Mr Teddy in a suit was 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNajRIUEK9j
treated like a celebrity and became a trending topic on social media. 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZokIYTGttC
Last night, we had posted pics of it and sent them on Instagram to our 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9dTDthCW3e
darling fans who loved the stuffed bear instantly. I had to admit, it 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRVD8nJgvO
was so much fun taking cute selfies and videos with the little teddy. 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0LUS4wGnF5
Even Lee joined in the fun after we told her the whole story. The only 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQolbbcPum
person who wasn't enjoying all this, was Zoey.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxOmkNtD1j
Back at the studio the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡon8koaA79h
next day, the BigBang members couldn't help but ask us what had gone on 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2tkG5guPAy
with the teddy bear. With the looks on their faces, it's like they 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKmYdMOb5b
already knew who sent it.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFlyiwVKIWN
"Don't tell me the guy in the suit sent it?" Daesung asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFeCDxlLqc1
"Yep. He's the one," I replied, nodding my head.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrCnvrsrHa
"I can't believe it," 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ3OgmmufIg
said Seungri. "When I saw that teddy bear in the suit, I knew it had to 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2hZYssHRv
do with that guy. I thought I was being paranoid."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1D6vUKhNUu
"Well, whoever it is, 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxopVmHwATr
really sent us laughing yesterday," said Christine, giggling a little. 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMEPkVQsPFp
"We all thought he sent us a bomb or some threatening letter."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gpuRjEcVV
"Ya, we could see you guys were having fun on Instagram," said Taeyang.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXfIPOZVkH
"And Zoey is still pissed," said Mike. "This is the longest I've ever seen her upset in my life."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVrTp37uXr
"Until all of this cools down, we have to keep a cool head around her from now on and not say anything stupid," said G-Dragon.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkrth5FoSxS
"Where is she anyway?" TOP asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJY3uMRpojJ
"She went to use the ladies' room," said Christine. "Must be she doesn't want to hear us talking about the teddy bear."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHVGFKZYGE2
A moment later, Zoey 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1eSnan7dy
came in the room and we all turned to look at her. She seemed a little 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2tAtOHaYK
absent minded and hadn't noticed the silence that fell amongst us as 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Qw3ArE3os
soon as she walked in.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡna9C8BMHee
As she came further into the room towards us on the couch, I got a little worried. Somebody had to snap her out of her mind.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrTyS6hTo03
"Zoey?" G-Dragon stood up and walked over to her. "Are you okay?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9dgCKyw0xb
"Huh?" Zoey blinked for a moment as though she had woken up from a dream. "What did you say?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1cPpZ8i6wc
"You seem so preoccupied."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWZCXfCQRJ
"I'm fine," said Zoey. "I just didn't sleep well last night."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbBQAO5bdHu
"Why? Did you dream 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4eSo3oPGnn
about the teddy bear haunting you?" Mike asked with a grin. Taeyang and 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6UFfg6vhn
TOP who sat on either side of him hit him on the shoulders.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCB5eZYLHRM
"Very funny, Mike," said Zoey, giving him a frown. "I didn't have any nightmares."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe64AeCQnoS
"Then why didn't you get enough sleep?" I asked. "Was it about the guy in the suit?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCpw2M35Yh
Zoey looked at me and 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2f1bwphtkQ
nodded. Looks like she wasn't the only one who was worried about him. 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0TfTqWh4F
The others might think he was nothing but an ordinary fan who meant no 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBf3Fb2FHw8
harm. But to me, he was someone I had to look out for.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMsZFRScgq
"Come on, Zoey," said Christine. "I doubt if he would show up again. I bet after sending us that teddy, he is pretty harmless."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt25HrXvD9C
"Ya, you don't have to 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡukCZSVZ8pd
worry about him anymore," I said as I played along to see Zoey's 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTBZxCeO8Lo
reaction. "I mean, you did say he is a very nice guy. We just got 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr7FDhpiQd5
carried away yesterday thinking he was bad. But when he sent the teddy, 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZKp5FovnV
he doesn't seem that way anymore."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhDIUMxX3xm
"I don't trust him though," said Zoey.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ684sr5Nngh
"Why?" G-Dragon asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjbOW3T2TI9
"What if he shows up again?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYFBCrtRbrt
"Then we will take him out for lunch and get to know him, right?" Seungri suggested.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoJdUD62Dg
A lot of us nodded our 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzsDzfJty7I
heads in agreement saying it was a good idea. I took a glance at Zoey 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRovIzr9JiM
and I saw her shaking her head a little. She looked even more nervous 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvLdr94XbH3
than before. Her reaction confirmed everything. Something did happen 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDWzd1MurJL
between Zoey and the stranger that she wasn't telling us about. And I 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05Bt1QQm1n
was determined to find out no matter what.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjemboNHvXL
"Anyway, enough of that," said TOP. "Aren't we supposed to finish up on the song?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyt9Qh1Pycy
"I wonder where the music producer is," said Daniel.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKUYkK8RNK
"He must be around," I said. "Someone should go and check on him."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCdWMhLtZOg
"I'll go," said G-Dragon.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNurzqpjetg
"Let me go with you," said Zoey.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwaP5BGLR11
G-Dragon nodded and the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLrCnj2oik
two left the room. Looked like Zoey still didn't want to hang around us,1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8xsHNRgrnY
thinking we might go back to talking about the teddy bear and the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUeiJKlG8vt
mysterious stranger again.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xDgdPHaz0
"I wonder what's up with Zoey," said Taeyang.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMlye6AJnD4
"She's just being paranoid," said Mike. "She shouldn't worry too much."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7iB1oBVTo
"That's the thing, Mike," said Daniel. "Zoey never worries too much. She's one who doesn't stress herself out."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVMJhcCSEZw
"It will pass in no time," I said. "We ourselves shouldn't be too worried."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBeFzzIGBEY
Lee soon came in the studio and surprisingly, she had Mr Teddy with her.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYl7U34mLI
"Mr Teddy!" Christine and I exclaimed happily at the same time.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIrD45ayXpS
"Hey, guys. Weren't you supposed to be finishing up with the song?" Lee asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM1aNjPG9al
"We're waiting for the music producer to show up," said Daesung.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvUHHMBuH1Q
"And why did you bring 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1SCQ6xM7gY
Mr Teddy along?" I asked as I went over to Lee and took the little 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOgSuMMdQS4
teddy. "You know Zoey doesn't even want to look at it. Like, never 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbWlt8Ejsi
ever."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXhWLwyn9MI
"Come on, it's harmless and I carried it around for personal reasons. By the way, where is Zoey?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zCyhHFemw
"Went looking for the music producer with G-Dragon," said Mike.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKuQqcqoppk
"Aren't you supposed to be with Collins and Yang Hyun-suk? You seemed very busy yesterday," I said.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyXKDXY8Qa
"Oh, no," said Lee, backing away and shaking her index finger at me. "I see what you're getting at."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9YGIflDeHq
"What?" I asked, shrugging.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAYcgV1oUPB
"You want me to tell you what's going on, don't you?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIMkAU3ZPGZ
I raised an eyebrow at Lee and the others also found all of this odd.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9VHSiGO54J
"I wasn't going to ask," I said innocently. "Seriously."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLIo5lYOmBh
"Is there something coming up we should know about?" Christine asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Xo0yf0f3c
"I'm not the one whose supposed to tell you. Your managers are," said Lee.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOkeGF6gsO
"It's fine by me," I said. "We will find out from them."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wHPSQaaCW
"Good," said Lee, 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdM9rGd7Fj
straightening herself and grabbing Mr Teddy from me. "I think I'll leave1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5UwGeFwUOu
now or else you, Sam, might make me tell you everything. Given that eye1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74Z3iHqFE1
of yours."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnM8OPtFhKf
The others snickered behind me and I sighed. Looks like the others weren't joking yesterday about the eye.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwFdCUgsdLb
Just as Lee was about to leave the room, the door flew open and the music producer came in.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbfypqerT4T
"Sorry, I'm late," said the music producer. "Let's get started."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvszpe3eej
"Ummm, Zoey and G-Dragon just went out looking for you," said Taeyang.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ45NWp5uYky
"Well, call them," said the music producer.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4qS6uBAvLV
"Looks like G-Dragon left his phone behind." Taeyang held up G-Dragon's phone.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4tYLug9jc
"And Zoey gave me hers to hold on to for a while," said Christine.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKYQhvWQjto
"Well, someone better go and look for them," said the music producer.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJSiJyGeym
"I'll go," I volunteered.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRTsr8RaK1k
"I'll come with you," said Daesung.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcKxXJr321N
"Find them quick, will you?" Daniel asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBClxpa3NmJ
"We'll try," said Daesung.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1k1QTtts48
Daesung and I both left 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHeXmHh3APn
the studio with Lee who went upstairs. Daesung and I first went around 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW8c0UdRWCm
the other studio rooms to check, but no luck. We decided to go and check1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLyVbhQ1rxQ
the dance studios.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZXILpvQPgQ
"Do you think they might have gone out again?" Daesung asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOgYR1MBCO
"I doubt it," I said as I1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmo7x1yDzTU
opened the door to one of the studio rooms and found it completely 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNT7dSfReEw
empty. "They know they can't leave until we are done with the song."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0p1cH42xt8
"Ya," said Daesung as he also checked another empty studio room. "Those two really are something."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2dYmSqgFS
"Tell me about it." I smiled as I rolled my eyes.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhIxx7PheWM
"Won't Collins freak out if he ever found out that they have a thing going on?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCXBtvJdqG
"You already know 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDm4UmrLNsk
Collins. He won't just freak out, he will be furious. I know we are just1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Ge19PDEVP
here to collaborate with you guys, but if those two like each other, I 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTSQPNJdLsC
would rather let them be."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNEzCY0RbD6
"Too bad," said Daesung behind me as I checked another studio room. "I wish it wasn't that way."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaOlTBbZ8YQ
As I backed away from 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYKZmXG8r9
the door, I bumped into Daesung who stood right behind me. I paused. I 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWPzqzijxyW
didn't want to turn around and look at him. I was leaning on his chest 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKEaGtGa58j
and immediately we had contact with each other, I felt a certain warmth 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9fVLp01zPF
spread throughout my body.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qTLVLmHxK
"Huh," I stepped to the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6rHL7va4pY
side feeling a little uncomfortable and I was blushing. I was staring at1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPMOsx2Ioq
the floor to avoid him noticing. I cleared my throat as I asked, "why 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp6il88UToP
do you say that?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeoYTgHCicF
"Well, I..." I noticed Daesung scratch the back of his head as he hesitated.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJzY39fOSPv
Was he trying to bring 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr3ibwgnT7t
out what happened between us at the park last week? It looked that way. I1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3VR5LVXztD
myself wasn't ready to talk about it. To be honest, I was terrified.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXA2D9lqK3
I looked up at Daesung 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPNjjnOm1B
and he looked back at me. I couldn't stop blushing for some reason and I1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWV2GLtQtJ
looked away again. I was afraid to look at him because if I did, I 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1rhSjjhj4
might just bring my guard down and start talking about our little 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoD8IhdKYoZ
incident at the park.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJIEytWq0JP
"We better get going and find those two lovebirds," I said, still not looking at Daesung.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGVIMMCWHh4
Daesung said nothing and1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2yzQKVCrQ
just nodded. I smiled at him and soon turned away walking down the hall1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkt50H1zJV4
and checking the other dance studios for any sign of Zoey and G-Dragon.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcH4P1tuQ4b
We were looking in one 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11E0oy4CzF
the last rooms down the hall when the door to the last studio room flew 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8h2zxC7f9
open and a group of trainees were coming out of the room.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGDRAivbjLv
They were happily 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSf5nfIwZEG
chattering amongst themselves. They were seven of them and I 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCDDPha1I9K
recognised.two of the trainees I had met earlier on when we first came 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI0Iyhvxm6M
here to YG, Soo Mi and Young Jin.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHY6cUQUuy
The trainees soon 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKsxUAjzGDv
noticed Daesung and I in the hall and they stopped with each of their 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBv5UJYhNA4
jaws dropping. Uh-oh. I knew that look. That was "oh my gosh my 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN1hPTQOPJJ
favourite idols is standing right in front of me" kind of look.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ36zyomFRMy
I was ready for the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQfuLxcvgeJ
screams and excitement coming my way. And when they did, I closed my 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAEE2SaKuY
eyes and I knew any second now, they would have Daesung and I 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3mhrUbwd5s
surrounded. Which they did.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0TopS7upe
"BK, what are you doing here?" Soo Mi asked as she looked excitedly at me.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlsiLrA5K4S
"Daesung and I came here looking for Zoey and G-Dragon," I said. "Have you seen them anywhere by any chance?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn0ebTZaWp6
"We saw them here a while ago," said Young Min. "They must have gone upstairs."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDeDpqq8p7S
"Oh, BK! Can we please 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hBGtZ4zvv
take a selfie with you and Daesung?" one of the trainees asked as he 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQL6WnA1VV
gave me a pleading look willing for me to give in. Which I always did.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegQfA9jCsf
"Ummm, okay, sure," I said with a smile. "We don't mind, do we?" I looked over at Daesung.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHgTYsmM86
He gave me the brightest smile and said, "no. With you, I don't mind anything."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ54egrY4bFf
The trainees around us 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF2SpKRe4ib
started to snicker and if it came to the three girls, they giggled. They1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP4PxVza5mv
obviously noticed how I blushed so quickly after what Daesung said. 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡciDuhIuFLI
Sometimes I wished cute guys would stop making me blush like a fool.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCyyjpfKopR
We all huddled up 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99cZdrZsh2
together to take a selfie. One of the trainees held up her phone to take1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhncaA5pNq
it and we smiled at the camera. I felt Daesung's hand on my back, down 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ftW4B6XJz
to my waist. That sent shivers down my spine. As though making me blush 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSL50kYoNzB
earlier wasn't enough. I tried to keep my smile intact as we took a few 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7RUGIYCFM
pics with the trainees.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxfbHRhXoOS
"Thank you so much," one of the male trainees said to me afterwards.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9sTD8IHBS
"You're welcome," I said, returning the smile and feeling a little relieved after Daesung removed his hand around my waist.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHJZdFfbfJ
"We better get going now," said Daesung.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvGOeI9SWBL
The trainees said their goodbyes and ran down the hall like excited little kids. I couldn't help but smile as I watched them go.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16eJ4KdYcr
"Awww! So cute," I said when they disappeared round a corner.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡooj0YdE8ku
"I know," said Daesung. "As though I was never like them once."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNPMgCaxf8
"I know that feeling. Reminds you of the old days, doesn't it?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSaPt6TX4n
"It does."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh392IDkkgS
I looked at Daesung and I1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0tsbqk9M7
could see in his eyes that he was lost in thought. He soon turned to 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM7Ov0QxhW3
look at me and I quickly looked away.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5mjRp3DzRQ
"Let's go upstairs, shall we?" I suggested.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9vNaQmGte
I turned and before I 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡinu7c7H288
could take a step further, I felt a grip on my hand. I turned to look at1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnSmnmpqNCc
Daesung and he stood so close to me.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0agU6IjlEH
"Wait, Sam," said Daesung. "We need to talk."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFibPJDuIk
This time he sounded 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ33jhBXMnpZ
serious and there was no way I was going to get away from him. Maybe it 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPeV2x94ZY
was time to talk about things. Who knows? Maybe it would do me some good1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkFcbfUZYH
and help clear things up.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW6QtyecXoz
"What is it?" I asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVsTtHZeSt
"It's about us, Sam."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xGuZmQjUA
I knew it. This was bound to happen. I tried to keep myself calm and in control.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWgv8VQRxiL
"Are you trying to talk about what happened at the park last week?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0rc6wOxNt
"Well, ya," Daesung nodded his head as he looked me in the eye.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxy8J2KzwAE
"Okay." I looked down to1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQia7gdVI0t
avoid his gaze. Looking him in the eye made me uncomfortable. I didn't 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXtzvIeIrvP
want to get lost in them. I leaned my back against the wall.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ96Nia4SLWA
"To be honest, I never stopped thinking about what happened to us that day."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtW8WGI7UV3
"Or what almost happened." I corrected him. "I haven't been able to forget about it either."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3bUx6iK1BS
We didn't say anything after that. The silence between us became so long and the empty hall added on to the effect dramatically.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQnOh7gn9Az
A strand of my hair fell1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlU1xwIxKiL
on my face and just before I could tuck it behind my ear, Daesung's 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMKurb9ktH
hand reached out and put it behind my ear. His fingers brushed across my1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmkS5iNjF4r
skin as he did so.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4koGuZHnbA
I gasped as I closed my 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyrz7ZPd7z
eyes. His touch sent shock waves through my body and for a moment, I 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hg9iYiOi8
felt a little light headed. His hand was warm against my skin and he 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡevwJs6ieXn
cupped my cheek with his hand.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡozgTxugGXN
I felt him drawing 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA1elbRjTnb
closer to me. I wasn't ready to open my eyes yet. I felt him lean his 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47Uamut0kI
forehead against mine and I slowly opened my eyes. I was looking 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wGO0VjvYz
directly in his eyes and again, I was so drawn to him like I had before.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡigLQQyeKYc
I continued to look at 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipiq8navih
him and I got lost. With him so close, I had never felt so alive and so 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKIVGDG72fN
safe. I had never felt like this before. With G-Dragon, I felt comfort, 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLrBb7HtRJv
with Daesung, it was something else all together.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbLyMaOnf4T
But this had to stop. I 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKy0LBNthq5
wasn't doing anyone any good. Not even for myself. As much as I wanted 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6S8pUfysk
Daesung, I had an ultimatum. Well, it felt more like it. We weren't 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4g07TgrV1e
meant to be together. And even though it felt right, I had to let it go.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDDJDBCAl4
I knew what I was about to do will make me regret later on. Call me bad, but I couldn't keep up with this charade any longer.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCRuuQD0co
I continued to look at 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6Z0PnHVUm
him and I held his hand that held my cheek. Daesung looked at me with a 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1AMvVxPAsQ
questioning look in his eyes. It looked like he knew something was 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4wVMEHaWsZ
wrong.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ96oTpMBK2r
"Hey? What's wrong?" he asked, gently.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXO1DKggZp
"I..." I paused before I could think of what to say next. "I can't do this, Daesung."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJAZQOnGBr
Daesung backed away a little but his hand never left my cheek.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrrOkhDneeF
"What are you saying?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGzhFfI7Ge4
"I don't want to keep hurting you anymore," I continued. "You know you and I can't be together."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOLsXM5PUV
"But don't you like me?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9kgF0PRUM6
"I do." I really meant what I said and saying those words made my heart break. "I really like you, Daesung."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kQfckdZAj
"Then why are you saying all of this to me?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe7BL9iQC5P
"I don't want to raise 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbiI1ZL1n1v
your hopes in a relationship that isn't going to last. I'm not going to 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDVcVCSvIw
stay here for long and as much as this is going to sound silly, I don't 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZ3Hp0WXAN
think all of this is going to work out."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVEdJoOekFV
"I know all that. But if G-Dragon and Zoey could be in a relationship, then why not us?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXiu7RebOg
I shook my head. "They 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWk086R1r4s
are different. Maybe it will work out for them. But you just agreed with1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxm1GevSAP
me just now that this might not work out for you and I."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0GWrscMYNC
Daesung sighed and with 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLfjzjl9z2j
his hand still on my cheek, I couldn't help but regret all of this. Here1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡclJjjQ7WdE
I was, with a chance of being happy with such a wonderful guy like him 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx6MhcoTHc0
but I couldn't due to so many things. Sometimes I wished I was never in 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFuCdFQcaRH
this awful situation.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrYeFI7Ozdm
"I understand, Sam," said Daesung. "And if that's what you want, then I'll respect your wishes."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhwTdJs2hV
I smiled at Daesung and 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ42dcWyQTx
out of the blue, Daesung came so close and quickly planted his lips on 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7aVFpBlqy0
mine. That was so unexpected and he quickly pulled away.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8eFLabJvv
I was shocked for a 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZp9fVFruSs
moment and I couldn't think straight. Stars and sparks flew in front of 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNAy9Gimv3e
my eyes like I had just got knocked out. That kiss was a total knockout 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2AG5q7J6Zo
all right. For a moment, I felt like I was dancing in the stars and I 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdpSZAD5VYb
didn't want to come crushing back down.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKjIRteLsm
I looked at Daesung 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0R6dLF9KzE
again and I realised that he had been looking at me the whole time. My 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4lUMPLH0FH
lips were still fuming hot and I wanted him to plant more kisses onto my1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGA4oQPATe8
lips.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8kfT0f6dJF
"Hey, guys," came Zoey's voice.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡln7d1I5Om9
Daesung stepped further 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlx29W9qRA4
away from me and I straightened myself from the wall. Down the hall 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjimDSTtQkz
stood Zoey and G-Dragon looking at Daesung and I.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdx6wO90xPQ
"Were we interrupting something?" Zoey asked as she raised her eyebrow at me and smiled mischievously.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2QYgCUWAT
I blushed. This was so not happening. Had they seen us kiss? I hope not. I crossed my fingers hoping for the best.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZbDIOaxpx
"We came here looking for you," I said.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVtJj2oKolH
"Oh, really?" G-Dragon asked. He had a look on his face that I couldn't even describe.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhSrrVgaEQM
"The music producer showed up and is waiting for us in the studio," said Daesung.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0QnWpuzQgx
"I figured he was back," said Zoey as she came over to us with G-Dragon.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2t24H5WVN
"We better get going then," I said as I looked down towards the floor.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPvdOM8L5a
"Mmmm," said Zoey. "Are you sure we didn't interrupt you two? Something was going on here before we came, right?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm2BbgfcL7e
"No," I said turning to Zoey with a frown. "We were just talking."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyqDESD5rD
"Talking or looking for us?" G-Dragon asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9pIJtZcRg
"Does that even matter?" Daesung asked. "Can we please just go back and finish the song?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLyevJ6gNhS
I turned around and started to walk down the hall and the others followed. Zoey caught up with me and nudged me on the shoulder.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQbrV1ns24
"You'll tell me later what happened, right?" Zoey whispered.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmvKWyCNcY
I hissed at her and 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzkVKPEwU4
rolled my eyes. She giggled and didn't say anything else. Looks like she1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOotHsuWqCx
and G-Dragon hadn't seen Daesung and I kiss. But they had seen us close1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWgk0blPDIK
together.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMRkGQXG14
We found ourselves back 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLuEJDOxeU3
at the studio and soon, we got to work on the back up vocals. I did my 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKDNVjPobyA
best to avoid Zoey and G-Dragon's gaze towards me. And I also made sure 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpP9Zd3lkf5
not to stay so close to Daesung.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJ1wBosana
As soon as we were done with the song and added a few modifications, we listened to the track and it was so good.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvf1zEek9lt
"Wow, amazing!" I said, after the track was done.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlpqYbDXDCf
Zoey was still humming to the tune, even after the track was done playing and she was snapping her fingers.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcY9tG6iHpT
"You're right, this tune is catchy," said Zoey.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡof4QQoP6ri
"I can't wait for the managers to hear this," said Taeyang. "They would be mind blown."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkE6h5gNuNf
"I'll take it up to them1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6ueOvNlRJ
in the office and make them listen to it," said the music producer as 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwrZaRbUNIR
he stood up with his laptop and USB in hand.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmauQwFlVVj
"We will be right here then," said Mike. "Unless we have better things to do."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhuHL5GdpU
I knew that was more of a1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzgvlOuHkMn
suggestion and I couldn't blame him. We were done with the song and the1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOXG0OyWKA3
least we could do is have fun before we could make plans for a music 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZg5YpEBLzj
video. 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqK0vtxVDlG
"Like chilling and having fun?" Christine asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAN1H7ncOFd
"Well, ya," said Mike giving Christine a wink.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEYvSgz4lxm
"Not so fast, guys," said Taeyang. "We can't just leave before the managers get here."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd09IZYaFiW
"He's right," I said. "Remember what happened when we left without them knowing last time?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ988JobHprQ
"I'll talk to them," said the music producer. "Who knows? They might just make plans for a music video."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopKDN8oMI4
"Ahh. So soon?" Zoey whined.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgCYMI3gESE
"I think it will be great," said TOP. "Won't our fans be expecting a music video?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbBsH6OyxIT
"I also agree," said Daniel. "It's a single and the fans are expecting a lot coming out from this collaboration."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxAlFWmZEe
The music producer soon left as we continued discussing over the music video.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzOrQOp6V01
"So, where do you think we should shoot it from?" Seungri asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSdN9sxZ7F
"This is difficult," said Zoey as she scratched her head.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhK5VaSPZ0A
"Why do you say that?" G-Dragon asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMu5EmXaQr
"Because it's a music video and it's always so hard to figure out what to portray for the viewers out there."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq9p1KhTYNf
"Ya, Zoey is right," I said. "I don't hate making music videos, but it's tougher than it looks."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5C9JdM8eaK
"And not only that, we have to work on the choreography too," said Mike.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4IQPRlVkEr
"You and I were supposed to work on that, you know?" said Taeyang, addressing Mike.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1AgQ3l4Vl
"We can start working on it right now, if you so like. I already have some ideas running in my head right now."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMcQ97Sm5tn
"Nooo!" Zoey exclaimed as she sat upright on the chair.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXnAjzMijx
We all turned to look at her. I wondered if she had hit her head or something today.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH76IdQv2mb
"What's wrong now?" Daesung asked rolling his eyes at her.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpbFBQZgcU
"Look guys, I know it's a1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYgKB7Jn1C6
good thing to talk about the music video and all, but can we do all 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMMoPQus4t6
that later and just go out and have fun?" Zoey suggested.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56KLMTH7BM
"We all want to go and have fun, Zoey," said Taeyang. "But I see no harm in talking about this first."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡedXLha8lwr
"You and Mike were just talking about working on the choreography just now."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6uvs8sKtpg
"So?" Taeyang, Mike and I asked at the same time.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITRyMQ3ZTT
"Can we just do all of that later? Like tomorrow?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoyF1SDOiuV
I rolled my eyes. "You can be so annoying sometimes, Zoey."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLLJQhxfSg
"So, I see you guys are already planning on your music video," came Lee's voice as she came into the room.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3SuhK0rXC
"Is that a good thing?" TOP asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOaSaeeSzz1
"Pretty much, yes," said Lee, nodding her head. "Because your managers are also planning on it."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ci3OXJRNF
"That's 'not' a good thing," said Zoey as her hand held her cheek.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrA3FbQ4Mn
Every one turned to Zoey. I wondered why she was acting so negative today. Oh, wait. Now I remember.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlSfER9tOiG
"You're so cranky today," said Christine. "That teddy still has you worked up."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGELeLEIRT
"You mean, this Mr Teddy?" Lee as she held up the little teddy in her hand.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFNTF7VAhga
"Ah!" Zoey covered her eyes and she jumped up from her seat. "Take that thing out of my sight!"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3C1mr0Nv0
"Oh my goodness, the drama queen is at it again," said Mike.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPxAOsPznq
"All I need is a day off," said Zoey as she rubbed her temples. "That is all I'm asking."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8TLIwHbnP8
"Ya, you're right," I said. "You really need to go and relax yourself and get this teddy bear shenanigans out of your head."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqI0jIU5lg
"Teddy bear 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31lAiPhiX4
shenanigans," said G-Dragon as he chuckled. Zoey gave him an angry stare1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPvxi1zQw10
and G-Dragon stopped and pulled himself together.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBwJXbrIoL
"Does that mean we have to get rid of the teddy bear then?" Lee asked as she looked at Mr Teddy.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRAkpgN7zR3
"No, it's fine, we can keep him," I said.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCAMk0LkwKz
"I don't want that teddy bear," said Zoey.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKbaxlBl3p
"All in favour of keeping the teddy?" Daniel asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYB5PBHEUA
Everyone in the room raised their hands, except Zoey.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4q1zlL4RID
"You guys are doing this just to taunt me," Zoey folded her arms and frowned.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2eQDWze6yJ
"Let me see if I can talk to the managers so that you can go out or else you would blow up this place," said Lee.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoGZQDBRcjz
"Please do," Zoey pleaded as she put her hands together.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe07rTf1Y1m
"That won't be necessary, Lee," said Collins as she came in the room with Yang Hyun-suk.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnnJi30wYY5
"Can we please go?" Zoey asked, looking at Collins with hopeful eyes.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOgHChQ0HU
"You can go," said Yang Hyun-suk. "You guys deserve it."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg6UVA6XdPE
Zoey sighed happily in relief and hugged G-Dragon who sat next to her. A lot of us were excited about it. Even me.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cJbnQVUNa
"So, are there any plans of making a music video?" I asked as I turned to look at the managers.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhCMTKK1u1C
"Well, yes," said Collins. "We will make a music video."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTnzS6xY1D6
"The single is too good for there not to be one," said Yang Hyun-suk.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXiJnHC1iQp
"You're right," said G-Dragon.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6CqhNgCED
"We were even talking about it just now," said Seungri.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhpxLeT0G99
"Good, so tomorrow, we 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohWtu0rrE7
would start looking at it and see what ideas you all have," said Yang 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfX32ZjDB0
Hyun-suk. "So, you can go out, have fun and get inspired."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHEjdJjtKQ
"Oh, we will alright," I said.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpt9nMNuAmc
Collins and Yang Hyun-suk bid us farewell and left. We now started to think about where we should go out today.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTPBWUdVEW
"I know where we should go," said Seungri.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQzTVUKR0Q
"Where?" Zoey and Mike asked at the same time.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUi333fKspK
"Why don't we all go bowling?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxIZ0JyCiT
"Bowling?" Christine, TOP and I now asked at the same time. That came out as a surprise.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVG7n83cYN
"Ya, it will be so much fun, just think about it."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmzgBuxSst
"Well, I don't think it's a bad idea," said Lee.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD8pkMzGBsT
"Ya, I think I haven't done anything competitive for a while," I said as I nodded my head.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq9FELFyxvG
"Apart from those little bets we used to do, you're right," said Daniel. "I'm ready for an 'in it to win it' situation."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡelqChxCEyT
"It's settled then," said Seungri. "We will go bowling."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm52odCSH0f
"What are we waiting for? Let's go," said Zoey excitedly.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2gfRwiD2qa
"I'll come along too," said Lee.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8kAMlrFBE
"That will be great," I said. "We might need you around."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKL6t0RN4zb
In an instant, all of us1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWWOQkvt3W
stood and started to walk out of the studio. Just as everyone had 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKfXZOyAaD
cleared out of the room and I was sure that I was the only one left, I 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8j3738uvt
was by the door when I quickly remembered that I had left my phone on 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcA6i9oOoSD
the couch.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOufqVOHGs
When I turned around to 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXZp4KGYMe
head back into the room, I stopped dead on my tracks when I saw G-Dragon1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DXnEhZMjG
standing there with my phone in his hand.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk4OME5A8TQ
"Coming back for this?" G-Dragon asked as he waved my phone in his hand.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLKZgHiimHU
"Uh, yes," I said as I approached him.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Ihq247VBO
Just as I got close to him, I made a hand for my phone but he drew his hand back. I raised an eyebrow at him.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNAg8OSp67b
"May I have my phone back, please?" I asked, my palm wide.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQfs0Xe7wsj
"You're such a hypocrite, Sam," said G-Dragon.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQEWpJH44l
I could feel my heart shatter when he said those words. Where did they come from all of the sudden?1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb66bdSuJuo
I shook my head, confused. "What do you mean by that?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1464LhGbKw
G-Dragon almost laughed 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWX4q5SxwBU
but a simple and mocking "ha!" came out of his mouth. "Don't start 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR8JVqGddjh
pretending now, Sam. You know exactly what I'm talking about. What were 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSAls8eT1F5
you and Daesung up to when Zoey and I found you two down in the hall? 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBhIAJDlNdV
Apart from looking for us, of course."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdw51icLJh
I blinked. What was I 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv84O7GOwoH
going to say now? I felt cornered when I knew I did nothing wrong. I 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnP5CK2HZkt
knew how G-Dragon must be feeling right now. Not after what he and I 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡop5Silt6sP
talked about yesterday at the park.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuqIm5SFLA1
"Aren't you going to say anything?" G-Dragon asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLsPMhiC1Lb
Still, no words came out1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzaILl2clA
of my mouth. Even if I tried to defend myself, he wasn't going to 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0hPSiI84QI
believe me. He was hurt and I could see it in his eyes.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkY0RZdCQHK
"Why are you quiet, Sam?" He took a step closer towards me. "Answer me."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVcLkhGJNX8
I closed my eyes, took a breath and opened my eyes. I looked directly in his eyes.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBGQjGG0utu
"You wouldn't believe me even if I told you," was all I could say.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0CwugWYdaO
G-Dragon looked at me 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUnZ822Txn
with disgust and pulled himself back away from me. He shook his head and1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzINKEPL5e0
seeing him look at me like that almost made me want to cry in torment. I1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFbzOISkKzv
could feel the tears in my eyes, ready to drop.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZhP6dwo1h
"Hey, what's keeping you two so long?" Lee appeared at the door.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgXfWIoimK
"Nothing. Sam, left her 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡioLVpDdL2h
phone and I was just about to bring it to her," said G-Dragon. He didn't1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZsm03e6jf
look angry like he had earlier on.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPhU176u8oe
"Okay, we are waiting for you," said Lee.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrPiKnwWNl
G-Dragon gave Lee a 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3FwcsgKVww
smile and gave my phone back without even saying a word. I took it 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNM0617bCP
without looking at him. I was too afraid to say anything and I didn't 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6iKiGTWq5Y
want him to notice my tears if they ever fell.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVBGKPQH7j
G-Dragon left the room and I was left alone with Lee, whom I hadn't even turned around to look at.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwihlwAL2fb
"Hey, are you okay?" Lee asked as I heard her coming closer behind me.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiqYMph7kv1
"Nothing, Lee," I said as I turned around to face her.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfLKunMniI
I could see her facial expression change as soon as she saw my face.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHAQSdxrBak
"Did you two argue, again?" Lee asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnddf9TmYKU
"I don't want to talk 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDF0lRFuhOP
about it." Surprisingly, no tear fell. I had to put up a show for 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg7Bn0ohQHb
everyone, but I was worried that I wasn't going to put up with it for 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWV2odflXFI
much longer.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRw0hdlxzNn
Lee didn't say anything.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWUrlXe7a9
That was one thing I really loved about her. She was not one to push 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQv4RmfYFvb
you to say things you don't want to say. She so understood.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhYw65kDh0Q
We went out of the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2sJbmU2OmV
studio together and met the others downstairs. They were all settled in 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvRiaN5P1PI
the two black SUVs. I just made sure not to go in the vehicle where 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVy9YenjI4
G-Dragon was.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGe6bGhTfLR
We went to a bowling 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK7J4p19PTE
alley in Gangnam. As soon as we all stepped out of the cars, a few faces1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9utrdKY6rI
turned our way. A few phones perked out of people's pockets and bags 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGG76DlEk4M
and a few photos were taken.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPzzT3Btps
As we went in the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMC8Kaq2NR
bowling alley at the counter to change our shoes to bowling shoes, we 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRjE5aD8nQ1
had already attracted so much attention to those who were already having1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB0HMzp2Il5
fun in the bowling alley.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfeCVCtM44
"Sam?" Lee called out to me as soon as I got the right bowling shoes for myself. I turned to look at her.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZauhHoTWo6
"What is it, Lee?" I asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIoCabUHQpI
Lee took me by the arm and dragged me further away from the others who were quickly changing their shoes.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPETDaF7f6O
"Are you sure you want 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7yNhNrsJW
to go through with this?" Lee whispered so as not to catch the attention1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8VwvAyDeeE
of the fans who were happily looking at us.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRxAvbQlnt
"With what?" I asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoaCnH3xfrx
"You being here. You can always leave. You don't have to stay, not after what happened with you and G-Dragon."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRAFiwU38g3
"Are you scared things might get a little out of control?" I raised an eyebrow.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2cDRVOfteZ
"Well, ya!" Lee nodded 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOIW9eiltB
her head frantically. "Who knows, he might just throw a bowling ball 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9CadgC3LO
over your head if not drop it on your toes."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxIXR4v7Llx
"Thanks for looking out 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ09cM6Z361t
for me, Lee. But I can't keep stalling these guys. I haven't really gone1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSeH7fmWygT
out with them for a while just to have fun. And when I leave, they will1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9xqa6pNgx
get suspicious."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe4hafgZdVL
Lee looked at me sadly 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUUVRWb7Us
but managed to put up a smile. "I know you're doing all this for the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFyJMGjR3k6
others, but you have to look out for yourself too."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHPWrvcYrv
"That's why I've you and the other Toxins, don't I, especially my brothers. I'll also try my best not to punch GD in the face."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0nXT5445Sl
"Fine. Let's go change into our bowling shoes."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFBgmtHUkYz
I smiled. Talking to Lee1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZBga1N5EU
gave me a lot of comfort. We went back to the shoe counter and changed 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLJA1luar7
into our bowling shoes. I also got myself some bowling gloves too.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyuzhDv0ajj
We joined the others at one of the bowling lanes and they were all getting ready for the game.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKz5IMqW3g
"So, how are we going to do this?" Taeyang asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEimIxImEF4
"Should we make it more like a competition?" Christine asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡODoyzFgxwb
"If it is a competition, the more fun it will be," said Seungri.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHpw9uTjF2O
"So, why don't we say BigBang verses The Toxins?" Lee suggested. "That already sounds fun."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSWgCiUG1a
"Cool," I said with a smile and my arms folded. "BigBang verses The Toxins."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUp8Dvf8WV
"You guys are going down!" Mike said with a mocking sneer.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCrQb3nYumv
"We will see about that," said TOP.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGFKYeoN1DR
"We have the best bowler in the house right here," said Daniel as he pointed at me.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUa5prwJmXu
"Really?" Daesung asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ869MxCoXuB
"Well, ya, I had practised bowling during my years in high school," I said. "It's been a while."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7BWABp3vE
"We will see if your bowling skills are as good as your singing," said G-Dragon with a smirk on his face.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4EW9DETI8y
"Ya, we will see," I said trying my best not to frown at him.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhwO5vyoInQ
"There has to be a prize for whoever wins," said Zoey.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡanC1Zn5uAZ
"But what's the prize going to be?" Lee asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNS9kbvl3TE
"I've an idea," said G-Dragon. "How about whichever team loses, does whatever the other team tells them to?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIjJwouvGC
I have always hated that kind of condition in a game. I wondered if he had set that up just because of me.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9wxkq3ujbC
"Deal," Zoey, Mike and Daniel said at the same time.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Ulx2Uu4Pp
Christine, Lee and I turned to look at them. "No!"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Ekr4XtKB4
"Why not?" Zoey shrugged. "It sounds okay to us."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUJKtctrnM
"But not to some of us," I said.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqIbPSQwTAz
"Guys, come on, it's just a game," said TOP. "I mean, we don't really have to take it seriously."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGCjG8ExO82
"I'm taking it seriously," said G-Dragon.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtjXJdIYONv
"Ya, me too," said Seungri.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaeReL1kLrS
"Me three," Mike said. "Please, Sam. Let's just do this. If we win, we can make the kings of k-pop do whatever we want."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6yF9MESa2q
"That's it then," I said as I snapped my fingers.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxsKP0ZxGaZ
"What?" the others asked as they looked at me.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRjgDNzbkqH
'"If The Toxins win, we 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtqf7nNc6K1
get to be the kings and queens of k-pop until we leave Korea. If we 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOMGDbyz3v
lose, we get to do whatever they want, considering that they are the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4nrfTwQ5R
kings of k-pop after all."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5Lss7lJK3
"Now you're talking," said Daniel rubbing his hands together.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9WH7JdO1q
"Come to think of it, I 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJSE2aykuck
wouldn't mind being the queen of k-pop for a while," said Christine as 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1FjE8L7PD
she smiled to herself and seem to be in her own thoughts.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwypjDbfRe
"Do you guys accept?" I asked as I looked over at the BigBang members.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJs9barOz5X
"Ya, I agree," said Taeyang.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAcCZPFiMFO
"Game on," said G-Dragon.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDaWjppDVw5
"May the best team win," I said.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrDJcgcqEI
I hadn't realised this 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU11U0tEAbf
sooner but when I turned around, there was a crowd of fans holding up 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1tLtP0PUD6
their phones taking pictures and videos of the whole thing. Oops. Looked1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrLTYWeZCQk
like they already knew the condition of the game and they were happily 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaSdpEAxY25
chattering about the whole thing.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZ5Xyokulh
"Jeez, I never noticed that there were so many people," said Lee.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwznwAoCFN
"And they must have 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwneitBXp1
heard everything," said Christine. "Will they be mad if we win and 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJvcIZK89P
become kings and queens of k-pop?" she asked as she lowered her voice.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5uUW1TahK
"It's only temporary and besides, it's just a joke, no biggie," I said as I shrugged my shoulders.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6DDwgD2jQ
"Okay, you guys get ready," said Lee. "I'll be recording your scores on the monitor."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmuGZuwRfGa
"These guys are in for a lovely treat," said Daesung as he turned to look at the fans.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdXHrzHGcTu
"Ya, because we're going to tear you apart," said Mike.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSpVzOyXtyF
Seungri waved a finger at him. "Not on our home turf."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR12oqO8zdE
"Just wait and see," said Christine. "In these kinds of situations, the underdogs always win."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5mqtuLvmPO
"We will see about that," said G-Dragon.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTd2InWmGQE
"Okay, guys," Lee called1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJpt4rlayPz
out to us from the game monitor and even the fans paid attention. "I 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8TzHDhqzI4
have set your team names in and you could see through the TV monitor 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Oh3QSVUqB
above you. The monitor is automatic, so it will be recording your 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNCWTKAKnX
scores. So, let the game begin."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGyd0AtvXJr
There was soon a round 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorevEDsRkj
of applause coming from the fans. It looked like they were enjoying this1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡotoiM7fUQQ
as though it was an international bowling game. When I thought we were 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4L9KHmFy3q
going to have fun, I wasn't expecting a huge crowd. I made a mental note1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPRibi2YRR
not to make Seungri choose which place to go to next time.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gHFSVP5r2
"BigBang, since it's your territory we're playing on, you will go first," said Lee.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmBZNVX84M5
"I'll go first," said G-Dragon. "Let me show you how a true leader does it."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmzesuMVDRu
I rolled my eyes at him 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkk5PNlbEmB
while the rest of my team stuck out their tongues at him like little 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpIIvxG5nhk
kids as we all took our seats on the bench.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwIKPRC9NO
G-Dragon got a red 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡonq1E8htH6
bowling ball from the ball rack and the crowd cheered for him and so did1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwjyWUkB9F
the rest of his team. He inserted his forefinger, middle finger and 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtqzabwS5zq
thumb into the inserts, the small holes on the bowling ball to grip it 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXG2kLqSARg
properly.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8RXTmkuUqR
He stood upright as he 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiTyaiqIMlq
faced the bowling lane, ready to run the ball down and strike the pins. I1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGHYifurdB
could see the concentration in his eyes as he looked towards the pins. I1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLDKvhbFSWg
just hoped he wasn't going to have a clear strike.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE9GCNHVHDa
With the ball held up on1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu2pFRz6LD8
his hands, he took a few steps forward with enough momentum to drive 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkUYuS3YXxR
the ball. As he bent downwards to release the ball, it rolled its way 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ02KBYhr4H8
down the lane with so much momentum that when it hit the ten pins, they 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIQE1023BHX
all fell.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxvZ7Ben9BZ
"Stttt-rike!" Lee yelled behind the gaming board.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FfDpVW0gj
Everyone cheered all 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsgcaA4RWd9
around us and G-Dragon smiled at the crowd and bowed as though he just 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8xEGplHGR
gave a show of his life. His team also cheered and they went round to 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ75HRRooddJ
hug him.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxcpJWzh8y
"That was a stunning 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgl9dObnVIm
strike from BigBang's one and only, G-Dragon," Lee announced from a 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPM5PxzrsH
microphone in front of her. I wonder where that came from.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt12Typ4y1y
"Yikes, that was good," said Mike, scratching his head. "Who's going to start for us?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljVKzUE2Yf
"I'll do it," I said, but Zoey held my shoulder before I could stand up from the bench.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRC3qybiDC5
"I'll do it," said Zoey.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQoE77aueOY
"Are you sure?" Christine asked. "I think Sam should start. She is good at this after all."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3hBWE3Qpw
"And she is the leader," said Daniel.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIevmd4RVRs
"No, I said I'll do it," said Zoey and she stood up and went to get a pink bowling ball from the ball rack.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqgjsyicN8o
She stood in the middle 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNttaFb2DhJ
of the running lane and held the ball up to her chin. She took a deep 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqR0jGxGIGE
breath and she stood upright. She took a few quick steps forward and 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuIdUNadPXV
released the ball.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLEgXggq3u8
The ball rolled and I 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyG7eF15bbs
had my fingers crossed and so did Christine. Mike and Daniel had their 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv18CwtLOvV
fingers in their mouths that I was afraid they would bite them off at 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQktq9A1X6
any moment.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcmeny8RlnS
Unfortunately, when Zoey's ball hit the pins, only six were knocked down. Bummer. Zoey shook her head.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJUV26EvhBy
An "oooh" came from the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNfXgpPGrq
crowd but they managed to clap and cheer for Zoey. She still had a 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUNN9wWsaaf
second ball and maybe we could get away with a spare.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAT57AvCnrC
Lee hissed in the microphone. "Ooh, that was unexpected. Will Zoey manage to get away with it with a spare?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXpah25Vyy
"Come on, Zoey, you can do this!" Daniel cheered as he clapped his hands.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQUhioljXG
The rest of us on the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlxNs2ovU0
bench cheered as Zoey rubbed her hands together and went back to the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTr28m6lSGn
ball rack to retrieve the pink bowling ball.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAxzwCGw57
She positioned herself 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyNCjk20GmT
on the running lane. She quickly took a few steps forwards and released 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuIcK0k6olK
the ball as she swung her arm downwards. And this time she knocked out 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKZewRrJj8
the remaining four balls.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfVpDoxIRvV
"YES!" Zoey jumped up 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Y1TcoXxNY
like she could just fly in the air. The rest of us on the bench also 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJHEe2pgJjS
jumped up celebrating and ran to hug Zoey. The rest of the crowd behind 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1nxTOrdVtq
us also cheered.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtP9nOCsArl
"Whoaaa! That was a close call and The Toxins have managed to get away with a spare!" Lee exclaimed excitedly in the microphone.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPYLnziKSeK
"I'm so glad you knocked out all the pins," said Daniel.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2EOI64vEl
"Let's just pray that they don't," said Christine looking over at BigBang.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7aADbhBKB
This time, it was 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4rGiMrNZ2x
Taeyang taking the second frame. We took our seats back on the bench and1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxwT2gnhhB
we all held each other's hand, hoping Taeyang might miss some pins.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQp0IvfnjT
But he didn't, and he 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wCfuMtCQu
got a clear good strike knocking down all the pins. There was a loud 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2D4eoa7BuT
cheer from the fans while some of us groaned in frustration. The BigBang1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBgx0R2Gmk
members ran over to Taeyang to hug him.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDaXVjl0ku0
"Another stunning strike1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemTgFQ6GkW
from BigBang's Taeyang," said Lee. "I wonder if The Toxins have 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLyMWF01hd
something up their sleeves to turn this game around."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQ57BaU9m9
"I'm going next," I said.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZnCoyD0uZ
"Please have a strike," said Zoey.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiohLoHuDPC
I nodded my head 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhNPhIWGKvz
assuring my team that I would, but I wasn't too sure of myself if I 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6EPH971sAJ
could. After what happened with G-Dragon back at the studio, I could 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWZLve9Edq
still had that negative effect in me. But I had to push those feelings 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxCgQv5gQpK
aside for the sake of my team.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMxauwNIUj
I stood up from the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJyfYY2XcTF
bench and the crowd cheered and there were others screaming my name. 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8d2OuCKTS
That gave me a little morale and I smiled as turned to look behind me.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLltqM5kj8a
I went to the ball rack 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2fwHJmSozZ
and and got a black ball with streaks of the colour purple. Somehow, the1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF2iH9MBWu6
ball looked to be covered with purple vapour around it.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3nCMqPQ0e
With the ball in hand, I1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhoIAZEMeM
inserted my fingers in the inserts. I went over to positon myself on 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjXY2qn8OVO
the lane and I held the ball up close.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaRHn3FiqUX
For a moment, time 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7N8j9TQc6C
stopped and I could feel myself shaking. What was wrong with me? I was 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEUKY1Opaw
scared. But why? Was it that there were so many people watching and I 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfgkZrk8vXu
was afraid I would mess up?1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEtUFAQ8i5S
Oh, maybe it's because of G-Dragon?1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxoDnU8FUsy
I tried my best to shake1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJofbxDRCyW
off the feeling and focus. I couldn't let this affect me. Maybe Lee was1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQqtmOy7bu
right. I wasn't supposed to be here. I was angry and frustrated with 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaKPRb4gz9T
myself. I was too frustrated that I had no idea how I was going to make 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZd8WbbmOgM
G-Dragon understand what happened between Daesung and me.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIssa8UqxHX
Don't let it get to you, Sam. There will be a time for that later. For now, just do what you do best.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY9cOzCCY0W
I don't know how or 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9NT5KcsbxK
where that voice came from, but it was like someone had whispered into 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡps0nIyfZhK
my ear, but I was definitely sure it was in my head.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvK4NXFJrR
I took a deep breath and1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wDo5O6F0u
I took quick steps forward as though I was sprinting and bent forward 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr0aqccrDZj
as I let the the ball loose from my grip and watched it roll.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJIRs4HSFVH
I watched the ball roll 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyTHKWr37LI
and for a moment, I couldn't tell if the ball was going at full 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLgGUe88WmZ
momentum. Everything seemed to be going in slow motion.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0RARDVXrJN
The next thing I knew, the ball hit the pins. All of them fell instantly. I couldn't believe my eyes.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJsfG7YmfMq
The next thing I knew, 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJLD9gOL5B
my whole team surrounded me and I was caught up in their hug. It was 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmm5KTSnmqG
then that the noise around me filled my ears. I hadn't noticed all the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOgkfDl0dq
noise. It felt like my ears were unblocked just there and then.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3VJm6jFsf
"AAAHHH!!!!" Zoey and Christine exclaimed, deafening me.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdzjp9LE7in
"You did it, Sam!" Mike exclaimed.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6offw9JKf
"I knew you still had it in you," said Daniel.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezyY3l2Q68
I was too speechless to even say anything. I was completely overwhelmed. And the crowd were cheering like crazy.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXR4AdC6Em
"I didn't know I still had it in me," I said as I tried to keep myself together and not let the emotions get the better of me.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslR9LQz0fl
"Let's not get too excited, guys," said Zoey. "Let's go and settle down."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQD38NViZb
"That was a stunning strike from the one and only BK. Let's see if BigBang can try to surpass them," said Lee.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlKLkDhde8I
I looked up at the score1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8z0BTliYS
board. We were ahead of them with a lot more points than I expected. If1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlYOasP9g4
we could get another strike and maybe even a couple of spares, we may 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KiMWaAYd2
win this for sure.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKVisHtxmS
Seungri came up for the third frame. He took a white and black bowling ball and got himself ready.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpcHwmSmHB
This time Seungri 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCDDGFPe9B
managed to hit only four pins. That was a relief. But he still had a 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2umLnYGyM5
spare and if he managed to bring the other six down, he might get away 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS6AfduT773
with it.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO0RJbkQn2p
Seungri went over to the ball rack and got his ball. This time, I was praying he wouldn't knock down all the pins.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FRjRpf0gF
"I hope he doesn't knock them all down," Zoey whispered in my ear.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4GVTndKTkS
"Me too," I whispered back.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ZQd1INgu2
Seungri relaxed his 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPE4Q7neBM
shoulders and took a deep breath before he could release the ball. When 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNzLeiAKoz
he did, he ended up hitting them all.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Z10RXqmRg
I groaned as I buried my1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6RAzj5xDVD
head in my hands while the crowd and the rest of the fans cheered 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjiwcYapmyb
behind us. The BigBang members also cheered.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuEzivBnUos
"Whoa, looks like BigBang are banging on the door now," said Lee. "How will The Toxins respond to that?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡozAyUhl3vH
"Okay, I'm going next," said Christine. "I'll show them."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyose7Cn60M
"Ya, you go, girl!" Zoey cheered for Christine as she stood up from the bench and went over to get a yellow bowling ball.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡonYwFXLJDh
After relaxing herself 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5iluoO1hAV
and twisting her neck to release the knots, Christine took a deep breath1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3tTmtxlyO8
and sprinted forward. She released the ball just in time before the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV3eM5O9eJx
foul line because if she did, the throw would have been a foul and it 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGUQLfo96n
wouldn't count. But that wasn't the best part.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBxMleygSIz
"A double for The 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5Zk8cCZvN
Toxins! These guys are now on fire," said Lee as cheers filled the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvbeJN9wi9
bowling alley and we went over to hug Christine.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDU4IrdWnT8
"That was awesome! A double strike," said Zoey.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsomyRLsIVe
"We might just win this all the way," said Mike as he looked up at the score board.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgxntYPWTQ
"Hopefully, we would," I said.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUeN0qx1NcG
TOP came up for the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwtGXqo5NZ
fourth frame and this time, my team and I had our arms outstretched and 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAiOPG7jx4Q
wiggling our fingers, as though we were a group of witches and wizards 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYlho4j6T3h
trying to jinx TOP to miss a few pins. We were all muttering shambolic 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbW8reagT6v
words as though we were casting spells. A few fans behind us laughed at 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrWMfyi9YKQ
the incident.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZpBrlkP6oq
"Stop doing that," G-Dragon snapped at us.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvTsFzrbPtL
"Why?" Zoey asked. "I bet you were also praying for us to miss too."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIbDkCbkXM
"You're making it too obvious," said Taeyang.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKZYna6UHC
"Maybe if we do, things might go in our favour," I said.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjUe9hYkCz
"We'll see about that," said G-Dragon as he frowned at us. But I was pretty sure that that frown was meant for me.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsy6DFy6pLP
TOP only laughed as he 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNHGvcohC1N
looked at us and turned to look ahead of him again, towards the bowling 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqiSjNT46K
pins. He held the white bowling ball in his hand and sprinted forward 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgUaDzYvOKT
and let the ball roll. Unfortunately for us, he got a strike.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs5qHkgCCoQ
"BigBang with a strike!"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWLkAjfKZJP
Lee announced as there were cheers around us. "These guys are banging 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvv177O43yl
for victory and they look like they aren't giving in."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5teHYV3G4
"For a second there, I thought he was going to miss," said Daniel.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOoZiiSEss
"Well, you thought wrong," said TOP as he stood in front of us with a huge smile on his face. "We're so winning this."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtSJOQuoMj
"Don't be too confident," I said as I looked up at TOP. "Someone might chip off your wings and you will come crushing down."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡANmT0zhkzX
"If it means crushing down for you, I would, my lovely jagiya," said TOP as he bended over me that he was so close.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpss7Kx8cCP
There was a playful 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHK8FQDFRvH
"whooo!" coming from the ladies behind us. I couldn't help but blush and1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd3EiJzGwP3
I looked away. Mike and Daniel growled as though they were about to 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJIJvOD95F
tear TOP apart like wolves.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWuym45pOz
"Awww! It's getting hot 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYrXB1DjHhH
in here," said Lee as she raised her eyebrows towards TOP and I. "So 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJJYANhSdW
cute. You're making some of us jealous."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnnaquMq1QH
At the corner of my eye, I noticed G-Dragon's angry stare towards us. I pretended not to notice.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkCH79jlkbd
"Come on, guys," said Mike. "Let's keep our head in the game. I'm going next."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHAN2lf6Qd9
"All the best," said TOP as he went over to sit with his team.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7dThz8Iw5q
Mike mimicked him as he 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhPM4d6aOqV
got up from the bench and took a sky blue bowling ball. He went over to 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJre3GRlqj
stand in the middle of the lane and after preparing himself, he sprinted1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzr73Nlrwr
forward and let the ball roll. When the ball hit the pins, three pins 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8eYHBBB3zl
remained standing. One on the left, the other two on the right.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8dXo53rtwo
"OMG, a split," I said as I looked onwards at the pins.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRiZH6TfxAD
"Dang it!" Mike muttered as he stomped his foot on the floor.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlgSpobuzIw
For a moment, there was 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiduES9Eu8V
murmuring in the crowd and I knew what they were thinking. Was Mike 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvUw5Je8fQd
going to be able to do it? It was a split after all and not everyone who1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjfVGjmcsbj
played bowling ever got away with it. That's if you weren't a 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFTdLDfCJY
professional bowler.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT69lhuCDvm
"Wow, a split. This is going to be interesting," said Lee.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfMZFM6l2GI
My team and I turned to look at Lee with frowns on our faces. Lee shrugged. She was clearly not helping.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8sjJdL7pn
"I would love to see you guys get away with this one," said G-Dragon.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7vNehr6KDu
"Oh, shut up," said Zoey waving her hand at him.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQkb55EJSU
I turned to Mike, completely ignoring G-Dragon and his team.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLtn5NHYXZ
"Listen, Mike, don't panic, okay?" I said to him.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6fSL9gJKF6
Mike stood still as he looked at me, took a deep breath and said, "okay, not to panic. Got it."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR5hYcWRV45
"Go for the ones to the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9VlaPPI8C
left first," I said. "With the ball going at full momentum it might just1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEEADUNvdnH
let one of the pins go to the other side and knock the remaining pin 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5rlGgKPvlR
down."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTr0vT7zxy0
"You're sure?"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgI1uAAe7uj
"I wouldn't trust her if I were you," G-Dragon said to Mike with a smirk on his face.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw22WARhcm7
I looked at G-Dragon and1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcUdDi38OOQ
I could clearly see that he was really going at me right now. Other 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBipCChbX3Z
people might think all of this as playful trash talk, but only he, Lee 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3W4JyeWBbz
and I knew it was something completely out of the ordinary.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVOGATab3o
"Trust me, Mike," I said as I turned to look at my brother.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0glNhq6X51
With full confidence, he nodded his head and went over to the ball rack and got the blue bowling ball he had used before.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1MUDZQuxK
He went to the middle of1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwiiVoqV4c
the lane and had the ball held up in both hands. He sprinted forward, 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWqtgSwIfK
and with his right hand, let the ball roll. This time, it wasn't rolling1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN04YitFwBb
down the middle but to the left side at full speed. In the end, the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡivoYdrnEJ6
ball hit the two pins on the left and one of the pins flew to the right 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDvGqJPmk3
side knocking the other down.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp1BlwUluHQ
There was a loud cheer 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADMhsVW15e
like never before in the bowling alley. And the next thing I knew, I had1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ54PMGsjeWl
fallen off the bench with my back on the floor because Mike quickly ran1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkcsmjQ79F
straight to hug me and we both fell over. The other Toxins followed and1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5L4GEvCmC
the next thing we knew, we were all piled up on top of each other.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvUcMktWud
"We did it!" Mike exclaimed.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezIGJ9kUWE
"Get off me, guys! 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaYUo9AYzQX
You're all so heavy!" I exclaimed. I couldn't take the weight of the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNncfqBZ7OJ
others and they were crashing me like a bug.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡidzJ06xrx6
One by one, they all 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSPfpjQc1fJ
stood up and Mike and Daniel slowly pulled me up. There were still 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaSec4Gm620
cheers coming from the crowd. Mike had done me so proud by finishing off1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWpFAEXJwOg
that split and had also impressed everyone else too. I doubt if I could1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDhForaM8lS
have done better than he did.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb0fX3z3FW2
"What a way to complete a spare from The Toxins!" said Lee through the mic. "That got everyone wild. What a stunner!"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCKoWNRIegI
"You did it, Mike!" I said as I hugged him. "I'm so proud of you. Mum and dad would too."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVlFcdGSK0J
"It's because I listened to you," said Mike with a smile. "You're the best!"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOeboXDT6Ak
"How did you know how to finish off a split?" Zoey asked me.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8aQCQsgBpa
"I was taught from the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcthOJN1QoN
best," I said. "Though I was never successful during my practise days to1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSp5DZRrwB7
finish it off. Sometimes it takes a little bit of luck to do that."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPQoQNQQ9v
"What do you think about that now?" Christine asked as she addressed the BigBang members.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWoIdxtlFfB
"I'll admit, that was pretty good," said Daesung.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlm5R65P9JJ
"Yep, that was just incredible," said Seungri.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3MYq9y39u
"Stunning," said TOP.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMICHXiEym
"Let's just move on, shall we?" G-Dragon asked as he rolled his eyes at us.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHR2p1W8QPo
We all went back on our bench and tried to keep it cool, but the excitement couldn't leave our faces.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQkNMlOHUM
Daesung came up next and1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGnotzd0Fe
took a black bowling ball from the bowling rack. He got himself ready 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6mE2wczBJ
to bowl and when he did he knocked out all the pins except for one.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHhplKCBCL
"Ah, shoot!" Daesung muttered to himself.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2tDOkPfD7T
"Don't worry, Daesung you can do it!" Seungri cheered for him.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjcuyotU5cF
No one on our side said 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡthJ14alBqa
anything. The worst thing you could possibly do is cast an evil eye on 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM5ja3nGxRX
the ball and make it go the other way. Though I was praying that Daesung1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8q0qa7d7P
should miss the last pin.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoGl3fcQtm2
After Daesung got his 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDtYOt8ZSv
ball, and let it roll, I closed my eyes, hoping that if I did, I might 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpUTNlYPb5Z
just get the surprise of my life. But I didn't. He hit the last pin and 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvP0F9g0cUx
there was a loud cheer from the crowd.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpzcoXs7gi7
"Okay, my turn," said Daniel. "I hope I get a strike."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZK9jRw1dZA
"You can do this bro!" Mike cheered for his brother.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwDcWjjzwr
Daniel got a green 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWwxvjOwvUN
bowling ball and got himself ready to roll the ball. When he did, the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ40yrsU1Wx8
ball rolled down the middle and even though it wasn't going as fast as I1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFqaAMq41s
had expected it to, all the pins got knocked down.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYOccmwg7Z
"Strike!" Lee exclaimed. "That was brillant from The Toxins!"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUoqnTZZYUZ
My team and I ran to hug1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxU24dCnNu
Daniel and praised him saying that he had done a good job. As for 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS0VYplo28c
Daniel, he still couldn't believe that he got away with a strike.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKcEWE5X4E
We were in the sixth frame now and G-Dragon came up again, following the same sequence as before.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1JLjx9dK4
This time, when G-Dragon rolled the ball, he got another strike. Good for him.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGdPiOv24G
Zoey came up and this 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoln6IWjlEa
time, she got away with a strike. She was on top of the world and 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzxkayVPpz
couldn't stop cheering and dancing around, that Christine and I had to 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3uC2yc94ij
drag her back to the bench.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1nCPvD9jNR
It was Taeyang's turn and apparently he got away with a strike too. He was really good. Hats off to that one.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijbOiGaKj6
It was now my turn, but then, Daniel stopped me by grabbing my hand as I stood up.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkCxGHItocw
"What is it Daniel?" I asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGAzZ138kl1
"May I take this one?" he asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOA7egHCdXo
"But why? It's my turn."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSesFIe1m0q
"I know. I just don't want to take the last frame, if you know what I mean."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡccR7J3iE7D
I knew exactly what he 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8xZgGH4Ium
meant. The person who takes the last frame takes three balls. The last 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa2rKrQ8UW4
frame was the most crucial part in the game.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwRkUJI6gR
"You want us to swap?" I asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKXgZML4Xq
"Ya. Let me take this one, please?" Daniel asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBaTyuMkQin
"Okay, fine," I said as I went back down on the bench and he got up.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡit8mLVifAd
Daniel knocked down seven pins with his first ball but managed to go away with a spare with his second.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqrjVe4mSF
It was TOP's turn and this time, he only managed to hit five pins with his first ball and the other five with his second.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNQ9oLCgbX
Mike however managed to get away with a strike. He was on top of the world today.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYUHEBf6AC
Seungri came up for the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfelzPr7yI
ninth frame and this time he managed to knock down seven pins with his 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo8cx9S7UDa
first ball and the three with his second.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUehGTM7yo
Christine came up and and knocked out six pins. With her second ball she just knocked out one pin. That was a bummer.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEZdABeEjk5
"Oh gosh!" Zoey and I muttered at the same time.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbZ9NvwTDQ
"Ah, oh," said Lee. "That's going to affect the scores."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZUOFsm8jP
I hope not because we 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6dxIdsnj9y
were now heading to the last frame and that meant three balls had to be 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYs9bshwLC
played. Yikes, I was shaking this time. How I wished I never decided to 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkIfh3XTgUZ
take up the tenth frame.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOiVgRLNzXl
Daesung stood up from the bench and I could tell he was nervous as I was.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrGtu3Qkhh
He took the black bowling ball and soon rolled the ball. He had a strike and the crowd behind us cheered.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtRUiSryhkO
With his second ball, he only got to knock out eight pins. With his third ball he knocked out the remaining two pins.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrcKTJwY7zK
There was a loud cheer 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtdyWhdGTo
from the crowd and I looked up at the score board. Because Christine 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg04Gzxzb28
only knocked out seven pins, the only way to win this was if I could get1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZpEzNrHf8J
away with three strikes. Which was difficult. And pretty terrifying.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy2MMOzqjEd
I stood up from the bench and Daesung looked over at me.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VZSDgBf8w
"All the best, Sam," he said.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrw8zObTF1g
"Th-thanks," I said as 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5HsY5IFFpK
looked to the floor and tucked a strand of my hair and went over to get 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vNfzh7dcx
the black bowling ball with streaks of purple on it.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3MvN7VGCYF
I took a deep breath 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnm65Ceea7H
when I positioned myself on the lane. When I got to sprint forward and 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUn0tuJTRr
let the ball roll, I closed my eyes, not hoping to see if I would knock 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaRWAyjPuvd
down the pins or not.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZokIBJzTty
There was a loud 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOBrG8pQNsv
thundering cheering behind me that for a moment, I thought the ground 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDv7yOVo9AK
was shaking. I opened my eyes and in front of me, down the bowling lane,1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhsqq8CGXzT
the pins had been knocked down.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyekRjgKq2y
I got ready for the second ball and using the same ball, I let it roll. Again, another strike.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLicTt5q47n
My team and the rest of the crowd cheered.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLeHgJHvQqH
I shook my hands and tried to relax myself for the last ball. If I had another strike we might just win the game.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOhd71rhcp
I got the ball again and1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG8uwe4Lemw
this time, everyone was silent. This felt like the finale, which it 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DS19MCLlK
was, and I was kind of terrified. What if I missed it?1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWRECEOFzrF
I shook that negative thought out of my head, took a deep breath and focused ahead of me towards the pins.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8SEHbhFNx
I sprinted forward and 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMrE4vN2DPr
just as I released the ball, things went in slow motion. The ball went 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3u4rJqOC2
down to the left side. That made my heart skip a beat. This was it. It 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5QHsKISX6U
was already over for me and my team.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxOuwE7JKr
When the ball hit the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMsqFFkes6
pins on the left side, the pins dropped and one by one, they fell like 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJKbvevIch9
dominoes. When all the pins had dropped,the last one that remained was 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjEXcgnV1wR
toppling from side to side. I prayed that it will fall over.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJxMPpyfEYK
It did.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv2D2EgBjSO
And I screamed like crazy.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcyItYTnLY4
"They have done it! The 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFifUkNJYHO
Toxins win! The score, The Toxins, 208, and BigBang, 206!" Lee exclaimed1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPRV6rkZhdz
so loudly in the microphone through the noisy cheers coming from the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIYNTxgE7v
crowd.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuwz0fefJJ6
Confetti rained down on 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqws0RAH8w
me from no where and for a moment I felt like I was caught in my own 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxQnCk3RMF
fairytale. Then my whole team surrounded me and we found ourselves in a 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKf8M2pOpI
circle hugging each other and jumping up and down.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwmxLRhsMw
"You did it, Sam!" Mike exclaimed loud enough to hear him.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRgDYKTEyLH
"I know, right!" I exclaimed so happily.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlkiHi4IZT
"Do you know what this means? We're the kings and queens of k-pop!" Christine exclaimed so loudly.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2k9Vq4ZAv
"WHOOOHOOO!" Zoey exclaimed loudly, raising her arm in the air.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOouHqk9DET
"Congrats, Sam!" Taeyang came to break us up to hug me.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmsmB2VZD2
"Thanks," I said with a smile.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfeQ978rALL
TOP, Daesung and Seungri1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡymIUqdSc53
also came to congratulate us and we ended up celebrating together. It 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6C1uuW25pg
didn't matter who won the game, as long as we had a hell lot of fun.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimDgRRLnon
G-Dragon and Lee had came up to us and Lee pulled me into a hug. G-Dragon had gone over to congratulate Zoey and the others.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2lmqpq7Ma4
"You were awesome out there," said Lee as she looked at me. "You guys did it!"1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2yWBOnjZLe
"To be honest, I was pretty scared," I said.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJc1aFy96O
"But despite all that 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAYdNYN3RRF
was going on with you and GD, you kept your head in the game and kept 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlAWLpIYea8
your team going. On that, you really impressed me."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5JIRh52yOa
Lee hugged me again and 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgP2Gi4kiU1
the place was full of flashing cameras. Not just from the fans, the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF54yTXVvA8
paparazzi were here as well. I had barely even noticed them.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYvilsv8Zbx
"Congrats, Sam," came G-Dragon.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVEM4arCivS
Lee pulled herself away 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGqSVOidZq
from me and went over to the others to celebrate with them. I turned to 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPRuUu6PoQk
look at G-Dragon with a smile on my face.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs9rpAeAoKu
"Thanks," I managed to say. "You guys also played well."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUzDzuuULf
"Well, we were just having fun."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kOykuZNBD
"Ya, we were."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyDeX8RE2Z
We stood silent looking good at each other and still happy cheers filled the place and the cameras were flashing like crazy.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvr4vajSA4N
"About what happened with Daesung and I back at YG, it's not what you think."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRvkrZOsZdM
"Save it, Sam," said G-Dragon. "Now isn't the time to talk about it. It's time to celebrate."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡghJP2lhcSK
I could tell that he was1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCXoswRBIcx
clearly trying to avoid the topic and he still had that hate for me in 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmZLaIsuwV
his eyes. It was going to be completely hard to convince him now. And 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuIfZh2S4AD
things weren't going to be the same between us after this.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu87nY4S30I
"You know, you really 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSkuQAGaLhT
are full of surprises, Sam," he continued. "You ended up winning the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbx6j4KtkP
game with three strikes in a roll. And also you're one big hypocrite."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzx9DxeOa3
I felt my face turn pale by those words and I looked down on the floor feeling bad for myself.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡun7CRJGs9Y
"You guys!" Zoey called as she came over to us. "The owners of this bowling alley would like to take a few pictures with us."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ADPSFI0jj
"Okay, sure," said G-Dragon as he walked away and joined the others. As for me, I hadn't said a word.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQY9i8xxJdE
"Hey, are you okay?" Zoey asked.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIK8VrCE6yS
"I'm fine," I said, hoping that Zoey wouldn't notice my sad face.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡguLI8C33Ts
"You don't have to lie to me. Something is going on between the two of you and I want to know what."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4RU8K4Oe7H
"It's no big deal, Zoey."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8W65e3bKL
"Well, it is to me. The 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1sz3DY13tb
person I love the most is sad and you're not telling get me what's up. 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GYQGUJa4w
You and I have a lot of talking to do when we get back to the hotel. For1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8BQcX8dMNb
now, smile, because we had so much fun and we won. We also have to get 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohjDAZu8Bm
our pictures taken."1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDftEGFZFfA
Zoey could be so 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLUWhZL9vB
melodramatic sometimes. But that's one of the reasons why she is my best1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGschNr47ix
friend. But telling her what's going on, means telling her the truth as1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4OWEVfNfXJ
well. And that would crush her.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9uqeyonS8e
I don't know if there 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSisugOXXA
was any way I could fix what was broken between G-Dragon and I. Because 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1nUjyfE1Mc
it now felt like things had come to a point where he could no longer 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTe1gmIwe4e
trust me anymore.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZdXlRcJ91
As G-Dragon and I stood 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEpTdMGHwJb
next to each other to have a group picture taken with the owners of the 1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLeY7cPrwiS
bowling alley, I felt there was something odd between us.1011Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTN1hJezPsO
Like the atmosphere in the place had suddenly gone cold.
