I poured myself a cup of orange juice as I looked at Christine who sat across from me at the table, having a bite of her toast. I looked at her and realised that she seemed more vibrant today. Was it because of the extra sleep we had yesterday?826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9z0Ha8J19
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM7ZzQM4Bmq
I heard footsteps coming into the lounge and I turned to see Zoey approaching the table.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxEVFAQqBR
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrIhhWNiH71
"Morning, girls," she said as she drew out a chair next to mine and sat down with a bright smile on her face.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXc09AWTTy9
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhel9Nuc2v8
"Morning," Christine and I answered at the same time.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0ULYdphzT
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvcPUVUUjpB
"You ladies look very bright this morning," she said as she took a plate and placed it in front of her.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQp9NR4ykQa
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZy3MHCxIxd
"So do you," said Christine as she took another bite out of her french toast.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbdWQVL69w
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDve1K4UW4
"I guess the sleep we had really worked wonders," I said.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5tsU9wqAdB
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8X8nbi3DUw
"Really?" Zoey asked as she looked at me and held her cheeks with her fingers as though she was massaging them. "Do I look like extra extra pretty?"826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhoQnH8aWy
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJRc0cg7tdT
I smiled at her. "You've always looked pretty, Zoey."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6cI250R5e8
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrkVmuC3vbo
"Morning, people," said Mike as both him and Daniel appeared and came straight for the table.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZEsTiJLaY0
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWUHg5AXjVu
"Morning," we answered him. I gave Daniel, a bright smile. He smiled back.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7i5QXr5cPe
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPchIC5UIxv
"What's with Zoey feeling like she's all pretty?" Mike asked as he took a seat right next to Christine and Daniel sat right next to Zoey.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhrnPPRCONL
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGzqEx8TVA
"Can't you see that I'm glowing?" Zoey asked as she beamed at Mike. "Sam says the extra sleep we had must have helped."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWVCAHlcGqn
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtgQmSOQf6
"Enough sleep is good for the body," said Daniel as he took the jug of orange juice.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqqLZcGkZQn
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzlaEueZDf6
"Are we going to meet with the others today and finish up on the song?" Mike asked as he looked at me.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrib6hKSGCQ
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMiOYZVoem
"I haven't communicated with either of the two groups yet," I said.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh88NfXqwO4
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZCsaiv0F6
"Mmm..., funny," said Zoey as she lifted her toast and looked at it like she was observing it. "I haven't been on my phone since last night."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQOFQDv6Nt6
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwDnWr6ExB
"Really, that's all you can think about?" Christine asked.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRheDOZ02cO
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGgqTL6RYs
"Well..., I guess we were all tired and needed a break. Besides, last night was quite fun."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzmSGtcjLBI
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmb2yopOlE9
"Tell me about it," said Daniel as he held a slice of toast and took a bite.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpG8gkLGZu
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2rrEEPZOH
After we went to catch up on sleep yesterday afternoon, we woke up around 7PM and we all met in the lounge where we ended up playing board games with Lee. Before supper, Collins arrived and joined in on the fun and we told him about our progress on the new song. After supper, we all sat down to watch the Korean drama series, "Boys Over Flowers." We went to bed an hour early before our usual bedtime.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm4N3GYBCpo
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRbofeSkix2
"We should have more sleeping hours, don't you think?" Mike asked.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgC51trOF4C
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckj6EV5COi
"With what we are working on right now, I doubt it," I said. "Maybe after we finally head back home."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWBg0ZbqfZ
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6MJTdBe68
"This album is going to kill us," said Zoey as she leaned her head back and looked up at the ceiling in frustration.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXDytDbhx5
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡboVLh2aFph
"You have to check up on these guys and ask if we're going to meet," said Christine as she looked at me.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsktSfmpwE8
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiAr7DQGve3
"After breakfast," I said. I took a sip of my juice.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2Pdk3ijG6
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMw7jKLyOvL
As we continued to have our breakfast and talked about the snakes and ladders game we had yesterday, Lee and Collins came into the lounge. Lee was taking down something on her tablet while Collins talked to her, almost like he was giving her instructions. I couldn't hear what he was saying because he talked in a low tone and Zoey at the same time was the one talking at the table.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtOG6POXAFn
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2G3M3fqWvy
"All I am saying is," she said, "if Daniel wasn't so lucky, I would have won that game."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsncQcJxOCv
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0XXBC81m6
"Too bad you got eaten by the snake towards the end," said Daniel as he smiled at Zoey.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPTciWWgKs
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqiVbaGeMs
"Sometimes I think you cheat."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPYlz9G2yYt
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm9Ypg2caSd
"Cheating in snakes and ladders is almost impossible," said Christine as I saw her shrug her shoulders. "That's if you have the super power to row the dice to the number that's most suitable."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKF4wSuCUto
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqAWYfmyBF
"Morning," said Collins as he and Lee came towards us. "I see Zoey still hasn't gotten over that snakes and ladders game."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6CfGTt4CGU
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7Gs7AHBqx
Zoey looked down at her empty plate, not daring to look up at Collins. "Not really," she said.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1gM8x7FqI2
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrq5XPjMJz
"Will all of BTW be meeting today to continue working on the song?" Collins asked as he looked at me.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEGjCcpP9QD
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb144RWuhK3
"I have to communicate with them and see if it's possible," I answered.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZmRbSqNIR
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFRdrMz2vB
"Well, I sure hope so. I told Yang Hyun-suk that you already started. He wants to hear it tomorrow, so I really hope you do make progress."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYle5yZjv7
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw79NM9rPVC
"I better go give them a call, then."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvca5jTcrG1
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI0XuAXpgi0
I drew my chair back and left the table. I later found myself back in the room I shared with Zoey. I went straight for my phone that was beside the bed lamp. It felt like it had stayed there for a very long time because I barely touched it last night.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDyNkXsv3uM
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVQeVcQgys
I checked my lock screen and found no messages whatsoever. Maybe its because I hadn't turned the wifi on on my phone. After I unlocked it and switched on the wifi, notifications came flooding in almost at the same time most of them from social networks like Instagram and Twitter. I ignored them all as I went on my WhatsApp to check if there were any messages on the BTW chat group. But nothing.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYswloeTIYy
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4oUPYB2iJ
"Strange," I muttered to myself as I sat on my bed. I decided to leave a message, but that wasn't going to be enough.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZ9KfsM9D3
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡapmzB3vyyY
I decided to make a call to one of the BlackPink members. Jennie was the first member on my contact list so I called her.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFTlpPys8AW
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnOEfAd73n
I put my phone to my ear. Her phone rang but she wasn't picking up. I waited until the voicemail came up and I cut the call right away. Maybe she was still asleep or she wasn't so close to the phone. I called again and still her phone went straight to voicemail.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ppAuqpLua
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpIaEJ8U48n
I called Jisoo next, and just like Jennie's phone, it went straight to voicemail. Something didn't feel right. Why were they both not answering their phones?826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9sOLRrfAiD
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHP8zNEU2y2
I went on ahead to call Seunghoon and this time, I prayed that his phone wasn't going to act like the others. Upon the third ring, he answered.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUnj7frd4pi
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqeyQeXtZcV
"Hello?" Seunghoon answered. He sounded sleepy.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdD6I4QKSPv
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn2YmKhmld0
"Seunghoon? Hey, are you still asleep?" I asked.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8laeBaFmZ
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGDfkCtzL3o
"Sam?" he sounded surprised and more awake. "Oh, I didn't notice it was you."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEjA6rRsep
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyppCopq1yn
"Are you guys coming to meet us here at the hotel? We have a song to work on, remember?"826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd26N78Z9iE
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAm0pV7nCjJ
"Oh, oh, ya, we do..., ummm, eish.....," I heard him mutter something in Korean. "You said we can meet either today or tomorrow, right?"826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxj2RnDjtSg
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMFNWg5hnKO
"Umm...," I raised an eyebrow. Something was definitely not right at the moment. "Yes, I did. That's why I called to see if you guys are up it."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdGk5wYtFDM
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDHzOs5zp5
"Oh, umm, let me ask if these guys are up for it." I heard movement, like someone was pushing away the sheets to try and get out of bed. "I'll call you right back."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8hcyqHwyZb
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmKe8A4VY6
"Ya, sure."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBYCHl0zxaz
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZBJfT8G2l
Seunghoon cut the call and I couldn't help but wonder. Maybe the others weren't up for meeting today. It was for the best to have it cancelled.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rBWSNDL9g
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0KiszjrRW
The door to the room flew open and Zoey came in.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwNl2BOYgbZ
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW610dt88yP
"Anything?" Zoey asked.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN5vUX4Rb9c
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbd3QJyCWYS
"Couldn't reach Jennie or Jisoo," I answered. "But I did reach Seunghoon and he will get back to me as soon as he talks to the others."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJtTVa97KS
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQK6hKD4BiY
"Okay, well, we can wait."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGcul06lNZB
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGZnCEErP7
"Maybe we should cancel and meet tomorrow. Seunghoon was still asleep when I called."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAiKV0c7JBE
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwaO1TArEHU
"We could, but Yang Hyun-suk wants to hear the song tomorrow."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobn3OJqCwA
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdnhBZLLQ0f
"We can tell Collins to tell him that he will have to wait a little longer."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkrliQhT84P
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ohK1vHjgV
"Geez, this is Yang Hyun-suk we're talking about. He wouldn't like taking orders from a missy like you."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡouquFbPVeh
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZcQmsRpW0
I shrugged my shoulders. "It's just a suggestion, not an order."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7TKpZGJMNa
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOzBPsdQBFx
"Ooh, you know what I mean," she said irritatingly.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7C8fDnlE9t
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcPbs4eSqzX
"We can't work on the song without them."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKXKK4n4IG
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTtCRqetC5o
"True, but you started to work on the song way before we all met yesterday. You're a good songwriter after all."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1XfJVlCmkc
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiI9jvejVCn
"I hope we won't have to write the songs of the entire album ourselves. We will need to bring out some songwriters. We don't really have much time."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFyg50irMlG
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzTEIPDfNOh
"Huh, funny. Collins was talking about it with Lee just now. You two seem to think alike."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQHbTVfP1t0
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25QX35kZKK
"Yay, we will be working on one song," I said with less enthusiasm.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCF8TNETMG
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ38JpqDj12P
"Then get your guitar and notebook."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYD0dQQDnE
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqTUpfZh1qC
"May you help me with my guitar?" I asked. "It's in the closet."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOg8IrwPdrj
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡavSeHg1u7F
"Really? Why do I get to carry the heavy stuff for you?"826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctF7BLVtfR
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM7QdOXySpI
"I never let you carry any of my heavy stuff. And besides, the guitar isn't so heavy."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF9pD5D23uA
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP6XEE7jN4m
"Whatever," Zoey rolled her eyes at me as she went to the closet to get it. I stretched out over my bed to get my notebook in one of the drawers on the other side of the bed.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCOAm845imq
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtBjqwjNbhB
Zoey and I soon left the room, Zoey with my guitar and me, with my phone and notebook. I expected Seunghoon to have called back by now but he hadn't. Strange.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnANswpgMVA
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeM93CppD3F
"Aah, it's good to see that you are much more serious than I thought about the song," said Collins as we entered the lounge.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnsHcQGIMo4
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOXx37Hohm
"Of course we are," said Zoey as she smiled at Collins seated in the lounge. My brothers and Christine weren't by the dining table.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzuCgJWRSN
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRP1VztZKCA
"And what about the others?" Lee asked. She was standing right in front of us with the tablet still in her hands. "Are they going to make it?"826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbLZ8hnW8oG
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWYSwo1zi9d
"Am yet to receive a reply," I answered.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8uFwzhDSU
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIC023hnCSN
"I hope all goes to plan," said Collins as he stood up. "Yang Hyun-suk is really looking forward to hearing the song."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbaxs656wc
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLKHEMndQnD
I gulped. Something told me it was best if the managers heard the song another day.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfNuAlXDLx
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94CPAtFhEi
"I actually think we need a little more time," I said to Collins.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4S1Hidf6ky
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0pXwRCKyl5
"Really?" he raised his eyebrow at me.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5NebZdJLAj
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7TT926VUD
I felt Zoey look at me. She knew what I was doing. I had no other choice but to stall.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDo9Wb5d4v8
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryFR8ATEO6
"Yes, really," I answered.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfqJq1w2iZ
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwPc5Eqnu7
"Whatever reason you have, fine. But you will have to finish the song because tomorrow we will meet other songwriters and composers for the album. But we will still need that song from you."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0TojzvPiyE
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡavNJVaK5yB
I nodded my head. "It will be a great song, trust me."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM3pBEBtB2K
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLLFf1fu6Qd
Collins smiled at Zoey and I, then left the lounge heading for the elevator. It looked like he was going out as always.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtQ0uyDmfa
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvjisMF46c
"Well, that went well," said Zoey after we were sure that Collins had gone.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgmbFvG0ma
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVvaHPtQrB
"What went well?" Lee asked.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaLqzIQp40j
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1stRrY8du6
"Nothing, nothing," said Zoey as she went ahead to put the guitar on the nearest couch and smiled at Lee.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUuYXuYZ98s
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvqVx45aJT
I knew Lee was going to stare at me to get an answer, so, I avoided her gaze by looking at my phone. Still nothing from Seunghoon. I debated on whether to give him another call.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq7QqRqOZPW
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOpO138OyZl
I heard one of the doors open and shut in the hall followed by Christine's voice singing to a song by Maroon 5: "She will be loved" until she entered the lounge.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc0sUfM8OSx
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqDx4OXcg8H
"Any news from the others yet?" she asked as she stood beside me.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCfoIHFV5n
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfBpthkrJRx
I shook my head. "I can't reach BlackPink and Seunghoon said he would inform me soon if he and the rest are going to make it."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzw0m4mB1x
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsA7WKZnLjS
"Bummer," she said as she went over to sit on the couch. Zoey soon joined her.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLoi48Cl6v4
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxILTBN4XD
"Now I see why you don't want the managers hearing the song tomorrow," said Lee. "You're not sure if these guys are going to show."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPu9HPMsc2r
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDjJZz0H92
"I thought we agreed that we were all going to rest and then meet up," said Christine.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHaLNNrwhG3
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLaQbKxPzq
"The sad part was I suggested we meet either today or tomorrow," I said.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpi2UZWFoLE
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Kv1QVmhBP
"I think I was the one who suggested that," said Lee as she winced.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6c1r0mGaY
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRT3VeBF19R
"Judging by Sam's phone that should have rang minutes ago, we're likely to meet tomorrow," said Zoey.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmU2ZAC4uSe
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgDF8V3Esi
She was right. I looked at my phone and I felt like I should have just left it behind in my room. Seunghoon might call to tell me that they weren't going to make it. Jisoo or Jennie would find my missed calls and call me back to say the same thing.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFPe9jYomY
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnVbfLzosXJ
"Ya, you're right," I said as I slumped my shoulders and lowered my phone. I sighed.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQOrPZ8sAM
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbfn2kAVfH
"If these guys are taking a day off, don't you think we should as well?" Zoey asked.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhr5dYNyvHr
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsrRhgqwapP
"No!" Christine, Lee and I said at the same time.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkr8iWrWly
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWzGqk6BICh
Zoey's face was one filled with disappointment. "I really wanted to go shopping."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjykmXeDEk
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01SGyVvQEY
"If they won't come, we will work on the song ourselves," I said. "I'll just text them-"826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTP7FBBJ1VA
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgKrBNNh7qD
The phone beeps in my hand. I looked at it and I found a message from Seunghoon. I read the message saying that they won't be able to make it. I texted back and told him we would meet tomorrow.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJY9Of9uh10
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7RI3wAvjGz
After pressing the send button, Lee asked, "was that Seunghoon?"826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpWVWzHQ9eg
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpowougEKE
"Yep, and he said they aren't going to make it."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVVZJKfgdx
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOyLqJ44Oq8
"Well, you saw this coming," said Zoey.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQ9Uk0ChGL
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmr6XTLp7l
"And you did well to stall the managers," said Lee. "That will give you some breathing space."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ainQcLXMr
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoD7utRIk3a
"We better start working on the song," I said as I went over to the couch where my guitar lay and lifted it to create space to sit. "Where are Mike and Daniel?"826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2XyLt2cZT
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBxp7terG3s
"I can go call them, they are in their room," said Lee.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW3TjMpaKgt
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKkZsnWskH
She didn't even have to leave the lounge as Mike and Daniel soon appeared.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5NMDF6PO6
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlNqmDW7gX
"We're working on the song already?" Daniel asked. "Aren't we waiting for the others?"826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2Zbh4y9EJ
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5mlQXaDdfr
"They won't make it today," said Zoey as I sat down.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4I2bU4VAY
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeOxI9ETSa7
"Mmm..., how come?" Mike asked, sounding puzzled.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzrl73UrigE
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiMXrgLqk5a
"They wouldn't say, just that they can't make it, at least that's what Seunghoon told me on behalf of WINNER," I said. "I'm yet to hear from BlackPink."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZBguDgBLyS
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMviRs9oUd
"Bummer," said Daniel as he came to sit right beside me.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnuJnaN6AKi
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpKPxxtaJ4
"Not to worry, we can still make progress without them. Shall we begin?"826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQCavSyRaU
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOS3p7EKoc4
Mike sat opposite Daniel and I. We first did a recap of the song and continued working on the first verse since that was where we left off. Without the others it was kind of difficult since Mino and Seungyoon came up with great lyrics for the first verse. We had to go with the flow though and it didn't seem so bad.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrarAm6Kn06

We were still on the first verse, checking out sentences and debating whether one word sounded better than the other when my phone rang. It laid on the armrest of the couch. I checked who was calling and rolled my eyes.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPH1NDh9hp
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3BdHMl7PS
"Who's calling, Sam?" Daniel asked.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYpmDXpBAGu
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQaeGTgZW9
"I'll tell you," said Zoey, "it's G-Dragon. If it's not, then it's probably someone who's just as annoying as he is."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGuLFU6B6IE
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡycnHvM2eTA
"It's him, alright," I said as I took the phone and picked up the call. "Hey, GD."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5uSEtha5o0
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vjXrvHSNT
"Hi, I'm in the elevator right now coming to your floor. I'll be there in like 30 seconds."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlaGwACiBmQ
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8En0DYAXs
"Wait, you're....," the line went dead. I stared at the phone.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72deQIEPvy
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWXjlWzlgMC
"What is it?" Christine asked.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1eTtNEVFeH
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmctakSwSAv
We heard the sound of the elevator doors on our floor announcing the arrival of our visitor.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRtuE744DmZ
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAI1WMQ4kCE
"He's here," I said.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsyuP9xzc5v
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡraPBa7o91v
Lee who sat at the dining table, working, asked, "how come we were never informed at the reception of his arrival?"826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLDIicOkvxj
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQP7jg0UFPR
"It's because I told them not to," came G-Dragon as he appeared in the lounge.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFnnjGxXNX
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQIunm2AntQ
We turned to look at him. Somehow, I wasn't surprised that he was here.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0hnfeRlx2k
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgKYyXDu7bk
"Hello, everyone," he greeted as he came to where the five of us, sat.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhL381Kuhbt
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4wmFXXE6T
Four of us, including Lee, replied to his greeting except Zoey who said, "how come you're here?"826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQfz3jpED0Q
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIRc0EgWmTm
"What's wrong with me being here?" he asked as he shrugged his shoulders.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG0Css0ZROx
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPfErMP0Qg
"For someone who went partying last night, you seem pretty sober."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFStTlRyq64
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0NKjoNR6zn
"Oh.., how did the party go anyway?" Christine asked.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ALvEU9fD0
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyP8MwiJwMR
"It was great," he said with a happy grin.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoCwLrqQmCs
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡESkbZZhVAE
"Zoey has a point, though," said Mike. "For someone who had a great time at the party, you seem pretty sober and...," he snapped his fingers as he tried to think of a word.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYz6jnc622
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLa5GTTMpXq
"Normal?" Daniel suggested. Though he was only joking.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnL47MWleZN
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKB0g2Ybrt
"Wait, you think I'm not normal?" G-Dragon asked. He almost looked offended.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEefw3vTQu5
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWAJ4NFDKC
"Nah, that's not the word, Daniel," said Mike. "It doesn't matter anyway."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPiq0lJYMl
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9auQ921RCV
I looked over at Mike and he had a small smirk on his face that was almost unnoticeable to everyone else. I found Daniel also staring at his brother and then he looked at me. The two of us knew he meant what Daniel said.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2tOEHMnewh
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWIk7v7LK5
"We had a blast yesterday," said G-Dragon as he went over to join Mike on the couch. "I thought you checked the photos on Instagram."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXg1rShW0Fm
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE3G9abwIlg
"Did you just say 'we?'" I asked as I raised my eyebrow at him.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4rrVYhdngu
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsH4X26MgdD
"What?" he asked as if he hadn't heard my question. I felt like he did.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNcRB33o62Y
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFuB042Sf2S
"You said 'we.' Who else were you with?"826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16reSDyN3v
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVIufFUgixj
"Oh.., just friends, very close..., very good friends," he answered as he nodded his head.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpTZcMT5BVr
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOtUi4K8iP
"Okay," I said as I slowly nodded back. "I'm glad you had fun."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ57bOZ0Nxwf
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdCTcVdRxs
"You guys should have come. It was amazing."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡES8kr50gMD
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtTNvG3M7g5
"Too late for that now, isn't it?" Christine asked.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnU3Hg38fRB
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnSn5IQ58B1
"Yep, too late. But you could still see the pics of how much fun we had."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlE0mJOAerS
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkpkP3RvAgu
"I bet there was plenty of booze too," said Zoey.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7mDz7v5MM
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDgEeLE4h4
"Plenty," said G-Dragon with a smile.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSTFyxCPBE5
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxgfeeYrIBb
I couldn't help but feel something strange with what G-Dragon said a few sentences ago. Maybe I was just imagining things. Any who....826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdB085gof1I
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡraDk9uHoCA
"We can check the pics later," I said. "We have a song to write."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDVbJNMw8Z
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIGyycs9H3X
"The others aren't here yet?" G-Dragon asked. "How can you work on the song without them?"826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZYMdPk7hl
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo0RwDe8m0G
"Seunghoon called to tell me they weren't going to make it. I haven't heard anything from BlackPink but I doubt they will come, so I called off the meeting and we are working on it instead."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZiLJLloeIp
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbuKjVdDZ10
"Oh. I think that's fair considering that they must be tired from the party."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhRufR8NzGV
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMm8bnj7n5
I looked at G-Dragon, and so did the rest of the Toxins.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGSY6iLDwGU
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCoIo316Vs3
"They were with you at the party?" Daniel asked.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdnfcbwlJF
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6YIE3PZcn
"Huh....?" G-Dragon now looked like the confused one. "I thought you knew."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBN5c4eIcCy
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2OAN1LP2L6
"How would we know when we were resting yesterday and we were completely off social media?" Christine asked.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOpV5BtLTh
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡde1HUolI7e
G-Dragon shrugged his shoulders. He left our floor early yesterday, so he had no idea that we all agreed to rest and continue working on the song later. Can't blame him for that.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6AAmVM9VdV
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rGOqMkAY5
"You dragged them to the party, didn't you?" Zoey asked as she pointed a finger at him. "You're such a manipulator!"826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbDJ2RyT5O5
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6FrB79EJ7h
"I didn't convince them, I swear," he said as he raised his hands in surrender. But then he looked at me and lowered them. "Okay..., maybe a little."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1qRlIgONkF
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCqbFIcThO
"I knew it!" Zoey said with a look on her face.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYd7GRQlZxJ
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTc1DBE0C2x
"But ninety percent of the whole convincing thing was on the other guy."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqEzrXaEjVU
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6N1diYb3N
"The other guy?" Mike asked as he raised his eyebrows.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpQJmZewpU
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7npwJcT0x4
"Who's the other guy?" Christine asked.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5dsupx7hD
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5uyL9ak47
I knew there was something fishy about G-Dragon's earlier statements. He didn't just go and party with "just" close friends.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorlGeauuFX
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2TvXAJhdMw
"Tell us," Zoey demanded when G-Dragon didn't speak.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpxXB9Xhry
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYsT965Xf0w
We looked at him as he also stared back at each one of us. The look in his eyes made me realise that he didn't want to talk for fear of what might happen next.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5frvhy9V1U
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7q8AUthoDd
"Looks like you lost your tongue, GD," said Daniel. "Please tell us who you were with. I don't think it's that much of a big deal."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8t0HSBd5Hy
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXFaOZvUwJ
G-Dragon squeezed his eyes shut in fright. And just like that, we knew it was a big deal.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUH8v05etUb
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikRO6tvvIO
"Goodness, just tell us, GD," I said. "We have a song to work on and you're just wasting our time."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkuJn4xfOu8
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTLtokuSQPH
"It was a mistake coming here," said G-Dragon as he nervously stood up from the couch. "I better get going. Sorry for disturbing you."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPoh8cdCdHU
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8txkWL8Ce
All five of us stood up and surrounded him. It was five against one and he knew he couldn't stand a chance. We came closer, making it tight for him to leave.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkUatFHefRu
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxYwjasti7f
"GD, sit down, please," I instructed him and he did.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2KsGYKCCzP
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJRaJiuvouJ
"Now," said Zoey as she cracked her knuckles. "You're going to answer our questions. You don't want to receive these babies," she gestured to her fists, "on your face."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEiwoYhPgkO
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVyWxsvFJji
"Okay, okay," G-Dragon surrendered. "I'll tell you."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2YJbzNYXTV
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEOlhmbaCVd
"First question," said Christine with her arms folded. "Who were you with downstairs when you left our floor yesterday?"826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZekcvCJNd
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVb4dG5uwe
G-Dragon gulped as he looked at us. "You won't like the answer I am about to give you. You will kill me before I even leave this place."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0V3Q6nduZj
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCdunAuer1U
"We will make sure to bury you in a lovely place, promise," said Mike. "Now, spill."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhiBHuchwbk
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUBcMU07hZ
G-Dragon sat upright and cleared his throat. "When I came out of the elevator, I saw..., I saw this guy. He recognised me immediately and said he was a big fan..., and so....., we talked for a while. We got along well...., and then that's when the others came..."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ61IXL65xye
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrSGmQ5Zl3
"GD, we don't want to hear how you all met," I said, "we want a name. Who is the guy?"826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGFk0vduvSW
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEodsC7kb8D
"It's..., it's..., Johnny," said G-Dragon. He immediately looked down at the floor.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7bh3KaqPq
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4RWUWBGD8c
"Johnny Jerkins!" the five of us said at the same time.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWXumpeBaL
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc2uFYLYBsS
"Yes," G-Dragon as he slowly nodded his head, still facing downwards.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1tgTK2p0kj
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvGYeZlyHoR
Zoey fell onto the couch next to G-Dragon like she was about to pass out, her hand on her forehead.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpR2dPfNXx
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBsskwEdTf
"I can't believe it" she said.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK8gHKB2s9U
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9nJdKSvihF
"That explains everything," I said, as I looked at a certain part of the wall above the couch, my mind far off.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0mGibWzRp
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2TLVzo3qhL
"No wonder they couldn't make it," said Daniel.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPWFVgtSyJa
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLkJyTZ0js
"They didn't just go to the party, they were hanging out with Johnny," said Mike.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkjFtqXhba
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMy4Clg0NNh
"Ya...., you won't like what I am about to show you," said Lee behind us.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWw3mavw1Jm
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGbZWg2gMo
We all turned to look at Lee as she approached with a tablet in her hands. She went to sit on the couch I had been sitting on with Daniel. I went to sit next to her, Christine on her other side. Mike and Daniel went over to stand at the back of the couch so as to see more clearly on the tablet.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ57rrKmH8ZS
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7Kxm4ALah
She was on Instagram and she had gone on one of G-Dragon's fan pages. One of the first photos we saw of last night was a picture of him and Johnny staring at the camera and smiling. They had hands over each other's shoulders like they were best buddies.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37EybQ9o76
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQloKCbekRA
It was definitely Johnny Jerkins alright. His white blonde hair cropped to the sides and a strand of it falling above his right blue eye. He was almost G-Dragon's height and he had on a white shirt and brown khaki shorts. I noticed their surrounding and I couldn't help but ask:826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvH39is14h
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡylCmt6J95D
"You guys had a party on a boat?" I looked at G-Dragon.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZYOxMYNXP
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKEi4vGPe3K
"What! A cruise party!" Zoey yelled as she sat up quickly. She looked like she had woken from her slumber as she went to stand alongside my two brothers.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx4uhkFUWXC
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ70MBIdsPbE
Lee continued to scroll down the page and more pictures came up. This time, there were some of BlackPink and WINNER having a good time with Johnny and G-Dragon. There were other pictures with fans who wanted to take pics with the K-Pop superstars.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡflvQQZqmpl
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLyZXQeq4g
"You guys had such a good time," said Zoey. "I wish I came."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlnXRDfqJz1
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7idXjjfIN
"You see, you guys should have tagged along," said G-Dragon.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZIYCXHnPY
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgmSxESlA6
"And hang out with Johnny? Heck no!" Zoey detested.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2tctriYOx
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIM0Jl0ltSm
"He seems pretty cool."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxuVgXKuK4k
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLS7xfUK7Y
"That's because you only just met him," said Daniel.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuztMbp9bWj
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJFpotxGFoR
"You won't be hanging out with him more often, will you?" Christine asked.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ93iOQMs1yP
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHFRhCFEAP
"Nah," G-Dragon denied. "I guess all that was just a one time thing."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjhdia6zw12
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfoWQl3hvzX
"That's what they all say," said Zoey. I imagined her rolling her eyes when she said that.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2NfXWaIJEu
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0T5eVVTcT
"And let's not forget, he's in this hotel," I said. "Avoiding him will be tricky."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWjAw3HQMP
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXnOf6Ktbt2
"Don't you think maybe you guys are taking this thing a little too far?" G-Dragon asked.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmkXbgpldYc
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwfbgYfVt8w
"What thing?" Christine asked. Her eyes were still fixed on the tablet as Lee continued to scroll.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsf8d6pWjSr
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlUusBlbd5v
"This 'Johnny' thing?"826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNbRzhGfJt3
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZEbRWVHxt
I looked up from the tablet at G-Dragon and I knew I wasn't the only one.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKvGkLYw74b
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLexXPIlglc
"Why would we?" I asked.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdMsa59FVe7
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9PJsEIen6
"You talk about him as if he's your worst enemy."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡub8jHv8wmb
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtH2W2LJYOb
"Look, we don't hate people, well, maybe some," said Mike. "It's just that some people aren't worth hanging out with."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjp0HxJYUd
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGusvXxdYOK
"Because of his actions back at school? Please, that was a long time ago."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JHzxjqY14
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNt8dBBRVgT
"You're right," said Zoey. "It was a long time ago, but we would rather keep our distance. Some people are just toxic, you know?"826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk1r7ILfMKz
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHkIFuK7lG
"How ironic," said G-Dragon as he stood up from the couch.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXnBqTntFQv
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlLDbyIyKu
"Leaving already?" Lee asked.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOso3CKcLJA
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrnB6IzFwZ
"Ya, I really should. Just came to check up on the progress with the song."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltLfcaWQfr
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbnj0NU0uJS
G-Dragon didn't seem like himself. I looked at him and this time I didn't give him a criticising look like I always do. I could tell he was upset if not sad.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXnYQEIPyB
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlr1GFm8iup
"I'll escort you to the elevator," I said as I stood up from the couch.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZnBrT3hfG7
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQGExtR7dG
"Ok," he said and he turned to address the others, "I'll see you guys later."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4rcz3P53m
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCeGmcV8XxX
"Bye, GD," the rest replied at the same time. Their tone sounded low almost as if they didn't want to upset him any further.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWThIIvQZNF
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6asX1plrJ
G-Dragon made his way out of the lounge and I was right behind him.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1b3pnvnfQM
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrrSX5Yw95r
"Well, you seem upset," I said to him when we were in the hall.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1t8ATUAF8S
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZjjNs3C0I
"No, I'm not," he said as he shrugged his shoulders.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZoc4RFOJf
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI8JVK08Nyc
I held his shoulder and he stopped walking, his back still facing me.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgbVoMp8uE6
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzwYI9zJtw
"I know when you're upset," I said as I dropped my hand. "I think the others know too."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2LVgLtOoy
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgHPWPc7UbX
He turned around to look at me. "I don't get you guys at all," he said.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡypVYL6uIyA
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9OsgEhTwgf
"What do you mean?" I folded my arms.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSRlYyrCtdz
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrSC7uqh5o
"I mean, you guys are the nicest and coolest people I have ever met and I never thought you would be so spiteful about someone. You weren't all like this when you were dealing with Jehan...., well, maybe Zoey, but even she wasn't so extreme."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbTwrQBirW
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvaBV4kjGq
"We aren't perfect, you know? We have our emotions too, whether good or bad."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmsTDlfY3l
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvLRoQAZZcC
"But why hate on Johnny so much?"826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVYETrTtZ5e
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GHRLPSesZ
I shook my head. "We don't hate him. We do hate what he did to us in the past, but we don't actually hate him."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJdk2PNkz0y
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdDfO1nHBc
"Really?"826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYsrcIPFZph
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ848iTarPTb
"If we really did, we would have called him worse names than 'jerk' now, wouldn't we?"826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWq0clCRZP
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQqSBuUsiC
G-Dragon bit his lip and he didn't have to admit I was right. "Then why can't you come to peace with him?" he asked. "You don't even want to cross paths with him, like ever."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Tx0zJbHBI
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkzLA3ebkc
I sighed as I dropped my arms. "Some people aren't worth mingling around with, Jiyong."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6OwRzcpUcc
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16ply2eSHw
"Is there something you aren't telling me?" He raised his eyebrow at me and took a step closer.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeeTfUcLdHO
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIxLiGMRzd
I shrugged my shoulders. "Kind of," I answered. "You're yet to know everything in due time."826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQMaRTYmJHp
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzMYdvHgmk
G-Dragon slowly nodded his head. I could tell that he understood and is willing to wait. But for how long is the million dollar question.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKdNnTlZEp
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJm1Nd7haEZ
"Okay, I'll see you around, then," said G-Dragon as he managed to smile.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshBmbqiVhw
826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryt2knBVAV
"Ya, you too," I answered as I smiled back.826Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3PUPnXjRI1
