I poured myself a cup of orange juice as I looked at Christine who sat across from me at the table, having a bite of her toast. I looked at her and realised that she seemed more vibrant today. Was it because of the extra sleep we had yesterday?757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4WZk4Pcwxz
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLV03spdS2q
I heard footsteps coming into the lounge and I turned to see Zoey approaching the table.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhWcERTwyPS
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzw86a3eMyw
"Morning, girls," she said as she drew out a chair next to mine and sat down with a bright smile on her face.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHyif4wmNV
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQKU4UMMif
"Morning," Christine and I answered at the same time.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjpCOZB5t7y
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxuU8oLTGWL
"You ladies look very bright this morning," she said as she took a plate and placed it in front of her.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2GarRwof0
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnubFRDTWQG
"So do you," said Christine as she took another bite out of her french toast.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFyoqaVvO1W
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2RngXuOAwb
"I guess the sleep we had really worked wonders," I said.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvUx99P9mU
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGAcqmu83NR
"Really?" Zoey asked as she looked at me and held her cheeks with her fingers as though she was massaging them. "Do I look like extra extra pretty?"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUhumOmZPu
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPZXoiCXHI
I smiled at her. "You've always looked pretty, Zoey."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qbR2XNi0L
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobH3in2QNw
"Morning, people," said Mike as both him and Daniel appeared and came straight for the table.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYaokUV06gI
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOu5FdDdyhq
"Morning," we answered him. I gave Daniel, a bright smile. He smiled back.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyKwUno19xq
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXm8HgdDAah
"What's with Zoey feeling like she's all pretty?" Mike asked as he took a seat right next to Christine and Daniel sat right next to Zoey.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrNiKHOjT7e
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEx6OkbTXT9
"Can't you see that I'm glowing?" Zoey asked as she beamed at Mike. "Sam says the extra sleep we had must have helped."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlWATRmaoAO
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡruDXDd9d8l
"Enough sleep is good for the body," said Daniel as he took the jug of orange juice.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxxUZh38fa
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNjMSbxfMQ6
"Are we going to meet with the others today and finish up on the song?" Mike asked as he looked at me.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjMKu3E55xY
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8e6LWMS98j
"I haven't communicated with either of the two groups yet," I said.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrrNMSwZWyw
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDjxDnXXRl
"Mmm..., funny," said Zoey as she lifted her toast and looked at it like she was observing it. "I haven't been on my phone since last night."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCdgdvYnHbO
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5JMzASyrR1
"Really, that's all you can think about?" Christine asked.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUaGfN9bkA
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAGKoB4YAe
"Well..., I guess we were all tired and needed a break. Besides, last night was quite fun."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPEkek9n3O
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGBQFjyI7Jf
"Tell me about it," said Daniel as he held a slice of toast and took a bite.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhHIUfhsui
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPn2OcZxr0f
After we went to catch up on sleep yesterday afternoon, we woke up around 7PM and we all met in the lounge where we ended up playing board games with Lee. Before supper, Collins arrived and joined in on the fun and we told him about our progress on the new song. After supper, we all sat down to watch the Korean drama series, "Boys Over Flowers." We went to bed an hour early before our usual bedtime.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡah7bnxDT9h
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8lq0V327k
"We should have more sleeping hours, don't you think?" Mike asked.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpSQr2CjSt8
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKD9lYlhLIh
"With what we are working on right now, I doubt it," I said. "Maybe after we finally head back home."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDHRN1gXWR
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8RD102lLT0
"This album is going to kill us," said Zoey as she leaned her head back and looked up at the ceiling in frustration.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7ux1lVf9X
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡabcnXkLees
"You have to check up on these guys and ask if we're going to meet," said Christine as she looked at me.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpbbbZJeNck
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3dv1z3g78A
"After breakfast," I said. I took a sip of my juice.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJpWq3cJYM
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5JZXZ3JPH9
As we continued to have our breakfast and talked about the snakes and ladders game we had yesterday, Lee and Collins came into the lounge. Lee was taking down something on her tablet while Collins talked to her, almost like he was giving her instructions. I couldn't hear what he was saying because he talked in a low tone and Zoey at the same time was the one talking at the table.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgppBaH3qxo
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHK3R7tbXoA
"All I am saying is," she said, "if Daniel wasn't so lucky, I would have won that game."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfqGUXU15a
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTBs8C6oes
"Too bad you got eaten by the snake towards the end," said Daniel as he smiled at Zoey.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXATOTyTtfe
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPHdiTKTMV
"Sometimes I think you cheat."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgL2uwNFdn
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8JspU3uaex
"Cheating in snakes and ladders is almost impossible," said Christine as I saw her shrug her shoulders. "That's if you have the super power to row the dice to the number that's most suitable."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2z5drChmgN
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPB3HD2uGk
"Morning," said Collins as he and Lee came towards us. "I see Zoey still hasn't gotten over that snakes and ladders game."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8juXWCZKMm
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwKRehqFJ8N
Zoey looked down at her empty plate, not daring to look up at Collins. "Not really," she said.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2vo6Wj4YJ
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoBkNLiSWsZ
"Will all of BTW be meeting today to continue working on the song?" Collins asked as he looked at me.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsNu4qKGrHl
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5Iil8kZts
"I have to communicate with them and see if it's possible," I answered.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCyNIZZuPFZ
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6q7d8IOFp
"Well, I sure hope so. I told Yang Hyun-suk that you already started. He wants to hear it tomorrow, so I really hope you do make progress."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡioQYuVrg3c
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNEeQJToNXH
"I better go give them a call, then."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqthjgWBXK8
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVfXVjHeWE
I drew my chair back and left the table. I later found myself back in the room I shared with Zoey. I went straight for my phone that was beside the bed lamp. It felt like it had stayed there for a very long time because I barely touched it last night.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4Oqp0Wqv0
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJW1q4WXGf
I checked my lock screen and found no messages whatsoever. Maybe its because I hadn't turned the wifi on on my phone. After I unlocked it and switched on the wifi, notifications came flooding in almost at the same time most of them from social networks like Instagram and Twitter. I ignored them all as I went on my WhatsApp to check if there were any messages on the BTW chat group. But nothing.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkF2r1Bx6rX
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKdfWCgx6q
"Strange," I muttered to myself as I sat on my bed. I decided to leave a message, but that wasn't going to be enough.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXk9NToKl5U
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Igv7bkhQn
I decided to make a call to one of the BlackPink members. Jennie was the first member on my contact list so I called her.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLL0g55xOME
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjeTICeVosI
I put my phone to my ear. Her phone rang but she wasn't picking up. I waited until the voicemail came up and I cut the call right away. Maybe she was still asleep or she wasn't so close to the phone. I called again and still her phone went straight to voicemail.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNl5MKP3lNl
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡar89XfzCIG
I called Jisoo next, and just like Jennie's phone, it went straight to voicemail. Something didn't feel right. Why were they both not answering their phones?757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGSP6swcow
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBrQk48gGvJ
I went on ahead to call Seunghoon and this time, I prayed that his phone wasn't going to act like the others. Upon the third ring, he answered.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjRFpaFRZl0
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRXVXWSgjSX
"Hello?" Seunghoon answered. He sounded sleepy.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFh7LVvArC
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzOSsxTaDVy
"Seunghoon? Hey, are you still asleep?" I asked.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPsmPLlebSg
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNpzD3gT5l
"Sam?" he sounded surprised and more awake. "Oh, I didn't notice it was you."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbiCFwOim9
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3yImobayvc
"Are you guys coming to meet us here at the hotel? We have a song to work on, remember?"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrM5kK1f4f
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD7Wg0WlSD2
"Oh, oh, ya, we do..., ummm, eish.....," I heard him mutter something in Korean. "You said we can meet either today or tomorrow, right?"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs6OXNMuIfi
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgkBjDbIM1L
"Umm...," I raised an eyebrow. Something was definitely not right at the moment. "Yes, I did. That's why I called to see if you guys are up it."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezi7JCFjl8
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJeAi2R85Kk
"Oh, umm, let me ask if these guys are up for it." I heard movement, like someone was pushing away the sheets to try and get out of bed. "I'll call you right back."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67JZYLIOKM
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52mqbOdvoz
"Ya, sure."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPmGgiTel9
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyspJvQHMpg
Seunghoon cut the call and I couldn't help but wonder. Maybe the others weren't up for meeting today. It was for the best to have it cancelled.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdoR03JcTP0
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsM9UbmmdrQ
The door to the room flew open and Zoey came in.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH95FWjAoAg
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpnkiZPQAM
"Anything?" Zoey asked.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUwmFbwVSwV
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡliVtadw5CY
"Couldn't reach Jennie or Jisoo," I answered. "But I did reach Seunghoon and he will get back to me as soon as he talks to the others."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxRyHYaKBV
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgHKw9E9nEb
"Okay, well, we can wait."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxG4x5lg2Bm
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgyIKpSB0RK
"Maybe we should cancel and meet tomorrow. Seunghoon was still asleep when I called."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwhPOti3AcR
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv1WGaBv7ns
"We could, but Yang Hyun-suk wants to hear the song tomorrow."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYeqMy0W2Tz
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5nhjpo17kN
"We can tell Collins to tell him that he will have to wait a little longer."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8BU5al7me
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTT3PtszTX
"Geez, this is Yang Hyun-suk we're talking about. He wouldn't like taking orders from a missy like you."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Kbfpw86QX
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡioWBycJws0
I shrugged my shoulders. "It's just a suggestion, not an order."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvVeup0wZ2
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG6840b9bcK
"Ooh, you know what I mean," she said irritatingly.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3dn1YO9DA
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvzJbjUDFb
"We can't work on the song without them."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8KKWlV6yQH
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMNvBmvVW7w
"True, but you started to work on the song way before we all met yesterday. You're a good songwriter after all."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡevxiO2GJ6i
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6c0seno4qp
"I hope we won't have to write the songs of the entire album ourselves. We will need to bring out some songwriters. We don't really have much time."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdlVoDN4l5
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3EACKnG0hq
"Huh, funny. Collins was talking about it with Lee just now. You two seem to think alike."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdLQ1vZmLUf
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgcVqGYVmE
"Yay, we will be working on one song," I said with less enthusiasm.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6TPHOJp47
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI153sgseTe
"Then get your guitar and notebook."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡub1LtrRBIl
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGv6aEh3vF
"May you help me with my guitar?" I asked. "It's in the closet."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMzzW4r2KK
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUOjWvJ484
"Really? Why do I get to carry the heavy stuff for you?"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11r4PzvdWe
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPYYE15srBL
"I never let you carry any of my heavy stuff. And besides, the guitar isn't so heavy."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9PlKcRXfFl
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTHqmZ9boFY
"Whatever," Zoey rolled her eyes at me as she went to the closet to get it. I stretched out over my bed to get my notebook in one of the drawers on the other side of the bed.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1T5P9Nm9Lx
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBxom3tr1Ns
Zoey and I soon left the room, Zoey with my guitar and me, with my phone and notebook. I expected Seunghoon to have called back by now but he hadn't. Strange.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPRdgCd885T
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl3iQeV3gIB
"Aah, it's good to see that you are much more serious than I thought about the song," said Collins as we entered the lounge.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDXpnhWr8R
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJcPcWT4sB
"Of course we are," said Zoey as she smiled at Collins seated in the lounge. My brothers and Christine weren't by the dining table.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡImpgDxEW4f
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqBOgIXNqK
"And what about the others?" Lee asked. She was standing right in front of us with the tablet still in her hands. "Are they going to make it?"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdKgz37mQj
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9lOEWcUPa2
"Am yet to receive a reply," I answered.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqNdwjR3rsC
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCwC18sn7z
"I hope all goes to plan," said Collins as he stood up. "Yang Hyun-suk is really looking forward to hearing the song."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG0ctsJUFHm
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjbEnVDNzN8
I gulped. Something told me it was best if the managers heard the song another day.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAyAsm9BPvx
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5iyMfGuU0
"I actually think we need a little more time," I said to Collins.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJK4QnWGiq
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXLlRUzGOGp
"Really?" he raised his eyebrow at me.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBtYCVk5LCs
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqiL6vuLu6w
I felt Zoey look at me. She knew what I was doing. I had no other choice but to stall.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj73nDsLWCU
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV3WDRqLZLu
"Yes, really," I answered.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxzI6OZLQF
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3KFucGYHaT
"Whatever reason you have, fine. But you will have to finish the song because tomorrow we will meet other songwriters and composers for the album. But we will still need that song from you."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZQYYsuKzJ
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76h3Y0tWxG
I nodded my head. "It will be a great song, trust me."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjE4zRFPNsr
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2dqCa7Z1a
Collins smiled at Zoey and I, then left the lounge heading for the elevator. It looked like he was going out as always.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjboOgOysy
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxAf11ULBJN
"Well, that went well," said Zoey after we were sure that Collins had gone.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeAavIQUesH
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMy7hxUXz55
"What went well?" Lee asked.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF02j899ZPR
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhnOfT17fsv
"Nothing, nothing," said Zoey as she went ahead to put the guitar on the nearest couch and smiled at Lee.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNWDjCtJcJ
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMpArsOfYm
I knew Lee was going to stare at me to get an answer, so, I avoided her gaze by looking at my phone. Still nothing from Seunghoon. I debated on whether to give him another call.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0yg7gG8jiU
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6jqF9SxJQ
I heard one of the doors open and shut in the hall followed by Christine's voice singing to a song by Maroon 5: "She will be loved" until she entered the lounge.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡciuNYbMfRC
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRp2vEMvAyl
"Any news from the others yet?" she asked as she stood beside me.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqc67EzzmU
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2blijvdmq6
I shook my head. "I can't reach BlackPink and Seunghoon said he would inform me soon if he and the rest are going to make it."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc84Cz7LhzV
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJHoRirWGU
"Bummer," she said as she went over to sit on the couch. Zoey soon joined her.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqNCj2oUbV1
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKWfTTUbQ22
"Now I see why you don't want the managers hearing the song tomorrow," said Lee. "You're not sure if these guys are going to show."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzz6WACB16z
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLtcxJyiqLZ
"I thought we agreed that we were all going to rest and then meet up," said Christine.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjuQxb5Muk
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgsry4dXw19
"The sad part was I suggested we meet either today or tomorrow," I said.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcPzo31VdkZ
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmRTEUhrE7I
"I think I was the one who suggested that," said Lee as she winced.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8kLyif3Gn
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUV0iQg7Nj
"Judging by Sam's phone that should have rang minutes ago, we're likely to meet tomorrow," said Zoey.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkerer5kYfw
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1u0ueSnitj
She was right. I looked at my phone and I felt like I should have just left it behind in my room. Seunghoon might call to tell me that they weren't going to make it. Jisoo or Jennie would find my missed calls and call me back to say the same thing.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN18gbzXWpd
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNq4u0QeVDz
"Ya, you're right," I said as I slumped my shoulders and lowered my phone. I sighed.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZOWjURKSs
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBEzqsAaYjH
"If these guys are taking a day off, don't you think we should as well?" Zoey asked.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxCFi4ZYOVh
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0MJXha82EA
"No!" Christine, Lee and I said at the same time.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtrG6CeKKO
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFc2Nyzj2s
Zoey's face was one filled with disappointment. "I really wanted to go shopping."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMpPso5VLU
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vZGhvLMjw
"If they won't come, we will work on the song ourselves," I said. "I'll just text them-"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvmaXboqE51
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeWz8ozBIsa
The phone beeps in my hand. I looked at it and I found a message from Seunghoon. I read the message saying that they won't be able to make it. I texted back and told him we would meet tomorrow.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctz457NS9I
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCE8GBAE3p
After pressing the send button, Lee asked, "was that Seunghoon?"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaKrpnHRzwG
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdNIYSJfH4x
"Yep, and he said they aren't going to make it."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTuhUOQeJDy
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuWdFjmNpcG
"Well, you saw this coming," said Zoey.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ZOK3LzY17
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9r6b4XWTxc
"And you did well to stall the managers," said Lee. "That will give you some breathing space."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOZ7GvEEop
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJcCywZEPs
"We better start working on the song," I said as I went over to the couch where my guitar lay and lifted it to create space to sit. "Where are Mike and Daniel?"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYc9ZwDMVs
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ252huBVOhd
"I can go call them, they are in their room," said Lee.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmz51k9rUqm
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1US3HHdqAl
She didn't even have to leave the lounge as Mike and Daniel soon appeared.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wuUuakJRo
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSg4fi6Fh5D
"We're working on the song already?" Daniel asked. "Aren't we waiting for the others?"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8ym7ALHbJ
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAyeQb3Uqdt
"They won't make it today," said Zoey as I sat down.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLEW0kZXO7k
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFc5yLkJ6he
"Mmm..., how come?" Mike asked, sounding puzzled.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrBPydANSu5
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM45HkzoilU
"They wouldn't say, just that they can't make it, at least that's what Seunghoon told me on behalf of WINNER," I said. "I'm yet to hear from BlackPink."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHVCqqqqnc
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2AnsEZfcAn
"Bummer," said Daniel as he came to sit right beside me.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobi8xM4yQf
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJpM2xcvQY
"Not to worry, we can still make progress without them. Shall we begin?"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCHz9iqjMp
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQg2tYGk9dg
Mike sat opposite Daniel and I. We first did a recap of the song and continued working on the first verse since that was where we left off. Without the others it was kind of difficult since Mino and Seungyoon came up with great lyrics for the first verse. We had to go with the flow though and it didn't seem so bad.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpz95P50oVl

We were still on the first verse, checking out sentences and debating whether one word sounded better than the other when my phone rang. It laid on the armrest of the couch. I checked who was calling and rolled my eyes.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wqieGTCBZ
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Baxyn0PAk
"Who's calling, Sam?" Daniel asked.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPYqfLSBMJy
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJpndxzwst
"I'll tell you," said Zoey, "it's G-Dragon. If it's not, then it's probably someone who's just as annoying as he is."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6E43nFgno
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuyaYAfv2vQ
"It's him, alright," I said as I took the phone and picked up the call. "Hey, GD."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwp1Q7MoGi
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKTE8Lmtcg
"Hi, I'm in the elevator right now coming to your floor. I'll be there in like 30 seconds."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1O9pUXU31L
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgXSjhtRsv
"Wait, you're....," the line went dead. I stared at the phone.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxR8EJcXpU
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ej5NGinm4
"What is it?" Christine asked.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQMA5fVqnSq
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE9rz5Ga43u
We heard the sound of the elevator doors on our floor announcing the arrival of our visitor.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9HCzLSHB6Z
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHdTr3L59W
"He's here," I said.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRoqJunaYx3
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGhqM4Vwv3
Lee who sat at the dining table, working, asked, "how come we were never informed at the reception of his arrival?"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBKv0InloD
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIghnWncGlW
"It's because I told them not to," came G-Dragon as he appeared in the lounge.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcgCJi7o5cP
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡABaKBYLR1p
We turned to look at him. Somehow, I wasn't surprised that he was here.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡclUZDWQx82
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rEWvawpyc
"Hello, everyone," he greeted as he came to where the five of us, sat.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyYWvLLzIBD
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCmkStNXC9s
Four of us, including Lee, replied to his greeting except Zoey who said, "how come you're here?"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDCbJmAioem
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjscB2roy1J
"What's wrong with me being here?" he asked as he shrugged his shoulders.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZIb0bDFu4G
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfkHwor0Ol
"For someone who went partying last night, you seem pretty sober."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv2dAMfecwE
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvVjRj6lOW
"Oh.., how did the party go anyway?" Christine asked.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjO9dhkKFpS
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIh71uia5AA
"It was great," he said with a happy grin.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVpl06zYm0A
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMXCRv1CZzA
"Zoey has a point, though," said Mike. "For someone who had a great time at the party, you seem pretty sober and...," he snapped his fingers as he tried to think of a word.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6nfFC3qTW
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6yd00Iy7n
"Normal?" Daniel suggested. Though he was only joking.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGpdkgiowN
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWii68OX84s
"Wait, you think I'm not normal?" G-Dragon asked. He almost looked offended.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf7eW5hcdnL
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsU20gj5QEE
"Nah, that's not the word, Daniel," said Mike. "It doesn't matter anyway."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITQ0tJA1K2
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuWQYEOripZ
I looked over at Mike and he had a small smirk on his face that was almost unnoticeable to everyone else. I found Daniel also staring at his brother and then he looked at me. The two of us knew he meant what Daniel said.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6b3Ck3hnNx
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHRsJCRBH1U
"We had a blast yesterday," said G-Dragon as he went over to join Mike on the couch. "I thought you checked the photos on Instagram."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8arb6Y3xCh
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4UaLe0eBRM
"Did you just say 'we?'" I asked as I raised my eyebrow at him.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEr3EHXz3CT
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQPoFnWrWUt
"What?" he asked as if he hadn't heard my question. I felt like he did.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXErAGvKJoc
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZBIVpxbJQ
"You said 'we.' Who else were you with?"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmdOBpfRhq
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4085OxePJt
"Oh.., just friends, very close..., very good friends," he answered as he nodded his head.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGgeg1wURwH
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8eD0XAK5N
"Okay," I said as I slowly nodded back. "I'm glad you had fun."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOV2DRJ6DJ5
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEhspJzGlIr
"You guys should have come. It was amazing."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaK8aAPDquV
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqaOxJo2hX
"Too late for that now, isn't it?" Christine asked.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡifaOOvslsY
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCHvzqAIae
"Yep, too late. But you could still see the pics of how much fun we had."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGp8MvbsET
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqYSWeUogGT
"I bet there was plenty of booze too," said Zoey.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYh7npEp1x
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUtPPvzrt6c
"Plenty," said G-Dragon with a smile.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvsheo3zHLn
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkWbHmVlxr
I couldn't help but feel something strange with what G-Dragon said a few sentences ago. Maybe I was just imagining things. Any who....757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXMvlsTjfU
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLS65bjwmsk
"We can check the pics later," I said. "We have a song to write."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjHL9ofS1G
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9giT8SNMYx
"The others aren't here yet?" G-Dragon asked. "How can you work on the song without them?"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76hacud65C
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ63lNNELrcC
"Seunghoon called to tell me they weren't going to make it. I haven't heard anything from BlackPink but I doubt they will come, so I called off the meeting and we are working on it instead."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCa1lVeqhIQ
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMufFHl4fNO
"Oh. I think that's fair considering that they must be tired from the party."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPzRyThwNO
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjiNCONGwgx
I looked at G-Dragon, and so did the rest of the Toxins.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJwK9ia3be
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2odubSZO5
"They were with you at the party?" Daniel asked.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGnP0aLZNt
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOomHHZeRn
"Huh....?" G-Dragon now looked like the confused one. "I thought you knew."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8PSYnuBBBZ
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe2EIvjSATc
"How would we know when we were resting yesterday and we were completely off social media?" Christine asked.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNUvaEF0O0g
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeM7s5gfJh2
G-Dragon shrugged his shoulders. He left our floor early yesterday, so he had no idea that we all agreed to rest and continue working on the song later. Can't blame him for that.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhLY3dCzHyC
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCcsCdUTK5l
"You dragged them to the party, didn't you?" Zoey asked as she pointed a finger at him. "You're such a manipulator!"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxcCnMSzo7I
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhvmGgoMOx
"I didn't convince them, I swear," he said as he raised his hands in surrender. But then he looked at me and lowered them. "Okay..., maybe a little."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9u5E8Jmub
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDkJoxAH0oF
"I knew it!" Zoey said with a look on her face.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW3cUEWOexE
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeeFKTEvwhr
"But ninety percent of the whole convincing thing was on the other guy."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl5uX6o77aS
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnpmMrhAVp4
"The other guy?" Mike asked as he raised his eyebrows.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrxwBpuiddO
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjXfkkoZ9s4
"Who's the other guy?" Christine asked.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjVbq2nIuu
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTN47lL2OPd
I knew there was something fishy about G-Dragon's earlier statements. He didn't just go and party with "just" close friends.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡim6CRmsK57
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01EHTgbRpc
"Tell us," Zoey demanded when G-Dragon didn't speak.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHP8uxutAlL
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdbdXxBivs
We looked at him as he also stared back at each one of us. The look in his eyes made me realise that he didn't want to talk for fear of what might happen next.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS3qtACCGm7
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJFZ7AEiBI
"Looks like you lost your tongue, GD," said Daniel. "Please tell us who you were with. I don't think it's that much of a big deal."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMv9C6PSK5r
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkq4Xd1xC7G
G-Dragon squeezed his eyes shut in fright. And just like that, we knew it was a big deal.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOtJrRhmzUb
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8uxRASCwRx
"Goodness, just tell us, GD," I said. "We have a song to work on and you're just wasting our time."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1NdJzoLl6
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTyGJiIXU30
"It was a mistake coming here," said G-Dragon as he nervously stood up from the couch. "I better get going. Sorry for disturbing you."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVMgHhKDYWK
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtWkqVA0b6
All five of us stood up and surrounded him. It was five against one and he knew he couldn't stand a chance. We came closer, making it tight for him to leave.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg1dwI7Vyqw
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI5TFFOvWhE
"GD, sit down, please," I instructed him and he did.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1CsjH8lUN
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxbWRqdcH1H
"Now," said Zoey as she cracked her knuckles. "You're going to answer our questions. You don't want to receive these babies," she gestured to her fists, "on your face."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKIjuXGGxA9
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRqbSyTHlgP
"Okay, okay," G-Dragon surrendered. "I'll tell you."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqsbUnl02G
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRy59e811J
"First question," said Christine with her arms folded. "Who were you with downstairs when you left our floor yesterday?"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEiFcqdL2oB
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRcdBupszOK
G-Dragon gulped as he looked at us. "You won't like the answer I am about to give you. You will kill me before I even leave this place."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdq3fRm2zfN
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOGltPFusg
"We will make sure to bury you in a lovely place, promise," said Mike. "Now, spill."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDAZjltOk6a
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwn373EoN5
G-Dragon sat upright and cleared his throat. "When I came out of the elevator, I saw..., I saw this guy. He recognised me immediately and said he was a big fan..., and so....., we talked for a while. We got along well...., and then that's when the others came..."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7ZrtF6qkQ
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8aOy9Y9fL
"GD, we don't want to hear how you all met," I said, "we want a name. Who is the guy?"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVNE2h59XaK
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55Gj3uwHXY
"It's..., it's..., Johnny," said G-Dragon. He immediately looked down at the floor.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCmzVFDbePB
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXi5YkisHpA
"Johnny Jerkins!" the five of us said at the same time.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3R23ffaNQ
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9w75cCSxGY
"Yes," G-Dragon as he slowly nodded his head, still facing downwards.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm5uFqg8zUq
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP4sLwlAOP8
Zoey fell onto the couch next to G-Dragon like she was about to pass out, her hand on her forehead.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdjEDoOUMy
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2q0aDXpnTL
"I can't believe it" she said.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwrqPB4FM6
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7js7GRaaZR
"That explains everything," I said, as I looked at a certain part of the wall above the couch, my mind far off.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcHBXybK2w
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhCtuFXjoN7
"No wonder they couldn't make it," said Daniel.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKXztF4UCB
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzj1Dzw5v7e
"They didn't just go to the party, they were hanging out with Johnny," said Mike.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKlmpQUR61k
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPEzTwGVtoQ
"Ya...., you won't like what I am about to show you," said Lee behind us.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUHIoRWL81
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHvM9YFDn5
We all turned to look at Lee as she approached with a tablet in her hands. She went to sit on the couch I had been sitting on with Daniel. I went to sit next to her, Christine on her other side. Mike and Daniel went over to stand at the back of the couch so as to see more clearly on the tablet.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyAUQdYTs1u
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSwEp5K2gLc
She was on Instagram and she had gone on one of G-Dragon's fan pages. One of the first photos we saw of last night was a picture of him and Johnny staring at the camera and smiling. They had hands over each other's shoulders like they were best buddies.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJsUpCbpMrR
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOeT1YyEUUd
It was definitely Johnny Jerkins alright. His white blonde hair cropped to the sides and a strand of it falling above his right blue eye. He was almost G-Dragon's height and he had on a white shirt and brown khaki shorts. I noticed their surrounding and I couldn't help but ask:757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTpAlh9S4rC
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfnyLmNoQF
"You guys had a party on a boat?" I looked at G-Dragon.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBH9lOsRQBm
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG8C321X99v
"What! A cruise party!" Zoey yelled as she sat up quickly. She looked like she had woken from her slumber as she went to stand alongside my two brothers.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqopmbfUHG
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWyIfCGqlC
Lee continued to scroll down the page and more pictures came up. This time, there were some of BlackPink and WINNER having a good time with Johnny and G-Dragon. There were other pictures with fans who wanted to take pics with the K-Pop superstars.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMKBuK9XNN
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOds3U6hBfl
"You guys had such a good time," said Zoey. "I wish I came."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBLOW59SZrf
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhyGsGjrjjS
"You see, you guys should have tagged along," said G-Dragon.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmgwdjQN1Ct
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOrR6L4oLJ
"And hang out with Johnny? Heck no!" Zoey detested.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuEha1tcyZi
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJDNxGA6Vc
"He seems pretty cool."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhzVgQpWDO
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5ENSpOUUv
"That's because you only just met him," said Daniel.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdF5pOArDbD
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3LSX1TVA1z
"You won't be hanging out with him more often, will you?" Christine asked.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrbSJPKxrL
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVcFiOPexUV
"Nah," G-Dragon denied. "I guess all that was just a one time thing."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgbm3a0dvlO
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpB4Itu9xyK
"That's what they all say," said Zoey. I imagined her rolling her eyes when she said that.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Wup4GrOPT
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzKUXpzcxpu
"And let's not forget, he's in this hotel," I said. "Avoiding him will be tricky."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSYwfd61kX
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTlnuvU0SU
"Don't you think maybe you guys are taking this thing a little too far?" G-Dragon asked.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡayUERxM2B4
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnWJRA6hKLj
"What thing?" Christine asked. Her eyes were still fixed on the tablet as Lee continued to scroll.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijzzXc3Ful
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2BIz9ekIsL
"This 'Johnny' thing?"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFHU1aFsw9m
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGTryD1HdXs
I looked up from the tablet at G-Dragon and I knew I wasn't the only one.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDG0yJwtOIU
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhw93qqIE9w
"Why would we?" I asked.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSW42SEOSST
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb6RqDA71Nb
"You talk about him as if he's your worst enemy."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpZUGvIMht
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2wuh0yavF7
"Look, we don't hate people, well, maybe some," said Mike. "It's just that some people aren't worth hanging out with."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfwGGm5Zryo
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkntLZqzz9
"Because of his actions back at school? Please, that was a long time ago."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ulinR0Q83
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDxpRshLoET
"You're right," said Zoey. "It was a long time ago, but we would rather keep our distance. Some people are just toxic, you know?"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1qi9dhej1F
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMkfg5oueB
"How ironic," said G-Dragon as he stood up from the couch.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYmJYk4xp3
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcSH62fkC31
"Leaving already?" Lee asked.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPy98fnfMxp
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhp7DUo6qI
"Ya, I really should. Just came to check up on the progress with the song."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDEBGDBzdLQ
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVuHltUpbl
G-Dragon didn't seem like himself. I looked at him and this time I didn't give him a criticising look like I always do. I could tell he was upset if not sad.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8OBMGkc645
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOU3BuzBY7o
"I'll escort you to the elevator," I said as I stood up from the couch.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCqwC5XOamJ
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQj1YePaZK1
"Ok," he said and he turned to address the others, "I'll see you guys later."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnvbCi0FYWh
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlUHX1hyEjF
"Bye, GD," the rest replied at the same time. Their tone sounded low almost as if they didn't want to upset him any further.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxN5PzKNlTC
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBHBqo1jYLK
G-Dragon made his way out of the lounge and I was right behind him.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhuUM0twD2U
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrk4stWNmKK
"Well, you seem upset," I said to him when we were in the hall.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6TH6M2k2El
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtaQ6t7Cz2Y
"No, I'm not," he said as he shrugged his shoulders.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh54ySuMgA5
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxBCkdrngV3
I held his shoulder and he stopped walking, his back still facing me.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8dEXyXKbK
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgL3daqfZwH
"I know when you're upset," I said as I dropped my hand. "I think the others know too."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQTQnWOBwK
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSAU79K4DqW
He turned around to look at me. "I don't get you guys at all," he said.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ27mibokncU
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkm4QEaMEz
"What do you mean?" I folded my arms.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16WuNgU5mb
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsP5pBvWjVi
"I mean, you guys are the nicest and coolest people I have ever met and I never thought you would be so spiteful about someone. You weren't all like this when you were dealing with Jehan...., well, maybe Zoey, but even she wasn't so extreme."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFebfzEkAT
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKEmGi8JWW
"We aren't perfect, you know? We have our emotions too, whether good or bad."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1YyTs8i0Go
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwfFKNDTlr5
"But why hate on Johnny so much?"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ahGAnHyDG
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxFn2wXpqBK
I shook my head. "We don't hate him. We do hate what he did to us in the past, but we don't actually hate him."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBoSxU81Bwf
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPJyNJTJ87
"Really?"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGYzsms6oy
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzrKPuSt28z
"If we really did, we would have called him worse names than 'jerk' now, wouldn't we?"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC67YXuu5kJ
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0zrCAQyMne
G-Dragon bit his lip and he didn't have to admit I was right. "Then why can't you come to peace with him?" he asked. "You don't even want to cross paths with him, like ever."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Xo9B1d3kc
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVw1cIzKJJP
I sighed as I dropped my arms. "Some people aren't worth mingling around with, Jiyong."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3hKUyDMFRH
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXB9sxeXfY
"Is there something you aren't telling me?" He raised his eyebrow at me and took a step closer.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzOG5cv1dTZ
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs7RsavAJWy
I shrugged my shoulders. "Kind of," I answered. "You're yet to know everything in due time."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz4hVdG5Peh
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJqkzn3uY2
G-Dragon slowly nodded his head. I could tell that he understood and is willing to wait. But for how long is the million dollar question.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLaJmc8jrL4
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNCfFPSL5o
"Okay, I'll see you around, then," said G-Dragon as he managed to smile.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Y3NElXGio
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Ti3E9g3YK

The five of us all looked at each other. It was surprising we wanted something sweet to boost our spirits. We needed some fresh air too. We all turned to look at Lee who sighed. She needed a doughnut too.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrpr43E23JU
