“It’s just a sprain that will heal in a day or two,” said the handsome, male Korean doctor who wore a causal blue golf shirt with white chinos and matching white canvas.

Before the doctor and Lee could turn around to leave the lounge, Daniel and I quickly left our spot at the entrance of the lounge and silently ran down the hall, and entered one of the rooms with the door slightly open to peak in the hall.

The five of us all started to talk at random, saying that we didn't know why she left and that we didn't do anything. A look of confusion soon over Collins and he soon raised his hand to indicate that we should all stop talking.371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeARKIJSB40

In ten minutes, we were already downstairs in the cars arranged for us. The five of us Toxins, Lee and Collins were in one car while the security detail were in two other cars behind us.

"I'm worried about GD," said Seungyoon. "Did he make it out of there in one piece?"371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGybG9C8k0j
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv8e6k39Vw7
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡanOOfkHYNn
"If anything happened to him, we would’ve known about it already," I said.371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrP7WdH4kc
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwu2HIovo2V
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8BaYUxjGUG
"True," said Lisa. "You don't mind if I try and call him, will you?"371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsYvV90JlJ4
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXGjLNMENt
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hzYmfpI4M
"I guess," I turned to look at Zoey who already had her head turned to look elsewhere. "Zoey is way more upset than we are, though."371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDke11iHW5W
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8QGoDbJlm6
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zVqensvIA

371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡssRCZ0DnVq
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmIUqJKyJc
Lisa pulled out her phone from her fancy blue purse and called G-Dragon. She even made sure to put the phone on loud speaker for everyone to hear.371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9RY2udP7Y
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzj0cmf5RDV
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6J1jzEPf4V
His phone on the other end started to ring. We all waited in silence for what felt like a minute when Zoey said:371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlH1VSqkv7F
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb1LjobBeAq
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡriGV5y4i9i
"Something must have happened to him. Why isn't he picking up?"371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFWT8j2UKU
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5w8qyWqCmp
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqBiQmTEOL
Then came a cracking sound and GD's voice came up, loud and clear:371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwPrf7OCyN
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4oRmiEfvI
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjtd8z0nOn

371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmLatruhwB
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6vC8brGSg
G-Dragon laughed a little. I couldn't help but feel there's something different with his voice.371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPekb7EFI8Y
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNKjdTlCFI
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhCDs9vs8pp
"I'm fine. Just trying to catch up on sleep. After what happened at the park, I went out somewhere with a friend to have fun."371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoY4sxbJZjy
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkfOWlxNBsz

371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARXHFwUPoG
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3uBBY8eTMT

371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnMDueKhhZ
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwtQntodnO

371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9QzVHo0gBt

Lisa quickly cut the call. Zoey suddenly burst out saying:371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMFwu40mVgk
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsYIgjtpoi
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG4DQhzyax9
"Wow, that's so typical of him. He even went to have fun with Johnny after the stunt he pulled?!"371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCqxuR9IscH
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAsRutRVkYR
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr1BdtJWO0N

371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6rQQwXchdl
There came a knock at the door. We told the person to come in. It's Lee, and she came in with someone: Bang Yong-guk.371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWyAeF9glb
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHJAnu4H7r
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq5FVebQfJe
"Yong-guk, you're here!" Zoey exclaimed as she shot up from her seat and went straight for him.371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWJDI7VWkA
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqiewsq21Gi
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKJ0zOantD
"Hey, Zoey," Yong-guk nervously greeted her, stepping back a little so that he wouldn't bump into her.371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGF6p5wQFRC
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡepJGTCFkjB
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGNbIRQdwv
"Well, you're rather jumpy today," said Lee as she looked at Zoey with an eyebrow raised.371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnn4ROlAWH9
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ltt2Qjm4B
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAzaMiGggrv
"You should've seen her when we were talking about G-Dragon just now," said Seungyoon. "She looked like she would punch someone."371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVqBh1FqPlz
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzk74l4FWc
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIfVt6lee1o
"Hi, Yong-guk," I said as I stood up from my seat and also approached. "For a second there I thought you weren't coming."371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUmbHtZAMBM
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH2alkY3bZh
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFuzOihNXGn

371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpSRrr6gqJ
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgTnIeoEfH0
I felt someone quickly rush up to me standing by my side. And in the process, pushing me a little. I held my ground so that I wouldn't find myself falling over.371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuI73fpbxhD
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvRwxOPt6fN
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2jtKW8KA1
"Hello," Seunghoon greeted Yong-guk in Korean. I raised an eyebrow as I realised that he had his arm around my neck. I didn't want to admit what I'm seeing, but it couldn't be helped. Was he trying to mark his territory when he didn't have one?371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY94b8Zref5
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlZqtTYzZX
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxusN9gxgf
Yong-guk greeted him back and by the look on his face, he didn’t seem intimidated by Seunghoon at all.371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0i9Fva831U
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYst6ukzZKH
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7QFcIXegoF
Everyone else came over to greet Yong-guk. Lee told us to settle down for the managers and the music producer assigned to help with our album will be arriving any time soon. We did likewise. And members from both Blackpink and WINNER couldn’t help but ask Bang Yong-guk some questions about the song.371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjIKYDpbjS8
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIu4LPw2nUb
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmbnOrY0xI

371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2QgT5u5SXW
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTzeVIFsSut
"I just want to ask how you were able to come up with your amazing songs," said Mino.371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkUollArgc
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWo5pxTWkC3
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvsdeyXSPcF
"One at a time, people," I told them. I sat in between Yong-guk and Seunghoon, and boy did it feel uncomfortable.371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWwcDATJ6CS
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1H8yrGnzv
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zrLdJpdEx
Yong-guk chuckled. "I don’t mind at all," he said.371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8xEjfXUJV
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qDidtAocF
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpWu4gKvqET
"You don’t have to worry about him," said Seunghoon as he leaned in a little closer on my shoulder. "He can take care of himself."371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQhYNMP0lP
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDIcwDsSsSO
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4W9lRYIw4
I rolled my eyes at him and he gave me that cute boyish smile. I couldn’t hold my laugh.371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQRXOciBpy
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4UAsak0fhb
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTf1vw7lQIb
"Do you've the track with you?" Lisa asked. "Maybe we can listen to it a little before the managers get here."371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW4KIRCIOFm
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqk996XvJD0
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKBkAO7Jj4
"Not when I’m around," said Lee who stood in the corner of the room. For a minute there we forgot that she is still around.371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5H4pdemiCu
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡppXYIA7ieQ
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42IvSKZGIb
"Oh, we didn’t know you were still around," said Rosé as she nervously chuckled.371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6RmkzpFqhM
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMB09oSYEUW
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCovSBoDR7F
"Well, I’ve been told to watch over you," said Lee. "You might do something funny like you were about to just now."371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvjvagN8my
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6zFZ4KzNtz
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWouPd7ETDN
"No we weren’t," said Zoey and Christine at the same time.371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYBfpEzwus
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDrfeYDdzoA
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHH1pJmwYqD
Lee gave them a look that made them stare at the floor. The managers better get here soon. I could tell just how anxious everyone is that they can’t wait to hear the song.371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbDLb9T8vsf
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE3DWb9klLq
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bvaw86wYr
"They will be here soon, so I don’t understand why you’re impatient," said Lee.371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMwiU3m8zWs
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoq59Nf1Iri
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0yk9PKGGU
"I agree," said Yong-guk. "Let’s all just wait."371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxaJRkYi5DM
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8fDflwVpv0
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡROU81zUzkW
"They better be," said Jinwoo. "My ears are just itching to listen."371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJu6HLfOi9
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3kMpmhncZz
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrYNwrEEowE
We didn’t have to wait any further as there came a knock at the door and Lee told whoever was there to come in. The two managers and a man who I think is the producer, walked into the room. We all stood up and bowed our heads.371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4En433wOp6
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd0gFjWy7BU
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdjIUWiPqpS
"Sit down everyone," Yang Hyun-suk instructed and we did likewise. "I see everyone is here. I’m also happy to welcome our visitor, Bang Yong-guk."371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvaEzcghlEq
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE6lngKT5Wj
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnqvHOMZ1sF
Bang Yong-guk stood up from his seat and bowed to the managers and the producer. He also thanked them for inviting him to the studio. Yang Hyun-suk also introduced the man who stood beside Collins as the producer who will help out with the album.371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO08CAgXXDd
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6bny57dUs
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvA5sgxQDpI
"Okay, without further ado, we can dive right to what we came here to do," said Yang Hyun-suk. He started to make his way to the console and the music booth.371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ697qxRPMxK
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLqF2VSB0aj
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1wHYbiS7z
When we stood up to follow the manager and the producer, I couldn’t help but stay still while the rest went on ahead. I didn’t even realise that Bang Yong-guk still stood beside me until he spoke.371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNrIlUpAVS
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkIcCvurVA
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0uIJaTf69
"Hey, you’re nervous?" he asked.371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡftpgYtEJfa
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA45UbtJXRo
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnEubPGeTTx
I turned to look at him, surprised that he’s beside me. "Kind of," I said. "What if its not-?"371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6JzgQ8mh3a
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhdBbVHstq
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh102PECcqU
He held my shoulders to turn me so I could look at him. I didn't expect him to be so close, and looking at him, straight on like this made me blush.371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUdu5kVZiNb
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryYZcPQOo6
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs629RC4IIC
"Don't you trust me, Sam?" he asked.371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhYfvlVnPAR
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4ISEouPAB
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmkmOqcy1v
I didn’t expect him to ask such a question and I am left speechless. I cleared my throat to say:371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6b507cPoM
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtKW6AU0Nqz
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVhMMZeuW0

371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7yLSyrFPl
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qudykU2FI
He smiled at me and dropped his hands from my shoulders. He quickly held my hand.371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdxfkPZ91n6
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWltyfJ91dA
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoPj2LqpHe
"Come on, let's go," he said as he dragged me along to join the others.371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvRLGMkWQpw
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShVIf4lAp7
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOSAHmknbG3
His warm hand around mine assured me that I shouldn't worry about what’s going to happen with the song. Even if the managers weren't going to like it, it's going to be okay.371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzojDNd3wb
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL15AhKJh35
371Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1u6vWctbJy
I found myself smiling at him. I couldn't have found any better way to calm my thoughts.
