The water felt like a 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFLkJhKieQh
safe haven and I didn't want to get out. For some reason, it felt so 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmWbxskeC0w
warm and nice. I didn't want to go above the surface and face all the 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCEylIJTcjA
troubles out there. But I couldn't stay in water forever. That's 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhgjRtBwPrj
obvious. I didn't want to die in here and sooner or later, I had to 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs9UEs5qroA
breathe. 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHv7JqyWbV
I pushed myself upwards 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjiuhTf8ZvR
and my head stuck out of the water's surface. I took in a deep breath of1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk4OGJ5IiHK
fresh air and I shook my head to shake the water out of my eyes. I 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡISGxbnFJpE
opened my eyes fully and as I looked around the pool, I swam to the 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ95v10dPYxS
edge.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlrwR3ag9B
When I finally got myself out, I saw Hyo-rin, Seungri and TOP run towards me. Taeyang and Daesung also appeared.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡowaarQAV5X
"Sam, are you okay?" Hyo-rin asked, when she got closer.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6JOKji31yD
"I've never been better," I answered as I looked at myself.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPScr57hSa
I looked ridiculously 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡftamxe6fcs
wet, that's for sure. My clothes felt so heavy. I pulled out my phone 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgUEDlAXLA
from the pocket and it was all wet and ruined. I sucked my teeth in 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9QZQybZI7X
irritation. So much for having a cool fancy iPhone only to find it 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYecB4Wc6z
taking a dive with you into the water. I put my phone back in my wet 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfONdFp8Y57
pocket. My day couldn't get any better than this.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjbDsFtjBe
I looked around me and 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQHJB8c12Cg
luckily, the little drama I had had with G-Dragon at the top of the 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBia9BKmd8W
rocks, hadn't caught so many people's attention, but only to a few of 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJ1b4OPxku
those who were in the same pool I had fallen in. That was a relief. The 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7LK8t6HKaH
last thing I wanted was to look embarrassed in front of the whole world.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsz8PAzWms2
"You need a towel," said TOP. "You're soaking wet, and you need a change of clothes too."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUiByE08luv
"No need," I said as I started to remove my wet sneakers and water poured out of them. "We've to go."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWK0t94A9n
I heard Zoey and the 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUMxOcgTDS
others' laughter and cheering on the other side of the pool. I looked on1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh94tdo8Sgk
and I saw the others approach G-Dragon after he climbed down the rocks.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxpd3Okl2KG
They surrounded and cheered for him as though he was a hero. 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7JQ41Bs6DZ
"Sam?" I heard Taeyang's1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡutoZmYOXBN
voice as he held my shoulder. "You don't look okay at all. And you 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBqFGjVX99
really need a change of clothes or else you're going to catch a cold."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzfzS6LHGHz
"I already told you, I'm1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmyKPz0KfKS
fine," I said as I slowly brushed off Taeyang's hand from my shoulder. I1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1L8aqDT0F
didn't want to be rude, but I was so not in the mood for consolation 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1H7yYa4Rlw
from anyone.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxuhLpasvFp
I made my way towards GD1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9V3y5x26H2
and the others, while they were chattering on with excitement over what1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9O1RAGVuIb
had happened. Hyo-rin and the rest followed behind me. As the Toxins 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡziu83VAMM7
and G-Dragon saw me approach them, Zoey came forward.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwa8lfU3lWm
"Oh, man, Sam," said 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFzLqh1mIeg
Zoey, with a ridiculous smile on her face. "You should really see 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdmWyBC2hO7
yourself. Sorry for all that, but we had to add a little spice to the 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgB80J5oZAw
game. Hope you didn't mind."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzU1jI30o4l
"Can we just go back to YG?" I asked, with no hint of emotion on my face. "I've had a long day."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAChPNzBaAo
"Go back to YG?" Zoey asked with a surprised look on her face. "I thought we were going back to the hotel."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuaCRSbSkXA
"I told you, our 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGNAZ4aXsM
managers need us back there. And as usual, you never listen to me." I 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHz7Cho1QZp
rolled my eyes as I soon remembered something. "Speaking of our 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2YowkfBoc9
managers, Daesung, may I use your phone, please?" I looked over at 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmsPochvwF
Daesung.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3h1KWsVmM
"Ya, sure," said Daesung, as he gave it to me.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK1zNrZU0dd
I dialled Lee's number 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeceU7GhuUg
and I placed the phone to my ear. The Toxins and G-Dragon looked on at 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQReFq1mIYa
me, clueless. They were obviously wondering why I was making a call. 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRRTLIU4FiF
They would know soon enough.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqT5jIlPmb
"Hello?" came Lee's voice at the other end of the line.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4MMe2DRRUu
"Lee, it's Sam," I answered.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEydPp4eUYA
"Sam, thank goodness, you called. Did you find them?"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCLFZtexSr
"Ya, I found them," I said, as I looked on at the culprits in front of me. "Do our managers know anything?"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFgMwVcE1G
"No, not yet. But you 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXPUISmvhC
better get back here quick. I can't keep them locked up much longer. And1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbm5kwiBprQ
the press have been waiting for you, so you better hurry."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGEODj4PyO
"We'll be there in thirty minutes."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyjMjE22Rmx
"Okay, I'll be waiting."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjpOCc4HsYJ
I cut the call and gave Daesung his phone back.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3GLQ2oi5x
"Wait, Sam, what's going on?" Daniel asked. "Why were you talking to Lee? Is something wrong?"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI84FnIAdKE
"Everything is wrong," I answered, trying to keep my cool. "I'll tell you later. We better go now."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZFF3GhROJ
"At least tell us what's going on," said Christine. 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSma3ut4Ga
"It's best we get to YG first," said Seungri. "We're wasting a lot of time here."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡylxglzeYWq
"Come on. You heard Seungri, we don't have much time," I said.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQJb6Bqqlt
"But you better change your clothes first," said Zoey. "You know you easily catch a cold. At least get a towel to dry yourself."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42GJBfJQSg
I shook my head. I was 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Zn2EowRcO
really on the edge of losing my temper. But I quickly took in a deep 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAC3lIbBZIh
breath and started to walk away from the pool and the others in my bare 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnlNDSuT1Yw
wet feet and carrying my wet sneakers.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMs9ZgodIH
After walking a few feet1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9aFOKWqXfm
away, I looked behind me and the others just stared at me, with 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMyHFkPgdZq
surprised and confused looks on their faces. The last thing I wanted was1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1AXIKfWBM0
for them to just stand there because they would end up grabbing other 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1alTw5E7F
people's attention which I was highly trying to avoid.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xZ34ICmxR
"Aren't you coming or are you going to run off so that I go looking for you again?" I asked.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ7QWpyA4Pq
None of them answered as1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUZTFHyNMI
they all started walking towards me and walked past heading for the 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHlmPQ0QQx
exit. I stayed for a few minutes from where I stood as I watched them 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0VB1iuWoG
go, except for TOP, who came to stand beside me.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuBsRyQA0ky
"Don't say a word, please," I said as I turned to look at him.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNUXdqR1SC
"I wasn't going to say 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5PkhnJtO3
anything, apparently," said TOP. "I know you're angry and the last thing1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSsOgfF4qZA
you would want to hear from me is advice."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkaengrT19d
I turned to look the other way as I now felt a little guilty. 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvB4Z43kjJ
"Was I harsh on them?" I asked quietly.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOVyguVFVic
"To be honest, you did the best you could not to let your anger get the best of you."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAsYNxvrnax
"I'm still upset, though."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUoysDGqtPa
"And that's normal. They will understand. You're human too."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6l8PgoDv4
"Thanks, TOP." I said, trying to put up a smile. "Sorry for being harsh on you earlier."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1PzWeNKEh6
"It's okay. You guys go on ahead. I'll go get changed and I'll catch up with you later."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuYbQFIf8iS
I gave TOP an assuring 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5MZaDSEoI9
nod and he gave me a pat on my shoulder and walked away. I was on my way1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWy9dIRKWx
again and I found myself outside the indoor water park. I saw the 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2F6CgloVPe
others ahead of me and I kept my distance. I was still soaking wet and I1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgPoLBDm3bv
started to shiver. It was now in the afternoon but the sun still didn't1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9g8BHZP3Jk
seem to warm me up as I expected it to. It was hot, yes, but I still 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2NfTJMbWJ
felt cold because of my dripping clothes.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYM7Lj7pLxa
We all found ourselves 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9Jilnt6iW
back at the back gate of the water park. I found G-Dragon and the Toxins1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ97AyW9Zv0c
all settled in G-Dragon's car. Daesung, Seungri, Hyo-rin and Taeyang 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVNnuiNLOFq
were waiting for me. 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLSfsX6EFQ
"Hey, Sam, you don't 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡle03D2QDtl
mind if I ride along with you, Daesung and Seungri, do you?" Hyo-rin 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFSugZLW3D
asked as she approached me to keep the others out of ear shot.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB9nsBJwotw
"I'll ride with Tae, he shouldn't be alone," I said, giving Hyo-rin a small smile. "Don't worry about it."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKifegDpQBp
Hyo-rin gave me a kind 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQNLNZlA7w
smile and I looked on as she settled in with Daesung and Seungri in the 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDG9l1WkoYX
car. G-Dragon's car took off first, then Daesung's. I continued to watch1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7TnG2CYT6
on as the two cars left the premises and all I did was stand in the 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3Ei4udPKE
sun, trying to take in the warmth, but still shivering like a leaf.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNnzVdGQ2k
I had my eyes closed 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwNQkkbhwh
when I felt something warm on my shoulders. I opened my eyes and I found1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGM0iMtRMsA
Taeyang wrap his warm coat around me.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK7mk03mrJX
"You're really shivering," said Taeyang. "Let's hope you don't get..."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPBUGIpfl5
Before he could finish his sentence, I sneezed.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbK5qjZA50s
"....a cold," said Taeyang, rolling his eyes at me. "Nice one, Sam. Now our managers will get pissed for sure."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGnbmEedFU
"Don't worry, it's just a small sneeze," I said as I sniffed. "I'll be fine by tomorrow."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFVgK0vfhzy
"Let's hope so. Come on, we better get going."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIlEiTdQD9N
Taeyang led me to his 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqiIIAt29pr
car and he helped me open the door to the passenger's seat. We were on 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBYFQiy95AC
the road in no time, and as I sat in the car, I still felt cold that 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡofU35jFBPy
Taeyang had to turn the heater on.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzB8Ya5k6N0
In about thirty minutes,1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6a8af6YoI
we were back in Seoul and back in the YG premises. I found the others 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWXOEYP0Fv
all waiting for us at the front entrance of the building. Taeyang and I 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoP6ZVsoDMK
got out of the car and walked up to them. I led them in, still barefoot 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQ2SvEDa22
and surprisingly at the same time, Collins, Yang Hyun-suk and Lee 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQN8Lf5353X
appeared out of the elevator.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHzyvm2JO7
"Where have you guys been?" Collins asked, as they approached us. "And why do you look so wet, Sam?"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaf2bmNXFWd
"We went to Caribbean Bay," I answered.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKfj7XCSJW
Lee who stood behind 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwqVasUk0uh
Collins gave me a funny startled look. She probably thought I was going 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFi2a42twC
to make up some kind of a lie to cover up for the others. But I had 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB78ngUBvEr
other things in mind.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡELMNVRCj6r
"Caribbean Bay?" Yang Hyun-suk looked surprised. "We had things to sort out here and you went to have fun?"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡprqGsUDwQq
Yang Hyun-suk sounded a 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWPg1UwDrT
little harsh and the rest of us were quiet. I could feel the atmosphere 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡERMfQywIez
behind me grow tense as no one said a word.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Z86wd0REq
"Well, is anyone going to say anything?" Yang Hyun-suk asked.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1pkphWOtz
"We didn't just go there to have fun," I said, with my head down. "If there's anyone to blame for all this, it's me."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzp4FBlM0cP
There was an awkward 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFM1ePZjZ5
silence as I felt all eyes on me. Their eyes felt like piercing needles,1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIl5juaLGmi
but I had to ignore the feeling and carry on.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhHY8bq1BC
"What do you mean?" Collins asked.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwAQn50WHJX
"Well, I hear the press 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjEXq7kImP
are here," said Sam. "And I bet they are here over the video of G-Dragon1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1QEu44KRK
and I. I'll tell you everything from there."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrsQ4Sc5qx
"That won't be 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXxUv4Uf06
necessary," said Yang Hyun-suk. "We can do all of that tomorrow or some 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIH8vqUi6QE
other day. You look all beat and I don't think it will be appropriate to1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcnua0BnuFV
go to the press looking all wet."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnvHLDcGaxh
I breathed out a sigh of1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUJOW7PCFo
relief. Things were simply going the way I thought they would. I just 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAeMetobYPz
hoped that what I was going to do next would work out too.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKm1CdyQCr
"In the meantime, you go1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT38qdzU9KW
to the hotel and get freshened up," said Collins. "We will talk later 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7Tbo2CIoO
on in the evening and you will tell us all about it."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjFwpVK1paZ
I nodded my head in 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmzVt9m2Wrb
agreement. Well, that was a relief. I seriously needed a change of 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYG2Pl9Cijl
clothes as I felt myself shiver vigorously.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vNGIsRvf7
"Come, I'll drive you to the hotel," said Taeyang.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8fBGJLnXn3
"Alright," I said 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZNytU1lqZ
quietly, as I looked up at Lee. She seemed really frightened. The last 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWciVx3pnJV
thing she wanted was for all of us to get into trouble and it seems like1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNpP8vpmNtu
I was only making things worse.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡczRgRJKyEE
Before I turned to leave1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU3BAYnFmBw
with the rest of the group, I gave Lee a wink, assuring her that 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPJP4NZ9Zh
everything was going to be alright and that she should trust me on this 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobyr3lwlV6
one.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡycNQKsq1VQ
***1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR5JgrPcmeG
I sat on the couch all 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKbkaLTAiiG
wrapped up in a blanket, coughing and sniffing like crazy as I continued1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5HLR3FPOTx
staring at the TV. I was watching a K-drama series, "Boys over flowers"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMmOvIpOvxw
and I was really enjoying it, despite being down with a cold. 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu2z8tCQKdY
I had a box of paper 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6rwOxMibT
tissues right beside me and a plastic containing the ones I had blown my1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCqOkLlJ2W
nose on on my other side. Disgusting, I know, but hey, it was only a 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH2tpko11ZN
cold and there was nothing I could do about it.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ7RPMxSMuW
I continued watching the1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2VQrMRGzSs
series when the waiter came in to bring in my warm chicken soup and 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWp5FISqwNf
announced that Taeyang had come to see me.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8iTfleZTAL
"Hey, how are you doing?" Taeyang asked after the waiter gave me the soup and left while he came in.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡozbCThdrpT
"Never better," I said, 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTVCC0m95Gi
sounding funny with a blocked nose. "Take a seat, please. Not too close 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVz5X2aoSJ
to me though, I don't want you to catch my cold."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOSrLW3knU
"I wasn't even going to try," Taeyang took a couch right next to mine, but far away from me as possible.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3RLHY23by5
"So, watching k-drama, huh?" Taeyang asked as he looked at the flat screen TV on the wall.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjZkVen1A6p
"Ya, I'm actually enjoying it," I said as I put in a spoonful of chicken soup in my mouth. Mmm, it was so tasty.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqwcu3nRIza
"And the others?" 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKA5yN1nxz
When Taeyang meant the "others," I knew he meant The Toxins. I just rolled my eyes and continued staring at the TV.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1i2D2j2lB
"As usual, they went for practise two hours ago," I answered, not sounding like I cared.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpWhbHmn5CV
"Are you still mad at them?" Taeyang asked.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwnnQddE66
I got the remote and paused the TV. I couldn't catch up with reading the subtitles and Taeyang's question just confused me.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnC0yJh6Cpb
"I don't know," I said, staring at my soup.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMA8g7IWD45
"You don't know or you are?"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZjMSo5MvX
I shrugged my shoulders. To be completely honest, I am still mad, but then again, I felt like I wasn't and that felt confusing.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZKMVYaL6Pk
"I don't know, Tae," I 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxZXPWIzDNt
answered. "I'm still upset with all of them, but another part of me is 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp27X6j0POg
telling me that I won't stay that way for long and I should just try to 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4x9SEn8ksX
forget all that happened yesterday."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxR1MGw47A
"Ya, I understand. They 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxBxgLgt9PV
never listened to you and you had to carry on with their game. And in 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYezku4jFy
the end, you take the blame because you knew how angry our managers were1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu0oPAi9zRr
going to get."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDbgmQ19UV
I looked on at Taeyang 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0P4RL4B6FS
as I sniffed. He was right. Yesterday was tough, and coming up with a 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHBWW7RRV4
plan to help the others get out of trouble was even tougher when you 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkBB0iK3jpA
know you weren't only dealing with Collins, but also with Yang Hyun-suk 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9O68KRyEG
who was as tough as nails.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKwGijYRLJF
Last night, I took the 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkg1GpiXjo
blame and told our two managers that I was the one who decided that we 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDlSBLGSkRv
should all go out and the others had nothing to do with it. I told them 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBgcPvypgh
that the others had insisted on working on the song, but I was the one 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIGaKVAIcD
who objected and made everyone do whatever they wanted. 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTqWjX1QeAw
Apparently, the managers1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡird7pyVDmz
weren't that mad at me at all. If I hadn't lied on their part, they 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡleFueIrza5
would've been way mad at the others instead. They were glad I had bought1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkpwsfsVkV
these guys back on time without creating much of a scene on social 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7VwJ47dLP5
media. Luckily, only a few people had taken pictures of us. Most people 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Sm2Vx2QF2
on social media were even surprised that BigBang and The Toxins were at 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVlIFNUaNl
Caribbean Bay. Well, at least my plan worked out. What I was truly 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaEPpB97oRT
avoiding, was grabbing too much attention from our fans, the paparazzi 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9QRfL0clOw
and the reporters.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3aJYgnVXI
After my confrontation 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVE3MXneeU
with our managers, I went straight to bed without talking to anyone and I1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHxNjz6QKbR
didn't have supper. One, I was totally beat from all that had happened,1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAmUElKEpKv
and two, I just didn't feel like talking to anyone.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDxkYgPHSK
"Huh, I guess am still upset," I said, as I took in another spoon of soup in my mouth. "Especially after what GD did to me."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhk2OcvweJy
"Ya, what happened was kind of dramatic," said Taeyang.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55knMItf1S
"You saw that?" I looked surprised. "I thought you came later on when I fell into the pool."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjZGs1SIgp
"No, Daesung and I arrived when you got to the top."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZBvpfEGxI5
"Oh," I sniffed and coughed. "Ya, it was kind of dramatic."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLBpDJ0oXIS
"Have you tried talking to GD?"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD5T9GKlL8Q
"To be honest, I haven't1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOv0fIAsSSp
even tried. I don't even want to see nor talk to him. I would probably 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhjZiuEYba
slap him in the face if I see him."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCnH8j1z43R
"I don't doubt that."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrXX7xv0mps
"And thank goodness my 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHruq5C04wA
new phone isn't coming in until late in the afternoon. I wouldn't like 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1zGeWMDpXn
anyone calling me trying to tell me how sorry they are. Right now, all I1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBreNrroFI
want to do is watch some TV."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxjo1Y5r4S
I quickly drank my 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL6CJXQeOvU
chicken soup from the bowl. And my goodness, the cooks here really knew 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuviDGGnB2y
how to make lovely soup. I would probably order for it again if I had 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhy0s5aXI2i
to.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡayTEYRnsGW
"So, how are you and Hyo-rin?" I asked, after putting the bowl aside.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLbymrmN8i
"Still not talking to each other," Taeyang amswered as he leaned back on the couch and stared at the ceiling.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡll32vFAq7H
"Looks like I'm not the only one not talking to people, aren't I?"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdUKuyNFi5k
"Nope."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJbcsS6J3l
I stared at Taeyang as he continued to look at the ceiling as I thought of what to say or ask next.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBunZszq7JL
"What really happened to you two yesterday?" I asked.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡswwEN7X1Xy
Taeyang didn't say 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoXA3U67iyy
anything at first. Then he breathed out heavily and said, "what happened1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNlQLbEw0lp
to us happens to every other couple, Sam."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMtZFnvzQT
"I know you fought or 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgCr6arIpw7
probably had an argument. I just want to know what it was all about. 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvr7wVwq5jm
That's if you're willing to tell me. I won't push you if you don't."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGMn1J5yg3
I noticed Taeyang smile 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcbk3oPp4pI
while he continued to look upwards. It was probably over what I had 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb1sbpgeBal
said. I was not one who liked to push people over talking about their 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡojmeUioBQO
problems. I wasn't like Zoey who always got away with such things.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2TFzDeygyw
"Aren't you going to say anything?" I asked Taeyang who continued to smile.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWi2dhDkQv
"I'm just wondering why some things you wish for never come to pass."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYVAi6FB1F
I raised an eyebrow this time around. Was he diverting the question or was he talking in riddles now?1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0dU6TsjME
"I thought I was the only one who is sick today," I said rolling eyes.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNeGHdFYEd
"Don't mind what I just said," said Taeyang, as he looked at me. "It's nothing."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYoTD5qemfi
"Mmm, figured. If you don't want to say anything, it's fine by.."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMYPxSfMOx
Before I could finish my1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzEgpGlYUV3
sentence, I sneezed. Like, really loud. There was silence at first 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDgWB1k1uSc
until Taeyang started laughing at me while I blew my nose with a tissue.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3C1N2Llu1X
"It's not funny, Tae," I said furrowing my eyebrows and threw the used up tissue in the plastic.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYTfZ070kRd
"You sound funny when you sneeze. That's why I laughed," said Taeyang, giving me his eye smile.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmykDaDWuX1
"Well, it's good I made you laugh then. Just like me, you haven't been smiling at all since yesterday."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ97tKE3QHOE
"Looks like the two of us really have a lot in common when things don't go our way."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9VgtIJTQWa
"Yep, cheers to that." 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1F6AzxoHa
"So, have you thought of any lyrics for the song yet?" Taeyang asked.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLn8rZEG1Ad
I slapped my face. I had completely forgot about the song since I was running up and down the whole of yesterday.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2mApE9Bp88
"I completely forgot," I said, as I sniffed. "Weren't you guys supposed to work on it today?"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKAwqrrIvo
"We can't work on it without you," said Taeyang. "You and G-Dragon decided that the both of you would work on it together."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6j5Metvox
"Don't mention his name because I feel like breaking something."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ513ZZXEgn
"Wow, that sounds personal."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKvfZsbdwZ
"Ya," I nodded my head. "It really is."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjPH4VZaVl
"Then how are the two of you going to work on the lyrics if you're still angry at him?"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8NLaWccj55
"I think I've a better 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7si3ztiaVM
idea. Let's all just work on the song together. I may be the songwriter 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8puydhVVz
in my group, but I always give a chance for others to bring in their 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFTmMBZH6Jb
lyrics. It's better that way."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJWdjO0V8X
"That's not a bad idea. Aren't you going to tell GD about it?"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhM3fxrx6KO
"Uh, no. Until I'm no longer mad at him, you will have to act as my middle man."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxX60W1Ia5
"Me? Your middle man?" Taeyang burst into a fit of laughter. "That's going to be classic."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCOndjrLu1c
"You should be honoured. Most people would die just to be my middle man."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJexr7VZG7e
"I wouldn't. FYI, I'm a pop star just like you and people would die just the same."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLjv7l4OXQ
"Haha, good point."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKg7eOiL2H
Taeyang and I continued 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcy8XtuzDZl
to talk for a good thirty minutes and it was so much fun. I was glad he 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7f3fXIWYd0
came to see me because life tends to be boring sometimes when you're 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11WNIlS7WZ
alone. Apart from talking about the events that took place yesterday, we1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalRhqGvW3B
talked about other fun things concerning our personal lives. Mostly 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwT5qlVi9Sq
focusing on the funny things that goes on whenever we were with your 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqp8rM3glM0
group members. I mostly talked about Zoey, since she always creates 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0iJTRREAO
drama in my life, while Taeyang talked about Seungri, who always got 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOTdWfQr6v
into trouble since he was the "maknae" (막내) (youngest) in the group.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO11KYlq6Tt
While the two of us were1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Pk7pC7OHx
laughing after Taeyang finished telling me a funny story about Seungri,1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkvWOMa81Q
I received a phone call from the hotel land line. 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0VzyRRBhr
I quickly went over to 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFi7HUFhXA
the phone, trying to calm myself after laughing so much. Luckily, it was1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1fawfXa6p
just the receptionist downstairs, informing me that Seungri and Daesung1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDxZLJxRrZ
had come to visit. I told the receptionist to tell them that they could1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0LMrbMhw3n
come up and I put the receiver down.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW5zyi5KSMt
"Speaking of the devil," I said as I passed Taeyang, going back to my seat, "he is here with Daesung."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQuDwKOxgL8
"Seungri is here? Well, that's a surprise."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡops0uFx34O
"I'm not," I said shrugging my shoulders. "He's obviously here to check up on me, since he calls me his panda."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnG1BlJ77Ge
"Trust me, you're one of his many pandas," said Taeyang, as he smiled.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkbTKs0vBk
"Shut up, Tae!" I threw a pillow at him and he blocked it as he raised his arm.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUfBp6G2apl
"Eww, that pillow 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNzoh7yDAk
probably has your germs on it," said Taeyang, as he disgustingly looked 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVKzdx1uxl
at the pillow I had thrown at him on the floor.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWAxuxd8pkB
"You're welcome," I said with a devious smile on my face.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqdV1Wkclg
A few seconds later, we 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyzEcxXtp3l
heard the sound of the elevator then Seungri and Daesung appeared into 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUNb8c2Zo4
the lounge. Seungri was holding a huge stuffed panda and Daesung was 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8FE27eIWCC
holding a box of chocolates.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNRMhulo5v
"Awww, is that for me?" I asked as I turned on the couch to face them.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCrRJiNc89l
"Ah, no, the panda is a 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVmlHTGNAF
very good friend of mine and just came along to see the famous B.K who 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5Q0zLxnZ0
is sick," said Seungri. Daesung and Taeyang burst out laughing at the 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsn2CzWNaA
same time.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgYeClWhwdz
"Very funny, Seungri," I said, as I frowned at him. "Give him to me, I want to hug him."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6HlwQZJtaB
"And give him your cold? No ways," said Seungri, hugging and holding onto the panda.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVE9lx7Qx9h
"Do you really want me to come over there and fight for it?"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡneXLqeG0pC
"I would give the lady the panda if I were you, Seungri," said Taeyang. "You wouldn't want to see her nasty side."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡExeXPl6e54
"Hey, I don't have a nasty side," I said, as I looked at Taeyang.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzUTRFvaB9
"Everybody has one," said Taeyang, shrugging his shoulders.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUbAHL9Dls
"Never mind that," said Daesung, "just give her the panda, Seungri."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbdhfTC6Apz
"Really? But he'll be scared without me," said Seungri, still holding onto the panda.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQyMIb2HAy
"For goodness sake, I 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5aPvVY9ncK
know the panda is mine," I said. "And besides, we ladies are good with 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHlDG9LOeT
handling cute and cuddly stuff. Mr Panda won't ever feel lonely or 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxW0e8bKQlk
scared with me."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZKLbS01lNa
"Ya, I know he won't," said Seungri with a smile as he walked over to me and gave me the panda.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ821pqabYc
I took the panda in my 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtiKM18J4Cj
arms and I hugged and cuddled it as though I was a little girl who just 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbsTtnZLETs
got her doll for the first time. It was so soft and fuzzy that for a 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCm4vI0hr9u
moment, it felt like a warm pillow I could sleep on. The new smell of 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡce07UqChkk
the panda triggered my nose though, and I sneezed so loud, yet again.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKCgCCFwaVE
"My goodness, Mr Panda would need a doctor," said Seungri. "You're gonna get him sick."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6N0bqQn2QQ
"He's officially mine now," I said as I sniffed. "We're going to be the best of besties."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHkTg56EV7
"Whatever, just take good care of him for me, okay?"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsBLv7iyqFi
"I will," I said with a smile as I cuddled the panda in my arms.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1NkMAOT8R4
"I got you some chocolates," said Daesung, as he handed over the box of chocolates to me. "Every girl's favourite treat."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqgXlx9PslU
"Aww, thanks Daesung," I1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7W9FpNqHyQ
said as I smiled at him and I felt myself blush when I remembered what 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEb3EoszQcY
happened between him and I yesterday at the park. "That's so sweet of 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VvwFe0Vyb
you. See, Seungri, you should be a little bit more like him."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyfAUNW4euS
"What did I do?" Seungri asked looking surprised. "I bought you a panda."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgCf6IeQla
"Never mind, come take a seat, please," I said. "It's good you two came to see me."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKpjN7fZJuE
"Are you feeling any better?" Daesung asked as he and Seungri sat on the other couch opposite Taeyang.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXS2Mh1b4Ow
"Well, I'm not really feeling that sick," I said, as I sniffed. "I'll be fine tomorrow, you'll see."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHY3VGeESVz
"I doubt that," Taeyang blurted out.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7lkYmmivDk
"Ah, put a sock in it, Tae!" I said angrily. "You really know how to make me feel bad."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH1OW58Wcfb
"Ya, I do."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzOsVyqkNT
While the four of us 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmMsS43k1g2
were chatting and Seungri kept on pulling funny faces at me every now 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcLoSzzXlt1
and then, just to make me laugh, The Toxins arrived. At first I didn't 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrT6QGuus7D
notice since I was laughing so much, until Daesung looked behind me and 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmC6je8JQP7
said:1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzI519NBDBR
"Hey, Zoey." 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8yhkxXkcA
I stopped laughing automatically and I turned to looked behind me. Zoey was standing in the passage with her training bag. 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZUR1i2tw3Q
"Hey," Zoey replied. "I was wondering why there was laughter when we came in."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMZtx459Cy
"We came to see how Sam was doing," said Taeyang.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2uFqEjezD
"It's good you came to 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUkvp1q4W0h
keep her company while we were gone." Zoey turned to look at me, but I 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg7JHdQX2KA
quickly turned away, putting myself back in my usual position on the 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIPBdJKyty
couch.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1CWLkSFtT
"Hey, what's with all the laughter?" came Mike's voice. "Oh, you guys are here, that's great!"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQsFmCniP8W
"Who's here?" Christine asked, also joining the others. "Hey, guys!"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4pCNektG2s
"Hey, how was practise?" Daesung asked.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjTxoGrKgp
"Tiring as usual," I heard Daniel reply. 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo9d6SobNSb
"We will just put our stuff away and join you in a second," said Zoey.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡevIAHChChn
"Ya, please do, it will be so much fun," said Seungri.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVasMCTCNkP
I tugged at my panda's 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckw4jmjxDz
ear absentmindley as I felt Taeyang's eyes on me. I looked at him and it1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5PgnBw2q7
was obvious he could read my mind. I was still not in a mood to talking1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxn1OmwSS9
to the other Toxins, and I so much as wanted as to leave the room.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmnPoD5OgS
The Toxins came back to 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKhsQyZptd
the lounge area. Zoey sat next to me and I moved away from her as I held1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKE0zy3zSzg
my panda like it was the only thing that ever mattered to me. Christine1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrrUjOQW3Uo
went to join Seungri and Daesung, while Mike and Daniel joined Taeyang.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGTnvgYLC3B
For a moment, no one 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm2CnjSA7qu
said a word to each other. There was silence. As for me, I kept on 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BKmRbtLlr
tugging at the panda's ear still not looking at Zoey.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3vNxdmy52m
"Oh, Sam, you've a panda," said Daniel, breaking the silence.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6w3QIE7j1O
"Ah huh," I replied dully. 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhsqzZ6fpyB
"I got it for her," said Seungri, with a smile.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT4OW8Ej5Kw
"Aww, it's so cute," said Christine. "You should get me one just like that someday."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgUF4zHbPrn
I stared up at the 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡozNfa4W7Rp
ceiling and then at the panda. I got the box of chocolates that were 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3lmh17LY4
next to me, opened it and put a piece of chocolate in my mouth.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr8GSmXxk0Y
"And she also has chocolates too," said Zoey. "I also want some."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbauBV58bG7
When Zoey tried to reach1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7bPPTYGOFD
out for chocolates, I lifted the box and took it to my other side to 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcNDaA1Wms6
prevent her from getting any. I looked at her as I furrowed my eyebrows.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrhXnDROfxq
"Sorry, I should have asked," said Zoey.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLBrmqVZXwz
"Ya, you should have!" I snapped at her.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbGkbF14UC9
Zoey looked hurt with 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn8P6iUdMZp
the way I responded to her, but at the moment, it didn't even matter. I 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlIkD6uBDa
turned to face the other way sucking at the chocolate in my mouth.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvVBs3QbYV
"Are you still mad at us?" Zoey asked.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtLksybmfyz
I didn't answer as I put1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6FaqTrV8ZC
another piece of chocolate in mouth. My silence was an obvious answer. I1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9n6uI1wN3
was still mad, especially at Zoey.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpa8BoAyerc
"I know it's a little 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15YnF7nswa
late to say this," started Zoey. "But we're really sorry for what 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGZVXngVdQ
happened yesterday. Yes, we didn't listen to you as always and we're 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrfZT13FmZ8
sorry for that too. You even took the blame for us. And I know it 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoFAjdf9xx1
doesn't look like we appreciate what you do for us, but we really do. 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRIhvshYJZC
You've saved our necks a number of times before from Collins, but this 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmfJRoiqyeb
time you had to deal with Yang Hyun-suk too."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhtq9Ozcdx
I stared at the ceiling as I sucked at the chocolate in my mouth as though I wasn't listening.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7S4oUrW3pl
"I don't like it when 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJ3REdrNf7
you're not talking to me," Zoey continued. "And last night when you 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhIr2NKF5Wm
didn't say a word, I knew you were going to give us the silent 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiGOK9XaCEd
treatment. You know you're my best friend and my only source of 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfR5ibAI2Ty
happiness everyday. You know I'm not myself without you. I'm really 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJdGfkBMhp
sorry, Sam."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNqr0oxWkdU
"We're all sorry, Sam," said Daniel. "I know you're hurt real bad because of our silly actions yesterday."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUVLu5nK8wk
"I'm sorry too," said 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLl2N7RaFF9
Mike. "I should have acted like the responsible one, but we all know 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5tKHGbGAhE
that's not the case. You really saved us yesterday and all we want is 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1bJdSja3w2
for you to talk to us again."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc2ffpeoofo
"I'm also sorry, Sam," 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8cjC5W9K6
said Christine. "We might say 'we won't do it again,' but we keep on 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhaWGZgwSZ
doing the same thing. We can't do anything without you. You're our 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Q6wCvAYMf
leader."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjN8Gg3eF0F
I still didn't say a 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6N79UF1kwd
word to them as I continued to stare upwards. I knew it would come to 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNRh0od93Hj
this, them saying that they were sorry. My hatred for them wasn't going 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLmw2YGux9e
to last forever and I knew that very well. They were family and I loved 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Lugkykt4z
them despite the awful things they put me through.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhiPTPDvlF5
"Aren't you going to say something, Sam?" Taeyang asked. 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjX8f5qLoip
"And what should I say?" I asked. "They know completely well that I can't stay mad at them forever, so...."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2BpSeZBRWe
"Wait, you're not mad any more?" Zoey asked, with a little hint of excitement in her voice.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmHxoPVshhF
I sighed deeply and I turned to face Zoey. And I each gave the other Toxins a look as well.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPvfqmG1XHI
"I'm mad and pretty much1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyb8Bupf7na
angry with all of you," I said. "But it's obvious I can never stay mad 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9WzaBCdUhC
at you forever. So, yes, I forgive you."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7aCWDE2i5H
"Seriously, you mean it?" Daniel asked.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MOP1X4P6H
I sniffed and said, "ya, I mean it."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1yKRbglxW
"Aww, I love you, Sam!" Zoey exclaimed as she tried to come close to hug me.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGIe578icjh
"Whoa! Back up!" I said 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBQX9RxLJb
with my hands raised to stop her from getting any closer to me. "I've a 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0pqDznWnzA
cold. Just because I forgive you, doesn't mean you can hug me."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyX9gVLI0T2
"Ah, you! Always acting 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVOpMKyX2u
like you don't want a hug. Come here!" Zoey wrapped her arms around me 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGOh7ZOZhCz
and hugged me. "Your cold isn't that contagious and I don't care if I 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxswDPl3KG1
catch it anyway."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjPRSZVJRa
Christine, Daniel and 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5L6phPw7i
Mike also came over and we were all hugging each other on the couch. 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2Sh7BNWOt
Even the panda got caught up in the hug. It was kind of nice and I 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0it68tCET
smiled. I completely wasn't mad at them any more, that's for certain.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16oubV5aus
"Aww, let me take a pic of this beautiful moment," said Deasung as he pulled out his phone and took a photo.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2VFC0Q8Q6i
"I'm glad you guys finally resolved things ," said Taeyang.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVN8kHAzs9
"Ya, I'm glad we did," I said, as I felt my nose twitch. "Can you guys please stop hugging me, I'm about to...."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxvZEPlxDQ
I sneezed and the other Toxins quickly withdrew their arms around me and looked on as though I was contagious.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgWEZtkO4g
"Excuse me," I said as I got a tissue and blew my nose. "I just can't help myself."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvoDhaP7Lo
"Don't worry, you won't 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjd3Xk9foNt
help yourself laughing once you see this pic," said Daesung, as he 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwyJFCR62W
looked at his phone with a smile on his face.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXsZSMMlcf7
"Please don't tell me you captured me sneezing," I rolled my eyes when I obviously knew the answer.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ271b8MVzOH
"Ya, he did," said Seungri, with a smirk on his face.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxJui0XTFQ
"Never mind. It's almost lunch time and I'm starving," I said. "What can we order for lunch?"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkEzDolAKL
"I'm glad you asked," said Zoey. "You just sit back and relax, my hungry kitty. We already have lunch covered."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7iO7lQsyCE
"What do you mean?" I asked, looking at Zoey with an eyebrow raised.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZpH9wCFcWz
"We thought of having a special lunch just for you since you were so mad at us," said Daniel. 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp7WBv8BOmd
"Well, that's interesting," said Taeyang. "Weren't you going to invite us as well?"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTgJMObZzye
"Well, ya, but surprisingly you brought yourselves here," said Zoey. "We were about to call you as soon as we arrived."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkLOz3Gnuk
"We already called the others so, no need," said Mike.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWRkkPe53E
At that moment, I had 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxt7aXdqH3c
put in another piece of chocolate in my mouth and I almost choked on it.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiz2OhvoLCx
Mike who was the closet to me patted my back.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqQPi3Fx6N
"Hey, are you okay?" he asked.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3p6QZtrg4
"I'm fine, I guess," I said, as I held my throat.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wLnNeMEv0
"This is what happens when you don't share chocolates," said Zoey. "Here, I'll help you."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZjIlwN9gSd
Zoey got the box of 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTCRRUKuTsc
chocolates and Christine went to sit next to Zoey to eat them while I 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwo7QIkYgV
continued rubbing my throat, deep in thought.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovl3Hf4Jwa
"Can you excuse me for a second?" I asked as I got up from the couch with my panda and left the room.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg85Me8AQh2
I was in the passage as I1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrccT2YLWe4
leaned on the wall, close to the door of the room Zoey and I were 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ97q8VismQG
sleeping in. I held the panda in my arms and hugged it tightly. I sighed1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyiDU15C23k
in what felt like sadness.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQ1SqJygDX
"You aren't okay, again, aren't you?" came Taeyang's voice behind me.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJxSbqh6GXh
I sniffed and without facing him said, "you already know. I don't have to say anything."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡykIvoKnGS6
I heard his footsteps 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2CTnaH9ePI
and I knew he was coming closer. He also leaned his back against the 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYF55BMolQ
wall as he stood right next to me and I heard him sigh.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiCO2diOiuC
"Are you really going to stay mad at GD for long?" he asked.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkUjZHoBbD4
"And are you going to do the same with Hyo-rin?" I also asked.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡih04Y1KwU7
"Are we really do this right now?"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8MntcZ4cyL
"Do you want us to continue making each other feel bad about yourselves?" 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwV8t5XgKU
Taeyang chuckled silently and I smiled, still not looking at him.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOmIyTYuG6
"This isn't working, is it?" Taeyang asked.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7GW9aPp4g
"Nope." 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsqiVDZFvQX
I heard Taeyang take in another deep breath and said, "I really admire you, Sam."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRRrPzAJc7
My eyes almost felt like1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVuHbm5tzc2
they would pop out of their sockets. He admired me? Like how? Admiring 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIZgSxA0loL
meant a lot of things. And right now I felt really confused.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHBMkhmcor
I turned to look at him 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYnHXu2XdNq
and I found him staring at me. He gave me a simple smile and I didn't 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL31c1MOZhv
know where to begin to ask what he truly meant.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zYh4xd8xw
"I....uh, what do you, uh.... mean when you said you admired me?" I asked as I stammered.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26AFkHP7lN
"That you're surrounded 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnL7FtImkUk
by such amazing people in your life that you're even able to forgive 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLaVpyIfeO
them despite you getting hurt by them," he answered. "I admire that 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZLmeASs7B
you've such a good heart. You don't seem to hold grudges for long."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDa3tY5Ggz
"A good heart? Really? I don't think so. If it's anyone with a good heart it's you, Tae, not me." 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXziGuggo3i
"Then if you can see that in me, I can also see that in you."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAGmJiLpbo2
I sighed and I gave Taeyang a stern eye. "So what's your point?"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDx34TwA83P
"That you also shouldn't stay mad at GD."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjEjeQcKX3Z
"Tae, you don't know how I felt yesterday when he betrayed me and left me dangling on the cliff for my life."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Dwoy1AtFq
Taeyang raised an eyebrow at me. "You felt betrayed?"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy4eLw8rhhs
"Well, ya." I shrugged my shoulders. "What GD did to me wasn't.....It was so not....."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhHNnomSND
Apparently, I couldn't 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrHfgQkKId9
seem to find the right words. I didn't even realise how I felt when I 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmAA80iqPl4
talked about this to Taeyang. On one hand I was confused and on the 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtYXZq2SFyf
other, I was still mad I could break something. I was even squeezing my 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQiERJoHvhW
panda tightly. If it were a live animal, I would have choked it to 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdX5T9TYfF
death.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhnhPXcnk16
Taeyang still looked at me with his eyebrow raised and I didn't like that he wasn't saying anything.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmrAD5sUy7
"Aren't you going to say anything, Tae?" I asked, sounding frustrated. "Don't look at me like that."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYOw6j7yhL
Taeyang folded his arms 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqcT98xO8qV
and said, "if you really want me to say something, I'll say what I think1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQ4ycMnPLc
and what I'm seeing right now. You aren't mad at GD. You're just hurt."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2rsi89jiS
"Hurt? I don't get it." I felt even more confused.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpqZSoDu1R
"You're may think you're1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdgesqtLg1
upset and angry, when actually you're hurt. You just said you felt 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZ0ra3nmy8
betrayed with what GD did to you. Feeling betrayed isn't getting angry, 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAuOpNGsjgh
but feeling hurt."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxfysM22kE9
I slowly took in what Taeyang said and I couldn't help but feel he was right on this one.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRyu1F6NNPk
"But I wouldn't feel 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiqTgQ055vH
hurt or betrayed if I...." I was soon hit with the most shocking 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr0AVSwBU5X
revelation of my life and I stopped myself in mid sentence as I looked 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ3jCr3vMAY
at Taeyang.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvwCOFo6j3r
Taeyang gave me that 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqymvhbeDbC
look that he already knew what I was about to say. And he probably had 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmAsw6ptTh
figured it out a whole lot sooner than I did. I shook my head at him, 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWszod6OBu
while in return, he nodded.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5NqR2Z5YW
"No, freaking way," I said, trying not to raise my voice. 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtcHPdULWn
"Ya," said Taeyang. "Believe it or not, it seems like you like him."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFKYqqNeho
I didn't say a word as I1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4pBNWCDgfG
went back to leaning my back against the wall. I buried my chin into my1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtxY5XspAb
panda's soft head not really believing what just happened. The thought 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6e0SfHYMeG
of liking GD clouded my mind. Not only that. What happened between 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwakghmy2ui
Daesung and I at the park really made things complicated.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfdc6g5bhc
"I guess you're right," I muttered to Taeyang. "But I can't tell for sure if I really like him or not."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfq4C1ZrsxM
"Maybe all you need is a little time to figure it out," said Taeyang. "Right now, you're just confused."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeeihBz9Oyi
"I'm 'really' confused. You've no idea."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOpc1NQ5D7l
"Did something else happen that you aren't telling me?"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJsCDqyba88
If there was ever a way I1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdiGm8xepAT
would personally give Taeyang an award for, was for mind reading. It's 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVEcP1HZ6W0
like he knew what was going on inside my head. I wondered if I should 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO8Xff4YEpP
tell him about Daesung too, but I was saved my the bell.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPUhxvEl45Q
"Hey, you two, let's go, lunch is ready downstairs," said Zoey appearing in the passage. 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3SeHpXj0re
"Okay, let me put my panda away," I said as I quickly disappeared into the room and I left it on my bed. 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKt9G5GjxI
When I came out, I still found Taeyang where I had left him and the two of us went to join the others entering the elevator.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWYBGda6C1
"You two are really close today. Are you up to something?" Zoey asked Taeyang and I as we got into the elevator.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv2JBbpmyci
"No, why do you ask?" I asked.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTnCQpt8rqY
"Well, I'm just asking,"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGsnVqwbDER
said Zoey, as she playfully scratched the back of her head. "Who knows,1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9EhNvRSCDZ
Taeyang might steal you away from me and become your new best friend."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDXTojR4cX
"Sounds like you're jealous," said Seungri, with a mocking smile on his face.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSsMNdbuFWy
"No, I'm not!" Zoey snapped.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71IvQ9lbqO
"Hilarious," muttered Taeyang, as he smiled.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjSGawfV208
"If I knew that's what you were thinking about, I wouldn't have asked," I said, as I rolled my eyes.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVwabJcgu4
I pressed the button 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGeFOqxzuW2
leading us to the ground floor and the doors to the elevator closed 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9a8AVYuDB4
before us. In a matter of seconds, we found ourselves on the ground 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9RopJbHSs
floor and we all walked out of the elevator.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrI8WTjSzac
We went to the main 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTEmthbOGB
hotel dinning room and a waiter lead us to the table reserved for us for1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaYyd5uj9Ec
lunch. It was a huge round table in the VIP section. There were ten 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7gYIM26iq
seats around the table, obviously for all BigBang and Toxins members.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ86eTR1iaqj
"Why didn't you invite, our managers and Lee?" I asked Zoey as we approached the table.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMmwa48fanI
"Are you serious? Those guys are busy and you wanted me to invite them?" Zoey asked. 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq7qK07cEhZ
"To be honest, we just 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPln4iGlS6K
wanted to avoid them asking us questions about yesterday," said Daniel. 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuEmVbWcvB1
"We wanted it to be strictly Toxins and BigBang."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWL2a2Kzts
"Was that so hard to say?" I asked Zoey upon Daniel's answer.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvRxJkdG3Rw
"Maybe. Let's forget about it and sit, shall we?" Zoey suggested and she walked ahead of us, reaching the table first.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTK9aqqJAbF
We all got to the table and before I could pull out my chair, Taeyang pulled the chair out for me and I glady sat.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbAdbUAFizJ
"Thanks, Tae," I said as I smiled up at him.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGzRltCJ8pd
"You're welcome," said Taeyang as he sat next to me and Daesung sat on my other side.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2cOTZ3CwJu
"Okay, weird, you two are getting real close," said Zoey as she sat across the table looking directly at Taeyang and me.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGqd9huwRR
"Nah, I don't think so,"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ESzceZ5sB
said Christine. "Taeyang is just so sweet. I wish I was the sick one so1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjv9riQYqv
he would be treating me like that."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEBRcUfQs6X
"Mmm, I don't think so,"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrZf1pjqOf
said Zoey, shaking her head. "Did something happen between the two of 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJnk8daP1P
you yesterday that I'm not aware of?"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNiyzZ4Q6oH
"My goodness," I rolled my eyes and sniffed. "Stop making a drama out of everything, Zoey."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZz7ozmvTy4
"I'm not," said Zoey, shrugging her shoulders.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSBNKXdlDmL
"Then, stop trying to make one."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCD1cCQH5d
"Before you two decide to tear each other apart," said Seungri. "Can we please have our food now? I'm starving."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ622m9Jqq9t
"Ya, me too," said Mike.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Vf9ARr1xw
"Wait, we've to wait for TOP and GD to get here first," said Zoey.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4P3gp6kbVY
"Seriously?" Daniel asked. "Do we really have to wait?"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6TImvZChlg
"We can't really be so sure how long they're going to take to get here," said Daesung.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh9nc2slBfY
"They will be here any moment now," said Zoey as she stared at her fancy white wrist watch. "Trust me."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7A10Bt5wu
"Really? Can we just get on with it?" Mike asked.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6OHXacqeVp
"We haven't even passed a minute, and you're complaining already?" Daesung asked almost in a fit of laughter.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCdhkYNaYuI
"Ah, here they come," said Zoey as she looked behind me. "Told you they will be here."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhAAdNcDJj6
I didn't even dare try 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfw9ibwgMOl
to look behind me as I twirled a strand of my hair with my fingers as I 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw7BoXoj4pX
coughed. Zoey got up from her seat and ran over to G-Dragon and TOP.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWGdljgTJE4
"I'm so glad you're here," said Zoey. 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUa8oIIwJbO
"I'm glad you invited us," came TOP's voice. "How is our patient doing?"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkEwpgt2PA3
"Why don't you see for yourself?" Zoey suggested.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoA3VsdQdcc
I heard footsteps coming1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ472B1ENONe
towards the table and I couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcV3lT3mGO
as I moved in my seat. Taeyang must have noticed because he turned to 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzXGZL2xGfY
look at me.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ6LCDcFbQR
"Are you okay?" he whispered.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxIB5UqSAi
"I'm trying to," I whispered back.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNTLW9grw7
I soon felt strong hands1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpn78yRTgz6
grip my shoulders and I was startled. For a moment, I thought it was GD1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0ODxzyIQw
until I took a whiff of TOP's musky cologne.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtoXNqPUzwX
"Hi, Sam," said TOP, as he bent over to give me a peck on the cheek. "How are you doing?"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxBgOD3gcvy
"I'm a whole lot better,1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GZapGi8aP
thanks," I replied, as I felt myself blush and the spot where TOP 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUc08ALP4tk
pecked me burn up. "It's nothing serious." I sniffed.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjhwrrHV9TQ
"Glad to hear that."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhDQQAxu5D
When TOP let go of my shoulders and walked away to take his seat next to Mike, I heard G-Dragon's voice behind me.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNZVnUrkg4
"I'm glad you're okay, Sam. I thought of the worst when you got sick."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRt7X4AphyM
I was planning not to 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpJmxIstqax
turn and look at G-Dragon, but I did anyway. When I looked at him, he 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRbvBMUsSW6
was staring at me with those captivating eyes of his. I could tell that 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkEZm1bYcZY
he was sorry for what he did to me yesterday. I was wondering whether to1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡymjA3va0Ag
jump at him and tear him apart, or just let the problem go like water 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeSVmBLkumm
under the bridge.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM6iJuBSY7C
I smiled, at least that was an effort, and said, "I'm fine, GD, my cold isn't serious neither is it contagious."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgn60OsQmm
"Wait, you're not mad at me anymore?" he asked.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCDG9JozEtM
I tried not to frown. "Let's not talk about that. I'm starved."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNBmMDhHPKd
"Okay, then," said Zoey, as she wrapped her arm around G-Dragon's elbow. "Let's sit and have lunch."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbAYv3wBNaX
Zoey and G-Dragon sat down next to each other as they were conversating about something.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsmOFVfUtgb
"You know what? At least I tried not to sound mad at him," I said to Taeyang.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3hp9cXRymr
"Will you try to keep that up for long?" Taeyang asked.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBfbsLPoyFw
"If I can manage to have lunch without any mishaps, then I know things will be okay."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJlnz4dO71
The waiters soon came 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmDFVRyfwtU
and laid our lunch on the table. We first had lovely soup for a starter.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnO2xZzo07
And since Zoey mentioned earlier that it was a special lunch 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTcBACNYyId
specifically for me, we were all served my favourite dish as the main 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdeKRxGtBQa
meal, Italian chicken terazzini.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCtfBnahmD8
For a moment, I felt 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSotwOImkP
more at home than ever before. A feeling I hadn't felt in a long time. 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV4h29nG8JD
Zoey really knew how to make me feel more pleased with her in order for 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwt6QxEoip
me to forget that I was ever mad.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4grDigBzw
"Mmm, this is so 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCHGce4QWG
delicious," said Mike, a few minutes in during the meal. "Now I see why 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSAs3WZRMT7
you like this dish, Sam. It's so awesome."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYAmjduYhr
"I agree," said Seungri. "And the chefs here really know how to make a good meal."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXDixW1XrNM
"We wouldn't have had this if it wasn't for Zoey," I said, as I looked at her. "Thanks, by the way."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS0VVsDGv6E
"Anything for you, Sam,"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81jCk4Qy34
said Zoey with a huge grin on her face. "But to be honest, this whole 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlD3taQQO9b
lunch thing, wasn't really my idea."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ93MTVWwKd7
"Oh? Then whose was it then?" Daesung asked.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnIRetMFths
"Da, GD. Who else?" Zoey replied as she playfully nudged G-Dragon on his arm with her elbow.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv91rEeim6w
I had just taken in some1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLGbYEt2mS
food into my mouth and I almost choked on it, but I tried not to make 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvzNOE2OXC
it look obvious. I slowly put my spoon and fork on the plate as I slowly1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzF4YAhcPVi
tried to chew my food, but at the same time, processing what Zoey had 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ThdR74qLK
just said.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkqRPVIuYq
"This was all G-Dragon's idea?" I asked.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJt1CQa678
"Well, ya," Christine 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqOnFue8XB
replied. "You were so mad that you weren't talking to us, when we met 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBhVfquMp0S
G-Dragon at YG this morning, he suggested the idea of throwing you a 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74anGWTNWR
special lunch to lighten your mood."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpLAeNK0VTX
At that moment, I didn't know if all this lightened my mood or just darkened it even more.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOUS1tLdDq
"Thanks for the lunch, 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8Y0VlkmvQ
GD," I said with a smile, which felt rather painful on my face. "It's so1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNt1o9VU7O
sweet of you to have come up with this."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkAY0OFoH1
"You're welcome," said G-Dragon as he winked at me.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdHaFlUKih
I almost felt like 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaAefu8AUby
jumping at him from my seat to poke his eyes out with a fork, but I was 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3P6ZjuGczp
surprised with myself when I didn't move a muscle and continued to stare1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIkItDEhfeu
at him with a fake smile on my face. Where was all this anger coming 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2FArWYx8X
from? And why was it that with every minute that passed, my anger kept 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhwWhNC1gvy
turning into rage?1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7tDsVs8uLm
Oh, goodness. I needed 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMur0SRPzOk
help, that's for sure. I wasn't supposed to be mad at G-Dragon up to 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrgjDEJHXLK
this point. But why did I still feel angry and hurt? 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDigHRsVeuK
I tried to push aside 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzNebyjmc5x
the questions and my boiling anger as I stared at my food and continued 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDocQhVg79
to eat. When we were all done with our main meal, we were served 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLb6TNlsJsJ
dessert. Again, surprise, surprise, it was my favourite dessert, frozen 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rZ1Puu3H6
chocolate moussé.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy1bNCS9pnR
"Yum, yum, yum," I said,1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNjIxiYwTyK
with a bright smile on my face as the waiter laid down a dessert bowl 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0lJrnNNHj
filled with chocolate moussé in front of me.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV4hPA8IKwb
"This is the most excited I've seen you today, Sam," said Taeyang.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99gRR6MS74
"It's because chocolate moussé is her favourite dessert," said Daniel. "Give her that and she would be your best friend."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TiQSoMz5b
"I'll keep that in mind," said TOP.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJbBrVoLmv
I didn't wait for 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDkEJXMFsx
everyone else to get their own share of dessert. As soon as I got mine, I1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94IOEzis8t
got a dessert spoon and started to eat the cold dessert. Mmmm, I closed1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDS7xPQOZg
my eyes as I took it in my mouth and for once, I felt like I was in 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPOI3mBYz4
heaven.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGyb6O8opC
"This is so good," I said, with my eyes closed as I savoured the chocolate in my mouth.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjpxRDZ1kw8
"Be careful though," said G-Dragon. "You're not supposed to be eating cold stuff when you've a cold and a cough."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vScQ5KlW6
"I don't care," I said 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLK7McsgfHh
as I opened my eyes and smiled at G-Dragon. "I would end up with a bad 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6boUREQBr4
sore throat and I still wouldn't mind."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2RIIKzeBfG
G-Dragon smiled back at 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMjo5J2VKGB
me and I realised that I wasn't mad at him anymore. It looked like I 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hrrQgTcOW
really couldn't stay mad at him. And I was glad that all the hate faded 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDTcGmBtKz
away.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEoftqAF3J
After dessert, we all 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76hm9XB4W5
just sat there and started to chat. For once, it felt really good to be 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRMmlxN9Gd
on speaking terms with everyone again. We were soon talking about what 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡece2vjXMsY
happened yesterday. After going through all that and talking about it, 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6nqJ2DXaA
it all seemed rather funny and we all laughed about it. Although, the 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡURUSWaMdsO
part where G-Dragon had made me dive into the pool seemed to hurt a 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMoX58c5iw
little, I knew I would grow out of it someday.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGNr3GYZd4
"Hey, may I ask?" Seungri asked. "How did Lee manage to keep our managers at YG for so long?"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYFjmSnje8c
"Not sure, I'll make sure to ask her later on," I said.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Nh44lzZrq
"Yesterday, was just hilarious," said Zoey, wiping away a fake tear after laughing. "We should try that again some time."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLBjOsdqwNY
"But this time, not at the water park," I said.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAm1POb2qln
"Then where?" Daesung asked. "The water park was so much fun."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVp1FbiizG
"I suggest we try to figure that out later," I said. "We have stuff to do."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDjhbBKIvc
"What stuff?" TOP asked.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaROlQs6zpJ
"The song. Don't tell me you all forgot?"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkJhCdrnti
"Oh, the song!" Mike slapped his forehead. "I myself forgot about that."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQ04gvlOyh
"I thought both you and G-Dragon were going to work on it," said Christine.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBOsxi77hk
"Ya, but I have a better idea," I said.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡru8FOXPdV3
I felt Taeyang look at me and I turned to look at him.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvyXr7lCy55
"Are you really going through with that?" Taeyang asked, as he whispered.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxaeUIK0Z0
"I don't think that's a big deal, is it?" I whispered back. "I think it's a good idea."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQdnXzMmc2T
"Wait, what's going on?"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAf9Gv524rn
G-Dragon asked, as he noticed Taeyang and I whispering to each other. 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGE8Jf42Nsf
"And what idea have you come up with for the song?"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTVv4ax8xX
"I thought we should all1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0gtv3wJLy
work on the lyrics together. I feel it will be a lot better if we all 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡglK8oVMjAS
bring out our ideas and put them as lyrics."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGcHtjvgbIf
"But why do we have to put our heads together if there is you and G-Dragon who are better at song writing?" TOP asked.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGgnCaaEpH
"I don't know, I feel we1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡENMl2DiKjD
have to put our all in the song by coming up with lyrics from everyone.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnV6dfulH9i
It might sound a little strange, but we all have to help each other out1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1baJLGzxF
on this. If there is anyone objecting to it, you're free to do so."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQqnY2that
"I don't get it though,"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwJMWLyO0cq
said G-Dragon, as he leaned back on his chair and stared at me. "What 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJaHGM9YIyg
made you come up with this idea when we already agreed on who will write1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVMlWJLGHis
the lyrics?"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡehQ68Uoiqf
"I don't know, it kind of felt right, I think," I said.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFYWqE5YHfo
"You think?" G-Dragon now raised his eyebrow at me. "Is there something you aren't telling us?"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVzQWYFjGg
This time, I also raised1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqG3KPP5h8c
an eyebrow. I had told Taeyang about my idea earlier not because I was 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWXJrqZMHar
trying to avoid G-Dragon but for everyone else's benefit.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPwfalN3fw
"What makes you think I have other intentions?" I asked.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡutP8sosiyj
"Maybe you might still be mad at G-Dragon," Zoey blurted out.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6HG6R3FeH
I sighed. Great! These were the times you wished Zoey never had such a big mouth.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG4rrZSUIgL
"Is that true? Are you still mad at me?" G-Dragon asked.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeWAoexm4FI
"No, not any more," I answered. "At first I was, but now I'm over with what happened yesterday."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKyD8qDVGn7
"Or are you still mad that you don't want to work on the lyrics with me?"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSCnwqhZZh7
By the way G-Dragon 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZyJ4zUayjY
spoke, I could tell he was hurting. But it was pretty hard to try to 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ12yOwsbThB
convince him that yes, I was mad at first and I wanted to avoid him. And1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1I2f5jCEM2
no, since I'm no longer mad at him any more and that the idea of all of1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ27S81ffE5o
us working on the lyrics for the song seemed like a good idea.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡagrOXsro6N
"I just told you, I'm not mad anymore."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7PdNvxycBN
"Why is it that I don't believe you?"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1koSColBsP
"Maybe, it's because you're objecting to my idea and you just want to make up what would be a valid reason for it."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vH9a9n94F
"Mmm, looking at it through Sam's point of view, I see nothing wrong if all of us work on the song," said Daniel.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJOsG8k44R
"Then why come up with this in the first place?" Zoey asked. 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8RlGacvCQ
"I already told you, I just think it's a good idea," I repeated.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5LzSEt38L
"Well, I'm not up for it," said G-Dragon folding his arms. "I object."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzqtFZSREv
"Well, you should have said that instead of blaming me for coming up with this as an excuse."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4cLWZn8eu
"I think you are, and you're not telling us."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCailPGKyrK
"Are we going to go through this again? You just objected."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGzbYQ1tXn
"I could go through this over and over again if I had to until you tell us the truth."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrjdLumQBw2
"What truth?" I asked.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCEBzfBYpFM
"Okay, guys this is getting a little out of hand," said Taeyang. "Don't forget, we aren't the only ones here."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMzo1BdEl6
Taeyang was right. I was1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBSmHNYS4Jw
so caught up in the argument with G-Dragon, I forgot that we were in 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSTOVyVuLb
the hotel dining room. I looked around us and a few heads from other 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNSBrE5hOP
tables turned to ours. It seemed like our argument caught some people's 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalwazf78mL
attention.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaso3iZQlEP
"Tae's right," I said. "We shouldn't be arguing, much less here."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4baigzrKiJ
"Then let's conclude on this once and for all then," said Deasung. "Those who favour Sam's idea, raise your hand."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8cPOpkBS7z
Taeyang, Daesung, Daniel1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡklhP9GJzj1
and Mike, raised their hands. That meant Zoey, TOP, Seungri and 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxXCSbVWzr
Christine were on G-Dragon's side. What a bummer!1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCzJS4Ddf2s
"Whoops, looks like it's a tie," said Zoey playfully with a smirk.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxvGndTt8m
"It's not funny, Zoey," I said shaking my head.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡStqwmzMA2l
"Well, this just got serious," said Seungri, scratching his head.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJdN8uC3uJ
"It's a tie, so I suggest we..." I was then interrupted by G-Dragon.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh9IASr5CLM
"No, this time you aren't going to say or suggest anything," said G-Dragon.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSsI9n0GDw
"But I....." 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡICTewnTObO
"Sam, sshh," said Zoey, 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡclX1g9MxUB
pressing her index finger to her lips, telling me to keep quiet. "You've1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ziD1M8daZ
talked way too much, don't you think?"1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp40oXfMVoh
That felt like a slap in1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKx0PPZ1nEs
the face and I felt my face burn up in embarrassment. It looked like 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZu481XnSQ7
the tables had turned on me today. At first I was mad at G-Dragon and 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX69FvtNtz8
the other Toxins, but now, I was the one pissing everyone off. What 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡELcIWCSItF
happened to me being the leader? I know G-Dragon was older, but what 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5rWgexOSO
about what I thought was best for the whole group?1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrGa1YnUyP
"I suggest we think about it and when we meet tomorrow, we vote over it again," said G-Dragon.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzSmh3FAWp4
"That's fine with me," said Mike.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA2Cb0TZ0bU
Everyone else agreed, 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkqiw16xxKW
except me since I was told not to say a word. I personally also thought 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmCI6D1Wwa
it was a good idea to try and think things through. But what if it 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjlrgEvUosV
didn't work out tomorrow? What would we do then? I had a terrible 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxTnflhINi
feeling that things weren't going to go as planned and we needed a Plan 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡreOEzmu6QM
B, just in case.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEmgkRYpYSi
"Okay, then, we will meet tomorrow," said G-Dragon as he stood up to leave.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZ2xkGITYL
"But I've something to say," I blurted out.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6NgDZ8EM8m
"Not now, Sam. We will 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZNahjaTaD
meet tomorrow," said G-Dragon as he looked at me and walked away from 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqRkeRReBal
the table heading for the door. I had to admit, the way he looked at me 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgGoZl3IMg
gave me goosebumps.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvr74qEy7X
"Way to go, Sam," said Zoey, as she also stood up from the table. "You just made him upset. I need to go calm him down."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM7K5dvZoDf
Zoey went after G-Dragon and I sat back on my chair, feeling defeated and powerless. 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSYzIzZBwBd
One by one everyone 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtX4cqD9v6P
started to leave the table without even saying a word. It was awkward 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbX8fwnoKG
with the argument that had taken place, and saying something didn't seem1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMiAqWx4els
appropriate.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSRqfPewZn
I was soon left with Taeyang at the table and I looked at him, wondering why he hadn't left.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbTZh3orZCy
"Aren't you supposed to have left by now?" I asked.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07Mc4GnC7F
"And leave you all alone? No way," said Taeyang.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFDMWybE3Y
"Why do I feel like I've just become the villain?" I asked, my thoughts elsewhere.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvMo2jLBsmz
"You aren't a villain. You just feel bad that not everyone agreed to your idea."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8lXoTcKrak
"It's not that. I pissed1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB4s5HEjdxX
almost everyone off and that makes me feel bad. How I wish I could take1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDnuV0mcT9
everything I said back. Too bad I can't control time."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4xv3Hb28R
"You never knew that was going to happen. Let's just hope for the best that it would all seem like one bad dream."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOLrIHJMg2
"Thanks, Tae" I said, trying to put up a smile. "It means a lot that you're still here."1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtXzKDj9Vt
Taeyang placed his hand 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXs7wXaNM6B
on my shoulder, an assurance that he was there for me no matter what. He1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ScgIwrVzL
smiled back at me and I felt comforted.1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMmTsqM78pY
I knew I had to hope for1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV4emY3tUDf
the best just like Taeyang had suggested. But I couldn't ignore the gut1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDahXEpZIUV
feeling that things weren't going to run smooth and easy from now 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvpY7fIFwuh
on wards. Especially now that G-Dragon was angry at me. He seemed more 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvFCCdLlMCK
angrier at me than I was at him. I feared for the worst and I knew this 1015Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkcJ0PSY614
was just the beginning of a heavy storm ahead.
