I poured myself a cup of orange juice as I looked at Christine who sat across from me at the table, having a bite of her toast. I looked at her and realised that she seemed more vibrant today. Was it because of the extra sleep we had yesterday?749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhq7Qc2Zm49
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmixwu3Qt4j
I heard footsteps coming into the lounge and I turned to see Zoey approaching the table.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9dX398J0vv
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHz0ip86v8
"Morning, girls," she said as she drew out a chair next to mine and sat down with a bright smile on her face.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKnrWFqOGa
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUtvLNZhUnm
"Morning," Christine and I answered at the same time.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VdIWaWyW4
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ34ReI70d7e
"You ladies look very bright this morning," she said as she took a plate and placed it in front of her.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZ5sUEeEsi
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaC6knMTtB8
"So do you," said Christine as she took another bite out of her french toast.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufmn5P7dev
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4UUE5wTXsO
"I guess the sleep we had really worked wonders," I said.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtIL5KOgNYE
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcUntuZ2tF
"Really?" Zoey asked as she looked at me and held her cheeks with her fingers as though she was massaging them. "Do I look like extra extra pretty?"749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡboDVkogKGg
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2aaH6Mb7jy
I smiled at her. "You've always looked pretty, Zoey."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaKepuGtZjE
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuWuOGm9rCN
"Morning, people," said Mike as both him and Daniel appeared and came straight for the table.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQKyEl6gq4
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4F8gs6Yu1
"Morning," we answered him. I gave Daniel, a bright smile. He smiled back.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxeMdOlt8fJ
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55kGhsa1Jq
"What's with Zoey feeling like she's all pretty?" Mike asked as he took a seat right next to Christine and Daniel sat right next to Zoey.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vg6EdxV5V
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZJf6vcmt8
"Can't you see that I'm glowing?" Zoey asked as she beamed at Mike. "Sam says the extra sleep we had must have helped."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1a4Yi3l3ux
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgdyqg5Q59
"Enough sleep is good for the body," said Daniel as he took the jug of orange juice.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCc6neHINx
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7eDQU2svlv
"Are we going to meet with the others today and finish up on the song?" Mike asked as he looked at me.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0W3eIhRoD
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsA1dE03MdT
"I haven't communicated with either of the two groups yet," I said.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6OCtMJ5ry
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQw3Ye6Ed1
"Mmm..., funny," said Zoey as she lifted her toast and looked at it like she was observing it. "I haven't been on my phone since last night."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqyAgHvIEB
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmBF7ZsErB
"Really, that's all you can think about?" Christine asked.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr72CTfqT6T
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxakMTVzE9
"Well..., I guess we were all tired and needed a break. Besides, last night was quite fun."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ919g2K86o
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgkuyt7v3B4
"Tell me about it," said Daniel as he held a slice of toast and took a bite.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMlmFJPaMF
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQfY1qls0v
After we went to catch up on sleep yesterday afternoon, we woke up around 7PM and we all met in the lounge where we ended up playing board games with Lee. Before supper, Collins arrived and joined in on the fun and we told him about our progress on the new song. After supper, we all sat down to watch the Korean drama series, "Boys Over Flowers." We went to bed an hour early before our usual bedtime.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJxsvpqooeK
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpZU3ZlmLBU
"We should have more sleeping hours, don't you think?" Mike asked.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc2euWNzs0q
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ovGgqgZH1
"With what we are working on right now, I doubt it," I said. "Maybe after we finally head back home."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXLT6TQDxJY
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCzdtNPYot
"This album is going to kill us," said Zoey as she leaned her head back and looked up at the ceiling in frustration.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV1iyjjbpn7
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMEn3BsiJa
"You have to check up on these guys and ask if we're going to meet," said Christine as she looked at me.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQowjazK7na
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgD104nX0eN
"After breakfast," I said. I took a sip of my juice.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Vke5eattH
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4rk7CqfFc
As we continued to have our breakfast and talked about the snakes and ladders game we had yesterday, Lee and Collins came into the lounge. Lee was taking down something on her tablet while Collins talked to her, almost like he was giving her instructions. I couldn't hear what he was saying because he talked in a low tone and Zoey at the same time was the one talking at the table.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXg005Plgk
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMkzFiJu0q
"All I am saying is," she said, "if Daniel wasn't so lucky, I would have won that game."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSd5VoGTlQb
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcPhVgQxfaB
"Too bad you got eaten by the snake towards the end," said Daniel as he smiled at Zoey.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6RFs9gdFf
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjXALPqRipj
"Sometimes I think you cheat."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMIBM6G4WC
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4aqNSVaxQv
"Cheating in snakes and ladders is almost impossible," said Christine as I saw her shrug her shoulders. "That's if you have the super power to row the dice to the number that's most suitable."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Kl7g459ky
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj6xY5iCMro
"Morning," said Collins as he and Lee came towards us. "I see Zoey still hasn't gotten over that snakes and ladders game."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDPrtTnP05
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDqbGaV4Go
Zoey looked down at her empty plate, not daring to look up at Collins. "Not really," she said.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa2qfjko01J
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiURSc6IX9a
"Will all of BTW be meeting today to continue working on the song?" Collins asked as he looked at me.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxAm5AApqam
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMFpqtI1sFq
"I have to communicate with them and see if it's possible," I answered.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZHBYA8m6C6
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bnlxqAIcU
"Well, I sure hope so. I told Yang Hyun-suk that you already started. He wants to hear it tomorrow, so I really hope you do make progress."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTQEPWnpZn
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHiTS3ghbY
"I better go give them a call, then."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyd9Oo56LcT
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zUlufAVqr
I drew my chair back and left the table. I later found myself back in the room I shared with Zoey. I went straight for my phone that was beside the bed lamp. It felt like it had stayed there for a very long time because I barely touched it last night.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUUd4c0xhsD
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGN7eZL0EQK
I checked my lock screen and found no messages whatsoever. Maybe its because I hadn't turned the wifi on on my phone. After I unlocked it and switched on the wifi, notifications came flooding in almost at the same time most of them from social networks like Instagram and Twitter. I ignored them all as I went on my WhatsApp to check if there were any messages on the BTW chat group. But nothing.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf1cQRHvy7R
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4lhDCETHA
"Strange," I muttered to myself as I sat on my bed. I decided to leave a message, but that wasn't going to be enough.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEh9mb4oHAW
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmZdE9Tq9h
I decided to make a call to one of the BlackPink members. Jennie was the first member on my contact list so I called her.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTuLGGgSPC9
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVw6pguH2hX
I put my phone to my ear. Her phone rang but she wasn't picking up. I waited until the voicemail came up and I cut the call right away. Maybe she was still asleep or she wasn't so close to the phone. I called again and still her phone went straight to voicemail.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlpwgwrOTQ
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZFcPCzXIp
I called Jisoo next, and just like Jennie's phone, it went straight to voicemail. Something didn't feel right. Why were they both not answering their phones?749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx70PelPdvO
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ89bkQEm4nk
I went on ahead to call Seunghoon and this time, I prayed that his phone wasn't going to act like the others. Upon the third ring, he answered.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3tZERNqeT8
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOybLwsKDl
"Hello?" Seunghoon answered. He sounded sleepy.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDd9fHU2l56
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnTbyZnrOUW
"Seunghoon? Hey, are you still asleep?" I asked.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZIcJl6ebka
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRE1WXJQ9Ay
"Sam?" he sounded surprised and more awake. "Oh, I didn't notice it was you."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡinTdT0dCxT
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzdJofu3AJY
"Are you guys coming to meet us here at the hotel? We have a song to work on, remember?"749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡch81ol6bdr
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡztOHnsOrnx
"Oh, oh, ya, we do..., ummm, eish.....," I heard him mutter something in Korean. "You said we can meet either today or tomorrow, right?"749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4WXa075CzB
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtnjAp1hQA
"Umm...," I raised an eyebrow. Something was definitely not right at the moment. "Yes, I did. That's why I called to see if you guys are up it."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWCOyudQkhk
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRkFkXeql73
"Oh, umm, let me ask if these guys are up for it." I heard movement, like someone was pushing away the sheets to try and get out of bed. "I'll call you right back."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJsAgrytNRT
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxdin0HSMa
"Ya, sure."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEBPu8KxQ6v
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJvYW6cSDh8
Seunghoon cut the call and I couldn't help but wonder. Maybe the others weren't up for meeting today. It was for the best to have it cancelled.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5IS33eScuv
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgYVjj0QWBJ
The door to the room flew open and Zoey came in.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhRduiskXE0
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ548ayNg5Q5
"Anything?" Zoey asked.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgVWTpHu6O
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvrstwTT71
"Couldn't reach Jennie or Jisoo," I answered. "But I did reach Seunghoon and he will get back to me as soon as he talks to the others."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMXRNh2f7a
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKtU0xaSO1C
"Okay, well, we can wait."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYUhfi2PVo
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtp1xQpekYK
"Maybe we should cancel and meet tomorrow. Seunghoon was still asleep when I called."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0F0VV3KHj
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXOdLrOG2me
"We could, but Yang Hyun-suk wants to hear the song tomorrow."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFya3lNYwW
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIf5dMRtuw7
"We can tell Collins to tell him that he will have to wait a little longer."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwXduZhTwE
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRMBveoWaCq
"Geez, this is Yang Hyun-suk we're talking about. He wouldn't like taking orders from a missy like you."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGtmG0UdN2
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3xJruZ29I
I shrugged my shoulders. "It's just a suggestion, not an order."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVNyytpaRX
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLN4eO5eR8
"Ooh, you know what I mean," she said irritatingly.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡna6lpLKM8r
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5nN0rjNxW9
"We can't work on the song without them."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ33EJIMVlT4
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡESpzahXXF4
"True, but you started to work on the song way before we all met yesterday. You're a good songwriter after all."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2uJOBfzorZ
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuzMCbnDXv9
"I hope we won't have to write the songs of the entire album ourselves. We will need to bring out some songwriters. We don't really have much time."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiv9zJnCQFa
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAePiZKhfVr
"Huh, funny. Collins was talking about it with Lee just now. You two seem to think alike."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADSYNLFKjQ
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9nzU7qVbNO
"Yay, we will be working on one song," I said with less enthusiasm.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBFAMk8vKO
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa2lTcT6gmD
"Then get your guitar and notebook."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15txgK7L8J
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡosJ8qTLnfI
"May you help me with my guitar?" I asked. "It's in the closet."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvtKQkMyW2
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDhleVNuLkt
"Really? Why do I get to carry the heavy stuff for you?"749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAzdxwbq6YD
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZpdddR0eE
"I never let you carry any of my heavy stuff. And besides, the guitar isn't so heavy."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwNK8U2Ysw
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpjNczaDEfD
"Whatever," Zoey rolled her eyes at me as she went to the closet to get it. I stretched out over my bed to get my notebook in one of the drawers on the other side of the bed.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDAXtf7cDx
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpseW6bJt89
Zoey and I soon left the room, Zoey with my guitar and me, with my phone and notebook. I expected Seunghoon to have called back by now but he hadn't. Strange.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3atyfScB3A
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaDZlZOeAsD
"Aah, it's good to see that you are much more serious than I thought about the song," said Collins as we entered the lounge.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnEwfJ5pKJf
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfItqKNPkNZ
"Of course we are," said Zoey as she smiled at Collins seated in the lounge. My brothers and Christine weren't by the dining table.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpN0iyExPDc
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtXDjULbzf
"And what about the others?" Lee asked. She was standing right in front of us with the tablet still in her hands. "Are they going to make it?"749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3jEwE85nGV
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjhqXAUyrAt
"Am yet to receive a reply," I answered.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdjej8d4CJM
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgoYiy8Xo4B
"I hope all goes to plan," said Collins as he stood up. "Yang Hyun-suk is really looking forward to hearing the song."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4FBLpCOKcC
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5pNzd9i1Vm
I gulped. Something told me it was best if the managers heard the song another day.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqTVIaMvdzQ
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6A8ngKJfo
"I actually think we need a little more time," I said to Collins.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJPQtkKNQd
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMmurxg7LO
"Really?" he raised his eyebrow at me.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWl2GsUvQUp
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj3UAryQlcG
I felt Zoey look at me. She knew what I was doing. I had no other choice but to stall.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctph8U3kVg
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDFwJPb6ew
"Yes, really," I answered.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMu5ruK7DVu
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5jNNSB1cwL
"Whatever reason you have, fine. But you will have to finish the song because tomorrow we will meet other songwriters and composers for the album. But we will still need that song from you."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCf14FYB1U
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJe741BlECa
I nodded my head. "It will be a great song, trust me."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOTn0xVJgb9
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr70HlVHqX4
Collins smiled at Zoey and I, then left the lounge heading for the elevator. It looked like he was going out as always.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTotwqdyAIe
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡphMu1KsnPx
"Well, that went well," said Zoey after we were sure that Collins had gone.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGrNUxXwxd
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Coo42cVFs
"What went well?" Lee asked.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5EsIZgEVB
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1QY8uYu4s
"Nothing, nothing," said Zoey as she went ahead to put the guitar on the nearest couch and smiled at Lee.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAByEPrDjX2
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCv0PRVApCF
I knew Lee was going to stare at me to get an answer, so, I avoided her gaze by looking at my phone. Still nothing from Seunghoon. I debated on whether to give him another call.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzPFC3pFwR
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdDsQuUtSA
I heard one of the doors open and shut in the hall followed by Christine's voice singing to a song by Maroon 5: "She will be loved" until she entered the lounge.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDfZh4Pklj
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUV0AP9tLob
"Any news from the others yet?" she asked as she stood beside me.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKL1ab01XbX
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBYFzz2Gg3V
I shook my head. "I can't reach BlackPink and Seunghoon said he would inform me soon if he and the rest are going to make it."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCFvc116jf
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHnQTYDI2YU
"Bummer," she said as she went over to sit on the couch. Zoey soon joined her.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2KHvISyiL
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrE6H4TQZTd
"Now I see why you don't want the managers hearing the song tomorrow," said Lee. "You're not sure if these guys are going to show."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqd1W6sFsix
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS9g92duQxW
"I thought we agreed that we were all going to rest and then meet up," said Christine.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡheS54JbxxF
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05OnxlAECq
"The sad part was I suggested we meet either today or tomorrow," I said.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXI7hDROHx
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQ1E1Pe2DD
"I think I was the one who suggested that," said Lee as she winced.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs9zZ47LlMA
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ514ieedFMv
"Judging by Sam's phone that should have rang minutes ago, we're likely to meet tomorrow," said Zoey.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡadnolnavrS
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6IYX2r4jUg
She was right. I looked at my phone and I felt like I should have just left it behind in my room. Seunghoon might call to tell me that they weren't going to make it. Jisoo or Jennie would find my missed calls and call me back to say the same thing.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvUQt7A8OK
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfD6wN3Cdxj
"Ya, you're right," I said as I slumped my shoulders and lowered my phone. I sighed.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnfHC6HcXbK
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFLyrJRPzlk
"If these guys are taking a day off, don't you think we should as well?" Zoey asked.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5SFJdz73w
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuH1Y8RPePL
"No!" Christine, Lee and I said at the same time.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡndShiLl5AW
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4GhkQgTTQ
Zoey's face was one filled with disappointment. "I really wanted to go shopping."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8n0L3fj9xm
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡub97UMbFNo
"If they won't come, we will work on the song ourselves," I said. "I'll just text them-"749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU3gHnMk7fc
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnAw0sjunF
The phone beeps in my hand. I looked at it and I found a message from Seunghoon. I read the message saying that they won't be able to make it. I texted back and told him we would meet tomorrow.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpadZxWe7tp
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNYxqONQbXU
After pressing the send button, Lee asked, "was that Seunghoon?"749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxRPDmGRvJ
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ48kHcaW3D
"Yep, and he said they aren't going to make it."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdfEE4U4M9h
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvc6SKdCYP
"Well, you saw this coming," said Zoey.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0THNaCM2rY
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLECKolmGVy
"And you did well to stall the managers," said Lee. "That will give you some breathing space."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1na9EU2RDc
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBzs8mUW5x
"We better start working on the song," I said as I went over to the couch where my guitar lay and lifted it to create space to sit. "Where are Mike and Daniel?"749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOkVYz6sVd
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lQvmOBYPl
"I can go call them, they are in their room," said Lee.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjgwE3w4Sn
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYSPQv1LrzG
She didn't even have to leave the lounge as Mike and Daniel soon appeared.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTdyOTOrekX
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJxqeECrCw
"We're working on the song already?" Daniel asked. "Aren't we waiting for the others?"749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5PPzBQJDTN
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJRmuuEhlw
"They won't make it today," said Zoey as I sat down.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZoqvmGVn08
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNnZGlHKQZ
"Mmm..., how come?" Mike asked, sounding puzzled.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DAt3dAawV
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC6Efz5Onuy
"They wouldn't say, just that they can't make it, at least that's what Seunghoon told me on behalf of WINNER," I said. "I'm yet to hear from BlackPink."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQA3zwIt9Z
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjLQu7PYcj
"Bummer," said Daniel as he came to sit right beside me.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn3TXBW6RkD
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPD5ywvsOWF
"Not to worry, we can still make progress without them. Shall we begin?"749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAIcnLkVyDH
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs190fdtP9S
Mike sat opposite Daniel and I. We first did a recap of the song and continued working on the first verse since that was where we left off. Without the others it was kind of difficult since Mino and Seungyoon came up with great lyrics for the first verse. We had to go with the flow though and it didn't seem so bad.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJVgOViAEA

We were still on the first verse, checking out sentences and debating whether one word sounded better than the other when my phone rang. It laid on the armrest of the couch. I checked who was calling and rolled my eyes.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyW9Z0QybiW
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQIOZgya9Q
"Who's calling, Sam?" Daniel asked.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6HNqf0dl7y
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDcffDP7PU3
"I'll tell you," said Zoey, "it's G-Dragon. If it's not, then it's probably someone who's just as annoying as he is."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmgtrKLFzfG
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7Ny7IhJxC
"It's him, alright," I said as I took the phone and picked up the call. "Hey, GD."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaLfYmEJ65u
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVp7q4N037n
"Hi, I'm in the elevator right now coming to your floor. I'll be there in like 30 seconds."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41I70wvl7K
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhn2EE6M5EB
"Wait, you're....," the line went dead. I stared at the phone.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzov27dpdM3
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMuxPYZ70Jl
"What is it?" Christine asked.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtS7vC6TMV
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MjBqn2TRi
We heard the sound of the elevator doors on our floor announcing the arrival of our visitor.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0G6G4vLAa
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDrVpniJz7
"He's here," I said.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYLsM00ccPN
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KBJydLmqx
Lee who sat at the dining table, working, asked, "how come we were never informed at the reception of his arrival?"749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA266HmSfj6
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9J3cwQSsLZ
"It's because I told them not to," came G-Dragon as he appeared in the lounge.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgQ71GpQeO
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMLPmcqrr9
We turned to look at him. Somehow, I wasn't surprised that he was here.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPA2F9yCdD
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98xgSFeiO3
"Hello, everyone," he greeted as he came to where the five of us, sat.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKsUxPtadb
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdAibIsZfnO
Four of us, including Lee, replied to his greeting except Zoey who said, "how come you're here?"749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN0afZ7q9Ui
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsbQgPF5w7
"What's wrong with me being here?" he asked as he shrugged his shoulders.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgcnNFhBLe
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPJVnFYqXS
"For someone who went partying last night, you seem pretty sober."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPSpyJO3tn
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfMcDbL0E9
"Oh.., how did the party go anyway?" Christine asked.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJAbYUpFO8q
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIfG4PTeQ55
"It was great," he said with a happy grin.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNz3HVeQNCy
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9LvyOnATYa
"Zoey has a point, though," said Mike. "For someone who had a great time at the party, you seem pretty sober and...," he snapped his fingers as he tried to think of a word.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSHHvZezrQ
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0SfEE7GMwa
"Normal?" Daniel suggested. Though he was only joking.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzasJ2Jeax
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCe7ODujWa
"Wait, you think I'm not normal?" G-Dragon asked. He almost looked offended.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCgTjUEl3K
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLq9oe2TFka
"Nah, that's not the word, Daniel," said Mike. "It doesn't matter anyway."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEmHivej5WQ
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡriGBgs9euA
I looked over at Mike and he had a small smirk on his face that was almost unnoticeable to everyone else. I found Daniel also staring at his brother and then he looked at me. The two of us knew he meant what Daniel said.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEsObBAMhL
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg7H7p72yzX
"We had a blast yesterday," said G-Dragon as he went over to join Mike on the couch. "I thought you checked the photos on Instagram."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc1KxqZrpC6
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnoVmSLArRg
"Did you just say 'we?'" I asked as I raised my eyebrow at him.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxwd9AlwPe
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpibjO7SzUi
"What?" he asked as if he hadn't heard my question. I felt like he did.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwpEpzUWUD
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1XdxicOKKg
"You said 'we.' Who else were you with?"749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ItrivG2BL
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHpsDOA3c6O
"Oh.., just friends, very close..., very good friends," he answered as he nodded his head.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqh1FVK3JWR
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQfG1WDJvY
"Okay," I said as I slowly nodded back. "I'm glad you had fun."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqw4888rOY2
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgKDTHl6ksZ
"You guys should have come. It was amazing."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLVVwYSYrAx
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡheKpFA1cTZ
"Too late for that now, isn't it?" Christine asked.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMg1OpML5Z
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjElySWzCcN
"Yep, too late. But you could still see the pics of how much fun we had."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTPJxS61d8
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL6OHDoRUTF
"I bet there was plenty of booze too," said Zoey.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfyq6PpuFha
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMMR4kL3VOR
"Plenty," said G-Dragon with a smile.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJHZHLVeUjO
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxSrJ4VmOs
I couldn't help but feel something strange with what G-Dragon said a few sentences ago. Maybe I was just imagining things. Any who....749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDHvA88os4
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWArnP6MfB
"We can check the pics later," I said. "We have a song to write."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqYpR8mL5pJ
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wwRjEBp98
"The others aren't here yet?" G-Dragon asked. "How can you work on the song without them?"749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbaU50STDa9
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg0h3TsACha
"Seunghoon called to tell me they weren't going to make it. I haven't heard anything from BlackPink but I doubt they will come, so I called off the meeting and we are working on it instead."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVo63bafkM
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIAMJ7RYd2v
"Oh. I think that's fair considering that they must be tired from the party."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Ghandr8Tu
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM1YM79zkxR
I looked at G-Dragon, and so did the rest of the Toxins.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4poBMrkOLk
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxhdf8l7Eo
"They were with you at the party?" Daniel asked.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5JxqwL7Uv
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0nCmHFWaoe
"Huh....?" G-Dragon now looked like the confused one. "I thought you knew."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4Mh8nudSt
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBVbbr3Jhw
"How would we know when we were resting yesterday and we were completely off social media?" Christine asked.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi19Yd7AK1s
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwKneE7fgZf
G-Dragon shrugged his shoulders. He left our floor early yesterday, so he had no idea that we all agreed to rest and continue working on the song later. Can't blame him for that.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMhjHLFQeL
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6L8jrWIYs
"You dragged them to the party, didn't you?" Zoey asked as she pointed a finger at him. "You're such a manipulator!"749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhyU7CTYuol
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVlstXUV6Fp
"I didn't convince them, I swear," he said as he raised his hands in surrender. But then he looked at me and lowered them. "Okay..., maybe a little."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW4XoHfS96T
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxKuHpU5cH
"I knew it!" Zoey said with a look on her face.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5dJXVtCdK
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ85Auf55Hl1
"But ninety percent of the whole convincing thing was on the other guy."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMNypmX3yI
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2OBub5Muqn
"The other guy?" Mike asked as he raised his eyebrows.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL3DY2f1HYP
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpz2vtaxYWI
"Who's the other guy?" Christine asked.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGTvRv4wcVF
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ00TzBkKlQt
I knew there was something fishy about G-Dragon's earlier statements. He didn't just go and party with "just" close friends.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjqhApNznR
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡngNYfbSC9l
"Tell us," Zoey demanded when G-Dragon didn't speak.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8h0J5Up4aw
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVEQoI6zgq
We looked at him as he also stared back at each one of us. The look in his eyes made me realise that he didn't want to talk for fear of what might happen next.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmWCJnVIxFh
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS18sOunQzH
"Looks like you lost your tongue, GD," said Daniel. "Please tell us who you were with. I don't think it's that much of a big deal."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2oyB9j0nf
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6mQWqohz2
G-Dragon squeezed his eyes shut in fright. And just like that, we knew it was a big deal.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8Xug5dpUY
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhsxsw9zzfg
"Goodness, just tell us, GD," I said. "We have a song to work on and you're just wasting our time."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWo858ul2xX
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXlDcO9giw
"It was a mistake coming here," said G-Dragon as he nervously stood up from the couch. "I better get going. Sorry for disturbing you."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBH85PVDSrl
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8rfQWGoT6J
All five of us stood up and surrounded him. It was five against one and he knew he couldn't stand a chance. We came closer, making it tight for him to leave.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfxRguCGsxQ
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdgtcDDAc4w
"GD, sit down, please," I instructed him and he did.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrcw28KqAq
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDUFl2Rq1B
"Now," said Zoey as she cracked her knuckles. "You're going to answer our questions. You don't want to receive these babies," she gestured to her fists, "on your face."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsiPbgRI3vj
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGygE5d5GZd
"Okay, okay," G-Dragon surrendered. "I'll tell you."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeD41RrX9Hd
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9iDypsZqD4
"First question," said Christine with her arms folded. "Who were you with downstairs when you left our floor yesterday?"749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4efZOpUEHe
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ45xT1CvoSU
G-Dragon gulped as he looked at us. "You won't like the answer I am about to give you. You will kill me before I even leave this place."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHh4KCR32Cw
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomYPwFAGAk
"We will make sure to bury you in a lovely place, promise," said Mike. "Now, spill."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa87bImFXb3
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1K3srOUHhh
G-Dragon sat upright and cleared his throat. "When I came out of the elevator, I saw..., I saw this guy. He recognised me immediately and said he was a big fan..., and so....., we talked for a while. We got along well...., and then that's when the others came..."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW6yzdpUwYO
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BRnop6raM
"GD, we don't want to hear how you all met," I said, "we want a name. Who is the guy?"749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡekfRS0rKlW
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9Wn3dKyUm
"It's..., it's..., Johnny," said G-Dragon. He immediately looked down at the floor.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGy3AVV0zJ
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSS60x7kV8
"Johnny Jerkins!" the five of us said at the same time.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjgr6KoYpAl
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS9DvyApwoQ
"Yes," G-Dragon as he slowly nodded his head, still facing downwards.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJkuQ5e0q6v
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4emNH8OvfB
Zoey fell onto the couch next to G-Dragon like she was about to pass out, her hand on her forehead.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8pnZBIW4dc
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0dfDt0as5
"I can't believe it" she said.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoicK5suQvg
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcv11HQuyy2
"That explains everything," I said, as I looked at a certain part of the wall above the couch, my mind far off.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhWU9HkAuTV
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOO5FUGmsaI
"No wonder they couldn't make it," said Daniel.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXDYqeYIxQh
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJKmJFPbf8Q
"They didn't just go to the party, they were hanging out with Johnny," said Mike.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡavfJGAlCI0
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKDb0EvknP
"Ya...., you won't like what I am about to show you," said Lee behind us.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3fzo5VdRa6
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgrMTGWUC4
We all turned to look at Lee as she approached with a tablet in her hands. She went to sit on the couch I had been sitting on with Daniel. I went to sit next to her, Christine on her other side. Mike and Daniel went over to stand at the back of the couch so as to see more clearly on the tablet.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz2oy7JyXc2
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡotWmM542sb
She was on Instagram and she had gone on one of G-Dragon's fan pages. One of the first photos we saw of last night was a picture of him and Johnny staring at the camera and smiling. They had hands over each other's shoulders like they were best buddies.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZEQMGLtjP7
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ua3LOZdU3
It was definitely Johnny Jerkins alright. His white blonde hair cropped to the sides and a strand of it falling above his right blue eye. He was almost G-Dragon's height and he had on a white shirt and brown khaki shorts. I noticed their surrounding and I couldn't help but ask:749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡboNiqBzr8W
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQWmsFdkKaE
"You guys had a party on a boat?" I looked at G-Dragon.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv7h1ofS8cW
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7QRrkan9wZ
"What! A cruise party!" Zoey yelled as she sat up quickly. She looked like she had woken from her slumber as she went to stand alongside my two brothers.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqwfrxRcRF
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf79gt9HNHI
Lee continued to scroll down the page and more pictures came up. This time, there were some of BlackPink and WINNER having a good time with Johnny and G-Dragon. There were other pictures with fans who wanted to take pics with the K-Pop superstars.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3FtRwWzLl
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZnQSJhMqO
"You guys had such a good time," said Zoey. "I wish I came."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn1jk2QPoe0
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7MXVj7F5A
"You see, you guys should have tagged along," said G-Dragon.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ30DQIHEndV
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPdLw37quup
"And hang out with Johnny? Heck no!" Zoey detested.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKItgnPmVjS
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3esPKr4kO
"He seems pretty cool."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk1j4aHDkHG
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjpKLsMgisW
"That's because you only just met him," said Daniel.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjfTDESFNS
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcO86nrmhu
"You won't be hanging out with him more often, will you?" Christine asked.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJltmuOSOT4
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8TIZ6OwcZb
"Nah," G-Dragon denied. "I guess all that was just a one time thing."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyyXlbm355m
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6EYLAvp84C
"That's what they all say," said Zoey. I imagined her rolling her eyes when she said that.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkenGcGpUbg
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1yxwME2gUL
"And let's not forget, he's in this hotel," I said. "Avoiding him will be tricky."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsu5P8yMDF
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQhN6oxdmZ
"Don't you think maybe you guys are taking this thing a little too far?" G-Dragon asked.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfu5arTF3F4
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPwqdmfsZU
"What thing?" Christine asked. Her eyes were still fixed on the tablet as Lee continued to scroll.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrB79gj25qG
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHpZSx06d4
"This 'Johnny' thing?"749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb1etlaKOnJ
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1t92n9fbj
I looked up from the tablet at G-Dragon and I knew I wasn't the only one.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdIHuYLqCDh
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNav4Hah60F
"Why would we?" I asked.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnijxBaVjEW
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZNrotZuk9
"You talk about him as if he's your worst enemy."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPI2iZeUHW
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ30ca9BDCgv
"Look, we don't hate people, well, maybe some," said Mike. "It's just that some people aren't worth hanging out with."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBcNyne4tog
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs73bbsLKZa
"Because of his actions back at school? Please, that was a long time ago."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbZ2EhkIaY
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyj2cbgmfo3
"You're right," said Zoey. "It was a long time ago, but we would rather keep our distance. Some people are just toxic, you know?"749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKO9ekxyLjO
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡviyXanPPxO
"How ironic," said G-Dragon as he stood up from the couch.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVU4De6cHh
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8IAbhZC7L
"Leaving already?" Lee asked.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSiizVgcqHY
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMuF5D5GMCJ
"Ya, I really should. Just came to check up on the progress with the song."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡze5ZZD5jGY
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfe9DxCa1VT
G-Dragon didn't seem like himself. I looked at him and this time I didn't give him a criticising look like I always do. I could tell he was upset if not sad.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFnQKooTdcl
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlPI2SWsze
"I'll escort you to the elevator," I said as I stood up from the couch.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfO5ehsjZUX
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡntLZUfWuAf
"Ok," he said and he turned to address the others, "I'll see you guys later."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8J5aq0jj9
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8lrTa0bqa
"Bye, GD," the rest replied at the same time. Their tone sounded low almost as if they didn't want to upset him any further.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx8yJwyXRPY
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIs11Vuv0Y5
G-Dragon made his way out of the lounge and I was right behind him.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfPkwG5YVMV
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFPd7pQgp6
"Well, you seem upset," I said to him when we were in the hall.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPMPeIxO7kH
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAiC3girg9Q
"No, I'm not," he said as he shrugged his shoulders.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0vc1z8qKP
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaEdkeD5vud
I held his shoulder and he stopped walking, his back still facing me.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQTpKWza5N
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSawebG0AoI
"I know when you're upset," I said as I dropped my hand. "I think the others know too."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwKhg40nupz
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGgU43fgUkk
He turned around to look at me. "I don't get you guys at all," he said.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpsiKDyf0qq
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡil1bxiK2IL
"What do you mean?" I folded my arms.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZ1k7AtDy6
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3s2XgtA7h
"I mean, you guys are the nicest and coolest people I have ever met and I never thought you would be so spiteful about someone. You weren't all like this when you were dealing with Jehan...., well, maybe Zoey, but even she wasn't so extreme."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc2CjJgvpx8
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ97jcSkQgdr
"We aren't perfect, you know? We have our emotions too, whether good or bad."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6y6GYxccLR
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDm9mOjzmm
"But why hate on Johnny so much?"749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9goB8oBQe2
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzuMLua00Ys
I shook my head. "We don't hate him. We do hate what he did to us in the past, but we don't actually hate him."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlEJZMlLz48
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9e9EDdQ61
"Really?"749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlcw7n9dPG4
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdxso8FNAQN
"If we really did, we would have called him worse names than 'jerk' now, wouldn't we?"749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb1I7rjF76B
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4iQyh58uw
G-Dragon bit his lip and he didn't have to admit I was right. "Then why can't you come to peace with him?" he asked. "You don't even want to cross paths with him, like ever."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXftMag3UPe
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnRduYPIbG
I sighed as I dropped my arms. "Some people aren't worth mingling around with, Jiyong."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKZjgSRbvC
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL6pdaCCT4z
"Is there something you aren't telling me?" He raised his eyebrow at me and took a step closer.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZdQFnaViR
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7nf1xYjyXS
I shrugged my shoulders. "Kind of," I answered. "You're yet to know everything in due time."749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVqEZdVSlqC
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoXh98yshIT
G-Dragon slowly nodded his head. I could tell that he understood and is willing to wait. But for how long is the million dollar question.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2dzGefbtG
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhX1b798bA9
"Okay, I'll see you around, then," said G-Dragon as he managed to smile.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMPHSgGUd7
749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaEtFRUURnL

"Aren't you guys going to continue working on the song?" Lee asked at the dining area. We had been quiet for what felt like forever.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡapfCtfhLOS

The five of us all looked at each other. It was surprising we wanted something sweet to boost our spirits. We needed some fresh air too. We all turned to look at Lee who sighed. She needed a doughnut too.749Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ87lnpV7r1j
