Mr Teddy in a suit was 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSLd4dniV8
treated like a celebrity and became a trending topic on social media. 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBuOQHBNRFk
Last night, we had posted pics of it and sent them on Instagram to our 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHOX1uKpEgp
darling fans who loved the stuffed bear instantly. I had to admit, it 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmTVuqiWOD
was so much fun taking cute selfies and videos with the little teddy. 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKxk8LOxJO
Even Lee joined in the fun after we told her the whole story. The only 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeRC6GstH6s
person who wasn't enjoying all this, was Zoey.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkqXDBINPgl
Back at the studio the 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9FgexqpBt7
next day, the BigBang members couldn't help but ask us what had gone on 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZx8yET8BxW
with the teddy bear. With the looks on their faces, it's like they 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHXPVeicRti
already knew who sent it.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0mwSmZ4UG
"Don't tell me the guy in the suit sent it?" Daesung asked.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXHvSAZkqwo
"Yep. He's the one," I replied, nodding my head.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0zK1TxIuoh
"I can't believe it," 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLuCIGICCj3
said Seungri. "When I saw that teddy bear in the suit, I knew it had to 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgm4swEltFG
do with that guy. I thought I was being paranoid."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZihLCR2ZnU
"Well, whoever it is, 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKiF6nb7kqL
really sent us laughing yesterday," said Christine, giggling a little. 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOHMKWlfXG
"We all thought he sent us a bomb or some threatening letter."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxRiJZB375
"Ya, we could see you guys were having fun on Instagram," said Taeyang.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIo456RnSfo
"And Zoey is still pissed," said Mike. "This is the longest I've ever seen her upset in my life."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbFDRH5t0R
"Until all of this cools down, we have to keep a cool head around her from now on and not say anything stupid," said G-Dragon.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzorb0WI6v
"Where is she anyway?" TOP asked.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDl4WbjqL5
"She went to use the ladies' room," said Christine. "Must be she doesn't want to hear us talking about the teddy bear."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9K80to2sdV
A moment later, Zoey 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4sIXMs0oi
came in the room and we all turned to look at her. She seemed a little 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9keZYBesN
absent minded and hadn't noticed the silence that fell amongst us as 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWC1NzlQ2W
soon as she walked in.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAYUdS43InM
As she came further into the room towards us on the couch, I got a little worried. Somebody had to snap her out of her mind.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxObrgwnr3A
"Zoey?" G-Dragon stood up and walked over to her. "Are you okay?"1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwRZWPSAXJM
"Huh?" Zoey blinked for a moment as though she had woken up from a dream. "What did you say?"1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3c3uGLeodg
"You seem so preoccupied."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAn5sQBk20
"I'm fine," said Zoey. "I just didn't sleep well last night."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenEwosHlxx
"Why? Did you dream 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZjYy0LBNh
about the teddy bear haunting you?" Mike asked with a grin. Taeyang and 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nNbuaBJgR
TOP who sat on either side of him hit him on the shoulders.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDWrKkM4T6P
"Very funny, Mike," said Zoey, giving him a frown. "I didn't have any nightmares."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1MHPe2tfHF
"Then why didn't you get enough sleep?" I asked. "Was it about the guy in the suit?"1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡejHZ8HeSsi
Zoey looked at me and 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAzdnTH937I
nodded. Looks like she wasn't the only one who was worried about him. 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsRSVP4dzm8
The others might think he was nothing but an ordinary fan who meant no 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ahg0SOM3G
harm. But to me, he was someone I had to look out for.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vl2PWRBcY
"Come on, Zoey," said Christine. "I doubt if he would show up again. I bet after sending us that teddy, he is pretty harmless."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeAB4rhIXMb
"Ya, you don't have to 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGTlHtcpsIA
worry about him anymore," I said as I played along to see Zoey's 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlyqsTMSBpP
reaction. "I mean, you did say he is a very nice guy. We just got 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCSNDjlEyfM
carried away yesterday thinking he was bad. But when he sent the teddy, 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0jIelawl3P
he doesn't seem that way anymore."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkVRMavnx7
"I don't trust him though," said Zoey.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpeQXih4qX
"Why?" G-Dragon asked.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaIWlCNGNch
"What if he shows up again?"1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGNxXfbaLZ
"Then we will take him out for lunch and get to know him, right?" Seungri suggested.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlKdriHuC1O
A lot of us nodded our 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7BEP10T4i9
heads in agreement saying it was a good idea. I took a glance at Zoey 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRL1TRE5J2n
and I saw her shaking her head a little. She looked even more nervous 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡixK69a2cJh
than before. Her reaction confirmed everything. Something did happen 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wrRgRwGxW
between Zoey and the stranger that she wasn't telling us about. And I 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhWhnIAWIfl
was determined to find out no matter what.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXRFJE8FRk5
"Anyway, enough of that," said TOP. "Aren't we supposed to finish up on the song?"1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ubM02RuER
"I wonder where the music producer is," said Daniel.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe6PEh131Gk
"He must be around," I said. "Someone should go and check on him."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtCjMgoYTpH
"I'll go," said G-Dragon.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVA7E8t5hoU
"Let me go with you," said Zoey.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgCFIWXHMnj
G-Dragon nodded and the 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQjDvKjBxem
two left the room. Looked like Zoey still didn't want to hang around us,1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8FVdG7AOW5
thinking we might go back to talking about the teddy bear and the 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qYPyIfvuU
mysterious stranger again.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6L1eo1l3b6
"I wonder what's up with Zoey," said Taeyang.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZccEPxiGk
"She's just being paranoid," said Mike. "She shouldn't worry too much."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDzoGfnvi4
"That's the thing, Mike," said Daniel. "Zoey never worries too much. She's one who doesn't stress herself out."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP7r5kHlN3p
"It will pass in no time," I said. "We ourselves shouldn't be too worried."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKGa7wgFbq
Lee soon came in the studio and surprisingly, she had Mr Teddy with her.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlG44B4AAN5
"Mr Teddy!" Christine and I exclaimed happily at the same time.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaA0zBIIZvR
"Hey, guys. Weren't you supposed to be finishing up with the song?" Lee asked.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryknsvPeNu
"We're waiting for the music producer to show up," said Daesung.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZXTyc2GN6
"And why did you bring 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2Rxb0aQuH
Mr Teddy along?" I asked as I went over to Lee and took the little 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgFqOzxIjQ
teddy. "You know Zoey doesn't even want to look at it. Like, never 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxMzQ93zwp
ever."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpkubrjS5aM
"Come on, it's harmless and I carried it around for personal reasons. By the way, where is Zoey?"1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡci2Qfby8Jt
"Went looking for the music producer with G-Dragon," said Mike.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkYRagoD6g
"Aren't you supposed to be with Collins and Yang Hyun-suk? You seemed very busy yesterday," I said.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgk1tjPLpmD
"Oh, no," said Lee, backing away and shaking her index finger at me. "I see what you're getting at."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalS3KAGaYD
"What?" I asked, shrugging.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMATjkm6HSu
"You want me to tell you what's going on, don't you?"1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsCn4ueN6B
I raised an eyebrow at Lee and the others also found all of this odd.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrg9QMCrDT8
"I wasn't going to ask," I said innocently. "Seriously."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQkzn6oXJK
"Is there something coming up we should know about?" Christine asked.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ndecbaFx6
"I'm not the one whose supposed to tell you. Your managers are," said Lee.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbLTltYdKWM
"It's fine by me," I said. "We will find out from them."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdSV0XN9B3a
"Good," said Lee, 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoDyA1l8agM
straightening herself and grabbing Mr Teddy from me. "I think I'll leave1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7FBgeRJIyk
now or else you, Sam, might make me tell you everything. Given that eye1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1eDPfzLxz4
of yours."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO46EztLu5h
The others snickered behind me and I sighed. Looks like the others weren't joking yesterday about the eye.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRv1vINfVx8
Just as Lee was about to leave the room, the door flew open and the music producer came in.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7YQIGA04N
"Sorry, I'm late," said the music producer. "Let's get started."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhigCvB3O2f
"Ummm, Zoey and G-Dragon just went out looking for you," said Taeyang.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPnQB3Pr1IW
"Well, call them," said the music producer.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxVqFtAlG1
"Looks like G-Dragon left his phone behind." Taeyang held up G-Dragon's phone.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkL7AA2DbNJ
"And Zoey gave me hers to hold on to for a while," said Christine.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEhOdMLeZIY
"Well, someone better go and look for them," said the music producer.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmU3zTCgARa
"I'll go," I volunteered.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP7rz1mqDLd
"I'll come with you," said Daesung.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKs6unJ7o9W
"Find them quick, will you?" Daniel asked.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkT784pd4Y7
"We'll try," said Daesung.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjPPx1ALI3
Daesung and I both left 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTVFFggJwJZ
the studio with Lee who went upstairs. Daesung and I first went around 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡekV6kxJQbu
the other studio rooms to check, but no luck. We decided to go and check1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp56Rzs3EOZ
the dance studios.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGFkz46rtbQ
"Do you think they might have gone out again?" Daesung asked.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQfXcK7FrI
"I doubt it," I said as I1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1bhkWmJRwr
opened the door to one of the studio rooms and found it completely 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXVrxNt6n1A
empty. "They know they can't leave until we are done with the song."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtTaTmMYFlY
"Ya," said Daesung as he also checked another empty studio room. "Those two really are something."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhriQJJFHe
"Tell me about it." I smiled as I rolled my eyes.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPcGQWU7bY
"Won't Collins freak out if he ever found out that they have a thing going on?"1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4XSczCaZvi
"You already know 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMn018jr7ON
Collins. He won't just freak out, he will be furious. I know we are just1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDrFXUDpKM
here to collaborate with you guys, but if those two like each other, I 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdnFJvMVHaM
would rather let them be."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8MgcvdGwvM
"Too bad," said Daesung behind me as I checked another studio room. "I wish it wasn't that way."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRvxcDuvBWl
As I backed away from 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzNyocPDDRo
the door, I bumped into Daesung who stood right behind me. I paused. I 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLLpczVOx0I
didn't want to turn around and look at him. I was leaning on his chest 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUJpRfmjz4Q
and immediately we had contact with each other, I felt a certain warmth 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dL2WbF7Nt
spread throughout my body.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs8cipPB0oS
"Huh," I stepped to the 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5IHTYxg6y
side feeling a little uncomfortable and I was blushing. I was staring at1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Z3O4XHDoh
the floor to avoid him noticing. I cleared my throat as I asked, "why 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8ptNisGKo
do you say that?"1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSFuyH2LuL
"Well, I..." I noticed Daesung scratch the back of his head as he hesitated.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡapKN9Vb8Up
Was he trying to bring 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIa1QCTBea5
out what happened between us at the park last week? It looked that way. I1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZvBTncHNe
myself wasn't ready to talk about it. To be honest, I was terrified.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxIr4dOt72X
I looked up at Daesung 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtYP4Ql6EH2
and he looked back at me. I couldn't stop blushing for some reason and I1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSwh4XdzEl
looked away again. I was afraid to look at him because if I did, I 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHfoGFYZqmh
might just bring my guard down and start talking about our little 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaEdswZ3Ps9
incident at the park.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcds8MSFaAa
"We better get going and find those two lovebirds," I said, still not looking at Daesung.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2p2gtgpii
Daesung said nothing and1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwhCNYpuWxN
just nodded. I smiled at him and soon turned away walking down the hall1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wIO1kb92W
and checking the other dance studios for any sign of Zoey and G-Dragon.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfInJgWujne
We were looking in one 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwNcORMHYuU
the last rooms down the hall when the door to the last studio room flew 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfI5OEh2mCQ
open and a group of trainees were coming out of the room.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBAKwjd0Tw
They were happily 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5nevBwoPye
chattering amongst themselves. They were seven of them and I 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2aWW01c7M
recognised.two of the trainees I had met earlier on when we first came 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMgWpVMnuD
here to YG, Soo Mi and Young Jin.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCtsa713DXP
The trainees soon 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPzY6iSviD
noticed Daesung and I in the hall and they stopped with each of their 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYk6SyIxFT
jaws dropping. Uh-oh. I knew that look. That was "oh my gosh my 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5jLN3z7Bcr
favourite idols is standing right in front of me" kind of look.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCDyFw8RmzB
I was ready for the 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv58jvwNdwn
screams and excitement coming my way. And when they did, I closed my 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIj1GcNMZ0d
eyes and I knew any second now, they would have Daesung and I 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwfKaCx5sSW
surrounded. Which they did.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlKFz9YuRNm
"BK, what are you doing here?" Soo Mi asked as she looked excitedly at me.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKizGktbFM
"Daesung and I came here looking for Zoey and G-Dragon," I said. "Have you seen them anywhere by any chance?"1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB0UB5KQt9K
"We saw them here a while ago," said Young Min. "They must have gone upstairs."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZI0eZVaIGK
"Oh, BK! Can we please 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡflav3naLC0
take a selfie with you and Daesung?" one of the trainees asked as he 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6SaJqriwzR
gave me a pleading look willing for me to give in. Which I always did.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWg8bkwvxK
"Ummm, okay, sure," I said with a smile. "We don't mind, do we?" I looked over at Daesung.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOL0OCFIHpd
He gave me the brightest smile and said, "no. With you, I don't mind anything."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP4Tvr1Kov3
The trainees around us 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0r9j8A20aq
started to snicker and if it came to the three girls, they giggled. They1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKu5OAHGRgB
obviously noticed how I blushed so quickly after what Daesung said. 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmWPfJq4I1
Sometimes I wished cute guys would stop making me blush like a fool.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3CI7FTd1G2
We all huddled up 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOVHYEDw9KI
together to take a selfie. One of the trainees held up her phone to take1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFaCFRjc35R
it and we smiled at the camera. I felt Daesung's hand on my back, down 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEl48ActqyV
to my waist. That sent shivers down my spine. As though making me blush 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOqWqgZiuPK
earlier wasn't enough. I tried to keep my smile intact as we took a few 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3E4vOwCgPv
pics with the trainees.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxrjHqolg7H
"Thank you so much," one of the male trainees said to me afterwards.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGhSGyVI1Y
"You're welcome," I said, returning the smile and feeling a little relieved after Daesung removed his hand around my waist.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfu7JygwpHY
"We better get going now," said Daesung.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCefC7CS8Ug
The trainees said their goodbyes and ran down the hall like excited little kids. I couldn't help but smile as I watched them go.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡldlm4FFE2S
"Awww! So cute," I said when they disappeared round a corner.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMGmlPs5Ow
"I know," said Daesung. "As though I was never like them once."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDZYnTaq7S
"I know that feeling. Reminds you of the old days, doesn't it?"1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeB4cj64PYb
"It does."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ929j0VVOKG
I looked at Daesung and I1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgGooV8Ip7h
could see in his eyes that he was lost in thought. He soon turned to 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9EFTogpH5Q
look at me and I quickly looked away.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0D8qGTj5qL
"Let's go upstairs, shall we?" I suggested.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFQQTorHXX
I turned and before I 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBUB36A1de
could take a step further, I felt a grip on my hand. I turned to look at1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5XSxglIYjT
Daesung and he stood so close to me.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgX4emYigiv
"Wait, Sam," said Daesung. "We need to talk."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9JOug1A8cv
This time he sounded 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGM7Qdvycd
serious and there was no way I was going to get away from him. Maybe it 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFGQ8QMoSs
was time to talk about things. Who knows? Maybe it would do me some good1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxBAEkZmQ66
and help clear things up.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdwGM5XqfuX
"What is it?" I asked.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0REplwUP4H
"It's about us, Sam."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1AfNS0GhI1
I knew it. This was bound to happen. I tried to keep myself calm and in control.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9dCAoSCCpI
"Are you trying to talk about what happened at the park last week?"1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡROQVCXeLdM
"Well, ya," Daesung nodded his head as he looked me in the eye.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtQiAJI0bc
"Okay." I looked down to1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQo7KGedHtv
avoid his gaze. Looking him in the eye made me uncomfortable. I didn't 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohhKI0QzDd
want to get lost in them. I leaned my back against the wall.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7em45TCUmF
"To be honest, I never stopped thinking about what happened to us that day."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVhDuKJrPc
"Or what almost happened." I corrected him. "I haven't been able to forget about it either."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhXqQoLXjf
We didn't say anything after that. The silence between us became so long and the empty hall added on to the effect dramatically.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRM4yR3g95H
A strand of my hair fell1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuXBNhAaDMj
on my face and just before I could tuck it behind my ear, Daesung's 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1oV6fjVLyb
hand reached out and put it behind my ear. His fingers brushed across my1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhR7nRGZbkf
skin as he did so.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXEHRsGR9MB
I gasped as I closed my 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡutebrCDJXp
eyes. His touch sent shock waves through my body and for a moment, I 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkGS3u4uZE2
felt a little light headed. His hand was warm against my skin and he 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTK1VS9Zqut
cupped my cheek with his hand.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxnsPdsZzdV
I felt him drawing 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIYTmWszyUz
closer to me. I wasn't ready to open my eyes yet. I felt him lean his 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMpznCoI23
forehead against mine and I slowly opened my eyes. I was looking 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbugASJDOXs
directly in his eyes and again, I was so drawn to him like I had before.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGQY5a0qrAA
I continued to look at 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKkDJKVQ1xg
him and I got lost. With him so close, I had never felt so alive and so 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgYKdevMLgA
safe. I had never felt like this before. With G-Dragon, I felt comfort, 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0WJweICBuh
with Daesung, it was something else all together.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPHviUjdMpo
But this had to stop. I 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKLVA164uSj
wasn't doing anyone any good. Not even for myself. As much as I wanted 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6iVVpCWa8K
Daesung, I had an ultimatum. Well, it felt more like it. We weren't 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ872d1FgeUE
meant to be together. And even though it felt right, I had to let it go.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZAHVIaczw8
I knew what I was about to do will make me regret later on. Call me bad, but I couldn't keep up with this charade any longer.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgj9DB0nckJ
I continued to look at 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡku05ehne7X
him and I held his hand that held my cheek. Daesung looked at me with a 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8hmbMIZqcV
questioning look in his eyes. It looked like he knew something was 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmkWIO9hlc
wrong.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKAZyft3RA
"Hey? What's wrong?" he asked, gently.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ScEP4BEoA
"I..." I paused before I could think of what to say next. "I can't do this, Daesung."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkRDalZlsuq
Daesung backed away a little but his hand never left my cheek.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUuEUborzzP
"What are you saying?"1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQBYh6V7Gq
"I don't want to keep hurting you anymore," I continued. "You know you and I can't be together."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCuzjewTnJ3
"But don't you like me?"1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO45CTdAvad
"I do." I really meant what I said and saying those words made my heart break. "I really like you, Daesung."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm5c6CkJDq7
"Then why are you saying all of this to me?"1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZf3BsVgzvM
"I don't want to raise 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfBryS035IU
your hopes in a relationship that isn't going to last. I'm not going to 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUsxWAzc9Fd
stay here for long and as much as this is going to sound silly, I don't 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9vciYz0LbW
think all of this is going to work out."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡykT02GFOx0
"I know all that. But if G-Dragon and Zoey could be in a relationship, then why not us?"1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJV0X68wCYI
I shook my head. "They 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCuG7XtCRDy
are different. Maybe it will work out for them. But you just agreed with1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtjMolCUI7y
me just now that this might not work out for you and I."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzGeL2SqGpd
Daesung sighed and with 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhpXWifvlWq
his hand still on my cheek, I couldn't help but regret all of this. Here1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCl13t7k49D
I was, with a chance of being happy with such a wonderful guy like him 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5yms1FiXho
but I couldn't due to so many things. Sometimes I wished I was never in 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ALPWCftP9
this awful situation.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPV6x8oBgzE
"I understand, Sam," said Daesung. "And if that's what you want, then I'll respect your wishes."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzB67lTcrKK
I smiled at Daesung and 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4GxYE30aCX
out of the blue, Daesung came so close and quickly planted his lips on 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWlAImE38p
mine. That was so unexpected and he quickly pulled away.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSaiEoxnLtC
I was shocked for a 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqtxaREDyN
moment and I couldn't think straight. Stars and sparks flew in front of 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEnf7rRMNQ
my eyes like I had just got knocked out. That kiss was a total knockout 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvuhbvBzjXb
all right. For a moment, I felt like I was dancing in the stars and I 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2hKRubwHW
didn't want to come crushing back down.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2G1xSzTEbd
I looked at Daesung 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHq47zsZx7K
again and I realised that he had been looking at me the whole time. My 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWAJ2LqdqO3
lips were still fuming hot and I wanted him to plant more kisses onto my1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsDzy2kKStT
lips.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEouIDET5jM
"Hey, guys," came Zoey's voice.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrPuqzCjDQ
Daesung stepped further 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSnRdMtMTa
away from me and I straightened myself from the wall. Down the hall 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpyopRMi3Sb
stood Zoey and G-Dragon looking at Daesung and I.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1epsVUoONl
"Were we interrupting something?" Zoey asked as she raised her eyebrow at me and smiled mischievously.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2LN947cSi
I blushed. This was so not happening. Had they seen us kiss? I hope not. I crossed my fingers hoping for the best.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFfdGQyCuhs
"We came here looking for you," I said.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5REFAhAng4
"Oh, really?" G-Dragon asked. He had a look on his face that I couldn't even describe.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHqrtWSGYaq
"The music producer showed up and is waiting for us in the studio," said Daesung.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGpGn4L0zd
"I figured he was back," said Zoey as she came over to us with G-Dragon.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxs5EgLHEz8
"We better get going then," I said as I looked down towards the floor.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7XJJHRj5yo
"Mmmm," said Zoey. "Are you sure we didn't interrupt you two? Something was going on here before we came, right?"1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhn4huXAnn6
"No," I said turning to Zoey with a frown. "We were just talking."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPeEtIKhRn
"Talking or looking for us?" G-Dragon asked.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJAf246uzm
"Does that even matter?" Daesung asked. "Can we please just go back and finish the song?"1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMNmavJmd2
I turned around and started to walk down the hall and the others followed. Zoey caught up with me and nudged me on the shoulder.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6l8WV8Gqeb
"You'll tell me later what happened, right?" Zoey whispered.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8Wv95TiFc
I hissed at her and 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNekTVHZm5I
rolled my eyes. She giggled and didn't say anything else. Looks like she1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5ZbFjK9WX
and G-Dragon hadn't seen Daesung and I kiss. But they had seen us close1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSPnnuvCmjE
together.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9P7PrsVeva
We found ourselves back 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSh14lyo8IJ
at the studio and soon, we got to work on the back up vocals. I did my 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnd32ACtyoH
best to avoid Zoey and G-Dragon's gaze towards me. And I also made sure 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ6oej6rTMm
not to stay so close to Daesung.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPsTsgDPlM
As soon as we were done with the song and added a few modifications, we listened to the track and it was so good.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCdllLTNmbA
"Wow, amazing!" I said, after the track was done.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6FjUjAFfO
Zoey was still humming to the tune, even after the track was done playing and she was snapping her fingers.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEyStZo522
"You're right, this tune is catchy," said Zoey.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBo5qFZDXJ9
"I can't wait for the managers to hear this," said Taeyang. "They would be mind blown."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPcMYa68SLx
"I'll take it up to them1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7vxA5SnPEn
in the office and make them listen to it," said the music producer as 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡavthPpx4Tm
he stood up with his laptop and USB in hand.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfl7V8ELLd5
"We will be right here then," said Mike. "Unless we have better things to do."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQIWjKoA4M8
I knew that was more of a1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3O590GrMHZ
suggestion and I couldn't blame him. We were done with the song and the1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLnveCISPVn
least we could do is have fun before we could make plans for a music 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0tKfdmeaJR
video. 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWCRS5exTE
"Like chilling and having fun?" Christine asked.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ90lqIMv9X
"Well, ya," said Mike giving Christine a wink.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovKAfHPs2d
"Not so fast, guys," said Taeyang. "We can't just leave before the managers get here."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡACzUZ9FxuF
"He's right," I said. "Remember what happened when we left without them knowing last time?"1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaZJDdPD1qa
"I'll talk to them," said the music producer. "Who knows? They might just make plans for a music video."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWj4ZYEU3DE
"Ahh. So soon?" Zoey whined.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3S4Ldwrkfj
"I think it will be great," said TOP. "Won't our fans be expecting a music video?"1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKv0inTUFro
"I also agree," said Daniel. "It's a single and the fans are expecting a lot coming out from this collaboration."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkDIeBLp9p
The music producer soon left as we continued discussing over the music video.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv54iG0mOov
"So, where do you think we should shoot it from?" Seungri asked.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOxZs5JzMS
"This is difficult," said Zoey as she scratched her head.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNXW3Mqpi46
"Why do you say that?" G-Dragon asked.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNByGyr2A4c
"Because it's a music video and it's always so hard to figure out what to portray for the viewers out there."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPLIM3v9eoV
"Ya, Zoey is right," I said. "I don't hate making music videos, but it's tougher than it looks."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6ut2kqva7
"And not only that, we have to work on the choreography too," said Mike.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNM53rSiYFY
"You and I were supposed to work on that, you know?" said Taeyang, addressing Mike.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnEpAnUOhnZ
"We can start working on it right now, if you so like. I already have some ideas running in my head right now."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡExsHkSRpHU
"Nooo!" Zoey exclaimed as she sat upright on the chair.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bRQ7tNssx
We all turned to look at her. I wondered if she had hit her head or something today.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdNUQKATykG
"What's wrong now?" Daesung asked rolling his eyes at her.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8je2YCQOKU
"Look guys, I know it's a1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9nPDHPgko
good thing to talk about the music video and all, but can we do all 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1OXQdTjLU
that later and just go out and have fun?" Zoey suggested.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNl6XdSZtBl
"We all want to go and have fun, Zoey," said Taeyang. "But I see no harm in talking about this first."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0G9pAqUMD
"You and Mike were just talking about working on the choreography just now."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3MZX9ZWwfM
"So?" Taeyang, Mike and I asked at the same time.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKi0xdmBNI
"Can we just do all of that later? Like tomorrow?"1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7OFVBZIc7
I rolled my eyes. "You can be so annoying sometimes, Zoey."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2BhaJ5Q13G
"So, I see you guys are already planning on your music video," came Lee's voice as she came into the room.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmyYKjgbZCS
"Is that a good thing?" TOP asked.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYB3vEnIP6o
"Pretty much, yes," said Lee, nodding her head. "Because your managers are also planning on it."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKx3tTrIpbD
"That's 'not' a good thing," said Zoey as her hand held her cheek.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQHJHamLfIg
Every one turned to Zoey. I wondered why she was acting so negative today. Oh, wait. Now I remember.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmfP9z3TdUG
"You're so cranky today," said Christine. "That teddy still has you worked up."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfXcsV9dRzp
"You mean, this Mr Teddy?" Lee as she held up the little teddy in her hand.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxKOvgwTot
"Ah!" Zoey covered her eyes and she jumped up from her seat. "Take that thing out of my sight!"1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJDxK19CfG
"Oh my goodness, the drama queen is at it again," said Mike.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLa1iy0Yq1
"All I need is a day off," said Zoey as she rubbed her temples. "That is all I'm asking."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrumwqNBsGH
"Ya, you're right," I said. "You really need to go and relax yourself and get this teddy bear shenanigans out of your head."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf06Xmm4bu0
"Teddy bear 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9KYc7U3yV
shenanigans," said G-Dragon as he chuckled. Zoey gave him an angry stare1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡra7zje7pin
and G-Dragon stopped and pulled himself together.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡldSSPzSK4c
"Does that mean we have to get rid of the teddy bear then?" Lee asked as she looked at Mr Teddy.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmgUIEWk40h
"No, it's fine, we can keep him," I said.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMpFfSYWOy
"I don't want that teddy bear," said Zoey.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD7P2El1xih
"All in favour of keeping the teddy?" Daniel asked.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVEJeUeZHU
Everyone in the room raised their hands, except Zoey.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFIxFPNnXL
"You guys are doing this just to taunt me," Zoey folded her arms and frowned.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1tQIZx9u2u
"Let me see if I can talk to the managers so that you can go out or else you would blow up this place," said Lee.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2VwNLcV7V
"Please do," Zoey pleaded as she put her hands together.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsUkGZAiPfW
"That won't be necessary, Lee," said Collins as she came in the room with Yang Hyun-suk.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw15NruEGWc
"Can we please go?" Zoey asked, looking at Collins with hopeful eyes.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcmKo2tLlOS
"You can go," said Yang Hyun-suk. "You guys deserve it."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡypIBN8lnQm
Zoey sighed happily in relief and hugged G-Dragon who sat next to her. A lot of us were excited about it. Even me.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0fOPLfOb1f
"So, are there any plans of making a music video?" I asked as I turned to look at the managers.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZFCBHv3Zh
"Well, yes," said Collins. "We will make a music video."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08oxZAv4GH
"The single is too good for there not to be one," said Yang Hyun-suk.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEr3vVQOnc2
"You're right," said G-Dragon.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5NwqY6oPz
"We were even talking about it just now," said Seungri.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWqanECOtj
"Good, so tomorrow, we 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0IgkdHxvUc
would start looking at it and see what ideas you all have," said Yang 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMMosZOJBoY
Hyun-suk. "So, you can go out, have fun and get inspired."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTClaKGKiXX
"Oh, we will alright," I said.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ39oRaUbzz5
Collins and Yang Hyun-suk bid us farewell and left. We now started to think about where we should go out today.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1sbXXGJ5qy
"I know where we should go," said Seungri.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡstL300buR7
"Where?" Zoey and Mike asked at the same time.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlGq071uGQq
"Why don't we all go bowling?"1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa0cTRdkn2Z
"Bowling?" Christine, TOP and I now asked at the same time. That came out as a surprise.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6GcDJHDYjx
"Ya, it will be so much fun, just think about it."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQkBxRRpkks
"Well, I don't think it's a bad idea," said Lee.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Mj5zs1Z0e
"Ya, I think I haven't done anything competitive for a while," I said as I nodded my head.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Kdi6eUya2
"Apart from those little bets we used to do, you're right," said Daniel. "I'm ready for an 'in it to win it' situation."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiav6hKYO5M
"It's settled then," said Seungri. "We will go bowling."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzgj3tCY8BP
"What are we waiting for? Let's go," said Zoey excitedly.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqNcJkUe7ZK
"I'll come along too," said Lee.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkn7MOTHjuE
"That will be great," I said. "We might need you around."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9krbDNmy5D
In an instant, all of us1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡczHyZpwayJ
stood and started to walk out of the studio. Just as everyone had 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfEbunuKaYj
cleared out of the room and I was sure that I was the only one left, I 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2jTMixJdM9
was by the door when I quickly remembered that I had left my phone on 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAH8c8MfD7L
the couch.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3mutEmnbc3
When I turned around to 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB20sE6NvIm
head back into the room, I stopped dead on my tracks when I saw G-Dragon1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjnaaKtvCz
standing there with my phone in his hand.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzw8fgTOFZP
"Coming back for this?" G-Dragon asked as he waved my phone in his hand.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwAzzyRIaD
"Uh, yes," I said as I approached him.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6EuW83E5UF
Just as I got close to him, I made a hand for my phone but he drew his hand back. I raised an eyebrow at him.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡstqOJsUhpN
"May I have my phone back, please?" I asked, my palm wide.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8fqgC7L6Hx
"You're such a hypocrite, Sam," said G-Dragon.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXoLUFZxvZ5
I could feel my heart shatter when he said those words. Where did they come from all of the sudden?1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsYdVTFGKYM
I shook my head, confused. "What do you mean by that?"1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31pXqQ1jXv
G-Dragon almost laughed 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC2TxHlYyvP
but a simple and mocking "ha!" came out of his mouth. "Don't start 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfgaLWDZ3p4
pretending now, Sam. You know exactly what I'm talking about. What were 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVoniGgeqJj
you and Daesung up to when Zoey and I found you two down in the hall? 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡssWx3O0EMs
Apart from looking for us, of course."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyO18tPBGgT
I blinked. What was I 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNE5rRROMv4
going to say now? I felt cornered when I knew I did nothing wrong. I 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cgcJ8miXm
knew how G-Dragon must be feeling right now. Not after what he and I 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslcTVjbaxK
talked about yesterday at the park.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfp3qxXM5UD
"Aren't you going to say anything?" G-Dragon asked.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZPUgDvFdl
Still, no words came out1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzxywD07nAB
of my mouth. Even if I tried to defend myself, he wasn't going to 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTCMm3fwKuj
believe me. He was hurt and I could see it in his eyes.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrF455ULajc
"Why are you quiet, Sam?" He took a step closer towards me. "Answer me."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtSzd0w2OW8
I closed my eyes, took a breath and opened my eyes. I looked directly in his eyes.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmy4iFaIYgI
"You wouldn't believe me even if I told you," was all I could say.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeU3vUno5dn
G-Dragon looked at me 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56oU2byXUc
with disgust and pulled himself back away from me. He shook his head and1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwx6PWVnP1O
seeing him look at me like that almost made me want to cry in torment. I1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGrRV8W0zo3
could feel the tears in my eyes, ready to drop.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxngk6KKVl
"Hey, what's keeping you two so long?" Lee appeared at the door.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUidmhXoOZF
"Nothing. Sam, left her 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBrtnKXNqps
phone and I was just about to bring it to her," said G-Dragon. He didn't1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFYC3m1Q0cE
look angry like he had earlier on.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmy0sPbviKA
"Okay, we are waiting for you," said Lee.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5GAP1yq392
G-Dragon gave Lee a 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvo54TZZDmX
smile and gave my phone back without even saying a word. I took it 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0zFBP5RhBm
without looking at him. I was too afraid to say anything and I didn't 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDOduNzmqg
want him to notice my tears if they ever fell.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHNEquFZavS
G-Dragon left the room and I was left alone with Lee, whom I hadn't even turned around to look at.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04xbINnhLY
"Hey, are you okay?" Lee asked as I heard her coming closer behind me.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXD77Wiqu02
"Nothing, Lee," I said as I turned around to face her.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGyNoGNdbWT
I could see her facial expression change as soon as she saw my face.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡccWub2y2Qv
"Did you two argue, again?" Lee asked.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF9HjS9VfFR
"I don't want to talk 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJuE6m20dNF
about it." Surprisingly, no tear fell. I had to put up a show for 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQGp1D1lPn
everyone, but I was worried that I wasn't going to put up with it for 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrciLMONOgt
much longer.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxR86BewlgT
Lee didn't say anything.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbllqH8YsyO
That was one thing I really loved about her. She was not one to push 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO5iKmfAbt3
you to say things you don't want to say. She so understood.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnEoV8TidPo
We went out of the 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6OhvOWyMai
studio together and met the others downstairs. They were all settled in 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvOM744WZq
the two black SUVs. I just made sure not to go in the vehicle where 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPyAcl1pn75
G-Dragon was.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFP7L53CdLc
We went to a bowling 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkVuAk1xbg
alley in Gangnam. As soon as we all stepped out of the cars, a few faces1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2vLFS3OHEw
turned our way. A few phones perked out of people's pockets and bags 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJhPwtZeW4
and a few photos were taken.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoCbeaI8n4u
As we went in the 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfUolTD4hQ
bowling alley at the counter to change our shoes to bowling shoes, we 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmunJJOkChO
had already attracted so much attention to those who were already having1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgF5PsYPnIu
fun in the bowling alley.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTalcTMXSA
"Sam?" Lee called out to me as soon as I got the right bowling shoes for myself. I turned to look at her.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMsDASoguuS
"What is it, Lee?" I asked.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxxVvEarvB
Lee took me by the arm and dragged me further away from the others who were quickly changing their shoes.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxiTnGYCBIK
"Are you sure you want 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUUB9Z1qUY
to go through with this?" Lee whispered so as not to catch the attention1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfiTcxnYhpG
of the fans who were happily looking at us.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ33OYk50uFg
"With what?" I asked.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2Mc77rTfB
"You being here. You can always leave. You don't have to stay, not after what happened with you and G-Dragon."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡduWvwWsmbu
"Are you scared things might get a little out of control?" I raised an eyebrow.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81oRhq1y7N
"Well, ya!" Lee nodded 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGS18tMcMDa
her head frantically. "Who knows, he might just throw a bowling ball 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZcz6fAXq9A
over your head if not drop it on your toes."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJ5InHFQxt
"Thanks for looking out 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZbivywmaf
for me, Lee. But I can't keep stalling these guys. I haven't really gone1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDRWp7q3T0
out with them for a while just to have fun. And when I leave, they will1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfR2cLxHw36
get suspicious."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1hJKVN8x3
Lee looked at me sadly 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKnxE1K4N9A
but managed to put up a smile. "I know you're doing all this for the 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtpk5bwYbX
others, but you have to look out for yourself too."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0lFduaZuK
"That's why I've you and the other Toxins, don't I, especially my brothers. I'll also try my best not to punch GD in the face."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHDq1f2p5J
"Fine. Let's go change into our bowling shoes."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBpUjdMxjZD
I smiled. Talking to Lee1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwoBsFKNvl
gave me a lot of comfort. We went back to the shoe counter and changed 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBw2a9eGKuN
into our bowling shoes. I also got myself some bowling gloves too.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxJ9NwI2NN
We joined the others at one of the bowling lanes and they were all getting ready for the game.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJiM6Vq8Cat
"So, how are we going to do this?" Taeyang asked.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWXaxQFOoyC
"Should we make it more like a competition?" Christine asked.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDWOlXCtpmd
"If it is a competition, the more fun it will be," said Seungri.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0GjwOvmXxE
"So, why don't we say BigBang verses The Toxins?" Lee suggested. "That already sounds fun."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcefJfAybD
"Cool," I said with a smile and my arms folded. "BigBang verses The Toxins."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8ye84w621
"You guys are going down!" Mike said with a mocking sneer.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGA8G6VOzB
"We will see about that," said TOP.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0pUh5GASp
"We have the best bowler in the house right here," said Daniel as he pointed at me.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxPlF1roEY
"Really?" Daesung asked.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCo1a3Z2Jj5
"Well, ya, I had practised bowling during my years in high school," I said. "It's been a while."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTUxMuydjPd
"We will see if your bowling skills are as good as your singing," said G-Dragon with a smirk on his face.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZgvLyxcl7p
"Ya, we will see," I said trying my best not to frown at him.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xsOdkEM2Y
"There has to be a prize for whoever wins," said Zoey.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo719KRiVRu
"But what's the prize going to be?" Lee asked.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm1jpYjqYtZ
"I've an idea," said G-Dragon. "How about whichever team loses, does whatever the other team tells them to?"1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsmTKQX9kE8
I have always hated that kind of condition in a game. I wondered if he had set that up just because of me.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMJcfhY4RD
"Deal," Zoey, Mike and Daniel said at the same time.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNA9VUVeqgW
Christine, Lee and I turned to look at them. "No!"1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOSE2EKggF
"Why not?" Zoey shrugged. "It sounds okay to us."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59EiEWhZW5
"But not to some of us," I said.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSaFSsFFkAE
"Guys, come on, it's just a game," said TOP. "I mean, we don't really have to take it seriously."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8JtWTLtbf
"I'm taking it seriously," said G-Dragon.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDdCc0kLhhX
"Ya, me too," said Seungri.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBAvnArxHyl
"Me three," Mike said. "Please, Sam. Let's just do this. If we win, we can make the kings of k-pop do whatever we want."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzlAzPOVJif
"That's it then," I said as I snapped my fingers.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF2rFlnLHus
"What?" the others asked as they looked at me.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFp309lbz5d
'"If The Toxins win, we 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLmdlUb2Ae
get to be the kings and queens of k-pop until we leave Korea. If we 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNPAakKR1E
lose, we get to do whatever they want, considering that they are the 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56vJHY3QV8
kings of k-pop after all."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAH9cmZa7fE
"Now you're talking," said Daniel rubbing his hands together.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ITGkmaBvY
"Come to think of it, I 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYuibis7aZ8
wouldn't mind being the queen of k-pop for a while," said Christine as 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFln0dEkaW
she smiled to herself and seem to be in her own thoughts.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8DRaRNskat
"Do you guys accept?" I asked as I looked over at the BigBang members.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5MSWw2dTd
"Ya, I agree," said Taeyang.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2n9OuVn84
"Game on," said G-Dragon.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUGUxoYNCKz
"May the best team win," I said.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9AcZnFPHu
I hadn't realised this 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAzrGTrgkQ9
sooner but when I turned around, there was a crowd of fans holding up 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZO97wjAZhZ
their phones taking pictures and videos of the whole thing. Oops. Looked1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiLLXQFzMw6
like they already knew the condition of the game and they were happily 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVmV1xUvpp
chattering about the whole thing.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMIwcXJuPmG
"Jeez, I never noticed that there were so many people," said Lee.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡycCT5PPj7d
"And they must have 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9vhD6gFWEm
heard everything," said Christine. "Will they be mad if we win and 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjv8C2uKRZE
become kings and queens of k-pop?" she asked as she lowered her voice.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeRabRt8DG9
"It's only temporary and besides, it's just a joke, no biggie," I said as I shrugged my shoulders.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPEl5KYVoER
"Okay, you guys get ready," said Lee. "I'll be recording your scores on the monitor."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSL0sn9vzX3
"These guys are in for a lovely treat," said Daesung as he turned to look at the fans.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGaREXDJyUU
"Ya, because we're going to tear you apart," said Mike.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡinRLC9O7Qe
Seungri waved a finger at him. "Not on our home turf."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKjaHfgE0Nv
"Just wait and see," said Christine. "In these kinds of situations, the underdogs always win."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAtgaEqO6hd
"We will see about that," said G-Dragon.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94PGaRVO5S
"Okay, guys," Lee called1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1T4SeDMnik
out to us from the game monitor and even the fans paid attention. "I 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPiKcWbp2sA
have set your team names in and you could see through the TV monitor 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEEz2cO8PFO
above you. The monitor is automatic, so it will be recording your 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipjPF7QbgG
scores. So, let the game begin."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvaz6a5EJz
There was soon a round 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGprkZimCV
of applause coming from the fans. It looked like they were enjoying this1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5gfcm9xPx
as though it was an international bowling game. When I thought we were 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡisxDZZj25P
going to have fun, I wasn't expecting a huge crowd. I made a mental note1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQz8mhTlfn
not to make Seungri choose which place to go to next time.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmsIcKg9YUH
"BigBang, since it's your territory we're playing on, you will go first," said Lee.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf2TCPnY62p
"I'll go first," said G-Dragon. "Let me show you how a true leader does it."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ53iPDiS5gn
I rolled my eyes at him 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18wrLvTcSO
while the rest of my team stuck out their tongues at him like little 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVuavbY18U
kids as we all took our seats on the bench.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1cleea4jLb
G-Dragon got a red 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN0UygqLpuH
bowling ball from the ball rack and the crowd cheered for him and so did1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmsruVJ0e5h
the rest of his team. He inserted his forefinger, middle finger and 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqvpJMEcVq4
thumb into the inserts, the small holes on the bowling ball to grip it 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqyXAJdm8i
properly.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvK82NuZSN4
He stood upright as he 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrOl2PuWm9y
faced the bowling lane, ready to run the ball down and strike the pins. I1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWCSQ0oo5Ws
could see the concentration in his eyes as he looked towards the pins. I1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdg9wlPeGPL
just hoped he wasn't going to have a clear strike.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6BWytBi7it
With the ball held up on1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFKLpLSTcq
his hands, he took a few steps forward with enough momentum to drive 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9wUo9CcXv
the ball. As he bent downwards to release the ball, it rolled its way 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUt6Bu2F08Z
down the lane with so much momentum that when it hit the ten pins, they 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXtDWJvWT9a
all fell.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZaOcXQYzvp
"Stttt-rike!" Lee yelled behind the gaming board.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHX42vnrMLB
Everyone cheered all 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡty4zlCO5T9
around us and G-Dragon smiled at the crowd and bowed as though he just 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwA9FYgYJuk
gave a show of his life. His team also cheered and they went round to 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnuWIE7PdiI
hug him.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoN1AepFk8z
"That was a stunning 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZ6Lc08Qy7
strike from BigBang's one and only, G-Dragon," Lee announced from a 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFTL3z7BlKk
microphone in front of her. I wonder where that came from.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Pw95WBAeI
"Yikes, that was good," said Mike, scratching his head. "Who's going to start for us?"1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0eFS6qVtiU
"I'll do it," I said, but Zoey held my shoulder before I could stand up from the bench.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW27VwzBIWq
"I'll do it," said Zoey.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhQoI3WV4l
"Are you sure?" Christine asked. "I think Sam should start. She is good at this after all."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjb4flc6mv
"And she is the leader," said Daniel.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZG9ZpH0TJ
"No, I said I'll do it," said Zoey and she stood up and went to get a pink bowling ball from the ball rack.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8DPDOsjNY2
She stood in the middle 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5xDaUMn2w
of the running lane and held the ball up to her chin. She took a deep 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdhrtgqBFg
breath and she stood upright. She took a few quick steps forward and 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxdB0Kziot
released the ball.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvDsUCWLMPM
The ball rolled and I 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs7aG1Xeh3U
had my fingers crossed and so did Christine. Mike and Daniel had their 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK9aPE1q2Ei
fingers in their mouths that I was afraid they would bite them off at 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBeNCk3vcvj
any moment.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ayRYSJH0G
Unfortunately, when Zoey's ball hit the pins, only six were knocked down. Bummer. Zoey shook her head.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMasayz7wd
An "oooh" came from the 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ704z4Pi2gO
crowd but they managed to clap and cheer for Zoey. She still had a 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQljdyfPAK
second ball and maybe we could get away with a spare.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeuBRuoAJOI
Lee hissed in the microphone. "Ooh, that was unexpected. Will Zoey manage to get away with it with a spare?"1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmu89lOexx
"Come on, Zoey, you can do this!" Daniel cheered as he clapped his hands.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHSBCSJq8hM
The rest of us on the 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhdSLY2LrHy
bench cheered as Zoey rubbed her hands together and went back to the 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDB4utD1nAd
ball rack to retrieve the pink bowling ball.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjXXTsh114d
She positioned herself 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK9RZhzu7rc
on the running lane. She quickly took a few steps forwards and released 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUaA7zmxq4J
the ball as she swung her arm downwards. And this time she knocked out 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNRevmt6jGt
the remaining four balls.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJnDqkavND
"YES!" Zoey jumped up 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxEcmjqCBQ
like she could just fly in the air. The rest of us on the bench also 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUpNU84wOVG
jumped up celebrating and ran to hug Zoey. The rest of the crowd behind 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡElSN5m0v5S
us also cheered.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3NCQCQP8Ke
"Whoaaa! That was a close call and The Toxins have managed to get away with a spare!" Lee exclaimed excitedly in the microphone.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXzPFNn3pAM
"I'm so glad you knocked out all the pins," said Daniel.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6YIVUi0Jwz
"Let's just pray that they don't," said Christine looking over at BigBang.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrJajF7vTj
This time, it was 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOBfo1MbG8
Taeyang taking the second frame. We took our seats back on the bench and1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7fA6eisPS5
we all held each other's hand, hoping Taeyang might miss some pins.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0B4UeaX4ap
But he didn't, and he 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfBEwZGjqUt
got a clear good strike knocking down all the pins. There was a loud 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvzaj3ircb
cheer from the fans while some of us groaned in frustration. The BigBang1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZU7obNNBRd
members ran over to Taeyang to hug him.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6K3HoHO94Z
"Another stunning strike1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJ9I5VqGWi
from BigBang's Taeyang," said Lee. "I wonder if The Toxins have 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFmbhQDBMD
something up their sleeves to turn this game around."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCYOYpQJT0
"I'm going next," I said.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfciH9zUID
"Please have a strike," said Zoey.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfXHGWkZ0P
I nodded my head 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl8IVLX3N1A
assuring my team that I would, but I wasn't too sure of myself if I 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8tpXiDFX8a
could. After what happened with G-Dragon back at the studio, I could 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8rFHf6uls0
still had that negative effect in me. But I had to push those feelings 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhxebGJMJ0z
aside for the sake of my team.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRfjwngt14
I stood up from the 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwSsAoWjg6K
bench and the crowd cheered and there were others screaming my name. 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQ0R9964Ai
That gave me a little morale and I smiled as turned to look behind me.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiWD62OG75G
I went to the ball rack 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhsZE3PdLip
and and got a black ball with streaks of the colour purple. Somehow, the1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNJaKg5vNJ
ball looked to be covered with purple vapour around it.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8lFhOfQ4i
With the ball in hand, I1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtOHesJNOV1
inserted my fingers in the inserts. I went over to positon myself on 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoBaVekzDm1
the lane and I held the ball up close.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwiWmVfdB1I
For a moment, time 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtPtAEP9GBQ
stopped and I could feel myself shaking. What was wrong with me? I was 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOHb2FVHfk
scared. But why? Was it that there were so many people watching and I 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0gf4ReCKmy
was afraid I would mess up?1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGNXf8gdyi
Oh, maybe it's because of G-Dragon?1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SWWdCkSIC
I tried my best to shake1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEC3QEZVyxM
off the feeling and focus. I couldn't let this affect me. Maybe Lee was1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3YpGXW5n3I
right. I wasn't supposed to be here. I was angry and frustrated with 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfsrFTY3h0
myself. I was too frustrated that I had no idea how I was going to make 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3fcCLgSZho
G-Dragon understand what happened between Daesung and me.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPLKLVgxo3l
Don't let it get to you, Sam. There will be a time for that later. For now, just do what you do best.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ32UtIyQeHw
I don't know how or 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRS8O6jcXH
where that voice came from, but it was like someone had whispered into 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWqE3o7JZws
my ear, but I was definitely sure it was in my head.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs9yD55MP62
I took a deep breath and1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx6aPk4mCA8
I took quick steps forward as though I was sprinting and bent forward 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpzEFiJqPC
as I let the the ball loose from my grip and watched it roll.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgwsd7aXwr
I watched the ball roll 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYsdDiNMC66
and for a moment, I couldn't tell if the ball was going at full 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsh1467xv1U
momentum. Everything seemed to be going in slow motion.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrRd4r1wsb
The next thing I knew, the ball hit the pins. All of them fell instantly. I couldn't believe my eyes.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZWJKlcIXX
The next thing I knew, 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Dno9KexXG
my whole team surrounded me and I was caught up in their hug. It was 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZBjSZe3XEX
then that the noise around me filled my ears. I hadn't noticed all the 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKWFvEwWdY
noise. It felt like my ears were unblocked just there and then.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvz0rEkBqq
"AAAHHH!!!!" Zoey and Christine exclaimed, deafening me.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEdnauUq7ib
"You did it, Sam!" Mike exclaimed.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6XGOUYkasa
"I knew you still had it in you," said Daniel.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMmUjowGQfs
I was too speechless to even say anything. I was completely overwhelmed. And the crowd were cheering like crazy.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4UPFG4Q9No
"I didn't know I still had it in me," I said as I tried to keep myself together and not let the emotions get the better of me.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmmLS4olmj
"Let's not get too excited, guys," said Zoey. "Let's go and settle down."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcMLZLmqakv
"That was a stunning strike from the one and only BK. Let's see if BigBang can try to surpass them," said Lee.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1t8cfDxD4
I looked up at the score1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLvqq22YJ2
board. We were ahead of them with a lot more points than I expected. If1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLq8yjab7A
we could get another strike and maybe even a couple of spares, we may 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH3Ob9LPxZK
win this for sure.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgurjuRZkS
Seungri came up for the third frame. He took a white and black bowling ball and got himself ready.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJLiV1nYy7d
This time Seungri 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoi8RbCiMEX
managed to hit only four pins. That was a relief. But he still had a 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzeBzXySMN
spare and if he managed to bring the other six down, he might get away 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9kNAZBCrk
with it.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1OSCcewoFF
Seungri went over to the ball rack and got his ball. This time, I was praying he wouldn't knock down all the pins.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspDYvONwSH
"I hope he doesn't knock them all down," Zoey whispered in my ear.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJkIxIC5Oxl
"Me too," I whispered back.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5roVi7Zoik
Seungri relaxed his 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKoQmYoui4g
shoulders and took a deep breath before he could release the ball. When 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡudsZstgKGN
he did, he ended up hitting them all.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRjgD5uzvlG
I groaned as I buried my1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0L4wjNDUI
head in my hands while the crowd and the rest of the fans cheered 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTH27KsjhHI
behind us. The BigBang members also cheered.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgs6nT6cUFJ
"Whoa, looks like BigBang are banging on the door now," said Lee. "How will The Toxins respond to that?"1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpy3PhaGWzb
"Okay, I'm going next," said Christine. "I'll show them."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ZM9Kxh0mT
"Ya, you go, girl!" Zoey cheered for Christine as she stood up from the bench and went over to get a yellow bowling ball.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSUxxDB1db
After relaxing herself 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDSQ45XeQmP
and twisting her neck to release the knots, Christine took a deep breath1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqRc9EU1IU
and sprinted forward. She released the ball just in time before the 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1j48W3eCgR
foul line because if she did, the throw would have been a foul and it 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmsCduokLr
wouldn't count. But that wasn't the best part.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCdTW4Z69uR
"A double for The 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSRO4OdODbD
Toxins! These guys are now on fire," said Lee as cheers filled the 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmWwqlU7a4
bowling alley and we went over to hug Christine.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwaG4RIdtL4
"That was awesome! A double strike," said Zoey.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt428o7UWnw
"We might just win this all the way," said Mike as he looked up at the score board.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIPz5FdOtt
"Hopefully, we would," I said.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJFtM7Vg0y
TOP came up for the 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiR8I135PGF
fourth frame and this time, my team and I had our arms outstretched and 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFVygg8sin
wiggling our fingers, as though we were a group of witches and wizards 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ45r36qXJXu
trying to jinx TOP to miss a few pins. We were all muttering shambolic 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGBkBRFTSqT
words as though we were casting spells. A few fans behind us laughed at 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSRZHrIQp07
the incident.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qnEHc2fMW
"Stop doing that," G-Dragon snapped at us.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgeTgG6Eevk
"Why?" Zoey asked. "I bet you were also praying for us to miss too."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM1MqIF6kWB
"You're making it too obvious," said Taeyang.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjfw2y0iYdb
"Maybe if we do, things might go in our favour," I said.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvUBle9Y2k4
"We'll see about that," said G-Dragon as he frowned at us. But I was pretty sure that that frown was meant for me.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLLGIddQEpO
TOP only laughed as he 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYCMuou5iL
looked at us and turned to look ahead of him again, towards the bowling 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqm7QqVs7al
pins. He held the white bowling ball in his hand and sprinted forward 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOBlzz3rQqR
and let the ball roll. Unfortunately for us, he got a strike.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZjiYVTBMZw
"BigBang with a strike!"1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE49cBtkUb2
Lee announced as there were cheers around us. "These guys are banging 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj3Sptwxnbl
for victory and they look like they aren't giving in."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSSgWBXtU2
"For a second there, I thought he was going to miss," said Daniel.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmyWKgxjNQO
"Well, you thought wrong," said TOP as he stood in front of us with a huge smile on his face. "We're so winning this."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbqn16C3DyV
"Don't be too confident," I said as I looked up at TOP. "Someone might chip off your wings and you will come crushing down."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIl9LwWPNqA
"If it means crushing down for you, I would, my lovely jagiya," said TOP as he bended over me that he was so close.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmKV25MQ6Vz
There was a playful 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhE4OVpMouZ
"whooo!" coming from the ladies behind us. I couldn't help but blush and1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHEJtEJtPW
I looked away. Mike and Daniel growled as though they were about to 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2qzZJiFYf
tear TOP apart like wolves.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOghBE4gejP
"Awww! It's getting hot 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxjhCHN1Tp
in here," said Lee as she raised her eyebrows towards TOP and I. "So 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYW4Cg1IKe
cute. You're making some of us jealous."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5lmjaZTWY
At the corner of my eye, I noticed G-Dragon's angry stare towards us. I pretended not to notice.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9FC8va2PP
"Come on, guys," said Mike. "Let's keep our head in the game. I'm going next."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNu51GTu1RP
"All the best," said TOP as he went over to sit with his team.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGfFHvQ7wj
Mike mimicked him as he 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXlhssiZek5
got up from the bench and took a sky blue bowling ball. He went over to 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmTFOpRaz9
stand in the middle of the lane and after preparing himself, he sprinted1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZB2vax6i9
forward and let the ball roll. When the ball hit the pins, three pins 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNAePtqgUG
remained standing. One on the left, the other two on the right.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnJzbX1Zy4m
"OMG, a split," I said as I looked onwards at the pins.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCepQeDsdK
"Dang it!" Mike muttered as he stomped his foot on the floor.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZfSWkCD1E
For a moment, there was 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzA4yJh3Lz9
murmuring in the crowd and I knew what they were thinking. Was Mike 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡigMJmkD3W3
going to be able to do it? It was a split after all and not everyone who1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡChBM0PpbPQ
played bowling ever got away with it. That's if you weren't a 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqQvoVLFMz
professional bowler.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeR5PxcuXgJ
"Wow, a split. This is going to be interesting," said Lee.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgqpO7p7mcO
My team and I turned to look at Lee with frowns on our faces. Lee shrugged. She was clearly not helping.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfhz3cQp5wF
"I would love to see you guys get away with this one," said G-Dragon.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHeJ880d96
"Oh, shut up," said Zoey waving her hand at him.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8zdCE24Zlh
I turned to Mike, completely ignoring G-Dragon and his team.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe7j8XUt4io
"Listen, Mike, don't panic, okay?" I said to him.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2xeeejKFQw
Mike stood still as he looked at me, took a deep breath and said, "okay, not to panic. Got it."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr13P9x2l3h
"Go for the ones to the 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDSPg8spE0B
left first," I said. "With the ball going at full momentum it might just1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxyFChZSlKg
let one of the pins go to the other side and knock the remaining pin 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUuKdrmEwMs
down."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIg6n2z2JnZ
"You're sure?"1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs5mh6LmRjc
"I wouldn't trust her if I were you," G-Dragon said to Mike with a smirk on his face.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFNg0XXjOv5
I looked at G-Dragon and1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxl8aQlGzLg
I could clearly see that he was really going at me right now. Other 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZQdiyG1hF
people might think all of this as playful trash talk, but only he, Lee 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXINTxEAJv
and I knew it was something completely out of the ordinary.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz4EEXgJ2WZ
"Trust me, Mike," I said as I turned to look at my brother.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJFWumD1Vnz
With full confidence, he nodded his head and went over to the ball rack and got the blue bowling ball he had used before.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJdCPzGjFy
He went to the middle of1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEeFTfhI14v
the lane and had the ball held up in both hands. He sprinted forward, 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu32FwzQv1t
and with his right hand, let the ball roll. This time, it wasn't rolling1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD96mN9w2zK
down the middle but to the left side at full speed. In the end, the 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhOmuDCqxhV
ball hit the two pins on the left and one of the pins flew to the right 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhm7OOeMG3
side knocking the other down.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMGtJ4aS54X
There was a loud cheer 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpk2PABbSGh
like never before in the bowling alley. And the next thing I knew, I had1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxOQ2G59z3e
fallen off the bench with my back on the floor because Mike quickly ran1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpjuTWSlsbI
straight to hug me and we both fell over. The other Toxins followed and1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu0tTaBHqzT
the next thing we knew, we were all piled up on top of each other.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Eo6JqfdBM
"We did it!" Mike exclaimed.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXRxAFjgpGh
"Get off me, guys! 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx8U4AHsiG9
You're all so heavy!" I exclaimed. I couldn't take the weight of the 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYgS1Lzx3cz
others and they were crashing me like a bug.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ojHYoPF6x
One by one, they all 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2mdvOh8ov0
stood up and Mike and Daniel slowly pulled me up. There were still 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi89eYa5PGu
cheers coming from the crowd. Mike had done me so proud by finishing off1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG61B8kdm1t
that split and had also impressed everyone else too. I doubt if I could1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡui02KVqmTs
have done better than he did.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wVqW2D9QH
"What a way to complete a spare from The Toxins!" said Lee through the mic. "That got everyone wild. What a stunner!"1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEdqCM0US0X
"You did it, Mike!" I said as I hugged him. "I'm so proud of you. Mum and dad would too."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9nOx2h2DDz
"It's because I listened to you," said Mike with a smile. "You're the best!"1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VIZBK3Yh4
"How did you know how to finish off a split?" Zoey asked me.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHsinj3XiVb
"I was taught from the 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjlMsExG3HK
best," I said. "Though I was never successful during my practise days to1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Hm2rmbCYk
finish it off. Sometimes it takes a little bit of luck to do that."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3a9YaUgGuu
"What do you think about that now?" Christine asked as she addressed the BigBang members.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqv9MjLcPqZ
"I'll admit, that was pretty good," said Daesung.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3uv93npvZY
"Yep, that was just incredible," said Seungri.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoGRa7xZqVv
"Stunning," said TOP.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDtvypNoBgt
"Let's just move on, shall we?" G-Dragon asked as he rolled his eyes at us.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYFyOzdLbQ5
We all went back on our bench and tried to keep it cool, but the excitement couldn't leave our faces.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf169m2dGD3
Daesung came up next and1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAONn1P1xqK
took a black bowling ball from the bowling rack. He got himself ready 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67EGh9PQaj
to bowl and when he did he knocked out all the pins except for one.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUtHXwwcrZD
"Ah, shoot!" Daesung muttered to himself.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQQJclCe3D
"Don't worry, Daesung you can do it!" Seungri cheered for him.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGziPy0ZbJo
No one on our side said 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdn3otTnLvI
anything. The worst thing you could possibly do is cast an evil eye on 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5glqlfaPOV
the ball and make it go the other way. Though I was praying that Daesung1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDt4aZ4fHqq
should miss the last pin.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhgCZNlP1PE
After Daesung got his 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmlcFA7C0Yn
ball, and let it roll, I closed my eyes, hoping that if I did, I might 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKgyrWgRH7X
just get the surprise of my life. But I didn't. He hit the last pin and 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TJKzLqi7j
there was a loud cheer from the crowd.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxGFH45SE4
"Okay, my turn," said Daniel. "I hope I get a strike."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhcC6Voy2ev
"You can do this bro!" Mike cheered for his brother.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtb0e18mL4k
Daniel got a green 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT1S0XmPd5L
bowling ball and got himself ready to roll the ball. When he did, the 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kHZgtVPmi
ball rolled down the middle and even though it wasn't going as fast as I1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwb9kjmvJ7
had expected it to, all the pins got knocked down.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh434M556Rx
"Strike!" Lee exclaimed. "That was brillant from The Toxins!"1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlYqlJgK0a4
My team and I ran to hug1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZJcHBSPeJ
Daniel and praised him saying that he had done a good job. As for 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGgvFDzsqd
Daniel, he still couldn't believe that he got away with a strike.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKfLdFnHIh
We were in the sixth frame now and G-Dragon came up again, following the same sequence as before.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81G20kTiLJ
This time, when G-Dragon rolled the ball, he got another strike. Good for him.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5S1lPQFv6A
Zoey came up and this 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM5XJraKA8e
time, she got away with a strike. She was on top of the world and 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbDc8Z8Vz1L
couldn't stop cheering and dancing around, that Christine and I had to 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAAIscVzXxb
drag her back to the bench.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYcR68OCqx
It was Taeyang's turn and apparently he got away with a strike too. He was really good. Hats off to that one.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfo3C7DQffx
It was now my turn, but then, Daniel stopped me by grabbing my hand as I stood up.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9OhShCxbIN
"What is it Daniel?" I asked.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfr4NHLTbBO
"May I take this one?" he asked.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1LnbPkMwJC
"But why? It's my turn."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP5LfeYqRhN
"I know. I just don't want to take the last frame, if you know what I mean."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGewbeCWsO
I knew exactly what he 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2eDyiuGMbo
meant. The person who takes the last frame takes three balls. The last 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsppDaPq19w
frame was the most crucial part in the game.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCj878o6dm
"You want us to swap?" I asked.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡScXjJ1k0q1
"Ya. Let me take this one, please?" Daniel asked.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9IwAFuvwJ
"Okay, fine," I said as I went back down on the bench and he got up.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzfzHkfJxuD
Daniel knocked down seven pins with his first ball but managed to go away with a spare with his second.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8M5XpaNbcB
It was TOP's turn and this time, he only managed to hit five pins with his first ball and the other five with his second.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGgR2EvEwFP
Mike however managed to get away with a strike. He was on top of the world today.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOOKpJd3Jp
Seungri came up for the 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAR4yrIjJTS
ninth frame and this time he managed to knock down seven pins with his 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovDGkevfVi
first ball and the three with his second.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKtWaTxCgTa
Christine came up and and knocked out six pins. With her second ball she just knocked out one pin. That was a bummer.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl7eMXbboZi
"Oh gosh!" Zoey and I muttered at the same time.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsaAZ53leY
"Ah, oh," said Lee. "That's going to affect the scores."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwtSzOdSZki
I hope not because we 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2n0PNo255
were now heading to the last frame and that meant three balls had to be 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV2AgTrJQIv
played. Yikes, I was shaking this time. How I wished I never decided to 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZpVGLfSQ89
take up the tenth frame.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbNk2t2P3dg
Daesung stood up from the bench and I could tell he was nervous as I was.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2u2rTUmQK
He took the black bowling ball and soon rolled the ball. He had a strike and the crowd behind us cheered.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGvCyEpcrH
With his second ball, he only got to knock out eight pins. With his third ball he knocked out the remaining two pins.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GPANWQJCL
There was a loud cheer 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXSivXCU8ra
from the crowd and I looked up at the score board. Because Christine 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH9bCqHFiOO
only knocked out seven pins, the only way to win this was if I could get1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnD1Lvl7n2
away with three strikes. Which was difficult. And pretty terrifying.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfbfJ1J6Hp
I stood up from the bench and Daesung looked over at me.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHktfvDUn3
"All the best, Sam," he said.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsATG2dEo5M
"Th-thanks," I said as 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKd7UiitPbL
looked to the floor and tucked a strand of my hair and went over to get 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡymtcAPESC6
the black bowling ball with streaks of purple on it.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgywC8Yyu8f
I took a deep breath 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡicwv741bg9
when I positioned myself on the lane. When I got to sprint forward and 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡURyEvUMZjt
let the ball roll, I closed my eyes, not hoping to see if I would knock 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQtzScdVz7
down the pins or not.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHcwCh8grVq
There was a loud 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUtrfSuEYPW
thundering cheering behind me that for a moment, I thought the ground 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeuPx1L5rJv
was shaking. I opened my eyes and in front of me, down the bowling lane,1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcgdyK7KpRb
the pins had been knocked down.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPeLm6jaLGQ
I got ready for the second ball and using the same ball, I let it roll. Again, another strike.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnDss38b4G4
My team and the rest of the crowd cheered.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17jR86m56m
I shook my hands and tried to relax myself for the last ball. If I had another strike we might just win the game.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOJonXAzW3
I got the ball again and1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKnOUSoCscz
this time, everyone was silent. This felt like the finale, which it 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7ylYKsOOr
was, and I was kind of terrified. What if I missed it?1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwqWKZAmcPy
I shook that negative thought out of my head, took a deep breath and focused ahead of me towards the pins.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLOlUAz9pBB
I sprinted forward and 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Y2Dou6aGh
just as I released the ball, things went in slow motion. The ball went 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE3AsWHj8Bq
down to the left side. That made my heart skip a beat. This was it. It 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ53uzz37N4W
was already over for me and my team.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSNMSykLAW
When the ball hit the 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGQWoRtVQiA
pins on the left side, the pins dropped and one by one, they fell like 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBpqtIAfWd0
dominoes. When all the pins had dropped,the last one that remained was 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjREL3tzwsC
toppling from side to side. I prayed that it will fall over.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡesU7pjW0qF
It did.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXlVYJAcY2m
And I screamed like crazy.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7UNxI4XE5Q
"They have done it! The 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdbZX83UV6
Toxins win! The score, The Toxins, 208, and BigBang, 206!" Lee exclaimed1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIZ8oR9994X
so loudly in the microphone through the noisy cheers coming from the 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvpJnkP6Tu
crowd.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPX55bLOOU
Confetti rained down on 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfs93KrOZfu
me from no where and for a moment I felt like I was caught in my own 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcagysaDCnN
fairytale. Then my whole team surrounded me and we found ourselves in a 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl7vMAf5awQ
circle hugging each other and jumping up and down.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWAug3OCUPr
"You did it, Sam!" Mike exclaimed loud enough to hear him.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2m8M713EJn
"I know, right!" I exclaimed so happily.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWuZ7pRnwnl
"Do you know what this means? We're the kings and queens of k-pop!" Christine exclaimed so loudly.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoRb4lD33uU
"WHOOOHOOO!" Zoey exclaimed loudly, raising her arm in the air.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwowS0KDSl9
"Congrats, Sam!" Taeyang came to break us up to hug me.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvuZyzuftO
"Thanks," I said with a smile.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVzFbzIcSS
TOP, Daesung and Seungri1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9DFFKL13E
also came to congratulate us and we ended up celebrating together. It 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4XoIw155Q
didn't matter who won the game, as long as we had a hell lot of fun.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNpiq17Ai6i
G-Dragon and Lee had came up to us and Lee pulled me into a hug. G-Dragon had gone over to congratulate Zoey and the others.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRv66m6aOPw
"You were awesome out there," said Lee as she looked at me. "You guys did it!"1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkojwFw9zLC
"To be honest, I was pretty scared," I said.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQCPkwZXJr
"But despite all that 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVftUb33w6j
was going on with you and GD, you kept your head in the game and kept 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8H7vaufXR3
your team going. On that, you really impressed me."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3VAoz5fkbU
Lee hugged me again and 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqR25MUZZOH
the place was full of flashing cameras. Not just from the fans, the 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAf0UP09vMm
paparazzi were here as well. I had barely even noticed them.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Ynes9Y6rf
"Congrats, Sam," came G-Dragon.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZMvtVHGBte
Lee pulled herself away 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhnLy2AU08d
from me and went over to the others to celebrate with them. I turned to 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUK2U3IzDr
look at G-Dragon with a smile on my face.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSRJzsvnpK
"Thanks," I managed to say. "You guys also played well."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwA8G3Rkwut
"Well, we were just having fun."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMr0QDbvMu4
"Ya, we were."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9SCEc9ZHb7
We stood silent looking good at each other and still happy cheers filled the place and the cameras were flashing like crazy.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwuYXKtbsyH
"About what happened with Daesung and I back at YG, it's not what you think."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw37juDZf4C
"Save it, Sam," said G-Dragon. "Now isn't the time to talk about it. It's time to celebrate."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6ZOjSRXaP
I could tell that he was1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQX15VlxArk
clearly trying to avoid the topic and he still had that hate for me in 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY33AvWYf00
his eyes. It was going to be completely hard to convince him now. And 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlpj3sPgnwa
things weren't going to be the same between us after this.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUnGbBAf1r
"You know, you really 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡswOippCmAN
are full of surprises, Sam," he continued. "You ended up winning the 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHzkfhDjod
game with three strikes in a roll. And also you're one big hypocrite."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXN2aJlkYX
I felt my face turn pale by those words and I looked down on the floor feeling bad for myself.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMxlg5Hbu1
"You guys!" Zoey called as she came over to us. "The owners of this bowling alley would like to take a few pictures with us."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkpS91ZXxIu
"Okay, sure," said G-Dragon as he walked away and joined the others. As for me, I hadn't said a word.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCe8uSvuCj
"Hey, are you okay?" Zoey asked.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqTAaxRIjO
"I'm fine," I said, hoping that Zoey wouldn't notice my sad face.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡniaJx3Gb2k
"You don't have to lie to me. Something is going on between the two of you and I want to know what."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhDU0NreqK
"It's no big deal, Zoey."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ73bvX2GD69
"Well, it is to me. The 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB0Qe23CyvL
person I love the most is sad and you're not telling get me what's up. 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3mBZRcNRWr
You and I have a lot of talking to do when we get back to the hotel. For1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsEKS3TR3pd
now, smile, because we had so much fun and we won. We also have to get 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCV3db9fjM
our pictures taken."1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6bMQBcoLez
Zoey could be so 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPUaEBv5yY
melodramatic sometimes. But that's one of the reasons why she is my best1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2xDsswrjHs
friend. But telling her what's going on, means telling her the truth as1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWBSMg6IYyO
well. And that would crush her.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDK8BfkqKpG
I don't know if there 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmIXqAtYcPV
was any way I could fix what was broken between G-Dragon and I. Because 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbqevndv7Bb
it now felt like things had come to a point where he could no longer 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhrHPI4n5ti
trust me anymore.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡouXIAUp2kk
As G-Dragon and I stood 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHP9YURJLjl
next to each other to have a group picture taken with the owners of the 1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtluOJ1D8zt
bowling alley, I felt there was something odd between us.1014Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhoFElL8v9V
Like the atmosphere in the place had suddenly gone cold.
