My watch said 10:31 and I hissed in frustration. I was getting really impatient and I felt like I was about to blow a fuse.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7BgzFNgPzh
I had never been this 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2HxjesL3N1
late in my entire life. Not even when I had my own personal 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFsgPKXQBa
appointments. The others would be wondering why I was so late. And 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcYyCWlLoRJ
trying to explain the reason why, would have them blown away.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPmVUCFsMf
"Sam, are you still there?" Zoey called out to me from our room.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3nwvdgTm4r
I didn't want to answer. I was quite irritated. But if I didn't, she would start to freak out.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05ScreRZ5U
"Sam!"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡClFseFVjLs
I rolled my eyes. "I'm still here, Zoey," I answered.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBIafC90cM
Zoey came out of the 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSBXRak0wI
room and came to the lounge where I was seated waiting for her. I was on932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMc4y9O4dBH
the couch and I looked at her, then back at my watch.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEFXJqghaG
"Did you find what you're looking for?" I asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL37FxgQtXo
"No, I haven't," said Zoey.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSK22sPaoZ8
"You've been searching for it all morning," I said as I stood up. "Can we please just go to the studio? We're already late."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhSMF1jZ2MX
"No, let me go and check again," Zoey turned around to head back to the room and I groaned so loudly to grab her attention.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsByS2SCIzV
"Zoey, it's just a stud and you have plenty of those like it in your jewellery box."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdUuVqBAhQx
"But those are my favourite studs," said Zoey. "You know they are diamond, right?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVBClQqCep
"I know because I bought you those studs for your birthday a year ago."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzfBF8q2jAw
"Oh. Ya, I know." Zoey had a look on her face that told me she forgot about that.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaKs0EKcb6W
I ignored her and said, 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIeuKt04aEi
"just get another pair of studs or don't put on any at all. For my sake.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyosIImxECP
And Collins' too. We were supposed to be at the studio at 10."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2khjgvXu5p
"What time is it?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNSIDPZPVq
"10:35."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTaBy58E03E
"Wow, time really passes by."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48ZcGsMch9
"When it comes to you, it does. Come on, let's go."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcydnslyRlu
"Let me go get my phone."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DTbWdsqc4
Zoey rushed back to the 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNIZSmbohG0
room and I hoped she wasn't going to get back to looking for her missing932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLZfBCqnEU
stud. She sometimes did the opposite of what she had to do. But anyway,932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKs2BwWr3y0
that was Zoey.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEdFUAxPluE
I soon received a 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADVZljExUb
message from Collins threatening me to get to the studio as soon as 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNX6iOZLZIc
possible. In no less than five minutes. I moaned. He knew we couldn't 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GTDjGrieM
get there in five minutes. That's if we were superheros.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltzDzFuEAZ
"Zoey, come on, we better go!"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6NjCviXKY5
"I'm coming."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzhGdhmARqe
I started heading 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqqXPEZ3MV
towards the elevator and my phone beeped again. Another message. 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6cgmkYJbi
Hopefully it wasn't Collins again telling us he would hang us to death 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVwJDoNKkw
if we didn't make it in time. But I was surprised to see an unknown 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0eofm8BlYG
number. A number coming from another country.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYALp2GHBc
"Oh, who is this?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbth9QhNKg
Before I could open the message icon, Zoey came rushing from behind and bumped into my back. That almost made me drop my phone.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzVx0K0ScI
"My goodness, Zoey!" I said as I looked at her. "You should look where you're going. I almost dropped my phone."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1W0mu2j3q3
"Sorry," said Zoey as she also looked at me.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOF2B43Ig2r
"Come on, we're already late."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb7Py84in3N
We went into the 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡptq3ux1cNI
elevator and I put my phone away in my jeans jacket pocket. A black 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ541aFffrql
Chevrolet SUV was waiting for us outside. The others had already left 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdImmLfE0X8
for the studio and I had stayed behind because of Zoey's missing stud.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡukscTJu1d5
When we got to YG, 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJW103CSV1
Collins stood there by the entrance, obviously waiting for us. He looked932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVe1pIlBOw
like an angry father ready to scold at his kids for coming home late.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2gwV0ATJzr
"Don't tell me all this is your doing, Zoey," said Collins as we approached him.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFArvTO4pO
"No, no, it's not," said Zoey as she shook her head.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡteXF38Jk6f
"Says the person who isn't wearing her studs today."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8o7ClkXrPr
Zoey held her earlobes 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfMTFHzBzaL
and looked at me with a surprised look on her face. I shrugged. I had to932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJKrOHb2xD
tell Collins why we delayed over the phone. At least he believed me, 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmWY8RvH24
knowing that he already knew what was Zoey was like.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjhRPXKEeXa
"Come on, the others are waiting and they didn't want to start without you," said Collins.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKbCcRErOsi
"They had to wait," said Zoey, flipping her hair. "I'm singing the first verse alongside G-Dragon."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJvfRhjWqE
"Remind me whenever you're deciding who sings which part of a song to let me be there," said Collins as he turned to look at me.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfy5UZuaAhV
"I'll try." I smiled. Zoey stuck out her tongue at Collins.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOpKkcpKFB6
We got to the studio and we found everyone else waiting for us, lazing around on the couch.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcaoWHN8Cmp
"Hey, you're finally here," said Seungri.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbutW7093nY
"Sorry, we had an issue back at the hotel," said Zoey.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJb2HUwFOC0
"Ya. A 'serious' one." I said as I rolled my eyes.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZiTz9q5SC
"I can't wait to get started," said Daniel excitedly as he stood up from the couch.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlxK3woSZiw
"Then let's do so," said932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ldeF5hYyz
Collins as he joined the music producer by the console. "Zoey, Taeyang,932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZFpKmzI3AW
Christine, Sam and G-Dragon, we will start with you guys."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSkR6igFsA
I had completely forgot 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpMix9HEIC
that G-Dragon was even in the room. I hadn't noticed him at all when he 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpF6x45LOQo
stood up from the couch and came towards Zoey and I.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡchezbF4IxO
"Hi, Zoey," G-Dragon greeted Zoey.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAW3J2Mx54I
"Hi," said Zoey with a wide smile on her face.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqENdSYE0pA
"Ahem," Christine came from behind as she cleared her throat. "Let's go. You two can talk later."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUf4xPOVrFp
I rolled my eyes and together with Taeyang and Christine, we went into the live room together, followed by the two love birds.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ed0f6VVRa
In the live room, there 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5pnPeQjOf
stood five microphones and with each mic had a pair of headphones around932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡveEbNkS3nA
it. We each stood in front of a microphone and put on the headphones.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ86gNI3XuX4
Ahead of us was a window where we could see the others from the other side.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2brVL18SrA
"Are you guys ready?" Collins asked as his voice was heard through the speaker in the live room.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnNaUKuBtx
I looked at the others 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMNAWvIby6G
to see if they were settled and gave Collins a thumbs up and the music 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmIXn85O5DV
producer started to play the tune for the song.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD5Ogp6W1HD
G-Dragon started to sing932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMEJetzfoJ
and then afterwards, Zoey followed. Their voices blended so well with 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqIKgxqJrx0
the music, they made a perfect harmony. Looked like I did a good thing 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqYzqDaBOxH
to let them sing the first verse together.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJnfnhX8m5f
Collins, the music 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1VQp9wrakf
producer and the others outside the live room had smiles on their faces.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn3MtSrRzX7
They were loving it alright. Collins gave them a thumbs up.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrP8XYiT5oz
Christine then sang the 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEe3ebHzEH
bridge and as she came came closer to the chorus, I joined in. Then 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgJ4GnaLas
Taeyang and I sang the chorus together.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaZc3GyfvWV
When we were done, the music producer stopped playing the track.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzKXzURs9N
"That was awesome, guys," said Collins as his voice came out through the speaker. "The song is so incredible."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1kwir4YIo
"Ya, thank Sam," said Taeyang. "She is the one who came out with all of this."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPpkBveXGj9
I smiled at Taeyang who stood beside me and I nudged him on the shoulder. "Stop it, Tae," I said. "Don't make me blush."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMRNorknTl
"Okay, Sam and Taeyang, I932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtqY5HhWxRZ
want you two to go through the chorus again, this time with a little 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8U8EjZ4rSh
more high tempo and see how it sounds," said the music producer.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKTPrC84vS
"Okay," Taeyang and I said at the same time.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQAfHAjjlr
"Shall GD and I leave then?" Zoey asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyI4WCxfGij
"You may," said Collins,932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3ogyvpzMJ
looking a little irritated on his face. "But don't leave the studio. 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TJQOlYqJ2
You have to work on the backup vocals."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxeuj61vAHr
"Alright, we will be here," said Zoey, with a grin on her face.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUGOZlMPgQ
If I hadn't known 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDqoS3rm5U
better, something told me Zoey and G-Dragon were up to something. They 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdpRvvjt5sQ
looked like little mischievous children as they smiled at each other and932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8rZI0Zdvz3
they walked out of the live room. I couldn't help but feel a little 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDUhbEZ82l
hollow inside.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ZjLuQJijK
"So, we will start from Christine's part," said the music producer.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3uAPdnheO
We continued recording 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxT9KLnUlu
the song and later on, TOP, Mike, Daesung, Seungri and Daniel also came 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXUOQfuwH1
into the live room. It took us a while to record the whole song, trying 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnvpCVp3dHf
to make our vocals blend in with the song but we were done.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2FenbOHWuV
"Great job guys," said Collins. "Let's break up for lunch and then we can come back and work on the backup vocals."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ioMU3mmbw
"Alright," said Mike as he took out his headphones. "I'm pretty hungry now."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySsLZMicA6
"The song is amazing," said Christine. "And it's catchy that you can sing it the whole day."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg06FlAbc5E
"Ya," said TOP. "Why don't we all go somewhere special for lunch?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFxcvPAPuE
"Like where?" I asked as I put the headphones on the mic.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQsko3JZW6q
"Some restaurant I think we will like," said TOP as he looked at me with a killer smile.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9XSpWyEb5Y
"That sounds great." I turned to the window to look at Collins who obviously heard everything. "Can we go, Collins?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqRijKDxuWj
"Ya, you can go," said Collins waving his hand irritatingly in the air.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SWoCRE15J
"Yes!" Daniel punched the air with his fist.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuY4Cj4i8Ol
"But be back within an hour."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFMRcbWuD2
I raised an eyebrow at Collins who then rolled his eyes at me and groaned.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ20plf91yoW
"Fine, an hour and a half."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTIJma3cCHb
I did a little victory dance in my heart and I smiled in triumph. Collins and the music producer soon left the studio room.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIr0MwY5LP
"How did you do that?" Daesung asked as we all walked out of the live room.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCL1jSvpK2J
"Do what?" I asked with a smile on my face as Daesung was right behind me.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnK5iLOn5rW
"How did you convince Collins to give us an hour and thirty minutes?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuaDVhCVwni
"That, my friend," said 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3zRorXOmd
Mike behind me, "is the way my sister does her thing. Just by a look in 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnqS15NDf4k
her eyes and you will have to do whatever she wants."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCEmnlucup
"That's not true," I said as I turned around to look at Mike who had his hand on Daesung's shoulder.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKYq2hgqNtl
"Really? I beg to differ," said TOP as he winked at me.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxWL28zJB8F
"No one does what I want them to do just by looking at them in the eye," I said, looking away from TOP, blushing.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbfvqrxVgE
"Well, it does work, most of the time," said Christine nodding her head.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0lGu3pU9r
"Oh, ya? Like when?" I folded my arms.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIBq29uDvka
"Whenever you want us to932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh37VT9wvft
tell you the truth about something and we refuse, you always give us 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLK84eVyjiJ
this eye that makes us give in," said Daniel.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJOfO0WJmnL
"For real?" I raised an eyebrow.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRyEUByaXyV
"Ya, your eyes burn and we just can't take it," said Christine.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz53G4KJLUW
"Huh," I thought of all 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfr6nqC3JRV
the times when either of my brothers or the girls ever did whatever I 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtCqpn1Dy8h
wanted them to do just by me giving them the eye.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXfjVlDCDy
"But that doesn't explain with Collins though," said Taeyang.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnh96DFZPL3
"Thank you, Tae," I said feeling relieved.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhY5oOSWK3
"Come on, Sam," said 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9uEhe5nMn
Daniel. "You might not know it, but Collins listens to you because you 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbmLXMjTXD
also give him the eye. And also probably because you're his favourite."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQb7OG6zbom
"That makes no sense." I shook my head.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14GgAMkQvr
"I believe him," said Seungri. "Looks like you have a way of getting to Collins to make him agree with you."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXg5AYIukf
"But he doesn't agree to me all the time," I slowly shook my head.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUb9qEJxWrT
"On some ocassions like this one, he does," said Christine with a smile.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZiZRryWLx
"Can we please just go for lunch?" I asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtOUT7ZlnGu
Seungri came over to open the door for me, but just as I was about to step out of the room, I stopped.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXfeG1NpgQ
"Guys?" I turned around to look at the others. "Where are Zoey and GD?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFd6UoiaFe5
We all turned towards the couch and noticed that there was no one there. I went back in the room and looked around.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvV4qXdufRN
"They aren't here," I said.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHlSzwn6Phq
"These guys don't stop surprising us with their disappearing acts," said Daesung.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGYwkgLjsOW
"I'm surprised Collins didn't notice," said Seungri.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLEM3Ei1xYw
"Hopefully, they will be back before we start on the backup vocals," I said.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhA21DyLA8
"Then let's go then," said TOP. "Wherever those two are, they are fine."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2YrK2g9hlO
I nodded my head and we 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpNPFVF5xP
all left the room. As we headed down to the ground floor, I reminded 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4yEPlFR8KD
myself to leave a text message for Zoey.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGu3fJsQQg4
We were in the lobby and932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCT7iB4ErE
I stopped to remove my phone. I went over to messages and realised that932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRRrcWEG1F
I had one unread message. It was the message I had received this 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwJGdGBy4Qo
morning.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqPaSENMnc
I first sent Zoey a text932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQgUNpUM3s
message then I decided to read the unknown message from this unknown 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcW2689UjmW
person. Then TOP appeared right in front of me.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPA3BndEmo
"Hey, what are you looking at?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFoGLaG1IN
I was startled by his sudden appearance that my thumb pressed the exit button and I had gone out of my messages.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE8xIBL9lKx
"I was just sending Zoey a message," I said.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgUUcawdYYu
"Okay, shall we go?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyktH77q1nH
"Ya, sure." I put the phone back in my pocket and I wrapped my arm around his elbow and we walked out of the building.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfGKQntMrPE
"Oh, you guys look like you're going out," said Christine with a smile.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3BvIGQkoq
"We're all going out for lunch aren't we?" I asked with a smirk.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhBkKpUUWX
"Ya, we are," said Daesung, looking the other way and scratching the back of his head.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7txJXZVJU0
"We better go or else our one and half hours will elapse in no time," said Daniel.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzuIlF4II49
Instead of using any one932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfbcWPOMhZu
of the BigBang members personal cars, we used the two black SUVs. We 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4a352xP3s
were driven to a fancy restaurant and as usual, we grabbed a lot of 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHTs6f4LjX
attention, especially from the customers.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3dn0BeoFy
I had to admit, the 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVBr1VdHedF
restaurant was nice and classy, suitable for the famous and the rich. As932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡclnYmyh6XT
I walked into the restaurant with the others, a fancy glass chandelier 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUALR9q6P94
caught my eye. The polished wooden floor shone almost like glass under 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksnhVj9fh9
the lights the chandelier reflected all over the room.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQPh7R0djwr
A smartly dressed 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsV9rJ3G3g
waiter, who by the way, was super cute, came over. He gave us a friendly932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDlOEBJkAJ
smile and I felt Christine nudge me by the shoulder and when I turned 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD8oPFdTOde
to her, she was smiling. Looked like she also noticed the waiter's good 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXczL3fYew1
looks too. Damn! Why were Korean men so good looking?932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvu0Mvw6Ye2
We were escorted to a 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4yzd2IMX3l
round table big enough to cater a whole lot of people. Even ten. But 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRyx0CCGwJ1
sadly, Zoey and G-Dragon weren't here.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjSWz5aWTG3
TOP pulled a chair for 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEznK2p5iQe
me and I sat down, thanking him as he took his seat beside me. Seungri 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxPf12PowVT
pulled a chair for Christine who sat on my other side and Seungri sat 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmnMA7z75Mf
beside her.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWu3GnDcCuD
"This place is so lovely," I said as I looked around.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKSVYm2HljR
"Tell me about it," said Christine.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2d8mO7yorz
"I knew you would like it," said TOP.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWuPJDgfrfH
"Ya, it's exquisite, but I'm only here for the food," said Mike who sat opposite me.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfXQ8jYX7ix
"So, let's order," said Daesung.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpLXOUAb43h
I took the fancy looking menu with the colour of velvet and the letters written in gold. Classy.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmKLPb4vc12
After our delicious meals had been served, we ate. I enjoyed it as I savoured every little food in my mouth.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo8IpjeNmEg
As we were having our 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFf2dgiMmn
dessert, we were chatting and there was a lot of laughter all around our932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIHfAuyYsuw
table. It was fun to be like this, all together as good friends and 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhp7e46U20L
laughing about. I kind of wished Zoey and GD were here. I bet they were 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdMPWWwXzF
having fun wherever they were.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL6iCWthHwA
While I was having my 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdJN4Tq9MR
strawberry cake, I felt the vibration of my phone in my pocket. Must be a932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0G8euuPxFM
message. I took out my phone and I was shocked to see that the same 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXdS5XLku7s
unknown number had sent me a message again.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3S23gHFcjR
I tapped on the message 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡChJTlOQ5Gg
icon and the first message the unknown number had sent to me was a 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2OdEJlYpwg
photo. I had to download it first before I could even see it. And then 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡceycMbFQtK
the next message was more surprising.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmDxxrFDum
"Aren't you going to do anything about this?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwgulq701X5
Anything about what was 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡysIBSXwTv0
the question. Had this had to do with the photo? Must be or else the 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ505p8dLB2m
unknown person wouldn't have texted me this message.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkt0Cpmym6f
I decided to turn my data on and download the photo. Just as I was about to, my phone went off.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnpIHEbx92
"Dang it!" I muttered to myself.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy4uPivFhba
"Hey, what's wrong?" TOP asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PuMcay98h
"Nothing, my phone went dead. I hadn't charged it last night."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNR2fkryfsk
"Was there something important you wanted to do?" Taeyang asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIeSUjwHigo
"Not really, it's not important." I shook my head but my thoughts still lingered on the unknown photo.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzxZgxXx97
"Did Zoey text you back?" Christine asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡed4dJbXjPU
"No, why?" I asked as I picked up a piece of strawberry cake with my fork.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4gUpIFIzVL
"Well, your phone vibrated so I thought you had received a message from her."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcF2vWmrQbV
"It was nothing. Wherever Zoey is, she is having a lot of fun."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXHNhwcQpvO
"Hey, what's up with GD and Zoey anyway?" Taeyang asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeRsVa9K1QJ
"Isn't it freaking obvious?" said Daesung. "Those two seem like a couple now."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMrVSSDJtr
I almost choked on my cake but instead, I cleared my throat. Christine rolled her eyes.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQ5VfxRPaH
"Well, that wasn't going to go on unnoticed forever," she said.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPvTdBuWw8
"Wait, for real?" Taeyang asked, with a look of surprise.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcPkdKD2Lhz
"And you already knew, didn't you?" Mike asked looking at Christine.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrqGYEiV6Q
"Oh, please," said Christine rolling her eyes. "Don't tell me you haven't noticed how close those two are nowadays."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTitWtGm7Zg
"They have always been close," said Seungri. "But this time, they are just way too close."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcUzoLeXDoa
"For them to disappear like that together, it counts for something, right?" TOP suggested.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBhdFuslibc
"Can we please stop 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7HS6ViPmQ
talking about it?" I asked. "There are people around and if they hear 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdAflg8sDZ
all this, some of us would be hanged when this spreads like wild fire."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0pPXhxCqp8
"Why do you say that?" Daesung asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLvEjmNh5U
"Oh, oooh, oh," said Daniel waving his hand from across the table. "May I say it?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Lwg81RMZm
"No, let me," said 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEAm8wgxFqe
Christine, as she put her hand on mine and looking at me convincingly to932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwb4fcZRI8
allow her to say what she wanted to say.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6NFa6aJ24Q
I shook my head at Christine and she leaned back on her seat with a groan. Daniel smiled when I nodded my head to let him go on.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7LGqwbnyp
"Because, Collins gave 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWXrPyn1Zqt
these girls a golden rule when we were coming here," said Daniel. "And 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Fc16s7R0U
that is, none of them should date any one of you BigBang members. 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡitVgH6JzAr
Never."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxVcTZUprRQ
There was silence on the932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEAYyb1MZJ0
table and I couldn't help but feel a little downcast. Christine 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBXe9TmEcan
continued to eat her dessert like nothing serious had been said. I 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3daC7SnQAx
looked over at my brothers who seem to be enjoying our humiliation.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjPsEQvOSH
"Is that true?" Seungri asked, looking over at me.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5XSZVpDFG
"Ya, it's true," I said as I slowly chewed the cake in my mouth.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXVsqMnapl
"Oh." Daesung looked a little disappointed as he stared down at his plate.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GEp5oQVfV
"Who cares? It's not like it's that serious," said TOP as he shrugged.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9iqubmaYf
"It's serious to 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrELzOoxnvL
Collins," I said as I turned to look at TOP. "We're only here to 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5TPtmT7bJ
collaborate with you and that's all. Not date, get married and have 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwfWhp6uO4g
babies."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHwt7f7WsqE
That was odd coming out 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlKnW42ryE6
of my own mouth and the others knew it too. Everyone's eyes were on me, 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHOBGbw27sK
with looks on their faces that I couldn't describe. This was 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWCkgaYB2A
embarrassing. My hands were now curled into fists as they rested on my 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxsFOI1VobX
laps.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJthww6L5y
"Sorry, that came out wrong," I said.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnFyeXedlBX
"Well, you did catch us by surprise by saying that," said Taeyang.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48img2aid1
I really did. Something 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvtjWNgzBm
had gone totally wrong with me and I could feel it. My thoughts were 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0doQERMUAc
spinning in my head and I felt like I had no control over how I felt.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR5YaxyPYbv
"Excuse me, I'll need to use the rest room," I said as I drew back my chair, stood up and headed straight for the ladies' room.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Pm8GFQhTH
I quickly closed the 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nQasnhvkN
door immediately I stepped in the ladies' room, leaning my back against 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhDngaGAPUi
the door. My hands flew to my hair and I took a deep breath. I walked 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35lMuONo54
over to the sink and stared at myself in the mirror.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo47fxcxOau
"What's wrong with you today?" I asked my reflection.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrtJZkRdtiY
I shook my head and I 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4aoT5oCqc
knew I wasn't alright. Something was definitely wrong. Was it the fact 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy009sIugDq
that Zoey and G-Dragon were together? As far as I know, I wasn't really 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQgq0XU9fx1
supposed to care. But I did.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvMw3UkHhO
I looked at myself and I932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHSz8rNwZbR
could see the sadness in my eyes. Were they for G-Dragon? I shook my 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRXJauFf9wU
head at the thought. No. They weren't. He and I were still at war with 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH1xANqSmvj
each other and that made no sense. I had to stop thinking about these 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Oz66BwE6E
things and focus on what's really important.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6XM6qEiwm5
I quickly took a deep breath to try and pull myself together. I rinsed my hands, left the room and went back to our table.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2Cwg6lqXl
"Are you okay, Sam?" Mike asked as I sat back down.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbI6MVUfLT1
"Ya, I am. I just feel horrible that I said that."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5cs4AnfTp
"We think we know why you did," said Christine.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8luW2DxRHG
I gulped. What had these932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlxDGxm4Q0J
guys thought of now? If it was what I thought it was, I would rather 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMDb5a1gWC
not hear it. There was a moment of silence at the table.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjSVP8kMV4O
"Zoey has you so worked up that you're irritated," said TOP.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqzLGHQSiq1
That was not what I was expecting. I was wide eyed and in my heart, feeling a little relieved.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNF225i1Nsu
"Ya, I remember when we were coming here in the plane and Collins told you to watch over Christine and Zoey," said Mike.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLsaTlqqjO7
"And I have been a good girl on my part," said Christine making an invisible drawing of a halo above her head with her finger.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99kzJ793aH
While Christine was one 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOHiBGNy9J
who at least had her hormones in check, Zoey and I were pretty much 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6cpLaiWhHi
guilty. I couldn't tell who was worse between either of us. I bet I was 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJc29DRWlT2
worse.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡApTTXEvVOK
"Well, I guess I'm also guilty myself like Zoey," I said, admitting to everyone.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpAPDCO942n
"If you mean TOP flirting around with you, then trust me, you're not," said Daniel.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxpmsyFCRli
"Hey!" TOP looked a little annoyed but rather amused. He ended up laughing.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrTXRhQ0jmL
"And me calling you my panda," said Seungri, with a smirk.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEh2frS5qWb
"You see, Sam, people just like you," said Mike. "And these guys shouldn't dare make a move of kissing you."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9S3t4B3hjQ
I blushed. "Mike!"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡElQJwaE33G
"Don't worry, he is just being protective over his sister," said Daesung, laughing.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxEZom5ypaN
"I've tried kissing 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3fKIMAtZE2
her," TOP challenged as he looked over at my brothers. He raised an 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlVYkJs4Kk
eyebrow. "What are you going to do about that?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHgDITwvpLt
"Uhh, if I were you, I 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa8Vrj22Msz
wouldn't challenge them, TOP," I said as put my hand on his shoulder, 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡggchZq30xp
looking over at my brothers who looked set on tearing TOP apart. And I 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGcCv4xzqY
caught a glimpse of Daesung rolling his eyes at TOP. "You would end up 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUqzewuQDCe
regretting it."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJUVkjN4xs
"True," said Christine, nodding her head at TOP. "These boys are like monsters you can't beat. Only Sam can handle them."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacQjB8e5z3
I looked over at Christine with a look that said 'that's not true.' Christine shrugged.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCM88vvPNUB
"Fine, I'll listen to 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2poQjzEv4
you ladies," said TOP as he looked at Christine and I. "Most especially 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wO4T6iAKs
because Sam says so." He gave me that killer bad boy smile of his and I 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zSZjZiRht
blushed.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQ0S5H7FV4
"Well, we better go," said Taeyang.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcncYS8MYWv
He was right. We only had a few minutes to get to YG. And Collins was one person who's strict when it comes to time.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡthVsSUz2rG
After TOP paid the bill, we left the restaurant with the paparazzi taking pictures as we walked out.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1PxdlRG9R
We got to YG just in 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXNLwlabNWY
time. I just hoped that Zoey and G-Dragon were back here. I didn't want 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX2jQZVBu9Q
Collins on my throat and giving him the eye, wasn't going to help.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmwTGtlyJCP
When we got to the studio, we found G-Dragon.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL14mC6aEuR
"Hey, where did you two disappear to?" Christine asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJgxUTdcW1
"We just went out," said G-Dragon as he looked around the room.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwccLzfLiwK
I couldn't help but feel932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0EEtrhykh1
that something was wrong, just by the look on his face. "What's wrong?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ34Ca74mly
I asked him with my eyebrow raised.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQJvGIf7tB
"Huh?" He appeared to be absent minded. Was he looking for something?932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMEFEMNQ6v
"I was asking what's wrong with you? And where is Zoey?" I asked as I also looked around.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvh35e0zZa3
"That's the thing," said G-Dragon. "I can't find her."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMNcYkOht4j
I felt something inside 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19qdKgJg5F
me break and my eyes bulged out of their sockets ready to fall out. I 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgbUI0x8VH1
couldn't believe what I was hearing.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1EZN3IOhhU
"Are you for real?" Taeyang asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAx6EPJUoXH
"I'm serious," said G-Dragon.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3NByGkOU5r
"Wait, do you mean you 'lost' her?" Mike asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kMwKWPudv
"I didn't lose her, I just can't find her."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5l0V0IPb9L
"That sounds more like losing her to me," said Daniel.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV3slRmdCV3
"You guys aren't helping!" G-Dragon exclaimed throwing his hands in the air in frustration.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyFz1gZELX4
"Where were you guys first of all?" Seungri asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeOueUc5uTk
"We first went to have lunch then the two of us went to the park."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡowo5OlmkRj
"Then?" TOP asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7AvDO3VsaQ
"I don't know, I went over to get some ice cream for the both of us, and the next thing I know she was gone."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEGzW1okL0x
"Are you sure?" Daesung asked. "Did you look everywhere for her?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6OfWbn6lx
"I did. I even asked people around and they hadn't seen her. I thought she would be back here."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCT1t1IzpUR
"That would be unusual, given that Zoey doesn't really know the city so well," said Taeyang.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjBq0UaBk4
"But where could she be?" Christine asked looking as worried as I was.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMGpONVuNe
"Try calling her," said Seungri, turning to Christine.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ02MHMWtuCI
"I just hope she is okay," I said as I rubbed my neck.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTkg7i1jR8P
"What are we going to do with Collins?" Mike asked looking at me.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsNuJCBhgkJ
"I don't know," I said. "Hey, do me a favour and try to call the hotel and see if Zoey is there."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKhNsAOqnz
"Sure thing," said Mike as he pulled out his phone.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTThwFdVSWY
"Her phone is off," said Christine her phone in her hand.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2CF3WhD2ry
"Oh, no, this isn't good," said TOP.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYd2VmyhY64
"Again, Zoey is putting us into more problems."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCuCAwrkT8m
I couldn't help but 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgzysUrzoE
wonder why she went off like that. Something wasn't right. Was G-Dragon 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4wWGfQ9aPr
not telling us what was really going on?932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Nms4ZC4gS
"No one has seen Zoey go into the hotel," Mike announced.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡESLpFcjHRU
"We're goners," said Seungri as he dropped himself on the couch.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrvgwVj7vY
"We've to look for her," said TOP.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqXUseCjBh
"But where can we start looking?" Daniel asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrmsyRwsuho
"I don't know, but we have to go and find her," I said.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNHsd0pRzDC
"And we have to do something with Collins," said Taeyang.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4lad3SAVJh
"Did someone say my name?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5shMerkmc
I cringed. He was one 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCMhJ1aUSj
person I wasn't ready to face right now. Everyone else wasn't ready to 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJdOns06hgA
either. We slowly turned to look behind us and Collins stood there with 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTaU4C91krT
the music producer.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4cNMHuPNNt
"Why are you all looking worried like someone has gone missing?" Collins asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltNyoYSgoM
I sighed. If only he knew. But if he does find out, he wasn't going to forgive us that easily.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡexMCdB4Jiq
Collins looked on at us, waiting to answer him. What to do now! We were going to be in such big trouble.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgIr0DCCTP
"Looks like you aren't 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSe3tbzTCJa
going to answer me, so let's get back to work," said Collins turning 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX94QDMHp91
away from us and heading towards the console.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLudNM9OBqx
"We will work on the backup vocals," said Collins. "Zoey, Sam and Christine, you're up."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoXYxuiHfrM
I looked at the others 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8fwqQd69q
who hadn't said a word. We all looked at each other. Someone had to do 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUTCj3oXo9
something or else we would be toast.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qBlaOB2Cz
"Are we going to start?" Collins asked looking behind him as he turned on his chair. "Where is Zoey?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW4QE1lnVYu
It was about time he noticed. It looks like we ourselves weren't ready to tell him that Zoey is missing.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0LdnJ7miC
"What's wrong with you, guys? Why aren't you saying anything?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSwHu3GezHO
"Zoey isn't here," said Mike.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNvcnw3IcP
"Ya, I can see that. Where is she?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHEBvtgftMt
"She wasn't feeling too well," I said. "So she went back to the hotel."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlL90XspNLH
"What? Did she eat something bad for lunch?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSEP72NPGsF
"Ya. She did," said G-Dragon.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvywxbfcRWz
"So, do you think we should continue or do this tomorrow when Zoey is around?" I asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEcxuH7RpGM
"We should just do this tomorrow," the music producer suggested, turning to Collins.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksqhoaJtKG
Please say yes. I was praying in my heart that Collins would agree. This time I wasn't relying on my eye to do anything.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWc4AFy9Zjn
"Fine," said Collins. "We really need Zoey, so we should just do it tomorrow."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJqywULXq6
Mike and Daniel almost 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUpcJ5MFHGL
jumped with relief but they managed to control themselves. Christine 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDgk4LvFZvc
turned around so that Collins and the music producer wouldn't notice her932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD8LUdnd8lv
sighing in relief. The rest of us just stood there, pocker faced.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVC86ATP9Gp
"That's fine," said Taeyang.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvNW5syW7O
"I really wanted us to be done with this today," said Collins.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMqUcuvmKKo
"Looks like it wasn't meant to be," said TOP.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMtFO2lZlD
Ya. It wasn't meant to be. Looks like we were lucky. That meant we could look around for Zoey.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp6YyfWVtqN
"You guys can go back to the hotel and make sure Zoey is okay," said Collins.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxIPU2fzOwm
"I'll go," said Christine. "The others can stay here if they want to."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVdw8f2B1t
Christine was doing the 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEoZFPoJQ6q
right thing. If she went to the hotel, Collins wouldn't be so suspicious932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡciKo9j6CIf
of what's going on and just in case he decides to go back there at 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwh9lqQLPpS
anytime, Christine might cover up for Zoey.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLHnxdsfH4
"Okay and what will the rest of you all be doing?" Collins asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOjZGxs5mrP
"Chilling," G-Dragon and I replied at the same time. We both looked at each other afterwards.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGzlIzWeiXF
"Fine, I have some other things to attend to. I might just go and check up on Lee and Yang Hyun-suk."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMbji67tuVh
I wanted to ask where, 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqKmbYS3jB
but I knew it was none of my business. I realised that I hadn't seen Lee932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegBkfYXTEa
the whole day. Must be she was busy with Yang Hyun-suk. Collins and the932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9OI3s8ccb
music producer soon left.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRREnZT43ph
I walked over to the door and checked if Collins and the music producer were in the hall. But they were gone.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsUr6ghRNvb
"Looks like we have to split up and look for Zoey," said Taeyang.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKlRjOL1J4s
"Ya, we should," I 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGkmGxDPx6n
nodded my head. "G-Dragon and I will take Christine to the hotel just in932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2L69iOdPo
case Zoey shows up and if Collins decides to go there."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVY5CGCVAJ
"I'll go with Taeyang," said Daniel.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvwN40PnsF
"And I go with Seungri," said Mike.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNTo68xLXNT
"That leaves Daesung and I," said TOP.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBShuGmo7C
"Great, let's go," I said and we all walked out of the room.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM1CoYdMb8x
As soon as we left the 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1KGdzpjSVy
YG building, we split up in the parking lot. Luckily, Collins had 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJd8IlbfsSz
already left. Christine and I went with G-Dragon in his car. It was 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1G0SQn0oOR
important that I had to talk to G-Dragon concerning Zoey.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9OhQKw4km
We soon arrived at the hotel and Christine got out of the car. I gave her my phone for it to be charged.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrr4tkgC4A6
"Call us if anything good happens," I said I looked at Christine through the window.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeu6WujQdrL
"And what if something bad happens?" Christine asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYvRDbMCDf
"Like Collins? You can handle it," I said as I gave her a smile. Christine winked and wished us luck.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI8rm7amnQH
G-Dragon drove away and 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjoAkdEEAk
we first went to the park where he came with Zoey after lunch. I just 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlAXk6sraw
hope she didn't go that far and that she was okay.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQIo3Awfl2
"Did you two have some sort of argument?" I asked when we both got out of the car and I went round it to face him.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPMMLLE3AJd
"What?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFcdYLePN3x
"Did you two argue?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8IkGmMEn5
"No, we didn't," said G-Dragon as he went around me and started walking towards the park.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62dwGBc81z
I quickly turned and followed him. When I caught up with him, I stood in front of him to stop him.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVItts4ReL
"Are you telling me the truth?" I asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCzAPWNZOr
"Do you think I am lying?" G-Dragon asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQ9KoeW4Zl
"I think so." I said with my arms folded.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡblxLmzSlfC
"You're crazy," said G-Dragon as he walked around me again.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3FhjYrdEum
I huffed. He wasn't going to budge. I had to try something to get the truth out of him.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEbiU8GN7RP
With quick strides, I 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU6mGH1pZbb
caught up with him again. This time I started to walk backwards so that I932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXnsJKOmGH5
could look at him directly in his face.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7XpRGoJSw
"What are you doing?" G-Dragon asked as he looked at me, puzzled.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5mpIU8PYT9
"I want you to tell me the truth."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ64p95vhA1G
"You're stressing yourself out by walking backwards."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ6p5Xx0VLD
"Do I care?" I raised an eyebrow at him. "I know you're hiding something from me."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznNFb2BA5Z
G-Dragon chuckled and 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkmh6BiS5SI
that almost made me smile. "Stop playing detective, my little kitty. As 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjXTEO4aVZU
much as it suits you, you're going to trip over and fall."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYtkdNBSeZW
"Then you have to stop me from walking backwards by answering my question."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTX43Lmhrh4
"This is one silly method of interrogation if you ask me."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCblhgBztAp
"I can tell you're not telling me something. Zoey can't just leave like that without someone upsetting her."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoCoZ7r7gPZ
"And how do you know?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDTz0YHqEdj
"I'm her best friend. 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMe9THuBnYj
And plus, whenever someone gets her really upset, she runs off without 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8noI79TFA
telling anyone. She always wants be alone to think."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJFYBHMjeYv
"I hope she doesn't think of committing suicide."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShf1vGr1Ff
"Zoey can't end her 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4N6GLhi0lu
life. Well, she hasn't tried to anyway. She's leaving the dream right 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1AZ396yCdP
now and ending her life this early, isn't going to sound right. Unless 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeX5ZkddPmD
you did something."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MA0nc1t0R
"Me?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUeIwYYJjaR
"Da! Yes, you!"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzFGA4BVKe
"What could I possibly have done for Zoey to try and commit suicide?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuN7gzCY35B
"Don't talk about suicide like that." I hit him on the arm.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctW8ktV1Zl
"Ouch!" G-Dragon stopped and held his arm. "That hurts!"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUGYrVAuo2
"Well, you deserve it. Now tell me the truth." I put my hands on my hips.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9siSyuU0vl
"I'm telling you, Zoey and I didn't argue."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQN4iRcvYvt
G-Dragon looked me in the eye and he seemed really convincing.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡskWFLlc4QG
"Okay. I believe you," I said. "But you must have said something that upset her."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76mz4a3yAV
"I can't really remember what I had said to her. Maybe she just left on her own."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZzhUl10S7r
"And with her phone off, that's a bit strange, don't you think?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1inbdkQZG
"When we find her we will ask why she ran off."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡccAa7hgzzB
"Ya. Sure."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEDl2zGWQV
"Now, will you please 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXwg8uqmxeD
stop walking backwards? I don't want you to trip and save you from 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlxbHhAO6NO
falling. That will spark rumours again like it did during the 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwJsYyp3gMG
interview."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGIGcHyNuma
I didn't say anything, 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjX1FJf4rP
so I just nodded my head and faced forward. We went further into the 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTgWApXzo6Y
park and as we looked around for Zoey, we sparked some attention from 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwc9s0RQru1
our darling fans. We signed a few autographs and took a few pictures and932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtlLPQRklkP
went on with our search. We even asked some fans if they had seen Zoey,932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxbzR09NiDd
but nothing.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGTQRwX0vP
We were already half way into the park and still no sign of Zoey. We were by the lake and I sat down on the grass by the banks.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRlwTghQZ0U
"Are you tired already?" G-Dragon asked as he looked down on me.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jOcdvqgVp
"I'm not," I said as I 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgb69tc7jBz
removed my slippers and felt comfortable with my bare feet on the grass.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlyYmi6l5uI
"I'm trying to figure out where Zoey could be."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhmY7EyqV2X
G-Dragon sat down beside932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIOwIYyi5Lr
me and the two of us were silent, looking at the pond. Laughter filled 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnGjn4EF1UP
my ears as I saw a group of kids playing from across the pond. Some 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡonGqmtHvDt
couples also sat on the grass close to the pond. It was such a beautiful932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡet0d6UjA68
day and sitting by the pond felt so relieving.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOYQHLyqWU
"Have you figured something yet?" G-Dragon asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ251WvmntiI
I frowned and looked at him. "No, why do you ask?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRPhlF8ac7
"You seem to be smiling to yourself," said G-Dragon as he looked at me.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6H6XpwLIHC
"No, I'm actually enjoying what I'm experiencing right now."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXrPgOIDK7
"You love nature, don't you?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGiW45cOZf
I closed my eyes, still smiling. "Ya. I really do."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wO4Cls7Ft
At that moment, I was so932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0Q4dnV6OB
caught in the little world inside my head. For a moment, I forgot about932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf9x5zhduCH
everything. About looking for Zoey, being famous, and the whole world 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFxddicgFiP
with everyone and everything in it. It's like they never existed because932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPajEqLVYFD
even the noise around me seemed non existent.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVP2ipdZYV
Then I felt something 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPizP67RjXE
brush against my hand like a soft feather. The touch brought me back to 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk0hFKcoCxp
reality and I quickly opened my eyes. I looked beside me and G-Dragon 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6CsirHdyp
was staring at me.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7bCLZ3BCaO
"What?" I asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TCNBE3DGG
"Has anyone ever told you how beautiful you are?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZAazvDHQwZ
I blushed all of the 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQgLf85mbbl
sudden and I looked down. His hand covered mine and for a moment I 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQxbpTvdOs
wanted to pull away. But then again, I couldn't explain how I felt with 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxXj7x4ldt
his hand on mine. I felt this weird comfort.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO930InMsjw
I would have said yes to932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAKGqVCfosl
his question, but no words came out. This wasn't right. As much as I 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPLLeJbZPEm
wanted him close to me, I knew I would end up getting hurt because we 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzg6IoA9gN
were never meant to be.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKLigjNNfn8
"Umm," I pulled my hand away and put it closer to my body. "Please don't say that GD."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA35OY4SHkr
"Why?" He asked softly.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW6PHOu06SY
"Because this isn't right at all and you know it."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡliO6YA7K3E
"What do you mean?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWKSeamT85
"You know that I ready know about Zoey and you. You guys are more like a couple."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNHdiHYHl49
"So?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHL50YCihqQ
"I want you to stay far away from me as possible. The further we are apart, the better it is for the both of us."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXLUhuFuYz
"Looks like you figured out that I don't really like Zoey as such as I like you."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ96JPrNPllf
I didn't say anything as I continued to figure out what to say next.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUd8srohSwq
"Then why are you leading Zoey on? She doesn't deserve this, you know?" I asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyjPmPGibkx
"I know."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFlW3oNUJM
"Then why are you doing this?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlzXH1OW2u9
G-Dragon looked at me like he never had before. He soon looked away and sighed.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfHju27zyQ
"I'm doing this because of you, Sam. But even if I do so, I still can't get you out of my head."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwAAFC7JWBT
I also looked the other way, trying to act like those words hadn't affected me. But they did and they did so badly.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgj6fvqBI8
"You should find another932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡha54k9EjDs
way to do so, GD." I turned to look back at him and he faced me. "But 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhvh1qYiof
not with Zoey. I don't want her getting hurt because of the both of us. I932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG0mPtFEyQq
will never forgive myself."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBr98D9ootA
G-Dragon nodded his head. "I'll do so."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQV2ZZBudZ
I wanted to smile but I 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPi6o3Or1jj
couldn't bring myself to do it. I hoped he kept his word and maybe with 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzYLa7o0s28
this little talk we've had, we would be friends again and stop acting 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEZfBlaQojI
like we had beef with each other.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdjhTzvkWhx
Just as I was about to 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWUPTf4npgx
ask him why he had been giving me the attitude lately and if it had 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDFeP08WGj6
anything to do with his jealousy, his phone rang. He quickly removed it 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIeQR9PvkEi
from his pocket and answered it.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmb444H8dQR
"Hello? Christine?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvIDUw8vF5X
I was now attentive. Had she found Zoey? I wished I could have talked to her myself.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuvfAQWXgxz
"Okay, we will be right there. Inform the others as well."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO02RbmS73h
"What happened?" I asked after he cut the call.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOjmnaEG0D
"Christine called to tell me that she knows where Zoey is."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNV69CEZH6
"Where is she?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiuzCYCVbZE
"She is at a famous café. I know where it is."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFyQjQuOWNJ
"But how did Christine know where Zoey is?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMHRjDDVFV
"Zoey's phone went back on and she texted where she was. And she is not alone."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYLcwTJ1lB
"Who is she with?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyilvimc90b
"We're about to find out. Let's go."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhCuNZFaTHG
G-Dragon got up from the932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPL2kNVhN2
ground and he held out his hand to me. I took it and he pulled me up 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSDzyb8uZm
from the ground. We left the park together, heading towards his car.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6uZ70an2Ia
When we got in his car, 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWaQVMebi6A
we drove through the city and we arrived at this small fancy café. We 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBOOs6XQHV0
parked across the street and before we could get out of the car, I 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiobeXqZOo9
looked across towards the café.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzaS1zx6L30
"Can you see, Zoey?" G-Dragon asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqP9O1NzyFp
Through the huge window,932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtETFpvGw19
I could see what was going on inside. Looked like a lot of people 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1lsuI9SIJ
enjoyed coming over to the café. The place was parked for an ordinary 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡisZMqKwHo5
day in the afternoon.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMok839YX70
I searched for Zoey, but932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQJJDZeocq
I couldn't see her. It was then that I saw Zoey at the far corner of 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHf6SfdVOY
the café. She was facing the window side and I saw her with someone. 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdezVsUSnpT
Sitting opposite her was a man in a fancy looking black suit. From afar,932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXPuIJX2iy
I could tell his suit was expensive and I couldn't see his face.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMeimr0sRKA
"I see her," I said. "And she is definitely with someone."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3WMlesTZp
"Who is it?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfyflG2OE2A
"I don't know. By the look of his suit, he seems like a business man or one rich tycoon."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4OsKCDENlH
"Seriously?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk1F9oNySbH
"You think I'm kidding?" I turned to look at him. "Or are you now jealous that Zoey is hanging out with someone who isn't you?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNbS5dqItP
G-Dragon looked towards the windshield, avoiding my gaze. "No, I'm not. I'm just wondering who it was, that's all."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLfnPafDtfy
I rolled my eyes and 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWilUbnu1ct
said nothing more. I went back to looking at the café and focused on 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ999nOZHOEy
Zoey. I decided to read her body language and see if she was okay. She 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA1x23UVuH5
looked like she was enjoying herself, chatting with this stranger.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6XT9r3mXiR
She was sipping her cup 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡevdjRnzEnh
of coffee and she went back to smiling at the stranger. Something was a 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG4OdbNqtY0
bit off and I shifted on my seat to see if I was seeing right.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXLc5UVEV7X
"Hey, is something wrong?" G-Dragon asked, noticing my tension.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCh079NlpZ
"Ya."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzL9g5uTfLH
G-Dragon also turned on his seat and looked through the window.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKmYf4RMpnO
Zoey's smile made me 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDtdgyGvFh
wonder what was going on. She was smiling and chatting but she looked a 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkCXqKNWiKZ
little nervous. Usually when she is with a guy, she was always the one 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfonFDqm9Wk
who was never scared of leading the conversation and became pretty932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0TlXmfxEr
comfortable with the person. Unless the guy was creepy enough to be a serial killer.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlnuXpUaymR
I felt a threat coming 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVxxwsuC2R
up. Was this guy dangerous? Zoey had a nervous smile on her face and if I932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaAabSqlOUw
was not mistaken, I think I noticed her fingers tap frantically on the 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeyQf5Ho07o
table. She did that whenever she was nervous. I had to know what was 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspWIXeyf5m
going on in there.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXX525ZOEri
"Let's go," I said as I turned to look at G-Dragon. "I'm not liking this."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQHa9EGy4r
"Thank you," said G-Dragon, looking relieved. "I had a bad feeling about this guy."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuH42NoTrua
"Ya, right," I said as I grabbed the handle of the door, opened it and stepped out.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡueVkOguNSJ
Just as G-Dragon came 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYNsYZUirB
out of the car, three cars appeared off the main road and came to park 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0OwQbQWoy
in the parking space behind G-Dragon's car. The others had arrived.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9iCvq0lTv
"Christine told us to meet you here," said Taeyang as he and Mike came out of his car.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwoOA7a42WP
"Zoey's in the café," I said as I pointed across the road.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGuH2OXokk
"Alright, let's go," said Seungri.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6X0OcsaJVF
When I looked back at the café window, I noticed that Zoey was all alone on her table. That was odd. Where was he?932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSvu4hEcbl2
"Oh, no, no, no," I said staring wide eyed inside the café.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0fwHuZRVnz
"What is it, Sam?" Daesung asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIsO9AlfSaQ
I didn't answer him as I932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafGmmbgBq1
quickly dashed across the road without even checking for any cars. I 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQBcYFC9Oo
could hear the others behind call out to me to be careful. I luckily 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx9hdp5k1z3
managed to reach the café without getting hit.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGprQWOTOHV
When I got to the café, a932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8YGFAD4xta
few people came out through the door. None of them matched the person 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcaAr7rGB4G
who was in the café with Zoey. I quickly went in and I found Zoey still 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc2Vh95HSPB
sitting in the corner. I rushed over to her that my presence scared her.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkpBm6KWuUc
"Sam! You scared me to death!" Zoey held her chest as she breathed in and out so heavily, trying to calm down.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbgbBWfq1af
"Where did you go?" I asked, taking the seat the stranger had been sitting on earlier.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJlu4K4DAY
"Oh, I...um.." Zoey played with her fingers.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvY3UrcXR7
"Don't you dare try to 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxOfiiXuNXR
lie to me, Zoey," I threatened. "You went with GD for lunch and the two 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVICRblAZH
of you went to the park. When GD went to get ice cream, you had 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJLOAYq8aF
disappeared. And the next thing we know, you're here."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5i8PdLlra
"Christine told you where I was?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8Je8x4tn5
"Of course she had to. We were worried sick."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ouHS1sF59
I heard the bell of the 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGpO1JPnYy
café ring and I knew the others had arrived. They soon came over by the 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2NZYE76qX
table. Only Taeyang, G-Dragon and Daniel were the ones who came in.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Ok4zWiyQZ
"Zoey where have you been?" Daniel asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29ia4tU8Qw
"And who was that guy you were with, huh?" G-Dragon asked, looking down at Zoey with a frown on his face.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ27dOMNSefM
"Awww, are you jealous, my G-Dragon?" Zoey smiled at him.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkOKeiYOKd
"Stop taking all this 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuEvmpxxe4h
like a joke, Zoey. I saw the way you were behaving with him. You weren't932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Tkm3qMWQi
yourself when I saw you from across the street," I said.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKeRH2B4ikf
The smile on Zoey's face932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdL0ZfWJ77
disappeared in an instant. Good. Maybe now she would take us seriously.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWsvKhnEKQ
Her safety was way more important than she could ever imagine. If 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62XPRiK5T4
anything had happened to her, a lot of us here would never forgive 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHXtF0AyAr
ourselves.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvOJZY5uA4
"Can we please get out of here?" Taeyang suggested. "This isn't the place to discuss this."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gxNtThuTO
"You're right," I said 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWbbrjgm9P
as I looked around the café and many heads were turning our way. I hated932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2pbP34Qrl
attracting so much attention sometimes.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7cyHWYhDTB
The others had started 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYwjNkD8q1
to leave and Zoey and I both stood up from the table. I noticed the 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ddTbnzQOd
teacup the stranger had used and my mind still couldn't stop thinking 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXtyNYj6pl7
about who he was.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfWEHg4CgS
After we left the café, 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡivCdw86LlC
we went back across the road where the vehicles were parked. Daesung, 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdStgmMJeU
TOP, Mike and Daesung stood waiting for us.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbsc8AaE0wJ
"Thank goodness, you're alright, Zoey," said Daesung.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZddspTo4a0
"Ya, thank goodness you weren't lost," said Mike. "We wondered if we would find you in a ditch or something."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpZiv5fuYE
Zoey frowned at Mike and all he could do was smile back at her mischievously.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0bE5nQRNxB
"Let's all go back to the hotel, shall we?" I suggested. "Zoey can tell us everything from there."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1G0H2Ijcy
Zoey and I went in 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0UNJKGPobj
G-Dragon's car making sure I sat in the backseat. The others got in the 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjWZM9vNXk
other cars and we drove off, G-Dragon's car leading the way.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydQAXQZ8uV
We were all back in the 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVV6DsGZRO2
hotel on our floor. Luckily, Collins wasn't around. I was relieved. Now I932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGu0WV1omz
could vent out all my anger on Zoey.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ464JCr9lOX
We gathered ourselves in932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO5bvJOfPqC
the lounge. The others sat on the couch and made themselves 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz108lSCjSx
comfortable. Zoey and I were left standing and I looked at her, with my 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvkZJlfLbia
hands on my hips.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZgQPiMgmIH
"Okay, let's start with why you disappeared?" I asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwBDb2WPPk
"No, don't ask that," said G-Dragon. "Ask who she was with first."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcHD4ooGy54
"I'm the one asking the questions." I turned to face G-Dragon. "I want to know what made her go like that."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwEQWVWSFKk
"Fine, I tell you," said932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMXH8BL040c
Zoey raising her hand to calm me down. "G-Dragon went over to get some 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAZFrfB9LuC
ice cream when a person came up to me. Said he was my biggest fan."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCR5H4Rx9iP
"Don't tell me you fell for the person's good looks like always," said Christine shaking her head.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITvuVzjKei
"You know handsome men are my weakness," said Zoey. "Sorry G-Dragon."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOuUI6cmfpm
"No, I don't mind," said932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6RwUFtnnDI
G-Dragon, shaking his head. I looked at him again and I was surprised 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4lr2PKSj9
with the look on his face that he really didn't mind at all.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQ9IBi4IA7
"So, he said he is your biggest fan and then what?" Taeyang asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7H67dnwafA
"He offered that the two of us go out for some coffee," said Zoey. "That's how I left."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXXzblICWR
"Now that makes no sense or maybe you have no sense, Zoey," said Seungri.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8PWFRTUDMs
"Huh?" Zoey looked at Seungri, looking embarrassed.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGInKmQGpH
"As much as that sounds 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLCC3ohkm8C
totally embarrassing, Seungri is right," said Christine. "What you said 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVOgWXGTHI
doesn't make sense at all. How could you go out for coffee with someone 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡddcMZpPIzh
you claims to be your fan without taking G-Dragon along with you?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrqOBNTNjke
I started to tap my foot932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhPIdQ9i4Ft
and looked at Zoey, ready to breathe out fire if necessary. Christine 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0E8KuHKXvS
was right and surprisingly, Seungri too. She wasn't telling us the 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQfnuo3cUMz
truth.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5RkNJGE3v
"Come on, Zoey, tell us 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQe4ruIdGw
what really happened," I said. "You couldn't leave without GD. And you 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJO3pUQTm5X
had your phone turned off. All I know about the person you were with is 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXVEYssCdNO
that he was wearing an expensive black suit."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD8KTy3eVI0
"Okay, do you really want to know the truth?" Zoey asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzI2ez21z8r
"Yes!" everyone replied at the same time, that almost made Zoey jump in fright.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67R96bmYUX
"Okay, okay, eish," said932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPbRUB6s0r3
Zoey. "You scared the hell out of me. The truth is, I went with my fan 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqjjP1PiWf1
because he insisted that I go with him and not tell anyone about it."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBK7Gf7nep2
"Huh?" TOP looked confused.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIzbBnTozC6
"What fan lays out that kind of condition?" Mike asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrcqdgTe3J
"Someone who was ready to take advantage of Zoey," I answered.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObIhn6kq0K
"If he did, you guys still wouldn't have found me," said Zoey.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVoCpPEScGd
"If he did, you wouldn't have been looking so nervous in the café."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDB0Y6X9pyL
Zoey was quiet and I still felt that she wasn't telling us the whole truth. I decided to play along and not say a word.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9MU3ncxtTP
"Then what were you two talking about?" I asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMmPSs7WBha
"Just stuff," said Zoey, avoiding my eyes. "About me and my celebrity life."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbsbH60VPkm
"You're sure?" I asked. "Didn't he talk about himself?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvM4RTXeG5v
"Ya, totally." Zoey nodded her head. He never said anything about himself. Not even his name."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWE9JR2EkuF
"Then why did you look so nervous in the café?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjw71txTqvb
"He was asking some personal questions I didn't like."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡywBlTJNDFa
"Are you sure?" Daniel 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcMBs716HmY
asked. "When someone asks you a personal question, you either snap back 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3yP97D7Jgv
at them or walk away. Whether it's an annoying reporter, any of your 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKH1mzGlRFc
haters or even us."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW09mvfUhk4
Daniel was right. Zoey 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKaCH2l835p
would have stood and walked away from the stranger but she didn't. I 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDyorb6bZ7
wondered what question he might have asked her. That's if Zoey was 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsr5yF7Pd8E
telling the truth.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJhyBB6AfH
"I didn't want to look so mean in front of him," said Zoey. "He seemed like a very nice guy."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7uNkl2UC1
"A very nice guy that 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2r919bxfK8
made you run off with him, made you switch off your phone and made you 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKS3O5qmLTu
so uncomfortable," said G-Dragon, looking really irritated.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXsJ0sUeb7w
"Come on," said Zoey. "He wasn't that bad, seriously."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8XxoFgLyD
I didn't want to 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvCiReRH8J
pressurise Zoey with more questions. Right now, she was getting away 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6qrbACYKU
with it. If she was hiding something, I would find out sooner or later.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMz0jWELtn
"Okay," I said. "We're just glad you're fine."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZoVzMiZsyi
"And not dead," said 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShIQUKqp7Z
Mike with a smirk. Seungri and Christine who sat on either side of him, 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWcHwF9SVQ
both gave him the elbow in the side and he howled in pain.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6z2zge1UU
"I'll pretend I never heard that," said Zoey.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzwdiffeAP
"And you better get 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDElt0ZaQR
ready for Collins," I said giving Zoey a smirk of my own. "We told him 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgP1F3kPEKF
you had a bad tummy ache and that's why you weren't at the studio."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8IBeS9u7k
"Seriously?" Zoey gave me an angry stare. "Couldn't you have told him a better lie?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHcbqZBj1u0
"That you were missing? Fat chance. You've already put some of us into enough trouble for one day."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTsxFwOpY2
"Alright. Sorry. I won't do that again."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3Ajqi0aaT
I rolled my eyes, while shaking my head and went over to the dining table. Something told me it wouldn't be the last.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMpBWay9LqQ
"Well, now that you're found," said Daesung, as he stood up. "Some of us better get going."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYW3u9ouj4p
"Sorry for putting you guys into so much trouble," said Zoey.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDgiTs5KLUx
"As long as you're fine and Collins isn't going to kill us, it's okay," said Taeyang with a smile.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGep55PCzjY
"I'll be leaving too," said Seungri and he gave Zoey a hug and he walked over to hug me as well.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfhJwC7KlIR
"Alright, see you tomorrow," I said.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5hQ4SzJwZ
One by one the BigBang 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAnCrmFaGcZ
members started to leave, saying bye to each other. G-Dragon stayed 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2nuKdbpppa
behind with Zoey so that they could talk a little. Giving them privacy, 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6LW6EfKcl
Christine, my brothers and I left for our rooms.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Ht8aSjPKM
When I went in my room, I932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6CQXSdLDOk
went for my phone that was still charging on my bed. The phone was 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUiUfVlph6F
still off and I decided to switch it on. It was almost full.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBcsI6tElcD
There was a knock on the door and I called out to the person to come in. Christine entered.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0t470Pmxb
"Hey, can we talk?" Christine asked as she closed the door behind her.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaCoRwzhbds
"About what?" I turned to look at her.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN66btYRadT
"Do you really believe what Zoey told us?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaYFK6RYF9v
"No, I don't." I sat on the bed.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgs687nH3z
"Looks like I'm not the only one," said Christine as she came to sit on Zoey's bed, facing me.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwrTJ8xvayk
"I wonder why she isn't telling us the truth."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCrORLiF2kG
"Did you see the man's face?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2qPeqiHEJ
"No. All I could say is that he wore a fancy and expensive suit."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5yV7EypoJZ
"I wonder who he is. Maybe he is some rich tycoon or something."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzoQIddAXE7
"That's what I thought too." I gave Christine a smile.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9ZLyXTnNT
"I bet he is good 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJR6ampT3b
looking too. I still wonder why Zoey left like that without telling 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgPcBrzZuMf
anyone. Do you think she really did all that just because the stranger 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlzKgraOoz
told her to?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp1D8XVzAth
"Well, I believe her on that part. I'm just wondering how he managed to convince her to come with him. Maybe he threatened her?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTM0nhuqGHV
Christine's jaw dropped. "Don't say that. I know there is no any other logical explanation, but I think that's way too far."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNmjU2pexq
"You said so yourself, Christine. There is no other explanation. He might have blackmailed her or something."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIMgItvkmwH
"Okay, but blackmailed her with what?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHHzog1WD0
"That we have to find out."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmjMEV7igyT
I was just about to grab my phone and check out if I had any messages when Zoey came in the room.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1vynSNqib
"Oh. Has GD left already?" Christine asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXG9Exmb4sA
"Ya. He left," Zoey replied. I heard a bit of sadness in her voice.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDjA9OAGvy
"Are you okay? You don't look alright," I said.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtmiWYipVXP
"I'm fine. G-Dragon and I talked about something serious."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvDqAhkHxQ
Oh my. Had he told her 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡosJICQMzsH
about what we had discussed earlier at the park? As much as I knew it 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ZpW9am39F
was going to hurt Zoey, it was for the best. Besides, she was going to 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbS4lkS3gNC
find someone way better than G-Dragon. Hopefully, even me.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUxsbS2o08C
"What did you talk about?" I asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZREwZBZ5c3
"He was just pissed that932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdND3yQ2icQ
I left like that," Zoey answered. "He thought maybe he said something 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4N7Afl0DNp
that might have upset me or something."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1EfbVJzEo1
"Oh." That wasn't what I was expecting. "Well, I had asked him earlier if he had said something that might have upset you."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl78t25tXWP
"But he didn't."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmEE2wcTCnI
"I see why Sam asked," 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbalNSeyfMc
said Christine. "When someone gets you so upset, you run away. You've 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtokgHzmAIv
done that many times before back home during our school days, you know?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMwZHGO3sZ1
"Ya I know. Forget about it." Zoey waved her hand in annoyance. "What's happened has happened."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpttig4FZxP
And I hope it will never932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡymuPUId9UL
happen again, but this guy in the suit still worried me. Until I know 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOB64syyenq
who he is, I wasn't going to pretend that the worst has passed when it 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWyrVB3nk0F
was yet to come at any moment.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvr2SHVFm3
The next thing I knew, the door to our room flew open and Lee walked in.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUTu9R9NYg
"Lee!" the three of us exclaimed in excitement.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡumJknihRTS
"Wow! Did you guys miss me?" Lee asked with a smile on her face.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0YBvTxRsoh
"Ya, we did," said Zoey, putting her arm over Lee's shoulders.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEnih8zaAr
"Well, I missed you too," said Lee. "So, what happened today? I heard you never finished up on the song."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3vT4gOIVgb
Christine, Zoey and I 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1f5vDWWfj
shook our heads and talked randomly at the same time, saying nothing 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwcNgrTOioy
really happened. Lee knew something was up and even if it could clearly 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2sIqNUwJC
show on her face, she didn't push us. She just smiled.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ry5u7xWXa
"Well, you'll tell me later," said Lee. "Collins and I were just....."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlEH3wZUrW
"Collins is here!" Zoey's face went white like a sheet.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeuklYMEdDX
"Yes, he is," said Lee 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡejkCuuXUMU
with a wicked smile. "Now if you don't want to get into trouble, I 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPpWEPNVbRw
suggest you go on your bed and cry out that you still aren't feeling 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEY5XCAcsri
well."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6T7B97Fom
Christine and I almost burst out laughing. Zoey frowned.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubtEsOgupE
"Ha, ha, very funny," said Zoey as she went over to her bed and sat down.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoPL1fVIUko
"As I was saying," said Lee. "We were in the lobby when we received a package from the receptionist. Said it was for you guys."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5XzCQHzajU
"Us?" I asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4nsTFrb9kx
"Ya, the letter on the package was directed to The Toxins. It's with Collins in the lounge."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPTJcBDaaCP
Christine and I rushed 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhw0VUEXapD
out of the room leaving Zoey with Lee. She had to pretend she was still 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBR0SWSWTj0
not feeling well. We found Collins in the lounge with the package in his932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPmsYkbBBei
hand.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPwLPRenj7
"Hey, Collins," I said. "What's that?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzhISMeF2fS
"This came in for you guys," said Collins. "And with a letter too."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ911vR72hLN
"Did I hear there is something for us?" Daniel asked as he and Mike came in the lounge.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgecr46zdW
"Ya. Here you go." Collins gave me the package.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEGumHZxZgi
The package was wrapped in a brown wrapper and on top of it was a white envelope. It was directed to us just as Lee said.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaUb7VDSmnE
I took the letter and 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbrHDKREyUb
gave the package for Christine to hold and opened the envelope to remove932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxj90txUwcg
a letter. I unfolded the letter and I read it out loud:932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwmJ6nZc7GR
"Hope you're all okay. Just wanted to say I'm your biggest fan. With lots of love."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkYmefdwJIs
"That's it?" Mike asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbeGR6whtzt
"Ya, that's pretty much it," I said, looking behind the letter but there was nothing. "No name at all."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMrGe330yhl
"Did you see anyone who sent this?" Daniel asked Collins.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIRJklJgXGk
"All that the 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdnbdwuvmW
receptionist told us was that some young man in a suit gave it to her 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyJgDMx5HdS
and she should give either you guys or us when we came by the lobby."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74tqe03jEw
My eyes went wide and my932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6K92D6J2R2
heart pace quickened. Did Collins just say a young man in a suit? Maybe932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpItq4FjdDw
I heard wrong and needed some clarification.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr3qz8vTlN2
"A young man in a suit?" Mike asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHnNLAPgj7m
"Ya. Do you perhaps know him?" Collins asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkr37XiEhi4
"Huh, no," said Christine, shaking her head.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4VUGGN3PfB
"Oh. For a moment there, you guys looked a little frightened," said Collins. "I thought you might know him."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxbn5nnozuU
We did know him all right. The man who had been with Zoey. But who really was this guy? And this package? What could be in it?932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3FkADNZF1X
"Open it, Christine," said Daniel.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgM5Flb2ktG
Christine threw Daniel 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxEoV0OM4rL
an angry glance. She obviously didn't want to open it and I knew what 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgYkjs9kTYq
she was thinking. What if there was a bomb inside? Or maybe something to932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBj9TPWrug
threaten or blackmail us? You could only think of the worst from a 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK4p35ZPhNI
person you barely even knew.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBNZVP64vu
"Let me," I said as I took the package from Christine and I sat down on the couch with the package on my lap.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiahJN4lHQn
Collins was watching us for a second and then left the lounge. I sighed in relief and so did the others.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5V6bE7lpD
"I thought he would never leave," Mike whispered after we heard the door to Collins' room open and close.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX32wIV7F39
"Can you check if he is really in his room?" I asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHje97JNJA
Mike went in the hall and came back seconds later. "He is in the room."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5eBRjOvM9P
"I'm really nervous," said Christine. "What is in there?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡecuGTH8GaC
"I don't know," said Daniel. "I hope it is nothing that could kill us."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZuQJqeg6m
Mike hit Daniel at the back of his head and Daniel whined in pain.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNNZyq1fe9
"Don't say that," said Mike. "I don't want to die soon."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjmEWzoLEL
"Guys, calm down," I said. "Let's just open this thing and see what's in it."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbvbAuEmfNO
"Okay, but take your 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0sy9IQDWZ
time," said Christine. "If there is a bomb in there, I want to say my 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmvOpOhfyXs
last prayers before I leave this earth."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhxCTlj87bV
I rolled my eyes but I 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUOg6xWLlG
was as scared as the rest of them. If we were to make out of this alive,932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK1U8q9yjXk
I was going to kill Zoey myself for dragging us into this mess.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGkNMtdr3t0
I started to unwrap the package. It was a white box.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVPzVRYj9Q
The other three couldn't932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFX49DgAjqL
stop staring at the box and I needed to end this paranoia once and for 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsuu2Uk7Ir
all. I quickly removed the lid without thinking that there might be 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKNqF3rEPL
something dangerous in the box. The others even covered their faces. But932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3XBQL5PEqB
nothing happened.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmbmznkR5V
"What the....?" I looked in the box and what I saw, shocked me completely.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTig9JRdJtG
"What is it?" Christine asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFlFvG0QvCq
I looked up at the 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWhdlOIkuU
others and they bended over to see what was in the box. Their jaws 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRkDKY25ut
dropped almost at the same time and we looked at each other.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxdgXFJfwQ
"This is just ridiculous," I said as I shook my head.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19TW8BqjNN
Christine, Mike and Daniel suddenly burst out laughing.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZShCbXoIg
Zoey and Lee came rushing into the lounge.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6gh3cBHGFs
"Hey? What's going on?" Zoey asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEokFQ40e4Q
No one answered. I was too speechless to say anything and the rest were still laughing.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqz0Lo8cVVw
"What is in the package, Sam?" Lee asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjb4cdwHXVD
I soon removed a little cute brown teddy bear and held it up for Zoey and Lee to see.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1e3pPL9fd
"Huh? You're laughing all because of a teddy bear?" Zoey looked at the others, wondering if they were okay in the head.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltvwwW3NXn
"Oh, my goodness, Zoey," said Christine trying to catch her breath with tears in her eyes. "Can't you see it?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorpvOQeYER
"See what?" Zoey and Lee asked the same time.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7i0mloiSS1
"The...the...suit!" Mike laughed even more, pointing at the teddy bear.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtleCm5Z4MZ
It was then that Zoey 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gWLUUpYYC
looked at the bear in my hand and recognised that the tiny teddy bear 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOnpzDAPUDu
wore a tiny black suit with a tiny black tie. Zoey looked like she was 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpkWr6zYQRD
about to get sick. Looked like she already figured out it was the932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc9PSVvPvyb
stranger who she was with today that sent it.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBhfRT1krL1
"Guys, what am I missing here?" Lee asked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCEBSG6EOrt
"Zoey will tell you all about it," I said. "I believe this is yours." I gave the teddy bear to Zoey who held it in her hand.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNA73ukgH8u
The other three continued to laugh when they saw Zoey take the bear. Lee looked as confused as ever.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFXHwmKlAu
"And here I thought it was a bomb," said Daniel, wiping away the tears in his eyes.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjscyDWyM7
"Ya. But it just turned out to be a bear in a suit," said Christine. "A harmless bear!"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvqzRW85Fh
This time, they laughed 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIiU4olvcYj
even louder and I couldn't help but start laughing too. A minute ago, we932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhaQfTTw6z
