Zoey's P.O.V1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlwFfwYepj
Waking up this Monday 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwoQ69WZoTp
morning was hectic. I didn't want to get out of bed, but in one way or 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYlsBP5XjHQ
another, I would have to. I lay awake, thinking. I didn't want to face 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVmaWFoUGZ
off the challenges for today knowing that one of them was dealing with 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqEiy6nUsjl
Jehan. Since I still have the teddy bear, I wasn't as free as I expected1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GeQTBItgK
myself to be.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVovVrtXZ4H
I couldn't stop 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP7J2Kt105E
wondering what Seungri and TOP were doing at the mall yesterday. As much1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9YZmzNNM9
as I wanted to believe that it was a coincidence, I couldn't help but 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCapXUjgOmE
feel that something was wrong.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAMlPDqqrt
Could they have known 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWqhYX30Re
about Jehan? And if they did, then how? I shook my head. Maybe all that 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0qR0fWGlvL
was nothing but a coincidence and I was just being paranoid. If they 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyC06yxlYp
really had found out about Jehan, they would have been asking questions 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrmADt4EIc4
about him and what he does while we were shopping. But they didn't. We 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF136TmuVYJ
just had our usual conversation.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLYqXULpcHD
I brushed off all those 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡukKfn8wuF8
thoughts aside when the alarm on my phone rang telling me to get up. The1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJpsbbxTYCM
last time I had ever put up an alarm was the morning of my last day of 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5YV3OJaYWd
high school. Eversince I became a musician, I never put up an alarm when1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1VOdL2V05
I knew I had someone around to wake me up. Like Sam.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMRtV5mLcz
But now that she wasn't 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJQ1xVvG7O
here, I had to wake up on my own. Most of the time, I would do so 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrhEaSD3l9H
without her help. But when I overslept, she was always there to wake me.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjK0GHXMVy7
Anyway, right now, I was just too troubled in my sleep that I must have1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8H2pTx7EMA
woken up early before the alarm rang.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSACUzXhaN
I sat up on my bed and 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSEq3Clcsz
switched off the alarm. I checked the empty bed beside mine and I 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvYcQsSFoK
couldn't help but realise how much I miss Sam. I don't know why I was 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4f1zhH2AHv
feeling this way, but I hated the fact that I was missing her so bad. 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxVMUE1HPlw
Not after what happened yesterday at the mall and all over social media.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFaABmeHp2P
After seeing her with 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84nmJ4ns0u
G-Dragon yesterday broke my heart further into tiny pieces. As much as I1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcEkBxSYnrM
knew she was only there just to try and resolve things with G-Dragon, I1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY763Uh3Llc
was filled with fury seeing the two of them together. And to make 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWcmB3q3r8
matters worse, after I had left the mall, I went online and there were 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBtqCV93qYj
pictures of the two everywhere. They were a trending topic for the whole1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLuEg3w7jI8
day. That left me devastated.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKoW1mX1SR1
I couldn't stop looking 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsf0w5kgFQR
at pictures online even when I came back to the hotel. I read so many 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI56m3pPxjV
comments. As much as there were so many haters around (like myself), so 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0TFSccnjd
many people couldn't stop talking about how adorable the two looked 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOUswKUO93
together. I couldn't help but admit to myself that they were right. They1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSRKoJAqB3P
really did make a cute couple. And that left me envious. I wished it 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5IpX9Fz4k
was G-Dragon and I. Not G-Dragon and Sam.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wTJU90xaJ
That sent me boiling to a1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQmOMPUCjqp
point where I almost threw my phone away. When Christine came to see me1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQNnBU6T9o
in my room and found me in an angry fit, I told her how painful I felt 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhyVNFyDWy1
seeing G-Dragon and Sam together.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLoJN8ZzuCn
Christine had told me to1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxc67csl96
cool down and that I shouldn't be jealous. She told me that Sam was 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIQoQbnSVXG
only with G-Dragon because she was only trying to resolve things. I told1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUj1uGNUR1b
her that I already knew that. Christine quickly left me to myself when 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDUks4m66dw
she realised that she couldn't calm me down. So I was alone for the rest1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUhMuSR5dGS
of the day, not speaking to anyone. I didn't even join the others for 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxFzMdSptOk
supper. I had ordered for my supper to be taken up to my room.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZDH3GUTYi
And now, I had to face 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ87zzWPi2bU
another challenge of seeing everyone today, most especially Sam, since 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7d0VCWEy0a
we have to finish up on the dance routine and start working on the music1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCS2z8qRRfv
video as soon as possible. I have to put up with all this today when I 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66wjqJ3ZG2
was still so upset.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVszKD1jLKo
I quickly got out of bed and went in the showers, hoping the cool water would cool down all the boiling anger in me.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenBfHuiSoV
After I was done, I 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2YbfqU5PMa
quickly dressed up. And carrying my purse with me, I went to meet the 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmfTDpE1sL2
others at the dining table for breakfast.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ062vzjPXFt
I found them already 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYG3CVHoY2B
settled. When I came to sit, everyone mouthed out a "good morning" to 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9ltAm26l9
me, except Sam. And I replied back with a smile on my face.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCzwFqzWeXk
I felt a little awkward 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbRdzv4a0b
when I looked at Sam who sat across the table next to Collins and hadn't1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8c6a3ughA3
said a word. She was busy with her breakfast, her usual bacon, eggs and1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjN06pMKaXj
toast with juice. I realised she hadn't even looked up at me once and 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQMjQgllFl
that also felt weird.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujccPmHPaL
I know that she and I 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOoJHN0Jl4f
aren't talking to each other at the moment, but I expected her to say a 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6w6esohyU
"good morning" or even look at me to acknowledge that I was around. She 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUKGJfCbAj
was one person even if we ever had an argument, she would at least try 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF317qDtQCm
to say something to me. The fact that she didn't greet me, made me feel 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcIW8JBZXWH
like something was wrong.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGuCsBgFIOf
I poured myself a cup of1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWt3wO4Amob
coffee, trying to ignore what I was feeling at the moment. I got some 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrncT0Aw2Hd
slices of toast and ate my breakfast.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35ABbY5ksE
"Hey, Sam," said Mike, who sat right next to her. "Have you seen what people have been saying about you and G-Dragon?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBdPZgGLvS
My heart almost skipped a1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡphR5Fc3jtT
beat and I almost choked on my coffee. What was Mike getting at? I know1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdV3CO2vKbY
he does things just to annoy me sometimes, but this time, he's gone way1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb4vDEbMPRG
too far. I was over here! Hello!1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfIM89Jqx5E
"You don't have to remind me," Sam said as she looked at her brother. "I've decided not to go online today."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8GWi6guDG5
"For one who doesn't like attention, you might just disappear off the face of the earth," said Collins.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIh7TF6WSAh
"I can do that," said Sam, staring up at the ceiling obviously building castles in the air.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW5EOyEhYxg
"I have no doubt about it."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvP87Gm0XLl
"But I don't see why you1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqh5WGnacc
have to," said Daniel. "Just because people make stories about you and 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKzqPwSc79
G-Dragon dating, doesn't mean that you are."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGT81ImNsF0
"One thing about fans is1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoFDLekfFso
that they can make a story so believable, even those who don't know 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡycAgOZqaf8
what's going on, might end up believing it," said Christine.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ccItQl8AO
"I know," said Lee. 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67zA6ynHBL
"Right now, some k-pop news sites are already taking this to the next 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYKblM9nWVI
level. But they all say they couldn't be too sure about it until they 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhpm2wRrI30
get an official statement from you and G-Dragon."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJS8cLiNQz
"Wow, that's serious," said Sam.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3T002YYmNX
"But right now, we have no time for interviews," said Collins. "We have a music video to work on."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzyn39Kmtu3
"I can work with that," said Sam, with a smile on her face.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ENgQt2lyt
"Alright, guys, finish your breakfast. You know the drill."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNig56GGSd
"Aye, aye," said Daniel.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKpPXanvL9T
"Well, you're quiet today, Zoey," said Christine as she looked at me. She sat directly across from me on the table.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVHEQHLUF8
"Do you have a problem with that?" I asked, eyeing Christine.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMvqj5Uq9H
"You're just too quiet, that's all."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡECpOEIgAgY
"You should be quiet more often," said Collins as he got up from the table. "It kind of suits you."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF3wCwYyYfY
I frowned at Collins. "Thanks. I'll try doing so more often. That's if I really want to."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2dJmfeRnZO
"Now that's the Zoey I know," said Mike, raising his eyebrow at me and smiling.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdGElkv27CT
I stuck my tongue out at1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ArMcCJljV
him but he continued to smile mockingly nonetheless. I noticed that the1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgEvhs1AZG
others were laughing and smiling at the whole thing, except Sam. She 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpe4YGoG7vn
still wasn't looking in my direction.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaBBYui7mPU
Soon after breakfast, we1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡts4EStc2gG
left for YG. In the SUV, Sam sat at the back with her brothers. We were1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFjvXBxmeS0
all chatting happily in the car but she was quiet the whole way. She 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBSBOiis6P0
was like that nowadays, always lost in thought. I wondered what she 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRcmOfsVxkF
could be thinking about. Sam was one person who never really shared what1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhujJ7y7cTR
she thought. When you asked her about it, she would usually say 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2qnaTgAkP
"nothing" and say no more. But if she really wanted to share with you, 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7i3CUJY3Rd
she would.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoqzDukYNvZ
We arrived at YG and we 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRAIu3MYQxv
found ourselves back at the dance studio we were practising in on 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw7IvSHjMkw
Saturday. We found our dance instructor and all the BigBang members with1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQinWq6N6ZC
the rest of the backup dancers, waiting for us.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXyyPrLLRe
When everyone was 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VAkU5DGYc
exchanging greetings with each other, G-Dragon didn't respond to me when1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTmLRIf1dHd
I said "hi" to him. Given with what happened yesterday, I bet he was 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOEYQF1WDP
still mad at me for how I behaved towards Sam. He didn't even want to 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsRRqroMnF0
hang out with us soon after Sam had left.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzyEurQoC7
He not responding to me 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxkAntfkFn0
felt awkward and I longed for him to at least give me some attention. He1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBrE9rFqD1l
didn't say "hi" to Sam either but just nodded his head when she greeted1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrfjAjCgPv
him. At least that was acknowledging someone even if they weren't 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4AHNFGTlEv
talking to each other. And he was staring at her the whole time even 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMnMK0dC0D
when she wasn't looking. I thought of throwing a shoe at him, but I just1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9XXSJQlnAc
looked away instead.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPvoZKvJ02y
We went straight to 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZY1RaJGU3
practising for almost a good five hours. And those proved to be the 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTRFYDQuZqQ
hardest five hours of my life. Since the dance routine starts with 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkm3edjZz6
G-Dragon and I, it was really hard having him so close. I realised that I1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG0417C4S7j
still had feelings for him. At some point during practise, I almost 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGq9hug6Bw
hugged him, but I brought myself not to. And that wasn't the worst part.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLVpp4hT8JN
During pratice, I 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeOjhyjF5L4
noticed that G-Dragon still couldn't take his eyes off Sam. This was 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2KNpScrxU
getting to the point where I wanted to scream at him to snap out of it. I1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6Jbs0jF68
wondered what he saw in Sam and that sent me thinking.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCG8302nhXn
G-Dragon wasn't the only1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVas7Ecn1jN
one who liked Sam. Come to think of it, Daesung also liked her. 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYFX4lMlT7
Probably even Seungri and TOP, given that Seungri had a beautiful crown 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2svwd1jED
made just for her and TOP flirts with her whenever he gets the chance 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡotjE6W1mdL
to. Taeyang already had Hyo-rin and always takes Sam like a sister. What1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfW4cG0lEpa
did Sam have that even most of the BigBang members like her so much?1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobWWX3vZJx
As her best friend, I 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwI6ivPX3Mm
should be aware of her qualities. She was nice and friendly to whoever 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡre5zWtaGaq
approached her. She is very pretty and had a great body, though she was 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDwQueQ1ZiV
never ever fully aware of her physical beauty. She always thought she 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8Fe45qpia
was like any other ordinary girl but she was more than that.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQJ71V56uW
She is also smart, 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBK9CM6zawr
caring and always understanding. She is a great leader and one who 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlebwyrhBwR
always had our backs whenever we needed it. I don't know how many times 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihFwsARjOz
she had always tried to get The Toxins out of trouble. I agree that even1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4SQxkNbO1
if it looked like we don't appreciate what she does, we really do.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZlzJrDXHPU
Sam has a lot of good 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq39TYtmkmR
qualities. Maybe that's why she is liked and loved by everyone. Even her1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhiVCfUOczm
fans. She is honest, when she wanted to. She is also a pretty good 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpiXTV8pOB
liar, only when it was necessary to do so. And she is one who wouldn't 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSkZUZyYe1p
want to hurt anyone around her.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7PCXbvUsMf
Realising this made me 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNBEjzT6nsB
feel a little guilty as I looked at Sam who was dancing in front of me 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoX6f1A7hOS
with Taeyang beside her. I looked at her face and she had this smile 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6fdF1rf7q
that reflected her innocence. I realised that I had been giving Sam a 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIquMT4Bna
real hard time after I found out G-Dragon likes her and not me. She is 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsLGLj0xjB
my best friend and would do nothing to hurt me. I know she was only 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1o38CphLsr
looking out for me like she always does, but I am just too ignorant to 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXEYtPG8bWV
realise it till now.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMGx9wfUerR
"Wait, hold on a minute guys," said the choreographer. We all stopped dancing as instructed.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnJdtEOBjG5
"Zoey, you aren't 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnqIixzl01E
concentrating," said the choreographer as he looked at me. "This is the 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNydhU0yiVR
second time you have made the same mistake."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqOwdzaE06N
"Oh, sorry," I said, scratching the back of my head feeling embarrassed. "I'll try to be more cautious next time."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6cAYQBcDj
"Okay. Let's continue from where we left off."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡib9GDGvCyr
It was lunch the time we1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK7t8U1BNoF
broke off for a break. The choreographer left and the others were 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQiLMx9ur6
talking to some of the backup dancers. I noticed Sam at the corner of 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJt3po9b4e
the room with Christine and some of the backup dancers talking. It 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBrBmLMaEKQ
looked like they were having one hell of a funny conversation because 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡToHoCGTifq
they were all laughing.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvCl5C6E6os
"Hey, why are you here all alone?" came TOP as he came to stand right next to me.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIufdvRd2kc
"Nothing," I replied, looking down at my sneakers. "I just want to be alone today."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRpjB3FQu8
"Still not talking to Sam?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE83pXAnPkR
"Nope."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3WBxQ4JT1P
TOP's lips rose to a smile. "You really are stubborn."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw9LPint2yS
"Too bad it's in my DNA." I smirked.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMV254qYYD
"And how long do you think you're going to put up with it?" TOP folded his arms as he looked at me.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv0eXKkxvN3
"Maybe till we go home." I shrugged my shoulders.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiTaTYef6mz
"I doubt it. Judging by the way you performed today, you looked really preoccupied that you made several mistakes."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYy5LVi7WW
"Being preoccupied is Sam's thing."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVDgrNbNtM
"I know. But you aren't 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUmF0A4uazP
yourself, that's for sure. The Zoey I know wouldn't be here all alone. 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8LXKCGm5Gn
You would be chit chatting like you always do."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMjvoRN2Jg
"What if I just want to be alone for today?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIvz2lD0qV
"It's okay. Everyone has those kinds of days. But you make it look like being alone sometimes is a bad thing."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB50TQvuIfc
I frowned. "Why?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSaElCIffSN
"Because you look miserable."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBruOaaXFB7
I didn't expect that coming from TOP. My mouth was agape as I looked at him.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3tvuF7ZHXq
"Miserable!"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSn3rNw59HZ
"Ya." TOP nodded his head. "It clearly shows."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRqmRF94EJ2
I thought for a moment 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01ZVA4tx0M
and went back to looking at Sam and Christine with the backup dancers. 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYzppYyXQ4K
Mike, Daesung, Seungri and Daniel had also formed their own little 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc68neOerK6
circle and were laughing and chatting too. Taeyang and G-Dragon were 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCcjckSvtiU
with some of the backup dancers, having a normal chat.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXboNG8ZsxG
Seeing all this in front1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUGXMmvOrlY
of me made me realise that TOP is right. I am definitely miserable. By 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyEMjk5tKNk
now, I would be with the others, chatting. But here I was, all alone. 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBvh5Dkki2K
Until TOP came to talk to me.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRpHTZFaZV
"I guess you're right," I said. "I am miserable."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAojPZ1Xp3r
"Don't worry about it. Aren't you going to resolve things with Sam?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCCWSb5TRGc
"I don't know," I said 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYLcnrP5UeW
as I looked at Sam who was laughing out loud. "I'm still mad at her, but1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPuTBuD7Ha
something in me says that I can't stay like this for long."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqUUdGPDBjB
I told TOP what happened in the morning and how it felt weird that Sam didn't say a word to me nor even looked at me.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0P3wgK9eDN
"I felt so bad about it," I said, shaking my head.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUqUvpVR6fo
"Then why don't you talk to her?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmSnw7fjMS
"Pfft!" I rolled my eyes. "Why should I? Sam always does all the talking."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPFWWUqYa8e
"Really? You think Sam would do that this time around? Besides, she wasn't really at fault with all this."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWW8GM5rqxF
"I know."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH97592TOUk
"So? Are you going to try and talk to her yourself?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqDMghsutBR
"I'll think about it."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3025Woap5h
"Hey, guys," came Seungri, suddenly calling out to everyone in the room. "Who wants pizza?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfC9Akjael
Everyone muttered out "me!" really loud. Seungri smiled and said he would bring the pizza.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgGrY43SJC6
"Mind if you guys can help me?" Seungri asked as he came up to TOP and I.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS0zdFZuD2q
"Sure," I said. I really needed to get out of here for a while and breathe.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7zcryrnmK
The three of us went out1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo9r28XnVzB
of the room and headed to the elevator to take us downstairs. Seungri 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8QQWTk87PW
already had his phone out calling the pizza parlour to take the order.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRlRJ9XOepc
As soon as we reached the ground floor, we stuck around in the lobby waiting for the pizza.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOlPEaPxMZc
"I'm so hungry," said Seungri, staring at his watch.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXIMwuNhbni
"Chill, you just ordered1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpFMYaYbHsd
pizza like right now," said TOP who was sitting right next to me on one1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5yGpKf0ae7
of the chairs in the waiting area of the lobby.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5E85fWMKe
"But I'm so hungry."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS6rhsjyfYD
"Trust me, you aren't 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡapgHJCVxaQ
the only one," I said as I looked at Seungri who was still standing. 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ58LdNkYhGt
"Sit down or else you're going to drain the last remaining blood you 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYgGAkuPW4B
have."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6zkp79T7a
"Well, that's mean," said Seungri as he sat next to me. "What's up with you?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmvjQExpuB
"Nothing," I said as I folded my arms.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuPjDEq5c2I
"She's cranky, don't mind her," said TOP.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKXlaJPJXeI
"I'm not cranky. Just having an awful day."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8Ii25fGVI
"Ya, we can see that," said Seungri with a smirk on his face.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzfN7mRmBFO
I didn't say anything as1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2X2r6KYtxN
I shook my head. All of the sudden, I felt my phone vibrate against my 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUS1Hx9KH9R
thigh in the pocket of my sweat pants. I took out my phone. Jehan was 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI699Sq60f6
calling.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHb7aPPPtY
"Isn't it that French guy we met yesterday at the mall?" TOP asked, looking at my phone screen.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOnoMibDXqu
"Can you please not look!" I said as I turned the phone screen away from TOP's eyes.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zW2kgw4UR
"Okay, well you better answer that call."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk3rUgIS0au
I stood from the chair and answered Jehan's call when I was a few feet away from the two.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVSceG0Ttla
"Hello," I answered.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdj1Co6mySz
"Hey, Zoey," said Jehan. "Are you busy today?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9IY0coHIC
"Ya, I'm very busy," I answered. "Why?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdcOjyb2BKT
"We have to meet today, ASAP."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBIKXS48XcN
"But I can't. I have a lot to do today and I don't think I'll manage to meet with you."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqXheewJmWp
"I don't care. I need that teddy bear today. Not tomorrow, but today."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKq97JEfRw
I knew Jehan was going 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXPXWQzWpd
to call and demand for the teddy bear. Luckily, I carried my purse with 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAi2eqXsQIf
the teddy bear in it. I hadn't removed it from my purse since yesterday 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkf6iwmS719
and I checked to see if it was still in there this morning. The purse 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡivOfXZOdeo
was upstairs in the dance studio.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCiKSNcxyFf
"Okay, what time do you want to get the teddy bear?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLOlg4U2P3F
"I'm coming to YG to get it."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFGCz9CUU1
"What!" I was horrified and equally surprised. "No way. You can't come here."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdxKY3G4P37
"Fine. If you have a better idea, then call me or text in the next thirty minutes. I have to get that teddy today."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2JHFBSOKb
"You don't have to remind me," I snarled.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW14SMvfUlO
He cut the call and I 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyf46jd9T8h
looked at my phone like I was ready to throw it out of the lobby through1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgapC8HCwDJ
the open entrance doors. This was bad. Real bad. He wanted to come here1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMUemTaeah
to get the teddy. That was going to be dangerous. If anyone were to see1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡny3I1MhcpY
him they would start to ask questions.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzc3JPzX8Rp
"Zoey," came Seungri's voice behind me.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSIhZ0IQN8j
I turned around and there stood Seungri and TOP staring at me.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHSXzZg9yes
"What?" I asked.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNwhbkul7rl
"Was that Jehan you were talking to?" TOP asked.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9vMRPOdA7z
"Um, ya. Is there a problem?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5fusCtiajp
"You two didn't seem to be having a normal conversation," said Seungri. "It sounded like you were arguing or something."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3X9SQ4IUrA
"Arguing? Pfft. No," I gave out a small laugh trying to hide my fear. "It was just some silly misunderstanding."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡChgBENjHT4
"Come on, Zoey," said TOP. "That was no ordinary misunderstanding and I know an argument when I see one."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeAVlDgFb4w
"Guys, it's nothing. You're worrying for no reason."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0zYJWK9ZWE
"Oh, ya? Then why were you talking about that teddy bear then? It's that small cute teddy he had sent you, right?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIFggGiO3q
Dang it! I was cornered 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKSN1vuJgFl
now. They had heard about the teddy. I couldn't come up with a lie. If 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOa3BHJxu8M
anything, I'm a terrible liar. Looks like the truth will always come to 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlcCKFxVRNN
light no matter how much you try to hide it.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEu0nouTeJn
"Tell us, Zoey," said Seungri softly. "It can show on your face that something is wrong."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQzplVu9J8
I sighed as I looked down on the floor. "Fine. But don't tell anyone."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGMoJNjjsdc
"Okay. Now tell us what's going on," said TOP.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpZT3XP3eX
We went back to settle down on the chairs. We were at a reasonable distance away from the receptionist so I could talk quietly.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ02tyx9StG2
I told them everything 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7eG0Pd6ZW
from what happened in Paris till now. They listened carefully and hadn't1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHI9MrAfgXc
said a word until I finished the whole story.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNcp02KDJp9
"Have you told anyone about all this?" Seungri asked.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5alWAic7tC
"Just you two," I answered.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZy7r65SEJ
"Wow, this is serious," said TOP, trying to take it all in. "He's a diamond smuggler?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJ2FeFL8Ve
"Surprising, right?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzs3cCrTop
"He seemed so nice when we met him," said Seungri.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcwGYngjXMj
"We should involve the police," said TOP.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxj2SZaAxC
"No! We can't!"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfHkfnPTTo
"Why?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡblhzh7iVNJ
"You know word goes out 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6qjSVAw9M
fast. The next thing we know, it's going to be all over social media and1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡht3uIqzFDo
might give The Toxins a bad name. I would rather do this quietly."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjIeDNSJj6
"And how are you so sure he isn't going to use you again?" Seungri asked.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEsx3LwPsJO
"He assured me that this1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXg21WpAq8u
will be the last time he will ever use me to do any of his dirty 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8W19PKrzLY
business. I just have to give him the teddy bear and that's it."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaN0MzhRzjq
"Give who the teddy bear?" came Christine's voice.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhN5VDMPoZ
The three of us turned 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaAlKpt1Dq0
and we saw Christine standing a few feet away from us. We hadn't heard 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuv2Y8kfa4O
the elevator doors open nor her footsteps. How did she get here unheard?1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4PLv8k2rpI
"Christine, you're here?" I raised my eyebrows.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLqXt50ebgh
"Ya, I came to check up on you guys since some of us are really hungry," said Christine.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsMC8etBK0
"The delivery guy hasn't arrived yet," said Seungri with a smile.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrIqR4bOay
"What's this about some guy and a teddy bear?" Christine asked as she looked at me.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDZix7vXGq
"Ummm, it's nothing, Christine," I said, waving my hand in the air. "Just talking about some random stuff."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkqGHwnfLJ
"Random stuff involving a1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2QU2KmVFcE
teddy bear?" Christine shook her head at me as she folded her arms. "I 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmsk3CGFmF
clearly heard you talking about giving some guy a teddy bear and that 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0bcs17SR2
you won't have to do his dirty business anymore. I know you're hiding 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX2PyqToect
something from me, Zoey. So you better start talking."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6CobZBFoN
I rolled my eyes and sighed so loud in frustration. How many people was I going to tell the truth to today?1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6O3zkDyvc
"Fine," I said, looking at Christine. "But please don't tell anyone about this."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjE9OV5BuU
"Okay, I won't."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf19tWWT33z
"Sit down."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJuY24F2df
Christine sat right next to TOP and she looked at me with anticipation.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZBgNeEfeu
"I got myself into trouble," I started.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhDPzOFbMtx
"Great!" Christine threw her arms in the air. "What did you do now, Zoey?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXg566Oo6OG
"I got involved with a diamond smuggler."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtM08eYFRPW
Christine's face soon 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMbGrEUUi2Z
drained of colour and she looked as white as a ghost. She tried to open 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpcTfAw7Umg
her mouth to say something but she couldn't. Until....1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfMaFEgsMFk
"What!"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPfkRsYaXU
TOP quickly covered up 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6RgDPxSlpD
her mouth before she could shout out anything else. The receptionist 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKgQAy8Td9
looked our way and soon went back to work. When he was sure she had 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO8eWqWY4J0
cooled down, TOP removed his hand from Christine's mouth.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnslc2IpOE9
"Are you cool now?" TOP asked.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxru7xZaVE
"Cool?" asked Christine, sounding anxious. "I come here and hear about some diamond smuggler. How can I be cool?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3sh9AujGzM
"I know you're really mad at me right now, but you asked what was going on," I said, looking apologetically at her.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡILpM9slt68
"Of course I'm mad!" 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8glQLzFUs4
Christine whispered angrily at me. "I know you always get in trouble, 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw1fQQPtfsY
but this by far is the worst one of them all."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPlRdg5sWn
"At least it's not a drug dealer," I said shrugging my shoulders.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVfxQikmMm
"Is there a difference? Seriously, Zoey. How the heck did this happen?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2W4vf5rZb
"It happened in Paris," I said. "Remember the guy I introduced you to at the fashion show?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9S5c8jtvHZ
"Ya, I remember. What about him?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kGBtLQh8Z
"He's the diamond smuggler," said TOP.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6smCCD475C
"WHAT!"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1BYHsIeekL
"Ssh!" TOP, Seungri and I hushed at her at the same time, putting our fingers on our lips.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCAFmRI8VJj
"Guys, I can't help it, sorry," said Christine. "Wait, that handsome guy is the diamond smuggler?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrEWOWMtMAt
"And the one I met at the café," I said.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMU1c77XGQE
"So he is the one who sent us the teddy bear?" Christine asked.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZQ4OV2CQp
"Yes," the three of us answered at the same time.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGvhtUhcKf
"But why does he want the teddy bear back?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFLdpnMwjG
"Because the teddy has diamonds in it," said Seungri.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLc3avVwfI
"Wow, seriously?" Christine's eyes bulged out with surprise.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOeFcT4xmy
"Ya," I said. "I planned1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvVoWOQRtt
on giving him the teddy bear yesterday but I couldn't because these 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTfLh820LhR
guys showed up." I pointed at Seungri and TOP with my two thumbs.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR0qP7EEsV5
"So you're the one who 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8sN4cKdAZL
got the teddy from our room yesterday," said Christine. "Lee was 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJO820xY4M
searching for it and couldn't find it. She thought she must have 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKlxkCJVHYX
misplaced it somewhere. You even went to meet him? I thought you went 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PgUYVPWXu
out with Seungri."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtRC8HmDqDk
"I lied."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOM4HUhATBI
Christine shook her head. "I knew something was up. You are really not good at lying."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeuxJPxZmhm
"I know." I gave Christine a grim look, not feeling impressed about myself at all.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1E6RRKQT0T
"Why didn't you tell us you were being threatened by this guy?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlP6EJZG8zA
"I wasn't supposed to. And besides, it was too dangerous. He threatened me with a gun in Paris not to tell anyone."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvc5btDLdbX
"That's great. There are guns too. Blackmail would have been so much better."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6W12hUnYp
"I know. Now he wants the teddy bear back today. And I don't know what to do. He wanted to come here and get the teddy himself."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJ0YQgYvGB
"Then why didn't you let him?" Christine asked.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡybz4nHhjRe
"That was going to raise a lot of questions if anyone saw him," said Seungri.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Bk1Te43gA
"Now where is she going to meet him now? She has to take that teddy bear away or else it could land us into more trouble."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaA1LEOluhH
"He said I should have a location as to where we meet," I said. "And I haven't thought of anything yet."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDciYbMl6Bp
"Why don't you meet after practice?" TOP suggested.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVB0DFyOANC
"But where?" I asked.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7hxVRmcAp
"Tell him you will meet at the café. The one you had met him in last time. TOP and I will take you there," said Seungri.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡue6e999qNQ
"I'm also coming with you," said Christine. "And don't refuse." She pointed her finger at me when I opened my mouth to object.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqLH3YeFKF
"Fine, but remember, don't tell anyone," I said.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnRNWJt62Y
"Got it," said TOP and Seungri at the same time. Christine nodded her head.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhchOniPcyo
I took my phone out and 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxQgD2KiA4
texted Jehan that we should meet at the café after practise some time in1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM8Lz0aUkkl
the evening. He replied saying that he would be there.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnIBvrGgH7
"Okay, it's settled," I said as I put my phone back in my pocket.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWnkD2nyHzB
"Yay! The pizza is here," said Seungri as he stood up and approached the pizza delivery man coming in through the entrance.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ10V6R7vbQG
Seungri had ordered ten 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2LomMzp7KA
large sized boxes of pizza, enough for everyone upstairs. And the 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyYjJPZcfvG
flavour, mac and cheese. Sam's favourite. Well, almost everyone's 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8FrfKNCgCo
favourite.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKEEyfWsvFj
We helped Seungri with the pizza and went to the elevator which took us back up to the floor of the dance studio.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLi2p1xF011
"When all of this is over, Zoey, you're going to get a scolding from me," said Christine, as we walked down the hall.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAKyFGNhkDZ
"I'll be ready for 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ70Zv7ohzE3
that," I said as I rolled my eyes. "I just can't wait to have everything1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9GteHUBYWm
back to the way they were. Before all the threatening."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVCGfjejUfU
"No, they won't," said Seungri. "You still have Sam to resolve things with."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7tCeT1YaHW
"And G-Dragon," TOP added.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfdPvyFqMqR
"Can we please not talk about that?" I asked. "You don't have to remind me all the time."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7l5C11rekL
"Well, someone has to," said Christine.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ87c8RPh5Bd
"Just so you know, I'll agree to resolve things on my own terms."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWV96XB33D
"Jeez," said Christine, rolling her eyes at me. "When you say that, I have to get ready for the unexpected."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8c4J5Zn8gd
We found ourselves back 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKEXAK4kNUg
at the studio and this time, I found Sam talking to Taeyang. G-Dragon 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMygmDp6iKI
was still talking to some of the back up dancers and I could see him 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCR4jkZcmD2
staring at Sam through the corner of his eye. Or was that me being 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE8Y298hwD8
paranoid?1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwBcI7jNBM
Christine snapped her fingers right in front of me and I turned to look at her.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvJUrCOntA
"What?" I asked.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDpUAkN8rPC
"You were frowning," Christine answered.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNg5OmXuhe
"Frowning? I wasn't frowning."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUO1CRuTf8u
"Says the person who 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmeqy3p1BL
couldn't stand seeing G-Dragon looking at someone else." Christine gave 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4b8bcp6TH
me a smirk and left me standing all alone by the door, while she joined 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4eaprywjg
the others who had soon formed a circle around Seungri and TOP.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg25QCHqN2L
Soon after lunch, we 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7aUc9yys4
went straight back to practising. This time, for a good six hours. We 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzggGEJtEY
had to do the dance routine over and over again to perfect it. This time1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrspeZKhUr
around, I made sure not to make any mistake like I had been doing 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjFjercojmJ
earlier. This time, everything was coming out perfectly and I don't know1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9wfNUlkc7G
how many times we had to do the routine all over again. But despite the1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5iRpecbELk
number of times we did it again, we had a whole lot of fun.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaNn5oKd83j
At some point in the 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbJo7bJviK
afternoon, our two managers and Lee came over to check on us and they 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsF6yw2WKxS
were really impressed. Yang Hyun-suk thought filming the dance practise 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ614ObJIcib
will be helpful and that they would release it after the music video. 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13FTYPj4aO
The dance practise was shot and it came out perfect, but still, we went 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7o4HdQDASj
back to practising until we could pratice no more.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPtGJgfkqJM
It was five and the sun 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPBJb82g5n
was setting when we were finally done for the day. I was so tired that I1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYukAZHz8U
was lying on the floor. My body aching everywhere. Luckily, I wasn't 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9YrJEIopm8
the only one on the floor. Christine and Daniel were lying on either 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5qpnWMbBkC
side of me. We were all pretty tired.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGpllqn49I
The choreographer had already left and the backup dancers also started to leave. G-Dragon and Taeyang left together.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUqPOuv9ow
While I was resting and 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4PqM9Syft0
gathering up any ounce of energy I had left, Seungri was standing next 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJkaCQCWA6w
to my head and looking down on me. I looked up at him with a puzzled 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSRvpsruODS
look on my face.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPeCM9lfbiN
"Get up, Zoey, we gotta go," he said.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1DDBh9hBDs
"Go? Go where?" I asked.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYtYb60FSOW
Christine roughly nudged me on my side with her elbow, I looked at her with a whining look on my face.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpt1x0oc2KF
"Ouch, that hurt!" I said.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaZNWxIRfqu
"Are you forgetting, Zoey?" Christine asked, raising her eyebrows. "We have to go somewhere to do something."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYa0oHBvyY
It was then that I remembered that I was supposed to meet Jehan at the café. I totally forgot.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UTaHBCzS7
"Oh, ya!" I quickly sat up on the floor and Christine followed. "We have to go."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyYdwRj55FQ
"Go where?" Daniel asked, still lying down on the floor and looking at us.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6TQdXV0SPS
"No where," I answered quickly. "We're just planning on going around the city for a drive."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgUg1fKkJ8c
"I want to follow too," said Daniel.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbF0Uv3ucb
"Where did you say you were going?" came Mike who had been talking with Sam and Daesung.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxXGB53z9q
I rolled my eyes. Seriously? The last thing I want is for everyone to follow and find out what's going on.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQI7ibc5zR
"It's nothing really," said TOP. "We were planning to drive around the city. You don't have to follow."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTv4wl4AKVk
"But this is not fair," said Daniel, sitting up quickly. "I also want to come along."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmMDSN0Q3c7
"Ya, me too," said Mike.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg0LCDaTtPz
"Why don't you want 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKwEXdipe2E
these guys to go along?" Sam asked. I noticed that she still wasn't 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrNCTYMt7NX
looking at me. "You're just going for a drive. I see no reason for them 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW1TRwH6fII
not to follow."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBXod8tdvz
I wanted to protest and 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHaZh5Sk9IG
refuse but then I realised that I wasn't supposed to talk to Sam. And 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXC2hTTFxz
refusing her was going to be pointless because I already know Seungri 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡocm9SIYvKN
and TOP weren't going to deny her so easily.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVmFKiJXn9U
"Okay, they can come along," said Seungri.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhSCsuM1sYO
Dang it!1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWDQiBq893
"Okay, you'll find me back at the hotel. I'll tell Collins that you had to go out," said Sam to the others, giving them a smile.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMf5OmIHQHJ
"I can take you back to the hotel if you want," said Daesung, addressing Sam.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvhk0Buk7S
"Thanks, that's nice of 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIw3GJgJGB5
you, Daesung," said Sam giving him a sweet smile. She turned to look at 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUwFuL2Zc6u
the others. "Have fun you, guys."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDkl90R6o4o
Sam and Daesung left the1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTHk3vuOOh
room together and I couldn't help but look at the door and think to 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡusKq2DlvZg
myself that the two also made a nice pair.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG8EyHZ3yNx
"So, where are we going?" Mike asked.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0lvBI0uf8
"Please, don't ask any questions," I said as I turned to face him. "It's none of your business."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOMNyPa5onu
"Mmm, seeing the look on your face, something's up," said Daniel.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyv0KCbv1s
Christine stood up from 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3K2W14brV
the floor and said, "look guys, if we tell, you have to promise not to 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC06IHz4KKr
tell anyone. Not even Sam. No one."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqSHSZyaeuQ
I looked up at her with my eyebrow raised. "Are you seriously going to tell them?" I asked.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpETmqrozQO
"Do I have a choice? You know how persistent these two are and they are probably going to find out anyway."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMQ19nga8f
"Ya, Christine's right," said Seungri. "And we also couldn't refuse Sam for them to come along."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPPHdiQEqC
"You just couldn't refuse because you like her too much," I said, turning to face Seungri.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37VHaN1rzv
Seungri shrugged and smiled. "What can I say? I've to obey the lovely queen, right?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBq9rG23nb
I almost snapped back at him but I controlled myself and looked away.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgq426NTV0J
"Okay, can we focus on telling us what's going on?" Daniel asked.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsc8W381NWN
"Fine," I said. "Someone tell them. I can't keep repeating myself with all this."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNPAcGt6fQi
TOP told Mike and Daniel what was going on. The two brothers were shocked after what they heard.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLaO5Ks0Zcs
"Oooh, you're in a lot of trouble now, Zoey," said Mike, looking at me and shaking his head.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1iPxGyJf7h
"You don't have to remind me," I said rolling my eyes.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5lPjNvqAU
"I can't believe that guy is the diamond smuggler," said Daniel.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5mtDOPApf
"I know," said Christine.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1vr1MxzBD
"You haven't told Sam about this?" Mike asked.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIMCSlrB4MV
"No. No one has to know," I said. "Not even the police."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJwujvv6hC
"I think you should have told Sam," said Daniel.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7acAhD22p
"So that she can judge me? No way."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9l84qvW4sC
"You know Sam can never do that," said Seungri. "She would have helped in any way possible."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdmIPBQzYZR
"Don't try to convince 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPtMPTIInFJ
her of anything," said Christine. "She probably won't listen like she 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFfRGcvhVSC
always does." I raised an eyebrow at Christine and she looked back at me1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4OROmIeLc
like she could hit me with a hammer.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnaUmWdjMV3
"Okay, let's go," said TOP.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIVgNb9BR8H
I got up from the floor 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmWeXCMOdTH
with Daniel and I took my purse. We soon left the room and headed 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9NMDhATU2Y
downstairs. Sam and Daesung had already left since there was no sign of 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0dEgaDFsJa
Daesung's car in the parking lot. Christine and I went with Seungri in 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrm3f2kE1KF
his car while Daniel and Mike went in TOP's car.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhGfsc8LHL
The cars soon left the 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDTxakaaTXS
YG premises and in the car, I couldn't help but feel nervous. What if 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ85HiPaEAF0
things didn't work out like it did yesterday? I hope not. Every now and 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPB4FWL5GI
then, I would open and check if the teddy bear was still in my purse.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZu6lcYNvg
"Can you you please stop1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEODaJ8NH2
doing that?" Christine asked from the back seat. "You might just drop 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCfW7lkOMNg
the teddy and lose it in the car."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMxc7VBcP7
"Stop joking around," I said as I turned to look at Christine.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6aJjqMxy0E
"Well, then stop getting nervous. We're all here with you so there is nothing to be worried about."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHAiFIQNTCp
I leaned back on the chair and tried to relax. "You're right," I said. "I need to relax."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK7YAaSy0q6
"Don't worry, we're almost there," said Seungri as the car took a turn.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJETinWbzxP
"I just want to get this over with."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTkPXxfEq7L
We were soon packed 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC7QnHssBOb
right outside the café and TOP's car parked right next to us. I took a 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04jlHi1dZ5
deep breath. Christine came over and put her hand on my shoulder. I 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡke5r57a8tr
turned to look at her.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF3HDf5y1B4
"Everything is going to be okay," said Christine giving me an encouraging smile. "If anything happens, we'll be here."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkipw9dqmjq
"Thanks," I said with a smile. "I'm glad you guys are all here."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsCphWC25Hz
Seungri also turned to 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzBDDe0HKU
smile at me. I don't know what I would have done without them. Their 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ieb9JHJ9B
presence here gave me a little comfort. But I felt a small hole in my 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfpTY0PFf5
chest and I wished Sam was here too.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡykcjdOF1d0
I soon got out of the 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnetJNXOUkp
car and there was a sudden chill in the air. Maybe it's because the sun 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo9h5LoGtd8
was setting that it started to get cold. I had my purse in my hand and I1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKtKswqdw1
looked towards the café. I hope everything will go as planned.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhRx7TrcBe
Before I could find my 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlspjzyhBcS
way into the café, TOP, Mike and Daniel waved at me through the windows 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGtNRPiCwb
of TOP's car and giving me a thumbs up. I smiled a little and waved 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDvvXH6L8sw
back. At least that gave me the confidence to go ahead.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4TQCwM86Wa
I quickly went in the 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4NVdRMHYL
café and when I slowly stepped in, I looked around for Jehan. I spotted 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2m3zAF1N1
him right next to the huge glass window where we had last sat down 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡScvsSZ0jPe
together. He was alone in his smart pressed black suit, as always.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRnqpHP3sIa
I slowly approached the 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWx5CrNOsId
table. His eyes never left me since I walked in the café. When I got to 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQCiBAKHUOa
the table, I sat facing him. My heart was beating so fast. I don't know 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs8cpJeoSn4
why I was so scared that things might go wrong and Jehan wouldn't 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM0SR9CYhdI
hesitate to end my life right here.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3MjEspXdc
"I'm glad you could make it," said Jehan. "I was almost about to call my driver to come pick you up."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeAwt1u2q7A
"I was practising today," I answered.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpUfUeNufHB
"You look really tired. It could show all over your face."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwyi2y6pzZu
"Thanks," I frowned at 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxEcwRbYtgL
him. "Can we get this over with? I still have a busy day tomorrow and I 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4OGsUOPuc8
would like to get this teddy bear off my back."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjjEgeTqyfn
Jehan smirked. "Certainly."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxsmJlH8xL
I quickly reached out 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdl4y0us4AS
for the purse on my lap, opened it and gave him the teddy bear. Jehan 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFLuBSqFmGC
reached out to take it and I couldn't help but feel relieved.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpsJHXgkgL1
"There! You have your teddy," I said. "Can I go now?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6Vzu8NKZB
"Wait." Jehan held up a finger when I was just about to stand up and leave. I sighed.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJOInmzlp3
"What now?" I complained.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjHmsLq20l
"I need to check if all the diamonds are in here," said Jehan, shaking the teddy in his other hand.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXDjHJ2gkJ
"What do you think? That1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcgjMoBWdy8
I would steal from you?" I was really surprised that he didn't trust 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ50TrhhYEln
me. "You pointed a gun to my head in Paris and I have done everything 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcbOm0pi0O9
you have asked until now. What makes you think I would steal your 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyJU7CSLxd8
diamonds? I have a life to live, may I remind you."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTIKflTtltO
Jehan raised an eyebrow 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqzKS4XXXK
at me. "Nice one, Zoey. You almost had me convinced. But I'm still going1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ2LOeRwar3
to check. I've to make sure all the diamonds are in here before I make a1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0D4tdMWiF
fool of myself in front of my clients I'm selling these to."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEwVdgPPIZ
"Fine." I folded my arms on the table. "If you don't believe me, then check it yourself. I know I'm innocent."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnz8Ba8tq9k
"I know you're." Jehan gave me a smile and I looked away facing the window. It was getting really dark outside so fast.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvXeIRl0VJ
I went back to looking 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcLmtJCfJ06
at Jehan who had laid the little teddy bear on the table and he dug into1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3FBu1I5FV
the pockets of his suit and removed a small pocket knife. It didn't 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMqlnRg9cIz
surprise me that he carried that thing around.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2ucDSwCWu
Jehan slowly laid the 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9mwTp5fY6J
blade onto the little teddy's belly and cut through its tiny suit, 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUmHzFowbaf
dissecting the teddy bear. This reminded me of science class back in 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMv4H9WkckP
high school when we were told to dissect a frog. Doing that was so 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMvXdcIgfd8
disgusting that I ended up purking all over Sam's shoes, who was my 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3hvN66Thr1
science partner. This time, it was just cotton stuffing that came out of1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZL72xEJ4R
the teddy bear.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGPrHQbjpT3
Wait. I frowned. This 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcmYbSM7jig
isn't right. I raised an eyebrow when Jehan kept on removing cotton 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7H9NOfapZP
stuffings and there was no sign of the diamonds. Where were the 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnJ6bISrRXI
diamonds!1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfgvO3fA8h
I stared horrified at 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDVZcftuBK
the scene on the table. There was tiny cotton stuffings everywhere and 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZsqtA4tQj
the bear that laid stuffless on the table was a sad site to see because 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2RLroCPii
there was nothing in it. No diamonds.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCVfz33FpL
I looked up at Jehan and1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw44vdvZlpd
he was as surprised as I was. His mouth was wide open and he couldn't 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GVe8vqJYf
stop looking at the dissected teddy. If he kept on looking at it like 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7iH26vF93j
that, he was going to end up traumatised.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgdzacIPNO
"Je-Jehan," I said 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzCmTa3B9k
softly. Hoping he wouldn't bite at me like a dog with rabies. "Jehan. 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSWTceYYvv
I...I have no idea what has just happened, but, there are no diamonds in1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqcfdO2GLJ4
there."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡelzBROscao
Jean neither moved nor 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5LeQ8MGCq
said a word. I was getting worried. Should I move him to try and snap 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDfQOgdbbw
him out of it? I didn't know what to do.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgK2aLczgaw
But how could this be? 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ck6tK3823
Where did the diamonds go? It's not like the teddy bear could just poop 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs9BqDZWYgG
out diamonds since it wasn't alive or anything. Something weird was 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2dd4WdATJ8
going on. And I wasn't like liking it at all.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7vPPyt0hY
"Where are my diamonds?" Jehan muttered silently, still looking at the scene before him.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxsbj71pTAc
"I...I don't know," I said shaking my head. I was scared of his reaction and I prepared myself for it.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFr6cXJL5rQ
He banged his fists on 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkY8ZJ1oazR
the table so loudly that he startled not only me, but everyone else in 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9lzTlaOBNV
the café. Everyone turned to look at us and I looked around then back at1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3NTizNbOs
Jehan, whose eyes were as red as a bull's, staring at me.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4mrQKxvdfU
"Jehan, chill," I said, putting my hands up to calm him down. "Let's not try to get angry here."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOAvClNsHhB
"Where are my diamonds, Zoey?" This time he didn't shout but the anger in his voice got me shivering.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQW1K7AjIF
"I don't know. I don't 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMp3IjhePb
know what's going on right now. This is the same teddy bear you sent us.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmjSQ2spID8
I don't know why it doesn't have diamonds in it."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVyx36aFPH
"How did the diamonds go missing?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrIdWfLTGEy
"How am I supposed to 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHjaHx4eSy
know? I just kept the teddy for you. Maybe you sent me the teddy without1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZJJpRIZj3
diamonds in it and you probably never noticed."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdx350x1fbC
"Don't doubt what I do, Zoey! I made sure I made no mistake."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3nPKbfY9X5
"Okay, chill, I believe you. Look, why don't we try to sort this out calmly? Getting upset won't do us any good."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41lHRFMDsZ
Jehan rubbed his 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWfiJurGOE
forehead and sighed as he leaned back further into his seat. He seemed 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyw6nj5Ru8Y
to have calmed down when he looked at the teddy bear again.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtoFmix11FH
"I need my diamonds back, Zoey."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtu3wvSDAK
"I know. You've said that like almost a hundred times now."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYEgIq4U2S
"Let's not joke around here. What happened? Why does this bear have no diamonds in it?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjii1DU3KG
"I didn't do anything. I swear. That teddy was just the way it was eversince you sent it."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCdPW0cWfTB
"Then why doesn't it have diamonds in it?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9e8C0KpNs
"I don't know."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7nxVLV57K
Jehan looked at me with an eyebrow raised. "Who else had this teddy apart from you?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNeHCEFxt2
"Ummm," I looked down 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBYQyRYHu92
and played around with my fingers. "Uh....I wasn't the one who had been 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ81J2KPylj
taking care of the teddy bear this whole time."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw9Clei9Y41
"What?" Jehan sounded surprised. "What do you mean?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8UpDV52mD5
"I didn't have the teddy bear with me at the hotel the whole time," I said, looking at him fully in the eyes now.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrpIgycyVi3
"Who had the teddy bear?" Jehan leaned closer, his eyes not leaving mine.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDmIkPHTX1S
"Lee had it before I took it from her yesterday."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXaAOoi2Z3L
"Oh, my gosh!" Jehan 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgqNLBcavH8
covered his face with his hands and I could see this wasn't going too 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYHz5MrpnK
well for him. "Could she have the diamonds?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwal5dh8GAE
"I don't think so. Lee 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNR5r7gAPv0
is an honest person. If she did notice there were diamonds in the teddy,1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmrGCkux1w
she would've said something. No way. She can't have the diamonds."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLx1t38eANy
"Then how do we explain all this! She was the last person to have the teddy, correct?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡidUDR8Rq3l
"You're right. But if she did find out about us and all this diamond business, she wouldn't keep that to herself. I know Lee."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJIl8L0QvV
"Maybe you don't know Lee well enough. If this is the same teddy I had sent, where could the diamonds be?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZ7w1blqtK
"Maybe this is just another teddy bear and the actual one with the diamonds is still at the hotel."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEgwughZGF
After I said that, Jehan1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk4vQYelNZc
quickly took the dissected teddy bear in his hands and looked at it 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSYyNPNBHZ
carefully. He turned the teddy, looking at its back side and tearing the1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmiQtuRNnbf
suit away. I wondered what he was looking for because he had a serious 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxcOzw8Tko
look on his face.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujplMfoneL
"You're right," said Jehan. "This is definitely another teddy bear and not the one I sent you."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsrlni6xmD
"Wait, how do you know?" I asked.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFO4D9ZZGX
"I remember one of my 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnOukULLmgT
men who sewed the teddy bear after putting diamonds in it at the back. 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2nXLWLfDFi
There should have been some stitching here but this one doesn't."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQv2NvIVene
"Ha!" I snapped my fingers. "I knew I was right!"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡveBJOx8DNa
"Don't snap your fingers and be all happy about this," said Jehan, back to giving me that angry look. "I need that teddy, now!"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXRWAxkS9ny
"Huh? I can't start 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsKfrU5QhE
searching for it now. It would look suspicious. And I can't start asking1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCAVrq51kzR
Lee if she bought another teddy just like this one. She already knows 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzy4DYtMB8T
that the bear is missing."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wZZ7ed8j1
"Then maybe, Lee isn't the only person you should be asking."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmgzr2pala7
"What do you mean?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEyG4AKy0vx
"Someone else must know where the other teddy bear is. Your group members perhaps."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1i5xaCVZQ
"No. I highly doubt it. Lee must have bought another teddy and we just didn't know about it."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXWLh9DCnxf
"Now that, makes no 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsoOIj2k7uP
sense. If I were you, I would go back and find out what happened to that1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLcix3wmdL
teddy and ask around for it. I'll need that teddy tomorrow."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4GFIFl0MWc
"Tomorrow! Are you nuts!"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEyn7B7m9t3
"Maybe I am because I'm desperate to have those diamonds back."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcluM3DS9ib
"I might not be around tomorrow. I have a music video to shoot."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoTc2QV8tUV
"Find those diamonds and you will be scott free, Zoey. Or do you want everyone to mourn over you when they find you dead?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHqN0JtFC2r
I completely forgot that1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUHfpkjkPA
I was being threatened by this guy. Though his threats didn't scare me 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzstUQb17nj
anymore, I just had to abide to everything. Who knows, he might not have1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVappeb4Q3
me killed, but he could hurt the others and it would be all my fault.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsBBmSbQPHO
"Okay. I'll see what I can do."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYLCHOL34Ae
Jehan gave me a smile. 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIL2qbrUdtX
"That's more I like it. I would start working on this soon if I were 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf5kiGttqSF
you. Try your best to find the bear by tomorrow, will you?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5EUsQ5oedZ
I nodded my head and 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmf4KG8jqs
that made him smile even more. He soon stood up from his seat and looked1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kdNCKSgpX
down at me. I looked back at him without a saying a word.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbfVZtX3e2
"See you tomorrow," said Jehan and he quickly walked out of the café.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnUFwLTHq19
I sat there as I buried 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWda19zCqL
my face in my hands, thinking of what to do. Again, everything was 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnQicMM8VT
ruined. First, the interruption from TOP and Seungri yesterday. Now, the1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWr6oaX9wAj
teddy bear had been swapped with another. My life couldn't get any 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6MuWaF1Jk
worse than this. What was going on? Who was putting me into so much 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8wIvb1ARV
drama that might just ruin my life?1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsjhrjJNR4l
I hadn't noticed the bell of the café ringing because I felt a hand on my shoulder and when I looked up, there stood Christine.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQ0pcQ4tOU
"Zoey, what happened?" Christine asked, as she turned to look on what was on the table.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqSLEQHGAQb
I could hear footsteps 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi01s8kAl6b
behind me. The others had come in the café too. They all looked worried 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbNKeq4UOpX
when they saw the look on my face.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡldV9c2Gvos
Christine sat where Jehan had been a few minutes ago and looked at the tattered teddy bear on the table.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUvSbGXxEH
"What's going on?" Daniel asked. "And what happened to Mr Teddy?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgJwqVf74C
"Jehan didn't look happy when he left the café," said TOP. "Didn't he get his diamonds?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDSLW7CtPC
"No," I answered. "He didn't."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhAG09EUraQ
"What?" Seungri sounded surprised. "What do you mean he didn't get his diamonds?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKAHQdvjY3R
"This teddy isn't the teddy he had sent us," I answered. "Someone swapped the teddy with another."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNBSpnOFLy
Mike shook his head. "But who? We didn't know what that teddy bear had until now, so, it couldn't be anyone of us."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXb8zZ14sMr
"And what about Lee?" 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAGOLAnhiwX
Christine asked. "She was the one who last had the teddy before Zoey 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCaFjdpvAGA
took it. But what doesn't make any sense is why she would want to get 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3h9hhLZge
another teddy when she had asked me last night where Mr Teddy had gone 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZJw0TjSVq
to."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2CM4nS1ao8
"This is bad," I said, 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hP6EOxvOH
leaning my elbows on the table and holding my head. "Whoever has the 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNslDceert
teddy, knew what must have been going on this whole time."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡolkYAfcYLa
"Ya, but who could have known?" Seungri asked. "It couldn't be Lee because all she knows is that the teddy has gone missing."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrIfB3yCcAQ
"Maybe Sam has it," said Mike.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD42BDm8dKk
We all turned to look at Mike with grim looks on our faces.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXVM60IhMx
"Sam?" I wondered for a 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyAS2bHtzS5
little while. "Why would Sam have the teddy? And if she did, how could 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxchZHr114
she have swapped it with the other one?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcyHYfqEQn
"Okay, wait," said TOP. 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzExsIycIy2
"This is all too confusing. Does Sam even have any idea or clue as to 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVGYID4Erhe
what's really going on in the first place?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLheayfOKE
"I doubt it," I said 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBImTtjWXuv
shaking my head. "If she knew what was going on she would have 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDBr9sYoXk
confronted me. And besides, she was also at the mall yesterday and would1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0q5Czgj16
have probably seen Jehan and I together. But she didn't."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS0XkZaqLHB
TOP and Seungri looked 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBPdke3z5zQ
at each other after I said that. What was up with them? The look they 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVeE9P4045
gave each other made me feel that something was up but I quickly brushed1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJL6WDv3TOX
it away.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyyN1YFlIKl
"I highly doubt it too,"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjuELCu0ccf
said Daniel. "If she knew Zoey was into some kind of serious trouble, 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0kXi6FPrJ
she would have asked us about it."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXsWXNmop2
"That's true," said 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq56rn6RUgQ
Mike. "Come to think of it, I don't think Sam has it. For her to swap 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyTPC57r6MF
the teddy, she would have bought it from somewhere."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOuuCEmxYHK
"And I checked out the 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8SxpgQmKV
shopping bags, Lee came with yesterday when she went shopping with Sam. 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmB7IE2hIy
There was no sign of a small teddy in any of them," said Christine.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXnykmBMvw7
"She must have bought it when she was with G-Dragon," I said.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4nar1eg8r
"No, I highly doubt it,"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2AELH69rH
said TOP. "There are some dedicated fans who followed those two 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ36bgfBJ7Tz
yesterday, describing which store they went to and taking pictures. They1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAuaWy8AdTB
said nothing about them entering a toy store."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMo079JoSP3
"Now that's what I call a dead end," said Daniel.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZpqGNAUbFw
"Fine, so Lee and Sam have been cancelled on the list," said Seungri. "Who else could have swapped the teddies?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcl3ZomVIiX
"Collins?" Mike asked.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDsga1Wjcp4
"Ha! No way," I said, almost laughing in a such a serious situation. "How could he have known about Jehan and the diamonds?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ahmvxZgh0
"Mmmm, good point," said Seungri. "He's been really busy these past few days."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡewl8in0HlW
"But who knows? Maybe he1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0By1IaPtk
has been spying on me this whole time and I haven't noticed. He 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP4OeLq8XYO
considers me the black sheep that has to be kept an eye on at all 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZTfyGK50x
times."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTtxSjK1jeP
"You're definitely the black sheep, Zoey," said Mike.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ92uXp5CqtU
"Hey! May I remind you, I'm not the only one here who gets into trouble here."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6yeBBJy8d
"Okay, guys, focus," said TOP. "What makes you think Collins might have been the one who swapped the teddies?"1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMFguwG3tX
Daniel suddenly snapped his fingers. "I remember now. Yesterday when he came back with Sam, something happened."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsYhEyFZ17w
"Wait. Collins was with Sam?" I asked.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3m3akOiSsz
"He was the one who went1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrqKsaS0l8J
to pick her up from the mall," Daniel answered. "Back to what I was 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIBoTt2jJd
saying, Collins had something delivered to him at the hotel. He even 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIn5s2ZBDz
went to get it himself from the delivery man who was coming up the 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJ43k994hY
elevator."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSaNVvimEk9
"What was it?" We all asked Daniel, looking at him anxiously.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZ1EqftzgF
"It was a small box. And if you ask me, it was kind of like the one Jehan had sent that teddy bear in."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXrCAnXUMl
"Gosh, it's been Collins this whole time," said Christine.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuBszZ7Zesm
"I couldn't be too sure," I said. "But after what Daniel has said, I don't know what to believe."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6Vabq8DT1
"We really have to go," said Seungri. "We can't stay here."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfhzdgCoDq
"You're right," I said 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ294LqZ5IAW
as I stood up from the seat taking my purse. "I've to search for that 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUswm105fUz
teddy if I want to make it out alive tomorrow."1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52UA2NdYx7
"Wait, we can't leave all this here," said Christine, taking what was left of the teddy bear in her hands.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7riI6mAvUP
We all walked out of the1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWUBzHwddeu
café, hopping no one had heard our conversation. There were a few 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCugZZoBUR5
people in the café and I highly doubt if they really heard anything.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHj46sDHHWu
While I was in the car 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbzj6Hy29mV
with Seungri driving and the others in the other car behind us, I was so1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5nmTJZS4gI
troubled about the missing teddy. I couldn't help thinking that Collins1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzxXAmxolPG
is involved. But that didn't make any sense. As much as I wanted to 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJl88RriGrx
believe that Collins could have swapped the teddies, I shook my head at 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡssDFtSrm7e
the thought of it. Maybe it really wasn't Collins.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhczW3LLRgQ
If it isn't him, then 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlfs6NSDyvs
who? It couldn't be Lee because she had the teddy with her the whole 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEdsb9meTPy
time and she couldn't buy another teddy for no reason. And I couldn't 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2JVobd2OhZ
picture Sam doing anything like that either because I had never seen her1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Csz0wFCXG
near that teddy after Jehan sent it to us that day.1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDnASHHPiRA
What if I had the wrong 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0NSQyWIEu
teddy the whole time and I had never known till now? All this was too 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOXLmT4cGni
confusing. Who swapped the teddies? And when did the swapping ever take 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1HgpNq8Hb9
place without any of us noticing in the first place?1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhftVPtWtYS
I hope I could be able 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjvHnUpzYoH
to find the teddy soon. Jehan might threaten to kill me, but I was 1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNN6W2hApF8
pretty sure he would try to hurt the others too. And I wouldn't let that1052Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPRAc6CvoYm
happen.
