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?791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCLmRB91DO
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrrNmhkdXik
I heard footsteps coming into the lounge and I turned to see Zoey approaching the table.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZu5kfizl7
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJwRATk2Qw0
"Morning, girls," she said as she drew out a chair next to mine and sat down with a bright smile on her face.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHFL4VCIGe1
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXokW8ALlAc
"Morning," Christine and I answered at the same time.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrYqSjS3Qfu
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFs0vFD1ajZ
"You ladies look very bright this morning," she said as she took a plate and placed it in front of her.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0zKaFKg3u
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZUXfBI53h
"So do you," said Christine as she took another bite out of her french toast.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnV2cqb5QjB
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHzMLzi8k5y
"I guess the sleep we had really worked wonders," I said.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVMAf1PC8z
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6RqezPVAfP
"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?"791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzsTwHWqCg
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsYWjcC020f
I smiled at her. "You've always looked pretty, Zoey."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxeplKGDVeg
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUPnF0fUHGr
"Morning, people," said Mike as both him and Daniel appeared and came straight for the table.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rmlLmIiNZ
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡptMXRdOD6Q
"Morning," we answered him. I gave Daniel, a bright smile. He smiled back.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqqhUT4b36y
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM67QauC9gu
"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.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvwMvXRyoD
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdezGmOnGfH
"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."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMcCHuqQcGD
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHozOpQNZs3
"Enough sleep is good for the body," said Daniel as he took the jug of orange juice.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19CJ5xlWDm
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAuBxTu1nDF
"Are we going to meet with the others today and finish up on the song?" Mike asked as he looked at me.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDGvQbqtzVw
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡidwcWWyske
"I haven't communicated with either of the two groups yet," I said.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWa3aJYl54
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaH0nFctAh8
"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."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2tgvOGTJee
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1IXKtfnHun
"Really, that's all you can think about?" Christine asked.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNxfILxvQG3
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡReBbqjLS8e
"Well..., I guess we were all tired and needed a break. Besides, last night was quite fun."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1EfzMyzmGt
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsd8LvsoJzP
"Tell me about it," said Daniel as he held a slice of toast and took a bite.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡodRz73BNMb
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQbqsv2KzdX
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.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwhupDnjiz
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRzjpRO0y7
"We should have more sleeping hours, don't you think?" Mike asked.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxcrQIhUyqn
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKYWkhjVgRZ
"With what we are working on right now, I doubt it," I said. "Maybe after we finally head back home."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNeqlvR4dyu
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy875v6Edgb
"This album is going to kill us," said Zoey as she leaned her head back and looked up at the ceiling in frustration.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5rBmSqcVVv
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPypMAyjMWV
"You have to check up on these guys and ask if we're going to meet," said Christine as she looked at me.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFt5ppUUd0a
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7iR41lCz18
"After breakfast," I said. I took a sip of my juice.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8sO6ilzxES
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6c1sLQxV9
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.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9U9vUOT7AQ
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwk1zg4S6HZ
"All I am saying is," she said, "if Daniel wasn't so lucky, I would have won that game."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFOchSXEq8
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHAgXZpAOF
"Too bad you got eaten by the snake towards the end," said Daniel as he smiled at Zoey.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUbd01qLcVp
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyraqzA6289
"Sometimes I think you cheat."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQb7dwGqzqF
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmD6bRI4I8
"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."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL77s95oHNX
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkNteVw4kXF
"Morning," said Collins as he and Lee came towards us. "I see Zoey still hasn't gotten over that snakes and ladders game."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFYSuMMfqTo
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKjR44XcVjH
Zoey looked down at her empty plate, not daring to look up at Collins. "Not really," she said.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKmv5EJB7H
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1aPe6izu2
"Will all of BTW be meeting today to continue working on the song?" Collins asked as he looked at me.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemgQ8lWhSM
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ91YEJfRcWQ
"I have to communicate with them and see if it's possible," I answered.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgwXEOjWkaL
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3R6urlZPk
"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."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfc5rYGrxAX
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmOdDkAOYs
"I better go give them a call, then."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2u70OOPeZ
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zyJPkd3GE
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.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9dLy8zwuTB
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOrumQdnYS
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.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmBgaEBL216
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9NhVNMRNcJ
"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.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrmSpe0WAQ
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9yhIYJm4KV
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.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObndi1sqyC
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjY8jkVyEx
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.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgdamaewnb
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGjgZZFOpe
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?791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGDoYNSxxNL
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIkJGl5g5Zs
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.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOoo1BqFDKK
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTZymCLWep
"Hello?" Seunghoon answered. He sounded sleepy.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDdcCuGPpUa
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQUoO0oDHe
"Seunghoon? Hey, are you still asleep?" I asked.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vjYxDSUzF
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs2tO78jghZ
"Sam?" he sounded surprised and more awake. "Oh, I didn't notice it was you."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYmgQX6OOX
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ23bl5uWcGP
"Are you guys coming to meet us here at the hotel? We have a song to work on, remember?"791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8V3Up3sLqQ
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGl2H5PAYMj
"Oh, oh, ya, we do..., ummm, eish.....," I heard him mutter something in Korean. "You said we can meet either today or tomorrow, right?"791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2R9TxbP3X
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhRa0MFW94
"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."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrnj32coKq
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvvGZaCtdjd
"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."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJ7m4grT61
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzpUUbAQ8f
"Ya, sure."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCR52QVMM4o
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKwUu9YBBIH
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.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡus7HKSeD6H
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5t6T2RyqP
The door to the room flew open and Zoey came in.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaz4vJiqT10
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMqKMkuffMg
"Anything?" Zoey asked.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡec9VWd0VIx
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡME82g7hQfO
"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."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Q90smOjEM
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEchFtYgsfO
"Okay, well, we can wait."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡka8fRI5qWm
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfvVxRNMORF
"Maybe we should cancel and meet tomorrow. Seunghoon was still asleep when I called."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEWHh1Fka2
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqaaG87Qrng
"We could, but Yang Hyun-suk wants to hear the song tomorrow."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPLohIt7MBU
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHeZ8sfhEYq
"We can tell Collins to tell him that he will have to wait a little longer."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCDRizJeo9
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwTHEpxjkx
"Geez, this is Yang Hyun-suk we're talking about. He wouldn't like taking orders from a missy like you."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqLDd0Ue8S
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoTEIha9tXs
I shrugged my shoulders. "It's just a suggestion, not an order."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVKxsZ6RgF
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvHG0wXDl9X
"Ooh, you know what I mean," she said irritatingly.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0StTKnBan
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBxybrKq3xA
"We can't work on the song without them."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqQfFANQQK
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm66Fcc6jv0
"True, but you started to work on the song way before we all met yesterday. You're a good songwriter after all."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgvH5ciE87B
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEy9rUwmWfN
"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."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlcTLxOxsyI
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZrNtQgnUL
"Huh, funny. Collins was talking about it with Lee just now. You two seem to think alike."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4elGsfvQ67
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrA8Vk2BTF4
"Yay, we will be working on one song," I said with less enthusiasm.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpkLzaoG2xJ
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMeZ0bBg7K
"Then get your guitar and notebook."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnO30EhXdgL
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCkTA7xjhvV
"May you help me with my guitar?" I asked. "It's in the closet."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE6NOGlK1Pd
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLeUXFpc1QM
"Really? Why do I get to carry the heavy stuff for you?"791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZwzYlFfqzv
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHW9X2CzHF
"I never let you carry any of my heavy stuff. And besides, the guitar isn't so heavy."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5GzSpKfcGg
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2uhh2eol7
"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.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtTDqeyUYXS
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlaal3UsTur
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.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFcZd2x5HnG
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNzjqYPz5p0
"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.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9CC2xfOc7H
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSDhodIopam
"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.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqNhamKFgiL
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1JfQ9RR5f
"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?"791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuXNhG0nOwr
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg7by5e4ciK
"Am yet to receive a reply," I answered.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5re9QshxPh
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdx18neZrhJ
"I hope all goes to plan," said Collins as he stood up. "Yang Hyun-suk is really looking forward to hearing the song."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2roOwZoM2
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQ74IAx9T0
I gulped. Something told me it was best if the managers heard the song another day.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHiWr0cFgf
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7g1vpE8Uc8
"I actually think we need a little more time," I said to Collins.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGYTZYhQuX
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmRCSdAe8T
"Really?" he raised his eyebrow at me.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0MgA60xKHj
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxPEwnt4aBq
I felt Zoey look at me. She knew what I was doing. I had no other choice but to stall.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvMei1Db4K
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGkSJjXuoa6
"Yes, really," I answered.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQjVX5PhQM
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZTiV3zitEW
"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."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiWLgwn9dqB
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHuwyFkJdSl
I nodded my head. "It will be a great song, trust me."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv93loE3NE1
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkG6x2bCHOW
Collins smiled at Zoey and I, then left the lounge heading for the elevator. It looked like he was going out as always.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb7mYzaulG1
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCtYfTtJW48
"Well, that went well," said Zoey after we were sure that Collins had gone.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNwbPspqVDo
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhESpIzm67
"What went well?" Lee asked.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5YP3viFTfE
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeivfcD7d9L
"Nothing, nothing," said Zoey as she went ahead to put the guitar on the nearest couch and smiled at Lee.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCa7DbP28nk
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GSfI7AoSc
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.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS6DR3OCkhe
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrE3zJatKch
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.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN0LrxBgG3k
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtVX7sUXLb
"Any news from the others yet?" she asked as she stood beside me.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzJtz2IW87
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhBQpb2MAL
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."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7eQUvAHJv6
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68UJNb7jdQ
"Bummer," she said as she went over to sit on the couch. Zoey soon joined her.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4cDK17CO5
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJ93VKRxcB
"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."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0NTHNfbir
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHtY8L3TRf
"I thought we agreed that we were all going to rest and then meet up," said Christine.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoPsoHbDEI3
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNlC7xO3SSy
"The sad part was I suggested we meet either today or tomorrow," I said.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡds2otujBG0
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUy9GqCSYKw
"I think I was the one who suggested that," said Lee as she winced.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZiWECa4HkT
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhqQWEWe9B
"Judging by Sam's phone that should have rang minutes ago, we're likely to meet tomorrow," said Zoey.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7D6nKmJKZ
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzVrc9fH8j0
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.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtndzw9EAYd
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSkUzArfVSM
"Ya, you're right," I said as I slumped my shoulders and lowered my phone. I sighed.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8VADR65ftr
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr0KHRCBkCa
"If these guys are taking a day off, don't you think we should as well?" Zoey asked.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVACpj8YzHY
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOLBLCk6vy
"No!" Christine, Lee and I said at the same time.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEoTn2wEUof
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvLh8rz6VWO
Zoey's face was one filled with disappointment. "I really wanted to go shopping."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeiqg8Eo5kS
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF2xR8hL9Sm
"If they won't come, we will work on the song ourselves," I said. "I'll just text them-"791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2641jP37u
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPvj4fjMd8Y
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.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkaK9h2kgMx
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMTNq3guIT
After pressing the send button, Lee asked, "was that Seunghoon?"791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqypyX1lFt
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKzIzG2Kcv
"Yep, and he said they aren't going to make it."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVOwd4UHh1
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDuKuuVAdsH
"Well, you saw this coming," said Zoey.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Kbe76q8Ge
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrp13bItHQ
"And you did well to stall the managers," said Lee. "That will give you some breathing space."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhk8CQRMfzs
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0JrzSOkYP
"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?"791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKonm7jZRi
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSINgww6U5
"I can go call them, they are in their room," said Lee.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqRDWLuK3d
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdMEDEfmhTg
She didn't even have to leave the lounge as Mike and Daniel soon appeared.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8MgmfhIWV
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwvlqXlHuB
"We're working on the song already?" Daniel asked. "Aren't we waiting for the others?"791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvd1toRiu9E
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW9fvdebeXW
"They won't make it today," said Zoey as I sat down.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQTwPhoMRw
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb5HxEQxAHB
"Mmm..., how come?" Mike asked, sounding puzzled.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNYPbrDn7jz
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhdDoKpTdUK
"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."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUwLRj47nk5
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡInhdOSOGh3
"Bummer," said Daniel as he came to sit right beside me.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ723nYVrm0y
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ZOQ6LNps9
"Not to worry, we can still make progress without them. Shall we begin?"791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98dY8B6uhq
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx6ZpBFMygv
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.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT90KK38QFR

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.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnVPzNxqQbd
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm5kLaihmKD
"Who's calling, Sam?" Daniel asked.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeTmRvyjRzI
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhtrAgrCMi
"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."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiTgb5QDOhP
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWAKbNG1ru2
"It's him, alright," I said as I took the phone and picked up the call. "Hey, GD."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjV3j6mVn3
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsp6f4L4pz
"Hi, I'm in the elevator right now coming to your floor. I'll be there in like 30 seconds."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMyearEh9n3
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdx24H2jJrz
"Wait, you're....," the line went dead. I stared at the phone.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo8Qql8252P
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡldXacTfT0o
"What is it?" Christine asked.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1rYAiZ1vM
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf0YZsqEkvj
We heard the sound of the elevator doors on our floor announcing the arrival of our visitor.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6xsOrrGYv
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9QYnFZLC1
"He's here," I said.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh14KNGQjNA
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡabn0EUJ8dQ
Lee who sat at the dining table, working, asked, "how come we were never informed at the reception of his arrival?"791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1izBQXwnIV
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3A1WTJr1d
"It's because I told them not to," came G-Dragon as he appeared in the lounge.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHrWtEGh3RH
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxHvwYNQSX
We turned to look at him. Somehow, I wasn't surprised that he was here.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHV8i9vfrme
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKnrfdZJIf
"Hello, everyone," he greeted as he came to where the five of us, sat.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ65t3EzoCkk
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE9Stp3W71S
Four of us, including Lee, replied to his greeting except Zoey who said, "how come you're here?"791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXMexwegmT
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhuWiXHDZE
"What's wrong with me being here?" he asked as he shrugged his shoulders.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCMFd97wCb
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WkOgRdrDV
"For someone who went partying last night, you seem pretty sober."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAcurePjkJM
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFCQURLLoh
"Oh.., how did the party go anyway?" Christine asked.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ79kPCJbIMz
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5MCpa2dGB
"It was great," he said with a happy grin.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8jVZewVaa
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC89jJQpRmJ
"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.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Darctuanj
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgvm5YB0tDK
"Normal?" Daniel suggested. Though he was only joking.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7vOXDnSkeo
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPEY1LZLMpG
"Wait, you think I'm not normal?" G-Dragon asked. He almost looked offended.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCY87yBypO
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jrOlNY4s2
"Nah, that's not the word, Daniel," said Mike. "It doesn't matter anyway."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHaGrwqXDVR
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLIrWXT0ntW
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.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLsClJ08oYQ
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaizvVJJ3HV
"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."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltUXvlSjHu
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLCZHSHvfXn
"Did you just say 'we?'" I asked as I raised my eyebrow at him.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zYm21YTjv
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu0rusO8l0R
"What?" he asked as if he hadn't heard my question. I felt like he did.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXFBJhKeKw
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf1iNYCLQMI
"You said 'we.' Who else were you with?"791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzSiLPuMWg8
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wSYYH1hGX
"Oh.., just friends, very close..., very good friends," he answered as he nodded his head.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjG8G2ysdTI
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN154wG8Xcp
"Okay," I said as I slowly nodded back. "I'm glad you had fun."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlSSJjsMBLh
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqX1TCUIGwO
"You guys should have come. It was amazing."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPcpEu5UBa
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1BGFy3HM8G
"Too late for that now, isn't it?" Christine asked.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KTH1qjTCw
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35K1qrgkf3
"Yep, too late. But you could still see the pics of how much fun we had."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4JZQ3Syag
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmEhsGguAna
"I bet there was plenty of booze too," said Zoey.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs6ocnPDozn
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83Mz0lItDy
"Plenty," said G-Dragon with a smile.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZTC43f37pg
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO7rpYGCdrg
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....791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMoyVsOzHp
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGHNfDesWr
"We can check the pics later," I said. "We have a song to write."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMYMwTQpFTz
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpEWJDvfRR7
"The others aren't here yet?" G-Dragon asked. "How can you work on the song without them?"791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDU48mP0zXk
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx8WJKueqA0
"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."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3yrYWj7B2Q
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUv6oHiHZ5r
"Oh. I think that's fair considering that they must be tired from the party."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRJZbuo7rI
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOZdtSyy6r
I looked at G-Dragon, and so did the rest of the Toxins.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8X6eAEWrZ
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtuaqxJSEFa
"They were with you at the party?" Daniel asked.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTDljwg1x5
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWzXIXU0ilv
"Huh....?" G-Dragon now looked like the confused one. "I thought you knew."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1BALDxtqF
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6GNBLqQ0UT
"How would we know when we were resting yesterday and we were completely off social media?" Christine asked.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0FqUY0lC63
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4MSMwHenR
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.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA7MFjLWJQn
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZUwhGn9XH
"You dragged them to the party, didn't you?" Zoey asked as she pointed a finger at him. "You're such a manipulator!"791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr2ksY7wRiR
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnGVqyTnVyG
"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."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9y5zbOu4N
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRka5P79fY
"I knew it!" Zoey said with a look on her face.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzM5O4DZooT
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMZRMVyKQp
"But ninety percent of the whole convincing thing was on the other guy."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7lMv4MDcZ2
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP6jx4Xo1kP
"The other guy?" Mike asked as he raised his eyebrows.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZn2VW6jiD
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcym1MvC87c
"Who's the other guy?" Christine asked.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3BDQwmSN8W
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZgt0pXIxF
I knew there was something fishy about G-Dragon's earlier statements. He didn't just go and party with "just" close friends.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMic4M1kKEs
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgL129G7k77
"Tell us," Zoey demanded when G-Dragon didn't speak.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWgZtYISTod
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhh1cfUuJS
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.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy170NeqSAy
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhQPP32tpD
"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."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5x7WV4uvA
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMgFpRHCF5
G-Dragon squeezed his eyes shut in fright. And just like that, we knew it was a big deal.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvnZlUeHoG
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLRVqenWPbW
"Goodness, just tell us, GD," I said. "We have a song to work on and you're just wasting our time."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9pOish1rnE
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡekOO9XBtAk
"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."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5M4QaYDyk1
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3RYRaqQzEt
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.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx10rmz8QNY
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBNAijdRSl
"GD, sit down, please," I instructed him and he did.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWeLCPe0pyK
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXzxNmJBign
"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."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡME2OtJZmIJ
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSaIkwpRKyi
"Okay, okay," G-Dragon surrendered. "I'll tell you."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDh08FrpmHb
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDJwTqSQbb
"First question," said Christine with her arms folded. "Who were you with downstairs when you left our floor yesterday?"791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLi7daYuRYY
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsB6b9RXgGL
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."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWbJTcKNxrQ
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasPUJA4rAy
"We will make sure to bury you in a lovely place, promise," said Mike. "Now, spill."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwhxUZFIz1
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ23ILUZ04Qz
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..."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8qlWskdzA
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4eFfOXoeF
"GD, we don't want to hear how you all met," I said, "we want a name. Who is the guy?"791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5LaBUTwLqp
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtpIg7YVmp
"It's..., it's..., Johnny," said G-Dragon. He immediately looked down at the floor.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQCsqkUHia
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwM5RDkssZ6
"Johnny Jerkins!" the five of us said at the same time.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67p0EF88ha
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZ2UxV6SPW
"Yes," G-Dragon as he slowly nodded his head, still facing downwards.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjSpN67aKRU
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbOgdFudf1H
Zoey fell onto the couch next to G-Dragon like she was about to pass out, her hand on her forehead.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpJRULscjHF
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtOcbR62wEJ
"I can't believe it" she said.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2fcruWBWs
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhoOl0M1czo
"That explains everything," I said, as I looked at a certain part of the wall above the couch, my mind far off.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNhVibLJQOS
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTEtz77LUtu
"No wonder they couldn't make it," said Daniel.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnUtqnvo6bV
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj2hXpPzvom
"They didn't just go to the party, they were hanging out with Johnny," said Mike.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3knXNg2HXY
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzFmDN1BIdP
"Ya...., you won't like what I am about to show you," said Lee behind us.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEGg4kLrpJk
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GYqVdkWhD
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.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFyJMZHd4c
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHgRhR5J1m1
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.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP3Sm4Vdfct
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6paKuUSUHh
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:791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNca8GMsh0
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8af0DY7lJ
"You guys had a party on a boat?" I looked at G-Dragon.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2nzbjL09BW
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH6ZlnRzSX5
"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.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpgB3JiZ8kW
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVGYfG3dTgW
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.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwkppBuKHxm
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWrDzlnWnWn
"You guys had such a good time," said Zoey. "I wish I came."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGzdfaZytt
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxrgbKG169
"You see, you guys should have tagged along," said G-Dragon.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubUAAF9tXC
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxpjUpyfKyv
"And hang out with Johnny? Heck no!" Zoey detested.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHs4IPE6pD
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQSdbXFEe1
"He seems pretty cool."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaDYnKiv6A5
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUUC2IpiAH
"That's because you only just met him," said Daniel.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrs9O0tM1d
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiSH7yQS7fC
"You won't be hanging out with him more often, will you?" Christine asked.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTO6fr2ILj5
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3HK26AX0E8
"Nah," G-Dragon denied. "I guess all that was just a one time thing."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfPak8qzVxy
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcV0rxXFhVK
"That's what they all say," said Zoey. I imagined her rolling her eyes when she said that.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡICRGr15CtA
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUkNN6znIV9
"And let's not forget, he's in this hotel," I said. "Avoiding him will be tricky."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZaSCSgHwX
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZXzZ4w93nx
"Don't you think maybe you guys are taking this thing a little too far?" G-Dragon asked.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYcqEQpN4C7
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQV2vm2wLBT
"What thing?" Christine asked. Her eyes were still fixed on the tablet as Lee continued to scroll.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoPs9lDgwdE
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0gkPEYIcrq
"This 'Johnny' thing?"791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Giyvu7Xm8
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡagBtRpDCZG
I looked up from the tablet at G-Dragon and I knew I wasn't the only one.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWRFKN5T101
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzarvm9fqS4
"Why would we?" I asked.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKiiqfZZLI
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHj3xKtL3b
"You talk about him as if he's your worst enemy."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡinXCq6bANn
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3ZApGpgTQ
"Look, we don't hate people, well, maybe some," said Mike. "It's just that some people aren't worth hanging out with."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡodHHUNh7WH
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDs1HPxigv
"Because of his actions back at school? Please, that was a long time ago."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaS5xmTQUNW
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPWpx6Ipthb
"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?"791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRWpzOdWq5
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTxZwQ6e2i
"How ironic," said G-Dragon as he stood up from the couch.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWn3ytTSvma
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUeLR5SrKF
"Leaving already?" Lee asked.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1NhgPnEfmI
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jXA3ohzqP
"Ya, I really should. Just came to check up on the progress with the song."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNU6IylxIJe
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP7Yf6LOlfe
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.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzyfl7mZLE
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5oUdD0Y0Hx
"I'll escort you to the elevator," I said as I stood up from the couch.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfx5VJS8Rz1
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3fQLkGCl56
"Ok," he said and he turned to address the others, "I'll see you guys later."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhxQacthMJb
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡISHKfScGSA
"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.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5a1TV51uJ
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7I9DKWCQS
G-Dragon made his way out of the lounge and I was right behind him.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpUMi4lQIun
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQ0izrI8Ol
"Well, you seem upset," I said to him when we were in the hall.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlftiGrkqsi
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZgubbC7BT
"No, I'm not," he said as he shrugged his shoulders.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzavVMAw1R
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrdh8LMIAce
I held his shoulder and he stopped walking, his back still facing me.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0LpoVRo54
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0dembStwZu
"I know when you're upset," I said as I dropped my hand. "I think the others know too."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzH2yBuUSBJ
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCCOi0r8aL6
He turned around to look at me. "I don't get you guys at all," he said.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw1k7Y68mye
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovwanEqi0g
"What do you mean?" I folded my arms.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxozdUu56aB
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVdAYrd9ER
"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."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbv58QQrfly
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTnii7J5DpD
"We aren't perfect, you know? We have our emotions too, whether good or bad."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlzeeXCdQq
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMd6S7wx5V
"But why hate on Johnny so much?"791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhm65TrTmHU
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZnKASghzrr
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."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtuetu8aXbP
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7IynEub2mU
"Really?"791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZocAM5uQR
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN0fuNo1kw5
"If we really did, we would have called him worse names than 'jerk' now, wouldn't we?"791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUOImQNOMD
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVKB7YohkX
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."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPd8YlaicZ9
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdSmU50fIt
I sighed as I dropped my arms. "Some people aren't worth mingling around with, Jiyong."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9YjcONy4uX
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDxehhrWKi
"Is there something you aren't telling me?" He raised his eyebrow at me and took a step closer.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAC2J11rfPf
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPW4SYRU8IM
I shrugged my shoulders. "Kind of," I answered. "You're yet to know everything in due time."791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrk2RJtRzGq
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxt4DS0zsJ
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.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡieIXKGcndA
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeTZBsFx0Lb
"Okay, I'll see you around, then," said G-Dragon as he managed to smile.791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVwV0Q1l1A
791Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kKdL60o0I
