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?765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFUglzlAC41
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6YzxeKyLl
I heard footsteps coming into the lounge and I turned to see Zoey approaching the table.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn3vMxQeZ6G
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gxkBheuOJ
"Morning, girls," she said as she drew out a chair next to mine and sat down with a bright smile on her face.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcwJxNZYJk2
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSYJx04Pll
"Morning," Christine and I answered at the same time.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvqRRtPWii4
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWKHBM3HtY
"You ladies look very bright this morning," she said as she took a plate and placed it in front of her.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBmy3Vg7Ef
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1pCdxk7u9r
"So do you," said Christine as she took another bite out of her french toast.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBjlJoEVuT
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdKq2E9b3d
"I guess the sleep we had really worked wonders," I said.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFK815MON91
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxATdsIivVS
"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?"765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRASSJ1mRTL
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQWUik4qeA
I smiled at her. "You've always looked pretty, Zoey."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgQ4j2j8Mi
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbSG8nbRyB
"Morning, people," said Mike as both him and Daniel appeared and came straight for the table.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmxKrsGXcc
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLvQaUqezV
"Morning," we answered him. I gave Daniel, a bright smile. He smiled back.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNNiqeYpzsg
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkYnQNr7zWP
"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.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4iTGh5LXvD
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhxNKLErLg
"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."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXEo2sqIvZ8
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujI2Y0ZrEJ
"Enough sleep is good for the body," said Daniel as he took the jug of orange juice.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxioNLN39HY
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBp0kDqInlJ
"Are we going to meet with the others today and finish up on the song?" Mike asked as he looked at me.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKQI854gYq
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKzZTWqg9n
"I haven't communicated with either of the two groups yet," I said.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ24lRsfUD6f
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb0X5YY2NvF
"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."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKZTXXnVXe
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4SJHUu7yCg
"Really, that's all you can think about?" Christine asked.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhALQsEM01
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KAHXg7w0p
"Well..., I guess we were all tired and needed a break. Besides, last night was quite fun."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV5Rx1e5sH3
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWByEcp2ZF9
"Tell me about it," said Daniel as he held a slice of toast and took a bite.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhJTK9owYn
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVt2RDrUKlH
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.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTjctaYTu96
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRGUSaGZ9eo
"We should have more sleeping hours, don't you think?" Mike asked.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvW7tO44iA
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIS4C6aBkea
"With what we are working on right now, I doubt it," I said. "Maybe after we finally head back home."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3PHLS9Wpst
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5jkdkGCY1P
"This album is going to kill us," said Zoey as she leaned her head back and looked up at the ceiling in frustration.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHUgIB24w2M
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIBnS6vDJy2
"You have to check up on these guys and ask if we're going to meet," said Christine as she looked at me.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1MR2Ybah0b
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu94aZPSPzr
"After breakfast," I said. I took a sip of my juice.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR8dXPGWMwk
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRX31qbYEy0
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.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6gUMxWypR
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxLbYnWQ2Wi
"All I am saying is," she said, "if Daniel wasn't so lucky, I would have won that game."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLfHknRQmNY
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxHjnlztJ1A
"Too bad you got eaten by the snake towards the end," said Daniel as he smiled at Zoey.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM5EwaZTnRN
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVUswIJojb
"Sometimes I think you cheat."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGnI0Rmmpe
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFyWChyI84Y
"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."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzycStpVRBq
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2gtLd1Lbk
"Morning," said Collins as he and Lee came towards us. "I see Zoey still hasn't gotten over that snakes and ladders game."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3U0bqOlfXv
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡecT8DvgXru
Zoey looked down at her empty plate, not daring to look up at Collins. "Not really," she said.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjhYgHv7lBH
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡitRaiZ97Fy
"Will all of BTW be meeting today to continue working on the song?" Collins asked as he looked at me.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1eegtGRu13
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOsbiucFkD
"I have to communicate with them and see if it's possible," I answered.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKLkc53Tu0u
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTRsuXsiKyo
"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."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPiUjFXePz
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNxTt7BVZfv
"I better go give them a call, then."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPGj8bxqWv
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5qxUWNUqLS
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.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw9C3kOxIUl
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡub450wqHfp
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.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQji9Z8PpT
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7IUcpMLM5
"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.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCL0SFECsL
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH67FhJyGFk
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.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDheQMYHGEA
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO94zk8U2pw
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.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3a1sKskw3n
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4mmsIfKnPA
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?765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw9LThlSf0b
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtgePcckm6
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.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq33lExKnVW
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ40nTKF4a5Y
"Hello?" Seunghoon answered. He sounded sleepy.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvwehBf2tPc
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhHCWxsYNxT
"Seunghoon? Hey, are you still asleep?" I asked.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWecnehvqaX
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfWOAAMcbb5
"Sam?" he sounded surprised and more awake. "Oh, I didn't notice it was you."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1JEuFaNv8I
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqj8pARPyY
"Are you guys coming to meet us here at the hotel? We have a song to work on, remember?"765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGLVvdsGTm
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy14RJRsRIr
"Oh, oh, ya, we do..., ummm, eish.....," I heard him mutter something in Korean. "You said we can meet either today or tomorrow, right?"765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8eGE6GgQF
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSuWecX1MmD
"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."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrEs2dgZYR2
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHVl3Mkpl9Y
"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."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGDyswh6bte
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡddZEXJWFdg
"Ya, sure."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5vPu1UJUw
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0IoBhXTo4j
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.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3ZtHQiNIZ
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9wMPwkwP1y
The door to the room flew open and Zoey came in.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHFGjxhLwa
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfcKbOi5mv
"Anything?" Zoey asked.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcjUAPz0Qmy
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtjDOp2qvgi
"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."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9EAi8VCSju
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHRjFeXSUde
"Okay, well, we can wait."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmx2Hox3ILo
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUaooXKyOgx
"Maybe we should cancel and meet tomorrow. Seunghoon was still asleep when I called."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5RLefvoUE
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUGlm4sA2H
"We could, but Yang Hyun-suk wants to hear the song tomorrow."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYCYiLuMEP
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8k3U2Ruce
"We can tell Collins to tell him that he will have to wait a little longer."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ndGsPrRZ0
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4ywGJKV1Q
"Geez, this is Yang Hyun-suk we're talking about. He wouldn't like taking orders from a missy like you."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmviS7Uav2b
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgvKltRC1nN
I shrugged my shoulders. "It's just a suggestion, not an order."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbzek52rt7k
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDpFD6nzhjY
"Ooh, you know what I mean," she said irritatingly.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJaAdI2HNfp
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlUUmUMNHYt
"We can't work on the song without them."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOnGWcMFPAX
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEEgDiRqbf9
"True, but you started to work on the song way before we all met yesterday. You're a good songwriter after all."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0ztLfyea7
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVWc1G6vjAB
"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."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡngMqPOhjeh
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdacLNK0YvN
"Huh, funny. Collins was talking about it with Lee just now. You two seem to think alike."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvOagK5iMc
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡin9e5vWtNv
"Yay, we will be working on one song," I said with less enthusiasm.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3okBBhYP1
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDOkXTcFMy
"Then get your guitar and notebook."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB5fDRJd09j
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc0aNfbbabW
"May you help me with my guitar?" I asked. "It's in the closet."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6pFX8c7kqQ
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTQiqqASyG
"Really? Why do I get to carry the heavy stuff for you?"765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeaZM5kpcRX
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdQRve7Rc0h
"I never let you carry any of my heavy stuff. And besides, the guitar isn't so heavy."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHqJFamT9Qj
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFcKDUb9hN8
"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.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVK6pHvdOvP
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz0Cl1uABg2
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.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9t7XyKKehs
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcc5V9YXbVD
"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.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWklEeeNhyG
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsDU4ZniPtP
"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.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvKaCe1oGvu
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdE3KRmwRn
"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?"765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuAxaviEp8F
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡot1beFDG21
"Am yet to receive a reply," I answered.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEeNqrOCDRk
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzmWPYvVzJB
"I hope all goes to plan," said Collins as he stood up. "Yang Hyun-suk is really looking forward to hearing the song."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjFpeLUcUVY
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVN3Mb46jjt
I gulped. Something told me it was best if the managers heard the song another day.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4HjXtarPQ
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVDRcbfIo0
"I actually think we need a little more time," I said to Collins.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Xs4BrbsW7
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdEOYiLAN58
"Really?" he raised his eyebrow at me.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPyqDqAX01
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡauFKrjqeag
I felt Zoey look at me. She knew what I was doing. I had no other choice but to stall.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2TYi24QPh
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXrETT6M348
"Yes, really," I answered.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJude5bdVu0
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEIzH1msIh0
"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."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLCfcxIdZY
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj9H0XoMP1N
I nodded my head. "It will be a great song, trust me."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYCqmnNY9j
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbdfmE2HI43
Collins smiled at Zoey and I, then left the lounge heading for the elevator. It looked like he was going out as always.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPpC9qFEEFE
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6afi8pNQ2Q
"Well, that went well," said Zoey after we were sure that Collins had gone.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkJBppUJj0
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQzNY4tYqF
"What went well?" Lee asked.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn0Ycn98muj
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0fgxL7bpb
"Nothing, nothing," said Zoey as she went ahead to put the guitar on the nearest couch and smiled at Lee.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5uwYT2KdNZ
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLbQwN1Owmr
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.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0wzMsqn38
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy2UJnVHHcF
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.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBiXDVcbf4v
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jjXkKThPR
"Any news from the others yet?" she asked as she stood beside me.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGoTbu58q5r
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCvPA7ywPaQ
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."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMWOL1Xh06
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4pPJ8TZOwJ
"Bummer," she said as she went over to sit on the couch. Zoey soon joined her.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡebgLTj5VOv
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEtCa4ztJzT
"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."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMvSMU0775
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnVtiNQJAJ3
"I thought we agreed that we were all going to rest and then meet up," said Christine.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsmy0JxOJMG
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEK8zMlL6Ax
"The sad part was I suggested we meet either today or tomorrow," I said.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOLy8SOwb1
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlPcjyjmeC
"I think I was the one who suggested that," said Lee as she winced.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHm4hgI5ZM
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsqgeh7dfTJ
"Judging by Sam's phone that should have rang minutes ago, we're likely to meet tomorrow," said Zoey.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsdOb5lPPlk
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6g1GMGKUn
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.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hUu0MQtcr
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHCqPQuW4dm
"Ya, you're right," I said as I slumped my shoulders and lowered my phone. I sighed.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPvG1PuzqNb
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZTkMqxvee
"If these guys are taking a day off, don't you think we should as well?" Zoey asked.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ihK8c0IIK
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAc3xtMvnIP
"No!" Christine, Lee and I said at the same time.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSC7OM5CDDv
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3fA41z19Fd
Zoey's face was one filled with disappointment. "I really wanted to go shopping."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡROKtfe59dc
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ12CaSHcAtM
"If they won't come, we will work on the song ourselves," I said. "I'll just text them-"765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpRmqwnE3WY
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenoDa7Nn29
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.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvsF6mQn0CR
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSTTpQn49qc
After pressing the send button, Lee asked, "was that Seunghoon?"765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBYLMAsyNxD
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8yMuAScuZk
"Yep, and he said they aren't going to make it."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb4F9S8m1ms
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2YTWWBYbHS
"Well, you saw this coming," said Zoey.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAk4yolKh8Q
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56bTdhkLS2
"And you did well to stall the managers," said Lee. "That will give you some breathing space."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl2I9fiMdd5
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpisEuNZbDR
"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?"765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspdDV1Qf5X
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4F0pXbOTw3
"I can go call them, they are in their room," said Lee.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZN2mbddQw
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXGqeRprx0
She didn't even have to leave the lounge as Mike and Daniel soon appeared.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZPhYwHQg2s
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd32xXPfDbZ
"We're working on the song already?" Daniel asked. "Aren't we waiting for the others?"765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXfeZTA0X6
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6HqvWsfvhV
"They won't make it today," said Zoey as I sat down.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsauXiVRZh
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4yvS1NGmEJ
"Mmm..., how come?" Mike asked, sounding puzzled.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHaMmOiXbpm
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZOzIB20IS
"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."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSkxo9G4FF
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSk2mQtubE3
"Bummer," said Daniel as he came to sit right beside me.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8NtWzwkREB
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsmBB8Pmwbp
"Not to worry, we can still make progress without them. Shall we begin?"765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkcUYhXzAiZ
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcl9U5cSOko
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.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNHziFnnne

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.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOoPOqOpxRj
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQc8eIw7iWS
"Who's calling, Sam?" Daniel asked.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7q8xnUHV7
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaSOIp0ebfu
"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."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9A7O5jZa2
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpqn2GPhLx
"It's him, alright," I said as I took the phone and picked up the call. "Hey, GD."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1jFXUoBRn
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ8rLNZccWq
"Hi, I'm in the elevator right now coming to your floor. I'll be there in like 30 seconds."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ2nqUd4j0i
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqXVqhlFkxm
"Wait, you're....," the line went dead. I stared at the phone.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpk0qLNu4w
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVmuZr3zXOo
"What is it?" Christine asked.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKsza2nvum
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9zZmrNdELF
We heard the sound of the elevator doors on our floor announcing the arrival of our visitor.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0FIlqofTx8
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQgvLEx6RjY
"He's here," I said.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxY5PMyMWZ
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuo4O1mVYn1
Lee who sat at the dining table, working, asked, "how come we were never informed at the reception of his arrival?"765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8HdD1BYD6S
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtMzRKiEyi
"It's because I told them not to," came G-Dragon as he appeared in the lounge.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vqnTrMd3s
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNafxrbKVP
We turned to look at him. Somehow, I wasn't surprised that he was here.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFcWhItLq4U
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrg6o3Fl2g
"Hello, everyone," he greeted as he came to where the five of us, sat.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDgpyx8uyb8
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBva7M5v9Xv
Four of us, including Lee, replied to his greeting except Zoey who said, "how come you're here?"765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡplJIc3YmM2
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXVpBemKVm2
"What's wrong with me being here?" he asked as he shrugged his shoulders.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsRWs25dLL
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxv0taq99Vp
"For someone who went partying last night, you seem pretty sober."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9AWgCU52hJ
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZTEwibMJ6
"Oh.., how did the party go anyway?" Christine asked.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCURolA52df
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbGB9LbIi2
"It was great," he said with a happy grin.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZtLPNP73VZ
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTy1FTvKQem
"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.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxcyfvUXdyK
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4eh9YkUdcm
"Normal?" Daniel suggested. Though he was only joking.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxUfb1yVRg
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXeqlh3BwEq
"Wait, you think I'm not normal?" G-Dragon asked. He almost looked offended.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW56MlfFTcD
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefHt8bc7Fv
"Nah, that's not the word, Daniel," said Mike. "It doesn't matter anyway."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpTbioholDq
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2nbJAPECq
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.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXb7usJXKCk
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXMoqU2nlU
"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."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzeuR1TXH1q
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRMFKawix4
"Did you just say 'we?'" I asked as I raised my eyebrow at him.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUrXaoKRaj
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDaKhbZ9vTq
"What?" he asked as if he hadn't heard my question. I felt like he did.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbke8ag62k
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ocpszoCtH
"You said 'we.' Who else were you with?"765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvlgZLv6nK
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSnEW8eHNkO
"Oh.., just friends, very close..., very good friends," he answered as he nodded his head.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUlcxgpkiBZ
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHskbLpZBr
"Okay," I said as I slowly nodded back. "I'm glad you had fun."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0krPQak42e
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjg1gowmiSD
"You guys should have come. It was amazing."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVuEeHGctHg
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ehKPkIvZd
"Too late for that now, isn't it?" Christine asked.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNNrACrKFgf
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFyOIKQKZQH
"Yep, too late. But you could still see the pics of how much fun we had."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUxtucyooLu
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtulIzAkr4t
"I bet there was plenty of booze too," said Zoey.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKYQMHvSu6Q
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPInZehdm5
"Plenty," said G-Dragon with a smile.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ZjK0Z80Nv
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShaWFKHQsV
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....765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd3UNL2ANvT
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiWUqqZITtj
"We can check the pics later," I said. "We have a song to write."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmEOLeN8qAM
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJAEi8VnNyJ
"The others aren't here yet?" G-Dragon asked. "How can you work on the song without them?"765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQMGqkfpdg
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVxLFywlhS
"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."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWndXlfsEr
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8vq0XlgI3
"Oh. I think that's fair considering that they must be tired from the party."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ901QsUucp7
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNUZJsHqK0K
I looked at G-Dragon, and so did the rest of the Toxins.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXeJ9476IoO
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSaT1uPRKr7
"They were with you at the party?" Daniel asked.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgH45DMJWFt
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGzMwJ0rrs
"Huh....?" G-Dragon now looked like the confused one. "I thought you knew."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNCyJiKtUC
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDAsaO1PIl6
"How would we know when we were resting yesterday and we were completely off social media?" Christine asked.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7uRs9sj6J
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNz6pgaktJi
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.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHr6d3FXeXQ
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfMNRvdNhe
"You dragged them to the party, didn't you?" Zoey asked as she pointed a finger at him. "You're such a manipulator!"765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZewNu2u6Q0
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoM9BydYGvz
"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."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAAoXtO6nAP
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx087SaurLr
"I knew it!" Zoey said with a look on her face.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLPDleAhjz
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXCdbJKiiS
"But ninety percent of the whole convincing thing was on the other guy."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUvMtBDvTH
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfEkAuxhZSl
"The other guy?" Mike asked as he raised his eyebrows.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxkiDU1YBx
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0cAv2PNChm
"Who's the other guy?" Christine asked.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6kTnORO168
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRWA6YuMMD
I knew there was something fishy about G-Dragon's earlier statements. He didn't just go and party with "just" close friends.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BhZxiZ9s5
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu2PyAFP8GD
"Tell us," Zoey demanded when G-Dragon didn't speak.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaFSUZgFheq
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUuxRP309cI
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.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0trplY2L5U
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqP8HV4nXm
"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."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKyBxYU82M
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8RxlXvVvk
G-Dragon squeezed his eyes shut in fright. And just like that, we knew it was a big deal.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqtw3UW9qCm
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLeWrBnqgIP
"Goodness, just tell us, GD," I said. "We have a song to work on and you're just wasting our time."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDxJrbGG5kJ
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7vfWwPqczj
"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."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEkANtlJ27m
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZTVj67mXzx
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.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW3UbhyswWT
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWunDMm3ykn
"GD, sit down, please," I instructed him and he did.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLeE2PIXRT
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwt8bOkBgyG
"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."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGkzhG2rw9
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡouGJVcByGo
"Okay, okay," G-Dragon surrendered. "I'll tell you."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuu59aeDylt
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2xXVWZAUb
"First question," said Christine with her arms folded. "Who were you with downstairs when you left our floor yesterday?"765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0FyJ37spP
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡABAqHRyU16
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."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBXJYRRRxyk
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmnQC6kYwS
"We will make sure to bury you in a lovely place, promise," said Mike. "Now, spill."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSneeylo3C8
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ03PTIgGkrg
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..."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2jGAgDPRRz
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ21fZ1bUbyT
"GD, we don't want to hear how you all met," I said, "we want a name. Who is the guy?"765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJ9WvcZtrD
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZevoWTb02
"It's..., it's..., Johnny," said G-Dragon. He immediately looked down at the floor.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGzU39gfgo
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOSO7NChGAD
"Johnny Jerkins!" the five of us said at the same time.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡncQc1EUC3p
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4EwqqUo247
"Yes," G-Dragon as he slowly nodded his head, still facing downwards.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnkpzC3W7a
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQccQUOVc6
Zoey fell onto the couch next to G-Dragon like she was about to pass out, her hand on her forehead.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYlJFwglYGy
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLdpMVULFWn
"I can't believe it" she said.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4fWIqpawP
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZPI7K1QF8
"That explains everything," I said, as I looked at a certain part of the wall above the couch, my mind far off.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG126K3V5Sw
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCHp5gBWXk
"No wonder they couldn't make it," said Daniel.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPULGOuajVC
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLRP5gGmZn
"They didn't just go to the party, they were hanging out with Johnny," said Mike.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvvzrvK73I
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyoynCSYf1m
"Ya...., you won't like what I am about to show you," said Lee behind us.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4sGjROohM
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kkBY5wUAf
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.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezC2J7Xi3S
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHk8baPsghR
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.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkwXSGRFP2Q
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQGd2rEmdL
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:765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSsYyCuD7nQ
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4fsoLAJa9
"You guys had a party on a boat?" I looked at G-Dragon.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0TNVyjHtft
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuBMMyyXDB3
"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.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJvrSkfKx0
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKkw5LkUisG
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.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJRnlM2bjy
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8eYiPDCFQW
"You guys had such a good time," said Zoey. "I wish I came."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQeNkygh76
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUoB05m6BJ6
"You see, you guys should have tagged along," said G-Dragon.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQBrREnp58
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbM72Xhb1l3
"And hang out with Johnny? Heck no!" Zoey detested.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZV9wErEHyT
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfg1d3AWYxu
"He seems pretty cool."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9QY72RkV0S
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ud9TH17Ox
"That's because you only just met him," said Daniel.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLDnL1Sl39d
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3c9LENy7P6
"You won't be hanging out with him more often, will you?" Christine asked.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNM30qZvttv
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0GlAZnOzF
"Nah," G-Dragon denied. "I guess all that was just a one time thing."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaY179HVvY2
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx6Y0tu4kDp
"That's what they all say," said Zoey. I imagined her rolling her eyes when she said that.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5n0uQNVcnB
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60cCOgCtd8
"And let's not forget, he's in this hotel," I said. "Avoiding him will be tricky."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeNdIveNRnQ
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBuBH9vOqSJ
"Don't you think maybe you guys are taking this thing a little too far?" G-Dragon asked.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmhidfoGJS
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH3f8JqMZll
"What thing?" Christine asked. Her eyes were still fixed on the tablet as Lee continued to scroll.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCASQXNG7s
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb7x0t2o1Ud
"This 'Johnny' thing?"765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmemTSL60n
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUbXSvwY1WR
I looked up from the tablet at G-Dragon and I knew I wasn't the only one.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3FD5htz0MA
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP6Je0Rmwc9
"Why would we?" I asked.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcG9snGmdRd
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8nbofaWj4
"You talk about him as if he's your worst enemy."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnvj7RVvm9k
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5qNlWPFwOJ
"Look, we don't hate people, well, maybe some," said Mike. "It's just that some people aren't worth hanging out with."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRk0eLSGvmP
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuzzATzC9JL
"Because of his actions back at school? Please, that was a long time ago."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdgYf0MO2X
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7gPo4mJwQi
"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?"765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxIRclvgXN
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuqSxJGViyh
"How ironic," said G-Dragon as he stood up from the couch.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPb20mW9cVL
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZrBHF9y0x
"Leaving already?" Lee asked.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡywbFY9qR9v
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHMXvRUHU8
"Ya, I really should. Just came to check up on the progress with the song."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlUWEJY3RC6
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDEZsPejsI
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.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6uKCEXbWi
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQOxJgVCvj
"I'll escort you to the elevator," I said as I stood up from the couch.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4SEX00P9lc
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7P6ZSzGQA3
"Ok," he said and he turned to address the others, "I'll see you guys later."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdDT49fO66
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRipW31KrFx
"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.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GXilOYnSf
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5yWTILe3mY
G-Dragon made his way out of the lounge and I was right behind him.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡakq527Lrfn
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSe8tVBLBgR
"Well, you seem upset," I said to him when we were in the hall.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjX4OLa27oJ
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAacE8CQwOy
"No, I'm not," he said as he shrugged his shoulders.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPvQhMK4q1G
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDm3cfKr4Fl
I held his shoulder and he stopped walking, his back still facing me.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5gkvDcgs06
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkKxXvnzqB
"I know when you're upset," I said as I dropped my hand. "I think the others know too."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmAdEGfjvs
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiO0JkqBwku
He turned around to look at me. "I don't get you guys at all," he said.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQ5o3Xaip2
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7R3PDq7zlR
"What do you mean?" I folded my arms.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMQFR18ZtR
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡevPibAsZzf
"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."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGIC71WRCD9
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTK3xkLte4
"We aren't perfect, you know? We have our emotions too, whether good or bad."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzNlFjx1bj1
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLorynEmeCD
"But why hate on Johnny so much?"765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUfMIekq6zu
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG3bKKooUD8
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."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmRExtKwY5L
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8zdZNhX3EU
"Really?"765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWE1ThoAtrr
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuknj84uvc7
"If we really did, we would have called him worse names than 'jerk' now, wouldn't we?"765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG6k6CScI8v
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkpPSgJ074
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."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡekdpWIjdDL
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiho6abxziC
I sighed as I dropped my arms. "Some people aren't worth mingling around with, Jiyong."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL6RzvwWk4w
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3AlT6ROv0q
"Is there something you aren't telling me?" He raised his eyebrow at me and took a step closer.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9mWRH9QRr
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDdTuykrLRS
I shrugged my shoulders. "Kind of," I answered. "You're yet to know everything in due time."765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1A4rhVRsvd
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJRuvV7lPN
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.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJlkucg5C2
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59mO7VrJU3
"Okay, I'll see you around, then," said G-Dragon as he managed to smile.765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbfAXbWD1tJ
765Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtUXnH4FWfq
