleep. I1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf033FOm3v3
stared up at the dark ceiling trying to picture things in my mind but I1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXwFSVm2sm
couldn't. Even my imagination wasn't working.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzYsZFN3pKF
I sighed as I looked at the panda. I couldn't stop thinking of what I was going to do today, especially with G-Dragon and Zoey.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7RsyCwP2J
I knew I now had to face1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0oygl92j8
the music. And even though we had quite a hectic day yesterday, Zoey 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg3OQmgXGA6
hadn't given up on me about what happened with G-Dragon and me. And even1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4gbFPDasq1
though she was tired when we got back, she still hadn't stopped 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWmrIlDMFl
bothering me until she finally gave up and went straight to bed.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIkCffzszVJ
I knew her persistence 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNO3VxJCIT
was far from over and I had to prepare myself for more of it today. I 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYieyCfSoU8
know Zoey must be very worried about me, but I was more worried about 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOBjKbPo7PU
her if I had to tell her the truth.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2ZFRG2Ops
I know sometimes we 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZXcX4RooR
people lie to prevent the others we love and care about from getting 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEG4wnhEXLg
hurt. But there will come a point in time when you can't keep it to 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQAsJPurZK
yourself any longer because the guilt will eat you up inside. Sadly, I 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh22tRDvkOD
had now reached that point.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLD9u5wa9rJ
I sighed again as I 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTbFdwC18o
turned again to the other side, taking the panda in my arms with me. 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7UaKUtCKy9
What wrong did I ever do to be in the position I was in right now?1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXElfEltQmp
If it came to G-Dragon, 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3FHUK2sG27
he was going to be one person who will be difficult to talk to. I know I1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYBcbsSdzt
betrayed his trust, and trying to convince him was going to be a whole 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsI7XvM381x
lot harder.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZofDQFt0VK
How was I going to tell 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQV6MFGd4g
him that yes, Daesung and I did kiss, but all of that happened due to a 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJus4kvicA
completely different story? I know how bad he must be feeling and if I 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDImOxnO7T
was in his shoes, I probably wouldn't believe anything I would say 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGelOtC4NH2
either.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ77eENmunR2
I kicked out the bed 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3mQWI4YKjQ
covers and got up from the bed. And taking Mr Panda with me and my 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMrRAHjMztJ
phone, I slipped my feet into my bed slippers and walked out of the room1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZpE2IVhAY
in my purple pyjamas.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbb8pCrBOy
I went straight for the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFI65HtfF6
dark, empty lounge and I turned on the lights. I went to sit on the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTVbvJ6tWNA
comfortable couch and with my feet up and folded with Mr Panda in my 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyBxxCpE9nz
arms, I unlocked my phone and went straight to my contacts and called my1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQ63sre6UT
mum.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnEKOwIeqSL
Hopefully, I was calling1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCdtwIdAAw
her at the right time. I wasn't really sure what time it would be back 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3HbLBjrgZm
home in the U.S. I was too bothered to even try and figure out all this 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zpMveoJ1e
time zones nonsense. I just had to talk to someone. And why not my mum?1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOa7b1q8Rmj
I put the phone to my ear hoping she would pick up. I just hope she wasn't busy at work or something.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5nkFLHLS3
She finally picked up the phone on the fourth ring.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzhg7tSNPrH
"Hello, Sam?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8xJ9PEzF04
"Hi, mum."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7dyUI53pU
"Sam, how are you, dear?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP31SiFCe3h
"I'm good. How are you? Are you at work?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZMj9xnChq
"Yes, I am, sweetie. I 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibOy0LdRaA
am just looking at photos online on the computer. A friend of mine just 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8JCrK9L0x
told me you guys went out bowling with BigBang."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPg9SJ52LVy
"Ah.." I scratched my head. "We did, mum. And we had fun."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMjgmuN0vO
"Ya, I can see you guys 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDCHPqls2M
smiling and laughing on the photos." I could hear clicking in the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTfDIRshDCl
background and that confirmed that she was tapping away on the mouse of 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjQHAqIl9U
her computer as she looked at the pictures.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt5nKcIVXLh
"So, was it more like a competition?" she asked. "It's says here that you guys won."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWtAj1b8UJ
"It was mum. We won," I said with a smile. "You should have seen what happened. It was awesome."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7vNMt9mV5K
"I'll check out the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMlxGqDgmTZ
videos later on and see everything for myself, dear," I could hear my 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjU4sQ8LzPp
mum clicking quickly on the mouse. "Now tell me. What's bothering you? 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4CCzcvtnF
Why aren't you asleep?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡetISTU9zNi
I raised an eyebrow. "You know what time it is here?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQNhMWzwAe
"I'm your mother, Sam. Of course I know what time it is."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5fspgArF4
I could imagine my mum 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDnYwI9Qfj
with a stern look on her face as she said that. If we weren't talking on1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQ2XUWaZUE
the phone and I was standing in front of her, she probably would have 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSnFn3o47l9
her arms folded.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjsXFvrvtE
"I know its way too early in the morning for you to be awake right now," she continued. "What's up?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡekH6ZL13k5
"I feel my whole life has been nothing but a lie, mum," I said as I tugged at Mr Panda's ears.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiG1bmNsg2a
"Your name is Samantha Glasson and you're a famous pop star. That my child, is not a lie."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjRCnZTtfxR
"Mum, you know what I mean when I say that."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikdtboBgEe
She sighed. "What did you lie about this time?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBs8eCaAAdu
"I've lied way too much in my life, but this time, I think I'm in a really big mess that I can't seem to get out of."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ219g8lNOQi
"Tell me. I've all the time to listen."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRBZb7Qa1Xa
"I've been lying to Zoey1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9q9XC0z7Z2
and everyone else about G-Dragon and I, and I don't now how to tell 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFrRJlkc4tr
them, especially Zoey since she likes G-Dragon so much. It would crush 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzaI2RcEVrk
her if she finds out G-Dragon likes me and not her."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLU1kbUNIA
"I thought you girls weren't supposed to date any one of those guys."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn83OHYRnCp
My eyebrows shot up in surprise. "Wow. Collins really does tell you everything, does he?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRIO55B8Xh
"Whatever he tells you, we as parents have to know too. I hope Zoey's mum isn't going to freak when she finds out."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaZ2aFiq9vN
"Trust me, mum, Collins 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo9yyQzmgNN
has no clue with what's going on in our private circle and I suggest 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlnGJNTAXKj
that you shouldn't say a word either."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh9DHrw4fsj
"Is that a threat?" I imagined my mum's eyebrow raised.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡugsIir9jH9
"You know I can never 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD5zMrq3ojM
threaten you, mum. It's just for now until we come back home. It's a 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOmMXiaTYP
matter of life and death. I've no choice."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEyZZSH9rvn
"I know. But why does Zoey like him?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6swjd37ib
"Knowing Zoey, you must know by now the kind of guy she would fall for, mum."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAEhgDWZkGG
"True. But how come she likes him but he likes you? Don't tell me you also like him too."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHzxpZUbTPG
"Well....." I hesitated, trying to figure out what to say next.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3CtaXaQwmG
"Samantha Glasson," my mum's voice sounded stern now. "Tell me the truth."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZlanf4I9WU
I sighed. "I also like him, mum."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXjEBarkV7
There was silence at the other end. Until....1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXlnVIp4s5z
"WHAT!"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmBR7B8X8ke
"Mum, calm down. It's not what you think."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPYYd8oGrYB
"Then what is it? The 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJIjp3qSSx
way I'm seeing it, you also like him and you feel guilty because you 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyaT5LVhWDH
feel like you're betraying your best friend."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZFRQbJDRd4
"It was like that at 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5rwG2GXMtg
first. I really do like G-Dragon but I'm learning to like him as a close1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDwuVlPTMF
friend because I know how Zoey likes him and because of Collins' 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ynhuiA5xY
'golden rule'." I put "golden rule" in quotation marks with my remaining1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM1Ul9mQFIO
fingers.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs4QeAe98yq
"What do you mean it was like that at first?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJOd74sXJVZ
"I like G-Dragon, but he isn't the only one."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7OzGYUHXQq
"Don't tell me you like someone else from the same group too."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgar1pdoLOV
I closed my eyes as I winced. "Yes, mum."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqECvvPUkZb
She didn't say a word. I wondered what she was thinking right now.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafN2D2szbp
"You're really in one hell of a mess, dear."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3d9zxyC8XN
"And that's not the worst part."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FG22e9ELW
I told her what happened1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPM4Clrq9FM
the day Zoey went missing, making sure I didn't mention the stranger in1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKxSoxOp6D
the suit. I talked about what G-Dragon and I had talked about in the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOzejHzE7z
park and what we agreed upon. Then I told her what happened with Daesung1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5qFwDLcGu
and the kiss.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6hjlRbEPR
"You kissed?" my mum sounded surprised.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqklv8unyTT
"Ssh, and listen."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qYEcbnAtw
I told her that G-Dragon and Zoey saw us but they didn't witness the kiss. And I told her what happened afterwards.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVmJVtxxlpg
"You're in a real mess, Sam. You now have two people to tell the truth to."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAPyJtVNQw
"If it's not Zoey and G-Dragon, then it's the entire group."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpeFAOI37gO
"I know. But you can't lie forever now, can you?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUz4QbpCM4F
I thought of what she said. "You're right. We all deserve to know the truth someday."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtBekUE6i3B
"Are you scared?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZnvfpWvB2V
"I am. Maybe that's why I can't fall asleep." I hugged Mr Panda close to me.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6pYF4ftiC
"It's okay to be scared, sweetie. And it's good that you decided to come out clean."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqi6HT4h9DV
"I don't want people getting hurt because of me." I could now feel tears coming up in my eyes.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGdJ287bcAe
"We all get hurt at some1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4GcSZmlZ0
point in our lives, sweetie. That's why there is a time for everything.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ86jKLPnImu
Just wait and see. After the storm, everything will be back to the way 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdbhZ3vAHfu
it was and everyone will forget about it. Besides, no one can stay mad 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxOa7akew44
at you forever, Sam. Not even me."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdJbnObTjv
I smiled as a tear ran down my cheek and I quickly wiped it away.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ylpVg5OVb
"Thanks, mum." I sniffed.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9OLzkGxqeM
"Don't cry, okay? You're1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1oGNnlKMaw
a brave girl. Now, do me a favour and get a few minutes of sleep. You 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbGc5ij4cs7
will need all the rest you can get."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Bnrb0Yfdg
"Yes, mum. I will."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwfJdqn821d
"Bye, Sam. Tell me what happens, okay?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfRJDjfBwL
"Okay. Bye."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0QXhtuLg1A
I hang up and I quickly 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37KFUgkB7F
got up from the couch with Mr Panda and went back in the room, straight 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZMnHMpxdZR
into the bed covers. I fell asleep in an instant with Mr Panda in my 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXYb2eHp6p
arms.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrdi49QMaTi
It must have been some 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSqlLqmGSt3
time around 7:40 when I finally woke up. The sun rays shone brightly 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0tn3a7pi10
into the room that I had to shield my eyes with my hand from the light.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKrVEU28X8
"Wakey! Wakey!" Zoey came over and sat next to me.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdEnV2p6dd
"Mmmm." I murmered as I turned around and covered my head with a blanket. "Leave me alone."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzrXuTKVdX0
"You've to get up, Sam. We have a big day ahead of us."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ74NzAXsKj
"Isn't it a Sunday today?" I asked as I removed the blanket from my head.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaSP3BCHFYl
"Sadly, it isn't, my 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAj3NqMr2gC
dear kitty," said Zoey as she placed her hand on my head. "Looks like 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYsCYLj3q3z
you weren't the only one praying for it to be a Sunday."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5UnLYMT9nY
"Okay." I muttered as I sat up on my bed and rubbed away the sleep in my eyes.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhbumWAi8v
"You know you have a lot of explaining to do, right?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2WwBsbpRta
I yawned, then sighed. "I know. You don't have to tell me."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5USF9u4No
"So, start talking right now."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtfYg6zzjL
I looked at Zoey with wide eyes. "You want to talk now?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjSL4zCYBp
"Ya. I'm still really worried about you."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0S2R2hztK
Looks like I had no choice. This was it. Time to tell the truth.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡisXUYKShOR
"What I'm about to tell you, is going to crush you completely, Zoey."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1gKXFr40F
Zoey turned to look at me with a serious look on her face. "What are you saying, Sam? Is it that serious?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5gdHmdwfjK
"It really is, and I feel bad that I have to tell you."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh71s08ergA
I hesitated as I looked down at my hands and played with my fingers. Zoey put her hand over mine and I looked at her.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3LhXSrFln
"Just tell me, Sam. Even if it's going to hurt."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCOegB3OOgH
I closed my eyes bracing myself for impact. My heart was pounding so hard.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4WYFT8iwP5
"It's about G-Dragon and I," I said. "I'm sorry to say this but...."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEuLm5CUDNp
"You like him, don't you?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmmWyuEtDLU
I opened my eyes in shock. That wasn't supposed to happen. And what made Zoey say all that?1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0UEe6AFrQ
"I..uh...no, that's not it."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA3X85IId0B
Zoey laughed. "Don't worry, Sam. I know how much you also like him. I'm not mad."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoiauBS4Qms
"Zoey, that wasn't what I...."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI73JhEYs4E
"Expected from me?" Zoey1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjeoawbLXux
grinned as she flipped her hair to the side. "I know, you're surprised.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6X5OgPiRV
I like him, you like him, the whole world likes him."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIsUd84wkNI
"Zoey, I..." Zoey placed her index finger on my lips to keep me from talking further.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYgoLyINvhc
"I know you feel guilty 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGVn9RGFrpd
that you like him because I do too. Don't worry about it, because I know1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBa7t5tRRn9
that you wouldn't try to steal him away from me."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJroD3A772
I gulped. What was I going to tell her now? How was I going to her that G-Dragon liked me and not her?1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJc71WBP9O
"Aren't you worried that G-Dragon might just like someone else and not you?" I asked.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWCeHyxJZQW
Zoey shrugged as she was deep in thought. "I haven't thought of it that way. I know that he only has eyes for me."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGiD7amasIh
I wanted to slap my 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67AfolVdtH
forehead in frustration but I gave Zoey a weird look instead. I couldn't1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw9Vcc3NCvQ
blame her when you were blindly in love. But I had to stop this before 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLs8LYRw9Yb
it gets out of hand.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLI1S4w0UPI
"Zoey, listen to me," I 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3avSlT9qH
said as I looked at her in the eye. "I admit that I like G-Dragon, but 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2cMvnzQqmw
not in the way you think. You on the other hand, need to know that...."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡevLtpn8ISh
I paused. That was odd. 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOpUqTIG30W
The words were spilling out of my mouth just fine. What's happened now? I1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXi510gpkUZ
felt someone had just cast a spell on me and now I was tongue tied.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQ8SYhCNzJ
Zoey looked at me, irritated that I had stopped talking. "What do I need to know?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq5Matrn4bq
What was wrong with me? I1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9pynIzhhL
had so much confidence when I was talking just now and I still do. But 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGWsTcBRIM
now, I couldn't say anything. I opened my mouth to speak, but still 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlV6tB2SnW
nothing came out. Zoey shook her head.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6YFvBk42k
"You're weird, Sam," 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ046qpYfYqL
Zoey stood up from my bed and went straight for the bathroom. "When you 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLguota6TUV
finally have the courage to tell me what you wanted to say, I'll be 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vbDbEj07x
waiting."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFuB9ot7le
Zoey closed the door and1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJbDcGOJ89
I heard the shower tap turn on. Oh no! I blew it this time and that 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNEm8B0VFK
just proves that telling her the truth was going to be a whole lot 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQjN6EXyLLS
harder than I thought.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWBDx5XJwzi
At least Zoey knew that I once liked G-Dragon, that's if she really took what I said seriously.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvsKLAe6K7W
This was all so messed up and I felt like I was going nuts.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRHz7nFKfU
I stood up from my bed 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0sIhcKdI9
and started to pace up and down, thinking. What happened to me a few 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4yE2d0sMIT
minutes ago? Why couldn't I tell Zoey the truth? Well, half of it, which1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCsWofPxdPc
is the most important part.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2D7d9LtqUR
"It's not your portion to say anything to Zoey. And you know it."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsdNWsB8vBw
Whatever my conscious 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLPsaA74aE
was saying inside my head was true. G-Dragon did say that he will end 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhNPze7IYx
things with Zoey and tell her the truth. Was that why I was tongue tied 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFbBIFk89X
and I couldn't say anything? I had no any other reason as to why.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡym3DKlXQqn
If that was the case, 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYct8w0Jygc
then G-Dragon better do it fast. The earlier it was, the better. Before 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCSUnpXg9eM
Zoey really gets too much involved with him or else she would be 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSAA0f07Di
shattered completely.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhPCgxmwG9B
While I was trying to 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbqBnxnPWo
figure out what to do next, my phone rang and I went on the bed to reach1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUQeM4z6rH
out for my phone that laid on top of the drawer next to the lamp.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47k9l5desr
When I checked the caller ID, I raised an eyebrow. An unknown number. I wonder who it was?1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtju5XWkHJ
I answered the call. "Hello?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡits2QFW5vv
"Bonjour, mademoiselle," came a deep husky voice from the phone. The man had a French accent.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvsxTyTLAmQ
I held my breath. That 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkqqcRO8txX
sent a chill down my spine. Who was this? Dang it! I'm supposed to be 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLErho3WW9
asking that question, not thinking it.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDA9MhKjsWA
I cleared my throat. "Hello? May I know who this is?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ogL9BJpdL
The man chuckled. "Who I am isn't important. What matters is that we talk."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWGOyMEE81v
"Talk? Talk about what?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyEyEeBml7E
"Did you check the photo I sent you?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDKomzIEeL
"Photo? What...?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZc1QXMnz5b
I paused when I realised the photo he was talking about. I had completely forgot about it.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdx9N9tG4C7
"Oh!" I slapped my forehead. "I never downloaded it to see what it was." I raised an eyebrow. "What's the photo about?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiALWR9ZMhu
"If you haven't seen it,1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhquwv3MtM
then it's best you see it for yourself. I can't tell you over the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtHjwE3qArb
phone. When you see it call me or text, will you, sweetheart?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUnYyYtwpl
Sweetheart? What was this guy playing at? What was the photo all about?1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPmBSCDqm5T
"Are you trying to blackmail me with the photo?" I asked.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4i422mRS2
"I wouldn't call it blackmail. But everything would be more interesting if you're involved."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsiUae9xhqL
"If I'm involved? What do you mean?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2lVm9nCtjx
I could soon hear the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrqZ3WnkTHs
person hanging up and I growled. I looked at my phone like I wanted to 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxX4LrzJfaF
break it. What was going on today? First, I had G-Dragon and Zoey to 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1LhAahcy8
handle and now, I had this stranger calling me and making things worse.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2dI8IcQrw3
I looked back at my 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDRfcs0NGt
phone and started to go straight to my messages. I checked the message I1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjIwSewWxtE
had received from the unknown man and I realised that I still hadn't 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4nJBmvvin4
downloaded the picture. I switched on my mobile data and started to 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHC97qIiD8
download the photo.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvTSVsYXTsr
"Sam! Zoey!" Lee came all of the sudden into the room. She almost scared me.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHP8vV11FsF
"Goodness, Lee!" I held my chest as my heart beat fast. "There is a thing called knocking, you know?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPdCDDBFK0
"I know, I thought you guys were still asleep."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdR8UsfYgE
"No matter," I said. "We're all awake as you can see."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLbre7x4vq
"Okay. Get ready, we have to leave for the studio."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnz2UEZ5SJL
I nodded and Lee left. I1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKdDoWamK8q
went back to looking at my phone. I frowned. The internet was so slow 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA6VR52qeGN
today. The photo hadn't finished downloading yet.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡerOPeQ6hZk
"I'm done," said Zoey as she came out of the bathroom in her towel. "You go get ready."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCc9Kb1RnS
"I just want to see something first," I said as I pointed at my phone.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4VMLzBaHe
Zoey walked up to me, took my phone and threw it on her bed.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTCddvhHrR2
"Zoey!"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJCGb8Pj5g
"Not a word, Sam. You're1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTkhOv083y
always the one telling me to get ready and be punctual, but you don't 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bZId1Ga6i
want anyone telling you anything. Just go take a shower. I wonder what's1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2BN7XRGzP
up with you today."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA6rohaDc15
If only she knew. So 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz4okoPd7o4
many things were running in my mind that I couldn't seem to focus on one1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLR0BLfNhZB
thing because something else would just pop up all of the sudden.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYdCQLsNVM
I went to the bathroom 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXawqfatVS6
and locked the door behind me. Before I could undress and get into the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW2pcZhcUdx
shower, I went over to the mirror above the sink and looked at my own 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwfqmry2RU0
reflection.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4MZyehxWR
I looked like I hadn't 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9CWNqyafEE
had sleep in days with all the dark circles underneath my eyes. I was 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡch2SXl6G9Z
deeply troubled, that's for sure. My problems just got increased by one 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zzXkpVsgS
if not by two.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5UjbIx1pNJ
G-Dragon and Zoey were 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1iQasKabX1
my main problem to tackle today. And all of the sudden, an unknown 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GwvECS3lH
stranger calls and tells me about the photo which I had no idea or clue 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzyfVBoYWV0
about. And why he sent it to me was the most confusing part. If he 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOosxgnfRrM
wasn't blackmailing me, then what was this charade about?1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFWeWrCUor
After I took a quick 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQEq4xA8UGU
shower, I quickly went back in the room and I went straight for my phone1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP9D7FCJx4C
on Zoey's bed. Zoey had already dressed up and she went past me into 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZAKhw5f8Y
the bathroom to get her makeup done.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXNY0nuPwtr
I unlocked my phone. I 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡucC25cMbHZ
was pretty anxious about the photo that even my hands were shaking. The 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDn5b9eyRD4
photo must be done downloading by now.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5MUDupNPh
Just as I unlocked the phone, it vibrated. Someone was calling me. Oh no! What now?1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXHtv6vNPTE
Seungri was calling. What could he probably want to talk to me about this early in the morning?1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSH4wEQJNBu
"Hello, Seungri?" I answered.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQsTQKSpJN
"Morning, my panda," said Seungri.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpzhH2rhcBH
"Morning. How was your night?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5qxV8yTmp1
"My night was perfect, since I dreamt of you."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡabVUzq91rV
If I was myself, I would have blushed by those words. But now, I was as confused as ever and I didn't know what to say next.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX2mX9As1vr
"Oh, wow," I said, trying to act a little surprised. I hope he bought it.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHEZfuCqwfE
"I've a little something I want to give you when you get to YG."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNUwjEEmMe
I smiled a little. At 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡitLBSS2XQy
least out of all that was going on, Seungri managed to make me smile, 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZ41VHddbW
which was quiet peculiar because he didn't say anything funny. I was 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Aqx8CxEgF
already imagining another huge stuffed panda waiting for me.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyIjnoDgqml
"Can't wait," I said with a little laugh. "See you."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsg8v3mkfsg
"You too."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDObQzJTu2o
He cut the line and I 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6LAsVYMOMV
threw my phone on the bed. I decided to dress up first and have my 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSPGmaXZltw
breakfast, before Zoey came back in the room and start to pressurise me 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡarOlCt71Rr
again. I had already pissed her enough this morning.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzco4J2hcI
After I dressed up and 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG3f4r4SRQJ
Zoey had left for breakfast, I went in the bathroom to get my hair done 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUKtOZIPMv
and applied a bit of makeup to hide my dark circles. When I was done, I 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDhl1CXzFj
went back in the room and without a thought of making my bed, which I 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRsUiO4YBP
always did, I wore my black pumps, grabbed my phone and went out of the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWpzEo6Xuiw
room.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡurikmOStsz
Just as I got into the lounge, I made a bee line to the dining table. Everyone was at the table eating their breakfast.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIVT0yfApp
"Someone isn't themselves this morning," said Collins as he watched me approach the dining table.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpdZKCcvJa
I knew he was talking about how late I was today. I was usually the earliest to be at the dining table.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxhEShZUmN
"Sorry," I said as sat down next to Lee. "I was pretty bummed up, that's why."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIOtn5jwRXG
"No pressure, just eat up, we have a lot of work to do today."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8lavku0roN
There was a variety of breakfast options today and I decided to take some cereal, which I haven't had in a while.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8cwViSFf9F
As I got the box of cereal and poured the contents in the bowl in front of me, I couldn't help feel all eyes were on me.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpjArQ8FkVo
I looked up and just as I had guessed it, all eyes were definitely on me. What had I done now? I put the box of cereal down.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBrZjws5rGX
I looked at everyone at the table and when they didn't say a word, I shrugged my shoulders.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQEUS6L2VU
"What?" I asked.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVNHJ7IKkLR
Mike who sat opposite me cleared his throat. "You're eating cereal."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9Mv22441R
I frowned. "So?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvoI8InuzQu
"But there is bacon and eggs with toast," said Daniel.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPiqKcTDfzU
I was still confused. "So?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡelUBy7dc66
"You usually don't eat cereal when there is bacon, eggs and toast," said Collins.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEypdROAC36
"And cereal is kind of like my thing," said Daniel.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpyinglzBmQ
I don't know if I just hit my head or I had now landed in Crazy Town. What was wrong with just having cereal for a change?1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡflLJ1jqBC2
"I don't see the harm in1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKpbcqPZxg
eating cereal. I have oatmeal whenever I feel like it and that's still 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOByLK3wE5X
cereal," I said. "I just wanted something different for a change. Is 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfIVyDbCbHQ
that wrong?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEdXVOkgRqe
Everyone else looked at each other and then they looked back at me, shaking their heads.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMcFakbCiE
"Thank you," I said as I got a jug of milk and poured into the bowl. "I haven't had sweet cereal in a while and I miss it."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwkUekQlQE
"I can see that," said 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16mocFgGMS
Zoey as she drank from her cup of coffee. I knew she was making fun of 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSBz7YoFTnQ
me but I decided not to say anything.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBUVsCMYuC
When we were done with 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8unGkTYD3X
breakfast, we headed downstairs in the lobby and the black SUV was 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKLAHMeC6IE
waiting for us as usual. When we got in, I made sure to take the back 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDOJxdWGCz
seat with my brothers next to the window so that I would avoid people 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsURNL15hr7
looking at my phone.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiNz6I0CK8Q
When everyone in the car1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp1Mo5NuwSe
was engrossed in some conversation that I had no interest in joining in1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jVb9DMKJt
or listening to, I decided to check my phone. The photo was done 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1Hy8cZAYf
downloading and what I saw made my mouth drop and my eyes pop.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiA4i9tgr1B
"What's wrong, Sam?" Mike who sat next to me asked.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCzR6kqFM4e
I quickly pressed the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQx8Y9Jkxt
power button on the side of the phone and blacked the screen. Mike was 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Lm38FnkdT
already leaning onto my side to see what was on my phone.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfEuZtuhx8
"Nothing, just some scary video," I said.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡizOMpq8mph
"May I see?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJT33bMwh8i
"No. You won't be sleeping for the next two days."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8FNKxmxcT3
"I've watched horror movies before. I can handle a little scare."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPQjugIRG5
"No can do, bro," I said as I put my phone into my purse that I had decided to carry with me.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfJGlTXyFT
Mike leaned back and folded his arms. "Whatever."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn81h4I4d21
I wish I could tell him 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPLabCOh30j
and everyone else what was going on. But at the moment, I felt like 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUciLa9cKm
keeping everything to myself, not after what I had seen.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxmolYNtCsr
Now that I had seen the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJqJcacbwdu
photo, I had to meet up with the stranger and talk about all this. But 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1OnBI9lA1U
where to meet the person and when was going to be a hustle. It was 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLaJeuoWZM8
pretty obvious that I had to meet him alone.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFNd4Jj2ACJ
Speaking of which, I 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAt6QP1VylZ
still had to convince G-Dragon about telling Zoey the truth. Now how was1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRqrc2wlHG4
I going to do that given the little time I had in my hands? We had a 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmRC0soPWv
music video to prepare for and we had to start working on the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4HxVCVmsd
choreography today. This was hectic. And I knew that if I was pushed 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwkp1Bp5VdB
further onto the edge, I would burst.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62D6EHEww2
Time seemed so short, given that I was thinking of ways to do things today. The next thing I knew, we had finally arrived at YG.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKwk355bNOS
My heart skipped a beat.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGRhjLzvxiv
I swallowed. This was it. G-Dragon was probably with the others waiting1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSPjpfG9QVs
for us inside. For a moment, I didn't want to go in. But I had no 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4iHb79nkp
choice.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjS8rABTs4y
As soon as I stepped out1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNp5LqfzeG
of the vehicle, I took a deep breath as I looked at the entrance. I 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbb4hgzikN
felt like I was about to walk into hell and that frightened me.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc2oBMx091B
"Are you okay, Sam?" Christine asked as she came to stand in front of me.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqAmFGnSwns
"I'm fine," I said. "I just realised that I haven't really thought of any ideas for the music video."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFwif5flVP
"You're aren't the only 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4bZOn0anW
one," Christine said with a smile. "Let's just hope our minds will get 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ22NhJKncC
to work on that when we get in there."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQWYzYVljd
I managed to put up a 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wVm21NNot
smile, but I knew my mind wasn't going to be on full throttle today. How1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNqvQKHaeYr
I wish this wasn't happening to me right now.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJewd9AoCVB
As I came into the lobby1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3aLdlCz7CU
with Christine, we found Collins talking to the receptionist. The rest 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2TyF3jruc1
were heading towards the elevator and we joined them.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUYco7LMo2
"You will be going up to the dance studio," Collins said as he turned to us. "The others are waiting for you there."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcStYNlLiF9
"Okay," the others responded. I for one felt really jumpy at the moment.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Kc9XwxZjP
We all got in the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAB4daMtDi
elevator and Mike was busy talking about some dance moves he had come up1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsDIR9GTN59
with and I wasn't really paying attention though I did get one or two 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3NGxsmo6l0
things.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCl9h0vn8Ne
We got to the dance 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0A5y6aRlCU
studio while Lee and Collins decided to go upstairs to meet with Yang 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0QeL5kxyg
Hyun-suk. We checked a few dance studios before we finally found them.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHepy0l0iMl
"Hey, guys!" Zoey greeted so enthusiastically as we came in the room.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWeHzO5V66A
I was too lost in 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB4XjnRAzdc
thought to even reply to the other's greetings until Seungri came up to 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡISjZA1W3FS
me and hugged me. That brought me right back down to earth.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrqt8nMNTcb
"Hey, what's wrong with you?" Seungri asked, still hugging me.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4BfFsgc9i
"I'm fine," I said, as I pulled myself away.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2YisrtxOc2
"If I know you well, you look pretty occupied in that head of yours," said TOP as he walked up to us.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxekmGx97xn
"Tell me about it," said1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIudLPLGuY0
Zoey as she was now on the floor with Daesung standing right beside her1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPiNcDnbyEO
and she was removing her shoes. "She's been weird all morning."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKDbI1W49ix
"How weird?" Taeyang asked.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHNTzDcj0m
"Too weird," said Daniel.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFCmEShp0JB
"Cut me some slack, guys," I said. I looked at Taeyang. "They are just saying nonsense."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2KqWWu7E5r
"Says the person who was so late to wake up today," said Zoey.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz51elmYsxP
"And ate sweet cereal for breakfast instead of bacon, eggs and toast," said Christine.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6cdYpLBUSk
"And refused to give me her phone to check out what she was watching," said Mike.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXHIUPW3EHj
I shrugged. "So? And Mike, seriously? Just over a phone?" I shook my head at my brother.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhAVt8BhOgt
"It's not like you, Sam," said Daniel. "That's all we are trying to say."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpOtYE0qQHp
I rubbed my forehead. "Look, guys, I'm just a little bummed out because of yesterday. Is that so wrong?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9yOXNIUHu
"No, I think something is bothering you," said Zoey, still on the floor.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoIDsAgHNSs
"I'm fine. Trust me. My mind is pretty tired."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkrPpf2h2h
"Come on, guys, let's not stress her out because of this," said Daesung. "If she says she is tired, then she is."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfpZSMIiktr
Zoey slapped Daesung's leg with her hand and Daesung looked down at her. "Don't try to defend her."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UeAO6FYzN
"I'm not."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlqLoytWz5
Zoey snickered at him and I knew why. She still remembered the little incident yesterday with Daesung and me.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ7h6G0XNlU
"Where is G-Dragon?" Daniel asked.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5spPq60fXk
I looked around the room and I noticed that GD was the only group member who wasn't here.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVKRB9z9p2X
"He went to get the choreographer," TOP answered.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM6kvobQN2l
"Now, Sam, about your little problem...." said Mike, turning to face me.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnsY8d3wIGq
"Not now, Mike," I said as I folded my arms. "You can attack me later, just not now."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqOVS6ksRvF
"Not to worry, my little kitty," said Seungri who stood right behind me. "Maybe this will cheer you up."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmuwRRHeDec
Before I could turn 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcbMbnA0Dhk
around to ask what he meant, I felt something settle at the top of my 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhBVh6VeNZ
head. My hand reached up for whatever it was.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYvf6mk1OSI
"A lovely crown for the lovely queen of k-pop," said Seungri.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSBiRJoXeg
I took the crown from 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnsK80yycvJ
the top of my head to look at it. It looked more like a tiara but it was1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDh4KvMhnJ
big enough to be called a crown. It was silver and studded around with 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOozu0QZn20
what looked like real diamonds. Perched in the middle surrounded by 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcPaW84XB8
diamonds was a sapphire stone in an oval shape.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu2zUJaJsuu
"Wait, are these real diamonds?" I asked as I turned to look at Seungri with a surprised look on my face.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYLPpNTJkm
"It is," said Seungri 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpVBlwbQRl
with a huge smile on his face. "And I know how much you value sapphire 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZndpMnu0LE
stones because it's your birth stone."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygn1RoaITP
"Aww! Thank you so much,1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzM7JgXpl9O
Seungri!" I gave him a hug and I couldn't stop smiling. Somehow, I knew1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ymsSxjOe3
he was going to brighten up my day today.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡucvcahAbAT
"So pretty, let me see," said Christine, as she came and took the crown from my hand. "Wow!"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZt5Y3ohSgS
"I want to wear it," 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI2GdFOC4B3
said Zoey as she got up from the floor and rushed to look at the crown. 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKWDFpmJkO
Christine put the crown on Zoey's head.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJFL6kFyBev
"Don't I look like a 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcX69go7r6s
true queen?" Zoey asked as she looked at her reflection through the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQIJRNJqgsJ
studio mirrors that lined up the walls of the room.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmp6PulqxGT
"You look like that evil witch in those fairy tale fantasy movies," said Mike.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡza62ZusQHq
"Haha, very funny," Zoey said as she turned to look at Mike.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3BnH25nxEo
"When did you even have the time to get it done, Seungri?" I asked, still a little surprised.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7md7nJTVk9
"I have my way of doing things just to impress you," said Seungri with a corky smile.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJm65LkJ7eS
"Thank you. You don't know how much you just made me smile."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZngkno7bGb
"It can clearly show on your face." Seungri softly pinched my cheek and I blushed.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYtudkqFjug
"I should get my own crown," said Christine who also wore the crown and was looking at herself in the mirror.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9uYLCdyD0
"May her royal majesty 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDL58MXbf3i
get her crown back?" Taeyang asked as he came behind Christine and took 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmcdtr2FkEF
the crown from her head. He came up to me and put the crown on my head.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC25fEPzlfw
"Oh, hail the queen!" Taeyang chanted and I broke into a laugh, playfully hitting him on the shoulder.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEbatbZeIXK
"Stop it, will you? You're making me blush," I said, trying to cover my laugh with my hand.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgnXdir5VmO
"You look just like a real queen, Sam," said TOP.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7qHAU6PNK
"Thanks." I was still blushing like crazy.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgkaG9t3Uzr
"Let me take a photo," said Daesung, pulling out his phone.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDGW2Yvw5x
"Ya. The whole world should see the queen of k-pop," said Zoey.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBSRYXSCKj2
"Are you really calling me that?" I asked.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdidTbDI1mu
"We did win last night, didn't we?" Zoey asked. "Of course I'm calling you that."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL60rL19joE
I rolled my eyes. "I wasn't really taking it that seriously. It was nothing but a game."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAZtOwojdnw
"A game we won. Cheer up. We are all kings and queens with you."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQJs8okuhI
I looked on at Zoey trying to smile as best as I could, but somehow I couldn't.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHWSR7sTI5n
She couldn't tell the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGzuasxSga
look on my face because she didn't even ask. Daesung went ahead and took1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0NjQt0vDY
pictures of me, and then we huddled together as a group to take a group1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYrsbtJpBy
photo with me in the middle.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF52Q4QR1GG
"Hey, what's going on here?" G-Dragon asked as he came in the room.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmPm6rm8nk
"Taking photos with the queen," said Daniel.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT8OyntllEU
"The queen?" G-Dragon looked confused until he saw the crown on top of my head. "Oh..."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡquR7SUFMQZ
"It's pretty, isn't it?" Zoey asked. "You should also get me one."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9WapLKeRY
"I can make a gold one if you want," said G-Dragon.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUJRKtYlkH
Zoey smiled. "Even better."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKp0nbdZVG
G-Dragon turned to 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9obRQlDpMl
Taeyang. "The choreographer is going to be here any moment now. So I 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbzyeejkKR
suggest we bring out your ideas if you have any. We can start without 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq3vI1iDXig
him and he will find us."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpyvKxmZsmq
"Mike told me over the phone earlier that he had some brand ideas," said Taeyang.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiNHscHHCwR
"Ya, I do," said Mike. "You guys just watch. I have the song in my phone so I'll play it from there."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHBIexwDxOI
We all stood on one side1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vCkFGjE5X
of the room while Mike took off his jacket and got his phone to search 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWy0edg9jC
for the track. He gave Daniel to hold the phone and when he positioned 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvw9aMff7U4
himself in the middle of the room and turned to look at us.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡInjjZRrMez
"So, I was thinking, 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7EQzWAX7Mp
since G-Dragon and Zoey start the first verse, they should open up the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXOLUSaJhvI
dance floor. So, I need someone to act as Zoey so that I could show you 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXiwhGoZo0i
guys."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjUqgen3Ut
Christine came forward 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3MaC9ng60
and Mike gave her a few instructions on what to do. She nodded her head 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDloZq2MNoD
and Mike told Daniel to press the play button on cue.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM55WCdoZFo
With Christine and Mike 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3lJCoCzjv
each facing opposite directions with their backs touching, the music 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHl9wUIR4ea
started to play. Still not looking at each other, the two started the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOwMiyV29a
dance with each of them taking a step forward, breaking the contact 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKW0ah17hN7
between them and then like a powerful force pulling them, they dragged 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTInDewgPM
themselves back and they again their backs touched.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMMg19TxAN
With a bit of skilful 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQjOG76fxr
footwork, they turned to face each other and with their hands, they drew1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0doUnJD1sn
closer and then skidded away from each other with their hands in the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVuW8zKYr2M
air.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9CwLD6XPn4
"Then you guys will come in through the middle then make a formation in front."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmvhLmdWk2x
"That's pretty awesome," said Taeyang.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3BuQx1NoXS
"Very smart," said G-Dragon.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs45nzoAG5q
"Let's practise that," said Zoey taking G-Dragon's hand and taking him in the middle of the dance floor.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2UnWiaqkM6
"I'll take you through the moves," said Mike as he faced them.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡonp9NDK0SP
"Your brother is a total genius, isn't he?" TOP asked as he stood next to me.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3R1DeEV8S
"Ya, he is," I said with a smile.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDoIQ1KiPqM
The door soon opened and1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHINrM50H9N
the person who I guessed was our choreographer walked in. We stopped 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUKqezHXl2A
what we were doing and bowed as he came further in the room.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡByoCHZFGzI
"So, I see you guys are already getting started," said the choreographer.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdFUTf8uiL
"Yes, we are," said Seungri.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlKPMv2MffO
"Okay, let me see what you have done so far."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡan1cr9SojF
Mike and Christine 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpljQTCHcyL
stepped forward and the music playing on Mikes phone, they did the dance1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnDdfdkJEYm
routine. After their hands broke apart, Mike explained how the rest of 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJJnMpQKaB
us will come in the scene.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkO3x2rfj0
"Mmmm," the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAtBIhTS6h8
choreographer looked on at Mike as he tapped his chin. For a moment I 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDytGUMK5P9
thought he was going to say something bad, but he didn't.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFaqqSokF83
"I like it," said the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUqvDT6jrb
choreographer. "So far, the starting part is brilliant. I wouldn't have 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTUOgcJYwJo
thought of anything better. Now let's see if Zoey and G-Dragon could 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYpgnDk4tHD
quickly work on their moves then we will come to the part when everyone 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9hOYtvQlG
comes in."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaZtxApr8sF
Zoey and G-Dragon took 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzKB86RG6Jl
to the center and with Mike telling and showing them what to do, they 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVwDvxTwVQ
did so accordingly. After a few tries, they got the hang of it and they 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbEuJAu6c9k
were perfect.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKjxLNXWaW
"Excellent," said the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zDmffwl1G
choreographer as he stood in front of us. "Now, when they break apart, 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68HurqDZQr
that's when the rest of you guys come in through the space in between 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ765jLynsmU
them like a doorway. We will come in a straight line and then make a 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXYjRWsZxx
formation in front of them."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMv7yL7Gv5l
We did as the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF05rt9Kp9O
choreographer said and the next hour, we were practising our hearts out 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpbmcA8Y7Uy
for the music video. We made a few mistakes here and there, but we got 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlAICtXisp
the hang of it.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYgxGlJ9qc
A few minutes later, 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSnweKuxden
most of us were splayed on the floor after the choreographer announced 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbOTbGoZvbF
that we can take a break with some of us with our backs on the floor and1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKiHYHC2glC
staring at the ceiling. Others were seated.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl534NlBiiC
"This is why I hate dancing," said TOP, laying opposite me staring at the ceiling.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfoJK7LoOd
I laughed, also staring 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQ1drGw8rW
at the ceiling. "I love dancing. It just makes you forget about all your1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0RWcSlqqJ
problems for a while. It's kind of like sleeping."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOzzNB0IAt
"Ya, true," said Christine who also had her back on the floor and laid a few feet away from me.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBc0Fuo8KE
Speaking of problems, I completely forgot about that French guy.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2GMg2al3c
I quickly scrambled up 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ526jJF4Hk7
from the floor passing Mike and Taeyang who were seated on the floor and1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWtXuRNW4KI
still talking about the dance moves. I went to the corner of the room 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpRWqVKh7ay
where we had piled up our shoes and phones and my crown. I got my purse 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjo19pax9Ly
and removed my phone.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GaqQu5biN
I sent a message to the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydHFvktW5Z
stranger telling him that I had already seen the photo. Thinking that he1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSkYR0gVym7
would reply later on, he repiled in an instant. That was fast. I 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfvTk3EGocW
imagined he had been waiting for me to either call or text.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vXdO2YPDf
"Good. We should meet."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Cj2Te5evK
Was this guy serious right now? I was really busy and meeting him didn't sound like a good idea. I texted back.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJev6Nx2Jvp
"I can't see you today. I'm kind of busy."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdmcxw3teG
"But this is a very important issue, Sam."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrefxqkc2v
Great. He was calling me by name now? How I wished I knew his.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVKNLeE5QYn
I texted, "what happens if I don't meet with you today?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBtFPg2p1qN
"You're one smart 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3n3FTpm8U3
girl. I don't have to explain because you know what will happen when the1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUffIvksjd
whole world sees this. It's today or never. And never comes with 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3yCyFU7oya
consequences."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEdfSXxEeB
I growled. This guy had put me in a tight corner and I couldn't refuse.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUDcfY4yd2z
"Fine. I'll tell you when to meet when I'm done."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrluuO4FMSf
"That's my girl."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwRl16ErZed
I wanted to throw up. I bet this guy was way older than me and him calling me his girl made me nauseous.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeWJYMRiyJy
As I tucked my phone 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRq6VSZsPr1
back into my purse, I looked up and everyone was still resting. Luckily 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSZuw1EWqZ
their eyes weren't on me. I went to lay back down with TOP when I 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJof0Ua0EO6
realised that Mike and Taeyang weren't the only ones engrossed in their 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ21Nsrp4sUw
own conversation. G-Dragon and Zoey were too.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLzC5cxqo3
I looked at them and unlike the others, they were whispering. I wondered what they were talking about in secret.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvraNnQkWG
When they both turned to1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCrV3DYYLpX
look at me, they quickly looked away again. My face turned pale. Oh, 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd7QCA2nXT8
no. Were they talking about me? Their look sent me weird vibes and I 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqjWmivEhO
couldn't help but feel that they were.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8ciMlu12E
I laid back down 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUavverAgk
pretending that all was alright. I stared up the ceiling as I thought. 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLb7ng3h1Jo
Could it be that Zoey was telling G-Dragon about the conversation the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbUm10aDIV
two of us had in our room this morning?1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1obBL6qD0s
Yikes! If she did, then I1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnR40X2f1ud
had just made a bigger mess for myself, again. If I'm right, (hoping 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7YSjYuPHzW
that I'm wrong) G-Dragon wouldn't like this at all. We agreed that he 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2rMYQmpoQ
would tell Zoey everything. And just a few hours ago, I had almost told 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Z38AR7bq3
her the whole truth. So much for trying to be honest.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSG8RoIiKQ
Still in my own thoughts, the door to the studio opened. Collins, Lee and Yang Hyun-suk came in.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQY44VGIpk
"I see you guys are bummed out," said Collins with a smirk on his face as he looked at each of us.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbGnWRHuCz
"Ya, we are," said Seungri, his back also on the floor.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTk0Mqjzpei
"Okay, guys, sit up, we have something to tell you," said Yang Hyun-suk.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgis4Rvacw9
Most of us who were on lying on the floor sat up and looked on intently at our managers and Lee.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66BNvhz562
"We came up with where we will be shooting the music video," said Yang Hyun-suk.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLIKS1YCMh1
"Where?" Christine and Daesung asked at the same time.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7e78svFHbG
"Caribbean Bay," answered Collins.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmiz52170ge
"Caribbean Bay?" I asked with my eyebrow raised.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0XsQCtsle
"It's not the only place we would be shooting the video," said Lee, tilting her head at me.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡstTJzUGGyC
"But it would be more likely that we would shoot it at Caribbean Bay?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6WRPqlm5dr
"That's right," said Yang Hyun-suk. "Do you think it's a bad idea?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWkYcoLB9J
"No. It sounds great."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQ9pPhKT7t
"Well, the song is based on fun," said Zoey. "And we did have fun there."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkOtpEtdZ4P
"Well, not for some of us who ended up playing cop," I said, replaying in my mind what a hectic time I had that day.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYD09X7LHhn
"Haha, that was fun," said Daniel, staring off into space with a smile.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43iBG1giJg
"So, you finish up the choreography today and then we can start shooting the video on Monday."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrffbqZTDOv
"But can't we meet tomorrow?" I asked. "You know, to perfect the dance and all?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0uI85yrD7L
"I don't think people will like to meet on a Sunday," said Collins.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkZZ8ZV9tQ
"True," said Taeyang.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHScNf9KwDc
"Okay," I said, feeling a1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwKAKwRFDNJ
little disappointed. That meant we had to finish up and perfect the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTc0ubiBjwf
dance routine today. And I don't know what time we will be done.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWO2r1f028
"Okay, we'll leave you guys," said Yang Hyun-suk.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTjVSCdcck
After the three had 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnGOhx3nHyZ
left, we went back to what we were doing, waiting for the choreographer 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryvIujfj7U
to show up because he was coming in with some backup dancers.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOjYkLwexlm
While we waited, 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCid2lNgubM
G-Dragon came over to me, his head hovered over my sight as I still laid1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNO74dx1AKI
down on the floor. I looked up at this face and couldn't make up the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzjl6y1B2rk
expression on his face.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHkMFHfcMii
"Sam, we need to talk," he said, as he looked down on me.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Y4Qbl1ROv
He sounded serious and I1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG6fk1lqA08
couldn't say no. I tried not to show that I was scared but I could feel1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaLtiC0s6fO
my body tremble. All I did was nod my head.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVRJGZa4bdQ
"Let's talk outside," he said and he went ahead of me out of the room.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8RyFH3cNpO
I got up from the floor 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGebCD0PF5F
and I realised that everyone was looking at me now, obviously wondering 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHiPzRePXBd
what was going on. I ignored them and none of them asked anything as I 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwILFNoHXkM
stood up from the floor and walked out of the room.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88FFmC5acF
I found G-Dragon three 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYoTUUKtVn2
doors down the hall, obviously trying to avoid anyone from listening to 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZMXkO2He5B
our conversation. I quickly walked up to him with his back facing me. I 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsu56tkq60j
stopped a few feet away from him taking extra precaution not to be too 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUagpCb5Ccq
close.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv66I4cpr4o
"I'm here. What do you want to talk about?" I asked.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNvbwkGlAi
G-Dragon turned to look at me and I could see he was upset. It was good that I wasn't that close to him in the first place.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSp12gftwVs
"It's about Zoey," he said.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkzibVGMwo
I gulped. "Zoey must have told you what happened this morning, didn't she?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqC3hnezgK4
"She did," he said as he nodded his head. "What's up with you lately? Didn't we agree that I would tell her everything?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTtdKAMMTNg
"Sorry, I just.... I couldn't keep lying anymore."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUubeaENk6
"Really? That's all you can say?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimL3slr0qs
"Well, it's the truth. And besides, I never told her that you liked me, because I couldn't bring myself to."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikNY8CfjZJ
"But you almost had."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡID7nj2fcnC
"Yet I couldn't."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbqZrdWFNAp
"Zoey is right. You're 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡffZSWnsJST
been acting really weird today. Weird enough to tell her the truth when 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjWazotKpp
you know I was supposed to do it."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPGaVEUfSW
"Well, you were taking too much time and I couldn't help myself seeing the way how angry you were yesterday and now."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBInLg3rQmr
"And so telling the truth would help solve my anger issue? Or are you jealous of Zoey because she is happy with me?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMytrrVInHE
I paused before I could say, "what?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnTm5y0CMn9
"You heard me loud and 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7rSYJBCfrW
clear, Sam. As though kissing Daesung wasn't enough, you're now trying 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡesWRaoDOlg
to take matters into your own hands."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7lqUArzBkW
Oh no. He knew Daesung and I kissed. I wonder how he found out because I didn't tell anyone about it. Not even Zoey.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDmLryeYaq
"Wait, that's not true," I said.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnfpAbzKLDD
"Which one? You kissing Daesung or taking matters into your hands?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVfq0uB2H1D
I now realised that I 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQ1zrrAy2l
was stuck. This time I couldn't tell if he was sure that I had kissed 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWK8MULRpNR
Daesung or he was trying to test me to see what I would say to prove his1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHSa6D4cD6
assumption right. But there was no point in hiding now. The truth was 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgnWWOzokNq
bound to come up sooner rather than later.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSaBq3XWB93
"Aren't you going to answer? Which one of the two?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMOhqbgg5q
I sighed. "You're being ridiculous, GD."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4Te15ljBx
"But I'm not and you know it." He took a step closer. "Now answer the question. Which one?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ71V4BoPkF
"If you want to hear it, then fine. I did kiss Daesung but it's not what you think."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHd8IArrS7w
G-Dragon took a step 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ75V4GocpWk
back. "I knew it. You tell me you want nothing to do with me and then 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFCyPUuuNK
you kiss my best friend who is like a brother to me!"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjD5QtI0PjM
"You wanted the truth, didn't you? You got one! But backstabbing you wasn't what happened."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCaZhMUZWgZ
"Then what did happen?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNWiypKJSb
"All of this is nothing 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJKIwiBg8C
but a misunderstanding. I never went back on my word. Things just 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeePLeHKj2g
happened that I myself couldn't control."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡINAjFPP7jY
"Don't lie to me, Sam."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEpO3iTfKP
"You know what, I'm 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3oPkSggZvy
trying my best here to try and tell you the truth but you're acting like1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTxOZv3qMY
a deaf person blocking my words out. I knew from the very beginning 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmiqdyz7lbY
that I could never be with you nor with Daesung and I have accepted it. I1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEk5a2HER35
talked about that with him yesterday. That's why he kissed me."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4JnvomXKi
G-Dragon shook his head. "So you're saying that he kissed you and not that you kissed him?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFIZcb6LYmj
"Yes. But I know you 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdX0E1QHePX
won't believe me. Unlike you, at least Daesung realised and accepted it 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9IqQT8cqBK
for himself that he and I could never be together."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsiF1VfplWH
I looked at G-Dragon and I knew I hit the spot. I just hope that what I said would make him understand.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2OADkHbhx2
"The sooner you accept all this, the better it would be for all of us," I said.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwFb4CRSpq
I turned around to head 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡogv9d2i8ka
back for the studio. As I walked away, I realised that I wasn't upset or1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdTLT72LRRq
angry. I was frustrated and my problems were far from over.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwCENWR9hfK
When I came back in the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8PnqYqLfm
studio, all eyes were on me as soon as I walked in. I could tell on 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwZz55vD73
their faces that they had heard the entire conversation.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡph6A6tZwIY
"Sam, are you okay?" Taeyang asked.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdutw8gKvkU
I didn't want to beat around the brush. "No. I'm not."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xIA8wezur
I came in further into the room and sat down on the floor, not looking at the others.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMlNo3v7Zx9
"You and G-Dragon were arguing," said Zoey as she came to sit down beside me. "Would like to talk about it?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGcqF6N8Pi
I looked at Zoey. "I'm certainly not the one to tell you what's going on."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡokyflevbLN
I went back to looking at the floor. My chin rested on my knees and I hugged myself, lost in thought.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rWmk4gEa6
I heard the door open 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ53tyXkwlfs
behind me and I knew G-Dragon had come into the room. At the corner of 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHTdnuTbs3
my eye, I could see Zoey turn towards the door.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbr5MGbdDZa
"Care to explain to us what's going on?" Mike asked G-Dragon. "You two argued and we could hear you guys down the hall."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWzrL54dxk8
"It's nothing," I heard G-Dragon say.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPV5DCzcsLi
"It's nothing? Looking at both of your faces, something did happen," said TOP.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlviKUOdufB
"Look guys," I said as 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdY3194MTS
quickly stood up from the floor and turned to face them. "Tell me if I'm1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRdIFdZDul2
wrong, but you guys heard the entire conversation, right?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5g5C94OTSu
No one said anything and they had guilty looks on their faces. That settled it.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVV5ZcurLy
"I'm sorry you had to hear all that," I said as I scratched my head. "We shouldn't have been so loud."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyPTRCqNkui
"Why didn't you two tell us all this before?" Seungri asked.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzRZmf1ajx
I didn't say anything 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5aBjFKvBUH
and neither did G-Dragon. We looked at each other and then at the others1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1iJiykMwr
who were waiting for either of us to say something.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5QQMJe5gai
Before anyone could 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkGDVMregcM
break the silence, the door to the studio opened and the choreographer 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9F8rdpyBzR
came in with some backup dancers and pretending like nothing happened, 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA69oNDTWFm
we went back to practising.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ10hZGbrj6L
I don't know how I 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5sRq4FmHdH
managed to go through the entire dance session without making a mistake.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLTNGD16LS
Not after what happened some minutes ago. Now that everyone knows 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOUCjIvQCO
what's been going on between G-Dragon and I, it was supposed to affect 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD21sJxHCze
me in some way but it didn't. I felt bad, but right now I had to keep my1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7CI7CAmSM9
head in the real world and not mess things up.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSRjRaBUxH
It was lunch time and 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlduonbcXIz
again we took a break. We were almost done with the dance routine but I 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh8OxXMP1wP
was so tired, I wondered if I would be able to meet up with the unknown 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdXYaFLn3p1
stranger.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8u2BpqiMjL
Now that we were on a 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlEiTe63hq
break, no one said anything to each other even after the choreographer 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDAbu1XoXpa
left with the backup dancers. As much as I would have loved to say 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7spDBQJCS
something to the others concerning the argument, I couldn't. It was just1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVfsrZR2VAC
too awkward for me.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ44GPctOgS
Zoey cleared her throat first. "Mmmm, so are we going to talk about this or are we going to have lunch?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ96bz8FBHdq
I looked at Zoey. "You and G-Dragon have a lot to talk about." I then turned to face G-Dragon.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyd2RWFKCR5
"Sam's right, Zoey," said G-Dragon.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiy9hkCHjW9
Zoey looked a little downcast as though she knew to expect the worst.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzWg8D4vZTC
"Well, you guys can talk if you want," said Seungri, "but I'm hungry."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7iz67mR9Yz
"Ya, me too," said Daniel.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jL3mnYxdR
"We can order a pizza," said Christine.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55GzVk7wjQ
"Good idea," said Taeyang.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHfRSQu1g8j
As though they couldn't 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgwoJRuQ0k
stay in the room any longer, the others walked out, leaving Zoey, 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0fdp2khff
G-Dragon and I in the room. I couldn't blame them. There was too much 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9mKcqqsm2y
tension going on and I couldn't help to think it was entirely my fault.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJGnRVgT9e
A few seconds later, 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07UF8PC9Lo
when I knew that the others had gone, I also left the room with my purse1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGO935xvBsW
and crown without saying a word. Zoey and G-Dragon had a lot of talking1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBRrH0XIfA
to do and I would come back for that later. And while the others had 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzYnuG6vHw
plans for lunch, I had other plans of my own.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfcDS1bjGy
As I walked down the empty hall, I called Lee and she picked up immediately.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMWxRgM2Dz
"Hey, Sam, why are you calling?" Lee asked.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpL9N60gUm3
"A lot has happened 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpOF8RwBppm
today that I need to tell you, Lee," I said, keeping my voice down in 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8cYpqpgdlc
case there were any people snooping around.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHK4dbYNuv
"What? What's happened?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGHd0QTaf8
"Everyone now knows the truth about G-Dragon and I. They heard us arguing."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9k7k8mcOv3
I could hear Lee gasp and I pictured her ready to drop and faint. "For real? Oh, gosh, this is bad."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtyKFQBi4F9
"That's not the worst 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3HgJx4NTfY
part," I said as I found myself at the end of the hall going down a 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaCmOHt0eoj
flight of stairs. "A weird guy called me today and I need to meet him."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsTP1SFMadY
"Huh? What for? Who is this guy?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78V5u8M2X3
"Like I said, he is 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7VszF0aJ6O
weird. Something bad came up and if I don't meet him soon, a lot of us 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHxwLvJIXtt
are going to be toast especially with the press."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtUDhrlEVbF
"Is he blackmailing you or something?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEbdOgSDJ3d
"I'm not sure if I can 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeSiOhUo3i9
call it that. But if I'm affected too, then it kind of looks that way. 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtXD5xxora
Do me a favour and meet me at the back of the building."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIkh8agKOit
Lee paused. "Why? You aren't going to meet him, are you?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUjrNWp6Ni
"I've no choice and I 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgpDysaxvg
would better do it now because we are going to be here for a while until1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjZOglRLunN
we are done with the dance routine. Bring me a pair of sunglasses, a 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8cheDTIUG
cap and a scarf."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7Gypxq6AW
"What will you need that for?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkVpowfCVw
"Trust me," I said as stopped on the stairs. I wasn't too sure which floor I was on at the moment.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4GY7pF0mun
"Okay, fine. I'll see where I can get those."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUHjNwTHgt
"Thanks, Lee. Don't tell anyone."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmzdL5KwwfF
I cut the call and this 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWxVFJcJZT
time, I ran down the stairs with a new found energy. I was tired from 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI8z0srdXRF
all the dancing but I had some reasonable ounce of energy left in me.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOASyGuWpYU
I reached the bottom of 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmmhS5JmOza
the steps. I had reached the ground floor. There was a passage behind 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWvOeSgVmty
the stairs which lead to a door. The back door, I presume. And in front 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡudUKkTsJDa
of me was a short passage which lead to the lobby. I could hear a few 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2sGHkYqyKq
voices that I could recognise.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS6KtqN8gLu
I went over to look, 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqXD1lcp9G2
making sure I had my back against the wall. I took a peek and I saw The 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRTAoYb1SYF
Toxins and BigBang in the lobby heading out. They were going out for 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVpBuQEcae
lunch instead of ordering it from here. Before I could turn around and 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡclo2k33n9N
head for the back door, I ended up hearing their conversation.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1WieS3B15
"I wish Sam could have told me what was going on," said Christine.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMRrqPrXdh
"How could we have known?" Daesung asked. "Sam and I just talked about it yesterday, but she never mentioned G-Dragon."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8rhVRMOeOX
"I'm just surprised that1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCCZQJA3yzh
you kissed my sister," said Mike. For some reason, I was surprised that1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBuweAXSgP4
he wasn't upset like I thought he would.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIw0mwEwQQU
"Well, whatever she did that for," said Taeyang, "she will tell us eventually."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVxEv6xzzc
"Should we go back for her and see if she would come with us for lunch?" TOP asked.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡarMHVT2p7J
"No, I bet she wants to be alone for a while," said Seungri.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0INzZYYA9
"I think so too," said 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY6TVI4lCcl
Daniel. "But just in case, we would order her and the others a takeout. 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2mozarn5KJ
Sometimes Sam would starve herself without even realising it."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdOFZpVrhk
The next thing I knew, their voices became distant. I peeked again and I saw that they had already walked out of the lobby.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3I3nu7ECg
I was expecting them to 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSDSlRsi7T
be mad and all, but they didn't seem like they were. Maybe they were 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSqesL8FQXY
just hiding it and they would throw all of their anger on me later on. 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0NBQte7ELA
Who knows?1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgkbKWNXzYO
Throwing that thought 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAtYx7MXnwu
out of my head, I quickly went back down the hall, heading for the back 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpYpopH3JQ
door. I hope it wasn't locked. I swung the door and it opened. Lucky me.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ97FT9EQ9Dq
Now I had to wait for Lee to show up.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG5Cf4r9hL6
There were still more 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY4rOscRJQM
vehicles parked at the back of the building. Some of which were delivery1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpWdRubljcY
trucks. I waited for Lee on the slab with my back leaning against the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNXWJdek0TB
wall. I could hear the sound of the vehicle's engine coming from the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg71CHReaNw
front and I knew the others were leaving until I heard the noise fade 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSvOt8pxeFo
away.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbTAl0MPmTU
In what seemed like 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOgqIZwMp5l
forever, Lee appeared around the corner of the building with her 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0imxZkahJB
handbag. When she spotted me, she quickened her steps.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VpoR5EOb2
"It's about time," I said with my arms folded.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOja70aA5O6
"Don't act all grumpy on me," said Lee. "So as to let you know, finding what you wanted wasn't all that easy."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwsVTtbf4r
"Okay, thanks," I said as Lee gave me her bag and I gave her my crown and purse to hold. "Hold this."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEGWTPXzUiD
"Oh, wow!" Lee marvelled as she looked at my crown. "Who gave this to you?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡchpJ1iX9SQ
"Seungri," I answered as I rummaged through the bag to get the items out.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa2uJEDI057
"This is so pretty. These diamonds look so real."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXxusofJtee
"They are," I said as I put the blue baseball cap on.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4td2KwiX8Z
"So sweet of him to do this," said Lee. She looked at me. "Are they all still inside?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzxVJt98Pbh
"They have gone out for 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVB5MEuDpJH
lunch. But Zoey and G-Dragon are talking in the studio. Hopefully things1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLG876Rs3lp
will work out okay. Though I highly doubt it will."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmhUpug6ou
"Things are really bad, huh?" Lee asked with a sad expression on her face.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcbzsiYNS7d
"Ya. And they are about 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4QNmnkx4w3
to get a whole lot worse. Wish me luck." I put on the sunglasses and the1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHI58m3qHBb
light scarf around my neck. Lee gave me back my purse.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzXXU27w1l
"Okay. Tell me how everything goes," said Lee. "Want me to escort you out of the gate?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqr5pjSwkdo
"Ya, that will be a good1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ75KdVKpWhh
idea," I said. "Leaving me alone would be dangerous and who knows what 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkpKR9dQ5Yh
the guards might think when they see me."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsb4XUFWavU
Lee and I started to 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdq266zEjJ
walk and we turned around the corner finding ourselves back at the front1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9BpEJTti48
parking lot. As we were heading towards the gate, Lee started some 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADmtB0RINm
random conversation and I played along making sure not to look 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6sG5DxuwF
suspicious in front of the guards who didn't seem to be paying much 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxnk8cFmKX
attention. I made sure that they didn't notice my face.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFU4hSJHDzB
When I finally managed 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaII7i20Eja
to get out of the gate, Lee wished me luck. I nodded my head and walked 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTryxiqmqNe
away from the YG gate and down the street.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡInE8puWXzw
I had to admit, I was so1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4pEZtkAXdE
scared. For one reason, I had no idea where I was going since I hadn't 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4cXUMmqdGx
fully known the place and this was the first time I had to walk around 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1oRBzjnvFA
in the streets by myself. Going around alone was too dangerous for me 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4HQe3j7w0x
and I was crazy to think I would manage on my own.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrNkK4KX6RL
After walking a few 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgNsEGpAqo
blocks away from YG, I reached the crosswords and I stopped at the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwgbe0gdvXg
traffic walking sign. I looked around and so far, no one had recognised 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnOYcHIeSeB
me under my little disguise. When the robot indicated 'walk' I crossed 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnYulVcwj0
the road with a few people and got to the other side of the street.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQb2LZxU8Cj
As I walked, passing a shoe shop, I took my phone out from my purse and called the unknown man.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyyaNshbe2O
"Ah, you finally called," said the stranger who had answered after the first ring. "I've been waiting."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3mtbNREvOL
"Ya, I figured," I said, looking around hoping that no one noticed me but the cap hid my face1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIrpiP4CEn9
pretty well. "I've no idea where to meet you and I'm not so familiar with the place."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGFRsi0uQhk
"Not to worry, dear. I already see you. Nice disguise by the way. I can hardly tell it is you under that baseball cap."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaT8qxKDGph
I froze as I soon looked1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOgZM0rNNj
left and right and across the street hoping to see him. But I couldn't 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6oPhcl2LgY
spot out any French native among the midst of Koreans. Feeling a little 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHdD2JQwn1
out of place, I figured I might just be the odd one around here too.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4bjxK992P
I heard him laugh 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhnWPC5znGa
through the phone and I could tell he was making fun of me. "Not to 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSYjiA4DLvX
worry, Sam. Be careful or you might just blow your cover."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu2oL33zSP3
I gritted my teeth. "Just show yourself. Where are you?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlFRjRVz9r
"I'm right here."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9FaH7VICMo
"Right where?" I looked around and still nothing. People walked past me and I got frustrated. "Don't try play games with-"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpTKSnRqzJS
My sentence was cut 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxU14G8KWMf
short when down the road, a fancy black shiny Bugatti parked at the edge1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtw0hQOXhi
of the concrete slab right in front of me. I looked on with my mouth 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSBRnWShdaX
agape. I have always admired fancy cars but this was one hell of a ride.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoasPb42pst
A smartly dressed 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDWS98RG9Kh
looking chauffeur came out of the driver's seat and came to my side. 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMs1B88SQp6
With his white gloved hand, he opened the door to the passenger's seat.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡME9PVx8YPM
"You may go in, mademoiselle," said the driver in deep French accent, as he bowed.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0g2np49e2v
At first I was dumbfounded and I didn't know whether to run and head back to YG, or just go in and get this over with.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNnxgCGwah9
A few heads turned my 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8CKk4kOUV
way and I could only imagine what people must think of a Bugatti and a 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTECN4x9cE
smartly dressed chauffeur waiting for me to go in. Strange, I suppose 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrGVtOgOQfA
and a little suspicious too.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJdy3dCjUK1
I managed to awake from 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBYN1XjTLJw
my slumber and got in the car before people fully start to look at me 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhEHe4sK5To
and figure out who I was. As I got in, a nice car smell wafted in the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovuf81c1jH
air and into my nostrils. The chauffeur closed the door and went to the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQTju24NCl
driver's seat.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡel5Ffp3Pxr
"Samantha Glasson, nice to finally meet you at last," came a deep voice.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAh73lcY4MN
With my eyes, I looked 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2RAYfZnkU
at the person sitting right beside me in the passenger's seat. For a 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDkuiQDfbQ
moment, I was scared. But when I looked at the man fully, my face fell.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLmcWaZUnP1
He looked to be in the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs81GSGkjbq
same age group as me but maybe two years older. I guessed in my head 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2Z23OiC1A
that he must be 24 or 25. He had gorgeous blue eyes like the colour of 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66uZaiEyKa
the sea and brown short curly hair. His dashing lips were lifted up into1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkUp9AIgjeR
a smile and under that navy blue suit of his, I could tell he was one 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQk1KYn1WS
who had one heck of a body.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcwRGpf2v24
I hadn't said a word and1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNJFBjvVVL
the car started to drive down the road when the young man offered his 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFE0Xd8Hey1
open hand. I stared at it and noticed a shiny gold Rolex on his left 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXChvupMo8O
wrist. Who was this guy?1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8FzG7By8KQ
"Aren't we going to shake hands?" he asked.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8am3Zb6aC
I opened my mouth but 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNJgUj2473
then closed it again knowing that it was pointless to argue. I took his 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLC3Kpx0AQ
hand and shook it, scared that I might receive a shocking zap from the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvMUbMFfJFL
contact.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryWu74CNv3
"And you must be the guy I was talking to over the phone?" I asked.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJueudpmfcO
"Yes, a pleasure to meet1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQzsZIdy6H
your acquaintance." He lightly pressed his lips on the back of my palm 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBDktU90cs
and I blushed as I slowly withdrew my hand.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡscPGxZ095p
"I'm sorry we had to 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZrnrSwPmMI
meet under such awkward circumstances," he said as he leaned back in the1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0sT7QXikfy
fancy leathered seats. "But I needed to talk to you, and fast."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBo9po3vbOz
I looked at him and 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ61Ib8sgH9V
realised that all his was just too surreal. This wasn't what I was 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxcVV9VxQ4B
expecting. I was expecting a man much older than me and rafia looking. 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQckJnqk7x
This guy right beside me looked like one of those handsome Greek gods we1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpvyv6QCq8
hear about in mythical tales.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK7YEGmo5ZD
"Why are you looking at me like that?" he asked with the corner of his lips raised up to a smile.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMbEYB3zpT0
"I...uh." Yikes! I was 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUA01C9YG33
caught looking at him. I blushed and turned to face the window beside 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hqlrIx0Dh
me. "Nothing. This wasn't what I was expecting."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdoEPBod1KS
There was silence and I 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvyhq7mrSgy
didn't want to look at him. He was obviously looking at me and that made1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPggxSJjDBm
me play around with my fingers because I was nervous. Then I realised 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡERSjW6w6Dc
something.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Rvn8IobLr
"You never told me your name," I said as I looked at him. Dang it! I wasn't supposed to look at him.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWblgIRFoHd
"Oh, silly me. Where are my manners? I'm Derrick."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29MuekVJIF
"That's a weird name, given that you're French."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0b7YWn5Bu9
"I was born in the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7yawhOHvdq
States and my parents preferred giving me this name even though they are1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsgpSBslQF9
both French. I grew up in France almost my whole life and my parents 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ162ujRw4sZ
are people who like to travel a lot for business. Building their 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrb9lInzFEj
business empire is what's so important to them."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWYq6RIALNp
"I can clearly see that," I said as I wondrously looked around in the car.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjTpolZd2xO
My expression might have amused him because he chuckled. I blushed as I pushed my glasses further up my nose and folded my arms.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSYeOOZ1KvL
"This is going to be fun," he said to himself.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfo4g3zRhVy
I changed the topic. "About the photo, why did you want to see me?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqjU2MJJknM
"Can we talk about this over lunch?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdZpcRDYqM
"Lunch?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLVg3bZpNX
"Yes, lunch."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOfBp57ebD
A moment ago, I wasn't in the mood for lunch. But now that he mentioned it, I was starving.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBRj4Z9MpIP
"Lunch sounds good. But not in the open. I don't want to grab any attention."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAOpdDQBx4u
"Of course. I figured you would want that. Given that no one knows where you are anyway."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBYlNMjjhKV
I raised an eyebrow at 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtLMAU8xW0c
him. "You've been following me the whole time, haven't you? That's how 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6CFGhtRBH7
you have been able to find me on the street."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Z7fX2ItL7
He gave me that dashing 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWAHIT5phg
smile of his. "Of course. I just had to. I knew sooner or later that we 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5b6vyvMGlN
would meet. I had to come prepared."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2eNxJ5hh5C
"That's sounds creepy if you ask me," I said as looked out the window. "So, where are we going?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNkyDxTbl6
"My apartment. It's much safer there."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4AzHpt4H8z
"You own an apartment?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0LFHWiWv3T
"Like I said, my parents travel around for world and South Korea, is one of their favourite spots."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkwuWfOP4z2
"So, it's their apartment then and not yours."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMn2fIzTMrn
"They have their own apartment and I have mine."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqkLPvGEQx9
"Oh." I couldn't help but feel embarrassed.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2xwQi0gVUv
"Here we are now," said Derrick as he looked out of the car window on his side and followed suit.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3ljIjEtRg
It was a huge apartment 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5iNOGNFDNa
building kind of like the ones famous people live in. The car took a 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5PwpsLvhvl
turn and went down the road to an underground parking lot.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGhqyc04NJ
After the car parked, 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bxIl6p1re
the chauffeur quickly came out and opened the car door on Derrick's 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmeqk9cFMfi
side. Derrick came out and I followed. Before I could step out of the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1kxNBOQ2vj
car, Derrick held out his hand to help me out. I took his hand and I 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFDEXsMbwq
came out of the car.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvsIJes09p
Derrick lead the way, 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7zVV2kS6U
still holding my hand, to the elevator and the chauffeur stayed behind 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjfypgiYbW
with the car as he watched us go. I couldn't help but feel that the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFzVyP2vLDE
chauffeur had been smiling at us from the time we got out of the car.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHx0RyccCJn
Derrick pressed the elevator button and when they drew open, we stepped in at the same time.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJs7tXyLPJ
When the door closed, I withdrew my hand from his. He pressed the button to his floor and I felt the elevator move.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhPwCnmaxk3
"So, about that photo, I need to know what's going on," I said as stared at the floor.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvA6rZceE3j
"What do you want to know?" Derrick asked. I could feel his eyes on me.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvKbEpUguxU
"Everything," I said as I looked at him. "But one thing I don't get is why you're involving me in all this."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW9ugJAmB5W
"But don't you want to know what's going on?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm067XGUSlJ
"Well, ya, I do! You're 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vTsPQOftB
the one who sent me the photo so I'm curious. Do you know what? It was 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2baFEOzFnN
best you didn't send it to me in the first place."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyvGKtAzP5o
"Why?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgUGrZIgmDj
"Maybe then I wouldn't be here."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡarBFWV3Sn8
The elevator doors flew 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM0CvvdrWgA
open and in front of me was a lavishly looking hall. The white painted 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3qCT7ieHJ
hall and the bright lighting above made the hall look angelic that if 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG5PCSEssqi
you were to see it for yourself, you would think you had just stepped 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7lhZ75VEXy
into heaven.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkbLIfDRn5
I stepped out of the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLCVPN8LvIU
elevator and beautiful paintings lined up the walls. I noticed that the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh8QozRymLB
doors leading to other people's apartments were white doors with fancy 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLltZ2vqFvL
looking gold plated handles. The floor of the hall was covered with a 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqSRNivHmpE
soft red carpet.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUK60qecFZ0
"This place looks nice," I said as I walked down the hall.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrrmjmWvva6
"I know," said Derrick as he came up behind me. "My apartment is the door at the end of the hall."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvdFTgESVb
I looked down the hall 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeW0YnY98n9
and there stood two huge white doors. I walked up to it and just as I 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1SYSO3Fn1
was about to turn and look at Derrick, the right door flew open and in 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYxFEO2XMf
front of me stood a smartly dressed butler. It's like he knew I was 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd0F2htujGo
coming.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmcxRSVR9Z
"Welcome, mademoiselle," said the butler as he stepped aside and and with his hand, he gestured to come in.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWhHhPsnEC
For a moment, I hesitated. Until I felt Derrick behind me.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXW9b7y3D6L
"Ladies first," said Derrick.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHFKg3BsnF
I gulped and took a step into his apartment.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ikiHGyRet
"This place is very 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLldRtiURl
nice," I said when I looked around the foyer and I when turned round the1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNg2RlPugXP
corner, there was lavishly looking sitting room with creamed coloured 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtcPZ7xVcs
sofas with a glass coffee table and I huge smart screen TV pinned on the1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGTFzKB2ok
wall.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYSQku1oML5
I looked to the other 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXY9GcGsXG4
side and there was a fancy looking table with a beautuful chandelier 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbfKr03vye
above it. Beautiful artistic pictures filled the place and there were 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4vVbwSyFD
beautiful flower vases with orchids.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJuKUxJKsdb
"I see you like 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMJrbld0AN
orchids," I said as I went over to the flower vase close to the sitting 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXnjCSJ1oR
area and looked at the orchids. They were fresh and lovely.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOyT6PdYTq5
"I know you like roses," said Derrick as he stared at me.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvru3xPW4Xr
"Almost everything that celebrities like and don't like are always found on the internet." I rolled my eyes at him.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFU9gTMWk7
"True, but I can tell what a woman likes and doesn't."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYy0j7xqDmZ
I gave him a smile that showed how impressed I was.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ111iVgcVlD
"Lunch is ready, sir," said the butler. "Should I serve the food?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfLUu5XhWh
"Yes, please," sad Derrick.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrV92mYHD4r
The butler bowed and 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtAWp4TEqHx
left for the kitchen. I continued to look around and I went over by the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQ5jEhUhGu
windows to look down at the city below. We were so high above the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3z9SNb1uBk
ground.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8w1DfCvOP
"Is it just me or are we on the last floor of this building?" I asked.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYRssmzI0p
"We are," said Derrick who came to join me by the window. "This place is lovely, isn't it?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgnevnwNzAo
"Ya, it surly is." I knew he meant Seoul.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZirgQ5MLIT
"Food is ready, Master Derrick," came the butler behind us.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFCPMHbrv1y
"Shall we?" Derrick gestured his hand towards the dining table and I walked up to it with him following behind me.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWc4xlz5xYM
As we got to the dining 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSFHQ0scsvC
table, Derrick pushed back a chair for me and I took my seat, removing 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmigSGeDrPq
my glasses and cap putting the glasses in my purse. I said thank you and1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWAE6NQ3oX
he sat at the head of the table right next to mine.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8AUvfWRgfZ
The butler had served 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDgIsyslDZ6
our plates on the table and just by looking at the cutlery and napkins 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE6pztuF3P8
laid and folded neatly I couldn't help but feel I was in some kind of 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyJhsViijr
fancy fairytale. The table was set to perfection and the wine glasses 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6mBAYTEx6
next to the plates were spotless.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwSNzBDhWth
Dishes of food were 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2V4RjxhldZ
lined in the middle of the table and my mouth couldn't help but water. 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwmAhBb78OD
If I wasn't in such an elegant apartment, I would have just dug in and 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWModQO5pIq
started to eat. I was really hungry. But for now, I had to act like a 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsooE5ItA2R
lady.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMbA38JFsAS
The butler helped to 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNnYWMXJV3
serve the food and I didn't hesitate eating right there and then. I made1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRBVZfoK30o
sure not to eat too much and take my time.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSd1sw23txR
"This was really good," I said, after I was done with my food.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡppLS3Jiwa5
"France's finest traditional dishes," said Derrick with a smile.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOTJqQlbkLH
"Now, about the issue at1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6tfcphSA8u
hand," I said, wiping the corner of my mouth with a napkin as the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnEULLwfsuY
butler came to take away my plate and also Derrick's.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVYZaKVJA05
"Let's talk then," said Derrick.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyeKcAN8a41
"First of all, I need to know why you sent it to me."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0y1WYGdkfE
"Because as much as you don't want to get involved, it concerns you more than you can ever imagine."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7PIXGini5K
I shook my head as I got my purse and removed my phone. I went to the gallery and checked out the photo.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1snjnQLWUl
"How does this have to do with me?" I asked as I showed him the photo.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTONe2NUgXA
The photo showed Zoey in1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcE7YHcnmBp
a some place that looked like a garden or a park and in front of her 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmnq9FpTUZ
stood a man I couldn't recognise. His face was hidden because his back 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRn1awiV9qc
faced the camera and whoever had taken the photo, took it behind some 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqcgOsWLoTM
bushes so it was hard to make out who he was. But there was something 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTzHj00nLZn
completely odd about what I saw in the photo.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3AZQ0B0Mrf
"I know this isn't 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJTTzjUv7pI
really supposed to concern me," I said as Derrick looked at the photo 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSV7nnWHe7R
and then back at me. "Who was Zoey with?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ddNSNH68P
"That's my brother," Derrick answered.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsCIY3tE8DG
Now that was a surprise. Derrick had a brother?1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMhFYSP5Zr
"Wait? Brother?" I raised an eyebrow.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ419KBif6O7
"Sadly, yes," said Derrick clearing his throat.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwCSb3AC6wy
I looked at the photo 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZZqA3PkVz
again. "So, you're saying that, this happened the time Zoey went to 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbliQAEiYNq
Paris with G-Dragon and the others? And this person in the photo is your1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnN1cGpJXwL
brother?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFlP2sz5eE
I still couldn't believe it when Derrick nodded his head at me.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡah5rKwLJrC
"You never told me you had a brother," I said, looking at Derrick.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqkv9tKYZkH
"We don't really get along," said Derrick.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcEIxA7qXfB
"That figures," I said as I rolled my eyes. "Why?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFi3dg9p7Yj
"We have been different from each other since we were kids. You can't even tell that he and I are brothers."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDhvCrZmJFe
"So, what's do you think he wants with Zoey?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01OR3Sq5DD
"I have no idea but I know it's something serious."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPYiBf8Acu
"So, you're just assuming all this or what?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDTiqEg8Dlr
"I know my brother very 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZpFeuf4wK
well. I know something is going on between the two of them. I had my 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUeSxNfuhZ
suspicions during the Chanel fashion show."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKWk3Ce7gH
I then remembered the 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDlEtvUgtdt
time Zoey came back to Korea the following day after the fashion show. 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafNoeLloAu
She was acting all weird and the way she had hugged me surprised me a 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRkbNwezPwH
little. And so did the others. Were these guys really in trouble?1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfbxr4QQmr
"Are my brothers and Christine involved in this too?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr3Ubyzuy8a
"I can't be too sure. You have to ask them."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡliRt0PwoZM
"But that's strange. If 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvkQ0iY5Mc
it's something so serious as you put it, they would have told me. I 1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡINxOUapIiU
don't see the reason why they would hide."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqKGao0DW5
"If it's anything concerning my brother, I suggest you find out what's going on and fast. I don't like it."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZOQuvh53a
"But what if all this isn't that serious? In fact, what makes you think your brother is that dangerous enough to hurt us?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4yoUgdfeEq
Derrick leaned back on his chair as he looked at me and I waited for him to answer.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzMsQbvSbM
"My brother isn't one person to mess around with. He is one person who threatens when things don't go his way."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYSFqyYnzti
"You think he is threatening Zoey?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7poVj3NMJA
"He did visit Zoey in that café, didn't he?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8xHlwzLNIJ
"Wait! That was him?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5rNsKMao4F
"Yes. I was there."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyrPggTWKJS
"You were there too?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCby8iFQEe
"Yes. That's when I thought you should help me out with this."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNjGmlAYXD
"But what if I can't?" I folded my arms1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlim1drOoJ9
"Zoey is your best friend, isn't she?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ45n1h3KgYk
