Zoey's P.O.V1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4G0skKKLL
Waking up this Monday 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALVEn0del9
morning was hectic. I didn't want to get out of bed, but in one way or 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡogC9RUpKg7
another, I would have to. I lay awake, thinking. I didn't want to face 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXyvom8hz8s
off the challenges for today knowing that one of them was dealing with 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvybTzC3Si6
Jehan. Since I still have the teddy bear, I wasn't as free as I expected1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Yu23xk47x
myself to be.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJ3ZzCak9o
I couldn't stop 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47b2IJx0Yb
wondering what Seungri and TOP were doing at the mall yesterday. As much1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOjHpseHCol
as I wanted to believe that it was a coincidence, I couldn't help but 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwPt7A3zD7
feel that something was wrong.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRTVRvTmQTk
Could they have known 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvCkYQWEyp
about Jehan? And if they did, then how? I shook my head. Maybe all that 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5IQhpxhv1S
was nothing but a coincidence and I was just being paranoid. If they 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIVzQNQVoX5
really had found out about Jehan, they would have been asking questions 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqUIChOZatm
about him and what he does while we were shopping. But they didn't. We 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ojoHHG7OJ
just had our usual conversation.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2bxzryAW1
I brushed off all those 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3RhzxeTEw
thoughts aside when the alarm on my phone rang telling me to get up. The1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjMos0h293L
last time I had ever put up an alarm was the morning of my last day of 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmfiisthozi
high school. Eversince I became a musician, I never put up an alarm when1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfyXPQospjX
I knew I had someone around to wake me up. Like Sam.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcGRrf4UgW
But now that she wasn't 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvzQfj1glI
here, I had to wake up on my own. Most of the time, I would do so 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2nxjwbmwc
without her help. But when I overslept, she was always there to wake me.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡul93wx28gm
Anyway, right now, I was just too troubled in my sleep that I must have1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW4YoUaqZOE
woken up early before the alarm rang.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpFEYv5UOH
I sat up on my bed and 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvG3jWACzyX
switched off the alarm. I checked the empty bed beside mine and I 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ347KBUA7p6
couldn't help but realise how much I miss Sam. I don't know why I was 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCw1x1iyRe
feeling this way, but I hated the fact that I was missing her so bad. 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJLRsNWEMnF
Not after what happened yesterday at the mall and all over social media.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡytecEjVPox
After seeing her with 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAnaf8UqrIW
G-Dragon yesterday broke my heart further into tiny pieces. As much as I1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAeErS3v8VS
knew she was only there just to try and resolve things with G-Dragon, I1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaUVNd93z0f
was filled with fury seeing the two of them together. And to make 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4y29zNpr33
matters worse, after I had left the mall, I went online and there were 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ27SGqsXrh
pictures of the two everywhere. They were a trending topic for the whole1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xF6qr1qlN
day. That left me devastated.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dApwdxhZz
I couldn't stop looking 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3L8aI19rMH
at pictures online even when I came back to the hotel. I read so many 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBEPlcrvuO
comments. As much as there were so many haters around (like myself), so 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbON81cWKL
many people couldn't stop talking about how adorable the two looked 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmIijDVPOqG
together. I couldn't help but admit to myself that they were right. They1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzViuAiQwGU
really did make a cute couple. And that left me envious. I wished it 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHafoSxg6x
was G-Dragon and I. Not G-Dragon and Sam.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGiqoIU0e7
That sent me boiling to a1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHddMXROmi
point where I almost threw my phone away. When Christine came to see me1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5bFWNxIHjh
in my room and found me in an angry fit, I told her how painful I felt 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPyahqxgc5E
seeing G-Dragon and Sam together.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTq1U8cXWhM
Christine had told me to1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpeY7zJZmjM
cool down and that I shouldn't be jealous. She told me that Sam was 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3J37Ol5Vq
only with G-Dragon because she was only trying to resolve things. I told1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡca3rP9OcWS
her that I already knew that. Christine quickly left me to myself when 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGLwdwZaiq
she realised that she couldn't calm me down. So I was alone for the rest1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡej0BPSGSKj
of the day, not speaking to anyone. I didn't even join the others for 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqQefPUVyH
supper. I had ordered for my supper to be taken up to my room.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk0sAfejiAr
And now, I had to face 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkCN9lUkW5A
another challenge of seeing everyone today, most especially Sam, since 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLKQuffxuy
we have to finish up on the dance routine and start working on the music1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0cbUZFyXBR
video as soon as possible. I have to put up with all this today when I 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX04GqrXDV6
was still so upset.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhPAw7O5bZz
I quickly got out of bed and went in the showers, hoping the cool water would cool down all the boiling anger in me.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk3xsXpuG2R
After I was done, I 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJxhRBMCTR
quickly dressed up. And carrying my purse with me, I went to meet the 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRsTusIKcd
others at the dining table for breakfast.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwYSeyK2v3
I found them already 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3c8KvnZl34
settled. When I came to sit, everyone mouthed out a "good morning" to 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkkqDSnIc1
me, except Sam. And I replied back with a smile on my face.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dGTnoUic2
I felt a little awkward 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1l8Y1XqvYJ
when I looked at Sam who sat across the table next to Collins and hadn't1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoFeW4kikd5
said a word. She was busy with her breakfast, her usual bacon, eggs and1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbAJfRITbMC
toast with juice. I realised she hadn't even looked up at me once and 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTfydEqKqA9
that also felt weird.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzV0NwWyDXq
I know that she and I 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBsOMT7noKF
aren't talking to each other at the moment, but I expected her to say a 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFwHpdUX7oq
"good morning" or even look at me to acknowledge that I was around. She 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDieAOWFLFd
was one person even if we ever had an argument, she would at least try 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwjOqsdCG2
to say something to me. The fact that she didn't greet me, made me feel 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAz9bnLzVUI
like something was wrong.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwQM56cBIu
I poured myself a cup of1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLuFVzEAn4Z
coffee, trying to ignore what I was feeling at the moment. I got some 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqk6mb5Vg3
slices of toast and ate my breakfast.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡActBuCuHVD
"Hey, Sam," said Mike, who sat right next to her. "Have you seen what people have been saying about you and G-Dragon?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcPCw9IGA0
My heart almost skipped a1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLZQeDWeW0
beat and I almost choked on my coffee. What was Mike getting at? I know1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZnhEGtC6IX
he does things just to annoy me sometimes, but this time, he's gone way1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kI9CtboUx
too far. I was over here! Hello!1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxWsXY8vYT
"You don't have to remind me," Sam said as she looked at her brother. "I've decided not to go online today."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVBntVQWEhJ
"For one who doesn't like attention, you might just disappear off the face of the earth," said Collins.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hd8BnNkPB
"I can do that," said Sam, staring up at the ceiling obviously building castles in the air.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0MjBXlklNJ
"I have no doubt about it."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP6QXSLkhtz
"But I don't see why you1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4crBFR0v0
have to," said Daniel. "Just because people make stories about you and 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiysbcrfsgy
G-Dragon dating, doesn't mean that you are."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufpRYJj1wE
"One thing about fans is1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYQFFiP9Tz
that they can make a story so believable, even those who don't know 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKv5J2rFUl
what's going on, might end up believing it," said Christine.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDExR3lQEX
"I know," said Lee. 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Rpm8yP4gp
"Right now, some k-pop news sites are already taking this to the next 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSa4cm0btR
level. But they all say they couldn't be too sure about it until they 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC6s5VaZ3tB
get an official statement from you and G-Dragon."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpoKW0s2A3i
"Wow, that's serious," said Sam.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡINLnRGuw0h
"But right now, we have no time for interviews," said Collins. "We have a music video to work on."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83zzieBp5L
"I can work with that," said Sam, with a smile on her face.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5uqRMvX3C
"Alright, guys, finish your breakfast. You know the drill."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC9ziz9jH37
"Aye, aye," said Daniel.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimD327WCgi
"Well, you're quiet today, Zoey," said Christine as she looked at me. She sat directly across from me on the table.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUH6nKzXusb
"Do you have a problem with that?" I asked, eyeing Christine.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQBoJ0q26d
"You're just too quiet, that's all."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxuLvsujGsQ
"You should be quiet more often," said Collins as he got up from the table. "It kind of suits you."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAN6JJvdFdc
I frowned at Collins. "Thanks. I'll try doing so more often. That's if I really want to."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8aXSfTfPwz
"Now that's the Zoey I know," said Mike, raising his eyebrow at me and smiling.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUkyzvh2QBP
I stuck my tongue out at1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiSwZVUqH0U
him but he continued to smile mockingly nonetheless. I noticed that the1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWGGEZ6UM0
others were laughing and smiling at the whole thing, except Sam. She 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9DJn31cPk
still wasn't looking in my direction.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGdwCszEcOn
Soon after breakfast, we1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxxMGipaDAm
left for YG. In the SUV, Sam sat at the back with her brothers. We were1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI17v1og0O9
all chatting happily in the car but she was quiet the whole way. She 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmX3lUOzl3z
was like that nowadays, always lost in thought. I wondered what she 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFa5LMc8xN
could be thinking about. Sam was one person who never really shared what1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrGyWWFb4hS
she thought. When you asked her about it, she would usually say 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHRu277iShz
"nothing" and say no more. But if she really wanted to share with you, 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡriQzp8BXq6
she would.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZbk9mqvg8r
We arrived at YG and we 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLbE6UvMWQ
found ourselves back at the dance studio we were practising in on 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYAJ6ybHP86
Saturday. We found our dance instructor and all the BigBang members with1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1KnmEa8gk0
the rest of the backup dancers, waiting for us.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdBleADBhl
When everyone was 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkAAovr77G1
exchanging greetings with each other, G-Dragon didn't respond to me when1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnhpgPnhNcG
I said "hi" to him. Given with what happened yesterday, I bet he was 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5coxNbb2TW
still mad at me for how I behaved towards Sam. He didn't even want to 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBWNvPc9gR
hang out with us soon after Sam had left.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1K2H4EJAK
He not responding to me 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxbiIyY9FGm
felt awkward and I longed for him to at least give me some attention. He1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6rF1Rv5AF
didn't say "hi" to Sam either but just nodded his head when she greeted1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYvbK5pGS1G
him. At least that was acknowledging someone even if they weren't 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzlZ5rVLGbt
talking to each other. And he was staring at her the whole time even 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zTx5kXz3I
when she wasn't looking. I thought of throwing a shoe at him, but I just1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhStYATIWYd
looked away instead.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdbZFds9MB
We went straight to 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1fNGqE4S0
practising for almost a good five hours. And those proved to be the 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX2OrKpyH9B
hardest five hours of my life. Since the dance routine starts with 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfTurWtepl
G-Dragon and I, it was really hard having him so close. I realised that I1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKhDX7bkdo
still had feelings for him. At some point during practise, I almost 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3PsDvpYWi
hugged him, but I brought myself not to. And that wasn't the worst part.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjClhHvOas
During pratice, I 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ09sEv1wctA
noticed that G-Dragon still couldn't take his eyes off Sam. This was 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWa8ebwrVYc
getting to the point where I wanted to scream at him to snap out of it. I1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx8tyPm2ICZ
wondered what he saw in Sam and that sent me thinking.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXMxUCdAgt
G-Dragon wasn't the only1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡadZkq8TVe7
one who liked Sam. Come to think of it, Daesung also liked her. 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡagOtDdjFSl
Probably even Seungri and TOP, given that Seungri had a beautiful crown 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3CMLI6jK5v
made just for her and TOP flirts with her whenever he gets the chance 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIghxOuLeT
to. Taeyang already had Hyo-rin and always takes Sam like a sister. What1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLRjVirJWN
did Sam have that even most of the BigBang members like her so much?1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcfw0ImAvUY
As her best friend, I 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdDqTjqKdos
should be aware of her qualities. She was nice and friendly to whoever 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUa5zaRMdBk
approached her. She is very pretty and had a great body, though she was 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7nze0e6evj
never ever fully aware of her physical beauty. She always thought she 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcW641859i8
was like any other ordinary girl but she was more than that.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvccaaBaWx
She is also smart, 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZdILEImNIV
caring and always understanding. She is a great leader and one who 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzTFRc3f8P2
always had our backs whenever we needed it. I don't know how many times 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXW1alhH1K
she had always tried to get The Toxins out of trouble. I agree that even1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhoLIYGz03O
if it looked like we don't appreciate what she does, we really do.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkUYfepLurK
Sam has a lot of good 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4u5htxUCwu
qualities. Maybe that's why she is liked and loved by everyone. Even her1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcP7GTW8cBD
fans. She is honest, when she wanted to. She is also a pretty good 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkjQme3RjDs
liar, only when it was necessary to do so. And she is one who wouldn't 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmP5ZbNUIo
want to hurt anyone around her.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNrTuPOkIaM
Realising this made me 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPXdOkCMk9n
feel a little guilty as I looked at Sam who was dancing in front of me 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSNphCh6sYd
with Taeyang beside her. I looked at her face and she had this smile 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRVaOLjCLw
that reflected her innocence. I realised that I had been giving Sam a 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKgW2D5s9rM
real hard time after I found out G-Dragon likes her and not me. She is 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7CT8DFFTXR
my best friend and would do nothing to hurt me. I know she was only 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuzb0BlfupE
looking out for me like she always does, but I am just too ignorant to 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ptufHuwSM
realise it till now.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv7Kzo6Ty4Q
"Wait, hold on a minute guys," said the choreographer. We all stopped dancing as instructed.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4FMleeAQj4
"Zoey, you aren't 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzYkpQ5gpzJ
concentrating," said the choreographer as he looked at me. "This is the 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbOtDgtfJV8
second time you have made the same mistake."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1j7yEnVLFw
"Oh, sorry," I said, scratching the back of my head feeling embarrassed. "I'll try to be more cautious next time."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5W7DCYRc2
"Okay. Let's continue from where we left off."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡugPUlbIaRD
It was lunch the time we1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmpScTDDRy1
broke off for a break. The choreographer left and the others were 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVtyFtZr4L
talking to some of the backup dancers. I noticed Sam at the corner of 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡapA90YmBbH
the room with Christine and some of the backup dancers talking. It 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJVzNARGu0
looked like they were having one hell of a funny conversation because 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9D3rOIyUx4
they were all laughing.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRkkCpYd5NE
"Hey, why are you here all alone?" came TOP as he came to stand right next to me.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Z7sw3KrPS
"Nothing," I replied, looking down at my sneakers. "I just want to be alone today."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8n8EMjsRdO
"Still not talking to Sam?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ6h6XMP0ms
"Nope."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW5Zpgm7nm0
TOP's lips rose to a smile. "You really are stubborn."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFaUPN3S065
"Too bad it's in my DNA." I smirked.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEsxxBLpiX6
"And how long do you think you're going to put up with it?" TOP folded his arms as he looked at me.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡldadA51yNh
"Maybe till we go home." I shrugged my shoulders.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRrKdezJSq
"I doubt it. Judging by the way you performed today, you looked really preoccupied that you made several mistakes."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBWlfrKvXJE
"Being preoccupied is Sam's thing."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKcJAr4cjq
"I know. But you aren't 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0AHJbjAJLR
yourself, that's for sure. The Zoey I know wouldn't be here all alone. 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQYSPs5GBQ
You would be chit chatting like you always do."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3FsF77HHk
"What if I just want to be alone for today?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGyRHMTHUXQ
"It's okay. Everyone has those kinds of days. But you make it look like being alone sometimes is a bad thing."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhW9phwmkY
I frowned. "Why?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKyFHYQvOFu
"Because you look miserable."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQGbeVk1Yk
I didn't expect that coming from TOP. My mouth was agape as I looked at him.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BU1cBhdDF
"Miserable!"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2JVQEU22m
"Ya." TOP nodded his head. "It clearly shows."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6o9gk7oDd9
I thought for a moment 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjdF1rAuEk
and went back to looking at Sam and Christine with the backup dancers. 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBjV7GH1ql
Mike, Daesung, Seungri and Daniel had also formed their own little 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQkryuMLrbi
circle and were laughing and chatting too. Taeyang and G-Dragon were 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyN78GYiYne
with some of the backup dancers, having a normal chat.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ZoPQ2Byfn
Seeing all this in front1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV2futlMtZP
of me made me realise that TOP is right. I am definitely miserable. By 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDDa5hLtEx
now, I would be with the others, chatting. But here I was, all alone. 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs89dcpOfVc
Until TOP came to talk to me.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPketSpWij
"I guess you're right," I said. "I am miserable."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbaDhP8Z3G5
"Don't worry about it. Aren't you going to resolve things with Sam?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG51bwMmTrS
"I don't know," I said 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqp7KaR2lG
as I looked at Sam who was laughing out loud. "I'm still mad at her, but1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxO9uc9IZnV
something in me says that I can't stay like this for long."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNS8WBMRnyn
I told TOP what happened in the morning and how it felt weird that Sam didn't say a word to me nor even looked at me.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvG3FFCFh80
"I felt so bad about it," I said, shaking my head.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8OapfhcLwk
"Then why don't you talk to her?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhNgIO6Sws0
"Pfft!" I rolled my eyes. "Why should I? Sam always does all the talking."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDlK2O9xaGD
"Really? You think Sam would do that this time around? Besides, she wasn't really at fault with all this."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡveMptuHxhW
"I know."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4H3nuIQHQc
"So? Are you going to try and talk to her yourself?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw9NzQmoJUg
"I'll think about it."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcIAcz6sADA
"Hey, guys," came Seungri, suddenly calling out to everyone in the room. "Who wants pizza?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBH4sPYMzb
Everyone muttered out "me!" really loud. Seungri smiled and said he would bring the pizza.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5kYLxpXl9i
"Mind if you guys can help me?" Seungri asked as he came up to TOP and I.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2jMnJdRke
"Sure," I said. I really needed to get out of here for a while and breathe.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoO2NJTLlKs
The three of us went out1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyjl0gM9oXL
of the room and headed to the elevator to take us downstairs. Seungri 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnsrswMbaj
already had his phone out calling the pizza parlour to take the order.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxkBTszrfT8
As soon as we reached the ground floor, we stuck around in the lobby waiting for the pizza.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHInWTpmHVa
"I'm so hungry," said Seungri, staring at his watch.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRynLMZF4wM
"Chill, you just ordered1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlcdZ8vyPs
pizza like right now," said TOP who was sitting right next to me on one1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYswkCQ8xU
of the chairs in the waiting area of the lobby.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFiPZsFfOc8
"But I'm so hungry."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsbzjpkO3Mf
"Trust me, you aren't 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl66g28pvfW
the only one," I said as I looked at Seungri who was still standing. 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvTLNrYaGN0
"Sit down or else you're going to drain the last remaining blood you 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCfJgc0rYRe
have."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡReISgpPVar
"Well, that's mean," said Seungri as he sat next to me. "What's up with you?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgR7KnmFXPQ
"Nothing," I said as I folded my arms.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVTDHL8ZfOC
"She's cranky, don't mind her," said TOP.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxrCSdhHC4t
"I'm not cranky. Just having an awful day."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZKQHPNDM4
"Ya, we can see that," said Seungri with a smirk on his face.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKA14RVZJx6
I didn't say anything as1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwJ15peLkAT
I shook my head. All of the sudden, I felt my phone vibrate against my 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡttfWUaxxgt
thigh in the pocket of my sweat pants. I took out my phone. Jehan was 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1dBDrbjC3
calling.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1w08qaKMNm
"Isn't it that French guy we met yesterday at the mall?" TOP asked, looking at my phone screen.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxPoLyZPJm
"Can you please not look!" I said as I turned the phone screen away from TOP's eyes.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62c6JuGbIN
"Okay, well you better answer that call."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHru7g1MEo
I stood from the chair and answered Jehan's call when I was a few feet away from the two.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAsvndxNEo2
"Hello," I answered.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm527hw1eNJ
"Hey, Zoey," said Jehan. "Are you busy today?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2rCrlICYAX
"Ya, I'm very busy," I answered. "Why?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYFcdfUJXai
"We have to meet today, ASAP."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpbP1AiriJ
"But I can't. I have a lot to do today and I don't think I'll manage to meet with you."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAB6UgNrM3V
"I don't care. I need that teddy bear today. Not tomorrow, but today."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6T5jQ8a1ib
I knew Jehan was going 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdF1zJb17sj
to call and demand for the teddy bear. Luckily, I carried my purse with 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEyyWa2mGuc
the teddy bear in it. I hadn't removed it from my purse since yesterday 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2dhvIINZY
and I checked to see if it was still in there this morning. The purse 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQLAVFKCD8
was upstairs in the dance studio.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrRSqs6TWgq
"Okay, what time do you want to get the teddy bear?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOCXKXZxwr
"I'm coming to YG to get it."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGp3Cp5NF23
"What!" I was horrified and equally surprised. "No way. You can't come here."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyvsh0mpxJU
"Fine. If you have a better idea, then call me or text in the next thirty minutes. I have to get that teddy today."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3p6cPdr28G
"You don't have to remind me," I snarled.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe6fkw5MGlv
He cut the call and I 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGCuwSQb7a
looked at my phone like I was ready to throw it out of the lobby through1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmeecofCuLo
the open entrance doors. This was bad. Real bad. He wanted to come here1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIggn2PU6pd
to get the teddy. That was going to be dangerous. If anyone were to see1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyFliZXpb0e
him they would start to ask questions.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7MUF8Do7mo
"Zoey," came Seungri's voice behind me.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWluN2wydv
I turned around and there stood Seungri and TOP staring at me.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpBhh3lu2cv
"What?" I asked.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAIKAb1nWSF
"Was that Jehan you were talking to?" TOP asked.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TVM8IKgct
"Um, ya. Is there a problem?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSEvoixXhXv
"You two didn't seem to be having a normal conversation," said Seungri. "It sounded like you were arguing or something."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVKLC8B1SQ
"Arguing? Pfft. No," I gave out a small laugh trying to hide my fear. "It was just some silly misunderstanding."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyrTlnnFPKH
"Come on, Zoey," said TOP. "That was no ordinary misunderstanding and I know an argument when I see one."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuX80f6tdo4
"Guys, it's nothing. You're worrying for no reason."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNwh4y6KRvJ
"Oh, ya? Then why were you talking about that teddy bear then? It's that small cute teddy he had sent you, right?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlMOzW2SIa
Dang it! I was cornered 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1xkj47IgH
now. They had heard about the teddy. I couldn't come up with a lie. If 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaRjibyt35x
anything, I'm a terrible liar. Looks like the truth will always come to 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7obNDa2NjC
light no matter how much you try to hide it.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjP58VzyMX
"Tell us, Zoey," said Seungri softly. "It can show on your face that something is wrong."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamKXVZGTf6
I sighed as I looked down on the floor. "Fine. But don't tell anyone."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3uEspLhnx4
"Okay. Now tell us what's going on," said TOP.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdxqRCPZSd
We went back to settle down on the chairs. We were at a reasonable distance away from the receptionist so I could talk quietly.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4OQuKPQUoJ
I told them everything 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7af3IuPk6x
from what happened in Paris till now. They listened carefully and hadn't1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNdNxHYiLpe
said a word until I finished the whole story.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUh1MwSU7eX
"Have you told anyone about all this?" Seungri asked.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZUGRPceL2m
"Just you two," I answered.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsl6AQhDq95
"Wow, this is serious," said TOP, trying to take it all in. "He's a diamond smuggler?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIOdixfsmmZ
"Surprising, right?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN92ulOy60l
"He seemed so nice when we met him," said Seungri.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxyIxJIyzn
"We should involve the police," said TOP.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf37spVjq5h
"No! We can't!"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ffdBQZkvk
"Why?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4RpeVzg5t0
"You know word goes out 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlCitHLeYPi
fast. The next thing we know, it's going to be all over social media and1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn353aMWly6
might give The Toxins a bad name. I would rather do this quietly."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVbTEh5Q6o
"And how are you so sure he isn't going to use you again?" Seungri asked.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI8E2gwCRsb
"He assured me that this1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIEC0GdiWx
will be the last time he will ever use me to do any of his dirty 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRapENx65OC
business. I just have to give him the teddy bear and that's it."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGFE8XhOwOm
"Give who the teddy bear?" came Christine's voice.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxBqpJ4fxmn
The three of us turned 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbGI5sxsvjw
and we saw Christine standing a few feet away from us. We hadn't heard 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjG3y4PUAN0
the elevator doors open nor her footsteps. How did she get here unheard?1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡztXxgJj8rY
"Christine, you're here?" I raised my eyebrows.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq08slmLhxD
"Ya, I came to check up on you guys since some of us are really hungry," said Christine.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPaNX8QtSe
"The delivery guy hasn't arrived yet," said Seungri with a smile.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVlcUfIigc
"What's this about some guy and a teddy bear?" Christine asked as she looked at me.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMGyb7A0MY
"Ummm, it's nothing, Christine," I said, waving my hand in the air. "Just talking about some random stuff."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmoPRIa81ks
"Random stuff involving a1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxmQPDYYbWU
teddy bear?" Christine shook her head at me as she folded her arms. "I 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZoXIJenl5
clearly heard you talking about giving some guy a teddy bear and that 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgwIEunOIf
you won't have to do his dirty business anymore. I know you're hiding 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡug6w0McBAA
something from me, Zoey. So you better start talking."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkCR3YE2Mr
I rolled my eyes and sighed so loud in frustration. How many people was I going to tell the truth to today?1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHWS3JmkSLA
"Fine," I said, looking at Christine. "But please don't tell anyone about this."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvzCZv5w0H
"Okay, I won't."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5J2TrDvRM
"Sit down."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpoaVVjdZAH
Christine sat right next to TOP and she looked at me with anticipation.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvHygQX0rc
"I got myself into trouble," I started.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSy3dCwkvt
"Great!" Christine threw her arms in the air. "What did you do now, Zoey?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOCo8Iwmf1
"I got involved with a diamond smuggler."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4apeFKXmot
Christine's face soon 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKeegXmMnx
drained of colour and she looked as white as a ghost. She tried to open 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1sfxFMoc5H
her mouth to say something but she couldn't. Until....1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVlMZC6Wao8
"What!"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9OeoW8nmvW
TOP quickly covered up 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn8z8i4HGeM
her mouth before she could shout out anything else. The receptionist 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNNUxTEXRnh
looked our way and soon went back to work. When he was sure she had 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs8oy1XNhOU
cooled down, TOP removed his hand from Christine's mouth.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6PLomytUI
"Are you cool now?" TOP asked.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3hMBntHgzD
"Cool?" asked Christine, sounding anxious. "I come here and hear about some diamond smuggler. How can I be cool?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxY6ik98dG
"I know you're really mad at me right now, but you asked what was going on," I said, looking apologetically at her.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZeEjN4B6o
"Of course I'm mad!" 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5mnK8FM70U
Christine whispered angrily at me. "I know you always get in trouble, 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy25osQbUoH
but this by far is the worst one of them all."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcyUDslDco
"At least it's not a drug dealer," I said shrugging my shoulders.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8siAfVii7
"Is there a difference? Seriously, Zoey. How the heck did this happen?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQj49ViUvV
"It happened in Paris," I said. "Remember the guy I introduced you to at the fashion show?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmg30utNdnj
"Ya, I remember. What about him?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCqW8qRhJtj
"He's the diamond smuggler," said TOP.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4s68KFeyK
"WHAT!"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNpWJz5SGSx
"Ssh!" TOP, Seungri and I hushed at her at the same time, putting our fingers on our lips.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKJCftDUH9
"Guys, I can't help it, sorry," said Christine. "Wait, that handsome guy is the diamond smuggler?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPY20zP94H1
"And the one I met at the café," I said.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhwOpkXgy5
"So he is the one who sent us the teddy bear?" Christine asked.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ70l2665RBs
"Yes," the three of us answered at the same time.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYOI0Fs3pwT
"But why does he want the teddy bear back?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPk7yznshCk
"Because the teddy has diamonds in it," said Seungri.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDgY4Z7Yuha
"Wow, seriously?" Christine's eyes bulged out with surprise.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtPcySLfFmb
"Ya," I said. "I planned1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVaxTJZVFZ
on giving him the teddy bear yesterday but I couldn't because these 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRppE7wfYYb
guys showed up." I pointed at Seungri and TOP with my two thumbs.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRIwz6xY4tG
"So you're the one who 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvOFhLZb7s
got the teddy from our room yesterday," said Christine. "Lee was 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltbnXR01CP
searching for it and couldn't find it. She thought she must have 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRtDF8PYFIM
misplaced it somewhere. You even went to meet him? I thought you went 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvvpN2C9xzX
out with Seungri."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzi1LfGfN3p
"I lied."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTtmOWe5j5
Christine shook her head. "I knew something was up. You are really not good at lying."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjA1lbJ7Om
"I know." I gave Christine a grim look, not feeling impressed about myself at all.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnJl2XLVagy
"Why didn't you tell us you were being threatened by this guy?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSntvxUIzs0
"I wasn't supposed to. And besides, it was too dangerous. He threatened me with a gun in Paris not to tell anyone."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzmghPIYt4M
"That's great. There are guns too. Blackmail would have been so much better."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPw5K0sQCow
"I know. Now he wants the teddy bear back today. And I don't know what to do. He wanted to come here and get the teddy himself."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIFd5wkSKwQ
"Then why didn't you let him?" Christine asked.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQOKDbFwp21
"That was going to raise a lot of questions if anyone saw him," said Seungri.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6vWQRu2mD
"Now where is she going to meet him now? She has to take that teddy bear away or else it could land us into more trouble."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYXYp59wh9
"He said I should have a location as to where we meet," I said. "And I haven't thought of anything yet."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGJQuV4l5a
"Why don't you meet after practice?" TOP suggested.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGMzddjTbO2
"But where?" I asked.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjSopoSc5UG
"Tell him you will meet at the café. The one you had met him in last time. TOP and I will take you there," said Seungri.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFzzSb3lSbX
"I'm also coming with you," said Christine. "And don't refuse." She pointed her finger at me when I opened my mouth to object.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6hNNMN3QY
"Fine, but remember, don't tell anyone," I said.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGv6qQ1BnKj
"Got it," said TOP and Seungri at the same time. Christine nodded her head.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGmD2S8Bbz
I took my phone out and 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgsyinSPN6
texted Jehan that we should meet at the café after practise some time in1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTUwe4ExFhk
the evening. He replied saying that he would be there.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRL9yCoXiv0
"Okay, it's settled," I said as I put my phone back in my pocket.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB5hhDqCUNT
"Yay! The pizza is here," said Seungri as he stood up and approached the pizza delivery man coming in through the entrance.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH53FWhRoMt
Seungri had ordered ten 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXlrhIA54Ul
large sized boxes of pizza, enough for everyone upstairs. And the 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwGuVIYtpW
flavour, mac and cheese. Sam's favourite. Well, almost everyone's 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFNnxKQi7sz
favourite.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ82huiHkA2c
We helped Seungri with the pizza and went to the elevator which took us back up to the floor of the dance studio.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQ3h08jkhm
"When all of this is over, Zoey, you're going to get a scolding from me," said Christine, as we walked down the hall.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡODClDTogPn
"I'll be ready for 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡju7QDdEnjg
that," I said as I rolled my eyes. "I just can't wait to have everything1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRiwZsEXK2C
back to the way they were. Before all the threatening."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYMBUA5MMt
"No, they won't," said Seungri. "You still have Sam to resolve things with."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrR47D0gKVi
"And G-Dragon," TOP added.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtx4K9HvZ5t
"Can we please not talk about that?" I asked. "You don't have to remind me all the time."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWEfV0Nfvl
"Well, someone has to," said Christine.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOsDwBbCx0N
"Just so you know, I'll agree to resolve things on my own terms."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoawjSKbqfM
"Jeez," said Christine, rolling her eyes at me. "When you say that, I have to get ready for the unexpected."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqviLmHCZoa
We found ourselves back 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGk0mko1h1V
at the studio and this time, I found Sam talking to Taeyang. G-Dragon 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYFXRpmsoza
was still talking to some of the back up dancers and I could see him 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnSaMEORRsE
staring at Sam through the corner of his eye. Or was that me being 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQn3fnWAVj
paranoid?1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJ3n0v4vk1
Christine snapped her fingers right in front of me and I turned to look at her.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRoTx1l6RZR
"What?" I asked.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm58eKhtwi6
"You were frowning," Christine answered.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhKxtlcqDc
"Frowning? I wasn't frowning."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPJWLQlhbl
"Says the person who 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6h6lrbax9R
couldn't stand seeing G-Dragon looking at someone else." Christine gave 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoRP4mGRe4h
me a smirk and left me standing all alone by the door, while she joined 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg8nU2RwS8g
the others who had soon formed a circle around Seungri and TOP.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYGaME1btj
Soon after lunch, we 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZCllbdixA
went straight back to practising. This time, for a good six hours. We 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlL6MIh2LWn
had to do the dance routine over and over again to perfect it. This time1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGTrK4QSAHi
around, I made sure not to make any mistake like I had been doing 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3vhsjZU9nd
earlier. This time, everything was coming out perfectly and I don't know1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2VAEt7gUUP
how many times we had to do the routine all over again. But despite the1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59DfOWSiSG
number of times we did it again, we had a whole lot of fun.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRm5D3TeYY
At some point in the 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmrFDhN4lU4
afternoon, our two managers and Lee came over to check on us and they 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpLn56hMGjZ
were really impressed. Yang Hyun-suk thought filming the dance practise 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEYHECHzXr2
will be helpful and that they would release it after the music video. 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZ5q7qnMsd
The dance practise was shot and it came out perfect, but still, we went 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlwsX2r2qQ
back to practising until we could pratice no more.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9VM6nWTe7
It was five and the sun 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySCJWYPaLh
was setting when we were finally done for the day. I was so tired that I1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡePhVTL7cLe
was lying on the floor. My body aching everywhere. Luckily, I wasn't 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRRPrDEa843
the only one on the floor. Christine and Daniel were lying on either 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfMsQiMSPGT
side of me. We were all pretty tired.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3gv1cruYF
The choreographer had already left and the backup dancers also started to leave. G-Dragon and Taeyang left together.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJignoVbVRL
While I was resting and 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmykorSgmXI
gathering up any ounce of energy I had left, Seungri was standing next 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZGV3nK38T
to my head and looking down on me. I looked up at him with a puzzled 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC6p6vZ0Ft4
look on my face.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66obraoFI1
"Get up, Zoey, we gotta go," he said.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4lnjfywLz
"Go? Go where?" I asked.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSo063YIgO3
Christine roughly nudged me on my side with her elbow, I looked at her with a whining look on my face.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjwVzcx3Pn
"Ouch, that hurt!" I said.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgqMNp1YdKZ
"Are you forgetting, Zoey?" Christine asked, raising her eyebrows. "We have to go somewhere to do something."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa8JOFkiZAf
It was then that I remembered that I was supposed to meet Jehan at the café. I totally forgot.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMxaxofXMIF
"Oh, ya!" I quickly sat up on the floor and Christine followed. "We have to go."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJWl0j6lm3
"Go where?" Daniel asked, still lying down on the floor and looking at us.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYTmtjGaI7
"No where," I answered quickly. "We're just planning on going around the city for a drive."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkuIul7xqmj
"I want to follow too," said Daniel.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3WM5GrfYxT
"Where did you say you were going?" came Mike who had been talking with Sam and Daesung.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74GBsDKpyD
I rolled my eyes. Seriously? The last thing I want is for everyone to follow and find out what's going on.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZPFz8lb2ON
"It's nothing really," said TOP. "We were planning to drive around the city. You don't have to follow."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9tYE7W5Nj
"But this is not fair," said Daniel, sitting up quickly. "I also want to come along."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN5qmDmbjP3
"Ya, me too," said Mike.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZIFaYtruFx
"Why don't you want 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhJKlcJW10
these guys to go along?" Sam asked. I noticed that she still wasn't 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBK5RCojJ4N
looking at me. "You're just going for a drive. I see no reason for them 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkEbufPViFI
not to follow."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3e4rlH2qgk
I wanted to protest and 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAVkxQ6GHM
refuse but then I realised that I wasn't supposed to talk to Sam. And 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCxyGTWC6M
refusing her was going to be pointless because I already know Seungri 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQfFZA14xK
and TOP weren't going to deny her so easily.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNstooWjLZd
"Okay, they can come along," said Seungri.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDtb7JDghg
Dang it!1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlYilnlHVem
"Okay, you'll find me back at the hotel. I'll tell Collins that you had to go out," said Sam to the others, giving them a smile.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVQ3wht73d
"I can take you back to the hotel if you want," said Daesung, addressing Sam.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYblrCNKkf0
"Thanks, that's nice of 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVD0NBxbwaA
you, Daesung," said Sam giving him a sweet smile. She turned to look at 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXFcHKhRhl
the others. "Have fun you, guys."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVnhtyEb2Y
Sam and Daesung left the1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡabeYILCONG
room together and I couldn't help but look at the door and think to 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVWRJHeWACF
myself that the two also made a nice pair.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKdesE8BGU9
"So, where are we going?" Mike asked.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZgSK0LZ8J5
"Please, don't ask any questions," I said as I turned to face him. "It's none of your business."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCtvMhhtq7K
"Mmm, seeing the look on your face, something's up," said Daniel.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySDCs0XyAI
Christine stood up from 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9R1M7XC6H
the floor and said, "look guys, if we tell, you have to promise not to 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqddlpLX61i
tell anyone. Not even Sam. No one."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnP9KHsYWDn
I looked up at her with my eyebrow raised. "Are you seriously going to tell them?" I asked.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvJtyY88TF
"Do I have a choice? You know how persistent these two are and they are probably going to find out anyway."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYHE6xu9Fh8
"Ya, Christine's right," said Seungri. "And we also couldn't refuse Sam for them to come along."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlts2RfiwV3
"You just couldn't refuse because you like her too much," I said, turning to face Seungri.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdq6K6iddC
Seungri shrugged and smiled. "What can I say? I've to obey the lovely queen, right?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKvt4K2eDp5
I almost snapped back at him but I controlled myself and looked away.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzHjJslAag
"Okay, can we focus on telling us what's going on?" Daniel asked.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMbJUGIIdH
"Fine," I said. "Someone tell them. I can't keep repeating myself with all this."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorUQ9SaaII
TOP told Mike and Daniel what was going on. The two brothers were shocked after what they heard.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0DEdLG5mi1
"Oooh, you're in a lot of trouble now, Zoey," said Mike, looking at me and shaking his head.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg79ST7cZ94
"You don't have to remind me," I said rolling my eyes.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfdcRCNdMEH
"I can't believe that guy is the diamond smuggler," said Daniel.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbC1kCL6ST
"I know," said Christine.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUdJxprb2t
"You haven't told Sam about this?" Mike asked.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu69XyuvNgR
"No. No one has to know," I said. "Not even the police."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhcM90iDhGh
"I think you should have told Sam," said Daniel.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxBii2c7p2
"So that she can judge me? No way."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7sqHxgo2w4
"You know Sam can never do that," said Seungri. "She would have helped in any way possible."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9typxz8PVZ
"Don't try to convince 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡirDvbGr6Um
her of anything," said Christine. "She probably won't listen like she 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafqZOuxFin
always does." I raised an eyebrow at Christine and she looked back at me1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡajHiHMQ5nI
like she could hit me with a hammer.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVLaPTr0Zi
"Okay, let's go," said TOP.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzWle7bEVMg
I got up from the floor 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0LUGfj9Mq0
with Daniel and I took my purse. We soon left the room and headed 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxf2CvV6HjM
downstairs. Sam and Daesung had already left since there was no sign of 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVWmcECWR27
Daesung's car in the parking lot. Christine and I went with Seungri in 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1nUozsQ1Fv
his car while Daniel and Mike went in TOP's car.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkiCz204ti
The cars soon left the 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaghKZiAkqJ
YG premises and in the car, I couldn't help but feel nervous. What if 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTu1qczc2YK
things didn't work out like it did yesterday? I hope not. Every now and 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDsSwpFbSs
then, I would open and check if the teddy bear was still in my purse.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwIj6bASIXx
"Can you you please stop1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlK2HfQPdT
doing that?" Christine asked from the back seat. "You might just drop 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1rXsv964SF
the teddy and lose it in the car."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpIBwJIFFR
"Stop joking around," I said as I turned to look at Christine.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJW8ybmwhhj
"Well, then stop getting nervous. We're all here with you so there is nothing to be worried about."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrFGwO8zjm
I leaned back on the chair and tried to relax. "You're right," I said. "I need to relax."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5KWrlsb9Cx
"Don't worry, we're almost there," said Seungri as the car took a turn.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzeiz4aZ0rG
"I just want to get this over with."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5r9fZFnLc4
We were soon packed 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZUMKi3YoPh
right outside the café and TOP's car parked right next to us. I took a 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1RfiW7Tklr
deep breath. Christine came over and put her hand on my shoulder. I 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4pWPGG9kY
turned to look at her.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzjvOQ4Wi3X
"Everything is going to be okay," said Christine giving me an encouraging smile. "If anything happens, we'll be here."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJNiRk8ES5
"Thanks," I said with a smile. "I'm glad you guys are all here."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqf1puFnPBG
Seungri also turned to 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzoVgkZbigW
smile at me. I don't know what I would have done without them. Their 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9wXYGtAOC7
presence here gave me a little comfort. But I felt a small hole in my 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdIQ0fNO9fl
chest and I wished Sam was here too.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsYBVZ7jA6K
I soon got out of the 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ92Y9umYWMU
car and there was a sudden chill in the air. Maybe it's because the sun 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kXXku45wY
was setting that it started to get cold. I had my purse in my hand and I1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkEspSEpDO
looked towards the café. I hope everything will go as planned.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCCFWAISeZ9
Before I could find my 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAYdDNXAzMG
way into the café, TOP, Mike and Daniel waved at me through the windows 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoPGssX0pQr
of TOP's car and giving me a thumbs up. I smiled a little and waved 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn1TxdHsEb9
back. At least that gave me the confidence to go ahead.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfMYfBr5FP
I quickly went in the 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl3juhpEtOX
café and when I slowly stepped in, I looked around for Jehan. I spotted 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLbF0WNG4b5
him right next to the huge glass window where we had last sat down 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvlrSgiQBQ
together. He was alone in his smart pressed black suit, as always.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5G4CVOCMP
I slowly approached the 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6rS5UKyc2f
table. His eyes never left me since I walked in the café. When I got to 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXDIRDgVUvp
the table, I sat facing him. My heart was beating so fast. I don't know 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVm3OF0aC2
why I was so scared that things might go wrong and Jehan wouldn't 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAiGGkdAIKd
hesitate to end my life right here.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrC9plu7ELM
"I'm glad you could make it," said Jehan. "I was almost about to call my driver to come pick you up."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnI5kjvsdEA
"I was practising today," I answered.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYC2r0C69Q
"You look really tired. It could show all over your face."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVRFGN6Ier
"Thanks," I frowned at 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUILtATWkK
him. "Can we get this over with? I still have a busy day tomorrow and I 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATCPHEsZS9
would like to get this teddy bear off my back."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs5rSpcsZrY
Jehan smirked. "Certainly."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEpQOdiVkCL
I quickly reached out 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtGdACkZ30
for the purse on my lap, opened it and gave him the teddy bear. Jehan 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJ3TzkTlmH
reached out to take it and I couldn't help but feel relieved.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpw2OdqZIcQ
"There! You have your teddy," I said. "Can I go now?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqiEMayiya
"Wait." Jehan held up a finger when I was just about to stand up and leave. I sighed.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5U8GSai2pd
"What now?" I complained.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVbSy4ziJQz
"I need to check if all the diamonds are in here," said Jehan, shaking the teddy in his other hand.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC07dMzVUF6
"What do you think? That1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvpuFh971Jm
I would steal from you?" I was really surprised that he didn't trust 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡanUEGMe1wf
me. "You pointed a gun to my head in Paris and I have done everything 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Aq1nwRRKD
you have asked until now. What makes you think I would steal your 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9tqPy1JPzx
diamonds? I have a life to live, may I remind you."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaZFSZybk1H
Jehan raised an eyebrow 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6EYLFdAZbl
at me. "Nice one, Zoey. You almost had me convinced. But I'm still going1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwKbblaLVi
to check. I've to make sure all the diamonds are in here before I make a1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJeTx1lVFZg
fool of myself in front of my clients I'm selling these to."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8UixR9mEz6
"Fine." I folded my arms on the table. "If you don't believe me, then check it yourself. I know I'm innocent."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8fl0df4SXY
"I know you're." Jehan gave me a smile and I looked away facing the window. It was getting really dark outside so fast.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZLmDGJCP2
I went back to looking 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyeIxT2nzJz
at Jehan who had laid the little teddy bear on the table and he dug into1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfRyAjKmkhJ
the pockets of his suit and removed a small pocket knife. It didn't 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU4z18DFV6F
surprise me that he carried that thing around.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7VADHOK9qg
Jehan slowly laid the 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6IL9vpvsZN
blade onto the little teddy's belly and cut through its tiny suit, 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡccOgxyaoOT
dissecting the teddy bear. This reminded me of science class back in 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxm8XlTF2dx
high school when we were told to dissect a frog. Doing that was so 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrZFucvge3
disgusting that I ended up purking all over Sam's shoes, who was my 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzxUI8ovAGS
science partner. This time, it was just cotton stuffing that came out of1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpus0pcUe1V
the teddy bear.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQLLGrVn30
Wait. I frowned. This 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmfWSzU1xV
isn't right. I raised an eyebrow when Jehan kept on removing cotton 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvy9jUt56F
stuffings and there was no sign of the diamonds. Where were the 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9O5oIAVTLD
diamonds!1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMqAA3hnvDv
I stared horrified at 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡey9DoBIBGC
the scene on the table. There was tiny cotton stuffings everywhere and 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡScSFTWaD1p
the bear that laid stuffless on the table was a sad site to see because 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9aYpaM7qN8
there was nothing in it. No diamonds.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFaZPFNbjC
I looked up at Jehan and1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5FFoEGZbM
he was as surprised as I was. His mouth was wide open and he couldn't 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV5HjJIwfak
stop looking at the dissected teddy. If he kept on looking at it like 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDIojLrVw7
that, he was going to end up traumatised.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB5MvMQfyw8
"Je-Jehan," I said 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe4Fy2IYmFP
softly. Hoping he wouldn't bite at me like a dog with rabies. "Jehan. 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwc5BbNYp1R
I...I have no idea what has just happened, but, there are no diamonds in1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Lhb27eHL7
there."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMHLIaF4um
Jean neither moved nor 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxzdmqqSEC1
said a word. I was getting worried. Should I move him to try and snap 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4MwBQkXbBw
him out of it? I didn't know what to do.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7f8B0b2sG
But how could this be? 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK49iHc7bvY
Where did the diamonds go? It's not like the teddy bear could just poop 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBnDK22iewm
out diamonds since it wasn't alive or anything. Something weird was 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuAuz9z3RUD
going on. And I wasn't like liking it at all.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMpGyxYqGU
"Where are my diamonds?" Jehan muttered silently, still looking at the scene before him.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaNErLn38RC
"I...I don't know," I said shaking my head. I was scared of his reaction and I prepared myself for it.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ75OLNvEFei
He banged his fists on 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj18ZWvpHsz
the table so loudly that he startled not only me, but everyone else in 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEAuoGlyJYF
the café. Everyone turned to look at us and I looked around then back at1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1tLCSoM7cJ
Jehan, whose eyes were as red as a bull's, staring at me.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhAmDxU5u4B
"Jehan, chill," I said, putting my hands up to calm him down. "Let's not try to get angry here."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz1RoWs4MDy
"Where are my diamonds, Zoey?" This time he didn't shout but the anger in his voice got me shivering.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzsxobZNY2
"I don't know. I don't 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCMZWq3KX8I
know what's going on right now. This is the same teddy bear you sent us.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ErWmyuBl4
I don't know why it doesn't have diamonds in it."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHN6Np8lyp
"How did the diamonds go missing?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX40gRmYHzy
"How am I supposed to 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ20eNoEizx
know? I just kept the teddy for you. Maybe you sent me the teddy without1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPWW7wWKIm8
diamonds in it and you probably never noticed."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Uvi6FTZMG
"Don't doubt what I do, Zoey! I made sure I made no mistake."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ122xKFJzWB
"Okay, chill, I believe you. Look, why don't we try to sort this out calmly? Getting upset won't do us any good."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYtorDaNayZ
Jehan rubbed his 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBmxuOIs4Q
forehead and sighed as he leaned back further into his seat. He seemed 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcKCWmwmiEQ
to have calmed down when he looked at the teddy bear again.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGuM1Z3pXNt
"I need my diamonds back, Zoey."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVpb4aSTbC
"I know. You've said that like almost a hundred times now."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3nSDWHVM5
"Let's not joke around here. What happened? Why does this bear have no diamonds in it?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJhJ5rDqJc
"I didn't do anything. I swear. That teddy was just the way it was eversince you sent it."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamfA2yS8on
"Then why doesn't it have diamonds in it?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5tQcDbSAfd
"I don't know."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTqYbS1e77w
Jehan looked at me with an eyebrow raised. "Who else had this teddy apart from you?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡirpLRzywhA
"Ummm," I looked down 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLOspftESbL
and played around with my fingers. "Uh....I wasn't the one who had been 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1HDF26jDO
taking care of the teddy bear this whole time."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDEh0KrEbr
"What?" Jehan sounded surprised. "What do you mean?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWoqAtsmxro
"I didn't have the teddy bear with me at the hotel the whole time," I said, looking at him fully in the eyes now.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9VjgdcVCjN
"Who had the teddy bear?" Jehan leaned closer, his eyes not leaving mine.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ESampKeSg
"Lee had it before I took it from her yesterday."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmjkkNuQqnl
"Oh, my gosh!" Jehan 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16M7k6YaGM
covered his face with his hands and I could see this wasn't going too 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRlSeWzOael
well for him. "Could she have the diamonds?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7s17RjFtbr
"I don't think so. Lee 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFhcjqWZig
is an honest person. If she did notice there were diamonds in the teddy,1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOM3p7H9h0S
she would've said something. No way. She can't have the diamonds."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCGX5wNcN4
"Then how do we explain all this! She was the last person to have the teddy, correct?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHVRBBAtBpq
"You're right. But if she did find out about us and all this diamond business, she wouldn't keep that to herself. I know Lee."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡneUrLulmRd
"Maybe you don't know Lee well enough. If this is the same teddy I had sent, where could the diamonds be?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4NepzY9iAn
"Maybe this is just another teddy bear and the actual one with the diamonds is still at the hotel."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksgY5YsQbE
After I said that, Jehan1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvcjSWoVUJB
quickly took the dissected teddy bear in his hands and looked at it 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9JbTOEARk
carefully. He turned the teddy, looking at its back side and tearing the1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2YzCvLfLz
suit away. I wondered what he was looking for because he had a serious 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDn9RydR3NA
look on his face.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg4GO0nnf2m
"You're right," said Jehan. "This is definitely another teddy bear and not the one I sent you."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXRwD2byrI1
"Wait, how do you know?" I asked.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXq1wZEpOII
"I remember one of my 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5mymJPvKOJ
men who sewed the teddy bear after putting diamonds in it at the back. 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4uSyeLrWy
There should have been some stitching here but this one doesn't."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWk62kKF04z
"Ha!" I snapped my fingers. "I knew I was right!"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT8LY8lOjVq
"Don't snap your fingers and be all happy about this," said Jehan, back to giving me that angry look. "I need that teddy, now!"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5OC9J25ru
"Huh? I can't start 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf12PLIJ02k
searching for it now. It would look suspicious. And I can't start asking1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAKzcoDbZw
Lee if she bought another teddy just like this one. She already knows 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoB37269STs
that the bear is missing."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD10sVD5Dss
"Then maybe, Lee isn't the only person you should be asking."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIu2VNUqldQ
"What do you mean?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4gnchLQsPi
"Someone else must know where the other teddy bear is. Your group members perhaps."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj954pCXZsl
"No. I highly doubt it. Lee must have bought another teddy and we just didn't know about it."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHQwk47tNj
"Now that, makes no 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLk3J4nj3j5
sense. If I were you, I would go back and find out what happened to that1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSCj90eOv8B
teddy and ask around for it. I'll need that teddy tomorrow."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHFKPtoW5K
"Tomorrow! Are you nuts!"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0tsOI2en19
"Maybe I am because I'm desperate to have those diamonds back."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalJomMjQp0
"I might not be around tomorrow. I have a music video to shoot."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs8lEtJjzgr
"Find those diamonds and you will be scott free, Zoey. Or do you want everyone to mourn over you when they find you dead?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3n5BsyenlR
I completely forgot that1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvqfVs2okIt
I was being threatened by this guy. Though his threats didn't scare me 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAsY7KYeEz
anymore, I just had to abide to everything. Who knows, he might not have1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjRQDYeQHZw
me killed, but he could hurt the others and it would be all my fault.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKksj1fYNDQ
"Okay. I'll see what I can do."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJ94b5j89a
Jehan gave me a smile. 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ZFxlf9vXQ
"That's more I like it. I would start working on this soon if I were 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVm4KseJI0o
you. Try your best to find the bear by tomorrow, will you?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFSKDAREIB
I nodded my head and 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP3HLrzKTmL
that made him smile even more. He soon stood up from his seat and looked1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOxOtVnQ2e
down at me. I looked back at him without a saying a word.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Ar1xNJjb5
"See you tomorrow," said Jehan and he quickly walked out of the café.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEhxdyO3If6
I sat there as I buried 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcgoixqNGCu
my face in my hands, thinking of what to do. Again, everything was 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcgq6ITsgv
ruined. First, the interruption from TOP and Seungri yesterday. Now, the1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtuhjPstx4Y
teddy bear had been swapped with another. My life couldn't get any 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡteQGKjMwIp
worse than this. What was going on? Who was putting me into so much 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpX7y3HT5C
drama that might just ruin my life?1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwto56WXNbV
I hadn't noticed the bell of the café ringing because I felt a hand on my shoulder and when I looked up, there stood Christine.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqtwMYVmZE
"Zoey, what happened?" Christine asked, as she turned to look on what was on the table.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaubvqvmlJ5
I could hear footsteps 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRkTe6bquZa
behind me. The others had come in the café too. They all looked worried 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq5MrKdyvHA
when they saw the look on my face.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0bVIR4TJhy
Christine sat where Jehan had been a few minutes ago and looked at the tattered teddy bear on the table.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvGbEN49hx
"What's going on?" Daniel asked. "And what happened to Mr Teddy?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqTEVTj35K8
"Jehan didn't look happy when he left the café," said TOP. "Didn't he get his diamonds?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5kUL5XRB5
"No," I answered. "He didn't."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQIbgnX205N
"What?" Seungri sounded surprised. "What do you mean he didn't get his diamonds?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLrlsvmS2kW
"This teddy isn't the teddy he had sent us," I answered. "Someone swapped the teddy with another."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzC2Jyrup25
Mike shook his head. "But who? We didn't know what that teddy bear had until now, so, it couldn't be anyone of us."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzYDjSsosl8
"And what about Lee?" 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA254zKrRiW
Christine asked. "She was the one who last had the teddy before Zoey 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqAPU0Vtsvc
took it. But what doesn't make any sense is why she would want to get 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI5t8rjep1o
another teddy when she had asked me last night where Mr Teddy had gone 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVDXd82tKg
to."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdC6F5JEQG
"This is bad," I said, 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFyp4EylWVk
leaning my elbows on the table and holding my head. "Whoever has the 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbA6UKeJnaC
teddy, knew what must have been going on this whole time."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7oxZXTDqXI
"Ya, but who could have known?" Seungri asked. "It couldn't be Lee because all she knows is that the teddy has gone missing."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9LnydfYDId
"Maybe Sam has it," said Mike.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOqQxcUUsuq
We all turned to look at Mike with grim looks on our faces.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJLap39evw
"Sam?" I wondered for a 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr63Y7sTGxS
little while. "Why would Sam have the teddy? And if she did, how could 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTycBOWoFZ
she have swapped it with the other one?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvY8MXZbOH
"Okay, wait," said TOP. 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Ghk78BYdR
"This is all too confusing. Does Sam even have any idea or clue as to 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcnYOBm4TuZ
what's really going on in the first place?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmyKGj5LcMm
"I doubt it," I said 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUQjqyHcrC
shaking my head. "If she knew what was going on she would have 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ92wpwwSujE
confronted me. And besides, she was also at the mall yesterday and would1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxXbrp3Km3
have probably seen Jehan and I together. But she didn't."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGIvZUDtr7D
TOP and Seungri looked 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATfpKB9Acu
at each other after I said that. What was up with them? The look they 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6b495bbOg
gave each other made me feel that something was up but I quickly brushed1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTrIfW2HuoG
it away.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGWF7lypP9H
"I highly doubt it too,"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6GQ87HgHVH
said Daniel. "If she knew Zoey was into some kind of serious trouble, 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9sOUIhQxFF
she would have asked us about it."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtAXslTRSK4
"That's true," said 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXBcgJy6Tx
Mike. "Come to think of it, I don't think Sam has it. For her to swap 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv8yqO6JRJ8
the teddy, she would have bought it from somewhere."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xGq8slIIp
"And I checked out the 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMTELYx8A7
shopping bags, Lee came with yesterday when she went shopping with Sam. 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjmryeJ5Pb
There was no sign of a small teddy in any of them," said Christine.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJb7T494zY0
"She must have bought it when she was with G-Dragon," I said.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡto6nb055wb
"No, I highly doubt it,"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlw4s4sexqO
said TOP. "There are some dedicated fans who followed those two 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcbCea9NgFh
yesterday, describing which store they went to and taking pictures. They1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh7iUKQ7ndg
said nothing about them entering a toy store."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDARVAtmu4
"Now that's what I call a dead end," said Daniel.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObFOpyyW21
"Fine, so Lee and Sam have been cancelled on the list," said Seungri. "Who else could have swapped the teddies?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0ZXba8Hd9
"Collins?" Mike asked.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9sSNdEkcJK
"Ha! No way," I said, almost laughing in a such a serious situation. "How could he have known about Jehan and the diamonds?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjjHBbrEUP
"Mmmm, good point," said Seungri. "He's been really busy these past few days."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0zdoWF5NZ2
"But who knows? Maybe he1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2DU8nOpoKk
has been spying on me this whole time and I haven't noticed. He 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ygaVf9mLJ
considers me the black sheep that has to be kept an eye on at all 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTQu4mZ0wA
times."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVSf2jhdU9
"You're definitely the black sheep, Zoey," said Mike.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZ4rrUUdm9
"Hey! May I remind you, I'm not the only one here who gets into trouble here."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKcnnsbkPd
"Okay, guys, focus," said TOP. "What makes you think Collins might have been the one who swapped the teddies?"1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKrj9JJ2cy
Daniel suddenly snapped his fingers. "I remember now. Yesterday when he came back with Sam, something happened."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWg0kfrhDqI
"Wait. Collins was with Sam?" I asked.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPiPiawGBBu
"He was the one who went1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPKVDOZzmEe
to pick her up from the mall," Daniel answered. "Back to what I was 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2U7WJv8zd
saying, Collins had something delivered to him at the hotel. He even 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNEO6TUCgXI
went to get it himself from the delivery man who was coming up the 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0KjTT1Inj
elevator."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1EkPVfIIg4
"What was it?" We all asked Daniel, looking at him anxiously.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7K6c6SDZtK
"It was a small box. And if you ask me, it was kind of like the one Jehan had sent that teddy bear in."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpmB4JmnGc
"Gosh, it's been Collins this whole time," said Christine.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4CaFAQRhk1
"I couldn't be too sure," I said. "But after what Daniel has said, I don't know what to believe."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpH0VO0y76u
"We really have to go," said Seungri. "We can't stay here."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJv1CG7fDeh
"You're right," I said 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpOfm46E16O
as I stood up from the seat taking my purse. "I've to search for that 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp4t45A5TVs
teddy if I want to make it out alive tomorrow."1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9AylhhNLc
"Wait, we can't leave all this here," said Christine, taking what was left of the teddy bear in her hands.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzusPrIPNX
We all walked out of the1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXIzRRzD0Z
café, hopping no one had heard our conversation. There were a few 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJSlj4aZiX
people in the café and I highly doubt if they really heard anything.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgv2Iv4dfc
While I was in the car 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBSuSrDmmFW
with Seungri driving and the others in the other car behind us, I was so1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEBUOBdov0I
troubled about the missing teddy. I couldn't help thinking that Collins1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDLl5e84iFA
is involved. But that didn't make any sense. As much as I wanted to 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYp7D0SAB9
believe that Collins could have swapped the teddies, I shook my head at 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgb4d1cV118
the thought of it. Maybe it really wasn't Collins.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlFToqhwVql
If it isn't him, then 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvr82HUure
who? It couldn't be Lee because she had the teddy with her the whole 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcoTWwhRtUm
time and she couldn't buy another teddy for no reason. And I couldn't 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFsPN17nWQC
picture Sam doing anything like that either because I had never seen her1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYz7vZb6ON
near that teddy after Jehan sent it to us that day.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6gKaTcgqg
What if I had the wrong 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5SzYoX74j8
teddy the whole time and I had never known till now? All this was too 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz6vDlROLnB
confusing. Who swapped the teddies? And when did the swapping ever take 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgKtQF0J8f5
place without any of us noticing in the first place?1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhNE4HJdRg
I hope I could be able 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3LIif0HgOe
to find the teddy soon. Jehan might threaten to kill me, but I was 1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLdctlER9Ex
pretty sure he would try to hurt the others too. And I wouldn't let that1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJgost1CH8w
happen.
