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

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.
