I tapped my foot 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzWs38HP0s
impatiently onto the floor, not because I was waiting for the doors to 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpW4Lao6Dgi
open. But because I couldn't figure out what to say when I finally got 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvf6R4pDcRq
out. I was scratching my head as I thought of what to do. Was saying 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJ3UC4kr21
"hi" or "how are you" going to help? I wasn't too sure how I was going 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4iTWArS5ez
to start this conversation.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCaEy5DsF7d
And besides, the person I840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVsNyFW4hD
was about to meet, wasn't really expecting me to be here. So I better 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo8Aox9Mmgn
had a reasonable explanation for coming, which I already had. Or else, I840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDfuLHO1ia
might just kill myself out of embarrassment.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVbUcHZV8D
There was a small ding 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76PfIhKf2Z
sound when the elevator stopped. I realised that I had finally arrived. I840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCo1lb0mcgG
looked towards the doors as they started to slide open. I gulped. I 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMjhGOPR1z4
hope everything was going to go fine like I expected it to.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOTj0Thes0I
When the doors fully 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoviwI6JTqO
opened, I hesitated to walk out. But then, I stepped out quickly before I840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYRvm8i8Fi
even had the thought of chickening out at the last minute.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpc1OaUlFp6
"Zoey? What are you doing here?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTvNNOWeJs
I was staring at 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp41g4ttMHB
G-Dragon who was standing in the living area of his apartment. He looked840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmuj3ym7nH
a little surprised by my sudden visit and I could see he was a little 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXMG5wJJTy
disappointed too.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSDghuJJ1px
"Hi, GD," I said as I stood there. "I know you weren't really expecting me here."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSZ1knvg7T
"When I was told a lady had come to see me, I thought it might be Sam," said G-Dragon.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeNcbvS3J8K
"Ya, I know." I was a little nervous as I played with my fingers. "I had to come and talk to you."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCSYBwbECHH
"Please, do come in."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKpxEHeW7TG
"Thanks," I said as I walked into the living room and sat on the couch. G-Dragon sat right next to me.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFTONoA8HVZ
"Do you need anything?" he asked.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeUc6kqXLK6
"No, thanks," I replied. "I'm good."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasdys5zXDx
"How's Sam doing?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTVS1rCtKkt
"Oh, she's fine," I replied, playing with the strap of my purse on my lap. "Don't you two talk anymore? Like over the phone?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7U2bQ6QSwj
"We do, but our 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9kiOpMTmR
conversations don't last long." G-Dragon looked a little distant when he840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5XM1mpgU8p
said that. And I could tell the thought of Sam had completely taken 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6BzUSxvU9Z
over his mind.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwyOiCpJpa
I didn't say anything for a moment as I thought of what to say next.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhKHXDUNU87
"I know you feel bad that Sam's been ignoring you lately," I said. "It's so unlike her to do so, trust me."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrxUZbVAB7m
G-Dragon leaned back on to the couch. "Do you have any idea why?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBU0P3KsLvD
"Since I know her so well, yes. I do."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLCg75yfvn1
"What is it then? To be honest, I feel like I've done something wrong for her to be ignoring me."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtIgp4q7O3
"She's not ignoring you, GD."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFuyud1hyC
"What is she doing then?840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡarEZrmmLSu
It's now been two days since we last had a real conversation. That was 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHEZmO8CRWG
after the issue with Jehan was sorted out at the arts centre."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHCTjNZTD9
I laughed when I remembered Jehan and his goons being arrested. "I'll never forget that day. It was awesome."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvsIfiYJXn
"Ya. And people can't stop talking about how they loved our performance. And since then, Sam doesn't talk to me anymore."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1oNYknoGvw
With that last statement, I realised just how sad G-Dragon was with all this. And that's why I was here.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMGaXqdbvY
I knew Sam had been 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxEXprSOBo
ignoring G-Dragon the day after the arts center incident. She and I were840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpNZIfX86c
in the lounge going through social media, right after I came back from 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNTMnOXnExk
the police station to give my statement. We kept on receiving messages 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkjToBEzMK0
from fans and family back home because of our stunning performance the 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZoRFBt4azQ
night before. When her phone started to ring, she completely ignored the840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWgEuqI1t6
call. Her phone rang several times that day and it was so unlike her 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vrszIMmIX
not to answer. When I checked who called, I grew a little worried.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqQ1YBLJpz
The day after, we all 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Rdd2VvEEa
decided to meet as BigBang and The Toxins, just to hang out. And 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCeGdsHIur
surprisingly, Sam wasn't up for it. So she stayed back at the hotel. 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQpxS8y8ih
Which for me, was so unlike her.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMUgEbdREj4
"Why do you think she's doing this?" G-Dragon asked.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnGFg9nDmlG
"It's because she doesn't want to get hurt," I replied.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25DdQluVCn
"What do you mean?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegddOq3ccY
I rolled my eyes. One 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWoiEwtagv
thing I didn't like, was explaining things to people. But this was 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZ3Z0icgcC
G-Dragon I was talking to, so, I ignored that for a minute.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9EMn8cwev
"Sam likes you, a lot," I840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsCDTlisXoR
said. "And she's one person who doesn't like to get too attached 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxQ3xUzu3Z
because she knows that if she does, she's likely to get hurt. And she 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyhK9xaTFcp
doesn't want that."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gYVMnPXbw
G-Dragon shrugged his shoulders, waiting for me to continue. "So?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS10icmVhhR
"We'll be leaving soon. 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9KPOrI6Uh
Well, soon after the music video is released. And trust me, she feels 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJRE60JgtIM
awful that we have to go. That's why she's practically ignoring everyone840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtATbh5f9XY
around her and being so distant."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhzG80hNq2H
"For a moment, I thought I might have done something wrong."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUwoGJ9RnA
"You haven't done 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsVmGtRiU2T
anything. That's just how Sam is. She thinks ignoring you till she 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfoCqTyzYbS
leaves looks like the best solution not to get hurt. But it isn't 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFQDNcprxV
working." I said that with a smirk.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5o3W3dVSvP
"Why do you say that?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuwDg0NcbeK
"I don't really know for840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbkOXThp6c
sure. She's been acting real funny lately. But I can tell she misses 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKTEpZsInz
BigBang, especially you. She just doesn't want to admit it."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMchrFe2QV
"Ya. The others are really worried about her too."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8zjWnhXe5
"Why don't you just talk840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOMRT2qSMBu
to her personally? In that way, you'll be able to open her up. Because 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1zN0NIrWxy
right now, she is so closed up like a bud that she isn't even talking to840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMcMhf9GNMQ
some of us either."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2pJfzxRwPj
"Wait, she isn't talking to you?" G-Dragon asked with an eyebrow raised.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwtqriuLbuq
"Not really. She just 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2UzCTtCpRC
isn't herself is all I can say. But I bet you talking to her face to 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5W95nCz6a
face will break that little state she's in."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZM0YwULiIy
"I have so much to tell her, I'm afraid I might upset her."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzf6zMl9Hug
"Don't tell me you're going to ask her to be your girlfriend?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkOpOT8Vvul
G-Dragon looked at me and I could tell he was blushing, even when he was trying to hide it by putting up a stoic face.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2oaPrVSVm3
"How do you know that?" he asked.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7m5EJBSmO
"Is that not obvious? I know that if you ask her to be your girlfriend, she will say no because of us leaving Korea."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡywdIYXrkWu
"True. And she was really strong on the fact that we couldn't be together."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh9MllYvLaV
"Ya, well, she said that to Daesung, and he understood and respected her wishes. I believe you also have to do the same."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ674sZuwZ2u
"I don't think I want to."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlku4ji04c4
"Trust me, GD. If you 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJmG99NNvu
really want to be on Sam's good side, you'll do it. Besides, isn't it 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbD86nazDMl
that if you love someone, you will let them go?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIviXOSLhH8
G-Dragon thought for a moment. "I guess you're right, but, I don't think I want to let her go."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKRfvaTgxB
"Well, I think you 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoRrr3Fr5Rk
should. Don't take this the wrong way," I said quickly when G-Dragon 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0dkNb1jzzP
gave me a certain look. "But, if you two were really meant to be 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0aWHNZHW9h
together, then destiny in one way or another will play it's part."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZKe73gbjK
"You think so?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzOVfLZGFyq
I smiled and nodded. "I 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7YSWU8QbI9
know so. I feel she and you are perfect for each other." I tapped my 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLB8jgchrKU
chin as I looked up at the ceiling. "But then again, there's Daesung, so840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZ8zmPlHqG
I can't really tell."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Cus5Gw5VM
"Are you serious?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQryqMkFqZ
"I'm joking," I laughed. "Well, I think it's obvious that she likes you."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdIio3AD74
"But she kissed Daesung last time."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXeRkDWj3ZK
"Are you really bringing that up now?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqbkBYbjYn
"Just because I like her so much doesn't mean that I can easily forget that. I don't really care anyway."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHMGhYWj3Du
I smiled when I realised840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAnJuV9Q65r
why he said that. He hadn't kissed Sam yet. I didn't want to taunt him 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSQXm7Gk8L
so I kept quiet. He was already suffering and I didn't want to make 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJgvRiqnXl
things worse. But still, I smiled in my heart, finding it so cute that 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8WnGzcoAZZ
he was dying just to kiss Sam. I was also dying inside, feeling the urge840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFvrx90UWB
to taunt him so bad.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo0mlYSExLU
"Well, I still think you should talk to her," I said. "Because I'm tired of the way Sam's been acting."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJI4fSdMdZl
"But I'm afraid she might not want to talk to me," said G-Dragon. "Should I go to see her instead?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbSR66noQB
"That will be so much better. Because calling her just to meet won't work."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4LaARIC71B
"Okay, let's go to the hotel right now."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhPIGux4HqO
"You want to go now?" I asked, looking a little surprised.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZrUrhDEs0
"Well, yes. What's wrong?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf1wnin0a66
"Oh, ummm...." I looked away so that I wouldn't have to look at G-Dragon in the face. "She went to meet up with Derrick today."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBNq1hmKlf
"What? Why? She went to meet him and not me?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvbCxZ0FYx0
"Stop acting jealous." I840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ZmZKDpu0H
turned to look at him, then looked away again. "That's why I didn't 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzy9vgBnVi1
want to tell you. She had to meet him since he is leaving for Paris 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFd81xxEsxI
today. Jehan was deported back to France to face trail and he had to 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQe2nQcZoHX
leave too. So she had to go and say goodbye."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nQD92937T
"Does she like him?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfiG25YzSBQ
I smiled and when I 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡchr0GIDjYd
turned to look at him, it disappeared. "She only likes him as a friend, 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHXcmd7HVl
don't worry about it. He's really good looking though."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8GBK5A7Mlu
"I'm glad he's leaving."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5sCbHDeMLj
"Why? You're scared that he and Sam might hook up and date? I doubt it. Not when Sam already likes you. So, I'm not worried."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXlDsALNLM
"I've to see her though. I've to give her something."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7rZLfqEQiP
"What is it?" Now I was curious.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡynnYsU6Uiw
"It's a present. I planned to give it to her two days ago, but I couldn't."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfppyBO4MLR
My phone soon started to ring in my purse and when I took it out, it was Sam.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8w7clj7GNk
"Sam's calling," I said as I looked at G-Dragon and quickly answered the call.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWwoosMKweP
"Hey, Sam," I said as I put the phone to my ear.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXnFfOQVsS
"Hey, I'm heading back to the hotel," said Sam. "Are you still around?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVeDvWJZlDt
"Ummm, no I'm not. Are you on your way back now?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhgc0PHJIGN
"Yes. I went to see Derrick off with Christine at the airport and we are on our way back right now."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShCq2TJ7TE
"Alright, then, you'll find me at the hotel."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQpANTb8D0
I quickly cut the call and stood up from the couch. G-Dragon was startled by my sudden quick action.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY61zDTvIrA
"GD, let's go," I said as I looked at him.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGyjwLe1DDS
"Where?" he asked.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsWMqHmPKu2
"To the hotel. We're 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD66BIozPLB
going to get there before Sam does. So quickly go and get her present. 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrGUIs6ndy6
And whatever it is, I don't want to miss a thing when you give it to 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7yCPKSyOGJ
her."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbexYCs2fL6
***840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNYPbLIlht
Sam's P.O.V:840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH7FcMUEOyq
"Do you think the colour840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJaRPZYEVY
green is going to match with these shoes?" Christine asked me as I sat 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Ca465oks2
next to her, showing me a pair of shoes on her phone.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8lc3QRRe3
"Mmm, they will," I said840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7elQJdGHe4
as I took a brief look at the shoes and turned the other way, looking 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgAQ2cqzqNn
out through the car window. "Just make sure it's army green."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTfpsZlYnS
"Okay," said Christine as she kept on looking at other different shoes to buy online. "I bet Zoey would love these shoes."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtUNP0P9Jd
"I know she will."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qbQ7URCJv
"Are you okay, Sam?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWg3wQuJFzG
"Ya, I am," I replied as I turned to look at her. "Just a little sad."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8zafFgiHb
"You've been like that for a while now. Anything on your mind?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDcgFwI9KXZ
I thought before I answered, "there is a lot going through my mind. Things that I know I can't change, even if I wanted to."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZdpHX3HYB
"Is it about GD?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3RzpLvjztK
"That and a whole lot more," I said as I gave Christine a small smile. "I'm really going to miss this place when we leave."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7IUPDd5fnF
"Is that why you're acting so distant with all of us?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIl49hGqlj
I raised an eyebrow and gave Christine a serious look. "I have?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeU80dxIQc1
"Pretty much, yes. Yesterday you didn't even want to hang out with us. And you've been ignoring GD's calls and everybody else."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj3YHZQ1GVS
She was right though. As840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bbnN4b2nY
much as I didn't want to admit it, all I was doing right now was to 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQIlUQSv0i
completely detach myself from BigBang and this place. I felt if I did, I840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUWF16m9hR
wouldn't get too attached and when its time to leave, I wouldn't feel 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Bd4Y7A2Lb
so bad.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9L437GdRfG
I was always like this. 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDb7gmGWcjk
Not trying to get too attached because it hurts when you finally have to840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2gLLgoJLf4
leave behind the people you care about the most. And I really grew 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKsh66yCiUK
attached to BigBang despite us being so different from one another.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmzCt3IXYmP
And now that I know we 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPTR5PXwrC
might be leaving soon, was killing me. I never knew I would get too 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRK0KbVZy4R
attached to this place. But with BigBang and the loving fans, they made 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRolFTPo24X
my stay here feel like home. And I bet the other Toxins felt that way 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1mYwuOiVtJ
too.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpbAzdIWZy3
"You're right, Christine," I said. "But I can't say that I'm ignoring people. Not in a bad way or anything."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDkfc6F5OtW
"You just want to detach yourself because you don't want to get hurt. We know you all too well, Sam."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV3VuO13kq9
I almost burst out laughing. "Ya, you do. I realise that the more I try to ignore them, the worse it is for me."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡun3QGqX9Zj
I looked at Christine who had been looking at me the whole time. "Well, it's about time you admitted it."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlGAy0Myt0T
I leaned back on my seat and looked out of the window staring at the streets of Seoul. I smiled to myself.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0fXjYoZrz8
"Maybe I should drop 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxHBPGWLLPz
this little act of mine and go with the flow. I mean, I'm leaving, but I840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzcrrc06AZf
would rather enjoy my last days here and create more memories, you 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg7UWqskvxl
know?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0HX6DUuB1N
"You've no idea how much840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCzCqN5IYO7
I wanted to hear you say that," said Christine as she held my shoulder.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5u7MPxTJFV
"Everyone has been so worried about you, they thought you would be 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6eQnZ40dUt
ignoring us forever."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0Ryvh0SWY
"Ha. Even I can't do 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKkVmmJyTP
that for that long. Trust me, these last few days I have been dying 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQWYJ8OyMhS
inside. And I realise how much I miss BigBang."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9bKkTxqYk
"And what about G-Dragon? Don't you miss him?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTgxFijS7uH
I blushed when Christine asked me that. And I felt a wave of guilt flood over me.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMtk2YsToL
"I miss him, a lot," I 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡToWYSOjIlr
found myself saying, as I thought of G-Dragon. "And I've been dodging 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzH3aBBztS6
his calls, lately. Only picking up when he calls too much."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtasvl9X6o
"You're so mean, Sam," 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEraruieCIf
said Christine, looking upset as she folded her arms. "You know he loves840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOqtmpAO5Pm
you and you're treating him like he's done something wrong."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7k1YzPr6nj
I blushed when Christine840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSEmet4JUr6
said the "L" word. I swore that I even saw the driver of the car look 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfC6Z4TsiOy
through the rear view mirror and smile at me.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWc5F4Ac0Jl
"Ya, I'm horrible!" I covered my face with my hands. "And he's probably been sick and worried about me."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVWXyIkdMB
"Well, obviously. You've to make up for it."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpEUytSGC0w
"I've to make up to a lot of people."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpJla4xTmq
"True."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vJm2QUG6r
"Well, when we get to the hotel, I'll try and see what I can do about it."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNGbS5nFxq
"Good," said Christine. "I'm glad to see that you're back to your old self."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡysOQCoSe3C
"Mmm, I just hope that the guys don't get mad at me after how I have been treating them lately."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaEiemvs2ps
"BigBang? No way. And if840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOqhtGCGSK3
it comes to GD, he will treat this like it was nothing but a phase. I 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaLeHz5qZHB
wouldn't be too worried if I were you."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXLUqlhEMlV
I smiled and didn't say a840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz65683mKFL
word. I knew he would never be mad at me no matter what I do. He's 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPTLH8bISeJ
proved that to me so many times before, especially when we never settled840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8yg0M2mFG
our differences during the first few weeks.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMNgusWo53Q
We arrived at the hotel and Christine and I got out of the car.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5mCnJiEFtX
"So, are you going to call GD and talk?" Christine asked as we walked into the lobby together.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdafY1jKEcs
"I have to, don't I? 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxkadbmYwgh
Besides, Zoey isn't around, the boys left with Seungri and Daesung to 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡThvhU6sX2O
attend a video game convention. And Lee and Collins are busy as usual. 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡii1T12M4jw
So this might be the perfect time to call him and talk."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEk2sIJt4zl
"Will you tell him to come here?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4uemWdgw7m
"Ya. I know I should be making the effort to see him, but I would rather he comes here. In fact, let me call him right now."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Ht87PeKHm
As we headed towards the840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrNVoWllboI
elevator, I took my phone out of my purse and when Christine and I got 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMeD5i83YkF
in the elevator, I had already dialled his number and had my phone to my840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKpMsFxJiY2
ear.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡguMhIWnYOK
His phone was ringing when I pressed the button to our floor and the elevator doors quickly closed in front of us.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl81XhiIJvj
When he finally picked up, he sounded surprised.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM3WN8Q4UqB
"Sam?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkqc3BDlASK
My mouth stayed opened. I840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0H4pPBqq4
didn't know what to say next. How could I tell him I needed him here at840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5O9uEObYwx
the hotel right now? After all that's happened these past two days, I 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXz136fLRuS
felt a little guilty calling him.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh21B8WzOxQ
"Sam, are you there?" G-Dragon asked.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZul3pSeifa
"Hi, Ji Yong," I said, clearing my throat. "Ummm, are you busy today?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPIWZg5jvKI
I looked at Christine who was looking at me.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kyDAquIky
"No, I'm quite free today," G-Dragon replied. "What is it? Do you want us to meet?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPuNF0HvAX9
For a moment, I was ready to say, "no, I was just asking." But I went on to say, "yes."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vBQ0wndIG
There was silence at the end of the line and I grew worried. What if he said he didn't want to see me?840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ4eIakCrAQ
The doors to the 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbl8bR4skUv
elevator stood open and standing right there in the hall was G-Dragon 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0oWJIcxxNi
with his phone to his ear. My heart raced when I saw him and I felt some840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRipic0H1Eu
sense of relief. Christine who stood beside me gasped when she saw him 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYCbK55fMz
waiting for us in the hall. I quickly cut the call and put my phone 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwmh2cQrDVC
away.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlk21Apu5VT
"You're here?" Christine asked him instead of me.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ49ael6RSgz
"I had to come," said G-Dragon, his eyes had never left mine as he put his phone away. "She and I need to talk."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9VsXhsfwXN
Christine stepped out of the elevator and I quickly followed before the doors could close.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1rh7beyui
Zoey appeared from the 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3Fezaucl1
lounge and I knew right there that G-Dragon was here because she told 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNdDFMEv09
him to come. She gave me a smile when I looked at her, and that 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3nRHtDPIQT
confirmed everything.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpLPRH6fJig
"Hey," said Zoey, giving840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc2L4Ri7y3Y
me a small wave. "You two need to talk so I figured that G-Dragon 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubTZsFl8Rr
should come here. Hope you aren't mad."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXzGmKB7fS6
"No," I quickly shook my840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDUFDBSeHz8
head nervously. "No, no. It's fine. I was also planning on meeting up 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDQqauFiFG
with him, so, its fine." I scratched the back of my head.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtW4dS4w6YI
"Ummm," Christine went 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZEQIb2ByCJ
to looking at me and then at G-Dragon, looking confused yet amused by 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8BzJ9UGU1a
all this and wondering what to do next. "I will....I mean, we, Zoey and 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0zLRlZ91H
I, will be in the room if you need us."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO33hsKs4tT
Christine and Zoey soon 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVN2vnXYxLj
headed for the rooms. I quickly went to the lounge, without taking a 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0bw4U7rCUe
look at G-Dragon. I could hear G-Dragon coming right behind me and when I840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUbSehVy9i
stopped to stand in the middle of the room, I took a deep breath, 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1tv2RyWRa4
trying to calm myself down.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJO9ceRiaFT
"I'm glad, you wanted to talk," said G-Dragon. "Because there is so much I need to....."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLOqeSw9WzU
I quickly cut him short 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyeg8Jc9xQ0
when I turned around and the next thing I knew, I had my arms wrapped 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJ1lEotenc
around him in a hug. I can't really tell how all of that happened. It 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9KSW8SEtT
felt like an immediate impulse.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYcwgKu2eEn
"I missed you too," said G-Dragon as he also wrapped his arms around me.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq093j1vWMQ
It felt like we had 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLe1KvgBS0
stayed like that in each other's arm for a while. I wanted to say like 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJ5aTCOtNu
this forever, but I knew all that was too good to be true. But I knew I 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWe3yeFANt
was never going to regret doing it now because I never know when we will840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHdlIczW4C
ever do so again.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZd6x9T3Toy
"I'm sorry," I said as I pulled away from him and looked at him.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtcO3R9sZ9V
"You have a lot of 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEbMSbvu1oA
explaining to do, my little kitty," said G-Dragon as he held my chin. He840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDV4ryoTJhU
was smiling at me and my heart was beating so fast and I was blushing 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0LvDazlGGa
like crazy.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmUFmDNUea
"I know, I'm sorry. It's just that, I've been such a jerk ignoring you like that. It's that I didn't want to get...."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG3ZZgejB4E
"...hurt." G-Dragon finished the sentence before I could. "Zoey told me."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkPR54jDbr
"I'm surprised that she brought you here." I had my eyebrow raised.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoCm4aHEl3x
"Well, she noticed that you were a bit off these past two days. I was a little surprised myself when she came to see me."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0rP5H1ShS
I smiled. "I'm glad you came. And I'm really sorry for my awful behaviour. I should apologise to the others too."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPI0fPNqeJb
"I'm not mad at you and you don't need to apologise for anything, Sam. I completely understand you."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡclxP9iiUM9
I looked down at my feet840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjug4nmYTIc
and moved them here and there. I was feeling embarrassed. "You were 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwHMFcgLxg
never mad at me, weren't you?" I asked.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8LPrssBON
"No. For some reason I can never stay mad at you for anything."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43dDeqSz4B
"I'm guessing we have a lot to talk about. Why don't we sit down?" I was still looking down at the floor.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqDZs2K4B34
"Sure."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa2h68wohLi
We went to sit on the 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpZyQplVQJ
couch, facing each other. I tucked a strand of my hair behind my ear, 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2r1ly0qZgx
wondering where to start. We sat in silence, not saying a word for a 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRkaauwRpqI
while.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡayV26AzMnM
"Aren't you going to say anything?" G-Dragon asked.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSrjpI4xRr
"What's left to say?" I asked as I looked at him and shrugged my shoulders. "I can keep apologising if you want me to."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqkhZ5EQGIw
"I want to know what's on your mind."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAzzsoffFfq
"I thought Zoey already told you."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBdWSlynSJ
"I want to hear your version."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHFW1OtHlFu
I raised an eyebrow. 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLOBce4yrp
There were some things I didn't like to explain to people, but G-Dragon 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsL0egtWCE
deserved to know what was in my mind at the moment and how I felt.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3yh8uTT7k
"I'm scared." I looked 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZKS9zc6NVg
down at my fingers on my lap. "I'm scared of losing and leaving all this840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSWgOPnrZ0b
behind. Since I came here, I only thought, I would come here, do the 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxtDvutTsA
collaboration with you guys and leave. But a lot more happened. Quite 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0CzvCpH5A
out of the ordinary, actually. First off, you and I had some unsettling 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyoLGNdqEB
differences."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlEKwWNWruK
G-Dragon chuckled. "Don't remind me," he said.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1QJRaoNrB9
"Then came Zoey and her issue with Jehan. Which, thank God, was all sorted out."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7yY5D2c6wc
"And it was all thanks to you," said G-Dragon as I looked up at him and he smiled.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKAnzcHOKQe
"And after all that, 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjzXPaFEjRW
we'll be leaving soon after the music video is released. I know it will 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvCxgz6IVz
take a while, but each day that passes by, I feel we might just leave 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYsqmU7toee
tomorrow. That's why I've been avoiding you guys so much. Because, I'm 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdeZDumHgh
trying to detach myself from all that's happened and the people around 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyPE8kbv3yv
me. But that's only making me feel even more miserable."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9B68gnU4L
"I understand you, Sam. 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAZ6dolJC5
Leaving people you care about behind hurts. But with all the memories we840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxkQXkq9Sbs
have of each other, I don't think you'll ever feel we're apart."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMHoLbldfWT
"You're right. I figured that on my way back. And I think it's time I just enjoy my last days here."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg7PxCJfQKI
"I'm glad," said G-Dragon as he came a little closer. "There is also something you and I should talk about."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnipN6qHyC1
I gave him a questioning look. "What else is there to talk about apart from my unusual behaviour?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUtK2EqGlsO
"You and me."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsO8wbFLmME
My eyes grew wide and my sudden surprise soon turned to sudden frustration.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSFJE6zchzm
"Please, not that!" I shook my head, feeling uncomfortable. "I don't want to talk about it."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSkArfjuCex
For whatever reason, G-Dragon didn't take my reaction seriously and just laughed. I turned to look at him and I was startled.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TErwRzXmQ
"Now I see why you've been specifically avoiding me," said G-Dragon. "It's because of us, isn't it?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjo0fHePuE2
I sighed as I gave in. 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdEbVW9z8BG
"True. It hurts to know that you and I can never be....you know." I 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCzAsK9Cc9
hesitated to say the word. But I carried on anyway. "I'm still going to 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ozcivw7D0
stand my ground on this one. And I'm just hoping you won't be stubborn 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡftrdpS5DWe
enough to disagree with me like you have always done."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1cmM9c30cI
"I completely agree with you, Sam."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXIHakxwA6
"Huh?" I was confused. "Did you just say you agree with me?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0GCvG4eqIn
"You heard right. I know I've disagreed with you on that part, but I'm finally going to give in and let all of this slide."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjISWfVJpjp
Out of nowhere, a smile 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIrXjk3chEK
appeared on my face and my heart felt overjoyed. But there was still 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbchBUOwvBw
that sinking feeling in me. And I knew it was because of the fact that 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPAap1Cx23
he and I had finally agreed to be friends and nothing else.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsCswLYM7xl
But maybe it was best for things to be this way. We were never meant to be from a long shot.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUfNBMOXir
"Hearing you say that feels like a surprise," I said.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5Lah9NIXl
"I also can't believe 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJUy3LxwniV
that I'm saying this either. But, if fate wants us to be together, then 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHBhEANLZAl
it will play its part, wouldn't it?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0aDcVdDVNg
I slowly nodded my head. "You're right. Zoey convinced you to all this, didn't she?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRgLfH8lQn
G-Dragon raised an eyebrow. "How do you know that?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOPye5JRa7O
I smirked. "I could tell when my best friend is trying to help out. That's another reason she came to see you, I bet."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7eiZ8k7O3
"Looks you're really good at figuring things out. And I never knew Zoey could give such great advice."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Yi0dibGyI
"She's a ninety percent of crazy and a ten percent of sensible. That shows she rarely gives good advice to anyone."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UrdOizqf0
"Hey! I heard that!" came Zoey's voice coming from the room.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6ETURcYxt
I looked up at the ceiling and gave a little laugh. "Making fun of Zoey never gets old."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCiho0dUAKs
"Ya, but she isn't that bad either," said G-Dragon.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgHrCoXS1CM
"Awww! Thanks, Ji Yong!" came Zoey again.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbggJA5AxrM
"Can you please you step away from that door? We're having a conversation here," I called out to her.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1hcMupMTa
"Fine! That's why you're no fun!"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5DEvHcz7w
"Yet, I wonder she stuck with me in the first place," I muttered, playfully rolling my eyes.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GRUw5fRYu
"Oh, Sam," said G-Dragon. "Do you remember I had something for you? I was planning to give it to you two days ago."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaudiBHNacA
"Oh, ya, I remember. Do you have it here with you?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDiAcOEBcOU
G-Dragon had his hand 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9hFXE5xaoY
behind him and he soon brought out a black fancy looking jewellery box. I840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFxxFhfydbU
could tell there was a necklace in there. But what kind sent me 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVGMumPXjt
thinking.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPoMozk7XZN
"You got me a necklace?" I asked as I looked up at him.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrguUTHsr3
"Yes. I bought it the 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPJ08gqRFu
time I went to Paris with Zoey and the others. Zoey was planning to give840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk73f6U6pQz
it you, but I took it from her and wanted to give it to you later on."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLo5AdXJeiJ
"Ha! I knew you got that necklace, GD! How could you!" came Zoey's voice for the room.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZGiFu7thb
"Quiet down!" came Christine's voice. "You're ruining everything!"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo08fVxxwlH
"Sorry! Carry on! Pretend I never said all that!"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1MiOXBQki
"Anyway," said G-Dragon, trying to put all that Zoey had said behind him, "it's yours."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ842RkBP19I
I took the box from him 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9DixbaV3uA
and when I opened it, what I found inside wasn't what a could call a 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4wMMjFzyt
necklace. It was a pendant. A silver pendant with a music note studded 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYezU0i9aAH
with real tiny diamonds.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLoMmA4pc78
I was stunned at first as I looked at the beauty of the pendant. I took the small music note in my fingers and looked at it.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJLD67MphN
"Wow, it's so pretty," I840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhartWI20w
said, looking at it with so much awe and wonder. "I've always wanted to840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOs2pxEj20e
get this kind of a pendant. It's just never crossed my mind to buy one 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKcpvTCDF9o
on my own. I'm always so forgetful of the little things I truly want."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5qeJF19M8Z
"Just so you know, Sam, I picked that for you!" came Zoey.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOdxg6mo9f
"Be honest, Zoey!" G-Dragon called out to her.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbGktTBvKuy
Zoey sighed loudly. "Fine. Lover boy picked it for you and I agreed because you've always wanted one of those."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSe7a274J1
"Well, I've to say, you really guessed right on one of the things I really wanted," I said as I looked at G-Dragon.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsuHrP1agSm
"I had a strong feeling you would like it," said G-Dragon. "I'm glad I was right."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡczkPVL4U9J
"Will you help me put it on?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlYt4Mb7c3
Christine and Zoey squealed and giggled with glee. I for one, was very annoyed.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGxSKsRlzI
"Don't mind them," said G-Dragon as he smiled. "Let me."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfE3nulZjY
He took the pendant and I840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxl7d01XMSc
turned to face the other way, my back facing him. I lifted my hair off 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJKNnIT5FJP
my back and the pendant soon came around and landed on my chest. 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfWd9PDWHbv
G-Dragon fixed the silver string behind my neck and when he was done, I 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡACQ7CpMQdK
put my hair back down.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡANWDy9MLk6
"Thank you so much," I said as I faced him again. "It's really lovely."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDiOj4XAaDF
"I know, it's gorgeous,"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYiIa6UJU9t
he said as he took the music note hanging on the silver neckline and 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeLTITrK8aS
looked at it. "Music has always been your driving passion, Sam. That's 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrjbLuEAaEF
why I got it for you. And with this, I hope you will always remember me 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡerMsBY86cP
like a musical melody that you can never get tired of listening to and 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPQ8uLIluh
you will listen to it forever. Like a symphony."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYeQkeheBcV
"You will always be my symphony, GD," I said as I held his cheek and then, the unthinkable happened.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDYYOQN6qp
I brought my lips close 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDcUa8yOwu1
to his and I kissed him. He immediately responded and opened his mouth 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbASjTWGmw
to take me in. I had to admit, the kiss sent me to a whole new world and840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9ZpH1iwZH
there was this driving passion that I never wanted to ever be 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCHxROpnO8
extinguished. My heart beat so fast and my insides tingled by the sudden840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUoc8oIMtc1
rush of ecstacy. G-Dragon had pulled me closer to him and I wrapped my 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbmK793GxS
arms around his neck not willingly to let go.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2eFtfyF6OU
We broke away from each other and I felt starry-eyed by all of this. And I blushed like hell. Did I really do that?840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGcikj43j7Q
"Wow," said G-Dragon as 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfwp5h5qxY
he looked at me in the eyes and even he himself couldn't believe what 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOu0sXvQ8Vp
had happened. "Did you really just kiss me?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDWa0sDCc52
"I don't know." I was confused and I soon felt so embarrassed. "Did I?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTuwoTPohZ2
"You did. And I loved it."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMs7TFwYjjH
"Don't say that," I said840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxS6Zhr6D2C
as I moved away from him and pulled my hair back from my face. My face 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDI4AX00JC
was as hot as ever and I felt like splashing water all over myself.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6KnGCo80xs
"I'm being really honest840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡniXqtDkMAk
right now. That was so magical, Sam." He moved closer and whispered in 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Ln5I1k43O
my ear. "And I would do it all over again."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74gJjOqyjQ
His voice gave me 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVXAdVZNNou
butterflies in my tummy and I felt that tingling feeling rush through me840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNDTpfTE7x
all over again. I looked at him and by surprise, he wrapped his arms 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZOgMBF42y
around me and kissed me. And now, I realised I wanted this more than 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPTsenoMEYL
ever. Him being so close to me. I never wanted to let all of this go.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡapGyj0FaDA
After we broke away from840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8VaQExkS1C
each other, I didn't feel that much embarrassed as I did before. If 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5JMz4M1hS
anything, I was still blushing but this time, I felt a certain glow from840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZKf2U3pnRy
my cheeks.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVXmmYSXLH
"I never knew you're such a good kisser," said G-Dragon as he bit his lower lip.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGqrv9M0j1
I was staring at his 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3eeQCET3DQ
lips and I wanted him to kiss me again so bad. But this time, I smiled. I840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ao0fOuqFy
knew he was enticing me to kiss him again, not this time.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjsJ50a98dx
"Don't push it," I said as I finally stood up from the couch. "This is going to be the last we will ever do this."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqoQVMB5uTO
G-Dragon also got up and840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSf1UXKwRF6
from behind, he wrapped his arms around me. Gosh! He was killing me 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0N2u41dd7B
inside and he knew it. I couldn't stand it when he was so close to me.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvGooGB5Hh
"Do we really have to?" 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0bRDKnwfiK
he asked as he whispered in my ear. Again, that tingling feeling. It was840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXYpXYTbps
driving me insane. "Because I loved it so much."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKFivzjfiFf
"We agreed to be friends and I'm planning to keep it that way."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfiPpkHenUk
"Okay, fine," he said as he dropped his arms around me and I turned to face him. "The queen has spoken."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ73kxD16H1p
"Don't mock me," I warned with a smile.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtTwXq9kDUZ
"You know it's going to be hard to forget what just happened."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ayKRCtCJn
"I know. But in one way or another we have to."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsS1h9dBapG
"I'll always love you, Sam."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6T2Po5e5dS
The whole world seems to840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAiDKLmtJVU
pause when he said those words. I tried to speak but I couldn't make 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAnrodb96DA
the effort of opening my mouth. Why did he say that? Right now, I was 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsjmDT7NSRy
stunned.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpM350BSnaY
If his plan was to make 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8jvG5brA6
me look like a lifeless statue, it pretty much worked. All he did was 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEstZ9pLNNL
give me that devious smile of his and I just stood there until Christine840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡet8KORWyPp
and Zoey finally showed up.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSoMJSV5Z3
"Hey, you two are too quiet," said Zoey, then she looked worried when she stared at me. "Oh, no."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCah9LjVeHP
"Dang, GD. Don't tell me you used the 'L' word on her," said Christine. She winced.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hprDFb64F
"I did," he said confidently.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3OjujRih8K
"Sam, Sam, if you hear me, just breathe," said Zoey.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1TIXOnw8G
"I can hear you loud and clear," I said. "I don't go deaf when I'm stunned, you know?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ77gbBoceD3
"A lot of things happen when you get stunned. In high school, there was a time you cried out of the blue."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvmoQ4TMec
"Don't remind me," I 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡanX2AEDQtE
said as I rubbed my head. I suddenly had a huge headache. "That was a 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7il4ZKEIz
long time ago and I was pretty emotional that day."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡurjJvOjxRo
"If I knew you'll get like this, I wasn't going to say that," said G-Dragon.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdqO7nwGDk
"I should have given you a heads up," said Zoey.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXR4HXWhns0
"No, it's fine. I'm also sorry. I should have said something in return," I said.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwCMmOaFmAV
"No need," he said. "I know you also feel the same way. It's just hard for you to realise it."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqavOY5twZ4
Before I could say 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9EUg6AxTF
anything, Christine immediately interrupted by saying, "with all of that840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3skOfh5qvA
lovey dovey nonsense aside, Mike called and asked if we could all join 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9RcjhU7BSy
him and the others for lunch. Are you two up for it?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEuhpQCXHug
"Ya, sure," said G-Dragon. "Are you okay with it, Sam?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3IyLZEydQ
"Yes, I am," I said. Finally, something to keep me distracted.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjOnxzxmMTg
"Let's go then," said Zoey. "I'm starving."840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIbFRvarX1W
"Tell me about it," I said as I went over to the couch to get my purse.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWW65Zuye7s
"That's such a pretty pendant," said Christine as she looked at my pendant as the four of us made our way to the elevator.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9LhYZrtseu
"Thanks," I said.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkl6kwFJrQ
"May I ask something?" Zoey asked me as she pressed the button for the elevator lift and the doors flew wide open.840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ABxg6jtMz
"What is it?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaIhH3PbL3Z
We all went in the elevator and Zoey asked, "for G-Dragon to finally say the 'L' word, you two kissed, right?"840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlEHhqS6jIJ
I never said a word as I840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLU3JbWym6r
stood still and the doors to the elevator started to close before us. 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa8s9LxwoOI
G-Dragon smiled, Christine silently giggled and I was praying for this 840Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzaVP4424TU
day to end.
