Hanging out at Times 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvTpFlJCU7
Square was super duper fun yesterday. The positive reactions we got from1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2oOdn1ssLg
the fans sent us trending all over Twitter within hours and soon, 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpCHKuooWD
everyone got to know that BTW meant BlackPink, The Toxins and WINNER.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4oGPWyLB7
But that didn't matter. 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKvVE5CRD4Q
The three groups together with Lee and TOP had a ton of fun stuff to do 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRiODEm89S1
at Times Square soon after we had lunch. We first went to watch a movie 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovc4weEemy
on the largest screen in the world, which was amazing. Then we went and 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1U8t0iQTQZ
had fun at the "I Like Dalgi Children's Theme Park", meant for little 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcuUEzByztx
kids. But hey, who says grown ups can't have a little fun too? Don't 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB9HJk63vG6
worry, we weren't actually playing on the swings or anything. We 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOsLXqhH9Fc
actually played around with the adorable kids.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKckr1HLT6h
There were plenty of 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4T3sotdf9U
open outdoor spaces like the ecology park, a fountain and a rooftop 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVUI8Yel3f
garden that we visited. We even took group pictures and selfies with the1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3sgkde4UW8
beautiful nature around us. And we managed to get pictures with a few 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlnpxIWcAt3
fans too.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsLc6V9yNro
The time we were done 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnytdkZ9JKz
having fun at Times Square was in the evening and it was completely 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyehF0ZnIJq
unbelievable when we stepped out into the parking lot and found three 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TGDjzGBb7
black SUV cars, for each of the three groups waiting to pick us up. What1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPayieUzLMA
made the scene even more dramatic yet terrifying, was that our two 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUYzu5g4WOl
managers were there, waiting for us. They had received the message 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74NykpGwW5
through social media alright and they didn't look too happy that we had 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhsAxqvppQK
all met and decided to hang out. It was surprising to them that we had 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWm1ssVpWQS
all met "by coincidence." The rest of us never said a word about how 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6B2DKHEVSa
everything came to be. Especially with WINNER visiting The Toxins the 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbY85OH5Bx
previous day, of course.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4xl3M71M2
As much as the managers 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQWzS1hOsgj
kept their cool and didn't say a word afterwards meant they weren't 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Vt2vOQ9A4
really mad at all and we managed to drive away from Times Square without1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKVQkuPIrF
any complaints. I knew my plan would work but I also knew we were in 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdj1A9Unfqc
for a serious talk from our two managers after they take this all in.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Fn8DfNTSH
Right now, this very 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpSbaiFBjcv
morning, I was bending over, tying my shoelaces and wondering what they 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60s0aGGLYv
could possibly want to talk to the three groups about as we meet with 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJTS0kE9Lw
them. Collins told us a few minutes ago during breakfast that he and 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXQtIk5lFs
Yang Hyun-suk want the three groups to go to YG and talk. I hope it 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjVJSfUc2i
isn't that serious because yesterday, they didn't seem so mad at all. 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1BFOzLDZuz
But why was I so worried? I couldn't figure out what was bothering me 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNP3QtQAgd
and I just couldn't take it.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd3DjnbQUij
I stood up straight after tying my shoelaces and I noticed Zoey approach me as she came out of the bathroom.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbgCMl8KRDk
"Do you think they are mad?" Zoey asked as she stood a few feet away from me.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVg3Om8txW
"You're worried, aren't you?" I asked.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡClGsN6avYL
"Aren't you?" Zoey folded her arms.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjPCl949wO
I sighed. If Zoey could be as worried as I was, the rest of The Toxins were too.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITsYGPMfgm
"I am," I said. "It's pretty troublesome that they would want us all to meet at YG."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS3e1mYRYPH
"I thought you said your plan would work."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKDOnfnyzRO
"In some way, it did, because they would have been so furious at us, but they weren't."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGu8gwnuSOB
"Do you think they would want to talk about this BTW thing?"1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiui8IGLUQC
I felt like slapping my 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUGi2BhkiDp
forehead because I realised I was such a complete idiot. Of course. BTW.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrwU4HH4b87
Now that Zoey mentioned it, it all made sense. The managers would 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxBFCOgz3F
probably want to talk about BTW because as far as the three groups 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9aO7iNWeB
meeting "by coincidence" was concerned, they had completely brushed it 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMylsUDehu
off.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRllqJjDO6E
"Ya, you're right," I said. "They obviously want to talk about that."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7QLaOuIyoJ
"Do you think they would want to make it a real thing?" Zoey was getting anxious.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRgCnnIG03f
"I would hold that thought for a while if I were you and see what the managers have to say."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17frxxMmc1
Zoey raised an eyebrow at me. "You're worried that they wouldn't agree, aren't you?"1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6rmQN5bFdp
I shrugged. She read my 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL89CVYGend
mind really well. "I can't lie. I thought about it yesterday and now 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡftoMBx0TEc
that you bought up the BTW thing, I realise it's what's been bothering 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYuJd6kErgd
me the whole time."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOh5mitJrB
I sat down on my bed as 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaNUp7E9SJ4
my mind kept spinning around the issue. I shouldn't have told Zoey how I1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡawpxj8dpwW
felt about all this but I had to let it out somehow.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxP7wXPo2Wy
"You know, you should have given us a heads up about it, Sam," said Zoey as she also sat on her bed facing me.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6tfBqw7IWO
"Gosh, you really should1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7tu3QkWdP
have seen the looks on all of your faces when we were having fun 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXlwC0oSz9
yesterday. I just couldn't burst your bubble and tell you whats likely 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgodIPYm2JX
to happen to BTW. We all weren't going to enjoy ourselves when it really1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrfRDpU7mJK
mattered so I kept quiet. I for one even forgot about it too."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qeDhtIueA
"Ya, you're right not to have brought it up or I would've killed you."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡybUTkbXTYU
"Like you almost did to Mike?" I smirked.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8yzehFbFY
"Mike is annoying 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4ndlwN3PS
sometimes," said Zoey as she expressed her irritation with her hands as 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlyndeZ3cj2
though they were bear claws. "You could scratch his eyes out."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXyJd04VUD
"You've been planning to do that ever since we became best friends and he knew the essence of being annoying around you."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEmSBSO6Gee
"You're right. I should burn him instead."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQvEG9Mr3A
I laughed. "The drama between you two never gets old."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6GYFMbXIJN
"And what about the drama between you and Seunghoon?" Zoey's eyebrows were raised and she had a crooked smile on her face.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwfRn0QF3NN
"Don't even go there," I warned as I pointed a finger at her.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUn9ZYCVGp5
"Sorry, but just so you 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcwoozbZCTX
know, all the guys on social media were kind of jealous when he posted 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZEmhJEwwRG
that pic of you and him together."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTuJyaVm7v8
"Pff! That's not true." I rolled my eyes.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lUuFPST9c
"Well, you can ask Seungri and TOP who made a comment on Instagram last night."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG681230b8s
I blushed and at the 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ODaSbkuNE
same time felt so confused. Zoey had a silly smile on her face and I 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2i3yXSPzR
couldn't tell whether she did that to intimidate me or there was some 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjLv1RPcXF
other hidden agenda.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ91oR9REa9k
"You weren't on Instagram last night, were you?" she asked this time with a surprised look on her face.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwkGrsfSZF
"I was," I said as I stared at the ceiling to avoid her eyes."But only for a little while."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsAjsu1QnNh
"Or you weren't really there at all. If you did, you wouldn't have that look on your face."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJ2FQzYfSc
I sighed in surrender. 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDTQamnTi1A
"Fine. You caught me. I logged out of Instagram because I wanted to. 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKwVW1tJYmt
Besides, I knew all the notifications I was bound to receive were going 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf0dqib6iXP
to be endless, so I did what I had to do."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwF7thywfMZ
Zoey shook her head. "You really surprise me how much you aren't really a fan of social media when most of our peers are."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68EG5kXb5S
"You know me already, Zoey. I like social media when it's necessary."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8ZRpw2Nqa
"And hate it when you hit the headlines. Ya, I know you very well."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUzgyqx4da
"Okay, enough. What happened on Instagram last night?"1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWa9lCh4Ri9
Zoey had an excited look1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg7Gwxv7R0r
on her face that for a moment, I was surprised that she was ever even 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8OWwDnNY35
worried about us meeting with the managers at YG. Something hot was 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7gkigNXIlm
cooking about Seunghoon and I being called a couple. And it could 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjaf9dxvNSs
clearly show all over her face.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQE6fgh0SSG
"There was a debate last night whether you made a compatible girlfriend for Seungyoon," said Zoey as she excitedly bit her lip.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMrnr3zqr4l
I shook my head. "And?"1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2PpGEH9gbt
Zoey folded her arms, 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNeCBJDb3fP
still smiling. "Some people thought you and Seunghoon made a lovely 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3WRTWycMXU
couple, but others, mostly guys, didn't."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpcoWe0HHq
"Hold that thought. This1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLAm3CCGAQu
wouldn't have come up unless someone said something about the two of us1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8QFGhj6tBL
after Seunghoon posted that picture."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEfrsM14mj
"Don't look at me." Zoey looked the other way. "I didn't say anything."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGqpSfrdqnh
I snapped my fingers. "Seunghoon."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPLxZi8ZJ6s
"Bingo!" Zoey clapped her hands.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqWUIw5Ljn
"Gosh, what's wrong with him?" I rubbed my forehead feeling like I might just develop a headache.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNA0TmCo7F
"He's a fan. Is that so wrong?"1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtHH7JAp0Dn
"Well, he hid in our closet."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9UyBeIQmTA
"That was just the closet. Even I would do that for my bias."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjXS0q9uCDb
"Wow!" I leaned back in surprise. "Did you just say bias?"1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUqSutPDWWE
"Ya, why?"1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXq63QFTXUV
"Looks like we just 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWGwp4iUekz
developed the k-pop culture where we refer to our favourite celebrity, 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6hM2easoe
whom we consider perfect as our bias."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡybeRVwmpNo
Zoey thought for a moment over what I said as she looked at the floor and then back at me. "Mmmm, I guess you're right."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgizjoDRmSQ
"But anyway, Seunghoon hiding in my closet wasn't the only thing that he has done."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2xqNKAsxxT
"What do you mean? You 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5RzfbVt2Z
got to meet Seunghoon for the first time when he jumped out of our 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFfDYJWBHKS
closet. What else could he possibly have done before that?"1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvTJNo3oRL
"We had a few encounters before though I never knew it was him."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPztXVQQxHe
Zoey's eyes bulged out in surprise. "He was stalking you?"1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6rgHHFreH
"Not really. But I can say he was. Just a little. If he was a full time stalker, he would've been doing so everyday."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4aDq1HNf1V
"When did that happen and when were you ever going to tell me?"1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡawttjeHZNT
"I wanted to but I kept 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡczISpxg5H7
it to myself. And when other issues started to arise, especially with 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiSfPKA1Ynk
Jehan, I even forgot that I even had a stalker."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGl35QELfRo
"Jehan. Don't remind me," said Zoey as she rolled her eyes.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2x0vCYX7c
"Ya, I shouldn't. But now you know. And for the record, don't tell anybody."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIe4cYfPDA
"My lips on this one are sealed. I won't tell anyone, not even G-Dragon."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLgiNPJYBt
I looked at Zoey with a questioning look. "Why would you mention him in all of this?"1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeN7Zrgqvv8
Zoey quickly got up from the bed. "Pretend I never said that."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG8swoL7TG0
I quickly stood up and 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvB5lCdSDb1
Zoey made a beeline for the door. I followed her and just before she 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFL2fIo3JZ
could hold the door knob, I reached her, held her by the hair and pulled1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFd6twyHQT
her back.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPb7rNCxz2
"Ow, ow, ow!" Zoey yelled as she held the back of her head from where I pulled at her hair.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWqgDiiIz7D
"Zoey, you're going to 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Afcw5Wypp
tell me right now what you mean," I said, pulling her hair even more. 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLDLILQxQd
"Or else, I'll pull your hair out and you will not think of dying your 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡge1jAwNz1g
own hair pink in the next ten years."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFS863oc7PF
"Ouch! Sam! You're hurting me!" Zoey complained. "I was just joking around."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVGIrtghuh
"You're lying."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAE1NXNyCKo
"I'm telling the truth!"1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3WF25578og
"Come on, Zoey. You personally had a talk with G-Dragon, didn't you?"1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGkBsTO9ixb
I felt Zoey pause as she stopped struggling to get away. "How did you know?"1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8d1M0g2gYh
"I know because I know. So, what did you two talk about?"1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfO7qaw3Bd
"I can't tell you that."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlsHB7BKEQk
"Why?"1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSLvBLtbndW
"Because it's 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3gM07bHGh
confidential. Owwwuch!" I made sure I tightened my fist even more under 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfbSMauF3v1
her hair pulling at her roots. "That really hurts!"1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAOmzl49wIM
The door in front of us suddenly flew open. Lee came in the room and paused upon seeing the scene in front of her.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9rO8tqBbD
"Is it me or is Sam trying to braid your hair?" Lee asked Zoey with an unbelievable look on her face.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBhCL1Owhgs
"Yes, I was," I said as I let go of Zoey's hair and Zoey blew out a sigh of relief. "Turns out, I'm not that good at it at all."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8YjsANTcJx
"No, you aren't," said Zoey as she massaged her scalp from where I had pulled her hair and she looked at me with a frown.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8WwJ1mUBW
"You can tell me about your drama later," said Lee. "The car's here and we have to go."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEPq5X6U8yR
Zoey whined as though she was about to cry. "Do we really have to go now?" she asked.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhP9TGaqbQL
"I know it feels like you're going for a trial, but you don't have a choice."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlV8i8rnOPg
"Lee's right," I said. "We do have to hear our managers out. Though we all know it won't be pretty."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8WO4tGjUv
"Fine," said Zoey. "Before we get there, I better prepare for the worst."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQlDoAKQ1A
"Think positive," said Lee. "You can never know what might happen."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXiLI5xQJk2
"No, Sam's already spoiled my mood with her own premonitions."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcYP5mGfr5U
"And she did the right thing," said Lee with a smile.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtAF2hUZrMl
I playfully rolled my 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbL7nrqKRE1
eyes and didn't say a word as I walked out of the room with Zoey and Lee1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd3XfMUl9h3
following suit. I found the other Toxins waiting by the elevator. They 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYLroHYe6em
also looked worried.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxl39aVboCe
"You all look like you're going to a funeral," said Zoey.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz6oWE2Zi0z
"And you were sounding like your hair's caught fire a minute ago," said Mike, folding his arms and looking at Zoey.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx6FkbwPPZg
"I fell on the floor." Zoey looked at Mike with wide eyes.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdLJFVWGipY
"Never mind. Just like you guys, we are also worried," I said.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNRtP2OuzX
"Where is Collins?" Daniel asked.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7XFyRRNtN3
"He left soon after breakfast," Lee answered.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxGvmjJZfR
The five of us turned to look at Lee. "What?" we said at the same time.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMOBvlBwNt
"He left early," said Lee, shrugging her shoulders1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8PDl1KGFOI
"Why? Is he really that mad at us that he wants to go ahead to prepare a death trap?" Zoey asked.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ151q9hed3p
"Death trap? Seriously, Zoey?" Christine asked.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUczK9MQcq
Zoey shrugged. "Couldn't think of any other way to say it."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQt2Xb9Z6ST
"Okay, first of all," 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPO4TRJU1D
said Lee grabbing our attention. "There is no death trap. Secondly, 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZUBSjAJt9s
after we came back from Times Square, I personally talked to Collins and1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0PgOLEEXXn
he wasn't mad at you."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGgnK8caCx
"Then do you know why he wants BlackPink, WINNER and us to meet?" Mike asked.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtyUCBVOVBO
"That, he couldn't say."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7dUXFUQi5o
"I thought you were his assistant," said Daniel.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmetguIhIJI
"You know, Collins doesn't tell me everything. He treats me like I'm part of you guys too."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhYhUpkvHtF
"Welcome to the monkey side," said Zoey as she rolled her eyes and scratched her head.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoucXJyPGu8
"Ya, I now know how that feels. But right now we better go."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGm2lmwnLmi
Christine pressed the 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7PM89NItDv
button to the elevator and when we all got in, we headed downstairs and 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHEoIspHlJ0
went in the black SUV waiting for us. There were a few fans who stood 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2WBqSUzzTg
outside the hotel premises and for a moment, it felt a little awkward 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVLbmaJuxY
that they were here in the nearly hours of the morning. I know it's 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQR7INXZ2rP
normal for every fan to do so but today I couldn't help but feel that 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQonmBbHNnt
something was a bit odd about it. Then I remembered BTW.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB90qNjU27S
We got to YG right on 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZk9c61UXdk
time and immediately we stepped into the lobby, we found all four 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Sb1Str8Ms
members of WINNER heading for the elevator. Looked like they had also 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBOshKoQOGh
arrived a few seconds earlier.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq8sDmyisLL
"Hey, guys!" Zoey greeted loudly so that she could grab their attention.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHfffSJqMsr
"Zoey!" Mino turned around and had a huge smile on his face. "Hey, guys."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0I4TlhL1AQ
"Hi," the four of us responded and not in a way people would like to hear.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3nMZl8NroB
"You all look down," said Seungyoon. "What's wrong?"1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB36cDMSfkE
"It's nothing really," I said. "We just don't like how this meeting is going to turn out."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXwXiamLtv
The four members of WINNER all muttered at the same time.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0GpNYGYxl
"Guess we're not the only ones feeling that way," said Jinwoo.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCWNCiYnKO
"Are BlackPink already here?" Mike asked.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfdFFfOpieq
"The receptionist says they are waiting in the conference room," said Seunghoon.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4q5U2iHfa4
"Okay," said Daniel as he rubbed his hands together. "Let's go meet our fate."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOS93VL8OS
"If this comes out as a death trap, I'm going to say I told you so," said Zoey.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLMwMyBhpf
"There will be no such 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlD5JBbj95
thing," said Christine. "You're just exaggerating what might come up 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYzBub1hDjM
that we won't like at all so you refer to it as a death trap."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPXObax6Ay
"And you're making it 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0CVwBWsJm
sound ten times worse than it already is, Zoey," said Seungyoon, as he 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSRmspHXLCb
pouted his lip and scratched his head.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡejQf3DSDXa
"Wonder where that came from," said Mino.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMylPKB6TIn
"Trust me, you don't 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvo7hPrnu09
want to know," said Lee as she pulled out her phone from her purse. "You1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDNBGBDw54
guys go ahead and I'll give your managers a call that you're here."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡadPBeI4vYV
"You aren't coming with us?" I asked.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFavVmIxTZz
"I might have joined the 'monkey's club' but I'm not going to be there when they drop a bombshell."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdHeKNHBMX
"See, death trap!" Zoey emphasised.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdmYgmok37K
"Zoey!" everyone muttered loudly that Zoey quickly covered her mouth and looked away.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWkx3tw5MaJ
"Look, whether they are 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZU0jjyIlsc
going to say what we might not like, a death trap as Zoey likes to put 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1gFyTkgPat
it. Or not, you'll be fine," said Lee. "We all have gone through this 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNjSfiNVd81
where you never like the decisions the managers have to make."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLb9QoYs3yK
"Please, don't remind us," said Mike as he rubbed his forehead.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRnIacVR4N0
"Either way," Lee continued, "you better go. You don't want to be late."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxBlwKIVhhJ
"Won't you wish us luck?" I asked.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYlS1njLACM
"You don't need it when you already know what's going to happen."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYP54Jmzf3F
I gave Lee a sad smile 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJXuNPvP6V8
and turned towards the elevator. I started to feel the way I always felt1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNj8nfKjZT
whenever you had to hear a decision that might just cost something in 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡft4HVkRI94
your life. Like suicide.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjI4jzDcJn
We started our way 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpsCcVRTnm2
towards the elevator when all of the sudden, I stopped when I realised 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlg92JQZzCs
that I didn't have my phone with me. I checked the pockets of my jumper 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcNfaHZqxKi
and my jean trousers. Nothing.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZiLrd1sxW
"Gosh, I think I left my phone in the car," I said. "You guys go ahead, I'll catch up."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtzlf7DTHW
I quickly ran out of the1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8QUh8OzX2D
lobby as the others made their way into the elevator with Lee. When I 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOC0k9pk8i
got to the parking lot, I made my way towards the SUV we had driven in 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHiTswcD58w
and luckily, I met the driver who was almost about to leave the car. I 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNapN1Ec3kc
told him about my phone and he unlocked the doors for me so that I could1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVQPYESpLE
check for it inside.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwY4eeFKxq
When I got to the 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUN13XSwhx3
passenger's seat, I saw the phone in between the seats I sat on with 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJvG34BOiK
Zoey on our way here. I got in the car and sat in just to get it. When I1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQMiha25KeH
did, I checked to see if I had any missed calls or messages. There were1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvDvUMgWCm
two missed calls and a message. I opened my inbox to read the message 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJufrxPKVL
and it was one short sentence with only four words. I looked at the 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjeiO4adu4A
message again not believing what I read. There was only one logical 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaE6ygH3Loz
explanation to this and I was going to find out why.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPbc5b1e0UK
Just as I was about to get out, I jumped in fright when I saw who was standing right outside the car. Seunghoon.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSL0eqC7Xd2
"Seriously, I can sue 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtoiv1tHLrN
you for stalking me," I said as I held my chest. My heart was beating so1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmljWNubftC
fast. I never even heard him coming.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡooQul0iqtI
"Just came to check on you," he said with a smile.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4lOdZ1dLR
"You're not my bodyguard1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvg9zsg2LEf
that you've to follow me around," I said as I came out of the car and 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNFkf3dnyZ
banged the door shut. "How did you get here? I never heard you coming."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrhYItGfR7t
"Maybe I have kitty attributes like you." Seunghoon raised his eyebrows up and down and leaned towards me.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvGD2pjIYCV
I blushed. "You know about that?"1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgVouY3k2x
"Everyone knows you have1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQY9cKBgcDE
cat feet, Sam. No one ever hears you coming unless you want them to. 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRh0k01STxq
Zoey once mentioned that in an interview, I remember."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3Mwn3Xwwe
"Never mind. I just came to get my phone and you didn't have to follow me."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc85gNyPVGG
"Looks like I did the 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCgy2JuWo7
right thing because you look like you're about to punch something right 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqynYktmtJJ
now and I'll be the one to control your anger."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzH1Wf17VkT
"If I wanted to, can you be my punching bag?" I folded my arms.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQoyPFz02l
"You wouldn't even if you wanted to." He smirked and I rolled my eyes.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkpohPDmY9Q
"You're right. I don't want to be sued by YG for breaking your face."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxfN5QqX2h
"And because you're a 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCEmZCn0mZ2
lady and you don't have to punch anyone unless it's necessary. You might1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgasToRT2uh
have punched that school mate of yours but that was years ago. So, 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAjqxOWU0I
what's up? It looked like you just received a bad message."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJIOCGund97
"It isn't a bad message. Just something that needs a little sorting out. Come on, you'll see."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSo1qbCftQ
I quickly started my way back to the YG building and Seunghoon was up to pace with me with his long legs.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9aW4zecwV
"Can you at least tell 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4G6oBAoK7o
me what's going on?" Seunghoon asked when we finally got in the elevator1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡngYE25WaTJ
and he pressed the button leading to the floor to the conference room.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMBwX9HRvM
"Nope, if I tell you it won't have that wonderful dramatic effect," I answered.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwN1YVs3f4A
"What dramatic effect?" 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpzx7vDIHRQ
Seunghoon looked me in the eye with a curious look on his face as he 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmgbIAwRb6
came closer. I took a warning step back.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQFKET5cDDO
"If you hadn't followed 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOpybg8fsBG
me to the parking lot, you would know what I mean and you would be 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgacyRdwnqN
trying to recover from the little surprise you'll find in the conference1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFdvwIfWV7
room."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsJzfREQhK4
"What surprise?"1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6KKf4dSGZb
The elevator stopped and1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhCO3g4JhU
the doors flew open. Just as Seunghoon and I turned to look down the 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0nMFbMeSVe
hall, there was Zoey coming out hurriedly through the door of one of the1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Ol9SkfP8Y
rooms, into the hall and running towards the elevator upon seeing us. 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVE2eoWo2A
Seunghoon and I stepped out.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIajazZsTrS
"Zoey, what's wrong?" Seunghoon asked when she reached us and she had a horrified look on her face.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHWuP4A1Bbs
"You will not believe what's going on," said Zoey.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9FhKLbG1o3
"I already have a guess," I said.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0MgGZH9ZTa
"You know?" Zoey grew shocked as she looked at me.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6objhwRONl
"Yep. And we are going to sort this out right now."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDGnNsGGyX
I made my way towards the conference room. Seunghoon and Zoey follow.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuycDfS2Mf7
"What's going on? Can someone please tell me?" Seunghoon asked.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4yXCkvren
"You're about to find out," said Zoey.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDad6LOd3b
When we reached the 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlClHDinByz
conference room, I took hold of the door knob, turned it and opened the 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG3DfXMRLZ5
door. The conference room was quiet and there was a weird aura that I 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOuvSN5G7M
felt immediately I stepped in. I didn't have to ask why.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGjrCuID2A
In the conference room 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEv7Uv200Ek
was a huge round mahogany table. It's polished surface shining bright 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14snWG6phu
under the tiny light bulbs embedded in the roof. There were black office1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsCwDuDV64g
chairs around the table. The other Toxins, BlackPink and WINNER were 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKktpjl48Nq
all seated at one half end of the rounded table. When they saw me enter 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNqv0S8nqK
the room, the look on their faces was so worrying that I grew horrified 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMk9YpeMax
though I did my best not to show it.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6IFXquktNA
"Sam," said Mike and I stopped him short before he could say anything else with my hand raised.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOCSA98QGB
I looked to the opposite1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5mNCnlDIjE
half end of the table from where the others sat and I noticed that one 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnnmVu16yS2
of the chairs faced the other way. Someone was sitting there and had 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6FWEDtZNiC
turned their backs to us facing the wall.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcIji7RwCRJ
"You don't have to act all high and mighty, you know?" I said to the person facing the wall. "I know it's you, GD."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0qF74FlYLT
G-Dragon quickly turned 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfH9XpRdlNr
around on the chair and he had that smile on his face that was somewhat 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj6QGdFiPls
annoying and yet so cute that my heart almost melted.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEibGs1UDz2
"Hi, Sam," said G-Dragon as he leaned his elbows on the table and his hands under his chin. "How did you know it was me?"1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUYPKTjnhZP
"The message you sent me wasn't too hard to figure out that you would be here," I answered as I held up my phone.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWb55enikg
"Huh?" Seunghoon looked surprised at seeing G-Dragon and also confused at what I said. "What did it say?"1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsIMPn7iIWW
"Just a simple, 'hi, are you coming?' was all," I said as I looked at Seunghoon.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJEDsTFJFsJ
"Wait," said Lisa who 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQPaAqQGqew
sat with the others at the other end, looking at me also with a confused1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ4rQ9MRGTh
look on her face. "You knew just like that? Through his message?"1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpefP2OAorE
"It felt simple and 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn4o7Nlw84j
straightforward. For all we know, only BTW were supposed to be here to 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7Ad8HIKPv
meet with our managers. And I for one didn't make any breakfast date 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHV99PcLTMR
with G-Dragon today."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCBhFHKfy1L
"Smart," said G-Dragon as he winked at me."Looks like you're really referring to your little group as BTW then."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6cQjh7komI
"I don't have a choice." I raised my eyebrow at him. "With you around, I just have to rub it in your face." 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmddubk44rj
"We will see about that. Because we're going to have a serious talk about BTW."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx1DS5cj1CS
"I had a feeling you would be on the managers' side the second we came here," said Mino.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡda2EDh4YO6
"Ya, I know I'm a 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK7aHZUJIW4
threat," said G-Dragon as he grinned. "I did say all this was going to 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5uCniBtXSx
have consequences if you guys keep on meeting each other."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6EBgOdY9pJ
"If you mean us getting 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxv8tlpUOk
into trouble with our managers, you're sadly mistaken," said Jessie. 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOPfMWOLHRk
"They weren't even mad at all because all they know is that we all met 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJkCr4q30wr
by coincidence."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKoD9H5TeG
"You're right." G-Dragon stood up from his seat. "They aren't mad, just yet."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVoB8HGImMA
I didn't like his last sentence and something told me he had something up his sleeve.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSiFF3lWOz6
"We wouldn't be having this meeting if it wasn't for you, am I right?" I asked.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5N0PcYTUvr
The rest of the BTW crew1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDA5jUZ4cw
grew confused and started muttering. And I could tell their eyes were 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqtKulI0e2q
flying from G-Dragon to me, wondering who would say something next.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDpq3aBpzbs
"You know me so well," said G-Dragon as he stood up and came around the table to get to me.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKnjeXszyR9
"I just know how the human mindset works," I said. "I don't really know you at all."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUMdYzzEyh
"Hold up," said Zoey who1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6zkpcTj14W
stood beside me as she looked at G-Dragon. "So, you're saying, you 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP3wEdIHJRV
called for this meeting to get us in trouble?"1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6YCQwRcdBM
"That's a simple way of putting it," said G-Dragon as he smiled at Zoey.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOG8rHx7zSl
"Told you we'll 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMdXDyR6dV
experience a death trap," Zoey muttered loud enough for everyone to hear1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6oKHDILskX
as she went to stand beside the others at the other end of the table.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBAWIPJ7E9I
"But is he going to do 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqHtRdWdP6
that?" Rosé asked. "He will need a lot of evidence to show that we all 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfq1xjA50I
didn't really meet by coincidence."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM6Rdgaj58N
There was silence in the1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDtp9C8ZLnL
room until Daniel and Mike murmured "oh no" at the same time. I knew 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJB4ztXwX80
that just like me, they had already figured out what G-Dragon was 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsx8uZAMdGo
planning to do.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY31EDYziJD
"He doesn't need any evidence to trap us," said Mike.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fVdJQadt3
"What do you mean?" Jisoo who sat beside him asked.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXRqtYLGau4
"The managers would believe him if talks about what happened the day before yesterday at the hotel," said Daniel.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMFTZw6dk9Q
"The time WINNER came to see us," said Christine as the realisation settled in.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡutRFQf8XmW
"And they would take his word because he has Daesung and Seungri to back him up," I said.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtPuVInlI0
"And also because he's 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRewHV7a8GP
our senior," said Zoey as she folded her arms. "That's how he even 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCe0QUs4eqr
managed to set this meeting up in the first place."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JywJOSziQ
"Well, you Toxins did your homework," said G-Dragon.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡew7t4u5yFf
"Why do I feel like I'm in court?" Seungyoon asked.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQpFwy6FGBZ
"It's because we are and we have to take defence," I said.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9fmvHYUGY6
"Can't we just settle this matter somehow?" Jinwoo asked.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSUMKjczBg
"Why do I feel I just entered an episode of Suits?" Mike asked.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkHTQEB5R8
I turned to look at Mike and I wasn't the only who did. Mike shrugged his shoulders.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5EMLT403t
"What? I watch Suits from time to time."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxlanzCBV9E
"What will it take so that you won't tell our managers?" Seunghoon asked.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUjSXfNeqc
G-Dragon smiled. He had 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIA83p28Zvl
us right where he wanted. I was so not liking this right now. When I 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLC5NtktIvh
thought we would be dealing with our managers, we actually were meant to1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtm8sDUFSK5
deal with G-Dragon instead.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ526I5QOqZO
"I'm glad you brought that up because I was thinking of the same thing," said G-Dragon.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BAyH4nZkA
"What do you want?" I asked.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqaSW2Er1JH
G-Dragon looked at me as1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhSno4YUNW
he bit his lip. I looked straight at him in the eye wondering why he 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡexzcFmyN6z
was doing all of this. I had a hunch, but I had to be sure of it before I1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78PX6UarYR
came to any conclusions.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZXvq5Nznuv
"To make things clear 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLoJdFgid1
with all of you," said G-Dragon. "I might have brought up this idea of a1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXBprETqRy
meeting in the first place concerning BTW, but the managers had been 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoApT2k0fo8
thinking about doing the same thing."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyFRQyWFKvh
"That still doesn't change the fact that all this was your idea," said Seungyoon.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgqS9MjnMp
"You're right. And just to give you a heads up, the managers aren't going to let BTW be a group."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAr0oIYEWHA
"We already know that," said Zoey. "We all had a feeling that it would come to this."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡON2c6SH2rQ
"And we will not allow it," said Rosé.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlM8dMAXSi
"Most of us are up for this idea and some of the fans too," said Mino.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhb6bqSkKQ
"That's the problem," said G-Dragon. "You guys aren't going to let it slide and this why I came here with a deal."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBsOjZBp2eM
"You want us to agree or else you tell our managers everything," I said.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiHKRxd4fbL
"All's fair in love and 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9Ps4krgJn
war." G-Dragon gave a huge smile. "You guys are stubborn and they might 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSg4xZegJOI
just agree to your whims. So just accept what they bring up and we can 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNG9NpOmxkw
go and pretend we never even had this meeting."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAnXceYe5Fe
"Come on," Christine 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEX7TyiwkWW
complained. "As if BTW is even going to be an ongoing thing. The Toxins 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO0kLTVHrQn
won't be here for long and you know it."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjIg0Ox1lx2
"Christine's right," said Lisa. "I don't think it's wrong if we make BTW temporarily."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbAZMXeoa5
"BTW is nothing but a 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGzbCHy04R
collaborative group on my part," I said. "It's almost in the same way 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZsL4aFqyJ6
artists collaborate. Like the way The Toxins and BigBang did."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnKJLFmkScr
"I firmly agree with Sam," said Jisoo.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAzZdxg54IN
"We all do," said Seunghoon. "Just imagine what BTW can do."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiWBoT4UhIp
"Who knows, we might just have our own show!" Zoey said excitedly.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFPu88uIQ6
"Which won't last long by the way," pointed out Mike.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyp9emLqZsZ
"And it's going to attract a lot of media attention like it did yesterday," said Jinwoo.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rVsfksZfJ
"We might just make BTW involved in market promotions too," said Mino.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKT7mzQC9sE
"That's being business minded and I like it," said Jennie.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlNcLlsFEGM
"See, there's a lots of things BTW can do though it might only be for a short while," I said as I smirked looking at G-Dragon.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUlMaEgsmzx
"Well, you guys can dream all you want but it isn't going to happen," said G-Dragon.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCyMw9BXkLA
Upon saying that, the 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOlNo6LNZme
door to the conference room flew open. I turned to the door and coming 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2UmxalcyaW
in were the two managers and Lee. For a moment I grew silent with 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQkYkkLMB2G
everyone else in the room due to their sudden presence. Those who were 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMQYtMki4g
seated stood up.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAX80bjYmKA
I gulped. I hope the 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡouyBSiQZ1N
managers hadn't heard the entire conversation. Especially the part where1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYEHmlBf1Wp
G-Dragon was to get us in trouble by telling them the truth.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMysLNSr9q1
The two managers had 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdUFPyh90uS
their eyes on me at first and I felt they had finally figured what was 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVncIUyd0ZX
going on. I wanted to break into a sweat when they looked at me. But I 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHVjAfidNWb
kept myself calm telling myself that I maybe over thinking and nothing 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡESLzrqhpJl
is wrong.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9oIzONWU1
"Good that you're all 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW6m48mMmQa
here," said Yang Hyun-suk. "We have a few things to discuss. Zoey, 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfUzXV0OYcw
Seunghoon, Sam, Jiyong, take your seats, please. And everyone else too."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ96DRxwPS97
I have always hated it 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzHDdIFIZRC
when managers have that serious tone in their voice that shook every 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmicBHua6Jd
cell in your body. I quickly took the chair in front of me and G-Dragon 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoplaLJgzPq
sat to my left and Seunghoon to my right. For some reason, I felt really1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd21OD16uAZ
uncomfortable sitting in between them. The others sat back down on 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcV9X5LWvBL
their seats.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPym4EkfOgb
The two managers and Lee1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPUSa282Bcr
stood at the other end of the table and we all had our eyes on them. I 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrXc9CrURNw
started to silently tap my fingers on the polished wooden table as I bit1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHCRBjmjGdr
my lower lip. I turned to look at the others and even though some were 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5jCnFQckOx
trying to put up a straight face, I could tell they were as nervous as I1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKofVrA0Utv
was.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc10i3toYY7
"Everyone in here looks really tense," said Collins. "As though you weren't the ones laughing about yesterday at Time Square."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmkMidO826V
"Well, we all know why we are," I said as I looked at Collins. "And we know it's something serious."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡarYpZ5w3sW
"You're right, it is serious," said Yang Hyun-suk.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡclDO7UDfkm
Zoey sighed loudly in 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqDyFSqc4QA
frustration and everyone turned to look at her. "Please just say it 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmPEoJazXY
already," she said. "'You created a huge mess yesterday, blah, blah, 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCih9CVkrbP
blah you weren't supposed to meet, blah, blah, blah and so BTW was just a1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbFLGKLKLv
one day thing.' Some of us just want to go back to the hotel and watch 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkhzS6ZjMOO
some K-drama to forget the horrible aftermath of this meeting."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw7yk7haf2s
The two managers 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlIbiQctFV
chuckled at Zoey's response and I couldn't figure out why they found it 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKdPGmxXXY
so amusing when most of us in this room were grieving in the inside. 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNi0t0kTLc
That was so not cool.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvyNhlBDrrr
"You never cease to amaze me, Zoey," said Yang Hyun-suk. "And you're right. This BTW thing was nothing but a one time thing."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvG8Rv65Ij
"Here we go," muttered Jessie as she leaned back on her chair and closed her eyes in despair.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡood7pTKccu
"But that doesn't mean we can't reconsider it," said Collins.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjtrzHaGwp1
My ears perked up when 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbEKpPASKE
Collins said the word "reconsider." And I bet the others were all 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSSFIAxnjZ
attentive too. Could it be that they might just turn things around?1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZJSyCeHiO
Seunghoon cleared his throat. "What do you mean?" he asked.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKE0oljfhkD
"We heard you outside 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQWV0NNGZF
the door discussing or rather debating about making BTW a real group 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYiveV2dPad
thing even if it's just temporary," said Yang Hyun-suk.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60t2YSDirB
"And as stood by the door, we reconsidered giving BTW a shot," said Collins.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUEqjptl3p
"For real?" I couldn't believe my ears.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQrPplKs2C
"Yes, Sam. For real," 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkDambXmEn
said Yang Hyun-suk. "But don't get your hopes up because we have to go 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJmuTJx01F
through further scrutiny about this decision."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYf1LgGwuv1
I smiled. Even if they 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xJCu4IqMr
were saying we shouldn't get our hopes up, it was quiet clear they were 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDiQ1Rba3q
up for the idea themselves and that meant BTW was a go.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdzdZfnJecg
There was an exciting 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZsamsjBU2
feeling in the air now that the whole BTW crew were all rejuvenated by 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX2M7vRXkbu
the exciting news. We were all smiling to ourselves and already I could 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSziAPATEuH
see that Zoey and Lisa who sat next to each other were ready to clap 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVnyPXqPpa
their hands but they hid them under the table so that the managers 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa55v3nIgpA
wouldn't notice as they clapped silently.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvGEq2vrUZl
"Are you sure about this?" G-Dragon asked.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXryKFGJdqT
I turned to my other 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ko4inubbW
side and I realised that the whole time we had been talking to our 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBoXSGCE4w
managers, I had been so oblivious that GD was sitting next to me. Maybe 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiyph6hVDpH
it's because right now, he felt like a traitor and his presence right 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyEtHfHYWE
now, didn't matter.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9rwFszs0F
"You heard them when 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Z2bBtPaU4
they talked to you about it," said Yang Hyun-suk. "In such cases, it's 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlYv2kfN6Jw
good to be business minded and see how all this goes."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbnNU3fXRPd
"So, you all agree to this, right?" Mike asked with his eyebrow raised just to be sure.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb5s6mJ3AAl
"To be perfectly clear, yes, we agree," said Collins.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa384bmqoaf
"And so even if we tried to object to it you would refuse us to do so because the decision came from you, right?" I asked.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPSCWC1fyu
This time it was me, or I1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNczdjywsUW
can say, BTW, trapping G-Dragon. G-Dragon turned to look at me and he 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs2XDI5uxae
knew it. The managers' plan in the first place was not to make BTW an 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvfYgRNuFH
official group and if we refused, they would G-Dragon would tell them 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFUHPz1XIv7
our secret and there would be no BTW. And due to the condition G-Dragon 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeFYVWm9kZZ
had laid out for us in the first place, there was simply no need for him1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY22BdI1MXo
to reveal our little secret anymore. All he told us to do was to agree 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUHsxL4W7dK
to whatever the managers' decision was and we were doing just that. And 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhgb5adjmJn
there was no going back on his word. Look who's laughing now.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK1vFAxEXyK
"Of course you should agree because whatever we decide is an order," said Yang Hyun-suk.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjlKrjH00R
"Yep, an order is an order," said Mino with a huge grin on his face.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFl4JF4Nvcu
"I really thought they wouldn't make BTW official," said Jisoo. "Now that it is, I agree."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ49eZpxAPQl
"We all agree," said Daniel.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQ8ZaIzgBV
"Hold your horses, people," said G-Dragon. "It hasn't been made official."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3dxrceOPG
"But just because it 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltmYqcwuDC
hasn't, doesn't mean that it will," said Seunghoon as he looked over at 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbeDXWwV8E
G-Dragon with a victory smile on his face. That made me smile even more.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBtMgSsvuqt
"Okay, so that's settled1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfq2VCIHftx
then," said Collins. "We will discuss for now and see what the seniors 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsd0SmxM7Ts
have to say. Once they agree, we will begin with the paper work and make1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZaqh1L3ZPN
BTW official."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsrq1n6MAz1
"Of course they will agree," said Rosé. "Who wouldn't?"1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9Nq8NUjT0
I noticed that most of 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWYSTA9DGbE
the eyes on the table especially from BTW flew to G-Dragon. Mine also 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz5nlQOpRbf
did the same. Luckily, the managers never noticed a thing. But Lee did 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMfTesV1k88
when she looked at me and I grinned.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvK9rbAKfnw
"Okay, then," said Yang Hyun-suk as he rubbed his hands. "Now that's been taken care of, you may go but, with one condition."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡypNNHCZJH4
There was dead silence in the room when Yang Hyun-suk mentioned he had one condition. My heart started to race.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Mdex4G0cx
"Before we make BTW 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCy16fvzhAw
official, may I advise that you three groups don't meet each other too 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOoatgKtaq2
often," said Yang Hyun-suk. "We don't want to raise a lot of people's 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9jGGns9If
hopes thinking that the group might be official so you better keep it 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Iz4NssLus
low for a while. Is that good?"1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13kiNI2moO
"Fine by me," said Seungyoon. "As long as we can ask for your permission from time to time."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs2iLBkSNwS
"That's fair enough," 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ZWS5e6Cma
said Collins. "But today, you won't go and hang out after this because 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8HY1OpC4mc
already there are too many of your fans lurking around hoping for BTW to1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMY9rAfSte7
be official and they can use anything just to let other people believe 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7QSUNhgGDB
so."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqTTovvWHh5
"So you want to crush 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbU75TRcVcQ
their hopes and later surprise them when you make the group official," I1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXgGPZKkMG
said while I nodded my head. "I had to admit, that's a pretty good 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrw1d8qc5u3
strategy."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzeSfq2xQO
"Then if all is well and1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRASqW75Woo
good, we will be leaving then," said Yang Hyun-suk. "We will keep you 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOpRRNeNHrn
updated and not a word on social media."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhy8PD6hOC3
I stood up from my seat 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEbKAgl78SU
and everyone else did the same. As our managers made their way for the 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrEqs7trRzp
door with Lee I couldn't help but smile and just as they were about to 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmvK9zIq8As
walk out, I stopped them.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2aVsk6DQQI
"Wait," I said and the two managers turned to look at me.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHuIEKAN7E
"What is it, Sam?" Collins asked.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWrFFWAoAf2
"Thank you," I beamed and I bowed. "Kamsahabnida (감사합니다)."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwyfwKsyDUh
The rest of BTW also bowed and also said thank you. The two managers smiled at our lovely gesture.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa2Z2PZJ1ph
"If it weren't for that I might just declare BTW official today," said Yang Hyun-suk.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmR5mcUFvv3
"You would?" Zoey, Jessie, Christine and Jisoo asked at the same time. I rolled my eyes and shook my head.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7I4D48ElG7
"No." Yang Hyun-suk 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs42PKdbPO9
smiled even more and he walked out of the room with Collins. Lee waited a1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzSJs3yaoLA
few seconds by the door until the managers disappeared down the hall.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvp85vIcpv9
"Congratulations, BTW," she said quietly. She looked really happy. "You did it!"1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVe2qRfJ6EX
"Another music collaboration for The Toxins," I said with a smile.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHXxQztjqQ
"And triple more of the fun," said Mike.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZgBrF3dYX
"Now that I totally agree," said Daniel as he gave his brother a high five.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZYM1RwnFC
"This is like the best 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1uXHVmULi6
news ever," said Zoey. "Thank you so much, Sam for making me feel like 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡswgItQUDDH
all hope was lost when actually things turned out alright."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQhfDyNGfy
"I don't think you should be thanking Sam for that," said Jinwoo.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtt8zje1rpj
"Jinwoo's right," I said. "We wouldn't have been able to get our managers to reconsider if it wasn't for G-Dragon."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5WL52s0uXf
The room grew silent as all eyes were on Jiyong. I looked at him through the corner of my eye and smiled.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSaLlqXFzY
"I've to admit you played me very well," said G-Dragon with a look of defeat on his face. "Congrats."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFPA6TQkV5
"All this wouldn't have happened if you hadn't tried to trap us in the first place," said Seunghoon.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡep4Aee03yH
"I knew there was a 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJKWXHd145U
reason for G-Dragon to have called for this meeting in the first place,"1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqr5bnktxfa
said Lee. She shook her head in disappointment as she looked at 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoCaf4N4CWc
G-Dragon.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2DoqULQqRT
"You knew?" Christine asked.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZhDzuFUj8
"I got to find out when I went to see the managers."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSVMdI0isrM
"But everything turned in our favour in the end," said Lisa. "So, I'm not even that mad at him at all."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ309g89h2w
"You just got lucky because the managers happen to be eavesdropping on our conversation at the wrong time," said G-Dragon.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2PAcdbJupQ
"At the right time on our part," said Mino.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBOXaOOH3dA
"I'll just say, I'm mad at you, GD. But since you did us this huge favour, I forgive you," said Zoey as she smiled.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemOiIA9JS7
"Thank you, G-Dragon!" BlackPink said all together. "We love you!"1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSVEdxrG1m7
"Well, you guys can tell1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkDTRxv6Fq
me how this all went down from the beginning, but right now, you all 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2gORWf5oAo
have to go," said Lee. "And I'm supposed to see to it that you all 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqjLmee0wKy
aren't going to go into the same car."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBy5gXMsSSU
"Don't worry, we won't disobey our managers after all this," I said. "Can I have a talk with G-Dragon alone, please?"1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUR9unSXyE
Everyone else started to1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwx0RVDtpm4
slowly step out of the room and I made sure to say bye to BlackPink and1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWL37AAaT3M
WINNER. When everyone had left, Lee closed the door behind her. It was 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmX2JvzsYiZ
only G-Dragon and I.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEBYGecpJiP
"I'm mad at you," I started.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvdRqrT1nef
"I know," he replied. "Sam....."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcYqq58S4gB
"Save it." I held my 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcsqcbv5pT8
hand up to silence him. "You know, you reminded me of all those times 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnblkkFmhou
you and I used to get into a fight and it seems you're bringing it all 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWONs9cNUOO
back. I thought we were past that but now it's like you want to bring up1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5gtRvVb1RG
a war again."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwwbhwNSou
"I'm not trying to bring up a war."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNGoe9PntQ
"You put us in a horrible position and we had to fight against you. That my friend, is called a war."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡreAdAckwYj
"Look, Sam, you've already won and I admit that trying to rattle you out to our managers was wrong of me."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM1xp4HBukz
I folded my arms. "Great! You realise it now when everything backfired on you and you didn't get what you want."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLh1Md79i6A
G-Dragon looked at me 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNHGwXnCKi
and me at him. Right now, I was fuming and I felt like I was going to 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gEzT1ANIe
burst. I never knew he would turn on us like this and it hurt me like a 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8m816JPBrz
stab in the heart.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCCHvhgpMp
"You're right. I realise it now because I didn't get what I want. But I want us to forget that all this ever happened."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4YACRQZIi
"You know, the others 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0TYUfajWcK
might forgive you because of the outcome but I am so mad that you could 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfReNfGAREk
ever do this just because you don't like it when we went out to hang out1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLDJav8mnl
with WINNER yesterday."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdyQD2YUPsZ
"If you're trying to say that I'm jealous, then yes, I am."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrs708Vswru
I nodded my head. What I1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkb8iEKRkqg
thought from the beginning the time I came to the conference room was 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8utt7FxHka
true. He was jealous. Not just of The Toxins hanging out with WINNER but1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZG0NdjIlN
of Seunghoon and I.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡndQmyLmTjT
"You know you and I can 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ982hhjqm73
only be friends and that relationship can't go any further than that. 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZjZzAIx72
It's the same thing with Seunghoon. And until you get over it, I suggest1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN1kGLa3CkP
you find a way for me to forgive you or this friendship might just go 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQUd0KegaC
down the rocks."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2iH7GPttx4
I headed for the door 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5quhlZvGDF
without a second thought and I didn't even get to look at him one. As 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qX5avIWG9
soon as I found myself in the hall heading for the elevator, there stood1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiCjLLMpJSa
Zoey, waiting.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqTttnjH4q
"I'm guessing you put him in his place," said Zoey as I approached her.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoiynJqjI0
"I sure hope so," I said1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgyMfTMhwO4
with a sigh. I felt like I had just arm wrestled with a body builder 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7aMICL4BOk
and emerged victorious, but at the same time came out exhausted.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzMkCQZokb
"When you're this mad, trust me, you do know how to put people in their place."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkY0kk7WseS
Zoey turned around and pressed the button to summon the elevator. When the elevator came, we stepped in and the doors closed.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzHdHucJ0lj
"I guess you figured out what G-Dragon and I talked about last night," said Zoey as she looked at me.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcAlxGct8p
"It wasn't that hard to figure it out," I said.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZiAnG7FTj
"Just like it wasn't hard for you to know that G-Dragon would be here. Sometimes your mind works like a supercomputer."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDV8CyqLfx
"You know computers are 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2xe2GCSPLs
just dumb machines, right?" I looked at Zoey. "They only do what they do1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKV4C7ZZbvP
because they have commands installed in them to work as they are 1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvXCbZ6iiDj
supposed to."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMlDvoPijE
"You're right. You're like a detective who plays by her own rules and always connects the dots."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEBj4t8Qa1R
I smiled. "You always call me that."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8XF262FlQ
"Ya, because you're smart too."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWmR3GIVvkX
The elevator reached the ground floor and we came out of the elevator finding ourselves in the lobby.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFEml269n3
"You know we should celebrate our victory," said Zoey.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe78wREosmC
"How?" I asked. "The group hasn't been made official and we can't celebrate when the three groups aren't together."1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxuCC7Xfq7z
"We can figure something out," said Zoey. "We won't have to be all together in one place, you know?"1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4CtLaAojYd
"I think I've an idea," I said as we walked out into the parking lot heading to the car.1105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWg6eDjkBGA
"I knew you would," said Zoey as she wrapped her arm around my shoulders.
