I tapped my foot 839Please respect copyright.PENANAyYFMHClVu0
impatiently onto the floor, not because I was waiting for the doors to 839Please respect copyright.PENANAyda68D5On9
open. But because I couldn't figure out what to say when I finally got 839Please respect copyright.PENANAIObnyX5cGu
out. I was scratching my head as I thought of what to do. Was saying 839Please respect copyright.PENANA80UEEj4R3O
"hi" or "how are you" going to help? I wasn't too sure how I was going 839Please respect copyright.PENANAZQ300kd4hH
to start this conversation.839Please respect copyright.PENANAVyr3vFaVUS
And besides, the person I839Please respect copyright.PENANAEouRmKOJ8g
was about to meet, wasn't really expecting me to be here. So I better 839Please respect copyright.PENANA1WRhXgeNEF
had a reasonable explanation for coming, which I already had. Or else, I839Please respect copyright.PENANAVudzsVRRrT
might just kill myself out of embarrassment.839Please respect copyright.PENANAYzPPFmGhmu
There was a small ding 839Please respect copyright.PENANAM3HNngAAop
sound when the elevator stopped. I realised that I had finally arrived. I839Please respect copyright.PENANAmwH0aecvEy
looked towards the doors as they started to slide open. I gulped. I 839Please respect copyright.PENANAMjDxcqiTtM
hope everything was going to go fine like I expected it to.839Please respect copyright.PENANAawWBU9TRj6
When the doors fully 839Please respect copyright.PENANAakVzSVvJCH
opened, I hesitated to walk out. But then, I stepped out quickly before I839Please respect copyright.PENANAKz59WnQqBh
even had the thought of chickening out at the last minute.839Please respect copyright.PENANAUG3Bt4JLgU
"Zoey? What are you doing here?"839Please respect copyright.PENANA1Cqp1Yp1uE
I was staring at 839Please respect copyright.PENANAzNQkcRIfKb
G-Dragon who was standing in the living area of his apartment. He looked839Please respect copyright.PENANAOPRz3A0x4C
a little surprised by my sudden visit and I could see he was a little 839Please respect copyright.PENANArdWP3uZkiG
disappointed too.839Please respect copyright.PENANAhCrWrPTaVs
"Hi, GD," I said as I stood there. "I know you weren't really expecting me here."839Please respect copyright.PENANAK16p6hbkCK
"When I was told a lady had come to see me, I thought it might be Sam," said G-Dragon.839Please respect copyright.PENANA6q4VVQrsjs
"Ya, I know." I was a little nervous as I played with my fingers. "I had to come and talk to you."839Please respect copyright.PENANAbeYnGN0aeg
"Please, do come in."839Please respect copyright.PENANA1U9U0e8357
"Thanks," I said as I walked into the living room and sat on the couch. G-Dragon sat right next to me.839Please respect copyright.PENANAhB02gluWLw
"Do you need anything?" he asked.839Please respect copyright.PENANAnaIKx9JHgc
"No, thanks," I replied. "I'm good."839Please respect copyright.PENANAlKzAyt3Ry1
"How's Sam doing?"839Please respect copyright.PENANAlmKlxtpZHT
"Oh, she's fine," I replied, playing with the strap of my purse on my lap. "Don't you two talk anymore? Like over the phone?"839Please respect copyright.PENANAYMMQedzQTd
"We do, but our 839Please respect copyright.PENANAXkOjvaPv8o
conversations don't last long." G-Dragon looked a little distant when he839Please respect copyright.PENANAcwoIAUISch
said that. And I could tell the thought of Sam had completely taken 839Please respect copyright.PENANAsTHqrgTykf
over his mind.839Please respect copyright.PENANA1QO7bSTy2c
I didn't say anything for a moment as I thought of what to say next.839Please respect copyright.PENANAQq38LGns6o
"I know you feel bad that Sam's been ignoring you lately," I said. "It's so unlike her to do so, trust me."839Please respect copyright.PENANA8Wk3ycTtPi
G-Dragon leaned back on to the couch. "Do you have any idea why?"839Please respect copyright.PENANAKMAuG31cBT
"Since I know her so well, yes. I do."839Please respect copyright.PENANAQw6k0vAl5H
"What is it then? To be honest, I feel like I've done something wrong for her to be ignoring me."839Please respect copyright.PENANAJwLa384fip
"She's not ignoring you, GD."839Please respect copyright.PENANA9y0jBIMMkd
"What is she doing then?839Please respect copyright.PENANABqeFLZa7Qd
It's now been two days since we last had a real conversation. That was 839Please respect copyright.PENANAiEHXgpYYbE
after the issue with Jehan was sorted out at the arts centre."839Please respect copyright.PENANAgKcWo2iw1s
I laughed when I remembered Jehan and his goons being arrested. "I'll never forget that day. It was awesome."839Please respect copyright.PENANAa93HAEJYkl
"Ya. And people can't stop talking about how they loved our performance. And since then, Sam doesn't talk to me anymore."839Please respect copyright.PENANAKoxakm46vY
With that last statement, I realised just how sad G-Dragon was with all this. And that's why I was here.839Please respect copyright.PENANA1rzLEpUomP
I knew Sam had been 839Please respect copyright.PENANAeGBfDERGoj
ignoring G-Dragon the day after the arts center incident. She and I were839Please respect copyright.PENANAp5IFpyhOP6
in the lounge going through social media, right after I came back from 839Please respect copyright.PENANAqdhmRcnq0Q
the police station to give my statement. We kept on receiving messages 839Please respect copyright.PENANAq5R6xz5mai
from fans and family back home because of our stunning performance the 839Please respect copyright.PENANAnNvlig0AF8
night before. When her phone started to ring, she completely ignored the839Please respect copyright.PENANA0bIfYuJ5jX
call. Her phone rang several times that day and it was so unlike her 839Please respect copyright.PENANACBvoBdCHK6
not to answer. When I checked who called, I grew a little worried.839Please respect copyright.PENANAOTCfXTjkFw
The day after, we all 839Please respect copyright.PENANArjpzYp83T8
decided to meet as BigBang and The Toxins, just to hang out. And 839Please respect copyright.PENANAp9dcnC5zAs
surprisingly, Sam wasn't up for it. So she stayed back at the hotel. 839Please respect copyright.PENANAc0UIv4Cjon
Which for me, was so unlike her.839Please respect copyright.PENANAKXAVR8t0nV
"Why do you think she's doing this?" G-Dragon asked.839Please respect copyright.PENANAqj8tkj8pDM
"It's because she doesn't want to get hurt," I replied.839Please respect copyright.PENANAvPuSyHtBBo
"What do you mean?"839Please respect copyright.PENANAi0rTilnluS
I rolled my eyes. One 839Please respect copyright.PENANA1LnbwaHVLi
thing I didn't like, was explaining things to people. But this was 839Please respect copyright.PENANABXonKxuncB
G-Dragon I was talking to, so, I ignored that for a minute.839Please respect copyright.PENANAaAVsKDpe2B
"Sam likes you, a lot," I839Please respect copyright.PENANASsIop7SVRt
said. "And she's one person who doesn't like to get too attached 839Please respect copyright.PENANAhuPcIwYqvR
because she knows that if she does, she's likely to get hurt. And she 839Please respect copyright.PENANAZTySWSB6lx
doesn't want that."839Please respect copyright.PENANA6y49fzbMwY
G-Dragon shrugged his shoulders, waiting for me to continue. "So?"839Please respect copyright.PENANAfRHg6cJj29
"We'll be leaving soon. 839Please respect copyright.PENANApsjMuv4l1L
Well, soon after the music video is released. And trust me, she feels 839Please respect copyright.PENANA9JPSCP0Dkc
awful that we have to go. That's why she's practically ignoring everyone839Please respect copyright.PENANAJ4Y85oiTy5
around her and being so distant."839Please respect copyright.PENANAEs5UZwUB5P
"For a moment, I thought I might have done something wrong."839Please respect copyright.PENANA3sVSrROuqK
"You haven't done 839Please respect copyright.PENANAM8bhJe0QGm
anything. That's just how Sam is. She thinks ignoring you till she 839Please respect copyright.PENANAIqWdXIs4EY
leaves looks like the best solution not to get hurt. But it isn't 839Please respect copyright.PENANA98nroOm0Rt
working." I said that with a smirk.839Please respect copyright.PENANASY5h8zgMKn
"Why do you say that?"839Please respect copyright.PENANAiO6U3tuXe1
"I don't really know for839Please respect copyright.PENANAQgFjD4fh1b
sure. She's been acting real funny lately. But I can tell she misses 839Please respect copyright.PENANAQ2R9hmhBJv
BigBang, especially you. She just doesn't want to admit it."839Please respect copyright.PENANAbc4GhXNPj2
"Ya. The others are really worried about her too."839Please respect copyright.PENANATjjo4lEEwT
"Why don't you just talk839Please respect copyright.PENANAO5p2fC0ftf
to her personally? In that way, you'll be able to open her up. Because 839Please respect copyright.PENANAlBnpQBypyg
right now, she is so closed up like a bud that she isn't even talking to839Please respect copyright.PENANAr1oQZg2Xq3
some of us either."839Please respect copyright.PENANAnhAtM12yNM
"Wait, she isn't talking to you?" G-Dragon asked with an eyebrow raised.839Please respect copyright.PENANAvBvkyCR6Wz
"Not really. She just 839Please respect copyright.PENANASGdo1FJQCB
isn't herself is all I can say. But I bet you talking to her face to 839Please respect copyright.PENANA3GC7iib3pb
face will break that little state she's in."839Please respect copyright.PENANAh80MPwJ8Rg
"I have so much to tell her, I'm afraid I might upset her."839Please respect copyright.PENANA7HGy8xGHzp
"Don't tell me you're going to ask her to be your girlfriend?"839Please respect copyright.PENANAHOcQx08gHI
G-Dragon looked at me and I could tell he was blushing, even when he was trying to hide it by putting up a stoic face.839Please respect copyright.PENANAHusTHeKBmG
"How do you know that?" he asked.839Please respect copyright.PENANApEnMv7EU67
"Is that not obvious? I know that if you ask her to be your girlfriend, she will say no because of us leaving Korea."839Please respect copyright.PENANA5Dzv4Rkbu2
"True. And she was really strong on the fact that we couldn't be together."839Please respect copyright.PENANAOCtECHTesm
"Ya, well, she said that to Daesung, and he understood and respected her wishes. I believe you also have to do the same."839Please respect copyright.PENANAjM1fTs1GCv
"I don't think I want to."839Please respect copyright.PENANAVCrzcm0OE2
"Trust me, GD. If you 839Please respect copyright.PENANAQd95ZIeKKj
really want to be on Sam's good side, you'll do it. Besides, isn't it 839Please respect copyright.PENANA5nlW0EyHgl
that if you love someone, you will let them go?"839Please respect copyright.PENANAUI68iyrkJT
G-Dragon thought for a moment. "I guess you're right, but, I don't think I want to let her go."839Please respect copyright.PENANARIbq2wogSH
"Well, I think you 839Please respect copyright.PENANAZHy7VsGg3P
should. Don't take this the wrong way," I said quickly when G-Dragon 839Please respect copyright.PENANAoZVHnCBGK2
gave me a certain look. "But, if you two were really meant to be 839Please respect copyright.PENANAtkUKCKCI8p
together, then destiny in one way or another will play it's part."839Please respect copyright.PENANAHtnoon0LTW
"You think so?"839Please respect copyright.PENANANHOo2CGMCV
I smiled and nodded. "I 839Please respect copyright.PENANAD52VGw6NCJ
know so. I feel she and you are perfect for each other." I tapped my 839Please respect copyright.PENANArKpyXg7gSG
chin as I looked up at the ceiling. "But then again, there's Daesung, so839Please respect copyright.PENANAodUSMVfWfw
I can't really tell."839Please respect copyright.PENANAcFnXsqlZux
"Are you serious?"839Please respect copyright.PENANAREIpJYtKpm
"I'm joking," I laughed. "Well, I think it's obvious that she likes you."839Please respect copyright.PENANAlPKF6oPLyY
"But she kissed Daesung last time."839Please respect copyright.PENANAXx4l9pXXTq
"Are you really bringing that up now?"839Please respect copyright.PENANAqWY06iMTZv
"Just because I like her so much doesn't mean that I can easily forget that. I don't really care anyway."839Please respect copyright.PENANADVIJ7LXVoK
I smiled when I realised839Please respect copyright.PENANAohAweCv36v
why he said that. He hadn't kissed Sam yet. I didn't want to taunt him 839Please respect copyright.PENANA7RKkyULRQk
so I kept quiet. He was already suffering and I didn't want to make 839Please respect copyright.PENANA6i977cUW9o
things worse. But still, I smiled in my heart, finding it so cute that 839Please respect copyright.PENANAvjSOwxwNqo
he was dying just to kiss Sam. I was also dying inside, feeling the urge839Please respect copyright.PENANAoXduyPoELE
to taunt him so bad.839Please respect copyright.PENANAMgEVmb3m4T
"Well, I still think you should talk to her," I said. "Because I'm tired of the way Sam's been acting."839Please respect copyright.PENANAKKey5oPPjG
"But I'm afraid she might not want to talk to me," said G-Dragon. "Should I go to see her instead?"839Please respect copyright.PENANAddwdZZwuDA
"That will be so much better. Because calling her just to meet won't work."839Please respect copyright.PENANAf0GzOml4Z9
"Okay, let's go to the hotel right now."839Please respect copyright.PENANAfyeE3PPKne
"You want to go now?" I asked, looking a little surprised.839Please respect copyright.PENANA9fqGaJbX2Y
"Well, yes. What's wrong?"839Please respect copyright.PENANAEbF4yjnbdm
"Oh, ummm...." I looked away so that I wouldn't have to look at G-Dragon in the face. "She went to meet up with Derrick today."839Please respect copyright.PENANAkAn151dnYj
"What? Why? She went to meet him and not me?"839Please respect copyright.PENANAX8q4dbFkUX
"Stop acting jealous." I839Please respect copyright.PENANAzIpDCrYLCl
turned to look at him, then looked away again. "That's why I didn't 839Please respect copyright.PENANA86Wf6T9Q6t
want to tell you. She had to meet him since he is leaving for Paris 839Please respect copyright.PENANAcQCxtTITMu
today. Jehan was deported back to France to face trail and he had to 839Please respect copyright.PENANAvohGrcXPYb
leave too. So she had to go and say goodbye."839Please respect copyright.PENANAllaG8zwHi8
"Does she like him?"839Please respect copyright.PENANAoLNFyL26Jf
I smiled and when I 839Please respect copyright.PENANAKN897z7YwX
turned to look at him, it disappeared. "She only likes him as a friend, 839Please respect copyright.PENANAg7sD8tM6ng
don't worry about it. He's really good looking though."839Please respect copyright.PENANAuYYBkVoWvg
"I'm glad he's leaving."839Please respect copyright.PENANAoj6n74nuip
"Why? You're scared that he and Sam might hook up and date? I doubt it. Not when Sam already likes you. So, I'm not worried."839Please respect copyright.PENANA8c14Oucicc
"I've to see her though. I've to give her something."839Please respect copyright.PENANAqowv2kAJ0w
"What is it?" Now I was curious.839Please respect copyright.PENANA1CM5IQqDJY
"It's a present. I planned to give it to her two days ago, but I couldn't."839Please respect copyright.PENANAN3tKI7E7F4
My phone soon started to ring in my purse and when I took it out, it was Sam.839Please respect copyright.PENANAuI1Fs8Wczu
"Sam's calling," I said as I looked at G-Dragon and quickly answered the call.839Please respect copyright.PENANAVSeIxs0SOr
"Hey, Sam," I said as I put the phone to my ear.839Please respect copyright.PENANAM0pi8keRfB
"Hey, I'm heading back to the hotel," said Sam. "Are you still around?"839Please respect copyright.PENANA7PeRGQYCCh
"Ummm, no I'm not. Are you on your way back now?"839Please respect copyright.PENANAxmKvOBMFqO
"Yes. I went to see Derrick off with Christine at the airport and we are on our way back right now."839Please respect copyright.PENANA0j5Zbi14jw
"Alright, then, you'll find me at the hotel."839Please respect copyright.PENANAuEkdtBY7d1
I quickly cut the call and stood up from the couch. G-Dragon was startled by my sudden quick action.839Please respect copyright.PENANAakLnOcx3T6
"GD, let's go," I said as I looked at him.839Please respect copyright.PENANA4zFxWIdasb
"Where?" he asked.839Please respect copyright.PENANAyDeeusgnyW
"To the hotel. We're 839Please respect copyright.PENANAbYf0ikkycB
going to get there before Sam does. So quickly go and get her present. 839Please respect copyright.PENANA4JoeGhiVRq
And whatever it is, I don't want to miss a thing when you give it to 839Please respect copyright.PENANAu0SHnVpBHe
her."839Please respect copyright.PENANAy47sJG9lzY
***839Please respect copyright.PENANABPkDu3aXq4
Sam's P.O.V:839Please respect copyright.PENANANzp2iSy2EP
"Do you think the colour839Please respect copyright.PENANAPRbytU65dv
green is going to match with these shoes?" Christine asked me as I sat 839Please respect copyright.PENANAHX874Gcxtn
next to her, showing me a pair of shoes on her phone.839Please respect copyright.PENANAoykZFEqELU
"Mmm, they will," I said839Please respect copyright.PENANAFPZKfeCwDs
as I took a brief look at the shoes and turned the other way, looking 839Please respect copyright.PENANAnV72UKzosJ
out through the car window. "Just make sure it's army green."839Please respect copyright.PENANAUEOfKwlGaG
"Okay," said Christine as she kept on looking at other different shoes to buy online. "I bet Zoey would love these shoes."839Please respect copyright.PENANAq8XoUAlP9z
"I know she will."839Please respect copyright.PENANAJb7fBpor2r
"Are you okay, Sam?"839Please respect copyright.PENANAUSBZg9QFgQ
"Ya, I am," I replied as I turned to look at her. "Just a little sad."839Please respect copyright.PENANAZTzpRTOHTJ
"You've been like that for a while now. Anything on your mind?"839Please respect copyright.PENANAulHMjmCilS
I thought before I answered, "there is a lot going through my mind. Things that I know I can't change, even if I wanted to."839Please respect copyright.PENANAOINyRGX3o7
"Is it about GD?"839Please respect copyright.PENANAuj7A99X45A
"That and a whole lot more," I said as I gave Christine a small smile. "I'm really going to miss this place when we leave."839Please respect copyright.PENANAUs6LWIIBLN
"Is that why you're acting so distant with all of us?"839Please respect copyright.PENANAeLa027QSVu
I raised an eyebrow and gave Christine a serious look. "I have?"839Please respect copyright.PENANAGPtwDYFIgI
"Pretty much, yes. Yesterday you didn't even want to hang out with us. And you've been ignoring GD's calls and everybody else."839Please respect copyright.PENANAgO3HKX46dV
She was right though. As839Please respect copyright.PENANArlPrYF2oe7
much as I didn't want to admit it, all I was doing right now was to 839Please respect copyright.PENANA1XoiEepO7O
completely detach myself from BigBang and this place. I felt if I did, I839Please respect copyright.PENANAc9Mgo4e9nh
wouldn't get too attached and when its time to leave, I wouldn't feel 839Please respect copyright.PENANAiTaC1xBuET
so bad.839Please respect copyright.PENANAr2VuqfLcbP
I was always like this. 839Please respect copyright.PENANAxacGWxVc82
Not trying to get too attached because it hurts when you finally have to839Please respect copyright.PENANA9GjJe5FAtI
leave behind the people you care about the most. And I really grew 839Please respect copyright.PENANA8a6uRgVcTB
attached to BigBang despite us being so different from one another.839Please respect copyright.PENANAgyn5SFW5gZ
And now that I know we 839Please respect copyright.PENANAaoisX729Cy
might be leaving soon, was killing me. I never knew I would get too 839Please respect copyright.PENANAAOPuCu8d64
attached to this place. But with BigBang and the loving fans, they made 839Please respect copyright.PENANAhKEw1fC5Oj
my stay here feel like home. And I bet the other Toxins felt that way 839Please respect copyright.PENANANam6t45D18
too.839Please respect copyright.PENANAKYEdrGDSjk
"You're right, Christine," I said. "But I can't say that I'm ignoring people. Not in a bad way or anything."839Please respect copyright.PENANAosczRrma79
"You just want to detach yourself because you don't want to get hurt. We know you all too well, Sam."839Please respect copyright.PENANAZolbCZPuqE
I almost burst out laughing. "Ya, you do. I realise that the more I try to ignore them, the worse it is for me."839Please respect copyright.PENANAGuXcoyN1rQ
I looked at Christine who had been looking at me the whole time. "Well, it's about time you admitted it."839Please respect copyright.PENANAA6qt7wxJt6
I leaned back on my seat and looked out of the window staring at the streets of Seoul. I smiled to myself.839Please respect copyright.PENANADOXJwqc9xt
"Maybe I should drop 839Please respect copyright.PENANAUN3OF8353N
this little act of mine and go with the flow. I mean, I'm leaving, but I839Please respect copyright.PENANA3j0rPYyNcl
would rather enjoy my last days here and create more memories, you 839Please respect copyright.PENANAqGDTxKl2Sc
know?"839Please respect copyright.PENANAkU2aoQZTvD
"You've no idea how much839Please respect copyright.PENANAjvXbk1KUH6
I wanted to hear you say that," said Christine as she held my shoulder.839Please respect copyright.PENANAfx2cObzMjh
"Everyone has been so worried about you, they thought you would be 839Please respect copyright.PENANAeiWYF9xP35
ignoring us forever."839Please respect copyright.PENANACNnufzHbt8
"Ha. Even I can't do 839Please respect copyright.PENANAsbR6BV7Mnp
that for that long. Trust me, these last few days I have been dying 839Please respect copyright.PENANARZZOJ4otzG
inside. And I realise how much I miss BigBang."839Please respect copyright.PENANA9cTUD2inPO
"And what about G-Dragon? Don't you miss him?"839Please respect copyright.PENANAQBgfkxlcZ2
I blushed when Christine asked me that. And I felt a wave of guilt flood over me.839Please respect copyright.PENANAotz251wuhF
"I miss him, a lot," I 839Please respect copyright.PENANAmIKftr4n8P
found myself saying, as I thought of G-Dragon. "And I've been dodging 839Please respect copyright.PENANAn6A8GO4MP6
his calls, lately. Only picking up when he calls too much."839Please respect copyright.PENANAnoxiVoU7IG
"You're so mean, Sam," 839Please respect copyright.PENANA6rElxttqtE
said Christine, looking upset as she folded her arms. "You know he loves839Please respect copyright.PENANA6XPHsqFSMh
you and you're treating him like he's done something wrong."839Please respect copyright.PENANAPFlCoANP7b
I blushed when Christine839Please respect copyright.PENANAugG9mNwS1l
said the "L" word. I swore that I even saw the driver of the car look 839Please respect copyright.PENANAVVjkUho6RT
through the rear view mirror and smile at me.839Please respect copyright.PENANAkZPySu0RHj
"Ya, I'm horrible!" I covered my face with my hands. "And he's probably been sick and worried about me."839Please respect copyright.PENANA25APTH8JPc
"Well, obviously. You've to make up for it."839Please respect copyright.PENANAqjUGqXszHx
"I've to make up to a lot of people."839Please respect copyright.PENANAFB4LSuvp9Z
"True."839Please respect copyright.PENANANaSWwXQMla
"Well, when we get to the hotel, I'll try and see what I can do about it."839Please respect copyright.PENANAhZntEUiCVf
"Good," said Christine. "I'm glad to see that you're back to your old self."839Please respect copyright.PENANAUPb15CkurP
"Mmm, I just hope that the guys don't get mad at me after how I have been treating them lately."839Please respect copyright.PENANAxu43bxnuys
"BigBang? No way. And if839Please respect copyright.PENANASNgc1VyRH0
it comes to GD, he will treat this like it was nothing but a phase. I 839Please respect copyright.PENANALLQQsW4bbh
wouldn't be too worried if I were you."839Please respect copyright.PENANAY8o8zaLjRP
I smiled and didn't say a839Please respect copyright.PENANAvX0Bt5p5ea
word. I knew he would never be mad at me no matter what I do. He's 839Please respect copyright.PENANAGC1Rxax3QR
proved that to me so many times before, especially when we never settled839Please respect copyright.PENANAmwYjZmSj8e
our differences during the first few weeks.839Please respect copyright.PENANAO6Dme4FoNq
We arrived at the hotel and Christine and I got out of the car.839Please respect copyright.PENANAvWO05sMClU
"So, are you going to call GD and talk?" Christine asked as we walked into the lobby together.839Please respect copyright.PENANAuwyo2aYCbB
"I have to, don't I? 839Please respect copyright.PENANA5Islrxyotk
Besides, Zoey isn't around, the boys left with Seungri and Daesung to 839Please respect copyright.PENANAkNQQ7ESvzB
attend a video game convention. And Lee and Collins are busy as usual. 839Please respect copyright.PENANAHRwsGzw9o6
So this might be the perfect time to call him and talk."839Please respect copyright.PENANAmBX69PKcIR
"Will you tell him to come here?"839Please respect copyright.PENANAlDDmWAIF15
"Ya. I know I should be making the effort to see him, but I would rather he comes here. In fact, let me call him right now."839Please respect copyright.PENANAab32JMkrhl
As we headed towards the839Please respect copyright.PENANA0jDAy4QXyg
elevator, I took my phone out of my purse and when Christine and I got 839Please respect copyright.PENANAVIHEK4tdJA
in the elevator, I had already dialled his number and had my phone to my839Please respect copyright.PENANAlTjtOhFJFY
ear.839Please respect copyright.PENANAOtzaR0dJAl
His phone was ringing when I pressed the button to our floor and the elevator doors quickly closed in front of us.839Please respect copyright.PENANATGGqNwUEPj
When he finally picked up, he sounded surprised.839Please respect copyright.PENANAZ9Yu3rgsyG
"Sam?"839Please respect copyright.PENANA8bxDpSxNbK
My mouth stayed opened. I839Please respect copyright.PENANAwUFLvFdXl3
didn't know what to say next. How could I tell him I needed him here at839Please respect copyright.PENANA7NlodtFiNH
the hotel right now? After all that's happened these past two days, I 839Please respect copyright.PENANA5s6RPTVdVP
felt a little guilty calling him.839Please respect copyright.PENANAgphJtXABkG
"Sam, are you there?" G-Dragon asked.839Please respect copyright.PENANAIu50cK7AmM
"Hi, Ji Yong," I said, clearing my throat. "Ummm, are you busy today?"839Please respect copyright.PENANACj4Qbm2baL
I looked at Christine who was looking at me.839Please respect copyright.PENANAMPskiJM09P
"No, I'm quite free today," G-Dragon replied. "What is it? Do you want us to meet?"839Please respect copyright.PENANAcmQOGTVaFl
For a moment, I was ready to say, "no, I was just asking." But I went on to say, "yes."839Please respect copyright.PENANALyEL0SL6lg
There was silence at the end of the line and I grew worried. What if he said he didn't want to see me?839Please respect copyright.PENANAfD47r7bYd8
The doors to the 839Please respect copyright.PENANAbnToFQWLGg
elevator stood open and standing right there in the hall was G-Dragon 839Please respect copyright.PENANAqSIz7277jB
with his phone to his ear. My heart raced when I saw him and I felt some839Please respect copyright.PENANAt1NHEwIyuq
sense of relief. Christine who stood beside me gasped when she saw him 839Please respect copyright.PENANAqzBmvky6WJ
waiting for us in the hall. I quickly cut the call and put my phone 839Please respect copyright.PENANAzeIpgBNp4O
away.839Please respect copyright.PENANAXcqbQFf9ZQ
"You're here?" Christine asked him instead of me.839Please respect copyright.PENANA0KxEDIfUsS
"I had to come," said G-Dragon, his eyes had never left mine as he put his phone away. "She and I need to talk."839Please respect copyright.PENANAfxkLFjn10k
Christine stepped out of the elevator and I quickly followed before the doors could close.839Please respect copyright.PENANAA7lTrJh0II
Zoey appeared from the 839Please respect copyright.PENANAvNDuoJW2kn
lounge and I knew right there that G-Dragon was here because she told 839Please respect copyright.PENANAKZvO4POe75
him to come. She gave me a smile when I looked at her, and that 839Please respect copyright.PENANAO6o2LWr6Hx
confirmed everything.839Please respect copyright.PENANAvvCEqwtpHf
"Hey," said Zoey, giving839Please respect copyright.PENANAlIwVjP34DH
me a small wave. "You two need to talk so I figured that G-Dragon 839Please respect copyright.PENANAi2SofZnXbQ
should come here. Hope you aren't mad."839Please respect copyright.PENANAMflTXYDSAG
"No," I quickly shook my839Please respect copyright.PENANAaXqFjN3wtp
head nervously. "No, no. It's fine. I was also planning on meeting up 839Please respect copyright.PENANAte8QvKVJWx
with him, so, its fine." I scratched the back of my head.839Please respect copyright.PENANAil5VwXhRHP
"Ummm," Christine went 839Please respect copyright.PENANAXouA6buHHj
to looking at me and then at G-Dragon, looking confused yet amused by 839Please respect copyright.PENANAxEMA1dS9RG
all this and wondering what to do next. "I will....I mean, we, Zoey and 839Please respect copyright.PENANAvRUcowZXDr
I, will be in the room if you need us."839Please respect copyright.PENANALBHnV7Hvgo
Christine and Zoey soon 839Please respect copyright.PENANAOKXfSVMzj6
headed for the rooms. I quickly went to the lounge, without taking a 839Please respect copyright.PENANAh6z3zABZdT
look at G-Dragon. I could hear G-Dragon coming right behind me and when I839Please respect copyright.PENANAvVCPaIdegI
stopped to stand in the middle of the room, I took a deep breath, 839Please respect copyright.PENANAJz3F2ndicC
trying to calm myself down.839Please respect copyright.PENANA5bVzDyjyRE
"I'm glad, you wanted to talk," said G-Dragon. "Because there is so much I need to....."839Please respect copyright.PENANAibxr2UY1vO
I quickly cut him short 839Please respect copyright.PENANAxTEiWmwZzc
when I turned around and the next thing I knew, I had my arms wrapped 839Please respect copyright.PENANAz8soQnHeJO
around him in a hug. I can't really tell how all of that happened. It 839Please respect copyright.PENANAnGKq9fT1pZ
felt like an immediate impulse.839Please respect copyright.PENANAeUS3vr1fnL
"I missed you too," said G-Dragon as he also wrapped his arms around me.839Please respect copyright.PENANA4fhUXbQp7f
It felt like we had 839Please respect copyright.PENANANZIYfXz6ll
stayed like that in each other's arm for a while. I wanted to say like 839Please respect copyright.PENANAPN15IHCB0L
this forever, but I knew all that was too good to be true. But I knew I 839Please respect copyright.PENANAJJzA0PneG1
was never going to regret doing it now because I never know when we will839Please respect copyright.PENANAkzAXN5oRtU
ever do so again.839Please respect copyright.PENANAzerS4cGgzD
"I'm sorry," I said as I pulled away from him and looked at him.839Please respect copyright.PENANA8lMslRDxG8
"You have a lot of 839Please respect copyright.PENANASI29a0UQkf
explaining to do, my little kitty," said G-Dragon as he held my chin. He839Please respect copyright.PENANAfGyX1uY43u
was smiling at me and my heart was beating so fast and I was blushing 839Please respect copyright.PENANAQnzBMBz2aZ
like crazy.839Please respect copyright.PENANAn1zz9f7R6r
"I know, I'm sorry. It's just that, I've been such a jerk ignoring you like that. It's that I didn't want to get...."839Please respect copyright.PENANANJw8p4zba5
"...hurt." G-Dragon finished the sentence before I could. "Zoey told me."839Please respect copyright.PENANA9VLvPZ2fEp
"I'm surprised that she brought you here." I had my eyebrow raised.839Please respect copyright.PENANAHvTSpOeAI1
"Well, she noticed that you were a bit off these past two days. I was a little surprised myself when she came to see me."839Please respect copyright.PENANAVoUnmmboND
I smiled. "I'm glad you came. And I'm really sorry for my awful behaviour. I should apologise to the others too."839Please respect copyright.PENANAExrqPXLZkn
"I'm not mad at you and you don't need to apologise for anything, Sam. I completely understand you."839Please respect copyright.PENANAzclcXTsmlq
I looked down at my feet839Please respect copyright.PENANABF5xwaWUOa
and moved them here and there. I was feeling embarrassed. "You were 839Please respect copyright.PENANAdThGXRJnRS
never mad at me, weren't you?" I asked.839Please respect copyright.PENANAtTjKiYrvwi
"No. For some reason I can never stay mad at you for anything."839Please respect copyright.PENANA7uvuoAOjx0
"I'm guessing we have a lot to talk about. Why don't we sit down?" I was still looking down at the floor.839Please respect copyright.PENANAljEy0wRKDD
"Sure."839Please respect copyright.PENANApJ0qqlUCtQ
We went to sit on the 839Please respect copyright.PENANAoPWfeJC1Eo
couch, facing each other. I tucked a strand of my hair behind my ear, 839Please respect copyright.PENANADIjJrMQCWB
wondering where to start. We sat in silence, not saying a word for a 839Please respect copyright.PENANAH4jfYIqgbf
while.839Please respect copyright.PENANAFQu1Lbn51N
"Aren't you going to say anything?" G-Dragon asked.839Please respect copyright.PENANAG6BLo2ZJXx
"What's left to say?" I asked as I looked at him and shrugged my shoulders. "I can keep apologising if you want me to."839Please respect copyright.PENANAkTjfAlEERp
"I want to know what's on your mind."839Please respect copyright.PENANAbV7JQM72eu
"I thought Zoey already told you."839Please respect copyright.PENANAvYlDdAiYVp
"I want to hear your version."839Please respect copyright.PENANAv97YtRUUXL
I raised an eyebrow. 839Please respect copyright.PENANA4URnzXvku0
There were some things I didn't like to explain to people, but G-Dragon 839Please respect copyright.PENANAJEkjNWHzsG
deserved to know what was in my mind at the moment and how I felt.839Please respect copyright.PENANAg9xewNlMAQ
"I'm scared." I looked 839Please respect copyright.PENANAaTnImSsYOq
down at my fingers on my lap. "I'm scared of losing and leaving all this839Please respect copyright.PENANAybnvJnmu3R
behind. Since I came here, I only thought, I would come here, do the 839Please respect copyright.PENANAckhCiMpNb3
collaboration with you guys and leave. But a lot more happened. Quite 839Please respect copyright.PENANAbgkJCDZpKC
out of the ordinary, actually. First off, you and I had some unsettling 839Please respect copyright.PENANAcoRVI52I5X
differences."839Please respect copyright.PENANADuJVtA05JY
G-Dragon chuckled. "Don't remind me," he said.839Please respect copyright.PENANAHDSviRiSoq
"Then came Zoey and her issue with Jehan. Which, thank God, was all sorted out."839Please respect copyright.PENANAB2uFRcClom
"And it was all thanks to you," said G-Dragon as I looked up at him and he smiled.839Please respect copyright.PENANA6I3KVvdgyz
"And after all that, 839Please respect copyright.PENANAA9aqL2KReQ
we'll be leaving soon after the music video is released. I know it will 839Please respect copyright.PENANANnIbrNU0Ui
take a while, but each day that passes by, I feel we might just leave 839Please respect copyright.PENANAP1ZDwbKJ8H
tomorrow. That's why I've been avoiding you guys so much. Because, I'm 839Please respect copyright.PENANAbtfbw2GwUS
trying to detach myself from all that's happened and the people around 839Please respect copyright.PENANApTaOJFN8I1
me. But that's only making me feel even more miserable."839Please respect copyright.PENANAOpdMynAbRm
"I understand you, Sam. 839Please respect copyright.PENANAAd4FtyaCZ4
Leaving people you care about behind hurts. But with all the memories we839Please respect copyright.PENANAi9s3SG1wmA
have of each other, I don't think you'll ever feel we're apart."839Please respect copyright.PENANAT8MQVpYUXG
"You're right. I figured that on my way back. And I think it's time I just enjoy my last days here."839Please respect copyright.PENANAyX9i12KpIp
"I'm glad," said G-Dragon as he came a little closer. "There is also something you and I should talk about."839Please respect copyright.PENANAhIM248lr3d
I gave him a questioning look. "What else is there to talk about apart from my unusual behaviour?"839Please respect copyright.PENANA5BD6TVs1bu
"You and me."839Please respect copyright.PENANA0tHoAxcBja
My eyes grew wide and my sudden surprise soon turned to sudden frustration.839Please respect copyright.PENANAGaUQt5FvDo
"Please, not that!" I shook my head, feeling uncomfortable. "I don't want to talk about it."839Please respect copyright.PENANASPa9kKA0Jh
For whatever reason, G-Dragon didn't take my reaction seriously and just laughed. I turned to look at him and I was startled.839Please respect copyright.PENANAXcdQ6TjtjW
"Now I see why you've been specifically avoiding me," said G-Dragon. "It's because of us, isn't it?"839Please respect copyright.PENANAxgEMzdZA88
I sighed as I gave in. 839Please respect copyright.PENANAeXelYHRiBd
"True. It hurts to know that you and I can never be....you know." I 839Please respect copyright.PENANAGyjEqV5CG5
hesitated to say the word. But I carried on anyway. "I'm still going to 839Please respect copyright.PENANAgpdLnRBIzw
stand my ground on this one. And I'm just hoping you won't be stubborn 839Please respect copyright.PENANAOIEmMmBBeO
enough to disagree with me like you have always done."839Please respect copyright.PENANAlXYHWTKT3Z
"I completely agree with you, Sam."839Please respect copyright.PENANAZsAA2Y4rgR
"Huh?" I was confused. "Did you just say you agree with me?"839Please respect copyright.PENANA5ju6EPjDri
"You heard right. I know I've disagreed with you on that part, but I'm finally going to give in and let all of this slide."839Please respect copyright.PENANAfBTRF7Xbq0
Out of nowhere, a smile 839Please respect copyright.PENANADkfre2WPqx
appeared on my face and my heart felt overjoyed. But there was still 839Please respect copyright.PENANANddZAYTejd
that sinking feeling in me. And I knew it was because of the fact that 839Please respect copyright.PENANAqSlRbVpFkE
he and I had finally agreed to be friends and nothing else.839Please respect copyright.PENANA2uHA1g8tJi
But maybe it was best for things to be this way. We were never meant to be from a long shot.839Please respect copyright.PENANAvgF7o1LD0e
"Hearing you say that feels like a surprise," I said.839Please respect copyright.PENANA5XhzWcFQjy
"I also can't believe 839Please respect copyright.PENANAmbElIiM4Gy
that I'm saying this either. But, if fate wants us to be together, then 839Please respect copyright.PENANAtoFPnfPtb6
it will play its part, wouldn't it?"839Please respect copyright.PENANALVBxPaSkRs
I slowly nodded my head. "You're right. Zoey convinced you to all this, didn't she?"839Please respect copyright.PENANA3AhS8u9C2h
G-Dragon raised an eyebrow. "How do you know that?"839Please respect copyright.PENANAEMLJ6qTYmn
I smirked. "I could tell when my best friend is trying to help out. That's another reason she came to see you, I bet."839Please respect copyright.PENANAzHVwfK1Rp9
"Looks you're really good at figuring things out. And I never knew Zoey could give such great advice."839Please respect copyright.PENANAY1uyZPctyG
"She's a ninety percent of crazy and a ten percent of sensible. That shows she rarely gives good advice to anyone."839Please respect copyright.PENANAxg0W70dS8F
"Hey! I heard that!" came Zoey's voice coming from the room.839Please respect copyright.PENANAsBajaVjUND
I looked up at the ceiling and gave a little laugh. "Making fun of Zoey never gets old."839Please respect copyright.PENANAyOxzHoexkA
"Ya, but she isn't that bad either," said G-Dragon.839Please respect copyright.PENANAsHTyfXC8HS
"Awww! Thanks, Ji Yong!" came Zoey again.839Please respect copyright.PENANAcksJpzpbLG
"Can you please you step away from that door? We're having a conversation here," I called out to her.839Please respect copyright.PENANAD3WeACUnIn
"Fine! That's why you're no fun!"839Please respect copyright.PENANASX06y6GDrO
"Yet, I wonder she stuck with me in the first place," I muttered, playfully rolling my eyes.839Please respect copyright.PENANA1ZgaEXB6RY
"Oh, Sam," said G-Dragon. "Do you remember I had something for you? I was planning to give it to you two days ago."839Please respect copyright.PENANAsE4roZCikq
"Oh, ya, I remember. Do you have it here with you?"839Please respect copyright.PENANAkP9sSh3jC9
G-Dragon had his hand 839Please respect copyright.PENANATBt3EA3sfY
behind him and he soon brought out a black fancy looking jewellery box. I839Please respect copyright.PENANAUr0xhhutKU
could tell there was a necklace in there. But what kind sent me 839Please respect copyright.PENANAn74L49nulf
thinking.839Please respect copyright.PENANAvQDQWsloMJ
"You got me a necklace?" I asked as I looked up at him.839Please respect copyright.PENANA63NF80R6th
"Yes. I bought it the 839Please respect copyright.PENANA9ONOquPQP9
time I went to Paris with Zoey and the others. Zoey was planning to give839Please respect copyright.PENANAlWW5Xk97eg
it you, but I took it from her and wanted to give it to you later on."839Please respect copyright.PENANAKmx7Kei7TZ
"Ha! I knew you got that necklace, GD! How could you!" came Zoey's voice for the room.839Please respect copyright.PENANAAtS27AAUZ8
"Quiet down!" came Christine's voice. "You're ruining everything!"839Please respect copyright.PENANAbUMQ0tXqGg
"Sorry! Carry on! Pretend I never said all that!"839Please respect copyright.PENANAzKFgNSUvUf
"Anyway," said G-Dragon, trying to put all that Zoey had said behind him, "it's yours."839Please respect copyright.PENANAXWo9YQluLG
I took the box from him 839Please respect copyright.PENANALroffHveFy
and when I opened it, what I found inside wasn't what a could call a 839Please respect copyright.PENANAf9z6zs7nUF
necklace. It was a pendant. A silver pendant with a music note studded 839Please respect copyright.PENANAmV6Mow6RGH
with real tiny diamonds.839Please respect copyright.PENANAkyZ7NGMedS
I was stunned at first as I looked at the beauty of the pendant. I took the small music note in my fingers and looked at it.839Please respect copyright.PENANACMydlgJCrP
"Wow, it's so pretty," I839Please respect copyright.PENANAGSJuFJiGH2
said, looking at it with so much awe and wonder. "I've always wanted to839Please respect copyright.PENANAX778LQa54Z
get this kind of a pendant. It's just never crossed my mind to buy one 839Please respect copyright.PENANAQ7PgTesMyn
on my own. I'm always so forgetful of the little things I truly want."839Please respect copyright.PENANAfKw1kWEsE0
"Just so you know, Sam, I picked that for you!" came Zoey.839Please respect copyright.PENANAyziyH1nuC5
"Be honest, Zoey!" G-Dragon called out to her.839Please respect copyright.PENANANL3aGlI3nF
Zoey sighed loudly. "Fine. Lover boy picked it for you and I agreed because you've always wanted one of those."839Please respect copyright.PENANAR1NT9T2aae
"Well, I've to say, you really guessed right on one of the things I really wanted," I said as I looked at G-Dragon.839Please respect copyright.PENANAFc3EUuNxzp
"I had a strong feeling you would like it," said G-Dragon. "I'm glad I was right."839Please respect copyright.PENANA5upZiDnX8G
"Will you help me put it on?"839Please respect copyright.PENANAgERcUubzuN
Christine and Zoey squealed and giggled with glee. I for one, was very annoyed.839Please respect copyright.PENANApESMgr3jIQ
"Don't mind them," said G-Dragon as he smiled. "Let me."839Please respect copyright.PENANAugnQDLCebO
He took the pendant and I839Please respect copyright.PENANAgE84HfYxhm
turned to face the other way, my back facing him. I lifted my hair off 839Please respect copyright.PENANA9eD3pQg6Qc
my back and the pendant soon came around and landed on my chest. 839Please respect copyright.PENANA35OhIg5zQq
G-Dragon fixed the silver string behind my neck and when he was done, I 839Please respect copyright.PENANAY0cmRtv7IM
put my hair back down.839Please respect copyright.PENANAeiBA4zhY11
"Thank you so much," I said as I faced him again. "It's really lovely."839Please respect copyright.PENANAFsNn6ovJwh
"I know, it's gorgeous,"839Please respect copyright.PENANAKLtTjupVuz
he said as he took the music note hanging on the silver neckline and 839Please respect copyright.PENANAtwFc3UI8dn
looked at it. "Music has always been your driving passion, Sam. That's 839Please respect copyright.PENANAGRfY8T5Ohk
why I got it for you. And with this, I hope you will always remember me 839Please respect copyright.PENANAhmmH2L3ejz
like a musical melody that you can never get tired of listening to and 839Please respect copyright.PENANAFIFtmgtBeI
you will listen to it forever. Like a symphony."839Please respect copyright.PENANAXF9K3GqeWw
"You will always be my symphony, GD," I said as I held his cheek and then, the unthinkable happened.839Please respect copyright.PENANAl0CRsCmyMo
I brought my lips close 839Please respect copyright.PENANAkN7zYs2gQ4
to his and I kissed him. He immediately responded and opened his mouth 839Please respect copyright.PENANAC0zzsUIUtd
to take me in. I had to admit, the kiss sent me to a whole new world and839Please respect copyright.PENANAqftCISa9qe
there was this driving passion that I never wanted to ever be 839Please respect copyright.PENANAZ0daq1td0j
extinguished. My heart beat so fast and my insides tingled by the sudden839Please respect copyright.PENANA52RR38gMac
rush of ecstacy. G-Dragon had pulled me closer to him and I wrapped my 839Please respect copyright.PENANAZDWBo4xlsL
arms around his neck not willingly to let go.839Please respect copyright.PENANAf6ZfYI8LcE
We broke away from each other and I felt starry-eyed by all of this. And I blushed like hell. Did I really do that?839Please respect copyright.PENANAqoygRocCas
"Wow," said G-Dragon as 839Please respect copyright.PENANA2LVRmPRB7o
he looked at me in the eyes and even he himself couldn't believe what 839Please respect copyright.PENANAjgUXc1x4uc
had happened. "Did you really just kiss me?"839Please respect copyright.PENANAUu0EKCdXti
"I don't know." I was confused and I soon felt so embarrassed. "Did I?"839Please respect copyright.PENANAlqrsGcvOTQ
"You did. And I loved it."839Please respect copyright.PENANAPRgBKkDtdn
"Don't say that," I said839Please respect copyright.PENANASrlCAg10sc
as I moved away from him and pulled my hair back from my face. My face 839Please respect copyright.PENANA6V2s5GhUox
was as hot as ever and I felt like splashing water all over myself.839Please respect copyright.PENANAgP5Csq4uBZ
"I'm being really honest839Please respect copyright.PENANAn5Tgn9PN2X
right now. That was so magical, Sam." He moved closer and whispered in 839Please respect copyright.PENANAeyobO6j0dP
my ear. "And I would do it all over again."839Please respect copyright.PENANA8G3wePFZJ6
His voice gave me 839Please respect copyright.PENANA7wF6GnZIf8
butterflies in my tummy and I felt that tingling feeling rush through me839Please respect copyright.PENANAgWC29eUoB3
all over again. I looked at him and by surprise, he wrapped his arms 839Please respect copyright.PENANAvYzVpkRn1w
around me and kissed me. And now, I realised I wanted this more than 839Please respect copyright.PENANAtsdD02NxNx
ever. Him being so close to me. I never wanted to let all of this go.839Please respect copyright.PENANADONWfOQQLL
After we broke away from839Please respect copyright.PENANAEqp3Jlgi9T
each other, I didn't feel that much embarrassed as I did before. If 839Please respect copyright.PENANAkmGUUvu77g
anything, I was still blushing but this time, I felt a certain glow from839Please respect copyright.PENANA3lKTurOBKR
my cheeks.839Please respect copyright.PENANAJsLU2bzG2B
"I never knew you're such a good kisser," said G-Dragon as he bit his lower lip.839Please respect copyright.PENANAhdtIdQ6jms
I was staring at his 839Please respect copyright.PENANAOrVUYYaKKN
lips and I wanted him to kiss me again so bad. But this time, I smiled. I839Please respect copyright.PENANA6ah3DJbIOg
knew he was enticing me to kiss him again, not this time.839Please respect copyright.PENANAyqSjjEPwkO
"Don't push it," I said as I finally stood up from the couch. "This is going to be the last we will ever do this."839Please respect copyright.PENANAruSHpd4lXj
G-Dragon also got up and839Please respect copyright.PENANAjzRiyEb3nW
from behind, he wrapped his arms around me. Gosh! He was killing me 839Please respect copyright.PENANAIErH0IgI9C
inside and he knew it. I couldn't stand it when he was so close to me.839Please respect copyright.PENANAKBnq9w7qpk
"Do we really have to?" 839Please respect copyright.PENANACcmemr9twT
he asked as he whispered in my ear. Again, that tingling feeling. It was839Please respect copyright.PENANA59XJwNCbqi
driving me insane. "Because I loved it so much."839Please respect copyright.PENANAAAa4VpYH4A
"We agreed to be friends and I'm planning to keep it that way."839Please respect copyright.PENANA10Q9zukLjf
"Okay, fine," he said as he dropped his arms around me and I turned to face him. "The queen has spoken."839Please respect copyright.PENANANV4RWWLFVf
"Don't mock me," I warned with a smile.839Please respect copyright.PENANAZiQZPXz7an
"You know it's going to be hard to forget what just happened."839Please respect copyright.PENANAOvfpaGwhlF
"I know. But in one way or another we have to."839Please respect copyright.PENANAGJ0vxmZTnb
"I'll always love you, Sam."839Please respect copyright.PENANAKilvFwy1x8
The whole world seems to839Please respect copyright.PENANAivimLW2MM1
pause when he said those words. I tried to speak but I couldn't make 839Please respect copyright.PENANASuILvxGhn0
the effort of opening my mouth. Why did he say that? Right now, I was 839Please respect copyright.PENANA9fmlXYGAML
stunned.839Please respect copyright.PENANAvSFeQbWOkV
If his plan was to make 839Please respect copyright.PENANAiYipioZnG2
me look like a lifeless statue, it pretty much worked. All he did was 839Please respect copyright.PENANAqpuCwfJRbv
give me that devious smile of his and I just stood there until Christine839Please respect copyright.PENANAW6NP4YCVjO
and Zoey finally showed up.839Please respect copyright.PENANARhQMV9t2mg
"Hey, you two are too quiet," said Zoey, then she looked worried when she stared at me. "Oh, no."839Please respect copyright.PENANAlC4VlEF0JR
"Dang, GD. Don't tell me you used the 'L' word on her," said Christine. She winced.839Please respect copyright.PENANAfC4Ys2VIoz
"I did," he said confidently.839Please respect copyright.PENANAJ7rFnr1j8c
"Sam, Sam, if you hear me, just breathe," said Zoey.839Please respect copyright.PENANAVdZhDnegnA
"I can hear you loud and clear," I said. "I don't go deaf when I'm stunned, you know?"839Please respect copyright.PENANAXiPiIuNGhw

"I should have given you a heads up," said Zoey.839Please respect copyright.PENANAKIF9RJcd2v
"No, it's fine. I'm also sorry. I should have said something in return," I said.839Please respect copyright.PENANA2sCMOD7egY
"No need," he said. "I know you also feel the same way. It's just hard for you to realise it."839Please respect copyright.PENANAn2X5VfyhsU
