Zoey's P.O.V:
902Please respect copyright.PENANAYPaHf07cot
"Are you sure Sam will like it if you get her a gift?" I asked as I looked at G-Dragon.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAICMsVXf9D9
"Of course she will," he answered with a smile on his face, his eyes fixed on the road as he drove. "You know, she hasn't fully forgiven me yet."
902Please respect copyright.PENANApFe0Vjc5iS
I raised an eyebrow. "She hasn't?"
902Please respect copyright.PENANAwHVfs16MBf
"Nope."
902Please respect copyright.PENANANGCpHvbeYR
I groaned as I stared up at the ceiling of the car. Sam could be really difficult sometimes.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAUCqbPpoQwk
"I thought she meant it when she told me she forgave you," I said.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAhKvK11lGy1
"She really didn't. She gave me one weird explanation and I knew she didn't mean it."
902Please respect copyright.PENANATfGjUf7Bm1
I sulked. "Sam is one big fat liar."
902Please respect copyright.PENANA9t4Bj7P5So
"A 'pretty' big fat liar," G-Dragon emphasised. "You got to admit, she's really good at it."
902Please respect copyright.PENANAxm68M2qIS8
"One of her many talents." I smiled at him but it soon fell away.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAFuZV0aGlvC
"So, what can I get her?"
902Please respect copyright.PENANAMTCC3vGc6u
"I don't think getting her a gift will be enough for her to forgive you."
902Please respect copyright.PENANA8xjkh3Ye99
"What do you mean? I thought ladies love gifts."
902Please respect copyright.PENANATbsswCU5dQ
I shrugged my shoulders. "You're right on that part. But one thing you should know about Sam is that she's different. She's practically those girls people refer to as a 'rare species.'"
902Please respect copyright.PENANATX3rH6qEYt
G-Dragon burst out laughing and when he turned to look at me, he stopped. I wasn't laughing and I definitely wasn't joking.
902Please respect copyright.PENANABpuMP46GEp
"Oh, you're serious," G-Dragon blushed as he fixed his eyes back on the road.
902Please respect copyright.PENANANyDhNI4Djs
"When I mean that, I mean she's special," I said with a smile. "Someone like her needs something extraordinary. So if you're buying her a gift, then it should be something that will mean something to her forever. Almost like that pendant."
902Please respect copyright.PENANAh2QcZIOfBx
"So what do you think I should get her?"
902Please respect copyright.PENANAymalf82vwe
"Mmmm, I don't know," I said as I thought for a bit. "That's why I think instead of buying her something, you should do something for her instead."
902Please respect copyright.PENANA8MGeLME9vQ
"Don't you think you should've told me that earlier?"
902Please respect copyright.PENANACK65L2JQhO
"I thought we were going shopping together, not getting Sam a gift."
902Please respect copyright.PENANAvx9Qol3wlm
I could see him roll his eyes. "Sorry. I thought you got the catch that we were going for Sam's sake."
902Please respect copyright.PENANADmW7sP7ASZ
"Sam's sake or yours?"
902Please respect copyright.PENANAlFEKiiwCVi
G-Dragon raised the corner of his lip into a smile. "Fine, my sake."
902Please respect copyright.PENANAdGYlfgvJCy
"Don't worry. You brought the right person for this. We'll find Sam something and she will totally forgive you. But just in case she doesn't, you better do something memorable for her."
902Please respect copyright.PENANAEe2BQ9lhwW
G-Dragon groaned. "Why is Sam so difficult? I mean, she may seem ordinary, but she's different."
902Please respect copyright.PENANAaYV1oXTnZx
"That's why she's special," I smirked. "She can make any guy break into a sweat just to impress her and she doesn't have to lift a finger. Just like you."
902Please respect copyright.PENANA1u4agVrqBW
"Are you making fun of me?" G-Dragon didn't turn to look at me when he asked.
902Please respect copyright.PENANALgRsSr966B
"Maybe." I folded my arms with a smile and went on to look in front of me.
902Please respect copyright.PENANA0F4AqHrLOy
We soon found ourselves at Myeong-dong. I remember coming to this place for the first time after landing here in Korea. I think this was the best place to start looking for the perfect gift. I had to think of something real quick or else G-Dragon might just lose it. Though he did seem calm on the face, in the inside, I could tell he was losing it.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAWyEJfzmYfU
As we got out of his car and looked over at the Myeong-dong shopping centre across the road, he asked:
902Please respect copyright.PENANAlFvOx8gKfD
"Have you thought of what we can buy for her?"
902Please respect copyright.PENANAxSPkawVEJE
The two of us quickly crossed the road when it was clear. We were clearly jaywalking even when there were no cars around. We got to the other side safely. "Not yet," I answered.
902Please respect copyright.PENANASTlFEYASOD
"I thought you already figured it out."
902Please respect copyright.PENANAzKlJu6bV9Z
"Well, sorry. I'm not actually sidekick to know what Sam wants," I complained as the two of us walked towards the multi-storey building. "Trust me, even buying her a birthday gift is hard on my part."
902Please respect copyright.PENANASlhT8LgWKM
"You're her best friend."
902Please respect copyright.PENANAxYDEfeJ2GU
"Ya, but that doesn't mean she tells me what she wants like any other best friend would do." We soon walked through the wide open doors of the building finding ourselves in the lobby. "Sam isn't an open book where you can see everything. She's one where you've to read in between the lines to fully understand her."
902Please respect copyright.PENANAeKNjuQpFVP
"You think I don't know that?"
902Please respect copyright.PENANAUw3F7ui8aH
"Of course you do," I said sarcastically. "And I think I know just what to get her."
902Please respect copyright.PENANA9KUmwxKDH6
"What?"
902Please respect copyright.PENANAzw2qbbOQsR
"Do you have any antique shop around here?"
902Please respect copyright.PENANAuFKYwEMD5S
G-Dragon and I soon went up the escalator. And he gave me a surprised look.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAkZPqXnJqYT
"Why would you want to go to an antique shop?"
902Please respect copyright.PENANAwIwTrQYFPQ
"If you want the perfect gift for Sam then an antique shop is the best place to start looking."
902Please respect copyright.PENANAGGcO2Qz4vR
G-Dragon raised an eyebrow at me and I didn't say a word till we got to the top. We looked at each other as we got off the escalator and I could tell G-Dragon was contemplating over what I had just said.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAGgygnuqlZn
"Are you sure we'll find a perfect gift for her there?"
902Please respect copyright.PENANAxmaiYonjJf
"We've to try," I answered as I shrugged my shoulders. "Sam really likes things that are old, beautiful and has a special meaning."
902Please respect copyright.PENANA52R0vHHsBD
"You think so?"
902Please respect copyright.PENANANvSEqSzq0a
"I know so. Now, can we go? Because you and I are capturing a lot of attention at the moment."
902Please respect copyright.PENANA2xlqxutkLd
G-Dragon and I looked around and we noticed people looking our way. Some even had their phones out to take pictures.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAuTSjMV05Xf
"Come on, I know just the place," he said as he started to walk away and I followed.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAZ8ZVePUzyp
As we passed by some stores, I couldn't help but look at things on display. As we were passing the Gucci store, I saw a fancy looking outfit on a mannequin. The mannequin wore a fancy black leather jacket, a fancy black vest, a tight black and gold stripe fitting skirt with black fancy high heeled shoes. The mannequin even held a black and gold fancy Gucci handbag. The gold metal Gucci logo on the bag gleamed brightly under the lights. I couldn't stop looking at the outfit. I was in love.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAPKExh1uBB3
"GD, look," I said as I held his arm and dragging him back, still looking at the mannequin on display.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAsdhYbvlkfT
"What is it?" he asked.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAJrSRbs865u
"Have you seen that outfit?" I pointed at the display window.
902Please respect copyright.PENANANhhFY4OkXB
"Don't tell me you plan on buying that for Sam?" G-Dragon looked at me with an eyebrow raised.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAv9bAguYNNX
"No, it's for me, silly. Come on."
902Please respect copyright.PENANAd6yOXrQx1z
I dragged him with me to the Gucci store and fifteen minutes later, I was walking out with a smile on my face and two shopping bags with the outfit in one and the Gucci handbag in another.
902Please respect copyright.PENANA7N19RqgEQk
"For a moment, I thought you were helping me out with buying Sam a gift, not getting one yourself," said G-Dragon as he followed behind me.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAxIZ4BfUYph
"Well, we did say we were coming here to shop, didn't we?" I asked as I gave him a smile.
902Please respect copyright.PENANARawrqaUTqS
"Okay, can we go now?"
902Please respect copyright.PENANAdQ78n8RnLe
"Sure. Lead the way. Aww, I can't wait to show the girls what I just bought." I giggled as I looked in the shopping bag. "They would be so jealous."
902Please respect copyright.PENANAiWO4Ckgml9
"Whatever," G-Dragon muttered to himself as he led the way and I happily followed behind him.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAhodQy8IAxz
We were soon approaching the antique store when something else again caught my eye.
902Please respect copyright.PENANA7qRE2sKEj9
A few stores before the antique one was a store that had something behind the display window that made my mouth drop.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAQQGA4XyllS
There were cardboard images of EXO. "The EXO." All nine of them. I couldn't help but look at each one of their faces. They looked so cool and so cute for cardboard images. Sometimes being a fangirl can be one heck of a serious problem because I couldn't take my eyes off of them.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAfvapy4bLNA
"Zoey?" came G-Dragon's voice as he waved his hand close to my face.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAG2cx6Pg6S0
"Huh?" I turned to look at him.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAqUUcw05Zgz
"Don't tell me you are fangirling over EXO?"
902Please respect copyright.PENANAZH1tU14351
"Is that a crime?" I asked, with a smile. I bet it was a stupid one. But I didn't care as I went back to looking at the cardboard images. "Looks like they will be having a concert soon." I went to looking at the cardboard announcement right next to the EXO images. It was written in Korean but there was a translation right after it.
902Please respect copyright.PENANADqgtZMfObK
"Zoey, focus!" He snapped his fingers in front of my face. "We came here for something, not EXO."
902Please respect copyright.PENANAgLPo8Uw67y
"Okay, but, I want to go to their concert," I said as I looked at G-Dragon with a whining tune in my voice.
902Please respect copyright.PENANA2Uue75QNrT
He shrugged his shoulders and it could clearly show on his face that he was really annoyed. "So?" he asked.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAPFprLqus5T
"Is it possible for me to get a ticket?"
902Please respect copyright.PENANAWRtXOa8GR4
"Have you clearly forgotten what we came here for?"
902Please respect copyright.PENANAx2NQSLPQWv
I looked at him as I tried to remember but my mind was completely filled with images of EXO. That was strange. What were we here for again?
902Please respect copyright.PENANA2uKeJlTcKW
"Zoey!"
902Please respect copyright.PENANAVmR8ufETmP
I almost jumped in the air with fright and almost dropping the bags in my hands. I realised I was still right where I stood facing G-Dragon. He folded his arms.
902Please respect copyright.PENANASdbk2ZG9a1
"You're daydreaming," he said.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAjp7nM2RRgQ
"No, I wasn't." I blushed as I shook my head.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAZ6GwFJvYCn
"You're dreamy eyed and lost in the clouds. You're thinking of EXO, aren't you?"
902Please respect copyright.PENANAagDUGBj3qV
"No." I lied again.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAziOL1B0RqF
"Really? Then why are we here?"
902Please respect copyright.PENANAtQmIh2O7DF
"Ummmm." I scratched my head, closed my eyes and started to stump my foot hard on the floor. People would have thought of me as a human with a dog attitude. I stopped what I was doing as my eyes flew open.
902Please respect copyright.PENANArzoJemI0Zi
"We came here to find Sam a gift," I said proudly, snapping my fingers.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAUfecToII52
G-Dragon looked at me and he looked at his cool fancy Daniel Klein wristwatch saying, "you just took four minutes to answer that question."
902Please respect copyright.PENANAqdTmA3itke
I felt my eyes could pop out of their sockets any moment. "For real?"
902Please respect copyright.PENANAuj3vgGbwYc
"I asked you the same question two times and you took four minutes to answer."
902Please respect copyright.PENANAGdWgjHQ3Fm
"Oh." I felt really embarrassed as I scratched my head. "Looks like I was clearly daydreaming."
902Please respect copyright.PENANACPEzZ8XHYV
"Can we think about this later and go get Sam a gift first?"
902Please respect copyright.PENANAk50TeRSeT8
"Oh, okay," I said with a sigh as I looked at the cardboard images. "There will be time for that next time."
902Please respect copyright.PENANALGY5DAM9rh
I noticed the words below the cardboard images which said, "We Are One. We Are EXO." I ended up smiling to myself.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAC5wRYClRBL
"Come on, let's go," said G-Dragon as he started off.
902Please respect copyright.PENANArtaX57mATT
I was about to follow G-Dragon when I noticed something out of the corner of my eye. I noticed a reflection of someone on the display window where the EXO cardboard images stood. I stopped and looked at the window, but I didn't see anyone unusual. All I saw were people's reflection walking behind me and they all looked to be minding their own business.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAcoP3qr7bp1
I shrugged my shoulders brushing off what I might have seen and I quickly caught up with G-Dragon who was already at the antique shop and staring at things on display.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAaxSeFfcA7C
"Are you sure we can find something in here?" G-Dragon asked when I stood right beside him.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAqTogmG6200
"We've to go inside to check, don't we?" I suggested.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAzxn6HyGXfZ
As I turned to start heading into the store, I hadn't noticed that someone was standing right beside me, also looking at the items through the display window. He had a pair of expensive shades on and for some reason, I couldn't help but look at him. Must be his hair that was dyed in a striking red colour.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAqMaMyNL7v7
"I noticed that you have been looking at me for a while," said the guy still looking at the display window.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAZPzB3sSVga
"Huh?" I was a little confused. "But I just started staring at you now."
902Please respect copyright.PENANA4OdDBzS9dE
He turned to look at me and removed his shades. My jaw suddenly dropped.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAN9x9pDwZnU
"I noticed you were looking at the EXO cardboard images," said Chanyeol with a gorgeous smile. "Thats what I meant."
902Please respect copyright.PENANAw496XD2aLW
"I...I....I," I stammered as I tried to say something straight. But I couldn't. I felt like I was going to have a heart attack.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAj4pmTxcbIb
"You're Zoey, right?" he asked. "I was pretty sure it was you but I had to be close to look at you and confirm it."
902Please respect copyright.PENANA9zfoklFg0w
"You....me.....I.....you're....you're....," I gulped as I pointed a finger at him.
My eyes bulged. "EXO."
902Please respect copyright.PENANA36B3Dbh90y
"Ya, and you're Zoey from The Toxins."
902Please respect copyright.PENANAz3EPo1hDB7
I felt like I was going to faint. This felt so surreal. Chanyeol was standing right in front of me. And he knew who I was. He knew ME! I wanted to scream and shout like I usually do whenever I see my favourite celebrities. But this time I couldn't and I didn't know why.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAMxwAZOs1wy
"Oh, no," said G-Dragon behind me. "This cannot be happening."
902Please respect copyright.PENANAr17rdKj3Jp
Chanyeol waved happily at G-Dragon and I continued to look on at his handsome face. I felt like I was floating in the clouds looking at him.
902Please respect copyright.PENANA6KVMnb2tqq
"Zoey?" G-Dragon called out to me though it felt like his voice was a million miles away.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAP14erkVRrc
"Mmmm." I muttered with a smile as I tilted my head to the side, still staring at Chanyeol.
902Please respect copyright.PENANA9uXPNlFF0j
"I think we better start going. Don't you think?"
902Please respect copyright.PENANAn5Mxr1VtZ1
"No." I giggled as I looked at G-Dragon.
902Please respect copyright.PENANA2a0VFwLmEw
"This is ridiculous," he muttered.
902Please respect copyright.PENANA8RbLUQv06h
Just as I turned to look at Chanyeol, I noticed someone coming behind him. When I tilted my head a little more, I almost fell to the floor when I noticed who was coming our way.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAILzXCnWqjo
"Chan!" Kai called out to Chanyeol as he came towards us. Chanyeol turned to look behind him.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAi7o3pOgsxN
"Kai?" I went around Chanyeol and started to approach Kai.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAG9bnKN7geL
Kai stopped upon seeing me and he looked totally surprised, just as I was with seeing him.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAf1QlndJ9Jp
"Oh, it really is you," said Kai.
902Please respect copyright.PENANATMaAiJPwvO
"I told you it was Zoey," said Chanyeol.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAijE2Lbk7E5
"Wow," I said as my eyes never left Kai's face. "You're even way hotter in person."
902Please respect copyright.PENANAbEd3xoWQC4
Chanyeol laughed behind me and I could already imagine G-Dragon shaking his head, probably annoyed. I could clearly see Kai blushing over my comment and he was speechless.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAnTue1eKbba
Just as things couldn't get any better, the rest of EXO suddenly appeared behind Kai, coming out of a store. At first, they looked left and right down the hall, obviously looking for Chanyeol and Kai. When they spotted them, their mouths dropped upon seeing me. And I, smiled at them and waved.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAY5SaLc8168
They didn't say anything but looked at me the whole time and I looked back at them. This definitely didn't feel real. Just minutes ago, I was looking at cardboard images of them and now they were standing before me in real life. It's like the cardboard images just came to life themselves.
902Please respect copyright.PENANAqfghh77fCF
Just after the thought of that, I soon discovered my scream as I dropped the bags I was carrying and jumped, feeling like the happiest person in the world.
