"Okay, so here are the lyrics for the song," I said after writing them down.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTHpkvzCA0S
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6cfiddFdo
Everyone's attention automatically turned to me. They all fell silent. I read out the lyrics first then sang them out.
"So, what do you think?" I asked, addressing the question towards BAP.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLVXfVZRpf
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQaKXi7vL8
"Just admit it," said Zoey, "the song is awesome."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkYVmb0ROQ
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAh56w9bYmz
"Zoey." Christine gave her a look that told her to keep quiet. "Let the others take it in first."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2o6Vj6OtTh
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ39ZHKcnGZF
"Zoey's right," said Daehyun. "The lyrics are great."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkBpyu1LdOy
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Dpx8DnKjw
"I now get what Daniel said," said Zelo, "the song is meant to be sad, but it's fun to sing. You can hear it with the way Sam sang it out."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSVNlnFmHC
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrGUZZNZf45
"You should listen to the tune," said Mike. "You'll love it."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbx0SKvpLAF
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkBaTdhDFIy
"I bet that's why you went searching for the guitar," said Jongup as he looked at me.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuoOETJwygR
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTONcbLt6Sc
"Play the guitar, Sam," Himchan insisted. "We're all dying to hear it. I bet Yong-guk can't wait any longer."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfQK8DNyYv
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡunf8npDGUy
"Huh?" Yong-guk looked at Himchan beside him, looking confused. "No, I'm not."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKH2KAnB8uY
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4kCZvqRIz
"Of course you are," said Yong-nam as he gave his brother a raised eyebrow. "Don't forget, I'm your twin."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKCtcp8pJC
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡglHKLpunRC
"Okay," I said as I took the guitar that had been laying on the table the whole time. "Let me play it, then."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2eBDLb3l9a
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyhzCp2TcNX
I positioned the guitar properly before me with my crossed legs supporting it. Before I started to strum the strings, I took in a deep breath. I played out the tune first. Afterwards, I started to sing out the chorus. It wasn't long so it ended sooner than expected.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRa8KmfdMTR
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc2gKf82Fdo
"Wow," said Young-jae, looking at me like he's just seen something's dazzled him. "The song's going to sound awesome."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUPeqTh8Y8
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSD3KjNiAyC
"Thanks," I said. "Oh, before I forget," I reached out for the pencil on the table and started to write something down. "We also worked on the first verse, but we couldn't finish it up yesterday. We were having a little trouble with the words so we want to see what you guys think."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡom4jfnIQBx
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwrplEhamXx
"Alright," said Yong-guk, looking to see what I was writing on the paper. "Whatever it is, I bet we can handle it."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1HJfMzwcg
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGBArgEYfO
"Can't wait to see you try," said Christine. "But then again, if it's you two l'm not worried."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVImJCS2hW8
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBpBBaeYyUI
"There you go again, Christine," I said after writing down the lyrics. "Okay, here we are." I laid down the pencil aside on the table.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0HMBzEURTy
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkY6vCCGVJ8
I felt Jongup lean closer so as to see what I had written. I leaned to the side a little, but his blond hair almost covered my face. I couldn't help but take a sniff. His hair smelt really nice. Well, this seems unusual. I tried to lean away further so as not to smell him.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKz8vH6HH0L
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9hJYs8mFio
"Come on, Jongup," Zelo complained. "You're distracting Sam. We all want to hear what she has written."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrUWkzJ6To
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ58ynZRT4R9
"I don't think that I'm distracting her," said Jongup as he looked at Zelo. "Right, Sam?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh9xVNpzWfy
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSj8NIjxqoQ
It's when he turned his head to look at me that I yelped and leaned back further than before, almost falling to the floor. Instead, I ended up leaning on Yong-nam.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQgiP0wGnB
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxPkql54R46
Jongup looked at me with a puzzled look on his face. It's either he didn't know what he was about to do or he knew and was just playing dumb.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5hfb2zN2ZF
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMB1LGBlz9Z
"What's wrong, Sam?" he asked.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNrX9aYLeK
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKPoKGKk0U
I suddenly blushed. He really didn't know that he had almost planted a kiss on me. Anyway, it's best not to tell him. I hope the others hadn't noticed.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoptBYrY5aT
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7I9Any4bn9
"Goodness, Jongup," said Mike, "you almost kissed my sister."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHlWgM0TXqX
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQSRqtWTw4
And it just had to be Mike. Goodness, me!570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARpDEHedik
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXaYLEtZRLu
"Huh?" Jongup looked surprised. "I did?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXtMCdCaHQ
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHywULsStpE
"And you were this close," said Zoey indicating a tiny space with her index finger and thumb.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtelBXswqne
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdWjo8N2nG
"Oh...," Jongup turned to look at me. I was still leaning onto Yong-nam's shoulder. "I'm so sorry, Sam. Maybe I shouldn't have leaned in too close."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡin8zr5evSP
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBSD0rhPBqX
"You see, I told you so," said Zelo.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhkGT9lWRAz
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3CgJqqAZuQ
"No, I'm okay," I said as I sat upright. "Sorry for leaning on you like that, Yong-nam. I hope I'm not too heavy."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOW3LZnXla
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhach1XoSdG
Yong-nam cleared his throat. "Not at all," he answered. "You're actually pretty light."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUCHoZHMepU
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8Nb7gjl7x
I nervously laughed, not sure whether he meant it or not.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTpXajp1ins
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCdZ6Tp0rLk
"Wow," said Zoey as she delightfully clapped her hands together. "First Sam avoids Jongup from kissing her and then she leans onto Yong-nam who prevents her from falling. So sweet."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ726SRTTB2
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhwl6rcF749
"You're such a fantasist, Zoey," said Daniel as he shook his head.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtSsXilF91E
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW30S4P9WKe
"Don't mind her," I said. "Can we forget the kissing incident and focus on the song, please?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbGQeR3LZ1D
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyIEVNMwRN
"Sure," said Mike. "That's if we can reset Zoey's brain or else she won't stop talking about it."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8NzOArlnUF
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHfV03UFQQQ
"Are you saying that I'm kookoo?" Zoey asked, looking at Mike.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7QYd5wC6J
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfxtsFNwPcU
"You can argue later, you two," I said, giving them a look. "Let's try and focus."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyiD8ysruvu
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4YfL20qJ3i
I went back to looking at the paper in front of me and read out the lyrics for them. Just like we did with BAP's song, we started coming up with lyrics. But this time, it proved to be a lot difficult than we expected. Whatever we came up with didn't really fit with the song.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwhgFAoz6pc
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0u1lRTboJN
"Is it just me or something's just off?" Young-jae asked.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6AZHN675HG
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfiGxKLSHZ
"I think I feel what you mean," said Zoey as she scratched her head.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFsecTcuxZ
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxIUpPQdaYV
"Huh? What's Zoey saying?" Himchan asked.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqzZgW5sQS
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz1qb5aUXCd
"I told you we should've rewired her brain a little," said Mike as he turned to look at me. I shook my head. Zoey on the other hand, ignored him. That's so unlike her.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIiM5Zp1ILd
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAAEcPSPG7t
"I feel we aren't working like we did the first time," said Christine.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEPtRTcIIAb
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJgVQ7dSme
"Ya, that's what I meant," said Zoey.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAtWNyUJhal
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmIuY4h7ttq
"We just aren't coming up with the right lyrics," said Yong-guk, "that's all."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZaiZMxVTqx
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1qMokDFi3J
"Why is that?" Himchan asked.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf2zTbjxQOn
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQsTNvuWWZ
"Who knows," said Daniel. "What do you think, Sam?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0wzI36Ct9
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhuv5nT4ziX
I shrugged my shoulders as I also couldn't figure out why we found it so difficult. I scratched the back of my head and pouted my lip a little.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQoLJ2Jbxwp
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNHoGFRoQgR
"You look like you're about to cry, Sam," said Jongup.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKXjKN2bYV
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy41qRrLDHj
"Don't mind me," I said. "I'm frustrated that we're going nowhere."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuEBU6GsPM3
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSSKd7GAHF
"Maybe we're all just tired," said Zelo.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2VbFfOMCS
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQO4OeDOFm
"I felt we rested enough," said Daehyun.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3UlNhfWld
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc17zgmc4t7
"Or maybe we've been in the same place for too long," I suggested. "Sometimes the environment contributes greatly."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXju8D7EVvU
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvqHC1rlBS
"Maybe," said Yong-guk.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSToU6TJ1E
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyMR56M5i0
"What do you think, Yong-nam?" Christine asked as she turned to look at him.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWzEl9QcCuJ
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqBWhKXxCFf
He raised his arms up to stretch. As soon as he put them down, he said, "I think we're all just tired. We exhausted ourselves working on BAP's piece and thought we would do the same with this one. If you ask me, we should just call it a day and continue tomorrow."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9LKxs0f5MX
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7sgeutwC4N
"Tomorrow?" Daniel looked shocked at the idea. "Won't that be a little too late for us?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGzkl4xxBl
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9nTacKf6K
"You're right," I said as I slapped my forehead. "We've to meet the songwriters and composers for the album. We won't have enough time."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn4BafmNSQd
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2B0hMpSaFb
"Not forgetting that we should at least have something to present to Yang Hyun-suk," said Zoey.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPyTFzR0Mo
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgHhatLgEqu
"I told Collins to buy me more time, but I doubt Yang Hyun-suk will even want to hear it. Goodness, just thinking about it feels overwhelming." I buried my face into my hands.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ09au1xGBN4
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyhi8HZRRrM
"Now I wish we never had to make an album," said Zoey as she leaned back on the chair and sighed.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWqXQ88tc3j
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB64abfqP1h
"Wow, you guys are working on an album?" Jongup asked.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcKhmYplAH
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzRuZ9ijL4
"Yep," I answered as I lifted my face up from my hands. "Our managers are ambitious."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1UYVC1xoA
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9AU3nILL93
"At least we don't have to worry about the other songs," said Zoey.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpobiEGDfOv
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcT6OUzhVY
"But you heard what Collins said this morning, Zoey. This one has to be awesome. But the way we're so exhausted, I feel we aren't going anywhere."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3gSjmYmWm
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAR3DVTqQpn
"I think we should take a little break," said Yong-nam.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBxJ982vPDy
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmeyG4dCwVg
I went back first onto the floor with my eyes closed. I really did feel exhausted. Why did fatigue have to settle in like this?570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DytWvdOUK
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJFbiY2DTFb
"You're scaring me, Sam," I heard Yong-guk say.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYweugYeCQP
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5YtpXBGujq
"Oh, don't mind her," said Zoey. "She started this and finding a way to finish it is frustrating."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYV8b8yq3yc
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBsRTctPNE
I smiled a little at what Zoey said. Starting something and not finishing it really is frustrating, especially if it involves something that you really love to do. And with time ticking by, Yang Hyun-suk and Collins will have no choice but to be disappointed tomorrow.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cGuSbSJzD
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJKQY2uOqii
"Wait..., does this mean we won't have the reward Lee was talking about?" I heard Daniel ask.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGixYWqLNM
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PdaiS9mZs
I opened my eyes as I remembered Daesung's invitation. I really wish I could tell them the truth, but I held my tongue. Even if we leave this place without much progress, Lee won't hold us back because it isn't much of a reward, but an invitation to go out for an outdoor movie. I sat up.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqrrDKmUEm
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkGh4iLoUhO
"Don't worry about that, Daniel," I said. "Lee will give us that reward."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡml7JmgOF4n
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxTGfYew0M
"For someone who seems tired, you sound pretty confident," said Himchan.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyPhy0OfbJH
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWvVVPZYz6P
"I just know." I smiled at him as I shrugged my shoulders.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKydFy8FfG4
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOeN2lALduw
"Do you've any idea what it could be?" Daniel asked.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlSgP5OiOFQ
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQiiSa0ZkX
I shook my head. It's best it turns out as a surprise.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAn1Py8p6zQ
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6cDZnyEwG1
"So, what are we going to do now?" Zelo asked. "Just sit and do nothing?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGzh8Z6Us7N
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡko573M0IOj
"We can do something fun to pass the time," Christine suggested.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNZAAZKbH1
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL34rdoHMYt
"Not me," I went back to lying down on the floor.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzawIxuAeaE
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1whxfj7O1
No one said a word. I could feel a few eyes on me, while others, I'm guessing, gave each other looks.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfD00BOxQPn
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSkWTWEkCf
"Come on, Sam," said Zoey. "You're such a party pooper."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHzSSzC2SnH
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtNpBK2uLD
"Haven't heard you call me that in a while," I said as I smiled at the ceiling.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1m3qLZlhpO
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi66TZe2X1A
"Get up, will you? This is no time to be lying down."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ36RaF33x0z
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26Cp8VmJpX
"There's nothing wrong with lying down to rest, is there?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFlB6p46e4C
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4XVaT8LfNH
"Goodness, me." Zoey sounded frustrated. She couldn't argue over that and she knew it.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBun6Tlfwwe
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2evdI03Bu9
"Maybe we should call Lee to pick us up," Mike suggested.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdo8HpEeKrd
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBROLEYjiuS
"Don't bother," I said as I closed my eyes. "With us not under her radar anymore she's probably doing something for herself right now."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6NTy0yRGih
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3k02XOAh4
I heard Zelo and Daehyun chuckle while I heard Christine and Zoey mutter out in frustration.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUhe5iAiwGP
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0F8udyqk3M
"Looks like you're stuck here with us until Lee comes to pick you up," I heard Yong-guk say.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3iNg3mCsJF
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhTs68DA2j
"But we can't sit here doing nothing," said Daniel. "Like Christine said, we better find something to do."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBrOe8K9eV
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJN7Kwf6A0
"You should be resting," I suggested, my eyes still closed.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRwaCKTANxz
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz6LmC0qDMt
"Well, we don't want to," said Zoey. I imagined her folding her arms and looking at me like she would at Mike when he got her angry.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz49xYCrxHf
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyzgZsytDHH
I smiled. "Suit yourself."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgm0zYQ2OpW
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznfVi7Xkc0
"No one wants to do karaoke in the recording booth?" Jongup suggested.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg2W2WVPqHh
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡokbocRZZSi
"I think we've done enough singing for one day," said Daehyun.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6SZj3sJsn
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsLtqanf2z8
"I agree," said Zoey.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNYA8ID1Dk
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdEEHLP4LlA
"If there's clearly nothing to do, then I think we should be resting like Sam's doing right now," said Yong-guk.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3oHC9n94XI
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7WNUJa1yFW
"I like your thinking," I said with my eyes closed. I raised my hand to give him a thumbs up.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCD9wiOMYT
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPi7JDPSfTn
"You songwriters all think the same," I heard Christine mutter.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMIcxC7whYj
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLEOujmu6xk
"I might not agree with all this," Mike started to say, "but I'm going through with Sam's idea. I'm just going to lean back on the couch a little."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2AOlSf0CsF
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8XUfHZxdAZ
"Huh? Not you too, Mike," said Zoey, sounding surprised.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡatN9SjNOYt
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvvuC5drlgM
"Quit it, Zoey." I heard him move on the couch, obviously putting himself in a more comfortable position. "There's nothing to do. Why not relax for a bit?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdfJ0dWjwF
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡENN0vanILm
"I shouldn't be surprised coming from you."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDcZC9irKO
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE9Fbjg6LpW
"Ya, ya, ya, Zoey. I'm the bad guy here. Doesn't matter now, does it?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOic5maAya
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMuIKAg94Ry
"Well, if there's nothing for you guys to do at the moment, then I'm going to work on something," said Yong-guk.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfdd7VctI0A
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDXHUHNNAy
"And what could that be?" Young-jae asked.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljmIvQALE3
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhy5R8HDDf
"Our song, of course."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRyVfHpb4L7
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwuYj3s1T9
"You go ahead and do that," I said.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXgZdJDeUV
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkBuetZQIZF
There came an awkward pause and I opened one eye to look at him.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv3Czz7EM2v
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZIVsEksZH
"You look surprised, Yong-guk," said Yong-nam. He took the words right out of my mouth.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlCFM1MRYf
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzy69Xdu07G
"I thought that would get Sam up from the floor since she seems to really like helping out," said Yong-guk.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHabLXbb8BD
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQdKpRJKVgg
"I'm drained," I said as I closed my one eye and placed my open palm under my head. "As exciting as it sounds, I'll pass."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfeyKcDFEMY
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TKJnN9BVZ
"Okay, then," said Yong-guk. "And you, Mike?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkGbXTJ3Qh
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡerRDhKROF9
"I'll pass too," said Mike.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGIIc5aKMK
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZD6vZRJvz
"Okay. I'll be by the console. Any of you guys want to join me?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3M0EiBlsm3
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6meyGbP4vi
"Well...," Zelo sounded hesitant and I heard a scratching sound across the table. I imagined he was scratching his head, wondering whether to go or not. "Me too," he finally said. "I don't feel like working on the song right now."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsmKrHAICLS
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2tp4pQln3
"I'm going to relax over here too," said Young-jae.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZKFD8iiKam
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiOv5a1Ephx
"What's up with everyone?" Yong-guk asked, sounding surprised.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2sSB6Mz6d3
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhydIVKrYJD
"Like Yong-nam said, we're tired," I said as I sat up. "The best thing to do right now is relax."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF5EatcleZ8
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXNUixmaHzX

"I was about to ask the same question," said Zoey with a sulky look on her face. 570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1iyrniwqmE
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBdlJ8fhqE
I shrugged. "At first I was, but right now, I need to relax a little before my brain explodes. Don't let me stop you from working on your song."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs64CS1nr7Y
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDYlaZgH7d
"Alright, then," said Yong-nam as he also slept on the floor. "Looks like I can also rest. Keeping your eyes on time can be tiring too."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqjwYlWce8I
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfP7GKwBHJT
"You of all people shouldn't even be sleeping," said Yong-guk.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXOJOkzZZJG
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbYJzz3QSaJ
I laughed. As much as I wanted to hear these two brothers argue, it ended there. I went back to sleeping on the floor.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMpRxlktjc
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwThyWaTK9W
"I'm going to join the relaxing spree too," said Jongup, as he pulled out his phone from his pocket and slept on the floor beside me.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqe2l53QdEd
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZiIZntoawj
"Looks like the majority wins," said Himchan as he chuckled.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡumMESQyYwx
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnOxw6odQzW
Zoey mourned in frustration. Even I could tell she's tired. She had no choice but to give in.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJDDb5DUTF
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1PRrzd96w
"Oh, man!" Daniel muttered out loud.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwkK08742W4
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWUoacppmFn
I lifted my head from the floor to see what Daniel's doing. He had his phone out too and tapping at it. He's probably playing a game.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbohnUXkzOl
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkhUyfAbXZw
"Sorry, guys," he said. He quickly looked up from his phone when he noticed people's eyes on him. "Playing a game over here."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdmzB7EvNy
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhkQdSsHYG
I shook my head at him as I put my head back on the floor. I looked beside me and saw Jongup on Instagram looking at cute cat videos. I turned the other side to see Yong-nam with his arm over his face, covering his eyes. He did seem just as tired as all of us. He did help come up with some lyrics, so no argument there.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUS9MoJ2G4Y
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3xsvcGCJW
I heard Zoey sigh and that brought a smile across my face. "I give up," she said. "I haven't been on Twitter lately. Time to see what's going on in the world."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5B6nAgnHcj
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLgTDYsOyn
"I think I'll have a little shut-eye," said Christine.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7o9sehA2wL
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13fyjMloce
Everyone seemed to be busy doing their own things now. I counted Jongup, Daniel, Young-jae and Zoey on their phones. Daehyun, Himchan and Zelo were engaged in a conversation. Even when Mike was resting on the couch, he seemed to be contributing whenever he can. Christine, Yong-nam and I were really the ones resting as we closed our eyes.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9RxLSOGsBu
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyX4Pdzn0go
I heard someone stand up and guessed it was Yong-guk. I could hear footsteps head towards the other side of the room where the recording booth and console were. He seemed serious with what he wanted to do. I continued to lay there on the floor, hoping that I don't fall asleep.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJuz8yvht0
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJkYlNEFM7S
I found myself slowly imagining about the outdoor movie we were going to watch. Will it be an oldies movie? I would love to watch such. It just sets you in the mood when it has to.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSTYDAkzD6M
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVp5cWcifJp
I heard Jongup chuckle to himself and I knew he's still on his cat videos. A thought crossed my mind. Here I am thinking of the outdoor movie when I should be thinking about the song. I don't feel like dwelling on it. Now is the time to relax, nothing more.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwwb5a8vPb
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjK1dm8UX1s
"Hey, Sam?" I heard Jongup call me. "Are you asleep?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGRW2iJjgq
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKpG92SkJQm
"No," I answered. I drew my eyes open and looked at him. "What is it?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡENWVkLsYJI
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5izmCZZgq
"Watch this," he said as he scooted closer that our heads nearly touched. He held his phone up for the two of us to see. We watched a cute cat video where a little white and brown kitten was chasing a movable toy mouse on the floor. It was cute and yet funny at the same time as the kitten tried so many times to capture it. Jongup and I laughed.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8RQMnFYu9
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU1lwM6aG0f
"Oh, my," I said as I wiped away the tears in my eyes. "The little kitten really struggled. But you've to admit, it's so cute."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYinaq7Kcye
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0MFx6eYUo
"I know," said Jongup. "You should see this previous one. It will knock your socks off."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6oiQbFWjg
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPG3KRZTgnJ
I joined Jongup in watching more cat videos. We soon moved on to watch people participate in various dance challenges.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZsoxv8mFjT
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhIFT8hk9K
"We should've a dance challenge one day," I said to Jongup as we watched.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4oY36fLpNx
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5BoRJaVPA
"Huh?" he turned to look at me. "We should've a dance challenge?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4wlpXHPA7R
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vYeY55yva
"Ya. I mean The Toxins vs BAP."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegRPg0vxmE
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtIEAKLw2EO
"Oh..., like the one you had with Monsta X?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1svMPS8YJE
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT65Fyn0wGN
"Yes, like that one. You watched it?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCka4zN0R74
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsV2ERgj8a
"I think a lot of us did. People really liked it."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacRnsSstkO
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYXXe5zSUrY
"Too bad we lost. But it was fun. We should've one one of these days. That's if we could even make the time for it."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0qTbPpAWtO
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy1qKYxVzwt
"Oh, you've an album to work on."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2xN17XmBR4
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdLklBqSG8B
I stared at the ceiling and sighed. "Just thinking about it drains me." I went back to looking at his phone.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPFOw8Vykp8
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2CRpsRzjCW
"Did I hear someone talk about having a dance challenge with BAP?" Zoey asked.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdhtTbIGPQ
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7qTBoHXYC
I raised my head a little and saw Zoey still on her phone.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgIeeh1V8re
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuM1fanmLC5
"Yes, I said that," I said as I dropped my head and stared at Jongup's phone.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohg0TV6osz
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsNy8NW73C3
"Why not do so now?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPeefwf0o3p
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7M3w8wIZm
"No!" Christine, Mike and I said out loud at the same time.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4ZvarargZ
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWj5KGH5DrE
"Eish, guys. It's why I asked. You don't have to eat me alive."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2oxiSaw0X
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCSR9y52r0c
Himchan and the other BAP members around the table started to chuckle.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEa6qY3ISpo
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9SvqXY0cKS
"You Toxins really are something," said Himchan. "You do know that the majority of you opposed, right?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrSfA0K0mr
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmVJr5JwXK
"Except Daniel," said Zelo.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2RoiC9MAw
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfuqtHcnsZ
"Oh, I refuse too," said Daniel, still on his phone.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSEnng0spX3
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLgqa7PAXYR
Zoey tsked. "You guys are no fun."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyIUREnqo1l
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz5nk7gQYlC
"Use logic, Zoey," said Christine. "We're all tired and don't have the energy for a dance challenge."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLajm8Xwah
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Bzs29p65q
"I know that. I thought maybe someone's in the mood for it."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ByDZLqKaY
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡushyYSgVLa
"No one is in the mood for it," said Mike.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KpBmCtHSm
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUGvBPC9Gd
"And what if the BAP members were?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlX3SnNjuGQ
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0oBOPat4x
I heard Daehyun nervously chuckle. "To be honest, Zoey," he said, "I'm definitely not in the mood."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp8mVjSICTM
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqz9nvUlrcT
"Me too," said Young-jae.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6aFrzif0p
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfA1Z6TFPP9
"Me three," said Zelo.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWddSf7HINF
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡClPCIMBjcg
"Guess I don't have to ask you, Himchan," said Zoey, sounding unimpressed.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNlFveUavMl
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6UtcgyiyL
Himchan, just like Daehyun, nervously chuckled too.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4knkmKcFSu
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkNtPP6Sv5
"You can ask Yong-guk," Zelo suggested.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz5QjnLMLI1
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHEnCxAzJ2
"Nah. He's already busy and I don't like to be a bother."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3VeBrMoeb
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5kuCtsD7y3
"Really?" Mike asked. Uh-oh. I smell an argument brewing. "You bother a lot of us everyday."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8cFpyiLME
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRADn7sw6G9
"What did you say!?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡREVrkwd7XS
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwd74fUxutP
"Quiet down, Zoey," said Christine. "You're disturbing Yong-nam. He's probably asleep."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAZT1EmjB0x
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwI732cR3G5
I turned to look at Yong-nam beside me and saw him move his arm above his eyes. He had one eye open. He turned his eye to look at me. I almost yelped. I felt embarrassed that he had caught me looking at him. The corner of his lips raised to a smile. He closed his eye and moved his arm back to cover his eyes. That was it.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQmYbRPFpUd
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpD4hlkMRtA
"I bet he isn't," said Zoey. "Is he, Sam?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOefm7YxFb
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJP9e7pk50
"Huh?" I got a little caught off guard as I didn't answer Zoey's question.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgAIqHYbviW
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6mZt9W64Mp
"Is he awake?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2LbHlZor6
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzG0yyzD2uW
"Not sure," I answered. "He would've said something if he was."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmvk1UbyNiw
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZq3CdbmrQ
I looked at him and noticed a wide smile on his face. Okay...., didn't know what to make of it, so I quickly turned my attention back to Jongup's phone.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzfT1wvNXY
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXj9HPpTKR4
"Anyway, where was I?" Zoey asked as she paused to think a bit. I noticed that no one's willing to remind her. It's best not to.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1qMGX3R5iR
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb10FDUFT6I
"Ah-ha!" she exclaimed. "It's what you said, Mike. How am I a bother to you?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRfdfU9GjzX
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ53zWUd0t8c
"You're being a bother right now. I'm trying to rest and you're disturbing me."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGJ7v1sYoh
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡos5lrCXvMU
Zoey hissed that I thought a snake had magically appeared in the room. If she was one, no doubt she would attack Mike first.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgMxmtkWD0
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWDjmPXkuf
"Enough," said Christine. "No one wants to see or hear you two fight."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzaww25dti0
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVYfrchzhDw
"Mike started it," said Zoey.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQijv23Fxw1
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3BR8Ri8qk
"You amplified it," said Mike. "You always do."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4CyGlbkQ8J
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW4SgRGRhjd
"For once I agree with Mike," I said. "Let it go, Zoey."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfCmqbI8gT3
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQb18G1L4VC
"You guys are unbelievable," said Zoey.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKcS3OB32M2
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKydq3syEp
"You're unbelievable," said Himchan as he chuckled. "You really are a drama queen. No offense."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3psG9HOF4
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwAvR2j2sax
"None taken. These guys call me that all the time."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDASMZlb8y
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDsk3PXLkq
After a while, all of us settled back to what we were doing. I was still watching videos with Jongup when I suddenly sat up from the floor. If I continued lying there, I would probably have a backache.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2kyAANv6tC
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7CoDEgRgah
I stretched out my arms and stood up, stretching my whole body.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0z84AjXVr
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBI9T052uT
"I've had enough of watching Instagram videos," I told Jongup.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWujtwQjKF
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDcWJvMhmC
He gave me a smile and went back to looking at his phone. I turned to look at everyone and almost all of them were either quietly resting or on their phones.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTyL9Hh9q0M
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDzG4KOuPO
I looked over at Yong-guk who was still seated at the console. I decided to go over and see how he's progressing with the song.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmBseLDyfn
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM6Dos9SwPn
"Hey, there," I said to him when I got behind him. I bent over to look at him from the side of his face.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFHeBwT9lMo
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkH8XTEEupX
"Oh, Sam," he looked up at me, surprised. "I didn't hear you coming."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAniakzoYMR
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltOTlFTzYO
"I've cat feet," I said as I took the empty seat next to him.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdLm3V7XLmu
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4lu2TXeULv
"Cat feet?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdirjWCDKGh
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvG1DdXZVKt
"I'm told there are times when people don't hear me coming so they say I've cat feet. I sometimes scare them."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlBXGWyEDj
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyA8O3eJIPn
"Oh, I see."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5cSWX54ZH
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8DgstWT1X0
"It's true, Yong-guk," Zoey said behind us. "So don't upset her or else she might come to your room and murder you."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCF8LiEQSI
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQr2BuyCmyx
"I'll keep that in mind," said Yong-guk as he turned to smile at her.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ404irKMPPL
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXVtTckbtkH
"Don't listen to her," I said as I turned to look at the console in front of me. "So, what are you really working on? I thought we were done and dusted with your song."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXtqS9Iq2bY
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXGA5sk2Cx
"I'm not working on our song," said Yong-guk as he went to work on the laptop.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡioRhqjbpv6
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRTh0q97tM
"Then, what are you working on?" I raised my eyebrow at him.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5ZxbixR9u
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx52HURiawC
"On your song," he answered.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Vdm7tS0CX
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2BVw0FSntf
"Huh?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvvOoNdmSL
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwe43lZ6yFS
"The tune you played earlier gave me a little inspiration to somehow come up with an instrumental. It's still not finished since I just started."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyveE8LyXHr
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoSUY7SZVs5
"Wow." I'm surprised. I didn't think Yong-guk would go this far. I didn't even know what to say.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQw5YkBQrfK
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW9HDSOM13G
"Hey, are you okay, Sam?" Yong-guk asked.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrHipEKQEhu
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvRkL2As4h
I quickly turned to look at him. "Huh?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtc8OY39By1
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVxNrRlDjE
"You spaced out for a bit. Is it a bad idea that I'm working on the instrumental? I know there will probably be someone working on it, but I thought I could do something, you know?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37IfzU1Ba7
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡveTosLEzlU
I smiled at him. He really means it. There aren't many people in the world who are so thoughtful.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwPgKYeYvR
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpd2V7u4ZAS
"I know what you mean. And no. I think there's no better person to work on it than you, Yong-guk."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwxaHYcJhw
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5SwFp5cQ4
"Really?" He looked a little surprised with what I said.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8qT7Mpnwr
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjucHvmoOp
"Of course! Who would've thought we would've you helping us? It's actually really nice of you."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBhjNdEsHr
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJ9EKTVllu
I noticed his cheeks start to redden a little and he quickly turned away. I continued to smile. I had this overwhelming feeling like I could hug him, but now isn't the time.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEunkTuiZ3
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHoA4Ak9Gbf
"May I hear what you've done so far?" I asked.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6nL6aHbkBP
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFWpiijdO4
"Ah..., sure," he said as he brought over the laptop closer.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP9TdDObaKl
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYIHTkYrg2x
He showed me what he had done and even when the instrumental was short, it sounded great. He really did follow the tune and melody like I had done with the guitar. He also added a few beats into the mix making the song sound more like pop.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtEBoH6NGv4
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPojFD8gJ7Y
"Amazing," I looked at him with so much awe. "It's no wonder you're such a great producer."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8WyQN5QZxk
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCXRZAuw58
He chuckled. "Coming from you, that means a lot."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZNuQ1Ux4a
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZu8H6pu0Nx
"The others should hear this." My ear twitched. "I know you're there, Mike."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYEla8ax51
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvMLnr1D5i
"Dang it!" I heard him mutter. Yong-guk and I turned around to see him behind us. "How come my cat feet can't work on you?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4PwAf5lSv
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrzy7IGahMv
"Because what you've ain't cat feet," I smirked at him. "You've to work a lot harder than that."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgabE7ShUB
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvAua8OCvf
"Anyway....," he came closer and placed his hands on my shoulder and Yong-guk's, "what is it that some of us have to listen to?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwRUAA7vbOp
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8z6wsEe2U
"This," I said as I pressed the play button on the laptop, playing out the instrumental for him.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZiUy7Djmj
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNYbmdOkqp0
"Wow," muttered Mike. "But wait..., why does this beat sound familiar?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWVFnpTYv26
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVi1P7JlAw
"It's because it's the beat to our song, silly," I said to him.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWA3zJazCCh
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg1NIFBhum9
"Wow! Really!" I saw Mike look at Yong-guk just like I did earlier, with so much awe. "This is what you were working on?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjO6Av5M6yV
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRA84lw4voy
Yong-guk nodded his head. Mike almost screamed like a girl, but he tried not to be so loud. I couldn't help but chuckle. He looked like his five year old self when he got a remote control car for his birthday.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPunHFmGZkY
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEyOYBebOUm
"You're amazing," he said as he patted Yong-guk on the shoulder. "This song will be awesome."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCmtpj0ATqV
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQm4zHPMWtZ
"Thanks," he said. "You should be thanking your sister, though."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfF0aYx22m9
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcB6P6OB3RQ
"Huh?" Mike and I looked pluzzled.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3r4qRNOw0A
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1ZSlPBNsF
"Remember what I said," he said as he looked at me. "The way you played with the guitar inspired me to come up with this."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJyFoOKTpQC
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwrcObIV06
"Oh...," I forgot he said that. Now it's my turn to blush, and Yong-guk smiled.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIu8JNcEnd9
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVpr5WEb6pN
"Ya, my sister is a genius," said Mike. "May I join you?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhnVlk78TIV

"Sure," said Yong-guk. "With you two here, I bet we can work on it together."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW82qU3NG7X
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡclfHMR5oc9
"And probably come up with lyrics for the song," I said when it dawned on me. "That's why you wanted me to come and join you here by the console."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFPajQPwWH
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb5UNhzWrGH
"I see you've got what I intended to do." Yong-guk turned to look at me with a smile. Mike sat on his other side. "I thought working on the instrumental will give you some idea on lyrics for the song."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡur0oxMq0Ji
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHMePzDpvG
"We'll see," said Mike as he rubbed his hands together and looking at the console before him like a hot, tasty meal he couldn't wait to put in his mouth.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMbtStQdnuW
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE8uZpMW9Bj
"Alright, let's start," said Yong-guk.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6E3uWv5LiM
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1Y1MVceKy
The three of us worked on the beats maker software on the laptop. With Mike's creativity and Yong-guk's producer skills, working on the instrumental was smooth and simple. We had no idea how long we had been working on it, but we had fun and joked around whenever we could.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLVQqlI1wll
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlW7KBxWWBe
"Hey, what's going on here?" Himchan asked as he came to join us.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUfYFDdiueL
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfL8qlCyD3h
"We're working on an instrumental," Mike answered.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi4RUmNV9Zm
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GUrW45W6m
"Which one?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNIUMlAnDOP
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXGUIfOmvO
"For our song," I answered. "You should hear it, it's really good."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkC1q2zMFdp
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFmB2i3ceI
"Oh, I thought you had run out of ideas for the lyrics."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFyGt8l0XGA
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrLPDls5aAl
"Well, I did. Maybe if I continue working on the instrumental, I might come up with them."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKdMVrLfmEP
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrjzaDcB4Va
"How far have you gone doing so?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3E6K1CR7GU
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQchxfVZWj
"Not too far," Yong-guk answered. "We've only tried to work on the first part and heading to the chorus. But even that needs a lot of work."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpzmviGt2s
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovAbcFRhyV
"I agree," said Mike.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9BmLXrv7V
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIVgZxz6hqU
"And you're going to use this instrumental for your album?" Himchan asked.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSEgrGQD1zZ
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUJjDiOJdEL
"Of course we're," I answered, looking back at him. I now understood why he asked and I winced.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2cFy7Xp33
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQtyVUmxPW
"What is it, Sam?" Mike asked.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWa59ZXlb1s
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITG133MxhF
"We need to seek permission to use this instrumental." I scratched the back of my head. "Goodness, why didn't I think about this before?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoBGwtUEcCr
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuP0ec3IWxC
"Oh, ya," Mike turned to look at me quickly. "Why can't you give Collins a call and tell him that we've someone helping us?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkcCEMVA74
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5p2xwADexz
"Collins may agree. But what about Yang Hyun-suk?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9WrvhIwGq2
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXrX33PfF2d
Mike and I stared at each other. We both winced like we had done something wrong and we would be in big trouble for it.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwDq2K8VKu
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdx2yIhxKI
"Gosh, the man is troubling," said Mike as he leaned back in his seat. "He can hunt you in your dreams if you think about him too much."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzB57UtyrPx
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoGA83UnpW
"He's really strict," I said. "And he's also hard to impress. If we do play out the instrumental for him, would he really like it?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGL9KaSR2K
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjRftSpPVYo
"This is your tune and melody, Sam. So, he can't refuse. I mean, the song we did with BigBang was all you too."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ewgPBGpir
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJXSRwbAiA
"It was?" Yong-guk and Himchan asked at the same time.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTwC65dPm2d
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlZGJHfLiN
"Never mind that," I told them as I went back to looking at Mike. "I'm worried because Yong-guk is helping us produce this one. Will Yang Hyun-suk agree?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6fe3MLRyo
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ73iom95Ccq
"As long as he knows you thought of it in the first place, he'll definitely agree." Mike leaned forward so as to look at me.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrw6jLw9ygz
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3UkoGqcEp
"Does this thing involving me always have to be highlighted?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEFVB3Cu50I
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9dX4dkpzP
"Daa, yes! Out of all of us, Yang Hyun-suk approves of you the most. He'll definitely go through with it."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKqtRQ8uTg
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTxyxHCCJQ
I gave Mike a look. I don't consider myself as Yang Hyun-suk's favourite among The Toxins. I'm just afraid he won't approve.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bBk3Z75TB
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ4k1HDxRWR
"Okay, if that's the case, than what of Yong-guk? Will he really help us through till the end?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmfb6eEjjHr
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuBE4z3goWI
"I don't think we've to worry about that. Besides, even if he didn't offer to help, he seemed to do it out of his own free will, you know."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6BKRIHZV4F
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3JA9EgD26
"I'm right here, you guys," said Yong-guk in between Mike and me. "I can clearly hear you."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsYs4x4oCnp
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8hMkPkf69E
Mike and I turned to look at him, then ignored him like he wasn't there. Himchan chuckled.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Hn5Ikhtxo
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡThn4LnPTQB
"You're right," I said. "He'll stay till the end. He's such a good friend for helping us out."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG23AX85vhb
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwI22AeHR3r
"I know right," Mike smiled. "He's awesome."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdguh2Qnsye
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJd9oMowJD
"I think you better focus on giving Collins a call, Sam," said Yong-guk, trying to sound serious, yet falling to do so.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsRnuV7KT9j
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOLknRMJ7m
"Aww," Himchan complained. "Their conversation was just about to get more interesting."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyIcRiZYioa
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI0YEfUK4id
I laughed. "He's just trying to hide the fact that he's blushing."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrTjnVKz8pp
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQQ6CoSd1r
"No, I'm not," said Yong-guk as he folded his arms and looked straight ahead, avoiding eye contact.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2XGAMcjapP
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyNbdQAcMZ0
Mike burst out laughing that he leaned back further in his seat. "Stop trying to put up a serious face, Yong-guk," he said. "You look awfully funny."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2wSAkAn4hG
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv9KlRV4WF9
I couldn't help but agree with Mike as I also started laughing. I had to keep in mind that I had a phone call to make. I soon stood up from my seat.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjGqpc4a9v
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfLMnIRoiE
"I'll be back," I said as I tried to stop laughing. "You better not have that face when I get back, Yong-guk."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXUqmgr9YA
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGQNpiQOU2
I walked away from the others as I made my way to the door. I needed to be somewhere more private if I am to talk with Collins.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡciGmREwUPt
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8A7N9IygP
I stepped out into the hall and looked both ways. There's nobody walking around. I pulled out my phone from my pocket and searched for Collins' number. I pressed the call button and placed the phone to my ear.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWIOl9Qdrm
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOCrzq6yRr
His phone rang, and it kept on ringing. I grew worried that he might not answer. Maybe he's busy. He did say he would be occupied today. I better call him at a later time.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3W1u8lwoS
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqkWy5mBB9p
Just when I'm about to cut the call, he picked up at the last minute.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsjt3cmfpPR
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3cE3lbe2T
"Hi, Sam," came his voice. "How's song writing going?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibyiK0MNC4
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNdrVxo3st
"Not good, I'm afraid," I said as I scratched the back of my head wondering how to bring up the instrumental thing.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYyiRa5pUS1
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTRm67w8O3
"You'll figure it out. You do have extra help, don't you?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqbe05jl0I
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcp9FsiwUBy
"I see Lee told you about BAP."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwbkOC6f8L
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjzZgQhrqER
"Well, she had to. So what can I do for you?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiTWG7wVG8N
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ73axwkMTmQ
"Well, we were working on the song and we felt a little stuck. So we had help with coming up with the instrumental for the song."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6lBedwCJH
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwZr8PgOFv
"You're already coming up with that?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQl3gwjaj9A
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVm55dTX2n4
I scratched the back of my head even more as I started to pace up and down in front of the door. "Well, ya. You see, Yong-guk - the leader of BAP - kind of got inspired to make us the instrumental because of the way I played it with the guitar. So we were wondering if it's okay with you that we use it for the song."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmyw8onmvs
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhBGv1LnHL
There was silence on the other end. I wonder what Collins must be thinking. He's a little unpredictable sometimes and he might not agree with it.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7gE3UVFNY6
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSRkekddyJ
"Well," he started to say, "we would've to listen to it to see if it's actually good. The big problem is whether he should be working on it in the first place."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFbQOkWXV0g
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvRNfcRtXoK
I knew it. I had to say something quick to convince him.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdoq62mL9AC
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijm87QQfyN
"I know, but he's really good. And besides, Mike and I are helping out too. You can be rest assured that it will be great."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6aEl1tat2
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRldZGZbYxi
"I believe you. But you know I'm not the only manager in this project of ours."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8NAzIZLJt0
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0NzHlMg1hJ
"If you could talk to Yang Hyun-suk for me, I bet he would agree. Yong-guk is a great producer and he's reputation proves that otherwise."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLVHKNvcl7w
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKL0EkAPUZ
"I don't have to talk to Yang Hyun-suk. He's right here with me. I put you on loud speaker."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4cFlFzqBTZ
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxf6hh73n6
I swallowed as I stopped pacing and my heart did one huge beat that I felt my chest hurt.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM41LLtt8OB
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfCju3R20Km
"Oh..., good afternoon, Yang Hyun-suk sarangnim," I said quickly, so as not to seem surprised.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsRpDK4SuSK
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLojbYKgAr
"Afternoon," came Yang Hyun-suk's voice. I could feel beads of sweet starting to form on my forehead. "I heard everything you had to say."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwrxcJaT44Q
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZECp38fEBS
"And what do you think?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXLLLbPH3Rm
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFIxizRV1Iv
"Well..., as much as the idea sounds tempting, I would actually refuse."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVfyoFkF8Y
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUpXoieEEOo
My heart sank. I told myself it was worth a try anyway.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbioRK5GtMa
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0FV9ncfUyX
"But," he continued, "we're talking about Bang Yong-guk, and he's reputation, like you've said, precedes him. If he does want to help out and you think he's the right producer for the job, then I've no objection to it. You can proceed with making the instrumental."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4V19Hcpmw
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7z1CDrXZdV
"Really!" I cried out in excitement. I can't believe he actually agreed.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwNCLJoH0NG
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIAHo3AMEq1
"Let's not forget that we're the ones that have the final say. If it's good, then we will proceed."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZH8YqIUMk
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgKN0v49utn
"Thank you!" I said with so much excitement. I could hear the two managers chuckle to themselves. "I promise you won't be disappointed."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ10LrHQjqKc
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtOnYRzs5En
"Make us proud, Sam," said Collins. "I hope you'll be able to come up with lyrics."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5LgjArrmJY
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfIg4WxNV4g
"I will. Thank you once again."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCd18I7CYHl
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHQsWQOtZQ
The two managers wished me luck. As soon as the line cut, I punched the air with excitement. We're really doing this. I can't wait to tell the others.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡULegv92MeO
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hFR21OqoD
I turned around and opened the door to the studio. As soon as I went in, I quickly rushed over to the others on the console.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4t8h0t2Ktv
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALP0BuPdQL
"What's the news?" Mike asked as he looked at me.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBaVGwI5qv
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeWYpmvh29U
"I hope it's good," said Himchan.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhiFE8kKqPg
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60zTKVYH6v
"What news?" asked Daniel who was still seated on the couch. His eyes left the phone as he looked at us who were by the console.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTD7LE1bF0
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzeVjANIWWc
"They agreed," I answered.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8VXOzFjTaC
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGgCpHFJOyA
Himchan and Mike clapped, looking relieved. Yong-guk leaned back in his seat, looking cool and composed, but I could tell that he was just as happy as the three of us.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMFEditKcv4
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcH1Dkk4bju
"Who agreed to what?" Daniel asked as he stood up from his couch to come over and join us. "I want to know what's going on."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUBLEPbA5MA
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo3XtCqj9wB
"Ya, I'm also anxious to know what you're all talking about," said Daehyun.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdc17ZZfurF
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjcMhC7bgzL
"Me too," said Zoey. "What did I miss?"570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNbAmh4Jyoc
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnrE5gUaqW6
"A lot," I answered.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1cBzuDRlUA
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvezruJOrwS
I told them what was going on and how I somehow managed to talk to the managers to go through with Yong-guk's instrumental.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkXOyjkwNk
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ziucyOS87
"Wow, that's awesome," said Zelo.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCTATprByu
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvR0j7dtEQ8
"You see how the managers just love you, Sam?" Mike asked.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2vivhJnXkT
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU25g8fgImA
"No, they don't," I emphasised. "If they don't like the instrumental, we aren't going to use it. So it has to be perfect."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ413Y5Mkzni
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNkijJiBEu6
"But for them to agree its because they know Yong-guk is an awesome producer," said Himchan. "No doubt it will be lit."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtC7nwf71Np
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxIyVCPmVKi
"I agree with Himchan," said Zoey. "And besides, it's more of Sam's original, so they can't say no."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZd7d6adzYb
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26X5ZIhvNE
"Okay, we just need to focus on the instrumental and hopefully come up with the lyrics," I said.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYbIBDKbth
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7bZBeZweN
"Well, you better work on those fast," said Yong-nam, who was now wide awake, but still laying on the floor. "You don't have much time."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZC8pjf1J5X
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLgIRyrpTK2
"Okay," I said as I rubbed my hands together. "Toxins, get over here by the console, please."570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVTf1OCYeL9
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYSxgGyeee
"Okay," said Christine and Zoey as they both stood up from the couch and quickly came over.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwm7HqxXsEx
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEBIoGWHxNU
"We will be here to help in anyway we can," said Young-jae.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhDxuXAuH2t
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMYuhGCYz4
"Thanks, guys," I said with a smile. I went over to sit back on my chair next to Yong-guk.570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7KSSaLPZC
570Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOiFoDVUKti
"Okay," said Yong-guk. "Let's continue where we ended, shall we?"
