“It’s just a sprain that will heal in a day or two,” said the handsome, male Korean doctor who wore a causal blue golf shirt with white chinos and matching white canvas.

Before the doctor and Lee could turn around to leave the lounge, Daniel and I quickly left our spot at the entrance of the lounge and silently ran down the hall, and entered one of the rooms with the door slightly open to peak in the hall.

The five of us all started to talk at random, saying that we didn't know why she left and that we didn't do anything. A look of confusion soon over Collins and he soon raised his hand to indicate that we should all stop talking.441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOdpd1EHE9

In ten minutes, we were already downstairs in the cars arranged for us. The five of us Toxins, Lee and Collins were in one car while the security detail were in two other cars behind us. Collins wasn’t joking when he said they will work on security. Hopefully, it won’t be too obvious to the fans or the paparazzi, especially the paparazzi.441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GeWVPb1rA

“Lee’s right,” said Collins. “The issue with Jehan wasn’t supposed to happen, but it did because we didn’t take a whiff of what’s going on. We let it slide, but this time around, I don’t want any of your silly plans taking course. Is that clear?”441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6Uc4DDF28
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlo0cBNmLYk

"I'm worried about GD," said Seungyoon. "Did he make it out of there in one piece?"441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBObtHcTnjf
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7x4rYAa3vk
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1cSR7vvGMm
"If anything happened to him, we would’ve known about it already," I said.441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCuytsMwESc
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4UFCiKsQjO
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ567INEqmIm
"True," said Lisa. "You don't mind if I try and call him, will you?"441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfhmJTyenIY
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6Km3xnzsn
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5MDOSR8o4
"I guess," I turned to look at Zoey who already had her head turned to look elsewhere. "Zoey is way more upset than we are, though."441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5GdQZywpH
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDkjP4lxOGc
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNObHLRkETM

Lisa pulled out her phone from her fancy blue purse and called G-Dragon. She even made sure to put the phone on loud speaker for everyone to hear.441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYcPJFM3ns
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡszbRxNKXJg
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYftt5p6aw
His phone on the other end started to ring. We all waited in silence for what felt like a minute when Zoey said:441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCopqqjElla
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCuBxe1TRYs
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtoyRM8G58q
"Something must have happened to him. Why isn't he picking up?"441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1DnpoPHG3K
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEbh8nQGIFO
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBoUMLHlkQ3
Then came a cracking sound and GD's voice came up, loud and clear:441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNEaq7Tbpu
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWyyzvWUdoo
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUVCp38PW9w

441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ96NBHYIadh
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkGAHhSbGJ
G-Dragon laughed a little. I couldn't help but feel there's something different with his voice.441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQivopeg7Dw

441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjP9dCr82J

441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr2QAEk4BEH

441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBbVsxRrzU5

441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF6mi11aAi9

Lisa quickly cut the call. Zoey suddenly burst out saying:441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡapUdEmb5V2
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1eJch3Edhl
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBY8KsTlwpn
"Wow, that's so typical of him. He even went to have fun with Johnny after the stunt he pulled?!"441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMifhzp4zoc
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAg368Hg7BK

441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhxW1mlBsL
There came a knock at the door. We told the person to come in. It's Lee, and she came in with someone: Bang Yong-guk.441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg2Ow9U8DXy
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTGGADFTkGD
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBNrhNAS3w
"Yong-guk, you're here!" Zoey exclaimed as she shot up from her seat and went straight for him.441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIy5fQm2ns3
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLrePgEDR0
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡogkzFgLZJY
"Hey, Zoey," Yong-guk nervously greeted her, stepping back a little so that he wouldn't bump into her.441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0bZvPPG4rx
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsRu6X8ZH5T
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnhOky6J03A
"Well, you're rather jumpy today," said Lee as she looked at Zoey with an eyebrow raised.441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJUg6YWngn
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6tLDCiZLBG
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk0RZERG0om
"You should've seen her when we were talking about G-Dragon just now," said Seungyoon. "She looked like she would punch someone."441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFz6TKa3eZo
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡttDAG1nKoB
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jO4cW7YZW
"Hi, Yong-guk," I said as I stood up from my seat and also approached. "For a second there I thought you weren't coming."441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4h4TyitsCr
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujVa8h8fj6
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLBu05kTSM

441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPnPhKp8NDQ
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPcKHuTMI0
I felt someone quickly rush up to me standing by my side. And in the process, pushing me a little. I held my ground so that I wouldn't find myself falling over.441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCdnFGZNu7r
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1AieunUSr
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdUazJOkMc
"Hello," Seunghoon greeted Yong-guk in Korean. I raised an eyebrow as I realised that he had his arm around my neck. I didn't want to admit what I'm seeing, but it couldn't be helped. Was he trying to mark his territory when he didn't have one?441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvPz9diBKC
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLaI7ypAniT
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvne1RbEml3
Yong-guk greeted him back and by the look on his face, he didn’t seem intimidated by Seunghoon at all.441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHXTtlXSSD
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoBCMoMlqFJ
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsNc3SnZikk
Everyone else came over to greet Yong-guk. Lee told us to settle down for the managers and the music producer assigned to help with our album will be arriving any time soon. We did likewise. And members from both Blackpink and WINNER couldn’t help but ask Bang Yong-guk some questions about the song.441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4zPwiisZY
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Q2ch4KTdj
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrv18LGPM6k

441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjaURWXqvGw
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjej4magFZ
"I just want to ask how you were able to come up with your amazing songs," said Mino.441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIndKJnRjLx
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGyAvw8TLZ
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0DyG681zIo
"One at a time, people," I told them. I sat in between Yong-guk and Seunghoon, and boy did it feel uncomfortable.441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP432DCWuWp
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ574uznt4dF
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbrfsTSzjt
Yong-guk chuckled. "I don’t mind at all," he said.441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALiXOQ4fHt
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWH086qR8zz
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmKv68iicMq
"You don’t have to worry about him," said Seunghoon as he leaned in a little closer on my shoulder. "He can take care of himself."441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6aWt8XG9E
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ff3pHDjE6
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDFnRRPbiI6
I rolled my eyes at him and he gave me that cute boyish smile. I couldn’t hold my laugh.441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbj1exbujry
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDi5XSIIg8
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb5UFJGvAxY
"Do you've the track with you?" Lisa asked. "Maybe we can listen to it a little before the managers get here."441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZwQUlf33bh
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHOIlmNXia
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwtjdhOW291
"Not when I’m around," said Lee who stood in the corner of the room. For a minute there we forgot that she is still around.441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMEAqL2SXE
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5bVg3eHl0
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtLKbr1U9Dm
"Oh, we didn’t know you were still around," said Rosé as she nervously chuckled.441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Dqll6jsQu
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNCtig8YsV
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazLeywr8E1
"Well, I’ve been told to watch over you," said Lee. "You might do something funny like you were about to just now."441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfQDpIvYtL
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaW80KRE7bJ
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3J7kWbA5Mq
"No we weren’t," said Zoey and Christine at the same time.441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ65XtUen8w
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTA0HVYthjw
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4gkqPzzaMU
Lee gave them a look that made them stare at the floor. The managers better get here soon. I could tell just how anxious everyone is that they can’t wait to hear the song.441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0GSESPX1Vx
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJ97FAVBMe
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOeK0FzA9PF
"They will be here soon, so I don’t understand why you’re impatient," said Lee.441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzONpO9BHmj
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOn7XERihIZ
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡonFy03tiRI
"I agree," said Yong-guk. "Let’s all just wait."441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtHWpmtBj7v
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdjPx0JTrg
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLR6yYLZDZ9
"They better be," said Jinwoo. "My ears are just itching to listen."441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlu5IHm3aoH
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMlJuY9xrY
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfEyWCOuiSb
We didn’t have to wait any further as there came a knock at the door and Lee told whoever was there to come in. The two managers and a man who I think is the producer, walked into the room. We all stood up and bowed our heads.441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYrnJ5OkGI
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4WvnWTYnK
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbyAZJ6AyH
"Sit down everyone," Yang Hyun-suk instructed and we did likewise. "I see everyone is here. I’m also happy to welcome our visitor, Bang Yong-guk."441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSsdaJzHi3
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvojjyWh9zg
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ZCvRE5i89
Bang Yong-guk stood up from his seat and bowed to the managers and the producer. He also thanked them for inviting him to the studio. Yang Hyun-suk also introduced the man who stood beside Collins as the producer who will help out with the album.441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvwHhlpwXXf
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2F5U8jK3qJ
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ20QWx4hoqo
"Okay, without further ado, we can dive right to what we came here to do," said Yang Hyun-suk. He started to make his way to the console and the music booth.441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaiGF8GFUTy
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvU0xbwtlc
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGSItjcdsaP
When we stood up to follow the manager and the producer, I couldn’t help but stay still while the rest went on ahead. I didn’t even realise that Bang Yong-guk still stood beside me until he spoke.441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHXohLbXN4
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshEMbNIXGy
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLCHpyvjUyA
"Hey, you’re nervous?" he asked.441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcaBoZMLUne
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHMHW4rTric
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGYfYamE9XM
I turned to look at him, surprised that he’s beside me. "Kind of," I said. "What if its not-?"441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvE8bKLdRnu
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOSiF4W1jnX
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMvyWDP1Ezb
He held my shoulders to turn me so I could look at him. I didn't expect him to be so close, and looking at him, straight on like this made me blush.441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6OjRNSggp
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLGmbd6rcu
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT79dTW6l5q
"Don't you trust me, Sam?" he asked.441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFjwD7LYCzz
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpLhOgUP6rD
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhdQxnmKwI
I didn’t expect him to ask such a question and I am left speechless. I cleared my throat to say:441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9SJzp8EOJA
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQS9gaCcZo
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4yxM9kGq0R
"Yes, I do."441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2wL58b4mD
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU4ekckKzJ5
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzI1B4P7nKf
He smiled at me and dropped his hands from my shoulders. He quickly held my hand.441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpXsI73dsRB
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY57jM10dzg
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALMtDDOUTy
"Come on, let's go," he said as he dragged me along to join the others.441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Cabg27laA
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjbjWQrbMF
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeX8fsO4Tx3
His warm hand around mine assured me that I shouldn't worry about what’s going to happen with the song. Even if the managers weren't going to like it, it's going to be okay.441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9V413PUyQ
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAnOoZlyoL5
441Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAKpbiZxGSQ
I found myself smiling at him. I couldn't have found any better way to calm my thoughts.
