My body ached all over 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNw7cTrP7Ei
when I finally woke up. My eyes slowly opened and a flash of light above1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTyvBCyp4W
me was blinding that I had to shield my eyes with my hand. When my eyes1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP3PyDwbhjA
adjusted to the light, I sat up and I could tell I hadn't slept on my 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7LcoF1ovUi
bed.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8RqKV14L7
I scratched my head as I1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWnHRhTrxL
slowly took in my surrounding. I had slept in the lounge on the floor. I1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKLvNyBbN91
closed my eyes and murmured to myself. Collins was going to kill me if 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4znU0MV4e
he found me here.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhNqeaXhNGv
I slowly stood up and I 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQANLQKElbU
realised that I had been covered with a blanket when it dropped to the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRV6UnMVr0A
floor. Lee must have found me sleeping and covered me with it. So 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzh7I1KPTY7
thoughtful of her. And the guitar laid on the couch.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0IA8bJ19YW
"Morning, sleepy head," came Collins' voice behind me.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9XwhcRkJAz
I almost jumped in 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWvMi0jjFxH
fright when I turned around. I found Collins sitting at the dining 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZeTSUbIaa
table, drinking a hot cup of coffee and looking at his tablet. He was 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUK85JPTj71
obviously reading the news online.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNe8soHkZOb
"Hey, Collins," I replied as I walked over to him.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjw24RAMLq
"What did we say about working on the song the whole night?" Collins asked, still looking at his tablet.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJb2O1iMRx
"'Don't tire yourself 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ86ZjIGfeqf
out and just go to sleep,'" I said, remembering what Collins had told me1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUzoXj9ybp
last night since I refused to go to sleep when I arrived.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJqeRGQPMux
"And you didn't listen to me and you kept on playing your guitar the whole night. Your song sounds incredible, by the way."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOL4EydeYi
"Oh, you were listening?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2uN4uVcxuH
"Ya, you kept on playing1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWbZBA3uNBr
until I couldn't hear you play anymore. I came to check up on you and 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmaRGTcLFm0
you were hugging the guitar like a teddy bear."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9n1TCKvAe
"Thanks, Collins." I smiled at him.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3A9XXm3HPD
"For what?" Collins asked as he looked at me.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgL7iHi0MxJ
"For covering me with a blanket."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vzaGlHlQl
Collins looked at me 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7BgGTxbaS
with his eyebrow raised and smiled. "Go take a shower. We need to leave 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8a3X8wpcPp
for YG. Yang Hyun-suk also needs to hear the song."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3P9TFXBFb
"Okay." I smiled as I nodded.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY65MXWXAtC
"Morning, people," said Lee as she came into the lounge. "It feels really weird these guys aren't here. The place is so quiet."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMizIYA5OO3
"I know," I said. "I really miss them."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrW9v0nbIyp
"Me too."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71ZQKA7ep2
"I don't," said Collins as he sipped some of his coffee.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgurs8ajw38
Lee and I threw Collins angry glances. Collins chuckled to himself.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNoeGZNUio
"Going to take a shower," I said.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ovD2s6rH9
"You go do that," said Lee. "I'll order us some breakfast."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5pM5wJfWH
After I freshened myself1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6e409b5dWk
up, I went back to the lounge. I still found Lee and Collins by the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhfvoOzL14H
dining table. Lee was having her usual toast and eggs for breakfast, and1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXtQJBxn8s7
Collins was still on his tablet.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4XZoDainZ
"Are you going to keep on reading the news the whole morning?" I asked as I took a seat at the table.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhavIhCaDbI
"Nope. Just looking at 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOzwqw3Qc3Z
messages," Collins replied. "Zoey sent me one. She said she will be 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHhRw5RL7Q
coming back late at night with the others."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOl2A7ZTvMA
"Are they having a good time?" I got a slice of bread that laid on the middle of the table and was applying marmalade on it.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRmLGWQ8o9
"You know Zoey. She doesn't take any opportunity for granted when she is in some glamorous place."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKV5GYIwSI
"True." I shrugged as I got another slice of bread.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBT4RjWds3u
"She even sent Collins a picture," said Lee. She turned to face Collins as she jerked her head. "Show her."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2cml7cNDTo
Collins handed his 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJfrExZUZ5
tablet over to me and I took it. Zoey took a selfie of herself with the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡReodUe64SJ
other Toxins, G-Dragon and TOP behind her. They were all cheering and 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkTvszzU2N
raising their hands up in the air. I smiled. Looks like they were really1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeRDAg8wLZc
having a great time.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcjNRCpLlgv
"Is it me or is that the Eiffle Tower behind them?" I asked.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiV1PhhrkFo
"It sure is," said Lee, raising a cup of coffee to her lips.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLA4Xc0qiO
I mumbled. I had always wanted to go to Paris and see the Eiffle Tower. These guys were so lucky. Boo hoo for me.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdxpsgj5awE
"They should have as 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGsbSy79Pr7
much fun as they could possibly can," said Collins as I gave him back 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDng7Ad7dW5
the tablet. "They are in for a lovely treat."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡooXEtq7ADP
"What? Is it about the song?" I looked at Collins.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdh3YdIB4eK
"No, it's not about the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ldFKFMisc
song. They already know they have a lot of work to do with the song when1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8AjX9u97dD
they get back. I'm talking about something else."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KvRrCkTfj
I looked at Lee who sat 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg02anJzcCX
opposite me. I gave her a look that told her to tell me what Collins 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3twssJJ0Qs
meant. But she looked at me with a worried expression. That meant she 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJTUKgvj2L
didn't have the slightest clue of what Collins was talking about.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUQn6JSN4S
"What are you talking about Collins?" I asked as I poured myself a cup of coffee.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQKEUFfG7D
"Oh, you will see," said Collins with a huge grin on his face.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0a8BCfvwI
I almost shuddered when Collins smiled. I'd never liked that smile. That only meant Collins had something up his sleeve.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfz9eNPy8kh
"You can tell us, Collins. I won't tell the others."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMNFkkhcbN
"If I tell you, I'll 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUk6lk3Y3E
just ruin everything. Just sit back and wait for things to happen. 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlsDbvnROcw
Finish your breakfast. We will be out of this place in a few minutes."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmBF18B9L9S
Collins got up from his 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡos8Z2d85yf
chair and walked away with a satisfied look on his face. How I wish I 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJU4TEiUDd
knew what he was thinking. Whatever he planned for us seemed rather 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoAGfBtb1qA
amusing to him and might turn out bad for some of us.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4B7zZ9cYm
"What do you know?" I 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDMGjI3dMp
asked Lee, immediately I knew that Collins was in his room. I leaned 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwIFOTSRgne
forward to look at her straight in the eye. I seemed more like a 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv8c92gcm1j
detective asking questions to a criminal.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa059Vj31HK
"I don't know," Lee 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXf5E8zLEI5
replied with a shocked look on her face. "I am as surprised as you are. 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSWeRrBlKLK
And besides, I wasn't with Collins the whole day of yesterday."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3IZzk6A9gv
I knew something was up 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvFQn3F0ueI
when Collins wasn't around yesterday. I wondered what he and Yang 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsIoTZczsDo
Hyun-suk had planned this time. Collins had a happy look on his face.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQCCvxBQk6A
"This is not good," I said as I leaned back on my seat.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5LZoMKhuHy
"I don't think it's that bad," said Lee. "Whatever they have planned, will be okay. Even for you."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRv5L2HZS8r
"Well, hopefully." I blew out a puff of air and shook my head as I thought of what happened to G-Dragon and I yesterday.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOzGxJ0tOQm
"Hey, what's wrong?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6d1wd8tvw
"I think G-Dragon and I aren't on good terms again."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyj2rQa7VK2
"What? What happened?" Lee looked shocked and then again, confused.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoBBQTBXPil
"Things were going so well before things went down the drain when Zoey and TOP came to YG yesterday."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdEB3koaAjp
Lee leaned her head backwards and let out a huge murmuring sound. "Don't tell me Zoey ruined everything."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFbc9miDFe
"Well, kind of," I said 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcBohLnjgXc
as I thought of what happened and who to blame. "It's complicated. And 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zJMSswLkd
to be honest, I don't who to blame. But it wasn't entirely their fault."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOG9UF7rIGq
"Eat up. You will need all the energy to sing that song. We'll talk about this later."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXhphymHllt
"Okay."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ469ytivxAy
I was just done eating my breakfast when Collins came to tell us that it was time to go. I carried the guitar and my notebook.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNnh6Lbu4v2
Lee, Collins and I soon 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvRX1UtKnT
left the hotel and we were at YG. To be honest, I felt kind of nervous. I1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8ba6p5Vqx
was going to perform the song in front of Collins and Yang Hyun-suk but1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcwL1gJ8Wi5
it felt like I was going on the X Factor auditions just to be judged 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTpLtFxnmTJ
afterwards. Collins did say the song sounded amazing. I just wondered 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXHZ0W7pKDq
what Yang Hyun-suk would say.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFh10pbP79K
I was waiting in th 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd398IjoMJM
recording studio, waiting for Collins and Yang Hyun-suk. I kept telling 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2XhXA2s2zr
myself that everything was going to be alright and I shouldn't worry 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18aJLJxrzI
because I had gone through all of this several times. But today, I was 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4bjFc9RH7
edgy and my heart was beating so fast.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5st8M8NS3
I was pacing up and down1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzdBbauIEXS
with agitation written all over my face when the door to the studio 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXIHJVvKJK
opened. I turned to the door and Lee came in with Taeyang and his 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxz38RCLzw
girlfriend, Hyo-rin. Well, this is a surprise. I never thought I would 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUM6RRFzKTf
ever meet Hyo-rin again. Well, not today when I'm about to sing a song 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqRQovjju8N
and I was so nervous.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxrD6I2YWZa
"Here she is," said Lee,1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVe7S8cJfDt
turning to face Taeyang and Hyo-rin. "I've tried to calm her down but 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKf557njLq9
she can't stop pacing up and down like an ant. Maybe she will listen to 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8HiO6d1av
you, Tae."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDHCgCsNH7p
I frowned at Lee and I 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzKwdcNHjs
wanted to snap at her but I brushed it off. She hadn't even made an 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzu4Ep6EhOi
effort to try and calm me down. She had left me all alone. What a 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq8s8rj2IVx
friend.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3IFNbuNX5F
"Hi, Tae," I said and walked over to Hyo-rin and gave her a hug.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaNFaQ2YLcR
"I never thought I would see you again," I said to Hyo-rin with a smile after I hugged her.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDeNrohBLMY
"I told Taeyang that I 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DtB7eEl01
wanted to see you," said Hyo-rin. "Looks like I decided to come and see 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6JLXAhIJsi
you at the right time when you're about to sing the song."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhcRL4EAgZW
"Our manager called me 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJvDGegEuh
to come to the studio and listen to the song," said Taeyang, answering 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTCTWRIVHK
the puzzled look on my face. "Hyo-rin came to see me and heard my 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3JNaGoPXGv
conversation on the phone. That's why she wanted to come and see you."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfXiarsmvdP
"Thanks," I said. "Maybe with you guys around I might just calm down a little bit."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZ183Je9O4
"I'll go and check on the managers and see what's taking them so long," said Lee as she started to head out of the room.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsMx66SehH
I wanted to call out to her and tell her to let it be. I didn't want our managers here just yet. But she had already left.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfKyBePnsQ
"So, where are the others?" Hyo-rin asked as she took a seat on the comfortable leather couch and Taeyang followed.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSesSzTcuaA
"They left for Paris," I answered. I was still standing with my arms folded.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6B4OZVOi4Q
"Oh, they left with GD," said Taeyang. "He told me last night."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhKCTyrRVjo
"Ya, these guys are having a ton of fun right now," I said as I looked at my fingers.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhNJMfcGQh
"But how come you didn't go with them?" Hyo-rin asked.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVbeFpC2NaP
"I had the song to finish up. Trust me, it wasn't easy. But I had help before they could leave for Paris."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksVukSBKN3
"Looks like you're always the one stuck here working hard while the others go out and have fun."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO5HnGUKaX2
"Ya. Looks like it." I smiled slightly.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyrJCmnB3T5
"You managed to finish the song?" Taeyang asked.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1KC1AwDcE
"I did. Want to take a look at the lyrics?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ85O09YYTl2
"Sure."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOrcq1Ly0Jd
I gave Taeyang my 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorazkh1rcM
notebook and with Hyo-rin beside him, they looked at the lyrics 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNFQXO1Bm9
together. I couldn't help but smile at the two of them. They looked so 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKB09ogoMH
cute together.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBUNil4Ibsy
"I can't wait for you to sing the song for us," said Hyo-rin as she looked at me. "The lyrics sound really good."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeLCVC5rK3E
"Thanks. I was singing 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiT13p0jdp5
the song while playing the guitar the whole night. I had to make it work1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUzGgtDBSQ
on the second verse and since the song is mixed with English and 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJw44Ij1oz1
Korean, I just had to make it perfect."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGPsne58Piu
"You can read Korean?" Hyo-rin asked.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmiPOkWKZ1L
"Well...not really," I 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHUmmMuXnkk
said shrugging my shoulders. "I had to learn the Korean alphabet and the1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4GxXJsPsI
vowels. And with GD and TOP's help yesterday, I was fine with it."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVfJt07ROkS
"Wow. Pretty smart," said Hyo-rin with a smile on her face.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7eM1lmMm3l
"Sam is totally smart," said Taeyang. "And this song is going to be a huge hit."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjRMKiH4Ciw
I couldn't help but smile at their sweet compliments. That made me forget about my fear. For now.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKCfP6aTu6
The door suddenly flew open and Seungri and Daesung came in. Seungri rushed to hug me when he first saw me.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡck5Q9VGcec
"Hey, I missed you so much," said Seungri.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTsREkkmKL
"Ya, me too," I said as I tried to breathe. Seungri always hugged me so tight.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMfQcb4IjV
"Hey, Sam," said Daesung as he came over to hug me.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ45ODco76kA
"Hi," I blushed when we hugged and I smiled like a fool.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9FXxaK5xGA
"So, when do we hear the song?" Seungri asked, looking so excited.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ75AlJVTwgI
Before I could reply, a voice came at the door. Yang Hyun-suk's voice.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLryQb4CBfA
"Right now."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6poqjDWdzt
We all turned towards 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl8sFyvs8Nv
the door. Yang Hyun-suk, Collins, Lee and one of YG's music producers 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzaKYd86Ac
came in. This was it. I couldn't help but feel my palms get so sweaty.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF81iLoQiYl
When everyone got 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ492pDdPZB7
settled onto the couch, I sat facing them sitting on a long stool and 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0VXhmKC4j
holding the guitar. I looked on at the others and all I wanted was to 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1XlDrHb3Ze
run out of the room.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNk2TrDLrcP
"We're ready when you're," said Yang Hyun-suk.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTN16HxmuK
I nodded my head and my 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDziRL5bmG
heart couldn't stop beating so hard. I tried to settle properly with the1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqylAC6dhZE
guitar on my lap, but it felt so heavy like it was the first time when I1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJjhVUVH7x
ever got to play it.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Gb1oolbWH
I felt a break of sweat 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5vn86iEIO
would start to appear on my forehead. I blew out a puff of air and 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQchVwv5HOC
stared at the audience. Daesung gave me an encouraging smile and I 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpO0NXSXPP
slightly smiled back. I relaxed myself for a bit and closed my eyes as I1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQe0MtWl8bm
strung the strings on the guitar.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBeVh6WYvdK
I started to sing as I 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmkwega9fqF
played the instrument. My fear soon left me as I sang. It was going well1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2fdLDZFbLV
so far. Then I came to the second verse where most of the lyrics were 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgxMv2aWqb
in Korean. I thought I would stumble and say something wrong but I 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1cxpgoTDbk
didn't. Well, I hope so.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXdpuiz7sQ2
As soon as I was done 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ60gFL6Uf5
singing the whole song, I looked up at everyone. I had been trying to 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkewUw1zIip
avoid their gaze the whole time so that I wouldn't really mess up with 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfRNiskd2kf
the song. I did get a few glances of their faces here and there, but I 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6h5aYOTEV
was staring above their heads the whole time and closing my eyes. I just1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWbemiiKv9A
hoped they liked it.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoF1pXBjISo
The studio was still 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3fV9cnivyh
quiet. No one had said a word and I got scared. Wasn't it good enough? 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJPAWUpehB
Why weren't they saying anything? I looked on at Yang Hyun-suk and he 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡake1E7HGPm
had a grim look on his face. Oh, no.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡExLtLWuxeR
Yang Hyun-suk cleared 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ASaSvlw4H
his throat. I knew he was going to speak first. Yikes! Not him. I would 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMVL3kJYxRR
rather he said what he wanted to say last. I crossed my fingers.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0DQC2R5JgU
"Well, Sam," started Yang Hyun-suk. "The song is really....."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygIu6ExEQu
This was it. The hammer 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtAiOefw2Wx
blow to my career. I wanted to close my eyes as I waited for any hurtful1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpczAbkp71W
word ready to come out of his mouth. I knew it was going to sting.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYrHg9SfLOx
"....incredible."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWrj2XlN1m
I opened my eyes and I 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAZhl6m817T
couldn't believe that word just came out of his mouth. I looked up at 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6z8aCfTie9
him and he started to clap his hands. The others followed. There was a 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPbg4hY6WN
round of applause in the room and I couldn't help but smile to myself. 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgknvomuraJ
It was such a relief. I could finally breathe.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNdoiuCRUQb
"I've to admit, when 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wbTdSZTfH
Collins told me that the song was good, I didn't believe him," said Yang1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHt3L5V1yHP
Hyun-suk, as he stood up from the couch. "It's just incredible."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6NuQMxYrav
"Thank you," I said as I bowed my head.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9B7Ws9KQhK
"You better start working on it," said Yang Hyun-suk. "Today."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIHQr0okVTq
"We sure will," said Taeyang as he came up to me. "That was mind blowing, Sam."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkOVVSafpV6
"Thanks," I said as I jumped off the stool. "I hope my Korean was okay."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Mj6zmSMQF
"Are you kidding me? You sounded amazing," said Seungri.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZP7fHi4uR
"I agree," said Hyo-rin. "You sung in Korean like you've known that language your whole life."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWVDqV9BHrG
I couldn't stop smiling 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVjE2BzHfQ
at the others. I kept on receiving praises from the others including 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvUj3cbc2I
Daesung who said that I had such a beautiful golden voice. I blushed and1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGn2li96AHO
told him that wasn't true. To me, there was a big difference between a 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2yw69utDvA
good voice and a golden one.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXxtUOQTx9h
Immediately our managers1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjxmAwB5pN
left with Lee, we went over to join the music producer by the audio 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrzbt4PNNIQ
engines and the multi track console. Above the console was a huge window1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKoIgHPuVZH
that showed the live room where we the artists sing and play any 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK23IHOmc7w
musical instruments.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGeLcyZg3v
This was always the hard1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0mKDSwAZR
part of producing a track. Making the melodies and to find the right 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaigLb8qcDG
tune for the song. I still had the tune of the song stuck in my head. 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTtMp3cpW5n
But it was going to be difficult to make it sound right now that we had 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT7WyfY8hf1
to use auto tunes and electric beats.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtRoMkpxVQv
An hour had passed and I1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlq94rSV11
was already feeling so tired. Making the soundtrack was so hard. And 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAGA37e2WPY
this time, I got so tired so quickly. Must be that I really didn't have 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5KKUR2W6Mu
enough sleep last night. I was having a whole lot of fun with Daesung, 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtEOOEuqQj
Seungri and Taeyang around. I admired Hyo-rin who sat leisurely on the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBFLsDhStQ
couch and would come up and join us whenever she felt like it.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhXmnoCrlB
"It's been an hour and I1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26SDKFZget
already feel so tired," I mumbled as I leaned by head backward as I sat1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYrHYShOd74
on a chair next to the music producer. "This is so hard."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0NkBjOQCgF
"Mind if I give you a massage?" Seungri asked as he came to stand behind me.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoiZ9D2zrpK
"No. I wonder what's wrong with you sometimes," I said as I rubbed my neck. "I don't need a massage."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHlCwxAD0a4
"Trust me, you're so 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCj0mg504aB
tense," said Seungri as he laid his hands gently on my shoulders. 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡirvSE4T8UA
"You've been working too hard. You definitely need a massage."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLaeYNSxhKn
"No, Seungri." I tried to brush Seungri's hands away but he didn't budge.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZUGLri6JQ
"Come on, Sam," said Hyo-rin, looking up from her phone. "Just let him massage you. The maknae always gets what he wants."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxrFA1RwVrx
"Oh, please." I rolled my eyes. "I never let Daniel do whatever he wants. Why should I let Seungri?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlloTb923RZ
"Sam's right. And besides, Seungri can't give a proper massage," said Daesung.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRXSDgF6pg
"Yes, I do!" Seungri snapped at Daesung.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcyI19HGGgq
"No you don't!" Daesung snapped back.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU55Ey1Dp1A
"I'm not going to talk about it," said Seungri as he started to relax my muscles on my shoulders.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkE5ghobFp
"Mmmm." I murmured in 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1HCqAmW5L
pleasure as I smiled and closed my eyes. I could feel my body relax. 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVnxteyeHqy
"You're really good, Seungri. I might just hire you as my personal 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE9vK52h3oB
masseur."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbLl0IxOikf
"Thank you. I would definitely be your personal masseur."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUfoIBPouj8
I heard Daesung mutter to himself and I smiled. Looks like someone was jealous.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAmAQzhu4Dh
The music producer soon 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtRNuZWj8t
decided to take a break and he left. We made the studio more like our 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡneTflf1oSn
own crib. We sat by the couch chatting and laughing. I was even playing 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv2yAj0PGS1
with the guitar and we were singing some random songs together. It was 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG70Nv4NoTt
so much fun. Lee came in with our lunch and afterwards we were back to 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtztqaX5OJW
recording the track.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0MfNhSu3Lt
We spent another two hours recording, when Collins came into the room.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcnILORckS
"Hey, Collins," I said as I turned to look at him, removing the headphones from my ears.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhvnzVbSqD
"I want you guys to do me a favour," said Collins.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9BHDg40rC
"What is it?" Taeyang asked as he also turned around to look at Collins.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxpiTCUeR8
"Zoey and the others will be coming later on in the evening, so I want you guys to go and pick them up."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpf421nYLrL
I raised my eyebrow at Collins. "Why don't you do it? I mean, it's never a big deal for you, right?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh8mErHY19d
"I'm busy, Sam. So I was1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPKGdFw50hw
thinking that you guys should do it. It will be good for you guys to 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT7GpFsrL37
catch up with all that's happened in Paris."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRow4FdqWiV
"Let me guess, you're 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWkhg2vHli4
avoiding all the talking and yapping from Zoey." Daesung and Seungri 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk08qglFg9Y
were snickering and I couldn't help but smile.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgywJd7HvXJ
"You know me so well." Collins smirked. "But also it's because I have some important work to do."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfggS7qripv
Something told me his 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDmN66qSFob
important work had something to do with what he talked about this 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0rgJJtmBEU
morning. I dared not try to ask because he would brush me off like he 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhkcShuYJoS
always does.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDkW6eLFDJc
"Don't worry about it," said Daesung. "We will go and pick them up."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ6jYjYbMNi
"Thanks, guys," said Collins and he left the room.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSsUoVAilxL
It was late in the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTdKLgTxrsv
afternoon and I was as tired as hell. I was leaning my head on the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEm8FaZwWXs
console, careful not to mess around with the buttons and all. I had my 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA83mR5zh7U
eyes closed and I could slowly feel myself drifting away to sleep. 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRmW283X7S
Taeyang pulled up the headphones from my ears and that made me sit up.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgatGhpb7i7
"What did I miss?" I asked, sounding drowsy and rubbing my eyes, when I knew nothing much had happened.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdxOGvSXQ41
"Nothing. You just dosed off for a few seconds," said Taeyang.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIOpo6khIhi
I looked beside him and I1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBLCdehiDz
realised Daesung and Seungri weren't on their seats. I looked behind 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAsNDfVzbRu
and I saw them on the couch with Hyo-rin looking a little tired. The 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5wFlvoj8f
music producer had already left the room and I had taken the liberty of 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUtVNHjAcyn
leaning my head on the console.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiVllvgH9WJ
"I always hate this part1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBR9Pju18Wm
of making a music track. As much as I love producing music, it gets me 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ54Q3I2t566
so worked up and tired," I said as I leaned my head back onto the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB4j133IAyw
console.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs97OcSEhHk
"Ya, I understand you," said Taeyang. "I wonder what time these guys will get back."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeW1m7OTeUc
"Didn't Collins say at night?" I asked through a muffled tone.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO7G1RQSl1d
"I wonder what time."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzsyai7lqb
"Wait." I pushed my head1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCmgUGTECq
upwards and felt like my head was spinning out of control. I was still 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ27ePVbH9P
feeling sleepy and I had to hold my head for a while as though I was 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjgxGEMFZp
drunk and the world around me was spinning.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMEwPEj1Z6N
"Whoa! Are you okay, Sam?" Hyo-rin asked as she came over.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpzslgM9XVG
"Ya, I'm fine. Just tired." I pulled out my phone out of my pocket and decided to call Collins.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7szrnVHxu
"You know, if you're tired you shouldn't come with us to the airport," said Daesung. "You look really tired."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtIdi8a8cSP
"I didn't sleep well 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgnh28yOoh
last night," I said as I rubbed my eyes. The phone screen was all 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡul9LTwPTDv
blurring. "I stayed up all night and slept on the floor."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMusHPWyf87
"Ya, you better not come with us, my little panda," said Seungri. "You need a whole lot of rest."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkKaBVV5l8
"You're right." I soon 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKuPoWrpKo
dialled Collins number and asked him what time the plane would actually 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTD7aIk0HJn
arrive and that I wouldn't be able to go.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhGL2QlI5F
"He said they might come at nine in the evening," I said when I cut the call. I was so sleepy I felt like I couldn't stand up.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrxneua0CC
"Well, since we are all done here, you can go back to the hotel and rest," said Taeyang. "We will take you."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQHzmVgN5T
"Alright. Thanks."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXNc8BxUr3k
"I'm coming too," said Daesung.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvkGU0Nlx6A
"And so will I," said Seungri.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZOPRB4zmo
"Guys, it's fine. Taeyang and Hyo-rin will take me," I said with a small smile on my face as I faced Seungri and Daesung.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bJ6VXt3WK
Immediately I left the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMw0cWMRort
studio with Taeyang and Hyo-rin, Hyo-rin couldn't help but say, "was it 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSaS5ndKlSc
just me or Daesung and Seungri were fighting over you?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRAzsyin5Pf
"Pfft! Fighting over me? How?" I asked trying my best not to smile through my tired face.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5Tntq4wxK
"Well, the time Seungri was massaging you, Daesung was totally jealous," Hyo-rin said. "What do you think, Tae?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjlbgOcD99k
"Well, I think they were just playing around," said Taeyang as we entered the elevator.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOpIAE6Xan
Phew! Taeyang hadn't 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQaNPMmVdIc
noticed or else he would have agreed with Hyo-rin. But anyway, I was 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0XH7iuVGK
tired and was in no state of talking about who liked me or not.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXEOpSxDnPV
The next thing I 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡycD9DtJ7vS
remember was lying on my comfy pillows back at the hotel and my eyes 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsisD2nQgSY
roll back.I covered myself with a blanket and I felt like I was sleeping1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJacNoMGVM
on clouds, slowly drifting to sleep.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡERsxHnj3dQ
I woke up by the sound 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAG7nHkXC2V
of my phone ringing and I squinted after I opened my eyes and closed 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡojNGTMkD5N
them again. I murmured as I tried to look for my phone. My arm moved 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3uNVq6FdV
here and there on the bed and I couldn't remember where I had put my 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM8Ts96aX9I
phone. I was too lazy to even open my eyes to look for it.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeAOoiOkfDD
I reached out for the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ21d53819f
drawer beside the bed and as I fumbled on the surface looking for the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXLccm7QPw
phone, I heard someone come in the room and before I could open my eyes,1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeWAin5MzUt
I felt something in the palm of my hand. Was that my phone?1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4LfYOZjYmi
I fully opened my eyes and indeed, the phone was in my hand. I looked up and Lee was the looking down at me.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFETuwPT7OI
"How did you know I needed my phone?" I asked.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG6qLC79wRD
"I could hear it ringing1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV0s5HjJ4nc
and I was just passing by your room. Thought you would still be asleep 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNW5v4fnD3g
but when I came in you were struggling to find it," Lee answered.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRfkHrj3jQi
"Thanks," I said as I 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSip7FQ9WE
sat up on the bed. My phone had stopped ringing and I had to wait till I1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUdSxLX8RnS
could let my eyes adjust to see who had called.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjAdu1c5NDI
"I hope this is the last time you ever stay up all night," said Lee. "You looked really tired when you came back."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGi34te05XD
"You know I will keep on doing it time and again," I said as I looked at my phone. I had two missed calls.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Il0hMHqb8
"Never mind. I'll order supper. You must be hungry."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQg2CaelRV
"Thanks. I'll be out in a minute."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0YJDufRb9
Lee left the room and I 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr7I84oKGA0
went on to look at my phone. I had missed calls from Zoey, and this was 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxP8egr8ai
just 9:30 PM. They must have already landed.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Cas1237p5
"Hey, Lee," I called out to Lee as I found her watching a Korean drama series holding a bowl of popcorn. "Is Collins around?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7CcmRiCjf
"No," Lee answered, putting popcorn in her mouth.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvXtAWRCNh
I joined her on the couch and took a handful of popcorn from the bowl. "Did he tell you where he went?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0O6Q6TjhJs
"No. But I bet it's got to do with what he told us this morning."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSoZGRZzWF
"Of course." I rolled my eyes. "I should have known. Are you watching Boys Over Flowers?" I pointed at the TV screen.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcyR6p43bKN
"Yes, it is. Your supper is on the table. Go get your plate and come over and sit. This series is so awesome."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHAMLMtBh25
I dashed over to the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRywXeVYutX
dining table where there was a plate of spaghetti and meatballs. I 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxVFCEl9mD
quickly dashed back to the couch and the two of us watched the series.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0GVFXYodtD
It was now 10 PM and 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNkg8LnWdQ8
Zoey and the others still hadn't arrived. I looked at my phone to see if1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpufrkKjRoT
there were any messages or missed calls but nothing. I wonder where 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZKsmqEQqrT
they were right now.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCrfWYcIEcH
"Hey, what's wrong?" Lee asked as she looked at me. The episode had ended and a commercial came up.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWJeDCUs2w
"Nothing. I was wondering why these guys are not back yet."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcnrFdbL8M2
"Who knows. I just hope they didn't get into any trouble, even on the road." Lee laughed.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOzN5fhRlpm
"I hope not. After what happened at Caribbean Bay, I don't think they would want to go through something like that again."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSv0Ab4zgmW
"Why? You don't want to help them out again?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ594iP9HmK9
"Nope. I already had my own share of getting those guys out of trouble."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡytS47afmSg
"True."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZHnndU2kJ
We soon heard the elevator doors opening and we both got up from the couch to the hallway to see who had arrived.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKluUlhPRH
Two bell boys came out 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzGIh9N0uV5
of the elevator first and I was confused until I saw they were bringing 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXALHicwbN
in boxes and wrapped packages. Lee and I looked at each other.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqL0hrMm2FI
"Zoey." We both said at the same time.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmHYgUFzRt
There were so many gift 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9NXpitwnLp
boxes and packages from Paris, Lee and I had to help out with the bell 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV4VVLLRRLD
boys with bringing everything in. Some of the boxes also had to come 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwvuNPqX0GP
into the lounge. I was glad Collins wasn't here yet. He was going to be 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYIpEiKNPtr
so pissed.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqnMKkLlH1w
"Where is Zoey?" I asked one of the bell boys as we put in some boxes in the lounge.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNbKNSkuNvU
"They are downstairs," he answered.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJIwislYTJ
After we were done putting in the packages, Lee and I followed the bell boys into the elevator heading to the ground floor.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgS3mne4aB
When the doors flew 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZbQqOstZcg
open, I saw the Toxins and BigBang in the lobby all indulged in some 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWlCkyqB7y
conversation. Even Hyo-rin was there. They didn't seem to notice Lee and1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmT4DcYJUIX
I until Daniel looked towards the elevator.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ33SpEPoqmd
"Sam! Lee!" Daniel exclaimed and he ran towards me.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0phCBAQeM
"Hey!" I was surprised when he came to hug me. "You've never come running towards me like this in a while."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡesoVJvYnRD
"I just missed you," said Daniel. "You too, Lee."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMEc9Ji85H
As Daniel hugged Lee, Mike came to hug me. I was even more surprised.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0IoBthHgms
"Guys, you've been away for a day and you're acting like you've been away for months," I said.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb5xKFXmwxt
"Paris was nice, but not without you, Sam," said Mike.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiS4Xs4aVdY
"Don't tell me Zoey was acting like a control freak," said Lee teasingly.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5xBDcWgS9
"Hey," Zoey came over to us. "I tried to be really reasonable this time around. Don't blame me."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6CaUPxF7d8
"We aren't blaming you for anything, Zoey," I said. "How was Paris?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡptc8D6MkeT
Zoey hugged me instead. "I missed you so much, my little kitty!"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpSileCgBq7
I raised an eyebrow. 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHyuw7UTNY
Something was definitely up this time. Christine also came to join in 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6xozwS4yf4
the hug. What did these guys do in Paris for them to behave like this?1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfoHMJpxLU
"Okay. Enough," I said as I shook off Zoey and Christine away from me. "Can someone please tell me why you're acting like this?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZCtKyIF1j
"Everyone just missed 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhn0DXJJWX
you. That's all," this time it was TOP who answered as he came towards 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ73qHGWUDsX
me with his arms outstretched. "Aren't you also going to give me a hug?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOec0krMoH
I rolled my eyes at him,1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKb3pbKwmTh
feeling rather hilarious that he had asked for a hug. I took a few 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTjF5kJSRx
steps towards him. I couldn't understand why I had a stupid smile on my 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXf9d7Q4j5Q
face when I hugged him.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAYNWWz92XQ
"I missed you too, TOP," I said after we broke away from each other.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8xcDINCz4
"Wait! You missed TOP 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZzMGi3NGi
but not us?" Zoey asked. "I'm so upset. After buying you all those gifts1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIsrpRRZjxW
and you didn't miss me? I thought you were my best friend."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9YlAoLKWGF
I always loved it when 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiHsVwOm5n2
Zoey acted like a jealous best friend. I turned to look at her with a 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK5AJjgdYEy
smile and before I could reply, someone else did instead.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPTdxp6F2Y3
"Don't mind her, Zoey. Looks like she only cares about TOP instead of anyone else."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDBuaicRuX
For a moment, that voice1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxLpO3NK4Z
sent a chill down my spine and I didn't even want to turn around. I 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVlA4y8jdmZ
clenched and unclenched my fists. His voice was so full of bitterness it1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3kaVEJWs8j
almost sent me into an outrage. I don't know why this time around, I 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwqGC6sFQM
wasn't afraid or scared of what G-Dragon thought of me. I was tired that1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7vmgR8SH7
he was still acting the same way he had left.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbRicle1iQP
I was really confused. I1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡULgQaqo0LB
wasn't so clear why he was mad at me. And I hated the fact that I had 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbzNY4ExYUK
to think around in circles just to figure out what was wrong with him. 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7oExDtEUo2
This time it wasn't the jealousy he had for TOP. It felt way more 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMZ6EsUkGP
personal and it had to do with me.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUlh8ulyxw
I had no other choice 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2pTKRfrYr
but to turn around to face him. I made sure that my face didn't reveal 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7TH6ldlK3I
how I truly felt. G-Dragon was standing right next to Hyo-rin and 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2RlyLYP2UW
Taeyang. I managed to put up a smile before I could say anything.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTt6foCvJyl
"Hi, GD. How was Paris?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FfQ8blEK3
By the look on his face,1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyedCLLWW9
I bet he didn't expect me to greet him. I wasn't going to give him want1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9W5XJpdQx1
he wanted. If I had answered by talking back at him, things weren't 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1rl0RVfpAL
going to end pretty tonight.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Jb1yLIDvM
"Paris was okay," G-Dragon answered. "I heard you managed to finish the song and played it to everyone today."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmnUAf8cftO
"Ya, I did."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl8wZuMzMiS
"The song will make you want to dance all day long," said Daesung.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWmXkz603ah
"Ya, it's pretty awesome," said Seungri.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDFMcTBmVoK
"Can't wait to hear it,"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZIDJStkYL
said Daniel as he came to stand beside me and nudge me by the shoulder.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2EBM16AH7
"You should give us a preview when we go upstairs."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7iC1f9t2n
"Anything for you, 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hZSbE7ipl
guys," I said as I pinched my brother's cheek. "That's how much I care 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCiREMYjtbN
about you. Unlike some people who think I don't miss them." I turned to 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0WWfQTGzOW
look at Zoey.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbBjFmqopUC
"Don't mind her," said Christine. "You just know how she is."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfIIvvquDMS
"You guys better go and rest," said Taeyang. "We have a busy day tomorrow."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWiiCJLUSlH
"Okay, we better go then," said Seungri. "See you guys tomorrow."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF2plTQsUOP
After saying bye to each other, we all went our separate ways.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡek9k41b6oD
"You know Collins is 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzlUDOjfrJs
going to kill you, right? With all those gifts you came with," I said to1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPyOG3GcVnY
Zoey and the others as we were all in the elevator going up to our 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4gT5EMPJN3
floor.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzHipQusfsQ
"Don't worry, we also got a few presents for him too," said Mike.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpygqquAgFc
"And you think bringing him gifts will help?" Lee asked. "You guys are in a lot of trouble."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGoLMjqls0
"This won't be the first time," said Zoey. "I mean, we're always in trouble no matter the cause."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1I8PUvuz8
I looked at Zoey and wondered why she would say that. Did they have a little problem in Paris? I hope not.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGQZCgi1gaC
"We better sort out all 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp8sNLo4wQH
the gifts before Collins gets here. You don't want to get on his bad 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0QA0Uhd5y8
side, like you usually do," I said as we got out of the elevator on our 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmd5ppjpPO
floor.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkO1nkL8zkn
Sorting out all the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNHqva7ixB2
packages and gifts took a whole lot of time than I had expected. The 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm38pwodzVv
gifts in the hall and also in the lounge were just too many. These guys 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13VLY2y9IP
had really bought a lot of stuff.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZcvEQkiCCs
The boys had brought a 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRusONtdtJ
handful of video games, including some expensive designer t-shirts and 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKtnJWACwYD
jeans from Chanel. Expensive French cologne for men and watches with 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSCVS8jtfp
expensive designer shoes.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jcloYevYh
As for Zoey and 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWgRyHl5cCa
Christine, well, you know what girls would like to buy if they ever go 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvhly6WOOs
to Paris. Designer shoes and dresses. Expensive perfumes and Zoey also 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1tB6LFIkm2
bought along with her some expensive jewellery.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEyFHIgvoG7
"G-Dragon was helping me1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKyKenh8jRe
out with picking the jewellery," said Zoey when she showed us a pretty 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrM1GgMiN6S
gold necklace with matching gold earrings.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDdp1YMgbU
"Wow, very pretty," said Lee as she looked at the jewellery.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhEsEo3vSeb
"Ya, very pretty," I said dully, looking at it briefly.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEIKkhDhSX6
We were sitting on the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0svIvKhGU
floor in the lounge sorting out the gifts. The ladies were huddled up in1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1i884OcxpE
one circle while the boys were next to us also sorting out their own 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJPXzwTpgg
stuff with Collins' too.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLy1h2nUpZi
"We also bought a beautiful necklace for you too," said Christine looking over the boxes behind her. "Where is it?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeiphdLu5sI
I was also searching for any jewellery box behind me when I stumbled over a box of Lindtt chocolates.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJR8p22ab3J
"Yum, is this for me?" I asked as I got the box and looked greedily at it.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Jl6wmDj8J
"Hey! It's for all of us," Zoey warned. "I know you love chocolates, but you don't have to be so selfish."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡybL1MF1cJA
"Since when have I ever been selfish?" I asked, as I opened the box.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhAQArijm3I
"Okay, you've never been selfish. But when it comes to chocolates...."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJI3jAMYcEa
"'But when it comes to chocolates.....'" I mimicked her. "At least I know how to share."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYzQSbG0EG
I distributed the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYJN7SfnfD
chocolates to everyone. Lee was trying on a pair of heels which looked 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdGVBjCi6R
so good on her while Zoey kept on looking for the jewellery box which 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeST6GWeQcm
was meant for me.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVCbYB3MATn
"Where is it?" Zoey muttered to herself as she looked at the other packages on the floor.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgF2LpCVJZY
"Don't worry about it," I said as I walked over to her. "We will find it tomorrow. We can't go through all these right now."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPhfn5AFia
"Ya, you're right," said Zoey. She had a gloomy look on her face. I could tell that she had bought that gift with lots of love.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJeDcxUVYZ
"But we better pack up some of these stuff," said Lee. "This place is in a mess and Collins might....."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEpzp04Wlth
When Lee just mentioned his name, the sound of the elevator doors opening was heard. Collins was here!1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBedRBkNHh
For a moment, time 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3oDKJhxSkt
seemed to have stopped and all of us in the lounge had stopped along 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCT89X3Up2D
with it. We all had our mouths open, looking at each other in shock. We 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2B8xNkqEkU
hadn't finished packing up and Collins would freak out when he sees this1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWKHvGQBNO
mess.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsYTRyIrLI
"Hey, guys I'm here!" came Collins voice in the hall.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxL41SLNr4
"What are we going to do?" Mike whispered as he looked at me.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQiOTfkT3e
"I don't know," I whispered. This was bad.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQp0o99F5o
"Hide," Zoey whispered.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGJgJMWRfg
For me, it kind of felt 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVsPrxw8Xw
pointless to hide. But not for the other four Toxins. Zoey went to the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfWKKYKJLBL
dining table and hid under the table. Christine, Mike and Daniel hid 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCXe25Nli0
behind the couch. Lee and I just stood there, static.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLludaHcnm
When Collins came to the1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5D93QopYLW
lounge, he stopped on his tracks. He was obviously trying to take 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUhlV8v17oU
everything in. His mouth was slightly open, trying to say something, but1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Uy5NI2t5j
he just couldn't.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ809a28IIQN
"Hey, Collins," I said.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFudQsFqx5X
"What is all this?" Collins asked when as he took a step into the lounge, looking around.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0UKlW9A7Tv
"Christmas came a little early," said Lee, with a smile.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtXyvBNs9l2
Collins looked over at Lee and noticed the heels she was wearing. "Those look nice."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡevHwtTG43K
"Thanks."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwF5T4TZnv
"Where are they?" Collins turned to look at me.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBn2YCUSnQE
"Who?" I asked.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdU5kmqyu3n
"You know who I'm talking about."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf0UB1NkdpO
"If you're talking about Santa's little helpers, they left a while ago." I said as I folded my arms.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxtUhgUXAX
"Santa's little helpers, alright," said Collins as he carefully walked around, avoiding to step on anything.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYB4gxYac7z
Collins went over to the1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDzJrTH17rh
dining table. There were a few gifts on the table and down on the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZeryaWYz8O
floor. Collins moved the presents down on the floor and Zoey was beaming1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrjij3YRAS
up at him.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbvYMp4LBdW
"Hey, Collins! Looks like you found one elf who stayed behind," said Zoey, beaming up at him.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6LuKPmNhmJ
"Where are the others?" Collins asked.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrx7G0C9PhK
Christine, Daniel and Mike came out from behind the couch and they all said, "hey, Collins!"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf2gNREfCAo
"Guys, what is all this?" Collins said as he looked around the lounge.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdeFiZmi5o2
"Gifts from Paris," said Zoey.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzHRanKz1y1
"But why did you get all this stuff? I hope you didn't use your credit cards."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5UiT5cXE6M
"Well..." Mike looked down at his feet.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWTJto3dk6
"Okay, great." Collins looked worn out if not frustrated. "I hope you didn't finish up all the money in your accounts."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRi1HUC3rZc
"I doubt it," said Daniel. "We made sure to be careful with what we were buying."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy4mqUPqLDu
"Ya, most of the stuff weren't bought by us, you know? If it came to the designer clothes, it was all from Chanel," said Zoey.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWkWhXM6JHb
"I'll know for myself when I get to see your bank accounts," said Collins.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5SOd11Uxo
"Here, we brought you an1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafbddXwobx
expensive watch too," said Daniel as he gave Collins a fancy looking 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsBdb6W1l6
box. A watch from Rolex. It was definitely expensive.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrH8tnwAXHs
"That's because you're the best manager ever," said Christine.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUnqPRWQBN6
"Thanks," said Collins, 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqMP2KkmEv
as he looked at the watch, looking rather impressed. "Do me a favour and1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJeMCI3mq6
finish clearing up all this. And also bring my gifts to my room. Okay?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxhNp1FG0L
Collins smiled at the rest of us and left the lounge.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDEvcRtQjC8
"Looks like he isn't really upset," said Lee. "He would have blown a big fuse already."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡms2duWXQ9v
Lee was right. Collins 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxfnHkxrDZ
wasn't really upset, but that smile he gave us before he left, made me 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZHI4FwELg
realise something. He might be upset, but I felt like he had already 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJviasDc9V7
arranged something to get back at us. And why not that which he and Yang1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡExY02vU9EH
Hyun-suk have planned for us? That for me would be the perfect payback.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXt3Pbl6MeX
That's if it is that bad enough to stun us all.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz21PkBWyji
"Okay, people, let's get done with this," said Zoey. "It's almost close to midnight."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMIu1aMy0NT
We continued sorting out1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgOM8KNf2M
everything and by midnight, the lounge had cleared up a little except a1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNP79bQFNju
few wrappers on the floor which we picked up and threw away in the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TBqRtvz6Y
waste bin which was overflowing with wrappers and empty boxes. And I 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxj1H4Llcfx
planned with the others to sing them the song tomorrow because it was 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4739J3ZlLY
already too late and we all needed to rest.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDY6hSqhFsk
We hadn't managed to 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq9ELaWfYLA
find the jewellery box with my necklace. Zoey thought maybe TOP or GD 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQ3Ig2j7nC
had it. I didn't like the thought that GD might have it. Getting it back1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUlSteTbSuw
from him was going to be difficult, looking at our current situation of1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcdUqWqzoYc
course.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoyIZUKkdpp
When we were all done and had retired to our rooms, Zoey quickly pushed me into the room when I was just coming into the room.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeD7uaAN8Y0
"Zoey, what's wrong with you?" I asked when she made me sit on the bed.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHNSgFaUVlF
Zoey went by the door and checked in the hall if there was anyone. Then she came back in and stood before me.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxO5onHqp89
"What is it, Zoey?" I asked. "What's so urgent?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1K2ql7fNpP
"Nothing much," said Zoey. "I just needed you in the room."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjzn40LjVyI
I looked at her with an 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKaXWEmEG4j
eyebrow raised. Something was definitely up and she looked like she was 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFW0KzkYit
stuck in between telling me what was bothering her or not.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEJBs79Lgx
"So, tell me what happened in Paris," I said as I took my Mr Panda into my arms. "How was the fashion show?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDyzRtiT8Jv
"It was fine," Zoey replied as she walked to the closet to get her pyjamas.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsJpF8Vr7mF
"Fine?" I looked at 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZcjuc2TAl
Zoey's back and then I looked at Mr Panda then back at her again. 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGN1YS0aYAk
"Knowing you, you would've said it was so exquisite or it was so 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbf3L7X6H5
awesome. What's happened to you? This isn't my best friend."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlX64Yen4hK
"Nothing happened," said Zoey as she took out her pyjamas and came back to put them on the bed.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg0sESf6Rdk
"Tell me, please!" I 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDruVKHwBhx
begged. I even made Mr Panda on my lap beg as well putting his tiny cute1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZc4WLBKsdw
paws together. "Nothing is not an excuse. You look like you want to 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLz7Np5xTOA
tell me something. So tell me!"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3UFGxgfRe
"Keep your voice down!" Zoey snapped at me as she tried to cover my mouth but I slapped her hand away.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ36bGDo2jmO
"Then what's wrong, Zoey? Did something happen in Paris?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUIvOlYbhDq
"Well, nothing much happened," said Zoey as she sat down on her bed and looked lost in thought.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgN6JEaQ0WI
"Hello! Earth to Zoey!" I snapped my fingers in front of Zoey's face. "You look so lost. Please tell me what's bothering you."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ5lYOigsnG
Zoey paused and looked at me for a few seconds. Then she slumped her shoulders and sighed. "Okay, I will tell you."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡleQp5Q5Pd8
I felt really excited 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KkrXqoy3s
like I was about to watch a blockbuster movie. I hugged Mr Panda close 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUsabQVaKY
to me. Ready for what's about to drop out of Zoey's mouth.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6aLRgDfqZI
"I don't know how I 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCKbA4NnAFE
should tell you this," said Zoey as she played with her fingers and was 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDk3QfwpbL1
staring somewhere else. "But when we got to Paris, we went to the Eiffle1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf2SrNb3Mjd
Tower."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWCXEiLj0R
"Ya, I saw the picture. 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1OPHiTs0fk
So much for going to Paris without me," I muttered. "You know I have 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1qnCtXNYEi
always wanted to visit the Eiffle Tower."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBz1T1jobDK
"Aren't you going to let me talk?" Zoey asked.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwdRKlgIqk
"Okay. Continue." I pressed my chin onto Mr Panda's head.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeAr62aexEr
"So we got to the Tower and we were having a good time as usual." Zoey paused as she licked her lips. "Then something happened."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP4LohnTe5M
"What?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ynCCPshW7
"When we got to the top 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOyWh4eAXpZ
of the Eiffle Tower, we were enjoying the view and I was so caught up 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6bp2ppKLCe
with looking at the bright lights of the city I didn't notice that the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdP90GrgCqO
others had left and it was just GD and I."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpf8WQ6ntpl
My eyes grew wide. I 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4f8uOpcFm
knew where all this was going already. And before I could let my best 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN0fA0ennmG
friend share her magical moment herself, I blurted it out.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05ElnNx1Ff
"You two kissed."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNV1S164vT
"What the...! Sam!" Zoey hit the bed with her hands. "How could you!"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5erCD7QUjZ
"I'm sorry." I hissed and covered my mouth. That wasn't supposed to happen.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hFeKTD45l
"Great! How did you know?" Zoey still looked pissed, but yet surprised.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1CyWSUsVDQ
"Well, you were in one 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc19nfE6lzH
of the most romantic cities in the world and you two were left alone, so1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGvuTdnqipc
for me, that was a perfect romantic scene."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsr8Zr9gqPD
"Smart."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbrrEjdRLKj
"Thanks. So, how was it?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0oINRuD1Xm
Zoey smiled like a fool,1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJvh6OEc1D
now that the secret was out in the open. "It was so unexpected but yet 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTET06GzyT
it was so magical at the same time."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2KtNFT3n5t
I couldn't help but 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYoSY4lx3p
smile. It's been a long time since she smiled like that. The last time 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZn5onTEkdN
she did, it was back in high school when she was going out with the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡddL4IXt6pw
hottest and yet popular guy in school and they kissed in front of 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qVJfYSome
everyone at the prom.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuiBzfwB7SF
"Oh my gosh, Sam," said Zoey rubbing her cheeks. She was blushing. "I can't stop smiling to myself."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ko9mSJnPj
"So you guys kissed, and then what?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDXWo06rzA
"Nothing really. We had to pretend in front of the others when we went down the Eiffle Tower like nothing had happened."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzHMyzx4Z7Y
"And? Anything else? 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAoDIZz5axs
What happened at the top of the Tower after you kissed?" I leaned 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx8UXyZE6bH
forwards with Mr Panda also eager to hear.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjs55VI9Svl
"When we were on top of 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOAxmDofct3
the Tower, when we kissed, he told me he liked me and kept on saying the1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa0vLY2cU0Y
most sweetest words ever. How he had always liked me."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFIBTvJGHiO
Well that's a bummer. 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxF9IYCDXIW
But to be honest, I expected it. I remembered he had also said those 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZmQGz9aZH
words to me too. But that was when he was drunk. Could it be that he 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhViH79ifF
really liked Zoey and not me?1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFnbpdu7EQ
I brushed that off. Why 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuBnQqaDf95
should I even care? I knew from the very beginning that GD wasn't in his1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfcJzfaoJF
right state of mind when he told me he liked me. I didn't really get my1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSLLQCbtWUM
hopes up with it.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0c3P62hNdY
"I even told Christine," said Zoey. "I just hope you don't tell Collins."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0vLblgx4f
"And why should I tell him?" I asked, shrugging my shoulders.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEQCWXMfzX
"Ya, you're right. And don't tell your brothers. They are going to make fun of me."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMfaHdpusU
"Telling my brothers is one thing I wouldn't do."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnevE7q0GTK
"Thanks, Sam."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ534PFQJ3Qc
"Hey, what are best friends for? We better go to sleep. We might leave for YG tomorrow really early."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5lT1LApfKQ
"Okay." Zoey hopped on her bed like a little child and started to change into her pyjamas.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVnoT52GeS
I left Mr Panda on the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9NYCaTYANv
bed and also went to the closet to get my pyjamas. When I changed, I 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYswO2npeiv
quickly went into the bed covers and put Mr Panda right beside me. I had1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPg6OnkG8U
gotten used to the stuffed panda being around whenever I slept. I 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfgskwTa8Un
looked over at Zoey who was already in her bed covers.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW9Ov9aFnbk
"Good night, Zoey," I said to her with a smile.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7xdKt9VKv3
"Good night," she replied. She turned to the other side to flip the switch beside the bed on the wall and the room went dark.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKPTSCi0zC
I laid my head on the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnCenPl7XH
pillow and just as I closed my eyes, I could hear Zoey giggling to 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHiXAM7DBR
herself. She was obviously texting G-Dragon on her phone and I couldn't 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn0bEELuJ8t
blame her. She was so happy when she talked to me about kissing him on 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg97VuL5FRp
the Eiffle Tower. And it was also probably a good thing that I had never1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL3mnQc4gyj
told Zoey what happened on Friday when GD came in drunk and told me 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgdCR4bYgH
that he liked me. I could only imagine what the whole scenario would 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTApcXgJHop
have been.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnY151skKnI
Zoey would have only 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA89tcOzAl0
felt guilty about it and would have confronted GD about playing the two 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhcrLimR2Fn
of us around. It wasn't like he kissed me anyway, so maybe I was a bit 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqpkH1ug9E
on the safe side. But it was still good that I didn't tell her anything.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1NL30UHlQ
To be honest, I was happy for Zoey. And when I heard her giggling again, I realised that I wouldn't want to hurt her.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNFxwAGHVb
I pulled Mr Panda closer1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1H8cahPjss
and cuddled him. I was soon drifting away into a deep sleep, eager for 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Rrh3UA553
what's to come when I woke up in the morning.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPFljfgIPW
***1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgNoUo4HNu
I was given a round of 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9LkXox5v8R
applause when I finished singing the song. I was in the lounge with the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Pd1I12Rej
Toxins and I stood before them as I sang the song. I didn't have a 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3amzJHyH0
guitar with me but I managed to sing it anyway.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6IiORC5Mer
"The song is incredible," said Zoey. "I never thought it would be this good."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16WaYHFPRM
"And your Korean is good too," said Christine.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡELSay3bZ20
"I can't wait to start working on the song," said Mike.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7QepyFB0Q4
"Then you better eat 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXRplswy5Fl
your breakfast," said Lee as she came in with the room service bringing 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAuM422Qze5
in our breakfast. "We have a long day ahead."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2dL9bnDSQ9
We went over to the dinning table and settled down. We were all having toast for breakfast.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4GgomEn9by
"I can't wait for us to 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0f4JN7F8QQ
go to the studio," said Zoey happily as she jumped excitedly on her seat1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFNMcZcBMAx
beside me. I could only tell why.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXhzzQ8mKS
Christine who sat 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzcyvKugHwN
opposite from Zoey coughed and I could tell that she just coughed out 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYI5Iur4Hsn
G-Dragon's name. Luckily, the boys hadn't even noticed. And by the look 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLGz4exxEC
on Lee's face, sitting directly opposite me, she already knew about Zoey1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡej4SggJXMR
and G-Dragon.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGOvk7pT1E1
When we were done 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvyita7HzNG
eating, we headed downstairs and as usual, there were paparazzi, 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5ThR17wEf
reporters and fans too. We entered into the SUV and we arrived at YG.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbci23sarP
"Hey, Sam," Zoey called out to me when we got out of the car. I turned to look at her.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfhRkQkAhu
"What is it, Zoey?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd502eMKMQK
"Do I look okay? I mean, is my hair on point, my make up?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMCjfpylBY
Mike growled loudly behind us as he came out of the car with Daniel right behind him. "The drama queen is at it again."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxg8jSON4D
"Can't you just zip up your mouth and let me worry about myself?" Zoey asked, rolling her eyes.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡidhS7RkUai
"That's the problem," 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsh0Bk8qHHk
said Mike as he came to stand in front of Zoey. "Once you start acting 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL3M1eEj3UJ
like this, something is definitely up or you're just trying to impress 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpT045QLhSu
someone. You've been acting really weird ever since we got to Paris."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorBypxq6Cl
Mike turned away and 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡajd2nUbQU2
headed straight for the entrance with Daniel. I could have sworn I saw 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡte93hNtBOJ
him smirk before he walked away. Could it be that he might know 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1RMW5u0mGD
something?1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1JRCnqMqQp
"Don't mind him," said Christine. "You know how these boys like to mock us. Let's go."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgA4oa2Ckc
We agreed with Christine1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TNl9Qt2ra
and we went into the YG building with Lee and Collins. We got to the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwIC654Sin
studio and I wasn't expecting the BigBang members to be there before us.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIc4n7PfSUh
Finding them here earlier than us was a bit of a surprise.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4j1QXjh57o
"Hey, guys!" Zoey greeted everyone.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeRbibjLqm4
"Hey, how are you," said G-Dragon as he came and gave her a hug. I bypassed them heading to the couch sitting next to Daesung.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEiF7F2PhcE
"Hey, are you alright?" Daesung asked.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQlVoaC9DP
"Oh, I'm fine," I answered. "I slept a little late last night since these guys came with so many gifts."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GdEOAY8dW
"I also feel like I 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08ZeKvTvvI
didn't get enough sleep," said Christine as she came to sit beside me. 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkub0QHziTX
She was obviously trying to avoid the two love birds in the room. The 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWYMQ6vt6Tq
two of them seem to be in a deep conversation at the moment.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbfmEAlDPec
"Do you think we should 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqjs2LiLpIj
start?" Seungri asked as he came to stand by the couch and also noticed 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFYg5173gs
how close Zoey and G-Dragon were.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiNClGzjedx
"What's up with them?" Mike asked as he stood in front of me with his arms folded.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6uaZtWt3vT
"Can't you see they are having a conversation?" Christine asked.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDI3VUILtj6
"Well, I think we should start working on the song," said TOP who sat next to Daesung.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBIdj31ihOP
"I think someone has to tell these guys," said Taeyang. "Sam? May you do the honours?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0A5kXAkUob
I looked over at Taeyang who sat at the far end of the couch with my eyebrow raised.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslLYImm1eN
"You do it," I said. "Why should I?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDUR4z1cuwV
"Because everyone listens to you," said Daniel.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhDNfO5yJP
Everyone around me shook their heads. I sighed.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbzAOSbs1A4
I stood up from the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZB6EsfzBc
couch and I went over to the multi track console where I had left my 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJn6p0ROpo4
notebook yesterday. Zoey and G-Dragon were still indulged in their 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwKloJIpzqY
conversation.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3AJn0pY68Q
When I went back, I 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOaGzSOLfw
signalled to the others who were standing to sit down. When everyone on 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnTJIMFZK5M
the couch was settled, I cleared my throat so loud, hopeful that I 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdGlR4Hltbm
caught Zoey and G-Dragon's attention.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnw6JA87n0h
"Ahem! So, we have to agree on who will sing the first verse," I said as I looked at the notebook.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnaTwaBRzu
"I was thinking, G-Dragon and Zoey could start," said Daniel, as loud as he could.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOfev01lqx
"That's not really a bad idea." I nodded my head.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHK83hgsmSh
"Hey, what's going on?" Zoey asked as she and G-Dragon turned to look at us.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBHPS8ntOPb
"Oh, you guys better come here because we're dividing the lyrics amongst ourselves," I said as I turned to look at the two.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiebSFIwN2g
"You should have told us," said G-Dragon.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡus5KLyeU8J
"Well, I didn't want to disturb you two. You looked really busy. And the two of you will be doing the first verse."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTudN8ieEf
G-Dragon gave me a weird1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6EyptqzUvM
look and all I could do was smirk at him. My plan had worked to get 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGSZLhLP8se
their attention. I went back to looking at the lyrics while he and Zoey 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhKgxY3uKe1
took their place on the couch.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCI9qzulVJg
"Christine and Daesung, I1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ncT7sIhiK
think one of you could sing the bridge after the first verse and then 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ywU5v59pF
the other on the second bridge after the second verse," I suggested.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBGALlzsPp
"Then you and I will sing the chorus," said Taeyang.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYvGEoDrvR6
"Ya, we will sing the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSUdSkXVIm
chorus," I said. "And Seungri and Daniel will sing the last verse. So, 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9FnEVBNgPl
now that we are done with all this, let me just give you guys a preview 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiD9fUA13jT
of the song and how its supposed to be laid out. I hope the music 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk3U7ptk9JP
producer has the lyrics printed out."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8bNfzChg4
"He brought in the printed lyrics for each of us this morning," said TOP, his eyes on the table behind me.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhsZxrTE6dp
I looked behind me on the small table. I hadn't noticed the papers. I took them and gave each member a sheet.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnoAiuhOPXr
Afterwards, I sang out the song so that everyone can have a layout on how it should be sung.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV55Bv3YQPu
Then we all went over 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1n68VFWvyY
the console so that everyone could listen to the instrumental the music 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6guu2wvxP
producer had made with me and the others yesterday.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZOWAxOAc2
"So, what do you think of the instrumental?" I asked after making them listen.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Gk9N3ohl5
"So catchy," said Daniel. "I like it."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaIdzozLfHE
"Me too," said TOP.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNUmKnXCP9N
"Then, let's get started," said Daesung.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡykvgt9WhRq
"Wait, a minute," said G-Dragon and everyone turned to look at him.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGtYJ8pT2O
I didn't look up at him 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX2N9C7gDIw
though since I was the one seated at the console and everyone else stood1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF3TyPxccbM
behind and beside me. All I did was just sit there and rub my forehead.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQbyvwYOln
Something told me he was going to say something I wasn't ready to hear.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSnagx6Tj11
"What's wrong, GD?" Christine asked. "Is there something wrong?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ75UwTiNEqJ
I started to relax my 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1Y8hQsrUB
temples with my fingers and my elbows leaning on the console. G-Dragon 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvLjQODytdt
had paused for a while and I felt impatient.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSVTBkxi1Gt
"The instrumental is okay and all, but I feel there is something missing."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7MdgjtOjaC
"What's missing?" I asked as I turned around on the chair to look at G-Dragon.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlP0yVrzdIc
G-Dragon came to sit 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwavch37O4l
next to the chair beside me and I wondered what was running in his mind.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvOUK2VZ0w
The instrumental was just fine and it's not like we hadn't gone through1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjHbTHHlYY
it with the music producer yesterday. I wondered what had gotten into 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUxBMDhcmtE
him now. Everyone liked it. But what was wrong with it for him?1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkrl9NhxrdF
"I'll have to listen to this for a while and I'll tell what I think," said G-Dragon.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVgV27k7A5
"Okay, suit yourself," I said as I backed away from the console dragging the chair behind me. I stood up.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxoA8h2Erz
G-Dragon got the headphones and at the same time, the music producer came in the room.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLZsv98hpq
"So, should we start putting in the lyrics into the song?" the music producer asked.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxB8QzuFi5A
"We can't because G-Dragon here thinks the tune and melodies need a little changing," I said.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJcInANZnI
"Really?" the music producer asked.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUta3myrl69
"Well, that's what he said," said Taeyang. "It all seems fine to me. I also don't see why it needs changing."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmZQXSyQa7
"Let's just see what he is going to come up with," I said as I folded my arms.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1oshwdxyg
"Give him a chance, 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrdV43NQg0r
Sam," said Zoey as she sat next to G-Dragon who kept on listening to the1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpAT9ay9aI1
instrumental through the headphones. She also got another pair of 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8kI2fA8XQ
headphones and put them on.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ38yPXWiTiV
"Okay, this is 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFt5Uj5lHOQ
confusing," said the music producer looking at all of us. "Let me also 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNrm5eU3t7
join them and see what needs some changing."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkyq1jYnnUV
I nodded and the music producer went over to join G-Dragon and Zoey.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4W2pHpqnQ
"So what should we do now?" Seungri asked.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQDrYwt9VC
"Chill, I guess," said Mike.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxHPXnyUDs
The others looked at me 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9hjHdQwKJv
when I didn't say a word. They were all looking at me obviously thinking1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUNe5owjkxg
I would come up with a better solution to all this just to pass time.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLACmabNSB
"To be honest, I don't know what we should do," I replied, shrugging my shoulders.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5BKS8fxB4U
"Why can't we just go through the song?" TOP asked.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGmJI0vgojz
"That's going to be a 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTavfjaIzy
problem." I rubbed the back of my neck. "The tune might change a little 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPNGXc9QD4
now that GD thinks it needs a little changing."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5RTvmoPoJy
"I doubt it," said Taeyang shaking his head. "We can still go through it. I don't think he can change the entire tune."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5n4mqIhgGy
Something told me he might but I didn't want to scare anyone so I kept that thought to myself.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbWjfotYfy
"Okay let's go through the song," I said as everyone nodded their heads and sat on the couch and I went over to get the guitar.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn75VH0lGuX
I looked over at Zoey 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0PXp99nMj
and G-Dragon. I wondered if they would really change everything. I tried1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqd1csYJHSb
to ignore the thought, and focused on the song.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVed6FXd1u
I put a stool in front 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1PLeMSdAW
of the others and I sat on it like I had yesterday. With the guitar in 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1runU9pwt
my hands, I started to play and I sang the song. After I sang it, 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5xHMa951t
everyone admitted that the song was good and that made me realise about 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn2VmIm0RS3
what G-Dragon was up to. I tried not to look worried in front of the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡACth6pZFfS
others.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3i8KYYDfe
"Now, that we know how the song is supposed to flow, let's all sing out our parts," I said. Everyone agreed.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJufoYLAeCZ
Taeyang and I sung the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdGRKGYgXOw
first verse since G-Dragon and Zoey were busy. Then Christine sung the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzpSpwZ1p4R
bridge, Taeyang and I sung the chorus. From that point, the song sounded1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5mWnxzmw4
great and everyone cheered.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7NHjJi3urW
"Wow, guys, this sounds awesome," said TOP.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHpD5kkEINM
"Mind blowing if you ask me," said Mike. "I can't wait for the second verse."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8uAogTxXi8
"Let's give it a go then," I said and I started to play the guitar.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyrSNCdAZTM
TOP started to rap the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT8ndReCMMK
second verse and then Mike followed suit. It was going on great. And 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslTTlE8zbv
while I played and the guys rapped everyone else on the couch was moving1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Cc9TBrB8P
to the flow of the tune. I smiled. Everyone was having a good time.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLg72U5JDzU
Daesung sung the bridge and then Taeyang and I sung the chorus again. This time even Christine joined in.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2S096f9ph
"I'm impressed," I said. "You guys really did well on the second verse."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYRbyDG4Ik
"Come on, now," said Seungri. "Daniel and I want to sing our part."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQweoB1d1Z
"Okay, okay." I looked at Seungri with my hand raised to calm him down. "Before you eat me alive."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV06Qemb8oM
Daniel and Seungri sung 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8AB4HvRLXw
the third verse beautifully, and coming to the bridge, Daesung and 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFl0dWA7XtE
Christine sung the bridge together. Taeyang and I sung the chorus. In 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEH6mpmrx8U
the end we all sang the chorus together. When we were done, everyone 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrI283kTgMu
clapped for themselves and cheered.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡULF4WoJlvH
"That was lovely guys," I said as I smiled at the others.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOlt8S4MHUF
"That sounds really good," came Yang Hyun-suk's voice behind me.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNT3qov7qJ
I almost fell off the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGR2jGgmct
stool when I heard his voice. I was so caught up with the song that I 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBnmh0xcj3p
hadn't noticed Yang Hyun-suk come in the room. By the look on the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7OZzDiUZB
other's faces, they hadn't noticed him either.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3UmRare1A
We all stood and bowed our heads as Yang Hyun-suk came closer to us.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWyUAaJeJjZ
"I have to say, you all 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg41Mu6wjb3
sounded really good. The song is just perfect," said Yang Hyun-suk with a1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXzQxNqujKg
smile. "Keep up the good work."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPItfQDqQBn
"Thank you," we all replied at the same time.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7ryN0xNfe
"You're supposed to be in the live room recording the song," said Yang Hyun-suk. "Why aren't you doing so?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnJM813gOB
No one said anything. We1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc2VsdoUYVF
all looked at each other expecting the other to say something. Most 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4mrgqcSux0
eyes were on me though. I always hated it when I had to do all the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSXrBqf0gIa
talking.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGThzDZOEVK
"Umm, G-Dragon wanted to add a few things to the instrumental," I said, not looking at the manager in the eye.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZgf4QLKrL
"Add a few things or change things?" Yang Hyun-suk asked, sternly.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7jyJq1zoX
That, I couldn't answer.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS0oieRu3Kt
Looked like he also thought like I did. The only way to find out was to1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡugPM4GVafA
listen to the instrumental ourselves.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjE6C7aR0f
"He just said something was missing," said Taeyang.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51PxavTH0c
"Then where is he then? Why isn't he here?" Yang Hyun-suk asked.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1chqMgC4D
"He's right-" I turned around to the console. He and Zoey weren't there.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLsXJNAhDox
"They were here a while ago," I said as I pointed at the audio machines and the multi track console.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3vwy5sATSb
"They?" Yang Hyun-suk asked.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKN0YAo8FwW
"G-Dragon, Zoey and the music producer."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHg4KuzArc
The manager shook his head. He was obviously annoyed with all this.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrP6NrMQZQ
"I want them back here 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ00V8hS7CZJ
right now," said Yang Hyun-suk. "I'll back in thirty minutes and if I 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSwfr62Qhgi
don't find them here, you better have a good answer for all of this."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn3yfN4eH9d
I gulped as I felt the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5jsKoT3Fv
air in the room change. He was furious all right. He was more furious 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjDwU7CNr5
because he feared that G-Dragon might change everything with the song. 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWp6VCm8dm4
And we only had thirty minutes to find them or else we were toast.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbDlUgP2oxV
No one said anything 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGOb68WyMLm
when Yang Hyun-suk left the studio. And this time, I was furious. I 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqNANzckyu
looked at the others and it looked like I wasn't the only one.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlg9kiBFEfN
"Where could they have 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdjJJrhoilj
gone all of the sudden?" Christine asked, her voice sounded like it was 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDxBcPkitF
full of rage. "They were there the last time I checked."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy4dJrbRI9B
"They couldn't have gone far," said Daesung. "They must have been gone a few minutes."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡselCjbqfuK
"Maybe they went out for lunch," said Mike as he looked at his wrist watch. "It's almost close to lunch time."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ70I55XOoBz
"They should have told us though," said Taeyang.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGMR9hlEhgY
"Then we better start 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfOpDJq4Uo
looking," I said. "I just hope they aren't out of the building or else 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2CSr56k9D
looking for them will be difficult."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4liX7lrNgD
We all agreed to split 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlCmLUy5VBM
up and look for them given the little time we had. I went with Christine1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7x1ysKa7bg
and TOP looking around the other studio rooms, Mike and Daniel went 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFrjNb7YtSx
over to the dance studios. Taeyang, Seungri and Daesung went upstairs.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqXjMRhkRt
All the studio rooms 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQmCVHNPEK
were empty, so I went with Christine and TOP downstairs and asked the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPbEALXKxzR
receptionist if she saw Zoey and G-Dragon go out.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2bNPDRwduE
"The two of them walked out just a while ago," the receptionist answered.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLos1VtcgEv
I frowned and turned away from the receptionist while Christine asked, "how long ago was it?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvvhKnvfCD
"Almost fifteen minutes."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVrNG2seJC
"Try and call them, will you?" I asked TOP.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwxkNOIxKU
He nodded and pulled out1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ86rDWc9Adm
his phone. At the same time, the elevator doors opened and my brothers 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLmDO7bKnV6
walked out of it and came towards us.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtIoxOFRXUp
"Anything?" Daniel asked.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡztEzD4pnYx
"They left the building," I answered with my hands on my hips. I looked over at TOP. "Have they picked up?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfmFq5eWnf
"GD's phone keeps ringing and he isn't picking up," said TOP, with his phone on his ear.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMUArL8gDIB
"Let me try to call, Zoey," said Christine pulling out her phone.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRS6CzkqmVb
I looked at the time on my watch. We only had fifteen minutes and Yang Hyun-suk was going to kill us all if we didn't find them.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡauScdffL7l
"She isn't picking up either," said Christine.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8QH56Mc6AP
"Great, these guys are going to get us into trouble," said Mike as he scratched his head.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp0Gd4h7hLp
"If they just went for lunch they are bound to show up," said TOP.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQrkANgdmm
"Should we split up and look for them around town?" Daniel asked.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXRP592fHq
"Splitting up will be risky now that Yang Hyun-suk is on our necks," said Christine.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrMAqBZhvp
I hadn't said a word 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBrs4oolaVE
when the elevator doors opened and Daesung came out. He had a really 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYISJxOhkCP
worried look on his face. He rushed up to us and I also couldn't help 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZHM3HFKamp
but worry.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6IVFxKJTU
"What is it, Daesung?" I asked. "Is there something wrong?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYNR9Ib4jz
"We just met with the music producer upstairs," said Daesung. He shook his head. "You're not going to like this."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXHKxpOIwg2
Daesung motioned his 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3PWkaCLqyk
head towards the elevator. We followed him and we found ourselves back 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0elmeekAZI
at the studio. Taeyang and Seungri were with the music producer.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8y25C0mOdb
"Please tell me G-Dragon didn't just change the entire tune for the song?" I asked when we got in the studio.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ92KkcpLIl
Taeyang and the music 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKwKSCIM9q
producer looked at each other with blank looks on their faces then 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrCOE1UchZ
looked back at me. Seungri was looking at me the whole time. I was so 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxvhWshfWP
preoccupied in my mind, thinking of the worst, that I felt so confused 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbtKnPjpIVS
and angry at the same time.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLx3WZ1tSoA
"It's best if you hear it for yourself," said Daesung.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7PSGgZOgO
I looked over at Daesung1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqiOsQtNOdD
and made my way to the console where the music producer had his laptop 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQLK6M7af3
open for me. I sat down and preparing myself for the worst, I pressed 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMb3qMRAStV
the play button.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLHaoO1Cfd
***1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkY8iwwuQkx
"Where are they?" came Yang Hyun-suk's voice from the door.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlyYoTv3mGe
I came crushing back 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMNQAsw9516
down to reality by the harsh sound of the manager's voice. I was on the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJwDEdhZ34B
couch with the rest of the others and I had been brooding for a while.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQX4QbfsbjU
I had so many mixed 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnACQHJqCbQ
feelings inside after listening to the instrumental G-Dragon had made. 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl7CdMyabM1
He had completely changed everything and that made me so upset. After 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs2Mxfj7D7b
all the work I had put in with the others yesterday and this is what I 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡraHN8X8oF0
get in return? I was speechless. So were the others.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJGHRssNNT
I could tell that the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzOfg4NtbvA
others were as confused and wondering why G-Dragon had done all this. 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0bZfx9q3Vd
But I was confused with a mixture of rage. I worked so hard on that 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLdPh86J2fI
track and I felt everything just went down the drain.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVRCI3RsXzL
"Isn't anyone going to answer me?" Yang Hyun-suk asked.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11svrfdXZx
"They aren't here," Daniel answered.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3TgmjWrqp
"It looks like they had gone out for lunch," said Taeyang.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5AxHPann1n
"They went out without taking you guys along?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ24R5FL8Bck
I folded my arms and 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBnEQh0EKPR
huffed. It looked like they did, alright. And if they made sure as to 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrhAkmq1Z7i
come back here, I was going to skin them alive.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhl9AnK3JVU
"Maybe they must have gone to order us some lunch as well," said Christine.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP16dXkmx9s
"Well, they are taking a lot of time to get here," said Yang Hyun-suk. "What about the instrumental? Did they change anything?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡONmn7QeYoM
I could feel Christine who sat next to me stiffen by the question and I could imagine the others stiffen too.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡguVMnosmgJ
"Well...eh," Mike started to talk but I intervened.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzK5FnNtFuZ
"No, we haven't heard it yet."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqUtSR2937L
I could feel the others 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7N6gMRz35
turn to me with weird looks on their faces. I knew lying wasn't the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4TSruPz0V7
right thing to do at this moment, but the music producer's laptop wasn't1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQZ7X6nuIJ
here and I had the USB drive where the instrumental was. And besides, 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaestPp2mQh
Yang Hyun-suk was going to be furious. I had to know what the heck was 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ11KrjGEci
going on in G-Dragon's mind before telling our managers anything.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1kXa8WqAJ
"Oh, hopefully they haven't changed anything," said Yang Hyun-suk. "Call me when they get here."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJgJz5iSdM
"Okay." I nodded my head.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡApeVlJ0fxN
When Yang Hyun-suk left,1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtLmKBbe2Cv
Seungri came over to me in a quick flash. He scared me by his sudden 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQehAxix64
approach. He looked down on me with a look on his face.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5bBhzazyaz
"What did you just do?" Seungri asked. His voice almost turned into a shriek.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnieTmRLSDg
"You know what I did," I answered, my arms still remained folded as I looked up at him. "I lied."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfbF35tpJJv
"But why?" Christine turned to look at me fully in the face. "We're going to get into serious trouble."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJUx0ARGfW
"Not until I hear what 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLB0ZntXyh
GD has to say." I looked at Christine and I could tell on her face that I1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2kPGBe86N
sounded a bit harsh towards her. I closed my eyes and took a breath, 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAeoC64QW0
trying to calm down.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoa3dlIhrfc
"Sorry, I didn't mean to sound harsh," I said as I looked at her.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJFf8QIrdU
"I know. But you shouldn't have lied, Sam."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHJWsFAqKK
"So that we could get 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡurWskbQVXC
Zoey and G-Dragon into trouble? The reason why I did this is because I 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuYAz10JgMh
want to know for myself why GD changed everything. If we told Yang 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5qJIKbdaP0
Hyun-suk, I wouldn't have known for myself."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyoyl2spuA9
"I agree with Sam," said1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHqvKUKX9UF
TOP. "We the group members have to know what's going on first. Getting 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrIcVPTWkb
Yang Hyun-suk angry won't be good for all of us and you know it."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPEkRUTE6aK
"So we just sit here and wait for them?" Mike asked.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA88pdX4ToL
"Do we have a choice?" I asked as I looked out the window.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpilLYPbPEu
The rest of the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUm4aq9yXbc
afternoon was quiet and boring. I was just on the couch looking out the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2DE1kYDMFT
window, while the others were now on the floor sitting in a circle 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfWbdUZBWEf
playing cards.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjfZTdDVyD1
I was leaning my chin on1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXndakMXxNw
the armchair and my legs were up on the couch. I sighed sadly. I still 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDr1xJK2aY
felt so bad about the song and I wondered why all this was happening, 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV1GsHqdG04
especially to me.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHaqWSGyKi
Did he do all this because of what happened with TOP the other day?1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalBptrsDpX
I suddenly sat upright 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHvtLi78L4Q
when I realised something. Hadn't he told Zoey that he liked her? If he 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDuzAgqC3n
really did like Zoey from the beginning, then why was he acting like a 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhAoJxyyQiV
jealous prick the other day? Was he trying to get back at me not just by1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbBpOQs5Nnz
ruining the track but also by hanging out with Zoey?1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFoSJ2fjF4T
"Hey, Sam, are you okay?" Daesung asked as he looked at me. "You look like you have seen a ghost."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUu1jWrlCH1
"I...eh.." I tucked a strand of hair behind my ear. "Nothing. Just realised something."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcj59OuNfxY
"That you're hungry," said Seungri, looking at his cards in his hands. "I'm also hungry."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6cOCH2Plr
"But we can't go out and order lunch," said Mike. "I feel Yang Hyun-suk's eyes are everywhere now apart from here."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJdrewBSmq5
"Maybe we can just order1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsDxC0AZpuL
a pizza and tell the receptionist to come here without raising any 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYLlwvifhQ2
suspicion to Yang Hyun-suk," said Daniel.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVJX8NqPjF
"Good idea," said TOP. "Let me tell her right now." He pulled out his phone and just when he was about to call, Lee came in.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBxN7Ty0myH
"Hey, guys," said Lee carrying three boxes of pizza in her hands.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxbtM2vdM5
"Finally, food!" Christine exclaimed as she got up from the floor and ran over to Lee to help with the boxes.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJOeGS1c7pI
"I heard that Zoey and 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgO9Lgboep
G-Dragon had left," said Lee. "Yang Hyun-suk told me and he is watching 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSLDZzoffgn
out of his office window for them like a hawk."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhRWjSpTaQ1
"I knew it," said Mike. "I knew he was watching."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTntDy5zq65
"Then it's a good thing 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZwIycUjdhj
Sam texted me a while ago," said Lee. "I had to find a way to sneak in 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9JFQNaelDb
the pizza. That's why I took forever to get here."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡifK6DyXSMX
Daniel came over to hug me. "Thanks, sis. I don't know what we would have done without you. I was starving."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ33CzHlkdf
"Ya, I know," I said. "We better eat quickly before the managers get here."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17pAOMiWo0
Everyone soon dropped 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6JXRn2Xpv
their cards and went over to the table started to dig in as soon as one 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHF1ovIQqn
of the pizza boxes was laid on the table and Lee opened it.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlrQyGa7z9t
I had never eaten pizza 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnj9PqMioSj
so fast and it had never tasted so good in my mouth. Maybe it's because 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡitN2g4y1Zp
despite all the anger bottled up inside me, I was as hungry as hell.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8N5LTFxnBk
We were done finishing 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7CEYtLaH5n
the second box of pizza when Lee asked, "I heard G-Dragon changed the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsNaytyEkV7
instrumental for the song, is that true?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9gjxEuMGP3
"Well, ya," I said with my mouth full of pizza. The pizza was so good.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqiHbGdvRj
"He changed it for real?" Lee sounded surprised. "But Yang Hyun-suk said you haven't heard it yet."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMMxeSP0MhG
We were huddled up on 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIFHgTgLZo
the floor around the table eating our pizza and we had soon stopped 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkmzM8rHQmo
eating and looked at Lee who was seated on the couch.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKNR0K9rhg
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Lee asked.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9uz5YFu39V
"We actually lied," said Taeyang.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujqnvUipOP
"You lied? About what?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5U8tVIcFcO
"I told the manager that we hadn't heard the instrumental," I said.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC2YEN5k1f9
"But why?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFdzTk7QLc
"Because, I had no choice. I want to know why GD did this. It's best we know and see how we can move forward."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8KRMDpAu8c
I finished my slice of pizza and licked my fingers when Lee asked, "don't you think he just did that to get back at you, Sam?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz0P2jp5T61
I didn't expect Lee to 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZnmemjSvny
say that in front of everyone. I felt time I had stood still and all 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLYo27le5VK
eyes were on me now. I looked away without saying a word.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr8fiUZk5WK
"What does she mean by that, Sam?" Daesung asked.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPYUJSG0Uw
"Please, tell us," said Christine. "What is it with you and GD? Are you two still fighting?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAcm6SfNn2S
I sighed as looked up at the ceiling still without saying a word. I didn't know how I was going to tell them.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8CakrLkWIp
"I thought that argument ended a long time ago," said Daniel. "Or did something else happen?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡewknFU0dqd
I stood up from the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOza9yjG69N
floor and walked over to the window. The day was so bright and warm but 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtYho8OaaNg
yet I felt so cold and gloomy. I knew this day would come sooner or 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJijg7pJzcy
later.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQPxMtZijm
Trying to find the right1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpyMqBYUWEM
words to say was a lot harder than I thought. What was I going to say? 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWspGMHPXpT
To me, all this was confusing. I knew GD was still mad at me, but for 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCHle50xw0
what for, was the question in mind.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡReV7K9aY2K
"Aren't you going to 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgjotfMjqo
tell us?" Mike asked as I realised that he was standing next to me. "Is 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjpYIJ7fnM
he still mad about who had to write the lyrics for the song?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLaTvd4bSJC
"I doubt it," said TOP. "I was here with them when they were writing the lyrics and the two of them looked fine to me."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGbbe857lB1
"Please, tell us what's going on?" Taeyang asked. "Lee, do you know something?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9MYXSvx0Xr
I looked at Lee and she was looking back at me with a scared look on her face. Using my eyes, I told her not to say a word.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNwAmiAA3mT
Lee went on to look at 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TW2vbtzMW
Taeyang and shook her head. "I've no clue. I didn't mean to say that. I 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjsCnmAvbjT
just thought they might be arguing again."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlnDUuTtJf
"And it looks like it too," said Daniel, giving me an eye.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM33qgptOTI
"Aren't you going to say anything, Sam?" Seungri asked.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdnaiHSPSZ3
"I don't even know what 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxct6tKXu4
to say to you at this point," I said, turning back to face the window 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVT0y1Z6WN
and I saw G-Dragon's car pull into the premises. Mike also saw it too.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFkvyuVbk8u
"They are here," Mike announced to the others.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZ9EMcqB0D
No one said a word. The room had too much tension already, it was best not to say a word.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSVxXuq2OpC
"I better call Yang Hyun-suk," said Lee.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUoeNwEiWoe
"No, not yet," I said, before Lee could stand up from the couch. "Wait until Zoey and G-Dragon get in here."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbDkQUA5Alz
Lee just nodded her head and I went back to looking through the window down at the car park.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQGS7hgg9h
It only took five 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCx6YOLgU6
minutes for Zoey and G-Dragon to get to the studio. They came in talking1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYtlsGSYmc
and laughing. Well, that happiness was going to end soon. Not when you 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsdP94QeX3F
see your group members are all upset and gloomy.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7QYGRQb3pE
"Hey, guys!" Zoey said cheerfully as she came in with G-Dragon behind her.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ413Ei1KPeq
When no one said anything back, Zoey's mood also changed. "What's with the long faces?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnRTx2zc9N
Still, no one said anything. It looked like no one was ready to throw the dice first. I cleared my throat and looked at Lee.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygUjsUXNhD
"You can call Yang Hyun-suk for us," I said.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJf9dGdyzz
"Okay." Lee got up from the couch and bypassed Zoey and G-Dragon going through the door.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqu7zpMioZ
"Aren't you going to say what's wrong with you guys?" G-Dragon asked.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡceySYQfkwP
"Where were you?" I asked as I slowly started to approach them.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbYAnCbykYk
"We went out," Zoey answered. "Are we in trouble with Yang Hyun-suk?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6yfRiNGHk
"Not just with him but also with me, a lot of us too," I said motioning to the other group members in the room.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8vk8zKpRP
"What? Are you mad we left without telling you?" G-Dragon asked.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCDCkcD0gti
"No." I now turned to look at G-Dragon. "It's about the instrumental. You changed absolutely everything."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhIEPNoiPH
I tried to keep my tone down and my anger in check but I was boiling inside. Any minute now, I might just blow my head off.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfFxUWYxlE
I was expecting an answer from G-Dragon but all he did was look at me. I kept on coming closer, my eyes not leaving his.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7T5ArHVIZ
"Why did you this?" I asked.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsYL3OOw8Gm
"I didn't like the first one you made," he said, clearly with no emotion in his voice.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQrDExgZx2q
"If you didn't like it, you should have just said so and all of us together would have figured something out. Not what you did."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4UrDwwWg0
When I got closer to them, I took out the USB drive from my pocket. I took G-Dragon's right hand and placed it in his open palm.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xat7ExkDN
"The instrumental is in 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGkOtQdks4x
there," I said as I slowly looked up at G-Dragon. "When Yang Hyun-suk 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡos2hLObrmI
came to hear it, I told him that we ourselves haven't heard it. I did 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDWZjzkPSNU
this so I can get the explanation out of you. But we're running out of 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5dRjlaDPj
time and he will be here any moment. It's up to you to give it to him 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdT0Gh9GOI
and let him hear it for himself. But let me remind you, he is already 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqKvb1Pdmv
pissed."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDm5DYOEZTU
"Wait, a minute," said Taeyang as he came up right behind me. "He first has to tell us what's happening between the two of you."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ofKIsa7xO
"We don't have time, Tae," I turned to look at him.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwexUA639v
"What is going on?" Zoey asked. "Are you and GD still not on good terms?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7YPgvXdAqx
I looked at Zoey and she1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJO2GLhf7R
was as confused as ever. How I wish I could tell everyone but I didn't 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEW2fyd3coO
know where I stand with G-Dragon. I still couldn't tell why and what he 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7aXhZcuFOM
was mad at me for.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHpD7v2yDm
"Now is not the right 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7WF6HnkSC
time," I said as I went over to the couch and sat down. All eyes were on1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3LkDAd2sI
me now and I knew everyone was confused, but later on, they would 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiiXhcIi6mu
understand.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFI1aO9ivqG
Yang Hyun-suk, Collins 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5u8wyF17CC
and Lee came in seconds later. I could tell a lot of people felt 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡieHIg73avD
uncomfortable when they came in. I didn't. I just wanted to see whether 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnh7C9DKTsE
G-Dragon would give away the USB drive or not.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ39PuFvcHOk
"It's about time you guys got here," said Yang Hyun-suk as he turned towards Zoey and G-Dragon. "Hope you had a perfect lunch."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRpevKCKTc
I almost smirked but kept my cool when Zoey said, "yes, we did."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4NGVhQFyhk
"But did you manage to order lunch for your friends too?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjv4updZTC
Zoey and G-Dragon paused. They obviously weren't expecting that. I had to step in and say something.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDU1ClxsOCA
"They did. They brought us pizza," I pointed at the three boxes of pizza on the table. We had only finished two boxes.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ315tiHJOjS
"You guys were pretty hungry, weren't you?" Collins asked, looking surprised that two boxes were already empty.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTgbcTEEuT2
"Ya, we were," said Mike as he opened the other box of pizza and the rest of us still eating dug in.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqOC8YFoIl
"So," Yang Hyun-suk looked away from us facing Zoey and G-Dragon. "Did you change anything with the instrumental or what?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4DqMjZlurJ
I paused with my mouth 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKPAGykrZ4
open ready to bite another piece out of my slice. I looked on at what 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsulIPFR6Fr
was happening in front of me. I just hoped G-Dragon wasn't going to give1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYAxqqhAiRE
Yang Hyun-suk the USB drive.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUkRLhAMdmG
I looked at G-Dragon and1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡECnUsXk2uD
noticed that he still had the USB enclosed in his hand. I looked at his1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6sc9kLhTQ
face wondering what he was thinking.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zaXJRhWah
"Do you think he will give away the USB?" Seungri asked as he whispered in my ear.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd3GTHvEzSM
"Hopefully not," I whispered back. I even had my fingers crossed.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOg5GVilHf
"No, we didn't change anything," said G-Dragon.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAsXx5I86YG
I smiled and Seungri 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7FSiGMPz4a
held his breath and let out a sigh of relief. The rest of us on the 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6p1g3hmG6
couch seemed to have relaxed. Luckily, the managers hadn't read our body1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLGl3Ivx2q
language. They didn't even look at us. But Lee did.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡePja87igc1
"Thank goodness," said Yang Hyun-suk. "I thought you did. I'm glad you didn't."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLuOhyXXU8i
I smiled a little more. 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwc9IxqY0iZ
G-Dragon did the right thing which I knew he would do. But the problem 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qDNIWyL06
was far from over though. Now that our group members knew that he and I 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDTVR99Bo2
were at war again.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAmGQfOZF0f
"But we can't start 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtYKLirPa2
recording the track now," said Collins. "It's a little late so they 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs8onMgDP5x
would have to do it the day after tomorrow."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHgO3tWdxZr
I sat upright and alert.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3508xOUJEk
"The day after tomorrow? What are we doing tomorrow that we possibly 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCMbwhflzAa
have to record the track the day after?"1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4QKn3lpE2L
"Well, Sam," said Yang Hyun-suk turned to look at me. "The Toxins are going to have a TV interview tomorrow."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdcXgTOU5o3
"An interview?" Christine was the one who looked more surprised.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGcU0FL4FW
"But why didn't you tell1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpAUnX4NCfp
us earlier?" I asked as I looked at Collins who smiled back at me. It 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuF7bL0FUEM
was then that it hit me and things became clear.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Tx1fZJWeC
"Is that the surprise you were talking about yesterday?" I asked.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKWplYs57Ue
"Yep," said Collins as he grinned.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvMP97mcJvR
"This is one heck of a surprise, alright," said Zoey folding her arms.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUaUhBShSAp
"Well, played," I muttered to myself as I looked away.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5x04zrqIh
"So, before the day ends, we better go get ready," said Collins. "You will also have to perform during the interview too."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJy61J6iGsS
"This just keeps on getting better," said Daniel, rolling his eyes.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnEUN0Jv7ro
"What are we waiting for? Let's go," said Collins. "We don't have enough time in our hands."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjv6Ex2api
"You should have told us earlier, you know?" Mike said, as we the Toxins stood up to leave.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvM2mgnHJdI
"Then you should have thought twice before you all decided to leave for Paris."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJnDZdRIUP
It was then that the other Toxins realised that all this was payback. I wasn't surprised. I already knew.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hP5FSE5OZ
The two managers and Lee went out of the room first. Just as we were about to walk out, TOP stopped me by holding my hand.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFnu2bVpJeo
I turned to look at him 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUfsJFt5Y7
and he had stood up from the couch, looking straight at me. I blushed 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKo7aZnBNav
and looked down at my feet. He always made me nervous when he looked at 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡodCsfHp9fm
me like that.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEbBhb9JmyS
"We might have gotten away from our managers' fury today," said TOP. "But you and GD have a lot of explaining to do."1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsG5CY89BIK
"I know," I said as I turned to look at G-Dragon, who quickly looked away.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3RVm4JWMg
"Ya, a lot," said Daesung as he nodded his head. I could see he was trying to ignore that TOP was holding my hand.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHQEyLf9lO
"And don't try to come up with any excuses," said Taeyang.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4yf0lto9c
"Don't worry, I won't," I promised. I just hoped G-Dragon wouldn't.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOSTfD3ZPVl
Zoey and the others left the room and I was the last to walk out. I didn't want to look at G-Dragon, but I did.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMVQPoMxflN
We looked at each other 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpOLRut7WAd
for a while and I didn't know what I felt for him anymore. Maybe I was a1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI42m4BO6yR
little hurt, but I was also so confused. I don't know. I couldn't tell.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEhWCd1ECkw
Maybe he also felt the same.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpgsKLQ2kBl
But I wouldn't know and I wouldn't like to know what he felt. I walked out of the studio, closing the door behind me.1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEAJ7JIG4FX
I then realised that I 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0J3tPMEOw
had completely forgot to ask G-Dragon and TOP about the necklace Zoey 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0NV1xXd892
bought for me from Paris. I guess that issue will have to come up 1075Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3bBkLP3BSR
another time.
