Sunday was quiet and 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAxvYfyowdhl
pretty not much the same when you know that your best friend isn't 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAK6xaPLGiUX
talking to you anymore. As much as I would have liked to bring up any 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAxTicSnr0fE
random topic just for Zoey to talk to me, I knew she wouldn't respond or1177Please respect copyright.PENANArALHFMmHip
listen. She wouldn't even stay in the same room with me.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAMDSdjwgEsy
Last night, Zoey moved 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA3H4LnDyZN7
out from our room and since we booked the entire floor, she went over to1177Please respect copyright.PENANAOXA5tGt0VV
the other room, far away from me. I couldn't blame her though and I 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAWSv49MbPyV
didn't even try to talk her out of it. No one even bothered to try and 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAdM7EQ0lHdr
talk to her either.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAApa1DKIWxT
And so did Collins, who had no idea what was going on.1177Please respect copyright.PENANABoUxJQc6ed
It so happened that 1177Please respect copyright.PENANARGQz4Sg3Vl
while Zoey was moving out of our room with some of her personal 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAVxmtA4CAzX
belongings, Collins appeared out of the elevator. He had asked her what 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA1pvprypONr
was going on and as usual, when Zoey is upset, she hardly talks to 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAgkEr1qMzWN
anyone. When Collins asked the rest of us what was going on, I told him 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAVMxrUoMG9b
that Zoey and I had an argument. With that, he didn't ask any more.1177Please respect copyright.PENANADhdZC8M9jj
Now, I was sitting 1177Please respect copyright.PENANApk7TNzFShA
lazily on the couch in the lounge on a Sunday, trying to see anything 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAiQBmkztB3p
interesting to watch on YouTube so as to pass time since my brothers had1177Please respect copyright.PENANANsgle0ouas
now taken control of the TV playing Call of Duty. I did enjoy myself 1177Please respect copyright.PENANACi8MwYXgYB
watching k-pop music videos with the likes of BTS, EXO and many others.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA9JtA1lme9o
I was lying down in a sleeping position, still watching videos when Lee came into the lounge.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAT696GtkTPu
"Are you just going to sit there the whole day like a lazy bum?" Lee asked as she came over to me.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAnn1XdYQsmv
"What?" I asked as I removed an earpiece from my ear. I heard her loud and clear even with my earpieces on.1177Please respect copyright.PENANApR5fO6LkjD
"You heard me," said Lee looking down on me, with an annoying look on her face. "Are you going to sit here the whole day?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANA8Av4DeRklu
"Uh, ya," I nodded my head and put the earpiece back in my ear.1177Please respect copyright.PENANACZNRC7XNLM
"Get up, let's go," said Lee as she pushed my legs and they dropped from the couch to the floor.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA6DZXPP5i2x
"Lee!" I whined, putting1177Please respect copyright.PENANAHAWypu0HcJ
my feet back up on the couch. Daniel and Mike who were on the floor 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAlQ3mocsl6K
facing the TV, turned to look at Lee and I, pausing their game.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAFbkV8gXDal
"This isn't like you, Sam," said Lee, dropping my feet again. "You need to go out and have fun. It's Sunday."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAK8GzS7qxGe
"But I want to be here and watch videos on YouTube," I said as I sat upright.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAqG6XbVw30S
"No buts, Sam. We're going out whether you like it or not."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAFY2Xx8mCFG
"Why? I want to stay here."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAeWedJyelMx
"I need to go and shop 1177Please respect copyright.PENANATmI5tePpYO
for a few things and I think it will do you a lot of good too. Not after1177Please respect copyright.PENANAiUuwPorSvT
what happened yesterday. I can tell you need a distraction."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAEnfO62qYbC
"But watching YouTube 1177Please respect copyright.PENANABzdpVAdpaT
videos is the perfect distraction if you ask me. Besides, you should 1177Please respect copyright.PENANABXQQx8KfVZ
check out these other k-pop artists and groups. They are so awesome."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAhye4qddY8k
Lee turned to my brothers who still had their eyes on us the entire time. "Help me out here, guys. What should I do?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANASkTcArZDAJ
"I think Lee is right, 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAbbWEh9AHhE
Sam," said Daniel. "We all aren't busy today and you usually like going 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAOw0WJl1Jah
out on Sundays like you do back home."1177Please respect copyright.PENANA4SIkzBVVsI
"But what's wrong with staying here for a while and do nothing but watch videos?" I asked, looking at my brothers.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAfDWCKbyNmk
"I know you're a fan of 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAxg7OwEmwhT
YouTube but the Sam I know wouldn't be here lazing around after what 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAElza9N8UZs
happened with G-Dragon and Zoey," said Mike.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAx3IZkayrQs
"So, what you're trying to say is that I've to try and figure out what to do with those two?" I asked.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA8r8aZFumIs
"Well, that's what 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAKVmMroRcn8
you're good at," said Daniel. "You did say you were going to try and 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA8fI3s9KU36
resolve things with Zoey. You usually come up with ideas to do so."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAuOxQoZgQA6
"But that's when I decide to go out somewhere and think."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAOuTSBU7JSY
"That's what we are 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAiwviILbzcP
telling you, Sam. Start thinking things out or else at the end of it 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAGcRPLEWLwj
all, we won't be able to make the music video. Not with Zoey acting like1177Please respect copyright.PENANAYk5XzmSWBe
the goddess of wrath and G-Dragon still mad at you."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAusFrHcjmpe
Daniel's right. I had to1177Please respect copyright.PENANAsQafqC9jyT
figure out what to do with those two and me sitting here wasn't going 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAyWjiHY40Hu
to solve anything. But how could I tell them that there were now other 1177Please respect copyright.PENANATPbVOiaxvW
problems to deal with? Like Zoey and Derrick's brother for example?1177Please respect copyright.PENANA5tZP0HiENa
Unlike the others, Lee 1177Please respect copyright.PENANADQM91ZRtnt
was the only person whom I told about what happened when I left YG 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAdHaeXxQYKo
yesterday to meet with Derrick who told me what had been going on with 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAJOIJVACN4k
Zoey and his brother. And right now, dealing with Derrick's brother was 1177Please respect copyright.PENANARAjFrFj9ZR
going to be a lot tougher than trying to sort things out with G-Dragon 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAIAU9cqJFBl
and Zoey together.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA3fvgOo7NTv
I really wanted to tell 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAhoG6LXfH2Y
these guys what was going on. Besides, they were there with Zoey in 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAVtgeYYvVnt
Paris and they might have some clue as to what was really going on. But I1177Please respect copyright.PENANAMbjFAOEflX
didn't want to worry them. Not yet, at least. I had already put them 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAcIfjhaVU3y
through a lot because of my secrets and I was doing so all over again. 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA1SmYdXTozo
When was I ever going to change?1177Please respect copyright.PENANAw6nva2pgri
"Okay, I'll go," I said as I stood up. "You're right. I have to think of something, and fast."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAI7o2qu2MTA
"Great," said Lee. "Now, go get your shoes. Collins isn't around so we can stay out for as long as we want."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAO2g2J3D174
"Has anyone seen Christine?" Daniel asked.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAhbkaC8yx29
"She is with Zoey," said Mike, rolling his eyes as he mentioned Zoey's name. "They are probably in the room talking."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAyEM586vP85
"Hopefully, Christine would be able to convince Zoey to forgive me," I said.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA6bWA5ySYfi
Lee, Mike and Daniel 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA2ON1apeD2J
shook their heads and muttered out words of disapproval. I didn't say 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA0r6efg6AnG
anything, as I also shook my head. I went out of the lounge, straight to1177Please respect copyright.PENANABNwnoURk30
my room to get my shoes.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAaBtWaefWCN
After I wore my white 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA2q3wZ5VTlN
pumps to match with my white jeans and purple tank top, I took my purse 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAbYHf9cv69X
and went to Christine's room. I made sure to knock first, and when 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAapj4Zcs3h1
Christine called from inside to come in, I slowly opened the door. I 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA4m3vv7BJ7G
didn't go in the room as I saw Christine and Zoey on the bed facing each1177Please respect copyright.PENANAefDYgpdTPs
other. They were quiet when they saw me at the door.1177Please respect copyright.PENANALujMNep5cd
"Hey," I said. Zoey looked away, ignoring me. "Lee and I will be going out. I just wanted to let you know."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAwfzii5y4Sn
"Okay," said Christine. "Have fun."1177Please respect copyright.PENANArMuuTjq75D
I nodded my head and quickly closed the door. It was still clear that Zoey didn't want to talk to me.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAHCkxM7r0GM
I walked down the hall and back to the lounge where Lee was waiting for me.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAmk92RqlrOM
"We can go, now," I told her.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAMIDRsU0fo5
"Alright, see you guys," said Lee as she turned to the boys.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAfjeGa3psOD
"Bye," said Mike, his eyes glued to the TV screen and his fingers continually working on the control buttons on the game pad.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAEs6Dl3Pt9z
"Have fun, Sam," said Daniel as he managed to look at me and smile.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAYFckcgh37m
I smiled back at him. 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAqskSP5Y7fi
Then Lee and I took off for the elevator. When we reached the ground 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAvNAtOYQj5D
floor, the SUV was waiting for us as usual. And there were two body 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAZJaHlwMlR6
guards in the other SUV.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAj3QdpkZgBp
"Looks like you have everything planned out for the day," I said as I entered the car and Lee followed.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAZfqwnUISSg
"Well, someone had to bring you back to reality and focus on what's really important," said Lee, as she closed the door.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAyW2BLE4bTQ
"If you mean Zoey and G-Dragon, I don't know what to do anymore."1177Please respect copyright.PENANA7D9A02geyT
The car's engine roared to life and the car drove out for the hotel premises with other car following behind us.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAbjjQb2t1Oe
"So, where are we going?" I asked.1177Please respect copyright.PENANACrkzIg7bsy
"To the mall," Lee answered.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAIacpYqIoxU
"How will the mall help me figure things out?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAP3UcbBOzUf
"What's wrong with the 1177Please respect copyright.PENANADi1pogThxf
mall? Just trying to distract yourself will help you out. Sometimes the 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAIGVeXUu5Uf
best plans just come out of the blue."1177Please respect copyright.PENANADNmbgWrerb
"I should have just stayed behind and continued watching videos."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAHrWrBiHd2x
"And waste the day away? No way."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAABG8Z8yYaI
"Come on, Lee. Right now, I have no idea what to do and watching videos was the perfect way to distract myself."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAveq9keh2xw
"I know. I had to get you away from there so that we can talk about Derrick's brother."1177Please respect copyright.PENANArHA16DCmQj
"And what am I going to do with him? Unless I find out what Zoey's hiding, I can't come up with anything."1177Please respect copyright.PENANASRbMsViHa1
"Didn't you check around the room for any clues?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAwa0wLz2RMR
"No. Zoey might have 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA7gTArAMPjs
moved some of her stuff out of the room, but if she was hiding 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAMxmAiqbyZV
something, she isn't dumb enough to leave it behind. I checked last 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAuOaBNcMKUv
night when she moved out and I couldn't find anything."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAk79WY194sU
"Well that's a bummer. What do you think she's hiding?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANATfduVKn464
"I don't know. But the way Derrick described his brother, I'm expecting it's something serious."1177Please respect copyright.PENANA5pU8o3RTGV
"Are you sure you checked everywhere?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAgayWd20Zem
"The closet, her suitcase and even under the bed. There is nothing."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAGhOz94O0Sr
Lee remained quiet and as for me, I went to looking at the windshield in front of me, looking down the streets of Seoul.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAaYMr1GOzZs
"I don't know what to do1177Please respect copyright.PENANAD5x0Z46jIw
anymore," I said, my eyes still on the road. "Now that I know that Zoey1177Please respect copyright.PENANAv92Q0Bgiqf
might be in trouble, I can't just sit by and watch quietly. I know Zoey1177Please respect copyright.PENANAv0t6EDOwkJ
doesn't like to admit she is in trouble, but I have to help her out 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA4HKjpuHpWY
somehow."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAOm8eeUS42e
"But we can't do this alone, you know? At some point, we will have to involve the others too."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAdyFIZUG6FU
"True. And I'll also have to ask the others their side of the story with what happened in Paris."1177Please respect copyright.PENANANPz1MMlYyk
"Mmm. Acting a true detective. Trying to put one piece of a puzzle together with another."1177Please respect copyright.PENANA9ANschlzxn
I folded my arms as I 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAfxDXsb5oDB
leaned back further in my seat, the wheels of my mind starting to work 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAYGxPpVRnjW
but I couldn't figure out what to do. I had too many problems to deal 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAOmYJymEscu
with and it was driving me nuts. I wonder why I wasn't running around 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAneBuKzNZ1Y
the street with a crazy hairdo at this point.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAE3Dlfk29VN
We soon reached the mall1177Please respect copyright.PENANAmXSAUbIRrU
and we came out of the car, heading towards the building with our two 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAS3eu8T8mlk
body guards behind us. I carried my shades with me this time and I wore 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAzhYtOiDdHN
them as we went in the mall. I could already feel eyes on me and see 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAZq8sVy1PLK
phones coming out out of people's pockets as we passed. I was glad that 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAAlT2QsqOAB
the bodyguards were around.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAUsM9ks86dg
Lee and I first went 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAomC7mdyKb6
shopping for clothes. We even tried out some of them. I had to admit, 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAW0Z4rIQ7AK
shopping and trying out new clothes made me forget about some things for1177Please respect copyright.PENANABQE6Su0YqY
a while. I was having fun.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA5ePloLEVvU
And when it came to the fans, some were brave enough to go past the guards and come take photos with me and take autographs.1177Please respect copyright.PENANACNGoUUGakx
Lee and I soon came out 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAVMTyGIctlJ
of a shoe store after buying some expensive shoes. I bet I bought more 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA0MdkheFbt9
clothes than shoes and Lee was vice versa. We even managed to buy a few 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAJVljBQxaWh
things for the others as well. The bodyguards had to help us out with 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAUOfZPQTl4T
our bags because we bought way too much.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA2gefQarjNE
When we walked out of 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAvCj6DwbTgU
the store, Lee suggested that we go down to the food court and get 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAZ0blQobtUN
ourselves something to eat. We were above the ground floor and just as 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAfY1ZezMyZF
we were about to take the glass elevator, I noticed that opposite the 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAQCiLeZUxk2
elevator was a toy store. I looked at the toys shown on display.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAgJzAlO2P3e
"Hey, what are you looking at?" Lee asked as she noticed that I had stopped.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA1YbUKcbw7V
I couldn't answer Lee. I1177Please respect copyright.PENANAGnlgBh9oqx
also didn't know why I was staring at the toys on display. Something 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAx8MDf9qf2K
had drawn me to this store and I wondered what it was.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAjkTBmpfoRY
"Hello! Earth to Sam!" Lee's fingers snapped in front of me.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAoy36WtLfRE
"Huh?" I turned to look at Lee.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA6uwyrCfHGB
"What's wrong? What are you looking at?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAfWbxlxggg8
"I..." I went back to looking at the toys on the glass display. "I don't know."1177Please respect copyright.PENANACnTo4gWvEb
"You don't know? You're staring at those toys like you want to buy them all."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAbVuUpgX5KB
"I'm not a child, Lee." I rolled my eyes at her.1177Please respect copyright.PENANADEPszjLsZh
"Then why are you looking at those toys like that?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAi1azgghquK
"I...I..." I scratched my head. This was weird even for me too.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAl0qoKYfx4E
I looked at each and 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAQ8NRAn5fIG
every single toy on display till my eyes rested on a huge brown teddy 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA2ou8LP7QrM
bear. I looked at it for a while until my mind clicked.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAlDR6P2fkfZ
"Teddy," I said, looking at Lee.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAG8aNo6qHPI
"What?" Lee looked 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAGmXRao1VYF
really confused and I bet in her mind she was obviously thinking that I 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAkou4NlNhZ9
was crazy. "You want a teddy bear? But you already have a stuffed 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAco936tNw3l
panda."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAopF3QJhIa2
"No, not that. Mr Teddy. The little teddy bear back at the hotel."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAfwzd5Mv1Re
"Ya? What's wrong with it?" Lee asked as she shrugged.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA6psKUzxDHN
"Derrick's brother sent 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA6vpLx4IUHH
it to us that day, remember?" I hit my head in frustration. "Gosh! I 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA8Hesra1Du9
should have asked Derrick if he knew that his brother sent us that teddy1177Please respect copyright.PENANApSeQbvog7j
bear."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAMmq2HAjVX6
"But why are you so concerned about it? It's just a teddy bear."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAwMpsfOCu99
"Ya, sent by Derrick's evil brother. That has to count for something, right?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAcVb25QKeuE
"I don't get it though."1177Please respect copyright.PENANARTtC9KHY7P
Lee shook her head as she stared at the toys on display. "Why are you 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAPjENFAF5GE
so concerned about that small teddy?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANACzyQrZPjhc
"That small teddy might hold the one thing we are looking for."1177Please respect copyright.PENANADMvs1WnTZZ
***1177Please respect copyright.PENANAn4DwyhMbna
Zoey's P.O.V1177Please respect copyright.PENANAxuIUFogGE1
"I'm tired of hearing the same thing over and over again," I said as I rubbed my forehead in frustration.1177Please respect copyright.PENANApvpdXwnsWl
"You know I'm not going to quit, Zoey," said Christine as she looked at me with a stern look.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA98rEsraZrO
"Look, this has hurt and disturbed me a lot. And when I need someone to talk to, you're not supporting me at all."1177Please respect copyright.PENANA5Ovvh7BGcv
"Because I know you're wrong. And you're treating Sam so unfairly."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAV7MIjj5rlX
"How am I treating her unfairly?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAFO0VTlunEa
"You moved out of the 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAWK8x5yzvro
room, taking some of your belongings with you. I know you're upset with 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA0QlXFBlWq6
Sam, but doing that was not right. You're acting as if she is some kind 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAXcBvp5Rb5S
of alien or something."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAEuR5TkT61s
I tilted my head to the side. "Well, if you put it that way, calling her an alien isn't that bad."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAMlAiJwpaJy
In a quick flash, a 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA4FqUxvWs4j
pillow landed on the side of my face with so much force, that I fell to 1177Please respect copyright.PENANABi8u7WwLpK
the side on the bed. I quickly sat up and held my cheek.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAll9n7L6IQq
"Christine!" I exclaimed. I was shocked that she did that.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAsADWls3R2a
"Do you want more of 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAVpf3mujE9X
this pillow or should I get a hammer instead?" Christine asked 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAO4HyVqOzHh
threateningly as she held up her pillow, ready to strike at me again.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA06KlFeA031
"Never mind. I shouldn't have said that."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAzWJHeAPGUg
"You got that right." 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAR3YbARJiwc
Christine put the pillow away. "I know Sam hurt you a lot, but you won't1177Please respect copyright.PENANAo4LooCi19I
ignore her like you're doing forever."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAKMzbeUM7Kt
"Don't worry, forever will be here any moment now." I said ironically as I looked at the door.1177Please respect copyright.PENANABZdnVPBFb5
"You know that sooner or later you will need her. And besides, she is always going to be around whether you like it or not."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAqjuQfaAhzU
"Ya. You don't have to remind me since we're all in a group together."1177Please respect copyright.PENANA64nzFkZzLw
Christine carefully looked at me and stood up from the bed, walking towards the window.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAZKWM623LCn
"It's normal for someone1177Please respect copyright.PENANA2safECVKGv
to get hurt by the ones they love and you aren't the first nor the last1177Please respect copyright.PENANA8Xd57ytSPX
to experience such, Zoey," said Christine as she looked at me. "You 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAbQXiHmizuu
just need time to heal. You'll be back to your normal self and later on,1177Please respect copyright.PENANAGMDMiTCsyY
you will be laughing at all this with Sam. One thing's for sure, you 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAo0k6M4newl
and Sam are best friends. And nothing will ever change that."1177Please respect copyright.PENANA9b1zCKocsK
I always hated such kind1177Please respect copyright.PENANAOWSeyu3pDq
of talk. And coming from Christine, it just made me want to cry. Which I1177Please respect copyright.PENANApYGzuBJH9e
didn't want to do. So what if I was still mad at Sam? I knew for a fact1177Please respect copyright.PENANAgdXyvRnAPi
that I wasn't going to ignore Sam for long. And as much as I wanted to,1177Please respect copyright.PENANA3bovgtnXWw
I couldn't live without Sam. She's been my best friend for as long as I1177Please respect copyright.PENANA23eQ20qyjz
could remember and I'm used with her being around. Without her, I'm 1177Please respect copyright.PENANALk1RO5tZ68
nothing.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAumHiez8YM9
I've never told anyone 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAQ9N6tDq19Q
this before, but I've always considered Sam as my better half. Not in a 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAxJYY91Oq2O
couple kind of thing (which is kind of gross by the way), but more like a1177Please respect copyright.PENANA2lIgvytqQc
sister kind of thing. I am one person who is always prone to getting 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAN5KCgp80pD
into trouble and Sam has always been the one to get me out of it. If it 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAnutkS3UWvr
wasn't for Sam, I would have been a high school drop out or worse. I 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA57LDvj9qVn
also wouldn't find myself as a famous singer in a pop group right now.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA7NdtpTriPp
I am Yin and she is 1177Please respect copyright.PENANANH5c8C6nSh
Yang, balancing my life and hers. But mostly mine. I fell we are the 1177Please respect copyright.PENANASpBs5BqSly
perfect harmony when we are together even though I am not as perfect as 1177Please respect copyright.PENANABvvVbOCZER
she is. Maybe that's why I consider myself as Yin, the dark side and Sam1177Please respect copyright.PENANAGFLtkxMLkl
the bright side. You see what I mean, right?1177Please respect copyright.PENANAbDFGvztZPI
And now when I needed 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA8EgdqKRtsw
her the most, I was stuck with no one to turn to. I couldn't open up to 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA9t7gJwab22
her now and tell her what's going on in my life. I've gotten myself into1177Please respect copyright.PENANAwxqHHR3U7Y
big trouble this time around and there was no way of turning back or 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAU35xQAB1U7
getting anyone involved to help. Not when you know you're involved in a 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAy0vwqdyXsM
serious situation with a very dangerous person.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAAA5Uj6LUXH
It all begun when I went1177Please respect copyright.PENANAmj8qhgUI2T
to Paris with G-Dragon, TOP and the other Toxins, excluding Sam. How I 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAyeUp0UkQwv
wish she had come along with me that day. Maybe I wasn't going to be in 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA6rIxypU23F
this mess.1177Please respect copyright.PENANASOVTkG5zV8
We were having so much 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAvnr19WtRet
fun that night. We went for the Chanel fashion show as planned and it 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA4fZSKwvQcO
was fun looking at the latest fashion being worn and showcased on the 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA1dTUl3iCtX
runway. At that time I felt on top of the world with what had happened 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAcY1rWgPUUF
between G-Dragon and I at the Eiffle Tower. And I was so happy and 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAeNrwiFvxJz
pretty much oblivious that nothing could ever go wrong. But sadly, 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAnzS47qUFSa
things did go wrong.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAG7epwrL4hO
As we were watching the 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAxeapeTwdC0
models, I was seated next to someone whom I hadn't really took notice 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAx6hV3AR7hx
for a while since the fashion show started until he turned to look at me1177Please respect copyright.PENANAq1xZjNHWKV
and said hi. He introduced himself as Jehan. He told me he was French.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAgSZOuiTDVW
When I looked at him, he1177Please respect copyright.PENANAXFUoopkL22
seemed like a really nice guy. He was also very handsome. He recognised1177Please respect copyright.PENANAoThxN1Q14Y
me as one of the Toxins and said he was a huge fan. We talked for a 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAIDDVA4ffev
while during the show and for a moment there, we seemed to be getting 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAEj80bWJFgP
along just fine. I also introduced him to the others. It was after the 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAOGU7Duhlrf
fashion show that I realised I was dead wrong about him.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAMkkExukays
After the show when 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAOXKSWGy4kO
everyone was busy finding themselves among groups and indulging into 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAUQ64ipw2lE
some random conversation, Jehan, said that he wanted to talk to me in 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAHRFYMf4vmd
private. I didn't like the idea of leaving the others while I went out 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAMXY2Kxp8Yk
with someone I barely even knew. But he did say it was only going to 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA9w2znZ4fxa
take a few minutes.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAddGwPX4L4y
I didn't find anything 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAchzXRzc1f7
wrong with it and I agreed to go out with him for a while. Besides, I 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAHRkkZ05H13
was getting too much attention and going out looked like a good idea at 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAfxkmpo0NpU
the time. Without telling G-Dragon who was with TOP and the others 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAmh8HE2LDTu
talking to some famous fashion designers, I knew they wouldn't miss me 1177Please respect copyright.PENANARYFWsud3Ci
too much.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA90ss4yUtFh
Jehan led the way out 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAC5eXo5lMHv
and we found ourselves outside. It was lovely and the night was cool as 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAUf0Sb70jMf
we took a walk around a small garden outside the building. There were a 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAOCulHxPmXS
few people outside, some near the fountain. At least there was an 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAX8oGyape8F
assurance that if anything were to go wrong, there were witnesses. With 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAkETHUbgRKQ
that I felt a little safe.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAyKDcjNsoFs
The two of us soon found1177Please respect copyright.PENANAOt2eReNooC
ourselves indulged in some conversation. Before I knew it, we were all 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAwhaD3IWfQV
alone in the garden and that's when Jehan took the opportunity to 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAfI2qjUdFg1
threaten me. It was something I hadn't told anyone about because what 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA92yyC3LJ56
happened frightened me. And coming from a person like Jehan, you could 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAIhO7hcnUYZ
doubt that such a guy like him would ever do such a thing. Yet alone on a1177Please respect copyright.PENANANgoskzV9m6
lady. He said if I didn't do whatever he said, he wouldn't hesitate to 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA5OyDLRKaut
hunt me down and kill me. I believed his threats because he was pointing1177Please respect copyright.PENANADqQsQaKRBS
a gun at me and his face went from sweet and kind to dangerous and 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAMjkdVEhP3G
menacing.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAKQOyZXi9uK
He gave me something for1177Please respect copyright.PENANAYo6fwrgCiW
me to keep safe and not to let anyone know about it. He said he would 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAKeRZCgw4nk
follow me to Korea and get it. He was the same person I had met at the 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAOyRBU5CkCC
café and when I gave him the item back, he said there was more that had 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAedR4whgFfU
to be done. When I asked what he meant, he didn't say anything. All he 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAuxgIlliHnI
said was that something was going to be sent to me back at the hotel in 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAVZM05S0eJx
the name of The Toxins. That's how the teddy bear came in.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAVxqk7W2gd6
Whatever he sent me that1177Please respect copyright.PENANAnDvpw3Eit6
teddy bear for, I have no idea. And when I talked to him about what I 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAY3Cxi4NT8v
should do with it yesterday, he said he would meet with me and give me 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAbrgCoAYEqK
further instructions. And I couldn't meet up with him because of what 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAKw5iC8mrca
happened yesterday.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA7Ti6ymv94n
I had never been in this1177Please respect copyright.PENANAE5PylmKs8u
situation before and all I wanted was for all this to be over. But how?1177Please respect copyright.PENANA83EHYn1ImM
Unless I come up with a plan, I was going to be threatened for the rest1177Please respect copyright.PENANAOlKMWuS89E
of my life and that's how I didn't want my life to be. I'm Zoey for 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAJUPwXpEiJ1
crying out loud. I had to do something.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAQK50FDWDpq
My phone rang bringing 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAtZqBvFEbDW
me back from my thoughts. Christine who was looking out the window, 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAFeuVZ4kgIb
turned to look at me. I went to looking at the phone laying right beside1177Please respect copyright.PENANAnLQa0kuwEv
me. When I saw that Jehan was calling, I froze.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAlFXgSzeLoH
"Aren't you going to answer that?" Christine asked, as I delayed to pick up the call.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA9P0Z2ur99r
"I...uh, ya, I will," I said as I picked up the phone and answered the call. I could already feel myself starting to sweat.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA9RT6kS0DDI
"Hello?" I answered. I almost gave out a croak when I spoke.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA9WDcmG5r7J
"Nice to hear that you're still answering my calls. Shows that you're cooperating."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAb685dA3KNo
I would have told him to1177Please respect copyright.PENANAB2tUA5j09Q
mind his own beeswax but I couldn't with Christine in the room staring 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAYjMQWyFalT
at me like an eagle. Was she observing me? I couldn't tell.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA9rILrf5wBA
"I'm great and you?" I said over the phone with a smile. Christine ignored me and went back to looking at the window.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAWCLmefIGFd
"Looks like you aren't 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAXLRJGywjMF
alone," said Jehan. I could hear in his voice that he wanted to chuckle.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAINbkELsZkh
"You wouldn't have answered so nicely like you rarely do."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAVNSMBVVZu1
"May I help you with anything?" I asked as nicely as I could. He was already getting on my nerves.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAu9mG3gFkiZ
"Relax, my little tigress. I could tell I'm getting on your nerves and that won't be good for you now, would it?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAW6dM4x77KY
"Just get to the point, 1177Please respect copyright.PENANApFtIefeBcv
will you?" I snapped, losing my cool. Christine turned to look at me. I 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA7jZCLBwrh4
smiled as best as I could that I was afraid my face would tear.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA69D8G1K9uv
"I want us to meet, today," said Jehan. There was a touch of coldness to his voice and that sent chills down my spine.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAF3ChNXeehg
"Today? Are you serious?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAvuWz94wewK
"You know that I am. We meet today."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAOCL0OXcqRI
"But where?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANA3BPLZH809P
"At the mall."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAcBVtqqSEZl
For a moment I almost 1177Please respect copyright.PENANApJtUOoeQmk
burst out laughing, but I held my mouth. I wondered why he would want to1177Please respect copyright.PENANAL77nXJaa37
meet me at the mall. I was expecting the café again or some fancy 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA61HdK2Dk5g
restaurant. To me, he didn't strike me as one person who would want to 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAVPv322dvZt
hang out at the mall. That's what made it seem so funny to me.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAV3NtXLzy8m
"What's so funny?" Jehan1177Please respect copyright.PENANAtC46jSDE0V
asked sternly. He knew I was almost about to burst out laughing. The 1177Please respect copyright.PENANATZz1rm8dcc
tone of his voice almost did the trick but I still took a hold of 1177Please respect copyright.PENANArhmlZBzTid
myself.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAOye1xN2T0Z
"Nothing, I wanted to sneeze but held it. That's all."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAYykrzpj1JE
"You better be telling the truth or else I will blow your brains out."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAi46YBUsA58
If he thought saying 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAORt2Y3LYHr
that would get me scared, it didn't. I pulled the phone far away from me1177Please respect copyright.PENANAb3H6lVuMXp
and laughed quietly. Then I put the phone back to my ear.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAJVXJ9yQ3PZ
"I don't think I would be able to meet you," I said, choosing my words carefully in front of Christine.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAqlbSIUYx3W
"I don't care. You're meeting with me whether you like it or not."1177Please respect copyright.PENANA42qLEgPAdl
"Mmm. Even if I wanted to, I don't know how I'm going to get there."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAcjo6zw9efw
"A car will be waiting to take you within fifteen minutes. You better get ready. And don't forget the teddy."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAWd5KpdNYBP
"Ya, sure."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAnS4b0ZjSXa
Jehan didn't say 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAILzV3zG4OW
anything more and cut the call. He was so rude. Bossing me around just 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAfeUDV1rLqP
because he could do whatever he wants with a gun pointed to my head. 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAIpzrMTbTM2
Typical.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA6eMy7TmtGp
"Who was that?" Christine asked, looking at me.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAJ0vCwzrjbZ
"Oh, it was Seungri," I lied. "He wanted to see if I was free right now so that the two of us could hang out."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAT63WZhAe3v
"Seriously?" Christine looked surprised. "Why would Seungri call you just to hang out?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANA5PMvOvTGFI
"Well, he wanted to talk to me about Sam. That's all."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAxnRAGGKET8
"And you didn't refuse?" Christine had her arms folded and looking at me with doubt.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAz3qi1aor9b
"Why? You think I would?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANA8zrTaOdimh
"Ya. The Zoey I know would refuse."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAeRJMVErr2h
"He's just taking me to some fancy place. I couldn't refuse."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAy8ZUCDrxRj
"Ya, you always like the fancy stuff." Christine rolled her eyes as she looked up at the ceiling.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAQYwVMxw756
"Whatever happened to that teddy bear?" I asked, changing the topic.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAGftN3QLpW4
"You mean the teddy bear you hate so much?" Christine came closer and sat down on the other side of her bed.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAfmVyJhExkW
"That one. Where is it?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAM2KIVTiDgF
"Why are you even asking?" Christine shrugged her shoulders.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAuqE7O9ItWZ
"I just want to ask if it's still around. That's all. I hadn't seen it ever since we went bowling that other day."1177Please respect copyright.PENANA1zkEHUlOdO
Christine looked over at Lee's bed across from her's.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAJNh5cisPz2
"I saw it on the bed yesterday. I don't know where she could have put it."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAgu1yAMeD78
"Oh. Okay," I said, as I stood up with my eyes surveying Lee's bed. "I better get ready to meet Seungri, then."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAUuRjOi07vc
"Alright," said Christine as she also stood up. "I need to use the bathroom."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAr4yqSso4PY
Christine went past me to the bathroom and closed the door behind her, locking it.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAeou6Z5Ia5D
I quietly went over to 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAwAvG9U9LAz
Lee's bed. Her bed was well spread and pillows well placed. I couldn't 1177Please respect copyright.PENANArVNUGP1OGw
see the teddy anywhere. I had to act fast or else Christine will be back1177Please respect copyright.PENANAgSWvJaeavk
soon.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAwpPiGubXOm
I came to the drawer 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAPXCgtwg4fU
next to the bed and checked them, being careful enough not to make a 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAWl5wr4KnTV
sound. Nothing. I almost started to panic. Where was the teddy?1177Please respect copyright.PENANADJs6fQTmkz
I looked at her bed and 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAG0IvKh5ad2
decided to check under the pillows. When I lifted one of them, there 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA9693LHdZCx
laid the teddy bear still in his tiny suit.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAGSrjwYJXR0
"There you are," I said softly as I took the teddy. "I think it's now time for you to leave once and for all."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAAnPVY3sEex
I heard the tap in the 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAa9iGvAegKo
bathroom running. Christine was bound to be back in the room any second 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAC47RxLHZ1A
now. I quickly put the pillow back neatly and then tiptoed quickly out 1177Please respect copyright.PENANArvJpwdbvDo
of the room with the teddy in my other hand. When I reached the door, I 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA7nRuF2k13k
quietly opened it and closed it behind me.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAzsrVMs21l6
***1177Please respect copyright.PENANAJzH6ZIwmEZ
Sam's P.O.V1177Please respect copyright.PENANA8BUpGIZgkd
"Do you really think 1177Please respect copyright.PENANADVlSYcVXEM
that teddy carries something that will help us figure out what's going 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAaTn0BxPtpp
on?" Lee asked as she took a sip of her smoothie, looking at me.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAewPXIbXmoS
"Definitely," I said as I got a french fry, dipped it in sauce and put it in my mouth.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAF7iMU1EU9L
"Okay, so far, Derrick has described his brother as a very dangerous guy. Is he some sort of criminal or something?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANA2axSZmJaKH
"For him to threaten Zoey, he must be. But if he really is a criminal, then what sort of crime does he do?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANA1UoQcGbyMz
"I hope it's not drugs."1177Please respect copyright.PENANA6zdla0FgQO
"I hope not too." I shook my head at that terrible thought.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAhpqfBM8cG5
"What of gun trafficking?" Lee asked as she held her smoothie cup in midair.1177Please respect copyright.PENANANJ3RmTthkl
"No way." I asked as I drank from my smoothie.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA4GfsdvRFXZ
"So, what should we do with that teddy bear?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANA94PWnhUgfp
"Keep it away from her. Whatever that thing has, we have to know before she takes it away."1177Please respect copyright.PENANA6XxhojCHn6
"I wonder why she never kept it for herself. I mean, if she is being threatened, her life will depend on that teddy, right?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAOHRqPNkogr
"True." I nodded my head. "I bet she pretended to hate the teddy so that we don't get suspicious of anything."1177Please respect copyright.PENANA2hRXgufdjB
"She did a pretty good job on that one."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAfYQjQYYAGm
"Ya. But she was overreacting. Who could reject such a cute teddy bear like that one?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAeGAC3W8Gj5
"Zoey."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAvLhyxPJVhI
"Haha. Ya. I heard Zoey 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAPxisLoH2kp
talking to Derrick's brother. They were supposed to meet yesterday but 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAZ7FQyxRDsb
they couldn't because of our little fight."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAl6IQRjZpEu
"Mmm." Lee took a fry 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA5THdmpKUUg
and dipped it in sauce as she looked deep in thought. "Don't you think 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAK3nS8ARDRj
the two would try to meet today, no matter what?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANA96OLraa8j4
I raised an eyebrow at 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAE1RKv3FqMd
her. Come to think of it, I was supposed to be keeping an eye on Zoey. 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAPsPQ5nX2tI
But here I was, eating fries. I completely forgot.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAtNGUQJEhdK
"Shoot!" I said loudly 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAfn92lW16L4
as I leaned my head back with my eyes closed. I bet everyone around me 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAB2KUfb9joU
was wondering what was wrong with me since I was so loud. I hit my head 1177Please respect copyright.PENANACbxvqL3FK3
with my hand. "You're so right, Lee."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAiTH2sTV0f6
"About what?" Lee asked.1177Please respect copyright.PENANASOtgtln7Hm
"About Zoey meeting him today. I should have been more aware."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAQeAINTkrnU
"But do you think they would? I was just suggesting."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAuwDXcDozUZ
"But today might be the 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAak5T3u2G95
perfect time for them to meet. We are here, the boys are busy playing 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAwrV9pKCgVT
video games and Zoey might find a way to dodge Christine to go out."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAX0nur7QuQo
"Hopefully not. If she is going to meet him today, then she might take the teddy with her."1177Please respect copyright.PENANARky54WqYoa
My heart rate quickened 1177Please respect copyright.PENANANXA3FmKDtk
at the thought of Zoey meeting Derrick's brother. I was scared. What if 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAkTQ0Ftdfv5
she sees him today and things don't go well this time around?1177Please respect copyright.PENANAcZHTTv77jB
"If I were you, I would give Zoey a call," said Lee. She obviously saw the worried look on my face.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAlNnboi1k3p
"No, you do it," I said shaking my head. "She isn't going to answer my call."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAYLXtPPxvnd
"Oh, yeah," said Lee as she took out her phone from her handbag and called Zoey.1177Please respect copyright.PENANALnBa3ZlTpd
"She isn't picking up," said Lee as she looked at her phone. "She must have switched her phone off."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAlmwxsPFMBx
"She must have gone to see him. Call Christine and ask about Zoey."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAiznRf2qbx3
Lee went back to her phone and immediately called Christine. Christine picked up immediately.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAYwxApeEqp4
"Hey, Christine," said Lee as she looked over at me and I watched her intently. "I wanted to ask if Zoey is with you."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAG3zDwikLyJ
There was a pause as Lee listened to Christine over the phone. Lee's face changed completely.1177Please respect copyright.PENANArKm1NnvqVw
"Alright, thanks, 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAHblIKZ4nOB
Christine," said Lee as she cut the call and looked at me. "Zoey had 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAeohEJzzLiR
left the hotel a few minutes ago. Christine says she went out with 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAW8HcTbcYCe
Seungri."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAnexeUaqMsJ
I raised an eyebrow. "Seungri? Why would Seungri meet with Zoey? I bet she lied."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAgliVrGlWaL
"Of course she did. She has obviously gone to meet with this guy."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAjubhi97qCC
"Did Christine say where she had gone?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAQM2S3lpikV
"No. Zoey wasn't specific. All Christine said was that she and Seungri were going to some fancy place."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAVvD72L520U
I suddenly decided to get my phone from my purse and called Seungri. He answered the call immediately.1177Please respect copyright.PENANADKjJSyha7r
"Hey, BK," he said so enthusiastically over the phone. "How are you?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAanNkw9eq9h
"I'm fine, Seungri, thanks," I said, immediately jumping to the point. "Where are you?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAVoks4ethDP
"I'm in my car heading to GD's. Is there anything I could do for you?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANA99f8bhrDuG
"Uh, no, nothing. Was just asking. Are you alone?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAhUm9bzT12G
"Yes, I am." I could 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAubOcFArXuV
already imagine a smile on his face and I had to get ready for a 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAvvRBniN69F
ridiculous question to follow. "Why? You think I'm with someone? A woman1177Please respect copyright.PENANAcPpgR4h9xF
perhaps?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAVgXnr9yOaB
I rolled my eyes and as 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA7VxgsculTU
much as I wanted to remain stoic and not laugh, I did. I quickly tried 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAFTn5N3JgXt
to cover it up, but Seungri also heard it and chuckled. Lee looked at me1177Please respect copyright.PENANA9EgsvOOG2H
with an eyebrow raised as I laughed out loud this time around.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAjnprVRinG7
"What makes you think that?" I asked after recovering from my laugh.1177Please respect copyright.PENANASeMt6CG3X2
"For you to call, I'm guessing you must have been thinking of me and tried to see what I'm up to."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAfjudDdJhRx
I bit my lower lip and 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAwJFz38KOhC
shook my head. If only he knew why I called. But I had to admit, he was 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAsSaTWyPA9z
really making me laugh even when I didn't want to.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAD3gEup2UuL
"It's really nothing, Seungri. I just wanted to say hi."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAe2xlftayW7
"Well, if you say so." I knew he wasn't buying it. "Where are you?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAVSzTSEnzO3
"I'm at the mall with Lee."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAvFkTVfEbxb
"Okay, you have fun now. You will need it."1177Please respect copyright.PENANArU3N7nO6YA
"Bye."1177Please respect copyright.PENANA5KDlWXJ3XB
"Bye, my little kitty."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAPaHLALiguv
"Well, that was some conversation," said Lee as I put my phone away.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAZPqBD6BXYK
"Ya, it was," I said still with a smile on my face.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAEoPeg267qU
"So, he isn't with Zoey?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAXPGeoS6zWh
"Nope. And he isn't 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAb4KBmeYnBO
going to some fancy place either." I paused as the smile on my face 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAEIv1sxvX8z
disappeared. "He's gone to see G-Dragon."1177Please respect copyright.PENANA8BElRJViKX
"Oh." Lee took her smoothie and sucked on the straw. "Umm, what are we going to do now? We have to know where Zoey is."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAEcldpDCkBR
"You're right," I said. "But where can we even start to look? This time, I'm blank."1177Please respect copyright.PENANA9zKg3CltzW
"Maybe they are going to meet at the café again."1177Please respect copyright.PENANA1LtpKwoMg6
I shook my head. "I highly doubt it. Even if we were to guess where they could meet, it would probably be too late."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAmZtant8TGC
Lee sighed as she folded her arms. "Well, this has turned out to be such a bust."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAc5FMVVW4IZ
"Tell me about it." I 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAUz1VhKCfZW
put my elbows on the table and held my head in my hands. "I shouldn't 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA3jAPeQbe4M
have allowed this to happen. I shouldn't have been so absent minded."1177Please respect copyright.PENANADNtPRRBEsW
"Don't beat yourself up, Sam," said Lee. "Maybe it's time we told Zoey what we already know."1177Please respect copyright.PENANA2jiiDs0y9I
I nodded. We were now caught in a dead end and maybe it was time we involved the others too.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAvbEUhTzQOD
After we were done with 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAslUghOmuyq
lunch, we paid for the meal, carried our shopping bags with us and with 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAJsyFzYRtME
our body guards following behind, we headed out of the mall.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAKta4mUjfwr
As soon as we walked out1177Please respect copyright.PENANAFU15MaFlTE
through the main entrance, a fancy looking red Ferrari was parked right1177Please respect copyright.PENANAbztQ0n8SLP
in front of us in the parking lot. Just as we were about to bypass the 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA2ByMsvMaJF
car, the door to the driver's seat flew open and a man in a fancy 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAKPyDaSwCe2
looking black suit stepped out.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAh8qYbKd1Hy
Time seemed to have 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAFCIqWxfSVY
stopped when I looked at the man from the corner of my eye. He was tall 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAAALTDveKOz
and handsome with a strong jaw and black shiny hair which was combed 1177Please respect copyright.PENANApHmFCWAJHL
back. He had a pair of sunglasses on and I couldn't help but feel 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAt2A1ROSPz4
something familiar about him.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAF5nWj3Xngb
Just as I was about to 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA1nYNnEheRp
focus ahead, the man removed his shades and I fully turned to look at 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAULT8vxqE8L
him. My mouth almost dropped and I couldn't believe what I was seeing.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAGC8WWK6LbE
I almost tripped and 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAmR7M2zLJvd
fell over on the road but I was quick to gather myself. Lee looked at me1177Please respect copyright.PENANAJ5MA9l7yPN
with concern because even the guards almost came to my rescue to stop 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAqGXYqLn85Y
me from falling.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAMSQdrFnA7e
"Are you okay, Sam?" Lee asked as she looked at me. "You almost fell."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAFohgS76ZcY
I didn't say a word as I1177Please respect copyright.PENANANEnWxcd829
looked behind me where the Ferrari was packed and I noticed the man go 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA9huGFzZ13m
inside the mall. I turned to look at Lee.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAZG7TxWlYTJ
"We need to go back, Lee," I said.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAzSzwTUnEJJ
"But why? You're scaring me Sam. It's look like you have seen a ghost."1177Please respect copyright.PENANArUOVwUvKYe
"Trust me, Lee. We need to go back. We have to put these bags away first."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAznYS5KMNMZ
"May I please know what's going on with you?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANANT0chc6HwU
"I know where Zoey and Derrick's brother are going to meet. They will be meeting here. At the mall."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAomM9XMPSPB
***1177Please respect copyright.PENANAn2KlOvCnzS
Narrator's P.O.V1177Please respect copyright.PENANAUiqM6SSp0C
Seungri came into G-Dragon's apartment and found TOP, Taeyang and G-Dragon, who was still in his pyjamas, in the living room.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAFbN1oyrzVP
"Hey guys, am here," 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAbAQcjvgMTw
annouced Seungri as he sat down on the couch next to Taeyang. "You guys 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA5BL95tThzB
look downcast as though someone's just died."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAjd1d6AV7rx
"Ji Yong still doesn't want to talk things out with Sam," said TOP.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAhvfN0COZGw
"This is getting real 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAmtt7NTRtSh
frustrating, guys," said G-Dragon who was hugging a couch pillow close 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAyeCqYeKe9B
to him and looking down on the floor. "Now isn't the time to talk with 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAL819P4FplD
her or with anyone of you."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAlyEtZs1qq5
"No, I think now is the 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAY571BPyOES
time to solve things with her," said Taeyang. "We will be working on the1177Please respect copyright.PENANAisHRkH6ENs
music video soon and we can't do this if you two aren't on good terms."1177Please respect copyright.PENANABCD5RNmoUf
"And let's not forget, Zoey," said Seungri.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAF4ZlhtPKCD
"Zoey is a whole lot tougher to talk to," said G-Dragon. "I already did my part and told her the truth."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAcsWE907oF0
"Well, you shouldn't have led her on if you knew you had feelings for Sam," said Taeyang.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA4ZhfhP7HvR
"Let's not forget, Daesung also has feelings for her," said TOP.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAa7Pw7mrPxm
"And me," said Seungri with a corky smile on his face.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAKCd9cJujGZ
"Oh, stop joking around, Seungri," said G-Dragon, with a frown on his face.1177Please respect copyright.PENANARmhSOpy6Uv
"For real," said Seungri raising his hands in the air admitting to the truth. "I also like Sam."1177Please respect copyright.PENANApDKRNUNocx
The others rolled their 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAjyzTVztHOQ
eyes at Seungri, obviously not taking him seriously. He usually jokes 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAAymLdrzqOp
around and now wasn't the time for it.1177Please respect copyright.PENANADQPkO043vI
"Look, I know leading Zoey on was a big mistake, but I'm more angry at Sam than at myself," said G-Dragon.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAHBenJwlNNX
"Why? Because Sam and Daesung kissed?" Seungri asked with an eyebrow raised.1177Please respect copyright.PENANACg2c5hOI6u
G-Dragon didn't answer immediately. He looked like he was about to jump at Seungri and tear him apart.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAldLsTAdlk0
"Well, maybe," said 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA6RlIKGVBmq
G-Dragon. "The thing is, the day Zoey went missing, she and I had a talk1177Please respect copyright.PENANAGzDivVEboc
in the park about the same thing. She figured out that I liked her so 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAUFXPPVugOr
she told me to break things up with Zoey."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAfawaPyAvVi
"And why didn't you do that sooner?" TOP asked.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAkcYXLw0CFc
"When I saw Daesung and 1177Please respect copyright.PENANADOVjJH3kWL
Sam so close the next day, I couldn't help it. I had a feeling they 1177Please respect copyright.PENANALHkXvfE0uP
kissed though I didn't see it for myself. That's what made me so mad."1177Please respect copyright.PENANA8CgwNWBGNh
"And you still are," said Taeyang.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAYfaL8hGrr3
G-Dragon didn't answer 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAzI4cYkNFQi
as he looked down at his fingers, looking as if he was ready to bite 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAqMTCeqKFM1
them out of anger. "Yes," he replied slowly.1177Please respect copyright.PENANALCPbjXgCCc
"Oh, I get it now," said Seungri, as he looked up at the ceiling. "But I see no reason why Sam could be in the wrong here."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAorZ5IyaBKa
"What do you mean?" 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAlSHdC1HllF
G-Dragon asked as he looked up at Seungri. "Sam didn't tell me anything 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAHzkBEYrm90
about Daesung and yet she told me not be with Zoey anymore."1177Please respect copyright.PENANATvlYUKjmMJ
"She was just doing that1177Please respect copyright.PENANATZSwBVJ8Iv
to protect Zoey because she figured out that you like her instead of 1177Please respect copyright.PENANANt84AUe38T
her best friend," said Taeyang. "And besides, we all heard your little 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAHa6r8WCTI4
argument. She and Daesung also talked and also agreed that they cannot 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAcikG3M2O78
be together."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAEtnvnRehQy
"I still don't believe all that," said G-Dragon.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAblB7a1aWkH
"You better believe it, Ji Yong," came Daesung's voice by the door. "Sam never meant to hurt anyone. Not even you."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAsd6UDTMTIC
All the four BigBang 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAPvWALJU7tS
members in the living area, turned towards the door. Daesung stood there1177Please respect copyright.PENANACjnuzV8C95
looking at them. The others were a little surprised that they hadn't 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAM80dmWCk3a
heard him come in.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA6Di6diHjg5
"It's good you're here," said Seungri. "You also have a lot of explaining to do."1177Please respect copyright.PENANABDqkK9jYUR
"No, he doesn't," said G-Dragon.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAgxiPLJCEf2
"Yes, I do," said Daesung. "All this has to be cleared up once and for all."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAGTx7fJkF6b
"True," said TOP. G-Dragon who sat beside him gave him an angry stare. TOP shrugged. "What?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAksntefInsa
"I'm not going to stay 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA2GZYsd5QlS
here and listen to this," said G-Dragon as he stood up from the couch. 1177Please respect copyright.PENANARZdCfmpOs5
"If you need me, I'll be in my room."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAgn4rfttpWP
"No wait, you have to hear me out," said Daesung.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAxFlSQhhIZz
"No, I don't."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAXuumBw69nn
Before G-Dragon could 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAUT47DwSjqA
take a step in the direction of his room, TOP held his arm and pulled 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAUkNG4dv7YN
him down. G-Dragon sat right back on the couch.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAw26pssAfZi
"You aren't going anyway," said TOP.1177Please respect copyright.PENANALRE5SzpaCN
"Come on, man, seriously!" G-Dragon complained.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAlxL9wmmbKe
"Let's hear what Daesung has to say, alright?" Taeyang suggested.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAIqUUFC9yoS
G-Dragon folded his arms1177Please respect copyright.PENANA8oqGvPwxSj
and looked at the others like an angry child who was told to do 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAVv4rspd46w
something that he didn't want to do. He finally rolled his eyes and 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA3h8qvsdgMC
stared at the ceiling.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAJsmh2BYyAL
"Fine," he said. Then he looked at Daesung. "Go ahead."1177Please respect copyright.PENANASGASM7W6kA
Daesung came into the 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAXWkHDO2yYS
living area and didn't take a seat. He stood there in front of the TV 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA9HsIMcnCLS
for everyone to get his attention. His eyes locked with G-Dragon's.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAFvX5PnTSP3
"Look, I know you're 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAxwPZOYAiqZ
probably mad and want to kill me right now," started Daesung. "But first1177Please respect copyright.PENANAnpsVPhVP46
thing's first, I had no idea that you had something for Sam and she 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAOnGrczFlEF
never told me anything either."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAg1x9jPtk3p
"Do you really like her?" G-Dragon asked, looking at Daesung with so much intent.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAosKgdVgmGk
"Yes, I won't deny it. I thought she and I might make our relationship work, but she didn't think that way."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAUTYSUH1tsG
"Why?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAc1JOv7ZCCo
"She just felt like it 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAIHx7RS5Afw
wasn't going to work. That's what she told me. She wasn't going to stay 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA9jVwwYrxjU
here for long. And judging by that, she doesn't look like one who thinks1177Please respect copyright.PENANAnj7s9yrPAd
long distance relationships will ever work out."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAw63GmPjrNM
"Then, why did you kiss her?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANA44K8uXOQts
"Because I know I'll 1177Please respect copyright.PENANApOBxVVNCPd
never get a chance to do so. Sam is a great person and calling her great1177Please respect copyright.PENANAxvYWtJpoDl
is an understatement because she is way beyond that. And I see 1177Please respect copyright.PENANApEmLtXXbhG
something in her that I've never seen in any other girl before. I could 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA1LNB3pFkc7
tell you also see it in her too. She is also one person who wouldn't 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAzlSxgIgvgx
want to hurt anyone either.1177Please respect copyright.PENANADV0Agqzyvn
"Maybe that's why she 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAleMomrKbAn
didn't want anything to do with me either because she knew you would 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAzgRdnNl4No
also get hurt. But unfortunately, you already had a hunch about our kiss1177Please respect copyright.PENANAHapva9R7II
and I could see that it really hurt you a lot."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAsBEBvpUJZx
"Ya, it did," said G-Dragon as he looked somewhere else, his mind on Sam.1177Please respect copyright.PENANABd8qPeRhUg
"Now, are you going to talk to her?" Daesung asked.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAsQ4GVq9Vhq
"What?" G-Dragon turned to look back at Daesung with a confused look on his face.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAB7vsnF41nV
"Aren't you going to talk to Sam?" Daesung asked again. "All this wasn't entirely her fault."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAUacVzyoiL1
"I know."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAlekXUiMk5W
"So, you will talk to her, then?" TOP asked.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAHdFFCptxb7
"I'll think about it."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAmesy3OcMTm
"No, no, no!" Seungri 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAgn1OoAPVnv
waved his finger at G-Dragon. "That's it! You're always stubborn and you1177Please respect copyright.PENANAuw8tR8cJem
want things to be done your way. Go and take a shower. We're going to 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAFk6m05hs02
the mall."1177Please respect copyright.PENANA3YcRn8iw3p
Everyone turned to look at Seungri and wondered if he had hit his head or something.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAeFahl5WMmH
"Huh?" Taeyang shook his head, trying to understand if he had heard right. "Did you just say the mall?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANA1PUJrTyz4O
"Ya," said Seungri, 1177Please respect copyright.PENANADpuEm9N5MC
shaking his head. "We're going to the mall. Sam is there and I think 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAoVCH3hiW1M
this will be a good time for the two of them to talk."1177Please respect copyright.PENANA9amRo0EsQK
"No way! I'm not going to the mall," said G-Dragon. "What am I going to say? I need more time to think about it."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAVYxLSjPy3f
"There is no time to 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAsDBzmpsUHa
think about it," said TOP. "I'm not going to allow you to keep on doing 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA8zQlU2q0Je
this to Sam. It's not right at all."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAp6b7v6WcNt
"It's best you go, GD," said Daesung. "And we are all going with you so that you have no reason to escape."1177Please respect copyright.PENANADsoSGDI8OL
"No way," said G-Dragon. "You will have to force me into the shower if I'm leaving for the mall."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAAnp07E446b
"We're your best 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA68a7GLbS4s
friends, so, no hard feelings," said Taeyang with a smirk on his face. 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAd9cPWTxiq7
He addressed the others, "guys, let's take him to the shower."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAPi3OPJMgCI
"Wait! What!" G-Dragon looked horrified as the others came and quickly surrounded him. And there was no way of trying to escape.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAeMQD4bxxJG

Zoey's P.O.V1177Please respect copyright.PENANAZi3Lv5zi8d
I came out of the black 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA8FaYIgEucx
Mercedes as it stopped directly in front of the mall. I quickly put my 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAZTBMBWvhAl
shades on as I walked towards the entrance and I heard screams behind 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAj9dHFFatR2
me. I smiled at the reaction and turned around to see a group of young 1177Please respect copyright.PENANANXj5CEdRLh
teenagers, obviously having a fun time at the mall, giggling and waving 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAcXIOWmZ6sN
at me. I smiled and waved back and they screamed even more. I continued 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAY0rROjj72N
on my way into the mall, always liking the feeling of being recognized 1177Please respect copyright.PENANABX0vKmMuNm
by my fans.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAVXNRXRGhnp
I pulled out my phone from my purse as I went on the escalator and called Jehan.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA2X4s1AQGOh
"I'm guessing you're already here," said Jehan as he picked up the call.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAajOaay9xIm
"Yes. Where are you?" I asked.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAemxPvGVQsE
"I'm at the Rolex store. Just go up the escalator and keep on moving forward. You'll find the store to your right."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAdZp5xix2uf
"Okay."1177Please respect copyright.PENANACPVa5wqsps
"Did you bring what I asked for?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAfMVdiyO9c6
I sighed in irritation. "I'm not that dumb not to bring it."1177Please respect copyright.PENANA4EBwpFm5TI
"I was just asking. As much as you are blonde, I know you're good enough to blackmail me over the teddy bear."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAH2iUHgxMBB
"Well, I'm glad you 1177Please respect copyright.PENANANqtZQj0In4
think I can blackmail you," I said as I reached the top and walked away 1177Please respect copyright.PENANATWbdxijtKp
from the escalator, walking ahead down the wide spaced hall as he had 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAMgsAYf2C5U
instructed. "And for the record, I'm not blonde. I'm actually a whole 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA6FycshU6t4
lot smarter than you think."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAtTCiyp6fOP
"Just get over here," said Jehan, also sounding irritated and cutting the call.1177Please respect copyright.PENANANEMrkkQnvg
"Mr Grumpy is such a 1177Please respect copyright.PENANACFBPLjYPEz
pain in the butt," I muttered as I put my phone away and looked around 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA56qN7C179s
for the Rolex store. It didn't take too long to find it.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAkVPbG5CVGY
When I went into the 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAJ3NsUWb3Uc
fancy looking store showcasing fancy looking watches, I found Jehan by 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAfeblZ1bHt6
the counter, looking down at watches through the glass case.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAELIKQlxf5p
I stood right beside him and looked down at the watches.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA31psMmBHZr
"If I were you, I would go for that one," I said as I pointed at one of the watches.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA8zDy6FCDJk
"I don't need your opinion with anything, Zoey," said Jehan, his emerald green eyes looking at me.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA0YevmI72DP
I shivered. Despite his 1177Please respect copyright.PENANABrq6wXy0Xu
good looks, he had a stare in his eyes that could make you drop dead in 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAjrvcqWeDSL
seconds. I wondered why such a handsome man like him, could be so hard 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAbsmSYrvAXU
to the core. As much as it was scary, he gave me butterflies in my 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA5dV93D8x9t
stomach. Which to me is totally creepy.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAW5vHSU1LMj
"Now, that you're here," said Jehan, as he turned to fully look at me. "I can now get what I want."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAdQYUnY7WMu
"May I ask why you sent this teddy bear to me?" I asked.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAONKnU8T6VT
"Why do you need to 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA0EUqzg0dNA
know?" Jehan asked as he stepped closer. He was too close that I could 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA2eGVZvKCeR
feel his breath on me. I almost trembled by his close presence.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA8yEqDPpaim
"Well, I need to know 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAOfopOHSp1W
what you're up to, don't you think?" I asked, standing my ground. Him 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAxGrnAklfEf
being so close to me almost made my legs turn to jelly.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAWnyLurHO6w
"And tell me, why should1177Please respect copyright.PENANANYeXvJziX0
I tell you?" He leaned in closer. This time he spoke so softly that my 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAGazgoi448y
heart fluttered. With that deep husky voice of his and his French 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA4asQdFPFMF
accent, I was completely drawn to him. And not to mention his musky 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAPthoTmJUtE
cologne, yum. It was just delicious.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAllVfdcRvyP
"I...eh..." I looked him1177Please respect copyright.PENANAMXnWXXwMMd
in the eye and tried to focus but I couldn't. I cleared my throat. 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA2AM9Sa538r
"It's not fair. First, I came with that box from Paris. And then you 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA2CD1iJ7qdo
sent me a teddy which is highly unusual given that you don't look like 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAmwyJ8NH5h3
the kind who would send such a thing."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAPeeI67zqNq
"Oh, really?" Jehan 1177Please respect copyright.PENANASKrbP0NLyy
raised his eyebrow at me. I had to admit, he looked kind of hot when he 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAa7VTrSfghB
did so. "What makes you think I couldn't send such a cute teddy bear?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAbS2oKEcjJn
"I don't know." I 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAjoZ6DMvyhB
shrugged my shoulders. "You just don't seem like the guy who would. And 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAuUUyImAwPk
it was kind of weird if you ask me. But answer my question. What are you1177Please respect copyright.PENANAX6sAitN6bV
up to?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANACjG6PPRNPg
Jehan gave me a smile that made me blush that I had to look down on the floor so that he wouldn't notice.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAypC53vgIcW
"Fine, I'll tell you," said Jehan. "Let's go and have a little something to eat, shall we? We can talk from there."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAi0QR4U5TD9
"Whoa! Wait a minute," I said as I backed away from him, a little surprised. "You're willing to tell me?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAKiC0vZObNz
"What's the matter with that?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANACE0K4xUObx
"I thought you would be hard to convince given that you're so mean."1177Please respect copyright.PENANA4l3y56DQGw
"Don't test my patience,1177Please respect copyright.PENANApbGQKKAwLq
Zoey," said Jehan, his voice getting restless. "Just because I want to 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAnFgkFc79cL
tell you, doesn't mean you can take all this like a joke. Besides, I 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAuSJtS6RTjC
think you deserve to you know."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAw99V25EDo5
"Well, yes, I do."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAowe6lRZPhm
Jehan smirked. "Good. Follow me."1177Please respect copyright.PENANA6l7iPr1TDX

Sam's P.O.V1177Please respect copyright.PENANAIg005slTqj
I could see Zoey from 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA2do5h9saOI
across the hall at the Rolex store. I was looking at clothes right next 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAq9Pt2iYEPJ
to the huge window display so that I could have a clear view of Zoey and1177Please respect copyright.PENANAqTJWmaPJ0b
Derrick's brother. Lee was right behind me facing the opposite 1177Please respect copyright.PENANARupB3I5Fw8
direction also pretending to be looking at clothes.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAy6yq29X2vz
I was entirely grateful 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAdTcm4iq3CA
that the body guards had kept an eye out for Zoey when she came here to 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAADwocLksB8
the mall. They were the ones who told us that she had arrived and had 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAbA8yRiibwR
followed her to the Rolex store. I was just glad that she hadn't noticed1177Please respect copyright.PENANAQZt3LQYLHm
them. We were close by looking for Derrick's brother when the guards 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAkDypD2J3Y7
told us where Zoey was. We decided to go to the store opposite from 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAlnwBwVu83J
where they were and keep an eye on them from now on.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAVjNWgFdA3C
"The man is so handsome," said Lee as she looked out the window. "I still can't believe that he is a bad guy."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAAey5OShTHZ
"Believe me, he is," I said as I looked at a nice beige top on a hanger and then took a brief glance out the window.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAtEM3r5Pozy
"But how did you know 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAHUf0EldQhf
that's Derrick's brother? I mean, you haven't seen him before and that 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAa8brSUs7VZ
photo you showed me never revealed his face."1177Please respect copyright.PENANASCFf34FXv0
"True. It's because he looks so much like Derrick."1177Please respect copyright.PENANABmtkUAhf9g
Lee turned to look at me with her mouth wide open. "For real! Do you mean, like twins?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAi4bu5kXoLg
"Well, ya," I said as I 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAVuUpH6memy
looked at Derrick's brother who was standing so close to Zoey through 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAZHB0wc6WcV
the window. "Maybe they are twins. They look so much alike. Except, 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAbkFMORA31Z
Derrick has blue eyes and short brown curly hair."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAkCLdZNEaxl
Lee turned to the window1177Please respect copyright.PENANA45ThdS1Dhc
and I could tell she was observing Derrick's brother. "If he looks like1177Please respect copyright.PENANACarygS6vie
that, I can easily picture how Derrick looks like."1177Please respect copyright.PENANADN0s4l90gO
"He's handsome too. Looks like it runs in the family."1177Please respect copyright.PENANASJgNGpTaT0
"Tell me about it. Too bad their mindsets are completely different."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAengPpGCcb0
"Derrick did say he and his brother are completely different that they don't easily get along."1177Please respect copyright.PENANA4wCGNYoe2D
"Figures," said Lee as she went back to looking at clothes. "I wonder what he wants that teddy bear for."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAAuTv9DEml5
"I'm also wondering too," I said as I continued to be on high alert.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAF4cCPhV1FR
Then, Zoey and Derrick's brother were walking out of the store. I hit Lee on the shoulder and she looked out the window.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAmBTTrYLxCI
"Come on, let's go," I said and the two of us went out of the store.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAv8yAxgQm5y
We made sure to keep a 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAv27PRk6t9m
reasonable distance between Zoey and Derrick's brother as we followed 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA0hEAKHCMaR
them. Lucky for us, there were a lot of people around, so if either of 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAuXpYfpTjgJ
the two ever had a chance to look behind them, they wouldn't actually 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAiK33W2mblI
see us properly and we could easily pretend to walk away.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAW0IMjcgV3L
They went down the 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAgZT0YuA3SB
escalators and we also followed. They reached the ground floor, took a 1177Please respect copyright.PENANABFXHY3hgv7
corner and went into some fancy looking Chinese restaurant. We stood 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAIUTa4HhpfX
outside waiting at a nearby store to see where they were going to sit.1177Please respect copyright.PENANArhTva2IM1W
They were led by a 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAeccjKvXfB0
smartly dressed waiter to a table in the middle of the restaurant. 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAzMsGgHxVOv
Derrick's brother acting like a gentleman, helped Zoey with her chair 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAjhUMgdXpvq
and they were smiling at each other as though they were friends. I bet 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAQu3gRLjhuM
they did that just to look normal in front of everyone in the 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAtXdJBSN2tE
restaurant.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAxLQYqjPo2F
"What are we going to do now?" Lee asked as she looked at me.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAI1tiZH1fQx
"I don't know. We surely can't stay here forever. We need to get that teddy away from Derrick's brother," I said.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAHW7Mvje3ft
"Why don't I just join them? In that way, I can ruin their plans if I'm around."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAgD5JZleLMH
"That sounds like a good idea, but won't he get suspicious?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAeo81WEvgx0
"I doubt it. But we have to do something. I'm not going to let that teddy bear get away."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAhEFBuEudsp
"Me neither. But what to1177Please respect copyright.PENANAntKUmop8zs
do?" I tapped my chin with my index finger impatiently as I looked 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAyyiaASB9XE
through the restaurant's window at Zoey and Derrick's brother.1177Please respect copyright.PENANANqE1vh7E3t
I felt my phone beep in my purse and I quickly removed it. Seungri was calling.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAnXq7jckmh8
"Hey, Seungri, what's up?" I answered, turning away from the restaurant.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAp7XjnMpmBR
"I wanted to ask, are you still at the mall?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAGkZNc6Rry8
My mind started working. "Yes, I am. What's wrong?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAdY7ENP3yLH
"Nothing. I just wanted to ask. I'm heading there right now and I was hoping if I could join you."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAX84oZrAbxo
Bingo! If Seungri could come here, he might just interrupt Zoey's meeting. And I knew just what to do.1177Please respect copyright.PENANARkeBqzTgVq
"Uh, ya, you can. How far are you from the mall?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANA0fUlmSWISA
"I'll be there in two minutes, I'm almost there."1177Please respect copyright.PENANACaSOkG3IWB
"Perfect. Call me when you get here." I cut the call.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAzUqbRVKct1
"Are you crazy?" Lee looked at me with a surprised look on her face. "Why do you want Seungri here?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAW0edRAo0jG
"Don't worry. Seungri 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAo654fIcnuf
will be perfect for the plan. I'm afraid Derrick's brother will get too 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA9RxAVDD48J
suspicious if you go in there. Besides, Zoey knows you went out with me 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAqA7vVp81QW
and she will know something fishy is going on."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAiXUx4a9G2N
"Well, okay," said Lee as she went back to looking at the restaurant. "Let's just hope it will work."1177Please respect copyright.PENANA23AaFpmymW
"I hope so too."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAsz2r7L4Ino
***1177Please respect copyright.PENANALMqi1iTZCG
Zoey's P.O.V1177Please respect copyright.PENANApUYfHO8hK8
I looked at the menu and1177Please respect copyright.PENANAkkjHWAEOYH
I realised that I wasn't so hungry. Maybe I was just too anxious to 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAoNaTBAGpKh
figure out what Jehan's plans were. I looked at him as he sat across the1177Please respect copyright.PENANAq9FL8a9peR
table, looking at the menu. He must have felt my eyes on him because he1177Please respect copyright.PENANAtGCQGGrF5G
looked up at me.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAUCd4OHPgKa
"Aren't you going to order?" Jehan asked, as he went to looking back at the menu.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAHyVhV63tMq
"No. I realise I'm not that hungry anymore," I said.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAKz8capZFIq
"Why?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAQ96hAkNZO3
I put the menu aside and leaned forward on the table. That caught his attention. He looked at me with an eyebrow raised.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAWE8xLVvlFJ
"I just want to know what you do. And by the looks of it, it's pretty serious."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAY5edI33z9j
"I'm glad you figured that out." Jehan gave me a mocking smile.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAzoAwoRWmob
I growled. "Stop that, will you?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAtnx9ouaVOO
"What?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAh5DLk1BbLz
"Mocking me. And just so you know, it's not funny."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAQFpLAMrAqO
"I'll try not to next 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAUTxYwt61rb
time." He turned to the waiter who had been waiting for our order. Jehan1177Please respect copyright.PENANAwurdVKGDfk
ordered the same meal for the both of us. The waiter left immediately.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAxmhsK3QmHu
"Now, are you going to tell me?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAID7uRENMYn
"Yes, I'll," said Jehan. "I figured you deserve to know. Only if you do one thing."1177Please respect copyright.PENANANLpcKZ7DSd
"Not tell anyone."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAnQWtXTvCMj
Jehan smiled widely this time around. "Exactly."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAsQbe3X5Zxa
"Okay." I was now attentive. "Spill."1177Please respect copyright.PENANArFhcKouhF5
"I smuggle diamonds."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAsEdxWn2GIs
My eyes almost popped out of their sockets. That was sudden. I didn't expect him to be so direct.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAjBRVnhrP6c
"Surprised that I was direct?" Jehan asked as he looked at me giving me goosebumps.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAz057tFmn8K
"Well....ya," I leaned back on my chair still recovering from what he said. "I expected something different."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAifBUZZxBIq
"Like what? Drugs or gun trafficking?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAkLZuDL1XTx
"That's what a lot of bad guys are involved in nowadays. I wasn't expecting that you smuggle diamonds."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAXEszPQLSIF
The waiter came with our1177Please respect copyright.PENANAgfpgRleo7K
appetisers, Chinese dumplings. I have always liked dumplings. I got a 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAg0Ymu8b3ap
pair of chopsticks and put a dumpling in my mouth.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA0T5cSnuVtD
"Yes. I know it's a surprise, but that's what I do. I smuggle in diamonds from country to country."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAtOWx0ylONz
"But you don't look like the kind who would do such things."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAHe49n4zSQi
"Too bad, I am. And there is nothing you can do to change that."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAwqgKTVcFO1
"Oh, don't worry about me," I said raising my hands in surrender. "I wasn't even going to try."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAu9qw8gg0b0
"Good girl," said Jehan, as he smirked. His smirk made me blush and I quickly looked down at my food.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA5dqiqxhRae
"So, the little teddy has diamonds in it?" I asked, putting another dumpling in my mouth.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAGK602NSqSo
"Yes, millions worth of tiny diamonds."1177Please respect copyright.PENANA1Zkx3Z63EI
"Is that why you're so rich?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAjZ1Tet1dnX
"I was born in a rich family. We own a business but I did all this just to become more richer and more powerful."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAG1UQ1hLVU8
"That's being greedy, don't you think?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAvqDeq6mG0s
Jehan gave a little laugh. "That's the whole point. Power is everything."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAjmhGT67jBN
I gulped. He was giving 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA7NrEABytPr
me that evil look of his again. I nodded my head and prayed that I would1177Please respect copyright.PENANAYmZdvhWtpc
manage to get out of this lunch, alive.1177Please respect copyright.PENANALw49tSvjZ7
***1177Please respect copyright.PENANAVnfuSouRcu
Sam's P.O.V1177Please respect copyright.PENANAggTosyeDO7
I was waiting by the 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA56MoX410MI
entrance when I saw Seungri's lamborgini park in the parking lot and 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA5pqrJYO9eS
another car park right next to it. My mouth dropped. Was that Taeyang's 1177Please respect copyright.PENANABxkRoPftZX
car? What was he doing here?1177Please respect copyright.PENANAa9EErBFW0b
Seungri came out of the 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAsEAoIFdNCa
car and Daesung came out of the passenger's seat. Taeyang came out of 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAXkCE0X8bcW
his car and TOP from the passenger's side. Surprisingly, G-Dragon came 1177Please respect copyright.PENANADu7R8Q7TCv
out of the back seat of Taeyang's car. I felt something in me break when1177Please respect copyright.PENANAWTnk0v8Qws
I saw G-Dragon and Daesung. The whole BigBang was here! This wasn't 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAVcvjjYH5xl
what I was expecting.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAnfCAaQjVIa
I trembled. What am I 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAMaHET0vPKC
going to do now? I was only expecting Seungri here. This was just 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA5qhqg16DG0
fantastic! I had to think of something quick or else Zoey was going to 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAqJ5Npv04Nu
give Mr Teddy away.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAqG2JAjUM25
"Hey, Sam," said Seungri as they came to the entrance. "Were you waiting for me?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAz5vgRNAy3n
"I...eh..." I looked at Seungri, then at the others. What to do! What to do!1177Please respect copyright.PENANAUA3wYxdG35
"Sam, are you okay?" Taeyang asked. "You don't look at all happy to see us."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAuqWVQuCYin
"I, no....I," I didn't 1177Please respect copyright.PENANALHjuOG6ZdA
know what to say. Now that all five of them were here, this was going to1177Please respect copyright.PENANATkieoOedlc
get a lot more complicated. What the hell was I going to do?1177Please respect copyright.PENANAJ4acRb4ChQ
"I was only expecting 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAPdeedduhKq
Seungri here so I'm a little surprised," I answered as I looked at 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAcTBmGinNoA
Daesung and G-Dragon who stood there staring at me. It felt so weird 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAFSJh3HrzLp
seeing the two of them together.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAQGxCuQxiiJ
"We could leave if you want us to," said G-Dragon, who looked more than happy to do so.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAySsjaarSJO
"No, no one is going anywhere," said TOP.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAyWZVLLQdN5
"Sorry if we surprised you like this, Sam," said Daesung. "But, you and G-Dragon need to talk."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAQqgc8RTqF0
"Talk?" I raised an eyebrow looking confused. When I looked at G-Dragon, it finally came to me. "Oh, I get it."1177Please respect copyright.PENANARC24FdPl4v
"So, will it be okay to leave you two alone?" Taeyang asked.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAtW6uVY1f4b
"Ummm, we can talk later," I said quickly turning to look at Taeyang. "Right now, I need your help."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAWypxgOLfez
"What's up?" Seungri and Daesung asked at the same time, both looking concerned.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAyqALsMnRdl
"Come with me," I said 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAbepbr0rHCT
as I led the way into the mall, heading towards the Chinese restaurant. 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAWMIHFdfUyD
Next to the shop was a store where Lee was hiding so as to keep an eye 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA6Trb3MDr6O
on Zoey and Derrick's brother.1177Please respect copyright.PENANARiYQH0TsVG
When we reached Lee, she turned around and her face went pale upon seeing the others.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAOPzQ5vppmW
"Okay, it looks like you really weren't looking forward to seeing us," said G-Dragon, looking irritated and folding his arms.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAiLr6UBMzRM
"Hi, guys. You're 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAPSHVseaPaG
right," said Lee. "Sam told me Seungri was coming here. She didn't 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAzCo2F0bgCM
mention that the whole crew would be coming too."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAoclLCDnhCp
"Trust me," I said as I looked at Lee. "I had no idea they were all coming."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAFBMuBWgFTA
"But what's the emergency?" Taeyang asked.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAtkYe49Y1aJ
I could feel Lee's eyes on me and I could tell she was scared of telling them the truth. So, I had to do the talking.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA1ADzNPmoTw
"It's Zoey," I said. "Remember the guy she met at the café and who had also sent that teddy bear?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAML2gg3iw7W
The five BigBang members all nodded their heads.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAjpfuqXcfXY
"Well, if you look into 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA6aaLPKFcKc
that restaurant," I said, pointing at the Chinese restaurant. "Zoey is 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA0IQVEQHt3l
with someone and I'm betting it's the same guy."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAxZAjsMtbgi
The five all turned to 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA2ngIfLXX2q
look through the glass window of the restaurant and they easily spotted 1177Please respect copyright.PENANADLwasPwr8t
Zoey and Derrick's brother. Lee nudged me on my side with her elbow and 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAjJ5cgzNne8
gave me a what-do-you-think-you're-doing look.1177Please respect copyright.PENANApMGNb5yPJw
"Wait, a minute," said TOP. "I've seen that guy before."1177Please respect copyright.PENANArZVJIDt29d
Lee and I turned our attention to TOP and asked at the same time, "you have?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAXQY8XJ8HWC
"Ya, in Paris," answered TOP. "Don't you recognise him too, GD?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANA8DOi7SdCMj
"Yes, I do," said G-Dragon looking through the glass window. "We met him at the fashion show. I'm surprised why he is here."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAvuaLjMVLte
"We were also wondering 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAdrc4cD8Uyh
too," I said. "Lee and I were planning to go in there and talk with 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAdUbFm9HeYI
them, but decided that I would rather not."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAd7382DqO99
"Why?" Daesung asked.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAwcoKpVbgwu
"Well, Zoey seems to be 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAPHoYmNiFYJ
having a good time and I didn't want to bother her with my presence 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAcyNjKqrmzI
since we argued. But then again, I'm so curious about the guy she is 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAtWd2XmTOcw
talking to. So I thought Seungri might help out."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAn1x1f2PJ04
"Aww, so sweet of you to think I could solve that out for you, my little kitty," said Seungri with a smile on his face.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAHt32G0GIop
"Huh? Wait a minute," 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAk68AVwqCOG
said G-Dragon, who had a confused look on his face. As he looked at 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAoJIOir8Uuq
Seungri. "I thought you always called Sam your panda."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAnsgo9ZIGMM
"Well, ya." Seungri shrugged. "She's my little kitty and my panda. Do you have a problem with that?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAgjdalREOKO
"It's a little strange for you to call her your little kitty because I call her that."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAH7DI6P1QIk
Everyone turned to look 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAcqZWfENNwb
at G-Dragon. What was he saying? I was very surprised by all this. And 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAf0n5g9KqS6
my heart was pounding so hard in my chest. Wow. Was G-Dragon jealous or 1177Please respect copyright.PENANATXmPG5v8rg
something? I couldn't help but feel flattered about it.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAilm418HRO2
"Looks like someone is jealous," said TOP, with a mocking smile on his face.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA5CbojYgPDO
Lee giggled. "Tell me about it."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAvW4MFiKio2
"Here you're now 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAi6j4dZSIfu
claiming that you're the one who's supposed to call Sam your little 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA6wkSdM7qZv
kitty when you're still mad at her," said Taeyang.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAOQEJKQ1wuI
"Can we not focus on that now and sort out the problem at hand?" G-Dragon asked avoiding our eyes.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAO7YwTgIixZ
"I'll talk with G-Dragon1177Please respect copyright.PENANAsWqpbRWcJW
later," I said. I turned to look at the restaurant as I felt myself 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA7lM9dh4hkZ
blush. They were almost done with their main meal. I had to do 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAyerIG6KeDP
something, quick.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAzthb9O14ev
"Okay, fine, we will 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAPypWWH4l7J
mock GD later," said Seungri giving G-Dragon a playful smile. "I'll go 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA19Z2rSVORs
into the restaurant and meet the guy."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAvA1J7HGIuX
Yes. Finally. I thought 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAfm3usZULDB
he would never go. After G-Dragon's little jealous showdown, I thought 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAAS7D9KJ3Z5
everything was going to be delayed.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAlPQaNmk2CB
"I'll come with you," said TOP. "I also would like to know who this guy is."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAAOTIqYHKMc
"We will wait out here," said Daesung.1177Please respect copyright.PENANADYdruyTrrN
Seungri and TOP started their way towards the restaurant, while the rest of us just stood there like statues.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA8drG4m47tW
"So, are we going to stay here or what?" G-Dragon asked.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA0MNlm8VIqi
As much as I wanted to 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA5f6P3VeHB6
stay here and see what will go on with the others in the restaurant, I 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAtHaooc3GMx
decided it was time for G-Dragon and I to talk.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAVQZ3YLbRA7

As much as I tried to 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAqN3r9N91ZS
enjoy this meal we were having, I couldn't wait to get out of this place1177Please respect copyright.PENANA0ni9KulOFs
and just go back to the hotel. After my little talk with Jehan, I 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA16INJcmdta
haven't been able to talk again freely. I had been quiet throughout the 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA6SC7T78wsc
whole meal and I bet he also noticed it too.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAjHClpZdKmH
"Have you finally decided to follow table manners or are you tired of talking to me?" Jehan asked.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAJLBVho6GN3
"If by tired, you mean scared, then yes," I said as I finished my noodles on the plate.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA3oTdAbr2xQ
"Scared? Are you really that scared of me?" Jehan had a questioning look on his face.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAElv1uyU4c4
"Well, ya. Do you see the way you look at me sometimes? No, you don't. Silly of me for even asking."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAwBWoCrb8Qn
"Looks like you're getting all worked up for nothing, Zoey." Jehan got a napkin on the table and wiped the corners of his mouth.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAJDHOgKcGCA
"What do you want me to 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAxT1qF4xd52
do? I just found out that you smuggle diamonds, which to me is very 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAdjNt0Y0Eiq
illegal like drugs and gun trafficking. And I'm very scared that there 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAIrfCQc2lf0
are a lot of guns involved because you pointed one at me back in Paris."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAUXSexuLmYl
"Don't blame me. You wanted to know what I was up to."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAZ9ACrVu5rh
"Well, you should have played hard to get. Given that look you give me, I wouldn't even have asked any further."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAbSydrDrJHk
Jehan shook his head and1177Please respect copyright.PENANAGRkNAsU4rP
surprisingly, he chuckled as he leaned back on his chair. "I wonder how1177Please respect copyright.PENANAdwydDReJSG
your group members even put up with you. You're amusing yet so 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAAicsxeW2IY
annoying."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAyAkUxJhVs4
"My group members and I get along just fine despite my drama and the petty fights we have."1177Please respect copyright.PENANA8kPefS5gOM
"Mmm. I see that. Are you up for dessert?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAIl9WzpjF0H
"Do you know what, I don't want dessert. I want to go back to the hotel if you don't mind."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAPfLovwVHXI
"You can leave if you give me the teddy bear," said Jehan as he outstretched his arm and opened his palm.1177Please respect copyright.PENANALdsjJaNOM3
"Wait," I said as I held my purse close with the teddy bear in it. "I need some assurance from you about something."1177Please respect copyright.PENANArPPXQJj63a
Jehan looked rritated and folded his arms. "What?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANA7NzZPju18e
"Tell me this will be the last time you're going to tell me to do anything for you."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAy2BjxWna2m
Jehan looked at me and I could tell that he was studying me. "Why? You don't want to help me out anymore?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAKbXDdRcLi3
"Heck no!" This time, I was a little loud and a few heads in the restaurant looked my way. I lowered my voice. "Sorry."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAKhCIvUnTNQ
Jehan looked unmoved by my reaction, but I could easily tell that in the inside, he was pretty pissed.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAT77C1YIIJT
"Just so you know, this might probably be the last time you will ever see me again," said Jehan in a cool, calm tone.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAQjde3VKQvq
"For real?" I raised an eyebrow, not really believing that he was telling the truth.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA7WDPQL8RzK
"Yes, for real."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAMzFmEn5fxc
"So, you aren't going to come back and threaten me, right?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAhF4b790N8B
"Yes. Maybe we will meet1177Please respect copyright.PENANAh2tgu8inzX
someday in the future. The only reason why I threatened you was so that1177Please respect copyright.PENANAYohLfZNh3m
you could carry those diamonds for me from Paris to Korea."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAJmelIFovEa
"Why? Because we were using a private plane and there was less security?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAZHagddibEg
"I'm impressed. You're actually smart."1177Please respect copyright.PENANA4QRzGvGJaj
"I watch too many movies." I gave him a smile, though I didn't really mean it.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAI4ZReIz2wf
"Figured. So, the teddy, please." Jehan had his arm outstretched again.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAjumBeK6ekA
I took a deep breath. This was it. Once I give him the teddy, it will all be over and I can finally be in peace.1177Please respect copyright.PENANArHN4KtaqzQ
Just as I was about to open my purse and take out the small teddy, a voice I recognised came behind me.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAeMjnJ7oFfK
"Zoey, hey!"1177Please respect copyright.PENANANJB96RvRCU
Seungri? I quickly 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA1Pn5nqabwg
turned around and standing at the door of the restaurant, stood Seungri 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAGJ5GrPeEnA
with TOP beside him. I was so horrified. Oh no! What were they doing 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAMpj8qVXfdg
here?1177Please respect copyright.PENANA5RdrP1cgnk
They came over to our 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA3KOOuMMAcn
table and I still couldn't believe that they were here. I tried to put 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAIF38VG9Lm9
up a smile but so far, I couldn't. I looked over at Jehan who had a grim1177Please respect copyright.PENANApjTzrvM6U3
look on his face. This was not supposed to happen. What were we going 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAupdqRPLByI
to do now?1177Please respect copyright.PENANA3ZEg8GqQ2F
"Hey, Zoey," said TOP. Then he turned to look at Jehan. "Mind if we sit?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANA7HgplzpDW4
"Sure," said Jehan giving TOP a smile. "We met at the fashion show in Paris."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAhzX7jhm9N3
"Ya, we did," said TOP as he sat down and Seungri sat opposite him. "Your name again?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAgq65KbWTsj
"Jehan."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAVULo7mkZCJ
"Nice to meet you," said Seungri. "I'm...."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAi5coRp7CjM
"There is no need for introductions, Seungri," said Jehan. "I already know who you are."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAV0sYngyetg
"Good," said Seungri. "So, what brings you here?"1177Please respect copyright.PENANAwWnO7fni0w
"I just came here to visit. I met Zoey again and decided to have lunch together."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAyPvBYOnHRG
"Oh." Seungri nodded his head.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAEqPmaRFrfG
"Ya," I said as I took a glass of water beside me and drank from the cup.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAkZcZccrVEr
"Weren't you the same guy at the café with Zoey the other day?" TOP asked.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAjTnBpWh52W
I almost spit out the 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAhPeNthF2yi
water in my mouth but I tried not to. I ended up choking instead. The 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA0ZU9zH321n
three men all turned to look at me and I hit my chest as my eyes begun 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAZPMap0uHtX
to water.1177Please respect copyright.PENANANf7SWaVh0Z
"Are you okay, Zoey?" Seungri asked.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAblulLuSPAZ
"Ya, I'm fine," I said. How did they figure out that Jehan was the person I met at the café?1177Please respect copyright.PENANAtlXYzkTg5H
"Yes, Zoey and I met at the café the first day I got here," said Jehan, answering TOP's question.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA7nXSQbhxQz
Jehan looked at me and I1177Please respect copyright.PENANA2fzKiGHVn8
bet he was also wondering how the others could have figured out all 1177Please respect copyright.PENANABq1SyVvbjI
this. I gave him a look that said I had no idea how they did.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA4wHvQRN0Oi
"May I ask what you're 1177Please respect copyright.PENANASznR9aLK4e
doing here?" I asked looking at TOP and then at Seungri. This was 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAkD14tpH3fB
getting frustrating and I didn't want them to be here anymore.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAgNdjfb9qtb
"Oh, we just came here 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAgra00QyFGK
to see if we could shop for a few things," said Seungri. "Then we saw 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAeJe3pKph6S
you as we were walking by and decided to say hi."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAQORrl8L0A3
"Hope we didn't interrupt you with anything," said TOP. "You two seemed to be having a serious conversation."1177Please respect copyright.PENANALyVYuTQUoZ
"No, you didn't," said Jehan.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA7bwnff9qVw
Then a phone rang. It was Jehan's phone. We were all silent at the table as Jehan looked at his phone.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAk9Vdcm5oX6
"I think it's time to leave," said Jehan putting his phone on silent. "I have a business meeting to attend to."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAuyAvSuU9ly
"Okay," I said. "We will meet some other time then before you leave for Paris."1177Please respect copyright.PENANA01bsm2irFJ
"Yes, we will," said 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAJUN8R5wo7T
Jehan as he pulled our his wallet and pulled the cash out to pay for the1177Please respect copyright.PENANANq9QVKOxPV
bill, leaving it on the table. He quickly stood up from his chair.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAoN1ZnEpu1p
"We will stay in touch," he said as he looked at me and then turned to face the others. "It was nice meeting you."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAZDRIjYKSbJ
"You too," said Seungri.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA1ON9lCNzgd
Jehan gave a small smile1177Please respect copyright.PENANAcUgUovZg6H
and swiftly left the restaurant. I wanted to growl in frustration, but 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAzPxIO6hVMp
not in front of Seungri and TOP. When I thought I could finally give the1177Please respect copyright.PENANAPFKG2eaJHy
teddy bear away, these two show up. Why was this happening to me?1177Please respect copyright.PENANA9aMhiEdAkx
"He seemed kind of nice," said Seungri. "Okay, let's go shopping."1177Please respect copyright.PENANAKXn0qYTX9R
"Are you up for it, Zoey?" TOP asked, as he looked at me.1177Please respect copyright.PENANALbF2DsX2qB
"Sounds fun," I said as enthusiastically as I could.1177Please respect copyright.PENANA4CyUm15lYp
"Great, let's go," said Seungri and we all stood up the table and headed out of the restaurant.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAL4uTLYtwOC
I wondered how I was 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAb9x2rMo8CH
going to have fun when I knew what I had come here for hadn't gone as 1177Please respect copyright.PENANAU2dFPsbBSN
planned. And all that still meant that I still had a gun pointed to my 1177Please respect copyright.PENANA9O0jruF4VP
head until I give the teddy bear away.1177Please respect copyright.PENANAw9mWqa7JPN
This was just great!
