"Okay, so here are the lyrics for the song," I said after writing them down.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVehc9SwqYe
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzu2cm4OgqK
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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTXyB0aQV5
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeg3cNpvMpG
"Just admit it," said Zoey, "the song is awesome."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwnGfF2DG9v
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrpuG9nl6BN
"Zoey." Christine gave her a look that told her to keep quiet. "Let the others take it in first."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCD5BYRhg5K
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQA1JgDkXR
"Zoey's right," said Daehyun. "The lyrics are great."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1oTHLunXJy
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlFD5bhoEb0
"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."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2YvC69LxG
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW4qp3uYc77
"You should listen to the tune," said Mike. "You'll love it."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOgCUNlHPAJ
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDs2kJuCWrt
"I bet that's why you went searching for the guitar," said Jongup as he looked at me.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5pnYVocQB
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0OmjM48g3g
"Play the guitar, Sam," Himchan insisted. "We're all dying to hear it. I bet Yong-guk can't wait any longer."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbZlZG6cFK
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpdoS6FI12
"Huh?" Yong-guk looked at Himchan beside him, looking confused. "No, I'm not."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKK8Os723b
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQgjuQ2bBWW
"Of course you are," said Yong-nam as he gave his brother a raised eyebrow. "Don't forget, I'm your twin."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbWi2sgQPQ
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBh71nMz27i
"Okay," I said as I took the guitar that had been laying on the table the whole time. "Let me play it, then."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzfNylUGMaa
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4eyCKttj1L
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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhgc6AhKWbO
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡli4yBUsan5
"Wow," said Young-jae, looking at me like he's just seen something's dazzled him. "The song's going to sound awesome."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQjjNxDBT9w
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvf11Cpe7nq
"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."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKFxcVmiYFn
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc1Q4pGbpFG
"Alright," said Yong-guk, looking to see what I was writing on the paper. "Whatever it is, I bet we can handle it."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiHZor9EOls
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyjYny7cL4i
"Can't wait to see you try," said Christine. "But then again, if it's you two l'm not worried."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5awNr63CAz
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6f6Y3wTwlu
"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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ44j5bq9olG
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHFB4MO1HA
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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGI76xCHGMw
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25jZso59zZ
"Come on, Jongup," Zelo complained. "You're distracting Sam. We all want to hear what she has written."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOqSiqBpf8O
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwor5IWtqpF
"I don't think that I'm distracting her," said Jongup as he looked at Zelo. "Right, Sam?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYCTwaXUU5t
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUqdq7hX28
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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9clbTo9Mtd
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡejGIRWe40T
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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtmsJjMFXqS
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsx6xOu5OL
"What's wrong, Sam?" he asked.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GyTOgfkoA
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShgp35uOdm
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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡguy7nrpwaN
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjNgEfox63
"Goodness, Jongup," said Mike, "you almost kissed my sister."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07fj80Ay4h
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkea1wUr1HQ
And it just had to be Mike. Goodness, me!599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH7ksFPmles
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYwkzmyFDm
"Huh?" Jongup looked surprised. "I did?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKUvEZPS9u
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdBJibXZlt
"And you were this close," said Zoey indicating a tiny space with her index finger and thumb.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdv2bsoniHr
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdu8w55LvLH
"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."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhgILV8iTGW
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1Zh9VkYh6
"You see, I told you so," said Zelo.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDzGQ4t20E1
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqRNH15OY3
"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."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8TZkPUa6Ky
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCKnV80Jze0
Yong-nam cleared his throat. "Not at all," he answered. "You're actually pretty light."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4VEDPq2hcW
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF4772K2UwZ
I nervously laughed, not sure whether he meant it or not.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjqFS6Q58Q
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtEfhp6MieP
"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."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWzpe4vCcd7
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM6NfIKb31U
"You're such a fantasist, Zoey," said Daniel as he shook his head.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cnHh5iroz
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7gBHFxujkt
"Don't mind her," I said. "Can we forget the kissing incident and focus on the song, please?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrhWXTPQIKI
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQ4NA7DyNq
"Sure," said Mike. "That's if we can reset Zoey's brain or else she won't stop talking about it."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuaHa2Wd70S
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7UiaoPmbr
"Are you saying that I'm kookoo?" Zoey asked, looking at Mike.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDyE0WDZNUU
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6tPFrpFwGU
"You can argue later, you two," I said, giving them a look. "Let's try and focus."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJdHyHDN82X
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62DOhXnHiL
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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFO89AI6pdm
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm34Q9eFEP7
"Is it just me or something's just off?" Young-jae asked.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxFSK3amHn
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtyGhT8mENn
"I think I feel what you mean," said Zoey as she scratched her head.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxgqgP5PzB9
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeTuf6A5Oiq
"Huh? What's Zoey saying?" Himchan asked.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWuRsfr6eSw
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXCZFughNuN
"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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoin4QPE6xJ
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJcSHgjeqpO
"I feel we aren't working like we did the first time," said Christine.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNCwf9d1IU
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUdaToIGWIL
"Ya, that's what I meant," said Zoey.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xTL5coWmx
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfn7g6LP28Q
"We just aren't coming up with the right lyrics," said Yong-guk, "that's all."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY9OwdW0pcC
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqufPPxYUxB
"Why is that?" Himchan asked.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSb1XVJf1kV
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpqTAIHaxz
"Who knows," said Daniel. "What do you think, Sam?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmIxBy0pLR
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrNe8kJx2S
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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4WIfjS8owa
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsmWKsgxvKE
"You look like you're about to cry, Sam," said Jongup.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvKpybYejDg
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGV6v4W3oqO
"Don't mind me," I said. "I'm frustrated that we're going nowhere."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfza0EVgJNL
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3No1lQxpP
"Maybe we're all just tired," said Zelo.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6xcWiDOsHZ
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDiJVnxLbh
"I felt we rested enough," said Daehyun.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp6kFlbKVIf
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoTr0JX20Ug
"Or maybe we've been in the same place for too long," I suggested. "Sometimes the environment contributes greatly."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdr3VbIoH0s
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxmoOC7Y2q
"Maybe," said Yong-guk.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0BDKcHTSE
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3EWVmXLn4Z
"What do you think, Yong-nam?" Christine asked as she turned to look at him.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8YpSoUScUN
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlc9ziQqJ7H
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."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf59gZgRYd9
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYo1yFrDfMK
"Tomorrow?" Daniel looked shocked at the idea. "Won't that be a little too late for us?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQZvMjcVJi
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUivPRTFVyG
"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."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP9MXITCmoh
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvPpmWlwAp
"Not forgetting that we should at least have something to present to Yang Hyun-suk," said Zoey.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHMvAQ2E09M
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Esjm8Mzvo
"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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS9v8tRFWQ1
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyJHuSYT6WH
"Now I wish we never had to make an album," said Zoey as she leaned back on the chair and sighed.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGg15a2yU23
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ911vtVtne5
"Wow, you guys are working on an album?" Jongup asked.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJpVuIrxidG
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVqtc2NGOEM
"Yep," I answered as I lifted my face up from my hands. "Our managers are ambitious."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhe6lBoSjK3
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡizz1fyA8XJ
"At least we don't have to worry about the other songs," said Zoey.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6OlomK6fZ
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX29YVZPYIq
"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."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWrP2C21zkE
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjyMiwG8BI
"I think we should take a little break," said Yong-nam.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrDhgHuXkE
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbrVWG6A6B
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?599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiNFctoKiqk
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kn88OHZpR
"You're scaring me, Sam," I heard Yong-guk say.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡun9CP0zBJN
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzl0WZ6jmI
"Oh, don't mind her," said Zoey. "She started this and finding a way to finish it is frustrating."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ85iVPltzLL
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJqixPAOdX
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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqU8sxLV3aG
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwcGQHk5xSL
"Wait..., does this mean we won't have the reward Lee was talking about?" I heard Daniel ask.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtTnpEtTMK
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFu7Mw6TtU9
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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJALU1NQEe
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGdg2lOG8ia
"Don't worry about that, Daniel," I said. "Lee will give us that reward."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUvy3ZtbF4
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡitXMfiDzP2
"For someone who seems tired, you sound pretty confident," said Himchan.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9gXoU5j6EJ
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJbDcOEgUl
"I just know." I smiled at him as I shrugged my shoulders.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0aTjYrX47
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGbGAAg1chX
"Do you've any idea what it could be?" Daniel asked.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZ8MSxtEwd
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3OuuK5BQ4L
I shook my head. It's best it turns out as a surprise.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWcBhwipye
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4CkI8sTJw
"So, what are we going to do now?" Zelo asked. "Just sit and do nothing?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMH7SNpq1T
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoGfLpsK3hx
"We can do something fun to pass the time," Christine suggested.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk35WtHo3Wr
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGusDxHJWt
"Not me," I went back to lying down on the floor.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Bq7MPiSzi
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ15uQHxqXE
No one said a word. I could feel a few eyes on me, while others, I'm guessing, gave each other looks.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRTGxudT9pi
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUyUMH5APKX
"Come on, Sam," said Zoey. "You're such a party pooper."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBSlGno1rdB
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnAVTZ7dCK
"Haven't heard you call me that in a while," I said as I smiled at the ceiling.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ550PBXvcA
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHhJb9tNL4L
"Get up, will you? This is no time to be lying down."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWluJUy6lbl
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7F7xHZ2c9s
"There's nothing wrong with lying down to rest, is there?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvtIa7AmOhE
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHs2s3Kebt7
"Goodness, me." Zoey sounded frustrated. She couldn't argue over that and she knew it.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLdty5q9NLz
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqUgkdhcOC
"Maybe we should call Lee to pick us up," Mike suggested.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2QIBZb7Tro
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp88EVeoqpJ
"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."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3O9ybDgKJ
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDvyb0oJZfB
I heard Zelo and Daehyun chuckle while I heard Christine and Zoey mutter out in frustration.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4mW9m138O1
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWqwR0X2BHL
"Looks like you're stuck here with us until Lee comes to pick you up," I heard Yong-guk say.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBXo8J3coCj
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4VSV3OFb2J
"But we can't sit here doing nothing," said Daniel. "Like Christine said, we better find something to do."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrG8S4rW5MP
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW2IwAMBsFR
"You should be resting," I suggested, my eyes still closed.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01ODTN7noc
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡND6PRSZEW5
"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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9WMt0nGOsU
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ360dBAzAS
I smiled. "Suit yourself."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfAPl94g1i
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnytZJcpnAL
"No one wants to do karaoke in the recording booth?" Jongup suggested.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6xaKyvQSva
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdyxmmGArPF
"I think we've done enough singing for one day," said Daehyun.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWilaJMHxWM
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7h12ssl6ZI
"I agree," said Zoey.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ45Q4gsUJP
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ4HsI3FQlF
"If there's clearly nothing to do, then I think we should be resting like Sam's doing right now," said Yong-guk.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQeDOGt2cbu
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXl7GIRONI
"I like your thinking," I said with my eyes closed. I raised my hand to give him a thumbs up.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc0Fpw5iQxJ
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAxyPnzQbq
"You songwriters all think the same," I heard Christine mutter.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8IXXE80Tn
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBIkwLArHdo
"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."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLJLD4THdk
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbpLfT6hG2
"Huh? Not you too, Mike," said Zoey, sounding surprised.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoF3vKQNY1Q
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcfS0EaJcns
"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?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfG6wSTWjhT
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgILhmUxzwO
"I shouldn't be surprised coming from you."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyubmSeCocw
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDCr97eTp3V
"Ya, ya, ya, Zoey. I'm the bad guy here. Doesn't matter now, does it?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgBoq27mIK
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsrdVf8OLlJ
"Well, if there's nothing for you guys to do at the moment, then I'm going to work on something," said Yong-guk.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6pLSvGdAGp
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUPi178pkTl
"And what could that be?" Young-jae asked.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9m5cOKpUto
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ZCMmkhOZJ
"Our song, of course."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpZRlxCx8Ch
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPAuX1EmrgJ
"You go ahead and do that," I said.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡepxcJsOLKX
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOBTkRAoqGC
There came an awkward pause and I opened one eye to look at him.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiLAbD7O5kZ
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeuyVSiIGOR
"You look surprised, Yong-guk," said Yong-nam. He took the words right out of my mouth.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhfvJ2aE9ng
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyPY8bJ4pTK
"I thought that would get Sam up from the floor since she seems to really like helping out," said Yong-guk.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDHhL1OAyb
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7mpmI7lIy
"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."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5kYliBmfM
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1yagrdduXy
"Okay, then," said Yong-guk. "And you, Mike?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp62Znvdecz
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF97UmoFLXf
"I'll pass too," said Mike.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpshEU5w5H
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKm72bJXSr
"Okay. I'll be by the console. Any of you guys want to join me?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVXqKgDHQcw
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQIwBULGvu
"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."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ZreN51te1
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBaz3CwTEh3
"I'm going to relax over here too," said Young-jae.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpWONZyy6x
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGmTf3Aowl
"What's up with everyone?" Yong-guk asked, sounding surprised.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQnkPcQoSU
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtyUAcgKrqB
"Like Yong-nam said, we're tired," I said as I sat up. "The best thing to do right now is relax."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjSybLh2iWf

"Aren't you worried about not making progress on your song?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZKi7uBYqI
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXLvjTJ8JM
"I was about to ask the same question," said Zoey with a sulky look on her face. 599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡszeQXXjWa0
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWsDkw4Cr1z
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."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQgn5Glzjv
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB5gY9UDM3z
"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."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzQ0Mil61Q
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZtu7OdQjO
"You of all people shouldn't even be sleeping," said Yong-guk.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7y6RRzRnaT
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsimVsVDMkc
I laughed. As much as I wanted to hear these two brothers argue, it ended there. I went back to sleeping on the floor.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXcJJwW50cV
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRSsCw86DkW
"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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nJ5EQDeXA
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFf17u9DRg
"Looks like the majority wins," said Himchan as he chuckled.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAb36YDIRzg
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Rh2SbaOLd
Zoey mourned in frustration. Even I could tell she's tired. She had no choice but to give in.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlaHYOIJibN
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZthtQQqJMr
"Oh, man!" Daniel muttered out loud.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFP0gmaYffI
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4B4gdBvsUw
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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxCqjnzGAtz
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqat9BaTDgM
"Sorry, guys," he said. He quickly looked up from his phone when he noticed people's eyes on him. "Playing a game over here."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNWgNdEVAB
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGmkDYhDly
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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOhdBQrhxI
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQ3kc144cB
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."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwT383pSl2u
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjfrUgxjn1A
"I think I'll have a little shut-eye," said Christine.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBe8p1DzGVq
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnsMAlUB8U
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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCaBSRaaM1
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTCwjJ4VJKC
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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHdjnjoRLf
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPqmw1vH0g
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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2pNNZXNcJm
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4SkzsMznr
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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVEEYByQtIs
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjSMMxu3G3
"Hey, Sam?" I heard Jongup call me. "Are you asleep?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJB44ektJZ
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡogkPnZre9O
"No," I answered. I drew my eyes open and looked at him. "What is it?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv56x6cwXn3
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4OXFCeVado
"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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwIlAz4xRU
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCPKsai5BZ
"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."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUuidwTg8Nz
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3f41E6SM8j
"I know," said Jongup. "You should see this previous one. It will knock your socks off."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfyfhrXUX47
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxbZbeawBV0
I joined Jongup in watching more cat videos. We soon moved on to watch people participate in various dance challenges.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgIkRovsSj3
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYcrtyMxzN
"We should've a dance challenge one day," I said to Jongup as we watched.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb78BFZQNFA
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡixc54Mgigd
"Huh?" he turned to look at me. "We should've a dance challenge?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8CeWjXKz8n
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxXDjOHWRN
"Ya. I mean The Toxins vs BAP."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ64S3UHAwr4
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdnf7IjCQK
"Oh..., like the one you had with Monsta X?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ64Sq2pVMmN
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡstsxFd4cH2
"Yes, like that one. You watched it?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLqn3uEoM8E
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ZMR5OXsfE
"I think a lot of us did. People really liked it."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDO6NByqGGC
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBIrUspPght
"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."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBEbZo2z1p8

"Oh, you've an album to work on."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTLhoIvopSl
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9fNRfyOlkH
I stared at the ceiling and sighed. "Just thinking about it drains me." I went back to looking at his phone.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6vK7N2ZeP
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62pgREUp7I
"Did I hear someone talk about having a dance challenge with BAP?" Zoey asked.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxwQE7s7zP
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyBK1JmxVa8
I raised my head a little and saw Zoey still on her phone.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVCVaRlape6
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡojhu9mtWDX
"Yes, I said that," I said as I dropped my head and stared at Jongup's phone.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8Omrki1dv
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ojrhznKUc
"Why not do so now?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeNGBKUO3jR
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfm3cfpwzj3
"No!" Christine, Mike and I said out loud at the same time.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3XWG9P0PuE
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUYb9u6AkzA
"Eish, guys. It's why I asked. You don't have to eat me alive."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNd8n9NtnLC
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jziMxQS9Z
Himchan and the other BAP members around the table started to chuckle.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfeyC64lyEI
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0fjgXRjWf
"You Toxins really are something," said Himchan. "You do know that the majority of you opposed, right?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡypbQWTw4Ih
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMrV1sNE5hF
"Except Daniel," said Zelo.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjxTmzhNBx
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVS1PT3OXk
"Oh, I refuse too," said Daniel, still on his phone.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Wb12AEsQ8
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKN95N9AawE
Zoey tsked. "You guys are no fun."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3GYbcG7C2
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLL3wdhT8QL
"Use logic, Zoey," said Christine. "We're all tired and don't have the energy for a dance challenge."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLKOfRJuFa
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0HXeuNxYW6
"I know that. I thought maybe someone's in the mood for it."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9SDN3zNC5
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKXb1sKvPwJ
"No one is in the mood for it," said Mike.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8zb2mcmcqG
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5694Gj1phy
"And what if the BAP members were?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdbX2XBIH6G
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTUtC0MctvY
I heard Daehyun nervously chuckle. "To be honest, Zoey," he said, "I'm definitely not in the mood."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQoytAZc6xp
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vJvX47SCo
"Me too," said Young-jae.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTv2du03P8A
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9YJKvVVHjR
"Me three," said Zelo.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQkkZ2m6zu
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMDtfmKDR3
"Guess I don't have to ask you, Himchan," said Zoey, sounding unimpressed.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpa41FrLQiz
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKQq3TLiav
Himchan, just like Daehyun, nervously chuckled too.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNPqpQsAT7
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVgi09AyzK
"You can ask Yong-guk," Zelo suggested.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWPOpGrqwQd
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqjEeK8WiJH
"Nah. He's already busy and I don't like to be a bother."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDxT6QoUVnW
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5q6VJkCp60
"Really?" Mike asked. Uh-oh. I smell an argument brewing. "You bother a lot of us everyday."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOn0wfls1Xk
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDrMYEdKSEH
"What did you say!?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO8JH5tMJcY
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbMOCuwMDXA
"Quiet down, Zoey," said Christine. "You're disturbing Yong-nam. He's probably asleep."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDzniWWDQN
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdoLExtlgeh
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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTqcOMnNKz
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvTEkhJcRN
"I bet he isn't," said Zoey. "Is he, Sam?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpbv0Gh9Tn
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoqVdMqhwlj
"Huh?" I got a little caught off guard as I didn't answer Zoey's question.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7naAnP9yq
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTmWBwBhLp
"Is he awake?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyy4dzrxDja
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5NX08McGd3
"Not sure," I answered. "He would've said something if he was."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg06zd9p3qF
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFz9lWDGtr
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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtiR9mtHg8t
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7k7aeI1zRR
"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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBE5e64qNAm
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDlhEK5kNe
"Ah-ha!" she exclaimed. "It's what you said, Mike. How am I a bother to you?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpTyDAw96dU
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSy0kjXDG24
"You're being a bother right now. I'm trying to rest and you're disturbing me."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOANcDwTvq
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsqtUh9OxEu
Zoey hissed that I thought a snake had magically appeared in the room. If she was one, no doubt she would attack Mike first.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9OFXrvrBqM
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEixHxirYMF
"Enough," said Christine. "No one wants to see or hear you two fight."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqP7KaWxTfl
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqzYbWfq4YW
"Mike started it," said Zoey.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGYEHA51kZ2
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5NPxHr26uZ
"You amplified it," said Mike. "You always do."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSNBWLDOKM
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRqrjmqxo9D
"For once I agree with Mike," I said. "Let it go, Zoey."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nY0HeZaIO
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHvUf8HtZ4
"You guys are unbelievable," said Zoey.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQ4UO9Dvzj
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgUikrJ5MrV
"You're unbelievable," said Himchan as he chuckled. "You really are a drama queen. No offense."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvF5hmlWu6z
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyNGGzvs41o
"None taken. These guys call me that all the time."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHm7z5PAv9Y
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwRFoOgDBa
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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ36jwXZwtWX
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7pM1EjLbh
I stretched out my arms and stood up, stretching my whole body.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCPUTQgrGrY
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLU4TjMNwxC
"I've had enough of watching Instagram videos," I told Jongup.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCsqWTzecdu
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHqNjd0j9Ga
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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ZHJIyoNC7
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZU2qbhfQ6
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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01Vyrvv1AS
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHSJTktuwFl
"Hey, there," I said to him when I got behind him. I bent over to look at him from the side of his face.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSn6UFcEfr
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLbqhEolaF
"Oh, Sam," he looked up at me, surprised. "I didn't hear you coming."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8zQfsPY7Rh
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Obfy3ZIYL
"I've cat feet," I said as I took the empty seat next to him.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡganJnON7me
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1up3WP0rO
"Cat feet?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhGP2cScsj
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIO2tNQtnGL
"I'm told there are times when people don't hear me coming so they say I've cat feet. I sometimes scare them."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0TvBwNeTM
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJ8VZ2Fs9Z
"Oh, I see."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQwTmfsTjY
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0b4LEnZLac
"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."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgPVuR7ir9
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0n37WDKuL
"I'll keep that in mind," said Yong-guk as he turned to smile at her.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkz5JKogdv8
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZKnRI10uZQ
"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."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUg9ie7QuA9
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8V5S2yIqR
"I'm not working on our song," said Yong-guk as he went to work on the laptop.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhC7qCHjmn
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUBMSEXHe0W
"Then, what are you working on?" I raised my eyebrow at him.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHUIkkwuBpk
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEsjKmtMqj8
"On your song," he answered.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOAXDjwDelA
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4m0xc8q0GS
"Huh?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNWQpPavXv
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbvTkSkSby7
"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."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlItGbFOUTo
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡer5zSgo3Vf
"Wow." I'm surprised. I didn't think Yong-guk would go this far. I didn't even know what to say.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡStknHmB4g0
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5l2ucNtZFw
"Hey, are you okay, Sam?" Yong-guk asked.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQIPxsEYlF9
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3mGsh3Br5
I quickly turned to look at him. "Huh?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAysU11f19F
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenc8mIex82
"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?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTcxt73oFm
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmgkwGCt5J
I smiled at him. He really means it. There aren't many people in the world who are so thoughtful.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsaoBpYDAv6
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxta6wUyoJ
"I know what you mean. And no. I think there's no better person to work on it than you, Yong-guk."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRgTX0CHAK9
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgHtL0UPgsa
"Really?" He looked a little surprised with what I said.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKym142yl4R
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIxt1F1eKw
"Of course! Who would've thought we would've you helping us? It's actually really nice of you."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1J21bvVdro
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgx6H3Q858e
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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKIGjYUsJxF
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeRvOmxFb0q
"May I hear what you've done so far?" I asked.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvw78CO2KHZ
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG8Q97tW3Hb
"Ah..., sure," he said as he brought over the laptop closer.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVh5nrA9BG0
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5JMoqb9C2n
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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGJ9Lu8PzG
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVltXeNi7Dh
"Amazing," I looked at him with so much awe. "It's no wonder you're such a great producer."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4IVdC6Ypc
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnWI91tFMXB
He chuckled. "Coming from you, that means a lot."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDxf1xQ2AR
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmfGt0Y6KEi
"The others should hear this." My ear twitched. "I know you're there, Mike."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrHJOmCaOE
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQV4NQINZRU
"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?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX47odrYgmj
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEttknafT5U
"Because what you've ain't cat feet," I smirked at him. "You've to work a lot harder than that."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTzsZCyjLRM
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83VFoVB9hk
"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?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6klXomBrKC
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5RXJb0fXNi
"This," I said as I pressed the play button on the laptop, playing out the instrumental for him.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLRkL54mudV
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRRy77AKAq4
"Wow," muttered Mike. "But wait..., why does this beat sound familiar?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡszbtNqyuEx
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRdB3dPRcl
"It's because it's the beat to our song, silly," I said to him.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmESXeL3vj1
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡApXkA6Vn4W
"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?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwNKH9amLD1
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzn6XaOPeIJ
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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlsEb74xnWq
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZusAasUKa
"You're amazing," he said as he patted Yong-guk on the shoulder. "This song will be awesome."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNbNjcZHNvb
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9TxW0KsXs
"Thanks," he said. "You should be thanking your sister, though."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtsc6PIAlPU
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY04yII9iUs
"Huh?" Mike and I looked pluzzled.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcblu3PJ9Mz
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfekBK4FGnK
"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."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAjmZwuXg0
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnOxgb7cmgm
"Oh...," I forgot he said that. Now it's my turn to blush, and Yong-guk smiled.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAR6hqQUreD
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5GHyka78ok
"Ya, my sister is a genius," said Mike. "May I join you?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMUl6pnaJA

"Sure," said Yong-guk. "With you two here, I bet we can work on it together."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrJHS5ZUlf
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQLEqOI2t2
"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."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfiX8yEEGMk
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ97IS2P3Sq2
"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."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMuaoexDT3s
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6W39eQ0d7x
"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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqXeHAqTkF
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLon3sLcma
"Alright, let's start," said Yong-guk.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjH1oOwGfBw
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQbd6uoOYHO
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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjEnpChKqse
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSw0UJsNUoS
"Hey, what's going on here?" Himchan asked as he came to join us.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wR20C2F25
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdo3XFtqylv
"We're working on an instrumental," Mike answered.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9WRaOipb4
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡarPbcTDiDm
"Which one?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlaUDMrEl0S
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡklD3qebbzz
"For our song," I answered. "You should hear it, it's really good."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvA6dXOmkF1
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtApJxg5ZX
"Oh, I thought you had run out of ideas for the lyrics."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy4nwEG3IMP
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx18D7CW8U7
"Well, I did. Maybe if I continue working on the instrumental, I might come up with them."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB55I0A1ZeQ
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjhWhpnibpj
"How far have you gone doing so?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3Wk2Th9yn
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaiJXawndKZ
"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."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfnFztltvkU
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQD3ufsIrFi
"I agree," said Mike.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCbDDKsnr5
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0hPvY5bdGY
"And you're going to use this instrumental for your album?" Himchan asked.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡloTupusGjF
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiyCuYrBa4V
"Of course we're," I answered, looking back at him. I now understood why he asked and I winced.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDpaZIIKoT7
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ur2T04jYH
"What is it, Sam?" Mike asked.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRBgJ8vds2j
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1VrcDbSJg
"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?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSH2xrWoILd
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8tivqV1f69
"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?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD59ote0QWU
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVIcAQMtnS
"Collins may agree. But what about Yang Hyun-suk?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrXuVxBCkC8
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJLVtrNX4P8
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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZuDR1Ek7w
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡINWHMENdwn
"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."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3AUTjBmZ8
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGFzNE3XvoY
"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?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKRhjvavtI
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLeemtt8DLj
"This is your tune and melody, Sam. So, he can't refuse. I mean, the song we did with BigBang was all you too."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJZpbxH3jh
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSK1DQnUKs
"It was?" Yong-guk and Himchan asked at the same time.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGu6eD6IyPT
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3E4myaxSJ8
"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?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4xM6YP571
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRESuNfrD9t
"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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZb3a1bZfY
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM7mUgmMAz7
"Does this thing involving me always have to be highlighted?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMPhDFoeOn
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNIDVuGxxu
"Daa, yes! Out of all of us, Yang Hyun-suk approves of you the most. He'll definitely go through with it."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfbltbXsz6M
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0swn4qsmE
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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcUQAQe9fsz
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPAwxRoSVqq
"Okay, if that's the case, than what of Yong-guk? Will he really help us through till the end?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuWOkJitNTV
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡehrlasOlZT
"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."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI2ptIQk5iz
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bAZzk9Y68
"I'm right here, you guys," said Yong-guk in between Mike and me. "I can clearly hear you."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzrT5cAyHyr
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29QGmLkivD
Mike and I turned to look at him, then ignored him like he wasn't there. Himchan chuckled.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4pKwZ1PabX
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaClhD6iBjp
"You're right," I said. "He'll stay till the end. He's such a good friend for helping us out."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8S2B83ssQM
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3aTO3zuPj7
"I know right," Mike smiled. "He's awesome."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiGiaOAtrMb
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOVhMCm8mXu
"I think you better focus on giving Collins a call, Sam," said Yong-guk, trying to sound serious, yet falling to do so.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwycPTja6Q
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKtf4m6KX8u
"Aww," Himchan complained. "Their conversation was just about to get more interesting."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGFtwZUlMLf
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpXVXU1Z69D
I laughed. "He's just trying to hide the fact that he's blushing."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLOYZL6L52T
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cLxn4vDsZ
"No, I'm not," said Yong-guk as he folded his arms and looked straight ahead, avoiding eye contact.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWRB7AbZKH
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFr4FCBlf24
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."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4mk4goTEU
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwBlwewtJs
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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzzV9WMQVp
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvIznTqL4YW
"I'll be back," I said as I tried to stop laughing. "You better not have that face when I get back, Yong-guk."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRKxnmAN2S
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDhxtcA4z2z
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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiNBSkBq8eP
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ21Y3FWbp3l
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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡblfOTh2YuI
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXocX7Gwl1h
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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBL45WgGSlW
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGOZb6buyLN
Just when I'm about to cut the call, he picked up at the last minute.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXcpKWXdtx
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtp8FL11Kpc
"Hi, Sam," came his voice. "How's song writing going?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTIyfZgCVIN
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1Hfk7emd2
"Not good, I'm afraid," I said as I scratched the back of my head wondering how to bring up the instrumental thing.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6GxObWKtLR
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPlxDif0Ml
"You'll figure it out. You do have extra help, don't you?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiCYe3KqLxl
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9INtdfIG7
"I see Lee told you about BAP."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEr7NHfy3oN
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjBKzO5CIzO
"Well, she had to. So what can I do for you?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lTury6MNj
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuXZJmuNWGA
"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."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtovvQfje3z
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz1vP53IBhf
"You're already coming up with that?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9xkmduaFy
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmoGGHczzwC
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."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dBVPlmUje
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5G9K1MbhkR
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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA1MSoERMXm
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFl1x7M4eIb
"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."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHHFTRNsXu
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3idLWyamaD
I knew it. I had to say something quick to convince him.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCknP6vC2s2
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNksheNedlZ
"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."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfR92lxV7Tv
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopV13Vi0to
"I believe you. But you know I'm not the only manager in this project of ours."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQggMAmjN1
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFK9SNcaRFF
"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."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCHvnGh00A
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5u5bMCFpae
"I don't have to talk to Yang Hyun-suk. He's right here with me. I put you on loud speaker."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBvaLg67FS
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiCgHFznNOo
I swallowed as I stopped pacing and my heart did one huge beat that I felt my chest hurt.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4oeKV4ECq
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVJ5Pmh4k8
"Oh..., good afternoon, Yang Hyun-suk sarangnim," I said quickly, so as not to seem surprised.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ53GbG3Btak
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jrKhkYhGD
"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."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4rltEyDxoZ
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAOxlsJrPAi
"And what do you think?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTBAYn9MfvA
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKdcAOmnwuU
"Well..., as much as the idea sounds tempting, I would actually refuse."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOufaXkqjM
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHL1ODSBUlz
My heart sank. I told myself it was worth a try anyway.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWXkcKasV8
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5stbq8zXEw
"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."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡncKBpg0glE
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zJMxVj5Q2
"Really!" I cried out in excitement. I can't believe he actually agreed.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡquNsFLNeJz
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqv6RxzoNJy
"Let's not forget that we're the ones that have the final say. If it's good, then we will proceed."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Ctt0tI262
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrx6opDD6yY
"Thank you!" I said with so much excitement. I could hear the two managers chuckle to themselves. "I promise you won't be disappointed."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbqqLx3b8yc
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtLeBfb51on
"Make us proud, Sam," said Collins. "I hope you'll be able to come up with lyrics."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gwM5OuByS
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOnjJWwUrYW
"I will. Thank you once again."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAjNwWUYDlA
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qTZaKrL7j
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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLLBuEHI3KU
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hyZMFyloq
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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktnm0BwUCA
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlgPSCHdWCd
"What's the news?" Mike asked as he looked at me.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsurXy6KzLF
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3uHEIOB62
"I hope it's good," said Himchan.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9uzs3072EU
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡggMlbEjXi4
"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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1cSTV1Dznm
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7mhk2NzJ5g
"They agreed," I answered.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFD81YGwdOP
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ugUApfYgn
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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNkIJnzqoW
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAkziTztIz
"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."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCNWMNwx5d
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnawgDKDpQF
"Ya, I'm also anxious to know what you're all talking about," said Daehyun.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlFTVVrXwUf
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZEqDtrmo8
"Me too," said Zoey. "What did I miss?"599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4WiTXzC4O7
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmwfchSWl1M
"A lot," I answered.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0b6dvwLgN
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4o5bNWVfNB
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.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs89TJ075sd
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbbza7bSFV
"Wow, that's awesome," said Zelo.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7tQhMHxkfP
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxyRVQsT87H
"You see how the managers just love you, Sam?" Mike asked.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQjQIiOQDc
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ExTh9RipK
"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."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjFiXLFfVrU
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPUDNoKn6Mx
"But for them to agree its because they know Yong-guk is an awesome producer," said Himchan. "No doubt it will be lit."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNbyidGew7M
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxchCOk4KHE
"I agree with Himchan," said Zoey. "And besides, it's more of Sam's original, so they can't say no."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE4bkr9BuFu
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1BLY1DHjvO
"Okay, we just need to focus on the instrumental and hopefully come up with the lyrics," I said.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQrLsBGAYRf
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGl2BzNaDqR
"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."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4tvTWAs8Zo
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2EklUjhFjh
"Okay," I said as I rubbed my hands together. "Toxins, get over here by the console, please."599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvmiajGpBnd
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqTc3NSWJuO
"Okay," said Christine and Zoey as they both stood up from the couch and quickly came over.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhPxZAr2EXC
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgq3RSB1XAt
"We will be here to help in anyway we can," said Young-jae.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Omx2aCioG
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWseuLSypy9
"Thanks, guys," I said with a smile. I went over to sit back on my chair next to Yong-guk.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxlj0mkR9ZY
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD39s96mOXJ
"Okay," said Yong-guk. "Let's continue where we ended, shall we?"
